In addition to explaining the reason for calling Shinichi Yamazaki, after some questioning, Sumiko Kodaka provided some noteworthy news.
A few days ago, Shinichi Yamazaki behaved abnormally.
At that time, Shinichi Yamazaki held a consolation meeting for the student volunteers to thank them for their previous help in publicity.
At the meeting, a girl happily suggested that they go bowling together.
At that time, the students all agreed with this proposal, but Yamazaki Shinichi angrily pounded the table and said that they were not allowed to go bowling.
Because this was indeed a somewhat unusual matter, Tang Ze also asked about it. Ozawa Sumiko thought that it might be because the congressman had been investigating illegal fundraising recently, which caused too much pressure.
Thinking back, the reason why I didn't go to public places was probably because I was afraid of encountering danger.
After investigating the three contacts who called the deceased Shinichi Yamazaki at night, Tang Ze felt that there was something fishy about the case.
Although there is no basis for this, the "classic three-choice" situation that occurred in the case cannot help but make people imagine.
All three had alibis, had spoken to the deceased, and were all women.
From a scientific point of view, it is obviously more likely that it was a "murder of passion" than a "professional killer".
Of course, judging objectively, Tang Ze is still unable to determine which possibility the case is leaning towards.
However, not long after Tang Ze finished organizing the information he had obtained during the day, Takagi on the other side called and said that all the people who met the height requirements at the hotel had been selected, and they were now checking their alibis.
"I understand. I'll go back right away."
Since he had already completed his investigation, Tang Ze planned to meet up with Takagi and the others to share information before discussing the next plan.
He asked Naoki Kamii, who was going to buy coffee, to get in the car, and the two of them rushed to the Lily Hotel.
As for getting off work?
Given the situation today, they won't be able to leave work unless things are pushed to a certain stage. At least they have to finish interrogating this person first.
There was no way. According to Inspector Megure, the higher-ups were ready to withstand the enormous pressure from Nagatacho and now asked them to solve the case quickly.
After all, only when the truth comes out can they respond more quickly based on the truth.
This is a race against time. The faster you go, the better prepared you can be.
They drove back to the underground parking lot. Just as they got out of the car, a tall man suddenly walked over from not far away.
The other person was dressed in black, exuding a strong sense of oppression, and walked towards the two of them with an expressionless face.
“Back off!”
Tang Ze closed the car door and signaled Kamii Naoki not to come closer, then he stepped forward and confronted the other party from a distance.
Although Tang Ze did not show any big reaction on the surface, he had actually already tensed all the muscles in his body. As long as the other party dared to make any move, Tang Ze would guarantee to subdue the other party in the first place.
"Stop, what's going on?" Tang Ze looked at the man and scolded him, "Don't come any closer, or you'll suffer the consequences."
"I'm sorry, did I cause any misunderstanding?"
After hearing Tang Ze's words, the man immediately stood still and bowed, then took out a business card from his pocket and handed it out with both hands: "Actually, I am Councillor Yamazaki's bodyguard, this is my business card."
"bodyguard?"
While being wary of a sudden attack from the other party, Tang Ze approached and took the business card.
After taking a step back to create some distance, Tang Ze took a glance and found that the name column above read "Ishida Takaji" and the name of the security company behind it.
"You're waiting for me here on purpose?" Tang Ze looked at Ishida Takaji and asked, "What's your purpose?"
"I just hope that the famous Detective Karasawa can help Councillor Yamazaki catch the criminal and avenge him!" Ishida Takaji still maintained a bowing posture, as if to show that he was harmless.
"In that case, why don't you just meet with Detective Takagi and the others?"
Seeing that there seemed to be no danger, Naoki Kamii came out and questioned, "Is there anything you can't talk to them about?
Why did you have to come all the way here to see Detective Tang Ze?"
"I don't trust anyone else because the clue I'm about to share is a bit difficult to talk about..."
Ishida Takaji was a little embarrassed to speak up when he said this: "I think if it was Detective Karasawa, he would keep his mouth shut after knowing this..."
"So what exactly is this clue you want to talk about?" Naoki Kamii asked curiously after hearing what the other party said.
"A-a woman...went to Councillor Yamazaki's room last night..." Ishida Takaji stammered, "I think it might just be that Councillor Yamazaki was having some inconvenience..."
"Woman?" Naoki Kamii nodded in understanding, then couldn't help but grumble, "Ah, so that's how it is, I understand.
However, guys who are involved in politics are really good at saying one thing in public and another in private. They appear righteous in front of others but have ugly faces behind their backs.
I wonder what kind of expression would that congressman's idol, Sumiko Koonaka, have if she knew that the congressman she admired was actually a philandering and cheating man.
The reason why Naoki Kamii was so disgusted and ridiculed a dead person was probably because the contrast was too great.
Originally, when they learned from the First Secretary Akihiro Miyashita that he was a congressman who was not afraid of power, Naoki Kamii had some admiration for him.
At that time, he and Akihiro Miyashita were fighting against the same enemy.
However, as he and Tang Ze investigated together, the good impression that had just sprouted collapsed in an instant. Feeling deceived, he even turned to disgust.
"Don't you dare say that about the councillor!"
Hearing Naoki Kamii's ridicule, Ishida Takaji said angrily, "Maybe Councillor Yamazaki has some issues with his relationship, but when it comes to major issues, he is definitely not as bad as you say!
I'm Councillor Yamazaki's bodyguard. I'm with him every day and I can be said to be the person who knows him best!
Even after knowing these bad things, it does not affect the councilor's position in my heart at all. That person cannot enter high-end Japanese restaurants or play golf!
He always cares about the people and works hard. Congressmen are only human beings. You can't completely deny him just because he has shortcomings!"
"Alright, I apologize on your behalf, my juniors. You shouldn't judge someone without knowing them."
Tang Ze calmed the agitated Ishida Takaji and said, "The important thing now is to find the criminal and avenge Councillor Yamazaki. Please tell me in detail about the woman who went to Yiyuan's room yesterday."
"I see..."
As Tang Ze spoke, Ishida Takaji gradually calmed down and began to slowly talk about the last scene he saw in the hotel last night.
