Chapter 33 Section VII

Information about Sano continued to gather.However, there was not even a piece of information that would satisfy Tamiya.The people involved have the same impression of Sano in terms of timidity and strong sense of responsibility.In addition, it is said that he neither drank alcohol nor gambled during his lifetime.Tamiya also left such an impression on himself when he recalled the first time he saw Sano. "Apart from the relationship between the superior and the subordinate, there is no connection between him and Anbu. So the commonality between the two is that they work in the same department."

The investigator in charge of investigating the matter reported with a tired face. Could it be just a simple accident?And it overlaps with Abe's death from falling from a building, and is it just a coincidence? ——Such doubts began to appear around.However, there is still no reasonable explanation for the sleeping pill incident. "According to Sano's wife, Sano never took sleeping pills before. He was cautious in his work. It is said that he didn't even drink sweet liquor before driving." One of the investigators said confidently. But things are not without progress.Investigators investigating the alibi of the staff in the department confirmed the alibi of everyone when Abe fell from the building.As a result, Yukiko Nakamachi was the only person who might have witnessed Abe's fall from the building at that time.

Of course, this kind of thing is not conclusive evidence.The murderer may not necessarily be Anbu's subordinates.However, judging from the common ground between Anbe and Sano, her existence cannot be ignored. "Yukiko Nakamachi—it's really interesting." Tamiya touched his chin. When Abe fell to his death, the police also launched a certain degree of investigation on Yukiko Nakamachi.Judging from the report, it can be found that the ordinary young female employee is actually quite hardworking. Four years ago, after graduating from a local short-term university, she joined the company where she works, and the company assigned her to the material department.

So far, everything has been smooth sailing. The initial misfortune occurred a year later when Yukiko's mother died.Because she lost her father since she was a child, she became alone without siblings. The reason why she was able to survive this period of difficulty is roughly attributed to a colleague named Yoichi Nakamachi who was working in the same department as her at the time.No matter what happened, Yoichi tried his best to help her.She is usually reticent, but she also becomes active in front of Yoichi, and she often smiles.In the fall of her twenty-third year, that is, last year, the two married.

The six months that followed were the happiest in her life.Nishioka and others heard that after getting married, Yukiko felt as if she had changed, and she looked radiant. However, as I said just now, the happy time only lasted for a short half a year.In May of this year, Yoichi died in a traffic accident.While driving on a rainy day, he failed to turn the steering wheel enough in time and crashed into a utility pole. This blow made her unable to regain her strength.She hadn't come to work for two weeks.The company arranged another position for her, which is now the material department of the purchasing department.

"Is there anything suspicious about the accidental death of her husband?" After reading the report, Tamiya raised his head and asked Nishioka beside him. "It's been confirmed before, but it doesn't seem suspicious. Unfortunately, no autopsy was performed on the body at that time." "Is there any connection between this matter and Anbe and Sano?" "I have also investigated this in detail, and it should be said that there is no connection." "Oh, can't you find anything?" Tamiya cut his hands back behind his head, and stretched greatly.

"Also, we later learned that she had had a miscarriage before." "What? Miscarriage?" The posture of stretching was frozen in mid-air, Tamiya asked aloud. "Yes, miscarriage." Nishioka repeated, "Last month, Yukiko Nakamachi had a miscarriage." "Tell me." Tamiya sat back on the chair. According to Nishioka's investigation, at the beginning of last month, Yukiko Nakamachi took ten days off.Plus Saturday and Sunday, a total of two weeks of rest.Judging from the leave slip, she suddenly felt stomach pain in the middle of the night, and was taken to the hospital by ambulance.

"Did you have a miscarriage after that?" "Yes." Nishioka said calmly, "the attending doctor said that it was her late husband's posthumous son, and it was her only hope of survival. For a few days, she had been in a sensitive state , can't be cured at all." "Fortunately, she can survive." "After hearing about it for seven or eight days, she gradually calmed down." "The people in their company should also know about her pregnancy and miscarriage, right?" "Of course I know. After she was discharged from the hospital, all the company asked her to do were relatively easy jobs."

Tamiya hummed and pouted his lower lip. "Is there any connection between this matter and the case?" "As far as it is concerned, no interrelated elements have been found. After losing her child, she was very desperate, but this matter has nothing to do with Abe and Sano." "Ok." Tamiya stood up and looked out the window.Yukiko Nakamachi's troubled face appeared in front of her eyes.Her husband passed away, and her child was stillborn. How much grief was hidden in her heart?
