Chapter 12 Section 4

"There will be no such thing!" Nobuo's wife Kikuko said hesitantly, "And, didn't the doctor also say that my brother-in-law died of a heart attack? Isn't this considered a natural death?" "Although this is the case, it is not certain that he died of illness." Zhezi whispered in a somewhat arrogant tone.All eyes immediately focused on her.She continued, "If the cause of death is said to be heart paralysis, is the subjective will of a third party involved?" "Could it be possible to consciously paralyze the heart? It seems unreasonable." Tonji said in a very light tone.No matter Tetsuko or Atsushi, there is no sense of grief for the dead relatives from their words.

"Why did sister say that?" Erlang asked with his tired eyes lowered. Michiyo took a deep breath, and then let it out slowly. "Because there are a lot of unexplainable things. First, the lock on the bathroom door. My husband has never locked the door in the shower. Second, his hair is not wet. I say this because he used to get in the tub before he took a shower. He will definitely wash his hair first, this is his habit." For a moment, everyone seemed to have stopped breathing.The thing about the bathroom locking the door from the inside was out of the ordinary for everyone.

"Aside from locking the door, is it because you drank too much alcohol that you didn't wash your hair?" Li Yan asked a question. "No. Definitely not." Michiyo immediately denied Toshihiko's statement. "He washes his hair first no matter what, anytime." Her answer was full of confidence, and no one refuted her. "Nobuo," Michiyo called his younger brother, who looked up in surprise. "Your design firm is in trouble right now? You have borrowed money from my husband many times, but he refused because there was no condition to guarantee the repayment on time, right? Even your wife's own brother can't accommodate you. That's what my husband does. I know you hate him very much for that."

"Sister, are you doubting me?" Nobuo panicked, "Doubt me? Your own brother!" "Because he is his own younger brother, he was the first to bring it up." People felt a kind of majesty from Dao Dai's voice. "So, if you're going to give him a heart attack, it's not an effective way to persuade him to drink more alcohol before taking a bath." Dun Si said in a relaxed tone as if chatting, "Uncle's Bad heart, high chances of heart failure from high alcohol consumption. Even with regular booze, let alone vodka." "Shut up! Atsushi!" Nobuo glared at him fiercely. "I'm not the only one drinking with Xiaosan, your father is also there."

"Oh, really?" Dun Si shrank his neck. "What are you talking about! It has nothing to do with me." Erlang pouted and said, "I didn't try to persuade my elder brother to drink like you did. Besides, I don't have any motives." "It can't be so absolute." Dao Dai said.Her words made everyone's eyes focus on her again.Now, her voice seemed to have absolute power. "Although I don't know the specific situation, but in my husband's safe, there is your IOU of five million yen, and it has already expired." "That." Erlang frowned, "That's because I needed money for the shares, so I borrowed some."

"Honey, I don't think about this at all..." Makie stared at her husband. Erlang turned his face away, "I don't think it's necessary to tell you, and it will be paid back soon." "But the deadline..." "It's true that the deadline has passed, but the eldest brother said that you can wait for a few more days." "Did he say that?" Dao Dai stared suspiciously at Erlang's slack face. "Xiao San Shan said how many days can be extended?" Then, she added that it was unbelievable that Xiao San could say such a thing.Because Xiaosan never shows affection to relatives, she thinks this is very important.

"Even if you say that now, I can't pay it back immediately, because I have no choice." After hearing Erlang's words, Zhezi burst out laughing. "Didn't uncle say that when borrowing money, you should be respectful, but when it's time to pay back the money, you'll become more confident." Erlang's face turned red all of a sudden, and he stood up abruptly, wanting to continue to argue, but was stopped by Makie, so he sat down again. "Please calm down." Li Yan said in a calm tone, "Can drinking some alcohol normally cause heart failure? Probably not."

After hearing this, both Erlang and Nobuo couldn't help but nodded. "But it can't be said that it has nothing to do with it, can it?" Zhezi interrupted. "That's not absolutely impossible to cause death, right? There is a method, even if it fails, it will not leave any excuses, but if it dies, it will achieve the goal... What is this called?" "Not necessarily intentional." Dun Si replied immediately.I don't know why, these two people always sing together. "Yes, not necessarily on purpose. In this case, isn't it the best way to induce accidents by letting people with poor heart function take a shower after drinking a lot of alcohol? Moreover, doing so can also reduce guilt."

Maybe Tetsuko's words really made sense, so no one said anything for a while. "It is indeed a very insightful reasoning, Tetsuko." Michiyo said, "but this alone is not enough. The doctor said that he was stimulated after entering the bathroom, such as severe fright, or being stimulated by cold water... ..." "In this way, the person who gave him a strong stimulus is a criminal?" Li Yan said without thinking. "Atsushi, you went to the yard when Xiaosan entered the bathroom, didn't you?" Nobuo's wife Kikuko asked suddenly, and at the same time, this sentence seemed to remind Nobuo of something.

"Yeah, he did go out, or he went straight to the bathroom. What the hell did you do?" "Are you kidding? Why did it suddenly come to me again?" Suddenly, Atsushi became the target of everyone's criticism, which made him nervous all of a sudden, who didn't care about anything. "Maybe you don't have any reason to do these things yourself, but you may be instigated by someone. Let Xiaosan drink a lot of wine first, and then give him some strong stimulation when he takes a bath. Isn't this a wonderful cooperation ?" "Hey, what do you mean?"

Erlang roared, and Nobuo stood up abruptly, and the atmosphere suddenly became tense, with a sword on the verge of breaking out. "Sit down!" Dao Dai said, "What problem can be solved by fighting like this? Sit down first!" Seeing that both of them sat down, Dao Daicai said again: "Don't be emotional. Even if you say something to stimulate, it's not that simple. Everyone first think about it, what method was used to make him strongly stimulated? Only when we find a way can we find the real criminal, or his accomplices." "Wow." Erlang looked at Nobuo and the others and said. "Okay." Nobuo nodded in agreement. However, regarding how to stimulate him, this method of stimulation is also a big problem for everyone.In particular, the windows of the bathroom are screened, which limits the space for people's imagination.Because no force can be exerted from the outside, the mesh of the screen is only three millimeters wide. Under such circumstances, Tetsuko was the one who could express his thoughts that were accepted by everyone.She said, maybe it was pouring cold water on Xiao San from the window.The screens really can't keep out the water. "Although this method is feasible, it is more dangerous." Li Yan said, "Think about what will happen if it is not successful? Then uncle will clearly name the criminal, which is like a prank." "Could it be that something scary was made from the window to scare uncle?" Dun Si also put forward his own thoughts. "For example, get some devil's mask, it will be easier to dress up, and it can also be sloppy." "Although it's very special, it's not feasible." It was Michiyo who said this, "Xiaosan is not afraid of these things at all. And it was dark at that time, so I couldn't see anything." "That makes sense." Dun Si immediately gave up his point of view. After that, no one expressed any new opinions.In any case, such an idea can only be thought of by young people, so if Tetsuko and Atsushi are silent, almost no one will speak. "How about today?" Nobuo said in a tired tone. "Everyone is tired, and we can't think of a good way to go on like this. Besides, if the criminal is really among us, wouldn't he be able to escape, right?" Regarding Nobuo's proposal, even Erlang, who had always been against him, nodded in agreement. "Yes." Michiyo looked at everyone and sighed, "Let's stop here today." Some stood up grinning, while others were beating their backs.It's really tiring to think about it. Everyone has been in this room for several hours. "please wait." At this moment, a voice sounded.Who is talking here?Everyone didn't react at once, and even Li Yan didn't know who it was.After a while, I realized that it was Lily.Everyone was very surprised. "Oh, I have an idea, can I say it?" Yuriko asked Michiyo. Dao Dai, who was about to go back to his room, immediately said to her: "Please tell me." Yuriko looked at everyone, then turned her gaze to Li Yan: "I think it could be electricity?" "Electricity?" Li Yan asked back. "Could it be an electric shock?" Yuriko said. "Connect two wires together and put them in the bathtub, so that there will be an electric current in the water. In this case, not to mention people with heart disease, even healthy people can't stand it, and it will immediately lead to heart failure. Exhaustion." "It's very likely." Dun Si said, tapping his hand on the table. "But the question is, how are the wires connected?" "I think one of them may have come in through the screen window, and the other one was hidden from uncle's discovery by some means." "Then let's go to the bathroom and have a look!" Michiyo walked quickly to the bathroom, followed by everyone.Once in the bathroom you can figure out how the wires are concealed.Since there was a bathtub cover next to the screen window, everyone assumed that the wires were going from behind that to the bathtub. When they got to the bathroom, people found that there were indeed two places in the screen of the screen window that were stuffed there with something. "That's not bad at all. Oh, Miss Yuriko really did a great job." Nobuo patted Yuriko on the shoulder while talking, which made her feel very shy. "Wait a minute, please." Dunsi said with a frown, crossing his arms. "If someone really did this, then who is this person?" "If you want to do something like this, you must do it before your brother-in-law enters the bathroom." Nobuo said.After thinking about it for a while, he said, "We men are all in the living room, where were you women at that time?" Kikuko looked at the faces of Makieda and Michiyo: "We were all in Michiyo's sister's room at that time." "In that case..." Dao Dai suddenly looked around, "Where is Yuzhi? Where is she?" "She was still there just now, but..." Erlang looked around and said. "In her room." Dao Dai pushed away the crowd and ran straight to the corridor.When she opened Yuzhi's door, what she saw was Yuzhi's body hanging in the room.
