Tokyo Police

v5 Chapter 19: 2 inquiries to Ai Sakurako

"Miss Shuju, I would like to ask you to describe how you found out that your friend, Ms. Erika Shiraishi, was killed?" Lin Xiuyi and Shuju Yingzi sat in the tea room of Yingzi's box and started The second conversation between the two. During the first investigation, the panic reflected by Yingzi from Juju made Lin Xiu suspicious. In addition, the first person who discovered the murder scene was originally the focus of the investigation, so of course Lin Xiuyi had to start the investigation from Juju. Sakurako begins a new round of investigation.

When Lin Xiuyi walked into Yingzi's box for the first time, what left him the deepest impression was the golf bag behind the stairs. This golf bag made Lin Xiuyi very interested.

Lin Xiuyi's box is basically the same in structure and interior furnishings as Suju Yingzi's box, while in Sueju Yingzi's box, apart from the golf bag, Lin Xiuyi didn't see any other luggage. This made Lin Xiuyi very concerned about it. As far as Lin Xiuyi knows, the luggage storage in the box is located at the back of the bathroom, and there is enough space for items the size of golf bags. But I don't know why Sakurako Sakurai did not put it in the trunk, but chose to put it behind the stairs. If it is said that the luggage cabinet is not enough to store, you can choose to haul luggage. For things like golf equipment, most people will choose to check in.

However, although Lin Xiuyi felt that the golf bag was a little annoying, he still focused his energy on the murder of Ms. Shiraishi Erika. And this time, Juju Yingzi did not evade Lin Xiuyi's question, she chose to tell the situation happily at that time.

Sakura Yingko pondered for a moment, then took a deep breath and said to Lin Xiuyi: "The last night, probably around one o'clock at night, I suddenly remembered an important thing, so I left the room to find the painting. Sauce..."

"However, you found out that Ms. Shiraishi died at one o'clock at night! Why did you choose this time to find Ms. Shiraishi?" Lin Xiuyi felt that there seemed to be something unreasonable in Sakurako's words, and immediately asked. stand up.

"This is actually such a police officer. Eri-chan and I basically work at night, so I know Eri-chan very well. She usually doesn't sleep much at night, but often can't get up in the morning. Bed. So even though it's one o'clock in the middle of the night, according to what I know about Eri-chan, she won't go to bed at this time..." Sakura Yingko replied to Lin Xiuyi.

"Then what is your job with Ms. Shiraishi..." Lin Xiuyi asked curiously.

"We...we run a night club in Ginza in partnership!"

Lin Xiu didn't understand at first, but it didn't take long for him to understand, what a night club. Isn't it just a fun place like a night bar? In this way, the person sitting in front of me is a Ginza female publicist, but looking at the other party's temperament, if she can play the piano well, she should not be that kind of low-level female publicist!

"In that case, Ms. Shiraishi also works in Ginza, right?" Lin Xiuyi vaguely used Erika Shiraishi to test his suspicions in order to clarify his guess. He believed that Sakurako could understand what he meant.

"Hey, let's run a membership bar called Hefeng Lan in Ginza together!" Sakurako said frankly, she just wants to get rid of this policeman as soon as possible, the death of Erika Shiraishi has nothing to do with her, Sakurako I don't want my escape plan to fail because of Erika's death. Therefore, as long as it is not related to the information about her murder, Sakurako chooses to tell the police without concealment.

"If that's the case, then on this train. Have you met any previous guests, or people who used to work in your club?" Lin Xiuyi asked tentatively.

"Is this! It should be... yes... no!" After thinking for a long time, Sakurako finally replied to Lin Xiuyi.

...

After Lin Xiuyi asked in detail about the interpersonal relationship between Sakurako Sakura and Erika Shiraishi, such as whether there are any enemies, how is their love life, etc., he finally asked about Sakurako Sakura who found Shiraishi last night. The situation after Rika's body.

"At that time, I screamed out of Eri-chan's box, and then fell to the ground. The first one rushed out, it seems... It seems to be a lady in Wu clothes in the same compartment..."

"Is that Mrs. Kakiya?"

"Yes...it should be her. She ran over to ask me what happened. I was so frightened that I couldn't speak. I just pointed at the corpse of Eri-chan in the box and shivered. The Mrs. Kakiya followed my finger. Looking in the direction, she was also startled at the time, but she quickly got up and ran to find someone for help."

"Then, I remember that she seemed to pat the box next door. After a while, Mr. Nantian opened the sliding door of the box and asked what happened!"

Sakurako Shukui closed her eyes and tried her best to recall the situation at that time. She remembered very clearly what happened after Mrs. Kakitani arrived.

"What happened after that?" Lin Xiuyi asked impatiently.

"After that, it seems that Mrs. Kakiya told Mr. Nantian that someone was killed. Mr. Nantian asked Mrs. Kakiya to call someone first. He said that he would notify the crew on the train by phone..."

"Later, almost as soon as Ms. Kakitani was running in the direction of the dining car, you arrived and helped me up from the ground, and then the crew on the train arrived here."

Sakurako's description is very detailed~lightnovelpub.net~ This allows Lin Xiuyi to fully make up the scene based on Sakurako's description. Lin Xiuyi used the pen given by the Shenmu Police Department to quickly record the conversation between him and Yingzi in his notebook. After Yingzi had finished speaking, Lin Xiuyi showed his record to Yingzi again, until the other party After confirming that it was correct, Lin Xiuyi closed the notebook and got up to leave.

Lin Xiuyi walked down the stairs and saw the golf bag in the corner, so he casually asked Sakurako, "Excuse me, are you going to play golf in Hokkaido?"

"Ah...yes...I occasionally play golf with clients in my spare time!" Sakurako said to Lin Xiuyi with a smile, even though her scalp was numb when asked.

Lin Xiu nodded, without saying anything, he said goodbye to Yingzi, then opened the sliding door, just after he stood at the door and put on his shoes, he suddenly seemed to have remembered something, and turned to face him. Sakurako asked:

"One last question, since you found out that Miss Shiraishi was killed, has anyone else entered Miss Shiraishi's box?"

"No, if there is, it's only you!" Sakura Sakurako was surprised, and then answered without hesitation.
