"Besides me, there is another person. When you first met Yazaki Shizuna, there was a man named Kasugai next to you. Kasugai from CortesiaJapan. He also came to visit as a policeman. Don't be surprised. The process follows the previous I told you." "I see. The name of that... the policeman is..." "His name is Kusanagi, Kusanagi from SMAP. My name is Kaga, Kaga from Kaga Mariko. I have done my best to disguise my identity." "Understood. See you in ten minutes then." He hung up the phone. "The police called?" Zheng Xing asked hurriedly.

"Well, I'm coming here now. I have something important to talk about about the past few days." "About the DNA?" "I think so. More details to come." "That's it..." Zhengxing began to put away the newspaper thoughtfully. Exactly ten minutes later, the doorbell rang. "I'm Kusanagi from the Kanagawa Prefectural Police Station. I'm very sorry for the sudden visit." Standing in the lobby of the entrance, Taisuke said while handing over his business card. "Will the conversation last long?" Xing Cheng asked. "It depends on the specifics of the discussion. In short, can I meet Mr. Togami Masahyuki first?"

"Understood, this way please." Under Xingcheng's guidance, Koichi and Taifu walked through the long corridor, "You deserve it." He thought.He didn't show any flaws in front of Zhengxing, even when he saw Taifu, Xingcheng's expression didn't change at all.His determination to carry out the plan flawlessly is evident. Togami Masahyuki sat on the sofa and waited.He was wearing a tan woolen jacket. After saying hello, Koichi and Taifu sat down opposite Zhengxing.Xing Cheng sat beside Zheng Xing. "I think you have heard from your son that we are searching for the murder of robbers that happened in Yokosuka fourteen years ago. Now we have some clues, and we are in charge of searching for the remains left by the suspected criminal. Now we are using DNA to identify Searching for the center. Speaking of which, we found finger oil on the handle and identified the DNA in it. This was technology that wasn't available fourteen years ago."

Tai Fu's tone was as calm and natural as usual.Gong Yi thought to himself, this won't arouse his suspicion. "Indeed. Regarding DNA, I have also done some investigations." Zheng Xing said. "Originally, we had to get my consent, but last time the son signed the letter of commitment. Thanks to him, the appraisal work went quite smoothly." Taifu turned to Xingcheng, bowed his head slightly, "Thank you very much." "So, the appraisal result came out?" Zhengxing looked at Taifu seriously. Kouichi sensed that he was anxious.After learning about the DNA test from Xing Cheng, this man must have had trouble sleeping every day.Can't wait for the result now.

The plan would go well, he was sure. "It came out." Taifu looked at Zhengxing and said, "From the conclusion, the DNA coincidence rate is 99.9%. According to the judgment, the two are almost identical." Xing Cheng immediately stood up. "How could this be. There must be something wrong!" "In order to avoid mistakes, we carefully identified it. The result is as shown in the document, please see." Taifu said in a calm tone. "Who wants to read such absurd documents!" Xingcheng looked down at his father, "Dad, call him Mr. Zhongyuan. How could such a thing happen!"

The man named Zhong Yuan was a lawyer they knew.Gong Yi had already known this from Xing Chengna in advance. "Well, wait a minute, calm down." Zheng Xing said, and then he lowered his head as if thinking about something. It's done once you look forward to it.So, the two met eyes.Xingcheng's expression seemed to say: "It's hard to tell if my father is a criminal or not." "Mr. Togami. Mr. Togami Masahyuki," Taisuke called out, "because of this, it is scientifically proven that you touched the handle of that remnant. Now, because it is necessary to find out when and where you touched it Yes. We came to visit your residence."

"Please wait a moment. There are traces of touching on the handle, so we can't tell that it belongs to my father." Xingcheng said aggressively, "Maybe I made a mistake and touched someone else's stuff. Maybe it's just the opposite. Someone stole something my dad used. There is no evidence that my dad is the culprit." "Of course, it's still impossible to say that he is the criminal. It just proves that he has touched this fact." Taifu said lightly. Xing Cheng looked at Zheng Xing. "Indeed, at that time, Dad, you cherished it a lot. It was light and comfortable to hold. Didn't you say it was stolen? The guy who stole it might be the culprit."

"Stolen? What is it?" Taifu asked Zheng Xing. "No, that has nothing to do with it." Zheng Xing shook his head. "Just in case, please tell me. What is it?" "Tell them, Dad." "You shut up. That umbrella has nothing to do with it. You make me think about it." The moment he heard this sentence, Gong Yi saw that Xing Cheng's face was completely drained of blood, and he hung his head weakly. On the contrary, Gong Yi felt his blood boil and his body temperature suddenly rose.Looking around, Taifu's face also flushed red. "Father," Xingcheng said with his head down, "Why do you know it's an umbrella?"

Zheng Xing looked at his son in surprise: "What do you mean?" Xingcheng raised his head.His cheeks were pale, and there was a flush around his eyes. "No one said the remnant was an umbrella. So, how did you know about it?" Zheng Xing immediately understood what he was accusing.However, as if he suddenly remembered something, he looked at Gong Yi and the others. "Come on! Mr. Togami." Gongyi said, "We all heard clearly. Even your son can testify. You have nowhere to escape!" Zheng Xing looked at Xing Cheng: "What's going on? "No, hey. The two of them are not policemen, but the sons of the murdered Ariake couple."

"Ariake..." Zheng Xing's face was slightly deformed. "Although I really want to ask you why you did this, but you can ask this at any time. Anyway, now, I just want to say something to you, Dad. Go and surrender yourself! After surrendering, make a good atonement." Xingcheng squeezed out these few words. "Mr. Togami," Koichi said, "we have reached a deal. If you prove that you are a criminal, your son will persuade you to surrender. In this case, we will not tell the police what happened today. Surrender is out of your own will. In this way If so, the sentence will be more or less light.”

"Give up." Taking off his glasses, Tai Fu said, "I saw you! It was the night of the crime. I have never forgotten it in fourteen years." Zheng Xing frowned, his lips were pursed into a slit, and sweat trickled down from his temples. "Dad!" Xingcheng shouted, "Please. At least don't look so indifferent." Zhengxing "huh—" heaved a long sigh.He turned to them. "Is that so, their son?" However, Zheng Xing still did not nod, he turned his head to his son. "The policemen who came last time... are from the Kanagawa Prefectural Police Station. They are indeed Hagimura and Kashiwahara. Have you got your business card?" "It seems there is." Xingcheng stood up and opened the drawer of the TV cabinet beside him.He took out his business card and put it in front of Zheng Xing, "This." Zheng Xing picked up this card and compared it with the business card that Gong Yi and the others handed over when they greeted each other. "You can confuse the fake with the real one, and make it look like the real one." He said with a faint smile. A masochistic smile before dying?Think about it. Masayoshi picked up the phone, looked at Hagi Village's business card, and started calling. "Hello...is this Mr. Hagimura? I'm sorry to bother you in your busy schedule. I'm Togami Masashiyuki Togami." He continued calmly, "Is it convenient now?... Well, in fact, I I have something important to say, can you come to my house right now?" Gong Yi was taken aback.Unexpectedly, in this case, he would call Hagi Village. "Let's talk about the details after we meet....Well, let's talk slowly later....Well, please." After hanging up the phone, Zheng Xing said to Gongyi, "I'll be there within an hour." "If you intend to surrender, we will leave first." "No, it's better that you are also listening. Besides, I have no reason to surrender myself." "Huh?" Gong Yi felt that the shape of his mouth had deformed, "What are you talking about now?" "dad……" "Well, listen to me." After Zhengxing stopped his son, he looked at Koichi and Taifu again, "Although it is natural for you to doubt me, this is the only point I want to clarify. I am not the one who killed your parents." "What did you say?" "Stop joking!" Taifu stood up, "Didn't you hear clearly just now? I said I saw you with my own eyes! Don't pretend to be stupid!" Seeing that Tai Fu was about to pounce on him almost immediately.Koichi stretched out his right hand and pressed Taifu's body. "What's going on?" He asked the administration. "The person you witnessed was indeed me." Zheng Xing looked up at Taifu, "I went to your house that night. I was in 'Ariake'. I admit this." "But, didn't you kill someone?" Gong Yi asked. "There was no murder. I was not the culprit." Zheng Xing said in a low voice, "When I arrived, the incident had already happened. Your parents had already been killed." "How dare you tell such a lie..." Gong Yi squeezed out these words through gritted teeth, glaring at Zheng Xing angrily. "It's not a lie. If you calm down now, I can tell the truth about all this immediately. If not, I can only wait for the Hagi village police to come." Koichi and Taisu met eyes.My brother's breathing is disturbed.He pressed his shoulders and made him sit down again. "Okay, let's listen to it for now." Gong said to Zheng Xing. If Hagi Village and the others arrived, let alone Taifu himself, the situation would be quite bad.However, they couldn't just walk away with nothing.I can only resign myself to fate and prepare for the worst. "It's done." Zheng Xing shouted. "Go to my room, open the bottom drawer of the desk, and bring the notebook with a black cover. Don't look inside yet." "The one with the black cover... Got it." Xingcheng walked out of the room. Zhengxing looked back and forth between Koichi and Taifu again. "How did you know about me?" "The police." Gong Yi replied, "They asked me if I knew the store 'Hushenting'. Although I didn't tell you the details, I realized that it must be related to the case, so I went to the store with my younger brother. The main store in Kannai. Then, I saw you." "I see. But it's very strange. I hardly appear in the lobby of the store." Zheng Xing looked thoughtful, "I still want to know about the relationship between you and Xingcheng, well, we can talk about this later. Eight out of ten Ninth, it must be Miss Gao who went through the needle." Even Shizuna was suspicious of this person.Seeing Gong Yi and the others being silent, Zheng Xing nodded knowingly. "Have you tried our restaurant's food?" "I've eaten rice with diced beef." Gong Yi said, "the original flavor, that's the taste of my father." Zheng Xing nodded with a soothing face. "Your father was a great chef. A genius with bold and unique ideas and the ability to cook all kinds of flavors with great delicacy. It's a pity that he cared too much about things other than cooking. If he wasn't so obsessed with Gambling, it is definitely not 'Togami-tei' that is popular now, but 'Ariake'." "What's the meaning?" When Gong Yi asked, Xing Cheng came back with an extra notebook in his hand.
