Chapter 1037 Business War Survival Strategy
“There is some truth to this.”
Soon, Kogoro Mori spoke up to support Karasawa's statement.
"Although there is no conclusive evidence at present, it is true that if the purpose was just to sneak into the wedding, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. This is a public place, and many people come here to hold events. The police can at most restrict the entry and exit list of Hall 3. If the murderer's purpose was to attack the newlyweds, in order to break into the house and get the guest list, just to kill a guest today and sneak into the scene, this plan would have too many twists and turns, and it would be easy to have accidents."
The more complex the plan, the more likely it is that the failure of one link will lead to a series of failures.
This is not an ordinary suspect, he is a villain who has killed six people. If you say he has no criminal experience, no one in Beika Town will admit it.
"To silence someone? So, the murderer was indeed at the scene?" Shiratori Renzaburo said ambiguously, his eyes already locked on the groom Ping Zhenghui.
There is no other reason, the groom's role in the whole case is becoming more and more suspicious as everyone analyzes it.
Since the vicious words left by the escaped robber were meant to remember the hatred, when the threatening letter was sent, everyone would assume that he wanted to attack or even kill Ping Zhenghui who had prevented him from committing the crime.
But if Ping Zhenghui himself played a role in this case, then the meaning of these words would be different.
Could it be that the two people had a disagreement, one of them was hurt by Ping Zhenghui, and decided to reveal Ping Zhenghui's identity at the wedding?
Reiko Masuto is definitely a grown-up lady. Her parents would immediately decide to buy a property for her overseas if her daughter faced any personal threat.
If Ping Zhenghui was really an accomplice of the robbers, or even one of the robbers, this would be an ideal path to success, so ideal that he would abandon his accomplices and betray them...
Megure Juzo noticed the subtle atmosphere, but looking at the bewildered bride herself, he knew this was not the right place for discussion, so he raised his hand to interrupt their discussion.
"The police's case handling procedures will not interfere with the citizens' decision. These details are what we need to discuss among ourselves. Mr. Ping, Ms. Yihu, no matter what the situation is, it is basically certain that the robber himself must be at the wedding scene. Do you really want to insist on continuing the wedding?"
This is a murderer who has killed 6, oh no, 7 people. The danger of being in the same space with such a person is self-evident.
It is precisely because of the power of the Yihu family that this wedding should be called off.
At the wedding of the Yihu family's daughter, although some of the guests were just friends of the two young people, most of them were wealthy businessmen and high-ranking officials who had dealings with the Yihu family. If anything went wrong, the impact would be very bad.
Although Ping Zhenghui looked a little flustered, he raised his objection without hesitation when he heard the suggestion to cancel the wedding.
"Although what you said is indeed very likely, there is still no solid evidence that the criminal has come here, right?" He spoke in a calm voice, "This is a very important day for us, and the VIP who has already made time for us can't stand this kind of back and forth..."
Tang Ze glanced at his expression, then looked at Conan and found an expression similar to his own on the other's face.
It is not difficult to see that Ping Zhenghui really wants to get married.
It's not that he wants to marry Masuto Reiko, but he really wants to marry the daughter of the Masuto family.
In addition to emphasizing the importance of the wedding, he also kept emphasizing the dignity and extraordinary status of today's guests. It seemed that he was very clear about what his marriage meant.
This is their wedding, and also an opportunity for him to appear as the son-in-law of the Yihu family and possibly get involved in the family business in the future. His performance today may very likely affect his future position in his wife's family, and he is unwilling to give up.
Masuto Reiko raised her head and whispered, "Masaaki, as long as you explain the situation clearly, it doesn't matter. Everyone knows how we got together. Even if you encounter threats because of this, it is a credit to your courage..."
"Lizi, this is a ceremony that we have decided on for a long time. I don't want to give up on it because of an illusory threat." Perhaps because his emotions had calmed down, Ping Zhenghui immediately adjusted his expression. When he embraced his fiancée, only deep affection remained on his face. "I can save you at that time, so I won't be afraid of such a small threat to your safety. Trust me, okay?"
"Zhenghui..."
As the newlyweds talked, they entered into their private and sweet time, staring at each other as if no one was around.
Tang Ze looked at the woman's IQ dropping as she was obviously moved again, and he somewhat understood why Ping Zhenghui was able to stand out and show his brilliance in this track.
It is not difficult to infer the methods of this vicious robbery pair from the situation of Reiko Masuto.
I'm afraid their strategy has always been for Ping Zhenghui to use his daily identity to contact wealthy families, rely on interpersonal relationships to enter other people's homes openly, inquire and scout the area, plan routes, and understand the family's schedule and action plan.
After finally setting a date for the action, he found accomplices to complete the burglary and robbery.
In other words, Ping Zhenghui was very good at building close relationships with people in a short period of time, and he was so familiar with them that he could even visit other people's homes. Yido Reiko had even become his girlfriend before the incident.
There are sufficient reasons to kill the victim and set the fire, because their method of committing the crime is actually similar to the pattern of acquaintances committing the crime to a certain extent. He and the victim's family must have had a strong interpersonal connection in the recent period. If the other party is allowed to survive, the police screening will definitely focus on him.
As long as the victim dies, a character such as a friend or employee who has been in contact with the victim in recent days will not immediately come into the police's attention.
...With this calculation, it is reasonable for Ping Zhenghui to cross the river and then destroy the bridge and let his accomplices kill him.
No matter how you look at it, he was the planner. He was the one who left the fingerprints. He was the one responsible for the murders. His accomplices were useless except for helping to break in, pick locks and set fires, like vodka.
If it weren't for Vodka's excellent ability to read the air, and if he didn't obediently recognize him as his big brother, it would be understandable that he would have a short life.
"Inspector Megure! Here are gifts for the bride and groom."
Just when the police couldn't help wanting to interrupt the annoying scene before their eyes, the door of the preparation room was pushed open.
Megure Jusan turned around and saw that it was a police officer from the Investigation Division. He frowned and said, "The situation is special now. Why are you sending this thing over?"
"We've already checked the contents. Mainly, the staff member who delivered it said they wanted the bride and groom to take a look at it now," explained the officer who walked in.
Hearing him say this, Ping Zhenghui took the gift directly and began to unwrap the packaging.
Everyone present, except the newcomer, frowned again.
It is even more suspicious that they are still so actively dismantling unknown objects even though they know they may be facing a serious threat to their personal safety.
"Ah, it's from Shimizu." Seeing what's in the gift box, Taira Masahiro smiled and showed it to Masutori Reiko, "It should be the video you made for us..."
"We both have an active website, which is located at a hot spring hotel. Many enthusiasts hang out there." Masuto Reiko picked up the handheld camera in the gift box. "We also told them about our marriage, and we plan to hold a party at the hot spring tomorrow after the banquet is over..."
"Netizens?" Megure Jusan looked strange, "Could it be that you invited netizens to your wedding?"
"That won't happen. It would be very troublesome to ask our online friends to prepare dresses and come offline. But we have invited the administrator there..." explained Reiko Masuto.
Knowing that there would be death threats, she still went to organize a social event filled with strangers. Should we say that this girl is really bold?
"Qing Shui is also a friend we met online. When we chatted later, we found out that she lives in the same apartment as us, so we have a good relationship." Ping Zhenghui smiled, "This is a video she shot for us. She wanted to play it at the hotel party."
He also revealed his offline address online and even became friends with offline netizens...
Almost all the policemen couldn't help but twitch their mouths.
"No wonder she was targeted." Conan couldn't help but mutter, "This Miss Yihu is too weak to be vigilant. The Yihu family is also a wealthy family, right? Don't they give their daughter any safety education?"
It was already imprudent enough to become a couple with a guy like Hei Zhenghui who had a suspicious background.
She went to live with her boyfriend whom she had just met. She could just assume that the Yihu family was more free in this regard and did not restrict her. But how could she directly reveal her real address to a stranger on the Internet?
It's not an exaggeration to say that he lives by luck, or is this also a training strategy of the Yihu family? Survival of the fittest, right?
"If she hadn't been so careless, she might not have survived." Tang Ze said, "If we hadn't been boyfriend and girlfriend, I think someone with Ping Zhenghui's personality..."
Tang Ze did not elaborate on the rest of the words. After all, although Ping Zhenghui was 99% likely to have a problem, it had not been confirmed yet, and it would be a bit rude to make a direct judgment.
But Conan already understood what he meant.
A guy who would choose to carefully plan and commit murder and arson for money must have a very problematic character.
You can tell something just by looking at his stubborn look and his refusal to give up the wedding.
If it weren't for the fact that Reiko Masuto had a weak sense of vigilance and was not aware of her boyfriend's suspicious behavior at all, and looked so easy to deceive, it would be a question whether Taira Masahiro would choose to let her go and stab her accomplices in the back.
"How can it not be considered a blessing in disguise?" Tang Ze concluded.
After thinking about it, Conan felt that it made some sense: "..."
While the two of them were whispering, the police had already briefly watched the video with the newcomer.
The content of the video is not complicated. Miss Shimizu, their neighbor, filmed their daily date at Dorobiga Park.
If there is anything eye-catching about the content, besides the fact that Ping Zhenghui placed the house key on the mailbox at the door of the apartment at the beginning, it is Ping Zhenghui himself, who had his arm bandaged throughout the whole process.
"Is this the injury you got from the case? It's a broken wrist?" Shiratori Renzaburo looked at Ping Zhenghui in the picture, "It's wrapped very tightly..."
He said this, but his expression was strange.
Well, plaster is indeed a common fixation method for fracture recovery, but judging from the date of the video, it was shot more than a month ago.
From this, it can be inferred that it was about five months after Ping Zhenghui was injured.
It is a bit unusual to keep the plaster board fixed in this way for the fifth month. Plaster is a very airtight fixing method. Maintaining this state for a long time is not conducive to recovery.
Thinking of the murder weapon found in the attempted robbery at the Yihu family, and the news that the fingerprint left by the suspect was confirmed to be on the ring finger of his left hand...
"Is that so?" Conan asked.
"Yeah, this way I have an excuse not to leave fingerprints on my left hand." Tang Ze nodded.
"We can also take the opportunity to show Miss Masuto how hard we work for her." Even Mao Lilan joined in their whispers.
"Could it be that the Yihu family's strategy towards the heir is really to let them do what they want, and the one who survives to the end is the heir?" Tang Ze touched his chin and considered this myth.
Although Reiko Masuto is indeed the only daughter in his family, there is no shortage of cousins in the family.
If you think about it carefully, this business war survival strategy seems to be really reasonable in Beika Town...
"It took a long time for Zhenghui to recover from his injury. I moved to his apartment because I was worried that his injury would affect his life." Masuto Reiko, who didn't know that she was lucky to be a fool, smiled and replied, "Fortunately, he recovered successfully in the end, and his hand function was not affected much. I am relieved."
"Oh, oh..." The police officers present could not respond except to nod.
"We do have the habit of putting our keys in the mailbox. But our mailbox has a combination lock, is that okay?" Masuto Reiko seemed not to notice their reaction, turned her head and laughed, "I am a bit lazy, I admit it."
Shiratori Renzaburo pointed at the small screen on the DV and said, "But your mailbox passwords have been completely recorded by Miss Shimizu... Although it's not very clear from here, if you show it on the big screen at the party..."
Masuto Reiko rewound the progress back to the beginning, read it carefully for a while, and nodded slowly: "Oh! Yes, this also needs to be edited. I will talk to Shimizu about it later..."
Megure Juzo did not say anything, but made some obscure gestures to his subordinates.
When we arrest Taira Masahiro, we have to isolate Masutomo Reiko. I feel like this girl is not very smart...
