Chapter 504: The Death Letter Incident

On the evening of Monday, August 18th, Hayato Nanjo's office was on the sixth floor of a six-story building in Mihuacho.

Mao Li took a look at the paper handed by Mrs. Nantiao, and said in surprise: "I will come to take your life at ten o'clock tonight, and I will join the death circle. This is..."

"This is the notice letter from the death circle." Mrs. Nantiao said, "I found it in my husband's mailbox this morning."

Maori asked, "Did you call the police on this matter?"

"There is no need for that." Nanjo Hayato came in, "This kind of thing is a prank when you think about it."

Mrs. Nanjo said: "But, my husband..."

"Needless to say, there must be a limit to willfulness." Hayato Nanjo said.

Mrs. Nanjo said, "I'm very sorry."

Hayato Nanjo said: "Okay, Detective Mori, you guys can go back now."

Mori said, "But, Mr. Nanjo, Mrs. Nanjo is worried about your safety."

"Even if what this threatening letter says is true, I can protect myself. Please go back." Hayato Nanjo said, "Also, Yoshino, you can go back too." After finishing speaking, he left.

Mrs. Nanjo said, "I'm very sorry, Detective Mori."

"It's okay, it's 8:25, and there's still more than an hour before the time on the notice," Maori asked, "Mrs. Nanjo, where will Mr. Nanjo go next?"

Mrs. Nanjo said: "It will be in this office. There is an important fax at about ten o'clock tonight. My husband must read it."

Mao Li asked, "What kind of fax, why did it arrive so late at ten o'clock in the evening?"

Satomi Yoshino said with a smile: "It's the outline of Mr. Nanjo's next film script. As a screenwriter, we sleep during the day and go to work at night."

Maori asked, "Oh, who knows about this?"

"A lot of members know about it." Mrs. Nanjo said, and then asked in surprise, "Detective Maori, what do you mean to say that this notice letter was sent by our insider?"

"Only in this way can we explain why the announcement letter is exactly ten o'clock in the evening." Mao Li said.

Mrs. Nanjo asked, "So, Detective Mori, do you know who this person is?"

"I don't know that yet," Molly laughed, "but I have a safe way."

"You mean to call them all up? But I don't want to find out this person," Mrs. Nanjo asked, "and what if he is not from our club?"

"Well, this building has only one exit. I'll keep an eye on the opposite side of this building." Mao Li said, "As long as he appears in the death circle, I will definitely catch him."

"Is it true? That's really great." Mrs. Nanjo said gratefully. ...

A hamburger restaurant opposite Hayato Nanjo's office building.

At 8:40 p.m., Yamazaki rushed over after receiving a call from Maori about an incident.

"This is my assistant Yamazaki." Mori said, "This is Mrs. Nanjo, Ms. Yoshino Satomi." Then he handed the notice letter to Yamazaki, "Mr. Nanjo is in the upstairs office opposite."

"It's an old-fashioned building." Yamazaki said, "Ms. Nanjo, Miss Satomi, do you have cameras?

Please take a few more and put them in various corners of the building. "

Mrs. Nantiao said: "Then if you scare away the Death God..."

"If you don't come to the death circle like this, then you should quickly spend some money and move to a building with better equipment." Yamazaki said, and then saw that Mrs. Nanjo was still hesitating and asked, "Mrs. Nanjo, in your heart , Is the life of your husband Mr. Nanjo important, or is it important to find this Death God? You don’t want an inheritance, do you?”

"What did you say?" Mrs. Nanjo yelled.

"Sorry, if I'm wrong, please forgive me." Yamazaki said, "Please arrange it quickly." At the same time, I thought to myself, when I mentioned Mr. Nanjo, I felt that the surrounding suddenly became dangerous. Mrs. Nanjo and Mrs. Nanjo Who are these two, Ms. Yoshino Satomi, who have been planning to kill Mr. Nanjo for a while, so that when they heard his name, they had a reflexive reaction, and immediately thought of killing him in their hearts? Fortunately, it's not like it's been numb for a long time, and it's not that I don't care about killing people, and so on. It seems that this matter can be resolved quickly, so I just go back to help, um, let's start with Miss Satomi let's start. Thinking of this, Yamazaki said to Yoshino Satomi, "Miss Satomi, can you please take me around to see the terrain."

Yoshino Satomi said, "Okay."

As he walked, Yamazaki asked, "Miss Satomi, why does Mr. Nanjo stay in the office until ten o'clock, does anyone know this?"

"Detective Maori also asked this question." Yoshino Satomi said, "We are waiting for the outline of the script of the next movie. Our screenwriter sleeps during the day and only goes to work at night. Many members of the company know it."

"It turned out to be you," Yamazaki said, "I'm very busy today, so I just said it directly." Then he asked, "Miss Yoshino Satomi, how are you going to kill Mr. Nanjo Hayato?"

"What, what," Yoshino Satomi asked in surprise, "What are you talking about?"

"Intuition." Yamazaki smiled, "My intuition told me, so don't quibble, and even if you don't say it, I will keep an eye on you. You have no chance to commit crimes today."

"Okay, I'm convinced." Yoshino Satomi smiled bitterly, and then asked, "Is this natural? Or how did you get it?"

"Some beasts who are full will live in peace with people, but they will turn hostile immediately when they are hungry." Yamazaki said with a smile, "By the way, remember to keep it secret for me."

"Not many people can do it." Satomi Yoshino admired, and then said, "Yes, I posted the notice letter in the death circle, and I am also planning to kill Hayato Nanjo, but first is Detective Mori, and then you , it seems that I am destined not to kill him."

Yamazaki said: "Tell me how you want to kill Mr. Nanjo first, and then I will teach you a way to let you breathe."

"Well, I will help you gain experience as an assistant." Yoshino Satomi said, "I prepared a tape with a gunshot, a pistol with a silencer, and a trap to confuse time. I'm going to stick the tape on the glass to look like a human silhouette, and tie one end of the fishing line around the light switch and hook it on the elevator." Then I asked, "Mr. Assistant, what can you think of?"

"As long as the elevator is running, the light will be turned on, and the tape will be torn off at the same time, it looks like a person is leaving." Yamazaki said, "That is to say, you are going to kill Mr. Nanjo in advance, and then go downstairs Join up with the others so you're downstairs when the gunshots from the tape go off, and you have an alibi."

"That's right." Yoshino Satomi said, "Even if they discover this method, there is no evidence that I did it. It's a pity that Mr. Mori asked us to get together, which made it difficult for me to do it."

"You are wrong. Having a silencer does not mean that there is no sound. It is night now. Even if the pistol has a silencer, its gunshot is still very likely to be heard downstairs," Yamazaki asked, "At that time you Where else do you want to go?"

Yoshino Satomi thought about it and said, "I haven't really tried this."

Yamazaki asked: "Also, the smoke reaction, how do you want to solve it?"

Yoshino Satomi said: "I will dress up as in the death circle, and throw the costume and pistol in the prop room after I finish."

Yamazaki said: "The police will definitely find out the costumes and pistols, and then they only need to count the number of costumes to know that the murderer is an insider, because he knows where the costumes are. The pistol that was not taken away means that the murderer is still at the scene. So you can't take the murder weapon away."

Yoshino Satomi said: "So what, I used to wear the costume in the death array not long ago, and the gun and muffler were bought from informal channels abroad, and the police couldn't find out at all."

Yamazaki said: "It seems that the plan is good."

Yoshino Satomi said: "Of course, in the past three years, my footprints have been everywhere in this building, and my fingerprints have been found on various props in the prop room,"

Yamazaki asked: "Three years? Was there any hatred between you three years ago?"

Satomi Yoshino said: "I have a boyfriend named Kitano, who turned out to be a supporting role in the movie "The God of Death" filmed three years ago. Originally, a double was used for the speeding scene shot that day, but the double was never available. Come on, and then Hayato Nanjo proposed to go directly without a substitute, and Kitano was inspired to go up."

Yamazaki said: "Then Mr. Kitano died in an accident during the performance."

Yoshino Satomi said: "Yes, when I was sorting out the relics, I found that Kitano said in his diary that the director planned to train him to become a new generation of Shinigami. So I suspect that Kitano's accident was done by Nanjo Hayato, in order to get rid of Kitano , and hit the director together, the director is responsible. Then, I found a job in Hayato Nanjo's agency. Until the celebration of the completion of the film "New Challenge in the Death Array" more than a month ago After the reception, I got the words out of the mouth of the drunk Hayato Nanjo, it turned out that he told the substitute not to go that day, and he even tampered with it on the motorcycle."

"I see." Yamazaki asked, "By the way, does Mr. Nanjo know about your relationship with Mr. Kitano?"

Yoshino Satomi said: "You should know."

"Knowing that you are still here?" Yamazaki sighed, "Really, I don't know what to say."

"My salary is low." Yoshino Satomi laughed.

Yamazaki asked, "Okay, how about I introduce you to a high-paying career?"

Yoshino Satomi was silent for a while, then smiled and said, "Okay."

"Very well, it seems that you have figured it out." Yamazaki said, and then asked, "Are you a manager? What are your strengths?"

Yoshino Satomi said: "I used to be an action actor."

Yamazaki said with a smile: "That's really great. Mihua TV never has too many action actors. Go there."

"Mihua TV? Its period dramas are all action movies, which is very suitable." Satomi Yoshino smiled, "Well, I will report your name when the time comes." Then he asked, "Who should I go to?"

"Mr. Atsushi Omura from the props department, oh no, if you go to him, it might cause discord in their family," Yamazaki said with a smile, "You should go to Mrs. Yumi Omura from the advertising department."

"This is Mr. Omura Jun's wife, right?" Yoshino Satomi said with a smile, "I see, thank you."

"You're welcome." Yamazaki said, "Okay, let me teach you a way to vent your anger. You call the media and let them come over."

Yoshino Satomi asked: "Isn't this helping Nanjo become famous?"

"No, no," Yamazaki asked with a smile, "You said, if the time passes and Mr. Nanjo is not visited by the death circle, what will Mr. Nanjo say?"

"Of course I will be proud to say that the real Death Array is afraid of him, the real Death Array." Satomi Yoshino said, "Oh, that's how it is." Then he laughed, "Just say that he asked me to write it, it's If he wrote and directed a farce, then he will lose all face." Then he said, "No, not only that, as long as I want to expose the crimes of Hayato Nanjo, no, I can't do it alone, I remember that at the beginning The director is Tadao Ohno, if he is brought together, it is very likely that Nanjo will be unemployed, yes, if Nanjo is unemployed, unemployment should be more painful than death for him.”

"It seems that you have found a better way of revenge." Yamazaki said with a smile.

"If it works." Yoshino Satomi said, "Anyway, thank you."

Yamazaki smiled and said, "You're welcome."...
