Chapter 245 There is no trace
"What! Mr. Wise! You solved the murderer's alibi!"

Hearing Gao Yuan's words, Gao Mushe said in surprise immediately, and immediately asked, "What's going on?"

Regarding this, Gao Yuan took a moment and began to explain:

"Actually, this method is very simple. You police have been deceived by the deceased."

"By... the dead..."

"Cheated?"

Hearing what Gao Yuan said, Takagi She and Takayama Ayase were both very surprised and said that they didn't understand what Gao Yuan said at all. Regarding this, Takagi She further confirmed:
"Mr. Wise, what did you just say—we were deceived by, the deceased?"

After emphasizing the word "dead", Takagi Tsubasa obviously felt unbelievable.

"That's right, it's the dead."

Gao Yuan said confidently, "The police made a mistake when the deceased died, so naturally you couldn't find the loophole in the suspect's alibi - because, from the very beginning, you were deceived by the deceased!"

"Hey?"

It seemed that they understood Gao Yuan's meaning, but Takagi Shepherd and Takayama Ayase obviously couldn't accept this statement, so they asked further:

"what is the problem!"

"To put it simply, the deceased used some means to make you misjudge the time of death of the deceased."

Gao Yuan said, "From the itinerary of the deceased on the day of the death described by Officer Takagi just now, I found an interesting thing - the time when the deceased's ex-boyfriend came to quarrel with the deceased, the time to eat bento at noon, and the time to eat cake in the afternoon, They are nine o'clock in the morning, twelve o'clock in the noon, and three o'clock in the afternoon. These three times are exactly three hours apart."

Hearing this, Takagi took out the police handbook, flipped through the contents of the record, confirmed this, then nodded and said:
"That's right, but what's the problem?"

"It's a big problem!"

Gao Yuan said, "Just now I asked Officer Takagi how the police could accurately determine the time of death to around [-]:[-] p.m. You mentioned that the scope was narrowed down based on the degree of digestion of the deceased's gastrointestinal contents. Also That is to say, the forensic doctor judges the time of death by comparing the food that the deceased ate at different times that day, and the final state in the stomach and intestines, right?"

"That's right, the forensic doctor's food residue in the stomach and intestines of the deceased can match the facts we have investigated. There can be no problem with such a result!"

Takagi said puzzledly.

Hearing this, Gao Yuan smiled lightly, and finally expressed his thoughts:

"Of course, the following is just my speculation, and there is no evidence at present—I think the time of death of the deceased was not seven o'clock in the evening, but four o'clock in the afternoon!"

Gao Yuan said lightly, then looked at Gao Mushe, and added:

"You asked me just now, right? Just looking at the changes in the corpse, the time of death of the deceased was between four o'clock in the evening and eight o'clock in the evening, so the death of the deceased at four o'clock does not violate this point."

"Hey? But why? How to explain the degree of digestion of the stomach and intestines of the deceased?"

Takagi asked in doubt.

Facing Gao Mushe's question, Gao Yuan also said smoothly:
"About this point, it's easy to explain-that is, the time of the deceased's eating twice was also advanced by three hours?"

With that said, Gao Yuan explained:
"At nine o'clock in the morning, when the ex-boyfriend came to the deceased to quarrel, the deceased ate a real bento. At twelve o'clock in the lunch break, the deceased ate a cake disguised as a bento. And at three o'clock in the afternoon, the deceased ate This cake shop just ordered the cake set, and took photos and uploaded 'twitter', but did not eat the cake. Finally, at [-]:[-] p.m., when I got home, I was killed by the murderer - if this is the case, is it also a perfect fit? What about the results of the autopsy!"

"You mean to say..."

Hearing this, Takagi Tsutomu understood a little.

"The deceased deliberately moved the time of the two meals forward by three hours, and deceived everyone!"

Gao Yuan said.

"The deceased had the habit of uploading photos of the food to Twitter before each meal, so you think that the time to post the photos is exactly the time to eat. But this is not true, because the deceased can take pictures in advance Take the photo, and then wait until the time needed to upload it, so the time to upload the photo may not necessarily be the time for the dead to eat!"

"But, if that's the case, wouldn't it mean that Zhenyou..."

Hearing this, Takayama Ayase couldn't believe Takato's speculation.

And Takato followed Takayama Ayase's words and continued:
"That's right, if my idea is correct, it can only mean one thing - Mayu Sawaguchi's death was planned by herself! In other words, the deceased wanted to commit suicide, but she had a reason why she couldn't commit suicide. So she Find the murderer and ask him to kill herself. In return, she decided to create an alibi for the murderer!"

"How could such a thing happen! It's simply unreasonable!"

Takayama Ayase couldn't accept this fact anyway, and strongly retorted.

"Mr. Gao Shan, please calm down. I just expressed my speculation. There is no evidence at present. The next step is to look at the police investigation."

Gao Yuan couldn't help but comfort him, and then said to Gao Mushe:

"However, if this is the case, there is actually only one candidate for the murderer—that is, Mr. Adachi Kazuo who went to the deceased's office at nine o'clock in the morning on the day of the crime. I think he should have been there at four o'clock in the afternoon Alibi. Moreover, the deceased's 'Twitter' account posted a photo of the dinner at [-]pm, which obviously could only have been posted by the murderer holding the deceased's mobile phone."

"Okay, I will investigate in this direction immediately!"

Hearing this, Takagi Shepherd immediately took action and bid farewell to the two of them for the time being.

Now, only Takato and Takayama Ayase are still sitting here——

"Then, Mr. Gao Shan, I have a question to ask you—the person you mentioned, the person Professor Sawaguchi has always liked, really died more than ten years ago? That person, you should Get to know each other too!"

At this moment, Gao Yuan looked at the absent-minded Takayama Ayase, and asked the question that he had been wanting to ask since just now.

"Why do you ask about this?"

Lowering her head, Takayama Ayase asked in a low voice.

"It's just a feeling that if Professor Sawaguchi really chose to die, it might have something to do with that person, so I have this question."

Gao Yuan said lightly, and then asked the most critical question:
"That person, what's his name?"

He lowered his head and remained silent for a long time, seemingly hesitant, but in the end, Takayama Ayase gave Takato the answer:

"His name is Taro Asami, and he was a famous figure in the school back then. Mayu is two years younger than him, but because he is the same mentor, he often does experiments with him. Over time, Mayu fell in love with this senior. ...In the end, I fell in love like this for the rest of my life..."

Feeling helpless, Takayama Ayase said sadly:
"Sensible detective, maybe your speculation is right. But I really don't know about Asami Taro. Everything was just told to me by Mayu. After all, that person has never been seen since graduation. And The files about Asami Taro back then were also lost in a fire many years ago..."
