The fourth case, the role of Thallium 032, traces of the past
Although she didn't know what was going on, with the detective's intuition, she obviously felt that she was being used, so she turned her head to stare at the culprit, her eyes were cold, and asked, "What do you mean?" ”
The beautiful little princess turned her head, didn't dare to touch her line of sight, pretended to be innocent and said, "Hehe, you can ask a few people present." ”
Tadao Yokoshima said, "Huo Di, please don't blame Xing-chan, we asked her for help in this matter." ”
Huo Xiake turned his head and asked, "Can you explain?" ”
"Of course, today is actually a briefing, Huo Di, Hua Di, and Xing Jiang, please sit down first, drink some coffee, and listen to our explanation together." Tadao Yokoshima greeted.
Huo Xiake sat down with a straight face, glared at Tadao Yokoshima, with an unpolite expression, and before he could start, he suddenly asked, "Who is the murderer?" ”
Yokoshima Tadao looked surprised and asked rhetorically, "Didn't Huo Di already deduce that the murderers were Tang Chao and Hong?" ”
Huo Xiake shook his head and said, "I just made an assumption based on intuition based on the existing clues. In fact, I don't have any proof. ”
"The murderers are Tang Chao and Hong!" Tadao Yokoshima said categorically.
"What about the evidence?"
I saw Tadao Yokoshima carefully take out a box, open the lid of the box, take out a photo from it, put it on the table, and show it to everyone.
The photo is above a man and a woman, the man is elegant and graceful, and the woman has a medium face, quite temperamental, full of joy, and looks at the man slightly from the corner of her eye.
They are a couple of lovers.
And Huo Xiake happened to know these two people, who were Tang Chao and Hong and Zhuzi, the god of beauty.
Tadao Yokoshima said: "We have not been able to find any clues about Zhuzi's secret lover, presumably that person strictly forbade Zhuzi to leave any words and photos in order to keep it secret. But Zhu Zi is a woman after all, and she always wants to leave some nostalgia, so she left this photo with Tang Chao and Hong. ”
Huo Xiake asked suspiciously: "A photo doesn't mean anything. You must know that Tang Chao and Hong and the beauty god Zhuzi have a teacher-student relationship, and it is reasonable for the two of them to take a group photo in public. ”
Tadao Yokoshima said: "That's true, Zhu Zi generously placed this photo in the study along with other family and friends, and no one felt unusual. But ......"
Tadao Yokoshima flipped the photo to the back, and there was a line of numbers on it, but it was the date.
Huo Xiake raised his head and looked at Tadao Yokoshima in puzzlement.
Tadao Yokoshima explains, "The background of the photo is Mt. Tsukuba, which is intriguing in combination with the date. It was Saturday (Toyo Day), and a pair of teachers and students sneaked up on a trip to Mt. Tsukuba without telling anyone else. ”
Huo Xiake argued: "It's not uncommon for teachers and students to travel together! ”
Tadao Yokoshima continued, "None of them returned to Tokyo that night, so there was only one possibility, and that was to stay overnight in Tsukuba. Judging from the sun's point of view in the photo, it was already three or four o'clock in the afternoon when they reached the summit, and it was dark after descending, so it was very likely that they would stay at the foot of Mt. Tsukuba. So we searched all the accommodations at the foot of Mt. Tsukuba and finally found their accommodation records for the day, and they were staying in one room! ”
Lonely men and widows live in the same room, it's not normal to think about it, and the relationship between the two lovers is conclusive!
Huo Xiake continued to ask: "But this can only prove that Tang Chao and Hong and the beauty god Zhu Zi were once lovers, but it can't prove that Tang Chao and Hong are murderers!" ”
Tadao Yokoshima said: "Tang Chao and Hiroshi were very cunning, he killed Zhu Zi and poisoned Reiko, leaving almost no evidence. But in addition to killing Zhu Zi and Lingzi, he also tried to poison me! ”
Huo Xiake was surprised!
Tadao Yokoshima said, "At that time, I couldn't rent a dormitory for students at Tokyo University, so I had to rent a room outside, which was not very safe, so I was always careful about that. During the investigation of the suspect in the murder of Zhu Zi, I went out early and returned late, and when I came back one day, I wanted to open the refrigerator and get a bottle of water to drink, and suddenly realized that something was wrong. The refrigerator that came with the house I rented was very old, and if you didn't press the door tightly, it wouldn't close tightly, so that the light in the refrigerator would always be on, and it would not be obvious during the day, and at night it would be dark and rumbling, and you could see a light coming out of the crack in the refrigerator at a glance. I remember very well how the gap was exposed when I closed the refrigerator tightly when I went out during the day. Unless someone has ever opened a refrigerator. I kept an eye on it, opened the refrigerator and checked it, and found that all the mineral water had been tampered with. Although I didn't know how, out of prudence, I threw away all the mineral water. Later, Lingzi was poisoned, I came back to my senses and rummaged through the garbage, only to find a can of mineral water, and found that it was mixed with Thallium salt, and a fingerprint was found on it, which was Tang Chao and Hong's. ”
"Why didn't you hand it over to the police?"
Tadao Yokoshima smiled bitterly: "Too much time has passed, and it is impossible to prove it. In addition, at that time, Tang Chao and Hong had already begun to use their uncle's power to persecute us. ”
The Six Paths of the Underworld is still angry, and said tremblingly: "At that time, I was framed and imprisoned, and overnight, everyone treated me as a poisonous woman and avoided me, even if I was later released from prison on the grounds of insufficient evidence, my reputation was ruined. Although I hoped to find the real culprit, I had to take refuge abroad due to political pressure. ”
Huo Xiake moved his gaze to Yokoshima Tadao, who said: "I was also under pressure and had to suspend the investigation, and in addition, I also have to take care of Reiko, once something happens to me, what will Reiko do?" So I endured it, waited, waited! Wait until Shinzo Abe dies, and today we can finally take revenge! ”
Hua Jiao asked suspiciously, "Wait, I remember that Shinzo Abe passed away ten years ago, why didn't you do it at that time?" Do you have to wait until now? ”
Tadao Yokoshima said with a gentle expression on his face: "Because Reiko is still there, in January this year, Reiko passed away. She has been seriously injured by poison, and it is a miracle that she has survived until now. ”
Huo Xiake could see that Tadao Yokoshima was a man who valued love and righteousness, so he accompanied Reiko Meishen until the latter died. After the death of Reiko Meijin, he had no worries and finally began his revenge plan.
"But I don't understand what your plan is and why you want to involve us." Huo Xiake asked.
Teruhiko Hojo explained, "Although Shinzo Abe has passed away, Kazuhiro Karachio has grown into a force to be reckoned with in his own right, and he has become a member of the Diet and is extremely powerful. After all, we are a few small ordinary people, and we can't fight against them. ”
