“It would be nice if there was a recording.”
Saito Hiroshi regretted, "The sounds of the two guns are different, and it's impossible to tell the order in which they were fired by looking at the sounds.
Combined with the current simulation, we can definitely reconstruct what happened that night."
Nanatsuki sighed and said, "The evidence has been taken away. I think the higher-ups took it away because they thought of this."
"If there is no evidence, just find it." Tang Ze stood next to the dummy in Yakushiji Temple and looked out the window with a smile on his face.
"Huh?"
Hearing Tang Ze's words, everyone was stunned. Koshimizu Nanatsuki quickly asked, "Could it be that Detective Tang Ze has discovered something?"
"I'm not sure yet, but I can only take a gamble now."
The reason why Tang Ze brought the scientific research team here, in addition to simulating the situation on the scene, was also for a very important reason.
That was on the night of the crime scene. A wedding party was being held at a nearby restaurant, and a group of young people were making a lot of noise nearby. Even he could hear the noise coming from there while riding in the surveillance car.
Obviously, this kind of wedding party is for young people to invite relatives and friends to have a lively gathering in advance.
Although it is not a wedding ceremony, the male and female protagonists are obviously the absolute protagonists, and there is a high probability that there will be things like cameras.
Of course, the footage of their wedding was useless; what mattered was whether or not those first two gunshots were recorded.
If the recording was made, then that would be the last piece of the puzzle they were missing.
Upon learning of this situation, Nanatsuki Koshimizu could no longer sit still.
She left the finishing work to Saito Hiroshi and others, and hurried to the restaurant to ask for the contact information of the family who hosted the banquet last night.
The subsequent call went exceptionally smoothly, and she quickly confirmed that Dui Dui was indeed filming when the gunshots were heard, and he had indeed recorded the gunshots.
This was undoubtedly good news. After learning this, Karasawa asked Saito Hiroshi to take his men back to the Institute of Scientific Research, while he took Koshimizu Nanatsuki to visit the couple who held the party yesterday and got the videotape from them.
Things became much simpler after that. Perhaps for ordinary people, it would be impossible to distinguish the difference between two gunshots in such a chaotic environment.
But at Kesouyan, only a small software is needed to eliminate the useless human voices at the banquet, and then the two gunshots can be compared.
In fact, after hearing the two gunshots, Tang Ze had almost distinguished the difference between the gunshots, and the subsequent comparison results also verified this.
With the appraisal results, the two went to Ritsuko Kuki's home and found the person who was suspended and reflecting at home.
"The first shot was from the Smith & Wesson, a police gun, and the second shot was from the Togarev pistol."
Holding the appraisal certificate, Tang Ze looked at Jiuqi Ritsuko and said, "You understand what this means, right? What exactly happened in that corridor on the night of the arrest?"
Judging from the sound wave identification, it was probably when Ritsuko Kuki saw Yakushiji pointing a gun at Inspector Kakuta that she also quickly pulled out her gun to support him.
However, due to shaking hands or dim light, she ended up accidentally killing Inspector Kakuta.
"I've already told the police chief everything I need to say," said Kuki Ritsuko calmly. "I don't have anything else to say."
"That's exactly what happened." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said in surprise, "Then the press conference was obviously organized by that person as well."
Although she had already received a hint from Tang Ze, she was still shocked when she received the actual news from Kuki Ritsuko.
"That's right. Whether you admit it or not, the arrest attempt has completely failed. The Metropolitan Police Department's position has already become very difficult."
Hisaki Ritsuko said calmly, "If it were to be made public that a criminal had accidentally shot his comrade, our headquarters would become a victim of a media frenzy.
This is the Chief of Police's natural decision, and I believe you, who have made a significant contribution to the department's credibility, will understand it as well."
"but…"
Before Nanatsuki Koshimizu could finish her words, Ritsuko Kuki interrupted her: "Don't get me wrong, I didn't think of killing Akiho Tetsuo when this happened.
Having done this, I am willing to accept any punishment, but as a member of a criminal organization, I must obey orders and protect the prestige of this organization."
"Are you willing to conceal the truth?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki disagreed. "That's not what we should do."
"But is the truth really that important?"
Jiuqi Ritsuko's expression was complicated, but her tone gradually became firm: "There are many things more important than the truth. Some things must be kept secret even at the cost of one's life."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for the two to say anything, Jiuqi Ritsuko opened the door of the room and said, "That's all I have to say. Please go back."
Faced with such a situation, Tang Ze and the others were naturally unwilling to go back like this.
But Tang Ze's psychology had no effect on Jiuqi Ritsuko. No matter what he said, the other party said nothing and just opened the door and asked them to leave.
The two had no choice but to accept the fact that they were turned down and eventually left reluctantly.
After getting in the car, Karasawa called Officer Megure directly and explained the situation to him.
Of course, this also includes the reasons behind the press conference and the situation of Ritsuko Kuki.
"So that's how it is..."
Inspector Megure said in a heavy tone, "Indeed, the impact is truly enormous, and it's understandable that the higher-ups would react this way.
