Chapter 20 Chapter Twenty

Katsuragi Jyuri's wake is held at a temple a 15-minute drive from Katsuragi Mansion.Our company's cyber planning also assists and offers incense, and I am one of them.Reception of VIPs and other major tasks, of course, are handled by the people of Sunstar Motors. We are responsible for standing on street corners and guiding roads. For the funeral of the vice-president of Sunstar Motors, Qianjin, the entire temple was filled with mourners. Even though the line for offering incense had already lined up in five rows, there were still so many people that they had to line up on the main road.After the wake-up ceremony, there will be the funeral ceremony tomorrow. The situation tonight makes those who will come to help tomorrow whisper and wonder what the situation will be like tomorrow.

After the condolences came to an end, we rested in the lounge.Sushi and beer were prepared there, but they couldn't eat too much at this time, so Otsuka ordered everyone to have a glass of beer first. "Mr. Katsuragi is really depressed." Sugimoto said in a low voice: "When I was offering incense, I took a peek at him. It was the first time I saw Mr. Katsuragi so depressed. I always felt that he It’s full of confidence and has a plan in mind.” "Of course, anyway, it's my daughter who passed away," the colleague replied, "Besides, it's not an ordinary way to die."

"I think he has already been mentally prepared, but once it becomes a reality, he will still suffer a lot of shock." "Of course, to be honest, I also wondered if I had been killed. But I was actually shocked when I saw the news." "What kind of person will the prisoner be?" "I don't know what kind of person it is. Would you know that she is the daughter of the vice president of Sunstar Motors and kill her?" "Let me tell you, there hasn't been any detailed report yet." Sugimoto said this, looked around for a while, and then covered his mouth with his hand and said, "It seems that Ms. Juli who was killed is not the child of the current wife."

"Oh, I've heard that too." "And it's not the child of the ex-wife." "Huh? Whose child would that be?" "My mistress' child, it seems to be adopted." "Hey... Mr. Katsuragi..." "I don't know if it's because of this, but the current wife's spirit seems to be much better than that of Mr. Katsuragi's. Maybe she's relieved that this kind of troublesome oil bottle is dead." What Sugimoto said made his colleagues secretly laugh, and this situation was seen by Kotsuka. "Don't talk nonsense! We're not the only ones here!"

Being scolded, Sugimoto shrugged. I was a little taken aback by how much they knew about the secret of Jyuri's parentage.Because I think this should be the top secret of the Katsuragi family.The gossip shows on TV don't talk about this at all, and the mechanics of not messing with big sponsors are useful anyway.Sugimoto and the others must have leaked the information from somewhere.It seems that once the incident turns into a murder, even if Katsuragi Katsutoshi has great abilities, there is no way to cover the sky with one hand. However, what I care most about is still Sugimoto's last sentence just now.Indeed, Juli's death should have reshuffled the complex interpersonal relationships of the Katsuragi family, but I don't know how the Katsuragi family views this matter.

The figure of the fake Jyuri-Katsuragi Chiharu did not appear on the wake.The bereaved family didn't give us any explanation on this point. As for the relatives and friends, they probably felt unwell after being hit by this incident.Even the school has asked for leave, so it cannot be said that it is not convincing. But I watched from the sidelines and knew very clearly that the reason why Qianchun didn't show up was because of something else.In other words, she didn't want to appear in front of me.She's afraid I'll say something to her! Katsutoshi Katsuragi, no!The Katsuragi family must have concealed something, and it was intentional.This is beyond doubt.

Katsuragi's body was found on the hills of the Miura Peninsula.Residents nearby found that the body was buried in the soil. Although it had begun to decompose, the comparison of fingerprints and teeth proved that this was the missing tree! According to the report, Katsuragi Juri's heart was pierced with a sharp object. From the fact that the wound was bleeding profusely, it is speculated that this may be a homicide case.Part of the clothing was taken off, but no belongings were found. I couldn't help but mind where the body was found, and that's where it was.The news reports didn't specify the location, but I don't think there's anywhere else.

If so, why did Shuli's body appear in that place?Why does Qianchun want me to go there with her so much? The moment I drank the remaining beer in the can in one gulp, I felt someone was nearby, and I looked in the opposite direction, Katsutoshi Katsuragi was standing at the entrance.He kept watching.When I looked back at him, he dodged his eyes for a moment, then walked in.At this moment, the people in the room noticed his arrival, and everyone began to straighten their posture. "Ah, everyone, don't move, please relax." Katsuragi Katsutoshi used gestures to dissuade everyone while looking around the room.Then he bowed and said: "For my daughter's affairs, thank you for your help. I sincerely apologize to everyone for causing so much trouble during the busiest time of work. The police also said, I will do my best to arrest the criminals, and I believe that day will come soon. However, the daughter's matter is still a private matter of the Katsuragi family. If such an incident occurs, Sunstar Motors and related businesses will definitely not be hindered by it. I also want to Please don't mind, follow the original itinerary and implement various plans. I will return to work as soon as possible. Thank you for your assistance today!"

As I returned the salute like everyone else, I was thinking about Katsuragi's sight just now, he was looking at this!No, he must be looking at me! At night, I turned on the computer and surfed the Internet, and when I saw the news bulletin, I couldn't help being shocked! "Miss Katsuragi Juri, you really were kidnapped!" title.I tapped twice on the title with shaking fingers. "Ms. Shu Juli, the eldest daughter of Nissei Motor Vice President Katsutoshi Katsuragi whose body was found a few days ago, was publicly stated by the police that she was actually kidnapped. Shortly after Miss Juli disappeared, the kidnapper contacted her immediately. For the safety of Ms. Shuli, Mr. Sheng Jun did not report to the police immediately. After paying the ransom, although the police immediately launched a search, they did not disclose the case for fear of endangering Ms. Shuli’s personal safety—”

I was stunned in front of the computer screen for a while, but Katsuragi Katsutoshi did not call the police.My elaborate plan to get the ransom and to contain the police's actions was all in vain.Why didn't Katsuragi Katsutoshi call the police?Is it for the safety of your daughter?This statement is totally unbelievable!The fact that Juli and Chiharu exchanged identities, and the fact that Juli was killed are all related.The way Katsuragi looked at me on the wake night was like being welded to my eyelids, lingering.This man knows that I am the kidnapper.Of course, I'm afraid I've heard everything from Chiharu.What exactly does this man want?The next day, reports of the kidnapping became more detailed.Deals on the CPT fan club bulletin board, ransoms taken on the capital highway, etc., started posting all the things I did.The manager of the Mukoshima dealership of Nissei Motors that I used was interviewed by various TV programs.Katsuragi Jyuri handled the case of kidnapping and tearing up tickets.It has become the hottest topic in the streets and alleys.

"Honestly, this prisoner is really powerful!" A colleague who read the report on the sports newspaper flicked his finger on the headline of the report and said, "300 million yuan! In today's world, it's really a lot of money! Just a few surreptitious mobile phone calls and perfectly possessed. This prisoner is really smart!" "No, it's good luck." The male colleague next to me replied: "If the police were dispatched, I don't know if it would be so smooth. Didn't the police say that if the police were called in advance, the situation would be different. change." "That's what the police say, of course. If they're out and the ransom is taken away under surveillance, they won't say a word! But to the police, maybe they're thinking: Oh! It’s a good thing they didn’t call the police in advance. If the police were called in advance and the ransom money was taken away under the strictest monitoring, wouldn’t the police be embarrassed? In this regard, because the matter is over, they can say that the prisoner used There is nothing embarrassing for the police to use any means to steal money. Plus, the hostage was killed, so there is no need to worry too much, and the search can be carried out directly!" "Hey, it's too loud." The two of them looked at each other and smiled. I picked up the phone next to me, looked at the number registered on the phone and called it, and then called the other party's office directly.This is the Ministry of Social Affairs, and I recognize the voice. "Hi, I'm Sakuma." "Ah, Mr. Sakuma, it's me, Yuguchi, thank you earlier." "Is there any further news about what you said before?" "The case of Katsuragi Juri." He suddenly lowered his voice and said, "It has become a big case! Wasn't the time when the body was discovered after I met Mr. Sakuma? Alas, the murder was also expected. The people in our department who are in charge of investigating this case have been tracking them all night recently!" "Is there any so-called result?" "Well... how should I put it, Katsuragi's family is very tight-lipped. Apart from what has been reported, they probably haven't got any new information. I'll ask later." "Please take care of everything. By the way, I'm sorry, I may be a little anxious. Can we meet tonight?" "Ah?! This is really urgent!" "I will see Mr. Katsuragi soon, so I hope to have some information sooner." "Understood, I'll try my best. Is it okay in the coffee shop before? I think I should be able to leave around 7 o'clock." "Okay! I'll see you at 7 o'clock." I put down the phone and looked back, wondering if the call I made now would kill me.Did you say more things you shouldn't have said?Will it be considered unnatural by others?But I also shook my head quietly myself, it's useless to only care about it now.I'm thinking about how to pass the time between 7 o'clock, there should be no work to deal with. When we arrived at the coffee shop, Tangkou was already sitting by the window and waiting.Seeing me, he raised his hand lightly. "I'm sorry you're so busy." "No, Mr. Sakuma, you should be busier." Ordering an iced coffee, I leaned forward and said, "Well, what about that?" "I asked about the information our company has before. However, I hope you don't record what I'm saying now, and we don't want to be targeted by Sunstar Motors and the police." "I know this, do you think I will make Tangkou feel bad for you?" "No, of course I believe in you, Mr. Sakuma." Tangkou took out a small notebook and said, "Let's get straight to the point. The police haven't found the suspect so far. It seems to start with Ms. Juli's relationship, but they can't find any suspicious ones." people." "Then the police think it was an acquaintance who committed the crime?" "The one who was kidnapped was not a little girl, but an adult woman. It's hard to think that it was a trick played by someone I don't know. Of course, there is also the possibility of forcible kidnapping, so it means that the prisoner should have decided on the target before starting the attack." .Anyway, it should be someone related to Ms. Juri or the Katsuragi family." "But this is the Katsuragi family, a super big company. Maybe it's just for the ransom, as long as it's the daughter of a rich family, it doesn't matter who it is?" "Of course this is also possible, but they think the possibility is relatively low." "why?" "Because of this..." Tangkou looked around and said, "The hostage has been killed! If the prisoner has nothing to do with the Katsuragi family, as long as Ms. Juli doesn't remember what the other party looks like, she will send the prisoner away after getting the ransom. Wouldn’t it be fine to just let it go? But that’s not the case, the prisoner never planned to let Miss Juli go!” I understand what he meant, judging from Juli’s body, she had been dead for at least two weeks.In other words, it means that she died not long after she disappeared. "It's really a cruel method. It's not just about money, maybe there is a deep hatred. The investigation is also going in this direction." "Hate... um..." I had mixed feelings.Indeed, I have some hatred for Katsutoshi Katsuragi, and this game was designed to dispel this hatred.But this is because this wild horse named Chiharu accidentally broke into my world, and I came up with this game.First, I didn't kill Katsuragi Juri, and I didn't even meet him. "Don't the police have any leads?" "There seem to be several. In order to pay the ransom, Katsuragi-san talked with the prisoner on the phone several times, and they seem to have tapes of that time." "A tape? Does he have a tape?" "It seems to be like this. At that time, I didn't call the police. I plan to report to the police as soon as Ms. Juli returns safely. It will help the investigation. At that time, I will try my best to collect evidence." This man can do these things, but the question of why he didn't call the police is really incomprehensible. "What other evidence is there?" "It's impossible for the police to tell us everything about this...ah, yes!" Tangkou looked at the notebook, covered his mouth with one hand and said, "Miss Shuli, it seems that there is nothing wrong with that part. !" "Which part?" "I was killed anyway, so it's useless to worry about such things! It's about chastity!" "Ah..." I couldn't utter a word. "This incident was suppressed, and it was not reported. Because it left strong evidence against the police. First, it was the male's pubic hair, and then..." Tangkou lowered his voice and said, "The man's semen. It seems to be Some residue. But it was dry when found." I found my pulse quickening and tried not to look embarrassed. "What about other evidence?" My voice was a little impetuous. "There seems to be some more, but they have not been made public. If you know anything, I will contact you immediately." "Sorry to trouble you." I took a gulp of iced coffee, then adjusted my breathing and said, "Why did you choose Yokosuka?" "Ok?" "The reason why the body was buried in Yokosuka! Why did the prisoner bury the body there? Does the police have any explanation for this? For example, the place where the prisoner hid is in Yokosuka." "I haven't heard anything about this yet. However, I have heard rumors that the police are conducting a blanket investigation in Yokosuka." "A carpet investigation?" "It's very simple. That is, take the photo of Ms. Juli and ask if anyone has seen her. The police believe that the prisoner did not come to Yokosuka to bury the body, but the murder scene was in Yokosuka. So they are looking for To the people of Ms. Juli when she was alive, someone there should have seen her, they think it is!" "Why do they think so?" "Well... I don't know." Tangkou spread his hands and shook his head. After parting with him, I went straight home, had a simple dinner, and sat down in front of the computer.But after turning on the computer, I couldn't move for a moment.So far, it seems like a scattered jigsaw puzzle, slowly pieced together in my mind.Although there are still many incomplete parts, the general outline has come out. Sweat dripped from his temples, it could be called a cold sweat.The weather was extremely hot and humid, but I had goose bumps all over my body. After completing the imaginary jigsaw puzzle, I felt an indescribable anxiety in my heart.I thought how could this be the case, broke up the jigsaw puzzle again, and then reassembled it in other ways, and reassembled it several times, but the images presented were the same.If my guess is not wrong, right? ! I sighed, and slowly began typing on the keyboard.I prayed in my heart that my speculation was wrong.But what good is prayer alone?Now I can only do what I can do. Suddenly thought of one thing, I stood up from the chair, walked to the bedroom, approached the coat hanging on the hanger, reached into the pocket, and took out the things in the pocket, maybe this would become my life-saving treasure . Go back to the front of the computer and continue the action just now. This action is to complete an electronic letter.After thinking about it for a while, I typed the following article. Mr. Katsutoshi Katsuragi: There is something extremely important!Urgent!Kindly get in touch.I think you also know the content of this matter, you don't need to ask for the contact method, and you also know the exact identity here, so there is no need to report your name.You can also call directly.But please don't let the investigating authorities take notice.If it is exposed, neither party will benefit, which you also understand. The complicated situation here, I hope to have a satisfactory solution through transactions.If there is no contact within a day or two, I will appear directly in front of you.Enter the person who takes care of Katsuragi Chiharu. Although this can't be said to be a good article, there is no way to chew on the words on the article.I read it several times, and then sent it to the same e-mail address that I had sent several times in the past.The heartbeat was fast all the time. The next morning, I couldn't calm down.I don’t know when a call will come in. When I go to the bathroom, I take a wireless phone with me. I also pay attention to the sound of the phone when I go to work. Mailbox, and even the website of the CPT Fan Club from time to time to have a look. But Katsuragi Katsutoshi did not have any contact.I even thought so, maybe Katsuragi Katsutoshi didn't realize my true identity.But no matter how you think about it, it doesn't make sense.
