Chapter 46: Eiko Irie pleads guilty
"I'm so sorry that our officer deserves death for speaking so badly to you just now......! So that there is some insanity. He just ...... I must have regarded you as a member of the Extreme Dao Organization!"
Miki lowered her head and begged Eiko Irie not to take Urashima's behavior to heart, because Urashima's actions just now were suspected of threatening the suspect. Even if Irie Eiko is willing to confess, when she arrives in court, she can always use Urashima's behavior as an excuse to admit her guilt, so that the court can acquit her because the evidence is not drunk. In the end, these tricks of intimidation and intimidation may have a little effect on the real lower-level members of the Yakudo organization, but in front of the law-savvy Ben nurses (lawyers), this trick is not worth mentioning at all.
"What? Are you playing the good cop and bad cop tricks again?"
Eiko Irie calmly sat in her seat and responded to Miki. There was nothing on her face that the suspect's fear in the face of the police.
"Huh?"
Miki raised her head in some surprise when she heard Eiko Irie's answer. Unexpectedly, Irie Yongzi just smiled at her, and then said as if chatting:
"That's it, sooner or later you'll find out, right?"
"Miss Irie, what do you mean by this......"
Miki asked, a little confused. She didn't understand why Eiko Irie didn't seem to care about what happened just now.
"I admit it, I killed Hamada-sen!"
……
At the same time as Eiko Irie said these words. Lin Xiuyi, who was thinking about how to end the scene next door, was suddenly startled by Irie Yongzi's words. And standing next to him, Urashima-kun, who was a little dejected, also raised his head in surprise after hearing Eiko Irie admit his crime in person.
"You pleaded guilty? but...... Why should you confess?"
Miki was extremely puzzled, she couldn't figure out why Eiko Irie had to admit that she had killed Hamada. After all, the evidence that the police have now can only prove that she is a cohabitant of Daichi Hamada. Nothing else proves anything.
"There's nothing for why, it's just ...... I just don't want to continue to live with the burden of the past!"
Irie said this meaningfully, and then she closed her eyes, and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye and dripped onto the carpet of the adjustment room.
Miki never expected such a situation. Before the interrogator could ask any questions, the suspect happily confessed that he was the murderer. According to the three elements of conviction, such as authentication, physical evidence, and confession, obtaining the suspect's confession basically means that the case can be closed. However, Miki's heart is not willing to accept such a result. So, she continued to ask Irie Yongzi with some reluctance:
"So, since you admit that you killed Hamada-sen, what is your motive? What is your motive for killing Hamada-sen!"
"The motive, an abandoned woman...... I don't think I need to say anything more about such an old-fashioned case, don't you? Besides, haven't you already found out that Hamada and many women are in relationships at the same time? I don't think I need to say these things that make me sad again!"
Although Irie Yongzi didn't say it explicitly, Lin Xiuyi still heard information related to the case from her words. This is indeed in line with Lin Xiuyi's previous speculation, and Irie Keiko has also used the perfume "Nile Garden". Therefore, her confession has a high degree of credibility. It's so credible that Miki can't fault it at all.
However, even so, Miki still felt that Eiko Irie's confession was too weird, so weird that she couldn't understand why the other party did it. You must know that just last time, when Lin Shuichi and Miki took the initiative to visit Irie Yongzi, the other party's attitude still refused to cooperate with the police. But why now, Eiko Irie, who was originally so strong, actually admitted that she was a murderer?
Seeing that Miki in the next room was silent for a long time, she couldn't ask any more questions. Lin Xiuyi knew that he couldn't stay here any longer. He turned around, pushed open the door to the room, and walked straight into the next room.
Miki and Hanagata saw that Lin Xiuyi was present in person, and they also hurriedly saluted Lin Xiu. Lin Xiuyi only nodded in response, and didn't say anything more. Instead, he glanced at Irie Yongzi, then raised his right hand, stretched out his index finger and asked,
"Can I ask you one last question? Since you admit that you killed Hamada Daichi, can you describe how you killed him?"
"I ...... It was with a knife that I stabbed him like this. Then I ran away in fear. “
Eiko Irie made a forward stab in the air with her right hand.
"Is that so?"
Lin Xiuyi said as he pretended to take a step forward with the knife, and then gestured with his hand to make a stabbing motion.
"Hmm...... Hey! That's pretty much what it should be. “
Irie replied without hesitation.
"Well, okay, I guess I'll stop here today!Also, Miss Irie, because you've already confessed to murder. That's why we're putting you under house arrest from now on. I'll arrange for someone to take you to a makeshift detention cell in a moment. “
As soon as Lin Xiu's happy voice fell, the flower shape in charge of recording stood up and invited Irie Yongzi to leave the transfer room with him. Wait until Hanagata and Eiko Irie go out for a while. Miki came over cautiously and said to Lin Xiuyi:
"Police Department, Irie Yongzi is lying, right, she didn't kill people at all!"
"Hmm...... In fact, there are several obvious mistakes in my demonstration just now, the first of which is that the suspect is a left-hander. The second is that the way and method of the knife are different. Just now, I also deliberately checked the expression of Irie Yongzi when she spoke. She didn't seem to know what was actually happening. It's just that based on media and news reports, the shape of the crime scene was pieced together for granted. And think about it carefully, since it is not something that I have done. Then admit it, and it is inevitable that there will be one kind or another negligence!"
