After receiving the key clues provided by Mina Okino, the arrest of the prisoner doctor became very simple.

The police quickly investigated all the records of the entry and exit of ships at that port on that day and zeroed in on the only freighter bound for the United States.

Once you've set your goals, you're all set.

In this era, the flight from Japan to the United States imperialism took ten days and half a month, to say the least, so although the police were a few days late, they still had time to do so.

Through cooperation with Interpol and the cooperation of the US imperialist police, the police launched a successful maritime raid on the freighter.

As they had expected, there were indeed many illegal people on this freighter who wanted to smuggle from Japan to the United States, including the prisoner doctor.

The only regret is that the prisoner doctor committed suicide, and at the moment the freighter was stopped, he seemed to have guessed his next fate, and committed suicide by swallowing a pistol hidden in his body.

And his death undoubtedly sank many details of Keiko Hatoyama's murder into the sea.

Why on earth did he murder Keiko Hatoyama? Was it instigated? Or is it a crime of passion?

Was Keiko Hatoyama still conscious at that time? If so, how did he get Keiko Hatoyama to cooperate with him to complete the murder method?

If not, then what happened to Keiko Hatoyama's action of pulling the quilt that the criminal police saw at the door that night?

With the suicide of the doctor, all these questions are no longer answered.

“……”

In the following days, it was the funeral of Keiko Hatoyama.

There were not too many people invited to the funeral, but the identity of the Hatoyama family was placed here after all, and there were still many people who came to mourn.

Sharon also participated in the funeral, watching Bai Heqing receive everyone who came to mourn as the protagonist, and was busy until nightfall.

Suddenly, she seemed to be unable to grasp the meaning of this behavior.

For those who have just passed away, at this time, they should have a good rest, try to adjust their mood, and get out of their grief as soon as possible to meet a new future......

However, because of the existence of this kind of funeral, not only does the grieving person have little time to adjust, but they also have to pretend to be strong and put on a "I'm okay" expression to greet those mourners.

If that's just the case, what makes Sharon feel even more disgusting is that more of these people are not here to sincerely mourn at all, they are just using this name, or to show themselves, or to have "reasonable" contact with the Hatoyama family, trying to reach some aspects of cooperation and earn certain benefits......

Aware of this, a sick feeling rose in Sharon's heart, and she suddenly wanted to take a gun and surprise them all.

But no.

Because this kind of thing is not beneficial to Shirakawa Kiyoshi, to the Hatoyama family, or to the dead sister Keiko.

That's right, even if they don't really mourn you at all, even if they don't really care about you at all, even if they are at the funeral of their loved ones, they still have a shy face and desperately want to discuss things with you in the mall or politics, and try to use this opportunity to get benefits from you......

But you still have to put on a smile and friendly face.

With the death of Keiko Hatoyama, at her funeral, Sharon finally had a deep understanding of one of the most authentic aspects of this world for the first time.

And what makes her feel the most sad is Bai Heqing, who wants to stand at the front to meet these hypocritical people.

The more Shirakawa Kiyoshi behaved flawlessly in the process, the more sad Sharon's heart felt.

At such a big funeral, how many people are sincerely mourning the person lying in the coffin?

Suddenly, Sharon felt her own innocence and naivety again.

She was thinking seriously about such a question that no one else would even think about?

She is really not suitable to be the heir of the Karasuma family......

“……”

Sharon stayed at the funeral until late at night, along with Shirakawa Kiyoshi.

After the noise of the day left, he was sitting alone in the chair at this time, staring intently but expressionlessly, looking at the coffin in front of him that seemed to contain Keiko Hatoyama's life.

"Officer Shirakawa, you always feel like you're about to die......"

Sharon stood a little behind, and beside her, a maid of the Hatoyama family suddenly stepped forward and said.

"Are you ......" Sharon turned to look at the maid, her eyes puzzled.

This maid is somewhat familiar to her, she should have served in the Hatoyama family all year round, and she has also seen the other party busy at the funeral during the day.

It's just that the maid's familiar tone makes her a little puzzled, we don't seem to know each other, right?

"It's me, Mina Okino."

Seeing that she was puzzled, the "maid" reached out and gently tugged at her face, explaining:

"After all, I wasn't invited, and I wasn't too blatantly to come in, so I had to borrow the identity of this little maid...... Tsk, I'm really tired during the day, don't look at those big guys who are well-dressed, in terms of the ability to make garbage, they are not weaker than others at all...... Far from it. ”

After a few words of complaining, Mina Okino hinted at Shirakawa Kiyoshi who was sitting in front of her, and whispered to Sharon:

"That guy is not in the right state, don't you hurry up and comfort him?"

"I ......"

Sharon hesitated, of course she wanted to go up and comfort her, but she thought that it might be better for him to sit there quietly alone for a while......

"Well, anyway, you can measure it yourself."

As if to see through her thoughts, Mina Okino patted her on the shoulder.

"I think at this time, men should need a warm embrace more than let them continue to sink alone."

After saying that, Mina Okino turned around and was about to leave.

"Don't say it, I'm going back, I was a little worried that the guy wouldn't be able to bear the blow before I wanted to take a look, I knew that I wouldn't be able to come with your good friend...... Tsk, I've been called all day, and my bones are going to be scattered...... Bye. ”

With a wave of her hand, Mina Okino's figure disappeared into the night.

"Thank you......"

Whispering thanks to her back, Sharon returned her gaze to Kiyoshi Shirakawa in front of her.

【Sinking......】

Biting her lip, she lowered her steps and stepped forward, sitting next to Bai Heqing.

In this process, his gaze did not shift in the slightest, and he still looked at the coffin in front of him in a daze, as if he was in a daze.

Since the death of Keiko Hatoyama, he has been doing this regularly.

"Those people during the day are really annoying......"

Not knowing where to start, Sharon first found a topic that she thought would resonate the most with the two of them.
