Kanda came forward.

Lin Hai tapped the inquiry record on the table with his finger and asked Kanda Laimiko: "You and your sister came to go shopping, and you happened to meet Mr. Yazawa, right?"

"Yes. ”

Uesugi Takashi asked with a twinkle in his eyes, "Did you deliberately follow them?"

"Why should I be stalking them?"

Kanda Laimiko said angrily: "My sister has to go to Hanami Koji, I was dragged by her, and when I met them (referring to Yasawa Ai and his party), they had already finished eating......"

Lin Hai glanced at Takashi Uesugi and said angrily: "Police Department!"

"I'm very sorry. Uesugi Takashi said.

Lin Hai ignored this guy who was eager to perform, and looked at another guy with a strong desire to perform.

"Misono, why do you have to go to Hanamikoji?"

"It's the weekend, I've been bored at home for a day, is there a problem with coming out to play?"

Kanda Miyuan glared at Lin Hai and asked rhetorically.

"It's the weekend?"

Lin Hai was stunned.

He has always lacked the concept of "rest days" in his concept of time, and he has not been to school recently, so he didn't know that it was a weekend until Kanda Mien mentioned it.

Lin Hai looked around and asked, "What is today?"

"Earth Day. ”

“Saturday。 ”

Kyoko and Hikaru replied in no particular order.

Kyoko tilted her head and asked, "Doesn't Hai Sang actually know?"

How can you have the illusion of being despised by stupid people?

"Of course I know, I'm just confirming. ”

Lin Hai touched his nose and asked Kanda Laiweizi: "Since today is the weekend, why is your school still in class?"

This was not to hide the embarrassment, but it really confused Lin Hai.

There are no legal weekends in Japan, and it is up to each company to decide whether or not to implement a two-day holiday, so "working overtime" on Saturdays is not something to make a fuss about.

But not in schools.

In April of this year, the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) announced the newly revised "Guidelines for Studying," which established an educational policy of "cultivating Japanese citizens who can respond to social changes on their own and have a rich personality."

This is the so-called "liberal education", which is also called "liberal education" due to the younger generation of Japan, which is the benefit of this policy.

Although liberal education has been questioned and criticized, it is a national policy after all, and in this case, it is really unbelievable that the elite women's colleges and universities are still committing crimes against the wind.

……

To Lin Hai's surprise, it was Masao Ota who answered his questions.

"That's right. Masao Ota said, "Elite Girls' High School is a private school, and it has always adhered to elite education, so classes will be arranged on Saturdays......

"As far as I know, there are not a few schools that have classes on Saturdays, but at most they have half-day classes, and I have never heard of a school that also has classes on Saturday afternoons......

"...... about this"

Masao Ota beckoned to Lin Hai.

Lin Hai walked into the conference room with him for some reason.

Ota Masao closed the door and said to Lin Hai in a low voice......: "Do you remember what I told you before?

"It can't have anything to do with the Essence Tenor, right?"

"You guessed it. Masao Ota said, "Since more than a month ago, three students have been killed at Seika Girls' High School, and the police suspect that someone is expressing their dissatisfaction with 'lenient education' in this way......

"You wait!" Lin Hai interrupted him and asked, "This is too exaggerated, isn't it? Even if you want to express dissatisfaction, you won't use such a radical way, right?"

"Who knows what the prisoner thinks, I think he's a madman at all!"

Ota Masao opened the notepad he was carrying, handed the photo sandwiched in to Lin Hai, and said, "This is a notification letter sent by the murderer to the school." ”

"So arrogant?"

Lin Hai looked at the photo.

In the photo is a letter spelled out with "newspaper clippings", with only one sentence - "Stop burying the stupid actions of the future, or the sanctions will continue!"

"That's it?"

"There are also photos of three of the victims, which I did not bring with me. ”

By implication, this is not a prank.

"How many clues do the police have so far?"

"Nothing. ”

Ota Masao shook his head helplessly and said, "The murderer was very cunning and did not leave any evidence at the scene. In addition, because the three girls belong to different grades, they have nothing to do with each other, and there is no similarity in personality, family background, etc. ”

"Random killing?"

Lin Hai realized the thorniness of the case.

Masao Ota nodded.

In order to stabilize the other party, the school could only continue to take a single holiday, and even increased the Saturday afternoon class. The Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology attached great importance to this case and ordered the police to solve the case as soon as possible, but the Kyoto police could not do anything but ask the Metropolitan Police Department for help, and it happened that I had just shown my face on TV, so I ......"

Ota Masao said with a bitter face: "You should know how much pressure I have......, right?

"Hmm. Lin Hai touched his chin and said, "When you arrive in Hokkaido, you should be in time for the fattest red-haired crab......

"Don't joke with me, if you can help me solve this case, I invite you to the Crab Pavilion and promise to satisfy you......"

Kanyutei is a long-established kaiseki restaurant in Kyoto, and Masao Ota has made up his mind that even if his wallet is bloody, he will drag Lin Hai into the water.

Lin Hai didn't dare to promise anything.

"You really think of me. ”

Lin Hai shook his head and said, "Let's solve the current case first." ”

He said he was going to go out.

Ota Masao hurriedly reminded: "At present, the police and the school are trying their best to hide the facts of the case, so don't tell ...... out."

"Peace of mind. ”

……

Coming out of the conference room, Lin Hai left the "random murder case of the female high school" behind him and continued the unfinished questioning just now.

"Misono's school is not open today?"

"Of course. ”

"Oh. Lin Hai nodded and turned to Kanda Laiweizi: "I noticed a very strange place. You and your sister both know the deceased, but we don't think very well of him. ”

Lin Hai picked out two transcripts, side by side, and said, "Kanda-san's evaluation of Mr. Hirai is: a respectable teacher, strict, but not annoying. And Misono's evaluation of him is that he is a very kind and gentle uncle. ”

When Lin Hai said this, he asked Kanda Mien, "You are not a student of the Elite Girls' High School, how can you know Mr. Hirai?"

"Because Genji often visits his home. ”

When Kanda Mien said this, her mood gradually became lost: "Every time Genji goes, he will bring me a gift...... Now, brother, is Genji really dead?"

Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

This girl, who looked like nothing had happened before, was probably just deceiving herself.

Kanda Mien's eyes were filled with tears, and she choked up and said, "What if...... If you know who the murderer is, by all means, by all means, by all means, by all means, by all means!"

Lin Hai said softly, "Misono likes Mr. Hirai very much?"

"Hmm. Kanda Mien hung his head and whispered, "Have you ever thought about marrying Genji if, if I grow up, I will marry Genji...... I'm serious, but Genji always treats me like a child, he, he ......"

Kanda Mien burst into tears.

Lin Hai was at a loss for a while, and he didn't know how to comfort her.

Yazawa fell in love and hugged each other, but was pushed away.

"Get out of here!" Kanda Mien roared at Yazawa Ai, "If it weren't for you, if it weren't for you! Genji wouldn't have died! You killed him!"

"That's enough!" Kanda Laiweizi suddenly slapped his sister in the face, and said angrily: "The face of the Kanda family has been lost by you!"

"You're embarrassed to talk about me!" Kanda Mien covered her face and said-for-tat: "Don't think I don't know what you think, don't you want to leave early?"

"Calm down, calm down!"

Lin Hai shouted.

After waiting for a while, Kanda Mien's mood gradually stabilized.

Lin Hai continued, "So, the reason why Misono insisted on going to Hanamikoji was to follow Mr. Hirai?"

"Yes. ”

"You know he's going on a blind date?"

"Hmm. ”

"Why?"

"I overheard. Xuanji went to visit his grandfather in the afternoon. ”

"He has a good relationship with your grandfather?"

"Yes. Mien Kanda said, "Genji has been studying shakuhachi with my grandfather all these years, and to us, he is like family. ”

"How's his level?"

"Xuanji is very powerful! Grandpa said that if it weren't for his identity, he would want to pass on the mantle to him!"

"I've heard about it, too. Koshiro Matsumoto, who had been silent since just now, spoke, "Kanda-sensei also told me about this and said that Mr. Hirai's shakuhachi level is very high. It's a pity that he is not a capable person, he has never performed in public, and although I have been friends with him for many years, I have not had the opportunity to hear about it with my own ears. ”

"That's ......"

Lin Hai touched his chin, pondered for a moment, and asked Kanda Laiweizi: "I don't understand very well." If Misono says that Mr. Hirai is 'like family', why do you just treat him as an ordinary teacher when you are questioned?"

"Is there a problem?" said Kanda, who asked without answering.

"Then I'll change the question. Lin Hai said disapprovingly: "At that time, you said that you were going to get the song sheet, but you didn't come back for a long time, is there any delay?"

"The bag containing the song sheet was in my sister's hand at the time, and because everyone was there, it was not convenient for me to ......"

"What's inconvenient?"

Hikaru Utada asked curiously.

"The ......"

Kanda Laiweizi hesitated, gritted his teeth, and told him about secretly contacting Ai Hui.

Hikaru Utada's eyebrows suddenly rose.

Kanda Laimiko explained: "I didn't betray you, I originally planned to contact Lin Jun later. ”

"It's not important. ”

Lin Hai appeased Hikaru Utada and continued to say to Kanda Laimiko, "You went to the bathroom at that time?"

"Yes. ”

"The restroom is facing the locker room, right?"

"Yes. ”

"Yes!" Uesugi Takashi couldn't hold back again, pointed at Kanda and said, "It can't be wrong!

He patted his head and said with annoyance: "Only you have the time to commit the crime, this kind of thing should have been thought of from the beginning!"

Kanda Laimiko laughed angrily: "What about the evidence?"

Lin Hai followed up and said, "It doesn't take much time to kill a person, but it takes a lot of time to clean up the scene and dispose of the body. If it was really Kanda-san's person who killed her, how could she not have any blood on her body at all?"

"This ......"

Takashi Uesugi is stuck.

Yazawa Ai sarcastically said: "Some people always like to show off their cleverness, and they don't know how to get mixed up with the police department!"

Takatoshi Uesugi blushed and retorted, "It's just a momentary oversight! Besides, if she's okay, then why waste time asking these boring questions?"

"It's not boring. ”

Lin Hai said unhurriedly: "Although Kanda-san, he didn't kill anyone, but he had seen Mr. Hirai before, right?"

Kanda Laiweizi looked at Lin Hai sharply, saw his mouth shape clearly, and his face suddenly changed.

"What did you say?"

Hikaru Utada saw Lin Hai open his mouth and didn't see a sound, and asked curiously.

"Shakuhachi. ”

Lin Hai said, "The shakuhachi on Hirai Genji was given to him by you, right?"

What shakuhachi?

Masao Ota and the police officers looked at each other, confused.

When I was inspecting the site, I didn't see any shakuhachi.

Still, no one was talking much at this time.

Lin Hai saw that Kanda was silent, and continued: "There must be your fingerprints on the shakuhachi, so ......"

"Yes, I've seen him. ”

Kanda relented.

"I went to the bathroom and actually received a text message from him. He said 'want to talk to me'. As for the shakuhachi, you guessed it wrong, it wasn't me who gave it to him, but he was going to give it to me, but I didn't take it. ”

Ota Masao said: "In other words, Genji Hirai was still alive at the time. Make a note of it. He instructed the police officer next to him and continued to ask, "Please give us your phone." ”

Kanda Ramiko pointed to Rika Nomii and said, "The mobile phone has been handed over to the criminal, and as for the text message, it has been deleted." ”

"You also deleted Genji Hirai's mobile phone text messages?"

Rika Nomi asked.

"It's not. ”

"That's ......"

Lin Hai interrupted the two and said, "I'll talk about this question later." Excuse me, Kanda-san, why is Mr. Hirai looking for you?"

He ...... Mr. Hirai: Actually, he confessed to me. ”

Yes?

The mouths of the people around them were wide open.

It's not that there's anything wrong with the confession, but it's about the identities of the two.

Genji Hirai is a school trustee and a teacher, while Yomiko Kanda is his student.

In Japan, teacher-student love is a big taboo!

Don't watch Japanese dramas often put this kind of "forbidden love" on the screen, in fact, this is an absolutely untouchable minefield, even if the teacher is just verbally expressing his love to the students, once it is exposed, what awaits him will be ruined!

Among the people present, only Lin Hai was not surprised by this.

He had vaguely guessed before, but he thought it was a little ridiculous. Genji Hirai, an old man, is indifferent to a big beauty like Ai Yazawa, but he is caught between the Kanda sisters and plays a love triangle, I really don't know what he thinks.

Koshiro Matsumoto's sigh inadvertently revealed the reason.

"Hirai, that's a ...... No wonder he liked The Tale of Genji so much......"

"The Tale of Genji" is a novel written by the Japanese Heian period female writer Murasaki Shikibu, known as the Japanese Dream of Red Mansions. When Matsumoto mentioned this book, he thought he was referring to the "Light Source Cultivation Program".

When everyone heard this, their expressions became strange.

Kanda Ramiko blushed and defended: "It's not like that, Mr. Hirai just, in short, he said 'love at first sight' to me, but ......"

It's better not to explain, what's the difference?

"Sister, you're unexpected!"

"All in all, it's none of me!"

Kanda Laimiko shouted: "I only found out his intentions today, but I rejected him!"

Lin Hai asked, "That's it?"

Kanda replied, "That's it!"

"He didn't tell you anything else?"

"Nope. When he saw me, he asked me if I was going to leave Kyoto, and then he confessed to me and stuffed me with his most beloved shakuhachi, and I rejected him at that time, and it was impossible between me and him. ”

"I see, my question is finished. ”

Lin Hai bowed and apologized to Kanda Raimiko.

In any case, if this matter is exposed, I am afraid it will affect the relationship between the two sisters.

But.

Lin Hai didn't think kindly, anyway, they would fall out because of men in the future......

……

"I think I've guessed who the killer is. ”

Lin Hai's words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Who is the murderer?" asked Takashi Uesugi and Mien Kanda eagerly.

"Let's talk about how he died...... first"

Lin Hai sat on the chair, adjusted a comfortable posture, and slowly explained the reason.

……

Genji Hirai likes shakuhachi.

When he went to Kanda's house to study shakuhachi, he developed feelings for Kanda Raimiko, who was young and fashionable at the time.

This kind of relationship is obviously not accepted by the world, so Hirai Genji has been suppressing his feelings and has been unmarried for many years.

Kanda Meiyuan interrupted Lin Hai: "However, he is obviously very cold to his sister!"

Lin Hai sighed and said, "Men, sometimes they are very awkward, they obviously like a person very much, but they become timid...... He will bring you gifts every time, I'm afraid he just wants to show his tenderness in this way, in order to attract your sister's attention......"

Kanda's eyes darkened.

"There's something I haven't told you. I once received a strange phone call warning me to 'leave Kyoto immediately'. I guess that call was from Mr. Hirai. As for the reason, it should have something to do with the fact that I sent an invitation to you (Lai Weizi). ”

"No wonder he knows ......"

"He doesn't want you to leave Kyoto. Lin Hai said: "To be precise, he doesn't want you to leave his side. If I'm not mistaken, he was going to wait until you graduate from high school to propose to you. As a result, the plan was all disrupted, and on impulse, I chose to confess to you......"

Kanda Lai Weizi shook his head and said, "No matter what, I can't marry him." ”

"That's the problem. Lin Hai asked, "What will he do when he finds out that he is nothing more than wishful thinking and is deeply hit?"

Kanda Laimiko was surprised: "You mean ......"

"Yes, suicide. Mr. Hirai couldn't bear the shattering of his dreams, and in frustration, he chose to cut himself off. ”

"Suicide?" everyone opened their mouths wide.

But if you think about it, it does make sense.

Takashi Uesugi, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, didn't expect such a result in the end, how ugly and ugly his face would be.

"In the end, the murderer is Genji Hirai himself?"

Lin Hai glanced at him and said, "Attention, I'm talking about the cause of death, not the murderer." ”

Kanda thought he was talking about himself and bowed his head deeply.

"Ahh

Seeing this, Kanda Mien couldn't hold back anymore and slapped her.

Lin Hai's eyes were quick and grabbed Kanda Miyuan's arm first.

"What are you doing, let me go!" Mien Kanda struggled like crazy.

"Anyway, she's your sister too. Lin Hai persuaded softly, and then looked at Kanda Laiweizi: "You don't need to be like this, because-"

Lin Hai glanced at the faces in the banquet hall and said word by word-

"The one who caused Hirai to commit suicide is another real murderer!"
