Chapter 138 There are three suspects as accomplices~
"Associate...accomplice?"
Aida Yan was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered Otsuka Takeru's age and figure: "Mr. Otsuka Takeru, now fifty-two years old, should still be considered in his prime; moreover, he is tall and tall, and his physique does not look good.
Weak, it’s not impossible for him to commit crimes alone, right?”
"That's true. However, the police can't conclude that there are no accomplices, can they?"
Koshimi Nanatsuki said with a smile: "What if there are really other criminals in this serial murder case, and Otsuka Takeru committed suicide this time. If one person can resist all crimes, the accomplices will be free, and they may continue to commit crimes in the future.
of……"
"That's right." Aida Yanichi nodded seriously, "Then immediately launch an investigation into the people in the villa!"
After a pause, Aida Hikoichi held his chin again and continued: "Well... By the way, since there may be an accomplice, Mr. Otsuka Ken may have been persuaded by the accomplice to write a suicide note and voluntarily bear the crime alone...
"
"After all, the sheet that wrapped the body belonged to Mr. Otsuka Ken. Knowing that he could not escape, Otsuka wanted to protect his accomplices and it was possible for one person to bear all the crimes. Therefore, everyone in the villa, nine o'clock four
The alibi between fifteen and ten twenty also needs to be verified..."
As for Shu Yunwen, he squinted his eyes slightly at this time.
Before this, he really had never thought about accomplices. However, judging from the current situation, the possibility of accomplices cannot be ruled out!
but……
Shu Yunwen turned his head and scanned the villa staff in the living room one by one - to be honest, he really didn't have the ability to identify who the murderer was.
Thinking about it in his mind, Shu Yunwen suddenly said: "If you want to suspect that there are accomplices among these people, first of all, there are two people who should be able to rule out the suspicion. Asai Zhenren and Asai Liuli's couple came to this villa not long ago
As a servant, I believe that even if Otsuka Takeru wanted to find an accomplice, he wouldn't find two new servants, right? Moreover, the earliest case of this serial murder case can be traced back to three years ago.
Otsuka Ken's accomplice should be someone who has worked in this villa for a long time."
"Well, that's true."
Koshizui Nanatsuki nodded, and then saw another servant raising his hand: "Well... I just came here two months ago..."
"Two months...then you can also be called a newcomer?" Aida Yanichi frowned, and then asked other servants, "Then, who else among you has come to work in the villa in the near future?"
"I, I was three months ago."
"Me too two months ago."
"..."
Several more servants raised their hands.
"...So, you three are the only ones left in the end?" Aida Hikoichi looked at the three people in front of him, "You are the only three who have been working in the villa for a long time. Mr. Kotani, the butler,
And you two...can you please introduce yourselves?"
"You, you are suspecting that I am an accomplice? How could I do something like that?" A fat man with the smell of green onions on his body looked horrified, "My name is Fukuda Sanji, and I am the chef of the villa.
I have been working in the villa for six years..."
"My name is Yamamoto Tomoe. I am the gardener in the villa. I have been working in the villa for five years..." Yamamoto, who had a pungent smell on his body, spoke in a low voice, his eyes not looking good.
"Can I ask where you were and what you were doing between 9:45 and 10:20?" Aida Hikoichi asked.
Fukuda Sanji immediately said: "I have been preparing lunch in the kitchen since half past nine - because Mr. Butler said that there are a lot of guests in the villa today, so lunch will take more time. By the way, I also prepare it
I bought beef and made my favorite curry. I believe the guests will also like it..."
"vomit……"
After hearing Fukuda Sanji's words, Shu Yunwen and other guests suddenly had a bad look on their faces——
Damn! Who the hell wants to stay here for lunch? And, who the hell wants to eat meat?
Tomoe Yamamoto spoke in a low voice, "I have been preparing flower fertilizer in the warehouse from nine-thirty to ten-thirty."
"Excuse me, do you have any evidence?" Aida Yanichi asked.
"No, I'm the only one in the kitchen all the time..." Fukuda Sanji said.
Yamamoto Tomoe also said: "I am the only one in the warehouse."
"In this case, it is possible that both of you entered the crime scene between 9:45 and 10:20 and persuaded Mr. Otsuka Takeru to commit suicide..." Aida Hikoichi looked serious.
.
"But...how could I do something like that?" Fukuda Sanji shook his head, his face covered with sweat.
As for Yamamoto Tomoe, he remained silent.
Aida Hikoichi turned to look at Kotani Renzo again: "In addition, Mr. Butler, I remember that although you took us to the beach, you returned to the villa with Mrs. Asai afterwards, right?"
"That's true. However, I did not kill the master..." Jiagu Rensan said quickly.
Asai Ruri also said: "Mr. Police Officer, after Mr. Butler and I arrived at the villa, we looked at the clock in the living room. It was 10:12, and it was only eight minutes before your police arrived..."
"Eight minutes..." Aida Hikoichi frowned, "Eight minutes is indeed too hasty."
"However, even so, as a housekeeper who has worked in the Lavender Villa for seventeen years, you are still the most likely accomplice of Mr. Otsuka Ken!" Aida Hikoichi still looked suspicious.
As for Kabutani Renzo, he waved his hands and said: "How could I do that kind of thing?"
At this time, a forensics officer who was investigating Ken Otsuka's room came over and reported: "Officer Aida, we just searched the master's room carefully and found nothing."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Well... Let's conduct a more detailed search." Aida Yanichi ordered, "In addition, by deploying some police forces, we also need to conduct a simple search of the housekeeper, chef, and gardener's rooms.
I believe the three of you won’t object to the search, right?”
Aida Yanyi stared at the three people with an attitude of "Whoever opposes is the murderer."
"We understand." Jiagu Rensan and the others reluctantly agreed.
The police took Koutani Renzo and the three of them away to search their room, and Koshimizu Nanatsuki followed curiously.
Not long after, the search of the rooms of Jiagu Rensan and the three of them was over, and the police came back with three more people, but apparently nothing was found.
As for Koshizu Nanatsuki, he walked to Shu Yunwen strangely: "Shu Sang, don't you need to take a look at the rooms of the three of them?"
"No need!"
Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes——
What's that for? He's not a detective.
Sonoko asked Koshizui Nanatsuki with some curiosity: "Miss Detective, have you discovered anything?"
"Uh... there are some, but they are just trivial matters and may not be of any help to the case." Koshizui Nanatsuki frowned, "From my observation, Kotani Renzo's living habits should be the best. The room is very
It’s neat, and the housekeeper is probably left-handed. I looked at his calendar, and there were traces of the handwriting on it being rubbed a little to the right..."
“Chef Fukuda Sanji’s room is very clean and the furnishings are simple. I feel like he is a well-behaved person.”
"As for Mr. Yamamoto, the gardener... there is a foul smell in his room and it is very messy. There are many messy things piled under the bed..."
"That's it..." Yuanzi said with an attitude of "I am a detective", "The master's accomplice has been identified, and it must be the gardener! Because his room has a foul smell and is very messy. In fact, that
It's hiding other smells! As long as you search carefully, you can definitely find the secret compartment in his room, and then find the victim's little finger that was cut off!"
"Ah?!~" Koshimizu Nanatsuki looked surprised, "The victim's little finger?"
"Yes, yes!" Yuanzi nodded fiercely, "Isn't it like this in TV, movies, and novels? Those perverted murderers, after killing someone, will hide certain parts of the body as their own collection.
The bodies of the victims in the ocean even had their little fingers cut off..."
"Have the little fingers of all the corpses been cut off?" Nanatsuki Koshimizu had just heard Sonoko talk about the corpses without little fingers. She couldn't help but look thoughtful. She had always thought that the eighteen corpses had no common criminal characteristics.
, "But although the gardener's room is very messy, if you tidy it up, it will be clear at a glance, and it doesn't seem like there is any hidden compartment..."
"...However, now I want to go to the beach to see the remains of the victims..."
Shu Yunwen stood up: "Just right, let's go together!"
"Does Lord Yunwen also want to see the body of the victim?" Yuanzi was curious.
Shu Yunwen rolled his eyes: "What's so interesting about those corpses? I want to remove spirits! Remove spirits!"
After a pause, Shu Yunwen continued: "It's almost noon now, which is the time when the yang energy is the strongest. It's easiest to clean up those evil spirits now."
"Ah! How about removing spirits? Then I must go see it!" Yuanzi looked excited.
As for Koshimi Nanatsuki, his face turned into a "hehehe" expression——
Yes! This person seems to have said before that he is a spiritual master.
He's obviously supposed to be a detective, but he's pretending to be an exorcist. This is really weird...
