Chapter 47 Section Thirteen

The court regarded a crowbar and a live wrench intentionally left on the scene as the only physical evidence. Therefore, the defender decided that it was impossible to complete such a large-scale operation in a short period of time.But to complete a job of this scale, how can you do it stupidly with only a crowbar and a wrench?Bring a few more crowbars and wrenches, and the on-site destruction work can be completed in a short time.All kinds of contradictions and flaws appeared because of insisting on matching the actual situation with Akama's confession. As mentioned earlier, because the warehouse of Otsuki Silk and Satin was robbed the night before, the police station set up an emergency cordon that night.Then, was there any kind of understanding reached between the sentry of the above-mentioned sabotage squad and the emergency alert of the Japanese police?If the word "understanding" is used too heavily, it can also be understood that the vigilance of both parties is a coincidence.It is speculated that it was not the investigation unit that sent out the alert, but too many security unit personnel were mobilized.

Here, please think about the fact that the Tamagawa police arrived too soon after the incident.Moreover, Tamagawa police did not get the report of the accident from the police, but the State-owned Railway Management Department directly called his home.Whether it was this contact method or the speed with which the Tamagawa police arrived at the scene, and after he arrived at the scene, he immediately ordered to search for "things" before he knew that the crowbar and wrench were missing in the warehouse, all his actions These are the reasons why the defenders and Mr. Hirotsu raised various doubts.I am afraid that only what I have deduced above can explain the facts.

Sato Kobusuke, who served as the chief of the security department at the Fukushima District Police Station, testified in the court of the first instance that he stayed at the police station in Matsukawa until about eleven o'clock that night.Why did the security chief of the district police station stay so late at the Songchuan police station?This is also reminiscent of the actions of the Tamagawa police.It is also recalled here that he once said that he could not remember the names of the seven or eight criminal police officers he had commanded at the scene. In order to further explain this matter, I would like to quote the records of "Suwa Memorandum".As we all know, the prosecutorial authorities hid the "Suwa Memorandum" until the Supreme Court's trial.The memorandum mentioned that Toshiba's labor union conducted collective bargaining with the company.Using judicial techniques, the procuratorial authorities are anxious to prove that Kazu Sato participated in the collective bargaining. In other words, whether Kazu Sato can be proved to have attended the collective bargaining is the key to determining whether Kazu Sato and others have held a joint plan.

However, there are other strange things recorded in this "Suwa Memorandum". There is a record on the eighth page of the "Suwa Memorandum", which shows that at that time, Toshiba Corporation's Matsukawa Factory had contact with the national police, local police, the Civil Affairs Department of the U.S. occupation army, the "counterintelligence team", and the Labor Affairs Bureau. On the eighth page of the "Suwa Memorandum", there is a personal note written by Shinichiro Satori, the assistant chief of the affairs section of the Matsukawa Plant of Toshiba Corporation at that time:

"Thirteen's external relations (in case of emergency) are mainly handled by people surnamed Xi. "National Police Headquarters - Security Section Chief (Deputy Section Chief) "To deal with the 'Red Flag Incident' at 6:30, about ten people since the 11th. "Local Police - Chief of Police - Supporters "The base - the original "Ministry of Civil Affairs - Labor Affairs Section (Interpreter Field) "'Counterintelligence Team' - Call 1360 - Interpreter Kato - 'It's Matsukawa, please' contact twenty minutes "Labor Policy Section - Field Section Chief or Plateau

"The maximum number sent by the CC or the local police is thirty." These sentences on the memorandum are interpreted as follows: "To communicate with the National Police Fukushima Prefecture Headquarters, please contact the chief of the security section (or deputy section chief) of the department. Ten people from that side have come to support since the 11th. To contact the Fukushima prefectural police, please contact the chief of the security section (according to the instructions) The above-mentioned Sato Moriyi Police Department Supplement; as mentioned earlier, this person stayed at the former police station in Matsukawa until late at night). The point of "base—hara" caught our attention. There, the Sato Beixiong policeman will sit there all night long, and he will understand the meaning of it. Since it is called a base, doesn't it mean that the security deployment has been made around this place, as long as you contact here, Can the police be immediately dispatched to suppress the Toshiba trade union? What is even more astonishing is that they have also established a system to maintain close contact with the Labor Affairs Division of the US Civil Affairs Department and the "Counter-Espionage Team". Just relying on the words "It's Matsukawa, please" If you notify the other party, you will be able to make the other party understand everything and take action." (See "Central Koron", "Matsukawa Incident" Special Issue - written by Mr. Kumagai Tatsuo)

From the above situation, we can understand how close the US agencies and the Japanese police usually maintain. When I think of the Tamagawa Police Department, I can't help but think of the Shiratori Kazuo Police Department in the "Shiratori Incident".Police Department Shiratori was the head of the security department of the Sapporo Local Police Department. At that time, he was in charge of dealing with the Japanese Communist Party, and on the other hand, he was often in contact with the American "counterintelligence team".He is said to have provided the information he collected not to the municipal police department to which he belonged, but to the national police, which is linked to US intelligence.Then, it is reminiscent of the situation of the Tamagawa Police Department, which, like the Shiratori Police Department, has a special connection with the "counterintelligence team" and the national police.

Putting that aside for now.If the above-mentioned activities I deduce were carried out that night, then doubts will naturally arise: no matter how late the night is, no matter how remote the place is, there will always be witnesses.But until today, there have been no witnesses.However, despite the absence of eyewitness testimony, it cannot be concluded abruptly that there was no such fact. In particular, because of the extraordinary zeal of the police, those involved in the case were being arrested one by one, and everyone was very afraid of being involved.To this day, if someone goes to conduct on-the-spot verification and ask nearby residents, people are still tight-lipped and don't know what to say.

In particular, if anyone witnessed such a heavily guarded and unusual situation, they would be too frightened to tell others.It has to be said that the special agent class has seen through people's psychology. There was also a sad episode in this case: it was said that a man who had seen suspicious men that night died in an unknown manner.It was also mentioned in that strange typed English document, which is now well known.However, here is a brief description. The eyewitness was a man named Sato Kanesaku from Shirakawa Village.He happened to pass near the scene where the train derailed, and vaguely saw two "big men" unloading the rails from the sleepers.Seeing this situation, he was a little puzzled and thought to himself: What are they doing?Then I explained to myself, probably inspecting or repairing the rails, and wasn't too surprised.A Japanese in the group followed him.When he was opening the door of his house, the man called him from behind in Japanese, told him not to tell others what he saw tonight, and warned him that if he told others, he would be punished by the U.S. military trial.He didn't know what was going on at all, so he replied that he would not tell anyone.

It wasn't until the next day that he realized why.When he was feeling uneasy about the overturned car, five days later, a stranger came to him, showed him a map with the location of the "counterintelligence team" office in Fukushima City, and told him to go there tomorrow. Come on, I have something to say to him.He was even more frightened, so he ran away from his home and went to seek refuge with his younger brother who was a tricycle driver in Yokohama, and became a tricycle driver himself. However, after two months as a tricycle driver, he disappeared on January 12, Showa 25.More than 40 days after his disappearance, the family members heard that his body was found floating in the harbor.Jin Zuo's younger brother and family members went to identify the body, but it had already been cremated.

I heard that the result of the autopsy was: "There was no injury. Probably he fell into the harbor drunk and fell into the harbor, and died due to a heart attack." After investigation, the incident written in English did indeed happen. The dead Kanesaku seemed to have been afraid of someone before he was alive, and wrote Chuanliu (a short poem composed of 17 characters, using common sayings to satirize the world and human conditions; Shigai Chuanliu (1718-1790) Founded, hence the name.): "Black and black, I understand the mood of suicide", "Silk cotton twisted my neck, almost broke my head", "Woke up from a dream after unloading eight pieces", "The troublemaker went to the grave silently", "The news in the newspaper attracts attention". According to rumors, a beggar who lived near the scene of the overturned car for a long time disappeared at some point after the incident. Regardless of whether these things are directly related to the overturning incident, at least it can show that even if there are witnesses, they will not easily tell the incident.Then, of course, the sabotage team carried out sabotage operations calmly under the vigilance of their own accomplices, indirectly under the emergency vigilance of the Japanese police, and in an environment without witnesses.
