Chapter 40 Yaksha Falls from the Sky

Seeing Liuli leaving her place of work, Qing Qing was thinking about the great plan and the bright prospects that would come with it. The smile on her face was a little sinister. She felt so happy that she rushed into her house with a hum in less than twenty seconds.

She shouted "I'm back", kicked off her shiny round-toe leather shoes and continued to rush to her room. Qingmi Xiangzi, who was watching a prime-time TV series in the living room, turned around curiously, "Why are you back so late? Is it with Nanabahara?"

Have you held a study meeting? I left some food for you in the kitchen, go and heat it up yourself."

"I've eaten!" Qingjian Liuli said as she rushed up the stairs. She didn't have to worry about the girls at home. She ran very fiercely, very much like a little wild boar launching a pig attack.

She can no longer wait to see the case and embark on the road of "Liu Li Police".

"Wait, come back!"

Qingjian Liuli's "road to police" encountered the most ferocious obstacle before she even set foot on it. She didn't dare not listen to her mother's words. She braked suddenly and stopped, dissatisfied: "What else is there, Mom?

I'm very busy now."

Qingmi Xiangzi didn't care whether she was busy or not. Anyway, she had never seen her busy with serious things even though she had grown up. He asked directly: "Did you have dinner with Nanabahara-kun?"

"Yes, you...didn't you ask me to thank him properly? I helped him cook." Qingjian Liuli didn't want her family to interfere in her private affairs, so she was trying to find an excuse to deal with it - she couldn't say it, just in case she did.

Now, if her mother doesn't let her investigate the case, isn't it all over? Now she is only one step away from becoming a "Liu Li Police Officer"!

Qingmi Xiangzi was shocked: "Did you cook the rice?"

Qingjian Liuli hummed proudly, "Yes, I cooked it, and it's super delicious, like silver jade rice."

"It's really rare." Although Qingmi Xiangzi didn't believe that her eldest daughter could cook delicious food, she was very pleased. She felt that this was because her eldest daughter listened to her words and began to learn to take care of others. As she grew up, her voice became softer involuntarily.

Come down, "I put the bath water, go take a bath and have a good rest."

"Okay, mom." Qingjian Liuli thought for a while and then immediately added, "Qiyuan has just moved here and is not familiar with the road. I want to take him around after school these days. You see..."

"Go on, it doesn't matter if you come back later, just pay attention to your safety." Qingmi Xiangzi did not object. Nanabahara is excellent in martial arts, has a gentle personality, and has quite good personal accomplishments. If she can assimilate her idiot daughter, she will go back to her hometown immediately to fight.

I'll go back on my back to thank him.

It’s no problem for both parties, and the three parties can also discuss it, so it’s not a hassle anyway.

Seeing that Liuli's plan was successful and she got the time to participate in the investigation, Qing Qing immediately shouted "Thank you, Mom" ​​and ran upstairs. She didn't even bother to take a shower. She rushed into her room and excitedly started to read the police report.

Case brief.

…………

The facts of this case are not complicated.

Nineteen days ago, at around 10:10 in the evening, in Bonga Town in the northern part of Hirano, a man named Yuuto Matsunai was assassinated in the courtyard of his house, that is, in front of his house. He suffered severe injuries to his chest, abdomen, neck and other vital organs.

The number of knives.

When he was assassinated, his wife Matsunei Yuki, who was waiting for him to come home from work, was alerted. Matsuneyuki quickly opened the door to check and found her husband lying at the door covered in blood. She was stunned on the spot. She instinctively shouted for help and tried hard to help her husband press the pressure.

Stop bleeding from neck wounds - there are many wounds, but the blood spurts out the most and most conspicuously there.

According to her testimony, her mind went blank at the time and she was busy applying pressure to her husband's wound. She didn't notice anything else. She only remembered that her husband was holding her hand that was applying pressure to the injury when he was dying, as if he wanted to say something to her. , but couldn't make a sound. In just a few seconds, he became unconscious. He just raised his hand with difficulty and pointed at the sky before his arm fell down and he became unresponsive.

At this time, the neighbors who heard the cry for help rushed over one after another and were collectively stunned when they saw the blood on the ground.

After they came to their senses, some people called an ambulance and called the police, some wanted to rescue the dead Yuuto Matsunai, and some searched everywhere to find the assailant, but of course it was of no use and instead left the scene a mess.

Four or five minutes later, the Jiaofan patrol police arrived on bicycles and barely controlled the situation at the scene. They pulled out the isolation cord and put up warning signs. Then the search and inspection teams came to reinforce and launched an organized attack on the nearby area. A search was carried out, but nothing was found. The murderer was very cunning. He obviously planned to commit the crime and was very careful. He did not even leave any bloody footprints. It is not clear how he escaped.

The death of a person is not a small case. The Hirano Police Station set up a search headquarters overnight and tried its best to find the murderer. The only clue the police had was that "the victim pointed to the sky when he was dying". It is suspected that the murderer's name contains "Ye", Words like "sky", "sky", "star", "cloud", "moon", "bird" etc.

But after a week of searching among people known to Matsuuchi Yuuto, including homophones, pen names, stage names, nicknames, and nicknames, after repeated investigations among the dozen or so suspects found, no one was found to have a motive for committing the crime. Or there is something questionable.

This road didn't work, and the only clue didn't work. The search headquarters simply used the most primitive elimination method, and made a list of more than 70 people who had recently come into contact with Matsunai Yuuto, one by one. I searched for the motive for the crime, asked for alibi of these people, and worked hard for nearly a week to eliminate all the suspects from the list, but still not a single suspect was found.

At this time, the pressure in the search headquarters became a little low. I found that this case seemed to be very simple, but in fact it was very difficult to solve. After checking it, I didn't have any clue at all.

So, after they had repeated meetings and discussions, they turned their suspicious eyes back to Yuki Matsuchi, suspecting that she had killed her husband. After all, she was the first to find out that Yuri Matsuchi had been killed, and her body was still stained with his blood. The clue of "pointing to the sky when dying" was also provided by her. She was the only one who saw it and said it alone. Thinking about it now, it looked like she was misleading the police in their search.

This woman is very suspicious!

The search headquarters began a third round of questioning near Matsuuchi's house, going in and out of the town area to find out whether Matsuuchi Yuki had any motive for the murder and whether the relationship between the husband and wife was not as harmonious as it seemed. They also conducted multiple disguised searches. Looking for the murder weapon or other clues at the Matsunai family's house caused a lot of discussion in the neighborhood, and even myths and legends were involved - there was a local shrine dedicated to Prajna Yaksha, and local residents suspected that someone had cursed it. Yuu Matsuuchi, Yaksha fell from the sky and stabbed him to death.

It sounds a bit ridiculous at first, but you can’t help but say that Japan has never broken the Four Olds, and the local residents believe it!

According to local legends, Prajna Yaksha is a big monster that lives in the Basin River. He used to fly around at night and attack local residents or travelers. Sometimes he would seize whole cattle and sheep or capsize boats.

The locals built such a shrine and worshiped it on time, just asking it to stop doing evil and hurting others. The nature is similar to paying protection money to a gangster.

As time progressed, the urban legend of "The Curse of Prajna Yaksha" began to appear in the local area.

It is said that if you hate someone very much, you can write his name on a piece of paper, stuff it under the shrine's boundary stone, and curse him directly.

If your resentment is strong enough and the price promised is high enough, Prajna Yaksha will kill the person you want to kill.

Now, because of Matsushita Yuuto's strange behavior when he was dying (leaked during police interviews), some people have connected the cause of his death with local legends, and there are many people who believe it. Otherwise, Matsushita Yuuto cannot be explained.

With only his last breath left, why did he still point to the empty night sky? This caused a lot of discussion on the street, and some unscrupulous tabloids got involved and wrote all kinds of nonsense in the newspapers.

A lot of messy things happened, which completely angered Matsuuchi Yuki's natal family, the famous Hirano family, the Rise family. They believed that this had seriously affected the reputation of the Rise family. It was absolutely impossible for a married daughter of the Rise family to kill her husband.

, let alone appear frequently in street tabloids, requiring the police station to give an explanation. Only then was Wu Teng'an forced to intervene, preparing to give an explanation to the Rise family.

This case is different from the Odamachi District referendum case. The Rise family has a member of the House of Representatives, and there are many business people. They are rich and powerful. They have the capital and ability to keep making trouble. Unlike Yosuke Tominaga, who does not even have a victim, the case is dragging on.

No one cares.

Therefore, there must be an explanation. It doesn't matter whether the person was killed by Song Neiyue or someone else. The murderer must be found anyway.

…………

Under the desk lamp, Qingmi Ruri carefully flipped through the police case briefing and took notes carefully, really like an excellent detective assistant. Finally, she bit her pen and fell into deep thought. She stayed still for a long time, completely lost in concentration.

First of all, there was nothing wrong with the police's early judgment. Yuuto Matsunai's briefcase, wallet, watch, and wedding ring were all there. The murderer was not seeking money or getting anything back. And looking at the police's corpse examination report, it is obvious that

The murderer came out with a ruthless attack, aiming for the vital points. After Yuuto Matsuuchi fell to the ground, he also carried out a follow-up attack. He had a strong murderous intention. It was really no problem to find a suspect among his acquaintances.

But judging from the briefing, Matsuuchi Yuuto has a gentle personality, a good temper, and a clean resume. He has never made enemies with anyone. Even if he has some minor conflicts with others at work, it is far from the point where he needs to kill people.

, the police have yet to find a reasonable motive for the crime...

Secondly, according to the data given in mystery novels, 72.8% of murders are committed by acquaintances, of which 22.21% are committed by husbands killing their wives, and 20.65% are committed by wives killing their husbands. Taken together, more than half of the murders are committed by the people closest to them.

Nei Xue is indeed extremely suspicious.

However, there is also no evidence to prove that it was the wife who killed the husband.

According to the surrounding residents, Matsunai Yuki has a gentle personality, is elegant and kind, and is very helpful. Almost all neighbors who are familiar with her do not believe that she would kill her husband.

Let alone murder, I don't even believe that she can torture small animals.

Finally, if Matsuuchi Yuki is innocent and the testimony is correct, what did the victim mean by pointing to the sky before he died?

When a person is attacked with only his last breath and his consciousness is blurred, he will instinctively point out who killed him. This is no problem, but the police have already classified names with words such as "night", "sky" and "empty".

His acquaintances have been repeatedly investigated and no one was found to be suspicious. So what exactly did he want to say?

It can't be that a yaksha really fell from the sky, killed people and then flew away, right?

This is so weird, it should be the biggest mystery in this case...
