Chapter 2120 2128 [Case Closed]
Taichi Tomizawa: "I have been lacking inspiration for writing novels recently, so I often go to play pachinko to relax. I went there last night, and heard the match broadcast on the radio in the store. I usually live in Osaka, and there is no TV broadcast of the match in Osaka, so I could only listen to the radio.
"And when the incident happened yesterday, I left a message on the landline - according to Yuzo, I couldn't have called my dad and been on the phone at the same time."
“…”
Inspector Yokomizo was gradually convinced.
Then he became confused: "So who is lying? Why don't you three come back to the police station with me and we will investigate slowly."
The three brothers were stunned and immediately became anxious: How could they pack up and take everyone away when they couldn’t find the murderer? Will the police be able to solve the case?
Tomizawa Yuzo suddenly remembered something and rushed around the police to Jiang Xia's side: "I've seen your crime scenes when I attended a cocktail party before. You can definitely find the real culprit, right!"
Jiang Xia: “…” The previous cocktail party? I have no recollection of it at all.
But he had heard what he needed to hear, and it was time to solve the case. He looked at this returning customer who might have received his business card twice, and nodded: "The murderer should be your eldest brother."
Henggou Police Department: "!"
There aren't many detectives in Shizuoka Prefecture, and he almost forgot that there was an option to poke the detective to drop the answer with one click.
Fortunately, it's not too late to make up for it now. Inspector Yokomizo's eyes lit up: "Tell me in detail."
Tomizawa Taichi finally came to his senses and said, "Don't spit blood on me!"
Jiang Xia looked at him and said, "Did you really hear the radio broadcast in the pachinko parlor at 11:30 last night?"
Fu Ze Taichi snorted coldly: "Of course."
Jiang Xia: "But according to regulations, all pachinko rooms cannot be open after 11pm - I can see that you don't play it often, at least you haven't played it late at night, and you haven't had the experience of being cleared out by staff at closing time."
Inspector Yokomizo was stunned and looked at Jiang Xia quietly: "..."Wait, so how did you know?
But now we are working together to catch the criminals, so let's just pretend we didn't hear this little thing. Inspector Yokomizo cleared his throat quickly, and before anyone else could react, he turned the attention to the murderer: "There is indeed such a rule, your alibi does not hold at all."
As expected, Taichi Tomizawa had no time to exploit other people's loopholes. He panicked and patched up his own hole: "Well, I made a mistake! In fact, I left the pachinko house at about 11 o'clock. I heard the broadcast in the taxi on the way home.
"Haha, I just have a bad memory and accidentally mixed up things. You guys don't think I'm the murderer just because of this, do you?" Fuzawa Taichi said awkwardly, "And don't forget, I have an alibi. I left a recording on the phone when the crime happened!"
Jiang Xia: "I was just about to say this - at 11:30 last night, there was a power outage in this area due to heavy rain. During a power outage, the built-in battery of the landline phone can ensure the time and call functions, but the answering machine will not work at all.
"In other words, your message was not left at 11:34 p.m., but earlier.
"You broke your TV in advance, and then last night, after learning the result of the game, you sneaked into your Fuzawa family's villa, adjusted the landline time to 11:34, and left a message in it. Then you ambushed nearby, and as soon as your father went out, you rushed out and beat him to death.
"The deceased's body was covered in blood from the beating, but only the left wrist was empty. There used to be a watch there, but the murderer took it away - because the watch was equipped with the eavesdropping device you had hidden in advance.
"You knew everything about the game result and the time your father left the Suzuki family villa through this watch. You took it away because you were worried that the police would find the device inside and suspect you."
Tomizawa Taichi: “…”
After saying that just now, he had prepared many more things to say - such as "How would I know my dad would suddenly run to Suzuki's house", "How would I know the result if I didn't watch the game?", "How could I possibly intercept my dad so accurately if I don't have the third eye" ... and so on.
However, before he could throw out a combo, his opponent had already predicted all his problems in one go and blocked all his moves.
Fu Ze Taichi felt his eyes go dark, but as a murderer, his pride made him hold on and say, "You, you..."
"I have no evidence. These are just third-rate detective stories I wrote?" The hateful detective once again predicted his prediction:
"The bloody clothes you wore when you committed the crime, your father's watch, and the record of buying the bug should all still be there. The waves on the beach here are very gentle. Even if you throw the clothes into the sea, they will most likely be washed back to the shore. And if the blood on the clothes gets your car wet, it will be difficult to explain if someone finds you. So you should have stuffed them on the side of the road. As long as we test the ingredients on them and trace your purchase records..."
thump--
Fuzawa Taichi sat down on the sofa and laughed tiredly: "Okay, stop talking. I was the one who wrote the third-rate crime script - my biggest mistake was that I actually ignored the ten minutes of power outage."
The two younger brothers looked at him in shock: "It's really you, why are you..."
Tomizawa Taichi said coldly: "Of course it's because I want to get his inheritance as soon as possible, so that I can be a novelist without any worries."
Fuze Tatsuji was stunned: "But as long as you want, you can join the company at any time. The entire consortium will be yours, why do you..."
Taichi Tomizawa: "Because I've been having a really hard time lately. Originally my royalties were enough to live on, but recently my manuscripts have been rejected one after another, and my savings have been used up.
"I went to my father and wanted him to help me with some emergency expenses. But when I mentioned this, he smiled smugly. I then realized that it was because of his pressure on the publishing house that the publishing house rejected my manuscript!
"Maybe the old man wants to force me to take over the consortium in this way. Haha, since I'm going to take over the consortium anyway, why don't I do it my own way? As long as I kill him, the consortium will be inherited by me. If another brother goes to jail for this, I can get more inheritance."
Maya Hashimoto looked at this bad eldest brother, then looked at the second and third brothers of the Tozawa family who were standing beside them in a daze, and suddenly felt that she understood Usa's intention.
"Perhaps this is not a warning to Suzuki Ayako, but paving the way for this subordinate." Hashimoto Maya hid in a corner, secretly doing reading comprehension, "A picky father-in-law died, and because her eldest brother was imprisoned, her fiancé instantly had the opportunity to compete for the consortium, and the family property doubled... Hiss, I don't know how much of Suzuki Ayako's efforts were involved. It turns out that there is no one who is easy to deal with under Usa."
