Chapter 32: Flaws Everywhere

"Good morning, police department!"

"Good morning, Urashima-kun!

"Uh...... Thank you for the compliment!"

……

When Urashima Yuto walked into the office early in the morning, he saw Lin Shuichi brewing coffee as soon as he entered the door. I saw him elegantly pick up the long-spouted hand-poured pot, and carefully poured the hot water in the pot into the coffee powder in the filter cup. Soon, the dry ground coffee is stimulated by the hot water and emits a unique aroma.

"Ah...... It's a pleasure to smell it every day!"

"Would you like a cup? Mr. Matsuda doesn't seem to be here today, but I'm used to brewing the same coffee as usual, these are new products from Sakura-no-Sato, using precious coffee beans that I accidentally obtained before, and I haven't officially sold them yet!"

"Oh...... Is that okay? Then you're welcome!"

As he spoke, Urashima came to Lin Xiuyi's side with a coffee cup a little embarrassed, and Lin Xiuyi poured a cup of coffee from the pot for Urashima after removing the filter cup.

When taking a sip of warm coffee, Pu Dao first sighed comfortably, and then asked Lin Xiuyi:

"Police Department, why didn't you see Miki's seniors today!"

"She's supposed to go to the District Attorney's Office to deliver the materials first, and she should be back later......"

Lin Xiuyi was talking, and suddenly asked from Pu Dao's body for a burst of vague aroma, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious in his heart. However, thinking that it was inconvenient for him to inquire about Urashima's private affairs, he temporarily suppressed his curiosity.

When the cup of coffee was finished, Lin Xiuyi suddenly remembered that he still had something to go to Miss Chiyo's side, so he said to Urashima:

"Urashima-kun, there were still some exhibits stored in the forensic officer Tanaka, and now that the case is over, I think we should return those exhibits to the original owner!"

"Oh...... Police Department, then...... Let's go now!"

"Hmm!"

……

After the two of them explained these things, they left the office of the special search department together. Then they went straight to the place where Chiyo Tanaka worked, and when they came here, they happened to meet Aizawa and Hanagatari, and when they saw that Lin Shuichi and Urashima also came here, Aizawa and Hanagata hurriedly greeted Lin Shuichi:

"Police, long time no see......!

"Oh...... In the previous case, there were some items to be returned to the people involved in the case, and we happen to be fine now, so we made a special trip to take these exhibits and return them to their original owners. Oh, yes, what are you here for? ...... Is it because there's a new case at hand?"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's inquiry, Aizawa and Hanagata replied with some embarrassment:

"Originally, there was a case, but now it is almost certain that the victim committed suicide, so ...... We plan to wait for the relevant report here, and if there are no problems, we can send it to close the case!"

……

Just as Lin Xiuyi and Aizawa were chatting, the Tanaka forensic medical officer, who had been busy inside, finally walked into the room with a report, and then said to Aizawa and Lin Xiuyi with a relaxed face:

"Our autopsy report has come out, confirming that the deceased did die from a hemorrhage at the base of the skull caused by a fall from a height, and ...... We also did not find any signs of a fight on the body of the deceased, and no suspicious drug ingredients were detected in the body of the deceased, so ...... I don't think it's a problem if it's judged to be a suicide!"

"Huh...... Did the shoe prints on that balcony bear fruit?"

"Well, there is a result, it is indeed the sole of the deceased's shoe! So, he must have climbed onto the railing of the balcony with one foot and jumped off......"

As she spoke, Chiyo took out a photo of the corpse's shoes and a photo of the shoe prints on the balcony, and then showed them to the two. There are many photos of shoes, not only soles, but also uppers, Lin Xiuyi, who was standing on the side, also took a look at it out of curiosity, who knew that at this moment, he suddenly picked up the photo and put it in front of his eyes.

"It's weird! The way the two shoes tie their shoelaces seems to be a little different!"

"Huh?"

"What ......"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's sudden words, Aizawa and Hanagata, who were present, together with Chiyo, who was explaining to everyone, couldn't help but feel shocked.

"Lin Police Department, what did you just say?"

"Could it be...... Do you have any different opinions?"

……

In the face of everyone's questioning, Lin Xiuyi picked up a photo of the deceased's feet, and then pointed to the part of the shoelaces on the two shoes in the photo and said:

"Here, the two shoes tie different knots when they tie their laces, and it feels ...... Something isn't quite right!"

Under Lin Xiuyi's reminder, Aizawa and Hanagata couldn't help but come over and stare at the photo on Lin Xiu's hand and check it carefully. Soon, the two of them exclaimed in surprise:

"Ah......h

"No! this ......"

Thinking of the meaning of this suspicion that Lin Xiuyi discovered, Aizawa and Hanagata couldn't help but be a little afraid.

"That...... Excuse me......! Are there any other pictures of the deceased, I would like to see them!"

Perhaps realizing what Lin Xiuyi really found, Chiyo couldn't help but panic a little, she agreed in a trance, and then took out other photos and put them in front of Lin Xiuyi.

Looking at the situation in the apartment of the deceased in the photo, the simple furnishings, the neat and exquisite collection of books, and the clean room. Lin Xiuyi couldn't help frowning.

"What a neat person! Life seems to be very organized, but would such a person really go to the balcony with his shoes on, and if he did, the tatami mats in the room would be trampled on!"

"Police, don't you think...... Isn't this a suicide case? We found the deceased's suicide note at the scene!"

"Suicide note?"

Lin Xiuyi quickly found the copy of the suicide note in the file box, and then he picked up the photocopy and read it carefully.

"It's all my fault, I'm tired of the research work, I'm very tired now, if I can, I'd like to personally say sorry to my mentor Hideki Kalay, and all the colleagues at the Institute of Physics and Chemistry, I have lived up to everyone's expectations, and I hope you can forgive me for my cowardice......"

"Look, police department...... Any questions?"

Aizawa saw that Lin Xiuyi had read the suicide note, so he asked Lin Xiuyi a little uneasily.

"It seems like I just said goodbye to my colleagues at work, why didn't I mention my family?

"Home...... Family?"

"Well, if the person who wrote this suicide note did not know much about the deceased's family situation, so he was worried about revealing his feet, then this suicide note may be excusable!"
