Chapter 48 Chapter Eleven

5:00 p.m., Fukami Town Police Station.There is a large pile of rice balls and pickles on the desk.Kuchiki is listening to Mori Takahiro's report. "The whereabouts of Yoko Yumioka and her son Satoru Yumioka before they were killed are known. They went to Kobashi Clinic in 2-chome. The director of the clinic, Kobashi, said that Yumioka Satoru had a cold, and Yoko took him there. To see a doctor. At that time, Yoko had no money, so she said she would pay next week. Yoko often pays on credit.” It seems that Yoko's life is quite embarrassing. Then Kuchiki began to listen to Tanaka's report: "There are 17 male classmates of Yoko, and 8 of them are still in this county. Four of the cars driven by these 8 people are white. I have seen all 8 of them. There are records of inquiries, but one of them, Eiji Mochida, refused to answer questions."

"reject?" "He said that everything that should be said was told to a policeman named Murase, and told us to go to Murase. He also said confidently that Murase asked him to say this." Kuchiki's eyebrows twitched slightly—was spit on by Sanban.So, Murase doesn't think Eiji Mochida is suspected of a crime? Kuchiki looked at Tanaka and asked, "What color is Mochida's car?" "White, white Nissan Skyline." Mori Longhong stood up abruptly: "Arrest this kid! The third class didn't put a sign that no one else can touch him!" Tanaka also said: "There is no need to worry so much! Whoever catches the murderer is the winner!"

Kuchiki was silent. "Squad leader!" Mori Takahiro and Tanaka shouted in unison, "If Class 3 solves this case, it would be a loss to the dignity of Class 1!" Kuchiki looked at Mori Takahiro, then at Tanaka. "There's one thing I can't let go of." "What? What's the matter?" "A small hole in a darkroom." After Tanaka and Mori Takahiro looked at each other for a moment, they turned their faces to Kuchiki at the same time. Mori Takahiro asked: "Squad leader, do you think Akihisa Yasuda is the murderer?"
