Chapter 11 Questions
The next morning, Cao Yun entered the courtroom as a hearing. After a good night's rest, he was very energetic, on the other hand, staying up all night Gao Shan Xing showed a tired look from time to time.
At the beginning of the trial, first the prosecutor was the prosecutor, and then the witnesses were summoned, and most of the witnesses on the prosecutor's side were policemen, and they technically explained the evidence, Gao Shan Xing was motionless, saying that there was no question to ask the police. Defendant Matsumoto soon appeared on the interrogation bench as well. The prosecutor questioned him according to his confession and went through the process.
At this time, Takayama began to fire, and under Takayama's questioning, Matsumoto explained that the reason for the real conflict with Inoue was because Inoue slandered his wife, saying that he saw Matsumoto's wife and a man enter the hotel. This explanation caused an uproar at the scene.
Cao Yun was a little stunned, he felt that something was wrong, if he was a defense lawyer at this time, he would immediately ask for an adjournment. But he's not.
The witness Matsumoto's wife was then summoned, and Matsumoto's wife denied that she had an 'affair', but Takayama presented evidence: a set of photographs. Last night, Matsumoto's wife and a handsome guy entered a hotel back and forth. They left the hotel less than five minutes apart this morning.
In the face of everyone's surprise, Cao Yun had a strange feeling. Listening to what Takayama said, she either hired a private detective to follow Matsumoto's wife yesterday, and Matsumoto's wife happened to not hold back last night. It's like wanting to sleep, and someone brings a futon and a pillow. Of course, normally, it is possible for Matsumoto's wife to celebrate with her lover, or to discuss things. But Cao Yun thought from the beginning that the murderer was not an ordinary person. (Private detectives in Tokyo are legal, private detectives in the country are illegal.) )
The murderer was thoughtful, with wine bottles, rings, and drove away from the scene...... He did a lot of things without leaving a trace, which shows that the murderer's psychological quality is not ordinary. As a murderer with unusual psychological quality, why can't he bear it so quickly?
The trial continued, and the judge asked Matsumoto's wife to answer Takayama's inquiry head-on, and Matsumoto's wife continued to deny it. At this time, Gao Shan Xing asked for the temporary additional witnesses to attend. The prosecution also seems to have sensed that there was a problem and did not object to the temporary addition of witnesses to testify.
The testimony was a driver, the driver of the well. The Inoue driver was the one who witnessed Matsumoto's wife entering the Express Hotel with a man with Inoue, and proved that the two were very close.
The judge told Matsumoto's wife that if you don't want to admit it, the court will ask the hotel for surveillance footage and registration records as evidence.
Gao Shan Xing took out another weapon, and she said that she knew the man's identity and address. Under all kinds of pressure, Matsumoto's wife finally admitted that she had an affair a year ago, and the object of the affair was a middle-level executive at a company. At the same time, it is emphasized that they have nothing to do with Inoue's death.
Takayama took a step closer and asked Matsumoto's wife if she persuaded Matsumoto to reconcile with Inoue. Matsumoto's wife replied yes, because the two were old friends, working together for the first time in business, and as a virtuous wife, she knew that she should not speak ill of her husband's friends. At the same time, he said that he did not express a strong will.
Takayama asked Matsumoto, and Matsumoto replied that he had not told his wife the real reason for the conflict between him and Inoue, and Matsumoto had also wavered, but he firmly believed that his wife was innocent, and even now, he still did not believe everything his wife said just now.
After the Tai Chi fight, Takayama put forward her hypothesis, believing that Matsumoto was framed and that someone else killed Inoue, and suggested that the police put Matsumoto's wife and her lover on the list of suspects and start investigating the case again.
......
(This book shortens the time interval between court sessions, which would otherwise lead to a situation where multiple cases and events are entangled.) )
In the next few days, Gao Shan Xing has been very busy, occasionally thinking of Cao Yun, and planned to take time to take Cao Yun to his residence, but Cao Yun said that he would go back to Gaoyan City for the time being to deal with some things. Gao Shan Xing is also happy that no one bothered.
After the investigation of the case, it was out of control. On the day of the crime, that is, that night, after knowing that Matsumoto had gone to visit Inoue, Matsumoto's wife and lover had a tryst at home, and the only witness was the taxi driver who carried the lover. Matsumoto's income is not bad, and he lives in a white-collar villa in the suburbs. That is, a row of neat and beautiful single-family houses built along the side of the road. Taxis have been photographed on the surveillance, and there are quite a few, but there are no photos of Matsumoto's lover appearing in the villa complex. At the same time, the police believe that even if the lover is photographed, it will not be able to prove anything. Because the time of the tryst between the two was from 10 p.m. to 5 a.m., and the time of Inoue's death was 1 a.m., the taxi driver had nothing to do with the case.
The police searched the residence of the two and found key evidence, first of all, there were blood stains on the hem of the lover's pants, although the pants were washed, but they were not damaged with bleach, and the police extracted DNA to prove that the blood stains belonged to Inoue, which was consistent with the shape of the blood splattered when hitting the well with a baseball bat. In this regard, the lover is not clear at all, except for being stunned and firmly denying it.
The second evidence, provided by the Dongjiao Bridge surveillance, was that at nearly one o'clock in the morning on the day of the crime, Matsumoto's wife's car passed through the Dongjiao Bridge, and at 1:30 a.m., Matsumoto's wife's car returned to the villa complex through the Dongjiao Bridge. Matsumoto's villa is in the southeastern suburbs, and the meeting point between Matsumoto and Inoue is outside the Higashikayobashi, and there is no direct road connection between the two locations, and the distance between the two is about 14 kilometers.
The third piece of evidence is that a whiskey bottle was dug up in the lawn in the backyard of Matsumoto Villa, and after testing, the whiskey bottle contained a sleeping drug, which is not very effective, but can have a powerful effect with alcohol, has a fast metabolism, and has almost no side effects, which is difficult to detect. This sleeping pill is a mild sleeping pill for athletes, which happens to be developed and produced by the company where the lover works.
According to the investigation by the Metropolitan Police Department's search team, they believe that it was a well-planned case of false accusation. Matsumoto's wife prepared two bottles of wine and persuaded her husband to reconcile with Inoue, mentioning that Inoue had saved Matsumoto at a certain beach, and suggested that he revisit his hometown, and the two men would drink some wine and chat, and the conflict would naturally be resolved. However, the whisky that Matsumoto drank was adulterated with drugs, and in the early hours of the morning, Matsumoto definitely did not wake up because of the effects of the drugs. Inoue was also in a drunken state, and at this time, Matsumoto's wife's lover attacked Inoue.
Matsumoto's wife has the secondary key to the car and can easily open the trunk of the car parked on the side of the beach road and take the baseball bat. After knocking down Inoue, the lover took off the Matsumoto ring and put it on his hand, hitting Inoue on the cheekbone. In the end, he beat Inoue to death with a baseball bat.
Next, put Inoue's body in the trunk, carry Matsumoto into the car, drive to the vicinity of the Dongjiao Bridge where there are patrol officers, and finally leave the scene with a wine bottle to complete the murder and planting.
A week after the last trial, the court reconvened the case, except that the original defendant became a witness, and the original witness, Matsumoto's wife and lover, became the defendant. As Matsumoto's defense lawyer, Takayama was very satisfied with the results of her efforts and attended the trial.
But what Gao Shan Xing never expected was that Cao Yun turned out to be the personal assistant of Matsumoto's wife's defense lawyer, and sat on the defense lawyer's bench in a grand manner.
