Chapter 18 Section 5

The police car in which I, Miyashita-senpai, and the section chief were riding headed towards the factory.The two criminal policemen in the front row rarely talked to us, and the atmosphere was a little depressing, and I couldn't help feeling uneasy. After arriving at the factory, we walked towards the workshop where the robots were placed.Senior Miyashita and I exchanged a sympathetic look. "This is the end of the game", these five words are clearly written on the senior's face, and I probably have the same expression. "Can you please start this robot? We want to see how the robotic arm works."

Said the older detective.His hair was about half an inch long, mixed with white hair, and his aura was very intimidating. "But, it's not working time..." The head teacher replied timidly. "This is not a problem, we have obtained your company's permission." The detective took out an envelope from his suit pocket and handed it to the section chief.The section chief took out the documents inside, and I peeked from the side, and saw that it was a document that allowed the machine to be activated to assist the police in the investigation. "You seem to have finally agreed."

The criminal policeman sneered slightly, then put away his smile quickly, and asked seriously: "Mr. Mr. Section Chief said just now that you are not allowed to start the mechanical equipment without authorization during non-working hours?" "This is the rule." "We also understand this, but we still hope that you can tell the truth. Is Mr. Lin Tian a person who will break this rule? That is to say, will he start the robot after clocking out of get off work?" "He's not that kind of person," said the head teacher. "He will." "I think so."

Miyashita-senpai and I answered. "Ok?" The criminal policeman glanced back and forth between the three of us, and finally fixed his eyes on the section chief, "What do you think?" "He does...could do that." The section chief said helplessly, "I've always reminded him to obey the rules. But, how should I put it, he's a workaholic—" "You don't have to bother to explain." The criminal policeman smiled wryly, and raised his hand to cut off the section chief: "I am not the manager of your company, I just want to understand the situation: If the mechanical equipment is turned on during non-working hours and causes an accident, how will Mr. Lin Tian deal with it? "

The police have seen through the truth of the robot's accident, I thought. "Well, well, of course he will report to his superiors..." The teacher spoke incoherently. "Mr. Principal!" The criminal policeman was surprised: "I'm not here to hold you accountable, so there's no need to panic like this!" The head of the class still hesitated for a while, before finally making up his mind and said: "I think he will find a way to hide it." The policeman nodded approvingly. "Now can you show us how this robot works?" Senior Miyashita agreed, and stepped forward to operate.The robot's arm turns freely and flexibly.

"It's amazing!" The detective opened his eyes wide: "It's better than my arm." "This robot is manufactured according to the ASY system. It is a technology independently developed by our department. It has strong anti-noise ability, and it has also applied for a patent—" The section chief introduced smoothly, and the promotional words rolled out of his mouth, like a conditioned reflex. "Okay, that's it." Interpol said.Miyashita-senpai stopped the robot's movements. "that……" The section chief scratched his increasingly thinning hair, and said hesitantly: "Mr. Criminal Police, you want to say that Lin Tian-kun died of a work-related injury? But he was indeed found in the lounge, and you must be aware of this..."

"We know. That's why I asked the three of you about Mr. Lintian's possible reaction after the accident. Everyone just now admitted that he would conceal it. In fact, Mr. Lintian did. As soon as he realized that he had been hurt Injured at work, he immediately struggled to leave the accident scene, walked to the lounge with difficulty, and finally fell there. He was afraid that other people would happen to enter the lounge and find his miserable state, so he locked the door behind him. " So, I suddenly realized, and I slapped my hands involuntarily. "The security guard probably greeted Mr. Lin Tian at that time, no wonder he ignored him."

"That's about it." The detective nodded. "But, since he can still walk from the workshop to the lounge, how could he just die like this?" asked the teacher in puzzlement.The young police officer said: "Mr. Hayashita's head was hit by a heavy object, resulting in a concussion, and he passed out. Although he temporarily regained consciousness, he died unfortunately due to serious intracranial hemorrhage." "So even if everyone is joking around, you can't slap each other on the head hard." The old police officer with a cropped head said kindly: "To be honest, when you went to mourn Mr. Lintian, we had already checked this robot, and found that the top of the mechanical arm was stained with blood. Although it has been wiped badly It left traces, but it still showed its original shape in the luminol test. The key question is who wiped off the blood stains."

"Then it must be Mr. Lin Tian." The criminal policeman shook his head in denial, and took out a piece of gauze specially used for cleaning mechanical products from his pocket.The gauze is carefully wrapped in a plastic bag. "There was blood on the gauze, and it should have been discarded in the trash after wiping the robotic arm." "Then, that's what Mr. Lin Tian threw." "No no no." The criminal policeman shook his head again and again: "The trash bin for waste gauze had already been dumped once on Monday morning. But this piece of gauze was found at noon on Monday. At that time, Mr. Lin Tian had passed away."

The head teacher was silent, and we also kept silent. The criminal policeman's eyes suddenly became serious: "Among the relevant personnel, the only ones who have the conditions to wipe the mechanical arm yesterday are you three. Hurry up and tell the truth!" "Sorry!" The head of the class next to me suddenly seemed to be a lot shorter, and his knees softened and he sat on the floor. "I did it. As soon as I heard that Mr. Lin Tian was injured and died from a head injury, I immediately thought that it might be caused by a robot out of control. I rushed to have a look, and there were bloodstains on the mechanical arm... If it is discovered, I will bear the responsibility." It's not a small responsibility, so... I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!"

The head of the class started to cry as he talked, and he no longer had the majestic and domineering appearance of the past. "It's okay, please raise your head." The criminal policeman put his hand on the shoulder of the head of the section, "Please rest assured, I don't think you should take any responsibility." "what?" The section chief's face was covered with tears and dust, and he looked up at the criminal policeman in confusion. "Actually, there is another mystery. That is, the shape of the blood stained on the top of the mechanical arm does not match the wound on Mr. Hayashida's head. Judging from the operation of the robot just now, there is no abnormality in the top part of the mechanical arm." "Ah, then Hayashida-san's injury..." "It was not caused by being hit by a robot." The detective said with a slight sneer.
