Chapter 18 Chapter Seven: The Beginning and End of the Tragedy

"I think the problem mainly comes from the different circumstances of Ms. Shinno Juki and Isono Akiko, as well as the resulting dissatisfaction, injustice, and aversion to each other." The Triangle Office in the Triangle Building is still looking messy and messy.However, it is rare to have a beautiful guest here today, and there seems to be a feeling of flourishing.This beautiful guest is none other than Xin Yezhushu brought by Saoya Liusuke. "Miss Shinno Zhuki is very beautiful, but Isono Akiko is not inferior. In the student days, the two of them were probably the twins in the class. However, one is the president's daughter, and the other is a poor salesman. Facing This kind of injustice of fate, Akiko Isono can't help but feel a kind of injustice. What arouses her hatred even more—Mr. Suoya, is your marriage contract with Miss Zhushu."

As Kosuke Kindaichi said, he winked at Rokusuke Usaya. "Akiko Isono has always admired you. Speaking of this kind of thing in front of the two of you, it makes people feel like you are very popular among the female shop assistants. Haha! Iso Ye Yakiko didn't think about marrying you in detail, but she still had a vague expectation in her heart. However, the object of her admiration is now competing with her former partner. Or, the current thorn in the side—Miss Xinye Zhushu got married, and her heart would naturally become more and more unjust. But if it was just like this, the invisible jealousy in her heart would turn into a hidden hatred and be buried, and this feeling, unconsciously Feelings are forgotten, or cooled.

"Unfortunately, at this juncture, she just learned the true face of the so-called 'Hei Lanji'. As a result, her hatred for Miss Xinye Zhushu intensified. Because she is the president's daughter Miss, the crime of theft can also be forgiven. Not only that, Mr. Suoya knows that she has that habit of stealing, but he still wants to marry her. On the contrary, he is just a poor salesman, and no one cares about him at all. ... Akiko Isono really has a naturally unfortunate character. Her greatest misfortune is that she is too self-aware and no one appreciates her. Well, since Miss Zhushu is allowed to steal, then go There is nothing wrong with doing it... In other words, rather than being greedy, this is more of a secret revenge on Ms. Shinno Zhushu. So, the fake Hei Lanji appeared like this."

Miss Xinye Zhushu nodded with a serious expression.Even though he was cleared of the horrible suspicion of murder, his dirty habits pushed a woman into such an abyss of evil. Thinking of this, her heart sank deeply into the quagmire and she couldn't extricate herself. "It turned out to be like this. However, this point was noticed by Gong Wu Jiner, the director of the third floor, and was threatened by him, right?" "That's right. You reminded Gongwu that there was a fake Hei Ranji, and in the process of paying attention, Gong Wu discovered that the fake Hei Ranji was actually Akiko Isono. Later, when he was blackmailing Akiko Isono , he might have learned the real origin of Hei Lanji from her again. So he threatened Miss Xinye Zhushu. That is to say, he killed two birds with one stone. In the case of the veiled woman theft, he also threatened Akiko Isono and Miss Zhuki."

Miss Xinye Zhushu couldn't bear the feeling of self-blame, she couldn't even raise her head. Kosuke Kindaichi continued: "Finally, the day came when the crime happened. Akiko Isono lied about going to the bathroom and went down the staff-only stairs. Next to the stairs, there happened to be a women's clothing studio, where human bodies wearing finished dresses were kept. Model. She knew from a long time ago that there was a black coat inside, very similar to the coat worn by Hei Ranji. She put on that coat and covered her face with a veil... The veil and hat were undoubtedly hidden in the Somewhere in the women's clothing department...

"Just like that, she turned into 'Hei Lanji', went down to the second floor, and then came up from the guest stairs. However, she miscalculated that day. The director of the third floor was new, and Fushimi Shunko was also a newcomer. , not familiar with Hei Lanji's situation... She was inattentive and forgot all of this. She thought that even if she stole as usual, the other party would still let her go, but she was caught instead, and , Seeing that she was about to be exposed. Once she was exposed, everything would be over, so she did that kind of desperate behavior."

"Besides, she didn't want people to know about it, so she killed Gong Wu Jiner, didn't she?" Suo Gu Liusuke asked in surprise. "Yes, that's right. Knowing that the fake 'Hei Ran Ji' belonged to Akiko Isono, there was no one else except Kinji Miyatake, so Isino killed him. On that day, Miyatake might It was to get the stolen goods. If there hadn’t been a murder case, I’m afraid Akiko Isono would still obediently hand over the stolen goods to him and be coerced by him forever. The other party survived again, and the first time she killed her, she became cruel and bold. So she left after being poisoned. Then, Miss Xinye Zhushu, you came."

Xin Yezhushu seemed to recall the situation at that time, his body trembled. "Yes, that day I received a letter from an unknown source. The letter asked me to bring the money there at that moment, otherwise the secret of 'Hei Lanji' would be disclosed...so..." "In the end, you rushed to see that the other party was already dead. You fled from your family in a fright, didn't you? ... But how did that dagger get into your handbag?" "The thing is like this. When I ran out of the mall, I bumped into someone in the dark and dropped the bag. The other person picked it up for me and handed it to me. If a dagger was put in it, That could only be at that time. I was already panicked, and after I took the bag, I ran out desperately..."

"Oh, that is to say, Akiko Isono found you on the way to escape after poisoning Guanwu, so she took advantage of the situation to ambush and put on such a play, right?" Having said that, the three fell into silence.Soon, Suiya Liusuke asked as if thinking of something: "So, have you been suspicious of Akiko Isono from the very beginning?" "Well..." Kindaichi Kosuke said with a smile, "I don't know about this myself. I just felt a little strange when she left the counter suddenly when the case happened. And that potassium cyanide... now Although the society is in turmoil, not everyone can have the dangerous drug potassium cyanide. However, I recently read a report in the newspaper, saying that before the end of the war, a certain munitions factory distributed Potassium cyanide was ordered by the employees to kill themselves with this thing in case of an emergency. So I thought, maybe the W weapon factory where Akiko Isono used to work will also have the same situation. Iso Ye Yakiko is the kind of woman who can be cruel, since she pretended to be 'Hei Lanji', she might have been carrying it with her all the time, just in case."

Suddenly, Xinye Zhushu twitched violently: "Isino is so pitiful, she heard that she went crazy in the police station. Obviously the fault is all my fault..." "Yeah, if you really act like this, please strengthen your self-discipline in the future and get rid of that bad habit." While sobbing, Xinye Zhushu kept nodding her head, and Suiya Liusuke gently stroked her shoulder. Kindaichi Kosuke suddenly stood up and walked to the window. The showers are falling bleakly on the ruins of the back streets of Ginza, like the tears of the new wild bead tree, like the sobs of Akiko Isono.
