Chapter 44: Hair and Fingerprints

A TOYOTA ALPHA MPV WITH THE WORDS DEPARTMENT OF THE METROPOLITAN POLICE FOLLOWED A BLACK INFINITI Q70 SEDAN THROUGH A QUIET RESIDENTIAL AREA AND SLOWLY PARKED IN FRONT OF A DETACHED HOUSE WITH A CORDON ON THE PERIMETER OF THIS UPSCALE NEIGHBORHOOD.

"Bang!"

With the sound of a door opening. Miki stepped out of the car and closed the door again. The Toyota ALPHA MPV parked behind him also opened its doors almost at the same time, and several colleagues in the forensic division wearing blue uniforms immediately stepped out of the car and came to Miki's side to listen to her instructions. Miki stretched out her hand and pointed to the building in front of her, and said politely to everyone:

"This is it, please take a closer look and see if there are any new valuable clues that can be found. ”

"Hi Babble......"

The colleagues in the forensic class responded in unison, and then each walked into the room with their own professional tools.

Miki saw that everyone had entered the house, so she took out her mobile phone and dialed Lin Xiuyi's number.

"The Police Department's Forensic Division has resumed its on-site investigation of Hamada's home. Excuse me, do you have any other instructions?"

"Miki, I'm working with Aizawa and the others right now to sort out the evidence that has been collected so far. If all goes well, I think, we should find some useful clues!"

……

Lin Xiuyi and Miki had a brief communication and hung up the phone. At this moment, Aizawa is conducting a new investigation into the mobile phone communication of the suspect Keiko Nagao according to the request of Lin Shuichi.

"Come out, police department, this is the record of all the communication transmissions in the Imperial Palace Square-Niju Bridge area that night. You see, this is the phone call record of Nagao Keiko that night. ”

Aizawa skillfully entered Keiko's phone number in the search box, and after a while, the system fed back the results that Aizawa wanted to query. At this moment, Lin Xiuyi suddenly discovered a situation that he had not discovered before.

"Wait a minute, Aizawa-kun, look here, why haven't we found this communication before?"

"Hmm...... Strangely, it was called at 9:53 p.m., and according to the record of the surveillance video, Jingzi was found at 9:58. Wait a minute, is it called, why can't you find out! It's really strange, the police department is really sorry, we ...... We did not find this communication record in the suspect's mobile phone before. ”

"Can't find it, can you? Forget it...... I seem to already know who the call is for. ”

A phone number that can't be found, except for Nobuko Ando, who is the Minister of Justice, Lin Xiu can't think of anyone else. In other words, it is likely that Keiko notified Minister Ando as soon as she found out that Hamada Daichi had been killed. Later, she deleted the communication record from her phone. Why did Jingzi do this? Lin Xiuyi felt that there must be some unknown truth in this.

From the phone being called, to witnesses discovering Keiko's whereabouts. That's five minutes. The woman remained calmly next to the corpse for five minutes, during which time she also called the Minister Ando, who she worked for. What did they say on the phone, and could it be directly related to Hamada's death?

Lin Xiuyi kept repeating these questions in his mind. I think of what Keiko said to him when he went to visit Keiko yesterday. Now that I think about it, Keiko's sudden confession to herself shouldn't be the reason she said. No matter how you look at it, it looks like she has arranged it a long time ago. However, if it was really Keiko who killed Hamada, why did he say such things that would not be beneficial to Minister Ando or her situation?

"Police Department! Police Department?"

Lin Xiuyi's ears suddenly heard Aizawa's shout, and he woke up from his thoughts again. At this moment, he couldn't help but think back to what Keiko did in the Tokyo subway bombing. She and Ando joined forces to teach a lesson in the search, and the Public Safety Committee and even the Minister of Justice played with it. With this scheming and calculation, Lin Xiuyi is definitely willing to bow down. In fact, Lin Xiuyi was finally able to know the inside story by relying on his extraordinary analytical ability. And this alone is enough to make Nobuko Ando jealous of herself.

"I'm sorry, Aizawa-kun, I just thought of something suddenly, and I didn't notice the situation on your side for a while. What's wrong?"

"Police, your phone rang just now, I want to ...... Is there something new on Miki's side?"

"Ah...... I'm going to call and ask!"

As soon as Lin Xiu spoke, he hurriedly picked up his phone from the table. Then I checked my call history, and sure enough, there was a missed call from Miki on my phone.

Lin Xiuyi pressed the callback button and directly called the phone back. As soon as the voice of the other side of the waiting rang twice, Miki answered the phone.

"The police department?"

"Miki, what's wrong, is there anything new?"

"Hey, we found some long hair belonging to women in the floor drain in the bathroom of Hamada's house. In addition, a fingerprint of the index finger was found on the inner wall of the wardrobe of the Hamada family. As for the specific results, I'm afraid we won't know for sure until we get back. ”

Hearing that Miki found long hair that belongs to women in the floor drain of Hamada's house. Lin Xiuyi's hanging heart could finally be put down. For the rest, as long as the forensic class compares the fingerprints on the business card sent by Eiko Irie with the newly discovered fingerprints in the closet of Hamada's house, if it can be confirmed that there are indeed matching fingerprints. Then Lin Xiuyi can apply for a search warrant to bring back Eiko Irie, and then further examine the samples of those hairs found in the bathroom today.

Twenty minutes later, when Miki and the others returned to the criminal department with the newly collected samples, the colleagues in the forensic division immediately took out the fingerprints extracted from Eiko Irie's business card. The technicians then made negatives of the newly collected fingerprints and sent them to the fingerprint identification equipment for comparison with the original fingerprint samples. Soon, a prompt appeared on the computer screen that made Lin Xiuyi feel gratified.

"Identification results - match!"

"Police Department!"

"Immediately apply for a search warrant from your superiors, and at the same time search Jiang Yongzi's house and her office. Also, immediately send someone to bring Irie Yongzi back for questioning, and as soon as she arrives at the Metropolitan Police Department, I will give her a DNA test first, I want to see what else she has to say in the face of ironclad facts!"
