Chapter 37: A Visit to Ms. Yokoi

"Police Department, this is the Yokoi Apartment!"

"Uh...... It looks like it's a building that's been around for some time, so that lady Yokoi seems to be the owner of this apartment!"

"Hi, her full name is Yokoi Wanli, she is the owner of this apartment, we found out that she is not married, nor does she have any criminal record, according to the information we got from the nearby police station, Yokoi Wanli lives here on weekdays, and her source of life is mainly dependent on the rent of this apartment to maintain her ......"

"Alas...... A woman who is not short of money, no wonder she has never been married at this age!"

"Is the Aso Police Department strange about women who are not married?"

"Ah...... I'm sorry! I'm just going to sigh a little bit about it! By the way, I'm not married either! And when I was at the Shinjuku Chuo Police Station, there were many colleagues who were women who were not married!"

……

Everyone stood outside the apartment and observed, and soon found an exit for pets under the door of an apartment on the first floor. After seeing this special place, Lin Xiuyi led everyone to the door of the apartment, and then found the word Yokoi on the name plate on the side.

"Knock knock!"

"Excuse me, is anyone home?"

"Who!"

"We're from the Metropolitan Police Department's search section, and there's something we'd like to ask you about...... May I delay you for some time?"

"Ahem!"

There was a coughing sound from inside the door, and soon there was the sound of footsteps and the door opening.

"Ahem! You're ......"

"Ah...... I'm Lin Shuichi from the Special Search Department of the First Section, and this is the Aso Police Department of the First Department......! Did you visit Koban last week near the Mikawa Island residential area?"

"Uh...... I remember, excuse me...... Ahem, I'm sorry, I've been sick for the past few days, so I haven't paid attention to the tote bag. ”

"Ms. Yokoi, we're here today to talk to you about the tote bag......! Can we go in?"

"Ah...... Of course, you see me...... It's so rude, usually except when I pay the rent, basically no one comes to me, everyone please come in!"

As she spoke, Ms. Yokoi let everyone into the room.

"I'll make you some tea!"

"Oh...... It's hard work!"

When Lin Xiuyi walked into this apartment, the strong contrast with the dilapidated outside was the cleanliness and tidiness of the room, although this was only a slightly more spacious single apartment, but the layout in the room was very warm and comfortable. There are green plants on the coffee table in the living room, there are many books neatly placed on the bookshelf next to it, and under the cat tree in the corner, the snow-white kitten is sleeping quietly underneath. It can be seen that the Yokoi woman is a very life-oriented person.

When the tea was served, Ms. Yokoi sat down on the seat next to her. Then he asked Lin Xiuyi and the others with some puzzlement:

"Excuse me...... Have you found the owner of the tote bag?"

"Pardon me for taking the liberty of this, don't you know what's going on these days?"

"Eh...... Nani: What do you mean by that?"

"May I ask you why you went to the Koban in Mikawashima that day?"

"Eh, I found a handbag that looked expensive in my seat in the park that day, so I took it to Mr. Policeman, excuse me...... Any questions?"

"Ten minutes after you left there, there was an explosion over there!"

"Explosion...... Explosions? Are you telling the truth?"

And we suspect that the cause of the explosion was because of the bag you sent over...... So, today, we just want to ask about that bag. ”

"How could it be...... How so!"

"Ms. Yokoi, please don't be sad, we believe that you are just being used by a suspect. ”

"Why...... Why is this happening! What happened to that officer, is he okay?"

Ms. Yokoi said to herself, tears streaming down her eyes. It can be seen that she does feel very sad to learn that there was an explosion because of herself.

"I'm sorry, but Officer Yano, who was on duty at the time, was killed! By the way, Ms. Yokoi, did you go to the park that day to take care of the stray cats in the park?"

"Hey, I don't usually go out much, except to go to the nearby supermarket, but to the park to take care of the poor kittens. ”

Ms. Yokoi lowered her head and replied to Lin Shuichi with a gloomy expression.

"So...... Can you recall the day you found that tote bag?"

"This ...... Hey!"

"Can you please remember what happened when you left the house that day?"

"This ...... I remember, I left home at 5:30 p.m. that day, and I was ...... I went to the ramen shop at the intersection to have a bite to eat, and then, as usual, walked to the shopping street on the other side of Mikawa Island, and then ...... I bought some cat food at my pet store on the other side of the shopping street and went straight to the park!"

"What time did you arrive at the park?"

"Huh? Probably ...... Six o'clock!"

"At that time...... Is there anyone else in the park besides you?"

"This ...... At that time, there didn't seem to be many people in the park! And that's why I went there to take care of the kittens!"

"And then, how did you find that tote bag?"

"Hmm...... I found it on a park bench, and when I opened it a little, I found that there was a gift box wrapped in a heart. I thought that someone might have forgotten the gift for someone else here, and how anxious the person who lost the bag must have been! Moreover, the tote bag knew that it was expensive at a glance, so I waited there for a while, and after half a day I didn't see anyone looking for the tote bag, so I thought I might as well send it to the policeman!"

"So...... Did you notice anyone following you when you returned the bag?"

"This ...... I remember there weren't any people on the streets!"

"And then, did you send that tote bag to Kabanban and go straight home?"

"Well, I suddenly remembered that there was a nice Japanese sweets shop over there, so I thought I would stop by and take a look, so I went to the other side to take a ride. ”
