Chapter 21 Section 04

The investigation in Okayama has been entrusted to the local police, and Totsukawa and his party are responsible for investigating the situation around the victim. Tajima Kyuichiro's wife, Akiko, hanged herself one night last year.Although she didn't leave a suicide note, people around her said that she had cried many times because of her husband's conduct, so her death could not be separated from this reason. "The couple met and got married when they were working in the same company." Kamei reported to Totsukawa while looking at the notes in his hand, "Six years ago, when Tajima was 29 years old and Yamiko was 24 years old The two got married. Tian Dao was the section chief at the time, and Ya Muzi was in the first year of joining the company. Ya Muzi is pretty, but she is also a quiet and introverted person. Tajima is indeed not very suitable. A friend of Tajima told me that in the fifth year of marriage, Tiandao admitted that he was tired of his current wife."

"Then does he have a regular lover?" "He seems to be dating a lot of women, but the one with the closest connection is a girl named Wanlizi Xiaosi." Kamei showed Totsukawa a photo.The photo is a group photo of the victim Tajima and a 27-year-old woman side by side. "This girl looks good too!" "That's Mariko Kodera. She works as a table hostess in a nightclub in Ginza. It is said that she is also on TV from time to time or something." "When did her relationship with Tajima begin?" "The details are unclear, but they have been together around March last year. Yamiko, who committed suicide, had a good relationship with a woman named Junjiang Mimura when she was in college. She often went to complain to her. I think it should be okay to ask her. Get more detailed information."

"Okay! Then let's go meet her!" Totsukawa couldn't bear his temper and got up and left. June Mimura, 30, still single, works at a law firm in Shinjuku.She is tall, has a very mature and rational face, and always winks her eyes involuntarily when she speaks. "I was really happy to learn that Tajima was killed," Jun Jiang said. "Is it because he caused Yamuzi to commit suicide last year?" After Totsukawa asked, Jun Jiang nodded and said, "She was killed by Tajima." "Why? Didn't Yamuzi not get divorced and choose to commit suicide?"

"I once told her to divorce him as soon as possible, and then ask for compensation. As long as we entrust our firm to handle this divorce case, we can't live with a compensation of 100 million yen. But she didn't listen at all, it was her The heart is too soft, and in the end I can only compromise." "Do you know a woman named Mariko Kodera?" "Uh, um..." Jun Jiang didn't know what to say for a while, "I think the direct cause of Ya Muzi's suicide was that woman." "Why? I heard that Tajima is not the only lover." "Because after Tajima and that woman got very close, Ya Muzi received many harassing calls. As soon as Ya Muzi picked up, the other party either hung up without saying anything, or said something like 'you're going to die' It was because of this that Yamiko became a bit insane in the end."

"Then can I understand that the one who made the harassing calls is Wan Lizi Kodera?" "Amuzi once met that woman. To be precise, it should be said that the woman arranged it specially. That day, she suddenly appeared in front of Yamuzi and said to her, I want to be with Tian Dao, please stand aside. Harassing phone calls It has also increased since then, so it is certain that the woman hit it." "However, after Ya Muzi passed away, Mariko Kodera did not marry Tajima, did she?" "Yeah. But I've heard rumors that that woman bought Tajima an apartment for 30 million yen, and she often went in and out together."

"So the person who went to Okayama with Tajima for the last time should also be Mariko Kodera." "I don't know about that, you can ask the person directly." "Okay, that's it!" Totsukawa said.
