History[]
It seems that he took care of Itsuki when he was just starting out as a freelance writer. He has a reputation for making quality documentaries. He has always acknowledged his skill.
However, he negotiated with Tachibana for money to get the manuscript, but was refused, and when he was kicked out of the room.
After the incident, Tsuzuki cooperated, helped Kindaichi, who was being chased by the police, and hid him in his house, and brought information that a " big time superintendent (Akechi)" was coming from the Metropolitan Police Department to catch him.
In the drama version (Domoto version), for some reason, the reading is changed to "tsuzuku".
He's later revealed to be the culprit of this incident is the "Invisible Enemy".
Itsuki trusted him as an excellent director, but the reason he committed a crime was because of his young daughter, Mizuho, who suffered from severe kidney failure.
Tsuzuki donates one of his own kidneys to treat his kidney failure, but fails due to a hospital error. While receiving outpatient treatment, Mizuho ends up waiting for a donor who is said to be a match for only 1 in 10,000 people other than her relatives. (He was given a gift of condolence money, but there is a depiction of him knocking down an envelope containing a wad of bills while saying, " This is what it is.") In reaction to the loneliness of losing his wife, he devoted himself to work, and his daughter needed a kidney transplant. Tsuzuki feels guilty that he didn't notice until he was in a state where he was in a state of guilt, and a doctor named Maeda appeared in front of him.
Maeda says he will do everything in his power to get a kidney that fits Mizuho, but in exchange, he proposes that he commit a devilish crime to Tsuzuki. It was a smuggling of organs using his title as a TV station director. Although Tsuzuki knew this was unforgivable, he couldn't stop trying to get a kidney that would fit Mizuho. However, a turning point comes to him. Goryu Tachibana discovers Maeda and Tsuzuki's crimes and tries to publish them in a book with his real names. Naturally, Tsuzuki tried to stop him, but his repeated attempts to persuade him failed, and he was enraged by Tachibana's high-handed attitude, who unilaterally called him a "social evil" without asking the circumstances, and impulsively killed him.
After that, when he left Tachibana's room, he didn't go through the ground, but passed through the door that was wide open in advance and crossed to the other bank. There was a closed door on the way, so I pretended to be Tachibana and called Kiku-san to open it. He then left the scene through a wide open door without leaving any footprints .
After killing Tachibana, in order to obtain a manuscript with his name written on it, he pretended to be a collaborator and blamed Kindaichi. Killed one after another so that it could not be traced, and realized the true meaning of the message game when killing Nonaka.
However, because he killed Nonaka, the last person in the message game, he realizes that the names of the victims will ironically appear in the newspapers the next morning in the order in which they were killed . If things continue as they are, the serial murders will become a hot topic as a mysterious case involving Tachibana's code, and the next day the reader will realize the true meaning of the code, and the possibility that someone will find the manuscript will emerge. . Therefore, he had no choice but to go get the manuscript the same day he killed Nonaka.
So, taking advantage of the fact that the security of the villa was lifted because Kindaichi was shot by Akechi, he invaded in the middle of the night. However, the one who was shot was a blank shot that he had arranged with Akechi to deceive the criminal, and it was also read that he would invade that day, so the police, Kenmochi and Nagashima who were waiting for him. He was seized.
Even though he was arrested and his identity was exposed, he still said from the footprints in the mud that Kindaichi was the culprit, and even after his trick of leaving without leaving any traces was exposed, he said, "Even if this is true, anyone, including Kindaichi. It's nothing more than proof that he was able to kill Tachibana."
Even after being shoved with a piece of the lens of the glasses that had fallen at the scene, he said, "I'm not the only one wearing glasses. Even Hariu there." Even if it is pointed out, he insists that he changed it according to his mood, but from the video taken by Ryuji, he was wearing glasses for near-sightedness before the incident, and reading glasses for farsightedness after the incident. turned out, After being asked to switch between two types of glasses with completely different purposes ,he finally came to my senses. He pleaded guilty to all sins.
At the end, he stabbed himself with a knife to transplant his other kidney to Mizuho, and apologized to Hajime for getting involved even though it was unrelated, and said, ``If I can become a part of my daughter's body, I'm not afraid to die. '' he said, taking a deep breath.
Tsuzuki's kidney was safely transplanted to Mizuho by quickly transporting it using a police helicopter under the direction of Akechi, who understood his determination.
