"I'm sorry, I really killed the person, and it has nothing to do with Yongzi!"

Shinki Mansai sat quietly opposite Aizawa, bowed his head a little ashamedly, and then admitted his crime to Aizawa in a sincere tone.

"But I don't regret doing that! I think...... It's the only time I've been able to do what a father should do for Eiko!"

When Shinki Mansai raised his head again, he said the above words to Aizawa again. It can be seen from his attitude that he did not realize his mistake by killing people. In his words, he seemed to regard this as a kind of responsibility of his own, a kind of responsibility similar to that of a father to his daughter.

"So, the reason why you killed Hamada Daichi was for your daughter Eiko Irie, right?"

Aizawa asked Shinki Mansai in a calm tone. Hanagata sat in front of the computer in the corner, quietly recording the conversation between the two.

"Hi...... What kind of person Hamada Daichi is, as a former classmate, I really can't understand it. This guy has always been very popular with women since he was young. In some ways, this is a special talent, but I have always looked down on people like him in my heart. ”

"When did you start planning to kill Daichi Hamada?"

"Is this this? I guess I already had this idea when I knew about the relationship between Hamada and Eiko!"

Shinki Mansai sighed, and then he took off his glasses a little decadently and gently wiped them a few times with the corners of his clothes.

"Can you tell me more about the situation? I mean, the matter between you and Eiko Irie!"

"Me and Eiko...... Speaking of which, I'm so sorry for this kid!"

"Eiko's mother and I met in an izakaya in Ginza. My wife's family is a very prestigious family, and I am just a lucky person who was admitted to Tokyo University from the countryside. So, from falling in love all the way to getting married, I couldn't hold my head up at home. On the contrary, it was during the period when my wife was pregnant and returned to her parents' house to recuperate, that I felt a little more relaxed......"

"Because I had some spare money and my wife wasn't at home, I used to go to Ginza with my friends to pass the time. After a few times, I got to know Eiko......'s mother! Then ......"

"And then she became your lover?

Aizawa suddenly took over the topic and helped Shinki Mansai say these unspeakable words.

"Hi...... I'm so ashamed!"

"So...... After you've been living together for a while, the other person is pregnant with Yongzi, right?"

Aizawa asked Shinki Mansai again.

"Hi...... At that time, my wife was about to come back from her mother's house! I was going to give Yongzi's mother a sum of money, and I would have completely cut her off. However, it was at this time that she ...... She told me she was pregnant and said she was going to give birth!"

"She threatened me that if I didn't give her money, he would tell my wife about me and her!"

"I thought it was just a one-off deal, after all, we had been together for a while, and it was right to give her some compensation!, however, I didn't know at the time that this was just the beginning of a nightmare, and since then, every once in a while, the woman would ask me for another sum of money, saying that it was for Yongzi's child support. Although I was bored, I put up with it because Eiko was my own daughter. Because of this, although Eiko and I have never met, I have always cherished the photos of Eiko from childhood to adulthood. It wasn't until she ran away from home at the age of 16 that I completely lost news of her from her mother......"

"Later, when I saw Eiko again, I was really surprised! I didn't expect that she would be so good and become the secretary in charge of policy in Hamada Daichi! At that time, I was really proud and proud of her......

Aizawa heard this, and once again took the initiative to ask Shinki Mansai:

"So, the reunion between you and Eiko Irie is because of the land of Hamada?"

"Hi...... I'm not a fan of Hamada, and I haven't been in touch with him since I graduated from university. Until after I won the Akutagawa Prize. I just got another call from him. He seemed to want me to be on a TV show, and wanted me to praise him on TV as his friend, and I thought it would be just a gesture, so I agreed to his request. After that, Hamada brought Eiko to the school to look for me...... When I saw Eiko, who had been lost for many years, I had mixed feelings......"

When Shinki Mansai said this, he may have touched his own sadness. His tone became choked, and he subconsciously wiped his tears with his sleeve.

"You mean to say that Hamada knows about the relationship between you and Naiko?"

Aizawa asked carefully with some concern.

"No, he didn't know about the relationship between me and Eiko! In fact, even Eiko herself didn't know that I was her real father at the time!"

"What happened between you? What happened between you that made you finally want to kill?"

"Since that meeting with Hamada, my relationship with Hamada has gradually become familiar, and I have more and more opportunities to meet Eiko! Hamada is still the same person as before, he likes to maintain relationships with different women at the same time, and he is happy to cheat on these poor women. He had flaunted his women to me more than once in private. I didn't take this hobby of his seriously at first, because I just wanted to keep in touch with Eiko through him!"

"However, when he told me about Eiko's relationship with him once, I was completely enraged! I swore that I would find a chance to get Eiko out of Hamada's ......."

"So, your killing of Hamada was actually premeditated, right?"

"Hi...... So that night, I followed him with a stalk of Yaninin bunding that I bought from the supermarket. Because during the day, I asked him to go for a drink at night, but he said that he had already made arrangements. So, I had no choice but to abandon my original plan, and I waited for a full day outside the House of Representatives' Hall. I watched him get out of there and get into a taxi. So, I called a car and followed!"

"When Hamada got out of the palace square, he hid in the woods! I felt that this was a rare opportunity from God, so I followed him inside. When I got to the depths of the woods, I called his name from behind. He turned around and was a little surprised to see my presence. But he still smiled and walked over to say hello to me. At that moment, I grabbed him from the front and stabbed the blade into his body......"

"I knew Hamada had a penchant for perfume for women he had a relationship with, so I left some traces of perfume on the hilt of the knife to draw the attention of the police to his women. The only exception was Eiko, who had already prepared an alibi for him, and I left her in the research room at Musashino University and asked her to wait for me to go back. Wait for me to go back and confess to him that I am her father......"
