Chapter 141 A Critical New Target

Chapter 141 A Critical New Target (33)

Yoko Okino originally thought that after their mother Ryoko Akikawa passed away, her younger brother would live a stable life on his own.

Unexpectedly, Akikawa Sosuke actually joined the artist company he was in directly.

I also deliberately chose a job that was on the same site as mine.

Yoko Okino originally thought that her younger brother wanted to come and rely on her, whom she had not seen for a long time, after losing their mother.

As a result, after spending some time with Akikawa Sosuke.

However, Okino Yoko discovered that Akikawa Sosuke's attitude towards her was completely different from what she had expected.

After several private meetings, Yoko Okino discovered that her brother was still calling her "Ms. Yoko" just like everyone else.

Although Yoko Okino knew that the two of them had to maintain a senior-junior relationship in the company on the surface.

But such a name seems too distant in private.

Even though I have restored my previous nickname for my brother, my brother's way of addressing me and his attitude towards me have not changed much.

This caused Yoko Okino to panic.

And he began to doubt himself, wondering if he had misunderstood his brother's intentions.

And just now.

After learning that her brother was "once again" identified as the murderer in a car accident, Yoko Okino inevitably became afraid for her brother's safety again.

However, his brother immediately grabbed his hand.

His unintentional expression of true feelings made Yoko Okino dispel the worries she had for so long.

Sure enough, my younger brother is the same as me, he just doesn’t want him to worry too much about me.

Okino Yoko doesn’t want Akikawa Kyusuke to be famous.

Because she knew that as long as her brother was exposed to the public, danger would come again sooner or later.

But Yoko Okino didn't expect that her premonition would come true so quickly.

Okino Yoko quickly wiped away her tears, and with her other hand, she grasped Akikawa Sosuke's hand in her own, lowered her head, and said in a pleading tone:
"Xiaokong, can you promise me that you won't be an artist anymore?"

Yoko Okino prayed in her heart for a positive answer from her brother.

What happened was that I heard my brother suddenly say something without a beginning or an end:

"Sister Yoko, I want to ask, did you have a boyfriend last year?"

"what?"

Yoko Okino suddenly raised her head, widened her eyes, and stared in amazement at her brother's handsome face that was somewhat similar to her mother's.

After a while, a faint rose color suddenly appeared on her fair cheeks.

"How is that possible?! Xiaokong, why are you asking this all of a sudden?!"

Okino Yoko suddenly raised her voice and asked Akikawa Sousuke in shock.
-
After hearing Okino Yoko begging him not to continue being an artist, Akikawa Sosuke suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He still clearly remembers the scene when he was questioned by criminal police and detectives during the car accident case last year.

The questions the other party asked me at that time were all about me and my mother.

There was no mention of issues concerning Yoko Okino or his sister at all.

As the number one suspect at the time, there was no way the police would not investigate my interpersonal relationships.

"That is to say, even though the Metropolitan Police Department knew that Okino Yoko was my sister, they still did not suspect Okino Yoko."

Then there is only one possibility for this situation.

That is, the Metropolitan Police Department judged that Yoko Okino was neither a suspect in the crime nor aware of the situation between herself and Ryoko Akikawa.

In other words, on the "surface" Yoko Okino had no contact with the original owner and her mother for a long time.

But Akikawa Sosuke looked at Okino Yoko's performance at the moment. She clearly knew that it would be dangerous for her to continue to be an artist, so she begged him not to continue to be an artist.

'Come to think of it, I heard some news about Okino Yoko on TV the day I was discharged from the hospital after the car accident.'

Since Akikawa Sosuke didn't know that Okino Yoko was his sister at the time, he didn't pay much attention to it.

But when he suddenly recalled it at this moment, Akikawa Sosuke suddenly became alert.

then,

Between the news stories of "Kogoro Mori won 1 million yen by betting on horses" and "High school detective Masumi Sera solved a serial murder case", there was another piece of news.

That is-

"National goddess Okino Yoko has been absent from filming for four consecutive days. According to insiders, she may have a boyfriend."

Akikawa Sosuke clearly remembered that he saw this news two days after he had been interrogated by the detectives.

That's why Akikawa Sosuke went to ask Okino Yoko whether she had a boyfriend.

Akikawa Sosuke looked at Yoko Okino's face filled with shock and embarrassment, and concluded that Yoko Okino was not lying.

'That is to say, Yoko Okino has been absent from the filming since the car accident.'

"Then, this contradicts the Metropolitan Police Department's conclusion that Okino Yoko had not had any contact with the original owner or her mother for a long time."

"Besides, just now Okino Yoko also advised me not to continue to be an entertainer."

'Obviously, she knew something, but she deliberately concealed it.'

Akikawa Sosuke determined that the original owner had the intention to commit suicide through three insurance policies that were taken by himself as the insured person in the original owner's home.

At the same time, through the inspection report of the car accident on the day that Toda Kyouji showed him today, Akikawa Sorasuke ruled out the possibility that the original owner killed his mother and then committed suicide.

In this case, the original owner's mother, Akikawa Ryoko, could only have died at the hands of a third party.

Akikawa Sosuke was indeed not interested in the original owner or the experiences of his mother.

But this is based on the premise that Akikawa Sosuke believes that the original owner is the murderer of Akikawa Ryoko.

Because only Akikawa Sosuke himself knew that the original owner should have died on August 8 last year.

But because of his time travel, the overdose of triazolam lost its effect.

In other words, according to the clues originally obtained by Akikawa Sosuke, the condition that the original owner killed his mother and then committed suicide was true.

But after Akikawa Sosuke confirmed that there was someone else who caused the death of Akikawa Ryoko, the situation became completely different.

Just as Toda Kyoushi said.

After investigating the interpersonal relationships of the original owner and her mother, the Metropolitan Police Department did not find any motive for anyone to attack Akikawa Ryoko.

Although according to the medical records of the original owner's mother, it was shown that the original owner's mother suffered from schizophrenia.

But that medical record was taken a very, very long time ago.

Akikawa Sosuke did not find any other medical records of Akikawa Ryoko in the original owner's home.

So it is natural to assume that the original owner's mother did not suffer from the disease often.

thus,
It was hard for Akikawa Sosuke to imagine how someone could harbor such great hatred towards a mother like this.

Therefore, Akikawa Sosuke believes that the most likely possibility is that there is a conspiracy behind the death of the original owner's mother that he is not aware of.

As long as the murderer who killed the original owner's mother is still alive in this world, his life will be threatened at any time.

In this case, it becomes crucial to find out what exactly happened to the original owner and his mother.

This is not to prove one's innocence, nor to punish the real murderer.

It’s just that Akikawa Sosuke simply doesn’t like the fact that there are people who harbor ill will towards him and are secretly spying on him.
