Chapter 74 fourth quarter

After reading the letter, Yabe raised his head, and the train was heading towards Tokyo in the dark.Iseki, who was sitting in the front seat, had closed his eyes, his pale face was clearly showing signs of fatigue. Detective Takimi, who came from Tokyo, was sitting next to Iseki with a nervous expression on his face. After Yabe put Iseki's letter in his pocket, he sat down on the seat behind and said to Shinkichi Ijuin, "Which newspaper do you plan to publish this incident on?" "I don't submit articles to any newspapers." Yijiyuan said with a smile. "Besides, there are no newspapers worthy of my contribution. I just need to breathe the fresh air of Sendai and I will be satisfied."

"I don't understand, this can get a very high manuscript fee!" "That's because you don't understand me." After Ijuin said so, he lit a cigarette. "Maybe it's because it's a special article, so maybe I want to bury it in my heart, let alone..." "Not to mention what?" "I'm also thinking about whether I should use this opportunity to wash my hands? Because I already know very well that I am not a reporter." "I really don't understand," Yabe said. "There's one more thing I don't understand, and that's the portrait."

"That?" Ijuin smiled wryly. "You're not really talking nonsense, are you?" "It's not all nonsense. I met Mariko Tajima the day before the incident. At that time, she was wearing lavender clothes, and even her coat was lavender. A woman like her must have been wearing lavender three years ago." Purple clothes, that's why I said lavender, I didn't expect to be guessed right." Ijuin seemed to be scratching his head in embarrassment, his behavior made Yabe feel once again that the incident was over. Except for one person, the incident can be said to have ended. Yabe shifted his gaze to Iseki, who was already asleep.
