Chapter 11601168 [Case Closed]
Genda Takanori followed the detective and the policeman and strolled around his house, breaking out in a cold sweat.
——In addition to the two bugs in the landline and the vase, they found another bug of the same type as the one in the landline from the trash can.
After that, I entered the study and the search equipment responded again.
Following the search, I found that the source came from a crystal ball on the bookshelf - under the crystal ball was a soft cushion filled with cotton. After tearing it open, a small eavesdropping device was revealed.
"This crystal ball..." Mao Lilan suddenly discovered something. The more she looked at it, the more familiar it looked. She said in surprise:
"Isn't this the 'lucky crystal' sold by the female fortune teller in front of the Haido station building? I heard that her predictions are very accurate. I wanted to go and take a look with Sonoko before."
Jiang Xia: "..." Come to think of it, when we were at Zhujiao's house yesterday, the fortune teller seemed to have said that he had good luck recently. Just as he finished speaking, Mrs. Zhujiao died, and then the fortune teller inexplicably inherited a large sum of money...
I was secretly wondering if there was really anything magical about the fortune tellers in this world.
Before he could come to a conclusion, Inspector Yumio's expression suddenly became serious: "Wait, this crystal ball pad... although the color is different, when the deceased was found, she had been holding the same one tightly in her hand!"
As he spoke, he reached into his inner pocket and quickly pulled out an evidence bag: "This is it."
"Can we open it and take a look?" Jiang Xia asked meaningfully, although he felt that a careless police captain who would carry physical evidence around would probably not care about such a small matter.
Sure enough, soon, Inspector Gongchang put on gloves and tore open the cloth pad.
Under the inquiring gaze of the crowd, something hidden inside the cloth cushion really came out.
But it was not the eavesdropping device they had imagined before.
It is a piece of red plastic. Its color and material...
"This is the base of the Guan Yu keychain, which was cut off separately." Xuan Tian Longde asked in surprise, "Why would you hide something like this?"
Several detectives and police inspectors showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
Then they looked at each other like Riddlers, as if they understood something very important.
…
"Hello? No, no, I don't suspect you, I just want to ask you about the situation." Inspector Yumio called the three suspects separately in his capacity as a police officer.
Having been a policeman for so many years, he has already developed the attributes of a riddle man. Surrounded by a group of high school students, Inspector Yuminaga cleverly conveyed a piece of information.
He first asked some questions related to Genda Ryutoku.
Then, under the other party's questioning, he "helplessly" revealed a little bit of the investigation progress:
"Don't panic, just relax and live your life normally. Haha, to be honest, we have already identified a major suspect, but we are unable to arrest him for the time being due to insufficient evidence. However, a search warrant will be issued tomorrow, and they will go to his house to search for evidence. Once he is arrested, your suspicion will naturally be cleared."
…
After making three similar calls, Chief Inspector Gongchang breathed a sigh of relief and gave a thumbs-up to the detectives:
Done.
—— Genda Ryuunori’s house was indeed very easy to invade, and anyone could come in and take a look around. But at the same time, the invader would inevitably leave various traces.
Normally no one would care about it, but when "tomorrow" comes, assuming that it is true as Inspector Yuminaga said, the police will come and conduct a thorough search, they will definitely find a lot of problems.
In order to erase all traces, those guys with something to hide might take advantage of this "last chance" tonight to destroy the evidence.
Inspector Yumio looked at the detectives in front of him and said expectantly, "After tonight, this troublesome case should be completely over."
…
That night.
Three dark figures, a few minutes apart, quietly approached the door of Xuantian's house and slipped into this old house with almost no security measures.
One of them found a spare key that had been prepared in advance and opened the door.
After entering the room, he glanced at the bedroom diagonally above him, sneered murderously, and walked quietly to the bedroom next door.
After a while, the second shadow arrived. Shadow No. 2 didn't know the existence of the senior. When he arrived at the door, he tried to turn the doorknob and was surprised to find that the door was open. So he happily entered the house and went straight to the study.
The last black shadow to arrive, No. 3, was also unaware of the existence of the first two, so he entered the house in surprise, just like the second black shadow.
However, he did not go in. Instead, he went straight to the entrance, found the vase on the shoe rack, and reached in to search.
No. 3 was anxiously looking for the bug he had hidden and trying to retrieve it when someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
"!!" The Feng Shui master was so frightened that he almost jumped up, his hand got stuck in the vase, and a scream almost came out of his mouth, but it was covered by someone before he could.
The terrifying face of Inspector Yumio appeared in the night, and he raised his hand and gestured to him to keep quiet.
…
The same thing happened in the study.
——The fortune teller was caught red-handed when he tried to retrieve the bug he had hidden in the crystal ball cushion.
The two were quickly and quietly sent away. Outside in the car full of police officers, they each showed a look of remorse and confessed to similar actions:
"I, I really don't have any bad intentions. I secretly installed the eavesdropping device just to eavesdrop on some relevant information of the client, and then when we meet next time, I will inadvertently say those things and pretend that I 'calculated' them myself, so as to improve the trust between each other, so that Mr. Xuantian can buy some more expensive things from me without worry..."
The two have little to do with arson.
The Feng Shui master did tell Genda Ryuunori that "Haito-cho is an auspicious location", but he did not collude with Dr. Morokaku. It was just that Dr. Morokaku heard their conversation with a bug and arranged the action on that day.
…
As the two metaphysical scammers left the stage, there was suddenly only the last metaphysical scammer left in the room...well, there was only one last important suspect left.
Zhu Jiaoming took the lamp oil and went upstairs quietly, then stopped at the stairs and observed secretly.
Finding that the bedroom door was indeed closed, he quietly walked into the next room and first sprinkled the lamp oil along the wooden table to the wall of the next bedroom. Then he returned to the table, took out a piece of flammable toilet paper, wrapped it on the light bulb and stuck it on. Finally, he inserted a match between the toilet paper and the light bulb.
When a 100-watt incandescent lamp is lit, its surface temperature can reach nearly 200 degrees Celsius.
It won't be long before the match suddenly catches fire, ignites the surrounding toilet paper, and then violent sparks fall into the lamp oil, spreading the fire to the next bedroom. The rapid fire will easily burn the "arsonist" Genda Ryunosuke and those who are watching him to see if he is sleepwalking.
