The results of the investigation are as follows:
Guan Lin returned to Dongyang the day after the funeral.
Kuwahara quit her job as a model, opened a small bar, and became the proprietress. Some people say that the funds she used to open the bar came from the breakup fee given to her by Tajima. Kuwahara was probably the only person who benefited from that incident, right?
The owner of a health pharmacy was ordered to cease operations for violating drug laws. Since he did not know that he was going to use the potassium cyanate to kill people when he sold it to Tajima, he was not criminally responsible. It is said that he was tired of the city and planned to return to his hometown.
The members of the New Century Club still have a cold attitude toward Tajima.
Among the older members, some advocated expelling Tajima from membership, but this was not adopted.
Then, Jiang Shangfeng disappeared.
Tian Chunda wondered if Jiang Shangfeng would go to Dongyang? Since Jiang Shangfeng was convinced that Guan Lin killed the Tajima couple, Guan Lin returned to Dongyang, and Jiang Shangfeng would naturally follow him to Dongyang. Moreover, Jiang Shangfeng said "he is going to the north." When mentioning the north, it is natural for people to think of Dongyang.
"Jiang Shangfeng went to Dongyang." Tian Chunda was so convinced.
What is Jiang Shangfeng doing in Dongyang? Going to meet Guan Lin?
Tian Chunda gradually became anxious. Regarding that incident, did the police neglect anything important? Is the police negligence related to Jiang Shangfeng’s disappearance?
As the doubts spread endlessly, Tian Chunta felt increasingly restless. Tian Chunda decided to go to Jin to meet the director.
"You said you were going to track down Jiang Shangfeng's whereabouts?" Director Wang looked at Tian Chunda with a troubled expression.
"No?" Tian Chunda said. "Jiang Shangfeng was convinced that the incident was a murder and disappeared while he was looking for evidence, so..."
"But, as a result of your investigation of that incident, didn't you find no clues to the murder?"
The director looked at Tian Chunda. At the search meeting, the person who advocated forced suicide was indeed Tian Chunta. In fact, it could be said that it was the unanimous view of all the police.
"Yes." Tian Chunda nodded and said. "At present, I still think that the incident was a suicide. However, I am worried about whether there was any oversight? Maybe the oversight is related to Jiang Shangfeng's disappearance."
Tian Chunda thought of Jiang Shangfeng's face full of confidence. Why on earth was he so confident?
"It just so happened that the incident at hand was over and I had some free time, so I wanted to investigate that incident again and track down Jiang Shangfeng's whereabouts."
"Hmm..." The director pondered silently. Tian Chunda could see from his expression that the possibility of being allowed to do so was very low, because it was almost impossible to re-investigate closed cases, not to mention that no new facts had been discovered.
"I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request." The director said. "I really don't understand why you want to pursue that incident again. If Jiang Shangfeng finds evidence that can prove that it was a murder and was killed because of it, not only is it necessary to investigate, but it must be investigated in detail. However, at present, it is still It is impossible to conclude that Jiang Shangfeng has been killed, or even whether he is really missing, so I cannot agree to let you investigate."
"I understand."
Tian Chunda nodded, because what the director said made sense. It was inconvenient for the director to issue an investigation order before Jiang Shangfeng's body was found.
When Tian Chunda was about to leave the director's office, the director seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, you haven't had a vacation for a long time, right?"
"Yes."
"Then you can take a vacation."
"Are you going on vacation right now?"
"Yes, take leave immediately, take three days off, so you can go to Dongyang?" The director looked at Tian Chunda and said with a smile.
Tian Chunda took the train to Dongyang City. While waiting for the train at the station, Tian Chunda stopped in front of a small shop. Originally, he wanted to buy the train timetable. However, when he was looking at the dazzling array of weekly magazines, he was attracted by one of the weekly magazines and forgot to buy the timetable.
That weekly magazine was not very famous, but the title "The Truth About Suicide" on the cover deeply attracted Sumita Chunda's attention. Tian Chunda picked up the weekly and turned to that page to read.
The headline "Genius Painter Forced to Die for Love" first caught his eye. It was indeed that incident. However, just like that, Tian Cunda wouldn't be so surprised, because it was possible to rewrite the news in the newspaper.
However, when he saw the subtitle behind the big title, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide in surprise. Because that subtitle is so shocking. "The day before the incident, our reporter met with the Tajima couple, so our reporter knows the truth of the incident."
The day before the incident, in addition to Guan Lin, the Tajima couple met with other people. This was the first time Tian Cunda heard about it. Could this be true? Tian Cunda thought so while buying the weekly magazine.
As soon as he got in the car, Tian Chunda immediately opened the weekly magazine and read it.
That day, I (a reporter) went to visit Hong Limin at a hotel in the suburbs of Nanguang. I heard that the relationship between Tajima and his wife had broken down, so I went to find out the truth. In response to my inquiries, Hong Limin responded with "no comment." Since she ran away from home and was crying, she thought that the relationship between husband and wife had deteriorated to the point where divorce was necessary. However, would Tajima agree to divorce? Because I was eager to know the answer, I went to visit the Tajima family overnight. When I arrived at the Tajima family, it was almost midnight. If I were ordinary people, I would have gone to bed by this time. However, the Tajima family was still brightly lit.
I pressed the bell, but no one answered. Just when I was considering whether to ring the bell again, the door opened and Tajima walked out. I will probably never forget Tajima’s face at that time in my life, because his eyes were bloodshot and his face was full of bloodshot eyes. With a tired face and a tight mouth, he looked like a kid. Just when I almost fainted from fright, Tajima said in an excited tone: "I am busy preparing for tomorrow and don't want to see anyone." After that, With a "bang", the door was closed.
After the incident happened, I realized that the phrase "prepare for tomorrow" had a terrible connotation. However, I didn't know it at that time. If I had known it, I would have been able to take precautions. I met the murderer, and the murderer warned me to kill him. , killing people by forcing them to commit suicide——
The note continues, but what follows are just notes.
When Tian Chunda put down the weekly magazine, the first question that came to his mind was - is this true? Since this is not a weekly with good reviews, it is very likely to be nonsense, and "looking like a kid" is a bit exaggerated.
"Preparing for tomorrow" is a premonition of the murder. This statement is too arbitrary.
But what if it was true that he met the Tajima couple before the incident?
