Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 90: The Assassin in the Pupil

After simply eating the fruit plate left by Miss Minami, Uesugi Sosetsu took the time to go to sleep. The body would be delivered in the early morning, and he would be busy after that.

Uesugi Sosetsu fell into a sound sleep in the hotel. The joint special investigation headquarters was divided into three directions to attack. The local police stations and local branches set up dozens of screens to check the surveillance. The huge wave caused by the third case attracted the full force of the Criminal Department.

Tokyo, Public Security Police secret facility.

"Ah ah ah ah ah ah ah!"

Screams were heard from inside the secret facility.

Professional interrogators of the public security police are providing gentle "Japanese stick massage service" to the arrested gang members to loosen up their muscles and bones.

There are also Japanese skin care, Japanese diving and other humane and thoughtful treatments.

Among them, the Futaba Group, which was arrested first, was in the most miserable situation. The team leader Takakura was tortured by the public security police and there was not a single scratch on his body. He was tortured so badly that he wanted to enjoy 24 hours of sufficient sleep every day.

At this moment, someone appeared and interrupted the thoughts of Security Chief Kudo Tsuyoshi.

Inspector Ichijo, a management officer of the Public Security Bureau of the Metropolitan Police Department, came to Tsuyoshi Kudo and conveyed to the public security leader the analysis and judgment of Uesugi Sosetsu at the previous joint special investigation meeting.

Yes, although it was a meeting of the criminal faction, the public security side could easily learn the content of the meeting.

After fully conveying Uesugi Muneyuki's judgment to Minister Kudo, Inspector Ichijo saw that his superior looked unhappy, so he could only ask tentatively: "Minister, I think Uesugi Muneyuki's judgment makes sense. Should we try to change direction? Change our thinking? If we can't get a breakthrough from the gang, this matter will be troublesome."

"Things have already been troublesome at this point, Ichijo-kun." Minister Kudo thrust his cigarette butt fiercely into the ashtray. His eyes were bloodshot and his hair was messy. It was obvious that he had not had a good rest for a long time. "What Uesugi Muneyuki said does make some sense, but we can't change it!"

"Why?" The police inspector looked around.

"Has Koutaro Igawa pleaded guilty?" Minister Kudo asked coldly.

"How is that possible? He has a perfect alibi." The police officer shook his head in distress: "He firmly refuses to plead guilty and does not admit to murder."

On the public security side, ever since the arrest of these people from the Futaba Group, including other gangs in Chiba Prefecture, they have been trying to "persuade" these people to plead guilty, especially Igawa Koutaro, who left a cigarette butt, a key piece of evidence, at the scene.

However, Igawa Koutaro also knew that murder was a serious crime, especially when the victim was an elementary school student. He also had a perfect alibi, so this guy would never plead guilty, even if the police tortured him.

Until the third case broke out, the entire public security system was slapped in the face.

At this point even Security Minister Kudo knew that no matter what, the third case was unlikely to have been committed by a violent gang.

Just like Uesugi Sosetsu said, is Tokyo the lair of the underworld?
"Do you know why I haven't stepped down to apologize yet, Ichijo-kun?" Kudo Tsuyoshi asked coldly.

A police officer remained silent, because the police are a covert department and they cannot be wrong.

"Because they are really smuggling drugs, idiot!" The Minister of Security raised his chin and lectured his subordinates.

"Failure means we are eliminating crime! Success means we are solving a serial murder case!"

No matter what, our police will never be wrong.

Kudo Gang grabbed a police inspector by the collar and said, "You and Godai stay over there. Report any news to me immediately!"

"Yes!" The police inspector looked at the prisoners with sympathy, but soon the sympathy disappeared.

The death penalty is inevitable, and living punishment is hard to escape. Especially since the police have lost face this time, they will inevitably be convicted of heavier crimes as a fig leaf.

But this is what they deserve, because they actually smuggled narcotics.

This is also the fundamental reason why their public security system has not yet been completely cleared up.

Although we didn't kill any big tigers, we did kill some wolves and dogs.

Minister Kudo, you have already thought of a way out, right?
…………

Uesugi Sosetsu was woken up by Watanabe Minami at 3:30 in the morning.

"Uesugi-kun, the body from the third case has been delivered." Miss Minami's voice sounded very tired.

"Okay, I'll come now." Uesugi Sosetsu was still a little sleepy. Upon hearing the news, he immediately got up and rushed to the Joint Special Investigation Headquarters fifty meters away.

Watanabe Minami and another police inspector, Okada Masayoshi, the director's personal driver who had appeared many times before, were already waiting for him.

"How's the body?" Uesugi Munen quickly greeted the two of them. "Did you find anything else about the deceased or the scene?"

"The relationship between the deceased is the same as before. Yamato Rina's family is richer than the two families in Chiba Prefecture. The family of the deceased was very emotional. It took us a long time to convince them to agree to an autopsy." Watanabe Minami walked in front, wearing standard patent leather high heels and thick black stockings, and the Metropolitan Police Department's winter police commuter uniform: "Everything is ready."

Miss Minami and Inspector Okada, one on each side, opened the door of the temporary morgue in the police station.

The busy group of men in suits nearby stopped walking and chatting as if they had a premonition when they saw this scene.

Uesugi Sosetsu's face was cold and stern. He took his white coat from Inspector Okada and draped it over his shoulders. Across the corridor, the light of the incandescent lamp was refracted into colorful spots, shining on Uesugi Sosetsu's body.

Confident, serious and cold.

It was as if the last hope of all Japanese police officers was on his shoulders.

It’s true if you think about it carefully!
"The situation outside is terrible, there are reporters everywhere." Inspector Okada looked unhappy: "The news has spread so widely that even Tokyo TV cancelled its original variety show and broadcast a special program on the serial murder case instead."

"What? Even Tokyo TV doesn't show cartoons anymore?" Miss Minami's eyes widened. This is troublesome!
Tokyo TV is the real weathervane of heavyweight news.

"The cabinet has also ordered the director-general to solve the case as quickly as possible." Inspector Okada and Miss Minami looked at the door of the morgue together.

"At present, Groups 1, 2 and 3 have not made any special discoveries. Perhaps our hopes will have to be placed on Uesugi-kun again."

After closing the door of the morgue, Uesugi Sosetsu began the autopsy.

The deceased, Rina Yamato, was an 11-year-old elementary school student. The primary cause of death was a stab wound to the liver in the abdomen, and the secondary cause of death was strangulation by electric wire.

After just a few glances, Uesugi Sosetsu frowned.

What a fierce attack and method!
Stab wounds are generally divided into two types. The first type is with life response, and the second type is without life response. Simply put, at the time of the stabbing, it depends on whether the deceased is alive or dead. If he is stabbed while alive, he has life response, and if he is stabbed while dead, he has no life response.

By judging whether there is any sign of life on the wounds, the attack sequence and characteristics of the murderer can be easily identified.

When Uesugi Sosetsu identified the wound, he realized that the murderer could not be a "weakling".

There is only one fatal wound, and there is also one life reaction, that is to say, the murderer made this one blow.

This situation is unlikely to occur in vulnerable groups, because vulnerable groups or those with weak mental strength are easily afraid of not being able to kill with one stab. They will tend to stab many times to make sure the other person is dead and then commit the crime out of self-preservation psychology.

In other words, the murderer was not only cold-blooded, but also had absolute confidence in his attack.

This is true for the first case and the third case as well.

Judging from this alone, the police's judgment actually makes sense. The murderer should be an experienced former Yakuza male.

But why is there nothing to be gained?

After performing a superficial autopsy, Uesugi Sosetsu felt that it was almost done.

He raised his right hand, and the azurite was glowing.

A cyan energy vortex enveloped the room, and at his call, the souls of the dead were awakened.

[Wuwuwuwu~ It hurts, it hurts so much, wuwuwuwu~] The girl is not pretty, she is a bit silly, her eyes are far apart, and she is a bit stupid: [Why?]

[Hello, Yamato, I am Uesugi Sosetsu.] Uesugi Sosetsu keenly sensed that the girl's soul power was being consumed very quickly, so he briefly introduced himself and immediately asked: [Who killed you and stabbed you with a knife?]

[It hurts, it’s a sister! ]

姐姐？！
Uesugi Sosetsu's eyes widened, his pupils constricted, and he felt a little dizzy.

Wait, it's your sister?

female? !
Impossible? All the suspicious people investigated by the police are men!
[Are you sure? What does she look like? How did she attack you? ]

[Wow, wow, wow~ I don’t know, I didn’t see clearly, she just told me that she wanted to go to the toilet, so I took her to the nearby toilet, and then this sister suddenly took out a knife from her body and stabbed me, it hurt so much! ] The girl’s soul is still crying: [She was wearing a school uniform, she didn’t look like a bad person, why did she stab me? ]

Is it really a woman?

Uesugi Sosetsu suddenly had a vague thought of something.

The information previously transmitted from Chiba Prefecture, in the second case, said that there was very little surveillance near the weather station, and there were almost no suspicious persons, only some students passing by after school!

student? !
Are you a student?!

Schoolgirl!!!
Considering that the three crimes took place in the afternoon when school was over but office workers were still working.

Uesugi Sosetsu suddenly had a very terrifying association.

wrong!

From the very beginning, it was completely wrong!
Both the Chiba Prefecture police and the public security bureau completely got the direction of their search wrong!

From the beginning, they focused their search on adult men with experience in gang ties.

The corresponding female students are an absolute "vulnerable group" and are naturally excluded from the police's suspicion!
No wonder we couldn’t find the suspect even after digging three feet underground!

It turns out that this legendary serial killer is a schoolgirl!

But in this case, the question arises again, how can a female student possess such excellent killing skills, know how to deal with corpses, and be able to commit crimes calmly?

The key is how Uesugi Sosetsu can convince the police to change the direction of their search?
[Do you know who that sister is? ] Uesugi Sosetsu asked in a deep voice.

[No, I don’t know who she is, and it was so painful at the time that I can’t remember it anymore! ]

Tsk!
Uesugi Sosetsu's face was as dark as ink and as gloomy as the abyss, and his eyebrows were tightly twisted.

This answer was completely beyond his expectations.

The murderer is an underage female student?

What’s even worse is that the deceased didn’t even know the murderer!
This, who would believe this?
