The Fake Crazy Murder 松本清张 2553Words 2018-03-15
It seems that there is no need to explain in detail the story of Takeo Sawada's murderous intentions towards the familiar Kobayashi Road.The murders that are common in newspapers, apart from money interests, mostly arise from love disputes.In previous news reports, the word "infatuation" was always used.Takeo Sawada killed Luzi, but it was also a common "infatuated" murder.You can say that it was because the money on the bed was exhausted, and she was cold to him; or Zetian found out that the woman had another man, and he would do whatever he wanted in a fit of anger.If it's a combination of both, the motivation is even stronger.Zetian barely set aside a certain amount of salary to pay tribute, and there were also some illegal acts that might cause him to lose his job.He took a lot of risks to please her, so once he found out that she was unfaithful, even a sensible middle-aged man like him would have murderous intentions.

Anyway, one evening, Takeo Sawada hanged her before going to work in her apartment.Fortunately, he never let anyone see her going in and out of this room.This point, he usually confirmed from Lu Zikou. "This apartment is so convenient. No one knows that you come to my place..." She said with a smile. It was this condition that gave him courage.No matter how impulsive he is, if he kills someone, he will consider his own safety.If anyone knew he was coming to her apartment, he'd have to restrain himself, because of course he didn't want to go to jail.The apartment, designed to keep visitors out of sight, also facilitated the motive for the crime.

Zetian saw the woman dying, and then looked around the room.As long as it is possible for him to reveal his hidden items, he must not leave them behind.He remembered never giving her anything that would reveal his identity.It's been a while since she took guests to the place where she works, and hasn't been there for a long time.The waitress in the lounge was killed, and the first police investigation must be the customer who often called her.And the order starts from the newest guest.As far as this is concerned, it would be a long time before it was his turn to investigate the arrow, and the alibi at this time today has also been arranged.What I am most afraid of is leaving here the evidence that cannot be shirked, and it will be impossible to argue.

Is there anything given to her that might become physical evidence?he thinks.He was standing beside her who was dead.She lay with her chest open.He felt that her breasts were so broad. right!Zetian remembered the pendant, the Persian planetarium he bought in Athens.It is found in various local products such as luxurious carpets and toy machetes.It cannot be found in Japan.And in the previous theft incidents, the registered items were registered in the police station of the jurisdiction.Most undeniable is a small scratch on the edge.Even if you find the same thing in Japan, that little scratch is the only one in the whole world.

If the police came to check this room and found that planetarium, it would be a disaster.Although it is not the same police station, but because it is a rare item, the police must do everything possible to find out the ins and outs of this item.In this way, the police officers on Zetian's side must also hear the news.Thinking of this, Zetian almost got up desperately. Usually placed on a three-way mirror stand, this moment is gone.Where did you hide it?Lu Zi always put it casually.Was it passed on to someone else?Zetian felt the tide of blood rushing straight up, and his ears kept ringing.Such a small thing, maybe it will strangle me around my neck...

He pulled out the drawer of the mirror table and turned it over on the tatami.All kinds of cosmetics were scattered all over the place at once.When he found the Persian planetarium from it, he seemed to go up to the sky.Then all the strength in my body disappeared at once.I think the reason must be that there are too many things on the mirror table, and it gets in the way, so I throw it into the drawer.She probably never told anyone that it was given to her by Zetian.She can keep her mouth shut about such matters. Sawada stuffed the molded planetarium into his pocket almost as if it was his lifeline.

The hapless thief was caught again.It was also at the moment when he was breaking through the empty door, he was seen by neighbors, and a group of neighbors surrounded him, so he had to obediently arrest him. This time it was a case in Shinagawa, so it was the police station here who caught him.He has long been used to it, and he seems to be quite straightforward, and he has told the truth about several cases.But because there are so many cases, the interrogation took a lot of time.For several days in a row, he asked for questioning. One day, the criminal policeman who was taking the record of the interrogation seemed to be suffering from indigestion, and left the meeting with his hands on his belly.The thief was so bored, he just reached out and picked up the newspaper that was placed there casually to read.

He still opened the social version.The headline was a car accident in which the private car was cut in half and the front of the truck was flattened.Three people were killed and two were seriously injured.It was a big car accident, the thief shook his head and looked down, but it turned out to be "the murder of the barmaid, all clues were interrupted". Then looking down, the murder seemed to have happened a week ago, and the victim was a woman in the bar.The relationship between men and women and the regular customers of the lounge are currently being filtered, but there are no clues of any serious involvement. The task force is collecting evidence from various sources.Suddenly, the thief was startled.The place where the woman was killed was the apartment, and this address seemed familiar to him.

Isn't this address that apartment building? I remember being a barmaid too.Because the case was not reported for the first time, there are no photos, but it is indeed the woman.From the mirror drawer, I only found the room with 3,000 yen. The current investigation seems to be very difficult. The victim's relationship with the guests is being filtered, but there are no conclusive clues.Did they also check the head of the Persian planetarium?Of course he must have been the first to find him, maybe with an alibi. The interrogator came back with a sad face. "Hey, boy, are you reading the newspaper?"

The policeman gave a sharp reprimand. "I'm sorry. Mr. Police, I was surprised when I saw the report of the maid's murder. I know a little bit about the woman's house—it's the part that hasn't been recruited yet." "What, are you on good terms with her?" "No, no, it's not like that. I stepped on her, and I took three thousand dollars." "when?" "It's been... three months." "Three months ago, that was a long time before she was killed. What a pity. If it is a little later, maybe it can give me some clues."

"So it's not broken yet?" "Just like it says in the paper." "I would like to ask you, did you find a round object of this size in the murdered woman's room?" The thief drew the size and shape with his fingers. "what is that?" "I saw it on the three-sided mirror stand when I entered the women's room. I don't know what it is. There are scales like a ruler on it." "So what?" "To tell you the truth, it was something I stole from a company manager's house in Yamanote. No, no, Mr. Police, I have already been sentenced for that incident." "Hey, hello." The policeman finally became serious at this moment. "Tell me, why did the thing you stole end up in the woman's room?" "That time, I was arrested by the police station not long ago, and that thing was taken back with the other one. Of course, it was returned to the owner. I was also wondering, how could I run into that woman's room? Said It might have been given to the woman by the section chief. I did see it on the three-sided mirror, so I must have found it at the murder scene." "Wait. That thing, you draw a picture to see." The criminal police handed the pen and paper to the thief.The thief took a lot of effort to draw it.The criminal police watched it for a long time before sending it to the captain of the criminal police. The captain reported to the superior again, so the project center received a call. "Yes, it's like a medal or a badge. Didn't you find it in the victim's room? That's weird. The thief I caught here can't be wrong. That is to say, after the thief went in, he might Someone, maybe the murderer, took it away....Yes, maybe the murderer took it away for fear of becoming a witness when he committed the crime....The name? We don't know either. It's strange Yes, it looks like a watch...Yes, yes, the thief said that he accidentally touched it with a knife, and there was a scratch, which is absolutely unmistakable. He also thought that there must be a record in the records of the police station, what is it called? , and the name of the holder... yes, then we will wait for your kindness."
