Chapter 40: The Yaksha Descends from the Sky
Kiyomi Ruri left the place of work, thinking about the great plan and the bright future that came with it, the smile on his face was a little sinister, and his heart was happy, and it didn't take twenty seconds for him to hum and rush into his house.
She yelled "I'm back", kicked off her shiny round toe shoes and continued to rush to her room, and Kiyomi Kako, who was watching the prime-time series in the living room, turned around strangely, "Why did you come back so late, did you have a study meeting with Nanahara-kun?" I've left you a meal, in the kitchen, and I'm going to heat it up myself. ”
"I've eaten it!" Kiyomi Ruri had already rushed up the stairs as she spoke, she didn't have to care about the girls at home, she ran very fiercely, very much like a little wild boar launching a pig attack.
She can't wait to see the case, and she can't wait to embark on the road of "glass police".
"Wait, come back!"
Kiyomi Ruri's "road of vigilance" has not yet stepped on the most ferocious roadblock, she didn't dare not listen to her mother's words, a sudden brake stopped her steps, and said dissatisfied: "What's the matter, Mom, I'm very busy now." ”
Kiyomi Kako didn't care if she was busy or not, anyway, she hadn't seen her busy with serious things when she was so old, and asked directly: "Dinner with Nanahara-kun?" ”
"Yes, you...... Didn't you ask me to thank him properly? I cooked for him. "Kiyomi Ruri doesn't want the family to interfere in her private affairs, so she is looking for a reason to be perfunctory at this time - she can't say it, if she says it, her mother won't let her investigate the case, won't it be all over? Now it's only one step away from becoming a "glass policeman"!
Kiyomi Kako was taken aback: "The rice you cooked?" ”
Kiyomi Ruri snorted proudly, "Yes, I cooked it, and it was super delicious, like silver jade rice." ”
"It's a rarity." Although Kako Kiyomi didn't believe that her eldest daughter could cook and cook deliciously, she was very relieved, thinking that this was because her eldest daughter listened to her words and began to learn to take care of others, and she grew up a little, and her voice softened involuntarily, "I put the bath water and go take a bath to rest and rest." ”
"Okay, Mom." Kiyomi Ruri thought about it, and immediately said, "Qiyuan just moved here, the road is not familiar, I want to take him around after school these days, you see ......"
"Go ahead, it's okay to come back later, just pay attention to safety." Kiyomi Kako didn't object, Nanahara is excellent in martial arts, gentle in personality, and quite good in personal cultivation, if she can assimilate her stupid daughter, she will immediately go back to her hometown and kill a bear back to thank him.
It's okay to have two ends, and three heads can also be discussed, and it's not troublesome anyway.
Kiyomi Ruri succeeded in his trick, and when it was time to participate in the investigation, he immediately shouted "Thank you, Mom" happily and rushed upstairs, not even bothering to take a bath, and rushed into his room, excitedly began to read the police briefing.
…………
The facts of this case are not complicated.
Nineteen days ago, at around 10:10 p.m., in the town of Bon in northern Hirano, a man named Yuto Matsuuchi was assassinated in front of his house, in front of his house, and was stabbed several times in the chest, abdomen, and neck.
When he was assassinated, he alarmed his wife Matsuuchi Xue who was waiting for him to come home from work, Matsuuchi Xue hurriedly opened the door to check, and found her husband lying at the door covered in blood.
According to her testimony, her brain was blank at the time, and she patronized to help her husband press the wound, and she didn't notice anything else, only remembering that her husband was holding her hand when he was dying, as if he wanted to say something to her, but he couldn't make a sound, and he was already confused in just a few seconds, but he raised his hand with difficulty, pointed to the sky, and his arm slipped down, and he didn't react.
At this time, the neighbors who heard the cries for help arrived one after another, and they were collectively stunned when they saw the blood on the ground.
When they reacted, some people called an ambulance and called the police, some people wanted to rescue Yuto Matsuuchi, who had died, and some people searched everywhere to find the perpetrator, but of course it was useless, and instead trampled the scene into a mess.
Four or five minutes later, the traffic patrol police arrived on bicycles, barely controlled the situation at the scene, pulled out the isolation line, put up warning signs, and then the search division and the inspection division team came to reinforce and launched an organized search in the vicinity, but nothing was found, the murderer was very cunning, obviously a deliberate crime, very careful, not even a bloody footprint was left, how to escape did not figure out.
The death of the person is not a small case, the Hirano Police Station set up a search headquarters overnight, doing its best to find the murderer, and the only clue the police have is that "the victim pointed to the sky when he was dying", and it is suspected that the murderer's name has words such as "night", "sky", "sky", "star", "cloud", "moon", "bird" and so on.
But after checking among the people that Matsuuchi Yuto knew for a week, the homonym, pen name, stage name, milk name, and nickname were all counted, and after repeated investigations among the dozen suspects found, no one was found to have a motive or suspicious place.
This road did not go through, the only clue did not work, the search headquarters simply used the most primitive elimination method, made a list of more than 70 people who had recently come into contact with Matsuuchi Yuren, looked for the motive of the crime one by one, inquired about the alibi of these people, and worked hard for nearly a week, and all the lists were eliminated, and there was still no suspect found.
At this time, the air pressure in the search headquarters was a little low, and I found that this case seemed to be very simple, but in fact it was very difficult to handle.
So, after they met and discussed repeatedly, they turned their suspicious eyes back to Matsuuchi Xue, suspecting that she had killed her husband, after all, she was the first to find out that Matsuuchi Yuto had been killed, and her body was still covered with his blood, and the clue to "pointing to the sky when dying was also provided by her, only she saw it, and one person said so, thinking about it now, it was very similar to misleading the police to search.
This woman is very suspicious!
The search headquarters began to conduct a third inquiry near Matsuuchi's house, going in and out of the town, digging deep into whether Matsuuchi Xue had a motive for killing, whether the relationship between husband and wife was not as harmonious as it seemed, and also searched Matsuuchi's house many times in disguise, trying to find the murder weapon or other clues, which caused a lot of discussion in the neighborhood, and even myths and legends were involved-there is a local shrine dedicated to Pranyyasha, and the local residents suspected that someone had cursed Matsuuchi Yuren, and Yasha fell from the sky and stabbed him to death.
It's a bit nonsensical to hear it, but you can't stand it and say that the four olds have not been broken, and the local residents believe it!
According to local legend, Pranya Yaksha is a kind of big monster that lives in the basin river, and used to fly at night, attacking local residents or passers-by, and sometimes capturing whole cattle and sheep or overturning boats, so the locals built such a shrine and worshiped it on time, just begging it not to do evil and hurt people again, and the nature is similar to paying protection money to the gangsters.
And with the development of time, I don't know when there was an urban legend of "The Curse of Prajnayaksha".
It is said that if you resent a person very much, you can write his name on a piece of paper, stuff it under the barrier stone of the shrine, and curse him directly.
If your resentment is strong enough and the price of your promise is high enough, Prajnayaksha will kill whoever you want to kill.
Now, because of the strange actions of Yuto Matsushita when he was dying (leaked during police interrogation), some people have linked the cause of his death to local legends, and there are many people who believe it, otherwise it is impossible to explain why Yuto Matsuuchi has only his last breath left, why he still points to the empty night sky, causing a lot of discussion on the streets, and some unscrupulous tabloids have mixed in and talked nonsense in the newspapers.
There were a lot of messes before and after, which completely angered Matsuuchi Yuki's maiden family and the famous family of Hirarano, thinking that this seriously affected the reputation of the Lishi family, and it was absolutely impossible for the married daughter of the Lishi family to kill her husband, let alone appear frequently in the street lace tabloids, so that the police station must give an explanation, and Wu Tengan was forced to intervene and prepare to give an explanation to the Lishi family.
This case is different from the referendum in Oda Town, the Satoshi family has had a councilor, there are many businessmen, they are rich and powerful, and they have the capital and ability to make trouble all the time, unlike Yosuke Tominaga, who doesn't even have a bitter master, and no one cares about the case dragging on.
So there must be an explanation, whether the person was killed by Matsuuchi Xue or someone else, it doesn't matter, the murderer has to be found anyway.
…………
Under the desk lamp, Kiyomi Ruri carefully flipped through the police briefing, carefully taking notes, really like an excellent detective assistant, and finally bit the pen and fell into deep thought, not moving for a long time, focused in a mess.
First of all, the police judged that there was no problem in the early stage, Matsuuchi Yuren's briefcase, wallet, watch, and wedding ring were all there, the murderer was not trying to make money, nor did he want to get anything back, and looking at the police's corpse inspection report, it was obvious that the murderer was ruthless, and he was going to the point, and after Matsuuchi Yuto fell to the ground, he also made up the knife, and the killing intent was extremely strong, and it was indeed no problem to find a suspect among his acquaintances.
But judging from the briefing, Matsuuchi Yuto has a gentle personality, a good temper, and a clean resume, and has never had a grudge against anyone, even if there are some small conflicts with others at work, it is far from the point where it is necessary to kill someone, and the police have not found a motive that makes sense......
Secondly, according to the data given in the mystery novel, 72.8% of the murders were committed by acquaintances, of which 22.21% were killed by husbands and 20.65% were killed by wives and husbands.
However, there was also no evidence to prove that the wife had killed the husband.
According to the surrounding residents, Matsuuchi has a soft, elegant and kind personality, and is very helpful, and almost all the neighbors who know her well do not believe that she will kill her husband.
Not to mention killing, I don't even believe that she can abuse small animals.
Finally, if Matsuuchi Yuki is innocent and the testimony is fine, then what does the victim mean by pointing to the sky before he died?
A person has only his last breath left in the attack, and his consciousness is blurred, and he will instinctively point out who killed him, which is no problem, but the police have repeatedly checked the acquaintances whose names have words such as "night", "sky", and "air", and have not found any suspicious person, so what does he want to say?
It can't be that a yaksha really came down from the sky, killed someone and flew away, right?
This is so weird that it should be the biggest puzzle in this case......
