Chapter 138 Pisco: Vermouth, Save Me
The person in charge of the memorial meeting quickly called the police.
When they heard that the deceased was a Tokyo council member, the police acted extremely quickly.
Not long after, Officer Megure arrived at the scene with Officer Takagi and a large group of police officers.
Several policemen worked together to move the crystal chandelier that was pressing on Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi.
Afterwards, the police from the Forensic Department investigated the scene.
Inspector Megure pondered, "The deceased's name is Shigehiko Tōguchi, a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly. The preliminary cause of death is believed to be a falling chandelier hitting his head."
A long-haired man said: "Officer, this is definitely an accident. The chandelier ring has been in disrepair for a long time and it happened to fall on the head of the councillor."
Inspector Megure asked, "Who are you?"
"Tarumi Naoya, music producer."
Inspector Megure nodded. Although what Tarumi Naoya said made sense, an investigation was still necessary and conclusions could not be made too hastily.
"Were you standing next to Councilman Tunkou just now? Did you see anyone suspicious?"
Tarumi Naoya said: "No, everyone's attention was focused on the slides, so there was no time to care about anything else."
At this time, a police officer from the forensic department reported: "Inspector, we found this iron needle next to the deceased."
"Also, the deceased's lips and the tips of his hands and feet are slightly purple, there are spots of hemorrhage on his conjunctiva, and there is a red spot on the back of his neck. The deceased was most likely poisoned, and it was a highly lethal poison!"
"what?"
Inspector Megure walked over to Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi and checked him carefully, and found that the situation was indeed as the forensic police said.
"Then this incident can only be homicide!" Inspector Megure said in a deep voice.
Seeing the twists and turns in things, Pisco in the crowd couldn't help but turn his eyes to Vermouth.
Vermouth shook her head slightly, indicating that this was not her doing.
She came here today just to ensure the smooth progress of the assassination and had no intention of taking direct action.
But she had just seen the woman's actions, and there was no doubt that the man was killed by that woman.
Next to him, Kitagawa Taki did not stand up to greet Inspector Megure.
He was still wondering who this old man was.
"Inspector, the people around Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi just now said they didn't see any suspicious people."
Takagi Wataru reported after questioning.
Inspector Megure had a headache and didn't know how to start.
His eyes swept through the crowd, and suddenly, Inspector Megure's eyes lit up.
"Brother Kitagawa, you are here too!" Inspector Megure walked straight towards Kitagawa Taki.
Beichuan Taki was interrupted and replied: "Well, I came to attend the memorial service, and I didn't expect something like this to happen."
Inspector Megure asked in a low voice: "Brother, what do you think of this incident?"
Beichuan Taki said: "I heard a strange sound, which should be the sound of a gun with a silencer. It was covered by the laughter of the crowd and was not easily detected."
Inspector Megure widened his eyes. Why were there both poison needles and gunshots?
However, he did not doubt what Kitagawa Taki said.
Inspector Megure was puzzled and asked, "Could the gunman have shot the rings, causing the chandelier to fall? But the lights were off when we were watching the slides, so how could the gunman have seen it? And how could the gunman have ensured that Councillor Tōguchi was standing right under the chandelier?"
"Just apply fluorescent powder."
"The gunman had tampered with the rings in advance and painted them with fluorescent powder. He also painted the ground under the chandelier with fluorescent powder. All they had to do was have Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi stand where the light was."
Kitagawa Taki did not lower his voice.
Pisco heard every word Kitagawa Taki said, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Who the hell is this guy? How come he described his technique so accurately, as if he had seen it with his own eyes?
Pisco didn't want the mission to fail. As an old man in the organization, he knew very well the consequences of mission failure.
What awaits him is not imprisonment, but death!
Pisco looked to Vermouth for help.
"That's not right, Brother Kitagawa. Even if there is a silencer, if you fire a gun in the dark, others will be able to see the flash, right?" Inspector Megure raised his question.
A silencer can only reduce the muzzle flash, but it cannot completely eliminate it.
"It's simple. Just wrap the gun with this to block the light. This is the handkerchief they handed out when we entered the venue. It has the words 'Director Sakamaki Memorial Service' printed on it."
Kitagawa Taki took out the blue handkerchief he had received.
Then, Kitagawa Taki walked to a place not far from the chandelier and picked up a purple handkerchief.
"We should be able to detect a gun smoke reaction from this handkerchief."
At this moment, while everyone's attention was attracted by Kitagawa Taki, Vermouth walked to Pisco and secretly gave him a purple handkerchief.
Inspector Megure took the handkerchief and handed it to Takagi Wataru, saying excitedly: "As long as we find out who is missing the handkerchief, then that person is the murderer?!"
Beichuan Taki nodded and said, "Yes, the names were registered at the time. From that list, we can know who took the purple handkerchief."
"Brother Takagi!" Inspector Megure gestured to Takagi Wataru to investigate, then asked, "The poison needle and the chandelier accident should be caused by two people, right? Brother Kitagawa, do you have any clues about the poison needle?"
"The poison needle is difficult to detect. Inspector, you just asked the people around, and they all said they didn't see any suspicious people. Right now, we can only do an autopsy to find out what poison the murderer used."
It is naturally impossible for Kitagawa Taki to sell out Hojo Hitomi.
Inspector Megure thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case.
In a few minutes, Takagi Wataru came back.
"Inspector, there are seven people who received the purple handkerchiefs. They are Kenzo Masuyama, Chris Wynyard, Naoya Tarumi, Hitomi Hojo, Mika Minamijo, Yoshiharu Tawara, and Naomichi Mugura."
The seven people whose names were called identified themselves and stood up.
Kitagawa Taki finally found out that the old man was actually called Kenzo Masuyama, the chairman of a car company and also a big shot in the financial world.
Kenzo Masuyama, the old man, the financial tycoon...
Kitagawa Taki has already remembered the old man's identity. Isn't this another unlucky guy, Pisco?
One of the few real ones executed by Gin.
On the other side, after listening to the seven people's self-narration, Inspector Megure said: "Everyone, please take out your purple handkerchiefs!"
The seven people did as they were told and took out their handkerchiefs.
Takagi Wataru went forward to check them one by one and found that all of them were printed with the words "Memorial Service for Director Sakamaki".
"What?" Inspector Megure was shocked. The Forensic Department had just tested the handkerchief with test paper for gunpowder reaction, confirming Kitagawa Taki's reasoning.
But now the seven people who got the purple handkerchiefs all had purple handkerchiefs on them.
Officer Megure couldn't help but ask, "Brother Kitagawa, what's going on?"
Beichuan Taki replied: "Maybe they prepared extra handkerchiefs in advance, or maybe they took too many handkerchiefs."
Pisco interrupted, "Hey, you police have detained us for so long, can you let us go now? We all have handkerchiefs, so we are no longer suspected."
A stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Not only Pisco, but everyone else present was also aroused.
"That's right, how long are you police going to keep us here?"
"Are we who don't have purple handkerchiefs going to be left here too?"
"I know the top brass at your Metropolitan Police Department. I'd like to ask how your police officers handle cases."
……
Inspector Megure took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat off his face. These people were not easy to deal with. They were all celebrities and were under a lot of pressure!
