Chapter 16 Section VI

As the newspaper delivery boy said, Takashi Inami is a typical pauper.The Green Bank Building itself has nothing to do with the name "building" at all. But when I opened the door, I smelled a high-end coffee aroma that made my nose dilate.From the looks of it, we seem to have interrupted Takashi's coffee time. Suddenly, unexpectedly, he confessed easily. "Sorry, I did that play for my brother." He bowed his head slightly and said lightly.I, who was burning with vengeance all over my body, was immediately discouraged. "I disguised myself as a dead body, and I carried a golf ball under my arm just in case I didn't wear a shirt when the pulse was measured."

Just by doing this, you can temporarily stop the pulse.Very simple ruse. "This is all my own plan. My brother fled overseas as early as a week ago." Huh?Are you wrong?Isn't that so?What I saw was indeed Hiroshi Inami himself.Didn't you knock me out and help him escape? "That's why when you heard my identity yesterday, you thought the trick had been seen through and ran away?" Miss Fujimi said softly.From the very beginning she was sympathetic. "What an elaborate prank." The big criminal policeman said angrily. If there is no phone number from Xiao Jiadai, as long as Bing Boyang's body is not found, the police may not conduct the blood test of the remnants.This is not to blame the police.The police are very busy. Generally speaking, crimes caused by internal strife in underworld groups are different from crimes that attack ordinary citizens. Even if they are solved, they will not receive much credit. ——If it is a major event that is enough to defeat the underworld group in one fell swoop, then it is another matter.

"I'm really sorry. It's just that I have been taken care of by my brother. Seeing him in trouble, I really want to do something for him." "You mean, you've been receiving financial aid from him? I hear you're studying drama, right?" Hearing what Kayo-chan said, Inami's eyes widened unexpectedly. "Yes, I'm writing a script, and I'm forming a troupe with my partners, but I'm losing money...I rely on my brother to get to where I am today." "The drug dealers are very rich." The criminal police said nonchalantly. "However, if Mr. Yang fled abroad long ago, isn't there no need to pretend to be killed now?"

The director asked questions with his inherent calm tone.He probably felt that he couldn't use a threatening tone to deal with such an honest object. But... I glanced up at Takashi.You, why are you telling such a lie?I know very well that the person in the palm forest is Hiroshi Inami himself. There is no way to ask questions, I am really anxious! "After my brother fled, people in the organization kept coming to me and forcing me to tell his whereabouts. I was very scared and couldn't bear it anymore. I thought that if my brother was killed, they would give up, and my brother would not have to continue to flee. .When things calm down, he can come back and live away from Tokyo."

"Did you knock out my dog?" Little Kayo asked. "I'm sorry, it was me. In order for the play to continue, I had to escape no matter what. I was desperate..." "Empty hands?" "Yes. So it wasn't badly hurt?" Then he ran up the slope, got into the car that had been prepared and fled, changed his clothes, hid the leftovers, and called the police to inform him.What he said made sense. Everything was right except that he did it all by himself.Only this thing is deceptive. Can't stand it, lie.Although I don't know why he would lie, but a lie is a lie.I would like to express my protest at this point and get up and leave everyone.

I walked out of the cramped room—everyone gathered in what looked like a living-dining room; beyond that there was just a cramped kitchenette, bathroom, toilet, and bedroom.I pushed open the half-closed door with my nose, and saw that the bed was full of clothes that had been taken off and left behind. Although I don't have a specific purpose, but I am full of distrust, intending to intrude on Takashi's private life and sniff around. Shaking and shaking, I suddenly smelled a pungent smell, and suddenly, a sneeze broke out immediately. Because of embarrassment and sadness, I desperately endured it.But the sneezing just keeps on going.

"Ah Zheng, what's the matter? What are you doing?" Little Kayo came over, she hugged my head and looked at me. "You idiot, what do you smell?" She dragged me out of the bedroom, and I finally stopped sneezing.But this time it was replaced by Xiao Jiadai and disappeared. Kayo-chan looked at the poster pasted on the inside of the bedroom door.It's not clear from where I am, but it looks like a poster for Takashi's troupe recruiting members. After watching intently for a while, Kayo took me back to the place where everyone gathered. "Anyway, I have to invite you to the police station." The big criminal policeman said.He lowered his head obediently.

"I understand. But, that..." "What's wrong?" asked the director. "Before everyone came here, I was about to make coffee. It's not instant coffee, but real coffee. That... I'm sorry for scaring Fujimi-san and Hasumi-san, but I want to buy everyone a cup to express my apologies." Coffee, is it okay? I have worked in a coffee shop for a long time, and I am very confident in my coffee brewing skills.” The criminal policeman had a stern face, while the director had a mediator's expression of "it doesn't matter". "Well, all right. I'll let you treat me."

And so, enjoy coffee together.Although I recovered from the sneeze, my nose was still itchy, so I had to leave temporarily in order not to disturb everyone.Even so, I still smelled the mellow aroma of coffee mixed with the smell of black tea. "Mr. Inami." Little Kayo asked while holding the cup.Before that, she sipped her coffee in silence with a puzzled expression on her face. "There's a poster behind your door, right? I'm sorry, I read it without permission. Is that a photo taken in the palm forest with the theater troupe?" "Yes." Xiao Xiao answered brightly for a moment. "When the palm forest was first completed, everyone went to get their handprints together. Everyone signed under their own handprints, as if they felt like they had become a big star all of a sudden."

"What are you talking about?" the detective asked unhappily. "It's the scene of the crime. The reason why it's called Palm Forest is because when the water park was completed, there was an event where everyone put their handprints on the concrete wall as a souvenir. The district office also distributed pamphlets to publicize it. "Xiao Jiadai explained. That's how those large numbers of handprints came about.Like me, the detective, who heard about it for the first time, let out a disinterested "Oh". Takashi Inami was taken away by the criminal police, and Ms. Fujimi said goodbye and left. When we were left alone, Kayo-chan murmured in a low voice:

"Dad, can you accompany me?" "Of course. What's the matter?" "Here's a groundbreaking idea, but I think it's worth checking." The director thought for a while and said, "Coffee and black tea?" Kayo nodded vigorously. "Dad found out too?" "Yeah." The director tugged on his vest. "I've inquired about Takashi Inami's current workplace. It's a local discount store. In order, let's start from there." what? What?So and so, I followed.
