Chapter 918 Yokomizo Shigo: I'll only say one sentence

"Officer Yokomizo..................................."

After Matsumoto Kiyonaga finished instructing Ogino Ayami and Yamato Kansuke, he looked over there at Yokomizo Shigeo, who had been eager to speak for some time.

"Tell us about your findings too......................................"

"Yes--"

Yokomizo Shigeaki was immediately invigorated.................................

He had been waiting for this moment for a very long time.............................

The police officer from Kanagawa Prefecture glanced at Yamato Kansuke beside him, then at Ogino Ayami over there, a hint of disdain in his eyes.............................................

Hehe, although I don't know how accurate your information is, but.................................

In this second meeting's intelligence reporting, the Kanagawa Prefectural Police will undoubtedly win...

Whether it's your Saitama Prefectural Police's theory of competition among councilor secretaries, or your Nagano Prefectural Police's theory of personal grudges...........................................

None of them can compare to us...........................................

"Cough cough.............................."

Yokomizo Shigeo cleared his throat and spoke in a deep voice to the crowd........................................

"Commander Matsumoto, and fellow officers....................................."

"My discovery, unlike that of Inspector Ogino or Inspector Yamato, didn't identify a suspect..."

"On the contrary, my clue is only one sentence..."

Upon hearing Yokomizo Shigeo's words, everyone's interest was immediately piqued...

Only one sentence...

They wouldn't assume that Yokomizo Shigego hadn't investigated thoroughly just because he only said one sentence.

On the contrary, this Kanagawa Prefectural Police officer was late, and even when he arrived at the meeting room, he still looked rushed...........................................

This clearly demonstrates that he is an extremely thorough police officer in his investigations......................................

There must be a reason behind what he discovered and took seriously....................................

Furthermore, this Officer Yokomizo said that it was just the content of one sentence, which implies...................................

This one sentence is the key to everything.................................................

So, this sentence..............................

What exactly is it.......................................?

"Chongwu, stop keeping me in suspense..."

As the eldest brother, Yokomizo Sango, seeing his younger brother's expression, knew he was about to start showing off again, so he quickly gave him a warning..................................

Yokomizo Shigeo nodded and said directly,

"Ladies and gentlemen, according to our investigation by the Kanagawa Prefectural Police, we have discovered..."

"Between victim number two, Shizuko Kaga, and victim number four, Azusa Kitajima................................"

"Let's get to know each other!"

what? !

Upon hearing Yokomizo Shigeo's words, the already tense atmosphere among the crowd surged with excitement once more...

Yes, the clue is just a simple sentence...................................

But............................

When those words, spoken with such certainty, came from the mouth of Kanagawa Prefectural Inspector Shigeo Yokomizo.................................

Things suddenly became more complicated...

The police officers present weren't stupid, well, except for Yamamura Misao.......................................

Everyone understands the meaning of this sentence—

Prior to this, all their speculations, including the analysis of the messages left before the death and the analysis of the items left behind by the murderer, pointed to one thing—

That is, there is a high probability that these victims are connected......................................

However, having connections does not necessarily mean knowing each other.

To put it simply, if a murderer is a serial killer, his serial killings will all have a basic objective...................................

This goal might be driven by revenge for someone, but...

There's also a strong possibility that it stems from some psychological reasoning...

For example, someone who was hurt by a woman in the past might choose to commit serial killings against women similar to those who hurt them...

There are also certain connections among these women—

They might have the same hair color, similar life experiences, or even similar personalities...

However, they certainly don't know each other...

This is the difference between having connections and knowing each other....................................

Why is the police finding this case so difficult to investigate?

On the one hand, the perpetrator committed murders across multiple regions, leaving extremely few traces at the crime scenes, making cross-regional police cooperation in the investigation very difficult.

Factors such as these have made progress in the case difficult.

However, on the other hand, it's also because, so far, there seems to be virtually no connection between the six victims...............................

Although everyone speculated and hoped that the victims were connected, the reality was...

The police couldn't find any connection...

They come from different professions, different cities, and are of very different ages and genders.

Their life experiences from childhood to adulthood, as well as their habits and character in dealing with others, are vastly different.

To be honest, it's completely impossible to see any connection between them...................................

But now, Yokomizo Shigeo's words are clearly telling everyone—

There must be a connection between these victims!

Furthermore, there is a high probability that they know each other.....................................

It could be said that this simple sentence propelled the case forward by leaps and bounds.

Therefore, the police officers below erupted in excitement upon hearing this...

A murmur of discussion arose in the conference room...

"alright..............................."

At this moment, Matsumoto Kiyonaga spoke up directly...

He tapped the table lightly and addressed the crowd below with a calm yet authoritative tone.

"Let Inspector Yokomizo finish speaking......................................"

"How did the second victim, Shizuko Kaga, and the fourth victim, Azusa Kitajima, meet, and what was their connection?......................................"

After saying this, Lin Jiayou, who was pretending to be Matsumoto Kiyonaga, had a flicker in his eyes...

Interesting. How come I didn't realize before that Yokomizo Shigeo was quite skilled?

I initially thought he wouldn't find out for another couple of days, but unexpectedly, he discovered on the very first day that Kaga Shizuko and Kitajima Azusa knew each other.

If we continue investigating along these clues, perhaps...

In about a day, he will be able to find out the date of 'Qixi Festival'.....................................

But it's okay, Gin and the others will probably be here soon............................
