Chapter 1574 On-site Investigation
As Xiangyue City walked toward the middle of the suspension bridge, a strong wind suddenly blew in the mountains.
The hat on Sayoko's head was blown off by the strong wind, and in the photo she subconsciously leaned forward again to grab the hat.
But she ignored the environment she was in. Half of her body was already outside and she leaned forward again. Her whole body was off the ground and lost her balance. When the wind blew her whole body, she fell down.
I immediately called to request rescue, but by the time the local situation and the rescue team arrived at the scene, he was actually already dead.
"I didn't kill Sayoko, it was an accident!"
After recounting the events and consequences of that day, Xiang Yuecheng looked at Tang Ze with a sincere look on his face: "I did not kill her, and I think the only one who can prove this is you, Tang Ze Criminal."
Having said this, Xiangyue Chengyi lowered his head and said, "Please, please."
"I already know the situation, and I will conduct an overall investigation of the evidence in the case before the public trial."
Tang Ze looked at Xiang Yuecheng and said, "But one thing I want to make clear in advance is that all my investigations will follow the evidence.
Even if the results of my investigation and appraisal go against Mr. Xiangyue’s original intention, I will still submit the appraisal report in the end.”
Karasawa's words made Yamazaki Tomei's expression slightly change, but Xiangzuki Joichi on the other side of the room was stunned for a moment and then laughed.
"Sure enough, leaving it to you is the right choice."
Xiangyue Chengyi looked at Tang Ze with a smile and said seriously: "No matter what it is, as long as it is relevant, let's say it fairly.
This is the spirit that judgment should have.”
"It's a good realization. You really deserve to be a well-known lawyer."
Koshizui Nanatsuki said with admiration in his eyes: "I am somewhat convinced now that you are innocent. Leave the follow-up investigation to us."
"Please." Xiangyue Chengyi smiled slightly, nodded and looked at each other with Yamazaki Tomei, and then said goodbye to the three of them and left.
After that, Tomi Yamazaki stayed directly in Kyoto to prepare for the court session, while Karasawa and Nanatsuki Koshimizu took the car back to Tokyo.
"Senior, I got the newspaper you wanted."
Nanatsuki Koshizui handed one of the newspapers to Karasawa, pointing to one with interest: "Read this report."
"The murdered Xiao Yezi was the daughter of a consortium, and the reason why his firm was able to open was all because of the support of his family."
After reading the newspaper, Tang Ze said: "No wonder the criminals in Kyoto have such an attitude.
In the absence of other suspects, Ms. Sayoko's death is most beneficial to lawyer Xiangyue."
"Yes, and the motivation is not small."
Nanatsuki Koshizui held up another newspaper and said: "Look at this, although Lawyer Xiangyue is quite active on TV, her law firm's operations are running at deficits and the debt it owes is quite large."
"There is also talk that the couple is not on good terms, and the woman revealed that she has made up her mind to divorce."
Tangze said: "If the divorce really happens, Lawyer Xiangyue will not only lose her firm and house, but she will also have to bear a huge amount of debt."
"In other words, in order to avoid the loss of these interests, killing Sayoko has become the best way." Tangze said.
"The motivation is sufficient."
Koshizui Nanatsuki said: "In fact, he was indeed the biggest beneficiary of his wife's death.
If this information is true, it’s no wonder that Kyoto has identified Lawyer Xiangyue as the murderer.”
"Even so, we must treat this information objectively during the investigation."
Tangze said: "Follow-up work must be carried out scientifically."
"Understood. Then when the evidence is sent from Kyoto tomorrow, we can start the investigation."
Speaking of the Koshimizu Nanatsuki, she looked eager to try it out. It was obvious that there had been no challenging cases for her to handle in the recent period, so she couldn't hold it in any longer.
Of course, no matter how eager you are to try, there is definitely no possibility of taking any action today.
Because the evidence from Kyoto has not been handed over yet, even if you want to investigate, it is impossible.
It was night after the two of them returned to Tokyo. Karasawa randomly found a ramen shop nearby and filled the five viscera temple before going home.
Early the next morning, boxes of evidence were brought over by Tomi Yamazaki and a scientific researcher from Kyoto.
Obviously, this lawyer was afraid that Kyoto would delay the handover of the evidence, so he personally urged Kyoto Science and Technology to hand over the evidence as soon as possible.
After the other party said goodbye, Tang Ze gathered people to start organizing the distribution of physical evidence and summarizing the intelligence.
Fingerprint and footprint investigation reports.
There is also a CD card that was originally a video recording wild birds, but accidentally recorded scenes of the crime.
In addition, there were also the clothes worn by the defendant on the day of the incident, the buttons of which were missing.
After reading the records, Karasawa found that the Kyoto forensic examiner's judgment was that the victim Sayoko grabbed the clothes of the defendant Xiangzuki Joichi, which caused the second button of the defendant's clothes to fall off.
This is also extremely unfavorable evidence against Xiangyue Chengyi.
In addition, according to the judicial autopsy records issued by the local government, Karasawa confirmed Aso after reading the autopsy report.
There were also blood samples and skin fragments found in the nail of the index finger of the victim's right hand.
According to the investigation in Kyoto, this DNA is consistent with the defendant Xiangzuki Joichi.
"That is to say, the victim was injured when he caught the defendant."
Hearing this, Nanatsuki Koshizui pondered: "It's no wonder that Yamazaki said that the evidence provided by the Kyoto police was all investigated in the direction that lawyer Xiangzuki was the murderer.
Judging from the evidence collected at the scene, it is indeed correct that these evidences point to Lawyer Xiangyue as the murderer."
"But Kyoto has not launched an investigation in the direction of "Xiangzuki Joichi is not the murderer." This is why Ms. Yamazaki thinks it is unfair."
Tangze said: "That's why she entrusted us."
"But looking at the current evidence, our investigation may unconsciously be biased towards the conclusion that the other party is the murderer."
Koshizui Nanatsuki said and handed the photo in his hand to Karasawa: "This is the photo of lawyer Xiangyue's arm when he was detained. There are several long scratches on it.
Combined with the fact that the button on Lawyer Xiangyue’s chest fell off that day, at least Ms. Sayoko and Lawyer Xiangyue had a dispute on the mountain.”
"It seems like this is the most likely possibility, but our job is to find out all possibilities, or eliminate factors, and determine that there is only one possibility."
As Tangze spoke, he rummaged through the cardboard box and quickly found a stack of photos: "This is a photo from the surveillance camera of Shuiyueshan (fictional). The shooting time was exactly 3 p.m. on the day of the incident."
"That's this photo!" Nanatsuki Koshizui looked at the photo in Karasawa's hand and said, "When the news media reported it at that time, they all used this photo."
The entire photo was taken from an elevation angle, making it look like it was diagonally underneath the bridge.
