Chapter 4 third chapter

Nakaoka Yuji was slurping instant noodles while browsing the news on the Internet, and he caught a glimpse of the title "Film producer Mr. Yoshiro Mizushiro died in a hot spring", and almost choked on the noodles.Before he recovered from his surprise, he hurried to see the details. According to reports, Mizushiro Yoshiro and his wife went to Akakuma Onsen together, fell to the ground and died while walking in the nearby mountains.The incident happened when the wife returned to the hotel to pick up the forgotten items. When she was discovered, there was a unique smell of hydrogen sulfide nearby.Hydrogen sulfide was produced in several surrounding areas from time to time, and the deceased probably stepped into an area with excessive concentration by accident—so the report concluded.

Nakaoka put the half-eaten noodles on the table and opened the drawer.There was a mess of things in the drawer, but I couldn't find what I was looking for.It took a long time before he finally pulled out an envelope from a stack of documents.On the envelope was written "Kai Azabu North Police Station Murder Director".This letter was sent three months ago, and it happened to be in the hands of Nakaoka who was free.The head of the department, Narita, handed the letter to him indifferently, and said: "The old man is just joking, just read it." The sender's name is Miyosi Shuicheng. I don't know if this person is a man or a woman without reading the letter.

Nakaoka unfolded the letterhead.The letter was written in blue ink, and the handwriting was beautiful. After the "greetings", the sender wrote: "I take the liberty to write a letter, and I am very frightened. But this matter urgently needs to be discussed with others, so I wrote." Then the following content. When he read this letter for the first time, Nakaoka understood why Narita had an indifferent expression. This is often the case.A mother of course feels uneasy when her self-made son marries a woman forty years his junior.However, nothing happened yet.The police don't have time to deal with such unfounded worries one by one.

Having said that, but people sent such a long letter, if no action is taken, if something happens in the future, won't they be drowned mercilessly by the saliva of the whole society?Nakaoka went to see the old lady who sent the letter even though he couldn't get any more excited.She wrote down her address and phone number at the end of the letter. Mizushiro Granny's Home for the Elderly is located in Chofu.There are facilities such as a cafeteria, a large bath, and a health center in this building, but other than that, it is no different from an ordinary apartment.Of course, the old people's home she entered might be a high-end one.Nakaoka met Mrs. Shuicheng in a small conference room called the Meeting Room, but according to her, her room was a very spacious one-room apartment with a bed, table, and sofa.In addition to the bathroom and bathroom, it is even equipped with a kitchen.

"I moved in seven years ago. The money was paid by Yoshiro." The small, small-faced Shuicheng old lady seemed very happy. After asking, I found out that it was not an installment payment, but a one-time payment of sixteen years' rent.Nakaoka did a quick calculation in his mind and came to the conclusion that it would cost at least 40 million.No wonder the Shuicheng old lady was a little proud. But when Zhonggang mentioned the letter, the smile on the old lady Shuicheng's face disappeared, and the corners of her mouth curled up, and the wrinkles on her face deepened a little.

"Yes, I'm worried, I'm worried, I'm so worried. I can't stop thinking, what if she poisons Yoshiro..." "In reality, has anything ever happened to make you feel this way?" "As long as you see that woman, you will have this feeling. It is a face that is planning." "It's not a matter of feeling. Are there any more specific examples? For example, the son ate the food cooked by his wife and felt that there was a strange smell." "That woman basically doesn't cook and eats out. Really, she doesn't have the slightest sense of serving her husband."

The old lady of Shuicheng complained a long time about the young daughter-in-law of Qian Sato. "Has your son ever told you that you have been in an accident, or have been in danger?" The little old lady muttered in a low voice while concentrating on her thoughts. "I don't remember that. However, even if there is such a thing, Yoshiro is not very good at telling me." All in all, everything is just the imagination of the old lady in Shuicheng.Even if it is not delusional, it is enough to worry about. The old lady of Shuicheng seemed to see through Zhongoka's thoughts, put her hands together, and said: "Please, Mr. Police Officer. Please check that woman. Isn't it suspicious to buy life insurance suddenly? She must be calculating To kill my son. Please monitor her and make sure she can't do whatever she wants."

"Although you say so, nothing has happened now, and we can't do anything." Hearing what Nakaoka said, the old lady Shuicheng's eyes suddenly became serious.She curled her lips lightly, and popped out the words "tax thief". "It will be too late when something happens! What do the police do? We pay taxes all year round! Isn't it your job to dispatch at such a time? It's really useless!" This drastic change left Nakaoka speechless.The old lady snorted through her nose and looked away. Nakaoka scratched his hair.If you don't agree to her, I'm afraid she won't let herself go back.

"I understand. I'll tell the regional department to ask them to pay special attention to the son's house when they are patrolling." This was a completely official tone, but to the old lady who knew nothing about police affairs, it sounded like the police promised to keep her son safe.She turned around and smiled all of a sudden. "Really, thank you then. Please." The old lady nodded her thanks repeatedly.When Nakaoka said goodbye, she also handed over a package of things wrapped in half paper: "Thank you so much for coming all the way. This is my husband's favorite thing. Please eat it on the return tram." Nakaoka opened it and saw that there were two chestnut buns inside.He didn't like sweets, but it seemed rude to refuse, so he took it and did eat it on the return tram.

As soon as he returned to the police station, he reported to Narita the content of his conversation with Granny Shuicheng.The supervisor certainly didn't show any concern about it.Nakaoka asked, "Do you want to talk to the Life Safety Division and Regional Division?" Narita only replied, "It's not necessary, is it?" Three months later, the Shuicheng Granny's fears became reality, and her son died. Nakaoka put the letter back in the envelope that he hadn't reread for a long time.He looked at the news on the Internet again and shook his head slightly.What a fool.It was an accident by any measure.There is no need to take it to heart.

He reached for the instant cup and started to eat the remaining instant noodles.The noodles were so cold that in the end, he had to leave the noodles there. He suddenly remembered the chestnut buns he ate when he returned from Chofu.Chestnut steamed buns were supposed to be extremely sweet, but in retrospect, for some reason, there was a hint of bitterness.
