Although it was confirmed that it was a homicide, Tang Ze did not feel relieved at the moment.
Because this case is very difficult.
As for the reason, it is naturally the cause of Takekawa Toshio's death.
After the autopsy of Toshio Takekawa's body, no signs of suffocation due to compression of the chest or neck, or obstruction of the mouth, nose or airway were found.
In other words, Toshio Takekawa did not die from conventional murder methods such as strangulation, suffocation, or drowning.
After ruling out these situations, there is only one possibility.
He suffocated from simple lack of oxygen.
Having no symptoms is actually a manifestation.
This time, there were no wounds on the surface of the body, and there were no abnormal symptoms on the body. The only signs of acidemia and amino acid loss were confirmed, which confirmed that Takekawa Toshio died of suffocation.
This is exactly consistent with the human body's death from suffocation due to lack of oxygen.
But how could a place like the crime scene cause someone to die due to lack of oxygen?
As for the speculation that he suffocated himself to death, it is a joke. Even a fool knows that it is impossible for a person to suffocate himself to death. The desire to survive will definitely prevail in the end.
The most troublesome thing is to kill people by creating an oxygen-deficient environment using unknown methods.
You have no idea what specific method the criminal used to kill him, and even if you suspect someone after investigation, you can't do anything about him.
Even if you think his motive for murder is shocking, as soon as the other party questions "How did I kill him", you will be speechless and unable to refute it at all.
Ultimately, this is a question of confidence.
Therefore, the method of murder must be clarified, which is the basis of all reasoning.
If the method of murder cannot be confirmed, all subsequent reasoning will be as fragile as castles in the air.
With no cause of death confirmed, the case was in an unfavorable situation from the outset.
After Karasawa conveyed the message to Officer Megure, he went straight off work.
There's no way. It's already late at night, and there's no way to continue the investigation by investigating Takekawa Toshio's interpersonal relationships. I can only wait until tomorrow to see if there is any progress.
But Tang Ze had a hunch that this case might be more troublesome than he had imagined.
After sending the body and some items on the clothes to the "Physical Evidence Examination Department" for detailed analysis tomorrow, Tang Ze left the "Science and Research Institute".
After returning home and resting for a night, Karasawa took Naoki Kamii and Takagi to the company where the deceased Toshio Takekawa worked early the next morning.
After showing their criminal evidence, Tang Ze and the other two were led into the reception room by the front desk staff.
Tang Ze winked at the two of them, and Takagi and Kamii Naoki left the room directly.
After a short wait, a man in a suit entered the meeting room.
"I'm the General Affairs Section Chief, my name is Kujo Hiroshi."
The man bowed slightly to Tang Ze. After they exchanged greetings, the man sat down and looked at Tang Ze: "I already know about Minister Takekawa. I'm really shocked. I didn't expect..."
"The reason I came here this time is to ask something about Minister Takekawa," Tang Ze said.
"Um...excuse my rudeness, is this a murder case?" Kujo Hiroshi asked after a moment of hesitation.
"No, at the moment, we can't be sure yet." Although Tang Ze was certain in his heart that this was most likely a murder case, he still had to conceal what needed to be concealed.
"Is that so..." Kujo Hiroshi nodded without saying anything else.
"Excuse me, what kind of person is Minister Takekawa?" After the other party finished asking the question, Tang Ze immediately got to the point.
"Well..."
Kujo Hiroshi subconsciously glanced at the ground, then pondered for a moment before saying, "He's very capable at work and takes good care of his subordinates. Everyone admires him."
"The information we investigated before coming here showed that Minister Takekawa was sent here from a bank that has dealings with your company. Is this true?" Tang Ze verified the truth of this information.
"Yes, that's true." Kujo Hiroshi nodded.
"Willn't his presence make you feel embarrassed?" Tang Ze gave a meaningful look to Kujo Hiro, who looked unhappy. "After all, he was sent by Party A."
"No, how could that be, that's not happening..." Although Kujo Hiroshi was still trying to evade Tang Ze with words, his guilty expression had unconsciously betrayed his inner thoughts.
Tang Ze was not surprised by this. The senior executives of these large companies were different from the lower-level staff. When something happened, they would try to conceal it and maintain stability, and were unwilling to get involved in any trouble.
This is normal. After all, death is not a glorious thing. If it gets out, it will have an impact on the company, so we have to be cautious.
Of course, Tang Ze was just asking routine questions. Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Tang Ze did not force him to thank him and said goodbye.
After getting downstairs, Tang Ze waited for a while, and then saw Takagi and Kamii Naoki walking out of the elevator.
Since he knew the consistent nature of these company executives in protecting their own interests, how could Tang Ze not make preparations?
After the front desk brought them into the company, while Kujo Hiroshi was not there, Karasawa asked Takagi and Kamii Naoki to go inside the company to question the employees.
The upper management will hide the truth and say polite words for their own benefit, but the ordinary employees at the lower level will not care so much.
Good is good, bad is bad, they will tell the truth more objectively.
As expected, Takagi and Naoki Kamii received completely opposite evaluations from Hiroshi Kujo when they inquired at the company.
Among the members, Toshio Takekawa has a very bad reputation.
