Chapter 55: The Sun in the White Night
Close the door to the room.
Nobuyo's face fell, and he almost didn't cry, "That dead old woman is completely ruined, why is she still in this world, why doesn't she die?" ”
The poor family often has trouble and disputes over trivial matters, and this thief's family is no exception.
Nobuyo and Mrs. Hatsueda are like this, they quarrel a lot on weekdays, although so, but as a housewife, Nobuyo takes good care of Mrs. Hatsueda in her daily life, even if the two are not related by blood, but they have never treated her badly.
Chen Jun knew that she was just saying something angry for the sake of him.
"Ito, what the hell are you doing?"
Aki grabbed his hand tightly, and his eyes were about to redden, as if he was about to cry in the next second.
It's all for his sake, Chen Jun can't help but be ashamed, but how can he tell the truth?
"Tell us, please."
Aki suddenly hugged him, his soft body with a hot temperature, tears dripping on his face.
Chen Jun took a deep breath, "I'll tell you the truth, but give me some time, okay?" Trust me, I'm really going to be fine. ”
Wiping the tears from the corners of her eyes, he bowed deeply to the three of them, and then ran out of the yard to see Junzo Sasagaki smoking next to the small loquat tree.
"I knew the officer wasn't leaving." He chuckled.
"Do you have anything to tell me, I'm curious?" Sasagaki took two puffs of his cigarette.
"The officer is suspicious of me?"
"I don't know."
"I don't make judgments lightly until the case is closed, no matter who it is. Just as I'm not sure if I'm the murderer or not, everything is still to be verified, but I'm sure there's something going on! ”
"The officers are different."
Junzo Sasagaki smiled, "It's an old problem, I want to be worthy of my conscience." ”
Seeing that he was leaving, he said again: "The police officer is going to Xue Sui's side?" ”
Junzo Sasagaki looked at his watch, and then at the sky, "It's just five o'clock, and for some time, it's quite close to Nishimoto's house, so it's good to take a walk." ”
"Can you grant me a request?"
"What?"
"Please don't be aggressive with me, she's still a twelve-year-old girl!"
Sasagaki smiled and left silently.
Chen Jun watched him leave and didn't follow, but the pressure on him in Xue Sui was even greater.
The two-minute journey was very short, and Sasagaki knocked on the door and entered Nishimoto's house, and found his colleague Koga discussing the plot of "Gone with the Wind" with Nishimoto Yukiho with relish, and nodded his head again and again, as if he was appreciative.
That's how I became a police officer..... Sasagaki let out a low snort and called Koga out the door.
"That's how you investigated?"
"What case? Ms. Nishimoto hasn't come back yet. ”
"What about her?"
"Who? You refer to this girl. ”
"Yes."
"What are you kidding, people are very good, I really hope that I can give birth to such a daughter in the future, that kind of life is perfect."
Forget it, playing the piano like a cow, Sasagaki has no desire to continue the conversation, although he doesn't know what the truth is in the depths of the case and who the criminal is, but he thinks that this pair of boys and girls must be the key to solving the case.
Especially the strange behavior of that precocious Ito, calm as deep water, now let's see how Yukiho Nishimoto reacts.
"I won't say much nonsense, I've gained a lot from that Ito." Sasagaki went straight in, holding a thin notebook in his hand, "I asked him a lot of questions, and now I want to see how you answer." ”
Sasagaki stared at her closely, she only nodded slightly, and there was no more strange appearance on the road than before.
"What do you have to do with Ito!"
Xue Sui hesitated at this time, and Sasagaki noticed this, and asked again in a louder voice.
"It should be...... Lover! Xue Sui breathed a sigh of relief all of a sudden, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, as if she was much more relaxed.
"Lovers?"
"What's wrong, how did he answer?"
"His answer was disappointing, he said you were just a friend in general."
Xue Sui smiled and said softly and proudly: "You lied to me!" ”
Sasagaki noticed her expression, "Yes, I'm lying to you, but why are you so sure?" What happened between the two of you? ”
Xue Sui realized that she had been fooled, but she was still calm, "Is the police officer uncle also interested in the matter between lovers?" If so, you might as well pay attention to the inside of the school, and you will naturally know. ”
Eating a soft nail, and the fact that they are so sure of each other's emotions, makes Sasagaki very angry: "You know what emotions are? Open-mouthed lovers, closed-mouthed lovers, a pair of little children, emotions are a kind of blasphemy in your mouth. ”
Xue Sui was silent, and just suffered quietly.
When Koga heard the voice, he immediately ran out to ease up, and the atmosphere calmed down a little, and Sasagaki continued to ask, "Have you ever been to his house?" ”
"I've been."
"When?"
"Friday! I forgot the specific number. ”
"How long have you been there?"
Xue Sui didn't hesitate at all, "Play for an hour or two, and then he sent me back." ”
"Where were you at the time of the crime?"
"Didn't my mom say that I was in the library at the time."
With a slight hint of impatience just right, Sasagaki continued to repeat the question, and it was difficult to see any clues after repeated comparisons
"What do you think of Ito as a person?"
"He is the sun in my white night!"
Sasakaki was expressionless, "Why do you say that?" ”
"It's easy to be with him, you can do everything without caring about it."
"What do you mean by White Night?" Sasagaki only has logical thinking, and it is difficult to understand such adjectives.
Xue Sui said: "When the sun appears at night, it is naturally a white night. ”
"Okay, last question, do you know where Ito was on the day of the crime?"
"I don't know."
"Then do you think Ito will be the murderer!"
Sasagaki stared at Xue Sui's expression, refusing to let go of any subtleties, but when he saw her sincere face, he spit out two words: "No!" ”
Sasagaki was disappointed.
Compared to Ito's flaws, Yukiho's performance is flawless, there is no trace of problems, even the impatience shown in the question, and the slight anger when suspected are all normal reactions that a girl should have, which is reasonable.
It was getting late, and Sasagaki couldn't think of a clue, so he told his unreliable colleague Koga of his doubts.
Koga complained: "Boss, the case is almost closed at the top, does it make sense to investigate further?" ”
"Xue Sui is a girl worthy of sympathy, I think we are like violent victims, he is still a girl, have you ever thought about what kind of trauma will occur if your daughter is questioned one day?"
"Adolescence is always good, and there are all kinds of behaviors that can be explained by the cause."
Sasagaki was touched when he heard this, and Xue Sui's shadow in his heart gradually faded, maybe he was too sensitive.
However, that extraordinary Ito is definitely worth investigating!
