Chapter 32 second quarter

The next day, the Nakaoka police visited Aoe Tadori at Shikoku Oil Company. "You policeman is really stubborn!" Qing Jiang smiled at Zhonggang, but his eyes were very cold. "Once you start tracking your prey, never give up halfway. This is your creed!" "You can explain whatever you want." "I see. So, what's your business today?" "When Kyouji Anko was the captain, the waste liquid was discharged on the ship. There used to be someone else working!" Qingjiang showed his sharpness, but Nakaoka responded calmly. "Of course there are. Workers are needed for discharging waste caustic soda and loading ships. There are two workers on each ship."

When he spoke, he seemed more dignified. "Please let me see the list of workers." "Mr. Police—" Qing Jiang's voice was mixed with a little anxiety, as if he had been stabbed suddenly. "Let's not waste time. What exactly do you want to know..." "A worker probably disappeared at the end of September last year..." "You understand very clearly. At the end of September last year, there was indeed a worker who concealed his whereabouts and did not come to work without authorization. By the way, another person drowned because of a heart attack."

"Drown because of a heart attack?" This sentence is really unexpected.Nakaoka realized that Qingjiang had already started fighting. "Before 8 o'clock in the morning on September 29 last year, when the waste liquid discharge ship returned to the shore from the open sea, a worker named Suzuki, who was nearly 50 years old, fell into the sea. If it was working hours, there would be porters on the pier , Someone will definitely rescue him immediately. But unfortunately, it was early in the morning, and there were only An Gao and the missing worker. An Gao hurried to tell me, and I immediately put on a diving suit and salvaged him. But, The person is already dead. Suzuki is a retired coal mine worker in Kyushu. He suffered from a heart attack. He fell into the sea suddenly due to a heart attack. Therefore, he only drank a small amount of water. It is better to say that he died of a heart attack than drowning. more correct."

"Have you had an autopsy?" "No. Because it was obviously a heart attack. The company's attending doctor wrote a death certificate after examining the body. Because in the afternoon of the first day, Suzuki had come to get the medicine and asked the doctor to see him. He died of pure illness. Another worker I haven’t come to work since the next day. They are all daily wage earners, and they seem to be wandering around.” Qing Jiang said casually, as if he himself had blown a gust of wind and blown them away. "September 29th was the day before An Gao was injured."

"Ah, now that you said that, I remembered, yes." "Do you know his address?" "I don't know. I don't know where they live because they don't have a work contract. These people work for a living. Maybe they live in a slum." He is so calm, probably because he has done research beforehand. Nakaoka silently stared at Qing Jiang. "Your eyes are like those of a jaguar!" The corner of Qing Jiang's mouth smiled again. "Please take me to the dock where the water fell." "Okay, I'll take you there. You're plotting against me. I'm your prey."

Qing Jiang tugged at the well-stitched suit with his hands, and stood up from his seat. The two walked side by side to the dedicated pier. The sea is dead.It is nothing more than because there is sea water, so it is still called the sea.On the surface of the black-red dirty water, the waste oil reflects the dazzling sunlight, forming a colorful rainbow, like an abstract oil painting, presenting an overly colorful beauty. On the pier, a dazzling white small motorboat floats in the water, like a swan that hasn't gone around.There are no other ships on the wide pier, only the figures of a few workers in the distance.

"This is the area." Nakaoka looked at the pier area Qing Jiang pointed out to him.There is no trace of any living things on the shore of reinforced concrete.The thick reinforced concrete is littered with rotting eyeholes and cracks like ruthless claw marks.There is a sulfur smell everywhere. "Because large ships were also docking, the depth of the water was 20 meters, and the body sank to the bottom of the sea." The slight sound of the rippling waves made the surroundings seem even more silent.Qing Jiang's voice was very loud. "Such turbid sea water, you were able to find him!"

The sea water here is not transparent at all, and it is not easy to find a person who fell into the water. "It's not bad luck, maybe because I know the location of the falling water. In short, I found it quickly." Qing Jiang looked at the sea and replied. "Are you a good dive?" "It's not a good dive, I practiced it for a while in middle school." "Mr. Qing Jiang—" Nakaoka slowly turned his head to look at Qing Jiang's face, and the rippling breeze blew Qing Jiang's long hair. "As you just said, I have been looking at you with the eyes of a jaguar. One day I will subdue the prey. When it struggles, I will go all out to catch it. Although the charm of going astray costs It took time, but the Jaguars finally found their target."

Nakaoka issued a declaration.After he finished speaking, he watched Qing Jiang's reaction.As expected, Qing Jiang was unmoved. "This is finally showing its true colors! I had a premonition for a long time. I don't want to waste words. However, before being caught by a jaguar, I want to at least ask the reason." The mysterious smile on Qing Jiang's face disappeared. "Suspected of murdering An Gao Gonger." "I see." Qing Jiang nodded seriously. "You played with Emiko Yasuka, and you played with Shirakawa's wife when the former section chief Shirakawa was alive..."

Nakaoka turned his gaze to the sea. "Is this against the law?" "I did not say." For men, women are dangerous monsters.Nakaoka has always believed that Qingjiang sucks oil blood.However, he also dug his own grave because of the woman himself.The cruel method of occupying Shirakawa Kyoko created a cockroach grave and left the corpse of larvae in the wall.If these things did not happen, Qingjiang would not be able to hear the jaguar's footsteps. ——However, can this guy really be subdued? Nor was it without unease in the keen jaguar's eyes.It must be Qing Jiang's crime to irradiate X-rays, but in order to prove this, a portable X-ray machine must be found.However, if the X-ray machine is completely destroyed, there is nothing to be done.Moreover, he has sufficient evidence to prove the murder of An Gao.If it can be found out that the corpse floating on the warm current is that worker, or if it can be found that the cause of death of the worker who died of a heart attack on this pier is the doctor's perjury, then it may become a breakthrough, but...

"I want to meet the workers. Maybe someone knows where the missing worker lives. Also, I want to see the doctor who signed Suzuki's death certificate." "Okay, whatever you want." "One more thing. I want to see the staff dormitory where Yasuo Shirakawa lived. And please explain your actions on February 10, 11, and 12." If Qingjiang had gone to Tokyo to perform X-ray radiation on Angao, it would probably be in these few days. "What is the purpose of this?" Nakaoka felt that the other party seemed a little nervous. "Have you forgotten? It's just to subdue you!" "That's a joy to say." After a while, Qingjiang's meaningful laughter sounded. The two left the pier side by side. Finally failed to find out the origin of the drowned. Although Nakaoka found a few workers for questioning, those who had more contacts with the missing people did not tell anything of value.I'm afraid he doesn't even have any relatives.Qingjiang must have already done an investigation on this.Most of the workers do not sign a work contract at all, they are people of unknown origin who come to do short-term work.They are all people who remain at the bottom of society.As long as the company feels inappropriate, it will be fired immediately.Even if an accident occurs at work, the workers are simply driven away with meager alimony.Nakaoka thought of the three workers who died from tetraethylene lead poisoning.Unions don't think about reaching out to these people at all.The soul of the drowned person appealed to the Metropolitan Police Department. Could it be that even the soul of the soul has nothing to do with the company? There was no gain on the doctor's side either. The doctor, surnamed Takemura, was already old, with a slightly fat body, and his high cheekbones were full of greed. "Although they are all called cardioplegia, it is actually just a general term for many diseases. The patient last time belonged to cardiac fatty degenerative disease. This is a disease caused by atrophic changes in the myocardium and increased fat. Because the patient complained often Asthma occurred, so a myocardial microscopic specimen was made. He has a history of alcoholism, and we are particularly wary of patients with a history of intoxication such as syphilis. Sometimes this disease will suddenly attack people who appear to be very healthy. And fights or violent Movements can also be a trigger for this disease. If it is not identified in advance, it can easily be mistaken for a crime. If this happens, the company will of course suffer. In short, because of this situation, there is no need for an administrative autopsy, so I checked the body and disposed of it. His wife came here from Kyushu. Section Chief Qingjiang probably presided over his funeral and gave him a lot of care." Dr. Takemura explained. Nakaoka had no choice but to say goodbye.Since the attending doctor had made a diagnosis the previous afternoon—that is, within 24 hours—the cause of death had already been determined, and in principle there was no need for an autopsy, or even an autopsy. There will never be such a thing! ——Nakaoka rejected Takemura's explanation in his heart.Two men were on board, one drowned in the warm current of the ocean, the other died on the pier.And on the second day, scars appeared on An Gao's face.The three of them must have suffered some kind of disaster while the ship was sailing in the warm ocean current.This suspicion is common sense, but now that the body has been cremated, it is impossible to reveal the conspiracy to forge the death certificate. He came to the staff dormitory. Here, too, he failed to get any evidence.It was just a temporary dormitory before the company's housing was built, and it now houses single workers.He looked at the room, two rooms of twelve square meters and a few square meters and a narrow kitchen.Mediocre in size, it seems to have been built hastily, with very rough plaster and thin walls.There is a gap between the wall and the pillar. If it is night, the light from the next door will definitely shine through. Nakaoka stared at the wall for a while.A phantom appeared in front of him: Yasuo Shirakawa, who was suffering from neurosis, fell asleep on the other side of the wall.In order to occupy his beautiful wife, Qing Jiang is secretly emitting X-rays.After depriving Yasuo Shirakawa of his sexual function and occupying his wife, he destroyed his eyesight and forced him to commit suicide... Nakaoka felt a chill all over his body. He walked out of the dormitory.Even if the walls are torn down and searched, as long as there are no graves of larvae in the walls, there is no way to prove that X-rays with very little residual radiation have been irradiated here. He found Qing Jiang again. "Is there any gain?" "Not yet in the current situation. However, I will definitely find evidence for you." "I hope so. Otherwise, I can only think that you are just a braggart and mystifier. By the way, I went to the Tokyo head office on February 10th, 11th, and 12th. I took the 10th night I went to Tokyo by car and returned to Takamatsu at three o'clock in the afternoon on the twelfth. When I was in Tokyo, I stayed at the Kyoto Hotel in Shimbashi." Qingjiang handed over a note, which stated the time of his arrival in Tokyo and his return to Takamatsu and his activities in Tokyo. "I hope this is of some use to you." After he finished speaking, a sneer appeared on his face again. ——This burial bug! As long as the burial insect finds the dead animal skeleton, it immediately goes under the dead skeleton and digs a tunnel desperately, so the dead skeleton is gradually buried due to its own weight.Kyouji Anko's remains were slowly disappearing into the pit dug by the burial bug.If it was completely buried, Nakaoka would no longer be able to subdue this guy in front of him.Nakaoka's ears could already hear the sound of the burial bug digging a hole under the dead body.
