"Disappeared?" Hearing this description, Gao Yuan felt a little surprised: "Logically speaking, a gambler can be inhumane for the sake of gambling money. As long as there is a slight possibility, he should not take the initiative to apply for personal bankruptcy, thus letting go He almost fell in love with Ms. Cai..." In this way, Gao Yuan analyzed: "Moreover, the so-called 'disappearance' means that we have never heard anything from that person since then?"
"You're right. After we never agreed to their marriage, at first, that guy seemed to be crazy. He tried every means to harass Xiaocai and kept using the child in her belly as a basis. , tried every means to get Xiaocai to marry him first, regardless of our opinions for the time being. But at that time, if we hadn’t locked Xiaocai in the house forcibly, we wouldn’t have let her go anywhere. With her thoughts at the time , I almost agreed." Listening to Gao Yuan's words, Mitarai Munexu replied: "But then, as far as we know, after he learned that his child died shortly after birth, because there was nothing to restrain Xiaocai, He quit his job, filed for personal bankruptcy and was never heard from again."
"But, he's not dead, right?" After hearing this, Gao Yuan's thoughts suddenly became clear, and then he asked: "He quit his job and applied for personal bankruptcy. Logically speaking, he will not disappear. ', at least he is still alive in the world. He will do this because he is either too annoyed by debt collectors or he has other plans. Otherwise, if he is really driven to the point of desperation by debt, he will commit suicide directly. Well, why bother with resigning and filing for personal bankruptcy?
"However, although filing for personal bankruptcy can relieve the impact of debts on normal life to a certain extent, it also means that he will no longer be able to borrow money as before. He himself is living on loans to support loans. He also had a gambling habit. As a result, he quit his job as a professor. It was almost impossible to find such a job in the future. He basically gave up his future life——
“Such a mentality is not like that of a gambler!
"As a gambler, as long as he has a little capital, he dares to risk all his wealth to gamble. Such self-destructive measures as resigning and filing for personal bankruptcy are obviously not something a gambler can do. And afterwards, he Or disappear..." At this point, Gao Yuan seemed to understand something, and then looked at Mitarai Munexu seriously, and asked: "Does he want to change his appearance and start over?" With that said, Gao Yuan felt that many things could be said. It makes sense, but the premise is that the response from the Mitarai family can match my guess——
"You have a very clear understanding of gamblers..." In this regard, after hearing Gao Yuan's analysis, Mitarai Munexu nodded affirmatively, first praised him, and then said: "Yes, they are A group of people who will never forget that feeling once they have been on the gambling table——
“Those who win want to win again, and those who lose want to make a comeback. In the end, even if they gamble until they lose everything, they are unwilling to leave. As long as there is a chance, they can come up with all kinds of unimaginable means to find a chance to make a comeback.
"He did change his identity. After he filed for personal bankruptcy, he got a new identity from nowhere, so he completely gave up his original identity, and then almost used this new identity to try to join the Mitarai family's industry , to get close to Xiaocai.
"Fortunately, he just changed his identity and did not undergo plastic surgery, so this method was quickly discovered by us, but after that, his new identity was never used again. But, just because of this..."
"Because the new identity has not been used again, it is impossible to determine whether he changed his identity again after that, and maybe this time he really changed his face directly, and then found a way to return to Cai Cai Is this the lady's side?" Gao Yuan said following Mitarai Munexu's words.
"That's right. Although so many years have passed, there is always a feeling that that guy is still looking for opportunities..." Mitarai Munexuo responded.
In response, Gao Yuan nodded silently, then glanced at the entrance of the cave behind the two people in front of him, then sighed and asked: "In that case, I wonder if you are willing to answer my next question..." Currently So far, what Mitarai Munexu said is very different from his conjecture. Therefore, the possibility that what he conjectured is true has been further increased. However, there are still a few steps to prove the possibility of the entire conjecture. A key question needs to be answered urgently, but these questions... looking at Mitarai Zongxu and Mitarai Rui in front of them.
Judging by the time, Mitarashi Rui was only a child of about ten years old back then, so it was Mitarashi Zongxu... His brows were slightly furrowed, and Gao Yuan felt a little nervous——
"But it doesn't matter." Mitarai Munexuo replied calmly. In response, Gao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked: "The cause of the illegitimate child's death!" Hearing this, Mitarashi Zongxu raised his eyebrows slightly, and then asked with a calm expression: "What do you mean?"
"Well...how should I say this?" Faced with Mitarai Munexuo's response, Gao Yuan pretended to think for a moment, and then said: "Let me first talk about my views on what I know now." , Gao Yuan looked at Mitarai Zongxu and Mitarai Rui in front of him, and saw that they did not express any objection to his words, so Gao Yuan said: "Everything must start from more than twenty years ago. And the cause of everything was the beginning of Miss Cai's relationship with the university professor.
"As we just talked about, the university professor had a purpose when he fell in love with Ms. Cai. After that, although you saw through his methods and did not let him succeed, because the child was no longer able to fight fell, so as a last resort, the child was born.
"Although according to what you said, the child died later, so that person gave up. But as for what happened next, I always feel a little strange——
"For example, where is the child's body?" As he said this, Mitarashi Zongxu's expression was calm, while Mitarashi Rui's expression changed slightly.
In this regard, Gao Yuan continued: "Of course, it seems that you can't verify what happened next, so let's analyze it from what happened recently——
"For example, what happened to Miss Kyoko!
"From the perspective of outsiders, the former president, Mr. Mitarai Haruka, bought the apartment for Miss Kyoko, and also arranged for Mr. Kizui and others to take care of Miss Kyoko's life. Such an attitude is hard not to think of the relationship between them. Nothing else matters.
"Although in this situation, many people will make wild guesses. But if you know some inside information about the Mitarai family, and add the approximate age of Miss Kyoko now...
"Tell me, if someone knew that there was an illegitimate child among the third generation of the Mitarashi family, how would they view Miss Kyoko's incident?
"Also, the illegitimate son is said to have passed away, but he has never seen the body. As outsiders, what do you think?"
"I understand..." At this moment, when Gao Yuan said this, Mitarai Zongxu closed his eyes, interrupted Gao Yuan's words, then looked at Mitarai Rui and said: "Xiao Rui, it seems that only a little He had already guessed this from the clues. It can be seen that there is no need to hide it from him." Hearing this, Mitarashi Rui seemed to feel that he could no longer hide it, so he lowered his head, sighed slightly, and took a step forward. He said to Gao Yuan: "Mr. Mingzhi, since the matter has come to this, I will tell you clearly about Miss Kyoko..." Seeing that the other party was willing to tell the truth frankly, Gao Yuan nodded and began to listen silently. The other party’s story——
"The cause of everything lies in the death of my father." Slowly, Mitarizui began to tell what happened: "My father and Miss Kyoko met a few years ago. At that time, after I learned about my father When I was asked to take charge of the business in Tokyo and buy the apartment where Kyoko lived, I asked my father——
"What kind of commission would allow my father to spend such a large sum of money on behalf of a detective to help her keep her residence?
"And my father told me that because of Miss Kyoko's help, he solved a problem that he had had for more than 20 years, so in order to repay Miss Kyoko, he bought the apartment for her so that she could live there forever. There. At the same time, when I mentioned more than 20 years ago, I naturally thought of my sister’s incident.
"So, when I asked my father: 'Is it something related to my sister?', my father nodded to me but did not continue to explain.
"But I know that twenty years ago, the only thing that could be said to be troubled by my father was the whereabouts of the scumbag who deceived my sister back then! Unfortunately, Miss Kyoko will forget everything as soon as she falls asleep, and my father He didn't tell me the whole truth, so in the end, I just guessed and didn't know the specific situation.
"But later, when my father was thinking about making a will, I overheard him leak that he was worried that the terms of the will would eventually be exploited by others. I understood that he was worried that that person would I took this opportunity to come back, so even in the terms of my father's will, there was no property distributed to my sister and her family who had been away from home for more than 20 years." Well... After hearing this, Gao Yuan looked calm and continued to wait for the other party's words. Narration, but I can't help but sigh in my heart: Are you sure your father is worried about the scumbag gambler who deceived Ms. Cai back then, rather than some more terrifying force?
Therefore, what happened next was actually caused by the misunderstanding of the Mitarai family?
"I know that because the guy had never seen the body of his child, he always thought that his sister had deliberately hidden the child, so he never gave up. So, after my father passed away, I thought that no matter what, he must put the child away. That guy was found, so I took advantage of Miss Kyoko..." Mitarashi Rui seemed a little excited and admitted the whole thing. Then he looked at Gao Yuan with burning eyes and said decisively: "You are right, that time The incident was an experiment to see if certain methods could be used to make detectives like Miss Kyoko misunderstand her identity... If the experiment could succeed, using the misunderstandings of outsiders and Miss Kyoko's own understanding of her life experience, perhaps I can catch that guy out.
"But I didn't expect that a detective would see through it halfway through the experiment..." Upon hearing this answer, Gao Yuan sighed helplessly, then closed his eyes for a moment, thought for a moment, and then said : "Miss Rui, but you still haven't answered the illegitimate child... No, it seems that it is indeed an illegitimate daughter. What was the cause of death of the illegitimate daughter? Moreover, Miss Rui, it seems that you and Cai The relationship with the lady is very good, so do you know why Ms. Aya left the Mitarai family and didn't come back for so many years? Have you ever searched for their whereabouts in the past twenty years?" As he said that, he asked a key question. Did the other party do it? After giving the answer, Gao Yuan couldn't help but said: "Well, since you have been coming to this cave from the beginning, why not go in and have a look?" At this point, he saw a black cat slowly walking in the night. He walked out and rubbed at Gao Yuan's feet.
So, just in time, Gao Yuan picked up the cat and walked straight to the iron gate of the cave behind them. After arriving at the entrance of the cave, he let the cat get in through the gap between the iron gate and the mountain wall - seeing this , Mitarai Rui was quite surprised.
As for Mitarai Munexu, at this moment, his gaze was looking towards the depths of the forest with some doubts, as if he felt something, but he only glanced at it and did not continue to look further.
Soon, after the cat got into the cave, with the sound of a mechanism, the latch behind the iron door was opened from the inside.
After pushing the door open and entering, Gao Yuan directly turned on the light switch inside. Immediately, dim yellow light illuminated the scene in the cave - the shrine containing Mitarai Aya's spiritual tablet suddenly appeared in the deepest part of the cave.
"Sister, sister's..." Suddenly, after seeing the shrine, Mitarashi Rui was suddenly stunned. He never thought that this scene would be here now——
"I don't care why Ms. Cai's spirit is here..." Regarding this, Gao Yuan walked straight to the shrine and put the words written on it.
He picked up the spiritual tablet with the words "The Spiritual Tablet of the Elder Daughter Mitarashi Aya" and displayed the base in front of Mitarashi Rui and Mitarashi Soxu - only to see that under the base of the spiritual tablet, there was actually written text: "The elder of the deceased. A woman’s last wish is for her and her virgins to stay here forever.” Because this text was written under the base of the spirit tablet, Gao Yuan did not notice it at first. It was later when Kuroba Kaito came here that he was surprised. found.
"Based on the text, the only person who can call Ms. Aya the 'old eldest daughter' is Mr. Mitarai Haruka, the former president. And the child born between Ms. Aya and an outsider can be called an 'outdoor daughter.' That is the so-called illegitimate daughter. Mr. Haruji Mitarai complied with Ms. Aya's last wish and allowed her to stay here with her concubine..." Seriously, Gao Yuan asked: "In other words, that illegitimate daughter The woman's body should be in this cave! And Ms. Rui, after learning that the former president hid a fortune in a cave near the villa, why did you find it so quickly? Don't you know that person? The truth about the death of the illegitimate daughter!”
