Chapter 1271 1279 [Organizational stalker -1, -1]
Although several high school girls on the river bank didn't like murder cases very much, they hesitated for a moment and then followed reluctantly.
Suzuki Sonoko put her hands on the pergola, looked at the track diagonally above, then looked into the distance, and quickly remembered something: "Isn't this the line we took when we came here?"
Mao Lilan looked around with her in confusion, but she had no clue after looking for a long time. She was actually not very familiar with the road, especially this place she rarely visited. In her eyes, all the railways looked the same.
Jiang Xia nodded quickly: "Indeed."
At this time, a police officer nearby had collected relevant information and was reporting to Inspector Otaki:
"The deceased, Qiancun Yiyong, was ostensibly an employee of a housekeeping company, but according to the intelligence we have, he was probably engaged in fraud and had a small gang - that gang specifically targeted elderly people living alone, gained their trust, and then used fake investments to defraud large sums of money. Many victims went bankrupt because of this, and quite a few committed suicide."
Suzuki Sonoko thought of the building she had just seen and thought: "So this is a wanted criminal?"
The young police officer was a little embarrassed when he heard this and shook his head: "Our chain of evidence is not complete enough to arrest anyone. It's just that almost all the evidence vaguely points to them, so he has always been on our watch list."
Jiang Xia glanced at the crowd and then looked at the young police officer: "Was the wound on the head the cause of death?"
"That's right." The police officer nodded. "There are no other injuries on the deceased. It was a fatal blow."
Conan looked around, a little surprised: "The deceased is so burly, but there are no signs of fighting around him. It doesn't look like he did it after being anesthetized. The murderer is quite powerful."
As he said that, he couldn't help but look at Jiang Xia: Come to think of it, Jiang Xia and his baton are very consistent with the situation at the scene... Snap.
Conan raised his hand and slapped his face, bringing his distracted thoughts back on track:
Jiang Xia had been with them the whole time, so he had no time to commit the crime. Moreover, Jiang Xia preferred to beat people slowly, like a slow cooker, so how could he kill them directly... No, after all, the most important thing is, how could Jiang Xia kill someone?
Just as I was thinking about it, another police officer came over.
Next to him was a white-haired but energetic old man.
Yuanshan Heye was stunned for a moment when he saw the old man, and then he said in surprise: "You are the person who was in the car just now!"
Fa Yue De Ma was startled when he heard this, turned his head to look at her, quickly recognized her, nodded and said, "It's you."
Inspector Otaki looked at the old man, then at the high school students: "Do you know each other?"
Hattori Heiji responded, "I met him on the train not long ago. At Shiromachi Station, he helped catch a thief who was robbing with a knife." After a pause, he added, "He was very skilled."
Although it sounds like a compliment, Hattori Heiji's words seem to have other meanings - the murderer in this case seems to need to be "skillful". And...
He looked at the old man and couldn't help asking, "I remember you were holding a cane in your hand when you were in the car just now...where did it go?"
Fa Yue De Ma was startled, as if he had heard the hidden meaning in his words, and laughed loudly: "Little friend, are you doubting me? No, I'm just a witness passing by."
He pointed to the side.
Several high school students looked over and saw a young yellow-haired man being held by two policemen and forcibly dragged here.
Huangmao was very resistant to this, and he looked very anxious: "What are you doing? Let me go! I have something important to do, I don't have time to chat with you!"
Fa Yue De Ma looked over there and said to a few high school students, "I just passed by here on the bus and saw this man carrying a stick and wandering around stealthily. At the time I just thought it was a bit strange, but after getting off the bus, I heard that a murder had occurred here, so I went to the police to provide clues."
Inspector Otaki looked back and forth at the two men, and obviously felt that the yellow-haired man looked more like the murderer than a man in his seventies.
He asked Fa Yue De Ma: "Besides him, did you see the dead person or the murder scene?"
Fa Yue De Ma hummed, as if he was thinking about something seriously. After a moment, he hesitated and said, "It seems that there is indeed another person in the shadow under the bridge."
Next to him, the young policeman looked at the yellow-haired man and was suddenly startled.
He quickly found his notebook and checked it, and then made a surprising discovery.
He showed Inspector Otaki the information he had found: "The man with dyed yellow hair is named Kiritani Teruhiko. He and the deceased were colleagues in the same housekeeping company."
As he spoke, he lowered his voice a little: "According to the information we have, Kiritani may have been engaged in fraudulent activities just like the deceased."
Inspector Otaki nodded thoughtfully: "Take him back and ask for details."
The police headquarters happened to be right across the street, so we could get there in the blink of an eye.
...Speaking of which, this guy actually dared to commit a crime here. He is simply challenging the authority of the Osaka police.
…
The crime scene was under the bridge, so the blockade area was also under the bridge.
There are still people coming and going on the bridge.
Agatsuma Ryuzo was walking past this bridge while looking at his cell phone.
He found a group of people gathered at the bridge, and he was a little confused, so he wanted to go over to see what was going on. But just as he got closer, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the color of the police lights.
Ryuzo Agatsuma immediately turned back to his original route, walked straight past, and disappeared into the crowd as if nothing had happened, not wanting to have anything to do with that side.
Most of the peripheral members of the organization actually have another day job. After all, the organizational structure is huge and cannot support too many people who just eat up the funds for free. In addition, members from all walks of life are an important part of the intelligence.
Therefore, today, Agatsuma Ryuzo had to suspend his daily work and go out to keep an eye on the situation with his two subordinates.
Fortunately, among the three, he was barely a small leader, so he was assigned the easiest job - after the other two arrived, each of them would be on duty, watching the entrance and exit of Osaka Castle. He was responsible for "flexible coordination", in other words, as long as the other two were busy, he could slack off.
Agatsuma Ryuzo: "..." Although I don't know why the higher-ups are looking for a five-person tour group, but since the group dared to travel without hesitation when being targeted by the organization, they must not be professionals. This mission must not be difficult.
Thinking of this, he yawned, looked at the large restaurants on the food street in front of him, and thought for a while.
——Although you can ask the “company” to reimburse your food and beverage expenses during the mission, why should you pay for it yourself if you can eat for free?
Go to a store where you can get stuff for free, then use fake receipts to get reimbursement, and accumulate little by little, that's the way to make a fortune.
Thinking of this, he quickly walked towards one of them.
