Chapter 2977 2981 [Case Closed]
Okiya Subaru: "..." As expected, not long after, the senior sister was gone.
At the same time, despite all precautions, he was still involved and almost became a major suspect. If Jiang Xia hadn't been there...
The famous detective, who seemed to be emitting holy light, listened to him while looking at the door.
At this time, a police officer from the forensic department ran in: "Mr. Jiang Xia, we extracted a fingerprint from the glass bottle containing the poison - but strangely, it doesn't belong to anyone in the box."
Jiang Xia looked at the bottle and asked the graduate students present: "Did your coat fall off or your backpack fall over during the party?"
"This..."
The old professor, Okiya Subaru and the short-haired senior sister suddenly remembered something, and they looked at Senior Togashi.
The short-haired senior hesitated and said, "When I came here early to set up the box, the professor accidentally sat on the shaky chair and knocked over Togashi's backpack."
Jiang Xia seemed to have seen the scene at that time: "Then the things in the bag spilled out, and the waiter who passed by helped to pick up the things?"
Okiya Subaru's heart skipped a beat: How did he know so clearly?
"Really... really worthy of being a famous detective." After sorting out the past in his mind again, Okiya Subaru seemed to understand why Jiang Xia asked such a question. He said to himself silently, "Don't think too much, this must be the kind of reasoning ability that saves countless people from fire and water. Yes, it must be like this."
Next to him, the old professor and the short-haired senior obviously didn't think about anything else. The two nodded and couldn't help showing a slightly admiring look.
Jiang Xia then said to Officer Sato: "Ask the waiter who helped just now to see if her fingerprints can match the fingerprints on the poison bottle."
Sato Miwako responded, pushed the door and left, and soon brought someone back.
…
“Yes, I helped pick it up.” The waitress was a young woman in her twenties. She stood at the crime scene, looking a little uneasy. “There was indeed a glass bottle. Because it was made of glass, I checked it to see if it was broken. I found no cracks, so I put it back in the backpack.”
Jiang Xia nodded and pointed to the backpacks in the corner: “Do you remember which bag it fell out of?”
There were quite a few bags in the corner, but fortunately, the styles were distinct enough—there were leather bags that old-fashioned scholars loved to use, a square backpack that looked unusually heavy and sturdy, and a pink schoolbag with cute dolls hanging on it…Among them, an ordinary brown sports bag suddenly became not so ordinary.
“This is it.” The waitress pointed at it.
Senior Togashi’s face changed.
Others also recognized it one after another: “This, isn’t this Togashi’s schoolbag!”
The old professor shook his head, revealing a sad expression that he couldn’t bear to look at.
Jiang Xia glanced at Senior Togashi, who had a livid face. "You brought this bottle of poison. After you poisoned it, you quickly wiped off your fingerprints on the bottle and quietly put it into Mr. Okiya's backpack.
"But you were not in the box when the backpack fell, and you didn't know if anyone else had touched it. In addition, time was tight, so you didn't wipe it carefully. When the waitress checked whether it was broken, she held it differently from usual. This series of circumstances added up, and eventually you missed wiping off the fingerprint that belonged to her. "
"..."
With the poison bottle in the bag and the poisonous fruit pulp left in the cup extracted, Senior Togashi's legs softened and he knelt on the ground.
"I, I fell in love with Keiko as soon as I entered the laboratory and pursued her. After a long time and giving her a lot of things, I finally caught her.
"I thought I would become the envied winner and spend a sweet and happy youth... But Keiko said that it was not good to tell others about the relationship in the laboratory, and she refused to announce our relationship to others, and also did not allow me to tell others.
"Although I was not very happy, I let her do it and kept it a secret.
"In addition, every time we went on a date, she asked me to buy her a lot of expensive things. In order to satisfy her, I even borrowed a loan. I gave her everything I could give."
"But a while ago, after this guy entered the laboratory, Keiko suddenly proposed to break up with me!" Senior Togashi raised his hand and pointed at Subaru Okiya angrily, as if he was looking at his enemy:
"Later, I secretly read the chat records between Keiko and her friends, and found out that she actually fell in love with this guy-but Okiya somehow found out that she was not single. In order to hook the guy, Keiko actually...actually decided to kick me away and restore her single status.
"What does she think of me? A scrapped ATM that prevents her from starting her next relationship? ?
"I cared about Keiko, but she treated me like a piece of trash and threw me away casually - I couldn't stand this kind of trampling!
"So I pretended to break up with her in a cowardly way, and made a careful plan to send her down on her birthday, and then push the murder crime to Okiya, and get rid of these two thorns in my eyes!"
No mistakes, one song, one post, one content, one look!
Okiya Subaru: "..."
"I was so careful, why did I still get involved in a murder case? ... Could it be that because I didn't take the initiative to approach Jiang Xia recently, "that adult" thought I was slacking off, so he was hitting me?"
A graduate student sighed haggardly: "I just acted with Jiang Xia not long ago, and I lost my car, although it was not voluntary..."
"Speaking of cars, why don't I get rid of my current car and replace it with a cheaper ordinary car, so as not to be targeted by similar people again."
Okiya Subaru touched his chin, feeling that the whole society was full of dangers. He murmured hesitantly: "But now this car has been modified by me, and the safety factor is not comparable to those first-hand cars... Oh, forget it, I won't change it. In any case, car accidents are much more difficult to prevent than poisoning. Poisoning only requires you to control your mouth, but car accidents can happen anytime and anywhere."
"As for being treated as a suspect, as long as you can meet a detective like Jiang Xia every time, this danger is not considered dangerous... Huh?!"
The moment this thought flashed through his mind, Okiya Subaru was enlightened, and he felt that he instantly understood what Wu Zuo meant.
——Did Lord Wu Zuo really think that he was not active enough in approaching Jiang Xia, so he had what happened today?
...
Soon, the murderer was taken to the police car in tears.
And the squinty-eyed graduate student who escaped seemed to be a little more enthusiastic than before.
Jiang Xia looked at this subordinate who was still grateful and nodded with satisfaction.
