Chapter 59 23. Half of the shawl

"I see! Then... Mitsuki..." Waiting for power, the police officer leaned out from behind the table and said: "Itsuki Kuwano, who was killed at the Yamato Hotel in Akasaka Sanno, and Harumi Uikawa, who was killed at the Tamagawa Studio of Asahi Film Company, and Kyoko Yukikoji, who is currently performing at the Marunouchi Toyo Theater, were formerly members of the Tokiwa Music School. students of the same class." "Yes, officer. In Showa 27, after the three of them graduated from Tokiwa Music School at the same time, Kuwano May went abroad to study immediately in the same year. Yichuan Harumi was recruited into the film industry because of her beauty and voice, and Yukikoji Kyoko Then he devoted himself to musical stage plays and established his current status as the queen of musicals.”

This is the fifth investigation room of the first search section of the police department, and it is also the room where the police officers of the waiting force work. The people who are talking to him face to face here are Mitsuki Shunsuke and Miko Shibashin. The two of them had just come out of the Oriental Theater, so they stopped by the police station on the way. "So that's it. Why were the three of them targeted by the Avengers?" "Kyoko Yukikoji finally told us everything just now." Shunsuke Mitsuki lit a cigarette and said: "Among their students in the same class, there is a girl named Zhongdai Second and Third Generation. Her grades are outstanding, her voice is also very distinctive, the sound quality is good, and her skills are even more excellent, so she is deeply loved by the teachers. She is the first in the same grade. The most promising person in the future."

"Well, what then?" "But on the eve of graduation, the second and third generations of Zhongdai suddenly became hoarse. The doctor thought that someone might have made her drink mercury." "It's a common thing in the show business where people drink mercury and they lose their voice." "But the worst thing is that the doctor announced that her throat would never get better. This was a great blow to the person involved. Not long after, the second and third generations of Zhong Dai committed suicide. She wrote a forced suicide note in her suicide note. The murderer who drank the mercury was the three people mentioned just now."

"Ah! That's how it is." "Regarding this incident, Kyoko Xuekoulu explained that she was framed. She said she had never done that kind of thing, but judging by her frightened look, I think she was involved to a considerable extent." "So, the Avenger is..." "He is the elder brother of the second and third generations of Nakadai—Fujio Nakadai. The year that the second and third generations of Nakadai committed suicide was Showa 27. At that time, he was still stranded in Siberia and was sent back to the mainland last year. He just called Xue Kyoko Xiaolu said it was her turn this time."

"what?" Waiting for power, the police officer stood up from his chair in surprise. "He's here to announce that he's going to kill someone!" "Well, Yukikoji Kyoko felt very scared, so she told all the secrets she had kept in the past." Now, Inspector Waitili, walking anxiously up and down the room, said: "Shunsuke Mitsuki, what does that man named Nakayo Fujio have to do with Phantom Monster?" "Probably when Phantom Monster wanted to steal Kuwano Mayzuki's 'Mediterranean Star', he met Nakayo Fujio who wanted Kuwano Mayzuki's life. The desire for revenge, and the fact that he also obtains the gems, will be in trouble. But I don’t understand, it seems that the Phantom Monster hasn’t obtained the ‘Mediterranean Star’ yet.”

"Ah! Shunsuke Mitsuki, regarding this matter, I recently discovered a very strange thing." After finishing speaking, Officer Waiting Li took out the other half of the lace shawl that Sang Ye Wuyue was holding tightly to when he was dying from the drawer. As I said before, Sangye Wuyue was wearing a slender lace shawl when she died, but for some reason, half of that shawl was torn from the middle, and the other half was missing. At that time, everyone thought that the murderer might have used that half Shawls to wipe bloody hands or weapons. "Shunsuke Mitsuki, detective boy, look carefully... There are pendants on this shawl, and there are knots like rosary beads on each of the shawls, but inside this knot..."

Waiting for the police officer to untie a knot, it turned out to be a small Western fortune statue made of ivory. When Mitsuki Shunsuke and Miko Chaijin saw this, they couldn't help but clenched their hands and said: "The 'Star of the Mediterranean' may be hidden in one of the knots of the other half of the shawls taken by the murderer..." "That's right! That's why Sangye Wuyue wears that shawl all the time." "And . . . officer, the murderer who took the other half of the shawl may not have noticed the jewels in it." Mitsuki Shunsuke and Miko Shibasumi cried together excitedly.

So where exactly is the other half of the shawl now?
