Scarlet Night 21
"I have already told Officer Hagiwara everything I know," Furuya Rei said tactfully, saying that he did not want to repeat himself. "No matter how many times you ask me, my answer will not change..."
"Someone reported it," Hagiwara Kenji turned a deaf ear to it and continued to read the records in his notebook, "Private detective Toru Amuro was not just passing by. He accepted a commission. The client asked him to investigate the murder of Ken Minetani 20 years ago. He suspected that Ken Minetani did not die at the hands of Sugita Taro, the criminal of Case 210, but because he had a very important thing in his hands at that time and had to hand it over to a doctor working in the hospital. At the same time, because of business reasons, Ken Minetani occasionally helped deal with some medical waste in the hospital..."
"Wait a minute!" Furugaya Rei gestured to mute the phone, his eyes widened. He looked around - Ishii Kazuki next to him gave him a look that said "don't worry, it's safe" and raised the signal jammer in his hand. Furugaya Rei touched his pocket and found that this guy's habit of stealing things had not changed at all. "Who reported it?"
The beginning was right, but the rest went completely off track like a story chain. Furiya Rei extracted the information from this passage. Even after communicating with Huiren Social, he did not know the full name of Fengya Jian, not to mention that the other party died in Case No. 210. This informant must be an insider...
"I don't know," Ishii Kazuki shrugged, "Someone left it outside the police station this morning, but the surveillance camera didn't capture it."
At the entrance of the police station, the police officer created a blind spot for surveillance and disguised the report letter he took out of his pocket as a thief he had picked up. "How about it, Mr. Amuro?" he said with a righteous look on his face. "Would you mind providing us with your client's information and contact information? We suspect he may be related to the case..."
"Sorry," said Furuya Rei with a wry smile, "I was just passing by." Now was not the time to give out Rum. "To be honest, I think the person who wrote this report is more suspicious. If it is written so clearly, he must be a participant or an insider. Of course, he could also be a family member of Minetani Ken. I have heard him reveal relevant information..."
"Minetani Ken's wife died early, and his only relative, his daughter, was imprisoned seven years ago for abuse, extortion, murder and other crimes," Hagiwara Kenji provided new information at the right time. "After receiving the report letter this morning, we urgently interrogated Minetani's daughter, but unfortunately, she said she knew nothing about her father's work. She only knew that her father often received some construction contracts and waste disposal jobs..."
Did he also combine the two jobs together? When Rei Furiya thought about the six bodies buried in the wall, he felt sick in his throat. "So, this Ken Minetani is the victim of Case 210?"
"Not necessarily," Hagiwara Kenji shook his head, his usually frivolous face showing seriousness, "We interrogated Sugita Taro..."
"But he said that if he didn't kill someone, he wouldn't admit it."
Ishii Kazuki added to his colleague's words with a smile.
