Chapter 12 mysterious line

Kushiyama Nobuji originally planned to stay with his wife in Musashi Onsen for two days, but the next day, he stayed at Musashi Onsen. Fukuoka was delayed in meeting with former seniors and colleagues, and ended up staying at a hotel near Nishi Park in the city.When the case-handling personnel of the court and the prosecutor's office came here on business trips, the local business departments arranged them here, so the business travelers thought it was a designated hotel. I am going to Tamana City, Kumamoto Prefecture in the morning, so I called the hotel before 10 o'clock and asked for a taxi.

The driver sent by the taxi company that had a contract with the hotel was a young man in his 30s with dark skin and thick eyebrows.The driver swiftly packed the hand luggage of the Sangshan couple into the rear trunk. The driver listened to Kuoyama while he was talking to his wife, and while the car was waiting for the signal at the Tenjinha intersection, he spoke: "Sir, are you from Tokyo?... In Tokyo, Kusakata Tsuruko is very famous, right?" "Yes, you are famous." The wife answered for her husband with a smile. "Really? It really deserves its reputation!" The driver nodded, "Yesterday and the day before yesterday, Caoxiang Tianhezi held a solo concert in our theater for two days, and the venue was full. I went to Miss Caoxiang's backstage and stood in front of her. I saw her make up with my own eyes. She was very beautiful without makeup, and she was even more beautiful with makeup on. I was stunned."

The driver bragged to the passengers about going to the backstage to see Cao Xiangtian Hezi, and his wife followed suit and flattered: "Really? That's not bad, are you a fan of Cao Xiang?" "Yeah, last night I didn't even ask for a ticket to the scene of the fire. My wife and sister-in-law went to see it." "Do you know Caoxiang's manager?" "It's not the manager. The one who does Cao Xiang's hair is my friend. Oh, ma'am, do you know a hair stylist named Sandov?" When the green light came on, the driver hurriedly started the car, waiting for the passenger's answer while driving.

Sangshan's wife glanced at her husband. "Well, I know I know, but..." She didn't know how to answer the driver who she had never met before, so she hesitated.The following words made the driver feel that they were not acquainted with Sandov personally, but because of his "famousness". "Really? Michio Sayama is very famous!" "How do you know Sayama?" "He's an old friend of mine." Indeed, I have heard that Koyama’s hometown is Kyushu.The wife remembered what Cun Han, the owner of the beauty salon, had said before, so she whispered a few words to her husband.

Sang Shan looked at the driver's name hanging on the driver's seat, it was called "Jiangtou Shanzao".Sangshan handled many cases when he worked in the Fukuoka District Prosecutor's Office, and knew many people with the surname of Ren He Jiangtou. "Oh, really? So, you were invited to the concert because Sayama and Kusaka were here, and you went to see him, didn't you?" On the plane from Tokyo, the wife saw Sandorf passing by with those gorgeously dressed actors.Sangshan has also seen it. "No, it wasn't me who went to see him, it was Gong Fan who happened to take my taxi."

"Palace meal? "Oh, it's the name of Tiger before, when I knew him well..." the driver said hesitantly. "When Sayama-kun called it a board when he was in Kyushu?" Sangshan asked for the first time. "Ah, yes, when I saw him the day before yesterday, he said that Sayama was his mother's family name, and he liked it, so he changed it." "Well, that's right." Such a thing is not without precedent.Artists and businessmen often do this kind of thing, probably because they think that hair designers also belong to the category of artists.

"How did you get to know Sayama here?" "Well...we worked together for a few days." In order to catch up with the green light at the next Wu Fuding intersection, the driver stepped up the accelerator and kept silent, as if he didn't want to say any more.He seemed to be fond of old friends, and he didn't want to expose the less than inglorious past of his successful friends in Tokyo. It is natural for the driver not to want to have a deep talk with the passenger just by chance. They understand this and don't ask deeply. It takes a short while from Wufuding to Hakata Station.

On the train, Sangshan's wife mentioned Doffer again. "I met Sayama on the plane, and the taxi driver said he was an old friend of Sayama. The world seems very big, but it is actually very small." Sangshan nodded.She was right, and she felt the same way. "What does Sayama do with this son?" The wife is still very interested. "Ok." "You said you worked with that driver, could you be a driver too?" "Who knows, Sayama has also relied on his own ability to do what he is today. The past may not have been so good. However, the past is the past. If he is more successful, he can become a character in the biography of a businessman."

"That's right, but that driver may have been vague about the past for Sayama's face." "Do they have friendship?" "However, the poorer you were in the past, the more praise Sayama's efforts would receive?" "That's true. However, the reputation of the king has not yet reached that level, and it is only developing. The driver surnamed Jiangtou probably feels that it is not good for him to let people know about it." "How do you know his surname is Jiangtou?" "There is a famous sign on the driver's seat. There are many people with the surname Jiangtou in Saga Prefecture, so it's easy to remember..."

If Sashan-kun had a higher reputation, then as you said, the more pitiful his past, the more honor it would be to his name.It's just that when his position has not been consolidated, it will only become the material for others to attack and slander.It is said that they undermine each other in the same industry, and the competition is very fierce. " His wife applauded his words. "It seems that the driver really cares about his friend." "Jiangtou may not be able to imagine that Tokyo is a fiercely competitive world, but always think of old friends, friends from hometown!"

After passing the water city, the left side is Zuoye Mountain, and the right side is Tianbai Mountain.Sangshan looked to the right through the window until the train passed Tianbai Mountain. "Hey, what date is it today? "Unlucky day, the 13th, April 13th..." That day was April 8, eight years and five days had passed. Sangshan took out a book of world judgment materials from his purse, and opened the place he saw last night. "The most notable case of wrongful conviction by confession is the case of Bollen, decided in the Balmont Supreme Court in September, 1819. The facts of the case are as follows: "Brothers Ballen were prosecuted for the murder of Russell Corbyn. Corbyn was the defendant's cousin, a frail and sane cousin, and the Ballen brothers, who were responsible for his upbringing, considered him a liability. It is thought that The Bollen brothers were working in a distant field on the day Corbyn disappeared, and Corbyn was there, first quarreled with their brothers, and then one of the two brothers hit Corbyn in the back with a wooden club Corbin was knocked down to the ground. Some people suspected that Corbin was killed on the spot, and when Corbin's hat was found in the field two or three months later, this suspicion was aggravated. "Later, as time went by, this suspicion gradually faded away. However, a person near the Ballen family dreamed several times that Corbyn was killed. The circumstances of the death and the place where the body was hidden. So the Bollen brothers were accused, and it was believed that they were the murderers of Corbyn. "After a close investigation by the authorities, many bones were found in an old cellar on the site, including human bones, and two animal claws. The defendants, the Bollen brothers, because of their own confession - the defendant's confession, they killed Corbyn , hiding the corpse in the cellar and tree hole at the scene - and the above facts, was sentenced to death. "The defendants, the Baolun brothers, appealed to the Legislative Department on the same day, requesting that the death sentence be commuted to life imprisonment. However, the result was that one of the defendants was allowed to commute the sentence. "So the defendant withdrew his confession and offered a huge reward to whoever found Corbin. Later, Corbin was found in New Jersey and soon returned to the Bollen brothers' home. In this way, the execution of the two brothers was revoked at a critical juncture . "Corbyn ran away quietly in fear of being killed by the Bollen brothers who had been abusing him, and the bones that were later found belonged to someone else. "The reason why the defendants made false confessions was because the authorities advised them that they would be convicted anyway, and the only way to save their lives was to appeal for a commutation of the sentence, and to commute the sentence, the only way to get that boon was to make a confession of repentance. "During the trial, there were countless supernatural and unreasonable confessions, as well as detailed descriptions of bizarre and unbelievable facts, as did the testimony of the witnesses. This can only show that the confessor is a liar or a mentally insane person." — Prosecutor Sangshan put the book on his lap. My wife said, "The world looks big, but it's actually small." This is the feeling I got when I was driving a taxi driven by Michio Sayama's old friend. It is a common saying.This proverb is the accumulation of accidental experience, and people derive common sense from its regularity, thus making it universal.That is to say, "common sense" demystifies the supernaturalness of chance.In this kind of common sense, "karma" is also included.What if this supernatural common sense gave the witness a strange confidence in the psychology of his confession? " Sang Shan sobered himself who was immersed in the afterimage of Tianbai Mountain, and found that the illusion of "supernatural" was hidden in his consciousness, so he couldn't help shaking his head. Ahead is the big smoky Toyota.The border of Kumamoto Prefecture is approaching. One day in mid-November of the same year, Sangshan Xiner was invited to attend the wedding banquet of a son of an ancestor at a hotel in the city center at 3 p.m. Sangshan arrived at the banquet hall of the hotel around 2:30.There is a banquet room arrangement list hanging at the door, with a list of ten groups of banquets written on it, and the banquet time is staggered.Today is an auspicious day for the zodiac. After reading the banquet notice reserved by the seniors, Sang Shan glanced to the side again, and saw a line of beautiful words written on the blackboard with white beard powder: "Mr. Hatano and Mr. Kubo, the two banquets are in the Furong Hall." There are three banquet halls on the opposite side of the spacious hall, and Sangshan went to one of them.There are receptions for various banquets in the hall, among which "Hatanoya—" has the most people and the most ostentatious reception.On the white table at the reception, there are many small wooden boxes containing small chrysanthemums for the guests. The delicate wooden boxes are marked with the "Hatano Securities Co., Ltd." mark. Hatano Securities Co., Ltd.—I have heard of it somewhere.While thinking, Sangshan walked to the reception desk where he was going, and after signing in, he walked along the corridor.Hibiscus Hall is just ahead, and people in dresses are walking up and down the door.It looks like the party hasn't started yet. Sang Shan entered the door and came to the guest lounge.Because of the groom's father, most of the guests were on legal matters, and Sang Shan held a glass of cocktail to chat with people to pass the waiting time. While talking with the senior prosecutor of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, Sangshan suddenly remembered what he didn't understand just now. The wife often met a "Mrs. Hatano" at the Murase beauty salon she used to frequent, and Hatano Securities Co., Ltd. was the company of the husband of "Mrs. Hatano".The wife said that Mrs. Hatano's husband was the manager of a securities company. Whether Hatano Securities Co., Ltd., which hosted the wedding banquet, is the wife's husband's company is still uncertain. However, even though there are many people with the surname Hatano, there are only a limited number of securities companies. If it was that company, then Hatano's son or daughter might be getting married.But Sangshan thought, do they have such a big child? When I was young, the messenger of the restaurant invited the guests to sit down, and everyone stood up in twos and threes and walked towards the hall. The Furong Hall seemed to be reopened at the same time. Sang Shan glanced to the right inadvertently, and saw the bride and groom walking from the lounge to the banquet hall one by one.Seeing the appearance of the groom, Sang Shan couldn't help being taken aback. The groom is about 50 years old, with thinning hair and a bald forehead. He wears a dress on his plump body, showing his extraordinary majesty.The bride who followed the groom had a western-style hairstyle. She looked about 30 years old, with a slender figure and a charming appearance. Sangshan has never seen the Hatano couple.But in terms of age, the groom in Furong Hall must be Manager Hatano, which can also be seen from the luxurious style of the reception. (Mr. Hatano's wife is a fat woman who gained weight in her middle age. No one can do anything about it.) Sangshan remembered what his wife had said. Until the end of the banquet, Sang Shan kept thinking about Manager Hatano's wedding.If it was normal, it would be fine, but he knew he had a wife, so this phenomenon puzzled him.During the banquet, the banquet hall next door burst into applause and laughter from time to time. As soon as Sangshan got home, he told his wife about it. "Strange, from what you said, that man seems to be right, but..." The wife frowned puzzled. "What's going on? Could it be that he divorced that wife? I've never been to Murase's beauty parlor since I moved here, and I don't know what happened to Mr. Hatano's wife." Kuangshan's wife said. Sangshan moved to Asagaya half a year ago, and his wife now has her hair done in a small beauty salon nearby. The wife said that she hadn't been there for a long time, and that she would go to the Cunyuan Beauty Salon tomorrow to have a look.The next evening, when Sangshan got home from get off work, his wife reported to him. "I heard that Mr. Hatano's wife died five months ago." The wife said with wide eyes. "No wonder!" The scene in the restaurant yesterday appeared again in Qin Shan's eyes.The remarried groom looked very happy. "Have you been sick before?" "No, it died suddenly." "What disease?" "Mr. Murasaku said he didn't know either, but he speculated that the lady was very fat, maybe she had a cerebral hemorrhage or a heart attack, and I thought so too. She is so fat, her blood pressure must be very high, and her heart will not be good." "Are you very fat?" "Well, but it doesn't make people feel so fat. She loves to dress up and is very particular about beauty and decoration." "How old are you?" "Age? Yes, it looks like he's in his 40s." Yes, the groom who entered the hotel banquet hall was over 50 years old. The bride following behind him was very young, no matter how you looked at it, there was at least a 20-year age difference between the two.The bride is slender and slender.The 50-year-old man hurriedly reunited less than half a year after the death of his obese and nearly half-mature wife, and his psychology is not difficult to understand. "However, Mr. Hatano is not talking about remarriage after only half a year." The wife who heard her husband talk about the wedding banquet last night condemned Hatano again, "Even if you liked her before, you have to wait until after the anniversary. This is common sense. Well!" "That was the old custom, times have changed now." "The new wife seems to have been in a relationship with him for a long time. Since we have been in contact for a long time, why should we wait so impatiently? We must take care of the influence!" "Oh, she's already had a relationship with him!" "According to Murakami. Mrs. Hatano's husband is the manager of a securities company. He lives a luxurious life and plays wildly. He may have a mistress. From his wife's tone, it seems that there is not much harmony between husband and wife." With an ordinary sense of justice, the wife condemns the sordid egoism of rushing to marry a mistress. "Isn't Murase-kun sympathetic to his former client?" "No, no, he said that she deserved what happened to that lady today." "He doesn't like her?" "It's not just this, I think it's because of business reasons." "Oh, is it because Mrs. Hatano doesn't frequent his beauty salon?" "It's like this. Originally, the village laziness was not happy about Sayama's resignation. Now that Sayama is famous, he is even more displeased. The village laziness's wife speaks ill of Sayama unabashedly. It is said that the one who opened the shop in Jiyugaoka and invested in it is partiality Mrs. Hatano of Sayama." "it is true?" "I don't know the amount, but it's true anyway." Mrs. Murase said regretfully, "Sayama has long been secretly planning to quit the village to work as a beauty salon, and Mrs. Hatano is his accomplice. The employees in the store have long known about him. Who has the boss and his wife in the dark about the plan." According to these words, there is another relationship between Mrs. Hatano and Xiangshan.Speaking of male beauticians and female customers, it will make people have an imagination. "To Mrs. Hui, I can't be sure if it's true or not. Zhushan and Mrs. Hatano are not. It's a general relationship. To open a shop in Jiyugaoka, spend tens of millions of yen. This is not the preference of ordinary customers for beauticians. It's a lie with her husband." "Tens of millions of yen." "It's a bit exaggerated, even half of it is not a small sum of money. Her husband is very rich in stock trading, so if the money is too big, it will be there." "The theory that you are rich because of stock trading is too simple. But anyway, she is very rich economically, so Mrs. Hatano may have more private money than ordinary people." "Because of these reasons, although Mrs. Hatano died less than half a year later, her husband married a woman he had been in love with before, and the village chief did not sympathize with her very much." Maybe he was a little gloating. "Mrs. Muraki also said that this time I went to the mountain to take advantage of it. No one wanted tens of millions of yen, and her husband didn't know about it. What a crime... Hey, I heard that Sayama is going to open a store in Aoyama." Prosecutor Sangshan went to work around 9:40. In Hibiya Park in mid-November, almost all the trees are gone.Today and tomorrow, the weather will be a bit chilly.Sang Shan took the elevator upstairs in the prosecutor's joint office building next to the park.From the first floor to the fifth floor, there are still several prosecutors from the District Prosecutor's Office in the elevator, some of them know each other, and some don't.Before joining the Fukuoka District Public Prosecutor's Office, Kuwayama was a prosecutor at the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office.There is only one third of the former colleagues left, and the rest have been scattered to various places. The only ones who have not changed are the prosecutors. Sangshan wanted to find Officer Sakurada, and when the elevator stopped on the third, fourth, and fifth floors, he watched carefully as the prosecutors from the District Prosecutor's Office got off the elevator one by one.As before, they carried the document packages containing the transcripts in their arms.When Kuwayama first served as the prosecutor of the Shizuoka District Public Prosecutor's Office and was transferred to Tokyo, he was also full of vigor.Of course, back then there were no modern office buildings as they are now, and in fact this building is still rough among post-war buildings. I got off the elevator with two colleagues on the sixth floor.There was still a thin man with frost on his temples remaining on the elevator. He was the deputy chief prosecutor of the Supreme Prosecutor's Office. Half of the sixth floor is the Public Security Department of the Local Prosecutor's Office, and the other half is the Criminal Department of the Higher Prosecutor's Office.The spacious office is equipped with heating, and seven or eight colleagues have already gone to work, gathering in twos and threes to chat. The table was in disarray, and judging cases, documents, and legal books were piled high, forming a natural fence in front of everyone.There is also a plastic plaque on each table with the names of the prosecutors written on it.Sangshan wrote two or three lines on a note, put it in an envelope, and called the female clerk: "Please go down to the Criminal Division of the District Prosecutor's Office and give this to Mr. Sakurada." The recipient is Sakurada Affairs Officer.Sakurada is an old detective who worked with Sangshan when he was the prosecutor of the District Prosecutor's Office. He is 42 years old this year. At 10 o'clock, the prosecutors were almost all here. Before that, they were just like ordinary company employees, chatting about sports news in newspapers, TV comments, etc., and at 10 o'clock, the prosecutors who were in charge of the public trial would put The file folder is under the armpit to appear in court, and the person in charge of reviewing the transcript is lying on the table.Chatting is bounded by 10 o'clock, and after 10 o'clock, the whole room is suddenly silent. The phone rang. "Prosecutor Kuwayama? This is Officer Sakurada." "Hello!" Prosecutor Sangshan said. "Hello!" Sakurada said in a low voice.He sings very well. Yuu just came to contact me, I'm free after 12:20. " "Then, let's have dinner together nearby. I want to trouble you with something. Let's talk while eating." "Ok." Putting down the phone, Sangshan took a sip of tea. Prosecutors recalled what the taxi driver in Fukuoka, Jiangtou, had said.He once said gratefully that due to the introduction of his old friend Michio Sayama, he not only watched the solo concert held by Tsuruko Cao Xiangtian in the theater for free, but also entered her backstage.It's a small place, so the recently famous Cao Xiangtian Tsuruko is very popular, and Michio Sayama will perform as her exclusive hair stylist, which is of course not unusual.Because he was an old friend, he spoke with pride, as if he was also very great. (Gong Fan is Sashan Jun's previous surname. When he met him the day before yesterday, he said that his mother's family name was Sashan. He liked this surname, so he changed it...we used to be with him in the past... —The wife heard that Mrs. Hatano and Sayama had an unusual relationship.It is said that his wife gave Sayama a lot of money, which is largely a slander from the owner and couple of the Murase beauty salon.However, it is not impossible. However, Hatano Taida's death has nothing to do with Sayama.It is said that the wife died of a sudden illness, and there is nothing suspicious about it.In addition, when she went to Kyushu on April 11 this year, although Sayama had been to Hakata, she was not with Mrs. Hatano, which also ruled out his suspicion.Furthermore, the death of his wife happened two months after going to Kyushu, which also shows that he had nothing to do with it. However, it is surprising that Mulberry has paid attention to some places.Maybe it's because I've been relatively free recently and I don't have any cases at hand. At about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the Sakurada affairs officer called Sangshan again. "I was very sorry just now." Sakurada was talking about having lunch together.I usually eat a 5,000 yen package meal at the Ministry of Justice restaurant in the basement of the office building, but today I served Sakurada at a nearby fast food restaurant. "I've figured it out, because time is tight, I'll check it out later, let me report to you what I have figured out first." "I'm sorry to bother you when you're so busy." "What time do you leave work today?" "I want to get out of here at five o'clock." "Then, I'll wait for you for a walk at the gate of the park with Leding." Sangshan agreed. At 5 o'clock, Sang Shan cleared up the things on the table.At this moment, no one from the District Prosecutor's Office will come.The High Prosecutor's Office is responsible for finding facts and interpreting laws in cases investigated by the District Prosecutor's Office.The Criminal Division of the High Prosecutor's Office has a number of prosecutors.There is no meeting today. At 5 o'clock, it was already dark.The short figure of Office Officer Sakurada paced back and forth at the door.The neon lights and car lights across the street illuminated Sakurada's hat from time to time.Sakurada has thin hair and always wears a top hat. "Have a beer over there?" Sangshan said as they walked together.They entered a beer hall in Youleding.The noisy voice of customers is conducive to talking about this kind of thing. "The manager of Hatano Securities Co., Ltd. is Hatano Wuichiro, 53 years old, and his ex-wife is Masako. He has been married for 22 years and has no children. Masako's father has been supporting Hatano to graduate from school. He is from his hometown. Hatano's family is poor. This kind of The situation is common." While drinking beer, Sakurada reported the preliminary investigation to Sangshan. This is not a report.Sangshan asked him for help not because of his position, but because of his previous relationship with him.Sangshan asked him a question, and this was his answer.Sangshan is familiar with his temper. "The death report of Masako was issued on June 17 this year. It was not a death of illness, but a death caused by an accident." "Death by accident?" "Correctly speaking, it was suicide. The death certificate submitted to the Shinjuku City Office was written by a doctor in Ome City, Nishitama County, the director of Moroka Hospital, Shutaro Moroka." "Did you die in Ome?" "It probably died by hanging in the forest near Mitake in Ome City. I heard that about a week after the death, the villagers found the body hanging from a tree with hemp rope. There was a Hatano in the handbag. The empty envelope of the Securities Co., Ltd. is from that envelope that the identity of the deceased was known." "Is this what Dr. Moroka said?" "I called to ask." "So the autopsy found nothing suspicious?" "No. After the autopsy at the police station, it was determined that it was a suicide, so the body was handed over to her husband Wu Yilang. It is said that many people committed suicide in the forest in that area. Even if you go to the mountains now, you will find some unidentified bones. .” Sangshan also heard about it.When he was still the prosecutor of the Tokyo District Public Prosecutor's Office, a skeleton was found on a path in Ome Mountain Forest, which caused a commotion.They once thought it was a corpse dismemberment case, but later learned that the neck was bitten off by wild dogs after the corpse of the suicide victim decomposed. "Wu Yilang came to collect the body?" "Yes. Because he died like this, he was cremated in the local crematorium and brought back." "No suicide note?" "I heard that there is a letter addressed to Wu Yilang in the small drawer of the cabinet at home. Wu Yilang can't explain the reason clearly, it seems that the family relationship is very complicated. Masako's suicide note probably wrote some apology words such as sorry for her husband." Sangshan thought of the rumors his wife had heard. "What about the suicide note?" "Wu Yilang was burned. He felt shameful and didn't want others to see it." If the wife confesses to having an affair with another person and commits suicide, the husband certainly doesn't want it to be seen. "The lady Wu Yilang recently married is Kubo Sumiko, the female owner of the Comfortable Nest Bar behind the Ginza. Wu Yilang is her investor, and the two started a relationship three years ago. That is to say, because Masako committed suicide, his mistress It became the main house. I heard that Wu Yilang didn't care about waiting until the anniversary to hold the wedding." Half a year after his wife's sudden death, Goichiro Hatano formally married his mistress Sumiko Kubo, whom he had a relationship with for a long time. The reason for this can be seen from Kuwayama seeing the bride's beauty.Sangshan has never met Hatano's ex-wife Masako, and heard from his wife that she is fat, so Wu Yilang is happy to marry this young and beautiful second wife.It is not difficult to understand Wu Yilang's impatience in organizing the wedding in a hurry.It goes without saying that Kubo Sumiko also has no objection.She is also happy to officially become the manager's wife of a securities company.It's just that the wedding was held too early, and the two had somewhat scruples about public opinion. But what are you worried about?Being afraid of wolves and tigers in the past makes me lose my skills. That kind of life is stupid in a sense.As time goes by, gossip gradually decreases until it is eliminated, and finally it will be recognized by the society as a fait accompli.In short, the dead suffer.Friends would probably half-jokingly say to Goichiro Hatano: "You're really good!" This kind of thing is not the first in society. However, Sangshan didn't want to let it go because the society is used to such things. The police station he belonged to decided that Masako's sudden death was a suicide death. Is this really the case?Because he heard his wife's rumors about Masako and Michio Sayama, Sangshan had to be suspicious. "The death report of Masako Hatano was issued in June, so is June 17 the date when the body was found in the Ome forest, or the date when Masako ran away from home?" Sang Shan poured beer into Sakurada's cup, side asked. "It was the date when the body was found. It is said that on the slope of the mountain forest, the rope broke and the body slipped to the ground. It has been a week since Masako left home. Did Masako commit suicide on the day she ran away from home, or did she commit suicide a day or two later? The autopsy also failed to determine, so the Hatano family set the date of discovery as the date of death." In theory, there is no shortage of precedents. "When did Masako leave home?" "It is said that it was June 10. When the police department asked Wu Yilang about the situation, it was about two o'clock in the afternoon. Masako went out when she said something happened to a friend's house. Wu Yilang was not at home at the time. This is what the maid at home said. of." "Didn't Masako tell the girl the name of the friend who went to visit?" "I heard that I didn't tell." "She went out by car, is it a family car?" "I heard that it is not a family car. Although there is a family car, Wu Yilang drives it by himself on holidays. He usually parks in the garage and is picked up by the company's car when he goes to work. Masako always takes a chartered car or calls a taxi outside. .It was a taxi that day." "Don't you know where to go by taxi?" "The local police station judged it to be a suicide, so it seems that there is no investigation into these things." "Masako wrote a suicide note to Wu Yilang. No one has seen it. The suicide note has the meaning of apologizing to Li Yilang. How is it written?" "I called the police station where I belonged. I don't know about it. However, Wu Yilang has such a mistress, and the family must not be harmonious at ordinary times. Masako will definitely seize the opportunity to quarrel with her husband. As a result, she Realizing that her husband’s love could not be saved, she committed suicide tragically. Is that so? In this case, women probably have to write down the resentment in their hearts on the suicide note; Gentleness. Wu Yilang may only emphasize this part to people." "How's the weather from June 10 to the gate?" Sang Shan suddenly changed the subject. "I checked this. Those few days were very hot, and the average temperature in the area around Ome was 278 degrees." "Is it raining? It's the season of plum blossoms, isn't it?" "Yes, but the rainy season is late this year. It will be light rain on the 15th or 6th day, and it will really rain from the 20th onwards." The body had been drenched in rain before it was discovered, and the weather was already high temperature before and after, so it decomposed quickly.The rain rotted the cords that strangled his neck, and the body slid down the hillside. "Where the body is found, people usually commit suicide?" "Yes. There is a stream nearby, and the scenery is pleasant. It is a tourist attraction. People who drive family cars gather there on Sundays and festivals, and many people go there by tram. It is very lively. Suicides have a strange psychology. I like to choose places with beautiful scenery.” "There are more suicides in scenic spots. The scene is deep in the mountains?" "No, it's not. There's a walking path along the stream, just where it leads to the rice in the mountains, and that place is very unobtrusive." Sangshan believes that there are three reasons why the police station where he belonged to concluded that it was a suicide, namely: the body had decomposed; there were more suicides in that area; the husband Wu Yilang was mentally prepared for his wife's suicide, and so on.It can be considered that the husband's words have a great influence on the judgment of the police station to which he belongs. "Did anyone nearby see Masako go to the scene? She is obese, and she is very conspicuous in that area." Sangshan continued to ask Sakurada.It's the third bottle of beer. "I didn't ask the police station where I belonged to about these things. I will investigate them together tomorrow. If necessary, I can go to the local area." Sakurada stared puzzled, as if he wanted to ask why he was so interested in that suicide case.So Sangshan said to Sakurada: "The police station where it belongs has determined that it was a suicide, and the body has been cremated. It is impossible to re-investigate the matter now. However, I am very concerned about this suicide case." "You mean Masako may not have committed suicide, but homicide?" Officer Sakurada stared at Kuwayama's face. "I'm not so clear in my mind, and there are some things that make me feel strange." "Are you saying that Wu Yilang sympathized with the wife Kubo Sumiko? Do you think that Riichiro killed his wife in order to sympathize with the woman and get married as soon as possible? He did not commit the crime directly, but used other methods to cause this result. Yes ?" It is not uncommon for prosecutors to murder their own wives in order to sympathize with their wives.However, people who are managers or social status people like Hatano Goichiro seldom do this kind of thing.Sakurada simply thought that what Sangshan suspected was Wu Yilang's premature sympathy for marrying his wife. "As I said just now, I don't have a clear suspicion." The prosecutor said, "It's just that I don't understand something about the determination of suicide. This case has passed now, so let's investigate what can be investigated again." , so you can rest assured." "Investigate what?" "At present, I want to know the whereabouts of Hatano Wuichiro from June 10th when Masako left home to the 17th when the body was found, especially the two days after Masako left home are the most important." "Understood. If Wu Yilang is on a business trip, then even the place of the business trip should be checked." From the city to Ome, no matter by train or car, it takes four hours to go to and from the department, plus five hours for on-site operations.It is rare for an enterprise manager like a securities company to have five or six hours of blank time. Therefore, there must be a good reason for that time.The "business trip" that Sakurada said meant that he used it as an "excuse". "Yeah, it's very necessary. And the prodigal Kubo, where did she live before she got married?" "The apartment in Qingshan, I heard that Wu Yilang lived in it three years ago." "Ask the manager and investigate her whereabouts after June 10. Of course, you will not be negligent. These cannot be noticed by herself and the people around her." "understood." "Chengzi is one year older than Wu Yilang, and she's the owner of a bar, so she must have had relationships with other men before she hooked up with Wu Yilang. I want to know if she still maintains those old relationships after hooking up with Wu Yilang." The precedent of an adulterous woman and her lover jointly acquiring the patron's property is not uncommon.After Kubao Chengzi officially married Wu Yilang, because he had no heirs, all the family property would belong to Chengzi.Sakurada believes that prosecutors seem to want to use this as a "motivation" for the investigation. "There is also Masako who committed suicide," Sangshan said. "Masako knows that her husband has a woman, and there are frequent disputes in the family. So how is Masako's conduct? I want to learn about this for reference." Sangshan deliberately did not mention Michio Sayama.It would be great if Michio Sayama's name appeared during Sakurada's investigation of Masako, and now there is no need to give Sakurada any prejudice. "About Masako's character, yes, she is rich, has no children, and her husband has a mistress outside, so she will seek comfort outside when she is depressed. Her husband is unrestrained, and she can do whatever she wants." Sakurada smiled and nodded.This kind of thing is not surprising in society. "One more thing... On April 12th and 13th, was Masako Hatano in Tokyo?" "April 12th and 13th?" The leap in the conversation made Lou Tian lose his mind, "What do you mean? Wasn't that two months before Masako's death?" “是啊，以那天为中心，在前后两三天中雅子是否在东京，这一点我很感兴趣，请你也了解一下。” 樱田没再追问缘由。在检察官与事务官之间养成习惯，那就是一切都按照检察官的意志行事。这一次似乎是公务，实际上可以说是桑山的私事，然而，这件私事的性质却使事务官仿佛觉得自己同桑山检察官重又恢复了以前的关系。 —那天晚上，桑山对妻子闭口没谈波多野雅子和佐山道夫。不用说，他正调查雅子'咱杀”这件事也只字没露。在这一点上，他的关注带有公务色彩。 “在维也纳附近的体巴鲁兹贝尔克，一个名叫玛丽·海拉莱尔的妇女从50米高的岩壁坠落，摔成重伤，被巴登医院收容。妻子重伤住院本该使丈夫惊慌失措，可是他那悲伤的态度中透出几分假意。所属的维也纳警察署接到报告后查明，海拉莱尔同妻子结伴外出旅行之前，曾对邻人放风说：如果我们出去旅行没回来，家里的房屋就给亲戚。警方还了解到，海拉莱尔同一位女同事有不正当关系，甚至同她订立婚约。从海拉莱尔夏天同妻子一起到意大利旅行时起，他们的家庭生活便突然遭到不幸。 “法院调查查明，在现场的其他安全地带，有很多他想折断的那种树木，可是海拉莱尔偏偏要折断靠近悬崖的那一棵树。抓住这一点深入追究，于是他便供出以下犯罪事实：他选择危险地带的那棵树，确实是为了引诱妻子上前。因为他太靠前，妻子不由得扑到他的怀里，他用力一推，妻子便头朝下栽到悬崖下。” 桑山在读一本外国的《伪装杀人犯罪案例集》
