Chapter 48: Changes in the Moonshadow Island case
"Isn't it?" Concubine Mile asked rhetorically, and then said out loud: "Asai Narumi's original name should be Aso Minoru, he is the daughter of Aso Keiji who died twelve years ago. I've read the relevant documents of the case, and the three people who died are all related to the death of Keiji Aso back then, isn't it normal for someone to kill them in order to avenge Keiji Aso? What's more, she also concealed her identity, isn't the suspicion even greater? ”
Hearing this, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto did not refute and said directly: "What about the evidence? ”
"Nope!" Holding up his glasses, Fei Mile said, "If there is evidence, I won't ask Mr. Yamamoto to come out today." The reason why I asked Mr. Yamamoto to ask you out was precisely to see if you could find out the evidence. And when I tell Mr. Yamamoto about Asai Narumi's identity, I also want to see if you can think of something. ”
Looking at Concubine Miao, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru shook his head and said, "Lawyer Concubine, in fact, I already knew about the true identity of Dr. Chengshi. From my observations, the murderer is not Dr. Chengshi at all, and neither is the other suspect, Mr. Shimizu. Kazuaki Hirata was able to explain the past by killing people for drug trafficking, and there is evidence that he was still caught red-handed by me on the same day. ”
Hearing this, Fei Mi frowned slightly and said, "But Mr. Hirata has always claimed that he didn't kill anyone, and I don't think he looks like he's lying, so there should still be some problems in this." ”
"Excuse me! Your coffee, sir! The waiter apologized and put the coffee in front of Yoshitsuru Yamamoto.
"Thank you!" After thanking the waiter, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto said, "Lawyer Concubine, I think Kazuaki Hirata should be lying, after all, the crime of drug trafficking is not as serious as the crime of serial homicide." He confessed to drug trafficking, and after paying the fine, he could come out in a few years, but if he confessed to being the murderer of serial homicides, it would not be a matter of a few years. ”
After taking a deep look at Yamamoto Yoshitsuru, Concubine Mile groaned and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, are you willing to go with me to find evidence?" ”
Without answering Fei Miao's question immediately, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru asked rhetorically, "Lawyer Fei, do you believe Hirata Kazuaki's words so much?" ”
Nodding, Fei Mi said seriously: "I trust my instincts, and my instincts have not been missed again." ”
After pondering for a while, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru asked aloud: "Where do you want me and you to look for evidence?" I think Kazuaki Hirata's case must have already been heard, right? ”
Fei Mi nodded and said, "Yes, time is running out, and the next court session will be in three days." If no new evidence is found by then, the case will be lost. ”
Hearing this, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru secretly screamed in his heart that it was a pity, the title of the undefeated queen of the other party seemed to be about to be removed, who asked her not to look for anyone, but to ask for her own help, this is completely 'looking for death'!
Although he thought like that in his heart, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru still smiled on the surface and said, "Lawyer Fei, you said that as long as I can do it, I will definitely help." ”
Fei Mi shook her head and said, "Actually, I haven't thought about what to do yet, I thought that after you learned about Asai Chengshi's identity, you should have some different ideas." ”
"Uh.." Yamamoto Yoshitsuru was stunned for a moment, and then took a sip of coffee speechlessly, he didn't think of a way, he actually came to him, and he didn't know what this barrister thought. "Lawyer Fei, I think maybe your intuition this time is out of order, after all, I was there at the time, and I don't think the reasoning at that time was wrong. I believe that the reason why Kazuaki Hirata did not plead guilty was to reduce the punishment. ”
Frowning slightly, Fei Mi muttered and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, I want to ask, do you know where Asai Narumi is now?" I checked, and half a month after the incident, she left Moonshadow Island and came to Tokyo. But after my investigation, she didn't have very good friends at all, and I couldn't know where she was for the time being. ”
Looking at Concubine Miao, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru did not answer immediately, but asked rhetorically: "Lawyer Concubine, I want to ask, why are you asking me this question?" I've never met her before, and if she comes to Tokyo, she won't necessarily contact me. ”
Fei Mile smiled and explained, "Since you said that you have known Asai Narumi for a long time, I suspect that you may be keeping an eye on her and knowing where she is now." ”
"Lawyer Concubine is really careful!" Praised the concubine, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru knew that this problem could not be concealed, otherwise there would be endless troubles, so he immediately said: "You guessed it by the concubine lawyer, I know where Dr. Chengshi is now." After all, she contacted me when she left Moonshadow Island. I would like to ask, what is Lawyer Fei going to do when he finds Dr. Chengshi? ”
"Oh, really?" Looking at Yamamoto Yoshitsuru with some surprise, the corners of Fei Mi's mouth curled slightly, and said with a smile: "I went to Dr. Chengshi to ask her something about this case, and by the way, ask her what she thinks about the case." ”
Yamamoto Yoshitsuru frowned and said: "This is not good, after all, his father's death is related to this case, if I ask her, I am afraid that she will be unhappy." ”
Fei Mi looked at him and said seriously: "Human life is at stake, and I hope that Yamamoto Yoshitsuru can help, no matter what, everything is for the case, isn't it?" ”
After looking at Concubine Miles quietly for a while, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru said aloud: "I'll think about it, and I'll reply to Lawyer Concubine tomorrow." After all, I still need to ask Dr. Chengshi about this matter, and I don't want to take the concubine lawyer to the door rashly to ask for the guilt. ”
Thinking with a frown, after a moment, Fei Mi raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay, I'm waiting for your good news, Mr. Yamamoto." ”
"I'll let Lawyer Concubine know as soon as possible." Yoshizuru Yamamoto sipped his coffee and chatted with Fei Mile for a while, but Fei Mile said that there was something wrong and paid first and left the coffee shop.
After the concubine left, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru did not leave immediately, but thought about how to solve this troublesome matter in his seat. If Concubine Mile and Asai Chengmi meet tomorrow, with Concubine Miri's shrewdness, as long as Chengshi shows a little flaw, she will be noticed. What's bad is that Cheng Shi herself may not want to hide it, maybe as soon as Concubine Li asks, she may directly admit that she is the murderer, and that is the real trouble.
After thinking about it for a while, he thought of a solution that was not a solution, so Yoshitsuru Yamamoto checked out and left the coffee shop and drove towards Chengshi Clinic.
After arriving at the clinic, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto said hello to the nurse Himeno Bingren, and seeing that there were many patients waiting, he did not bother Asai Narumi, but found a place to sit down, picked up a newspaper and read it.
Time passed, and when the newspaper in her hand had been replaced with five copies, the young nurse Sugida Hayashiko walked up to Yoshitsuru Yamamoto and said, "Mr. Yamamoto, there are no patients for the time being, if you have any problems, you can take advantage of the time now to find Dr. Narumi." ”
"Okay, thank you!" After thanking Sugida Hayashiko, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto put the newspaper back in his hand and walked into the place where Narumi Asai worked.
Seeing Yoshizuru Yamamoto come in, Midori Hamano, who was busy, packed up his things and walked outside. "Good afternoon, Mr. Yamamoto!"
"Good afternoon, Miss Hamano!" After saying hello to Midori Hamano, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto sat opposite Narumi Asai and said with a smile, "Narumi, how about I go to your place for a meal tonight?" ”
"Go to me?" Thinking of what happened after this guy went to eat at his place a few days ago, Asai Narumi blushed a little and said, "It's okay to go, but you can't be like last time." ”
"Don't worry, didn't nothing happen last time?" Yamamoto Yoshitsuru responded with a smile, in fact, he was depressed to death, the last time the two kissed and kissed, they were emotional, and at that time they had already picked up Chengshi, where did he think that she would come that day, a basin of cold water spilled down, making him depressed to death.
Although Yoshitsuru Yamamoto had agreed, Asai Narumi still said with some unease: "You must be the talker." ”
"Definitely!" Yamamoto Yoshitsuru nodded solemnly, this time he really didn't have this kind of thought, the only thing he thought about was how to convince her at night, so that she could face it calmly after meeting with Concubine Mile tomorrow.
Seeing that he agreed again, Asai Narumi nodded and said, "Well, then you go buy some vegetables, and I'll cook them for you when I go back in the evening." ”
“OK! I'm going to buy it now, it's not far from here anyway. Yoshitsuru Yamamoto nodded in agreement and left the clinic.
In addition to the clinic, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto drove his car to the parking lot of Asai Nari's apartment before going to the supermarket to buy ingredients. By the time the things were bought, the sun was already slowly setting.
First, he took his things to Asai Narumi's place, and then Yamamoto Yoshitsuru went to the clinic and waited for Asai to get off work.
When the clock pointed to six o'clock, the three female nurses changed their clothes and left, while Yoshitsuru Yamamoto and Narumi Asai turned off the power and the like, then locked the door and walked towards the place where they lived.
Back at his accommodation, Asai Narumi first went to take a shower to clean up the smell of medicine left in the clinic before going to cook. After a long night, Yoshitsuru Yamamoto, who was not in a hurry to talk about things, turned on the TV and watched Yoko Okino's show.
"Didi..."
Reaching out to pick up the phone and looking at the displayed number, Yamamoto Yoshitsuru pressed the answer button, and before he could speak, Mao Lilan's anxious voice came from the other side of the phone: "Hey, it's Yamamoto!" Conan he is gone, didn't he go to the department store with Motota and them today, and he hasn't come back yet, I asked the families of Motota, Mitsuhiko and Ayumi, and they all said that they haven't gone back yet. I don't think something happened to them, right? ”
