Chapter 613: The Fateful Mandarin Duck
"What are you doing so early in the morning?" Chen Yang muttered and picked up the phone.
Qingqi Qingyin's anxious voice came from the other side.
"Mr. Chen, something happened. Was Yukiji Uchiyama killed?"
"What?" Chen Yang shuddered and suddenly came to his senses, "Qingqi-kun, when did this happen? How could this happen?"
Qingqi Qingyin said in a deep voice: "The forensic officer is checking. Chen Sang, we initially suspect that the purpose of the assassination was to obtain the Navy LA military radio code book in the hands of Colonel Uchiyama."
Chen Yang's voice suddenly rose eight degrees: "The code book is missing too?"
Qing Qi Qing Yin said: "It's hard to say, we found a safe in the room, but we don't have the password, so we haven't opened it yet."
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Chen Yang responded and got up in a hurry...
When we arrived at the Cathay Hotel, it was already bright outside.
At this time, the gendarmerie, the Mei Agency, the Special High Police and several Manchuria Railway investigators surrounded the entire hotel with three layers inside and three layers outside.
Compared to intelligence units like the Mei Agency and the Special High Section, Unit 76 seems much weaker.
The two teams could only perform some security work downstairs in cooperation with the gendarmerie.
Seeing Chen Yang's car arrive at the hotel, Li Zuping from the No. 76 Action Team hurried forward, pushed through the crowd, and saluted, "Minister, thank you for your hard work."
Chen Yang's face turned pale. He didn't have time to pay attention to Li Zuping and went straight to the top floor.
All the personnel on the top floor of the Cathay Hotel have been controlled by an action team and an investigation team of the Special High Section, as well as the investigation team and action team of the Mei Agency.
Qingqi Qingyin stood by the service desk, smoking dejectedly. It was obvious that there was very little evidence left at the scene.
There is simply no way to pin down the killer's details.
"Mr. Qingqi, what's going on?" As soon as Chen Yang came out of the elevator, he saw Qingqi Qingyin smoking.
Qing Qi Qing Yin hurriedly threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and said, "Mr. Chen, we are in trouble. The other party acted very cleanly and basically did not leave any valuable clues."
Chen Yang frowned slightly and said, "Take me to see it."
Qingqi Qingyin nodded and took Chen Yang to a luxurious guest room at the end of the corridor.
This guest room is about 100 square meters and is divided into two rooms, inner and outer.
The facilities are obviously much more luxurious than those in other rooms.
Chen Yang walked to the door and put on shoe covers and gloves as required by the forensic officer.
Walking into the room, Chen Yang was slightly stunned.
There was not one body in the room at this moment, but two.
A male corpse was lying on the ground with his back facing up, eyes closed, while the other female corpse was lying on the bed with her front facing up.
The only thing they had in common was that they were both naked.
"How did the person die?" Chen Yang looked at the body and asked the forensic officer Sadaichi Asai beside him.
The medical examiner in a white coat obviously knew Chen Yang's identity. He stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Minister Chen, these two people were stabbed in the heart by a sharp blade in a very short time, and the blow was fatal."
"The wounds on the male victims were almost identical to those on the female victims."
"They are all on the lower right side of the chest. A tiny sharp blade goes through the bones and reaches the heart."
"The method is extremely sophisticated. It seems that he is a professional killer."
Chen Yang squatted down and looked at Yukiji Uchiyama's wound, then walked to the bedside, looked at the wound of the girl on the bed, nodded slightly, and agreed with the forensic officer's judgment.
"Any other discoveries?"
Forensic officer Asai said: "We found a lot of footprints in the room, but after our comparison, we completely ruled out the suspicion of outsiders."
Chen Yang frowned slightly and said, "Among the pile of footprints, there is not a single footprint of an outsider? Have you checked it clearly?"
Forensic medical examiner Asai said sternly, "Minister Chen, please trust our expertise. We have examined the traces at the scene and the two bodies."
"The female corpse's lower body showed very obvious signs of congestion, which means that this woman had more than one ambiguous contact with men in a short period of time."
"Judging from the traces left at the scene, these footprints were left when the two of them came into contact."
This means that these two people have played around the entire room? Damn, old pervert, he is still in such a good mood at this moment, he deserves to die.
"Anything else you found? I heard you found a safe. Was it broken into?"
Forensic Officer Asai said: "The safe is on the right side of the room. There are no signs of strong damage on it. From the current situation, it seems that the murderer has not opened the safe."
Chen Yang said in a deep voice: "Are you sure?"
Forensic Officer Asai said: "I can't guarantee it 100%. If the murderer knew the combination of the safe, that would be another matter."
"But judging from the current on-site environment, the safe has indeed not been opened by anyone."
Thump thump thump. At this moment, another sound of footsteps was heard.
A group of officers and soldiers in naval uniforms walked into the room in unison, led by none other than Keiji Okita of the Navy's Special Affairs Investigation Division.
Behind Okita Keiji there are two people with the same military rank as him, and they are obviously also senior leaders of the navy.
"Mr. Chen, what's the situation at the scene?" Okita Keiji asked Chen Yang as he entered the door.
"Okita-kun, this matter seems to be a bit troublesome." Chen Yang responded and told the others the results of the forensic officer's examination.
Okita Keiji frowned and pulled Chen Yang aside, whispering, "Mr. Chen, these two are the heads of the Marine Corps Command's secret message group."
"This is Colonel Ishigaki, and this is Colonel Tanaka."
"They want to know if the codebook is safe."
Chen Yang looked around and whispered, "The forensic officer said that there was no sign that the safe was forced open. It seems that the murderer did not have enough time to open the safe."
"How about this, let's open the safe first and see if the box containing the code book has been opened before."
After saying that, Chen Yang quickly asked Qingqi Qingyin to arrange for a locksmith to come and open the safe.
After a while, a locksmith in a gray shirt came in carrying a box, and he bowed and nodded to everyone as soon as he came in.
Chen Yang stepped forward and said, "Master, could you please take a look and see if this box has been opened by anyone?"
Upon hearing this, the locksmith quickly opened the box, took out the tools from it and squatted next to the safe.
A group of people held their breath and watched the locksmith's movements.
It took about ten minutes, and with a click, the safe was successfully opened.
The locksmith wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "Reporting to the Majesty, based on my experience, this safe should not have been opened by force."
"Unless, of course, this person knows the combination to the safe."
"That's another matter."
