Ke Xue: An outlaw, a maniac who sets out to usurp the throne! Chapter 122

It was a coincidence—

The surveillance footage Amuro Tooru found was not from an official surveillance camera installed on the road.

It wasn’t even a civilian camera, but… from a car’s dashcam!

Coincidentally, the owner of that car had been taken to the traffic police two days prior due to a traffic violation.

Furthermore, due to the accident assessment, video records from several hours before and after the violation were left with the traffic police…

And in the footage, there happened to be a segment that captured Kazami Yuuya’s car.

One had to admit, it was quite a coincidence.

However, Amuro Tooru checked the identity of the violating car owner—

No issues, just an ordinary employee of a financial company.

The reason for the violation was speeding to deliver an urgent contract to the company…

Moreover, in the video recorded by the other party’s car, there wasn’t much content about Kazami Yuuya’s car.

It only occupied a few seconds.

Even the shots of Kazami Yuuya’s face were only captured during the few seconds of overtaking…

Nevertheless, these brief few seconds were enough for Amuro Tooru to confirm—

At that time, the person driving Kazami Yuuya’s car was indeed Kazami Yuuya himself!

And although Kazami Yuuya looked very serious at the time,

He didn’t seem to be controlled by anyone.

Instead… he seemed to have discovered something and was in pursuit!

Upon realizing this, Amuro Tooru naturally took it seriously immediately.

He repeatedly watched the video, striving not to miss a single detail…

In addition, Amuro Tooru also determined a few most likely routes based on Kazami Yuuya’s driving direction at the time.

The most crucial thing was to figure out where Kazami Yuuya was going!

Fortunately, the road Kazami Yuuya was driving on was already quite secluded.

Strictly speaking, it was already close to the outskirts of Tokyo.

Moreover, there were no residential areas nearby; instead, there were many factories and warehouse districts…

Considering this, it wasn’t hard to guess—

Kazami Yuuya at that time was definitely not just passing by!

…

While Amuro Tooru was frantically searching for clues related to Kazami Yuuya’s death, Jiang Heng and Kisaki Eri, along with others, arrived at the construction site where the death occurred.

Due to their lawyer identities, Jiang Heng and the others smoothly entered.

They also attracted a project manager…

“Lawyer Jiang, I’ve heard much about you. I’m Ken Yamamoto, the project manager.”

Ken Yamamoto jogged over, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

“Manager Yamamoto, is it very hot today?” Jiang Heng glanced at Ken Yamamoto thoughtfully.

“Well… not really.” Ken Yamamoto’s expression stiffened.

“It’s mainly because we work on construction sites; sometimes when we get busy, we get incredibly tired…”

“Don’t look at the lack of sun now; it still gets very hot when you’re tired.”

Upon hearing this, Mouri Kogoro couldn’t help but frown.

He asked suspiciously, “You’re a project manager—do you also have to do physical labor yourself?”

“This… normally, no.” Ken Yamamoto hesitated.

After stealthily looking around, he explained with a wry smile.

“It’s just that someone died a few days ago. Although construction has somewhat resumed now,”

“Many workers resigned directly out of fear…

“We can’t recruit more people for a while, so to meet the deadline, we management sometimes have to do some work.”

Saying this, Ken Yamamoto also made a long face and shook his head.

“But wasn’t a culprit already caught?”

Mouri Ran blinked and asked instinctively.

Although that culprit might not be the real killer,

The people on the construction site might not be aware of this, right…

“This…” Ken Yamamoto couldn’t help but purse his lips.

He said hesitantly, “Some things I’m about to tell you, please don’t reveal them to the media!”

Kisaki Eri subconsciously exchanged glances with Jiang Heng, narrowing her eyes as she looked at Ken Yamamoto.

“Manager Yamamoto, you know that Lawyer Jiang and I are both lawyers.”

“Regarding confidentiality… you don’t need to worry.”

“True.” Ken Yamamoto nodded, unsure if he believed it or not.

“Actually… many people are saying that Shusato Yamagami isn’t the real killer.”

“And the real killer has actually been on our construction site all along, and might commit another crime at any time…”

“Hiss—” Mouri Ran inexplicably felt a chill run down her spine.

This Ken Yamamoto spoke as if he were telling a ghost story; it was truly terrifying!

“How did this news… spread?” Kisaki Eri couldn’t help but frown.

“Oh, who knows.” Ken Yamamoto waved his hand indifferently. (For thrilling novels, visit Feilu Novels!)

“Anyway, when I heard about it, the news was already circulating with detailed accounts.”

“Moreover, when Shusato Yamagami was arrested—”

“He kept shouting that he was being wronged, and a lot of people on the construction site heard it…”

As he spoke, as if he had thought of something, Ken Yamamoto suddenly turned to Jiang Heng and said.

“Lawyer Jiang, I heard you’re a lawyer who specializes in overturning murder suspect cases?”

“Then… you’re here this time… could it be that Shusato Yamagami really isn’t the killer?”

“We’ll have to see.” Jiang Heng shook his head.

“However, Manager Yamamoto doesn’t seem very afraid of this matter?”

“This… isn’t it ‘a clear conscience fears no evil’?”

Ken Yamamoto shrugged, speaking with complete lack of guilt.

“To be honest, I’m not surprised that Hasamoto Sei died at all.”

Hasamoto Sei was the deceased who died at this construction site!

“Oh? What makes you say that?” Kisaki Eri narrowed her eyes.

“Though it’s said that the dead are to be respected, Hasamoto Sei’s temper was really not good.”

Ken Yamamoto sighed and shook his head.

“You might not know, but these manual laborers on construction sites—”

“Although they’re usually exhausted, there are also many conflicts.”

“But usually, they’re just minor squabbles, and things are over once they pass…”

“Only this Hasamoto Sei… had a very fiery temper.”

“If anyone provoked him, he would definitely fight back, even jokes were not allowed.”

“Because of this, there were quite a few workers on the construction site who had conflicts with Hasamoto Sei.”

“However, Shusato Yamagami was unlucky; he was the one who had the biggest conflict with Hasamoto Sei these past two days!”

“It seems you know a lot about the goings-on here,” Jiang Heng said meaningfully.

“After all, I’m also the project manager, and even if I don’t want to get involved—”

“There were a few times when Hasamoto Sei caused too much trouble, and it came directly to me…”

Ken Yamamoto shook his head, looking very helpless.

“Then… Manager Yamamoto, do you know much about Shusato Yamagami? 860” Kisaki Eri asked thoughtfully.

“As for Yamagami… I’m not familiar with him.” Ken Yamamoto shook his head without hesitation.

“However, when the police investigated that day, I overheard something—”

“Yamagami seems quite honest; he was just pushed too far by Hasamoto Sei those two days, that’s why he acted that way.”

“Quite honest… and yet he could say things about killing?” Mouri Kogoro didn’t quite believe it.

“That’s hard to say. Even a cornered rabbit will bite!” Ken Yamamoto shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Heng nodded thoughtfully.

As for the cause of the conflict between Shusato Yamagami and Hasamoto Sei—

Actually, Jiang Heng and the others had already seen it in the case files.

These workers usually lived on the construction site, and most of them were single.

However, Shusato Yamagami’s wife recently had time and had visited Shusato Yamagami at the site…

At that time, Hasamoto Sei happened to see her.

And Hasamoto Sei even had lewd intentions and immediately flirted with Shusato Yamagami’s wife on the spot.

However, Shusato Yamagami, who arrived, stopped him.

Hasamoto Sei was unwilling and directly slandered Shusato Yamagami’s wife in front of her.

Shusato Yamagami was naturally displeased.

Fortunately, Shusato Yamagami’s wife had a good relationship with him.

Naturally, she wouldn’t quarrel with Shusato Yamagami over someone who clearly had bad character…

Originally, Shusato Yamagami’s wife left that day.

Even if Shusato Yamagami felt resentful, after a couple of days, when he had mostly forgotten about it, the matter would have passed.

However, Hasamoto Sei was a troublemaker and actually spread false rumors about Shusato Yamagami among the co-workers!

Shusato Yamagami naturally wouldn’t stand for it, but unfortunately, he couldn’t out-argue Hasamoto Sei…

Finally, the two got into a fight, and that’s how their feud began.
