Chapter 7 Part Six: The Puzzling Contradiction

However, that pull also had an effect. I heard Dr. Masaichi Tanaka let out a strange cry, and suddenly he fell forward and fell to the ground. I immediately stretched out my hands and rubbed my neck. To be honest, at this time, I Vision, almost lost, can't see anything. I only heard a series of crashing sounds. When I was struggling to stand up, I saw several things in the living room being knocked to the ground. Naturally, they were knocked down by Tanaka when he rushed out in a hurry. My neck was still aching, and I couldn't stand still. I only took two steps forward, and saw the housekeeper appearing at the door of the living room in a panic, and said loudly: What's the matter?

I panted and made a sound, feeling weird, and asked: Where is Dr. Tanaka? I just asked a question, but before I got any answer from the housewife, I heard a gunshot coming from the house! As soon as I heard the gunshot, I jumped up and said loudly: "Call the police!" I yelled, and rushed over to where the gunshots came from, but I was too hasty, and I had received two heavy blows just now, so I took a step forward and leaned forward. and fell to the ground. At this moment, I heard the housekeeper shout: The gunshots came from the doctor's room! I struggled to stand up and said loudly: "Call the police!"

I leaned on the wall, walked forward in a hurry, left the living room, walked through a hallway, and came to a closed door. I slammed my shoulder against the door hard, and hit it for the fourth time. The door was knocked over by me. I immediately saw Masaichi Tanaka! That was Masaichi Tanaka's bedroom. That's right. Masaichi Tanaka was holding a gun in his hand, and there was even smoke coming out of the muzzle. He was lying on the bed, and the bed was stained with blood. The bullet shot into his temple. The firing distance was so close, and the sight of Masaichi Tanaka's death was so horrific that I don't want to describe it in detail.

Although there are two windows open, there should be no doubt that Dr. Shoichi Tanaka committed suicide! I stood at the door, I really didn't want to see Tanaka Masaichi's tragic situation, but I couldn't take my eyes off the big pool of blood, and Tanaka Masaichi was shot in the head, my thoughts were extremely chaotic, I didn't actually What to say, I just asked him: Who is that mysterious man, why did he commit suicide for this? The biggest possibility is naturally that he knew the mysterious man, and it was also related to Henry's death, and even the death of Dr. Connors, so when I asked him like this, he thought I knew everything. Suicide in fear of guilt.

However, the truth of the matter, is it not so? I stood blankly at the door for an unknown amount of time, until I heard the whine of a police car approaching from a distance and passing quickly, and I was shocked suddenly. When I leaned on the door frame and turned around, two police officers had already appeared in front of me. Those two police officers were reckless enough. When they saw Tanaka Masaichi's body in the room, they immediately grabbed my arm and turned my hand around. I really don't want to argue with them, anyway, I didn't kill Tanaka Masaichi, it's really easy to figure out.

Then, more police officers and police officers rushed in, and I was pushed into the living room by those two police officers, and then a police officer also walked in and said, "Let him go, the deceased committed suicide." The two police officers still didn't quite believe it. My voice, even to my own ears, felt very tired. I said, "You can know my identity from the National Security Agency, the special investigator, Beck Bass, Moreover, you'd better leave this matter to the Security Bureau! The police officer said: Maybe, but you must follow us to the police station!

I was really tired, too tired to even open my mouth, I just nodded. I don't know what the police did because I was immediately put in a car and driven to the police station. I was left alone in a room, and two hours later, Bai Ke hurried in. I saw Bai Ke and sighed. Bai Ke immediately dragged a chair and sat down in front of me. Two senior police officers also walked in.Bai Ke said: "How about it? They said you wouldn't cooperate." I smiled bitterly: They don't know the ins and outs of the matter at all, so how can I start to cooperate?It's best if you come, that's how things went

I told in detail how I went to see Masaichi Tanaka and talked to him. Bai Ke frowned and listened attentively. When I finished speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the two police officers, then reached out and patted me on the shoulder: "It's none of your business. Tanaka obviously committed suicide in fear of crime." of! Bai Ke said it with such certainty, I knew he must have some grounds. I looked at Bai Ke, and he said: I have contacted the General Administration, and the General Administration has information on Tanaka, which states that Tanaka lived in Hokkaido for a period of time during his university days, and during that period, he mysteriously disappeared from time to time. I speculate that he left Hokkaido, possibly to Sakhalin Island.

I was stunned for a while, and Bai Ke spread his hands: You know, going to that kind of place, of course, is not for tourism, he is over there, maybe for training, he is a spy of that side! I took a deep breath: According to what you said, the matter has become clear! Bai Ke said: Yes, that mysterious man must be related to Masaichi Tanaka. They may be collaborators and murdered Henry together. That's why you suggested it to him, and he went crazy! When Bai Ke talked about this, he paused for a moment before saying: You know, for trained people like them, when things come to light, the only way is to commit suicide!

I sighed, stood up slowly, and nodded: I believe that too, otherwise, a senior intellectual, who rarely has such high karate attainments, almost broke my neck bone with his palm! One of the two police officers said: You can go! Bai Ke said: "This matter, it's best not to announce the inside story to the press, let us handle it." The two police officers nodded in agreement, and Bai Ke and I left the police station and got into Bai Ke's car. Bai Ke didn't drive immediately, but just looked at me: Wei, things are getting more and more complicated! But I shook my head: No, it seems to me that things are getting simpler and simpler.

Bai Ke looked at me suspiciously, and I said: I have been suspicious for a long time, like following Dr. Connors uninterruptedly for a year, no one else can do such a thing except a huge organization! Bai Ke said: So what, Connors committed suicide. I said: If Connors really committed suicide, then why should they be so nervous because the film fell into other people's hands and insisted on getting it back? Bai Ke blinked and said nothing. I said again: And, don’t forget, the identity of the mysterious man must be the same as Masaichi Tanaka. Before Connors committed suicide, he had met with him. What I want to know now is, Connors and that man, Why did they meet, what did they talk about, and where did the mysterious man and Connors go. Bai Ke nodded and said: Yes, on this point, I have a guess. The other party has been using our scientists' brains. I think that the mysterious man may have offered to buy Connors, and Connors has already agreed. I regretted it afterwards, so I was forced to commit suicide! I frowned: Bai Ke, Connors is dead, don't hurt his reputation anymore! Bai Ke said: My guess is very reasonable.I shook my head and said: No, Dr. Conner's actions are impeccable according to the documentary film of his actions over the past year. Will it be bought by the enemy? Bai Ke said: Then, why did he commit suicide? I shook my head and said: I don't know, but now that we know the identity of the mysterious man, it won't be very difficult to find him. Bai Ke said: Of course! He started the car, drove forward, and drove me back to the hotel. This night, I thought about everything again. Lila's appearance made me know Tanaka Masaichi's phone number. Since then, things have taken a turn for the worse and become clear! If Dr. Conner's research is used in the military, it will be the birth of another extremely powerful weapon. It is not surprising that a figure like him has attracted the attention of international spies. It is not surprising that Tanaka Masaichi's true identity is so despicable. I am not familiar with Tanaka Masaichi, let alone knowing a person's true identity, even if we have known each other for ten or eight years, it is not easy an easy job. Now, the only question left is: Dr. Connors, why did he die. It's like going in circles, going back to the old place! What puzzles me is: if these videos recording the actions of Dr. Connors have no criminal intentions, then even if they are lost and picked up by Henry, there is no need to be nervous. Anyway, the identity of the murderer is well concealed, so why use such a big He wanted to get the film back, and finally killed Henry! When the murderer killed Henry, he might have thought that Henry had disappeared from now on. The large bag Henry had left with Professor An Qiaojia might forget because of his busy work schedule, and they would have a chance to get it back.Unexpectedly, driven by curiosity, An Qiaojia watched the screening. After these videos are made public, it is naturally much more difficult to get them back. Moreover, many people have seen those videos, so it is meaningless to get them back. So Masaichi Tanaka felt guilty. When he proposed to the Science Association to invite me to investigate, he obviously underestimated my ability. He probably thought that I was a foolish detective. When I came here, the result It is to go back with nothing. Masaichi Tanaka was almost as expected, because if Baike hadn't left me behind at the airport, I would have gone back without any success. But in the end, Tanaka Masaichi's proposal became his own reminder, which was naturally beyond his expectation. Recording the actions of Dr. Connors, the matter itself, must have a great criminal intent, this is certain. Moreover, the mysterious man also met Dr. Connors directly, and they intend to deal with Dr. Connors, which is almost certain! However, Dr. Connors committed suicide! It's a big, puzzling contradiction, and the whole thing is tedious, because it goes around and around, always going to the same place, without any new progress. Since Dr. Connors committed suicide with such unquestionable evidence, it seems that it is difficult to have any results. At noon the next day, Bai Ke came to the hotel to find me. When he saw me, he looked very excited. As soon as he saw me, he shouted: We found him! I have been with Bai Ke for quite a while, and I have known him to a certain extent, so as soon as I heard him say that, I immediately knew that what Bai Ke called him must be that mysterious man! This news made me very excited, and I hurriedly said: That's great, you must have detained him, let's go, let's go see him! Bai Ke was a little embarrassed, he hurriedly said: No, I mean, I finally know who the mysterious man is, but I haven't seen him, but I have ordered a place to be temporarily blocked. Bai Ke's words made it hard for me to understand, I frowned and fixed him, Bai Ke smiled and said: That's it, don't we already know the identity of this mysterious man as a spy?They are good at concealing their spy identities. They use their identities as diplomats. I went to the relevant departments to check and found out. This guy is called Lu Dafu, and his identity is the second-level assistant of the consulate photojournalism. Is it strange? I said, "It's not surprising at all. He must be in charge of filming those movies. This Mr. Lu Dafu is undoubtedly an expert in photography. I think you can go to the consulate to meet him?" Bai Ke immediately said: Do you think I will not go?I went to the consulate and asked to see this photojournalism second assistant, but the consulate said that he had gone back to China. I didn’t believe it at first, but after checking the departure records of diplomatic personnel, I found out that this guy really left ! I hummed: This is expected, but you just said that a place is blocked, what do you mean? Bai Ke said: I further investigated Lu Dafu's actions and found that he had a small house in the northern suburbs of the city. I contacted the prosecutor and he signed the order. The local police officers have rushed to seal the house. Let's take a look together, we may find something! Although Bai Ke's expression was still quite excited, I couldn't help but yawned. When Bai Ke saw my reaction, he couldn't help but startled. I patted him on the shoulder and said: Considering such a professional spy, since he has already returned home, how could he have anything left behind?I'm not going, I think I should go back too! Bai Ke seemed to be begging me: It's always good to go and have a look, or maybe you can find something! Bai Ke was so stubborn that there was really nothing he could do about it. I was at the airport that day and I stayed with him with this attitude.At this time, I had no choice but to shrug my shoulders: Well, go and see! Bai Ke put on my coat graciously, and we went downstairs together, and he drove the car straight to the northern suburbs. Along the way, we exchanged some opinions. We all thought that Dr. Connors’ suicide might have something to do with Ludaf’s meeting, but when Ludaf met Dr. Conas, what did they say?What happened between them?I expected nothing to be gained this time. As soon as we arrived, a police officer came up to meet me. I was looking at the small brick house with a garden outside it. It was about a hundred yards away. An identical brick house. It's quite secluded here, it's very smart for a person like Lu Dafu to choose this kind of place as his residence. As soon as the police officer came over and shook hands with Bai Ke, he said in a deep voice: The people in the room saw Lu Dafu and a man coming here. According to his description, this man seems to be Dr. Connors. Bai Ke was shocked: on that day? The police officer said: The exact date, the witnesses can't remember, but it was always shortly before Dr. Connors committed suicide. Bai Ke looked at me, I nodded and said: Yes, it was the day before Dr. Connors committed suicide. The police officer looked at me suspiciously, and I said: Lu Dafu went to see Dr. Connors on that day, and the doctor left with him. According to the doctor's housewife, he went for a long time before he left. He came back alone, and now it is clear that Lu Dafu brought the doctor here! Bai Ke murmured: What happened here? As he said, we have moved forward together and walked over. The whole house was already empty, and the things in the house were also very messy. After we went in, we quickly checked the whole house, and there was nothing suspicious. Bai Ke was already collecting scraps of paper, hoping to get some information from them. He found a lot of scraps of paper in a waste paper bin next to an old desk. And I, standing under a window, under that window, there is a very strange thing. That thing is not really weird, it's just a two-foot by two-foot square aquarium, the kind used to keep tropical fish, glass on five sides, and covered with a fairly dense barbed wire. However, in that aquarium, there was no water, and more than half of the tank was soil, and there seemed to be some things crawling on the soil. I squatted down and looked, and saw those crawling things, which were a kind of rather small body. The bumblebees are in the soil, burrowing in and out. They seem to be very busy, and there are quite a few of them. This kind of wasp is a kind of round flower bee. When laying eggs, the female bee will dig a hole in the soil and lay her eggs in the soil. Isn't it odd that this bumble bee should appear in the home of a spy who is in fact a secondary camera assistant? When I squatted down and looked at those bumblebees, and felt strange, Bai Ke had come behind me: What are you doing? I pointed to the aquarium: You see, unless Ludaf is going to make a documentary about the life of this kind of bumblebee, why is he keeping a tank of this kind of bumblebee? Bai Ke squatted down, also showing a puzzled look, suddenly, he jumped up as if he had been stung by a bumblebee, and lost his voice: I have found the murderer of Dr. Connors ! All of a sudden, he said that, and I was taken aback, so I quickly looked at him. Bai Ke pointed to those bumblebees: that's them!Dr. Connors may have some kind of allergy and cannot be stung by bees, otherwise, he will die. I think this is a good guess! I sighed: Bai Ke, you should not be an investigator soon, but you can write novels. What kind of conjecture is this, and you can completely ignore the facts!The doctor's death was due to drug poisoning, and he had personally bought this drug at the pharmacy beforehand! Bai Ke blinked and smiled wryly. Of course, what he just said was just a momentary impulse. As long as he thinks about it a little more carefully, even he himself can know that it is absolutely impossible in fact. ! He sighed: Then, what is the use of Ludaf keeping these bumble bees? I shook my head and said: It's hard to say, maybe it's hobbies, people have all kinds of strange hobbies, I know a person, his greatest pleasure is to be friends with fleas. Bai Ke glared at me and said, "Stop joking!" I asked Bai Ke, "I'm not joking at all, Bai Ke, tomorrow, I have to leave no matter what." Bai Ke stood up and clapped his hands helplessly: All right!All right!I don't see much else to do! I also stood up, the search of the house was still going on, I just looked around, because I knew it was impossible to find anything. We left after a delay of about four hours and returned to the city. I was already making preparations to leave. In the evening, Bai Ke came to me again. He held a piece of white paper in his hand. A picture made of many shredded paper, not very complete, but nine out of ten. On that picture, there are some irregular, meaningless, messy lines. Bai Ke spread the picture in front of me: it was put together from the pieces of paper found in Ludaff's waste paper bin. Look, does this have any special meaning? I frowned and didn't make a sound. Bai Ke said again: I seem to remember that you mentioned such a picture, which is full of repeated and irregular lines. I nodded and said, "Yes, I found a picture like this in Henry's residence, and it was picked up by Henry, but I don't think it's of any special significance. It's in the Science Association, and everyone has seen it. Later, Lila also mentioned it to me. Bai Ke said: Are the lines on the two pictures the same? I said: Not the same, but I can be sure it is the same kind, because it seems that they are all the same messy and repetitive When I said this, I raised my head: How, do you think there might be any special meaning? Bai Ke sighed: It's hard to say, I dare not let you go home, but I hope we can keep in touch again!
