All in all, the case has made a breakthrough, but there are still various possibilities waiting for their verification.
When they returned to the Metropolitan Police Department, Sato Miwako and Takagi were already waiting for them in the office.
After exchanging information with each other, Tang Ze also obtained the information of the two people's investigation.
The two did not get any useful information from Mrs. Shimoda. Shimoda seemed to have always played the role of a good husband at home and was very friendly to his relatives and friends. It was unclear whether anyone had any enemies with him.
At the same time, because they went to the Shimoda family's mansion this time, they also met the maid in the mansion, and learned from her testimony that Mrs. Shimoda went to bed early on the night of the incident.
In other words, the clue of Mrs. Shimoda can basically be ruled out, and the only thing left to track down is the mysterious woman.
For the entire afternoon, Tang Ze and others were investigating Shang Tu's close relatives and friends. Considering the possibility of a gang crime, even men were included in the investigation.
It was almost evening when Karasawa and Chiba went to the bar with a stack of photos, while Takagi and the other man took the shortlisted list and verified it one by one.
In fact, there are only a few people who need to confirm their alibi, Shangtu’s sister and a female friend with whom he has a good relationship.
Of course, whether they have a lover or not will require Takagi and the others to find out when they go to ask the two of them.
I came to the bar again with familiarity. Although it had just opened, there were already people coming and it seemed that business was good.
After the greetings, Tang Ze ordered a martini, and then took out the photo for the boss to identify. After all, always coming to the store to "get something for free" would make people dissatisfied.
After paying, the boss' attitude became much more enthusiastic, but after looking at the photos Tang Ze showed him, the boss shook his head again: "None of them are women I have seen before."
"Eh? None of them?"
Qianye asked unwillingly: "Boss, please take a closer look. Could it be that he didn't recognize her because of her makeup?"
"No," the boss waved his hand. "These guys look completely different from the one I met before. I can't be mistaken."
"Is that so?" Tang Ze put the photo away, took a sip of wine, put it down, and asked Chiba to leave.
But when the two turned around to leave, Tang Ze saw the woman sitting at the table in the corner lighting a cigarette for the man next to her with a smile.
But this action made him pause, and the bar owner's previous sigh and the words between Yi and the lady flashed through his mind.
"That woman looks like a waitress, but she's not professional at all... lighter... work tools..."
"At first glance, she looks like a typical street hostess..."
Obviously, there are some contradictions in what these two people said.
But it is indeed normal.
After all, the bar owner comes into contact with these things every day. Having seen so much, he naturally becomes an expert in this area and can even reason like a "detective" because he is familiar enough.
Miss Yi is just a customer, and a female at that. As long as her sexual orientation is not a problem, she will naturally not look for a hostess. She is just making a judgment based on her impression and feeling.
But in fact, the impressions of the two people also revealed a message.
The mysterious woman wanted to pretend to be a waitress, but because she was unfamiliar with the industry, her behavior was different from that of a real "waitress".
Because of this, the bar owner could easily see through it.
After analyzing another piece of useful information, Tang Ze came to his senses and prepared to leave to continue his investigation, but as soon as he walked out the door, he was enthusiastically stopped by a young man holding a flyer.
"Does this gentleman need a drink from a beautiful woman?"
"You're so handsome, there's a discount. Would you consider it?"
"No, no! We're just leaving, leaving!"
Faced with this situation, Tangze and Qianye waved their hands to refuse and walked away, but the young man obviously only regarded their refusal as an excuse and continued to follow them relentlessly.
"Are you really not going to reconsider? It's still early~ Our top star is still here~"
"That's right, you two should seize the opportunity if you come so early, otherwise if you wait too long, it will be hard to find anyone to drink with you, let alone the pretty ones~"
Hearing this, Tang Ze suddenly stopped and looked at the young man next to him and asked, "What did you just say?"
"Our top player is still..."
"That's not it." Tang Ze interrupted: "Didn't you say something about not being pretty? It's hard to find someone to drink with you?"
"yes."
Seeing Tang Ze stopped and asked such a question, the young man thought Tang Ze was moved and couldn't help showing off with a beaming face: "It's obvious that you don't come here often. The regulars of this street know that it's better to find someone to accompany you as soon as possible.
The later it gets, the fewer pretty girls there are. You won't even be able to find anyone during peak hours. So, what do you think, sir? Which one do you choose?"
As the young man spoke, he placed the flyer in front of Tang Ze and the other man, but before he could say anything else, Tang Ze took out a "Fukuzawa Yukichi" note and stuffed it into the other man's hands.
"Don't worry, no matter what you like, we have it..."
But before he could finish, Tang Ze interrupted him and said, "I have something to ask you. Answer me and this is my tip for you."
"kindness?"
The young man's eyes lit up. He just asked a question and got a "Fukuzawa Yukichi" in his hand. Where else can you find such a good thing?
He nodded immediately: "Ask me anything you want, and I will answer truthfully as long as I know it."
