Chapter 116 115·The fifth suspect (please subscribe for [-]-word update)
When Ryuji Sugisaki was dating the deceased Yuki Ezaki, he actually had an improper relationship with makeup artist Yukihan Hirata. His fiancée Uchimura Umi never knew about it. It can be said that he was a master of time management.

Until Hirata Xuehan was jealous of the closer relationship between the deceased and the boss, he reported the relationship between the two to the boss's fiancée.

Sugisaki Ryuji had to break up with the deceased because the company was actually the property of his fiancee's father, and if he left his fiancée, he would have nothing.

When he proposed to break up with the deceased Yuki Ezaki, Yuki Ezaki, who had always been cowardly and did not dare to speak even when bullied, went out of his way and threatened Ryuuji Sugisaki, saying that she was already pregnant with his child. If he was unwilling to marry him, It will ruin his reputation.

Although the pregnancy was fake, it still angered the seemingly gentle and affectionate man Sugisaki Ryuji, who was actually quite selfish.

Therefore, Sugisaki Ryuji had the motive to kill.

Ichiro Sekiguchi found the deceased Yuki Ezaki two months ago and took the initiative to apply for a job at the Kinoshita Neko Death Care Company.

At that time, Sugisaki Ryuuji was still dating Ezaki Yuki. In order to show off, Sugisaki Ryuuji directly showed Sekiguchi Ichiro the indecent video of the deceased and him, and told Sekiguchi Ichiro that Ezaki Yuki was once famous in the custom street. As long as he If you are willing to spend money, you will not be unable to sleep.

Ichiro Sekiguchi has always kept this secret deep in his heart, and tried to confess his love to Yuki Ezaki again. As long as she is still willing to be with him, he can abandon all the misfortunes in the past, but unfortunately he was rejected again.

Ichiro Sekiguchi was very angry. In a rage, he burned all the collected photos of the deceased and came up with the idea of ​​​​making the deceased pay the price.

Therefore, Ichiro Sekiguchi also had a motive for killing.

Hirata Yukihan has always been jealous of Ezaki Yuuki. Even after she had a relationship with Sugisaki Ryuji, Sugizaki Ryuji compared her with Ezaki Yuuki and thought that she was inferior to Ezaki Yuuki in every aspect. This hurt her greatly. Her pride led her to tell her boss's fiancée about her boss, but this still did not eliminate her inner jealousy.

Especially after seeing Ichiro Sekiguchi who had been pursuing him from her hometown to Tokyo, she became even more jealous of Yuki Ezaki, and even began to deliberately imitate Yuki Ezaki in her dressing, hoping to replace her.

Therefore, Hirata Xuehan also had a motive for murder.

Ishibashi Katsuhisa always harassed Ezaki Yuuki. After being warned many times by his boss, his behavior restrained. However, one time he accidentally saw Ryuji Sugisaki and Ezaki Yuuki playing poker in the office, which once again aroused the evil thoughts in his heart. He took the video and threatened Ezaki Yuuki to make her submit, but unfortunately she was still rejected.

Ezaki Yuuki didn't care at all that the video of herself and Sugisaki Ryuji was leaked, and even hoped that it would.

As a result, Ishibashi Katsuhisa found many people who often called and harassed Ezaki Yuuki, and sometimes sent her explicit text messages.

Esaki Yuki was chatting with her colleagues during dinner, took out the explicit text messages he sent, and said how could she fall in love with a man in his thirties who still had nothing?

Listening to the ridicule of his colleagues, Ishibashi Katsuhisa was completely irritated, and made a threatening phone call to Esaki Yuuki that night.

Therefore, Katsuhisa Ishibashi also had a motive for murder.

All four people have a motive for murder. With careful questioning, even the police can get the same result as the identification technique.

However, none of these four people look like psychopathic killers who commit serial crimes. They have neither criminal records nor follow-up targets. If it is a simple murder case, their suspicions will be very high.

But if this is just the beginning and there will be victims later, then the probability that they are the murderers is very small.

In other words, there is a fifth suspect!
Who could be the fifth suspect?
Because Baichuan had used the identification technique six times in a row, he could not concentrate mentally, causing his thoughts to become somewhat confused.

"Is there any coffee?"

Bai Chuan suddenly asked.

Shuichi Mouri looked at his boss, Ryuji Sugisaki, and asked, "Is there any coffee?"

"Yes, yes, wait a moment."

Sugisaki Ryuji quickly brought a ceramic tray with three cups of coffee, one for each of Mouri Shuichi, Shirakawa and Takeshima Mie.

As his clients, Shirakawa and Takeshima Mie were the ones he was supposed to take care of.

"I'm very sorry, but it seems your funeral will have to be postponed."

he said apologetically.

Takeshima Mie shook her head, "The most important thing is to find out the cause of Miss Esaki's death."

Bai Chuan drank the coffee in one gulp and regained his mental strength for a moment.

"Where is the deceased's cell phone?"

Bai Chuan suddenly asked.

"We searched the scene but couldn't find Ms. Yuki Ezaki's mobile phone."

the young police officer replied.

"Isn't this the first crime scene? The mobile phone is still at the first crime scene, or the mobile phone fell on the road when the victim was transferred."

Shuichi Mori deduced.

Bai Chuan shook his head,

"According to their description, the victim was at the company all day yesterday, and Kinoshita Neko Death Care Company should be the scene of the first crime."

"The victim's cell phone was taken away by the murderer."

Shuichi Mouri's eyes lit up, and he immediately asked technicians to locate the phone number of the deceased Yuki Ezaki.

Although the mobile phone has been turned off, the longitude and latitude can still be found through base station positioning.

But what is regrettable is that the location is within the Kinoshita Neko Death Care Company.

Finally, the police found the damaged mobile phone in the women's restroom of the company.

"What does the number 24 on the deceased's head mean?"

Mouri Shuichi looked at Shirakawa in confusion.

"It means if the case is not solved within 24 hours, there will be another victim."

Bai Chuan said directly.

Mouri Shuichi's face became more serious, and he subconsciously wanted to seek Bai Chuan's opinion.

"Kuragi-kun, do you have any ideas now?"

"Actually, the idea is the same as that of the Maori police officer. First, we will investigate the individuals who have had friction with the deceased, and then based on the time of death, ask them for their alibi to determine whether they have the time to commit the crime."

Bai Chuan held the coffee cup and said calmly.

Maori Xiu nodded, "For now, the targets of my suspicion are several phone callers who often harass the deceased."

"No, there is nothing wrong with them. They were just hired to harass the deceased, Ms. Yuuki Esaki. The person with the problem should be the person who hired them, Mr. Katsuhisa Ishibashi." Shirakawa looked at the slovenly middle-aged man Katsuhisa Ishibashi. , "Mr. Katsuhisa Ishibashi, right?"

Ishibashi Katsuhisa immediately nervously denied, "What nonsense are you talking about! I didn't at all, it wasn't me, I didn't kill Esaki Yuki!"

"It turns out that you had people make those harassing phone calls. So, you are indeed very suspicious."

Hirata Xuehan, who was smoking a lady's cigarette, said, "Because she keeps rejecting you, it is very possible to get angry and kill her."

"Yes, I once saw you taking advantage of Ji-chan."

The older aunt also recalled it.

"It was you, it was you who killed Yuki-chan, you devil!"

Ichiro Sekiguchi held his head and cried.

Big beads of sweat appeared on Katsuhisa Ishibashi's head. He pointed at the makeup artist Yukihan Hirata and said roughly:
"I didn't, you guys are talking nonsense! When it comes to suspicion, your suspicion is even greater. You have always been jealous of Ezaki Yuki being more popular than you, and you are even more jealous of Ezaki Yuki's relationship with the boss. And you, Sekiguchi Ichiro, don't pretend to be innocent. Yes, you clearly said personally that you want Ezaki Yuki to pay the price."

"enough."

The gentle and gentle owner of Kinoshita Neko Death Care Company, Sugisaki Ryuji, suddenly spoke, interrupting the irritable Katsuhisa Ishibashi.

If he continues talking, his story will be exposed.

Mouri Shuichi frowned and looked at everyone present seriously,

"Please cooperate with the police investigation and repeat everything you know, as well as what you were doing and who you were with from 2 to 3 o'clock this morning."

Takeshima Mijie's eyes were full of surprise. It was really hard for her to imagine that the seemingly harmonious Kinoshita Neko Death Care Company had so many complicated interpersonal relationships hidden behind it.

Ms. Yuuki Esaki clearly looks gentle and kind, and she is hard-working, so why do so many people want her dead?

Takeshima Mie nervously held Shirakawa's hand.

The warmth of Bai Chuan's palm made her feel powerful.

Mouri Shuichi re-interrogated several people and got unexpected results.

Sekiguchi Ichiro, Hirata Yukihan, Ishibashi Katsuhisa, and Sugisaki Ryuji all have no alibi.

Sugisaki Ryuji said that he slept in the bedroom in the early morning. Because he slept alone, no one could prove it.

Hirata Yukihan was even seen quietly going back to the company at 10 o'clock. She said she dropped her lipstick at the company and came back to pick it up. After taking it away, it was 10:[-] in the evening and she went back to the apartment to rest, but it still wasn't there. witness.

Ichiro Sekiguchi claimed that he was playing games alone in his apartment and there were no witnesses.

Ishibashi Katsuhisa said that he drank too much and was sleeping at home. It happened that his parents went on a trip that day and did not come back. He was the only one left at night, and there was still no witness.

From the inquiry, Mouri Xiuyi got the general grudges between several people and the deceased. His expression was serious and his brows were furrowed.

"I now suspect that the murderer is among you. I do not rule out the possibility of your joint crime. Please follow me back to the Metropolitan Police Department for investigation."

"Officer, I am truly innocent."

"I will never do anything to hurt Yuki-chan."

"Yes, no matter what, I would never do such a thing."

"Officer, it must be him. He killed Miss Yuki."

The four suspects are already blaming each other, believing that the other is the murderer and they are innocent.

Maori Shuichi ignored their dog-eat-dog behavior and prepared to take them all back for investigation.

"Kuragi-kun, do you want to go back with us?"

Shuichi Mori asked.

Bai Chuan shook his head, "The murderer should be someone else."

"why?"

Shuichi Mouri asked doubtfully.

"Since the murderer has given clues that he will commit crimes 24 hours a day, it proves that he is a psychopathic serial murderer. That eliminates the suspicion of the four people because they all have specific personal grudges with Miss Esaki Yuki. It’s easy to become a scapegoat for a murderer.”

And I don’t sense any psychopathic vibe in them.

Bai Chuan added inwardly.

"After ruling out the four of them as suspects, who is the real suspect?"

Mouri Shuichi asked in confusion.

After thinking calmly, Bai Chuan got a clue from the identification results. He said uncertainly,

"Perhaps he is the boyfriend of the deceased Ms. Yuki Ezaki."

"What? Miss Yuki Esaki has a boyfriend?"

"When did this happen?"

"It's unlikely. Boss Sugisaki is still dating her privately, isn't he?"

"Miss Yuki doesn't seem like someone who can hide secrets. If she had a boyfriend, she would have made it public by now, right?"

Even the four suspects knew nothing about the deceased having a hidden boyfriend, and other colleagues started talking about it.

Maori Shuichi also waited for Shirakawa to give an explanation.

Shirakawa looked at Sugisaki Ryuji,

"Probably because the relationship with Sugisaki Ryuji has not been completely broken off, Miss Yuki concealed her online dating..."
