Chapter 989 You... Please give me a monthly ticket (▽` )
The only consolation is that this time, Jiang Xia reacted quickly enough and prevented the three murderers from succeeding.
Hattori Heiji sighed tiredly.
At the same time, he looked backstage with a sour look. He happened to see Jiang Xia and Yuan Shan and Ye walking down from there. They were wearing the same clothes... Hmm? They looked like employee uniforms. Where did they get them from?
Hattori Heiji watched the two people walking side by side from afar, and always felt that something was not right, but when he thought about it carefully, he couldn't figure it out.
After stroking his chin and thinking for a while, Hattori Heiji suddenly realized:
It was such a fun thing, but they didn't invite me to join them. That's too much...
…
Not long after, police cars and ambulances came rushing in.
Inspector Yokomizo also arrived with the car.
He was very nervous at first - just now four well-known artists had problems, and the problems hadn't been resolved yet, and here three more suddenly appeared...
"Don't worry, these three are not dead yet." Jiang Xia spent some time sorting out a large ball of murderous aura from three days ago and three large balls of fresh murderous aura with different flavors, and stuffed them into the pattern space.
Then he turned to Inspector Yokomizo.
Jiang Xia seemed to know exactly what he was thinking, and comforted the coral head in a friendly manner: "You have three 'murderers' who surrendered themselves, so the problem probably won't be too serious."
Beside him, Hattori Heiji's ears twitched: "Murderer?"
"Um."
Several people got into Inspector Yokomizo's car and headed to the police station.
On the way, Jiang Xia looked at his watch and thought it was a good time to take a bus back to Tokyo. He had picked up all the things he needed to, so he started fast-forwarding:
"I remember that in the photo of the body, when Mr. Komiyama was found, he kept his hands on his chest - the direct cause of his death should not be 'being hit on the head by a vase', but a heart attack."
When Inspector Yokomizo heard that the matter was about to be resolved, he nodded repeatedly: "Yes! As expected of you - although Komiyayama was hit on the head before his death, we found that the wound on the back of his head was not a serious injury and was not fatal. The most critical thing is heart disease."
When Hattori Heiji heard that Jiang Xia had entered the stage of solving the case, his eyes twitched and he turned around and wanted to get out of the car.
But just as he touched the door handle, he paused.
“……”First of all, the car has started.
In addition, if you think rationally, whether you leave or not, you can no longer enjoy the fun of solving the case... You might as well stop and listen, expand your knowledge base of the case, and familiarize yourself with Jiang Xia's usual ideas of solving the case.
…
Hattori Heiji stopped again as if nothing had happened, pricked up his ears and eavesdropped secretly.
"I remember that one of the people who surrendered, Mr. Katsuo Kengo, said, 'Komiyama drank too much and got mad at me.'"
Jiang Xia unconsciously looked at Officer Yokomizo's head. As the tall policeman nodded repeatedly, his coral-like curls kept bouncing like springs.
After sighing at the diversity of human hairstyles, Jiang Xia retracted his gaze and said attentively:
"First of all, a person with heart disease shouldn't drink so much. Also, putting his private life aside, Komiyama is, after all, a veteran artist who values his reputation - just like the 'king' here who refuses to drink before going on stage. Considering the time of Komiyama's death, it was right before the show started. Even if he really wanted to drink, he wouldn't drink to the point of going crazy."
…
"…During the autopsy, no alcohol was found." Inspector Yokomizo felt that he understood. "That means Katsuo Kengo lied. Is he the murderer?!"
"No. It was just because when Komiyayama rushed into his lounge to pick a fight, his body was shaking, so Katsou Kengo thought he was drunk - but in fact, that dizzy state might have been caused by being beaten." Jiang Xia said:
"Combined with the descriptions of the other two suspects, the situation at the time was probably that the deceased first went to Yumiko Shinkura's lounge and harassed her. Miss Shinkura was frightened and knocked him out with a vase.
"After she escaped from the house, Mr. Komiya woke up again. He thought that Miss Arakura rejected him because she liked the young Mr. Hoshino, so the deceased went to Mr. Hoshino's lounge again and spread the word that Miss Arakura was his... Then he was hit by a vase by Mr. Hoshino again."
Hattori Heiji: "..." This guy's head is so hard...
Jiang Xia continued: "Mr. Hoshino panicked and dragged the 'corpse' back to Komiyayama's own lounge.
"But what he didn't expect was that Komiya woke up again. This time, he took out his anger on Kengo Katsuo and broke into Kengo Katsuo's lounge, trying to bully him to relieve his stress.
"He originally thought that Kengo Katsuo was an honest middle-aged man who valued his job and would not resist. Unfortunately, he hit the other party's anger point, so he was shot in the head by the vase for the third time. He was dragged back to his own lounge."
Inspector Yokomizo imagined the scene at that time, and felt a pain on the back of his head. He couldn't help but free his hand to touch it: "...So the murderer is still Katsuo Kengo?"
"...Don't underestimate the dead man's head." Jiang Xia looked out the car window at the street scene outside, "Didn't you also say that the real cause of his death was a heart attack?"
…
The cultural center is not far from the police station.
Inspector Yokomizo was digesting the huge amount of information.
The four men had already arrived at the police station and pushed the door open to get out of the car.
Hattori Heiji listened all the way and gradually understood something.
He pondered and said, "Heart disease patients usually carry the corresponding emergency medicine with them. In the case you mentioned, either the deceased did not have time to take medicine after the onset of the disease. Or someone tampered with his medicine. If it is the latter, the person who deliberately tampered with the medicine is the most direct murderer."
When Hattori Heiji said this, a group of four people had already entered the reception room.
In addition to some policemen, there was also a middle-aged woman sitting inside.
——That was the deceased’s wife, Mrs. Komiyama.
Jiang Xia glanced at her and said in a normal voice: "I remember the relevant information said that when the deceased was found, the medicine box he had been hanging on his chest was empty.
"But a patient who is cautious enough to hang life-saving medicine around his neck is unlikely to be so careless as to forget to bring the medicine - so someone may have put fake first aid medicine in it. The deceased struggled to eat it, thinking that the symptoms would subside, but he did not expect that he would not get better until he died, and instead missed the opportunity to seek help from the outside world."
Inspector Yokomizo understood: "I'll have someone check the box right away!"
An elegant female voice came from the side: "...Oh, no need."
Mrs. Komiyama stood up from the sofa, her high heels making crisp sounds on the ground.
She heard clearly what was said just now, and Jiang Xia was looking at her while he was "reasoning" - it was obvious that he already thought that she, the "widow of the deceased", was the murderer who killed Komiyayama.
