Chapter 24 Section 8

At noon on Saturday, after Yosuke returned home, the police investigating the case came.The same two police officers: Tamiya and Sanada.After the incident, they have met many times. "The house is a mess." Yangsuke said apologetically, and invited the two to the living room. "Is there any clue in the investigation of the case?" He looked at the faces of the two criminal policemen and asked, "That man... Has Nakano confessed?" "Not yet. It's tricky." With a wry smile on Tamiya's face, he glanced at Sanada.The muscles on the young detective's face twisted unnaturally.

"Actually, we came today to confirm one thing." Tamiya said. "confirm?" "yes." As he said that, Tamiya took out the notepad with some exaggerated movements. "Your wife -- Mata Taeko is very short-sighted, right? Normally, you can't do anything without glasses, right?" "Is such that." "Then you must wear glasses at home, right?" "It's...to be worn." The detective held his breath, and turned his gaze from the notepad to Yangsuke: "Your wife only wears contact lenses when she is out, right? We heard from Miss Miyuki."

"Contact lenses..." Yangsuke felt the heat behind his ears suddenly: Contact lenses... "Ms. Taeko was wearing contact lenses when she was killed. From this point of view, she should be going out, right?" "..." "Where are you planning to go?" The detective stared at Yosuke's face.Hirosuke avoided the gaze of the detective, and gripped his knees tightly with both hands.His palms felt sweaty. "That is to say, Madam hasn't changed her mind, she is planning to go to Nakano, right?" "No, it can't be like that. She changed her mind at the last moment, so she called the man to say no."

"You said that phone call." Officer Tamiya scratched his chin. "We went to the coffee shop called 'Renai' where the lady called. The clerk there still remembered the phone call Nakano had with him. Of course it is impossible to know the content of the call. But he remembered Nakano answering the phone. Situation. According to the clerk's testimony, Nakano did not appear panicked or angry at the time, and when he hung up the phone, he said, "Then I'll go over right now." That means... I'll go over right now. Don't you think it's strange? ? If Madam told him that he wanted to break up, he would definitely not have such a reaction. "

"But... my wife called the lady she knew. She said... she didn't want to see Nakano again." "That's why it's even more strange. My head is almost confused by these strange things. However, one thing makes sense, that is, is it your wife who is calling?" After the detectives left, Yangsuke was still sitting on the sofa blankly.His mind was full of Taeko's bloody body. Still not working. This is the worry that has been lingering in Chang Yangsuke's mind since yesterday.Yesterday, since the detective came, he had had this premonition and fear for some reason.

Yesterday, the detective went to Yosuke's company.Hōsuke remembered dealing with these detectives because of his work, but that was over.After he asked the detective, he realized that this time his daughter Miyuki commissioned the detective to investigate.It was because of this that the detectives came looking for him.He thought what an excessive and troublesome thing this young and ignorant daughter had done.But through this incident, he knew that Miyuki had doubts about himself and Tingzi.Yangsuke's mood became heavy, the original intention of their plan was to try not to let Miyuki suffer too much damage and blow!

"We have a clear grasp of your actions." The detective said, without any emotion in his words, "First of all, we have a big question. This is why you didn't tell Nakano Osamu about the incident after the incident. What about the police? Because you should know about the relationship between him and your wife. The reason why we say this is because we have investigated your wife's affair and reported it to you. " Seeing that Yangsuke remained silent, the detective continued: "You know far more than that, right? You also knew about your wife's plan to run away from home that day, right? But you didn't tell the police, what is it? why?"

"There is a reason." Yosuke replied.There was even a hint of melancholy in his voice. "There is a reason that I can't tell others." "If you don't tell us clearly," the detective stopped talking at this point, as if to observe the other party's reaction, "we can only report to your daughter what we know." "That would be troublesome." "We also thought it would be troublesome. However, we don't want to lie to the client without a good reason." Hirosuke let out a heavy breath and looked at the detective.However, both the detective and his assistant looked blank, showing no expression at all.

"Maybe you have found a clue?" Yangsuke said, "about what happened that day." "We imagined it," the detective said. "Whether it is correct or not is unclear." Yangsuke sighed subconsciously: he knew very well about the strength and ability of the Detective Club. "Is it clear? Then please tell us. After you tell us, we can decide our attitude." The detective shrugged and added, "Although I don't think it's fair, it's still like this Do it." Then, he nodded his jaw and took a sip of tea. "That day, other than you, Tingzi and Dianzi knew about Mrs. Taeko leaving home, right? Of course you told them. So the three of you decided to stop her plan no matter what. Then wait Madam calmed down and then slowly persuaded her. The way you stop her is very simple, that is, someone must be with her at all times. According to the plan, Tingzi will be at home from morning until after lunch, and then Dianzi will come after lunch. Soon you will come back early."

Yangsuke remained silent.The detective's reasoning was not wrong. "So far, we have never failed to report the real investigation results to the client. This time, it must be a last resort. But, in this case, your daughter will not have to pay the investigation fee." "Of course I will pay for it." "However, in the future, you need to develop the habit of putting your shoes in order after taking them off. It was probably Noriko who put them in order for you. This is one of the reasons why your daughter is suspicious." Yangsuke lowered his head again. Can these detectives subtly convince Miyuki?

Yosuke came to the balcony and looked up at the sky, he thought. Maybe one day all of this has to be said, Hōsuke realizes.So, this day, is it tomorrow or some day in ten years?Yangsuke was unpredictable. But thinking of the policeman's tone just now, Yangsuke knew that time didn't seem very far away.Yangsuke decided to speak up when the time came.Thinking of the scene at that time, Yangsuke straightened his body. At this time, he heard the door opening, followed by footsteps in the corridor.A few seconds later, he saw Miyuki, her face was flushed, holding a tennis racket in her right hand. "I'm back." Miyuki said loudly. Yangsuke looked at his daughter, and after a while, he also replied loudly: "Ah, you are back." It is a fine day in August.
