Tokyo: Rabbit Officer and Her Evil Partner Chapter 77 The Madman’s Testament
According to statistics, the Sugamo Apartnt case resulted in 18 deaths and 1 minor injury. The survivor is nad Yasukawa Seiji, who was detained by the police so ti ago due to a neighborhood dispute.
The first person to witness the cri scene was the apartnt manager. He got up at six in the morning as usual to clean the hallway. Upon seeing the bodies, he imdiately ran downstairs to make a phone call. However, the public phone booth’s line was cut, so he had to walk to the Sugamo Station front Patrol House to report the case. As expected, there were no officers on duty at the patrol house. He had to walk another block to find another public phone booth and reported the case to the police station.
The Police Departnt attached great importance to this case. Minamoto Tamako didn’t even have the chance to profile the scene before the Investigation Division 1 took over. Those elite criminal police were extrely assertive, even Yamaguchi Takashi was marginalized, only able to watch them co and go at the scene.
Due to a manpower shortage, Fushimi Roku was temporarily reinstated. To put it nicely, it was called making ands by rit, and to put it harshly, it was being used as free labor. He was busy all night last night and still had to put on a refreshed appearance to help handle the scene today, his resentnt heavier than a ghost.
Everyone worked from morning until evening to finish processing the scene and taking statents from those involved.
Once the site report and autopsy report were ready, the head of Investigation Division 1 imdiately gathered everyone for a eting, requiring the investigative officers to analyze the case, identify suspects, and assign tasks.
The Golden Watch Team sat at the front of the eting room, while the station’s criminal police were seated like students. As for the patrol police from the patrol house, they stood uniformly at the back, waiting for tasks to be assigned.
"I am investigation officer Kaga Keido, please just call Kaga."
The man sitting at the head introduced himself briefly, then lowered his head to sort out the report and said smoothly, "Let’s skip the small talk and get to the main point. We have decided to rge this criminal case with a civil dispute from so ti ago, which also includes a suicide case that needs to be re-investigated..."
Yamaguchi Takashi couldn’t help but raise his hand. After being given a signal by a superior, he asked, "May I ask the reason for rging the cases?"
"I rember your na is Yamaguchi Takashi, right?" Kaga Keido didn’t wait for him to answer and flipped through the docunts on the table, speaking to himself, "That’s right, Yamaguchi Takashi, head of the criminal police division at Toyota District Police Station."
"Uh, that’s ."
"According to the records, patrol police from the front patrol house reported abnormal situations in the apartnt to you several tis. The first report was ’suspected shooting and falling case,’ and the second was ’suspected missing and kidnapping case’... all rejected by you without filing a case."
Kaga Keido closed the file, interlocked his fingers, and looked up, asking, "May I know why?"
Yamaguchi Takashi had a bad feeling. He glanced back at his assistant, who helped explain, "Well, the report submitted by the patrol police at that ti did not provide sufficient evidence to prove..."
"Was I asking you?" Kaga Keido interrupted.
The assistant was at a loss for words. He could feel that Keido Kaga’s montum overwheld the entire conference room. Even when reporting work to the chief, he never felt such pressure.
Yamaguchi Takashi had to explain for himself: "The report submitted by the patrol police didn’t et the case-filing standards, so it was rejected, and they were asked to handle it as a regular civil dispute..."
"An excuse." Kaga Keido interrupted again.
Yamaguchi Takashi could only reiterate, "That’s the regulation..."
"Are you talking to about regulations? Filing a case to appease a female reporter and then hastily closing it when the suspect attempted to accuse of violent enforcent, finally pushing it to patrol house as a civil dispute — which part of this complied with the regulations?" Kaga Keido countered.
Yamaguchi Takashi broke into a cold sweat, wetting his back. He hadn’t expected Keido Kaga to confront him publicly, and with a superior watching, he could only muster up the courage to say, "This has nothing to do with the Sugamo Apartnt massacre case..."
"Irrelevant?"
Kaga Keido turned on the projector. His assistant proactively closed the windows, and a magnified image of a white envelope with bloodstains at the edges, obviously a crucial piece of evidence found at the scene, was projected onto the screen.
This was a suicide note.
The handwriting on the envelope was twisted and manic, stating the motive for murder and the massacre process in the first person. The letter writer claid to have multiple personalities, one of which conspired with neighbors to assault a woman and threw her child off the roof; the other personality deeply abhorred such violence and killed all the accomplices upon awakening, leaving "Heavenly Punishnt" written on the wall...
Yamaguchi Takashi couldn’t bear it any longer. His face turned pale, and he couldn’t help but say, "Isn’t this too far-fetched?"
"This is the handwriting identification report," Kaga Keido tossed a stack of papers at his face, "Even if this suicide note is forged, the occurrence of the assault and falling cases are indisputable facts."
The papers fluttered down in front of Yamaguchi Takashi. Before he could regain his senses, Keido Kaga spoke again, "I suggest you continue reading and finish it."
Yamaguchi Takashi scanned two more lines, and when he saw the words ’steal police gun,’ his mind exploded like a nuclear bomb, his whole body going numb.
"Where’s your firearm?" Kaga Keido asked.
"..."
Yamaguchi Takashi felt his fingers go numb and his temples throb. His eyes widened, and after the buzzing in his ears subsided, his first reaction was to refuse to accept reality.
"Impossible, this is impossible... such a coincidence..." he muttered to himself.
Kaga Keido signaled his n to take him away. Two Golden Watch Team criminal police lifted Yamaguchi Takashi. Only then did he co to his senses and shouted that ’soone must be framing ,’ ’I’m innocent’... but no one present dared to speak for him, as everyone watched him being dragged out of the conference room.
They were all police officers and naturally knew the consequences of losing a firearm. In a case like Yamaguchi Takashi’s, involving a major case, he might face a few years in prison for negligence.
"From now on, the Toyota police station’s criminal police will be under my command."
Kaga Keido’s gaze swept over them: "Any objections?"
The conference room was silent, even Minamoto Tamako standing at the back didn’t dare to make a sound. Although she felt Yamaguchi Takashi’s downfall was gratifying, Keido Kaga was indeed too sharp, not giving the other party any face. This move to punish one to warn a hundred was quite effective, and no one present dared to voice objections.
Kaga Keido didn’t want to waste ti reorganizing internal affairs. He cleared his throat, his tone returning to calm, and began to explain the case to all the police officers present.
"Among the eighteen deceased, one victim is the most special. The other seventeen were killed with a swift throat slash, but his death was particularly grueso. This questionable suicide note was also found in his room. The assistant has distributed his personal information files to you, which you can find by turning to the third page of the eting docunt."
Upon hearing this, Minamoto Tamako lowered her head and flipped open the file in her hand.
The third page was a personal information form, with the na field showing Nagashima Takeshi and even his headshot present.
As expected, Minamoto Tamako thought. She instinctively turned to the next page and almost threw up her breakfast. The fourth page contained several cri scene photos that clearly captured Nagashima Takeshi’s body.
Suppressing her discomfort, she tugged on Fushimi Roku’s sleeve and whispered, "Hey, Fushimi, why is there blood flowing from that place? Do boys also have periods?"
