Chapter 28 third quarter

The criminal police were mobilized again, holding the copied tapes and recorders, and went to nightclubs and restaurants in Ginza to tour and play them. There was no news of Tashiro and Kawakita at all.After these guys successfully seized 500 million in cash, they didn't know where they hid. On the former speed skater side, using the elimination method, a man finally emerged: Aoki Jun.Thirty-seven years old. Aoki was a skater representing the school in college.Later, when I came out to work in the society and became a company employee, I seldom skated, but occasionally I would play with both hands.It was not until the age of 30 that a serious injury occurred and finally officially ended his skating career.

The incident was caused by Aoki getting drunk and fighting with others on the road.Relying on his athletic physique, he beat the opponent to the ground, and he was hospitalized for three months before he recovered.After making such a big mistake, he had to resign from the company.Since then, he has worked as a truck driver and other precarious jobs. During this time, he married, but divorced after a year and a half.Since October last year, his whereabouts are unknown. The photo of this man has also been obtained, and he is going to copy it immediately and distribute it to all parts of the country to be wanted.

All that's left now are the man from the biker gang and the woman who worked as a female publicist in Ginza. The Totsukawa Police Department speculated that the man who had spoken to Kamei on the phone was probably a member of the Biker Gang. The voice is quite young, without any local accent, it seems to be from Tokyo.If you are a member of the speeding gang, you may have had a traffic accident. Even if you have a driver's license, you may have a record of having your driver's license suspended many times.After careful investigation along this clue, another man emerged. This is a twenty-five-year-old man named Tetsuya Tsujimura.At the age of eighteen, he was the deputy leader of the Speeding Party S in Koto District.

Suspended his driver's license twice and was arrested once for assault.The Department of Transportation officers agreed that the man had a natural talent for driving.It is said that he was given the nickname "A Tie" among his friends at the time. After turning twenty, Tsujimura left Speeding Party S and went to work in a car repair shop. At the same time, he also served as a motorcycle racer, giving full play to his superb driving skills. At present, his whereabouts are unknown, and he has not contacted his mother who lives in Xiangdao. The Totsugawa Police Department and Kamei asked the 53-year-old mother to listen to the voice of "A Tie" in the tape. She said it was very similar to her son's voice. So far, only one woman remained among the five.

The Totsugawa Police Department originally thought that her voice was quite distinctive, and she worked as a female publicist in Ginza, so she might be able to find her soon.But it's surprisingly hard to find. In order to identify this woman, seven criminal police officers were mobilized.They shuttled between the buildings and halls of Ginza with the tape recorder, and took the trouble to ask the mother-san of the nightclub, the manager of the bar, and the female publicist to listen to the tape. The reaction cannot be said to be completely absent, no, it can even be said to be quite enthusiastic.Especially after the female publicists listened to the tape, they chirped and testified: "This is definitely Miyoko", "Isn't that the big-eyed girl who just left last month?"... Wait until the detectives have worked hard If there is no perfect alibi, or the voice is completely different, the criminal police are downcast and depressed.

The Totsukawa Police Department speculated that although Takata, who died in an accident, left behind a memo pad, it was mentioned that this woman was a "former Ginza female publicist", but could it be a mistake?Perhaps, this is not Gao Tian's conscious writing error, but the woman pretended to have worked in the Ginza nightclub for the sake of appearance, right? The Totsugawa Police Department expanded the scope and investigated Shinjuku, Shibuya, Ikebukuro, and all entertainment venues along the Chuo Line. There are almost hundreds of shops. After investigation one by one, the result is still the same as before.There is a lot of information, but none of them can be confirmed. As the saying goes, things happen for a reason, and there is no real evidence.Totsukawa had to withdraw his troops temporarily.

On the blackboard in the search headquarters, Totsukawa wrote down the names of the suspects: Only the woman, whose name has not yet been written. All four men have photos, which have been copied and sent to various international airports and ports across the country. Once they are found to have the intention to go abroad, they will be arrested immediately. However, so far, there is no sign of the four men going abroad.Perhaps, it is hiding somewhere in Japan. A week passed and there was still no news of the group. After the incident, a second investigation meeting was held.This meeting mainly reviews the work progress and situation in the past week.

The police issued a speech suppression order, but they were fooled by criminals instead.As soon as this matter spread, it was immediately condemned by the media, and newspaper editorials agreed that this was a serious mistake by the police. Under such circumstances, the police had to publicly admit that Gao Tian, ​​who was similar to the leader of the gang, died in a car crash. He had to keep the secret in order to arrest the criminal, but in turn fell into the trap designed by the criminal... Now that the "family ugliness" has been publicized, the names and photos of the four male suspects have been publicly released. In other words, the work of solving the case has shifted to the stage of public investigation.

"Since the public search was carried out, have you collected more information?" Minister Mikami asked the Totsugawa Police Department. "Today is the third day of the public investigation. On average, five or six citizens call to report every day, such as seeing the man in a similar photo, or reporting that someone has spent a lot of money...etc." After the Totsugawa police department finished speaking, they handed over the summary of the results of the investigation of these information to Mikami Criminal Minister for review, and at the same time sent a copy of the briefing to the subordinate criminal police for reference.

"Are all the investigation results in vain?" Mikami asked the Minister of Criminal Affairs. "Unfortunately, so far, we haven't caught any clues of the gangsters' actions. Most of the people who have been reported are similar-looking people, nouveau riche who speculate in real estate, and playboys with a lot of money and wanton squandering." "What are these guys doing now? Five people robbed 500 million yuan, exactly 100 million yuan each. Is it because the money is divided and everyone is scattered?" Mikami asked the criminal minister. "No. I thought the five of them were still together." Totsukawa Police Department expressed his thoughts.

"What's the reason?" "Needless to say, the relationship between these guys is definitely not a comradely union. They are just a gang formed to rob huge amounts of money. Now that the leader is dead and the huge amount of money has been snatched, they can't wait to do whatever they want immediately." "Since that's the case, what's the need for these guys to get together?" "Yes. The problem is that these guys are not idiots. Even though the leader is dead, they can still deceive us and steal a huge sum of 500 million yen skillfully, which shows that they are not ordinary people. At present, the huge sum of money Just got it, if they parted ways immediately, everyone went their own way, it would be easy for the police to catch clues to solve the case. They are well aware of the danger of separation. Therefore, these guys may have found a hiding place in advance, and they will hide for the time being and wait and see the police. action." "Then, when the society gradually forgets about this robbery, will everyone take 100 million won to enjoy themselves?" "That's right. The robbery incident of 350 million yuan in April, which cost two lives, has been almost forgotten by the general public. No one has brought up the report call. Although a huge cash of 500 million yuan was robbed this time, and three guards died unexpectedly, it will be forgotten by society in less than half a year. There are too many things that happen every day in modern society Now, a lot of information is pouring in like a tide, how can I have the energy to remember the past?" "So, where are these guys hiding?" Mikami asked the criminal minister. "First of all, it is worth considering places like the villas in Nishi-Izu. I bought a villa in the mountains in advance and lived in seclusion there for a while. The appearance of the woman among the five people has not been identified by the police so far. She was asked to go out to buy food and daily necessities. It will definitely not arouse the suspicion of the police." Totsukawa Police Department said. "Where else can I go?" "There are many options to choose from. For example, at present, a metropolis like Tokyo has a highly concentrated population. On the contrary, in those remote villages located in remote mountains and wild mountains, almost all the people in the village have run away. Even near Tokyo, there are There is an abandoned village. However, the buildings are still left in the abandoned village. Isn’t it a feasible way to escape into the abandoned village and hide?” "Yes! That's a good point." "Another option to consider is to use ships." "vessel?" "In Japan, there has been an increasing trend of offshore yachts recently. If you have five or six people and you have a lot of money, you might as well rent or buy a luxury yacht that can berthed, and leave Tokyo with it, leisurely and leisurely. Head to Ogasawara from Hachijo Island. You don’t need a passport to go to Ogasawara. If that’s the case, no matter how we search on land, we won’t be able to find them.” "There's a better way—" "What method?" Sankami Criminal Minister asked. "For example, I went to Shikoku Island to make a pilgrimage to the mountain. Now is the season when the golden wind blows cool, and someone doing the pilgrimage to the temple will never arouse the suspicion of others. All five people are dressed in white, wearing straw hats, and holding a vajra staff. Strolling around the island. Because it is a pilgrimage to the mountain to worship the temple, people have the preconceived impression that this is a group of devout believers. In this way, the robbers and murder suspects immediately became Buddhas. Until the public opinion on this case subsides." "In this way, the possibility of the five people dispersing and hiding is completely gone?" Mikami Criminal Minister asked Totsukawa again. "No, the possibility can't be said to be zero. Originally, it might be a way to disperse and hide among the crowds of the metropolis. However, each person holds a huge sum of 100 million yuan, and they can't help but spend it indiscriminately, and they were arrested by the police. There are clues to solve the case. Of course, you can also hide the 500 million yuan in cash somewhere, and then share the spoils when the rumors are not too tight. The problem is that these guys don’t trust each other. As a result, five people have to stay together for 500 million yuan The cash is hidden somewhere together. This is also convenient for mutual supervision." "Well, let's start the investigation according to the three clues that Totsukawa considered." Minister Mikami concluded.
