Tokyo Police

Vol 2 Chapter 15: Suspect

Ayu's hometown is in Shimojo Village, Nagano Prefecture, where Nagano Prefecture and Yamanashi Prefecture meet, not far from Kofu City. Lin Shuichi and Kanako drove out of Kofu City around 3 o'clock in the afternoon, and are expected to arrive at Shimojo Village around 7 o'clock in the evening.

Nagano Prefecture, like Yamanashi Prefecture, is also a famous tourist area. The Nagano area was called the Shinano country during the Warring States Period. At that time, the Shinano country was a famous place for producing excellent military horses, and it became a battleground for the military. It was here that the famous Five Kawanakajima battles between Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin broke out.

After the 1998 Nagano Winter Olympics, it became a well-known ski resort in RB. Similar to Yamanashi, Nagano is also famous for its fruits. The most famous specialty here is Ichida persimmon, a popular dried persimmon that is often enjoyed by RB people as a refreshment. In addition, the soba noodles and horse meat sashimi here are also rare delicacies.

"Can we eat soba at night?" As soon as he entered Nagano Prefecture, Lin Shuichi asked Kanako about dinner.

"You're a police officer, shouldn't you be concerned about how to investigate the victim's situation first?" Kanako teased.

"I said, the kaiseki meal at noon is not enough at all! Driving on an empty stomach is very dangerous!" Lin Xiu said half-jokingly.

"Okay, okay, I get it! But it's hard to come to Nagano, I'm afraid it won't make sense if we don't try the horse meat sashimi here. Besides, we're all here to fix holidays, why don't we go out for a drink..." Kanako suggested road.

……

In this way, the two were discussing what to eat along the way, and the time passed quickly.

After arriving at Xiajo Village, the two booked a well-received local homestay from Airbnb, which easily solved the accommodation problem. Although the name is Xiatiao Village, due to the developed tourism industry, the scale here is actually closer to a small town in China. The commercial street of Xiajo Village is located in the center of the entire village. Because it is the peak tourist season, foreigners can be seen here from time to time.

Kanako found an izakaya where you could eat both horse meat sashimi and soba noodles. The two asked for a pot of wine and a few dishes of side dishes, and began to discuss the next plan.

"It's been so many years, and I don't know if Ayu's family is still here!" Kanako picked up a ball of soba, put it in a small dipping cup, and then sucked it into her mouth. The taste of soba noodles is strong after the entrance, and the soup is fresh, the taste is really not good, especially in hot weather, it is the most suitable choice to eat this kind of cool soba noodles.

Lin Xiuyi only wanted half of the soba noodles, because he also wanted to taste the taste of horse meat sashimi. He picked up the wasabi and the wiping board from the dinner plate, and rubbed the wasabi mud leisurely. Lin Xiu wiped it for a long time, and finally got a little wasabi mud. He picked up a piece of horse meat and placed it on a small plate in front of him, lightly smearing it with a little wasabi paste, and then dipping the side that wasn't on the wasabi paste in soy sauce.

After the horse meat slices are put into the mouth, the taste is not as tender as tuna, but it is very chewy. The spiciness of the wasabi and the saltiness of the soy sauce well mask the fishy smell of the horse meat. Lin Xiuyi had never eaten horse meat sashimi before, but after eating it, he found out that although the taste was quite different from the sashimi he usually eats, it was unique. Lin Xiuyi soon fell in love with the taste.

"It turns out that it tastes like this, it's really delicious!" Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but praise.

It was dinner time now, and the izakaya was full of customers who came out to relax after a day's work. Lin Xiuyi and Kanako talked about the murderer who killed Ayu while tasting the special dishes here.

"Kanako, do you think this Professor Saito is suspicious!" Lin Xiuyi suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Suspicious, they treat you to a good kaiseki meal, but you doubt him?" Kanako was a little surprised by Lin Xiuyi's suspicion. To be honest, she didn't think there would be any conflict between Professor Saito and Ayu at all. what a link.

"According to our previous analysis, I think that the motive of the murderer of Ayu's murder may be the invasion of wealth! And three years after Ayu's murder, how did it happen that Xinxuan's buried gold was found in the stream at the foot of the Buddha Temple? "Lin Xiu asked.

"What's impossible? And there's been three years between these two events. It would be too far-fetched if this could be linked!" Kanako asked in disbelief. She didn't mean to defend Professor Saito. , but don't like the police who start to suspect people without evidence. After all, Kanako is just an ordinary person, so she will naturally consider the problem from the standpoint of ordinary people.

"What I'm talking about now is just a hypothesis! Look, two major events happened in the vicinity of the Buddha Temple within three years. Ayu was killed, and Xinxuan's buried gold was discovered. And the weapon that killed Ayu happened to be a Warring States period. No matter how I think about it, I feel that there is a connection between this rib and the four small golden sentences. Besides, the three-year period is also well explained~www.wuxiaspot.com~ When Ayu died, it happened to be At the end of the year, the time when Professor Saito discovered the buried gold happened to be in the early spring. According to the general practice of the Metropolitan Police Department, if the search for homicide cannot be solved within a year, it will be treated as a backlog, and the search will be completed in one lesson. Transfer the case from the forcible criminal search-murderer search room to the special search and investigation countermeasures room. After all, the cost of handling a case must also be considered. If you spend too much energy and resources on a case where a breakthrough cannot be achieved, it will only be a waste. The taxpayer's tax..." Lin Xiuyi carefully analyzed the case for Kanako, saying that the cost of handling a case, after all, the police department's budget is not unlimited, and only good steel can be used to the maximum effect. Not only the police department, but also the Justice Department will also consider cost. Even China's criminal law has provisions similar to ordinary citizens committing crimes abroad, but according to China's criminal law, if they are sentenced to less than three years in prison, they can no longer be held criminally responsible after returning to China.

"Then what do you want to do? Notify the Yamanashi Prefectural Police to investigate Professor Saito?" Kanako asked curiously.

"That's not possible. I don't have any evidence to prove that Professor Saito is the murderer of Ayu. Even if the Yamanashi Prefectural Police are notified, they will not investigate Saito." Lin Xiu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"That's why you're helpless, Lin Police Department!" Kanako was very happy to see Lin Xiuyi's shriveled appearance.

"Who said it, if it doesn't exist now doesn't mean it won't happen in the future." After Lin Xiu said this, he took out a small plastic bag from his pocket with a proud face and put it on the table.

"This is... Professor Saito's business card?" Kanako asked with a bewildered face.

"Yes, it has Professor Saito's fingerprint on it. I think we will know the answer soon!" Lin Xiu picked up the glass and drank it.
