"Lin Police Department, this is the passenger list you need, please take a look!" Ono Megumi said, handing over the passenger list for the second half of the Cassiopeia train to Lin Xiuyi.

After Lin Xiuyi took over the list, he glanced at it roughly, and then nodded in satisfaction. The passenger's name and carriage are marked on the list. Lin Xiu saw Nan Tian Kangzhi's name at a glance from this list. Mr. Yasuyuki Nantian, who was very enthusiastic about Sakurako, lived in the same carriage as Sakurako, the first discoverer, and Erika Shiraishi, the first discoverer at the same crime scene. However, their boxes are not adjacent to each other. The surnames of the passengers living in the two boxes in the middle are all Kakiguchi. If expected, the three passengers should be from the same family.

The carriage where Sakurako is located is the sixth carriage of the entire Cassiopeia train. If they are arranged in order from front to back, they are the box of Sakurako, the first witness, and Erika Shiraishi. The box, the two boxes reserved by the Kakigu family who were traveling with the whole family, and the box where Yasushi Nantian was.

In the seventh carriage that followed, in addition to a foreign guest, there was Shohei Kono, a bureaucrat of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs whom Lin Xiuyi met at dinner, while the other three carriages were vacant.

Lin Xiuyi's box is located in the 8th car. There are only Lin Xiuyi and another passenger named Yasuo Hashimoto in the whole car. As for the other passengers in the same car, they have already got off the train in advance at Iwaki City Station in the middle of it. And there is no intersection between their alighting time and Erika's death time, so the possibility of these passengers getting off the bus can basically be ruled out.

As for the remaining ninth carriage, it is the most luxurious box on the entire train. Only one guest named Ishibashi Heizo lived in the entire carriage. The identity of this person, Lin Xiuyi, is still unknown, but it is obvious that the other party should be very rich. After all, the price of Cassiopeia's top box is really unbearable for office workers like Lin Xiuyi. But even so, the other party is still suspected of killing Erika Shiraishi.

What was the motive for the murder? Love kill? robbery? Not quite the same. The deceased was lying on the ground almost completely naked. Although Lin Xiuyi did not confirm whether the deceased had been sexually assaulted before his death, apart from the fatal strangles on the neck, the deceased had no other obvious scars. This basically reflects that the deceased did not struggle violently when he was killed. If it was a love murder, most murderers should not treat the body of the deceased like this, and if it was a robbery, there would be no trace of violent struggle. So both of the above motives are unlikely.

Just when Lin Xiuyi decided to talk to all the suspects first, Megumi Ohno brought Shohei Kono to find Lin Xiuyi. As soon as he saw Lin Xiuyi, Kono Shohei asked Lin Xiuyi a little excitedly: "Did something happen, someone was killed, right? Is the murderer hiding in the car..."

Lin Xiu looked at Kono Shohei expressionlessly. No matter what Kono asked, Lin Xiuyi didn't say a word until Kono realized that the atmosphere between the two was not right, and then closed his mouth in embarrassment. He asked Kono unhurriedly: "Kano-kun, I would like to ask you, what have you done from eleven o'clock last night to one o'clock this morning?"

"Ah? What are you kidding?" Kono Shohei was stunned for a moment, then replied with a smile.

"I'm sorry, it's not a joke! How did you know there was a murder on the train, and how did you know the murderer was still hiding in the car, if you can't show evidence of your alibi, I'll have to list you as The key suspect." Lin Xiuyi asked Kono Shohei with a solemn expression.

"Well, after I separated from you yesterday, I went straight back to the box to sleep, and then...then..." Kono Shohei replied nervously.

"Sleep, is there any way to prove that you are sleeping in your own box. If you can't prove it, how do I know if you are lying?" Lin Xiuyi said unsmilingly.

"This... this..."

"Mr. Kono, maybe I can understand it this way, you just want to come here to learn some first-hand information because you know my police identity, as for whether you plan to use it as your own talk in the future, or do you want to do something else I don't know what it is. But please remember that there is a very serious murder on this train now, if everyone walks around like you and asks for information, it will seriously interfere with the police. search work..."

Lin Xiuyi taught Kono Shohei a lesson mercilessly. Kono's face was extremely embarrassed. Lin Xiuyi angrily turned and left ~lightnovelpub.net~ leaving Kono in place.

Lin Xiuyi's anger is not without reason. Kono is a passenger who lives in the 7th compartment. If even he knows that a murder happened on the train, how many people on this train don't know about it? If these suspects are allowed to walk around in the carriage at will and pass messages to each other, then the real murderer may be more likely to cover up his evidence. Therefore, Lin Xiuyi must curb such signs.

It seems that it is impossible to count on the staff on the Cassiopeia train to maintain the order of passengers. Now we can only complete the investigation of all relevant suspects as soon as possible.

Lin Xiuyi picked up the passenger list and browsed through it, and quickly decided on his next investigation object, that is Nantian Yasuji, who is also in the 6th carriage. Since yesterday afternoon, Lin Xiuyi has always felt that this Nantian Yasuo is a bit strange.

Lin Xiuyi wasn't jealous because Nantian Yasushi was too enthusiastic about Sakurako on the train. For example, if Nantian Yasuji's behavior happened in a bar or a nightclub, Lin Xiu would not know it at all. It felt unnatural, because it was originally such a place, but if Nantian Yasushi behaved in a teahouse like he did in a bar or nightclub, it would be a bit awkward.

Judging from Nantian Yasushi's performance yesterday, this guy basically pursues Sakurako Sakura unabashedly. Although there are many scenes of love at first sight in movies, in reality they are always rare. And the deceased Erika Shiraishi was too enthusiastic for Nantian Yasushi. Why is this? Why is Erika Shiraishi so eager to match the relationship between Yasuyuki Nantian and Sakurako Sakura. And what is Sakurako hiding?

With this suspicion, Lin Xiuyi knocked on the door of Nantian Kangzhi's box.
