Chapter 33 Section 9

The day after Abe Sachio's funeral, Fumiko was at home.It's been a long time since I stayed at home so leisurely.At this time, the Komura detective who was in charge of the investigation of the case came.Ask him to come in and sit down, but he said that it is fine here, so he sat down in the porch. "Well, how about that case?" Fumiko asked in fear. "That's why I came here." Komura raised his eyes and glanced into the distance, with an expression of considering his words, "Finally, we have found out the truth." Fumiko knelt on the floor and straightened her back.

"The criminal seems to be Manabe Koichi." "Huh?" She couldn't help calling out. "Manabe is the culprit. He firmly believes that there is a problem between Abe Satoshio and his wife, and he is going to kill the two and make it look like they died in love." "This……" "It's reasonable to think so." What Detective Komura said was roughly as follows—— Manabe, who learned of his wife's infidelity from Fumiko, hated them so much that he finally thought of killing them.So he planned to invite the two people to the hotel in Izu, where they created a death scene for them.He first invited Abe to play golf.The two played together a lot in the past, so it's not surprising.Then he booked a room under the name of Satoshi Abe, and invited the two to the hotel on the same day.

After inviting Abe, he invited Akiko to travel and booked a room under his wife's name.In other words, he reserved rooms under the names of Tomoo Abe and Akiko Manabe.We already knew what Shinnabe Koichi did that day, and he asked Akiko to go to the hotel to check in.In order not to let the hotel waiter see him, he stayed in a nearby restaurant for a while.Then go to the room. After arriving at the hotel, he went to Abe's room alone and put poison in the beer.After he moved Abe to the bed and made him fall asleep, he called his wife again, planning to kill Qiuzi in the same way, and then put the two bodies together so that no one would see him. You can get away after it's done.

However, when killing Qiuzi, unexpectedly, there was a mistake: Qiuzi poured the beer mixed with poison in his own cup into his cup.Gong Yi, who didn't know this situation, never thought that he had exhausted all his tricks and lost his life. "We tested the two beer bottles and three glasses, and found potassium cyanide in one of the beer bottles. There was beer mixed with potassium cyanide in the three glasses, but that one seemed to be the real thing. The cup used by Mr. Yi has a lower concentration of potassium cyanide than the other two cups. This is probably because there was no poison in the cup at first, and then Mrs. Qiuzi poured some beer from her own cup into her husband's cup because of it."

"Where did you get the potassium cyanide, then?" "Gongyi's younger brother runs a metal processing factory, and it seems to use this thing there, and it's easy to get a little out of it." The detective added: "I didn't expect the management of the factory to be so chaotic." "Then it's my fault for telling him first." Fumiko lowered her head and blamed herself.If what the criminal police said was true, then the affair he told Gongyi was the fuse of the case. "The result is like this, but you don't have to blame yourself too much, because the woman in the photo, even Gong Yi thinks it is his wife. Unfortunately, I haven't found that photo yet."

The criminal police also said that they would contact her again if there was anything else, so they left Fumiko's house. Fumiko sent him out of the entrance, and kept watching his back until she was out of sight.
