After hearing what Uyama Hinodeomi said, Maijo Keisuke finally understood the deputy editor's concerns.
After all, the mystery of astrological murderous magic is indeed shockingly powerful, and it is reasonable to have such concerns.
"Mr. Yushan, please don't worry about the answer. I am very confident in my book."
"There will never be what you call the riddles in the sky and the answers in the trenches!"
Hearing what Makiro Keisuke said, Uyama Hiideomi nodded with satisfaction, wiped his hands clean with wet wipes again, picked up the manuscript again, and entered the story again...
The astrologer Mitarashiyoshi and his friend Ishioka Kazuki learned the details of the murder case 40 years ago.
Instead of finding a way to solve the case, it made the case even more confusing!
The cause of death of the six girls was arsenic poisoning, and metals related to constellations were also found on the dismembered bodies.
So of course, the murderer who would use this method to kill could only be the painter Umezawa Heikichi who wrote the crazy diary.
But the painter had died in the secret room more than a month ago.
so? Who is using the notes to kill people?
Who killed the painter? Who is the person who killed the painter's eldest daughter Yi Zhi?
Could the deaths of the painter and his eldest daughter Ichie be related to the six girls who died tragically in the Astrology Murder Incident?
If the real murderer was someone else, why did the murderer kill according to the artist's notes?
Since the notes are part of the evidence of the crime, why did the murderer leave his notes after the murder and be discovered by the police?
What clues are there about the depth at which the six bodies were buried and where they were buried?
Six corpses were dumped in six mines in different areas of Japan, with the longest distance reaching 900 kilometers. (picture)
In 1936, when cars were not widely available, how did the murderer dump six corpses into six mines?
The problems of the case were raised again.
Just when Mitaroshiyoshi and Ishioka Kazuki were in a state of confusion.
A woman named Misako Iida came to Mitarai with a suicide note from her father.
And it was this suicide note that became the key to unlocking the murderous magic incident of astrology!
The most important link in the entire case was opened!
The suicide note brought by Misako Iida is actually a letter of repentance.
The book of repentance mainly tells that Iida Misako's father, Takekoshi Bunjiro, served as a police officer in 1936 and became the team leader.
On my way to get off work, I happened to meet a woman squatting on the ground at the station with abdominal pain.
Out of good intentions, Takekoshi Bunjiro helped the woman go home, but he didn't expect the woman to beg Takekoshi Bunjiro to accompany him in the room.
Takekoshi Bunjiro may have been disturbed by the devil at the time.
After learning that the other party was a married widow, he had a relationship with the woman without any explanation.
Afterwards, the woman told her not to worry about the aftermath, saying that she was just lonely for a while, and asked Takekoshi Bunjiro to forget her from now on, and promised never to mention this matter to outsiders.
Takekoshi Wenjiro did something wrong and fled home in embarrassment. He didn't want to see the news the next day that the woman he had a relationship with yesterday died tragically at home.
The deceased was none other than the eldest daughter of the painter Umezawa Heikichi!
The more Takekoshi Bunjiro thought about it, the more panicked he became. In order to get rid of the suspicion of murder, he used his rights to intervene in the investigation of the case, which ultimately turned Kazue's death into an unsolved case.
Just after Takekoshi Wenjiro got rid of the suspicion, an anonymous letter suddenly appeared at home.
The letter requested Bunjiro Takekoshi to read it personally and burn it after reading it.
The general content is that a special organization called the "Pheasant Agency" has obtained evidence that Takekoshi Wenjiro killed Ichieko.
This was used to blackmail Takekoshi Bunjiro into secretly disposing of the bodies of six women.
Because it is a secret mission, Takekoshi Wenjiro is not allowed to use police cars and needs to bring his own vehicle.
The information in the letter is very detailed, and it even states the clothing and excised parts of each corpse. It clearly stipulates the abandonment location and order of abandonment of each corpse, as well as the depth of burial and the limited time.
When you make a mistake, you have to make up for it with another mistake.
Although Takekoshi Wenjiro did not kill Ichiji, he was worried that he was related to Ichiji's death.
I could only borrow a car, take a long leave, and follow the instructions in the letter to bury the six bodies in six mines.
It took more than ten days for Takekoshi Bunjiro to bury all the corpses according to the instructions in the letter.
And as the bodies he buried were discovered by the police station one after another.
The astrology murder case was also exposed along with the notes of painter Umezawa Heiyoshi!
After seeing Umezawa Heiyoshi's crazy notes, Takekoshi Bunjiro gradually realized that there was no such thing as a "Pheasant Mechanism"!
All this was just a horrific and brutal murder!
Invisibly, he became a link in the astrology murder case and an accomplice in transporting the corpse!
He was in agony about this, but he couldn't say anything because he had no way to explain clearly the real reason for Yi Zhi's death!
Mitarashiyoshi and her friend Ishioka Kazuki read Takekoshi Bunjiro's suicide note and finally figured out how the murderer buried the body in six mines.
But other problems still troubled Ishioka Kazuki.
Just when Ishioka Kazuki was confused about the case.
However, Mitarashi claimed to have seen through the truth of the case, and even boasted that within a week, he would be able to solve the truth of the Astrology Murder Case, a case that had been sealed for more than 40 years!
In the next week, Ishioka and Mi worked hard to investigate clues and investigated all the people related to the case.
Mitarai Keike sits at home like an "easy chair detective" and only goes out occasionally.
Just when Ishioka Kazuki felt that the truth of the case was getting further and further away from him.
Mitarashi Kiyoshi actually called all the people related to the case and started reasoning directly!
The first thing to be answered is the mystery of the death of painter Umezawa Heikichi!
The reason why the painter died in the locked studio was because the murderer used a thin wire to pull the door latch and locked the studio from the outside, turning it into a secret room.
As for why no footprints of the murderer were found on the snow?
It's because the murderer first tiptoed into the secret room, then wore the painter's shoes, used the snow to fill in the traces he had tiptoed through, and then used the painter's shoes to cover the footprints to achieve the effect that there were no murderer's footprints. !
He walks on his feet and his footprints are small. With just a little bit of association, you can guess that the murderer is a woman!
Next comes the second case, which is the mystery of the death of the painter's eldest daughter, Ichie.
This case is not difficult to solve.
Even a few simple sentences can explain everything.
Since Yiji would be putting on makeup in front of the dressing table in front of the murderer, without any precautions, there was only one possibility!
The murderer is an acquaintance of Ichiji! And he has a very close relationship with her!
Combined with Takekoshi Bunjiro's suicide note and the possibility that the painter's murderer was a woman, there is only one truth!
The person who had a relationship with Takekoshi Bunjiro back then was not the real Ichida, but the murderer!
The murderer disguised himself as Ichie to trick Takekoshi Bunjiro into having a relationship with him, and blamed Takekoshi's death on Takekoshi Bunjiro.
Then he used this to blackmail Takekoshi Bunjiro and ask him to help him transport the body to six mines in the island country!
The real Ichie has actually been killed by the murderer a long time ago and is hidden in the room next door to where Bunjiro Takekoshi had a relationship with the murderer!
When the two cases are combined, it is not difficult to deduce the characteristics of the murderer.
The murderer is a female, young (can disguise herself as Ichiji), and has a close relationship with Ichiji and the painter (can enter and leave their rooms at will).
Looking at all the people involved in the entire case, there are only six girls who have been dismembered!
