Chapter 988 Complex Humanity
"I think these songs are pretty good. Sato, what do you think?" Takagi Shiroshi gave a wink at Sato Mikako.
He asked this in disguise, asking Sato whether he thought this person was suspicious and whether it was necessary to continue investigating.
"...It's really interesting. I think I can try to recommend it to the company." Mikako Sato nodded with a smile, and held Conan, who was introduced as her younger brother, in her hand.
This is what I think he is quite suspicious, so I have to apply for a search warrant and inform Kogoro and his group downstairs of the meaning.
"Okay, that's all. Do you need to add a contact information?" Takagi Suga walked over with a smile and took out his cell phone, blocking Sato Mikako's action of secretly taking out his cell phone to take a photo.
Ruoda Shuoji's eyes were still on Emoto's hand that let Shi let go, and his expression was stunned. When Takagi took off his tick, he responded like a sleepwalking, took out his cell phone and added the other party's mobile phone number.
"Yeah, then let's go." Seeing that the people seemed to be about to let go, Emoto breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to leave. "That, Emoto..."
Watching him walking to the direction of the door, Rokuda Shuoji stood up and couldn't help but shout.
Emoto Kazushi stopped and turned around, with helplessness in his expression, and some insight.
After a distance of several meters, the two people looked at each other silently.
"What's wrong, Liutian, what's wrong?"
"...No, that, be careful on the road, be safe."
"Okay..."
Conan looked at the expressions of the two people and couldn't help but pull on Mikako Sato's cuffs.
This is obviously a rhythm of something. I'm afraid that Emoto Masashi had seen something, or that their rhetoric of trying to help him get out of trouble was very touched by Rokuda Shuoji - whether he was a prisoner or not.
Mikako Sato grabbed Conan's wrist to show that she understood. Seeing that Rokuda Shuoji seemed to really not plan to say anything else, she took a few people away.
"I've said it all, Ryuda is definitely not a bad guy..." Emoto Kazushi rubbed his neck and said with a relaxed smile, "When he was in a band, most of them joined in the fun and thought it was fashionable, but Ryuda really loved it very much... Sometimes I am quite envious of this pure state."
Mikako Sato and Suga Takagi exchanged glances and swallowed the words that had already flowed to their mouths.
Although Liu Tian is very suspicious, they have not found any substantial evidence after all. The victim's family currently does not plan to cooperate. Now that they say that the next action plan may only have the opposite effect.
It would be better to comfort him temporarily and consider the situation after meeting with Kogoro Mori and others...
"You have a good relationship with him, it looks." Takagi Suk looked at the stairs ahead and racked his brains to tactfully say, "Didn't you say that you don't have that much contact with him?"
"Ah, there is really not so much since you become an adult. There is no way, everyone has their own job..."
"Then you bring us here today. If he finds that it's all fake, won't he be angry?"
"No, how do you say that, Rokuda has been working hard for so many years, so he should, uh, get used to it, right?"
"It sounds a bit too much..."
The two began to talk, and Mikako Sato took the opportunity to fall behind, took out her cell phone to send a text message to the person who searched for a lesson according to the situation.
If you want to thoroughly search the other party's residence, find out whether it is possible to hide the kidnapped hostages, or whether it is possible to transfer the person to another place, or you still need to search more thoroughly after a search warrant...
The four people walked out of the corridor of the apartment and walked down the stairs, but saw four people who were left to wait in a semicircle, surrounding the exit of the stairs.
"You guys, this is..." Seeing their ready-to-go, Takagi Sho was stunned, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Don't you explain this, Mr. Emoto?" Kogoro Mori shook the envelope in his hand.
The other unrelated letters have been restored very skillfully by Kogoro Mori and Tangze and then stuffed back into the mailbox. The sender, who marked as Masashi Emoto, was taken out separately.
It can be clearly seen from the open envelope that these are three hard prints, exactly the same as those scattered on the desktop of Rokuda Shuoji's studio just now.
"Lottery?" Sato Mikako frowned.
"And yes, the lottery that has won the first prize." Tang Ze showed the search page on his mobile phone, "There is a time limit for redemption. If you don't redeem it quickly, you will always have a long night and a lot of dreams, not to mention that Mr. Rokuta's financial situation seems not optimistic. 10 million yen is definitely a life-saving money..."
Conan opened his eyes wide and almost immediately understood what was going on.
I am afraid that the letter that is now held in Mouri Kogoro is the origin of the entire case.
This should be the lottery tickets that Rokuda Takaji mentioned just now and sent to Emoto Masashi at the end of the year.
Takoji Rokuda, who is so concerned about the lottery situation, must be able to know the number of lottery numbers for the first prize. After discovering that the lottery he gave to his friend turned out to be the first prize, he must have quickly fallen into a complicated struggle.
Emoto Masashi is a very interesting friend, and the things he has given out do not theoretically belong to him at all.
But for him who was struggling, this was another wealth that he could not ignore.
It is difficult for him to ask Shi Shi directly from Emoto. Doing so may reveal the fact that he won the lottery. Even if he knows that Shi Sula is not interested in these things, he is still worried about the possibility of human nature.
But if he gave up, he could not treat it as nothing, or was more open-minded, and really treated it as a gift given, it would be difficult for him to do it.
So, he came up with a solution, which was to disguise his appearance and contact his cousin who now lives in the Masashi family, and wanted to find out the situation of their family, especially where the letter was placed, and to silently get the lottery back.
However, what he did not expect was that Emoto Masashi was a better friend who was more loyal than he thought.
Emoto Shi knew his life, so he chose to send the lottery back to him without even reading it, clearly hoping that he could take good care of himself. It was Rokuda Shuoji himself who did not clean up the mailbox, which led to the lonely letter worth a thousand gold being stuffed into the mailbox and was not discovered by him.
In this way, while there was no one else at the family, Rokuda Shuoji ran to their house, and after letting Hirota open the door, he could not find these lottery tickets. He mistakenly thought that Emoto had exchanged it, and in a mood, he kidnapped Hirota and threatened the Emoto family to give money...
"So, it was indeed this person who did it." Takagi Suk suddenly realized, "He found out that the lottery given to Mr. Emoto won the lottery, and tried to get it back, but couldn't find it, so..." "Is it just for this reason? It's so hateful." Mikako Sato hammered the railing of the stairs, "Kidnapping is a very serious crime!"
Not to mention that Emoto Masashi is such a bright friend. It is simply shameful to judge a gentleman by his villain's heart. "So, why didn't he call you directly?" Conan raised his head and looked at Emoto Masashi in confusion. "As long as he asks you on his own initiative, then all this will not be a problem?"
Emoto Masashi looked at the lottery and pressed his forehead. Obviously, he didn't know how to answer this question for a while.
"Then go find him now." Mikako Sato grabbed the lottery tickets, "It seems that Hirota must be at his house, so just..."
"No, wait!" Emoto, who had his head down, raised his hand and stopped Mikako Sato, "Ruda, he just thought he was doing too badly and could not ask for help from us, and even intentionally alienated his classmates and friends from the past... He and his nature are really not bad. As long as he sees that everything is a misunderstanding, he will soon think about it. I believe he will not hurt Hirota, so can he wait a little longer..."
"Even if he saw the lottery ticket, it was really as you said. If his conscience discovers and releases Hirota, the kidnapping is a very serious behavior." Mikako Sato said coldly, "What's the difference? The police have intervened in the investigation. This matter..."
"There are indeed some differences."
"What...?" After hearing the rebuttal unexpectedly, Mikako Sato turned around and looked at the person who spoke out.
Tang Ze looked at her expression and persuaded him: "The current crime and the suspension of the crime are not the same as the same sentencing. I can understand Mr. Emoto's idea. If his friend chooses to admit his mistake or stop his crime after seeing the lottery, if Hirota is indeed not seriously injured, he may not file a lawsuit or be acquitted in the end."
"You have also studied this..." Kogoro Mori turned his head and looked at Tang Ze, and agreed with him, "Yes, he is right. Subjective intention is a very important criterion in law, which will directly affect the outcome of the case judgment. Of course, arresting him is something that the police should do, and these are the steps of subsequent litigation."
No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!
"Ah, I did study it. After all, I was considered a current crime at the beginning?" Tang Ze blinked and said lightly, "There is no lawyer to communicate with me about these, I can only check it myself."
In anger, Mikako Sato, who wanted to refute a few more words, suddenly reduced his momentum when she heard him say this.
"Judgement is a very serious matter." As for her gaze, Tang Ze put on a gentle smile and said earnestly, "Crime is a bad choice, but I think that sometimes others should be allowed to regret it. If Mr. Emoto insists..."
...Okay, if it was Tang Ze, he sincerely hoped that the prisoner would have an opportunity, and it was not unreasonable to understand.
Faced with this unlucky child who was seriously injured by the judicial system, it was really hard for Mikako Sato to say anything harshly, so when Masashi Emoto tried to pull the envelope back from her, Mikako Sato did not stop it.
"...20 minutes." Facing Emoto's thanks, she replied firmly, "If Rokuda Shiji really comes down to check the mailbox, he can wait 20 minutes. But if he does nothing at all within 20 minutes, don't blame me for being unhuman. You should consider your brother's safety more, his current situation is unknown."
"Of course! I believe that Rokuda just took the wrong path for a while... Of course, I fully understand your idea. He is indeed extreme. It is the right choice for you to arrest him according to law..." Emoto hurriedly stuffed the envelope back to the mailbox and said this.
Mikako Sato curled her lips, and was pulled by Takagi's clothes before turning her head and said nothing.
The group who reached an agreement quickly left the location in front of the apartment building and moved to another hidden intersection, maintaining their observation of the apartment.
"Officer Sato, you're still so kind." Takagi Sug looked at Mikako Sato, who seemed to be very upset, and smiled and leaned into her ear.
"Stop talking." Mikako Sato glared at Takagi and looked at the entrance of the apartment building illuminated by street lights in the night. "I'm not a good person to talk to. I just..."
"It's because I deliberately wanted to get sympathy, so Officer Sato couldn't bear it, right?" Tang Ze, who was standing behind the two of them, took the conversation, "Thank you, Officer Sato. This is indeed a bit unruly, I understand." br>
"No, you just... forget it." Mikako Sato instinctively refuted Tang Ze's statement of self-deprecatingness, turned her head to see Tang Ze's face, and patted her forehead with a disgusting, "The police are just ordinary people. Emoto doesn't want to expand the harm, it's normal."
She just suddenly remembered that she had discovered that the prisoner was actually a friend of the past, and she died under the wheel in order to save her life, just her father.
The Dharma is not sympathetic, but as long as you can, more people can repent and repent from the bottom of your heart, which is not a bad thing...
It seems that I felt her downward emotions. Takagi Sugh said nothing, patted her on the shoulder, and then stood in the darkness, continuing to observe the apartment building.
After two minutes, a person came down from the stairs outside the apartment, which was reflected by street lights, and he was very anxious from his figure.
It is obvious that I had discovered that the conversation in the apartment had a greater wavering of Rokuda Shuoji than he seemed. Almost as soon as they left, the man came down from the upper floor.
After a dozen meters, I couldn't hear the movement there, but I could see clearly that Liu Tian almost threw himself on the mailbox, opened a certain grid, and hurriedly searching for something.
The mailbox they flipped over was still as messy as they were, but the lottery tickets that were rushing into were much shallower than they were originally. After only half a minute, Liuda's movements stopped.
He stood there stiffly, stunned for a minute or two before he suddenly raised his head and rushed upstairs quickly.
Emoto breathed a sigh of relief and turned his back.
Watching this scene with his own eyes also made him feel very uncomfortable.
"This guy has never been very lucky. He had a chance to succeed, and we all looked down on him, but he always had a little chance. He either caught a cold during the interview or missed the quota when applying for the exam. In this way, he gradually became more and more depressed and he was unwilling to talk to us about any situation." As if to explain, or simply confide in, Masashi Emoto couldn't help but say, "It's rare that he was lucky once and encountered such a thing again... This is really..."
"That's not the reason for him to do this." Eiyu Hondo, who had been silent and watching, suddenly spoke, "Kidnap his friend's younger brother, in order to blackmail money, this is a very serious betrayal. Don't mention that you have no intention of possessing lottery tickets and bonuses at all, this is even more ashamed of your trust."
"No, you can't say that. People are very complicated." Tang Ze shook his head, "The amount of the first prize is far more than 1 million yen, and he also knows that he is doing this is inauthentic."
"That can't erase the fact that he is doing evil."
"Of course, I don't object to your idea."
"Huh, sometimes I think you are quite angry, Tang Zejun."
"Huh? Will it?"
The other people listened to the argument between the two high school students and smiled at each other, and their expressions relaxed.
The group stood quietly in the darkness, silently looking at the apartment building, waiting.
Sato Mikako was almost unable to hold back and wanted to leave her hiding place to see the situation. They finally waited for the expected figure.
The little child appeared on the stairs, turned around and walked down the apartment building.
