Chapter 24: Motivation
"Hashimoto-san, you're going to give us a lot of headaches!"
Lin Xiuyi asked Kono Shohei to deal with the suicide of Yasuo Hashimoto, because Lin Xiuyi felt that Kono was born with a talent for dealing with people, and convincing others that this kind of thing should be better than the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' affairs officer.
"I'm so sorry for causing you such a big trouble, and I really deserve to die in the next place!" Yasuo Hashimoto sat upright on the cushion and bowed his head deeply to admit his mistake to Kono.
"Hashimoto-san, don't talk about the word dead anymore, we really don't want this kind of thing to happen, come, please bookmark this promise!" Shohei Kono said as he put a written letter of commitment in front of Yasuo Hashimoto, who hesitated for a moment, then picked up the pen at hand and signed his name one by one.
After Shohei Kono signed his name at Hashimoto, he picked up the pledge from the table, read it carefully, and then folded it satisfactorily and put it in his pocket.
Now I should be able to give an errand to Lin Xiuyi, Kono Shohei stood up, said goodbye to Yasuo Hashimoto, and went straight to find Lin Xiuyi. This trip to the Senhousa train was really rewarding for Shohei Kono, and the biggest gain was getting to know JR East's Ishibashi Specialist. Secondly, being able to establish a friendship with Lin Shuichi is also an important gain for Kono Shohei to build his own network.
Kono's return to China was several months later than Lin Xiuyi's overnight, and Kono knew a lot of new information about the follow-up progress of the Green River Killer case. With a large number of victims and decades of crime, the Green River Killers has attracted sustained media and public attention from the day it was announced, and people wondered what kind of person was Yuri Rommel, the murderer who committed such a horrific case.
It's ironic to say that the case of the Green River killer was solved by Lin Xiu, but the media and the public are far more interested in the murderer than the police officer who solved the case. However, Shohei Kono knows that the evaluation of Lin Xiuyi within the FBI is very high. The case of the Green River Killer was even compiled into the FBI's internal textbook as a classic case for training federal agents.
Just before Kono returned to China, Kenji Kanno, the liaison officer of the Japanese National Police Agency in the United States, told Kono at the wine table that the FBI was interested in hiring Lin Shuichi as a foreign consultant because he took a fancy to Lin Xiuyi's outstanding performance in the Green River killer case. Although the FBI has not yet made a final announcement of this news, it is very credible. As long as this news is transmitted back to China, Lin Xiuyi will definitely become a rising star of the Metropolitan Police Department.
It is precisely because of knowing these unknown inside stories that Kono has the intention of befriending Lin Xiuyi. And now, because of a series of events that happened on this train, the relationship between Shohei Kono and Shuichi Hayashi has taken a step further.
At this moment, Lin Xiuyi is in a makeshift room, engaged in a final battle with Yasuyuki Nanda, the real murderer who killed Erika Shiraishi.
"Mr. Nanda, I don't think you should know your situation without me explaining, even the testimony of Haruko Kakiya is enough to convict you......
Lin Xiuyi sat at the back of the table, making a final inquiry to Yasuyuki Nantian as if he was chatting with an acquaintance. Lin Xiuyi didn't add any restraint to Nantian's body, so in this room, Nantian could still move freely.
"Really, then why are we still delaying time here?" Nan Tian retorted to Lin Xiuyi with a lonely expression, and then smiled self-deprecatingly, shaking his head helplessly.
"Motive!I want to know why you killed Erika Shiraishi, what happened between you, things have come to this point, I don't think you need to hide it anymore......"
Lin Xiuyi hopes that Yasuyuki Nanda can let go of the illusions in his heart and correctly recognize his situation. At such a time, no one can save Yasuyuki Nanda. The charge of homicide is already conclusive, and the evidence is conclusive. So, Lin Shuichi was eager to hear what really happened between Erika Shiraishi and Yasuyuki Minamida.
"It's already dawn, and I've never seen the sunrise on a train!"
The direction of the Senhou train is from south to north, along the east coast of Japan, and at this moment, at the end of the horizon, you can already see a ray of light, this kind of sight always gives people endless confidence, but Nanda Yasuyuki's life has completely fallen into endless darkness because of tonight.
"yes, if you don't say it, I really haven't noticed, it's really amazing!" Lin Xiuyi stood up and moved his chair to the side of Nantian Yasuyuki, also enjoying the sunrise outside the window. Lin Xiuyi was attracted by this scene, but he also noticed that Nantian Kang beside him wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves from time to time.
"Killing people is not a pleasant experience, right?" Lin Xiuyi suddenly said as if talking to himself, he didn't look at Nantian Yasuyuki, and continued to enjoy the sunrise.
"It's so bad, I've never felt like this, but I never thought that there would be a police officer on the train that you hate, and that's the worst thing, haha...... Ha...... Hah!" Yasuyuki Nanda burst into tears and laughed.
Lin Xiuyi turned his head and looked at Nantian Yasuyuki. Lin Xiuyi didn't feel angry about Nantian's statement, because he could tell that Nantian had completely let it go now.
"I don't like you either, I spent so much money on a trip, but I didn't sleep all night when I was killed by you, I feel that this money is really not worth it!"
"Ah...... Ha ha...... Hahaha!"
As soon as Lin Xiuyi said this, Nan Tian and Lin Xiu both laughed, especially Nan Tian, tears ran down the corners of his eyes, but he kept patting his thighs and laughing wildly, that kind of expression really made people feel pitiful and pathetic.
……
Ten minutes later, Yasuyuki Nanda, whose emotions had been fully vented, rearranged his appearance, and then told Lin Shuichi about the intricate emotional entanglement between him and Erika Shiraishi.
"I met Eri-chan back in high school, when I was a problem student that everyone in the school was afraid of, and Eri-chan was like a princess in the school, and she could only be looked up to from a distance by people like me. Luckily, I was in the same direction as Eri-chan's home, so I could often see her from afar on the way back, and at that time, I fantasized about how nice it would be if I could hold her hand every day......
