Conan wants to lie down but won't let him

"Brother Maori, I remember this. It's true. But what does this prove? The assistant also confirmed this statement before. There's nothing wrong with it, right?"

Inspector Megure also directly confirmed this fact.

"This is very crucial, Inspector Megure!" Conan answered firmly in the voice of Kogoro Mouri.

"The key here is that everyone has confirmed that there is such a thing, which is known to Inspector Megure, Mr. Matsuo, the assistant brother and I. It is not something I made up casually.

It contains evidence proving that Mr. Matsuo is the murderer! What? Are you still confused? Then let me ask it another way!

Inspector Megure, the murderer we just deduced was using a cell phone to talk to Mr. Suwa, deceiving him, and then leading him to stick his head out, causing him to be shot in the head, is that correct?"

"Yes, didn't you just deduce and confirm this?" Inspector Megure was wondering why Kogoro Mouri mentioned this matter again.

"That's right, so this is why the police have not been able to find the person who spoke to Mr. Suwa before his death.

Because the person who made this call is the murderer, and how could the murderer take the initiative to admit this? And based on the conclusion I just deduced.

The murderer used a cell phone call to trick Mr. Suwa into sticking his head out and then shot him. He would be even more afraid to admit the incident. Admitting that he had spoken to Mr. Suwa at this time would be tantamount to admitting his identity as the murderer.

If you don't believe me, we can ask Mr. Matsuo next to us, do you admit that you made this call?"

Conan questioned Matsuo Takashi in the voice of Kogoro Mouri, and was preparing to set a trap.

"Nonsense! You already said that the person who spoke to Suwa last was the murderer. Do you think I would admit it? I wasn't the one who spoke to Suwa at that time. You don't think that by playing a few roundabout words like this, you can trick me into admitting that I called Suwa, right?"

Takashi Matsuo looked at the mysterious Kogoro Mori, and of course it was impossible for him to admit that it was he who made the call. While he remained vigilant, he also felt that Kogoro Mori might have run out of tricks and wanted to deceive him in this way.

"Very good! Mr. Matsuo's answer must have been heard by audiences across the country. In fact, you only made one mistake in this whole case!

You overlooked a tiny detail that became the decisive evidence that you committed this crime—your cell phone!"

When Takashi Matsuo heard that the evidence was his mobile phone, he subconsciously reached for the phone in the inside pocket of his suit jacket on his chest.

"You forgot one thing. There's a dial button on your phone. If you press this button without entering a number, it will automatically call the last number you dialed!"

The voice of Kogoro Mori was like a bolt from the blue for Takashi Matsuo!

(Compared to smartphones that appeared 10 years later, the flip phones and candy-bar phones that appeared around 00 did have such functions and had a certain sense of age!)

"Inspector Megure, please try it!" Kogoro Mouri asked Inspector Megure to do this experiment.

Matsuo Takashi seemed to be frozen in place, as if he was petrified, standing there motionless.

After hearing what Kogoro Mori said, Inspector Megure came directly to Takashi Matsuo, reached into his arms and took out his cell phone.

It was not until this time that Takashi Matsuo finally reacted, but it seemed a little too late. He could only watch Inspector Megure press the dial button!

"It's over!" These two words were the only ones that flashed through Takashi Matsuo's mind.

As Inspector Megure successfully made the call, Michihiko Suwa's cell phone, which was placed in the evidence bag on the table, rang directly.

"Oh my! This phone really dialed Mr. Suwa's phone!" Inspector Megure was basically confirmed when he heard the ringing sound from the table at the same time.

"Mr. Matsuo, I remember asking you specifically before I gave you this evidence, did you know Mr. Suwa's number?

So why, when you use your phone to call the outgoing call record of the previous call, does it connect to Mr. Suwa's number? This is irrefutable evidence that you contacted Mr. Suwa."

Conan threw out this trump card, and Takashi Matsuo was already in a panic, but he still had to struggle desperately.

"No... that's right... but I put my phone on the table before I took the photo. Someone must have used it to call Suwa at that time."

Takashi Matsuo was able to come up with a relatively reasonable lie in such an extremely critical situation, which shows that he has considerable ability.

"Then you're wrong again, it's just a coincidence! Because in the previous show, I used your phone to make a call!

If you haven't used your mobile phone to make any calls since then, the replay should have gone to the proprietress of the hotel I dialed.

But after I called, you put your phone in your jacket pocket. Besides you, who else could use your phone to call Suwa, Mr. Matsuo?"

Under Kogoro Mori's stern questioning, Takashi Matsuo lost all possibility of defense.

"Hehehe~ I still failed. It seems that it was a bad idea for me to ask you to be my special guest today, Mr. Maori!"

Knowing that he had nothing to defend himself, Takashi Matsuo gave up resistance and took the initiative to say that he should not have invited Kogoro Mouri to participate in the show.

"Mr. Matsuo, Mr. Suwa was really given by you..."

This time, the colleagues next to him were also expressing their disbelief. They never expected that it was actually Takashi Matsuo who did it.

"Yes, that program was planned by Michihiko Suwa and me. Why would I want to step down as the host?" Takashi Matsuo had nothing to hide at this point and said unwillingly.

"Wasn't that program planned by Mr. Suwa alone?" This time it was the colleagues' turn to be surprised, because everyone knew that this program was planned by Michihiko Suwa from beginning to end.

"This is what we agreed to at the beginning. I promised to give him all the credit for planning this program, but I had to be the host."

At this time, Matsuo spoke somewhat dejectedly, and paused slightly when talking about the agreement between the two.
