In fact, it is very simple to verify whether Tang Ze's reasoning is correct.
All he had to do was call Uncle Tomi and ask him to measure the actual height of Councillor Yamazaki, whose body was still in the morgue. That would verify whether Karasawa's previous reasoning was correct.
This kind of measurement is not a technical job. Tang Ze didn't even hang up the phone. He just listened to Uncle Dengmi directing his men to find the body, and soon they got the answer.
Councillor Yamazaki's actual height is about 1.65 meters.
"So, one of the three women who spoke to Councillor Yamazaki yesterday is the culprit!?"
After hearing what Tang Ze said, Ishida Takaji hurriedly urged, "What are you waiting for! Tell everyone to bring these three back for questioning!"
"Don't worry, we can actually further identify the culprit." Tang Ze gestured to Ishida Takaji to calm down, then looked at Kamii Naoki and said, "Tell me, who can we eliminate first?"
"Hmm..." Naoki Kamii knew that this was Tang Ze testing him, so he thought about it very carefully.
Recalling the three women they had met, Naoki Kamii's eyes lit up and he said, "I see. Miss Koonaka Sumiko, the female college student, can be eliminated first!"
"Huh? Why?" Ishida Takaji was a little confused and didn't understand where the other party's judgment came from.
"Because Sumiko Koonaka is a female volleyball player in school. She's over 1.7 meters tall, not much different from me."
Naoki Kamii explained: "We are looking for female prisoners who are about 1.6 meters tall and can become 1.8 meters tall after wearing hidden height-increasing shoes.
Sumiko Kodaka is already over 1.7 meters tall. If she wears height-increasing shoes, she will probably be close to 1.9 meters, which will look too unnatural.
It also clearly contradicts the testimony of the waiter who determined the prisoner's height based on the room number."
"Then there are only two people left!?" Ishida Takaji grabbed Uei Naoki and supported his shoulders and asked, "Who are they? Who are the remaining two suspects?"
"One is the anchorwoman named Sawada Nako, and the other is Councillor Yamazaki's current fiancée, Ms. Mita Masami."
After finishing his words, Naoki Kamii looked at Tang Ze for advice and asked, "What should we do now? Should we take these two back?"
"There's absolutely no need for that. In fact, I already know who the culprit is." Tang Ze smiled and looked at Shang Jing Naoki and said, "In fact, there is still one person who can be eliminated."
"Eh? Who is it?" After hearing what Tang Ze said, Naoki Kamii and the others asked in unison.
"I can only tell you that this clue is included in the testimony when we went to question him."
Tang Ze pointed to his forehead and said, "It's also related to the carpet fibers on Councillor Yamazaki's head."
Before Naoki Kamii could ask anything, Tang Ze took out his phone, walked away and started contacting Takagi to explain the situation.
On the other hand, Ishida Takaji kept circling around the frowning and thoughtful Naoki Kamii, urging him to come up with the correct answer quickly, which annoyed him greatly.
"I'm not going to the beach to play with watermelons, so stop circling around me!"
Naoki Kamii complained impatiently, but the next moment he seemed to have a flash of inspiration in his mind and was stunned.
"What did you think of?" Seeing Naoki Kamii's expression, Ishida Takaji grabbed his shoulders and shook him repeatedly to wake him up from his daze.
"So that's how it is... So that's how it is..." Naoki Kamii looked at Tang Ze who was walking towards him after hanging up the phone, with a look of admiration on his face: "Senior, have you thought of this a long time ago?"
"You look like you've figured it out?" Tang Ze smiled with satisfaction and said, "Sometimes a casual remark or detail can be the key to solving a case. You must keep this in mind."
"Hey, I understand!" Naoki Kamii said with respect, "Thank you for your guidance, senior. I will keep it in mind!"
"What the hell are you two talking about?! Stop keeping me in suspense!"
Ishida Takaji, who was standing by, heard the two people talking in riddles and couldn't help but urge them, "Who is it?! Who killed Councillor Yamazaki?"
"It's his current fiancée, Ms. Mita Masami."
Tang Ze looked at Ishida Takaji and explained, "First of all, there must be a motive for killing someone, this is a matter of course.
The female anchor Nako Sawada is the ex-girlfriend of Congressman Yamazaki, and the two are still in a relationship. I guess they have reached some tacit understanding between them.
For example, Congressman Yamazaki gave Nako Sawada certain benefits, including acting as a backer, using his influence and other support, while Nako Sawada continued to maintain a relationship with Congressman Yamazaki.
Under such circumstances, there was obviously no reason for the other party to suddenly and unpreparedly kill Congressman Yamazaki.
Because compared to being in love, the relationship between the two is more like a transaction, and judging from the ease with which the other party hinted at this matter, it is probably not something to be tabooed about in the eyes of the other party.
Then the murderous intention caused by conflict of interest can be eliminated.
But Miss Mita Masami is different. He said that the two of them were dating with the intention of getting married. If she found out about Yamazaki's infidelity, she would probably kill him impulsively."
"But that doesn't rule out Sawada Nako, does it?" Ishida Takaji asked, puzzled. "Is there any other evidence to support this?"
"certainly."
Naoki Kamii said, “We previously learned from Nako Sawada that when the two were dating, every time he was caught cheating, Councillor Yamazaki would kneel down and beg for her forgiveness.
But the two of them are now in a "lover" relationship, so even if Sawada Nako cheated, she wouldn't care, and Yamazaki Shinichi wouldn't need to kneel down and beg for forgiveness.
Therefore, the only person who can make Councillor Yamazaki kneel down and apologize is Masumi Mita.
The other party is not only his current fiancée, but also the secretary-general of the Minyou Party and the daughter of Jian Tianwu.
If he offends the other party and the engagement is broken off, it is hard to say whether he still has a bright future.
If the other party finds out, it would be more reasonable to kneel down and apologize immediately."
"So, does that mean that Masumi Mita took the opportunity to kill Councilman Yamazaki when he was kneeling down to apologize?" Ishida Takaji couldn't help but guess when he heard this.
"Regarding this, the following are some of my guesses based on the scene."
Tang Ze smiled and said, "I think at the beginning, it was just an ordinary date between the two of them.
However, it is possible that when the two were alone together, Councilman Yamazaki let something slip, or revealed a flaw in other aspects, leading to the discovery of the cheating.
Girls are natural detectives in this regard. There are so many girls who cheat, so it is normal for them to be discovered and exposed.
In short, when Mita Masumi was found to be cheating, she was probably very angry at the time, and Yamazaki, the habitual offender, immediately got down from his seat and knelt down to beg for forgiveness.
But what happened next might be the cause of this murder..."
