Chapter 1490 Four Suspects

"Is this another strangulation mark?"

Seeing that the lower part of the tie was slightly thinner than the tie, and there were bleeding marks on the edge, Tang Ze frowned: "Isn't the tie a murder weapon?"

"Yes." Aso nodded and said, "That may have been deliberately put up by the prisoner to mislead.

If it were a tie, there would be no traces of trauma such as epidermal bleeding.

From my experience, the murder weapon may have been a belt made of relatively hard material. "

"We still need to go back for an autopsy and investigation for details." Aso said, he looked at his assistant and asked him to carry the body into the car, and then said goodbye to Karasawa.

"Let's go slowly." Nanatsuki Koshimizu and Minoru Aso greeted them at the gate, and walked in with notepads.

"You're here." Karasawa looked at Koshizui Nanatsuki and smiled: "The forensic doctors have left. Do you want me to tell you more about the condition of the body?"

"I came earlier than you, senior!" Koshimizu Nanatsuki rolled his eyes angrily and shook the notebook in his hand: "I just went to the Neon Wine Bar next door for investigation and questioning."

The so-called Neon Wine Bar is a specialty of Neon, which sells various Neon drinks from various regions, which is quite common here.

"So is there anything gained?" Tang Ze asked.

"The boss said that the other party seemed to be secretly engaging in loan sharking, so he suspected that the other party was secretly enmity with someone."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki said: "I have reported this news, and Officer Megure has sent people to investigate in this direction."

"Where is the person who found the body?" Tang Ze asked.

"She's outside, I'll take you there." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said, "The other person is Sansui Mingqiu's girlfriend Mihara Keiko, and they have been dating for three months.

Well, it was said that they were dating, but in fact the deceased was already married."

"But the two of them have been separated for a long time."

The bar owned by the deceased was located at the exit. As soon as the two people came out of the bar, they saw a long-haired woman in a red skirt standing on the street looking at the passing cars. She didn't even look at the two people and said directly:

"Let me state in advance that I am not a third party intervening. We only met after their relationship broke down."

Karasawa looked at the woman who answered the call. It was obvious that the woman was Eiko Mihara, who was standing at the door and heard their previous conversation.

Before Tang Ze could say anything, a taxi stopped on the side of the road, and a woman in a white skirt got out and walked over.

As soon as the two women met, although they hadn't spoken yet, the atmosphere suddenly became tit-for-tat.

Even though the two walked towards each other, the woman kept staring at Mihara Keiko in front of her.

"Are you the wife of the deceased, Eri Sansui?" Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more tense, Nanatsuki Koshimizu spoke first as a last resort.

"Is it true that my husband was killed?" Sansui Eri heard this and looked at Koshimi Nanatsuki to confirm.

"Yes." Koshimizu Nanatsuki bowed slightly: "I'm sorry."

"I wish I had known we would get divorced soon."

Faced with Koshimi Nanatsuki's polite comfort, Sansui Eri didn't even bother to hide her disgust: "You are still causing trouble to me after you die!"

It was obvious that there was no room left for the relationship between the two as husband and wife, and both parties even tended to become enemies.

As for the third party, Mihara Keiko, judging from the tit-for-tat look just now, it is obvious that Shanshui Eri also knows about her husband's new love.

However, this is the scene of a crime, and Karasawa and the others did not call them to fight. Karasawa asked Koshimizu Nanatsuki to write notes for Mihara Eiko, the person responsible for the crime, while he took Shanshui Eri to do the follow-up work.

After all, Shanshui Eri is still legally the wife of the deceased. If a murder occurs, Shanshui Eri must take over whether it is an autopsy or the follow-up procedures after the autopsy.

By the time these were explained, Koshimizu Nanatsuki had already finished writing the notes for Mihara Eiko and asked him to leave first.

After all, with the tit-for-tat attitude of the two women, it is better to "see the king without seeing the king".

Of course, if the subsequent investigation of the case reveals that the other party is related to the case, we will continue to find the other party. There is no need to worry if the contact information and address are clear.

After handling the affairs of the two women, Karasawa left the forensic personnel and members of the Kosouyan team to collect fingerprints in the bar, and took Nanatsuki Koshimizu to see the condition of the corpse.

The reason for this is not only that the scars on the body are a bit concerning, but also because the workload of extracting hair and fingerprints in the bar will be very heavy.

Under normal circumstances, on-site work such as hair and fingerprint extraction, and blood stain exploration are done by the forensic department. Some in-depth tests that require the use of scientific instruments are the work of the scientific search and research department.

To put it metaphorically, the forensics department is the prospector, and the science search and research department is the subsequent excavator.

This was a clear division of labor after the scientific search and research was established. Previously, the forensic department was responsible for both, but it was not professional enough in excavation, and it made them unable to concentrate on the exploration field.

The reason why Kesouyan was asked to do forensic work this time was entirely because there were too many fingerprints in the bar.

There were so many that the Forensic Science Department couldn't finish them all, so they had to ask the people from the Science Research Institute to help out.

This will be a very tedious process, but it is precisely because of their efforts in carrying out these inconspicuous but important preliminary work that they can lay a solid foundation for Tangze's reasoning.

While they were struggling with fingerprints, Karasawa also returned to Kesouyan with Koshisui Nanatsuki.

"The deceased had blood bruises on his forehead, which was dark red, and there were strangulation marks on his neck." Asano said seriously: "The cause of death was finally confirmed to be suffocation."

"When is the determined time of death?" Tang Ze asked.

"Between 1:00 and 2:00 late last night." Aso thought for a while and gave a more accurate answer.

"Does Dr. Aso have any suggestions about the characteristics of the murder weapon?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki then asked.

"Judging from the current strangulation marks, they are definitely not caused by soft fabrics such as ties."

Hearing this, Aso Minoru said: "There are even skin-breaking injuries on the surface. I guess it is most likely to be a belt made of hard material. It is more likely to be something."

"Like plastic strapping for packing?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki thought for a moment and asked.

"It should be, because due to the texture of ordinary ropes, even if it can strangle someone to death, it will not cause cutting trauma."

Aso Minoru nodded and said: "Only the hard plastic straps will be scratched during the process of exerting force."

"But what is puzzling is why the prisoner took off the original bag and then tied the tie after strangling the prisoner."

Karasawa touched his chin and said: "It's not even a ritual." "This is an incomprehensible action." Koshimizu Nanatsuki agreed: "In addition, we found tiny fibers from the neck of the deceased. I suggest Use an infrared detector to measure it and then conduct an investigation."

"I'll follow what you said." Karasawa nodded and then looked at Koshizu Nanatsuki and said, "I'll leave the search for the murder weapon to you.

The bar will bring in a lot of alcoholic beverages, and they may be packed and tied with plastic ropes.

Try to find the murder weapon if possible, and if you can't find it, confirm what kind it might be. "

"Understood." Koshizui Nanatsuki nodded, and immediately went out to investigate.

Of course, he also knew that Nanatsuki Koshizui would definitely carry out investigations in addition to the tasks assigned by him, and maybe he was holding his breath and wanted to solve the case before him.

However, Karasawa didn't care about this. Instead, he fully expected Koshimizu Nanatsuki to find clues that he had not discovered.

In that case, he would probably be able to lose a lot of brain cells.

Watching Nanatsuki Koshizui leave, Karasawa was temporarily free.

After all, he is already a commander, and it is not his turn to do some preliminary intelligence collection work. Naturally, he only needs to wait.

After waiting in Kesouyan for a while, I saw the members of Kesouyan who collected fingerprints and hair came back.

As soon as they came back, they complained, hoping that Tang Ze could send them more people to help them with the work.

Because 256 hairs were found in the bar at the scene of the crime, and 187 fingerprints were extracted, it can be said that the workload is extremely huge.

If we relied on just a few of them, we wouldn't be able to finish it all.

After hearing the complaints from the young people below, Tang Ze immediately mobilized those who were still idle to help them.

After all, this is what makes these young people, not to mention whether there is a risk of sudden death if they stay together for a few days, even the case cannot wait that long.

And with the support of a large number of manpower, this basic repetitive work can be checked fairly quickly.

Tangze also learned from Takagi about the situation of their visit and investigation, and based on the fingerprint results obtained in the afternoon, he identified two suspects.

One of them was Kenji Koga, and the other person was a gangster with a slicked back hair. When he found him, he was in the chess and card room.

The other party borrowed 5 million from Shan Shui Mingqiu. Recently, he has been asking for money from him. His fingerprints were on the scene. At the same time, he has a history of theft and fighting.

The second person was Hiroki Takase, who worked in a chemical factory. He also often went to the ELLIS bar owned by the deceased, and I heard from the owner of the neon bar next to him that he often went there during closing time.

Not only that, you can often hear the two having fierce arguments in the bar after closing the shop.

Of course, this was the information they summarized. The first thing they learned from the owner of the Neon Wine Bar was that there was a person who often quarreled with the deceased when the shop was closed.

Later, they confirmed their identities through fingerprints and printed photos, and the boss identified each other.

Of course, when asked about the reason, Takase Hiroki prevaricated and said that the two of them were good friends, and it was just a little thing where they drank too much and couldn't explain the reason, and everyone was used to it.

Of course, in addition to the fact that these two people had conflicts with the deceased for their own reasons, his wife Shanshui Mingqiu and her lover Mihara Eiko also had major suspicions.

After all, the entanglement between the three of them is not small, and love murder is also a highly frequent murder case among criminal cases.

However, following the preliminary investigation, no further evidence was found at the crime scene.

However, it was not bright in the east but bright in the west. Nanatsuki Koshimizu found an envelope with the mark of the deceased bar in the trash can near the bar.

Because it was most likely taken away from the scene, it was also handed over to the fingerprint team for fingerprint evidence collection.

"There is still too little evidence." Nanatsuki Koshizui found the clues but was not happy. Instead, he was a little worried: "The environment at the scene was too chaotic. It was impossible to distinguish which ones were clues and which ones were left by ordinary guests."

A place with a lot of traffic like a bar is full of people. Unless it is a substance from the deceased, anyone can deny that it was left behind when they went to drink.

"Four suspects."

Tang Ze muttered something, and then a smile appeared on his lips: "Since there are no clues, let's look for clues from them."

"What are you going to do?" Koshimizu Nanatsuki asked with some curiosity.

"Of course it's a lie detector." Tang Ze said with a smile: "Everyone has used the new instrument after purchasing it, but we have never used it once."

"Use a lie detector." Koshimizu Nanatsuki scratched his head: "It always feels a little weird..."

"I understand what you mean." Tangze smiled and said, "You think as a "detective" you shouldn't use these tools, right?"

"Absolutely." Koshizui Nanatsuki nodded and said, "I always feel like using this is like cheating."

"You are the prototype of an old-fashioned person." Tang Ze joked with a smile: "If you stick to the traditional methods and don't know how to adapt, you will eventually be eliminated by the world and technology."

"Hey, hey, that's too exaggerated."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki drooped and said with dead eyes: "I think technology can replace other jobs. For complex jobs like arresting prisoners, people are more reliable."

"That's not necessarily the case." Tang Ze shook his head: "If artificial intelligence cooperates with the cameras of the entire city, it's hard to say whether we need to use our brains."

"Besides, it's like the world of science fiction, senior." Koshimizu Nanatsuki interrupted after hearing Karasawa's words: "Anyway, I understand what you mean, you have to learn to keep pace with the times, right?"

"Yes, as long as you control the tools instead of relying on them, nothing you worry about will happen." Tangze nodded.

"Then let's try it quickly. I'm also curious about how the newly purchased lie detector will perform." Koshimizu Nanatsuki said with a smile.

"Why don't you try it first?" Tang Ze joked with a smile: "Anyway, it will take a while to call people over, and the machine also needs to be debugged."

"Just give it a try." Koshizui Nanatsuki heard this and agreed unceremoniously.

Only Karasawa took Nanatsuki Koshimizu to the room where the lie detector was, and while having someone install the sensor end of the instrument on her, he said: "Compared with the old style, which can only test simple items such as heartbeat and pulse, This new lie detector can detect much more.

16 items such as reading brain waves and eye movements have been added, and the three items displayed on the screen are breathing, skin charge, and blood flow pulse. "

Seeing that the instruments were installed, Karasawa looked at Nanatsuki Koshizui and smiled evilly: "If you are ready, let's get started.

Please answer my questions in the negative when I ask them. "

"Understood." Koshizui Nanatsuki nodded, and Karasawa took the lead in asking the first death question.
