In the afternoon, Nakamura and I sat in a very fashionable coffee shop, this is a store that has just opened recently, the store presents a fresh environment of powder blue, and the customers sitting here are all young and young couples, which makes me and Nakamura more incompatible with the surrounding environment, especially Nakamura's decadent uncle's appearance, wearing dark gray clothes makes him more eye-catching.

The laughter of the guests in the lead room from time to time, and the two of us sat stiffly, which reminded me of the parents who were about to meet the teacher in the school office, when I was in trouble, and my father had the same expression when he waited for the teacher.

The door opened automatically with a clang, "Welcome" The waiter with the hat smiled and bowed, and a fashionably dressed young woman walked in, her makeup was exquisite, but it was obvious that her complexion was not very good, and even the best makeup could not hide the dark circles and fine lines on her face.

She saw the two of us at a glance, yes, the two of us were so outstanding, she came to us and blinked cautiously, "Excuse me, is it Officer Kawaki?" ”

"Yes, Miss Ueshima, please take a seat." I stretched out my hand to say hello, Yuna Uejima was a very good friend of Chiyoko during her lifetime, and the object of Chiyoko's several night calls was also Yuna Ueshima.

"I regret what happened to Miss Suzuki." I say.

Ueshima's eyes blinked, her body was stunned, and her pupils quickly dimmed, although she already knew the topic of our meeting today, she still couldn't control her extremely sad emotions.

"I... I really didn't expect this to happen...."Her eyes were already red, and her body gradually trembled a little.

"Chiyoko was killed by him, right, she won't be someone who will commit suicide, she loves Shota so much."

"Well, we will definitely catch the murderer as soon as possible, so I called you today to hope that you can cooperate with us and answer our questions truthfully." Nakamura said.

"Please."

"Where were you from seven to nine o'clock in the evening on the day of the fifteenth incident? Oh, don't get me wrong, we're just asking routinely. Nakamura asked.

"Hmm.... I watch a TV series at home. She hesitated for a moment.

"What TV series were you watching at the time, and do you remember what the specific content was at that time?"

"Hmm.... I.... I've been so sad lately, I can't remember it, it seems to be..."She said the name of a TV series that is very well-known at the moment, and also said the general content.

"So can anyone prove it?" Nakamura's eyes sharpened, like a hunting dog looking for sausages.

"Oh, yes, my husband was with me at the time, can that be considered proof?"

"Yes, you can." Nakamura nodded.

"Then may I ask whether Miss Chiyoko Suzuki had any conflicts with anyone during her lifetime, or whether she was harassed by others, etc., as long as there is something unusual, you can say." Nakamura then asked.

"Yes." This time on the island did not hesitate "Chiyoko often talked to me on the phone late at night some time ago, she told me more than once, she is very distressed, has been bound by the past, she said that she is tired of this life, she wants to get rid of, wants to live a new life, so she keeps asking me what she should do, although she keeps asking me, but I can feel that she already has the answer in her heart, I know that the person Chiyoko is talking about is her ex-husband Ito, because she told me that Ito had threatened her, If he didn't get back together with her, he would set her on fire. ”

As I spoke, I noticed a noticeable change in Nakamura's eyes, as if a hound had found the lost sausage.

"I was a little scared that she was going to do something terrible, so I immediately told her not to mess around and go to the police, and it happened...."

"You mean you suspect that the person who killed Chiyoko Suzuki was Ito." Nakamura stared into her eyes, this middle-aged man can only show the light that a young man can only have when he is handling a case.

"Hmm... Yes, when I knew about Chiyoko's death, the first person I thought of was him, because Ito this person I knew from contact with him before, he was a very terrible person, although he looked very gentlemanly and friendly at the beginning, but in fact he had a very bad temper, liked alcoholism, and violent tendencies, he had a completely brainless seizure, once a few of our good friends were playing at Chiyoko's house, and he actually hit Chiyoko directly in front of us because of some trivial things, and that's it in front of us, Not to mention when we're away. ”

Nakamura nodded slightly, "So, is there anything else that comes to mind?" ”

Ueshima thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Okay, I'm sorry for your trouble today, thank you for your cooperation, and if you still need to, we will trouble you again." Nakamura finally had a smile on his face, this is a very big breakthrough, because we blocked the news and did not let the outside world know a little bit about the specifics of the case, not to mention that I can be sure that what Uejima said is true.

"Excuse me, Chiyoko, was she really burned to death by the fire?" Before leaving, Ueshima looked back at us and asked in a whisper.

"It's inconvenient to disclose the specific facts of the case, but I really thank you very much for your cooperation today."

After Ueshima left, Nakamura looked back at me, and I could tell from his eyes that he was very suspicious of Ito, just like me, and when I remembered what I had heard Chiyoko say by the window, I was also very suspicious of Ito, because it really didn't seem like a coincidence.

"Let's go find Ito again tomorrow." I say.

It was eight o'clock when I returned to the apartment at night, I stood in front of the elevator door and waited, the hall was empty, only I was standing alone, the elevator door slowly opened, I walked in, pressed the number of the 26th floor, and then the elevators slowly closed, and soon there was a rush of footsteps in the hall, "Sorry, please wait." ”

I immediately pressed the door button, and a middle-aged uncle in a plaid shirt ran into the elevator, he gasped for breath, looked at me and smiled embarrassedly, the elevator rose smoothly and did not stop on any floor.

Suddenly, my uncle looked at me, "You're Officer Kawaki, right?" ”

I looked at him with some surprise, not expecting him to say something like "Yes." ”

"I heard them say that the dawn of hell lives in our apartment, and I think it should be you, the last time we met, in the elevator, I went out because I was overweight." At this point, he smiled embarrassedly.

I paused for a moment, looked at him carefully, and found that he was indeed the uncle of the day, so I smiled at him.

"I thought I could sit down, but who knew I was overweight, and it looks like I need to lose weight." He smiled.

"By the way? Is there any progress in this case? You police haven't revealed any information, after all, they live in the same apartment, and it's always unsettling that the case is unsolved. He shrugged.

"Well, not yet, but don't worry we'll catch the killer soon." I said, at this time, the elevator opened with a clang, and as soon as I saw that the 26th floor had arrived, I greeted my uncle and got off the elevator.

My people were a little tired, and there was still no substantial progress in the case, but the eyes of the police finally noticed Ito, this very suspicious person, and the next thing we had to do was to conduct a long-term investigation of him, and I went back to the house, and went to bed without turning on the lights, and fell into a deep sleep.
