Murder Train to Paris 西村京太郎 2239Words 2018-03-16
"Everything went according to Okoshi's plan. At the subway station, Okoshi was attacked, and the murderer, Yayoi Shimazaki, was blown up in Maruku's apartment. At this point, the scene is over." Totsukawa said. "Is it not?" Secretary Miura asked. "There are still problems. I think Yayoi Shimazaki took money from Ogoshi to stage such a pre-planned scene. She has no reason to commit suicide." Totsukawa said calmly. "So, you mean to say that it wasn't Shimazaki who died?" asked Pierre. "Yes, I don't think it was her who died."

"However, a passport was found at the scene." "I'm afraid it was intentional to stay." "Then, who will die?" asked Pierre. Totsukawa smiled and said: "Doesn't Monsieur Pierre already know?" "Yeah. She used the name Tachibana Yuko in Paris. That means it was the real Tachibana Yuko who got killed in the apartment." Pierre said. "Actually, I reasoned in the same way. After entering Paris, Yayoi Shimazaki met Yuko Tachibana, who came here to conduct fashion design research, and faked her name. After the attack on the subway station, she tried to create that she had The illusion of suicide. So, she let Maruku, a Middle Easterner, stay outside for two or three hours. Then, Yayoi Shimazaki called Yuko Tachibana. She knocked Yuko Tachibana unconscious when she was unsuspecting, and then took her away The passport, ignited on the fuse of the high explosive, and left the apartment quickly. The explosion happened, and the unrecognizable body of Yuko Tachibana was found, and the passport of Yayoi Shimazaki was also found. Because it just happened in the subway In the case of the attempted shooting at the station, it is natural to think that Shimazaki committed suicide in great disappointment."

Totsukawa said. "So, the real Yayoi Shimazaki, with Yuko Tachibana's passport on her body, quietly escaped. Right?" asked Pierre. "I want to carry the huge sum of money that Dai Viet gave me with me." Totsukawa added. Pierre and Bart turned to Dai Viet together. Da Yue waved his hand and said: "What a joke! It's nonsense. I have friends of many famous people in France, and the same is true in Japan. These friends of mine also have many policemen. You wantonly slander me as a murderer without any basis. Isn't that true? Ruin my reputation!"

"Although there is not enough evidence yet, I believe it is true." Totsukawa said. "I, I have to tell the Chief of Police to fire you." Dai Viet threatened. Totsukawa glanced at Kamei, and Kamei immediately walked up to Totsukawa and handed him a note. "The Nishimoto detective has already checked it out." After speaking, Kamei returned to his seat. "Da Viet!" Totsukawa looked directly at Dayoshi and let out a drink. In an instant, Dai Yue became like a deflated ball. "What's the matter?" "My subordinates conducted various investigations in Tokyo. Let me introduce you. Matsuno Yuki, who was murdered in October last year, became Ogoshi's secretary two years ago. After that year, she took a break. It took half a month. The result of the investigation of this matter is that she had an artificial abortion in a hospital in Yokohama during this period. It is said that she had an unusually intimate relationship with President Ogoshi at that time.”

"nonsense!" Da Yue shouted hoarsely. Without reason, Totsukawa continued: "At the same time, Matsuno Yuki deposited 1 million yuan in his bank account, and has deposited 500,000 yuan on time every month since then. The name of the depositor is Miura Hiroshi, which is the name of Miura's secretary. I think, of course, Miura is Entrusted by Mr. Dayue, it is not uncommon to deposit money into her account on a monthly basis, the general manager or chairman of the company, and such flamboyant affairs with female staff. The key problem is that Dayue's problem is a bit special. First of all, Mrs. Dai Viet was born in a famous French family. This affair is likely to become an international scandal and shame her family. Secondly, Dai Viet strongly supports cultural and artistic undertakings, and is the president of the Japan-French Friendship Association. Leave the impression of a high-status philanthropist. If such a scandal breaks out, his image will definitely plummet. As Daigoshi himself, of course he will try his best to prevent such things from happening. However, Matsuno Yuki's appetite is getting bigger and bigger .About last July, she said to her good friend, 'I want to marry Mr. Ogoshi. He and that Frenchman won't live forever.' She said it to this extent, it's too dangerous. Therefore, Ogoshi has no choice but to try to seal Matsuno Yuki's mouth."

"This is just your imagination. Do you have evidence? If not, I will sue you for framing when I return home!" Da Yue bluffed and said. There was a stalemate between Totsukawa and Daigoshi, and the air seemed to freeze. Secretary Miura fidgeted. It was Inspector Pierre who broke the dull atmosphere. "Oh, sorry." Pierre said while walking towards the door.There was a young policeman poking his head out there. For some reason, everyone paid attention to Pierre's movements. Pierre listened to what the young policeman had to say, and walked slowly back to his seat.

"Everyone, I have a piece of news for everyone. I heard that a woman holding the passport of Tachibana Yuko was arrested at Charles de Gaulle Airport just now. If she is Yayoi Shimazaki, this case will be solved. Now, she is being interrogated at the airport, and will soon The truth will come out." Pierre said. Hearing this, Da Yue suddenly stood up. "It seems that it will take some time. I'm going back to the hotel." "I'll go back too." Miura said. Pierre watched them both closely. "Please wait here until the result is obtained." "I don't think you have that power."

Da Yue said and was about to leave the room. Suddenly, a big man stood upright like a wall in front of him. It was Officer Bart, who was nearly two feet tall. Da Yue's face turned ashen. "What do you want to do?" he shouted in English. Bart pressed Dai Viet's shoulder: "I protected you with all my might. You're fine. Seeing the situation is not good, do you want to slip?" "I didn't mean to slip." "Then please sit down, Mr. Dai Yue." Bart said. Under his threat, Ogoshi and Miura returned to their seats. After waiting for about 30 minutes, the young policeman from the Paris Police Station poked his head in from the door again.

After listening to his report with a satisfied expression, Pierre turned to everyone and said: "Now, the result that everyone has been waiting for for a long time has come out. That woman seems to have confessed thoroughly. She is indeed Yayoi Shimazaki. I learned from her that it was Ugaki who killed Detective Shirai of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department in October last year. On the 18th At night, Ugaki left the hotel in order to receive a reward from Secretary Miura. Detective Shirai followed him and was caught by him and killed. His body was thrown into the Seine River."

"What the hell is going on." As he spoke, Totsukawa glanced at the dejected Christina. Pierre turned to Miura: "This time, you can't get rid of it, can you?" "This is an order from my boss, and I have to obey." Miura hissed helplessly. "Mr. Da Yue, I have to arrest you." Pierre said with a heavy tone.Then he immediately added: "Here, it is extremely regrettable that the president of the Japan-French Friendship Association must be arrested."
