Strength lies in numbers is not just a simple saying. After Tang Ze finished reading the previous files, he soon received news that the video had been checked.
Karasawa found Inspector Megure and learned the details of the video from his explanation.
In the corridor of the apartment where the crime occurred, a suspicious figure is currently identified as a major suspect.
At 7:25 in the morning, a suspicious person entered the apartment. His appearance was unclear and he was holding a radio in his hand.
Not only that, even his clothes were the same as the suspect fifteen years ago, which was also the basis for him to be identified.
After the other party got on the elevator, many people came and went. At 7:51, a man in a coat hurriedly got on the elevator, and after the elevator door closed, the suspect walked down the stairs and left the apartment through the elevator.
That means this person stayed in the apartment for nearly twenty-six minutes.
"I remember this time is when classical music is played." Tang Ze said after looking at the time when the suspect entered and exited the video.
"Yes, so we suspect it's this guy."
Megure looked at the man whose face was not visible in the surveillance video and said with an extremely serious expression, "From all these signs, it is clear that the other party is the guy who called himself "Morita" on the radio."
But even so, there are still some strange things.
For example, why would a criminal who had been silent for fifteen years suddenly appear in such a grand manner at this time?
Is the other party really trying to attract media attention and provoke the Metropolitan Police Department?
At least so far, even Tang Ze cannot make a judgment.
"By the way, Officer Megure, I wonder where the senior who handled the case back then is now?" Tang Ze stated his next plan: "I have something I want to ask him."
"It just so happens that I'm going to look for him too, so let's go together." Officer Megure stood up and straightened his clothes after hearing that. "I can also take your car."
"I wonder where this senior lives now?" Tang Ze asked about the destination.
"Beihua General Hospital." Megure couldn't help but sigh, his tone a little bleak: "Senior Furuya Nawa lived a miserable life for the rest of his life because of this case.
His wife died while he was working on a case, without even going to see her for the last time, and his daughter stopped associating with him because of this incident.
Now I am alone in the hospital and seriously ill. The doctor said that how long I can live depends entirely on God's will...
This morning, it was Furuya-san who called me after hearing the broadcast.
I really don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing for the criminal to jump out at this time."
If the criminal can be caught before Senior Furuya dies, that would naturally be a good thing, but if the criminal cannot be caught, the other party might regret it for the rest of his life.
"Don't worry, you can't run away." A gleam of light flashed in Tang Ze's eyes.
His system had just been upgraded because his investigation skill had reached the maximum A-level. Although the system upgrade was a pleasant surprise, his investigation skill was still stuck at the same point.
This case seems so troublesome. If it is solved, it may become an opportunity for a breakthrough in investigative science. Tang Ze will not tolerate the criminal going unpunished, both for public and private reasons.
Since the next itinerary has been decided, the two naturally will not waste time and head directly towards their destination.
…….
In the single room of Beika Hospital, Tang Ze met the senior Furuya mentioned by Inspector Megure.
The other party's condition looked very bad at the moment. His hair was sparse and his face was haggard. He could only lie in bed. His haggard face made him look as fragile as a candle that could be extinguished at any time.
"Megure, you're here!"
Seeing the two people come in, Furuya's face was excited: "How is it?! Did you catch the guy on the broadcast!?"
"The search is still ongoing. We are also currently monitoring the apartment where the incident occurred and the surveillance video is being continuously analyzed."
Inspector Megure looked a little heavy. He really wanted to tell the other party the good news, but he could only answer truthfully.
"If I weren't like this, I would still participate in the investigation even if I retired..."
Furuya's tone was bleak and filled with resentment. He glanced at Tang Ze beside Megure and said, "You kid... are the one who is currently in the limelight of the Metropolitan Police Department..."
"Senior, do you know me?" Tang Ze asked politely.
"After all, I've been a criminal all my life. How could I not care even if it's like this?" Furuya smiled weakly. "You followed me here because you have something to ask me, right?"
"Indeed, I'd like to ask for your opinion on this case." Tang Ze nodded and said, "At the beginning of the incident, the investigation headquarters determined it to be a vendetta. You should have investigated the people around the deceased, right?"
"That's the conclusion I came to."
Furuya said, "The victim showed no signs of having been assaulted, but the fatal wound on her neck was deep. The perpetrator must have harbored a deep hatred for the deceased."
Afterwards, Furuya handed Tang Ze a search file, which contained various investigations he had conducted on the suspicious persons.
"Finally, I have one more question for you." After handing the valuable information to Inspector Megure, Karasawa looked at Furuya and asked, "When were you admitted to the hospital?"
"There aren't many days this month." Gu Wu replied nonchalantly.
“How many people know this?”
Tang Ze's words seemed to irritate Gu Wu. He turned his head and looked at Tang Ze and said, "Why are you asking this?"
"Have all your relatives and friends known about this?" Tang Ze asked again, "I wonder how many other people know about this? Close friends and the like..."
"Don't worry about me, a guy half buried in the ground."
