Monday, early morning, cloudy day. Monday, early morning, cloudy day.
There was no sun in the sky, not a single white cloud was visible, and the light in the entire sky was a little dark.
It rained heavily last night and there was still water on the ground.
Outside a building on a construction site.
The sound of police sirens echoed in my ears at this moment, and the personnel in the forensics department around me were busy collecting evidence.
Flash lights flashed from time to time in the dark environment, and the corpses on the ground made the atmosphere look extremely cold.
Karasawa was currently wearing leggings and a windbreaker-type white raincoat, and was standing next to the body checking the body with Takagi.
After the case at the gymnasium, Karasawa and Ayako continued to date and go shopping, and Ayako even picked out a suit for Karasawa during the trip.
In the evening, they went to eat some delicious food and then watched a movie before the two of them parted ways.
And when I just got to work on Monday...hehe, the case came.
The body lying on the ground was that of a man in his thirties. His clothes did not look very good, and there were several obvious rips in his pants on both sides.
Karasawa opened the crack slightly and looked at it, and found that although it was a bit winding, it was still a straight line overall. It was more like a sharp blade than the damage to the pants.
Although the wounds under the clothes were not clearly visible, and Tangze and others still needed to go back and wait for the autopsy report, in addition, there were also straight wounds on the palms of both hands, which corroborated this fact.
But these wounds looked serious, but they were not fatal. The real cause of death of the body was that it fell from the rooftop of the old building next to it.
"So, the deceased was chased here by someone with a sharp knife, and then fell below..."
When he came to the rooftop, Takagi backed up and opened his palms to resist, simulating the appearance of the deceased when he was attacked, while retreating close to the edge of the rooftop.
Looking down from the rooftop, you can just see the deceased lying on the ground below.
"But there's no way to detect footprints." Tang Ze looked at the rain-soaked ground on the rooftop and said helplessly.
Although there are many forensic officers on the rooftop collecting evidence at the moment, the rain yesterday made it much more difficult to collect evidence, and it was impossible to confirm the footprints to prove whether the deceased had been on the rooftop.
After pulling the body back, Karasawa and others quickly returned to the Metropolitan Police Department and began to examine the items on the body while waiting for the autopsy information.
"There was not a penny in the deceased's wallet." Takagi looked through the wallet and guessed: "Did a robber kill someone? If so, it would be really difficult. Random and incidental robberies are too fluid."
"Don't be dissatisfied. At least you have left us something."
Karasawa took the only National Health Insurance card left in his wallet and said: "With proof of identity, at least we are not confused anymore."
Tomoyuki Otsuga, 36 years old, his address is 6-40, Kaitachikawa, Yoneka-cho.
In addition to the insurance card to prove his identity, he only had three keys on him.
However, the key has been sent for identification, and it will take time to find out where it belongs.
After the autopsy, in addition to the palms, the deceased also had stab wounds on his legs. It is currently judged that he fell from the rooftop of the building in desperation after being chased and slashed.
After the autopsy and analysis of the food in the stomach, Tangze became the focus of attention.
Salmon, beef, wakame (edible seaweed).
Apples, wheat flour (bread), milk fat (milk).
There was so much food in the deceased’s stomach, and it didn’t fit in at all!!
"Is this a guessing game?" Takagi scratched his head and said, "I really have no idea what kind of dishes these combinations can make."
Takagi is single now, he always buys food and doesn't know how to cook by himself, and Karasawa doesn't know much about neon cuisine.
So he took this information and asked a few elderly clerical women in the accounting department. In the end, he had no idea what kind of dishes these foods could be combined into.
But these were the foods the victim had eaten within two hours before his death.
After some inquiries, there was no result. Tang Ze and the two simply put the question aside and prepared to go to the address on the insurance card to check.
But when I arrived at the address and found the landlord to express my intention, I got an unexpected answer from him.
Otsuga Yuyuki moved away eleven months ago, and the house where he lives now finally found a new tenant two days ago.
According to the landlord's understanding, Otsuga Yuyuki said that he suddenly got a job as a lodging house, so he moved out of here.
"What should we do now? The residence of the deceased has become a useless clue." Sitting in the main driver's seat, Takagi asked: "Nearly a year has passed. I'm afraid Otsuga Yuyuki has no connection with this place."
"Then let's go visit Otsuga Yuyuki's family," Karasawa said.
"That's all we can do. I hope his family can provide some information." Takagi started the car and arrived at the Otsu family's residence based on previous investigations.
There was no need to mention the social rhetoric of knocking on the door, showing your ID, and indicating your intention. After the two entered the house, they started asking straight to the point.
The person responsible for receiving the two people was Otsuga Yuyuki's brother, Otsugai.
But the two didn't get much information from each other, because it was already a year since Otsuga Yuyuki called.
"My younger brother has always been a dispatched employee. About a year ago, he called and said that he had finally become a regular employee of the company."
"Then do you know which company he became a regular employee in?" Takagi asked while recording.
"He often changes jobs. He didn't say anything on the phone before, so I don't know..." Otsugai sighed: "But I really didn't expect that he would die... This was so sudden..."
"You haven't had any contact since then?"
"He didn't buy a mobile phone, he couldn't reach the phone at home, and even the place he moved to had changed."
"So, you still know about my brother's move?" Tang Ze heard this and asked, "When did you know about my brother's move?"
"After talking on the phone, we met again after that..."
This meeting was not as pleasant as expected, because Yuyuki Otsuga, who became a regular employee on the phone, was fired from the company and lost his job again.
Even the application for unemployment insurance was not smooth. It was said that the length of service and labor insurance premium were not enough to apply.
The two met because Otsuga Yuyuki wanted to ask his brother Otsuga for money.
Otsugai reprimanded his younger brother, saying that he must not be working well, and bluntly said that taking care of his hospitalized mother and his own family was already very difficult.
The two broke up on bad terms, and since then Otsugai has never seen his brother again.
