Chapter 7 Chapter 6 Double Secret Chamber

"From now on, Meihe will be able to obtain happiness!" Manager Dazhu finally felt relieved and heaved a long sigh of relief.At the same time, he also felt exhausted all over his body, and he wanted to go to bed immediately and have a good sleep.Sitting on the big sofa in the hotel room, I felt limp as if drunk. In the six months since the AJA4301 plane crashed in the shallow water area of ​​Haneda in Tokyo Bay, it has been a period of misery and deprivation for Otake.As the leader of All Nippon Airways, he faced severe public opinion and long-term search and salvage work.Not only that, but also participate in the compensation negotiations with the families of the victims.

About two months ago, the wreckage of the crashed plane was basically salvaged.The accident cause investigation team organized by the government officially started work.Since the accident unit is All Nippon Airways, all questions from the investigation team must be answered.Specialist Yoshiaki Otake appeared in the meeting room of the investigation team many times to answer various questions from the investigation team.In addition, there are a lot of official duties in the company, so busy that he can't get out.What makes him helpless is that the family is also busy.His daughter was getting married, and he had no time to take care of it.I set my daughter's wedding day today because I hope to have a good time while I am still in the executive position of All Nippon Airways.

The 4301 plane crash was the largest air disaster in the history of world aviation.As one of the heads of All Nippon Airways, there is no doubt that he cannot escape being held accountable.As far as the top positions of airline leaders are concerned, no one can guarantee that they will always belong to them. It's not out of the chair yet, maybe with the aftermath of the accident and the little things left over. The daughter of an executive at All Nippon Airways is worth far more than ordinary girls in society.If he has resigned from his current position, maybe he will cancel today's marriage.

Although the other party knew that Dazhu's future prospects were not good, he was still eager to hold the wedding.Apart from certain political factors, the man's attitude towards marrying Meihe is very persistent.What did she actually say, she would rather die if she could not marry Meihe in this lifetime. The marriage of a man and a woman is also a transaction in a sense, that is, the two parties must be of the same family. In this sense, as the daughter of ANA's Otake executive, marrying the son of the major shareholder of ANA and the vice president of a leading bank, it can barely be considered a good match.

The man's fly in the ointment is that he is short.But graduating from a first-class university is regarded as a target for training high-level cadres. It is said that in the near future, he will be able to sit on the top cadre of a top-notch bank.The groom has a bright future and is not inferior to the beautiful bride. "Oh! I never expected my daughter to be so beautiful, she looks like a fairy coming down to earth!" Manager Dazhu recalled the demeanor of his daughter at today's wedding ceremony, and muttered to himself alone. He and his wife had no children, so they adopted Meihe.Soon, his wife suffered from an incurable disease in the womb and died.

After that, Dazhu became a father and a mother at the same time, and finally brought Meihe up.From Meihe's childhood to today's bride, the scenes of the past are unfolding before the eyes of Mr. Otake. The sad and crying Meihe, the smiling Meihe, the childish Meihe, the taciturn Meihe... During the process of her growing up, her various expressions are unforgettable for Mr. Otake. The beautiful Meihe is cultivated by myself.Starting tonight, she will be attached to another man.For Meihe's future happiness, it is only right and proper for female college students to marry.Even so, in the eyes of Mr. Dazhu, it seemed as if a piece of bloody flesh had been gouged out of him.

Although his daughter will marry one day and leave him, Executive Dazhu, like all fathers in the world, seems to be robbing the boutiques he made himself.What remains from now on is loneliness and loneliness. Meihe is gone, she leaves her father's protective umbrella and falls into the arms of a more concrete man.There, there is no longer any room for the aging father to intervene. Meihe, tonight she will fly to Hawaii with the groom for their honeymoon.Once the wedding ceremony and banquet in the Airport Hotel are over, they will embark on the road of wedding travel. Otake's manager glanced at his watch, the departure time was approaching.

At the end of the banquet, there was still some time before the newlyweds set off.The manager Dazhu came to the long bag room of the hotel and took a rest for a while. The fatigue and tension of work in the past few days made him almost unable to stand up when the banquet was announced to be over. "The bride and groom are leaving soon!" The plane to Hawaii via Kagoshima is about to take off.After hearing the broadcast, Mr. Otake slowly stood up from the sofa. The boarding time for ANA Flight 74 bound for Honolulu, Hawaii has arrived.The announcer used Japanese and English and repeatedly broadcast on the radio: Please board the plane passengers and go to customs, immigration control stations, security checkpoints and health checkpoints immediately for inspection.

Some passengers in the hall began to stand up from their seats and walked towards the customs entrance covered with red carpets. "I wish you all the best of luck!" "I wish the bride and groom respect and love each other, and grow old forever!" Everyone surrounded the bride and groom near the customs entrance, scrambling to bless them.On the face of the groom, there was a pleasant smile and a high spirit.From today, I have a beautiful wife by my side.The bride standing aside, perhaps because of her wedding attire, was a little nervous and pale. "Why! Where is the father of the bride? Where has he gone?"

I don't know who reminded me. "Oh, how strange!" "Must still be in the hotel lounge! He looks tired!" "Call him quickly!" A young man who looked like a staff member of ANA quickly ran towards the phone booth. The bride and groom are about to board the plane, but there is no sign of Mr. Dazhu.While pressing the phone number, the young employee looked at his watch. The hour hand was about to point to nine.He remembered that after the banquet, Mr. Dazhu said that he was a little tired and planned to take a rest in the hotel room.The room number, the young man remembered clearly, was on the third floor.Due to tight boarding time, the best way is to call.

The phone went through.On the other end of the phone, came the voice of Dazhu's executive. "Oh, is it Yoshii-kun? I was about to make a phone call! I wanted to see them off, but I was so exhausted that I couldn't cheer up and couldn't even take a step. I'm so sorry! I didn't go to see them off in person. It would be too rude. Please send them off on my behalf, and wish them a safe journey and a safe return!" The voice of Dazhu's executive was listless and weak.This is in sharp contrast to his usual impression. In Yoshii-kun's impression, Otake is an energetic and arrogant person. Hearing this tone, he felt sad. The body of the executive was indeed worn down by work. Since the 4301 plane crash, Otake's special agent often stays up late to work.Perhaps the accumulation of long-term fatigue, coupled with the daughter's preparations for marriage, the body finally couldn't support it. Maybe he used fatigue as an excuse to hide from other people's sight, and deeply buried his reluctant sadness after parting from his daughter in his heart. "I never thought that the manager would be so affectionate!" Yoshii-kun ran towards the seeing-off crowd while imagining Mr. Otake's lonely expression at the moment.When she heard that her father could not come to see her off, the bride showed a slightly surprised look on her face, and then she showed a lonely expression in an instant. She left the crowd arm in arm with the groom and walked towards the boarding gate.Among the seeing-off crowd, two young men chased after them and ran towards the last entrance. It was past ten o'clock in the evening when Yoshii-kun saw off the bride and groom.To report the situation, Yoshii-kun went straight to Room 314 on the third floor of the hotel. If it is just to report the situation of seeing off, it will undoubtedly add to the confusion, and it will arouse the father's sadness of losing his daughter even more. But Yoshii-kun is in order to report and ask for instructions, so he must meet with Otake's executive tonight. But no matter how hard Yoshii-kun knocked on the door, there was no answer in the room.Manager Dazhu was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to send his daughter off, so he might have fallen asleep now. If you continue to knock on the door, you will wake up your boss and have to get up and open the door for yourself.He is so tired!But there are some important tasks that must be consulted with the superior, otherwise they cannot proceed. There was no response to knocking on the door, so Yoshii-kun had to go to the service desk and ask the waitress to call room 314, but the phone only rang, but no one answered the phone. Yoshii-kun said he was in a hurry, and repeatedly asked the waitress to open the door with a key.Usually, the hotel staff are not allowed to open the door unless requested by the host.Yoshii-kun showed his ID card with a very serious expression.The waitress reluctantly took out the spare key, and walked towards the room with Yoshii-kun. Before going to Dazhu's executive room, the waitress hung up the intercom to the main service desk in the lobby.After verification, the key was not received from the passenger, which proves that the passenger is resting in the room. "Maybe asleep?" The waitress tilted her head and stood at the door of room 314, looking at it for a while.Before inserting the key into the lock, he knocked on the door again, but there was still no response.She inserted the key into the lock and turned it around, and the lock opened.But the door can only be pushed in about ten centimeters, because the safety hasp is hung on the inside of the door. As long as all the doors of the Airport Hotel are closed, the safety bolts of the locks will be automatically hung.This kind of automatic safety lock cannot open the door when standing on the outside, but the safety will automatically open when standing on the inside and turning the lock handle.And many accommodation passengers feel uneasy, worrying whether the safety lock has really been hung up. To this end, safety hasps are installed on the inside of doors in all rooms.This kind of safety hasp must stand on the inside of the door to hang it. The safety hasp on the inside of the door of Room 314 was also attached.Therefore, the maximum gap between the doors is only ten centimeters.Even if you turn sideways, you can't enter the room. Although your wrist can reach into the crack of the door, you can't open the safety buckle. From the gap in the door, you can peek into the room, but the view is limited.If there is no such safety buckle, there is no sense of prevention. The lights in the room were on, maybe Otake was too tired and fell asleep before turning off the lights?Due to the angle, it is not possible to get a glimpse of what is going on on the bed in the bedroom. "Professional! Otake Specialist!" Yoshii-kun shouted into the room through the crack of the door, but there was no response.Yoshii-kun raised his voice, unexpectedly alarming the passengers in the next room.They opened the door one after another and poked their heads out to ask what happened. However, there was still no reply. "Strange!" Yoshii-kun thought, no matter how deeply he slept, he should have heard such a loud cry, right?The passengers in the next room were also woken up by me, and Otake's manager should be able to hear it. "How can this safety buckle be opened?" Yoshii-kun suddenly became uneasy.Will the executive get a sudden illness and be in a bad state where he can't move freely and can't speak. He hurriedly asked the waitress. The waitress and the salesman shook their heads repeatedly.The safety hasp is not a lock and has no key. "No. This kind of safety buckle can only be opened by people in the room." "I always feel that the situation is not good! This safety buckle, if it breaks, does it matter?" "This, I can't decide..." The waitress was confused.But the room was quiet, and she also panicked. "I won't trouble you. If it is damaged, I will compensate you. If you hesitate, maybe it will be more troublesome?!" Yoshii-kun didn't know what he meant by what he said.He desperately pressed his body on the door hard. He also thought that the door structure of the hotel room was similar to that of the Xincun room he lived in.Said to be a safety buckle for prevention, it is only to achieve the psychological effect of making passengers feel safe, and it will never be a very firm thing. He slammed his body against the door with all his strength.With a "bang", the screw broke and the safety buckle fell off. The room that was still mysterious just now appeared in front of their eyes in an instant.Manager Dazhu didn't lie on the bed, but leaned on the sofa beside the bed. "Professional!" Yoshii-kun just wanted to say, why are you sleeping on the sofa?The words came to his lips and swallowed sharply. Specialist Dazhu had already taken off his suit jacket, and the left chest of his shirt was covered with bright red blood.The unexpected tragic scene flew into the eyes of the two of them in an instant.Due to the bright lights in the room, the white shirt and the bright red blood were particularly distinct. "Wow!" The waitress screamed and hugged Yoshii-kun tightly in fright.Yoshii-kun stared blankly, without speaking for a while. After all, it was a man, he didn't yell, and he didn't panic.The most urgent thing is to race against time and report the case to the police as soon as possible. After receiving the alarm call from the hotel, the chief of the local police station immediately led more than a dozen criminal investigation police officers, technical police officers and forensic police officers to the scene.After on-site investigation, it was judged as homicide.The director immediately reported to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Serious Criminal Investigation Section 1. The reason why the local police station determined that the homicide was well-founded.From the outside, Mr. Dazhu died on the sofa, but there was blood everywhere on the floor and walls inside.In some places, blood is still flowing.A wound on the chest, and a stabbed hole in the shirt. If you commit suicide, you can’t walk around indoors after being stabbed in the chest with a knife. If the pain causes you to walk around, it’s completely different from the posture of the deceased sitting firmly on the sofa.Besides, for suicides, no matter how sharp the blade is, it is impossible to stab directly into the chest from the outside of the shirt when committing suicide.Even though he was wearing a thin undershirt, he either rolled it up or took it off before committing suicide, exposing the skin and stabbing it directly with a blade.But although the deceased took off his coat, the blade pierced his chest from the outside of the shirt he was wearing.According to the psychology of the suicidal person, it is impossible to do so. Judging from the condition of the body, it was not long after death.According to careful observation and technical appraisal, it was confirmed that the case was homicide. The murderer was someone who visited Dazhu's manager.That is to say, the outside of the sharp dagger held backwards in the right hand of Otake's executive coincided with the wound.The direction of the knife edge is opposite to the stabbing entrance on the left chest. The piercing entrance is at the top of the left breast nipple.The dagger pierced from the top of the nipple to the inside of the chest, with a length of about 3.6 centimeters and a width of about 0.2 centimeters.The dagger pierces from the side, the end of the wound in the center of the body is the side of the dagger, and the chest on the side is the back of the dagger.According to the blood stains on the body and the consistency of the wound, it was proved that it was formed by the dagger held by the deceased.To form such a wound, one must penetrate as if holding the inside of a dagger. It is generally not possible, and absolutely unnecessary, for a suicidal person to readjust his dagger grip after suicide. Yoshii Hiroshi, who found Otake's body, and Oishi Tsuneko, a hotel waitress, first used a spare key to unlock the door, and then broke the safety hasp on the inside of the door to enter the scene. Door lock, automatic safety type.Once the murderer goes out, the door will automatically close and the safety latch will automatically lock.It is absolutely impossible for the murderer to hang the safety hasp from the outside of the door. Assuming homicide, how did the murderer escape from the room after he succeeded?The scene is like a closed chamber. The mystery cannot be solved, and the deceased cannot yet be called a victim.Sticking to this mystery, the investigation and evidence collection work can only be shelved.For the time being, we can only put aside the mystery and conduct a thorough search of the scene.The so-called secret room cannot happen in real life.It's just that one of the suspicious points was overlooked, giving people the feeling of a secret room for a moment.On this point, the criminal investigation police officers are very optimistic about the detection of the case. The scene is in Room 314 on the third floor of the Airport Hotel.The space of twenty-five to six square meters is called a dual-purpose suite, with a single bed and a large sofa.Most of the tourists in this hotel like to live in a room like this where they can sleep and rest on the big sofa. Push the door and go in, and the bathroom is on the right.There is a partition between the room and the bathroom.The room has a standard single bed at right angles to the sofa.Otake Yoshiaki died lying on this sofa. The blood from the wound on the left chest flowed all the way to the waist, and a considerable part of the blood had penetrated into the fibrous tissue of the sofa. From the outside of the wound, although it is not clear, the wound is very deep, and it seems to have penetrated the left lung.From the face of the deceased, there was no painful and dull expression.The deceased had already taken off his jacket, his tie, and his shirt.The shirt and trousers, however, showed little wrinkling and no sign of rebellion. On the coffee table, jackets and ties were piled up.There were utensils and electrical appliances in the room, and there was no sign of the deceased struggling with the murderer.Needless to say, after the murder, the messy scene can be restored.Technical police officers conducted a careful search of the interior and surrounding areas.However, nothing was found that could prove that the murderer had been to the scene.The technical police officers also looked for fingerprints and footprints on the knife, door handles, telephones, and places the murderer might have touched.Many fingerprints and footprints that can be found are repeated with the deceased, and cannot be reproduced for evidence collection at all. While collecting evidence at the scene, the police officers who handled the case launched an investigation on the relevant personnel.Especially Yoshii-kun, who first discovered the victim's body, and the waitress, Ms. Oishi, conducted detailed inquiries. The police officer handling the case learned from Mr. Gujing's testimony: around nine o'clock in the evening, Mr. Dazhu was still alive. "Is what you said true?" The police officer handling the case could not help but raise his voice.If the testimony is true and the moment of death presumed by the forensic police officer, the distance in inference time can be shortened. "How can I lie!" Yoshii-kun showed a sullen expression on his face. The criminal police officers were full of suspicion and eagerness to solve the case, and the questioning of the first discoverer was often like interrogating a criminal suspect.This made Yoshii-kun very upset. "Because the boarding time of the executive daughter and son-in-law is coming soon, I quickly hung up the phone of the executive who was resting in this room. At that time, it was two minutes to nine. He was indeed in the room, and he called me talk." "What did the commissioner say?" "He said that he was exhausted and exhausted, and asked me to see him off, and asked me to send them a message, wishing them a safe journey and a safe return." "At that time, didn't you feel anything strange?" "No. From his tone, I just feel that he is extremely tired. Recently, he often stayed up late to work. At the end of the banquet today, he told me that he was dizzy and wanted to go back to the hotel room to rest for a while." "My daughter is on a wedding trip, but the father excuses that he is tired and doesn't see him off. Don't you find it strange?" "I didn't think so. It's not uncommon for the father not to see him off on such occasions. I think he may be feeling bad if the manager doesn't see him off. He is still single because of his daughter. Now that his daughter is married, I can't guess. What kind of mental state is he in?" Yoshii-kun's words made the criminal investigation police officer in charge of the questioning feel that he was still very young and naive. It was another criminal investigation police officer who was in charge of questioning the waitress Changko Oishi.Her testimony is basically consistent with what Yoshii said.Yoshii-kun was the deceased's secretary, and the waitress had nothing to do with the deceased.All Nippon Airways is one of the main shareholders of Airport Hotel.Dazhu is an executive, and often eats, stays and rests here.The waitress Tsuneko Oishi has just started working in the hotel, and she hasn't met the manager Otake yet. As such, her testimony is reliable and trustworthy.But according to her testimony, there is no need to continue the search and investigation at the scene. According to the fact that the direction of the dagger held by the deceased does not match the wound and other indoor conditions, the murderer exists objectively.But at the scene, there was no clue of the murderer's escape.This, the standard Chamber of Secrets, is exactly like the first scene.In other words, a suicide scene. Facing the testimony of the two, especially the testimony of the waitress, the criminal police officers had to make the detection of the secret room their main target. The criminal police officers again conducted a detailed inspection of the door, window, ceiling and floor of Room 314.The window cannot be opened and closed, so it must be fixed.In the corner of the ceiling, there is only one ventilation hole for the air conditioner that even mice cannot pass through.The walls are completely soundproofed.There was not even a gap in the long carpeted floor for a bug to pass through. The airtight architectural design seems to boast to the passengers that our Airport Hotel absolutely protects the privacy of the passengers. In addition to the house key in the pocket of the deceased's coat, the criminal police officers also verified several other spare keys kept by the hotel.But in this case itself, since there is a safety hasp on the inside of the door, the storage of the spare key is not important.Even if the criminal uses the spare key to unlock the door, he can only push the door open as far as ten centimeters allowed by the safety hasp. Besides, except for this spare key in the hands of the waitress, the other spare keys are all in the correct state of custody. "Push the door open to a distance of ten centimeters from the outside, then stretch thin iron rods and wires to the back of the door, and hang the safety buckle. I don't know if this is possible." A criminal investigation police officer came up with such an idea.So, the experiment was quickly launched.It turned out that it was impossible to remove the safety hasp on the back of the door, no matter what utensil was used. According to this, the murderer escaped after putting on the safety buckle. "How is this possible?" Facing the murder in the locked room before them, the police officers couldn't find an entry point for a while. "Then... how did the murderer get into the room?" A criminal investigation police officer seemed to think of something and raised a question.Due to the existence of the safety buckle, everyone's attention is drawn to how the murderer entered and escaped.All spare keys were verified, and the possibility of the murderer using the keys to enter the room was first ruled out.Secondly, the walls, windows, ceiling, and floor in the room are completely enclosed, and there is no possibility of drilling. "The victim only stepped forward to open the door after hearing the murderer's knock on the door." Another criminal investigation police officer blurted out an answer. The criminal investigation police officer who asked the question just now seemed dissatisfied with this answer, but he couldn't find any strong evidence to refute it for a while, so he didn't say anything more. Yoshii-kun talked on the phone with Otake's executive in the airport hall after nine o'clock, has anyone entered or left room 314? The police officers focused on after nine o'clock, and started questioning the relevant personnel of the hotel and the passengers next door.But the passengers staying in the hotel have nothing to do with Dazhu's executive.Inquiring about the result was still a waste of time.The only thing of value is that the police obtained important testimony from Jiang Senjun, the security guard who was on duty that night. That night, Mr. Jiang Sen was accidentally assigned to be on duty at the service desk on the third floor.In the guest room building of the hotel, 24-hour service is implemented around the clock.The waitresses are divided into three shifts (morning shift, 5:00 to 13:00; middle shift, 13:00 to 21:00; night shift, 21:00 to 5:00).That day, the waitress on the middle shift suddenly asked for leave due to illness, and left the hotel at six o'clock to go home. During the period from six o'clock to nine o'clock, the security guard Jiang Senjun was temporarily assigned to the service desk on the third floor. In addition to being on duty, the floor attendants in the Airport Hotel are also responsible for cleaning and tidying up the rooms.Therefore, security guards often participate in the floor service desk on duty.When waitresses are on sick leave or personal leave, etc., security guards are often temporarily assigned to be on duty at the service desk on the floor.Security guard Jiang Senjun often participates in such shifts. After handing over the shift from the waitress who left work due to sick leave at 6:00 pm, Mr. Jiang Sen was on duty at the service desk on the third floor until Tsuneko Oishi took over at 9:00 pm. "During this time, I kept watching the corridor outside the guest room. No one came in or out of room 314 at all." Jiang Senjun said firmly. "Didn't you go to the bathroom during that time?" The mystery of the secret room is put aside for the time being, but during the interval when Mr. Jiang Sen went to the toilet, analyzing from the time, it is possible for the murderer to enter and exit the room.The inquiring criminal investigation police officer asked after thinking about it. "During the period from six o'clock to nine o'clock when I changed shifts with Ms. Dashi, I didn't go to the toilet, and I was always on the job." Jiang Senjun insisted, from the expression on his face, no flaws could be seen.According to this, the time when Dashi Changzi was at work was when the murderer entered and exited the room. Ms. Changzi saw Mr. Yoshii knocking on the door of room 314 at around 10:20, after handing over the shift with Mr. Jiang Sen at nine o'clock.Since there was no response from the room, Yoshii-kun asked her to use the spare key to open the door.During this period of time, apart from Yoshii-kun knocking on the door, there was no second person knocking on the door. "Did you leave the service desk when you handed over the shift with Mr. Jiang Sen?" "I took over from Jiang Sen at the information desk. We broke up after chatting for about ten minutes at the information desk. If someone passes in front of the information desk, they will definitely not escape our sight." The question that the police officer finally thought of was instantly refuted. "Apart from the elevator, how many stairs are there for the guest room on the third floor?" The officer continued to ask, maybe there are fire stairs unknown? "On one side of the service desk, there are elevators and stairs; on the other side of the corridor, there are fire stairs. Sitting at the service desk, the entire corridor has a panoramic view. It is impossible to avoid our eyes to enter and exit the room." Changzi answered very simply. After the questioning, the police officer went to the service desk on the third floor for field inspection and confirmed that Ms. Chang Zi's answer was correct.There is a corridor in the middle of the third floor, and guest rooms are on both sides of the corridor.There are five guest rooms on one side, and a total of ten rooms on both sides. The information desk on the third floor is at the end of the corridor, adjacent to the elevator.In front of the service desk, there is a platform to take the stairs to the third floor. There are stairs on the left and right sides of the platform.From the stairs to the guest room, or take the elevator to the guest room, you must go through the floor service desk. Information desk, facing the end of the corridor.At the end of the corridor, it is connected with the fire stairs. Sitting at the service desk, you can have a panoramic view of the corridor and the doors of the ten guest rooms on both sides.Trying to avoid the sight of waiters and security guards to enter the guest room is impossible.Even if the waiters don't look directly at the corridor, they have peripheral vision. As long as they don't turn their backs to the corridor, there is no way for them to escape their unique professional eyes. At this point in the investigation, the officers became more and more confused.That is to say, apart from room 314 itself being a fully enclosed closed room, its peripheral corridors are also fully enclosed closed rooms that are completely exposed to the sight of the floor attendants. Just think, even if the murderer plays some extraordinary trap, it is impossible not to pass through the corridor.If you want to pass through the corridor, you must enter the line of sight of the waiter or security guard.From the outside, Room 314 looks like a fully enclosed room.But judging from the wounds of the deceased, it was completely homicide.Facing the flawless scene, the search and investigation had to be shelved.It was already two o'clock in the morning, and the faces of the criminal investigation police officers all showed tired expressions. The next afternoon, the autopsy results came out. 1. The wound was pierced by a dagger held in the right hand; 2. The injury, the deceased had a physiological reaction before his death; 3. The wound was cut horizontally from the top of the nipple on the left chest toward the middle of the body.The length of the wound surface is about 3.6 cm, and the width is about 0.2 cm.Cut deep between the ribs, and the depth is about 10.8 cm.The pleura and the upper lobe of the left lung were pierced by a dagger; 4. Cause of death, left lung injury and internal hemorrhage in the left chest; 5. Time of death, between 8pm and 10pm on August 11; 6. Conclusion, based on the stab wound Depth, location, direction, and other conditions are judged as homicide. However, one thing cannot be ignored, Mr. Otake was still alive around nine o'clock in the evening.This fact was confirmed by Yoshii-kun over the phone.Therefore, the time of death should be set within one hour after nine o'clock in the evening. During this period of time, the murderer neither showed his figure nor made any sound in the corridor under the watchful eyes of the security guards or waitresses, and flew into room 314 like smoke.After committing the crime, he disappeared like smoke from the gap of the door with the safety hasp and the corridor exposed to the waiter's sight. On August 12, the Haneda Airport Police Station established the "Airport 8.11 Homicide Investigation Task Force." On the afternoon of August 12, the first meeting of the task force was held in the conference room of the Airport Police Station on the first floor of the main building of the Airport Building. Attending the meeting were Sergeant Nasu, who was in charge of the investigation of this case from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Serious Criminal Investigation Division 1, and criminal investigation police officers such as Yamaji-kun, Kusaba-kun, Kasai-kun, and Watto-kun; Director Doi of the Airport Police Station; and Criminal investigation police officers such as Shi Jun and Watanabe Jun; and technical police officers sent by the Technical Appraisal Section of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.The meeting was chaired by Director Doi of the Airport Police Station. First, Director Doi gave a speech, and then Chief Nasu introduced the investigation situation in the past few days. "——Through the on-site search and evidence collection and autopsy results, it is fully proved that this is a homicide. Although it is determined to be a homicide, there are many puzzling mysteries at the scene. In order to solve these mysteries, I propose to solve the case from the beginning start." Having said that, Chief Nasu paused.From his sunken eye sockets, sharp eyes shot out and scanned the entire venue, with a very serious expression.Inspector Nasu, due to the removal of several ribs affecting the chest when he was young, his right shoulder slops down.He doesn't like to go to the hospital to see a doctor.Although at that time, hemoptysis every day, the symptoms were not mild, but he insisted on folk remedies, decocting earthworms and crickets every day.Later, family and friends forcibly took him to the hospital on a stretcher for medical treatment.But he refused to be admitted to the hospital and insisted on recuperating at home. He went from field patrol officer to criminal investigation officer and then sheriff.Since then, he has remained in the post of sheriff.But he doesn't care what kind of official he is, as long as he can solve murders and arrest criminals every day. "According to the forensic autopsy, the inferred time of death was from 8:00 to 10:00 last night. However, Mr. Yoshii, the secretary of the victim, talked with the victim on the phone around 9:00 and repeatedly emphasized that he was still alive at that time. Therefore, the time of death can only be postponed to after 9:00. According to the testimony of Mr. Yoshii and Ms. Changzi, room 314 is the scene of a secret room. After on-site investigation and evidence collection, the safety buckle that Mr. Yoshii and others broke into by crashing into the door was indeed damaged at that time, not before. . "Speaking of the time period when the death was inferred, the service desk on the third floor was on duty successively by the security guard Jiang Chajun and the waitress Ms. Oishi Tsuneko. According to their testimony, not only did no one enter or exit the room 314, even the people near the door nor. "Just imagine, the criminal must pass through the corridor before committing the crime, and then open the door of room 314. But how did the murderer break through these two tight lines of defense? "No matter how cunning the murderer is, or how peculiar the method of committing the crime is, there must be a space to escape after committing the crime. Do you think so? This case is a case that happened in real life, not a case written in a mystery novel. There must be a search time here." The missing part. On this issue, I would like to ask everyone to think carefully and recall it!" After Nasu Inspector finished speaking, he glanced at everyone again, signaling for everyone to speak enthusiastically.Although he doesn't look very imposing in appearance and has a thin and thin figure, his name has made many criminal suspects fearful.He is well-known in Tokyo detective circles. "Does the suspicion of suicide no longer exist?" The mountain road police officer asked a question.In Nasu Sheriff's criminal investigation team, his qualifications are second only to Nasu Sheriff.Although he is also thin and small, he is full of energy and fighting spirit.Small and well-proportioned face, even though it is not young, it is still a baby face.The lower part of the nose is constantly sweating, and it is always wet like a police dog.It is said that sweating in this part proves good health. The suicide mentioned by the Shanlu police officer just now has been completely negated by the observation of the body's appearance and the conclusion of the forensic doctor's autopsy.In the case of suicide, it is impossible for the deceased to arrange the suicide scene there, even if there is, it is rare.If he committed suicide, there would be no need for the police to set up any investigation task force. In this case, although there is suspicion of homicide, if the mystery of how the murderer entered and exited room 314 while avoiding the sight of waiters and security guards can not be solved, the task force will have to investigate suicide and homicide at the same time. "Specialist Otake is the top person in charge of ANA in charge of the aftermath of the plane accident, and the conflict with the families of the victims was very intense. It should be said that the motive for suicide." The mountain road police officer shrugged his wet nose and said. "I always feel a little weird." It was Officer Crossing who interjected.His surname is very special, and his face looks like a monkey, so everyone gave him a beautiful nickname, "Imported Monkey".He is the one who talks the most in the Metropolitan Police Department. "What's strange?" Officer Shanlu had a surprised expression on his face, as if the tip of his nose had been bumped hard. "Of course it's strange! The responsibility for the plane crash shouldn't be borne by Otake alone, right? According to what you say, the president of ANA and other top leaders have to commit suicide by cutting open their stomachs." "Maybe there are other reasons? It may also be nervous and worried about being held accountable for the accident." Officer Shanlu still insisted on his opinion. "Then, the way the dagger is held does not match the shape of the wound. How can this be explained? There is also the suicide method of stabbing the chest from the outside of the shirt, which is also inconceivable." The crossing officer showed no sign of weakness.Suddenly, the atmosphere of the meeting became lively. "The practice of adjusting the posture of holding the dagger after committing suicide is strange, but it should not be misunderstood as something suspicious. The suicide method of stabbing one's own chest from the outside of the shirt cannot be completely denied just because it is different from the general suicide method. Die with a knife is enough to prove suicide." Police officer Shanlu is unwilling to give up the proposition that Dazhu's special affairs department committed suicide anyway. “你的主张在现实中究竟有没有，姑且不去评论。可我总觉得，你的自杀主张里有很多不能自圆其说的地方。例如，握匕首的手势，死后趁身体还没有僵硬前调整握匕首的姿势，是根本不可能的！” 山路警官与横渡警官之间，展开了无休止的争论。 “从门外侧挂上安全搭扣的方法，难道就没有吗？如果使用特制的铁丝、磁铁石之类的东西，是完全可以办得到的。” 渡边警官则以现场外部为前提，向会议提出疑问。渡边警官的外表，长得英俊潇洒，身材魁梧。 山路警官的主张，有一定道理。但无疑还有一个尚未浮出水面的有力证据。作为专案组的整体意见，以他杀案论处。这也是绝大多数刑事侦察警官的意见。再说根据解剖的结论，死者伤口的深度和角度都足以证明他杀。经过权威的科学论证，也肯定了他杀。 渡边警官提出的疑问，是站在他杀这一立场上。 “我还记得，侦探推理电视剧里有过类似的情节。从门缝插入钢笔之类的东西，卸下房门内侧的安全搭扣。” 粗看就知道是工薪阶层的十君警官，也站在渡边警官一边。 “我们虽做过多次实验，使用了各种道具从门缝插入，可结果没能将安全搭扣卸下，莫非还有我们未知的替代品。可我还是觉得不太可能。为挂上安全搭扣，必须把门打开。从那么狭小的门缝里，手臂和钢笔是无论如何够不着的。” 那须警长解释道。 “如果像铁丝那么细的东西，怎么样？” 渡边警官接着说。 “宾馆客房的门与我们家的房门不同，密封性好，门上不可能有铁丝穿越过去的间隙。” 被那须警长这么一说，渡边警官不再吭声。 “走廊上，有什么没有搜索过的地方吗？” 这一回，轮到草场警官发表意见。他的长相，酷似法国喜剧演员。他擅长通过无拘无束的闲聊，让犯罪嫌疑人不知不觉地供认犯罪事实。 “从晚上六时到九时的时间段，是保安员江森君值班。从晚上九时到十时二十分前后吉井君出现的时间段，是服务员大石常子小姐值班。听说这两个时间段里，两人的视线没有离开过走廊。” 担任询问江森他俩的河西警官说。翻开他的刑事侦察史，可谓成绩卓著，功劳显赫。 “但这两名不清楚案件已经发生的服务员和保安员，难道在那时间段里一直瞪大眼睛注视着走廊吗？” 山路警官的说话语气，充满了怀疑的口吻。他不愿意扔掉自杀的提法，但必须以自杀作为前提，对所有情况持怀疑态度。 “他们没有必要说谎。在那个时间段里，即便离开服务台，也不能说成失职。宾馆方面，也没有那么严格的要求。” 河西警官的发言，直接涉及到宾馆的两名工作人员。他非常自信，曾就两人的工作表现向宾馆方面打听过。宾馆方面对他俩的评价很高，说他俩人完全可以信赖。 根据吉井君的证词，死亡时间可推至九点以后。凶手的作案确切时间，是九点到十点之间的一个小时。虽然最重要的证人，是当时在服务台值班的大石常子。可九点与保安员江森君交接班后，还与他闲聊了十分钟左右。在闲聊的十分钟里，两人没有离开服务台。 There was another silence.会议结论，对现场不可能解开的情况再进行一次搜索，加以确认。 此时，没有一个人希望发言。就是想发言，也举不出让人心服口服的引证材料。 “除对被害人周围展开搜索外，没有其他可以搜索的地方。只要找到一丝线索，许多令人费解的谜就能解开。自杀的可能性，也必须彻底调查清楚。山路君与渡边君组成'自杀调查小组'，寻找自杀证据。其他人以他杀为调查目标，分头调查取证。一，了解被害人的社会关系；二，了解被害人家庭；三，了解被害人在女人方面的关系。” 那须警长发出继续侦查的命令。会议虽没有收到预期的效果，可为大家提供了相互交流各自获得的信息和看法的机会，从而对本案展开了综合的讨论和详细的分析。 会议结束了，许多警官在离开会议室的时候，犹如船在大雾弥漫的海上航行，失去了前进的方向，白白耗费了许多时间，却没有丝毫进展。此时此刻，凶手一定在黑暗中发出得意的狞笑，讥讽在迷途上徘徊的警官们。复杂的凶杀案，预示着警官们将艰难地走过漫长的侦破道路。
