I, Tomoya Aki, am not a bootlicker

Everything in the room is enough to explain everything.

"Call the police. Don't talk about Shishido Riichi for now. Let the police catch the murderer first."

As he spoke, Tomoya Aki pointed out the window.

Looking in the direction he pointed, the words "Takase Real Estate" were particularly clear.

That's the direction Shishido Riichi's camera was pointing.

Takase Real Estate is a familiar name as it is a real estate agency that manages vacant houses.

After seeing the place, Kube Rokuro immediately took out his cell phone to look for Mori Tadashi.

At the same time, Tomoya Aki's cell phone rang, and the caller was Nakadō Kei.

"An Yi, where are you now?!"

Chapter 361: A Dead Duck's Mouth (1/5)

Musashino Police Station confirmed the time of death again with UDI.

Before the official appraisal report was re-made, the director was not aware that there had been a new breakthrough, so he went to ask Misumi Mikoto what was going on.

Then, Mori Tadashi's question was repeated in the research institute.

Mikoto Misumi explained that the real cause of death was formalin. Although there is no official identification report yet, the time of death should be pushed back to one month ago.

"The new judicial appraisal hasn't come out yet, how can this be possible..."

The chief looked helpless, but at Misaki Mikoto's insistence, he told the police that the time of death was before the fire according to her statement.

When he was about to leave, Zhongtang Xi specifically asked, "Director, who told the police?"

"It's Kube-kun. I was quite confused at first. Why did Kube-kun tell the police about this? Doctor Misumi, next time something like this happens, you should tell me in advance!"

When the chief first asked the police where they heard that the deceased's time of death was changed to before the fire, he was a little surprised when he heard that it was Kube Rokuro who said that.

Now after listening to Misaki Mikoto's explanation, he thought that this was Misaki Mikoto's instruction.

Misumi Mikoto gave a wry smile.

She had already figured out that it was Tomoya Aki and Rokuro Kube who called the police first.

Such important clues can allow the police to shift the search direction to the right direction.

There is nothing wrong with their actions, but what they didn't expect was that the police would contact us again to confirm.

"You already know who the murderer is?!"

Nakadō Kei looked at Misumi Mikoto excitedly.

The actions of Tomoya Aki and Rokuro Kube made him think that they already knew who the murderer was.

"Doctor Zhongtang, calm down. We still have no idea who the murderer is!"

"But you have already found the key clue, right? Why didn't you tell me?"

"..."

Mikoto Misumi was speechless. They did find a clue.

But you can't say that you can be completely sure who the murderer is.

New clues only provide new directions, Misaki Mikoto would like to say so.

But when she thought about what Tomoya Aki and Rokuro Kube were doing now, Misaki Mikoto felt a little guilty.

This time, she believed that with the clues from Aki Tomoya and others, the police should be able to find the suspect quickly.

As this thought grew in her mind, Misaki Mikoto looked at Nakadō Kei and sighed.

"What's the use of telling you? We all know what Doctor Zhongtang will do. You are a forensic scientist, so please calm down!"

However, the Zhongtang faction is simply unable to remain calm now.

How could he remain calm when he thought that the murderer of his lover was right before his eyes?

He then left the laboratory, leaving Misaki Mikoto and Tokai Lin Yuko who were still conducting the tests.

After that, Nakadō Kei called Aki Tomoya.

This guy must know the key clue.

Recalling that a few hours ago, Tomoya Aki took Hisabe Rokuro away, he felt a little regretful that he should have thought of this earlier.

That kid, Tomoya Aki, will definitely not do anything unnecessary.

……

In Shishido Riichi's rental house, Aki Tomoya heard Nakadome Kei's voice that was unable to conceal his excitement, and felt a little sad in his heart.

He knew why Zhongtang called him.

It’s most likely because of the case.

"Doctor Zhongtang, I have something to do here. I may have to hang up now. Sorry."

There was a hint of apology in Tomoya Aki's words.

He glanced at the Takase Real Estate agency in the distance.

Behind him was Shishido Riichi, who was pinned to the ground by Takagi and unable to move, and Hisabe Rokuro, who was in contact with Mori Tadashi again.

"Wait, where are you now? Who is the murderer? Please, tell me!"

This was the first time that Tomoya Aki heard such a tone of request from the Nakadō family.

He hesitated slightly.

But after thinking about it carefully, he replied helplessly: "I will regret it if I let you catch the murderer."

Aki Tomoya could imagine the entire process of what Nakadashi would do if he caught the murderer before the police.

He will give them a taste of their own medicine.

Then he hung up the phone without hesitation.

"Kyube-kun, how is the situation over there?"

"Police officer Maori and his men are on their way."

The only thing left now is that the alphabet isn't complete yet.

Collect all twenty-six ways of killing in the alphabet, which means there are twenty-six victims.

Thinking of this, Aki Tomoya looked at Shishido Riichi again.

"Big reporter, are you still trying to put up a fight? Your accomplice is about to be caught. Confess now and hand over everything. It will benefit everyone!"

"What accomplice? I have no idea what you are talking about. It's obviously you who broke into a private house and wrongly accused a good person!"

Shishido Riichi is still stubborn even though he is dead.

He didn't want to admit it, nor did he dare to admit it.

If everything that happened in the past few years were to be revealed, and he knew about it but didn't report it, he would be labeled an accomplice and there would be no way he could escape.

Now he could only pretend that he knew nothing and continue to be stubborn.

"This is not good. You are an adult. You must take responsibility for your own actions. You don't want me to call Doctor Zhongtang over. He must be very interested in what you have in your hand."

"What on earth do you want? I don't have anything here. I don't know what you're talking about!"

Now that the murderer is about to be caught, Shishido Riichi doesn't want to be buried with that man.

Even if there is evidence that can prove that the murderer is a serial killer, those things will still implicate him.

He just wanted to gain fame and fortune from this serial murder case that could become an urban legend, and he didn't want to take any responsibility.

"An Yi, although I don't know the whole story, this guy is quite stubborn. Do you need me to teach him a lesson?"

Takagi increased the strength in his hands, and at the same time, Shishido Riichi's expression became somewhat painful.

"Just save your energy and wait and see what happens after the police catch the person. There's no need to rush now."

Aki Tomoya rolled his eyes at Takagi and looked around the house.

"Kube-kun, have you found out where this reporter's lair is?"

“That hasn’t been asked yet.”

"…There's no rush. Please help me look around this room for anything useful. We can then pack them up and mail them to Officer Maori."

There are a lot of things in this room, and it will take time to clean them up.

However, Tomoya Aki still wanted to go to Shishido Riichi's real home to look for it.

While they were searching Shishido Riichi's rental house, Mori Tadashi also rushed to the Takase Real Estate with his men.

Chapter 362 Sending You On Your Way (2/5)

The owner of Takase Real Estate is called Takase Fumito.

The empty house where Orange Celery was found was managed and rented out by him.

When the police found him, there was a woman in a deep coma in his house. It was confirmed that she was Da Qi Hui, the woman who had disappeared two days ago.

Mori Tadashi led his men to search Takase Fumito's home and seized many women's belongings.

It is initially speculated that these are the remains of the victim.

Fumito Takase did not expect to be exposed at this time, and the relics of the victims collected over the years were not destroyed in time.

At the same time, the woman who was first knocked unconscious by him with electric shock and then put into a deep coma with drugs was the one he intended to dismember alive.

A, asunder, his final piece of the puzzle.

Another surprising thing is that this person is the only survivor of the last fire.

This is why, even though the police found out that the empty house was managed by Fumito Takase, they did not consider him a suspect.

Because at the beginning, UDI misjudged the time of death, saying that the body should have been placed there after the fire.

If that's the case, Takase Fumito would have a perfect alibi.

"Did that man rescue such a thing?"

When he received a call from Misumi Mikoto in the evening, Aki Tomoya felt a little complicated because Takase Fumito was the only survivor of the last fire.

This is what Saburo Machida risked his life to save.

From a certain perspective, if Saburo Machida had not rescued Fumito Takase, the case would have remained an unsolved case forever.

The murderer died in an accident, and the truth will be hidden forever in the fire.

"Takase Fumito has betrayed Shishido Riichi, and it looks like it's going to become a dog-eat-dog situation."

Tomoya Aki said to Takagi and Hisabe Rokuro in the room.

However, this sentence was specifically told to Shishido Riichi.

He was curled up on the tatami, but now he raised his head and retorted in disbelief: "Impossible, I'm just a reporter, I didn't do anything. What right does that person have to say that I'm an accomplice?! Are you trying to scare me?!"

"You didn't do anything. What's the difference between knowing and not reporting and being an accomplice? We found the remains of previous victims in that man's home, as well as his carefully arranged alphabet. Most importantly, I don't know if you recognize the last piece of the alphabet, but Takase Fumito hasn't had time to complete the last step."

Aki Tomoya looked at Shishido Riichi with amusement.

This person still thinks he can stay out of it. What a wishful thinking.

"Come to think of it, you should thank us. He thought you had betrayed him, so he couldn't wait to give you up. Do you think that without us, he wouldn't have to be buried with Takase Fumito?"

Aki Tomoya looked at Shishido Riichi jokingly.

God knows what these two people agreed on before this.

On the eve of completing the last piece of the alphabet puzzle, the police came to his house, and the first person Takase Fumito thought of was Shishido Riichi.

The shrewd fox's plan completely failed.
