Because of the rain, the entire sky lacked the warm tones of the sun.
Standing on the rooftop, you can see that the sky in the distance is blue and white.
The sky above our heads is cold white, and the closer we get to the horizon, the more obvious the blue color becomes.
It's like a cold-toned filter has been laid on the entire city. From a distance, the entire city looks a little cold.
"My brother jumped from here..." Otsugai lay on the edge of the rooftop, looking at the scene traces and fixed lines below (Note 1)
"Well..." Takagi nodded and said, "In addition, we found a knife from the ditch next to the building."
"You mean the knife?"
"Your brother's legs and hands have marks of being cut by sharp blades."
"I know this." Otsugai looked at Karasawa and asked: "So, this knife is the murder weapon used to attack the criminal who attacked my brother?"
"Judging from the identification results, this is the knife that cut your brother, but it only has your brother's blood and fingerprints on it."
"What does it mean?"
Karasawa looked at Otsugai and explained: "We found no traces of others on the knife."
"What about the prisoner's fingerprints?" Otsugai asked urgently.
"It was not found, no, there is no such person at all." Tang Ze shook his head and said: "Your brother's fingerprints are very obvious on this knife, there are no traces of missing parts, and there is not even a trace of the texture of the gloves on it.
This is actually very unnatural, because even if you wear gloves, the blood will leave some texture or destroy the bloody fingerprints."
After all, the handle of a fruit knife is only that big, and Tomoyuki Otsuga's fingerprints are all over the handle. If another person takes the knife, whether wearing gloves or not, Tomoyuki Otsuga's fingerprints will definitely be covered and leave traces.
but none.
On the handle of the knife, Tomoyuki Otsuga's fingerprints are very clear, as if Tomoyuki Otsuga printed them on it by pinching.
Otsugai frowned when he heard this and said, "What on earth is going on?"
At this time, Karasawa spread out the book with "Medical Affairs" printed in his hand and showed it in front of Otsugai, "There are notes in this that your brother has studied hard and made."
"Illegal request for medical treatment..." Otsugai took the book, turned to the next page, and found the definitions of various wounds printed on it.
"When receiving medical compensation based on medical records, the medical compensation for wounds caused by self-defense when being attacked is different from injuries caused by oneself."
Tangze pointed to the marks of wounds on the book where he was attacked and said: "The injuries on your brother's palms and body are completely consistent with defensive injuries.
In other words, there is a high possibility that he injured himself intentionally."
"No way!" Otsugai said in shock: "Could it be that my brother... committed suicide..."
"Unfortunately, that's it." Karasawa sighed, as if he saw how desperate Otsuga Yuyuki was last night.
In the dark night, he came to the rooftop alone, scratched his arms, legs, and palms with a knife, leaving traces of being attacked, and then jumped off the rooftop...
"How is it possible!! Why!!" Otsugai couldn't accept this argument, "How could my brother commit suicide..."
"The next step is our investigation." Karasawa looked at Otsuga Ido: "Perhaps the constant despair during this year was the reason for his suicide.
In other words, he was killed by this society, and this may be his accusation."
He was able to become a regular employee, but was fired by the company after just one month.
I can't rely on my family, and my fiancée ran away.
The conditions for temporary workers are poor, with meager wages and no place to live. No matter how many times I look for a new job, I can't find one.
The qualification certificate obtained through hard study is like a fee, and no one is willing to hire him.
Abandoned by the Social Security Bureau, I was forced to embark on the path of no return of selling "names".
I was kicked out of the container where I slept peacefully, and lived in an Internet cafe day by day, consuming the remaining money.
In order to fill his stomach, he had to live a homeless life of running around every day.
The last straw for him was probably after he finished grabbing the donuts.
Not long after Karasawa and Takagi followed Otsuga Yuyuki's escape route, they arrived at the first place they had visited.
That was the apartment where Yuyuki Otsuga once lived.
According to the landlord, this rental house was lucky enough to find a tenant in the past two days.
But what is lucky for the landlord is Yuyuki Otsuga's misfortune.
The hope that had supported him through the past year was to find a new job, but even the last glimmer of hope in such a precarious life was shattered.
There was a new person living in the apartment where he previously lived, which meant that he could no longer use the mailbox there, and he could not get any news about job acceptance or rejection.
The address he needed to find a job was gone, which meant he lost the possibility of finding a new job.
All this may make him despair of life.
"Perhaps he hopes that someone can truly understand his despair."
Karasawa sighed, he and Takagi traced clues from the apartment, followed the footsteps of Otsuga Yuyuki, and watched his failure step by step into the abyss.
Finally, after a while, I returned to the apartment to get the answer.
That seems to be the starting point and the ending point of Yuyuki Otsuga's tragedy.
The case ended in suicide, and Otsugai left with a feeling of regret.
【People killed by society】
[Congratulations to the host for completing the side mission, and congratulations to the host for randomly receiving Kendo (2 years) as an additional reward!]
This time it seems that the rewards are not that good. The skills rewarded are not chosen independently but randomly.
But fortunately, the additional random bonus skill is two years of swordsmanship, which is also urgently needed for Tang Ze, and it can be said to be a huge profit!
However, although the reward this time was good, Tang Ze was not very happy.
This case is really too depressing, just like the cold blue-white sky at this moment.
He just wanted to taste it like an ordinary person, but even such a humble wish could not be realized.
People around him, and even himself, lost the courage to reach out.
No one was willing to sincerely reach out to help him, including the boss of the planning company, Goda from the construction company, Akira Yamakawa from Social Security, brothers, and lovers.
They all regarded Otsuga Yuyuki as a trouble, a burden or someone who could not be relied on, so they pushed him away and left him, leaving him slowly becoming nothing.
In the end, the cold city and the cold people's hearts made Otsuga Yuyuki choose to commit suicide in despair.
Became a person killed by society.
