Chapter 17441744【Teacher Uzuo’s Small Lecture Hall】

 A year ago, the president of a large company died of illness. Because his will was missing for no reason, two reporters, the deceased in this case and Akira Hashizume, fanned the flames and published many reports.

In the report, they speculated on the whereabouts of the will, analyzed the possibility of each heir stealing the will and the hatred between each other. Some were based on real materials and some were fabricated. But in the end, the family members themselves believed it, and the murder occurred. , this matter is quite famous in the industry.

 Although a murder occurred, the whereabouts of the will could not be found at that time.

 One year later, this puzzle has come to an end.

“It is written in the confession that after hearing the news, the deceased and Mr. Hashizume sneaked into the law office and stole the will. The scanned copy of the will was also saved in the deceased’s computer.

“The two of them created a hot spot by themselves, made a big fuss about it, and became famous. Unexpectedly, the situation got out of control and a murder occurred.

“After that, the two of them were condemned by all parties. In panic, they had to destroy the will and made an agreement never to mention the matter.

“But recently, the deceased has gone back on his word. He has a troubled conscience and wants to announce the truth to the public.”

 What happens next is not difficult to guess even if it is not written into the document.

Jiang Xia: "The deceased and Mr. Hashizume usually had friction, and because of this incident, their relationship became increasingly tense. Their quarrel in the coffee shop at the beginning of the live broadcast yesterday probably also centered on whether the truth of that year should be announced.

"The deceased insisted on publishing the truth and felt that the two were guilty and needed to pay for the life of the deceased who was murdered in that big family. On the other hand, Mr. Hashizume was more worried that the matter would be leaked. In the end, they became murderous towards each other. .

“They have worked together for many years, have similar personalities, and know each other well. Therefore, Mr. Hashizume, who took the wrong cup first, exposed his flaw. The deceased used his plan to create the current situation.”

Officer Takagi nodded and took a document: "After our investigation, we found that the deceased's murder plan had actually been revised once. According to the results of our recovery, there was actually a paragraph behind his plan.

“—‘After Hashizume is poisoned, I will also commit suicide.’”

“However, after the deceased became aware of your murder plan, he temporarily followed your script and changed it to this.

“In addition, we received news from the deceased’s attending doctor that the deceased was seriously ill and did not have much time left.

“Maybe it’s because a man who is about to die is good at his words. He realized his sins a year ago, so he wanted to commit suicide to atone for his sins, and take you with him.”

Yoko Kinoshita was stunned and asked Jiang Xia in a low voice: "Why didn't the deceased take advantage of his plan and drink the poisoned coffee handed over by Mr. Hashizume to confirm his murder charge?

"They all died in the same way, at the same place, and at about the same time of death. There is no difference at all. But just because the deceased drank the poisoned coffee in his cup in advance, now Mr. Hashizume just attempted murder... Could it be Is it because the deceased was worried that Mr. Hashizume would waver at the last moment and dare not take action, so he took action himself to ensure that the murder occurred?" Jiang Xia shook his head: "How could there be no difference? The difference is actually very big - because Mr. Hashizume did exactly the same thing as the deceased. death plan, so the deceased knew that if he used this plan to murder Hashizume Akira again, the other party would definitely notice it and it would be difficult to succeed.

"Maybe it's because the deceased was seriously ill and didn't have the energy to think of other killing methods for a while, or maybe he regarded the unexpected murder plan as a game. In short, he did not change the battlefield, but decided to use the current endgame Looking for a way out.

“Since there was no way to kill Hashizume Akira directly, the deceased chose to use his own death to stain Hashizume Akira’s reputation, make Hashizume Akira socially dead, and even commit suicide because of it.

"But there are certainties in how you die. If the deceased drank the poisoned coffee handed by Mr. Hashizume and was poisoned to death by him, then there are two possible developments of the matter - one is that the police did not discover that it was a murder at all. According to The case was hurriedly closed by committing suicide. In this way, not only was the deceased unable to cause any harm to Mr. Hashizume, but he also gave him a hot spot, and Hashizume Akira could write him a eulogy as material.

"Another possibility is that the police discovered that this was a murder and successfully caught Hashizume Akira. In this way, Hashizume Akira did pay the price, but in Hashizume Akira's eyes, the deceased was just a person who was plotted by him. Poor guy. Although he lost his reputation, the deceased lost his life. Hashizume Akira might feel that he had won because of this. The deceased definitely didn't want to see this situation.

"In comparison, if you commit suicide like now, the situation is completely in the hands of the deceased. Hashizume Akira will be in chaos because of the weird situation of 'died according to his own plan before taking action on the target'. In this way, in When the police are looking for him, Mr. Hashizume will attract great attention because of his abnormal behavior."

　　Megure Police Department saw the detective brother opening a small lecture hall for Kinoshita Yoko, and they also came over to eavesdrop.

Hearing this, he nodded repeatedly: "That's right! This guy has been very worried since we found him. He was secretly sweating the whole time. He does look like a murderer." So this time it's not all the police. The main problem is that the case is too bizarre...

Jiang Xia nodded with dignity, and then continued: "In this way, in the eyes of the deceased, he was poisoned as his own choice, and he will not become a loser in any case. Mr. Hashizume clearly did not kill anyone, but he was treated as a The murderer was caught, and he undoubtedly took on greater pressure.

“Being caught for committing a murder by mistake has a completely different impact on a person’s mentality than being convicted despite not having done it. The former may bring a bit of relief, but the latter brings a lot of humiliation and anger.

“If the relevant public opinion becomes overwhelming in the future, perhaps Mr. Hashizume will really commit suicide to prove his innocence - the deceased was very thoughtful. He not only controlled his own death, but also wanted to control Hashizume Akira’s death after his death.”

Yoko Kinoshita touched the goosebumps on her forearms, hugged herself, and bounced slightly on the spot: "Although it sounds weird, it seems that there is a bit of weirdness in the weirdness?"

Jiang Xia hummed: "This way of death is more in line with the situation of the person who was slandered as stealing the will in the big family murder case a year ago. The deceased may feel that he is using this method to atone for his sins and seek justice. "

Toru Amuro couldn't help but glance over here.

 The idea was very clear, but he always felt something was wrong.

 …However, when detectives solve crimes, in addition to looking for clues, inferring the criminal's psychology is also an important part. This doesn't seem to be a problem.
