Chapter 21 chapter Ten

At about 3:00 in the morning, Yamamoto had just returned to the dormitory when the phone rang, as if waiting for him to come back. Kasai's voice was frustrated.He said that tonight, in a parking lot in Ikebukuro, he sent one million to the middle-aged man who blackmailed him. After the man gave him a video tape, he said that the second one would cost two million. "Help me, please! If this continues, all my property will be swept away by them!" Yamamoto lay on the tatami and listened to Kasai's crying, feeling terribly annoyed.The reason why he didn't hang up the phone immediately was because he thought of the 400,000 yen. "No matter how much money you give, I will not kill for you. Didn't you give me 400,000 yuan? I won't go if I spend it."

"You can spend it as you like, it's already your money anyway." "What?" Yamamoto was stunned.Knowing that he drank too much, he worried that he didn't understand Kasai's meaning, so he said, "I mean, even if I don't kill people for you, can I still spend your 400,000?" Consciously contains a bit of humbleness. "Of course! I never thought that 400,000 people would be able to ask someone to kill someone for me. That's a little bit of a joke. Thank you for listening to me so seriously." "Just listen to what he's going to say." Yamamoto made up his mind.Japan is not an uncivilized country. I have never heard of a killer who can be hired for 400,000 yuan. The gangster has a way of hiring a killer.By the way, maybe Kasai didn't intend to kill at all, but just wanted to find someone he didn't know to vent his depression. Even if he really planned to kill, if Yamamoto didn't say anything, the conversation between the two would eventually end. It can only become something like psychological counseling.

It couldn't be more relaxing if he was just someone to listen to Kasai venting his distress.Accepting the 400,000 yen cannot be said to be illegal, and there is nothing wrong with conscience. "Give this 400,000 to Shizue!" Yamamoto's heart beat faster, and his vigilance towards Kasai disappeared a lot, and Kasai's voice didn't sound so disgusting anymore. "How about listening to my plan? Just listening." Kasai said. There is no reason to refuse - just listen, anyway, Yamamoto will not kill for him. To be honest, Yamamoto was not uninterested in Kasai's plan.What happened to Kasai's "crime without leaving traces"?This impulse of curiosity has been there since the first time I answered Kasai's phone call.

"Then I'll just listen, just listen." Yamamoto said. Hearing what Yamamoto said, Kasai took a deep breath: "What I call 'crime without leaving traces' is by no means difficult. There is only one rule that needs to be followed, and you, as the specific executor of the murder, follow the case Everyone involved has nothing to do with it, whether it was before, during, or after the incident." Kasai spoke so calmly, Yamamoto couldn't help swallowing. Kasai went on to say: "Did you know that the lowest rate of solving a homicide case is accidental crime. Except for the moment when the case happened, there was no contact between the murderer and the victim. It can be seen that as long as a careful planning Accidentally commit a crime, and be careful not to leave any evidence at the scene, and the police will not be able to catch you."

At this point, Kasai paused for a moment, and seeing that Yamamoto was still listening carefully, he continued: "You don't know the middle-aged man who blackmailed me at all, and of course he doesn't know that there is such a person as you in the world. You just Play an accidental crime and kill him! This is the backbone of my plan. How, when, and where to call him out are all arranged by me. As for the murder weapon, gloves, clothes, etc., I will Will send it to you." "I see!" Yamamoto thought.Theoretically speaking, what Kasai said might make sense, but even if no evidence was left at the scene, what if someone saw it?Besides, Kasai still thought of the problem too simply.First of all, Yamamoto has a criminal record for murder. If the police can't find any clues, they will definitely track him down.Since he was released from prison for more than a year, Yamamoto has felt that the police are paying attention to him more than once.

Thinking of this, Yamamoto said to Kasai: "I still feel that I can't do it. The police are not easy to eat. When a murder case occurs, those with previous convictions are the first to be suspected." Kasai seemed ready to retort, "No, it doesn't matter even if the police find you." "Why?" Yamamoto asked subconsciously. "Don't forget, you accepted the commission of someone you didn't know at all, and killed someone you didn't know at all. To put it bluntly, you seem like a ghost..." "But the police don't suspect me just because I look like a ghost."

"Okay, even if you are called in by the police for interrogation, I want to ask you, what did you say to the police?" "what?" "Would you like to tell me what kind of relationship you had with the victim? You don't even know his name, and you can't tell. Would you like to tell me where you got the murder weapon? You can't tell, because the murder weapon Gloves and clothes and stuff like that I bought from somewhere you don't even know." Yamamoto was at a loss for words. "Also... of course there may not be torture to extract a confession right now, even if there is, you are tortured but confessed, saying that you were commissioned by others to kill, but you can't say my name at all. Think about it, what will the police think of you? Without waiting for Yamamoto's answer, Kasai continued: "Delusion! The police can only think that you are delusional. You accepted the commission of a person you didn't know at all, and killed a person you didn't know at all, and you didn't know what the weapon you used was. Where did you buy it? The police can’t sue you at the procuratorate. Your confession can’t be trusted, and the court can’t hear the case. In a word, if you confessed, there is no way to convict you. This is what I say The so-called 'crime without trace'."

Yamamoto was still speechless.After he was interrogated by the police after the murder, he had to admit that Kasai's words were reasonable.No matter what the police say, as long as the prosecutors do not agree to indict, there will be no trial.Whether the prosecutor is wise or bureaucratic, no one can pass him.From this point of view, Kasai is still very clear about the procedures of the judiciary. Yamamoto also understood the intention of commissioning the murder with an anonymous phone call.Kasai and Yamamoto don't know each other—this is the lifeline of the so-called "crime without leaving traces".The commissioner and the executor did not meet in person, but only communicated by phone. In the end, the situation described by Kasai was formed. The police could not sue the procuratorate at all. Kasai called it "crime without leaving traces."

Kasai wants to make a plan that is impossible for ordinary people to realize into reality.But what kind of man would he be who would kill for a man he had never met?Kasai thinks that the predicament Yamamoto encountered is exactly the same, and he must have the same feeling and sympathy for Kasai's situation, so Kasai screens out Yamamoto from many people with previous murder convictions, and is sure that Yamamoto will accept his commission. Calculations can be called ruthless; self-confidence can be said to be well-thought-out. Yamamoto couldn't help but guess what kind of person Kasai was.

When Kasai called for the first time, he said that he was a director of a certain company.Is he telling the truth?His familiarity with the judiciary is beyond doubt.He can even see materials kept in the procuratorate that are absolutely confidential to the outside world. Although there are relatives who are policemen, not every policeman can see the materials kept in the procuratorate. Could it be that he is a police officer?Calling the police department a company, of course he himself is the director of the company.A senior police officer fell into a beauty trap, and the video tape of having sex with a woman fell into the hands of others?No, it doesn't have to be the police, maybe the prosecutor's office or the court.Those who can see the confidential materials must be people in the judicial circle.In order to keep himself, he did not hesitate to use all despicable means...

Yamamoto stopped thinking about it, and was determined not to kill for him.Yamamoto had made up his mind a long time ago, and the answer was straightforward - resolutely not to kill for him.Yamamoto said very calmly: "I think you have a good plan, but if no one is going to implement it, no matter how good the plan is, it's useless." "Mr. Yamamoto, I haven't said anything yet..." Kasai stopped suddenly as if covering the microphone with his hand.After a while, Kasai said in a panic, "I'm sorry, I'll call you again in a few days." Kasai hung up on the fourth call. Yamamoto couldn't help thinking about what happened on the phone.Being blackmailed, the head of the family is in crisis, and the family disintegration has shown signs, especially for a director of a company, it can be said that he is facing a catastrophe.But, so what?There are no fools in this world who kill to help others get in trouble. Before I knew it, the sky was already dawning. 400,000... It might be imprudent to ask for this amount of money, but Yamamoto didn't stop thinking about that 400,000 until he fell asleep.
