Chapter 36 first quarter

The reason why the Onizuki Police Department took over the investigation of the case was not because his ability was highly recognized, but because he happened to have no case in hand.When the investigation of the search headquarters fell into a stalemate, the senior police came up with an idea: Should we find someone else to re-investigate the whole case from another angle?The Metropolitan Police Department often uses this method when the nature of the case is inconsistent with the nature of Chief Xuan, who directed the search of the headquarters. In this case, the work of the Onitsuki Police Department is completely undisclosed.In order to save some face for the newly appointed Director Xuan of the police department, even if Gui Guan's investigation is successful, this achievement still does not belong to him.But even so, Guiguan will not feel any unhappiness in his heart, because he is a person who takes this matter very lightly.Perhaps it can also be said that the high-level executives chose him because of his fancy.

Oniguan Police Department started its investigation on June 25th, which is the month before the end of the first case.He only selected Dana as his assistant, and after assigning other criminal police officers to other offices, he sat down at the table and began to slowly review the investigation reports from the case so far, and read the numerous reports from beginning to end. Tick ​​and mark the important places, and write down the places where the investigation is insufficient or the suspicious actions of the suspects in a concise note. For example, although Mrs. Nishiwata's feet are inconvenient and unable to kill her husband, she may entrust others to do it.Guiguan felt that the investigation so far was not thorough enough on this point, so he immediately sent Dana to the countryside of Heiji, Chengmu County to investigate, and asked him to submit a detailed report about Ruozhu's mother and daughter.Although it was unfortunate that it was raining on the day of the business trip, Dana still went all over the dirt roads in the countryside to investigate. After getting covered in mud, he finally found out that the dead Tsuruko Wakataketa was a man who had never been to other than his hometown and Tamagawa, Tokyo. Simple women elsewhere.At the same time, I also got back the transcript of Wakatake Hisako's household registration, proving that Kosuke Nishinomata did not let her recognize her ancestors.When it was confirmed that the little girl was not naturalized in the Nishi no Hata family, the suspicion of widowhood was also cleared.

Of course, the alibi of each suspect when the president and Chita were killed must also be clarified after actually interviewing each witness. For example, Onitsuke sent Dana to the Miyahara yard dormitory in Osaka, and there was no schedule for the visit. , The captain of the "Nihonkai" crew, who is resting, reconfirmed the alibi of Koinokubo and others. Next, Onimuki's investigation became even more detailed—although Koinokubo and Narumi had no motive to kill Chita Hanping, no matter how they thought about it, Onimuki still pursued the alibi of the two of them on the 14th. He finally showed a satisfied expression when it was confirmed that the two were still sitting on the train that crossed the line at the time of the crime.

After eight days of self-examination and investigation, only the following two questions remained on the sieve of Guiguan. 1. What did Toshio Murase notice?He said his discovery was important enough to shake the foundations of the Nishi no Hata case. 2. Gosuke Nishinomata went to the rental warehouse twice, what exactly did he do? "Danna, what are your thoughts on these two issues? After thoroughly analyzing the mysteries that emerged in this case, they can be condensed into these two issues." Onigiri Police Department put aside the pencil in his hand and asked Dana, a short and hard-working detective.The other raised his swarthy face from the newspapers spread out on the table.During the eight days of investigations, Dana's already dark skin became even darker from the sun.

"Are you asking me? I've been paying attention to what Murase said just now, so I'm flipping through old newspapers." After Murase had a car accident in Ginza 4-chome, the ambulance rushed to the hospital in Tsukiji for treatment.An artery in his neck was cut in half, a life-threatening injury that prevented him from being interrogated at the bedside. After the police asked the ins and outs of the incident from Narumi Kou who was in the same car, they found that Murase was related to the Nishinohata case.After Dana heard the report, he wanted to use his own power to find out what Murase had discovered.

"I called the voice actor's home and asked them to tell me which newspaper I usually subscribe to. He said that when he was watching the newspaper on the radio to kill time, he got an important hint that could solve the mystery. So I Exclude the newspapers he reads at home, and read all the newspapers he might read on the radio. But I still don’t know what he found in the news reports.” Dana said. "Yeah, hope he recovers soon and answers our questions." "It's just that he has little hope of being rescued. The recent cars should have tempered glass, but people sometimes make impulsive decisions and make wrong decisions."

Dana said with dark eyes. "Since there is no way to expect the voice actors to wake up, we have no choice but to investigate from other directions. However, regarding the second question, that is, why President Xizhi Ban needs to go out of the rental warehouse twice, I think it is necessary to further investigate. Investigate this thoroughly." Onitsuke Police Department waited for Dana to nod in agreement, and then continued: "The search headquarters' view on this point is very simple. President Nishi-no-hata did go to the vault twice, but he was sure that the first time he must be a Wouldn’t it be too hasty to take something out of the vault and return it the second time?”

Dana responded vaguely.He is very clear about Gui Guan's personality, Gui Guan is the kind of person who will examine everything carefully.But even so, he still couldn't figure out what was wrong with the idea of ​​searching the headquarters for a while. "The only fact we know is that he went to the bank's basement twice." "That's it." "The headquarters only made one hypothesis, but I can make at least four hypotheses. No, depending on the idea, the number may be even more." "so……?" "If you write it in a more understandable way, it will look like this."

He picked up a pen and jotted down the following hypothesis: (1) The first time you go to the bank to get it out, and the second time you go to the bank to return it. (2) To get out the first time, and to get something else out the second time. (3) Put it in for the first time and take it out for the second time. (4) Put it in for the first time, and put something else in it for the second time. "I see. From what you said, there are indeed many possibilities." "The possibilities are not limited to these." The Guiguan Police Department looked at Dana with a headache on his face, and continued talking.

"For example, assumption (1), strictly speaking, can also be divided into two situations, right? When he opened the vault for the first time, he took a out, but when he opened it for the second time, he could put a back, but he could also put something completely different b in it." "yes." "Assumption (three) is the same. When he opened the vault for the first time, he put a in it, but when he opened the vault for the second time, he may go to get back a, or, instead of taking a, he took another something b." "……I see." "More than that. If we only enumerate all the possibilities, he may just open the door of the vault twice, but he didn't take anything out, or he didn't put anything in. In addition, he may also need to It makes people think that he has been to the rental warehouse, so he did this kind of thing."

Dana couldn't understand Guiguan's thoughts.Indeed, if we divide this matter into multiple situations, we can make various assumptions, but in this way, it becomes classification for classification. "That's right." The Oniguki Police Department seemed to be aware of Dana's thoughts, and he said with a serious expression: "Actually, I just want to point out that the observation and reasoning of the headquarters are a bit sloppy. In other words, I think they may have missed something when they investigated the rent pool. .Of course I can't be sure that they must have missed something, but after reviewing the whole case, I found that there is still doubts about the rent pool, so I think we need to re-investigate this point." Dana agrees with Guiguan's idea of ​​investigating the rental library again.The two decided to leave in the afternoon. They first asked lawyer Kugu to be present to witness, and got in touch with Showa Bank.
