The islands are basically typical Japanese courtyard buildings, and they are very familiar with each other.So after asking passers-by, following the address, the two soon arrived at their destination - Men Li's house.
The gate of the courtyard is half open, and it can be seen from the outside.
A few sheets of old fishing nets and other tools were randomly hung in the courtyard, otherwise it was empty and looked a little desolate due to lack of care.However, a few pots of green plants placed on the shelf at the door added a bit of vitality.
Matsuda Jinpei walked in without hesitation, and rang the doorbell several times outside and outside, but no one responded for a long time.
Even though it was normal dinner time, no one was home?
Liya bent down and picked the leaves of the potted plants, and found that the soil surface was still wet: "It seems that their family took good care of the potted plants, and they just watered them today."
Just as he was about to say that he should go to Heijiang Naoko's house first, the door was opened with a "crash", first there was a burst of alcohol, and then the drunken face of a middle-aged man appeared.
His face was flushed, his eyes were a little loose, and he had a sloppy beard. He looked at the strange young men and women outside the door for a long time before getting up and letting the door open.
"If you still want to ask about that matter, just come in and talk about it."
As a fisherman, a well-known alcoholic on the island, after the incident of the mermaid skeleton became a sensation, Saori Kadori's father, Benzo Kadori, was one of the main suspects of the police, and was interrogated several times by the Fukui County Criminal Police.
Personal information is written very clearly on the materials provided by Fukui Prefecture.
Benzo Kadorei is 52 years old and is a fisherman by profession. However, because of his wife's death, he became addicted to alcoholism. Fishing for three days and drying the net for two days is a true portrayal of him.As a result, Menli's family was very financially stressed. It was not until his daughter, Saori Menli, graduated from university and started working.
The relationship between father and daughter is very tense, quarreling every three days, and then Saori Monri will run away from home for a few days and come back.
Even at this dinner time, the house is filled with a strong and pungent smell of alcohol.If half of it comes from the bottles scattered on the table and floor in the living room, the other half is definitely the smell of alcohol.
The surprising thing is that although Menri Benzo smelled of alcohol all over his body and his face was flushed, he tasted good wine, answered every question he could remember, and spoke clearly.
However, their purpose this time is not on the father.
"Mr. Kadori, that is to say, on the night of the fire, are you sure you were drinking alone at home?" After routinely asking a few questions to confirm his identity, Riya began to ask about the situation on the day of the accident.
Menlei Benzang laughed disapprovingly: "Didn't you ask this question before, the neighbor saw me through the window several times that day, I did not commit a crime."
"Apart from neighbors, who else can testify?" Matsuda Jinping asked.
Hearing the sound, Kadorebebezo's face became a little weird, and he turned his head to look over: "Listen to the police officer's accent, you are not from Fukui, are you from Tokyo?"
Is it that obvious?Matsuda Jinpei was taken aback by what he said.
Seeing what he was saying, Kadorei Benzo was quite proud of himself, and couldn't help opening up the chatterbox: "I lived in Tokyo for a while when I was young, and I have dealt with Tokyo people a lot, as long as I listen to what they say. In a word, the Tokyo flavor in that accent can't be hidden at all..."
Seeing this guy talking endlessly, Riya interrupted in time: "I'm also from Tokyo, didn't you hear it?"
She resumed the previous topic: "Was your daughter not there that day? If both of them were at home, it would be more credible to corroborate each other."
"She had a quarrel with me that day and ran out by herself." Menleben Zang replied casually, "Maybe she went drinking with her friends again."
It turned out that the family was all drunks.Matsuda Jinpei frowned unconsciously, and his expression turned colder.
It is easy to get emotional after drinking too much alcohol, and it is not surprising that a drunkard will do anything. The "that night" mentioned by Saori Mori himself may be related to drunkenness.
Realizing the key to the question, Riya maintained a gentle tone, persuading: "Do you know where she went to drink?"
After talking for a long time, Menlei Benzang lost his focus at first, and his voice became erratic: "Who knows, that child usually doesn't tell me anything."
Riya took the next best thing: "Who are her close friends?"
Thinking about it hard, Kadori Benzo gave five names: Shimabukuro Kimie, Kadori Saori, Kuroe Naoko, Ebihara Sumi, and Fukuyama Rokuro.
It is said that they have gone to school together since they were young, and they even made a movie and won an award in college. Their relationship is very good.
Excluding Kimie Shimabukuro and Saori Kadori who visited today, there are two women and one man.
Anyway, it was still early, and the distance was not far away. The two of them visited all of them in less than nine or ten minutes.Before nine o'clock, I went back to the rented hotel, summed up the information I gained in the day, and sorted out my thoughts.
After writing the names of five people on the white paper, Riya fell into deep thought: "Although he kept secret about the night of the fire, Shimabukuro Junhui's suspicion has dropped a lot."
At the beginning of looking at the information given by Fukui Prefecture, Riya subconsciously gave the most attention to Junhui Shimabukuro.Because the warehouse that caught fire was behind their shrine, and she lived with her elderly great-grandmother, even if there is a testimony, she cannot be trusted.
On the way here, Li Ya looked at the information and even guessed whether the nameless charred corpse was the longevity woman.
After seeing Junhui Shimabukuro, although she tried her best to pretend to be calm, the priestess did reveal her sadness when she mentioned the corpse of the mermaid, which is very unusual.The only problem is that Longevity Po appeared in front of other islanders the other day.
But now, after door-to-door inquiries, there is also a large gap in the whereabouts of the three of them that night, Saori Kadori, Naoko Kuroe, and Tomi Ebihara, and only each other can testify.
Fukuyama Rokuro, who stayed at home with his parents that night, was the least suspected, and also provided information that the three of them often drank together and got drunk.
Enthusiastic neighbors testified that they went out when they saw the three of them drunk that night.
Coupled with the few words Saori Kadori impulsively revealed when they met at the local product store before, Naoko Heijiang hurriedly interrupted her nervous performance... There are many clues pointing to these three people.
Matsuda Jinping stood with his chest folded, looked at the name on the white paper and sneered slightly: "I got such an obvious clue in one day of investigation, were the Fukui prefectural police always dealing with errands before?"
"At least they have identified the unnamed corpse and confirmed that it is a human bone and not a mermaid." Riya was emotionally stable.
The curly-haired young man looked cold and serious, as if he wanted to clean up the scum in the police world, and his mood swings were rare.
Liya blinked in surprise, trying to appease: "Don't be angry, it's because they are lacking in ability that they send someone as outstanding as Officer Matsuda, isn't it?"
"You're bragging."
Matsuda Jinpei glanced at her speechlessly, but responded to his partner's kindness: "Don't worry, impatience is a big taboo, I won't let my emotions interfere with my actions."
"I'm sure of that."
Riya nodded with a smile, shredded the paper on the table and threw it into the trash can, and got up quickly: "When the festival is over tomorrow, and the longevity woman is confirmed to be alive, go to Junhui Shimabukuro and find out what she is hiding."
Special fire stands are placed at the entrances on the left and right sides of the spacious venue, and the drummers on the side wear traditional costumes and beat the big drums according to a specific rhythm.
This vaguely enthusiastic drumbeat seemed to awaken Kojima's memory of the festival.Residents stepped out of their homes one after another, joining the bustling crowd of tourists, forming a dark crowd in front of the shrine.
The two young police officers were naturally inconspicuous.
Standing in front of the crowd, although it was a bit crowded, watching the gate of the shrine being slowly opened through a simple isolation rope, Riya finally realized a little bit of the fun of custom festivals, and watched all this with a sense of novelty.
Suddenly there was a whisper around:
"Is that the longevity woman?"
"She appeared again..."
"It's great that the longevity woman is still here."
Under the attention of all the people, the short longevity lady appeared dressed up, holding a special long stick with the top covered, and walked out the door with a dignified and solemn posture.
She ignited the tip of the long stick, and then touched the raging flame to the paper door of the shrine.Amidst the exclamations one after another, not only was the paper door not lit, but a large character slowly appeared.
Riya probably guessed that this should be done using some kind of scientific method, but it has to be said that this level is enough to fool the uninformed layman.
Although there is no supernatural phenomenon, it is indeed amazing at first glance.
While watching happily, the sound of dice that had been quiet for several days suddenly sounded in my ears——
[77/75]
[Detection check failed.In the midst of a lively festival, you unconsciously devote yourself to watching it, and your keen perception becomes dull.And because the noisy crowd blocked the line of sight, you didn't notice anything unusual. 】
Riya froze with a smile, and subconsciously looked around quickly for observation.But as the second number of Mermaid Arrow slowly appeared, the surrounding locals and tourists became enthusiastic, and everyone wanted to get closer to see clearly.
Being crowded, her height, which was originally considered tall among women, was inconspicuous. She could only see people's heads shaking, and her searching eyes found nothing.
"Asai." Matsuda Jinpei, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said, his voice was inexplicably dry.
Riya retracted his gaze regretfully, and when he turned around, he found that the curly-haired young man was frowning, his shoulders were tense, his face was obscured by the dim light, and he didn't react for a while.
"What, you got hit?"
She looked up at the three numbers on the paper door, was taken aback for a moment, and raised her eyebrows in surprise: "You're lucky."
Matsuda Jinpei didn't bother to care about the number plate now.
"Four o'clock."
He lowered his head and moved a little closer. At such a short distance, the deliberately low voice could be clearly transmitted: "The men in black at the edge of the crowd, are those two you have seen?"
Noticing that his partner's view was blocked and he might not be able to see that side, he also thoughtfully added a few details.
"The tall one has very special long silver hair and wears a long windbreaker, the shorter one wears a suit and sunglasses, both of them wear top hats, and they are all dressed in black."
The gate of the courtyard is half open, and it can be seen from the outside.
A few sheets of old fishing nets and other tools were randomly hung in the courtyard, otherwise it was empty and looked a little desolate due to lack of care.However, a few pots of green plants placed on the shelf at the door added a bit of vitality.
