COS Jae-Ryu-Sui accidentally came to Beika-Cho

Chapter 159: Trip to Nagano (inference in progress)

"Ms. Kawamoto, please calm down. Miss Tsushima won't be able to help you solve your doubts if you behave like this." Zhufu Gaoming hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her.

Midorikawa Hikaru also joined in, "Yes, please trust us and Officer Morobushi, the real murderer will be caught and brought to justice."

Tsushima still had time to think that Midorikawa Hikaru must not have known that he was saying these words, his eyes were determined and did not look like a member of a criminal organization.

But he really isn't.

Kawamoto Aoi looked at the two people's similar blue eyes, the same expression, and the similar face shape, almost making her see double, but the words of the two people did bring her out of her crazy state.

After I calmed down, I realized my rude behavior.

She quickly released her hands from the person she was holding tightly, full of guilt and apology, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was too excited, I must have hurt you, I'm sorry Miss Tsushima."

Kawamoto Aoi apologized repeatedly.

"It's okay, I understand."

Tsushima raised his hand and touched Kawamoto Aoi's head unexpectedly, imitating the strength and movement of Midorikawa Hikaru's previous pat on her head, gently comforting the little girl who was crying inside.

Miss Kawamoto is a fragile and sensitive person, so she is used to relying on others and always blames herself. Facing the death of her loved ones made her lose her inner safe house, which is why she feels pain and fear.

But Aoi Kawamoto is a gentle, considerate and kind girl.

"It's totally okay, please cry as much as you want."

Kawamoto Aoi, who was still tense, couldn't stop tears from rolling down her eyes when she heard these words. She looked at the person in front of her who was extremely gentle at the moment, and burst into tears.

——It doesn’t matter. You won’t be blamed if you cry in front of her.

Her inner voice told her this, and Kawamoto Aoi threw herself into the other's arms, hugged his waist tightly, and wailed without caring about her image.

Tsushima patted his back silently to comfort him.

Everyone around stood there quietly, waiting silently, allowing this fragile little girl to vent her emotions first.

Even if someone wanted to interrupt, they would be intimidated and stopped by the gazes of Zhufu Gaoming and Midorikawa Guang.

After a while, Kawamoto Aoi calmed down from her sobbing. She gently withdrew from this not-so-broad embrace, which gave her enough warmth.

Can't bear to leave.

"Thank you, I'm much better now. I'm sorry to have caused you all trouble." Kawamoto Aoi quickly calmed down and apologized to everyone in a proper manner.

"Okay, Aoi-chan~ just stand by and watch my excellent reasoning!" Tsushima deliberately changed the address to shorten the distance, while livening up the atmosphere.

Kawamoto Aoi smiled, looked at the other person with trust, and nodded in response.

"So, back to the point, Mr. Kawamoto did die of a heart attack, but someone at the scene prevented him from taking medicine to save himself, so Mr. Kawamoto fell to the ground and died." Tsushima narrated in a serious tone.

When talking about Kawamoto's cause of death, he glanced at Kawamoto Aoi and continued talking after finding that she did not react.

"At the same time, he left crucial evidence for us, right in his hands."

Tsushima walked to the side of the body and motioned for everyone to focus their attention.

Everyone first saw what the deceased's right hand was pointing at.

"Yes, it's Sunflower!" Takahashi Yota blurted out with a shocked expression on his face. At the same time, he fixed his gaze on Kawamoto Aoi, who had her head lowered and was so quiet that she seemed unaware of the outside world.

Sunflower, Aoi is also known as Kawamoto Aoi.

More than that.

Takahashi Yota explained, "The sunflower was carved by the teacher for his daughter, and he often used sunflowers to describe Ms. Kawamoto."

This is the truth.

Except for Ito Takuji, no one else at the scene looked at Kawamoto Aoi, but continued to stare at the corpse.

Of the six people present, more than half already knew who the murderer was, including Kawamoto Aoi, who was now the suspect.

Kawamoto Aoi raised her head, stared at the other person with a calm and cold gaze, and said bluntly, "You are right, the sunflower was made by my father for me, and I was named after the sunflower, so the sunflower represents me in my father's heart."

Sunflowers grow towards the sun and follow the light.

Takahashi Yota should have been relieved when he saw the other party admit the suspicion himself, but for some reason his heart was beating wildly.

"You, then why did you kill the teacher? You are so hypocritical..."

Snapped--

Tsushima clapped his hands vigorously, interrupting Takahashi Yota's continued questioning, and then attracted the attention of the whole audience.

She sighed and shook her head, pretending to be sympathetic and said, "Okay, Mr. Takahashi, you are really not suitable for entering the entertainment industry, but I know a big star who may be able to transform you, but you probably won't have the chance to meet her in the future."

"Because you'll go to jail later~"

"What, what do you mean! What do you mean!" Takahashi Yota became excited.

"You said that the teacher has evidence. Is it because you have a good relationship with her that you go back on your word?"

"You want to shift the suspicion onto me? Don't forget that there are other police officers here. I believe the police officers will know right from wrong!"

Takahashi Yota pointed at Tsushima, then at Kawamoto Aoi, and then turned to Morobushi Takaaki.

The indication is very clear.

Tsushima and Kawamoto Aoi are in the same group, so they support the suspect Kawamoto Aoi and refuse to admit it even though the evidence is right in front of them.

So he finally set his sights on Zhu Fu Gaoming.

Zhu Fu Gao Ming did not disappoint. He said calmly, "Mr. Takahashi, you should know that sunflowers do not only refer to Miss Kawamoto, but also refer to the sun."

"Please look carefully at Mr. Kawamoto's hands."

"What, do you suspect me of being the murderer? Wasn't his hand pointing at the sunflower?" Takahashi Yota shouted.

"So, what about the other one?" Zhu Fu Gaoming asked calmly.

"The other one, of course, covered his chest!" He roared in dissatisfaction. It was such an obvious thing, but he had to ask again and again. Couldn't he see it himself?

Zhu Fu Gaoming was not affected by the other party's attitude, nor did he care about the other party's rudeness and impatience.

He lowered his eyes and closed them, sighing, "I am chasing after the trivial things."

"That's not right. Mr. Takahashi, please look carefully. Mr. Kawamoto's left hand is not just covering his heart."

"He still holds the key to this case in his hand."

Tsushima spoke at the right time.

Midorikawa Hikaru put on the white gloves he had gotten from somewhere and followed Tsushima's instructions to turn over the dead man's left hand, where a wooden sculpture of a sunflower lay.

It is light, delicate and lifelike, showing the exquisite craftsmanship. The only drawback is that it is stained with a little blood and a corner of the petal is missing. It is held so conspicuously in the palm of the hand.

This was carved by Mr. Kawamoto himself while he was sitting at the workbench after he had an argument with his daughter. During the process, he was distracted and his finger was scratched by the blade, leaving blood on it, so there is a small wound on his finger that was caused not long ago.

The location of the missing petals is unknown.
