Tokyo Airport Murder Case 森村诚一 7801Words 2018-03-21
After Weigu was sent to the district procuratorate, he continued to deny the crimes of killing Mr. Otake and instigating Utoniyi to crash the plane. The tone of his denial made the prosecutors realize that Weigu was not based on the perspective of sentencing, but a fundamental denial. The law stipulates that the detention time of the procuratorate has been wasted for no reason.Since Weigu confessed to the crime of killing Utoniyi, even if he immediately prosecutes it, there will be no hindrance.There is a lot of doubt about Kegu's continuous killing of Dazhu, and it is related to this plane crash.In the prosecutor's view, the remaining time should be used as effectively as possible to achieve the desired effect.

At the same time as the interrogation of Yuiya, the airport 8.11 task force listed Gu's boss, Chiyoda Trading Co., Ltd. executive Sugihara Shozo as a suspect, and issued a summons notice to him.The place of interrogation was in the investigation room of the Metropolitan Police Department, which was the same place where Wei Gu was interrogated last time. Executive Sugihara drove slowly towards the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department in a high-end imported car.Although he has a big belly, his eagle-like eyes are aggressive and murderous. During the interrogation process, if the old and cunning Sugihara had the upper hand, the result would end in the failure of the police.

The criminal police officer who is in charge of interrogating Sugihara's chief is Sheriff Nasu.To deal with a big man like Mr. Sugihara, Sergeant Nasu is more suitable. In the long career of criminal investigation, Chief Nasu can be described as experienced and experienced.Most of its time is spent on how to deal with vicious criminals.His facial expression, without a smile from morning to night, was as cold as ice and monolithic. There is not much difference between him and his opponent in terms of majestic expression.The opponent is a person with a certain social status, so the method of inquiry must be cautious.Looking at Sergeant Nasu and Special Agent Sugihara who are about to face each other, they both seem to be cautious and serious, which can be said to be evenly matched.

"I'm ashamed to see you! Wei Gu is my former subordinate, but he did something that I can't understand, and caused you a lot of trouble. I'm really sorry!" When Executive Sugihara said these words, he still did not lose his majesty.Only in terms of speaking tone, it is relatively relaxed.On such occasions, if you are arrogant and arrogant, it is easy to collapse and fail. "You said Wei Gu was your former subordinate?" There was a perplexed look on Nasu Inspector's face.If you put yourself in the opponent's position, even if you don't have that majestic expression, Chief Nasu didn't find the ideal entry point from the beginning.

"Yes, he has indeed resigned." Specialist Sugihara had a calm, nonchalant expression. "Resign? When?" "About ten days ago." "Ten days ago, is that too early?" Inspector Nasu's tone was full of anger.If we say ten days ago, it was the time when Wei Gu was executed and arrested. A murderer cannot keep a job in a top-notch company, everyone knows that.But when he was arrested, he was expelled from the company. In a sense, it is unquestionable that Weigu killed people for the benefit of the company.Most of his criminal motives were caused by his vanity for meritorious service and promotion. After all, he did his best for the benefit of the company.This kind of crime may have a negative impact on the company, and the contributions and achievements so far will be completely obliterated, just like throwing away low-value consumables.Since Yuiya has resigned, Chiyoda Tsusho can speak out and claim that the criminal has nothing to do with the company.

Obviously, Wei Gu did not offer his resignation on his own initiative.Sheriff Nasu seemed to see the cruelty and selfishness of the enterprise. "In commercial enterprises, ten days can be said to be a long time ago. In short, the work pace of commercial companies is very fast. A few days ago, an employee who only took three days of sick leave was replaced by others when he returned to the company. Like our business Enterprises, personnel departments are the most distressed." Manager Sugihara smiled without hesitation.He didn't care about the police interrogation room at all, as if he was sitting in his own office.Apart from denials, Wei Gu did not reveal any materials related to Mr. Sugihara to the police.Therefore, Sergeant Nasu did not have any material to question the other party.

Regarding the killing of Otake and the crash of the All Nippon Airways plane, if Mr. Sugihara is confirmed to be related to Weigu, not only will the company’s reputation and interests plummet, but it will lead to his immediate downfall.In his opinion, any connection with Weigu must be severed. Inquiry, quickly over.The cunning of Mr. Sugihara far exceeded the police's pre-estimates. "asshole!" On the way back to the company from the Metropolitan Police Department, Sugihara was talking to himself.He was venting his anger, scolding so softly that even the driver didn't hear him.

The self-centered Sugihara faction is at a delicate moment of whether they can control the company's political power.It's just adding to the chaos while doing such a stupid thing.Now that the driver was by his side, he couldn't vent his anger, so he could only swallow his anger and mutter softly. ——Wei Gu, it is indeed a secret dagger on his waist that cuts iron like mud.But this dagger almost stabbed him in the head.Although he has always been obedient, like his own powerful arm, but now he must distance himself from him. For your own safety, the farther the distance, the better.Now, he must be looking forward to my salvation.To save him means to destroy oneself.People as loyal as him will still be found in the future.Only myself, once lost, can never be found again.

The stakes are very clear!In order to protect himself, Mr. Sugihara decided to kill the mess quickly, and cut Gu under his horse.Thinking about it, it’s not enough to just do it this way.The murderer appeared under the subordinate of Mr. Sugihara, but it was an excellent attack material for the opposition. As long as the situation related to these cases, I must draw a clear line between myself and Weigu. "I hinted at him more than once, probably no one else heard those words?" In the mind of Mr. Sugihara, he carefully pursued the memories of the past.In an instant, painful memories of being on an isolated island in the South Pacific more than 20 years ago flooded his mind.

The attack and defense of the island is geographically the gateway to the South Pacific.At that time, the Japanese and American armies launched a battle filled with gunpowder.Under the overwhelming artillery fire of the U.S. military, the Japanese army was deprived of sea air supremacy.As a result, Japan's food and ammunition supply lines were cut off. More people died of starvation than those who died on the battlefield.In such a heroic battle situation, they had to break out by destroyer at night.Braving air strikes and naval gunfire, everyone sprinted towards the seaside where the destroyer was docked.In the dense woods, one foot deep and one foot shallow.Along the way, many companions collapsed due to illness and hunger.They didn't even have hand grenades for suicide.Coupled with the fact that their limbs cannot move, they can only die with difficulty, and then rot. Some people who are alive and can walk, chewing the flesh of the dead, desperately march towards the sea.By the time they got to the seaside, one-third of the people were left.

The destroyer was unable to dock, and could only berth in shallow seas two hundred meters away from the shore.Everyone is exhausted, but they must swim across, and the speed must be fast.Before swimming to the destroyer, once spotted by enemy planes and enemy submarines, you will die.During the swim, some soldiers were swallowed by the sea due to exhaustion.At that time, even if he was full of compassion, he had more than enough heart but not enough energy.In order to keep themselves alive, they are all swimming hard.After finally swimming to the side of the boat, another insurmountable obstacle appeared.It was an iron ladder about ten meters along the side of the ship. Only by climbing up the iron ladder could one get on the deck. The soldiers swam as far as they could to escape death, but they still had to climb the iron ladder.In the eyes of the surviving soldiers, climbing iron ladders is the most cruel, even more terrifying than rolling nail boards.Although the iron ladder is only about ten meters long, it seems to be higher than the sky. "Come on!" "Go harder!" On the deck, the cheers of the crew came.But the soldiers couldn't exert their physical strength, and they had to climb up in order to survive.It is better to rot in the dense forest than to die in the sea feeding fish. The companions desperately pulled the iron ladder to climb up.Some climbed to the way with great difficulty, but because they couldn't exert the last bit of strength, they fell into the sea and never surfaced again. Sugihara, who finally struggled out of the sea, always felt extra heavy on his feet.He looked back, and it turned out that he was usually his closest comrade-in-arms. "Please, take me!" The man tugged at Sugihara's feet, begging Sugihara desperately.He pinned his hope of life on Sugihara's feet.Sugihara also clearly remembered that there was a one-year-old wife and a newborn child in the comrade-in-arms’ home. But Sugihara was also on the verge of death, unable to save his close comrade-in-arms.Sugihara shook his feet, trying to break free from his comrade-in-arms' grip.When the comrade-in-arms realized Sugihara's attempt, he dragged desperately.One is shaking his foot, the other is pulling his foot, both are dying. "Let go!" "Please! Take me!" This pair of comrades-in-arms who once helped each other on the hellish battlefield, now turn against each other and return their favor. "Hey, if you don't let go, I will..." On Sugihara's feet, he bears the force of his comrade-in-arms like pincers.Suddenly, he raised his foot and kicked his comrade's nose.Immediately afterwards, he suffocated all his strength and kicked again towards the bridge of the nose of his comrade who was crying to him.At this time, Sugihara felt as if his feet were stepping on overripe persimmons.Suddenly, shrill shouts flew into the air, and bright red nosebleeds splashed everywhere. Due to Sugihara's series of violent blows, the lives of the surviving comrades-in-arms were finally brought to an end. The comrades who were kicked into the water by Sugihara soon sank to the bottom of the sea.Floating on the surface of the sea is the blood spurted from the noses and mouths of comrades-in-arms.As a burst of waves rushed, the blood was immediately dissolved in the water without a trace.Sugihara can't take care of "farewell" The comrades-in-arms, but fortunately went into battle lightly, and kept climbing up the iron ladder. Abandoning his comrades-in-arms, Sugihara suddenly felt that he was gradually leaving the brink of death. The current situation is exactly the same as it was then.At that time, facing his comrades who desperately grabbed him, he was so angry that he couldn't beat him.Why do some people depend on others for their survival when everyone is doing their best to keep themselves alive?Not only that, but it hinders the survival of others. On the battlefield at that time, the two did help each other.But every second counts at critical moments!Especially at the edge of life and death, people should rely on their own strength to overcome death. Wei Gu, just like that comrade in arms back then, is desperately pulling his leg... Sugihara is in love with the scene, and the past is vivid in his mind. Even if there is no attack from planes and submarines, once the thinking is slow and the tactics are clumsy, precious lives will be lost. Currently, I am in a huge enterprise, once I lose, not only my status within the company and in society, but also... "Asshole, idiot!" Sugihara couldn't help but raise his voice loudly, screaming wildly.The driver thought his boss was reprimanding him, so he turned away quickly. "It's none of your business, it's none of your business!" Just as he was waving his hand to the driver, the car had already parked in front of Chiyoda Trading Company's headquarters... Chiyoda Building. The detection work of the airport 8.11 task force has been temporarily stranded.Wei Gu, who was detained in the procuratorate, still insisted on only killing Utoniyi's confession. The detention time for homicide cases in the procuratorate can be extended in almost all cases.Prosecutors made full use of the time given by the law to collect materials found to be Gu's guilt, so as to ensure the accuracy of the prosecution. Because of Weigu's persistent denial, prosecutors began to fundamentally doubt the possibility of Weigu directly killing Otake and instigating the crash of the All Nippon Airways plane.Especially when Dazhu was murdered, Weigu had neither the possibility of being at the crime scene nor the time for committing the crime.In addition, the mystery of the double chamber has not yet been solved. This is also the case within the Airport 8.11 task force responsible for detecting Otake's murder and solving the mystery of the double chamber. "Maybe apart from killing Utoniyi, other things have nothing to do with Weigu?" Over time, this view became the dominant view of the task force.In order to ensure the smooth progress of the case-solving work, Chief Nasu decided to hold a meeting of all police officers of the task force to discuss. The first is the time of committing the crime of killing Dazhu.Ke Gu was in New York at the time and has been confirmed.The only possibility is either to be an accomplice or to instigate the killer.However, according to the investigation so far, there is no abnormal situation around Weigu. The so-called instigation of killers refers to those who cannot bear the legal responsibility to commit crimes instead of themselves. "Assuming that Wei Gu was an accomplice or instigated others to commit a crime, how did the killer get in and out of the double chamber? Now, the attempt to open the gap from the suspect's mouth has failed. I think it is necessary to re-investigate the scene." In order to induce everyone to speak freely, Chief Nasu's opening remarks were very instructive. Officer Watanabe couldn't wait a long time ago, and hurriedly stood up to speak. "After careful consideration, Weigu had no motive to kill Dazhu." All of a sudden, everyone's eyes focused on Officer Watanabe's face. "We have always simply believed that the Kurusa faction got rid of Otake, the core figure of the Sprudo faction, in order to benefit ourselves. But killing Otake alone does not affect the movement of the All Nippon Airlines model selection committee. Compared with Otake Specialist, Yoshimura's proposition is the most threatening to the Kurusa faction. It stands to reason that the Kurusa faction should get rid of Yoshimura Kentaro first. "Yoshimura-kun was pushed from the platform to the position of the tram track, but he was slightly in front of the tram parking area. Obviously, the criminal had no intention of killing. That is to say, the criminal had no intention of killing Yoshimura-kun from the beginning. I think , This is a kind of warning from the Kurusa faction. Otake is an important person with considerable status and importance. Only by killing him can he be silenced. Yoshimura-kun is an ordinary civil servant of the Ministry of Aviation. A warning is enough. —— Yoshimura He is a professional, and Specialist Otake is a high-level cadre from the grassroots. Specialist Otake contacted Mr. Yoshimura because Mr. Yoshimura is proficient in aircraft structure and related technologies. Besides, Mr. Yoshimura is a member of the investigation team for the cause of the aircraft accident. Although he was in the The investigation team is alone and helpless, but it is the most threatening to the Kurusa faction compared to the hard-working Specialist Otake. Yoshimura should be killed first. In other words, the killing of Specialist Otake and Mr. Yoshimura should at least be carried out simultaneously. For the murderer To put it bluntly, Yoshimura-kun should be the greatest danger that exists after the killing of Mr. Otake. But Yoshimura-kun, there is no danger at all. It can be seen that there is no necessary connection between the murderer and the crash of the All Nippon Airways plane. If the murderer was not involved in the crash No matter how Yoshimura-kun insists on the crime of the Japan Airlines plane, the murderer should not have any reaction. "As Weigu said, in terms of sentencing, killing one is the same as killing two. If he is the murderer who killed Executive Dazhu, he will definitely confess. He only admits to killing Utoniyi, but not Executive Dazhu. It is also impossible to reduce the crime. Moreover, we have no conclusive evidence to prove that the murderer who killed Mr. Otake was directly related to the accident of the All Nippon Airways plane. There is no necessary connection. That is to say, Gu’s confession is true.” When Police Officer Watanabe finally stopped his "long report", someone took a deep breath.This shows that Watanabe's analysis revealed the doubts that had sprouted in his heart long ago. "So, who killed Executive Dazhu?" Nomura Ichimatsu and Komuro Yukiko were neither at the scene nor at the time of the crime. "Next, I'm going to talk about the ANA plane that crashed." Police Chief Nasu and Police Officer Yamaji spoke one after another.Leaving Wei Gu aside, it is impossible to list other suspects.However, the autopsy of Mr. Dazhu showed that it was indeed a homicide.The crash of All Nippon Airways 4301 passenger plane does have traces of man-made destruction. "I've sorted out Wei Gu's confession a little bit." Police officer Hexi, who had been writing frequently on the table, stood up to speak.He walked to the blackboard and drew a table that he had just drawn in his notebook.Then, face everyone and explain to everyone like a teacher in class. "What Weigu confesses now is only the crime of killing Utoniyi. He denies all the other three crimes. With regard to these three crimes, let me compare Weigu's advantages and disadvantages. After comparison, the result is five to two. The "one" in the column about the All Nippon Airways crash accident is not good for Weigu. If it is true that Weigu killed Utoniyi, it may contain 50% favorable factors for Weigu. Expert Otake The "one" and "two" in the column of affairs and the "one" in the column of Mr. Yoshimura are very beneficial to Weigu. That is to say, the facts of Weigu's crime can be fundamentally denied. According to this table According to the analysis, as Police Officer Watanabe said, I also think that Weigu only killed Utoniyi." Tabular explanations are easy to understand and convincing. If these three cases have no intrinsic connection with each other, who is the murderer?The investigation took a long detour due to the focus on corporate conspiracy from the very beginning. Police officer Hexi only explained through diagrams, emphasizing that the three cases were independent crimes.And who is the murderer, it seems unclear. When the members of the conference room were lost in thought, Police Officer Ten Jun raised his face and looked at everyone, as if saying that I have a solution. Officer Nasu's eyes were sharp, and he had already noticed Officer Shijun's expression about to speak, so he raised his chin to signal him to speak. The detection meeting is a meeting of brainstorming and exerting collective wisdom.When everyone speaks enthusiastically, new ideas, new inspirations, and new discoveries will often be produced, so as to prevent the arbitrariness like a famous detective in mystery novels from appearing in the actual investigation process. If the meeting falls into a stalemate of silence, it may not achieve the desired effect. Only when everyone speaks enthusiastically and constantly expresses their own views can there be climaxes and achieve the desired effect of the meeting. "Just now, I had a sudden idea." Police officer Shijun quickly described his thoughts. "When Weigu himself confessed to killing Utoniyi, he said that he neither knew that Utoniyi's son was hit and killed by Komuro Yasuhiko's car, nor that Komuro Yasuhiko was on plane 4301." ——What can this explain?The eyes of all the police officers coincidentally shot at Officer Shijun. "If this situation is true, no matter what method Wei Gu uses to instigate, no matter how Utoni insists on 'making money', I don't think there is any need for them to crash the plane." "But in fact it has crashed, and Utoni threatened Weigu on this ground, but was killed by Weigu." Sergeant Nasu interrupted.This is not an objection, but an explanation. "That's right. The content of the instigation that can become a threat cannot be determined right now. This is what I think. If the person who instigated Utoni to convert is someone other than Weigu, do you think it is possible?" "You, what did you say?" Several police officers spoke in unison. So far, no one has dared to reason like this. "That is to say, the person who reported to Utoni that Yasuhiko Komuro was on board 4301 was not Yugu, but another person." Hearing this, no one expressed any doubts.Just now, due to the sudden emergence of a new idea, everyone could not accept it immediately. "According to this new way of thinking, the reasoning is feasible and logical. I also imitated Hexi police officer and drew a table to explain to everyone." Police Officer Ten Jun stood in front of the blackboard. "Assume that the person other than Gu is 'X'. Let 'X' hint to Utoini the news that Xiaoshi took the 4301 plane as 'A'. Then let Gu's hint be 'B'. Just like the confession for Gu As stated, the purpose of 'B' was not to make aircraft 4301 lethal, and Utoniyi agreed. Just as Utoniyi was about to carry out the purpose of 'B', the hint of 'A' appeared, which ignited his The fire of vengeance, Utoniyi who became a 'revenge mad', took this as a turning point and converted 'B' into 'A'. In this way, ANA's 4301 fleet was destroyed. "But Utoni relied on the threats as Gu, always said that the result of the plane crash was the purpose of 'B', and kept threatening Weigu. "That is to say, only 'X' is the mysterious person who knew that Xiaoshi was going back to China on flight 4301. "There is no relationship between Weigu and Xiaoshi. Moreover, the possibility of Weigu knowing that Xiaoshi took that flight is extremely small." After Officer Shi Jun finished speaking, there was thunderous applause in the venue.His speech brought a new idea for the police officers to solve the case. But who is "X"?Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing.Although the reasoning and explanation about the crash of the All Nippon Airways plane satisfies everyone.However, Dazhu's executive was killed, and it was always like a cloud. "As we all know, Komuro Yasuhiko invested a huge amount of 30 million yen in travel insurance for this business trip alone. I always feel that he is related to this plane crash, and it is very likely that he did not take this plane. "According to what we have learned, in the case of international flights, even if there are one or two passengers in the passenger registration list and the actual number of passengers, the plane will still take off. The planes waiting on the ground and above the airport are all queuing up to enter the runway in order, or Take off or land. Imagine that each flight of an aircraft is worth billions of yen. If you just wait on the ground, tens of thousands of yen will be lost every minute. In this regard, the passenger register is unreliable. More importantly, Xiaoshi's body has not been found yet." The mountain road police officer was sweating again under his nose.While wiping his sweat, he sang a different tune. "No, Yasuhiko Komuro must be on board 4301. Otherwise, Utoni would not have tampered with the plane. "For the perpetrator who took his son's life, Utoni still has an unforgettable memory, gritted his teeth, and will never forget that face that he will never forget. During the flight, the plane needs to be refueled midway. When refueling, all passengers must leave the plane . "At this moment, Utoni can easily identify and verify by standing by the gangway. And when counting the number of passengers at the last midway airport, the actual number must be consistent with the number on the list." After months of working on the airport's 8/11 task force, the officers became familiar with some basic aviation terminology. "According to what you said, the regular insurance amount of 30 million yen insurance is not a big amount. It seems that it may be a crime of fraud with an insurance amount of 30 million yen?" "What makes us feel strange is that the insurance claimant is not Yasuhiko Komuro's wife. It can be seen that Yasuhiko Komuro attempted to jointly defraud a huge amount of insurance money with that woman. But after thinking about it carefully, they crashed a car for 30 million yen. It seems impossible. Besides, Yasuhiko Komuro’s family is not in a difficult situation. He is also a cadre training target of All Nippon Airlines. With an insurance amount of 30 million yen, he only needs to pay 17,000 yen a month. That is to say, it is impossible for Komuro Yasuhiko to bet his life on another woman so easily." The T marine fire foreign travel injury insurance insured by Komuro means that during the one-month foreign travel period, no matter what injuries or fatal accidents are encountered, the full amount can be paid to the recipient according to the contract.This type of insurance is the highest limit of personal insurance.Beyond this limit, the contractual conditions appear particularly complex.And when it is cashed out, it will be dealt with according to the specific situation, and the amount of compensation must be finally determined by the Minister. Although 30 million yen is not a small sum.You can pay as little as 17,000 yen per month.For Komuro, regular monthly payments are nothing.As for the insured and recipients of Yasuhiko Komuro, police officers Hengdu and Shijun conducted a detailed investigation.The insurance company replied that although it is the maximum limit of personal insurance, it is not uncommon for policyholders.Therefore, Police Officer Shijun and Officer Crossing, who suspected of committing crimes of insurance fraud, had to give up. "Even so, why didn't Komuro Yasuhiko write his wife's name in the recipient column?" Inspector Nasu's eyes were piercing, and he glanced at everyone. "After investigation, the recipient is indeed the daughter of Dazhu's executive, what's her name..." "It's Meihe!" The crossing officer added.Although he had reported this situation to Sergeant Nasu, he didn't seem to pay enough attention to it.In the recent period, Officer Shijun and Officer Crossing focused their attention on Miwa Otake, but found no sign of contact with Yasuhiko Komuro.For this reason, the airport 8.11 task force firmly believes that Komuro Yasuhiko and 4301 plane crashed in Tokyo Bay. "In addition to the 30 million yen insured, Komuro also has an insured of 10 million yen. The names of the recipients are all Otake Miwa!" "yes." Officer Crossing and Officer Ten Jun spoke in unison. "The crash of the All Nippon Airways plane should not be confused with Yasuhiko Komuro's separate crime of fraudulent insurance money. But the relationship between him and Miwa Otake, it is best to investigate carefully! Also, Yukiko Komuro has been in a coffee shop with Kentaro Yoshimura recently A date. The police officer in charge of tracking the two of them should not take it lightly, and should strengthen surveillance! Maybe something new can be discovered?!" The results of the meeting unified the understanding of all the police officers handling the case.The All Nippon Airways crash and the two homicides were separate crimes with no intrinsic connection to each other.In addition, the person who instigated the crash of Utoniyi was a mysterious person, who was assumed to be "X" by the task force.
