290. Reporter's statement
The second is Guan Lin's motive when he is the murderer. If there was only one person killed, it would be easy to explain, but even Hong Limin was killed, it is difficult to explain his motive, and even Hong Limin was killed, what benefits can be gained?
I don't know. However, if it was a murder, there must have been a motive.
The third is about the wind on the river. He said that Tajima and his wife were killed by Guan Lin, and he would never change this view, but if Jiang Shangfeng's body was not found, it would not be possible to carry out an investigation, although the Dongyang City police said that as soon as Jiang Shangfeng's body was found, they would immediately notify Tian Chunda, but Dongyang City is so wide, if Guan Lin cleverly buried the body, it would be difficult to find the body, not to mention that the snowy season is coming soon, and once the body is buried by the thick snow in the north, I am afraid that it will not be able to be found before next spring.
In addition, there are many questions. For example, what does the 100-numbered landscape painting that Guan Lin brought back to Dongyang mean? Potassium cyanate is also a big problem.
Tian Chunda didn't know where to start for a while? Because he felt that every issue had to be re-investigated.
Just when Tian Chunda was having a big headache, he suddenly remembered the report of the weekly magazine he read on the train to Dongyang, which was titled "The Truth of the Suicide Incident", and many of the contents were fabricated.
In that report, the author said that he had met with Mr. and Mrs. Tajima the day before the incident. Although Tian Chunda thinks it is fake, it is still necessary to meet with the author for the sake of caution, and if the author really met with the Tajima couple, maybe he can find clues to solve the case.
Tian Chunda went to visit this weekly.
When he came to this weekly, Tian Chunda told the counter lady that he wanted to meet with the author who wrote about the suicide, and the counter lady with a flat face put down the newspaper and asked loudly to the wind behind her, "Who wrote the suicide?" ”
"It's Yi Cheng, he's in the café opposite." The man behind the wind also replied loudly.
"He's in the café across the street, you can go there and find him." The counter lady looked at Tian Chunda and said.
"Can you recognize it at a glance?" Tian Chunda asked.
"He wears glasses and has dark skin, which he can recognize at a glance." The lady at the counter said this, and opened the newspaper again.
Tian Chunda entered a small café opposite the weekly office. The heating in the store is open, which makes Tian Chunda feel very warm.
There was only one male guest in his thirties, who was wearing glasses, and this man was sitting in the corner, as if he was very bored and tapping his fingers on the tabletop.
Tian Chunda sat down in front of the man and asked politely, "May I ask if you are Mr. Yi Chengcheng?" The man stopped tapping his fingers on the table and looked at Tian Chunda with a puzzled look, his eyes were yellow, probably from sleepless nights or alcohol poisoning.
"You are?" The man asked rhetorically.
After Tian Chunda thought for a while, he took out a business card and handed it to the other party, and generally down-and-out scholars are like this man.
"Oooo The man glanced at the business card and made a strange noise.
"The captain of the criminal investigation detachment is looking for me Yi Cheng, I don't know what you are doing?"
Meanness and arrogance intertwined on the man's face. Tian Chunda remembered that he had seen this expression several times before.
"I want to ask you about the suicide." Tian Chunda said. "You said that you met Mr. and Mrs. Tajima the day before the incident, is that true?"
"Of course it's true. I'm also a journalist, and if I hadn't met with them, I wouldn't have written that report, otherwise I would have been suspected of setting off a cannon. ”
"You meet Hong Limin first?"
"I forcibly entered the room where she was staying, and I had to be cheeky to do this kind of thing."
"What are you talking to her about?"
"What are you talking about?" Yi Cheng said with a smile. "As soon as she opened her mouth, she told me to get out, what else can we talk about in this situation?"
"So, you guys didn't talk anymore?"
"Yes. However, just as I was about to leave, someone called her, and because the other person was talking loudly, I also heard what the other person said. ”
"What did the other party say?"
The other party said that Tajima had understood. Since it was a man's voice, I thought it must have been a call from Sekibayashi, who said that Tajima had agreed to the divorce. ”
"And then?"
After that, Hong Limin covered the microphone with his hand and didn't hear anything.
"You went to visit Tajima that night?"
"At first, I didn't plan to meet him, because I always hated artists, and besides, I had already met Hong Limin, which was enough to write a report, but that day I went to a friend's house for a drink, and I didn't come home until midnight, and on the way home, I happened to pass by the front of Tajima's house, so I ......."
"What time is that?"
"It seems to be more than twelve o'clock, no, it's not even twelve o'clock, in short, it's the middle of the night."
"Is it true that you said that Tajima, who came out to open the door, said that he was busy preparing for tomorrow's business?"
"In your opinion, is it true or not?" Yi Cheng asked rhetorically with a smile.
"I don't know." Tian Chunda said. "On what basis do you think it's true?"
"Because he said there was something that had to be done today, and he couldn't meet with me, so I'm sorry."
"Is this true?"
"It's true, I didn't have to lie to the detectives, because of the lackluster facts, I wrote the story in the same way as a script."
"Do you have to do it today?" Tian Chunda read this sentence in his mouth.
The phrase "finished" is associated with painting, and Tajima painted the day before the incident? Drawing until midnight?
"What was Tajima like at that time? Your report that he looks like a ghost is an exaggeration, and I just want to know what it really is. ”
"It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that he looks like a ghost." Yi Cheng laughed again.
"However, it is true that his eyes are bloodshot, and it is also true that he seems to be tired, and his hands are covered in paint."
"Paint?" Was Tajima really painting the day before the incident?
"I really don't understand." Tian Chunda muttered to himself repeatedly.
As a result of meeting with the Yi Cheng reporter, he got new questions, and Tian Chunda wanted to find clues to solve this incident, but what he got was new questions, but this new question may also be clues.
Tian Chunda considered investigating what Tajima had painted the day before the incident.
From the phrase "finished today", it can be seen that his painting has a time limit.
Tian Chunda remembered that Hong Limin's diary had mentioned that Tajima went to the beach to sketch, and Tajima was asked by the magazine to go to the beach to sketch, and it must be completed, probably referring to sketching, right?
