Chapter 587: Both Brothers Died

"Ah! I remembered it!"

Just as Maori Kogoro was speaking, Takagi Wataru suddenly clapped his hands and shouted to Hakuba Matsu with a look of doubt,

"Officer Hakuba, I remember now that this Mrs. Kanako is the person who reported another case before!"

"what?!"

As soon as Takagi Shigeru said this, everyone present was suddenly shocked.

It turns out that Hitomi Kanako is the reporter of another case, but the other case is not...

"Takagi, didn't the other case say that the wife came home and found her husband dead? In that case, could the deceased in the other case be..."

Miwako Sato asked Takagi Wataru hurriedly.

"Um,"

Takagi Wataru nodded seriously.

"I just remembered that the deceased in the other case seemed to be Mrs. Hitomi Kanako's husband, Mr. Hitomi Takehiko."

The atmosphere of the scene became solemn again, and even weird.

The two brothers died almost at the same time. Was this a premeditated death or was it really an accident destined by fate?

"Ugh!"

Maori Kogoro sighed at this time, looked at Baiba Song, and said in a deep voice with a complicated expression,

"Now that things have come to this, Hakuba, I can tell you about my client. He is Mr. Hitomi Takehiko, the younger brother of Hitomi Matsuichiro."

"He suspected that Hitomi Matsuichiro was using his name to defraud people, so he asked me to investigate the evidence."

Did the younger brother hire a detective because he suspected that his older brother was pretending to be him to defraud others?

Bai Masong suddenly felt that things seemed to be getting more complicated.

.................................

A few dozen minutes later

Hitomi

After joining forces with Shiratori Jinsaburo's team, Hakuba Matsu and Sato Miwako joined the reconnaissance on this side.

"You mean, at 1:45 pm, when you came back from outside and saw your husband was murdered, you immediately reported the case, right?"

Holding the police manual in her hand, Miwako Sato asked a well-maintained middle-aged woman sitting on the sofa opposite her.

The woman sitting opposite her is the sister-in-law of Matsuichiro Hitomi, and the wife of his younger brother Takehiko Hitomi - Kanako Hitomi.

"Yes,"

Hitomi Kanako said affirmatively, and then looked at Shiratori Renzaburo who was standing next to Sato Miwako.

"Officer, this question has already been asked by Officer White Bird before."

"Ok, I know,"

Miwako Sato tapped her police manual with the pen in her hand.

"I just want to ask again."

"Oh, good officer."

Hitoshi Kanako nodded slightly. She looked a little haggard, just like a housewife who lost her husband should look.

Bai Basong carefully looked at Kanako Hitoshi's facial expression, narrowed his eyes, and asked her,

"Mrs. Renjian, I would like to ask you, where did you go during this time at noon?"

"this......"

Kanako Hitomi glanced at Shiratori Renzaburo beside her.

Shiratori Jinzaburo pointed at the white horse pine and whispered to Hitoshi Kanako,

"This is Officer Bai Ma, the head of our third department."

Seeing this, Hitoshi Kanako did not hesitate and went straight back to the question of Hakuba Matsu.

"I went to Beika-cho."

Rice flower town?

Sato Miwako and Hakuba Matsu looked at each other and both knew the deep meaning in each other's eyes.

"What did you do in Beika-cho?"

Miwako Sato still held the police manual in her hand and tapped the pen again and again.

Hitomi Kanako seemed a little confused by the reactions of Hakubamatsu and Sato Miwako.

She had said the same thing to Shiratori Renzaburo before, and she didn't see any different reaction from Shiratori Renzaburo.

She tilted her head, her face full of confusion.

"Excuse me, is there any problem with me going to Beika Town?"

"You're going to find someone to meet Matsuichiro, right?"

Bai Masong patted Sato Miwako's shoulder, went on stage himself, and without beating around the bush, spoke directly to Hitoshi Kanako in a deep voice.

"Yes."

Seeing that Kanako had nothing to hide, he told her the purpose of his trip.

"I made an appointment with Brother Matsuichiro to meet in Beika Town, but when the time came, I didn't see him, and I couldn't get through to him on the phone, so I came back."

Kanako Hitomi's words made Hakuba Matsu, Sato Miwako, and Shiratori Rensaburo look at each other again.

They were all wondering how much truth and falsehood this man said to Mrs. Kanako.

Bai Basong narrowed his eyes, hit the ball straight again, and said to Hitomi Kanako in a low voice with a serious face,

"So, Mrs. Hitomi, did you know that your husband's brother, Mr. Hitomi Matsuichiro, fell to his death at the Beika Hotel today?"

"Wha, what?!"

Hitoshi Kanako looked very shocked.

She widened her eyes and looked at Bai Ma Song, as if to confirm the truth of the news.

After thinking that it was impossible for the police to lie, an expression of sadness and disbelief slowly appeared on her face.

"Brother Song Yilang, he really..."

"That's right,"

Sato Miwako nodded with a serious expression.

"Hitomi Matsuichiro fell from the 15th floor of the Beika Hotel at 12:40 p.m. today and died on the spot."

"So, we need to conduct a routine questioning of you."

"Because we found out that Hitomi Matsuichiro's last phone call was with you."

"What did you say to Hitomi Matsuichiro during that phone call?"

Sato Miwako's words had a great impact on Kanako.

She didn't react at first, but her husband and his elder brother died one after another within one day, and the probability of the time difference was no more than an hour.

Moreover, because of a phone call with his eldest brother, he has become a suspect of the police.

"police officer,"

Hitoshi Kanako looked gloomy, and looked at Sato Miwako and Shiraba Matsu.

"Are you doubting me?"

"No,"

Bai Masong walked to the sofa next to Kanako Hitoshi, sat down, crossed his hands, and looked at her quietly.

"We don't doubt that you killed Hitomi Matsuichiro."

"Because according to the information we have so far, Hitomi Matsuichirō's death was an accident."

"I said, we are just routine inquiries, please answer our questions."
