"12 years ago, when Koizumi Ryuji was being bullied, a girl stood up for him."
In the men's locker room, Sakaki Makoto opened the window, lit a cigarette, and said calmly:
"Whenever Ryuji Koizumi got hurt, that girl would help him to the health room."
"However..."
"When Kunimatsu Ohta assaulted the girl, Ryuji Koizumi chose to back off."
"I'm right, right..."
Sakaki Makoto looked at Goto Risa:
"Ms. Goto."
Swish!
Everyone turned their heads suddenly and looked at Goto Risa in disbelief.
“This…this…”
Megure Jusan was shocked:
"Is this true?"
"Not only that, Koizumi Ryuji didn't even dare to report the incident to the teacher and ran back home to hide."
After taking a puff of cigarette, Sakaki Makoto said calmly:
"I am afraid..."
"This is also the reason why Mr. Koizumi's social phobia has worsened."
Several glances swept back and forth between Koizumi Ryuji and Goto Risa. Sakaki Makoto's words were undoubtedly a bolt from the blue, opening the scar and revealing the bloody wound underneath.
The pain made Ryuji Koizumi a little breathless.
He couldn't help but recall what happened that day.
"I didn't muster up the courage back then, but I found catharsis 12 years later..."
Sakaki Makoto sneered:
“It’s so dramatic.”
"Shut...Shut up...Don't say any more!"
With his head in his hands, Koizumi Ryuji changed his usual timid attitude and roared:
"I hate my own cowardice!!!"
“I hate my own powerlessness!!!”
"I hate...Ota Kunimatsu!!!"
He knelt on the ground, his face grim:
"I've been planning for 5 years, 5 whole years!!!"
"I'm going to make that beast Ota Kunimatsu live a life worse than death!!!"
"But...."
"How can I make up for the mistakes I made?"
Koizumi Ryuji looked at Goto Risa in despair and murmured:
"Risa..."
"sorry..."
Megure Jusan and Inspector Yuminaga pulled him up together and asked:
"Did you kill Ota Kunimatsu?!"
"It's me."
Koizumi Ryuji nodded:
"I plead guilty."
After taking a puff of cigarette, Sakaki Makoto said nothing.
"You can compare the footprints. That's the footprint I left behind."
As if he had a mental breakdown, Koizumi Ryuji confessed everything:
"I used what happened that year as a threat and successfully tricked Kunimatsu Ohta into the gymnasium... and carried out..."
"kill!"
No one questioned him why he did this, and Megure Juzo let out a long sigh.
There is no doubt that this was a murder that had been planned for many years.
Koizumi Ryuji's self-blame and regret all turned into hatred towards Ota Kunimatsu.
He never expected to be forgiven by Goto Risa.
When Megure Jusan and Inspector Yuminaga thought they had caught the criminal and could successfully close the case...
"You are still as cowardly as you were back then."
Goto Risa turned around and looked directly into Koizumi Ryuji's eyes:
"Cowardly enough..."
"You don't even have the courage to betray me."
"Men are such stupid creatures..."
She shrugged lightly and smiled bitterly:
"My perfect plan was ruined by you just like that."
"Did I owe you in my past life?"
"What's going on?"
Megure Jusan and Inspector Yuminaga were both dumbfounded.
Didn’t Ryuji Koizumi plead guilty?
Goto Risa's words clearly pointed out...
The murderer was her, not Ryuji Koizumi.
"ha..."
Seeing that the two policemen still couldn't understand, Goto Risa explained:
"Have you ever thought about why I come back every year in the past few years?"
“Why did the fire happen in the gym?”
"With Ryu... Koizumi Ryuji's cowardly character, does he have the courage to kill someone?"
One question after another caught Megure Jusan off guard.
He didn't think that much at all.
Whether it is from the evidence found at the scene or the motive...
The identity of the criminal pointed to Ryuji Koizumi.
But now, out of nowhere, another Goto Risa appears...
How should this case be decided?
"Brother Sakaki Makoto?"
Megure Jusan looked at Sakaki Makoto for help:
"Who is the real criminal?"
After looking at him deeply, Sakaki Makoto said nothing.
He does know who the real criminal is, but...
Ryuji Koizumi is trying to redeem himself, and this is his last chance.
Give him some time to understand.
"Risa, I...I know you mean well..."
Koizumi Ryuji laughed:
"But the person who killed Ota Kunimatsu was definitely..."
“Ahhh….”
Rubbing her long hair irritably, Goto Risa said impatiently:
"Are you done yet?"
"If you want to take the blame for others, it's too early for you!"
"Five years of planning?"
She curled her lips:
"For today, I studied forensic science to learn how to completely obliterate all traces and commit the perfect crime!"
"If you hadn't done that, even he wouldn't have been able to catch me!"
Sakaki Makoto was stunned for a moment.
because...
Goto Risa was pointing at him.
"Ms. Goto, you really underestimate Mr. Sakaki Makoto!"
