Chapter 45: Skynet is restored but not leaked
As the door to the retrieval room was pushed open. Lin Shuichi and Miki walked into the room one after the other. Lin Xiuyi raised his hand and pulled away the chair opposite Imai Takashi, and then sat down. Miki, on the other hand, sat in front of the desk against the wall, gently lifted the screen of the laptop, and then nodded to Lin Xiu, indicating that she was ready.
"So. Mr. Imai, we can continue yesterday's conversation now!"
Lin Xiu glanced at Imai Takashi, and the other party was also staring at Lin Xiuyi with a cold gaze at this time. It can be seen that although Imai Takashi's confession attitude is quite happy, he has not yet accepted the display of his failure. In fact, it was his experience as a police officer that made Imai Takashi choose to confess rather than confront, because he knew that the more he confessed his problems before his accomplices, the more he would be given a light sentence by the judge during the trial. Therefore, Imai Takashi's cooperation is not actually because his own psychological defense line has been breached, but because of self-preservation.
"We've just questioned Makura, and his confession is basically very consistent with what you have confessed, except for a few places. I think you should have expected that, so would you like to talk about why you got involved in these two cases and committed the unforgivable crime?"
Lin Xiuyi ignored the other party's eyes looking at him, because as long as the other party was willing to cooperate, the next thing would be a game between the prosecutor and the lawyer. Lin Xiuyi was not interested at all in who would bear the responsibility for the criminal principal offenders in these two cases. As for the other party's attitude, Lin Xiuyi is actually very clear. Maybe he was not convinced, and the trap of his carefully subordinate subordinates was finally seen through......
"I can tell you anything you want, because I'm your defeated man now. It's the fate of losers, isn't it, but I never understand what went wrong with me that gave you the chance to catch me?"
Takashi Kanai suddenly leaned over and whispered something slightly provocative to Lin Xiuyi. As soon as Lin Xiu saw his appearance, he knew that he had just accepted the fact that he had failed, but he had not reflected on his mistakes from the depths of his heart. So, naturally, he didn't feel any guilt about the two dead and his actions. Imai Takashi may have just blamed the injustice of fate for this failure, but who knows?
"If I tell you that there is nothing wrong with everything you have done, and that your current fate was predestined the moment you decided to sin, I wonder if you would understand the meaning of my words. ”
Lin Xiuyi was not stimulated by Imai Takashi's words, on the contrary, he said the above words to Imai Takashi in a flat tone. Subsequently, without waiting for Imai Takashi to continue to ask, Lin Xiuyi took the initiative to explain.
"In fact, in my opinion, these two cases did not leave much chance for the police, so they can basically be counted as perfect crimes. The two murderers, who had interests with the victim, killed strangers who had nothing to do with them for each other. And it also creates a perfect alibi. As a police officer, you naturally understand this. Moreover, the deceased was also an elderly person who lived alone, and the manner of death could easily be judged by the police as suicide. The most important thing is that the police officer in charge of one of the cases is actually you, who is standing behind the scenes and planning everything, so to speak, you have done everything you can think of to the extreme......"
The first to suspect Professor Noguchi's suicide was Professor Noguchi's former student. It was he who entrusted me to Hokkaido to investigate Professor Noguchi's death, which caused you, Makura and others, who thought they would be able to cross the sea, into a panic. ”
"But from my point of view, what I was concerned about at first was that there were so many similarities between the two cases that it almost felt like a complete set of criminal templates. However, this kind of thing is only intuition after all, and it cannot be treated as evidence for filing a case. So after becoming suspicious, I investigated a little along the direction of the murder, and soon found out that there was a problem with the clothes that Professor Noguchi was wearing when he died, according to my investigation, Professor Noguchi always wore a tattooed hakama at every important moment during his lifetime, so his suicide in a suit was very abnormal. So, this is also the key to my final and convincing the Metropolitan Police Department to take over the case. ”
And then, because the case that had been designated as a suicide was reopened. And if you weren't there when Asuda killed and set up the scene, you naturally won't feel at ease. As a result, if Asuda can't recall exactly where he touched the room, you can only choose to erase all traces of the scene. However, this only further illustrates the problems of the case itself. ”
"Later, it was the charcoal basin that had been kept by the identification class from the beginning. Because we gradually traced the existence of an indecent love affair between Mrs. Asuda and Kobayashi Shuntaro. So Asuda naturally had a reason to kill Kobayashi Shuntaro. But when Kobayashi Shuntaro died, Asuda had ample alibi evidence. Thinking about it this way, there is a high degree of similarity between the two cases. Therefore, it is not difficult to associate in the direction of exchanging killings. Therefore, I managed to temporarily cut off Asutian's phone signal, and while you couldn't contact your accomplices, I had to take the risk of cleaning up possible criminal evidence for the other party, so it's not surprising that you stepped into the trap of my subordinates, because everything was actually doomed when you were involved in the case......"
Lin Xiuyi analyzed the reasons for his failure from the perspective of a case-handling officer for Imai Takashi from the beginning. Imai Takashi was indeed aware of all the evidence of the crime, but he also completely exposed himself because of it. And these questions are things that Imai Takashi has never considered before. A series of circumstantial evidence that could not convict the suspect finally drove Imai Takashi to a dead end, isn't this male knife an arrangement from fate in the dark?
Maybe it's like what Lin Xiuyi said, in fact, since Imai Takashi had murderous intentions and planned this series of murder cases, he has been unable to escape the fate of being punished by the law. There is a force in the darkness that has brought him to where he is today.
