Chapter 10 10

Two nights later, Fumiko went to Akiko's house.Just the two of them drinking together. "I'm really sorry that I caused so much trouble because I said something wrong." Fumiko said holding her wine glass. "Okay, don't feel guilty. Who told my family not to see clearly, and it also caused your husband to die." Qiuzi said.Then the two looked at each other, and couldn't help but burst out laughing for a while. "Ah, that's weird. In fact, such a plot is already old-fashioned." Fumiko choked on the wine and said with a smile. "As much as I hate it, it's exciting."

"It's not something exciting, but it's really commendable." As she said that, Fumiko remembered what happened many days ago. The cause of this incident was that Akiko found out that her husband had discovered that she had an affair, so she was anxious to discuss it with Fumiko.Of course that man was not Satoshi Abe, but a man she met when she was an OL. Qiuzi's trouble is that Gongyi may divorce her because of her affair.In fact, at the beginning, Qiuzi and that man just wanted to have fun, and didn't want to divorce her husband.If they divorce, then Qiuzi will get nothing.

"It would be nice if he died." He does not mean that. "I want him dead too." Fumiko is talking about her husband Abe Satoshio.He is so old, but his income has not increased, and he cannot realize the kind of life he hoped for at the beginning.Recently, she sold the stock she bought without telling her husband, but she didn't expect the stock price to plummet. Although Satoshi hasn't noticed it yet, the bank deposits are almost exhausted, and she owes a huge amount of foreign debt.Every time I was thinking about remedial measures, I always wondered whether Sachio might encounter some accident and die unexpectedly.Because Sachio had participated in a high life insurance, and she also felt that Sachio did not have the charm of a man.Maybe it's because of the big age difference between the two of them. They feel breathless when they are together, and because they don't have children, she looks forward to the life of a free and romantic single woman more and more.

At first they were only talking half-jokingly, but gradually they all realized the truth, and seriously discussed about killing their husband.The result of the two people's final discussion was that Manabe was designed to kill Abe Satomo first, and then kill himself by mistake, so that even if the police pursued him, he could escape. First of all, Fumiko told Sachio that their husband and wife were traveling to Izu, and when Sachio agreed, he asked him to book a hotel.Then Qiuzi asked Gongyi to agree to travel with Fumiko and his wife.After Gongyi agreed, Qiuzi booked the couple's hotel.Two days before departure, Fumiko told Sachio the news that Manabe and his wife were also going together.On the morning of the day of departure, Fumiko suddenly said that her natal family had an urgent matter and asked her husband Sachio to drive first.Because Sachio didn't want to have too much contact with Fumiko's natal family, he drove to Izu first, just as his wife hoped.The night before, Fumiko quietly put the golf clubs in the trunk of the car.After sending Sachio away, Chimiko immediately left home and rented a car to rush to Izu.

On the other hand, Akiko stopped the car in front of the restaurant named "OWAITO", and told Gongichi, "Fumiko and the others will meet us at this restaurant. I will go to the hotel to check in and come over. Please drink a cup of coffee here and wait for them." Gongyi was a little strange at the time, and asked why they gathered in this store, but Qiuzi found a reason and gave it away.In front of the hotel, Akiko meets Fumiko.Then, after Akiko went to the front desk to register for the accommodation, the two went to Sachio's room.Seeing Fumiko coming so soon, Sachio was a little surprised, but didn't think too much about it.

The potassium cyanide was obtained by Qiuzi from Gongyi's brother's factory in advance.Sachio died immediately after drinking beer mixed with potassium cyanide.Unbelievably, Fumiko and Akiko didn't feel any fear when doing these things.After moving Sachio to the bed and making him fall asleep, Fumiko left the hotel and drove home.Akiko made a phone call to "OWAITO" and asked the waiter to call Koichi, saying that Fumiko and the others had already arrived at the hotel, and that he could just come to room 212—that is, Satomo Abe's room—just. After a while, after Gongyi came in, Qiuzi asked him to drink some beer first, and then there was the scene where Qiuzi called the service desk for help.

"The most exciting part of the whole plan is the scene where Sachio and Akiko are dating." Fumiko said with a chuckle.Now she is intoxicated by her own idea. It was actually Fumiko herself who entered the love hotel with Sachio that Wednesday night.She rented a wig with a hairstyle similar to Akiko's, and went to Kichijoji to meet Sachio wearing sunglasses, and told him that it would be fun even for a couple to come to a place like a love hotel occasionally, so Sachio easily agreed.Originally, he was also a man who liked to do this. When Fumiko went to Manabe Koichi's company, she didn't actually want to tell him about the affair, she just said that she was doing business near the company and came to chat.

"Lucky too." Qiuzi said: "Gongyi seemed to be in a bad mood that day. So when the police went to investigate later, they really thought it was because you talked about the affair." "Maybe the Bodhisattva is protecting us." "It's because of our normal conduct." The two laughed and laughed again. Soon the men from the Detective Club arrived. Hearing the doorbell ring, Qiuzi went to open the door, and saw a man and a woman standing outside the door.Qiuzi asked them what they wanted, and the man said, "I have something for you." "what?"

"this." With that said, the detective took out some photos.Qiuzi who took the photo couldn't help but widen her eyes.There's the scene of myself secretly dating a man. "What... what's going on here?" "This is what your husband asked us to investigate." It was the woman who said this.A low, steady yet loud sound. "my husband?" "Yes. Mr. Manabe commissioned us to investigate Madam's whereabouts three weeks ago." "Really? My husband...sorry, he's gone, so none of this matters." With that said, Qiuzi was about to tear up the photo.At this time, the female detective said, "He already knows everything."

Qiuzi's hand stopped suddenly: "Understood...?" "understood." The female detective repeated it again. "I went to Mr. Manabe's company once shortly after he entrusted us and reported the results of the investigation. He saw the photos at that time." "When did that happen?" Fumiko, who couldn't make herself wait any longer, interjected, she felt her heart beating extremely fast. The female detective said, "It was that Friday. According to the police, you also went to Mr. Manabe's company that day." "what……" Fumiko was completely taken aback.The detective met with Gongyi before him, and after he got the report that Qiuzi really had an affair——

"If you tell the police about this, then the situation will change a hundred and eighty degrees." The detective's smile is creepy. "What is the purpose?" Qiuzi stared at the other party and asked, but the detective's expression remained unchanged: "There is no purpose. On the contrary, if the truth is made public, we will suffer great damage and become clowns cleverly used by crimes, which will lower our Then again, it is precisely because of this that we cannot allow anyone to use the Detective Club to commit crimes. We only realized it after paying a huge price, so we want to expose your conspiracy." "But you have no evidence." Fumiko said, "What are you going to prove?" After hearing this, the detective looked at her sadly and shook his head slowly. "You don't know anything. If we're serious, we'll understand the general things. For example, how did you get to Izu? Probably by renting a car? Because we imagined it." "..." "This is just one example. Depending on the circumstances we can find evidence." "That kind of thing is not universal." "Ah, so what? If you disguise it skillfully, you can deceive the world and make everyone believe it. Isn't that what you guys did this time?" "Wait a moment." Qiuzi cast her eyes full of dependence on the detective: "Is it for money? In that case, can you still think of something?" But the detective shook his head: "This incident also has our own problems. The membership standard of the detective club has been lowered too low, so we are involved in this kind of incident." The detective turned away, and the assistant turned away too. "goodbye." After speaking, the two disappeared into the darkness. (Finish)
