I just wanted to cultivate immortality, but I was forced to open a harem

"Sawamura..." Shinomiya Kaguya naturally knew Eriri. They were both members of the upper class, and Eriri was also Hayashi Kazuma's childhood sweetheart.

"Why are you asking me? Can I kill Sawamura?" Shinomiya Kaguya sneered contemptuously.

Yukinoshita Yukino said slowly: "After the on-site investigation, we found that Miss Sawamura was shot with a bow and arrow, and the arrow used by the murderer was the standard arrow used in Kyudo."

"Ha, so that's how it is. No wonder you doubted me." After hearing what Yukinoshita Yukino said, Shinomiya Kaguya suddenly realized and immediately showed a sarcastic expression.

Kaguya Shinomiya's greatest talent is Kyudo.

When she was in junior high school, Kaguya Shinomiya won the championship in the individual competition of the national competition. In the decisive stage of that game, Kaguya Shinomiya hit the bull's eye ten times in a row, and no other high school competition that year exceeded this record.

After Shinomiya Kaguya entered high school, she continued to participate in the Kyudo Club. In her second year of high school, she had already reached the fourth degree in Kyudo.

According to Kaguya Shinomiya herself, the reason why she can shoot accurately is that she accidentally shot an ideal arrow when she was in the first grade of junior high school. Since then, Kaguya Shinomiya has formed muscle memory and can almost hit the target every time when practicing Kyudo.

Not only that, Yukinoshita Yukino also knew that the bow used by Kaguya Shinomiya in the Kyudo Club when she was in high school had a pulling force of 15kg, which is the same as the pulling force of the bow used by ordinary male high school students.

In addition, it is said that this person is also very knowledgeable in martial arts such as naginata, aikido, and judo...

Yukinoshita Yukino couldn't help but think of the speculation about the serial murders and what Kasumigaoka Utaha said to her yesterday - "The murderer's strength is far beyond that of a normal woman, he may be a man."

And right now, there is a woman who is as strong as an ordinary man and is good at archery...

Chapter 334 Interrogation

Shinomiya Kaguya asked: "Do you suspect that I killed Sawamura Spencer Eriri?"

"I didn't say that. I was just asking according to the rules." Yukinoshita Yukino still maintained a polite smile.

"Then I want to ask you, why do you think I am a suspect? Do you think I am the kind of woman who is bored enough to kill someone?" Shinomiya Kaguya asked directly.

Yukinoshita Yukino shook her head and said, "Of course not, but as police officers, we need to investigate the case and confirm your innocence, so we hope you can cooperate."

"Hmph, if you want to ask, just ask now. As the president of the Shinomiya Group, my time is very precious." Shinomiya Kaguya crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"Thank you." Yukinoshita Yukino nodded in greeting and then began to interrogate.

"What was your schedule last night?"

"I went to attend the new product launch of the core technology company of the Shinomiya Group from 19:30 to 22:30 in the evening." Shinomiya Kaguya replied.

"What happens after that?" asked Yukinoshita Yukino.

"I drove to the beach for a ride for a while." said Kaguya Shinomiya.

"By the sea..." Yukinoshita Yukino frowned and fell into thought. After a moment, he asked again: "What about your license plate number?"

"xxxxxx..." Shinomiya Kaguya reported the name of her car.

"How long did you take the ride? Is there any evidence or witnesses who can testify to that?"

Shinomiya Kaguya said confidently: "I have a dashcam in my car."

"What happens next?" Yukinoshita Yukino asked again.

"After I left home, I returned to my residence."

"What did you do when you returned home?" Yukinoshita Yukino continued to ask.

"Take a shower, read a book, and rest." Shinomiya Kaguya spread her hands, "I haven't gone out since then. The servants at home can testify to this, and there are surveillance cameras installed in my house."

This flawless answer left Yukinoshita Yukino unable to find fault with it.

"Please give us a copy of the dashcam and the surveillance video in the villa later."

Shinomiya Kaguya nodded and said, "No problem, the butler will cooperate with you."

Yukinoshita Yukino took out a pen and wrote down the information provided by Shinomiya Kaguya, then asked, "It is said that you ordered your security personnel to search the whole city for Hayasaka Ai the night before yesterday. What was the reason?"

Shinomiya Kaguya pursed her lips: "Aren't you asking about Sawamura's case? Why did you mention Hayasaka again?"

Yukinoshita Yukino replied calmly: "We also want to ask you about Miss Hayasaka's case, so we'll ask you about it together this time."

"Let's just say it like this," Shinomiya Kaguya spread her hands, "Hayasaka Ai is my best friend, and we have a deep friendship. I knew she was pregnant at the time, so in order to let her rest assured and take care of the baby, I let her live in my villa. But Hayasaka suddenly ran out alone in the middle of the night. I was very worried about her safety, so I anxiously sent people to look for her everywhere."

Yukinoshita Yukino smiled slightly: "I see, this reason makes sense. If I didn't know that you booked a flight for Hayasaka Ai to the United States the next day and consulted the laws on abortion in various states in the United States, I would definitely believe your words."

Shinomiya Kaguya narrowed her eyes slightly: "It seems that you know a lot."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked at him fearlessly: "As a police officer, it is my duty to get information about the victim."

"However, my search for Hayasaka out of concern for her safety and my desire to accompany her to the United States for an abortion don't conflict with each other, right? You wouldn't suspect that I have anything to do with Hayasaka's death for this reason, right?" Shinomiya Kaguya said coldly.

"But if you and Hayasaka Ai like the same person at the same time, and Miss Hayasaka is pregnant with that person's child, it's not surprising that you do such a thing in the heat of the moment." Yukinoshita Yukino said lightly.

"Are you saying that I killed Hayasaka Ai because I was jealous of her? You underestimate my magnanimity!" Shinomiya Kaguya slammed the table angrily and stood up.

"Hayasaka and I grew up together and are as close as sisters. Even if she is pregnant with that man's child, I am a little angry, but I will never do something like hurting someone's life!" Shinomiya Kaguya said righteously.

"I'm just guessing, please forgive me." Yukinoshita Yukino said calmly.

"Heh~" Shinomiya Kaguya sneered, "Are you done asking questions? If you don't have any other questions, please go back. I still have things to do."

Yukinoshita Yukino nodded, "Thank you again for your cooperation, we will be leaving first."

"Goodbye." Kaguya Shinomiya waved her hand.

Yukinoshita Yukino led other police officers out of the door, and a young police officer couldn't help asking: "Superintendent, since you suspected Shinomiya Kaguya, why didn't you arrest her just now?"

"We have no substantive evidence." Yukinoshita Yukino was silent for a few seconds before speaking: "She is the president of the Shinomiya Group after all. It is not appropriate to arrest a business celebrity before we come up with conclusive evidence."

......

After learning the news of Eriri's murder, Kato Megumi hurried to the police station, where she met Hayashi Kazuma who had already finished being questioned.

She ignored the cold war between the two and pulled Lin Hezhen to ask, "How could this happen? Why did Ying Lili suddenly..."

Kato Megumi's face was pale, and it was obvious that she was in great pain.

"I didn't expect that she was still fine last night..." Lin Hezhen choked, "but early this morning, the bad news about Ying Lili came..."

"Eri..." Kato Megumi covered her mouth, tears instantly bursting, "Wuwuwu~ Eriri, she sent me an email yesterday... saying that she hates me, is jealous of me, and envy me..."

"I envy you for being able to be with you, and I envy the relationship between you... That's why she forced you to do those things..."

"She has realized her mistake and decided to return to Ying Country. She also blessed us..." Kato Megumi burst into tears.

"But why did it turn out like this? Wuwuwu... I haven't had the chance to tell her that I have actually forgiven her..."

Kato Megumi leaned on Lin Hezhen's shoulder and cried heart-wrenchingly, and her whole body seemed to have collapsed as if all the strength had been drained out of her.

Lin Hezhen was also in great pain. He hugged his wife and patted her back gently: "I know... I know... Don't cry, Hui, we will definitely find the murderer and avenge Eriri!"

Chapter 335 Media Interview

Lin Kazuma and Kato Megumi hugged each other in tears. The bridge between them that had been broken due to various coincidences was reconnected because of this unfortunate accident.

Kato Hui raised her head and looked at Lin Hezhen with red eyes: "Do you know? In fact, I knew that Eriri liked you a long time ago, so when we were dating, I always felt that I was sorry for Eriri in my heart..."

"I even felt that I had taken away Eriri's chance, and that you two childhood sweethearts couldn't be together until the end like in the fairy tale..."

At this point, Kato Megumi lowered her head and tears welled up in her eyes again: "Kazuma, am I a bad woman who stole the lover of my best friend? I actually did such a despicable thing..."

"How is that possible!" Lin Hezhen tightly grasped Kato Hui's hands and said seriously, "There's nothing wrong with loving someone, and there's nothing wrong with Hui and I loving each other! You don't need to feel guilty about this, because the one who really hurt Eriri is me!"

Lin Hezhen said sadly and regretfully: "When I was young, I didn't know what love was. I simply treated Eriri as a sister and never considered her feelings..."

"If I had discovered Eriri's feelings earlier and handled our relationship properly, wouldn't these things have happened and she wouldn't have died?"

As he was talking, Lin Hezhen recalled the last words that Eriri left before she died.

The girl who apologized to him before she died, the girl who confessed to him at the very end, just left him forever...

The image of Ying Lili appeared in Lin Hezhen's mind, and his heart suddenly twitched.

Their feelings are like the helplessness of a kite that breaks its string and floats away, or like the sparks of meteors that fall and disappear with the fireworks. They settle deep in the memory and cannot be forgotten.

Hayashi Kazuma still hasn't figured out what kind of existence Hayasaka Ai and Eriri are to him.

But their departure brought him a lifetime of pain and regret...

After being questioned by the police, Hayashi Kazuma and Kato Megumi finally calmed down a little, but when they left the police station and were about to go home, an accident happened.

A large group of reporters who got the news from somewhere surrounded the two men. They took out microphones and rushed towards them with cameras. The flash lights kept flashing, making it almost impossible for the two men to open their eyes.

Lin Hezhen subconsciously put Kato Megumi behind him, trying to protect her, but this action also exposed himself completely to the media cameras.

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Lin Hezhen? I heard that you have an unspeakable relationship with the victims of the two recent murders... What is your explanation for this?"

"It is reported that you wanted to break up with the two victims, but they disagreed, so you killed them... Is this true?"

"Someone familiar with the situation pointed out that you have been receiving treatment from a psychiatrist for a long time because of some mental abnormalities... Is your mental condition related to the case? Can you give us an explanation?"

"Mr. Lin Hezhen..."

"Excuse me......"

Reporters kept asking questions frantically, and their questions were sharper than those of the police. They were not seeking the truth of the case at all, but pounced on it like sharks smelling blood, eager to get the most sensational gossip to gain traffic.

They were getting closer and closer, not only blocking the police station gate, but also surrounding Hayashi Kazuma and Kato Megumi, leaving them no way to escape.

When Kato Megumi heard the words "there are some mental abnormalities", her heart beat violently. She subconsciously held Lin Hezhen's hand and observed Lin Hezhen's reaction with the corner of her eye.

Lin Hezhen's face was pale and anger was bursting from his eyes.

These reporters are going too far!

Not only did they invade other people's privacy, they also distorted the facts and confused the public, attempting to portray Lin Hezhen as a murderer. This is simply outrageous.

"I don't know where you heard the news from, but I can tell you for sure that I have never killed anyone. I hope you will stop slandering me, otherwise I will sue you in court!" Lin Hezhen said coldly.

Unfortunately, these reporters, like hungry wolves, were not scared by him. Instead, they became excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

"Mr. Lin, this means that you have admitted that you had an improper relationship with the two victims, right?"

"You don't deny that your mental state is abnormal, do you?"

"Can you tell me in detail what happened between you and the two victims?"

......

Lin Kazuma and Kato Megumi were forced to retreat step by step by a group of reporters. Kato Megumi tripped over the stairs and almost fell. Lin Kazuma was quick to help her up.

"Enough! Stop harassing us, we want to go home!" Lin Hezhen shouted in intolerance.

"Mr. Lin, please answer our questions!" the reporters kept asking.

Seeing that the situation was gradually getting out of control, at this moment, a stern female voice sounded: "What are you doing?!"

I saw Yukinoshita Yukino wearing uniform and leading a group of policemen walking quickly towards everyone.

"This is the police station, not a place where you can act so unruly!" Yukinoshita Yukino's face turned pale and she stared coldly at the crowd of reporters in front of her.

"Who allowed you to enter the police station? Please leave immediately! Otherwise you will be arrested for 'obstructing public service'!" Yukinoshita Yukino warned the group of reporters seriously.

Under her scolding, the arrogance of the reporters was finally suppressed. They did not dare to continue to pester her and left in dismay.

Only after those annoying guys left did Yukinoshita Yukino breathe a sigh of relief.

Lin Hezhen said gratefully: "Xue No, thank you."

Yukinoshita Yukino looked up at Hayashi Kazuma and said in a gentle tone, "Why are you being so polite to me? Did those people give you any trouble? What questions did they ask?"

Lin Hezhen repeated the questions asked by the reporters just now.

After hearing this, Yukinoshita Yukino's eyes widened with anger: "Where did those irresponsible news come from? How can they make such groundless accusations!"

Lin Hezhen shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but two murders happened in a short period of time. The public should feel uneasy, so all kinds of rumors are spreading."

Yukinoshita Yukino pondered, "It seems necessary to hold a press conference to announce some of the information the police have obtained so that everyone can be reassured."

Chapter 336 Be honest with each other

"I think we should do this, too," Lin Hezhen agreed, and then he changed the subject, "Have we made any progress in the investigation of those two cases? Can we now announce to the public who the murderer is?"

"How is that possible? We are just releasing some information that we think can be known to the public to prevent everyone from being misled by bad media." Yukinoshita Yukino sighed.

She added: "In fact, I have a vague idea in my mind that maybe the murderer can be frightened by showing it in the media, so that he will reveal his true identity in a panic, and maybe we can find more clues?"

"That's a good idea," Lin Hezhen nodded, "but I'm still a little confused. Where did those reporters hear the news? Some of this information is known only to us, right? Do they have informants in the police station? Also, why do they tend to identify me as the murderer? Is there someone guiding them?"

"It's possible," Yukinoshita Yukino pondered for a moment, "If someone deliberately spreads rumors and confuses right and wrong, then he is very likely a suspect. I will send someone to investigate immediately."
