Amidst mourning, the funeral ended. Tang Ze and others watched each other send away the guests. When the mourning hall was empty and only he was left, they came to visit.
"Is there anything else you can do?" Yoneno Takaaki looked unhappy after seeing the three people: "Today is a funeral."
"Yes, that's why I came here to ask you specifically what it feels like to kill your own wife." Tangze got straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth.
After hearing what Karasawa said, Yoneno Takaaki laughed angrily as if he had heard something funny: "I killed my wife? What you said is really strange, and I have to wonder if you are here to cause trouble!"
"
"Is it strange?" Karasawa looked at Yoneno Takaaki and said, "Our random speculation also finds it strange.
But although it is strange, it is not without reason."
"Then tell me and see."
Yoneno Takaaki sneered: "Although I think you are just doing useless work."
provocative.
This is a most straightforward provocation.
Although Yoneno Takaaki's last words seemed to express his dissatisfaction, they were actually like a secret provocation.
It was like telling the three of them, "I know you suspect me, but I don't think you have any evidence that can pin me down."
"Then let me talk about my suspicions first." Karasawa looked at Yoneno Takaaki and said, "The first thing is the contents of the suitcase."
"I only put that kind of thing there occasionally." Yoneno Takaaki said impatiently.
"Then why did you lie again? You said it was dirty clothes or something." Miwako Sato asked.
"I just saw it wrong, it was mixed with those dirty clothes."
Yoneno Takaaki took two steps with his hands behind his back, looked at Miwako Sato and said, "Is there anything else suspicious besides this?"
"And that toilet seat." Takagi looked at the other party's "arrogant" attitude and said angrily: "Your wife kept sitting on it, and the toilet broke down.
Have you already done some tricks and set up mechanisms before?
In other words, it is a timing device, and with the constant pressure on your wife, one day your wife will eventually get stuck in the toilet and cannot get out."
"Ha, there is no basis." Yoneno Takaaki sneered: "If there are cracks on the toilet seat, how could my wife not notice it?
She is an adult after all, and she still has the most basic common sense, and if it breaks when she sits down, there will definitely be a sound."
"Then maybe your wife really didn't notice?" Tangze asked with a smile.
"Why?" Yoneno Takaaki sneered: "It's not convincing at all to find fault in the egg."
"No, if you didn't feel anything, wouldn't it be written on the door inside the bathroom? "This is the toilet at home, don't let the water run until you use it."
After Tangze finished retelling, he smiled and said: "In other words, your wife must have a habit. If I had known, she would have kept the water in until she went to the toilet.
In other words, it is most likely that your wife cannot hear the sound of the toilet seat cracking because of the sound of water flowing.
I'm afraid you took advantage of this to keep the technique from being discovered before it was completed."
"It's just baseless nonsense." Yoneno Takaaki said expressionlessly: "If there is no substantial evidence, please take it back.
Today is the death anniversary of my wife, and I am not in the mood to play boring detective games with you here."
"No, there's another one."
Tang Ze took out an investigation record from his arms as he spoke: "When you were on a business trip, you made a lot of phone calls to your home, right?
We have investigated this, please see here."
Karasawa handed it to Takagi to unfold, then pointed to the call record on it and said: "We found out that the 15th of the previous month was the night you went to Treasure Island.
During the four days until the 19th, you kept calling home from Baodao.
But unfortunately, all the calls were not answered from beginning to end.
And from then on, during the three weeks following your business trip, you never made a single phone call home.
Can you tell me why this is?"
Karasawa looked at the solemn-looking Yoneno Takaaki and said, "I think that's why you called because you wanted to confirm whether your wife was in a state where she couldn't answer the phone.
You are abroad and can only confirm by phone. Is there no way your wife can answer the phone?
If you want to confirm whether your plan is successful, you can only use this method when you are far away.
In other words, these are just some phone calls to confirm whether your wife is dead, am I right?"
Looking at the silent Yoneno Takaaki, Karasawa looked him directly in the eyes: "I think your wife was no longer able to answer your calls during those four days.
You just want to confirm, right? You want to confirm whether your wife is caught.
You kept calling your home for confirmation, and when no one answered your calls to your home for four consecutive days, you felt relieved.
So from the fifth day after the business trip until you came back, you didn't call me again.
I finally confirmed that the reason why you set up a conspiracy to kill someone was because I saw the phone record."
"Really? I didn't expect that there would be such a misunderstanding."
Even though it was visible to the naked eye that Yoneno Takaaki's face was solemn and he seemed to be under a lot of pressure, he still argued: "I only do this occasionally, especially when I go there on a business trip for work.
I have been concentrating on the apartment since then, and I don’t have time to pay attention to the phone anymore.”
"Are you still stubbornly resisting?"
Sato Miwako said angrily: "Then what's going on between you and Miss Taeko from the research institute?
Are you cheating? Miss Taeko has admitted to dating you!
Do you think I’m just talking nonsense here without evidence?
After you started dating, you felt that your wife was an obstacle, so you tried to find a way to solve her, right?"
"No!" Yoneno Takaaki retorted coldly.
"What's wrong!" Sato Miwako yelled angrily: "You playboy!"
"Although I cheated, I still love my wife!"
Yoneno Takaaki retorted with a serious face: "Cheating is just to seek spiritual comfort, because I am too tired, but even so, my love for my wife will not change."
Good guy, Karasawa called him a good guy after hearing what Yoneno Takaaki said.
You are "Sincerity Brother", right? You can still be so righteous and confident with such a scumbag's declaration. Tang Ze has handled so many cases and many relationship-related ones, but this is the first time I have seen a righteous one.
"Do you think we will believe this?"
Sato Miwako looked at Yoneno Takaaki with a disgusted expression: "At this time, are you still saying such things?
You scumbag!"
"How many times do you have to tell me before you understand."
Yoneno Takaaki looked up at the photo of his wife hanging on the mourning hall, with a serious expression: "No matter how ugly she becomes, my love for her will not change."
"You still want to take a trip with us."
Seeing Yoneno Takaaki stubbornly resisting and starting to cheat, Takagi said in a deep voice: "Let us go back to the Metropolitan Police Department to talk about the rest."
"Tomorrow is my wife's farewell ceremony. I won't go anywhere." Yoneno Takaaki looked at the three of them and said, "If you have to take me somewhere, please take me to the spiritual site tomorrow."
"I will send you there, but that is out of our humanitarian assistance to the prisoners."
Karasawa looked at Yoneno Takaaki who still refused to plead guilty and said: "Originally, I thought you were cheating on me and wanted to get rid of your wife because she was an obstacle.
But I always felt that something was not clear, and after hearing your words today, I finally figured it all out.
It's not because you cheated and wanted to solve her obstacle, but because you love her, that's why you chose to kill her."
"What on earth is going on here, Tangze Criminal?" Hearing Tangze's words, Takagi and Takagi were shocked.
They never thought why Karasawa would agree with such a scumbag's speech as Yoneno Takaaki.
"Because his wife also cheated on her."
Karasawa's words made Yoneno Takaaki turn livid in an instant. When Karasawa saw his expression, he felt confident. At the same time, he looked at the stunned Takagi and smiled: "And to be precise, his wife cheated first.
, and then he will cheat.
Because I am so tired, I not only have to be responsible for cleaning the housework and eating three meals a day, but I also have to be responsible for work.
But even so, his wife still cheated on her. He was reluctant to divorce because he loved his wife, and he accumulated too much pressure, so he finally chose to cheat on her.
The same is true for killing people. Because I couldn't accept my wife's cheating again and again, I finally chose..."
"enough!!"
Yoneno Takaaki looked at Tangze with a ferocious expression and said angrily: "You are criminals, can you arrange the dead so casually?"
"Whatever?" Tang Ze's expression was as calm as ever: "I'm not just imagining it.
Those glasses were worn by your wife's cheating partner, right?
You said those are your glasses, then please tell me why those glasses don't have any power.
I knew from the moment I picked it up that they were not your glasses at all, they were just decorative glasses.
But you came over in a hurry and said, "It helped a lot." These were the glasses you had been looking for for a long time but could not find.
From that moment on, I doubted you.
In addition, the photo frame was not made to fall by anything, but by man-made things.
I think it was your wife or the owner of the glasses who took them off.
Because this picture is too harsh for some people."
"Those...those glasses are a prop to hide others' ears?"
After listening to Karasawa's words, Miwako Sato was a little incredulous, but she continued following Karasawa's train of thought: "After I came home without being noticed, I forgot to take it when I went back."
"In other words, the motive for the murder this time was not to remove the obstacle of his wife, but because of his wife's cheating."
Takagi looked at Yoneno Takaaki with a complex expression and said, "Is that so, Mr. Yoneno?"
Yoneno Takaaki looked past Karasawa and the others with a complex expression, turning his back to them and unwilling to talk to them anymore.
But Karasawa would not let him continue to be an ostrich. He chased Yoneno Takaaki without looking at him, but stood side by side: "You are indeed concealing the motive of the murder, because the motive is difficult to say.
That’s why when you saw me getting that pair of glasses, you claimed that the glasses related to motives were yours.”
At this point, Karasawa looked at the silent Yoneno Takaaki and felt the need to apply more pressure, "If you don't want to admit it, how about you cook a meal wearing the glasses I found?"
"enough!"
Tangze's words in vain touched his sore spot. His cooking skills were honed for his wife. Asking him to wear the cheating man's glasses when cooking, Tangze's words were simply "killing and heartbreaking".
After a brief outburst, Yoneno Takaaki seemed to have had his energy and energy drained away, and his whole person became sluggish.
"You must think it's unbelievable that a woman like that can cheat, right?"
"Ah this..."
The thin-skinned Takagi smiled awkwardly but politely after hearing Yoneno Takaaki's words.
Although Tangze and the two didn't show it, they were a little embarrassed when their subconscious thoughts were revealed. Although they didn't react as big as Takagi, the unspeakable expressions on their faces betrayed the two of them.
However, after Yoneno Takaaki saw the reactions of the three people, he did not get angry, but felt a little bitter: "At the beginning, I thought so too.
When my wife was young, she was very rash when it came to love, and it was really hard for me to be her husband.
However, she said that she was attracted by the very ambitious man and could not extricate herself.
Although she cheated on her, in fact my wife still loves me very much.
She always said that my cooking was delicious, and she is irreplaceable to me.
That loving cooking gradually made my wife gain weight, but I still didn’t change my mind about her. It’s better to say that I breathed a sigh of relief.”
"Relieved?" Takagi was a little confused after hearing Yoneno Takaaki's words.
"Yeah, I'm thinking that if she becomes like that, no man will like her."
Yoneno Takaaki said with a decadent face full of despair: "But I am still too naive, there are really men in this world who like such women.
Although my wife separated from that man, her personality of cheating has not changed.
I knelt down and cried and begged her, but she still didn't change. I felt very uncomfortable like this."
"But you also cheated, didn't you?" Miwako Sato said dissatisfied.
"That was the first time in my life. I think it would be much easier if I had an affair myself."
"Is it just to vent your anger?" Takagi asked.
"Yes, that's what I thought at first, but I found that I was wrong."
Yoneno Takaaki said with a painful expression: "But even so, I'm still not happy, but I have no way out, I can only do this!"
After listening to each other's words, everyone's mood was extremely complicated, and for a while, the room fell into wordless silence.
