Chapter 33 third quarter

"That's right! It must be that yacht." The Totsukawa Police Department said confidently. "The Coast Guard must be notified immediately to ask them to help investigate where the yacht is now." Kamei said. "Yes. However, the yacht's name may have been changed, and even the paint color of the hull may have been changed." "On this point, you can also say hello to the security department in advance." Kamei said. While Totsukawa was reporting to Mikami Criminal Minister in Tokyo, Kamei called the Coast Guard. Kamei explained in detail the type of yacht in question, the size of the hull, the horsepower of the engine, etc.

After hanging up the phone, Kamei said to Totsukawa: "This area belongs to the fourth jurisdiction of the Coast Guard. The headquarters decided to immediately send patrol ships and planes to search the sea." "Where is the headquarters of the jurisdiction?" "In Nagoya City." "Then let's go to the headquarters right away. I want to know the news of the gangsters as soon as possible." The Tojinchuan Police Department said anxiously. The Ishida police department of the prefectural police station drove a police car and sent Totsukawa and Kamei to the Coast Guard and the headquarters of the Fourth Jurisdiction in Nagoya City.

As soon as the car entered the city, it began to rain lightly. It was a cold autumn rain. "In this way, it will be difficult to search the sea from the air." The Totsugawa Police Department looked at Yusi outside the car window and thought worriedly. After arriving at the headquarters of the fourth jurisdiction, Totsukawa immediately met with Minister Mizushima of the headquarters and expressed his deep gratitude for their assistance. Probably because of frequent patrol boats, Mizushima is a dark-skinned, burly man. "Considering the size of the yacht, its scope of action is limited. It should be found soon." Mizushima said optimistically.

Although the other party was an expert, Totsukawa still felt uneasy. "These gangsters carry a huge sum of 500 million yuan with them, and they killed two people last time, and three people this time. They are gangsters with blood on their hands. They will definitely try their best to find a way to escape." said worriedly. "It doesn't matter. Don't think that the sea is vast and boundless, and you can go wherever you want to escape. This is completely an illusion. Unless it is a nuclear submarine, it can hide on the bottom of the sea for a long time. Like such a small yacht, the fuel will soon be exhausted." If it is used up, it will have to stop at a certain port to replenish fuel, water and food. When the time comes, information about that ship will naturally be reported.”

Mizushima patted his chest, trying to comfort Totsukawa. However, this day's search finally ended in nothing. Needless to say, the scope of the search is not limited to the fourth jurisdiction.Considering that the yacht in question had left Shigasaki Port for some time, the search area was decided to extend to the entire Japanese territorial waters on the Pacific side. The next morning, the weather improved and the sky was clear.But the cooler northeast monsoon intensified, after all, it was late autumn. At 10:05 in the morning, came the news that Totsukawa was eagerly looking forward to:

The Coast Guard's plane was not within the fourth jurisdiction, but found a white yacht about 30 feet long floating on the water near Hatsushima in Sagami Bay. The ship's name has been erased from the stern. "It must be the yacht in question!" The Totsukawa Police Department was convinced of this. Thirty minutes later, the second report came: the patrol ship Junfeng had left the port of Yokosuka and was rushing to the scene. Since then, no news has come in for the time being.Totsukawa was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan. Could it be that the news of a drifting yacht found in the sea near Hatsushima was a false alarm?When Totsukawa was secretly worried, a third report finally came.

This third report brings shocking news. At 1:07 p.m., the "Junfeng" docked with the yacht in question.Two armed police officers boarded the ship, entered the cabin to investigate, and found four male bodies.The cause of death is currently unknown.Currently, the "Junfeng" is towing the yacht on its way back to Hong Kong. The Totsugawa Police Department decided to go to Yokosuka immediately. He called the two detectives, Nishimoto and Kusaka, who were in Tokyo, and ordered them to go to Yokosuka first.Totsukawa and Kamei rushed to JNR Nagoya Station. When we arrived at the station, we happened to catch the bullet train "Hikari 346" departing from Nagoya at 1:55 p.m., and its terminal station was Shin-Yokohama.

Even if the two are sitting on the Shinkansen high-speed train, they are never in a calm mood. "Are all four men dead?" Detective Kamei asked the Totsugawa police department with a nervous expression. "Yes. But the woman wasn't among them." "Could it be that woman who killed these four men?" "It's also possible, and then the woman jumped into the sea to escape. However, I haven't seen it at the scene, so I can't say anything." Totsukawa tried his best to speak cautiously. Because the matter is of great importance, the patrol ship sent a notification as soon as possible.However, the videotape of the interior of the cabin of the yacht in question has not yet arrived.The so-called words are unfounded and seeing is believing. This is why Totsukawa rushed to Yokosuka.

Not long ago, there was news that all 18 guests staying in a hotel on an outlying island died, which caused great shock: but later investigations confirmed that only five of the guests needed to be sent to the hospital for treatment due to food poisoning.Why is there so much misreporting?No reason has been found so far. At 3:34 p.m., the train arrived at Shin-Yokohama Station.Change here to the Yokohama Line.After arriving at Yokohama Station, take the Yokosuka Line. We arrived in Yokosuka around 5:30 pm, and the surrounding area was shrouded in thin twilight.Meet at Nishimoto Station. "The criminal police under the sun are already over there."

"Isn't the problem yacht towed to the dock yet?" "Yes, not yet. I heard from the people in the headquarters of the jurisdiction that due to the slow hauling, it will not arrive until around 6 pm." Xiben detective replied. Detective Nishimoto led Totsukawa and Kamei to the trestle bridge where the patrol ship "Junfeng" was to berth.The minister of the jurisdiction stepped forward to greet Totsukawa. "Currently, the mass media don't know about this matter. In fact, before the arrival of the yacht, we haven't seen the situation inside the cabin of the yacht, so we can't say anything." The minister also said in a cautious tone.

"I heard that four male corpses were found in the cabin. Has there been a detailed report since then?" Totsukawa Police Department asked impatiently. The Minister's silence, watching the sea, indicated that there was no further news. The wind blowing from the dark sea is really cool.About 100 meters away from the pier, ships of the Maritime Self-Defense Force were moored side by side, revealing their dark silhouettes. Waited about fifteen or six minutes at the trestle.The patrol ship "Junfeng" finally approached slowly. Under the strong searchlights, the yacht that was dragging behind also emerged.The cabin of the yacht was pitch black because the generator had stopped. As soon as the yacht docked, Totsukawa and Kamei borrowed flashlights, and while shining them, they jumped onto the deck like a charge, and immediately entered the cabin. First of all, a bad smell of food corruption hits the nostrils.In the middle of the cabin stood a dining table, on which there was food, but it was spoiled. The light of the flashlight shifted from the table to the floor, and one, two, three, male bodies lying on the floor appeared one by one in the light of the flashlight.Those in suits, windbreakers, and woolen sweaters, but no matter which one they were, they all curled up like shrimps, biting their lips tightly, and the blood from the seven holes had dried up, turned black, and clumped together. Three male bodies were scattered around the dining table.Finally, the fourth male deceased fell near the entrance of the cabin. Before he died, the man stretched his hands forward, as if struggling to run from the cabin to the deck, and died of exhaustion. The Totsugawa Police Department and Kamei confirmed the appearance of each deceased with a flashlight. The faces distorted and deformed by the great pain may not look like the four men on the wanted list at first glance, but after careful observation, they are indeed Yuichiro Tashiro, Misao Kawakita, Jun Aoki and Tetsuya Tsujimura. Four bodies had begun to decompose. "All died of poison." Kamei said in a hoarse voice. As a criminal police officer, although he had seen more tragic corpses before, he felt a suffocating sense of uneasiness when he saw four corpses lying on the floor one after another in such a narrow cabin. "It seems to be cyanic acid poisoning, which may be mixed with food or ingredients." Totsukawa Police Department said. Forensic personnel from the Kanagawa Police Department arrived, and Totsukawa and Kamei walked from the cabin to the deck.Although it is cold and humid air, it gives people a particularly fresh feeling. "Are all four people really dead?" Xiben detective asked. "Yes, the four men in the Gang of Five. It seems to be poisoned by cyanic acid." The Totsukawa police department ran up the trestle from the deck again, and he stood on the bridge to re-examine the yacht. Two searchlights were brought in, and the strong light made the hull stand out like a relief on the dark sea.The white hull looks very elegant, but it is unimaginable that there are four dead bodies lying in the boat. "Is that the woman who killed the four men?" Kusaka Detective asked. "That's the only way to think about it." Kamei replied. "Then, what about the 500 million won cash?" "Not found." Tojinchuan Police Department said loudly.
