Gao Yuan wondered, "According to your statement, even if Ms. Komura is released home, she should be under the surveillance of your police. How could this happen?"
"That's not clear. Our police did keep surveillance outside the apartment, but found nothing unusual."
Miwako Sato said, "And what's strange is that the death of the deceased was also very special."
"What do you mean?"
Gao Yuan asked.
Seeing that Gao Yuan wanted to ask further, Sato Miwako asked: "Speaking of which, why is Mr. Akechi here?"
"This is not the case of Masako Komura. There has been no progress at all for so long, so I wanted to come and see if I can find anything."
Gao Yuan said casually.
"is that so?"
Miwako Sato said strangely, "Let me ask you, does Mr. Akechi have any thoughts on the disappearance of Masao Komura?"
Faced with such a question, Gao Yuan was stunned, thought for a moment and asked: "Did you find anything about the blood stains at the scene after you investigated it?"
"Well, it is indeed the blood of an adult male, but we can't find matching DNA, so we can't be sure whether these blood stains belong to Masaho Komura."
Takagi Shita said.
"Can't find matching DNA material? Can't they find it at home? Anything similar to hair will do?"
Gao Yuan said doubtfully.
"That's what's very strange. Masako Komura's home is already in the company. Not to mention any DNA that can be extracted, not even a single fingerprint was left behind."
Miwako Sato said.
Hearing this answer, Gao Yuan couldn't help but feel helpless - it was just a guess at first, but it has come to this point. It seems that the disappearance of Masabo Komura was carefully planned!
"What about now? What happened to Ms. Komura's death? What's so strange about it?"
"Instead of listening to our story, why not go directly to the scene and see it, Mr. Akechi?"
After Gao Yuan asked, Miwako Sato thought for a moment, and then said in a tone that sounded like an invitation.
"But, Officer Sato, last time..."
Seeing Sato Miwako say this, Takagi Wataru was a little surprised. After all, the last time he took Gao Yuan to the disappearance scene of Komura Masao privately, Sato Miwako even scolded him.
"It's okay. Mr. Mingzhi is not an outsider anyway. I heard that Mr. Mingzhi helped a lot in the incident at Fifteen Nights Village."
Sato Miwako said with a smile.
Gao Yuan was also a little surprised by this. Although he had helped the Metropolitan Police Department solve several cases recently, he didn't expect that he would be trusted so quickly.
Therefore, Gao Yuan did not refuse, and after taking the shoe covers and gloves from the police officer, he followed Miwako Sato into the home of Masako Komura, while Wataru Takagi went downstairs in the elevator, as if to obtain access to the building.
personnel monitoring information.
Entering the home of Masako Komura, he came to the bathroom where Komura died in early summer.
I saw that the bathroom was equipped with facilities such as a toilet, a washbasin, and a bathtub, and the bathtub was covered with a plastic shower curtain.
Miwako Sato walked to the shower curtain and opened it. As expected, the body of Utsuka Komura was lying there at the moment. This good-looking woman, about thirty years old, died wearing only underwear.
In the bathtub.
In the early summer of Xiaocun, Gao Yuan had met this man once before in the garage where Mr. Xiaocun disappeared, but he didn't expect that when he saw him again, he would be a corpse.
However, after confirming that the deceased was indeed Xiaocun Chuxia, Gao Yuan suddenly felt something was wrong. After looking up and down carefully, he suddenly said: "Her hair?"
Yes, the difference from the first time we met was that Xiao Cun Chuxia had long hair shawl-length at that time, but now we see her with short hair.
"You discovered it too."
Miwako Sato said, "The deceased's original long hair was cut off and turned into what it is now."
Then he pointed to a pair of scissors sunk at the bottom of the bathtub filled with water and said, "It looks like it was cut with these scissors."
"What's the cause of death?"
Gao Yuan stepped forward, approached the body and asked.
"She was strangled, look at the marks on her neck."
Miwako Sato said.
Hearing this, Gao Yuan gently raised the chin of the corpse. Around the neck, you can clearly see the slender trenches and several small scars that look like scratches with fingernails - Yoshikawa line?
Moreover, no other external injuries were seen on the body, so it seemed that the cause of death was strangulation.
"How's it going? Any ideas?"
Miwako Sato asked.
Gao Yuan thought for a moment, then looked around at the items in the bathroom, and suddenly asked: "Where are the clothes of the deceased?"
"Why?"
"Don't you think it's strange? You are already in the bathroom and have taken off your clothes, why do you keep your underwear on?"
Gao Yuan said.
Sato Miwako was obviously confused by Takato's words, so she had no choice but to say: "If you ask about the deceased's clothes, they were on the bed in the bedroom."
Without staying in the bathroom any longer, Gao Yuan turned around and went to the bedroom. Seeing this, Sato Miwako followed.
When I came to the bedroom, I saw women's clothes piled on the bed.
At this time, Sato Miwako seemed to have thought of something, and explained Takato's question just now, "If I have to say it, it is not incomprehensible that the deceased was only wearing underwear. Maybe the deceased took off his clothes and went to the bathroom to take a shower.
He was killed by a murderer, so that’s why we are seeing this situation.”
"Then Officer Sato, will you strip down to your underwear in the bedroom and then go to the bathroom to take a shower?"
Gao Yuan asked seriously.
"Ah! What are you talking about!"
Because of Takato's question, Miwako Sato blushed and retorted, "How could I do such an inappropriate thing!"
Seeing Miwako Sato's reaction, Gao Yuan felt that the question he just asked was too straightforward. He couldn't help but smile awkwardly and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, I was just talking casually."
But soon, Gao Yuan continued in a serious tone: "So, isn't this strange? It would be understandable if a man did this, but I really can't imagine a woman doing this. It usually happens after entering the bathroom.
Just take off your clothes again."
After hearing what Gao Yuan said, Sato Miwako finally understood Gao Yuan's intention.
"That's why you asked where the deceased's clothes were? If the deceased had planned to take a bath, the clothes should have been placed in the bathroom. Is that what you meant?"
"That's right."
As Gao Yuan spoke, he opened the clothes piled on the bed by the deceased and looked at them one by one.
The top is a pair of white socks, the bottom is a thin knee-length skirt, and the bottom is a two-piece style long-sleeved T-shirt——
"strangeness."
A strange sense of dissonance emerged in Gao Yuan's mind, and then he asked Sato Miwako.
"The stacking order of the clothes has not been changed, right?"
"Well, we haven't moved anything in the house so far."
Miwako Sato said, "However, I don't see anything strange about these clothes."
Miwako Sato also responded to the "strange" thing Takato said softly just now.
Putting the clothes back in the same order, Gao Yuan was a little confused. He didn't know what was going on with the strange inconsistent feeling just now.
Turning his head and looking at Miwako Sato, who was wearing professional clothes at the moment, Gao Yuan then looked at the clothes on the bed. Suddenly, Gao Yuan understood what was going on with this strange sense of dissonance!
"I was wrong!"
Gao Yuan said with emotion, "I thought it was the murderer who took off the clothes of the deceased afterwards. But that's not true, the deceased took off his clothes himself!"
