Chapter 72 Chapter 72 What follows is emotion and law...
281
Both the barrage and Kamohashi Ron itself fell into silence, and the netizen who came for emotional consultation even typed a series of ellipsis and sent it to Kamohashi Ron after the silence.
The main thing is that he felt that he had seen a lot of storms and waves, but the other party directly set him up with a trap. He was instantly silent and even sent a private message to Kamo no Hashiro, who was still a little unwilling to give up:
"Even if it's a honey trap, why is he so picky? We're both men, right?"
Kamo no Bridge Theory: "..."
So what? Men can't cheat on other men? There are plenty of men who commit fraud.
Kamohashi Ron sent a private message to the other party with a bit of helplessness, "If he doesn't give you a return gift, and you have plenty of money, how could he consider your gender when setting up a trap? He only cares about whether you have money or not."
Even if we take a step back and say that it might be easier to get away with someone of the same sex, when I ask why they broke up, the other person says, "I found that I still prefer the opposite sex." How should I respond?
[No, why does a big deal happen every time I go to a relationship consultation? Last time I thought it was infidelity but it turned out to be murder, and this time it's a honey trap.]
[The "sinner trap" is already considered a small one (sad)]
[After all, it's just a scam and no one's dead yet, but it's hard to say whether the other party will become desperate after Yaya exposes it all at once]
[Would this kind of person watch YaYa’s live broadcast? ]
"That's hard for me to say. Personally, I suggest this netizen report this to the police to avoid further losses," Kamohashi said. "Also, don't take it too lightly. If this is truly a honey trap, this netizen is definitely not the only victim. This netizen is wealthy and was able to cut his losses in time, but what if someone with less money but a lot of vanity is involved? Will they take out loans or take desperate risks?"
【Yaya thinks a lot】
[But what Yaya said makes sense. Those people are very likely to take out loans... or do some bad things for money, such as killing people for money, gambling, etc.]
[YaYa said this person must be a repeat offender, which means he may have harmed many people.]
"If he wasn't a repeat offender, it's unlikely he'd be so adept at certain things when interacting with this online friend. In fact, it wasn't until I reminded him that he realized he'd never given you a gift in return, right?" Kamonohashi continued, sending a private message. "Does he often take you out to high-end hotels for dinner under the pretext of returning your gifts?"
"Yes, yes, it's very high-end. I know what's good, so I really didn't think it was a scam." The other party sent a private message and even gave the address. Kamohashi Ron looked at the address and fell into deep thought.
Isn’t that the hotel where the boss who helped the smuggling gang hide their stuff stayed last time?
"In the same group."
Kamo no Hashiron ruthlessly passed judgment on the netizen's partner.

"Isn't this the hotel where we arrested the communications expert during our first investigation together, and brought him to the Metropolitan Police Department?" Isshiki Totomaru said, "The hotel owner helped the smuggling gang hide smuggled goods, and then was taken to the Metropolitan Police Department to eat pork chop rice."
"Now it seems that the boss might just be a minor issue, and the hotel itself is the real fish." Kamonohashi Ron said, "I'll do some research after I get off the air."
The comments expressed some concerns, and some of them said:
[From what I know, if this is the case, it's very likely that the hotel, while appearing clean, is actually affiliated with a yakuza organization, such as the Yamaguchi-gumi...]
[Does this still exist? I thought it was just an urban legend.]
[Anyway, you won’t come into contact with them during normal work, but Yaya, be careful when investigating and don’t provoke the Yakuza organization.]
[I'm mistaken. The Yakuza shouldn't mess with Yaya. My roommate is a detective.]
[Then your roommate isn't in a group class, right? If he is, then you'll really achieve great results.]
"Being a police officer isn't just a profession; it's a spirit. As a police officer, you can't turn a blind eye to potential crimes." Isshiki Totomaru said, "If there are any problems after the investigation, I'll notify my colleagues in the team's division."
After a while, someone suddenly posted a comment.
"No need to notify me. I just reported the case, and it was transferred directly to the Investigation Division. The police from the Metropolitan Police Department told me that this involves the Yakuza, and my target is actually a repeat offender!"
【……】
[Every time this happens, I want to ask, didn’t I come here to watch the emotional live broadcast? Where did I go?]
[What will be performed next for us is - Emotion and the Rule of Law]
[Sooner or later I will edit a script for Yaya’s emotional live broadcast to turn it into a reasoning live broadcast, or a legal live broadcast]
Kamo no Hashiro: "If you don't plan to make a profit, you can do whatever you want."

The hotel was sealed off. The reason for the closure was not only because the Group Investigation Section had confirmed that it was a base of the underworld, but also because a murder had occurred there. The strange circumstances at the crime scene forced the colleagues of the Group Investigation Section to ask for help from the Investigation Section 1.
When Amemiya arrived, the scene in front of her made her a little puzzled. After all, the situation at the scene was really weird. It was said to be homicide, and it seemed that all the elements of homicide were gathered, but it was a secret room, and only the fingerprints of the deceased were found in the entire secret room. But it was said to be suicide... Seeing this weird scene, most people would think of murder by a machine gun, not suicide.
It's impossible that this guy believed in some evil cult and committed suicide directly. That's the method only some second-rate mystery novelists would use.
Isshiki Totsumaru received a call from Amemiya-senpai, saying that the hotel needed him and Mr. Kamofu to come over.
And Isshiki Todumaru simply recounted the situation at the scene to Kamohashi Ron, and then said: "It seems that you are the only one who can solve the case, Ron."
"So it's a difficult case? Then what are you waiting for? Let's hurry to the scene. I feel like I haven't come across an interesting murder case in ages." Kamonohashi Ron was about to open the door and leave, so Isshiki Totomaru said with a little helplessness, and then complained:
"Although I'm immediately full of energy, your live broadcast is still on, Lun!"
"I did forget about this matter, so I'll end the live broadcast now." Kamohashi Ron directly turned off the live broadcast, leaving only netizens shouting that it was a shame to end the live broadcast and that there was something that people like us couldn't watch.
Can I broadcast the crime scene live for you? Not to mention that the Metropolitan Police Department would definitely not release it. He is an emotional anchor, not a horror and bizarre anchor. The weirdness of the scene is still a bit too exciting for most viewers.
There are also many people who get frightened by the sudden appearance of a corpse even when watching movies or TV shows.
What's more, the situation at the hotel was so strange.
284
According to the group's explanation, the victim had been doing "honey traps" during his lifetime, causing some people to lose their fortunes, so he had many enemies. However, the problem now is that it is impossible to be sure whether this person committed suicide or was murdered.
The autopsy results showed that the death was mechanical asphyxiation, but it would also be strange if it was suicide.
"Opisthotonos, but it was mechanical asphyxiation, not poisoning?" Kamonohashi Ron discussed with the forensic doctor as he lay beside the corpse. "Generally speaking, opisthotonos are a symptom of strychnine poisoning, right?"
The medical examiner shook his head. "No, we didn't detect any poison in his body... But according to the informant's statement, the deceased had quite a few wounds before he saw him. He said he'd accidentally fallen, but he doesn't think it's likely. It's also possible that tetanus caused him to suffer extreme pain and he had opisthotonos."
Kamohashi Ron did not deny this view, but just continued to lie down next to the corpse.
The corpse had something like white silk tied around its neck, and it didn't appear to have any wounds.
"There's no resistance to the wounds. Was it prepared for death, or was it no longer conscious enough to resist?" Kamonohashi Ron asked softly. "If it was suicide, why did it choose such a painful method? What is it trying to tell us?"
Kamohashi Ron took another closer look at the deceased's tape and noticed something strange: "The foot was fixed."
The body was in an opisthotonos position on a stool, with both the stool and the body facing away from the hotel entrance.
"Does this hotel door open or close?" Kamohashi Ron suddenly stood up from beside the corpse and asked the terrified waiter beside him. The waiter whispered:
"To open the door from the inside, push it outwards..."
"So the person outside who wants to open the door must pull it out." Kamohashi Ron sighed, "I see. Now I want to find another piece of evidence. If I can find it, the case will be almost closed."
"Ah?" Isshiki Todumaru was a little shocked. "Do you already know who the murderer is?"
Kamonohashi Ron shook his head. "I told you we have to find that evidence. If we can't find it, I won't have enough evidence to prove the murderer is this person. After all, this murderer is very smart. He must have left us some information, such as information to frame someone else."
"Huh?"

"In fact, the deceased had been holding this thing in his hand the entire time," the forensic doctor said. "It has fingerprints from both the deceased and the person who reported the crime. However, the person who reported the crime had a very clear alibi for the time of the deceased's death, so we have ruled it out as a possible cause of death."
"No, this is the death message he left behind," Kamonohashi Ron said. "But unlike most death messages that point to the real culprit, this is a frame-up. Can I meet the person who reported the crime?"
Officer Amamiya and the forensic doctor had no objections, so Kamohashi Ron met with the reporter, who asked cautiously:
"Duck... Duck?"
Isshiki Todumaru: "Pfft."
Kamonohashi: "When I came here, I was wondering if the deceased was setting up a honey trap before his death, just like the one the netizens sent me, so you were the first person to discover it?"
"Ah, no? I reported it as fraud!"
