[Psychic Detective Yakumo] One hundred ways to tease cats

I want to implement my search philosophy.

If we can go back to that time now, even if Ideuchi is beaten, he will finish the case of Sawaguchi Rika to the end.But time can never come back.

"Mr. Goto, it won't help if you regret it now, but at least you can save her soul."

This bastard, it's not his turn to say this.But just like Yakumo said, a dead person cannot be resurrected, so at least save her soul!

"I don't need you to tell me."

Goto replied heavily.

"Since this is the case, we must find out the reason why her soul wanders in the world. Has the culprit been apprehended?"

"Well, it was only after she committed suicide. Ironically, because of her suicide, her parents informed the media of the police's evil deeds, and they vividly said to the media that their daughter was killed by the police... …Finally, the high-level attention was brought to the attention, and the official search began.”

Speaking from my own mouth, the taste is really uncomfortable!Goto thought.

"And the police search has also yielded fruitful results."

"No, it can't be said that way. Although the police have information on the prisoner, the arrest of the prisoner was completely accidental. The prisoner's name was Dali Hezhi. He was 25 years old at the time and an ordinary office worker. He was arrested for drunk driving because he looked suspicious Unfortunately, the police found the photo when they checked his car."

"What happened to that girl's parents?"

Goto felt as if something heavy was hanging on his shoulders.

"Her mother died of heart failure after the prisoner was arrested, perhaps because of excessive worry; her father moved out of the apartment and now lives in a rented house."

"Really? So she should have died of other causes. Maybe she was trying to convey something."

Yakumo pinched his eyebrows, as if he was thinking about something.But he couldn't figure it out, just looked up at the ceiling.

"What I want to convey..."

Even Yakumo can't think of something, let alone Goto.In the end, the two could only stare at the ceiling together in a daze.

"Although it's troublesome, it seems that we have to thoroughly investigate the process of this matter again."

"makes sense."

As Yakumo said, besides, they had no other choice.

Asami's apartment is located in a corner of the shopping street in front of the station. It is a hook-shaped apartment in a nine-story building.There are red lines on the cement wall as the boundaries of the floors. It is said that this is a popular architectural style today.

Mami walked in the front, and the three of Makoto and Kamiyama took the elevator to the seventh floor.Mami led the two of them to the door of their house in the deepest part of the seventh floor.

Although Mami opened the door, she refused to enter the house, shivering uncontrollably with her back to the door.Mami's reaction was understandable, even Makoto felt scared, but because Mami was so frightened, she endured it desperately.

"Then I'll go in. 』

After finishing speaking, Shenshan entered the house without turning on the light.

"wait for me here. 』

Makoto talked to Mami, and followed Shenshan into the door.

Makoto reunited with Mami not long ago, so she is also the first time in Mami's home.Compared with the prominent appearance, the interior design of one bedroom and one living room seems plain.Mami said that she had just moved here not long ago, so her room had no sense of life.

Shen Shan muttered to himself and looked around the room, from the balcony, the wardrobe, to the bathroom... he didn't miss any of them.In Zhenqin's eyes, it is not so much that Shenshan is showing his ability of yin and yang eyes, it is better to say that he is checking the equipment in the room.

"That's right, it's exactly what I expected. 』

He murmured after inspecting all of Shenshan.He went back to the entrance and turned on the light.

"It's alright, please rest assured. 』

Kamiyama said to Mami's back.Mami turned her head in surprise, and the surprise on Makoto's face was no less than Mami's.

"What does "it's okay" mean? 』

Instead of Mami, Makoto asked the question in her heart.

『As I said just now, the one in Mami-san’s room should be a floating spirit.She didn't hold any resentment towards Miss Mami. For her, Miss Mami's encounter with those supernatural deeds was just a game to show her existence.Now that she has achieved her goal, she is no longer in this room. 』

"is that true? 』

Mami asked closely.However, Shenshan was just calm, and the quiet voice kept saying: "It's okay. 』

For some reason, Makoto has a feeling of being deceived by Shenshan.Maybe it was because she was too scared, so she felt so unreal!However, a great uneasiness spread faintly in Makoto's heart.

I came back to my room from the shower and found a missed call on my phone.

It's so rare that Yakumo called.After drying my hair with a blow dryer, I called Yakumo back.

"Sorry, I was just taking a shower.Is there a problem? 』

"It's about the apartment we went to today. 』

Yakumo said straight to the point.The results of Mr. Goto's investigation should come out.

"Well, the name of the deceased was Rika Sawaguchi.The reason for suicide is generally known! 』

"Basically know? 』

I always find Yakumo's tone very perfunctory.

『Then, I would like to ask you women what you think. 』

"Just ask. 』

Yakumo's "I want to ask you women's opinion" made me laugh.

"A woman was raped/violent months before her suicide. 』

The relaxed mood suddenly became heavy, and I felt a shiver down my spine.How chilling and heavy these words sound in a woman's ears!Every woman should have thought about what she would do if this happened to her.

"Is this the reason for her suicide? 』

"On the surface it is, but I always feel that there is something strange. 』

"Is something strange? 』

From what I've heard so far, I don't think there's anything wrong with it.I thought to myself that if I was raped/violated, I would definitely feel worse than death, so I can understand the feelings of that woman very well.In fact, some people committed suicide because of it.

"The woman reported to the police for assistance after being raped/violent. 』

It turns out that she will report the case to the police, indicating that she has the determination to make the matter public—she has considerable courage and strong willpower!That being the case, how could she commit suicide?

I understood what Yakumo meant by "something is strange".While I was deep in thought, Yakumo continued.

"I heard that she received some cruel insults when she was interrogated by the police. This may also be the cause of her suicide. 』

I know this mental insult called "Second Rape/Violence".

What Yakumo wants to know is probably the clear reason why the woman seeks revenge!

『This is just my personal opinion, but I think the reason should vary from person to person.I think there may not be just one clear reason for this. 』

"What's the meaning? 』

"If you think about each reason separately, it shouldn't be enough to force her into a desperate situation; but if you combine all the reasons, it is enough to constitute the reason for her self-destruction. 』

Yakumo listened to me quietly without interrupting, and I continued.

"For example, although the reasons for a couple breaking up vary from person to person, no one can clearly say that it is for a certain reason.Although there will be a tipping point, it is still formed by the accumulation of various reasons. 』

"I see!That is to say there are many reasons interacting to drive her to a dead end? 』

Human feelings cannot be summed up in words.

"Maybe something happened without us knowing. 』

I don't want to speculate on this, but it is also possible that the woman was pregnant after being raped/violent.A man must fail to understand what a blow this is to a woman's spirit.

『Maybe there is another reason we don’t know.In this way, the possibility that she did not commit suicide cannot be completely ruled out.』

Yeah?So Yakumo judged that she might not have committed suicide?Is it because of an accident?Or a homicide arranged as suicide?The words of the psychic suddenly appeared in my mind.

"She embraced a very strong hatred. 』

If it was just a murder case, I could understand what the psychic said, and Yakumo might have thought of this too!

"Thank you, I got a good reference. 』

"Ah la?Am I hallucinating?With your vocal cords, I thought I would never hear such a pronunciation in my life~” My tone suddenly became lighter, “It’s a pity that there is no recording, but I will keep it in my mind. 』

"By the way, I need your help with something. 』Yakumo rarely paid attention to it, and continued.

"What's up? ’ I asked.

"Just like before, just a simple investigation. 』

Although I will not be bored with Yakumo's request, I have a very ominous premonition.

Goto came to the door of the police dormitory, but when he was about to ring the doorbell, he retracted his hand.As Yakumo said, the way to save Rika's soul is to clarify the case again.In this way, asking his partner at the time—that is, Rieko who first came into contact with Rika was the fastest way.

Goto hesitated because his wife might appear behind this door.Because Goto forgot their wedding anniversary, his wife left home angrily to this day.In fact, Goto didn't forget it at all. On the contrary, he remembered it very clearly, but she really couldn't do such a thing as buying flowers and sending her home.

It's obvious that he just needs to apologize honestly, but the man is not such a frank creature, he said many excuses, but in fact it was just to hide his shyness.

Goto no longer remembers when and where he met Atsuko for the first time, but the clothes Atsuko was wearing at that time
