Chapter 224: Criticizing Sang and Huai
Different from the ugly face that jumped over the wall before, Takasugi Toshihiko at this moment has no intention of continuing to deny.
He almost acquiesced in public that he was the murderer, and then after a long period of shock, he asked in disbelief:
"Sayuri clearly knows those things."
"Then why did she allow me to get close to her and agree to date me?"
"Because she has fallen in love with you a long time ago." Sayuri's best friend replied: "Do you still remember the little girl you knew when you were a child who was often bullied by bad boys?"
"That's right. That's Sayuri. She has always regarded you as her first love!"
"This" Takasugi Toshihiko was stunned on the spot again.
It was as if he was struck by lightning one after another, and his body was shaking uncontrollably.
This plot development exceeded the expectations of everyone present.
Everyone was waiting to see Lin Xinyi's criminal investigation drama, but they didn't expect that Miss Maori would deviate from the style of the film in just a few words.
But no matter what happened, everyone present could tell that the groom was the murderer.
As Matsumoto warned, Sayuri's father rushed to the dazed Takasugi Toshihiko angrily and grabbed the son-in-law by the collar:
"You murderer."
"It turns out that it was really you who did it!!"
Seeing Toshihiko Takasugi's reaction just now, the last bit of luck in Matsumoto's heart was shattered.
When he thought that the person his daughter had entrusted with her life was such a murderer, he felt itchy with hatred:
"asshole!!"
"Say! Why on earth, why did you poison my daughter?!"
The words just fell, in the endless anger.
Matsumoto Jingjing couldn't help but stretched out his big fan-like palm and gave Takasugi Toshihiko a loud slap in the face.
The slap was so powerful that Mr. Takasugi staggered back three or four meters and fell to the ground.
"justifiable defense!"
"This is self-defense!"
Lin Xinyi stood up and shouted a few words instinctively.
And Toshihiko Takasugi, who was slapped into a pig's head, seemed to have no intention of pursuing Matsumoto's police beating.
He just staggered and stood up, covering his face. His eyes that seemed to have lost their soul instinctively revealed a sense of hatred:
"Why?"
"It's all because of you. Matsumoto Kiyonaga!"
"Because you only focused on arresting fugitives twenty years ago, but you caused my innocent mother to die unfortunately!"
It turned out that Takasugi Toshihiko's biological mother was unfortunately involved in a car accident, but she did not die on the spot.
He asked for help from Matsumoto Kiyonaga, who was passing nearby at the time, but Matsumoto Kiyonaga was only focused on catching the fugitive and did not help send a police car to the hospital.
In this way, because she did not receive timely rescue, Takasugi Toshihiko's mother died of her injuries and died in his arms.
"This" Matsumoto's alert expression froze.
He recalled the past and murmured:
"Is that boy you?"
"I was busy chasing the prisoner at the time, and I didn't even see the car accident there, nor did I pay attention to your cry for help."
"When I found out later, it was already too late."
This incident was obviously a painful experience for Matsumoto Police.
And Toshihiko Takasugi, who said all this in front of his enemies, did not feel any pleasure at this moment:
"That's why I want to seek revenge from you. I want you to feel the pain of having a loved one die in front of you!"
"But, I didn't expect that"
"Sayuri."
As he spoke, the resentment in Takasugi Toshihiko's eyes completely turned into guilt.
He never thought that this girl could be so stupid, knowing his true face, but still willing to die for him.
"Sayuri, she should be fine, right?"
Takasugi Toshihiko murmured like this as if he had lost his soul.
Tears welled up in his eyes, as if he was sincerely repenting of his sins.
And because Matsumoto Police thought about his past mistakes and saw Takasugi's sincerely regretful tears, he gradually became unable to be angry.
There seemed to be soft music playing invisibly, and everyone was very moved.
But Lin Xinyi coldly killed the BGM:
"Can't die."
"It's just that in the next few months, Ms. Sayuri's mouth and throat will feel like red-hot charcoal is stuck, and she will feel pain all the time."
"I had to have my esophagus dilated or even get a stent in the previous month, so I could eat some mushy soft food."
"The burned esophagus and stomach will also have sequelae of scar tissue hyperplasia, esophageal stenosis, and gastric ulcers. If the situation is serious, you may not be able to eat and drink normally for the rest of your life."
Although it is a good thing that the prisoner can repent, Lin Xinyi really can't stand it. This kind of scene where only people who have been tortured can cry bitterly:
The pain and conscience are only shown now. What did you do when you were poisoned?
Such tears were worthless in his eyes - and even suspected of gaining sympathy to clear his name.
"You may regret it."
"But if regret is useful, what's the use of prison?!"
"When you used sodium hydroxide to poison, did you really not think about how much pain this poison would cause Ms. Sayuri?!"
"Sodium hydroxide is said to be poisonous, but its killing method is to burn people alive from the inside of the body!"
"And if you really love her so much, how could you do such a crazy and cruel thing in the first place?"
"I" Toshihiko Takasugi's face turned pale.
Matsumoto Jingjing, who had almost softened his heart just now when he heard the pain his daughter might endure, suddenly turned cold.
"And your so-called revenge"
"It's also so ridiculous that it's hard to understand!"
Lin Xinyi had a sullen face and couldn't help scolding Takasugi Toshihiko:
"Is it Police Matsumoto who killed your mother?"
"Did he not save your mother on purpose? According to Police Matsumoto, he was so eager to catch the fugitive that he didn't even notice that someone was hit there!"
"Taking a step back, even if Matsumoto's vigilance was not an unintentional mistake, but he really did not save anyone—"
"Then what does this guilt have to do with his daughter?!"
As he spoke, he became a little angry out of righteous indignation:
"Takasugi Toshihiko, you are not even an Avenger."
"You are just a monster mentally twisted in pain, a coward who vents his anger on innocent people!"
Lin Shinichi's words were like a sharp knife, ruthlessly piercing Takasugi Toshihiko's character of "victim of love tragedy" that was very capable of gaining sympathy.
Takasugi Toshihiko blushed and dared not speak.
He finally realized how ugly he was, so ugly that even tears and confession would appear false.
"I plead guilty, arrest me!"
Takasugi Toshihiko was already ashamed and just wanted to go to prison to atone for his sins as soon as possible.
Police Inspector Matsumoto held a pair of handcuffs, walked up to his son-in-law coldly, and put the handcuffs on him personally:
"What happened twenty years ago was my fault. You can hate me as much as you want."
"But I will never forgive you for what you did today, Takasugi."
Matsumoto Police finally realized clearly how ridiculous his soft-heartedness just now was.
This kind of lunatic who can cruelly poison his lover is definitely not worthy of entrusting his daughter to him.
"Everyone, please disperse!"
"This wedding can't be held!"
Police officer Matsumoto escorted Toshihiko Takasugi and put him into the police car.
The police car drove away, and the guests at the scene also sighed and prepared to disperse.
And Lin Xinyi's anger that quietly surged because of this ridiculous revenge story gradually subsided after the song ended.
At this time, the silver-haired beauty who had been watching quietly from the side came forward with a smile:
"My Boy, you just scolded me really well."
"Just a few words." Lin Xinyi responded nonchalantly.
But Belmode walked up to him quietly and looked into his eyes closely:
"But you've never felt this way before."
"When did you actually become so excited because of the pain others suffered?"
"I" Lin Xinyi's expression froze:
What's worse, he just couldn't hold it back and showed his true feelings.
And this kind of emotion that comes from feelings is difficult to use "performance" to explain away.
After all, from the perspective of his role as a manager, it is enough to be responsible for solving cases. There is no need to add this scene of indignation and reprimand.
Belmod must have noticed that he and the original owner's personalities were no longer consistent.
"It's troublesome." Lin Xinyi couldn't help but feel a little numb.
And when he felt nervous about the other party's keen observation.
A hint of helplessness quietly emerged in the pair of emerald green eyes that were so close:
"As expected, you still hate me because of Shirley."
"Those words just now."
Belmode smiled to himself:
"I'm afraid it's not Toshihiko Takasugi who's scolding him, but me, right?"
Lin Xinyi: "???"
He felt a little unresponsive in his heart, but he still switched to the paralyzed face filled with bitterness and hatred in a timely manner.
Only with this cold face that matched the gin, he could try his best to hide his emotions from being discovered by the Belmode teacher.
"'Monsters twisted in pain, cowards who vent their anger on innocent people'"
Belmod slowly repeated what Lin Shinichi had said when he scolded Toshihiko Takasugi.
As she said these words, there was a hint of undetectable bitterness in her eyes:
"So this is how you see me?"
"In your eyes, I, the teacher, have unknowingly turned into a 'monster'."
After hearing this, Lin Xinyi finally reacted:
It turned out that the words he just scolded Takasugi Toshihiko fit perfectly with Belmod's situation.
Because Xiao Ai had told him that Belmod seemed to have developed a deep hatred for her parents because of some of the research they were asked to do by the organization.
After the death of the Miyano couple, she began to anger the two daughters of the Miyano family.
This kind of unreasonable hatred is exactly the same as what Toshihiko Takasugi did to Matsumoto's vigilant daughter.
so.
To Belmod's ears, Lin Xinyi was just using the topic to criticize others.
"I didn't mean that."
As soon as Lin Xin understood the situation, he simply brought up the topic with a cold face:
"Shirley is already dead, so what's the point of talking about this?"
Belmode was silent for a while.
Lin Xinyi stopped chatting with her and was busy directing the police officers on site to complete the finishing work.
Looking at Lin Xinyi's retreating back, Belmod took out a slender lady's cigarette, silently held it in his mouth and lit it.
It was not polite to smoke in public places and it was not in line with her role as a lady, but she still wanted to smoke.
Because, thinking of Lin Xinyi's cold face to her and his scolding words, she couldn't help but feel a little irritated:
"Damn it. This woman is still lingering after death."
Belmod instinctively hated Miyano Shiho.
However, this woman is dead after all.
When the enemy dies, the hatred will subside unconsciously.
Thinking again of Toshihiko Takasugi, that ridiculous avenger.
It felt like looking into a mirror, in which my own ugliness was clearly reflected.
"Oh, cowards who vent their anger on innocent people"
Belmod exhaled a deep breath of smoke.
The smoke slowly dispersed, and her eyes became blank:
"This innocent man is dead."
"Who can I hate now?"
