Chapter 29: New Speculation
"Ms. Sakurako Sakurai, how do you explain the large amount of cash you are carrying?"
The thing that worries Sakurako the most still happens, and the cash she carries with her is indeed discovered by the Aomori Prefectural Police. The Aomori Prefectural Police immediately notified Lin Shuichi that it was Uchikai Ryuichi who was sitting opposite Sakurako in Takumi and questioning her, and Lin Shuichi was standing in the next room, observing the entire interrogation process through a single lens. Sakurako has now regretted her death, and in the end, she still hasn't escaped from the hands of Lin Xiuyi, a young policeman who feels like a rookie at first, but is actually an old fox.
"The money...... Be...... It's for me to buy a property in Aomori, officer, I can explain to you where the money came from, as long as you contact the Shirai section manager of the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, you can figure out that this money is completely legal income from my personal business......" said Sergeant Sakurako Sakura, who now completely regretted why she ran away with so much money in the first place, and if she had to choose again, she would rather give up this huge amount of money as long as she escaped abroad safely.
Hearing Sakurako's statement, Uchimi Ryuki suddenly glanced in the direction of the single lens where Lin Shuichi was, and without Uchikai Ryuichi's orders, his inspectors went to verify Sakurako's testimony. Lin Xiuyi beckoned to the other inspector standing aside, and then said a few words to him softly.
The inspector bowed respectfully to Lin Xiuyi, then left the room and came to the next door, repeating Lin Xiuyi's words to Utsumi Ryuichi as they were.
After listening to the information from his subordinates' patrols, Uchikai Ryuyi nodded gratefully in the direction of the single lens. Sakurako Nakumi noticed this action of Utsumi Ryuichi, and she looked at the single lens in horror, although she could only see her own appearance, she knew that Lin Shuichi was standing behind that mirror.
"Ms. Sakurako, we still have to verify the huge amount of money you are carrying, but I have another question for you, have you heard of Kenji Mukaijima?"
As soon as Uchikai Ryuichi said this, Sakurako's face instantly turned pale, and she began to take the initiative to avoid Uchikai Ryuichi's gaze, and replied with flickering words: "No...... Oh no...... I've heard that!"
The change in Sakurako Takumi immediately aroused the alarm of Ryuichi Utsukai, and even Shuichi Hayashi, who was standing behind the single lens, sensed Sakurako's problem.
Utsumi Ryuichi carefully paid attention to Sakurako's expression, and then asked, "So, do you know Kenji Mukaijima himself?"
"No, I don't know! I've just heard my friends mention it, and I don't know much about him!"
Sakurako's mind is blank now, but she still tries her best to calm down, but the police know that Kenji Mukaishima has obviously brought a great blow to Sakurako's mood, and she is now starting to be afraid.
"It's okay, you can tell us whatever you know, anything, just treat it as a small talk between us!"
Utsumi Ryuichi has also been a policeman for more than ten years, and the moment he saw Sakurako's reaction, he knew that he was asking the other party's point. If Sakurako really wants to hide something, then she has to rely on one lie after another to get through in a very short period of time, and the lies told in a hurry are naturally full of flaws.
"Well, I only know that this person seems to be the young owner of the Mukaijima group, and he doesn't seem to be a good person, but these are all hearsay, so I shouldn't be sure!" Sakurako said with her head down, her words flickering.
Lin Shuichi, who was standing in the next room, seemed to understand something from the moment Sakurako Takudai answered the first question. Erika Shiraishi's other accomplice against Sakurako is likely to be this Kenji Mukaijima. But I don't know why, Kenji Mukaishima suddenly disappeared, so Erika Shiraishi found Yasuyuki Minamida again, but in the end, he couldn't harm others but hurt himself.
As for Sakurako Tazui, with so much money, it's obvious that he wants to run away, so he must have done something to Kenji Mukaijima. Thinking of this, Lin Xiuyi picked up his phone again and dialed Miki's phone.
"Moses Moses!"
"Miki-chan, help me investigate the relationship between this Kazuran and its owners and Kenji Mukaijima. If my guess is correct, Kenji Mukaijima has probably been killed by Kazukaze's proprietress Sakurako......" Lin Shuichi explained on the phone.
"I see, police department, and I regret your father's affairs, please pay your respects!" Miki said on the other side of the phone.
"Thanks, Miki!"
After ending the call, Lin Xiuyi felt that maybe he should change his questioning strategy, and now Lin Xiuyi was very sure that Sakurako Takuri was planning to run away after killing Kenji Mukaijima, as for why he wanted to take Cassiopeia to Aomori, Lin Xiuyi hadn't figured it out yet. Maybe Erika Shiraishi did something that held back Sakurako's footsteps.
As soon as Lin Xiu thought of this, he left the room directly, and then knocked on the door next door!
Lin Xiuyi glanced at Sakurako who was sitting inside through the crack in the door, and then pulled Utsumi Ryuichi aside and whispered to Utsumi:
"It's likely that this Sakurako Takumi is carrying so much cash because she killed someone and wanted to run away, can you please think of a way to see if she can explain the problem herself? At the same time, I also want to conduct a careful investigation of Sakurako's belongings, do you think it's okay?"
"And how do you want to investigate?" asked Utsumi Ryuichi curiously.
"Let's check the items she was carrying with her first and see if I could find out if there was a problem, and I'd like to ask you to take a closer look at any traces of Sakurako's box in Erika Shiraishi's box. ”
Lin Xiuyi knew that what he said was too broad, and it might add a lot of trouble to the Aomori County police, but now Lin Xiuyi didn't have any good solutions. If the body is not found, the case cannot be filed, and if the case cannot be filed, then it will delay Sakurako for 48 hours at most.
Lin Xiuyi knew very well in his heart that if he couldn't find Kenji Mukaijima's body as soon as possible, Sakurako Takudai might leave the country at will, and at that time, all the investigations would be useless.
However, there is one more thing that Lin Shuichi is very concerned about, and that is why Erika Shiraishi suddenly told Yasuyuki Minamida that she was going to give up her plan to deal with Sakurako Takudai. Before Erika Shiraishi was killed, what happened to her and Sakurako Takuii?
