1 Tatsuo Hagizaki accompanied the old man Dairokuro Kato on the northbound train, and got off at Mizunami Station on the Chuo Main Line at 12:04. Arrived at Shiojiri at 11 o'clock in the middle of the night yesterday and stayed there for one night.If you go to Suwa Onsen, you will not be able to catch this bus.Originally promised the old man to take a hot spring bath, he had no choice but to go there when he came back, so he rushed to Ruilang.I got off the train very late last night, and caught the early train today. Although the old man was a little unhappy, he hadn't taken the train for a long time, but he was still in high spirits.He is full of energy, not at all like a 70-year-old man.

They walked out of the ticket gate, and Tamura came up with a big swagger. Hello. The two held out their hands at the same time. Did you see the telegram?Long Xiong immediately asked. I saw it, and I came here after seeing it. Tian Cun was very excited, and when he turned around, there were still three people Long Xiong didn't know standing behind him. They are all from our agency, and belong to the special investigation team. Tamura gave a brief introduction.When he saw the old man behind Long Xiong, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression. Kenkichi Kuroike was born in Haruno Village, Minamisaku County, Shinshu.Long Xiong said.Tamura was even more puzzled.

It's Kenkichi Kuroike's Well, you'll find out later. Long Xiong placed the old man on a chair in the waiting room to rest.Immediately walked up to Tamura and asked: How about it, do you know what medicine Fusaka bought? knew.I rushed to Ise City early yesterday morning, and several people went to investigate separately. Tamura handed the notepad to Longxiong.Zhou Saka purchased a large amount of concentrated sulfuric acid and potassium dichromate. This is an industrial product, which is not used by ordinary people.Buying these two things alone is likely to attract people's attention, so I bought toys, plates, brooms, etc. in addition to cover people's eyes and ears.When he buys things indiscriminately like this, others think he is insane.In fact, it was precisely to make people think he was crazy that he did this.

When Long Xiong said this, Tamura asked again: So what are sulfuric acid and chromium used for? It is used to deal with the hanged corpse by the Qingmu Lake. Tamura and the other three reporters all looked at Longxiong. Let me start with how things ended.The hanged body was Kenkichi Kuroike. What did you say? Tamura opened his eyes wide in shock, as if he didn't believe it at all.He always thought that the corpse was an irrelevant person who was used as a substitute for Kenji Kuroike.Long Xiong, on the other hand, was just the opposite, and immediately concluded that the corpse was Hei Chi himself.No wonder Tamura was dumbfounded.

I'll go back and say it again.Dressed up as a Senuma lawyer and wearing a cuckold, the one who climbed up Mount Orogi was probably Kenkichi Kuroike.At that time, somewhere, the lawyer was forced to eat wild strawberries and weed seeds, and was about to starve to death.In order to create the illusion that the lawyer died on the mountain, they tried to let a third party see the lawyer went up the mountain alive.It was Kenkichi Kuroike who pretended to be a lawyer.The witnesses saw only the color of the garment, not the face of the dead, and they succeeded in doing so.Long Xiong explained his speculations one by one.

Of course, this was manipulated by Funasaka.The lawyer himself was on the verge of death. They probably took advantage of the darkness to transport the lawyer up the mountain in a car on Daping Street where no one passed by, and then threw him to the scene from Kiso Peak.The next day was another typhoon, and the temperature plummeted again. The poor lawyer Senuma finally died on the mountain. What I don't understand is that these things happened a month ago.And the body that turned into white bones, if it was Heichi, should have been dead for more than five months. It is these medicines that can solve this mystery.Long Xiong pointed to the names of the medicines on the notepad and said that if these medicines, concentrated sulfuric acid and potassium dichromate were mixed, they could become a solution with a very strong solubility.Adding glucose can make it reduce and reduce the dissolving power; and adding an appropriate amount of water, the solution will be thinner and can be used for tanning leather.The mixed solution of these two acids alone, commonly known as concentrated chromium sulfuric acid, can dissolve any organic matter when soaked in it.If you fill a bathtub-sized container with this solution and soak the body in it, it will dissolve overnight.

Oh, it was Tamura who covered his mouth with his hand and exclaimed that the hanged corpse turned into bones. Yes, after Kenji Kuroike was killed, he sank into the pool of chromium sulfuric acid.It took about four or five hours.There was still some rotten meat left on the corpse, which looked almost rotten, so they fished it out.Then, rinse off the liquid medicine with water, put it in a sack, and a group of prisoners took it to the train. sack?So, the bag that the old woman said was actually true? right.It can be lifted with one hand, and it is quite light.The weight is only about one-seventh of the original corpse.It doesn't stink after taking the train on this road.For prisoners, nothing could be more convenient.

Long Xiong went on to say: Later, they carried the sack into the mountains and placed the body on the spot.They played some tricks, wrapped the prepared rotten rope around their necks, and hung a piece of it on the branch, as if it was broken and falling.The body was found three days later.After three days, the liquid medicine remaining on the rotten meat had been oxidized with the air, and it was completely rotten.When it was found, the body seemed to be more than half a year old.Even the police doctor's autopsy was actually cheated, so that everyone didn't know the truth. Hearing Longxiong's words, Tamura's red face became as white as paper, and he asked:

But why did they still play tricks and bring a box of electric porcelain bottles? It was to convince someone that a corpse had been brought in a wooden box from Tokitsu. why?who is someone A bitter expression flashed across Long Xiong's face. I'll tell you later. Tamura stared at Tatsuo's face, and asked again: Where did you get the idea for chromium sulfate? Let's talk about this later. All right.Tamura then asked, why was Kenji Kuroike killed? That's because his real name was found out.The principal criminal felt that he was in danger, so he killed him.Make it look like a suicide, so that the police will not continue to investigate and pursue it.

That's what it is! The three reporters have been listening to Long Xiong silently.At this moment, someone came in and told Long Xiong: The detective team in Tokyo is about to disband. Oh, this hits the culprit in his arms.Long Xiong replied. But, do you know where the main culprit is now? Know. After Long Xiong finished speaking, he saw a telephone directory in the public telephone booth in front of the station, so he strode over and quickly flipped through it.After finding a name, he beckoned to Tamura. Come and see. Tian Cun looked over and saw Long Xiong's finger pointing at the word Tsinghua Park among the densely packed phone numbers.

What is Tsinghua Garden? You look at this again. Slide your finger over and point to: Teruji Iwao, Director of Tsinghuaen Psychiatric Hospital. Tamura's eyes widened. Psychiatric hospital.Ah, here he is! However, regardless of Longxiong or Tiancun, both of them were stunned. Teruji Iwao.The business card that Iwao Teruji used to swindle the check, the member's name is Iwao Terusuke. It seems that the dean and the right-wing congressman Iwao are either brothers or relatives. The relationship between Hideaki Funasaka and Senator Iwao clearly appeared in the eyes of the two of them. Long Xiong suddenly felt anxious. Did you report the whole situation to the police?Long Xiong asked Tamura. not yet.Just looking at the telegram, I don't know what's going on. This is not without reason.Long Xiong knew that he was too reckless, he knew it very well in his heart, but others might not understand it.Now, there is no time to lose.He counted the number of people, and there were five people in total, which could always be dealt with. No way, if necessary, let's break in together.Long Xiong made up his mind and said. I now know about Zhou Saka, he is probably living in the mental hospital in Tsinghua Garden.But you said in the telegram that endangering the lives of others, who is the other person?Tamura asked. It's a woman.Long Xiong replied immediately. woman?Tamura looked surprised.which woman?She might not be the proprietress of the Red Mansion Bar, right? In short, go to understand.The most important thing now is to go to the hospital first.Long Xiong shouted.Let's talk about it later. There were no taxis in town, so I decided to walk quickly.Long Xiong went to the waiting room and said to the old man Kato: Old man, let's go see A Yin right away.Hurry up.Unfortunately, there are no cars in town, can you walk? The old man opened his toothless mouth and said with a smile: Hey, although I am getting old, I can work on my two legs in the fields, and I am no worse than the young people in the city.Oh, Ah Yin is in this town? Yes, you go and meet him. The old man hummed and stood up. There was quite a distance from the station to Tsinghua University, and Long Xiong, Tian Cun and the three reporters walked in stride.No wonder the old man dared to boast that when he walked, his legs and feet were indeed quite strong and convenient. Once upon a time, the bridge that Long Xiong walked across is now crossing again.I still remember the row of eaves hidden in the shade of the hills, and it appeared before my eyes at this moment.Longxiong has walked this road, so he is familiar with it, so it is not difficult to find it. Walking into the main entrance, it is the gloomy building.Long Xiong walked ahead and came to the office.He panicked. The ward is on the side.The windows were narrow and fitted with iron grilles.There was no one to be seen outside. Tamura touched Tatsuo: look! He lowered his voice and pointed.Next to the office is the garage, and the rear of the car can be seen. When I went to Ise, I saw this car in the hotel where Funasaka stayed.Tamura said, you mentioned the matter of bringing your own car on the phone two days ago, and I suddenly remembered it.Perhaps it was this car that sent Senuma to Mount Kiso before he starved to death.So, I then called the correspondent of the Ise Communication Group and asked him to go to the hotel to investigate.Guess what?It was said that it was three days before the typhoon, and the car disappeared.Five or six days have not seen the shadow of the car.It is said that the car was driven by Funasaka when he first arrived at the hotel. I'm afraid that's the case.Long Xiong nodded and said, the sulfuric acid jar and concentrated potassium chromate must have been transported here by this car, and now the matter has been clarified. Long Xiong knocked open the door with all his might, and the five of them walked in together with the old man. The porter looked at them in surprise. We want to see Mr. Hideaki Funasaka. As soon as Long Xiong finished speaking, the concierge pretended to be confused and asked: Is it an inpatient? I don't know if it's an inpatient, but that person is here now anyway.As Long Xiong was talking, he suddenly realized that it was wrong to say this, so he changed his words and said: So let's meet Mr. Dean. Your name? Tamura quickly passed the business card from the side and said: We are a newspaper.It won't be long before we ask to see the dean. The porter went in with a famous card. Just as they thought they would be rejected, unexpectedly, a burly man in his fifties, dressed in white, with shining eyes, walked out from the inside.He looked proud and conceited, and Long Xiong could tell at a glance that he was very similar to the Councilor Iwao who had met once.They must be Kunzhong. I am the dean.He glanced at several people. Has Mr. Funasaka come to your courtyard?Whether he is sick and hospitalized, we don't know, but we want to see him.Long Xiong said straight to the point. He didn't come to us.The Dean replied immediately. Maybe it's a different name, but it's the guy you picked him up from the hotel in Ise by car anyway. The dean looked quite embarrassed, his throat moved, and he swallowed a mouthful of saliva. have no idea.I don't remember anything like this ever happening. Anyway, we need to see Mr. Funasaka.Tamura pouted and said loudly. he's not here.The dean glanced at Tian Cun, and his voice was no less loud than that of Tian Cun. should be.Don't hide a man, call him out! not there!You are so unreasonable! he is!We only came when we found out. Absence is absence! exist!not there!The two sides could not stop arguing, and even quarreled.At this time, the door leading to the inside suddenly opened, and a person came out. What are you going to do? The sound resounded through the house.Long Xiong, Tian Cun and the three reporters were all taken aback. Small crew cut, high cheekbones, scowling face.Because of anger, his face was flushed, his brows were furrowed, and his big eyes seemed to be on fire.Wearing a stand-up collar suit, he is majestic, with his hands on his waist and his legs apart, standing at the door. Ah, you are Chief Yamazaki! Tamura called out, and at the same time heard: Oh, isn't this A Yin?It's Ayin, it's Ayin.It makes people miss you. The old man Kato standing behind, opened his toothless mouth, murmured, and walked forward. What, he is A Yin? Tatsuo was startled, staring nervously at Yamazaki's face.Tamura also watched in surprise. So you are Funasaka! At this time, Zhousaka Yingming, who had just revealed his true face on Mount Lushan, ignored the two of them at all, and stared at the old man in astonishment for two or three seconds, his body trembled. Ah Yin, you are really promising.Not seen for more than twenty years. The old man stretched out his hand affectionately, almost touching Fusaka's stand-up collar. Well, you are Mr. Kato, right?Funasaka stared at the old man's face and said. oh you remember meI am also old.Said it was you who wanted to see me, and he brought me here.The old man pointed to Long Xiong and said. Funasaka turned his fiery gaze to Longxiong and asked: who are you?The sound is just as hot. It is the employee of Showa Electric Company who was cheated by you of 30 million yuan. Longxiong stabbed at Zhousaka with sharp eyes.His words were full of hatred that had been accumulated for a long time. Fusaka also stared at Long Xiong's face, as if he wanted to shoot him right through. You are doing well!That's all Fusaka said.He paused and said, Well done!You have found all these things. He was referring to the fact that Longxiong brought the old man Kato here.These words can still show the daring style of the right-wing leader, but the tone of his tone has lost his calm strength, making people feel as if blood and tears are gushing from his throat. Funasaka, surrender yourself!Long Xiong shouted. nonsense!Just to get a check for 30 million yuan?Funasaka said mockingly. Not only that.You ordered your party members to kill Lawyer Senuma and Kenkichi Kuroike.Kenji Kuroike is still your cousin! asshole!Funasaka said fiercely. That's not counting, you still have to kill a woman.She is also in this hospital, hand her over as soon as possible. woman? Don't play dumb!She is Kenkichi's younger sister, alias Uesaki Etsuko. Even these things, you actually found out! Funasaka's voice seemed to burst from the depths of his lungs.At the same time, the car outside was rumbling and stopped abruptly at the door. It's the police force!The dean screamed. Longxiong, Tamura and the others looked back together.A group of people in black hats and uniforms were jumping from the truck to the ground one after another. Why did the police team come here? At this critical moment, they are not allowed to think.Fusaka Hideming and the dean had already fled to the inside, while the rest of the people just tried their best to catch up. Running through the dark corridor, there is a staircase leading to the dark basement.The five chased after Funasaka, who was wearing a stand-up collar.Countless footsteps followed closely behind, and there was an echo.The lunatics in the bars on both sides roared like a mountain roar and a tsunami.The nurse in the white coat cowered in fright. Seeing Funaka rushing into a basement.Long Xiong and Tian Cun knocked open the door, and then heard the sound of water and screaming people.The sound of water stagnates.A stench rushed straight into the nose. Danger! Long Xiong hugged Tamura who slipped and slid over. This is a bathroom with white tiles.In the corner there is a square pool that can accommodate two people, filled with a pool of black water. Wearing a stand-up collar, Funasaka jumped into the black water, writhing and struggling.The black water submerged his body, numerous bubbles came out, and a thick white smoke rose.Foam spewed out around him like sparks. Hideaki Funasaka is melting! Long Xiong stared at the scene.Tamura and the three reporters also stood there, completely silent. Hideaki Funasaka melted in a pool of concentrated chromium sulfuric acid! The foam that spewed up was boiling, and the room was filled with strange and pungent white smoke.Funasaka's clothes are rotting, and so is his body.After a while, the pool of black water soaked in the human body began to turn green.This means that Funasaka Hideaki's body is gradually dissolving. The police officers who arrived afterward were disturbed for a while, but they could do nothing but just stare blankly. 2 The lights around Ginza are brilliant. Longxiong and Tiancun walked side by side on Youdong Street.Pass Sukiyabashi and turn north.At present, there is a lot of construction here, and it looks disorganized.The crowd is constantly flowing on one side, bustling to and fro. The two squeezed out of the chaos and went down to a basement where they could eat good and cheap food. The people from the Tamura newspaper office were frequent customers of this restaurant. You are here.When the waitress saw Tamura, she greeted him with a smile.I heard that Mr. Tamura has had good luck, so congratulations. What, has it all reached your ears?Tamura narrowed his eyes and smiled. It's really amazing to get the Director's Award. How much is the bonus? I don't have much money, and I paid off the debt of Baohao, and there is less than half of it left. Before it's all spent, let's clear the previous account first. nonsense. The two walked into an elegant seat, although the room was small, it was quite exquisite.After delivering the wine and food, Long Xiong sent the cup and asked: Got the director's award? Well, this is the first time I have been in a newspaper office for ten years. Tamura grinned.This time, the Zhousaka case was published as the front page headline and exclusive news, ahead of other newspapers.In Tamura's eyes, the pages of the newspaper were still swaying like a dream. The two clinked glasses with each other. This time it was really protracted. Time has dragged on long enough.Long Xiong echoed and said, at the beginning, the weather was still a bit cold.Before you know it, the summer is coming and the cold is coming, and it is cold again. From the beginning of the check fraud case, it finally developed to such an unexpected ending.When I heard you talk about this case, I never expected that things would develop to this stage.Tamura took a chopstick and put it into his mouth. It's the same for Funasaka.He may not have expected that he would embark on this dead end.Kenkichi Kuroike was too reckless, and in a panic, he killed the people under Lawyer Senuma, which made the matter take a turn for the worse.Hastily kidnapped Lawyer Senuma, and killed him if he couldn't hide.Later, the detective team found out the name of the criminal in the Shinjuku murder case, so they had no choice but to kill his cousin Kenkichi Kuroike.The result is self-defeating and full of flaws. is not that right.Tamura said, when did you find out that Kenkichi was Funasaka's cousin? When I went to Haruno Village in Yatsugatake Mountain for the first time, I checked the transcript of Kenkichi Kuroike's household registration.By the way, you were on a business trip in Kyushu at that time.So I know that Kenji Kuroike has a younger sister and cousin.My cousin's name is Umemura Otoji, born on April 17, 1914, at the age of forty-three.However, at the time I did not think that he was Hideaki Funasaka. Why is the surname different? Because Kuroike Kenkichi's mother is married, Umemura Otoji's father is Kuroike Kenkichi's uncle and inherited the family business, so the surnames are different.I'll understand it when I write it to you. Long Xiong found the notepad and wrote it down on the other paper with a pencil: Umemura Toramatsu Yasuko Umemura (Marry Kuroike Sendaro) Kenkichi Kuroike Sachiko Kuroike Umemura Onji ◇ ◇ Kenji also has a younger sister.Tamura said, why didn't you tell me?He stared closely at Long Xiong's eyes. Because I didn't expect that she was Uesaki Etsuko.Long Xiong replied, I completely excluded Kuroike Kenji's sister from the case. Then how do you know Umemura Otoji is Funasaka Hideaki? From that hanged corpse.It is after knowing that concentrated chromium sulfuric acid can dissolve corpses.The last time I went to Yokoori in Haruno Village, I met people in the village transporting medicine jars to the leather factory.Leather factories use such harsh chemicals.The relationship between the drug and the corpse was associated when I took a bath in a hotel in Shinshu.At that time, a guest came in and saw him soaking in the pool. I was suddenly enlightened and suddenly realized.Our company produces batteries, which use sulfuric acid.Once upon a time, a worker in a subordinate factory was burned by concentrated sulfuric acid.So, I have some common sense about concentrated sulfuric acid.I thought, soaking a person in concentrated sulfuric acid, wouldn't it rot into a pile of bones like the hanged corpse?Put the corpse in a sack and lift it up with a lift of your hand.Thinking of this, all the mysteries in the case were solved.Later, I thought, there is a leather factory in Yokoo, and the local people should know the purpose of concentrated chromium sulfuric acid.And Jianji's cousin, who ran away from the village when he was fifteen or sixteen years old, disappeared in Tokyo. good. You said that Funasaka Hideaki is Korean.After some investigation, he still couldn't figure it out, and his past made people more and more suspicious.I thought about it, and felt that the rumor that he was Korean was probably spread by Hideaki Fusaka himself. Why did he do this? Because Funasaka Hideaki, that is, the environment in which Umemura Otoji grew up, or the environment in which he was born, is full of poor farmers, and the surrounding area is known as a poor place.Mei Cun Yinci couldn't stand being poor, so she left the village.Because of a local stereotype, poverty is always looked down upon. This kind of thinking is wrong. Not really.Long Xiong said that this is a completely wrong concept.A rebellious mentality arose in Umemura Otoji.When it grows up, it becomes revenge against the society that looks down on itself. Makes sense. So he changed his name to Funasaka Hideaki and turned to the right wing.He wants to play a banner among the right wing and stand alone.This man is intelligent and courageous.Unknowingly, he had a party member under his command and became the leader of one side.The plan to retaliate against society has finally taken its first step. Um. However, recently many small right-wing groups have been very tight on money. Long Xiong went on to say that before the war, the funds of right-wing organizations depended on secret subsidies from the military department, which was their biggest god of wealth.After the war, the boss fell, and the emerging right-wing organization had to use illegal means to make money.Just relying on a little donation will not open the scene.Therefore, the right wing after the war has no character, no credibility, intimidation, fraud, false claims, etc., and they will do everything they can.As far as Funasaka is concerned, he colluded with the financier Kitaro Yamasugi, obtained information from Yamasugi, framed companies that issued bills but had no money to discount them, and engaged in bill fraud.Of course, some sweetness is also given to Shan Shan.The money obtained is an important income in the Funaka group.For this reason, he raised more than a dozen henchmen who were willing to work hard for him.Funasaka, also known as Umemura Yinji, and his cousin Kenkichi Kuroike are one of the minions. There is another person, Uesaki Etsuko, who acts as Yamasugi's secretary and makes contact in the middle.But Long Xiong didn't want to talk about this matter.At this time, the waitress brought another jug ​​of wine. The wine was very hot, and Tamura blew on the glass and said: However, he glanced at Long Xiong, you were in the mental hospital, and suddenly you said to Funasaka what he wanted to do to Kuroike Kenkichi's sister, which shocked me.When did you discover this woman? In Tamura's tone, there was a hint of complaint: You really kept it from me. When Funasaka and the others consigned a wooden box of electric porcelain bottles to the Tsukijo Station, pretending to be a dead body, Long Xiong was startled when he said this, and they made a trap, making people think that the person who hanged by the Aoki Lake was Kenkichi Kuroike , Even the police were fooled by them.However, we determined at the time that the body was not Kenkichi Kuroike, and that the police were being deceived, and they were achieving their goal.Three days before the discovery of the body, the wooden boxes containing the electric porcelain bottles were delivered from Tokitsu Station to Tsukiba Station.A few people dressed as electricians took the wooden box and went up the mountain to the scene.This is to suggest to someone that the body has been brought in from elsewhere.To whom?Of course you don't know, because I stayed and didn't leave, I personally went to the scene where the wooden box was thrown away to investigate.The wooden box was thrown in the grass, and it contained broken porcelain pieces.There was no trace of pretending to be a dead person at all.Then I remembered the old woman seeing the sack.I also heard that a young woman came to see the wooden box a few days ago. I see. She first went to the station to inquire about the goods.Obviously to check the wooden box.why?It was to confirm whether the wooden box delivered by Kamigitsu Station really contained the corpse.What is her motive?I think she must be very concerned about Kenji Kuroike.As you can imagine, the hanged body was that of Kenkichi Kuroike.Funasaka planned this in advance and told her.I'm afraid she has been used by their gang.The reason why she wanted to check afterwards was probably because she suspected that the corpse belonged to someone else, or Kenkichi Kuroike himself.I thought so then.Who cares so much about Kenji Kuroike?Then I remembered that it was mentioned in the household registration book that Jianji had a younger sister. Well, what you said was going in circles too much. It sounds like going in circles, but when you think about it, it makes sense.The police found out that the murderer was Kenkichi Kuroike, and Funaka probably decided to kill him.At first, they devised a method of using a dead body as a substitute to find a substitute in an attempt to stop the search with Jianji's suicide.The replacement corpse was going to be stolen from a rural cemetery near Toki City, and then packed into a wooden box and transported to Tsukijo Station.Because the Tokina area is buried, it is easy to steal corpses.In this way, Kenji ostensibly committed suicide, but was actually alive, which is presumably what they planned.Kenkichi himself agreed with this plan, and told his sister Sachiko, who had changed her name and surname, Uesaki Etsuko. It really makes sense.Tamura nodded in agreement and said that he remembered that there was a village called Guandao three miles away from Toki City, where a strange grave-digging case happened.The owner of the tomb has been dead for eight months, but the body has not been stolen.This matter, a small news was posted on the local newspaper. good.That's exactly what Funasaka was after.Although Heichi is a cousin, Funaka is very worried about him.The murder case in Shinjuku was due to his recklessness, who can say what else he would do.And Kenji Kuroike is not a person who is willing to keep himself safe and hide his name.Funasaka's heart is actually to get rid of him.It is estimated that Jianji was killed in the basement of the mental hospital, soaked in the medicine pool that can dissolve everything, and turned into bones within a few minutes.There is no longer any brotherhood between them. Long Xiong continued to say: Just now I said that Funasaka knows the use of concentrated chromium sulfuric acid, but mental hospitals don't need this kind of medicine.And to dissolve a corpse, the dose of medicine is quite large.If the hospital buys it, others will be suspicious.So, after they made up their minds, Funaka started to go crazy.He bought all kinds of things randomly, including the concentrated sulfuric acid they wanted.He pretended to be crazy and had other intentions so that he could live in Tsinghua Garden and prepare to kill Jianji.The mental hospital is isolated from the outside world, which is the most convenient.I didn't know until afterwards that it was their secret lair. Let me interject, how did you discover Tsinghua Garden? Before looking for the whereabouts of Heichi Kenji, I was wandering on Ruilang Street and saw the mental hospital.So I remembered it. The dean is the younger brother of Representative Iwao.I originally thought that Iwao and Funasaka were colluding secretly, asking his younger brother to be in the middle to gain some benefits, but in fact, the opposite happened, the younger brother and Funasaka were in the same group, and the older brother was used instead. Yes.They killed Kuroike Kenkichi, of course they wouldn't tell his sister.He just lied to her that Jianji was temporarily hiding outside to avoid the limelight.Seeing the news of the grave digging in the newspaper, Sachiko thought things were proceeding as planned.I told her in advance that the replacement body was transported from Tokitsu Station to Tsukiba Station as an electric porcelain bottle.However, Sachiko felt that something was a little strange.Probably she asked where Jianji was hiding, but their answer was vague, without specifying the exact location.In this way, Sachiko decided to check on the spot and went to the delivery station Tokitsu to inquire.The wooden box containing the electric porcelain bottle has indeed been sent out.Then I went to the cemetery to check. The tomb was dug open, but the body was safe and sound.So, she went to the freight station to build the yard, and the wooden box had already arrived, but what she saw in the grass at the foot of the mountain was not the empty wooden box after taking out the corpse, but it was filled with broken porcelain pieces from the beginning. .By this time, Sachiko must have understood the truth of the matter. The hanging corpse was not a substitute for his elder brother Kenji, but Kenji himself. It's really not easy for you to reason this far.Tamura said eloquently. As long as you grasp the key to the matter, you can easily solve it. The key is to know that she is Jianji's younger sister? Yes, the rest is due to the deduction of later events. However, just by checking the wooden box, I can deduce that she is Jianji's younger sister, but I don't agree with it.Tian Cun laughed and said, you know her, probably not from the wooden box, maybe there are clues already? Yes, there are already clues.Uesaki Etsuko is often around Kenkichi Kuroike.No matter when Kenji fled to Nagoya on JAL at Haneda Airport, or when he was withdrawing cash at the Mizunami Post Office.But these things, he can't tell Tamura. Why lie to me? Not to lie to you, but I just realized it then.Long Xiong still didn't let go, his face turned red, as if someone had seen through the secrets in his heart. Then you realized that your sister was in danger too, didn't you? Yes.I think Sachiko must confront Funasaka face to face. She was originally dragged into the water by her brother, and she had to be their pawn.With Kenji falling into such an ending, she must blame Funasaka.In this way, her situation is precarious.When we broke into the hospital, she was already under house arrest in a ward with barred windows.They were probably planning to strike at night. But, didn't you realize that she had already written a letter before that, surrendering herself to the detection team? Well, that was surprising.When the police team came, I was startled.However, it came just in time. The concentrated sulfuric acid bath that Funasaka finally committed suicide and jumped into was probably prepared for Sachiko. Exactly.Too dangerous.If it had been a few hours later, her ending would have been the same as that of Funazaka. What happened to Funaka was really shocking.At that moment, it was really horrifying and terrible, and I will never forget it.Although due to professional relations, I have seen many miserable scenes. However, it was unexpected that Yamazaki was Funasaka himself, and I was stunned at the time. Me too.The Funasaka I met in Ise was pretended by his henchmen.The wine glass in Tamura's hand overflowed a little. Thinking about it carefully, Funasaka Hideaki also has his pitiful qualities.Long Xiong said with emotion. you do not say.Tamura also felt the same way. After breaking up with Tamura, Longxiong walked alone in the street.Cross Ginza Street and go straight to the back alley.There are few pedestrians in this area and the lights are dim.Although the building is magnificent, it is as quiet as the suburbs. Everything came to an end, for a long time, as if caught in a whirlwind.After the wind passed, I felt powerless all over. I will go to work in the company tomorrow.Saw the manager yesterday.The newspaper published the whole case, and reported that the first criminal committed suicide, and eight of his accomplices were arrested, including one woman.The manager said that after seeing it, he was very happy and thanked Long Xiong for his hard work.Because Tamura mentioned Tatsuo in the report. However, in Long Xiong's heart, he was not satisfied.Section Chief Guan Ye can rest in peace, and the section chief's wife should also be satisfied.However, Long Xiong still felt melancholy, not without regrets in his heart. His leather shoes rattled. Couples of lovers walked by, arm in arm, leaning on each other.Above the dark high-rise building, there is a starry sky, and the wind is cold.These couples all unexpectedly appeared in front of Long Xiong. Ryuxiong suddenly had an illusion, as if Uesaki Etsuko was walking side by side with him.Her beautiful and fair face, her long and graceful waist, walked beside her.Their footsteps are in unison, and the sound of shoes overlaps.As Long Xiong walked, he tried his best not to make this illusion disappear. By the way, can't this become a fact? Not bad.Maybe it will take a year or so, or longer, maybe soon.No matter what, Long Xiong made up his mind, and after that period, he formally proposed to her.In short, it depends on the timing of her sentence.At this moment, Long Xiong felt a sense of sufficiency rushing to his heart like a tide. He was walking towards the lively place at this time.Changes in mood, even whereabouts have also changed.Pedestrians were crowded and the lights were bright, Long Xiong felt that Uesaki Etsuko was still walking beside him. Suddenly, I walked in front of a Western-style dim sum shop without knowing it.He's been down this alley.Long Xiong walked in, the Red House Bar was closed, and the facade was being redecorated. The boss has changed. The barmaid standing next door answered Long Xiong's question.Long Xiong walked back to the street again.The whirlwind has passed, and the traces are still here. Buildings, trams, cars, pedestrians, all kinds of these all rushed to his eyes.Is what is reflected in his eyes realistic?In fact, the real reality of modern society seems to be far beyond the vast world that can be seen.What our eyes see is nothing but a wall that blocks it all. Long Xiong felt that the people around seemed to be excited, and they were bustling on the street.In fact, maybe he himself was a little excited? Uesaki Etsuko's fair face seemed to be still walking beside him. Long Xiong was so excited that he came up with two lines of poems: Octagonal Gold Pan (Note: An evergreen shrub that blooms in the winter moon, the flower color is white and yellow, and it is an ornamental plant.) The flowers bloom at night, walking together like a dream and a fantasy girl. (full text)
