When the time agreed with Fujimoto arrived, Nanyuan received another call from Fujimoto. "Finally found a way to process it." "Oh? Can you tell me something?" "I can't understand it on the phone, so please come here." So Fujimoto rushed to Nanyuan's dormitory excitedly. "Look at this one first." Nanyuan showed a photo to Fujimoto. The 6-inch photo shows a car belching black smoke. "This is the negative." Nanyuan pointed to a black and white negative next to this photo and said. Fujimoto put the negative in front of his eyes, looked at it carefully, and let out an "oh":

"Is there no smoke on the film?" "I don't think there is smoke in the photos taken by Hashimoto. He asked Suzuki Naoji to drive a van that failed the vehicle inspection through the square in front of K Station at 1 am on January 30. The police saw this The car will definitely be intercepted and handled. Therefore, such a "fact" has been created. At the same time, Hashimoto killed Mr. Taguchi on the beach of the Tama River. The younger brother of a friend of Mr. Taguchi died on September 27 last year. In the murder case, he was framed as the murderer and was about to be sentenced, so this friend of Taguchi-san asked him for help. So I think Hashimoto’s ability to call Taguchi-san out is this excuse.”

"Yes. While they were talking, Hashimoto stabbed Mr. Taguchi to death with a dagger while he was not looking." "Then Hashimoto took Hayashi Kanako to Izu's K Station on another day, and took this photo at around 12:58 at night. Then let Suzuki Naoharu drive the van at the same time from the station square Passing by, the difference from July 30th is that the car did not emit black smoke this time. It is the same as the one I am taking now. The same van passes the same place twice without people noticing abnormalities , because the second time is just a walk.” "Then tell me how he forged it!"

Fujimoto urged Nanyuan. "Yes. If it is synthetic, maybe the method is to draw the 'black smoke' look on the printing paper, maybe it is to draw directly on the negative. But I tried these two methods and it didn't work. It seems that Hashimoto used it. Not in this way. Then I finally thought of a way to do it, please come to my darkroom." Nanyuan took detective Fujimoto into his dark room. "His tool is a flashlight." Nanyuan said to Fujimoto in the dark, "He wrapped the flashlight with black paper to prevent the light from being exposed, and then made a needle-sized hole in the black paper. Then when the switch was turned on, there would be a flashlight." The light came out."

"What's the use of this?" "Instead of a pen. It can also be called a 'light pen'." Nanyuan smiled and took out a piece of printing paper. "Start exposing this photo paper to the developer as usual." As Nanyuan spoke, he put the exposed photo paper into the developer solution. "Usually we would have waited for it to fully develop, but now we have to wait for it to have a slight shadow before taking it out and putting it in the water." "Won't the development stop like this?" "It is to make it stop the development. After the development stops, the image is blurred, but the outline of the car is clear. Take a look. At this time, I will use the 'light pen' to sweep the rear of the car, and then put it on In this way, because the rear of the car is swept by the light, there will be a blackened image, which looks like black smoke, right? The flashlight is too dark if it is close to the printing paper, and it is too dark if it is far away. It will be lighter and can be used freely. Hashimoto must have used this method to create an 'alibi' for himself!"

Detective Fujimoto, who had been holding his hands tightly all the time, breathed a sigh of relief and said angrily: "That way I can arrest him as the one who killed Taguchi!" "Please don't forget the murder of a girl in Mukoshima on September 27 last year. That innocent man may be sentenced to death!" Nanyuan reminded. Detective Fujimoto came to Namwon later the next day: "Hashimoto has dropped them all. As you said, the incident started last year. Hashimoto planned to dump Kojo Yasuko for the simple reason that he has a new love, that is Naiko Hayashi. At first, Hashimoto thought that Mukoshima Apartment would be given to him. She would easily agree to break up with Yasuko Xiaocheng, but she asked for 'youth loss fee' and threatened to report Hashimoto's tax evasion if Hashimoto didn't agree to her. So Hashimoto had to kill her thing, and then he and Naiko Hayashi made an 'alibi' together."

"Hashimoto didn't realize that I took a picture of him?" "He said that he was just running away and didn't pay attention at all. Because the young employee named Haruhiko Sanne was highly suspected by the police, and he had a lot of evidence, so Hashimoto didn't have any evidence at the time. On the other hand, you who don't know anything Participated in the Grand Prix of the photo call." "Is it because Jin Zilong saw Hashimoto in my work and told him, and then Hashimoto secretly replaced my photo?" "Yes. At that time, the trial of Yasuko Koshiro's murder was going to be held. To be on the safe side, he sent you to the South Pacific."

"Why did Taguchi notice Hashimoto? If he didn't notice Hashimoto, he wouldn't have died, right?" "As you know, the friend in Hokkaido asked him to save the man's younger brother Haruhiko Sanne. If Haruhiko Sanne was not the murderer who killed Yasuko Koshiro, then it must be Hashimoto. So Taguchi thought that if Hashimoto was the murderer, he must have died in 9 He passed the Shirasu Bridge at 4 pm on September 7th, so he thought of the fact that your work was stolen. Because he remembered that the work was taken at 4 pm on September 27th at the Shirasu Bridge. So Hashimoto We must kill him in order to relieve our worries."

"Is that fake photo the way I think it is?" "Ah. I talked about the flashlight, and Hashimoto laughed 'hehe', saying that you even understood this, and he also admitted that he asked Suzuki Naoji to drive to help him forge the facts." "Then Kanako Hayashi assisted Hashimoto knowing everything." "Ah, yes. Such a young and pretty girl, it's dreadful!" Detective Fujimoto shrugged and went back, but he walked back and added: "That Hashimoto said you are really weird." "why?" "I don't want to give you a 'silent fee' of 1 million yen, but I'm asking endless questions about this incident!"
