I Teach Kendo in Tokyo Chapter 63: Suicide is a tradition

He Ma wanted to chat more with the two detectives from the Odaiba Police Station, when a harsh brake sound came from behind.

He looked back and saw Detective Iida and his partner from the Metropolitan Police Department's search section get out of the car.

He also heard the detective Sang from Odaiba say, "The big man of Sakurada Gate is here, this is none of our business."

He Ma turned to meet him, and extended his hand to Ju Tian: "Long time no see, Ju Tian Detective."

Detective Juda held Kazuma's hand and went straight to the topic with a polite sentence: "What's the situation?"

"I got a police department wearing a gold watch, named Kenichi Kitachi, do you have an impression?"

"No, he certainly wasn't from Yisou." Criminal police officer Iida immediately said, "I know the Golden Watch police department in Yisou. In fact, I suspect that the entire criminal department is not called Kitacho's police department, it should be the police department. Over there?"

Hema: "The Police Department"

Detective Iida complained: "The police badge system of the Japanese police should have been changed a long time ago, at least people have to show that they belong."

"The police badge system in the United States is also like this. The police badge in the accident can only show that he is." Asano interjected, "Everything in Japan is in line with the United States, so don't think about it."

Detective Juda nodded, walked around Kazuma and Asano to the body, took out gloves from his pocket and put them on while muttering to himself: "Let me see what the police department Sang looks like"

He crouches beside the corpse and straightens the corpse's face with his hands.

"I really don't have an impression at all." Detective Juda whispered, "I thought I would think of something when I saw the face. Do you have an impression?"

This sentence was asked of Iida's partner.

But the partner shook his head.

He Ma went to the police officer Ida and said, "The forensic department in Odaiba has found a suicide note."

"If you have a suicide note, you should have said it earlier." Juda Detective turned his eyes to the forensic examiner, "Let's take a look at the suicide note."

The forensic officer immediately handed the suicide note, which was flattened and protected in a plastic bag, to the police detective Iida.

Detective Juda carefully read the suicide note and sighed: "It seems that this should be treated as suicide, nothing to do with us."

He Ma was shocked: "Just because of the suicide note?"

"That's right." Detective Juda looked helpless, "If it was suicide, we wouldn't let us investigate further. As long as it is a government employee, if a suicide note is discovered, it will usually be treated as suicide."

Kawama: "Why did I suddenly see the dark side of the Japanese government?"

"Yes." Detective Juda stood up and took off the gloves he just put on, "I don't know if this guy is related to insider trading. Seeing that he is wearing a famous brand suit, he should also do it himself. Make a lot of money."

He Ma was very shocked. He didn't expect Jutian police officer to say this directly.

It seems that this kind of thing is very common.

He Ma has also heard about a lot of Japanese officials committing suicide. For example, the accountant of the Olympic Games suddenly jumped off the rails and committed suicide. At that time, the Internet was full of conspiracy theories, and I thought it was because Japanese officials took too many kickbacks for their accounts. Injustice, so the chief accountant can only die.

Dan Kazuma thought these were just incidental things that happened once in a while.

It doesn't look like that.

He Ma was really shocked, and the police officer Jutian turned his head to look at him: "You are from the mobile team. If you want to continue the investigation, no one can stop you. After all, the mobile team also has the power to enforce the law. But I don't know that you investigate. Going down will offend someone."

He Ma could see that the police officer Jutian was not willing to stop the investigation, but he was under the control of the superiors, and he could not do anything if the superiors did not allow the investigation to close the case by suicide, so he pinned his hopes on Hema. .

After all, Kazuma has offended most people in the Metropolitan Police Department, and now he has become a hero of the Metropolitan Police Department because he stopped robbers from killing indiscriminately.

He is entirely free to continue his investigation.

He Ma: "I suspect there is something wrong with this suicide note. You can see that it has been soaked in water for so long, and the paper is almost broken, but the text is still clear, it looks like it was written with a waterproof ballpoint pen."

Detective Juda shook his head: "This cannot be regarded as a suspicious point, because many of the ballpoint pens brought by the police are made of waterproof oil paint."

"Is that so?" He Ma raised his eyebrows.

"That's right, because no one knows if there will be an investigation in the rain or something. When the police manual is wet and the words written on it cannot be read clearly, it may be a mistake. You don't use ordinary A ballpoint pen?"

He Ma touched his pockets, his expression said it all.

His things are all prepared by his sister. How could Chiyoko let him bring a waterproof pen with such a stubbornness? It must be done by buying the cheapest pen at the stationery store.

Detective Juda: "Any doubts?"

He Ma: "And the forensic examiner knew it was a letter before he took it out."

"That's probably because I've seen a lot of this kind of thing, and I'll just recognize it when I touch something that seems to be a letter. It's normal." Detective Juda spread his hands, "Is there any doubt? I'll tell you all the responses you might get. It's no use finding the doubts."

It turns out that the police detective Juda is helping He Ma to confirm the doubts or not.

He Ma said a few more points, all of which were directly dismissed by Juda Interpol.

"It's useless. If this goes on, the only way to end the case is suicide." Detective Juda sighed, "I'll go back to the Metropolitan Police Department first, if you want to continue the investigation, just call me if you have anything. ."

And the horse: "OK."

Then Detective Iida led his partner away.

He and Ma crouched down next to the corpse again, looking at the face of the deceased who had begun to swell.

I only received an olive branch from the gold watch team yesterday, and today a member of the gold watch team committed suicide.

Is there a quota limit for the gold watch group, killing one will give me an empty spot?

Thinking about this, Kazuma removed the gold watch from the corpse's wrist.

The logo on the dial indicates that the watch is the same Rolex as the one that Ma received yesterday.

However, this watch doesn't look the same as the model He Ma received yesterday, maybe a Rolex model from a few years ago.

The one that He Ma received should be the latest in the last two years.

Although the watch was soaked in water, and the horse was still dripping water from the gaps in the casing when it was picked up, it was still moving.

The sound of the machinery operating inside the watch can be heard.

He Ma: "How come this watch can still walk after soaking in water?"

"The police department supplements, the mechanical watch is not afraid of soaking in water." Mayo said, "After all, it is a mechanical structure inside, and it is powered by a clockwork to move around."

Hema: "Clockwork?"

As a poor man who has never brought a high-end mechanical watch, Kazuma has never seen a watch without a battery.

"You don't know? This watch is wound at this position." Asano crouched down and pointed to a certain part of the watch.

He Ma was speechless: "Sorry, it's the first time I've seen a watch that's going to be wound."

"After all, the police department made you wear a digital watch." Asano shrugged.

He and Ma put the watch close to their ears and listened carefully to the mechanical sound inside.

One of the two forensic examiners said, "Can you give us that after checking it? This is a key piece of evidence, and it needs to be registered."

He Ma reaches out and shoves the watch into the forensic officer's hand.

He checked the body again, then stood up: "Leave the rest to the forensic department, let's go visit the family of this Kita-cho police department."

"Okay! But I suggest we take the waterway's boat to the other side first, then transfer to the subway. Going to visit by car now will make you mad."

He Ma: "What about our car? Just leave it in this parking lot?"

"Let's throw it away, now that you are so famous, you all know that the car was made up by the hero police department, and no one will steal it. Maybe someone will come to take a photo." Mayo teased.

And the horse scratched his head.

After a long run, Kazuma arrives at the house of the deceased Kitacho Police Department.

This is a new-looking one-family building, and it looks quite large.

Asano muttered in front of the door, "Why do I think the Kita-cho Police Department is making money?"

He Ma: "Don't see a big house and think the people living in it are rich, look at me!"

Asano immediately made an "ah" sound: "Indeed, the police department made up for you to live in such a big dojo, and it turned out that even the air conditioner could not be installed."

"It's still affordable, but the electricity bill can't stand it. After all, my old house is leaking everywhere."

"The police department repairs your house, what do you do in winter? Won't you freeze to death?"

"There is a kotatsu in winter." Kazuma shrugged, "My sister and I both like to sleep in the kotatsu, and we often catch colds because of this."

Asano laughed.

The door of the house in front of me suddenly opened.

The woman who came out of the door was startled: "Huh?"

And the horse pulled out the badge with skillful movement.

Woman: "Ah, it's my husband's colleague, what's the matter?"

Kawama couldn't help but glanced at Asano.

Then he asked the woman: "You don't know what happened to your husband yet?"

The woman looked inexplicable: "My husband called back last night to say that he was going to have a drink with his friends. After drinking, he went straight to the Metropolitan Police Department to sleep. What's wrong?"

He Ma: "He listen to me calmly, your husband committed suicide."

The woman widened her eyes, swayed and leaned against the door frame, then sat down along the door frame.

He Ma crouched down and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

The woman looked at Kazuma blankly: "What?"

"How are you?" and Ma repeated the question.

Besides, Asano murmured, "How could it be good? It looks very bad, right?"

Kawama: "My condolences and change. We are here to ask if there is anything unusual about the Kita-machi Police Department recently?"

Woman: "No."

“Did he mention anything about work?” He Ma asked again.

"No. He never mentions work at home."

"Then has he been drinking alcohol lately?" and Ma continued.

"No, my husband only drinks when he is socializing, and my husband is a good drinker."

He Ma raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ma Ye again.

Asano asked: "Remember your husband's recent actions carefully. It's impossible to commit suicide without warning. Especially if you've written a suicide note."

Mrs. Kitamachi immediately frowned and thought.

A moment later she suddenly said: "Ah, yes, my husband suddenly told me very seriously a few days ago that if something serious happens, he will open the safe in his study and take out the contents. He also said I would know what to do when I saw it."

He Ma's first reaction was: Good guy, you still have a safe.

This is something that has never been seen in Hema's family, because Hema's family has nothing worth putting in a safe.

What's more, no thieves dare to visit the Hema house. After all, the thieves are inextricably linked with Jidao. They all know that the Kiryu Dojo is the residence of a fierce man who has demolished two groups.

Asano: "It's now, please open the safe and take out the contents!"

"Okay." Mrs. Kitachi nodded, then struggled to stand up and staggered into the room.

We went with Ma followed and found that the porch was beautifully decorated and the floor was very smooth, so it must be waxed frequently.

Despite the unfortunate death of her husband, Mrs. Kita-machi did her job as a hostess and brought slippers for guests to her horse partner.

He Ma originally planned to step on the ground with socks on after slippers.

While they changed their shoes, the hostess stumbled down the corridor and up the stairs.

He and the horse hurriedly followed, supporting the hostess beside him.

"No, thank you." Mrs. Kitachi waved her hand, "I can do it. And the stairs in my house are too narrow for two people to go up."

He Ma looked at the stairs that were much wider than his own dojo, and said nothing.

Ms. Kitamachi went upstairs, followed by her horse.

Asano walked at the end and whispered to Kazuma: "This one-family building doesn't look cheap~IndoMTL.com~ Kazuma nodded.

This one-family building is a cement masonry structure. The interior decoration is very modern, and it looks similar to a high-end apartment.

It's safe to say the house isn't cheap.

After going up to the second floor, Kazuma saw a small sign "One husband's room" hanging on the door on the left.

He Ma: "Is the husband your son?"

"Yes, but since he went to college, he ran to rent a house near Kanda River." Mrs. Kitamachi said.

He Ma immediately opened the door and looked inside.

Asano asked, "What university did Kazuo go to?"

"He didn't do well in the test and went to a third-rate private university." Mrs. Kitachi said, "This is my husband's study, and the safe is here."

After she finished speaking, she entered the room opposite the husband's room, and Kazuma immediately followed.

The study doesn't look like a policeman's room, but like a literate study.

He Ma didn't even see the safe at first glance.

Mrs. Kitamachi went behind the desk and squatted down.

And Ma heard her twist the rotor of the safe.

He stepped forward and found the safe under the desk.

Mrs. Kitamachi quickly opened the safe, and then screamed.

He Ma hurriedly looked down to check, but found that the safe was empty.

He turned his head to look at Ma Ye.

Asano said: "It seems that the North Town Police Department is very likely to commit suicide. It should be that the person who killed him stole the killer he prepared."

He Ma nodded: "Indeed."

At this time, Mrs. Kitachi asked, "Do you mean that my husband was killed?"

He Ma: "It should be like this. Please carefully recall what he said to you recently. Maybe there are clues."
