The Phantom Thief of Heart! But Conan.
Chapter 968 Sisyphus
Hearing what Tang Ze said, Shimizu Reiko, who was sitting opposite him, let out a gentle laugh. Her curly brown hair flew high in the wind blowing in from the car window, and combined with her pretty face, it was very pleasing to the eye.
If you ignore her venomous words.
"Ito Suehiko likes to call himself a perfectionist." Shimizu Reiko propped up her chin and commented on her boyfriend - or ex-boyfriend - in an indifferent tone, "If he had spent some time in class in college, he would have understood that the so-called perfectionism is just a kind of inability to control the loss of communication and safety. It's a pity that he studied psychology. But it's true, if his grades were good enough, he wouldn't have dropped out of college in his junior year."
"You look down on his 'perfection'." Tang Ze, who was sitting opposite her and was held on both sides by tall muscular men with weapons, spoke calmly.
Even though Karasawa has shown his dark side, Soichiro Fukayama and Reiko Shimizu seem to believe that he is not a righteous detective, but a mercenary who will negotiate any business for money. However, they are obviously not reassured until everything is settled.
The so-called dust has settled refers to the time when Ito Suehiko took all the blame for past crimes on himself according to his own plan.
In this way, Soichiro Fukayama could push many things onto him and clear himself through the sacred cutting.
At this stage, it is wise not to have a complete discussion with them, so we naturally need to keep monitoring them.
"Perfection should be an evaluation given by others, not a self-righteous boast. Who says they are perfect?" Shimizu Reiko put her hands on her crossed legs and said sarcastically, "This guy likes to flaunt his love for me, and he believes it to be absolute. He breaks the secular rules for me and stands on the opposite side of the world with me to prove that his love is flawless... He's crazy. I think he only loves himself."
Tang Ze blinked and didn't respond.
You know what, Reiko Shimizu's definition is indeed quite accurate.
"Compared to anything else, whether it's love or not, he places more of a fantasy of a perfect partner in my mind." It seemed that this was a rare opportunity to complain harshly about her ex-boyfriend. Shimizu Reiko didn't need any more questions or guidance from Tang Ze, and she was already talking nonstop, "Because he's a rich young man, and he's never betrayed the way since he was a child, so he can't help but be attracted to me. Rather than saying that he loves me, it's better to say that he loves his own heart, that deep and crazy desire to deviate from the right path..."
"Ah, I understand." Tang Ze snapped his fingers. "He has a romanticized attitude towards suffering that he has not experienced. He thinks that kind of exile model is very romantic, right?"
"Ha, that's about right." Shimizu Reiko rolled her eyes. "I was a little gentle and soft towards him at the beginning, but he was not satisfied. I thought at first that he liked to be more passive and was happy to listen to his commands and control. Later I found out that he was the one with the problem."
Simply put, because I have been a good student for too long, when I entered university, I began to desire independence and individuality and started to like bad women, right?
Tang Ze raised his eyebrows in understanding, and had a slight idea in his mind.
"What about now? His purpose in hiring a detective was indeed to exonerate you. Of course, you can think that he is just arrogant and thinks that the police can't find the truth, so you died unjustly, but he is working hard for you now." Tang Ze thought of this and asked tentatively, "Do you still think so?"
This time, instead of easing up at all, Shimizu Reiko's expression became even gloomier.
"If he doesn't want to find a detective, don't mess around. I've already gotten rid of my past identity, and he's been wanted for a long time. This case should have been closed long ago. He doesn't know the truth, and he doesn't want to believe it, and he's trying to pursue a perfect answer that he imagined and doesn't exist at all... Ito Suehiko is really an idiot."
Tang Ze glanced at Soichiro Miyama who was sitting in the passenger seat in front of him, turned his head silently and said nothing.
Others may think that Shimizu Reiko is just a little too aggressive, but Tang Ze, who knows a lot of information about Super Game, can understand her feelings.
Her relationship with Soichiro Miyama is definitely not just that of a good senior and junior student, their cooperation must also be very deep.
Because in the original plot line, when Shimizu Reiko finally revealed her true identity, she declared to the detective and Ito Suehiko that Miyama was also going to be destroyed, and that she would take over all of the other party's assets and become the ultimate winner.
Regardless of whether the relationship between them is a more ambiguous one between a man and a woman, or a deeper relationship between partners, Reiko Shimizu's status must be quite high in the entire criminal network, to the extent that if Soichiro Fukamiyama falls, she will become the next top leader.
The thing that all managers, whether legal or illegal, are most reluctant to accept is losing control.
Ito Suehiko, who is now in an unstable mental state, is undoubtedly the most out-of-control link in the entire chain.
Thinking about what Reiko Shimizu had just said, Tang Ze rolled his eyes and had an idea.
"Well, it's true that his plan is not perfect at all. But you said he has been trying to pursue perfection..." Tang Ze tilted his head, "You mean, he hopes that the detectives will give the answer that he is the murderer and the police misjudged you as the murderer. This is the perfect answer for him? Why do you think your sentence is too short and you don't enjoy being in jail?"
Shimizu Reiko was amused by his humorous tone. She clapped her hands and laughed for a while before straightening up: "You guessed right. You are indeed a private detective who can satisfy many wealthy people. You have a very high level of understanding."
"...In other words, he thought his robbery plan was perfect at first. The sudden murder of Masaharu Nishio made his plan flawed and imperfect." Tang Ze began to follow the logic she gave and continued, "He killed Masaharu Nishio not simply to silence him, but more to correct this 'imperfection'..."
"But I was the one who killed Nishio Masaharu." Shimizu Reiko straightened her fluffy curly hair and smiled nonchalantly, "This makes him feel imperfect again."
"Oh, so what he wants is a stage centered on him." Tang Ze suddenly realized and raised his voice slightly, "He can commit crimes, but he must be the planner. He can also kill people, but he must be the executioner, the executioner who judges the sinners who caused him to make mistakes... What he can't accept is not that the police misjudged you, what he can't accept is that things are different from what he imagined, and he is just an insignificant supporting role."
"That's a very good summary, Akechi-kun." Shimizu Reiko smiled and twisted away the strands of hair that had blown to her lips, but her eyes were sharp. "But you should stop trying to understand the logic of a madman. It's not good for anyone."
Tang Ze looked at the expression on her face and tactfully swallowed the second half of his sentence.
...And Shimizu Reiko was dissatisfied with not only Ito Suehiko's disobedience and constant accidents and troubles for herself, but also the fact that on the stage imagined and constructed by Ito Suehiko, she, who was the true ruler, had become a symbol, a vassal, an image that symbolized rebellion, individuality and beauty.
From a certain perspective, it is a coincidence that these two people can become a couple.
"...You make sense." In the end, Tang Ze could only say, "I wish you success."

"What does he mean?"
Behind Soichiro Miyama's slowly moving limousine, far away from a traffic light, Hattori Heiji, whose entire head was covered in a motorcycle helmet, asked.
"I just spoke several words out loud, and Akechi either took off his headphones to avoid attracting attention, or he could hear it but couldn't be distracted by Miyama's threat for fear of arousing his suspicion." Hakuba Tan said calmly in the taxi, "He was telling us that Shimizu Reiko is not dead and is in cahoots with Miyama. Ito Suehiko's actions were controlled by her from beginning to end."
"This is very strange. Since she knows what Ito Suehiko is doing..." Hattori Heiji narrowed his eyes and looked straight ahead more focused, fearing that the car would disappear from his sight.
They were most likely setting out to look for Ito Suehiko.
Even if their destination was not here, Goro Akechi might be in danger if he lost track of them and could not get any support.
Hakuba Detective also stared at the license plate in front of him and said in a deep voice: "...The only reason she didn't stop him was that she was waiting for Ito Suehiko to 'get what he wanted' and let the detective give him the answer he wanted, which was that the murderer was him, not Shimizu Reiko."
"As long as a detective does this, this suggestion is likely to be adopted since Detective Mori has already attracted the attention of the police..." Hattori Heiji pursed his lips, his face tense.
Just like Tokizu who ruined the reputation of his colleagues, Kogoro Mori has a very good reputation in the police.
If it was the explanation given by Detective Maori, even if it was somewhat unreasonable, it would definitely be taken into consideration.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In fact, this is most likely the reason why Ito Suehiko first set his sights on Mori Kogoro, and was willing to spend more energy, take more hostages, and offer him the highest price.
In this regard, he is really good, better than all the high school students combined.
"Cunning woman." Hattori Heiji held his breath.
"Ito Suehiko, there's no way I can beat her..." Hakuba sighed.
"Then forget it. They are not good people." Hattori Heiji turned sideways, lowered his center of gravity, and made a beautiful turn. Before the car in front of him could turn and find him in the rearview mirror, he drove into the side alley. "It would be better if the two of them could stay together forever, so as not to harm normal people."
----
"No wonder Ito Suehiko fell in love with her." Turning the pen in her hand, Miyano Akemi pushed what she had written in front of the others, "Does he just like bad women? Shimizu Reiko is the worst of the bad women."
Reiko Shimizu may not be smart enough, but she is really bad.
From this perspective, Ito Suehiko is indeed adhering to his own standards for choosing a partner and can be said to be faithful to one person.
"So, the point is not 'perfection' or 'narcissism' at all." Looking at the shorthand on the paper, Shimabukuro Kimie sighed, "After all, he really thinks he is perfect, and he doesn't think he is narcissistic, so he won't be obsessed with it. Now, we are implicated because we know too much."
The reason why they couldn't find the correct answer after guessing for so long was not because they didn't know Ito Suehiko well enough, but because they knew him too well and directly skipped the previous reasoning steps.
If you always try to image him as Narcissus, falling in love with his own reflection and living in his own imagination, then no matter how hard you think, you will never find the right direction.
However, the real Ito Suehiko is a loser.
Moreover, he is a loser who has failed completely, so he cannot accept his failure and tries to make up for himself.
"What really makes him dissatisfied is 'not perfect enough'." Asai Narimi concluded, "He is like Sisyphus who keeps pushing a stone. The more he wants to push the stone to the top of the mountain, the more he returns to the starting point. It's like he is pursuing a dream that can never be achieved."
"The key words should be something like 'cycle' or 'cannot end'. He couldn't find an answer to his pain, so he chose to build an amusement park and put himself..." Miyano Akemi quickly took over these words and pondered, "Well, if you say Sisyphus... could it be a Möbius strip?"
"I think it depends on his current identity." Asai Narimi shook his head. "In addition to being a criminal, he is also an unsuccessful robber, a frustrated man who 'lost his loved one', a disabled person, and he runs an amusement park. In fact, he can't see or feel the 'dreamland' he has built. That means he actually yearns for..."
"Mobius, the pursuit of perfection, the amusement park, the paralyzed disabled person..." Shimabukuro Kimie muttered to herself for a while and suddenly raised her head.
She was looking at Kenji Hagiwara's screen.
There, through his camera, Noah was faithfully transmitting the images and sounds in front of him back to the car.
The picture shows Kenji Hagiwara, who is waiting under the roller coaster, greeting the children and Ran Mouri who are running out excitedly.
"'It's really fun! The roller coasters here are much more fun than those in amusement parks!'"
"'Yeah, especially when we're on the sea, wow, I feel like I'm going to fall into the sea--!'"
"Roller coaster!" the three said in unison.
