Chapter 14 Section VII

Nakanishi Yukio pleaded not guilty to the crime.Not only the crime, he even denied the affair with Ogiwara Reiko.The investigators couldn't find any decent evidence for a while, and their anxiety was beyond words. "It's puzzling." Takama said, putting out his cigarette in the ashtray. "There was an affair between Nakanishi and Reiko. This is a fact, absolutely unmistakable. And there is no doubt that Nakanishi sneaked into Ogiwara's house on the night of the incident." After hearing the testimony of Mitsuo Mitsukawa, a repeat student, Takama and Hino made three lists of people related to the Ogiwara family and those who drove the white luxury car.After that, select those who can move freely at night, that is, live alone or in a similar situation, and then find out people who have more opportunities to meet Reiko Ogiwara.

It didn't take much time for them to target Nakanishi Yukio, he is Ogiwara Keizo's confidant, there are naturally many opportunities to go in and out of Ogiwara's house, and he also has the opportunity to meet and get acquainted with Reiko.In addition, his favorite car is a white crown. When the police showed the photo of that car to Mitsuo Mitsukawa for identification, although he was not very sure, he only said "it feels like this kind of car", but at least it was a testimony.In addition, on the night of the incident, when Qisan was on a business trip, Zhongxi's alibi was extremely vague.

Right now, there is only a lack of evidence that can be settled in one fell swoop. "It's okay, sooner or later, he will definitely be able to catch his fox tail." Hino, sitting next to him, held a water glass in his hand and said firmly. "It does feel solid. But that's not what puzzles me." Takama took out a bent cigarette from the cigarette case, "I really can't understand Ogiwara Reiko's psychology." "Reiko's psychology..." "Well. Since she knew that Nakanishi had sneaked into the house that night, she should immediately understand that the baby was murdered, and then take some action. At least, after learning about the current situation, she should also confess to us and let Nakanishi Accept the punishment of the law. But she didn't do anything. No, not only that, she even hid. Could it be that in order to conceal the fact of her affair, she can even ignore the revenge of killing her son?"

"It's really confusing." "I'm not wrong, am I? This matter is quite puzzling." Takama exhaled hurriedly. That evening, Ogihara Reiko finally showed up at the police station.She disappeared suddenly before, and the search personnel were in a hurry. Hearing the news, Gao Jian jumped up excitedly. "It seems that she is finally willing to tell the truth." Takama rushed to the reception room in high spirits. Reiko's face was tired, and she staggered like a sleepwalker.With a plain face, the skin on the face also looks loose. Gao Ma first asked where she had been before.Reiko replied that she went to live in a female friend's apartment for a few days.

"I thought about it for a while." "What are you thinking..." "I wonder who the murderer is." Takama looked at Reiko's face.Although there was no trace of anger on her face, her eyes were fixed on something. "Mrs. Ogiwara, we want you to tell us the truth. The case will be resolved immediately. The person who sneaked into the house that night was Yukio Nakanishi, right?" Takama stared at the corner of Reiko's mouth.Reiko's lips trembled slightly, and she replied, "Yes..." Takama sighed heavily.Just when he stood up and was about to contact, Reiko said.

"It is true that Nakanishi has been to the house, but he is not the murderer." Takama stopped and grabbed her shoulders. "What did you say?" Reiko continued with an emotionless voice. "That night, Nakanishi did come. After I found out that he had come, I quietly left the bed in order not to wake my husband up, and told him that my husband was back and asked him to go back. I watched him jump over the fence and die. Why, he never touched a finger of the child."
