Since it was unclear from Ye Gengyi's expression whether he had anything to add, for the sake of caution, Shiratori Rensaburo asked again:
"Mr. Ye, have you discovered anything else..."
Other things?
Ye Gengyi said 'hmm' in confusion, observing Shiratori Rensaburo's emotions calmly.
He wanted to determine whether the topic the other party planned to continue talking about was more about the sniper case or the FBI.
Shiratori Rensaburo considered for a moment, lowered his voice and said: "As for the bullet casings and dice left at the scene, Mr. Ye, do you think it is because it is related to Mr. Spencer's case that the FBI deliberately concealed this?" Part of the news?"
oh? Already wary of the FBI? But don’t go too far...after all, these people don’t have any acting skills...
Ye Gengyi shook his head slightly: "No, I think it's just the opposite."
"On the contrary?" Shiratori Rensaburo was stunned.
"Well, let's think about it again. It's still an analysis of the FBI's previous suspicious behavior."
Ye Gengyi said:
"Assuming they deliberately concealed the number of people at the first sniper point, why are they willing to tell them now?"
"Uh... isn't it because Hunter is dead?" In such a short period of time, Shiratori Rensaburo would not have forgotten the conclusions reached from the previous discussion.
"That's only part of the reason," Ye Gengyi reminded: "If you think about it carefully, even if they didn't produce this evidence just now, just looking at Hunter's pathological autopsy report, would the police have to give priority to shooting Hang?" The investigation was conducted from the perspective of Hunter’s accomplice.”
"It seems...that's right..." Shiratori Rensaburo nodded.
Because in retrospect, whether it is the identity of the suspect or the scope of the suspects and targets, the source of all intelligence is the FBI.
"The secret code and Hunter's motivation for revenge may not be complicated."
Ye Gengyi analyzed:
"All actions of James Blake are under the remote control of FBI headquarters. Taking clues as an example, these several clue updates ultimately point to Timothy Hunter and his associates, so... we can completely assume that, The FBI wanted to start the investigation from the Silver Star Medal from the beginning, but now they have just returned to the old path...This means that they also do not know the meaning of the dice and bullet casings."
"I see……"
Shiratori Rensaburo suddenly realized.
Only then was the thought of James Blake, Judith Telling, and Andrey Kammer being almost regarded as conspirators.
The reason why Ye Gengyi didn't take advantage of the situation to add fuel to the fire and continued to stab them in the back was very simple.
It should be noted that the relationship between the FBI and the Metropolitan Police Department should not be too close. It is easier to obtain information if they are more distant.
If Shiratori Rensaburo's vigilance is overly aroused and his awareness of prevention is too strict, he will have to worry about whether the three FBI people can handle it with their brains.
While the two were talking, Megure Thirteen, who had just finished a phone call with Ayanokouji Fumimaro not far away, had not put down his phone when the ringtone started ringing again.
"I'm Megure...what did you say?!"
The exclamation made Ye Gengyi and Shiratori Rensaburo turn their heads to look.
I saw Mumu Shisan say a few words of "Uh-huh" with an ugly face, and then walked over in a hurry.
"Police department?" Shiratori Rensaburo cast a questioning look.
"Something happened again!"
Megure Thirteen said solemnly: "I just received a call from the Gongchang Police Department. Scott Green's motorcycle shop caught fire... Because there are many fire points at the scene, the possibility of human error is very high. In addition, In addition, a charred corpse was found in the room, which should be Scott Green."
…
…
Kyoto Prefecture, high-end hotel.
Ayanokouji Fumimaro, who had not yet learned that Scott Green was dead, had just finished his phone call with Megure Thirteen and immediately found Jack Waltz who was under their protection.
Hotel conference room.
A map was spread out on the table.
Ayanokouji Fumimaro marked several sniper points with an oil-based pen. Based on the information provided by Megure Thirteen, he looked at the man sitting in front of him and asked:
"Mr. Waltz, does anything about the Asakusa area and the numbers on the dice remind you of anything?"
Jack Waltz was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and he stared at the policeman in front of him: "Are you kidding me? What I want is to leave Japan as soon as possible, not to guess riddles here!"
Ayanokouji Fumimaro gave a wry smile, held up his 'good friend' who was so frightened that he rolled off his shoulders, put it in his pocket and said:
"Mr. Waltz, please calm down first. We know what you are thinking, but the current case really needs your help."
"..."
Jack Waltz frowned, crossed his arms on his chest, and exhaled after a moment: "Okay, but I really don't know what Asakusa has to do with dice. I'm just an American who came to Japan for vacation, and I said that. Can you understand?"
It seems that there is no intention to cooperate at all...
Ayanokouji Fumimaro had a helpless face and had no choice but to persuade patiently: "Mr. Waltz... this matter involves your safety. We need you to provide some information. For example, people who Timothy Hunter may come into contact with after coming to Japan, anyone Anything that might help us understand him.”
"Oh, if you really want me to be safe, then let me return to the United States quickly..."
Jack Waltz waved his hand irritably, "That's right! Arrest Scott Green quickly! He must be the murderer and he is not wrong!"
In his impression, the person who could kill Timothy Hunter must be an excellent sniper master.
As for Kevin Yoshino... he's just a useless recruit, nothing to worry about.
This... Ayanokouji Fumimaro shook his head: "Unfortunately, we currently have no evidence to prove this."
"That's enough!"
Jack Waltz said in an impatient and contemptuous tone: "It seems that whatever I say to you Japanese policemen is a waste of time!"
After that, he stood up and went back to the bedroom to rest.
"Mr. Waltz!"
Ayanokouji Fumimaro stopped the other party: "For your safety, please do not approach Tokyo under any circumstances. If you look at the map, you will understand that the murderer should have planned to carry out the next sniper attack in the Asakusa area."
"Hmph, who would go to a place like that? It's an ominous place!"
Jack Waltz sneered: "You... you should immediately help me prepare a ticket to fly back to the United States from Kansai Airport, so that Murphy will not waste his life to inform me of the murderer's whereabouts! If you don't take advantage of this When the time comes to return to the United States, won’t his death be in vain?”
"..."
Jack Waltz's remarks made the Kyoto Prefectural Police present very unhappy, but they could only complain in a low voice because the pressure from the top forced them to do so.
