After a whole week, Mifuyu came to Masaya's residence again, saying that she came directly from Tokyo Station, wearing a black coat over a dark blue suit.She had never worn it like this when she came here before. Mifuyu took off her coat and sat on the cushion. "I heard a lot of suspicious information." "what's the message?" "Yaya, do you still remember a man named Daxi? He used to live near your house." "Onishi? Ah, I remember. His house is big, and he seems to have served as the president of the town. I've never spoken to that family."

"I asked Mr. Onishi, and he said that at the end of last year, a man asked if there were any photos or video recordings of the damage in the vicinity, and it would be best to see the damage to the factories in the street." "Just street factories?" "Well. That person is a member of a trading company responsible for selling industrial machinery. He wants to investigate the damage to the machinery caused by the earthquake for future reference. Apart from your house, there seem to be many street factories in that area." "Oh...but that sounds all right."

All companies and research institutions are analyzing the damage caused by the Great Hanshin-Awaji Earthquake, and there is no abnormality in the damage data collected by trading companies dealing in industrial machinery. "Then a problem arose. That person went to Mr. Onishi again after the New Year, and this time, unlike the last time, he asked straightforwardly and thoroughly about the situation of the Suwon Factory." "About my family? What did you ask specifically?" "Ask about your family's financial situation, the operation of the factory, and your father's situation."

"My father?" "I asked if he committed suicide just to get the insurance money..." Meidong only lowered her head slightly at this moment. "Ridiculous!" Ya also turned her face away, "My family is struggling financially and my father committed suicide because of it. You don't need to ask around to know." Meifuyu blinked slowly, the trembling of eyelashes was clearly visible. "After hearing about this incident, I suddenly understood: he was the one who sent the threatening letter." "Explain to me quickly." "In the beginning, it was estimated that, as the person said, he was collecting information for work. When he saw the collected photos or videotapes, he may have discovered that scene."

"The scene where I... did that?" The scene of killing his uncle - he couldn't say that anyway. Meifu nodded. "Almost every household has video cameras now. It wouldn't be surprising if one or two people recorded what was going on around them." Ya shook her head too.He also has a camera at his house, but in that situation, it was impossible to think of filming. "I think that the moment the video tape was discovered, that person's purpose changed. Normally, he would report the crime, but he didn't do that. Instead, he decided to investigate who was on the video first. It is estimated that he will soon It was found out that it was the son of the boss of the Suwon Factory, and then the person who died at that time was investigated. There were two people who died in the Suwon Factory—your father and Toshiro Yonekura. Your father committed suicide, so don’t worry about it. Toshiro Yonekura died from a head injury, so it can be concluded that it was the one who was killed."

"So send me threatening letters..." Before Yaya could finish speaking, Meidong shook her head. "I think that person investigated the rice warehouse before, so he will naturally go to his daughter." "Zuo Guizi?" Ya also clenched her lips.He gradually understood. "I guess that person asked about the relationship between Yonekura and Masaya casually. How would Satakako answer?" "I will definitely talk about borrowing money. She suspects that I killed her father by taking advantage of the earthquake. She can say these words." "Thus, the two got all the puzzles: the motive for the murder, the evidence, and knowing that you have your father's life insurance money in your hands. After all these were assembled, he made up his mind to send the threatening letter."

"Oh," Ya also sighed, "So you asked me to pay 10 million, deducting the loan, and the insurance money should be able to leave this much. I guess this is what Zuo Guizi told him." "All that's left is to find out Yaya's address. It's not difficult. There are records in the insurance company your father bought, and the contact information here is also left when sorting out the bank's debts. I think it can be found in any way. to here." Ya also crooked his face.Mifuyu's words are reasonable and reasonable, without any contradiction. "Do you know the man's name?"

"Mr. Onishi didn't remember clearly, and he even forgot the name of the company. If you ask around again, maybe someone knows, but I'm worried that if you act too much, you will be suspected." "Well. It's already very powerful to be able to find out this step." "Just a little tired." Meidong smiled bitterly. Ya also hugged her head.He understood why the intimidator suddenly appeared, but he didn't know what to do in the future. Mifutsu, who was originally sitting upright, stretched her legs casually and took off her shirt.The two buttons of the blue shirt were undone.When she brushed her hair up, she swayed, Ya also saw the edge of the bra.

"Ya Ye, you must never ignore that person, it will kill you." "But I don't even know who the other party is, and there's nothing I can do about it." "Although he doesn't know his identity, he will definitely take the initiative to approach you. It will be too late to hesitate at that time, and we must make up our minds now." "Determined?" "I've already decided." Mifuyu stared straight into Masaya's eyes.It is a pair of eyes that can see through the hearts of others.Ya also didn't want her to see through her inner wavering, so she avoided her gaze.
