Chapter 4 Chapter 4 The Evil Equation
Mano Feng, a staff member of the Itabashi Office of the Jingjing District Legal Affairs Bureau, had a feeling of disgust from the man who came to apply for inspection of the registration book and the bound application form.
The man was about forty years old, wearing clothes that revealed his wealth too much, and his whole body exuded the aura of a dignified nouveau riche.He himself probably mistook this for "beautiful".
However, what Mano Yutaka noticed was not the clothes, but the peeking eyes that peeked out from behind his overly sophisticated attitude.It touched Mano's professional sensibilities.
He seemed very calm on the surface, but his eyes were looking around, which is what people often say "eyes are wandering".
After submitting the inspection application form, you can browse the register in the reading room.Smoking is prohibited in the reading room, and the use of pens and other pens is prohibited.Of course, it is not allowed to take the register away from here.
If you encounter a vicious land dealer, he will take advantage of the staff's loopholes and smear and falsify the contents of the register or the drawings, so you can't be careless.
For some reason, Mano felt disgusted by this person who applied to inspect the documents, so he secretly watched.
The man looked earnestly at the registration book.At this time, another applicant came, and his attention was temporarily distracted from the person who came. When he looked in the direction of the reading room again, the man from just now was no longer there.The registration book he consulted was also missing.
Where did he go?Mano could no longer bear the ominous feeling, and was about to get up when the man returned to the inquiry room with the bound book under his arm.
Mano immediately walked up to him and asked, "Where did you go just now?"
Surprised, the man picked up his head and said, "Ah, I went to the toilet..."
"Don't you know that register books are not allowed to be taken out?"
"Because I suddenly wanted to relieve myself, I forgot all of a sudden! I'm really sorry." The man scratched his head and nodded.
"It's too bad if you don't play by the rules."
"Be careful in the future, please forgive me!"
He apologized repeatedly, put down the register, and planned to leave.
To be on the safe side, Mano opened the part that the man checked, and the one he requested to check was gone.This is not right, just now Mano pointed out the location of the registration document to the applicant in accordance with the requirements on the application form.When Mano looked carefully at the pages before and after the document, he became furious.
"Hey, stop!"
After discovering the abnormal situation, Mano acted very quickly, and he suddenly caught up with the man who was about to walk away from the door of the registration office.Although the man was about to escape, Mano grabbed the sleeve of his jacket.
"You ripped the papers from the register? Why did you do that!"
Facing the menacing Mano, although the man flinched, he still muttered: "What's going on?"
"I can't let you go back, I'll call the police right away to find out."
"You, you are unreasonable!"
The man protested.But when he heard the noise, other employees and people present ran over to watch, so he was also discouraged and languished.
This man is a former leader of the Negishi faction of the gangster Daito Group, named Umemoto Takashi, who is now running the real estate "Umemoto Comfortable Housing Agency" at 2-93 Ikebukuro, Toshima-ku, Tokyo.
The registration documents he tore off and stolen were the registration documents of the company's own building and a condominium called "Maben Blue Sky Building".
The Metropolitan Police Department, which was in charge of investigating the matter, searched the fourth section and found that Umemoto forged the power of attorney of the original owner of the building to register, and then attempted to steal the bound forged documents from the bound volume of application documents.Therefore, he was re-examined on suspicion of stealing documents and embezzling property.
In the process of investigation, the case gradually exposed its deep roots.
It turned out that before this building was owned by Umemoto, it was an apartment building commissioned by Benji Yoshihara, who operates a waste disposal business in Kanda Erdao Street in Chiyo Ward, to a construction company in Nerima Ward.It had eight floors above ground and one basement and contained sixty-two suites, but the construction company went bankrupt before it could be completed.
Umemoto, who was informed of this situation, asked his subsidiary Umemoto Engineering Shop to take over the construction tasks and complete the work, and then demanded a payment equivalent to three times the contracted amount of the original construction company on the grounds that various materials and construction costs had risen. .Yoshihara Benji of course refused to pay, which was in Umemoto's arms, so he registered the building for custody and obtained the ownership.
The ownership of a building that is halted in the middle of construction or that has been completed depends on who pays all or most of the building materials between the building owner and the contractor.If the material is provided by both parties, the ownership belongs to the party that provided the main material.
However, in the case of this building, the original construction contractor who paid for the main materials has gone bankrupt, so things are troublesome.It is extremely doubtful that Meiben probably focused on this point, took over the project, and then demanded three times the construction fee after adding a small amount of materials and labor. Got it by chance.
Benji Yoshihara, the owner of the building, was taken aback by this, and immediately filed a complaint with the Ikebukuro Police Station, and at the same time filed a civil lawsuit with the Tokyo District Court for deregistration.But so far no results.
Now Umemoto has moved his company into the building, and the apartment is for the cadres of the Negishi faction and the bar girls under the protection of the faction to live in.
Recently, because the situation of the lawsuit was not good for him, Mei Ben went to the registration office himself and tore up the registration documents in an attempt to destroy the evidence.
"A villain like you, you still do such childish things as tearing up documents!" said the interrogating police officer.
Mei Ben replied gruffly: "Anyway, we are vulgar people, very childish. But sir, don't just chase after small fish and shrimp like us, go and catch that big shark too."
"Don't be talkative! Is a guy who can snatch other people's buildings by chance considered a small fish and shrimp?"
"Because I was caught and reported because I was a small fish and shrimp. Then I said that we were robbing, which is really ugly. But the real robbing is Yoshihara Benji. That guy didn't move a dime, and he wanted to take advantage of the original building. When the company went bankrupt, he snatched the entire building without paying any money. Because the boy is a garbage dumper, he is like a fly biting on the garbage dump, a dirty villain!"
"Aren't you dirty?"
"Sir, if you have time to deal with a pawn like me, you might as well explore around Yoshihara, you will definitely see something interesting." Umemoto snickered.
"What do you mean by fun stuff?"
"That guy colluded with the officials and squeezed enough oil and water to drink."
"People from the official family? Colluding with some official family?"
The investigator's confession to Meiben developed in an unexpected direction, calmly, and slowly lured the fish into the bait.
"Isn't it easy to investigate such a matter, Mr. Police Officer?!" Mei Ben didn't take Jun lightly, but taunted him maliciously.
"You, don't talk about others, just drive the flies off your head first. You are so dirty that dust will come out when you knock on it. This time you won't be able to escape so easily."
"Sir, please don't scare me. Of course it's wrong to tear up the registration book, but that building really belongs to me. I spent about one billion on materials and engineering costs. Because Yoshihara likes to talk nasty words, so I just I was dazed for a while and made such a small move. Yoshihara is a terrible guy. If he knows that I said it, I don’t know what he will do to me.”
Umemoto was originally a cadre of the gang, and he still has contact with him. It seems that he is really afraid of Yoshihara.
"Yoshihara is so scary, you dare to invade his mansion, you are brave enough."
"So I've said it several times just now. It's not me who wants to embezzle, but him. Yoshihara didn't want to pay the money from the beginning, and told me to take over the project for nothing. I was the victim in this incident. The original The construction company went out of business because that kid did it from behind."
"How could you continue with such a gunpowder-like project?"
"Cheated! Originally, I also took advantage of his weaknesses, but I didn't expect that he would really set up such a greedy trap to make me jump into it."
"What is his shortcoming?"
"That is……"
Meiben also seemed to have accidentally slipped his words.It was seen that he was a little panicked, and his words were also hesitating.The investigator felt that Meiben seemed to be hiding some important issue.
Umemoto held Yoshihara's handle, so he punched the issue of occupying the building.From Meiben's point of view, since Yoshihara was caught, he had no choice but to suffer.However, he was blinded by optimistic estimates and was charged.
In this regard, Umeben did not dare to use his trump card immediately.Probably the handle that Meiben has is a double-edged sword, and Meiben himself will be stabbed when he swings it.
"What does that shortcoming refer to, tell me!"
"If it is revealed, I will be killed by Yoshihara."
"So you were a general in the Negishi Group, why are you so cowardly?!"
"Yoshihara is not ordinary. He didn't want his life, so he knew I was holding him, but he still sued me. However, he underestimated me too much. He thought I would never speak. Damn, if I get angry , I don't know how scary it will be!"
It was only at this time that Meiben acted like a former cadre of a violent gang.He went on to say, "Sir, that guy has recently obtained a permit for landfill operations at the Kuwashita New Development Area in Musashihara City, please go there and investigate."
"Musashihara?"
"It's Musashihara City in Saitama Prefecture. There is a newly developed land called Kuwashita. There are about 40 million square meters of wasteland. Please investigate the right to fill this place with garbage. How Yoshihara got it .That’s all I can say. The rest is up to you, sir, to analyze and judge.”
Meben fell silent after saying this.
While investigating Umemoto Takashi, the hands of secret detectives also reached out to Yoshihara Benji.In particular, the investigators continued to smell something about the right to fill and fill the Kushita Newly-opened District in Musashihara City that Umemoto hinted at.
Musashihara City is a booming city located in the southern part of Saitama Prefecture.About ten years after the war, it was a purely rural area. From the Showa 30s, the process of housing land was accelerated, and factories were built one by one. A triple jump for urban transition.Most of the urban area is built on the Musashi Terrace.In addition, the trees on the plain remain like reefs washed by the waves of urbanization.
The Kuangshita Xinkai area is located at the lower end of the south of Musashihara City. It is a low-lying wasteland formed by the accumulation of about ten meters of Kanto loam. It was abandoned due to insufficient water sources, covering an area of about 40,000 square meters.
However, last year, the site was provided to the "Capital Environmental Maintenance Company" in Kanda, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo, which operates an industrial waste treatment business, and under the supervision and guidance of the Sanitation Division of Musashihara City, it started filling work.
The so-called filling project is a landfill disposal site for garbage.The owner of this huge company called Capital Environmental Maintenance is Benji Yoshihara.
Industrial waste is a product of modern civilization.Although industrial waste itself is not included in public hazards, if it is not handled properly, it will become the culprit of air, water, soil and other pollution.The current annual discharge of industrial waste has easily exceeded 100 million tons, so residents' anti-pollution campaigns and restrictions on pollution are also constantly being strengthened.It is no longer possible to dump such garbage arbitrarily.
The current situation is that all enterprises are worried about finding their own waste dumping sites.
If industrial waste is roughly classified, it can be divided into four categories: combustible materials such as wood and paper; flammable and toxic gas-emitting materials such as oil and synthetic polymer shavings; non-combustible materials in the form of mud and liquid ; Solid non-combustible materials such as coal slag, dirty soil, metal shavings, etc.
Before these materials are finally discarded, physical and chemical disposals such as dehydration, compression, neutralization, and slightly aging toxicity must be carried out in advance, and then landfill, discarded, and recycled.
The sites to be treated are designated landfills in rivers, lakes, coastal waters, oceans, forests, fields, towns, villages, and land owned by the company.
If large enterprises have their own fixed disposal equipment and treatment sites, small and medium-sized enterprises have to resort to external help for waste disposal and treatment. It is not uncommon for enterprises to close down because they cannot afford the cost of waste disposal.It can be seen that the treatment of industrial waste materials requires high costs, and has become a headache for various enterprises.
So came into being the emerging industry of industrial waste disposal industry.It disposes of waste materials on behalf of businesses, and it is also responsible for the results of the disposal.Small and medium-sized enterprises do not have the power to invest a large amount of funds to purchase equipment for disposal.If it did, the company would have collapsed before the waste material was generated.The industrial waste disposal industry, which can be called the abortion doctor of modern enterprises, is regarded by some as the god of salvation for small and medium-sized enterprises.
As an operator in the disposal industry, huge profits can be made just by throwing away waste, so there is no business that can make huge profits than this.There are poisonous substances and bad smells in the garbage that people didn't deserve to throw away in the past, so they throw it away and dump it everywhere in rivers, lakes, swamps, forests, and oceans.All of a sudden, illegal operators appeared everywhere, and they took on all the work of the enterprise.However, due to stricter investigations by public nuisance supervisory officials, waste materials can only be collected, transported, and disposed of by practitioners approved by the prefectural governors within a strictly prescribed range.
"Capital round-up" is to work hard in illegal business for a while, and after making actual achievements for various enterprises, obtain official permission, become a big player in this field, and continue to earn high profits.
In particular, being designated as the landfill contractor for the 40,000-square-meter Kuwashita New Development Zone in Musashihara City is tantamount to securing the company's lifeline.In this industry, as long as there is a place for the final disposal of waste, then money can be obtained.
Moreover, after being recognized by the government, the company "Capital Consolidation" specializes in processing waste from the construction industry-waste, sand, rubble, etc. These things do not need to be disposed of in advance, as long as the waste is transported out and thrown away. up.
"It's really like what Umeben said. It's a bit of gunpowder."
"A 40,000-square-meter landfill site, and it's a vacant lot near Tokyo. This is a business that any operator would covet."
"However, why is the 'Capital Central' company able to monopolize one side?"
"It seems that there is a simultaneous equation linking the 'Capital Consolidation' company and Musashihara City."
In this way, the information was sent to the Second Search Division of the Saitama Prefectural Police Station.So the hand of secret investigation was extended to Yoshihara Benji and Musashihara City Health Department.
During the secret search, in the Kanda sub-branch of Guanyang Bank, which is the correspondent bank of the "Capital Central" company, it was found that the name of Kazuo Ishida was found in the payee column and the signature column on the back of the payment check and settlement bill. .
Among the checks drawn by the company, the face value of the promissory note paid on July 4 is 728,000 yen. The payee and the back signer of the first note are Kazuo Ishida, and the back signer of the second note is "" Pioneer Auto Sales Company".Moreover, it was found that Kazuo Ishida had purchased a "Pioneer 1900 Super DX" car for the same price as the check face value.
This proves that the car purchased by Ishida was paid by the "Capital Central" company.
"The unknowns of the original equation are hidden here."
The searchers now clearly felt the jerk of a large fish taking hold of the hook.
Kazuo Ishida was thirty-three years old and was born in Hanno City, Saitama Prefecture.After graduating from a local high school, he entered a private university in Tokyo, but because the hotel run by his family went bankrupt, he dropped out of school in the second grade and became a staff member of the Kawagoe City Hall.
Because of his brilliant talents and high enthusiasm for work, he immediately emerged and was promoted to the chief staff member of the pest control unit of the city's health department at the age of twenty-six.His ability to work was appreciated, and at the age of 28, he was promoted to the chief of the general affairs section, and participated in the planning and design of the most vigorously promoted garbage disposal plant in the city at that time.
Also, his enthusiasm for the administrative work of waste disposal is astounding.He used to squat day and night to monitor and capture those who illegally dumped waste in the urban area.I once found out the identity of the prisoner who illegally dumped the garbage from a collection certificate in the garbage.
He is a well-known cadre in the administrative management of waste materials, not only has a high evaluation among the government employees of the city, but also is well-known in the neighboring towns and villages.However, his family life was very unfortunate. Although he got married at the age of 24, he divorced two years later and has been living a celibate life.
He met Benji Yoshihara, the president of the "Capital Huanzheng" company in the case, and it seems that he met shortly after he became the chief of general affairs.
"The chance of their acquaintance is also very interesting. Yoshihara is a repeat offender who illegally dumps garbage into the forest in the urban area, and he was caught because his gas station payment receipt was found among the dumped garbage."
"The one caught because of the receipt is Yoshihara."
"What's even more interesting is the collusion between the public nuisance supervisory officer and the prisoner who illegally dumps trash."
"It's quite interesting. It seems that Yoshihara bought Ishida back then. Tenma, who is independent in the administration and management of waste disposal, is still defeated in the face of money."
"At that time, it must have been the most prosperous period of Ishida's work. It seems that Yoshihara saved a lot of money."
"Maybe Ishida has a place for money."
"Is it because of a woman?"
"No specific woman has been found yet."
"There must be. How can a young age of thirty-three survive without a woman!"
"In May of Showa 40x, when he was 30 years old, with the rapid increase in population, Musashihara City was eager to build a garbage disposal plant. When they were looking for experts in this field, they learned of Ishida's 'reputation' and planned to He was selected from Kawagoe City to be the head of the newly established health department here."
"Compared with Kawagoe City, Musashihara City, which has just started, is still completely blank in terms of administrative management of waste materials disposal. As an authority in this area, Ishida was brought in from an advanced city. The leaders of Musashihara City have great support for He trusts him quite a bit, so Ishida has the final say on who will be appointed to do such an issue of filling and leveling in the new development zone in Kuangshita."
"The operator's permission application submitted to the prefectural governor was also picked up by Ishida."
The deeper one probes into Ishida's surroundings, the thicker the chains between him and the "Capital Huanzheng" company become.
Yoshihara Benji is a stubborn villain.He has six criminal records, and he has eaten bad food in prison more than once.Before running the "capital ring whole" company, he lived by engaging in bill fraud and opening a ghost company.The biggest (exposed) incident among the bad things he did was in the late Showa 1930s, he forged the minutes of the company's general meeting of members, the minutes of the board meeting, and the company's seal, etc., and applied to the Ministry of Justice to register a nihilistic joint stock company. And opened a current deposit account of this ghost company in a small and medium-sized financial institution.Then use the check book and promissory note book you got to cheat again and again.Use the financial owners on the market to cover the bills, or use bad checks to issue bill brokers under the violent gangs to hand them over.
Because it is a money order issued by a fake company that is not an economic entity, it will of course become a dishonored check when the payment date comes.In addition, violent gangs filled in arbitrary amounts on blank checks and spent them everywhere.Therefore, the amount of damage caused by this chargeback is as high as 700 million yen.There are also small and medium-sized financial companies that went bankrupt because of this.
Yoshihara's method is to first deposit and withdraw four or five million yuan in bank deposits within a certain period of time to show his actual existence.When the bank is relieved, they set up a checking account separately and get the checkbook.For this reason, he asked his subordinates to set up branches such as the company establishment office, current deposit management office, and promissory note exchange office.
After starting a windfall in this way, if the situation is not good, the company address of the person who wrote the check will be changed, the staff will be replaced, the business content will be changed, and finally the company name will also be changed.In this way, the company used as a stand-in for such a bad thing has completely changed its disguise.
In addition, they also took the opportunity to intervene in companies with internal disputes or companies that are not well managed, and squeezed them out, severely disrupting them, and making a lot of money.His methods are so vicious and cunning that even violent gangs have to give him three points.The violent group itself has also benefited a lot from Yoshihara, and has established a karmic relationship with him.
"It seems that this venomous snake has come out of its hole again. After working as an industrial waste disposal business recently, it seems to be quite honest for a while." An old criminal said.
"Oh, did you say it was a poisonous snake?"
"Well, that's a guy who can do anything as long as he is concerned. So far, all we have caught is his fraudulent fabrication, and the original records of notarization certificates are inaccurate. In fact, what he does is not Clear. Maybe murder."
The police officer in charge of the search was inspired by the collusion between Benji Yoshihara and Kazuo Ishida, and suddenly remembered the timid expression on Umemoto Takashi's face.
The searcher who obtained these investigation materials was originally investigating Yoshihara, but he just said "poisonous snake", and he slid past him skillfully, avoiding questioning.
In the Guanyang Bank, Ishida's account has a payment note of about 730,000 yuan, which is only regarded as a personal loan, without suspicion.
"Ishida's monthly salary is less than 200,000 yuan, but you are a capitalist who can afford to build a building worth 1.3 billion yuan. Why do you borrow money from such a humble public official?"
"Inconspicuous? This is an insult to the official family. Mr. Ishida is the leading elite in Musashihara City, and he is a figure who can be the third in command in the city in the future. He is a person who will never be trapped in such a small city with peace of mind."
To the investigators' questioning, Yoshihara Benji retorted like this.It is said that he is over sixty years old, but it seems that some part of his skin is full of nutrients and glows red.Although I cut a bald head, I heard that if you use this bald head to touch a woman's body, the woman will like it.
"What does talent have to do with money? You're not answering the question that was asked head-on."
"Mr. Police, you don't know how to do business. Although the salesmen use hundreds of millions of dollars to make a living, sometimes they also worry about the small money of 10,000 to 20,000. You can't get on the plane with only one yuan less. And This is the same reason. If you can borrow money, you can borrow it from a beggar. This is business. Mr. Ishida is a single nobleman and a rich man. In addition to his monthly salary, he also pays twice a year. Bonuses are those who can afford millions of dollars. How about it? Let’s talk about it this way.”
Yoshihara said brazenly.This is a skill acquired through years of doing bad things, and his attitude does not waver at all.
"Then let me ask you, when and why did you borrow the money?"
"Do you have to answer even such a thing? This is an invasion of personal secrets."
"If there's nothing wrong with it, it's fine to answer it."
"Forgot. It's not the details of the one million yuan loan, I can't remember them all."
With such a tone, it was difficult to catch his braids.Behaviors such as poverty and dereliction of duty are called "crimes in the back room".There are few witnesses at the scene of handing over cash or talking secretly.Bribery and bribery and entrustment related to positions are mostly carried out in places such as the back rooms of high-end hotels.And the personnel related to this are all tight-lipped.
As in dealing with murderers, a shout is never enough.There is no other way than to listen carefully to what he said, and then find out the contradictions.However, a seasoned veteran like Yoshihara will not easily reveal his flaws.
Unskillful smiling tactics (smile, pat on the shoulder, etc.) will only be counterattacked by the other party's hey smile.
The investigators had to admit that it was too early for a decisive battle with Yoshihara.Before the suspicion of the crime was fully confirmed, it was time to decide the outcome, so Noyoshihara, the old traitor, saw that the evidence in their hands was insufficient.
In this way, if Ishida is passed on, the result can be imagined.After the borrowed money is returned, what to do with it is completely free.
Whoever was appointed to do the filling work in the new development zone in Sangxia was also ordered by the city, and he did not exceed his authority.If no relevant proof can be found for the payment receipt of 728,000 yuan and the candidate for the filling operation of the Sangxia New Development Zone, then the two of them cannot be accused of accepting bribes.It is difficult to establish evidence with the only materials currently in hand.
It seems that the big fish that has just been hooked is about to bite the line and run away.
But at this moment, unexpected reinforcements appeared from unexpected quarters.
"If it's the Kanda branch of the Sekio Bank, isn't that the same bank where the man from before Kayoko Ninomiya is the branch manager?"
This was said by Nasu from the investigation headquarters for the murder of a female bank employee.Some words about the building encroachment case currently being handled by the second search department came from his ears.
"It was the boss of the bank she was with before Ninomiya was murdered. It seems to be called Isomura. Isn't the place where the kid was transferred to be the branch manager, the Kanda branch?"
Nasu's innocent eyes rolled up.
"That's right! It is indeed. But, did Yoshihara use this bank as a correspondent bank by accident?"
Yamaji followed Nasu's words.Since Yoshihara's residence is in Kanda Ward, it is natural to use the Kanda branch of Sekio Bank.
"If you only look at it from this point of view, it can be considered accidental. But the section chief of the city government that Yoshihara bribed was also involved."
"The section chief of the city government?..."
"The name Kazuo Ishida seems familiar. By the way, it is the companion of Kayoko Ninomiya who went to Matsushima..."
"Hishida Kazuya!" Several people said in unison.
"Yes, yes, Hishida Kazuya and Ishida Kazuo always have a fishy smell." Nasu's nose twitched.
If "Hishida" and "Ishida" are the same person, then the second matching point of the Kanda Branch of Guanyang Bank cannot be ignored.If there are two converging points, then what comes from accident is covered with a strong color of necessity.
"It seems that Isomura also has an affair in this case." Shimoda said.
"No, it has nothing to do with Isomura. But after Isomura was transferred to the Kanda branch, Hishida Kazuya—Ishida Kazuo approached Kayoko. Looking at it this way, Ishida met Isomura through Yoshihara and learned that The possibility of Ninomiya Kayoko's situation."
"Then Hishita approached Kayoko in a planned way."
"At the wine table, don't men often boast about their past sexual history? When they are drunk, they may just say that the woman is idle at home and hang up to see something. if."
"But will you really take such nonsense on the wine table seriously?..."
"No, I don't know. But that woman is not an ordinary person. She is a high-ranking lady who works in an important position in a bank. Ishida may have approached her with both sex and money. The reality is that Ninomiya Kayoko My body and mind were plotted together in that empty home, and 450 million yuan and my life were taken away."
"So, the bastard Ishida is really a bad villain."
"Well, from the beginning, I planned to suck it hard, and I would kill it when I sucked enough."
The search headquarters, which had been dull for a long time, came back to life.
First of all, Ishida Kazuo's photo was secretly protected.Those who have seen his face are two people from Tama Agricultural Cooperative who participated in the trip to Tohoku, the employees of Sendai Green Hotel, the residents of Omiya Aobasou Apartment, the manager of the Hanazono Apartment Building in Shibuya Ward, and the residents of the adjacent room, etc.
Let the above-mentioned people identify Ishida's photos.The members of the Tama Agricultural Cooperative and the staff of the Sendai Hotel had met more than two years ago, so the impression has faded, and the managers and residents of the apartment and building said they looked like, but they were not sure if they were the same person.
Whether it was Hishida in Aoba-so or in Garden Apartment Building, it seems that his hairstyle and clothing have changed.Even Takematsu Kyomi, who got the necklace from "someone who seems to be Hishida", couldn't say anything because she was caught in a cage when she received the gift suddenly and couldn't see his face clearly.She's showing no confidence.
However, just "seeming" is already a strong support for the search headquarters that has no clues so far.
After discussing with the Second Search Division, it was decided to call Ishida to stand trial for the time being and bring him in for an investigation.This is a meeting between the search headquarters and a suspect who finally appeared on the search line after a long period of searching.
The interrogator was Okawa, who had been perseveringly pursuing since the beginning of the search, and Hexi was assisted by him.
If you go to the investigation headquarters that handles homicide cases all at once, it will make the other party mentally alert, so I called the second investigation department that reviewed Yoshihara Benji for suspected bribery last time.
He seemed to have gotten the news from Yoshihara, "Maybe you will be passed on at some point", so Ishida's attitude was very calm.
He wore a plain black suit and a plain tie, which he had put on deliberately because he was going to the police, and it was safe to do so in clothing.The face is also very ordinary, completely dressed like an ordinary employee.At first glance, it is hard to tell that this man is the leading young and shrewd section chief in Musashihara City.
However, Okawa's keen eyes scanned the watch on his mouth, and found that it was a high-end Swiss-made product worth hundreds of thousands of yuan.
This is by no means a "single-item luxury" style of boasting, but pretending to be ordinary in front of the police, but forgetting the watch that constitutes a part of the body.
If it is true that he is "pretending to be ordinary" in order to be interrogated, then this is an unusual adversary.Okawa hid this thought in his heart and greeted Ishida.
After greeting each other when they met for the first time, Okawa immediately flattered each other and said:
"The industry of industrial waste disposal can be said to be the cornerstone of a modern highly mechanized civilized society."
"No, it's not so much a cornerstone, it's better to say it's a butt wipe. We are just people who work hard behind our backs." Ishida was praised by the investigating police officer and replied with a wry smile.
"Does the mentioned industrial waste, such as vegetables and food thrown out by restaurants and hotels, also include it?"
"No, among the wastes generated by the production activities of enterprises, the offal of vegetables and fish produced by restaurants and restaurants, as well as food residues, etc., are classified as general wastes. The so-called waste materials refer to large garbage, crude Garbage, burning residue, sludge, excrement, waste oil, waste acid, waste caustic, animal carcasses, and other filth or useless matter, whether solid or liquid."
Ishida explained part of his professional knowledge.
"Oh, are animal carcasses also waste?"
"yes."
"So, the corpses of victims abandoned by criminals should also be considered waste."
"No, a human corpse is a corpse, and it cannot be considered waste. This should be your specialty."
"Yes. If human corpses are considered waste, then the corpses killed by professional killers should be regarded as industrial waste. Let alone, this is a bad joke. But I want to ask Let me ask, don't you know a woman named Ninomiya Kayoko?"
After going around the central topic for a long time, I cut into the core issue at once.
"Second Duke treats you well...?"
Okawa looked forward to the reaction of the blow.He stared, wanting to see the effect he received, while Ishida seemed to be asking in his memory, although he couldn't see that he was deliberately pretending not to know, but at least he couldn't feel any reaction in his expression.
"It's a female loan officer at the Omiya Branch of the Sekio Bank."
Okawa added.Once the opponent dodges the first blow, the effect of the pursuit will become smaller and smaller.
"I don't know, what happened to that woman?"
"Then let me ask another question. Did you travel to Matsushima around March 13th the year before last?"
"Matsushima? Is it Matsushima in the northeast?" Ishida still didn't respond.
"yes."
"I have been to Songdo, but that was a long time ago."
"When did you go?"
"Looks like nine or ten years ago. Was on a wedding trip with my ex-wife."
"So, where were you around March thirteenth of the year before last?"
"I can't remember such a sudden question. I can't remember everything I do every day, and it happened two years ago. What happened on March 13th?"
石田终于悟到，自己是因为“与吉原的关系”以外的事情被传唤来的。
“同您长得相似的人曾与二宫加代子一起在松岛乘过游览船。”
“这真是胡来！我怎么会和素不相识的女人去乘根本未去过的松岛那地方的游览船呢？！”
石田的脸有点儿涨红了。但这和本川所期待的反应是不同的一种兴奋的表情。
“是啊，但既然是游览船，偶然坐在一条船上也是有可能的。”
“所以，我已经说过，就年的三月我没去过松岛。”
“这已经知道了。可是您有个重大的问题没有说呀，谁确地说，是没有反问我。”
“重大的问题？”一丝不安的影子，从石田的脸上掠过，“是的。您为什么不进一步打听二宫加代子的事情呢？既然问到您与一名素不相识的女子什么时间在什么地方在一起呆过，那么一般是先回答是或不是，然后必然要反问，为什么同那女人在一起就成了问题呢？与素不相识的女子在一起呆过，完全不是什么问题。问题倒应该是，那个素不相识的女子怎么了？是她有了什么异常的举动，或是她本身发生了什么异常变化……”
“那女人怎么了？”石田的表情这才有些严肃了。
“那您为什么不早些提出这个问题？”
“那，那是……因为对于素不相识的人怎么样并不感兴趣。”
“可是现在正在怀疑您与那女人曾在一起呆过。”
“这是没有根据的怀疑。我既没有去过松岛，也不知道什么叫二宫的女人。那女人干了什么。怎么的了，我并不知道。”石田突然正颜厉色地说。
“即使您不感兴趣，我也要告诉您，二宫加代子被杀害了，然后被人投入了武藏原市区千川上水之中。”
“被杀了……？”看样子石田对告诉他的事情，一时间还不能理解。
“是啊，被人勒死的。”
“可、可是我，全然……”
“有情况表明在松岛同您在一起呆过。”
“在什么松岛……该不是在怀疑我吧。”
石田好不容易体会到了自己被置于其中的这种深陷的境地。刚刚泛上淡淡红潮的面颊，又苍白起来。
“现在是，在二宫加代子的周围只找到了一个'松岛的男子'。”
“这真是讹赖，怀疑我杀人真是天大的笑话。”
“您是不是租过涩谷区富之谷的花园公寓大厦的503号房间？”
“我在武藏原市有房子，没有必要租那个公寓。”
“准确点儿说，是租了那房间里的桌子，作为联络处使用的。”
“我用不着那样的联络处。”
“那么石田先生，您到高知一带旅行过没有？”
“高知？是土佐的高知县吗？”对一切都加以否认的石田，开姑有点儿反应了。
"yes."
"Been there."
出乎意料之外，石田直率地点了点头。
大川又趁势追问下去。
“那是什么时候？”
“每年去一、两次。过世的母亲是那里出生的，我的老家也在那里。”
“高知的什么地方？”
“虽然是高知，却是最里边，靠近爱媛县境的一个叫杣之内的山区小镇。”
“最近一次到那里去是在什么时候？”
“是今年五月初，是去吃香鱼的。”
“香鱼？”
“杣之内的香鱼是天下第一的。每年到了季节就去。谷州就从市镇的中心流过。吃了那里的香鱼，就再不想吃别的东西了。”
石田已经忘记自已是在什么地方，谈起了母亲家乡的美味。看来他是个相当不错的美食家呢。
“蟹子怎么样？”
“蟹子？”
“那条谷川里捉不到螃蟹吗？”
“当然有。谷川是河蟹和藻蟹的天国，把蟹子抓来之后，在河滩上用篝火烤着吃。那味道就甭提啦！”
石田还不知道这话会把自己逼到一个什么样的地步，讲得快要流口水了。然而用火烤不透的蟹子，却是肺肝蛭幼虫的巢穴。二宫加代子吃了它而受到感染的概率是很高的。
对石田的嫌疑在不断浓缩，但是还没有能够掐住他脖颈子的高招儿。肺肝蛭也好、线状皮炎也好，都不是高知地区特有的地方病。继续在石田的身边不论怎样地探查，从二宫加代子身上吸走的四亿五千万元，依然无影无踪。
这么大数字的巨款是没法隐藏彻底的。如果石田是罪犯，那钱必定会放置在什么地方。虽然他与吉原弁次有一些暖昧的金钱往来，但是钱数相差悬殊。现在他住在武藏原市内公寓的两室一厅的套房里，过着独身生活，这对如今的他来说，是够俭朴的了。
有时候他也在市内的酒吧露面，但好象没有什么固定的女人。不过是在假日里与熟识的酒吧女郎结伴，驾驶他那辆先驱牌DX高级轿车夫兜兜风而巳。
石田的手迹也秘密地弄到了手，与仙台旅馆的住宿登记卡上的笔迹进行了对照。卡片上的笔迹是为了隐蔽而做了假，使鉴定发生了困准。只是在笔顺、书写的线条以及笔致（起笔与收笔时用力的程度）等方面有相似之点。
此外，在调查中将秘密录下的石田的声音与多摩农协的会员在松岛游览船上偷录的菱田和也的声音加以对照，发现频率和音量等，相似之点很多，但尚不能肯定是同一个人。游览船上的录音，不仅录音本身效果不好，而且有杂音影响，作为对照的资料，价值不大。
既然菱田在两年前与二宫加代子在仙台投宿时已经有意将笔迹加以伪装，那么从这一事实来看，他是有计划地向加代子接近的。这从吉原弁次的往来银行曾是矶村诚次当支行长的关央银行神田支行这个吻合点上，可以看出其中有密切的联系。
于是矶村被传唤到搜查本部，追问他这方面的问题：
——您认识武藏原市的卫生科长石田一男氏吗？
“曾由吉原先生介绍给我一次。”
——在什么地方？
“是我调到神田支行不久，吉原先生领他到银行里来的。”
——后来又见过面吗？
“又见过一两次，都是和吉原先生一起。”
——也是在银行吗？
“不，记得是在一起吃饭。”
——是因为有什么事情要办吗？
“也没有什么特别的事情。为了与主顾联系感情，我们常常进行私人接触。”
——您常与吉原氏见面吗？
“他是我们银行里重要的客户。”
——同他一起喝酒的时候有过吗？
“有过。因为在一起喝酒可以产生独特的联系效果。”
——喝酒的时候也谈论过女人吧。
“啊，因为是在酒桌上。不过您为什么要问这种事？”
——二宫加代子与您的关系，对吉原先生和石田先生讲过吗？
“不！那是我与原来的部下之间的错误，未对任何人讲过。既是我的耻辱，又会伤害女方的。”
——您能肯定绝对没有泄漏过吗？
"this one……"
——怎么，这是个非常重大的问题。您能有信心说绝对没有对外人泄漏过吗？
“我想可以肯定。”
——想是不行的，您的无意识的话，也许就与此有关系。怎么样，能肯定绝对没有说出去过吗？
“如、如果这么说……”
--How about it?
“因为是酒桌上，一下子不注意，无意识地说走了嘴也有可能。”
——酒桌上吉原和石田都在吗？
"I don't remember exactly."
——请一定想清楚，也许正是因为您的失言，二宫加代子被杀了。
“什么，会有这事？”
——真的，这种可能性非常大。
“您在有银行内部的人在场的时候，当然不会说这种事情。可是在喜欢谈论风流韵事的人在场的酒席上，可能不小心随着别人的兴头，失言了吧。吉原弁次就是个喜欢淫猥之谈的人。在他和石田在场的情况下，您没有泄漏与二宫加代子的情事吧？”
“也说不定有过。”
——比方说二宫加代子现在是独身。现在去接近她，很容易到手什么的。在醉醺醺的时候不负责任地信口开河说了也未可知。
“那、那话没说过。”
——那么您说了什么？
"I don't remember exactly."
——不当的失言您都说忘记了，这样好吗？这是对杀人案件的调查。二宫加代子被人榨取了四亿五千万元，连生命也被夺走了。这正是同您分手之后发生的事。有迹象表明，犯人是在得知二宫加代子与您分手之后才去接近她的。如果您还紧紧地抱住她不放，那么就不致了陷于这样悲惨的境地。
“您是说石田先生是罪犯吗？”
——进行询问的是我，您对石田说了些什么？
“我记得好象是说过，分手的那女人怪可怜的，谁若是有合适的人，给她找个伴儿吧。”
——您说了之后石田和吉原有什么表示？
“吉原先生说，如果不嫌他老，正合适。然后笑着对石田先生说，你是个单身汉，你怎么样？”
——石田有什么反应？
“石田先生也笑了，他说那我就先补个缺吧，不过每个人都是酒桌上开的玩笑，这些话都不能当真。”
——那么您说了二宫加代子的名字和住址了吗？
“大半是说了。”
——石田是不是详细地打听了二宫加代子的特征和性格什么的？
“没有特意打听，不过……”
——不过什么？
“我也有些醉了，可能是说得很详细。难道石田先生真的把酒桌上的话……”
——您是把二宫加代子奉献给您的青春和珍贵的感情都作为酒吞吃掉了。
“我、我设想这么做。”
——那么是什么打算？难道您不是为了保住自己而抛弃了她，然后又把她当做酒席宴上的淫猥谈话的资料了吗？
“刑事先生，这些情况请不要对银行方面公开，我实在是做梦也没有想到会是这个样子。请多关照。”
矶村一下子跪到传讯室的地板上，流下了眼泪。
总之，根据矶村的证词，已经判明石田知道矶村与加代子之间的情事及他们的关系的结束。因此他暗中藏着色与利的双刃刀，把加代子当做一个正合适的猎物而靠近过去的。
