"We worked overtime until very late that day, but Minister Takekawa went home earlier than us."
Izumizu Ryoko, who was standing by, seemed to be in a better mood than Miyama Chieko. After comforting her companions, she smiled and said, "Mimi is a bit introverted. This is the first time I've encountered something like this, and I'm a bit nervous. I'm sorry to have made you laugh."
"It's okay, I understand." Asano smiled and said, "I wonder if Minister Takekawa had anything to eat before he left?"
"We didn't pay attention to this." Izumizu Yoshiko thought for a moment and replied.
"Then I wonder if your company has any places where dangerous items or poisons are stored?" Tang Ze on the side looked at Kujo Hiroshi and asked.
"How is that possible? We are just an ordinary company." Kujo Hiroshi waved his hands repeatedly.
"Then I wonder if there was anything unusual when Minister Takekawa left that day?"
Tang Ze looked at the two women in front of him with a playful look in his eyes, but the fleeting sharpness still made the two of them subconsciously nervous.
It was so obvious just now that Chieko Fukayama clearly looked a little guilty.
Although Izumizu Yoshiko's explanation was reasonable, it was a bit too deliberate.
She acted a little too eager, as if she was afraid that the other person would let something slip, so she stopped him from saying anything in advance and then spoke herself.
It is obvious that the two of them must be hiding something, otherwise they would not have such a reaction.
Those who feel guilty when seeing a criminal are those who have something to hide. This is natural.
What's more, they are just ordinary people with average psychological quality.
Moreover, Tang Ze caught them off guard, making them a little panicked.
"Well...it seems not..." Chieko Fukayama lowered her head and said timidly.
"Ah, I remember something!"
Perhaps because he wanted to quickly determine the nature of the case, Kujo Hiroshi was surprisingly active at this moment: "The fire alarm was accidentally triggered. I think it was the day Takekawa died..."
"No, it's not the same day." After hearing what Kujo Hiroshi said, Izumizu Ryoko directly denied it: "Section Chief, you must have remembered it wrongly."
"Really?" Hearing Izumizu Yoshiko's confident tone, Kujo Hiroshi also became a little uncertain. "Maybe I really remembered it wrong, but it should be around this time."
"Fire alarm?" Tang Ze's expression shifted, but he didn't show anything. "Could you please tell me the specific situation?"
"It's nothing, actually. Someone just accidentally touched the fire alarm in the underground parking lot and caused a misunderstanding," said Kujo Hiroshi.
"I already understand the general situation. Could you take us to the parking lot to have a look?" Tang Ze nodded.
"Of course, I'll take you there."
Hiroshi Kujo asked Izumizu Yoshiko and the other person to go back to work, and then took them to the underground parking lot.
The two checked the surrounding environment, and then Tang Ze also saw the fire alarm with a warning sign on the wall.
"Did you discover something?" Masamichi, who was standing by, couldn't help but ask curiously when he saw Tang Ze's thoughtful expression.
"Well, I guess we've gained something, but we still need to continue investigating to find out the truth."
As Tang Ze spoke, he and Masamichi found a parking lot and got into a car parked on the side of the road.
However, before opening the car door and getting in, Tang Ze seemed to have noticed something. He looked at the building opposite and found that Izumizu Yoshiko and the other person were standing in front of the window looking at him.
In response, Tang Ze smiled, waved to the two of them, and then, without caring about their somewhat ugly expressions, got into the car and left.
It’s not the right time yet. Tang Ze still needs to have a more comprehensive understanding of what happened before making a judgment on the entire case.
However, this trip this afternoon was not in vain. At least he had some guesses about the method that led to Toshio Takekawa's bizarre death by suffocation.
After the two left, Tang Ze directly sent Masamichi back and then drove back home.
An entire afternoon is only enough to ask a few questions. After all, the journey back and forth is enough to delay the trip. Tokyo is quite large, and it would take even longer if you take the bus.
So even though there was still some time before getting off work, the two of them chose to go home directly.
Otherwise, even if I return to the Metropolitan Police Department now, I won’t be able to stay there for long, so I might as well just leave early.
As for the case, because there has been progress, Tang Ze is not as anxious as before.
Tomorrow, Tang Ze plans to meet with Matayoshi Kazuo, the man with whom Takekawa Toshio has conflicts, to see if he can learn more about the company's situation.
The other party has now been dismissed by Takekawa Toshio. If you ask him, it will be easier to get some information that others are afraid of.
After all, the company has fired him, so he naturally has no scruples, and he no longer needs to hide some things that were difficult to say before.
Therefore, it is necessary to visit Kazuo Matayoshi, the employee who was just fired.
If you have a plan in mind, you won’t be in a hurry when doing things.
After finalizing tomorrow's itinerary, Tang Ze went to the supermarket to buy some ingredients and returned home to cook.
Apart from some skills that he specifically learned and improved, Tang Ze's daily cooking skills were upgraded the fastest.
There was no way around it. Tang Ze and Ayako were used to living alone, and didn't want to hire a maid to take care of their daily lives. If they wanted to cook, they would either go out to eat or someone who was free would do it.
Tang Ze cooked quite a lot during this period. It was only after checking the panel that Tang Ze discovered that his flower-growing skills had improved by two years to nine years, and he almost got promoted.
