"Uh, of course." Miwako Sato, who was still angry, replied subconsciously.
After seeing Kawakami Tsumugi walking towards Houdeng Minghui and starting a conversation, she realized:
This guy Kawakami Tsumugi is not one of theirs, and this time he was identified as the murderer by the reporter...
Why does this guy act so naturally, just like her coworkers? !
Miwako Sato had an inexplicable urge to pull this thing back and let him sit on the chair obediently to avoid suspicion.
She looked at Officer Megure again, who was standing next to the junior high school student, listening to what he was talking about.
Her boss always gives people a feeling that he does not seek merit, but seeks no faults. This is manifested in the fact that as a police officer, he is surprisingly tolerant of detectives and people like detectives, and does not care at all how they will be criticized by the media. Officer Twilight probably won't stop Kawakami's actions.
So Miwako Sato asked Matsuda Jinpei, who was not aware of the seriousness of the problem at all:
"What do you think about playing poker at a crime scene?"
"Well, I want to confirm whether Kawakami Tsumugi is the murderer." Matsuda Jinpei replied, "He had a quarrel with the deceased and made the other party look embarrassed. And... if it is as the junior high school student judged, it was poisoning, Kawakami Ji actually has the conditions to commit the crime."
"We can't lower our guard just because we know him. I know that." Miwako Sato nodded, her expression softening slightly, "So what did you ask?"
"Demon Town Museum"
"I didn't ask anything," Matsuda Jinpei told the truth. "That guy Kawakami said he knew I wanted to talk and didn't resent it, but he wouldn't tell me a word if I didn't spend time with him."
Miwako Sato:…………
She didn't believe that the Matsuda formation would obediently follow Kawakami Tsumugi's routine. The excuses were all excuses.
…………
Kawakamiji walked to Houdeng Minghui. The assistant was still being questioned by the police. Others following him were also standing around the police.
Sensing Kawakami Tsumugi's movements, everyone stared at him.
"Just to confirm, it was you who asked the lighting engineer to turn off the lights?" the police officer under Officer Megure asked.
"Yes, I helped Mr. Xinmu down from the stage, and then followed him into the waiting room." Houdeng Minghui replied calmly, "There were cleaners and other witnesses on the road, and there were other people in the waiting room."
"In other words, you appeared at the first scene of Xin Mulong's death?"
"Yes, there is another person who is also...one of Mr. Araki's men, but I don't know who it is. In fact, I don't know all the assistants present."
Among the crowd surrounding the police, one person raised his hand: "It's me, it's me, Mr. Houdeng. I was sorting out information for the exchange meeting in the waiting room."
"What's your name?" the police officer asked.
"My name is Ue Yuma. After Mr. Hodeng left, Mr. Araki was still alive, but he kept insulting...insulting a person named 'Kawakami'."
Oh ho. Kawakamiji smiled.
He reflected on his behavior for a few seconds:
He dares to do this because he will not leave conclusive evidence; the character of "Kawakami Tsumugi" will not watch people he knows being humiliated, and Shinki Takashi's mouth is too open.
Normally, apart from causing some unpleasantness, this incident would not cause any other disturbance; but Tsumugi Kawakami ignored that this was the town of Rice Flowers...According to the style of the town of Rice Flowers, Araki Takashi, who had been given a little lesson by him, "popped" Hang up.
Tsk, trouble.
Next time when you teach someone a lesson, let's do a long-range sniper like Matsuda Jinpei did that time. Kawakamiji thought.
"Ah, the Mr. Kawakami who was insulted by Mr. Araki is me." The gray-haired young man interrupted the police news just right. "Unfortunately, Mr. Araki seems to have some misunderstandings about me."
Successfully attracting the attention of Houdeng Minghui and the police, Kawakami continued with a troubled expression:
"Although the quality of Mr. Araki's clothes was not up to par, and I was with him at that time, in fact, I did not have any physical contact with Mr. Araki. It was just a coincidence."
Kawakamiji plans to continue to deny it.
Those who confessed were given leniency and sat in jail, but those who resisted were given strict punishment and went home to celebrate the New Year. Anyway, there is no conclusive evidence left. As long as he doesn't take the initiative to admit it and kneels on the ground crying like those stupid murderers, no one will be able to convict him until the end of the world.
Besides, it is not difficult to change the subject in troubled waters.
"What a coincidence? Don't you want to deliberately embarrass Mr. Araki?" Houdeng Minghui shouted angrily, "Otherwise, why would you follow Dr. A Li on stage -"
"Okay, shut up." Tsumugi Kawakami coldly interrupted Houdeng Minghui's questioning, and his attitude instantly hardened.
The pale gray-haired young man tilted his head. At this angle, the lenses of his glasses did not reflect any light and were as transparent as nothingness.
Therefore, everyone present could clearly see Kawakami's pure black pupils without any reflection.
To be honest, it was quite scary; what Houdeng Minghui wanted to say was silenced by Kawakami Tsumugi.
"You've been acting strange, Mr. Backlight."
Kawakamiji said softly,
"Before the police arrived, you couldn't wait to pin the charge of killing Xin Mulong on me, and now you can't wait to accuse me to embarrass Mr. Xin Mu... Still, when there is no clear evidence for either of these things, you This is quite like a thief shouting to catch the thief."
"A thief shouts "Catch a thief?" the police officer on the side exclaimed, quite professional.
"If I heard the previous questioning correctly, you and Mr. Ujiang were the ones who appeared at the scene of the first crime, and you should be the most suspected." Kawakami explained, "From this perspective, the latter Doesn’t Deng Minghui behave like a thief shouting to catch the thief?”
"Perhaps both the public embarrassment of Mr. Araki and the killing of Mr. Araki were your work: the former can divert attention and attract the police's attention to the scapegoat, so that you can get away with it...
"If I hadn't followed Mr. Ari on stage out of curiosity, he would have been the one accused of being the murderer."
"You're talking nonsense!"
The other person involved, Ue Yuma, blushed. He seemed to be protesting to Kawakami, but looked suspiciously at Houdeng Minghui.
At the same time, others looked at Xiandeng Minghui and felt something was wrong. In an instant, he became the target of public criticism.
So it's so easy to talk nonsense, Kawakami whispered in his heart and ate a lemon candy by the way. Even if you are talking nonsense, as long as everything seems to make sense, it is too easy to fish in troubled waters.
"So, according to Mr. Kawakami, I am the real murderer?" Houdeng Minghui smiled instead of getting angry.
"I didn't mean that."
Putting the candy wrapper back into his pocket, Kawakami once again put on his usual gentle smile,
"Who is the murderer can't be determined by talking... I mean it can be determined by reasoning. These can only play a supporting role.
"Who is the murderer depends on evidence."
