Seeing Dianzi bowed his head in silence, Ryuo said slowly, "Muratani Ryogo's disappearance was discussed with Hiroko from the beginning, and what you saw on the night of the 11th was exactly what they discussed. " "Then, Muratani Ryogo and Hiroko...?" Dianzi was taken aback. "Yeah, I don't know if Ashazi found out that the two are secretly in love. Anyway, Ashazi is a tough wife. Muratani Ryogo and Hiroko have to secretly wait for the opportunity to live together. They must leave when Ashazi doesn't know it. Not like this If so, Ashazi will have a hysterical attack, and he doesn't know what will happen."

"Do you still remember, on the night of the 12th, after Ashazi came out of the room very late, Muratani Ryogo and Hiroko also came out, this was discussed in advance." "Muratani Ryogo went straight to Odawara Station, and Hiroko went back to the hotel. She planned to return to Tokyo with Ashazi and find another chance to escape. This way, contacting Ryogo would not be discovered by Ashazi. If the two of them disappeared at the same time, it would be so fierce Ah Shazi will cause trouble if he finds out." That's the case, Dianzi nodded, feeling that the world is so big and full of wonders.

In the distance, car lights can be seen.Liangwu's disappearance and Hiroko's disappearance merged together, which had nothing to do with Tian Cang's death, just like the two lights that shot forward. "So, where are the two of you now?" "I live in a place in Toyohashi. I asked Nitta, the manager of the building joint-stock company you know, to investigate this matter." "Nitta?" Dianzi's eyes widened at the unexpected name. "According to Nitta, the two are living very happily now, and the Tiancang incident has nothing to do with them."

Long Fu paused for a moment, looked at Dianzi from the corner of his eye and smiled slyly. "You may be surprised to hear the name Nitta. He helped us a lot in this matter. He helped us investigate Liangwu and Guangzi." "What kind of help...?" Dianzi wanted to ask, but stopped suddenly.I remembered the scene when I met Nitta carrying a suitcase at Tokyo Station not long ago.At that time, Nitta did say that he had gone to Kyoto, and he also inquired about Sakino, and he looked very happy with a smile. "Xintian went to Inuyama to prove that Kuniko Hataka was not at home, that is, whether Kuniko was at home on the night of July 12."

Dianzi had already realized this, but just wanted Long Fu to say it. "Then, why did you entrust this matter to Nitta?" "Nita is very smart, and he was a member of the fellow magazine group at Kyoto University in the past, and he also knew Zenichi Hataka. I told him about Tian Cang and asked him to help find out some of the history. I think he is investigating Kuniko Hataka The most suitable candidate. I don't have that much time, well, let's not talk about that." "No wonder, when I told you that Xintian greeted you; you smiled strangely, so that's the case." Dianzi stared at Longfu and said.

"That's how it is. I can grasp the fact that Hataka Kuniko was not at home the day Tian Cang's accident happened, and I can judge that she is suspected of committing a crime, but there is no evidence. I made up my mind to talk to Kuniko directly, but I can't. Face to face, I sent her a letter, saying that I wanted to have an interview with her, and the signature was signed by Bai Jing's subordinate. I don't know how Bangzi received the letter, but she replied to me immediately. By the way, you Look at this postcard." Long Fu took out a postcard folded in half from his pocket and handed it to Dianzi.

The lights inside the car are dim, but the pen writing can still be seen clearly. "Xianshiyuan is the place I designated, and she must meet me in Xianshiyuan, and I will tell you the reason later. It can also be said that the key to this matter lies in Xianshiyuan. I think she is also aware of this. The meeting time is She decides." Dianzi looked at the postcard and said, "From 9:30 to 9:40 in the evening, I must come at this time. I wrote it twice." "Yes, the danger of this operation stems from that statement." "why?" Dianzi raised his head to meet Longfu's eyes, Dianzi hurriedly lowered his head to look at the postcard.

"The two of us were almost killed just now, in the same way as that truck driver Kinoshita." "Kinoshita?" Dianzi's voice was hoarse, she looked away from the postcard, and stared at the dark night ahead without blinking. "Oh, in the dark night, two very strong lights suddenly came out. Sakamoto got down from the cab with a stick in his hand and hit his head hard. The strong lights made it hard for you to tell what kind of car it was. We often There is this thing, I mistakenly thought it was an ordinary car, and after passing by, it surprised you, it was a large truck. The light was too strong, so that you couldn’t see when it was passing by you, and when you were around, hit your head with a stick, you stood If we didn’t react there, we would almost die, and the two of us almost got hit by this trick just now, it’s really dangerous.”

Dianzi stared blankly ahead, and the scene of Long Fu and her falling to the ground at once appeared in front of his eyes. "The way to kill Tian Cang is similar to this. At first, Bangzi wanted to kill Tian Cang. He planned to put sleeping pills in the beer for him to drink. When he fell asleep, he strangled him to death. Tian Cang, who didn't know the truth, drank the beer and went out. , Bangzi followed behind him. When he walked to Miyanoshita, he accidentally saw the delivery truck driven by Sakamoto and Kinoshita. The two carried Tian Cang onto the truck. After falling asleep, Bangzi thought of asking Sakamoto to help kill Tian Cang. Sakamoto hated this brother-in-law who abused her sister and forced her to commit suicide. At the same time, he sympathized with Kuniko who often came and went, so he agreed to help her. Kinoshita, he took Tian Cang to Xianshiyuan by truck, killed him there, returned, and threw him under the cliff of Fangdao. 50 minutes, and that's how I draw this inference."

"Why not kill Tian Cang on the spot instead of going to Xianshiyuan to kill him? Think about our field trip to Hakone to understand this. The place where Tian Cang's body was found was a mountain on one side and a cliff on the other. The road is only two and a half meters wide, winding. Of course, there are traces of trucks. But, at the end of the way, there is a wood processing factory. Don't forget this. The country road is very narrow, and the truck can't turn around halfway there. Yes, you have to go to the flat field in the courtyard of the wood processing factory and turn back, but the people in the wood processing factory said that no trucks came that night. Tian Cang drank sleeping pills and said that he committed suicide or died in an accident. No matter what, he must get off the cliff. It makes sense to throw it up and down. As we surmise, a blow to the head is not the same as a fall on a rock, and that's the key point."

"In the beginning, it took 30 minutes for Sakamoto and Kuniko to discuss killing Tian Cang. At this time, the waitress said that Kuniko returned to Junli Pavilion before Tian Cang. Then Kuniko slipped out of the hotel and crossed the river to the opposite side of Xizhuang. I used the cable car there to find Sakamoto who was waiting there, drove to Sengokuhara, where I used an iron wrench to drop Takura Chien, pulled it back to Miyanoshita, and threw it off the cliff.” "Sakamoto's truck was delayed for an hour and a half because of this, and Bangzi used the same method to return to Junli Pavilion as if nothing had happened." "So, Tatsuo, did you start to suspect Kuniko when you went to Hakone for a field trip?" Adjacent hotel guests, instead of using the cable car, waded across the river.Dianzi remembered Long Fu's words again. "Since you know so much, why didn't you tell me at all, you are so bad!" Longfu smiled bitterly at Dianzi and said, "Lizi, look, it's the same old problem again." Dianzi gesticulated and said seriously, "Wait, so, did Sakamoto come to kill us just now?" "I believe so. After reading my letter, Kuniko discussed with Sakamoto. He had a premonition that Sakamoto, who knew the truth, planned to kill us. Kuniko also planned to commit suicide in an accident. That is to say, Sakamoto killed Kinoshita who was ripping off After that, he fled to Bangzi's house." Dianzi picked up the postcard on his lap again, read it over and returned it to Longfu. "Most of the clues are clear, but there are still a few points that are not clear. One of them is who is the man who helped Akita Gojome to manage the family property?" "He is Kuniko's cousin-in-law in Inushan. Just like what we have seen, he is an honest farmer who respects the knowledgeable and educated Kuniko. I don't know the details. He will do whatever Kuniko asks him to do. This is Xintian near Wuchengmu It was investigated." "Yes, I once doubted the editor-in-chief Shirai. Maybe I'm sorry for the editor-in-chief, but I can't figure out why he didn't come to work. Don't you think the editor-in-chief is suspicious too, Ryuufu?" "It may be a good thing for the editor-in-chief. Let's talk to him after the incident. I think it's not easy for him." "It's not easy" Long Fu said the words very emphatically. The car moved forward quietly, and the lights of the farmhouse flickered. Dianzi said again: "Long Fu, there is still one thing I don't understand. Why did Tian Cang Liangzi commit suicide?" "I don't know the real reason. Is it possible to judge this way. That is to say, Yoshiko doesn't love Tian Cang. She was Zenichi Hataka's lover. Rather than loving Tian Cang, she hates Tian Cang. Because Tian Cang is only in her name She also knew that Tian Cang had betrayed her and had that kind of relationship with Kuniko, and she had been abused by Tian Cang, so she was desperate and finally chose to commit suicide. Her younger brother Kozo Sakamoto, in order to avenge his sister , I wanted to kill Tian Cang a long time ago. I don’t know the details, whether Ryoko, Kunizi, or Tanaka and Tian Cang are dead, all the insiders are dead, and when people are dead, I can’t tell. Find out what happened." Long Fu leaned on the soft chair, sighed, as if he was tired of talking, he looked at Dianzi and stopped talking. The bright street lights of Odawara in the distance appeared ahead.The car slowed down, entered the block after a while, and stopped in front of the Odawara Police Station.
