"That's what's recorded in the transcript," Chi Feichi nodded, "I want to know how many people there are who know you, Mr. Zenan, and Miss Huang, and have a good relationship at the same time. Can you help me?"
Shall I make a list? Write down as much information as you can think of, such as name, nickname, and position."
"Is there anyone who knows the three of us at the same time and has a good relationship?" Akiko Utakakura recalled with a frown, "Mr. Zenan met when we were working as cos models. There are many similar people..."
"So, Mr. Chi, do you want to go and see for yourself? The three of them do seem to have a lot of friends in common, but Akiko is going to take leave tomorrow. I heard that she made an appointment with her friends to attend some party, and those people are also Kira's.
Friend..." Okino Yoko looked at Utagura Akiko and smiled sheepishly, "I'm sorry, because Mr. Zenan's case has attracted a lot of attention in the company, and everyone usually discusses Akiko and Kira.
I also listened to a lot of gossip."
Chi Feichi lowered his eyes and drank tea, going through the general situation of the case in his mind.
The victim in this case, Yuki Sawano, was a magazine editor by profession, and he received good manuscripts. He also used to be a playwright, so he received the invitation from Odagiri Toshiya.
The first person to discover the body, Akiko Utagura, used to be a Cos model. Because of her sweet appearance and some fan base, she was picked by the company's talent scouts and soon joined the company.
Both of them had joined THK company not long ago. If something happened, he wouldn't actually care too much. What really made him pay attention to this case was the death message of 'Kira' left by Zenan Yuhui after his death.
In addition, the two of them were related to THK Company, which made Gin nervously think about whether Zenan Yuki had discovered something, and whether the message before his death might be his code name 'Kaki'.
That person also asked him to check. If he didn't know when his tail was seen, he should clean up the person who saw the tail in time.
Afterwards, they found out that the English name "KIra" left behind by Ariuki Sawana was not the English word "KIra", but the Katakana name "キラ". He, Gin, and the other person didn't think that it had anything to do with him, but if possible, it would be best to
Find out why Zenan Youhui left a message before his death.
He discovered that someone on an online forum was discussing a model with the stage name Yahara Huang in related posts.
Yayuan Huang’s nickname is ‘Xiao Huang’, pronounced Kira.
According to Shiratori Rensaburo's investigation, one year ago, Huang Yahara was about to participate in a film and television drama adapted from the manga called "Black Magic Girl", but he suddenly passed away in an accident, and his body was never found. The adaptation of the film and television drama has also
Therefore, it was put on hold, and Masahara Huang, Utagura Akiko, and Zenan Yuki are all acquaintances.
In the comic "Black Magic Girl", the protagonist's name is also Kira. It tells the story of a girl who is resurrected after being killed and seeks revenge on the person who harmed her.
All signs indicate that Zenan Youhui's case is related to Yayuan Huang's case a year ago.
Later, he asked Shiratori Rensaburo to borrow the key to Zenan Yuhui's house and visited the scene of Zenan Yuhui's murder. The pre-death messages on the ground were still there after collecting evidence.
The more he read, the more strange he found the pre-death message of 'Kura'. The two katakana names were not side by side. キ was in the upper left corner and ラ was in the lower right corner, forming a diagonal shape. The diagonal line of キ stretched to the horizontal line above ラ.
Looking at the traces of dried blood, he could confirm that the slash of "キ" was added later.
After the blood dries, you can see the order of the strokes in which the two katakana names of "Kura" were written. It's like writing on the beach. You can tell whether a horizontal line or a vertical line is written first.
If you write 'キラ' normally, you should write キ first, and then write ラ. In this way, even if キ and ラ overlap a little, the slash of キ should be written first with the slash below, and the slash of ラ should be written last.
A horizontal line is on top, but the katakana left at the scene is exactly the opposite. The slash of キ seems to be written last.
Combined with the location of the two katakana, the original death message was probably '三' and an unknown character similar to '乛', and then a slash was deliberately added to change it to キラ.
Did Zenan Youhui do this himself?
It's unlikely. He specifically checked Zenan Youhui's previous handwriting. Zenan Youhui's strokes were written in the correct order, and there was no strange habit of adding a slash at the end. When a person is dying, he is eager to leave a message before his death.
There was no need to engage in such tricks. He had checked Zenan Youhui's recent movements and work, and there was nothing related to the unknown character Sanhe.
Zenan Yuhui was worried that after his death, the murderer would return to the scene. In order to prevent the messages before his death from being destroyed, he did this?
In this case, Korra is just a cover-up to deceive the murderer, and '三' and '乛' are the correct information hidden.
In addition, there is another possibility - the murderer or someone added a slant to mislead the police after seeing the pre-death message.
In this case, the correct information is still ‘三’ and ‘乛’.
If you want to add something to the pre-death message without being discovered due to the color difference after the blood dries, you must do it within ten minutes, and the only person who has time is Utakakura Akiko.
According to the police investigation, when Akiko Utagura found the body, Yuki Zaminami had been dead for less than ten minutes. According to Akiko Utagura’s testimony, she did not find anyone suspicious nearby that day. If Akiko Utagura hadn’t posted a message before her death,
A line was added. The murderer should have been fleeing the scene at that time, so she should have seen suspicious people near Zenan Youhui's house.
In short, there is something wrong with Akiko Utagura. Either she tampered with the information before her death, or she saw a suspicious person but did not report it. She is either a murderer, or she deliberately misled the police for other purposes, such as covering up someone.
personal.
It's impossible to use Kira to get hype. Akiko Utagura is about to debut. She has enough resources and a bright future. She doesn't need to eat steamed buns with human blood.
If you want to find out the truth, finding Utagura Akiko is a ready entry point.
Understand the situation, look for loopholes, and even look for information related to the 'Sanzu' from Akiko Utagura herself, or from related people who know Akiko Utagura and Ariuki Zeminan at the same time.
This direction of investigation is correct.
When he learned about the situation, he asked Okino Yoko to stay because he wanted Okino Yoko to 'supplement' the information he wanted. He said that he was worried that Utagura Akiko would be nervous alone. It was just an excuse.
Okino Yoko has a good relationship with the artists in the company, as well as with many people in the outside world. If you just listen to the gossip in the company, you may know the information that Utagura Akiko will deliberately hide. In addition, she has a lively personality.
Cheerful and willing to help others, whether it is helping him to ask questions or supplementing answers for Akiko Utagura, you may inadvertently allow him to obtain useful information.
And if Akiko Utagura lies about something, Yoko Okino will also behave strangely or remind her quietly.
Now it seems that letting Okino Yoko stay was indeed the right choice. Didn't this help him add an important piece of information?
He wanted to know if there were any people or things related to the "Sanzu" around Akiko Utagura. Tomorrow's party would be the best time to investigate.
"No, it's nothing..." Utagura Akiko looked up at Chi Feichi and found that Chi Feichi was just drinking tea alone. She couldn't tell what Chi Feichi was thinking, so she said as calmly as possible, "Yes, I and my friend
There will be a party. I'm not sure if everyone knows Mr. Zenan, but everyone knows Xiao Huang, because it is originally a gathering of friends and fans who miss Xiao Huang...it's not right to say that they miss him, it should be said to be a séance.
, Xiaohuang’s fans and friends have recently suspected that Xiaohuang was resurrected and killed Mr. Zenan, so they want to hold a ceremony to summon Xiaohuang’s undead and ask her personally..."
Chi Feichi temporarily put down his teacup and recalled the plot of "Detective Conan".
Speaking of séances, he remembered a case.
A group of people gathered in a mountain villa and tried to summon the ghost of a certain Cos model late at night. As a result, they met a trio of Maori plague gods who were lost, and two people died...
Could it be that case?
"Séance..."
Okino Yoko didn't expect that there were still people who believed in this kind of supernatural theory. She was a little confused after hearing this, and subconsciously looked at Chi Feichi's reaction.
She thinks that Mr. Chi should be the kind of realist who would never believe in séance games, that is, a scientific dog who is serious and rigorous and pays attention to logic... No, he is a scientific party.
It would be incredible to hear something as unscientific as ‘spirit séance’…
Huh?
Mr. Chi seemed to be thinking about something, quite seriously, so seriously... that he didn't react at all.
(—_—Ⅱ)
Is Mr. Chi listening to them?
"Isn't it weird?" Akiko Utagura heard the surprise in Okino Yoko's words, and looked down at the teacup in her hand with an embarrassed look on her face, "A person who is already in his twenties actually participates in a seance ceremony.
, but after everyone knew that Mr. Zenan left a message about Xiao Huang before his death, they all thought it would be better to give it a try..."
Okino Yoko sighed softly, "By the way, I suddenly remembered that you are two years older than Mr. Chi..."
Akiko Utagura: "..."
Sorry, she seems childish, but... Huh? Wait, Mr. Chi is younger than her?
She seemed to know something big that would shock many newcomers in the company.
The president seemed to be about ten years older than her, and Mr. Kikuto seemed to be seven or eight years older than her. She thought Mr. Chi was about the same age as those two people, but she didn't expect that Mr. Chi was still two years younger than her...
What makes Mr. Chi hang out with a president in his thirties at an age when he should be participating in campus activities and going out for sightseeing with his college classmates, and get along well with him without any disobedience?
Is this the president who is too naive, or Mr. Chi who is too precocious?
As a newcomer to the company, she really couldn't understand it.
Chi Feichi glanced at Okino Yoko and said, "I also suddenly remembered that Yoko is also two years older than me."
If you don't help supplement the information, why mention his age? Age kills!
Okino Yoko was startled. Even though she knew that Chi Feichi was deliberately retaliating against her, she still felt like her heart had been stabbed. Youyuan reminded her, "Mr. Chi, it is easy for girls to complain when they say they are older."
"You are complaining slowly," Chi Feichi looked at Utagura Akiko, "I will go to the séance tomorrow with you."
"Ah, okay..." Akiko Utagura couldn't refuse, and Chi Feichi obviously didn't give her a chance to refuse, "As long as you don't mind."
