"Are you telling the truth?" Gregory was sitting in an armchair, holding a watch in his hand, and said to Qianyu. "What you said makes me feel like a blind man."

"If I can get the negative, I will be more sure," Qianyu replied. "At least the image uploaded from the computer shows that there is probably something fishy about this photo."

"I'll go take a look." Gregory stood up and walked to the computer with Qianyu - the computer still stayed at the position where Qianyu was looking at it before.

"Well..." Gregory narrowed his eyes. "What you said seems to be right, and I think so too. But it takes too much time to go to the Metropolitan Police Department. We can just ask them to take a clearer photo.

Already."

...One hour later, Koenji Residence.

Officer Megure, Shiratori Rensaburo, Chiba, Gregory, Mr. Koenji, Mrs. Koenji, Spanish teacher Mauricio, and dog walker Harano were all sitting in the living room, and the atmosphere was very subtle.

"Why are you here this time?" Mr. Koenji asked. "You took my wife away last time, and now you have sent her back in despair. Do you still want to invite me to the Metropolitan Police Department?"

"Ah no, we are sorry for what happened before -" Officer Megure was interrupted by Gregory before he could finish his words of apology.

"We are here this time because we have found the murderer and the evidence that he is the murderer." Gregory said lightly. "The reason why you are all gathered here is to bring this matter to a successful conclusion."

"Then why is this kid here?" Mrs. Koenji asked towards the wilderness. "I can understand Mauricio coming, but this person shouldn't have the right to know the privacy of our family, right?"

"He is so important," Gregory snorted. "Because he is the key to everything."

"What do you mean?" Mr. Koenji's face was immediately filled with gloom, and he stared at the wilderness.

"Don't slander me!" Yuanye was startled. "I'm just a dog walker..."

"She had tetanus, so you gave her medicine, right? High-quality antibiotics from the veterinary clinic?" Gregory asked suddenly. "If you're not going to admit it yet, I want to see you.

How do you explain that we found a pair of rusty scissors in the veterinary clinic where you work that have exactly the same proportion of rust as the rust on Miss Keiko’s severed toe—perhaps you used this scissor to cut off Miss Keiko’s toe?”

"..." Yuanye was obviously thrown into confusion by Gregory's words. He paused for a moment before speaking slowly.

"She asked to cut it herself..."

"What are you talking about?" Without any warning, Mr. Koenji suddenly rose up, his old body moved as if all its energy had been exhausted, and rushed towards Mr. Harano.

"Please calm down!" Officer Megure had obviously been prepared for this. He reacted immediately and hugged Mr. Koenji together with Officer Shiratori who also reacted.

"What is going on?" Mauricio asked. "Sir, can you explain it to me?"

"I'm just a forensic examiner. It's impossible to predict things that have no evidence," Gregory spread his hands. "The real owner is here, just let Mr. Yuan Ye say no? I'll add something at the end - because

I can see that Mr. Yuan Ye sometimes doesn’t know the cause-and-effect relationship between certain things.”

"I know..." Yuanye sighed.

——————Time goes back to a week ago.

Harano and Koenji Keiko were sitting together on the balcony outside Keiko's room, while Keiko's puppy was lying lazily in Harano's arms.

"These things are left to you," Keiko handed a pile of letters to Yuan Ye. "I have told you the order of sending letters before. Just send these sealed letters to my home in this order - don't

Open it, otherwise they might find something wrong."

"Actually, you don't have to do this at all," Yuanye sighed and took the letter. "The salary of my job is pretty good. Although you don't have a job, you should be able to..."

"This little money is nothing to my parents!" Keiko said nonchalantly. "And with this money, we won't have to work for the rest of our lives."

————Return to reality briefly.

"Wait a minute," Mauricio asked. "What's the relationship between you two?"

"You two..." Mr. Koenji took a few deep breaths to calm down his anger. "What is the relationship between you and my daughter?"

"The reason why we planned this kidnapping was to provide sufficient funds for our subsequent elopement."

"This is impossible..." Mauricio murmured. "Wait a minute... Keiko and I have been dating for a long time!"

"What!?" Mr. Koenji looked at Mauricio with an incredulous expression. "How could you do this!? I invited you here to be Keiko's teacher, not her husband!"

"Keiko and... you?" Yuan Ye was also dumbfounded. "What on earth is going on?"

"You were fooled, Mr. Dog Walker," Gregory said leisurely. "According to our investigation, we confirmed that Miss Keiko had obtained the apostille certification (used to certify the authenticity of the application materials) from our country's The Hague office a week ago.

.So we think Miss Keiko is ready to elope to Chile with Mr. Mauricio next week.”

"What?" Yuan Ye was shocked.

"But," Officer Megure suddenly thought of something. "Mr. Harano, you just said... Miss Keiko and you planned a plan to kidnap Miss Keiko herself?"

"Yes, Miss Keiko directed and acted in this kidnapping case." Gregory nodded. "And I have evidence."

"What evidence?" Mr. Koenji asked. "I need ironclad proof."

"Okay," Gregory nodded. "Do you still remember the photo of Miss Keiko's kidnapping attached to the letter? I asked Officer Megure to develop an enlarged version of the photo and brought it over. Now please follow me.

"

With that said, Gregory stood up and motioned for everyone to follow him.

…Koenji Residence, Miss Keiko’s room.

"Check the specific location." Gregory stood in the room, handed the photo he got from Officer Megure to Qianyu, and ordered.

"Okay," Qianyu nodded, then looked at the photo and the scenery in Keiko's room. "Hmm -"

A few seconds later, Qianyu walked to Miss Keiko's bed, climbed up, and finally knelt down somewhere on the bed. "This should be the spot."

"Officer," Gregory gestured to Officer Memu. "The Polaroid I want, give it to that kid."

Chiba took the camera from Officer Megure, took the camera, took a selfie of herself kneeling on the bed, and handed the spit-out photo to Gregory along with Miss Keiko's kidnapping photo.

"Look," Gregory glanced at the photos and then showed the two photos to everyone. "Are there any similarities?"

When the two photos were put together and compared, everyone became aware of Gregory's so-called evidence.

At the edge of Miss Keiko's kidnapping photo, the room setting revealed is exactly the same as the photo taken by Qian Yu!

"The corner of the floor-to-ceiling window in the upper left corner and the corner of the oil painting in the upper right corner are exactly the same as the location of the photo this guy just took." Gregory was obviously very satisfied with the expressions on everyone's faces. "Please note that the autopsy results showed that Keiko

The time of death of the young lady was the early morning of yesterday, and the kidnapping photos of Miss Keiko were taken during the day (after all, the letter was sent during the day, so the kidnapping photos taken during the day must be used to be credible), unless there is a replica of this room.

Otherwise, Miss Keiko, who was still missing when it got dark and was killed before dawn, would never have been able to take such a daytime photo."
