Yue Er on the side is still chattering endlessly. At this moment, the two of them have changed from when they were children to when they were in junior high school.
Seeing that he was about to enter high school, Tang Ze quickly interrupted his soliloquy and asked: "Yue Ersang, you live in Room 2415 on the 25th floor, right? I don't know if you were there during the time of the crime.
do what?"
"Ah...I didn't have an alibi at that time. On the night when the old man was killed, I was writing songs alone in my room.
But I didn’t kill anyone! How could my brother and I kill anyone? You must have made a mistake!!"
As expected, after questioning Yue Er, we found nothing, and the other party also had no alibi.
"It's troublesome, the two brothers must already know who the culprit is." Takagi scratched his head, "If I haven't done it myself, then the other party must have done it, and he must be protecting the other party.
It's even possible that two people committed the crime together, but as long as we can't confirm who is the culprit, we can't arrest them."
"Let's ask Miss Natsuki first, maybe we can get something out of it."
……..
"I still can't believe it. It turned out to be one of Yoichi and Yue Er who killed Saburo..." Natsuki burst into tears as she spoke, "Sanrou treats the two of them as his own sons..."
"Excuse me, Miss Natsuki, you lived in Room 2610 on the 26th floor yesterday, right next door to Mr. Su Xin?"
Tang Ze comforted him and asked, "No matter how subtle it is, was there anything unusual last night?"
"No... nothing special..." Natsuki Sayuri thought for a moment and shook her head: "Yesterday, Saburo, Yoichi, and Yueji and I finished dinner around nine o'clock in the evening.
Afterwards, because Saburo had a serial article to write in a monthly magazine, I went back to the room... But I didn’t expect that to be the last time I saw Saburo..."
Saying that, Natsuki Sayuri couldn't help but burst into tears. It was too tragic for a woman who was about to get married to lose her lover just before the wedding.
And these are the three people related to the case, and the suspects have been narrowed down to two.
The elder brother Yoichi has a peaceful and quiet personality, and the younger brother Yueer has his own way of doing things. One of the two brothers with perfect personalities is definitely a criminal.
"There is nothing we can do. Let's go back to the crime scene again." Tangze frowned and said thoughtfully, "I always feel like something has been missed."
Tang Ze and Officer Takagi once again took the elevator to the 26th floor where the deceased was killed. However, this time they did not rush to the crime scene as quickly as before, but Tang Ze made a different discovery.
Not far from the elevator, there is a pot of flower arrangement composed of lavender and miscanthus. Although it is a bit strange, the style is very beautiful. Needless to say, it is also Yue Mengliu's flower arrangement.
"Officer Takagi, were the sunflowers you were looking for placed in the same location on the 25th floor?" Karasawa asked, pointing to the flower arrangement not far away.
"Ah, yes, I asked someone. The sunflowers at the crime scene were the flower arrangements placed on the 25th floor, and they were probably placed in the same position." Although Takagi didn't know why, he still answered.
"This is strange...why didn't the murderer use the pot of flowers on the twenty-sixth floor, but deliberately went to get the sunflowers?" Tangze touched his chin and said in deep thought.
"But it's quite strange. I don't know if there is any intention in it." Takagi agreed upon hearing this.
"Forget it, don't think about it anymore, let's go to the escape tunnel."
The two came to the escape passage again. When they opened the door, the strong wind roared, making it difficult for Tang Ze to push it open.
After all, this is the height of the twenty-sixth floor, so there will naturally be strong winds.
"Officer Takagi, please go to the place where the body fell."
Returning to the crime scene again, the first thing Karasawa thought of was the testimony about fingerprints after the forensics class collected evidence, so in order to verify the reasoning, Karasawa asked Takagi to cooperate.
"Eh?"
Takagi turned his head when he heard this, but saw Tang Ze frowning in thought. He shook his head helplessly and walked straight down.
When Takagi stood at the spot where the deceased had fallen, Karasawa, who was standing there, could not see Officer Takagi at all.
"You really can't see it..."
In this spiral stairwell, there is a turning platform in the middle of each staircase, and this platform just forms a blind spot with the platform of the escape door.
And this happens to be the place where the deceased's body was laid out. If you don't go down a few stairs, you won't be able to look like the victim!
The manner of death of the deceased is also very concerning. Although he was stabbed in the back of the neck, it was not the direct cause of death, but death from blood loss caused by continuous bleeding within the next hour.
"Wait a minute? So the murderer is...?"
Tangze frowned and pondered, but he had more doubts in his heart, "What on earth did I overlook...Why did the murderer take such unnatural actions...?"
For a moment, Tang Ze seemed to be in a dead end. He had a premonition that if he collected the last fragments, he would directly break the big wall in front of him!
But before that, I felt like I was outside the door at the end of the maze, but I didn't have the key to open the door in my hand.
As I pondered like this, time passed unknowingly into the afternoon.
"Hey, Karasawa, have you found anything?" Seeing Karasawa meditating for several hours in the hotel lobby, Takagi asked with expectation.
"There are some, but there are still a few clues, clues that connect everything together." Tangze stood up and moved his body, which was stiff after sitting for a long time.
"I still haven't studied enough." Tang Ze sighed helplessly: "If I had enough ability, I'm afraid this case would be solved soon..."
"Let's go, go eat first, think about it later." Takagi said with relief: "No one can do anything about this situation, don't put too much pressure on yourself."
"Eating? So early?" Tang Ze asked doubtfully: "It's only almost six o'clock now, right?"
"Ah, it was Miss Natsuki who invited us to dinner." Takagi explained with some embarrassment: "She said that she had made an appointment with Mr. Naishin to have dinner tonight, but who knows... Miss Natsuki was not in the mood to eat either.
.
Because the ingredients are all freshly imported, there is no way to cancel the reservation. She saw that we were busy working on Mr. Xin’s case and told us to accept it..."
"Officer Takagi, this seems to be a little out of order..." Tang Ze said helplessly: "We are still handling the case, accepting treats from relevant people..."
"That's what I said too..." Takagi said with a bitter face when he heard this: "But the waiters have started to serve the food... It will be difficult if we don't go..."
So, you, a good old man, really don’t know how to refuse!!
