Chapter 3.4


Marunouchi,
Tokyo

When Yui regained consciousness, she said that she is channelling Nagasawa Nao vision.
Yui is not medium. Normally, she can't perform channelling. But, sometimes the vision coming to her through post-cognition or psychometric.

Everyone looked worried for almost 20 minutes Yui fainted. Ayako gave her water so she felt better.

"You are okay?" Sakuya looked at her worriedly. Yui nodded.

I'm also worried. But, why can't I do anything.

"Do you see something?" Kiyoharu asked, "Did Nagawasa Nao say something?"

Yui took a deep breath, "The vision I see, it before Nao-san died and after she died. Even though normally, I can't see the spirit vision. Maybe it's what Nao-san want to say to us, "

"What happened to Nao-san?" Katayama-san asked forcefully.

Yui looked at Katayama-san, she seemed hesitant to say it, "Takizawa Ryoko come to Nagasawa Nao apartment. They are talking about something, but look like there is an argument between them. Takizawa-san then stands up and trying to attack Nagasawa-san. They push each other and suddenly, Takizawa-san takes the astray and hit Nagasawa-san head,"

As I expected, Nagasawa Nao was killed by Takizawa Ryoko.

Yui then continued telling her vision while tightening her grip on the glass in her hand, "When Nagasawa-san collapse, Takizawa-san calling someone and just a few minutes, Yamaguchi Kento coming. They both look panic. They talking to each other, maybe about what they will do next. They then carrying Nagasawa-san body out. They put her in the car and left that place,"

"Nao!!" Katayama-san burst into tears, "Why did this happen?"

Kusanagi-san-san looked at Yui, "They are going to hide the body? Where?" he asked. 

"A forest, " Yui said, "They passed the hallway, and there is a tunnel. At the end of the tunnel, there is a small road headed to the forest. They stop the car, carrying Nagasawa-san body, it's far away from the road, they began to dig up the hole, and buried Nagasawa-san body there," Yui stopped for moments, "But, Nagasawa-san still alive at that time,"

Kusanagi-san looks shocked, "What?!" Kusanagi-san rises his voice, "They buried her alive?!"

"NO! NAO-SAN! NO!" Katayama-san suddenly screams, Ayako trying to calm her down.

Yui nodded, "She just unconscious. But, it was not long before she passes away. When I saw a green surrounding, I suddenly stand in the Nagasawa-san apartment,"

My chest feels tight. It must be very hard for her to see all these things. In Yui's case, she even felt the same as the victim. That must be very painful. Why did she decide to work for Shibasaki-sensei?

Yui took a breath, "I saw Takizawa Ryoko and Yamaguchi Kenta cleaning the room. They look panic and have some argue. At that time, Takizawa Tetsuya just visiting, they don't realize because they still argued, and from the look of Tetsuya-san face, I think he knows what happened to Nagasawa-san. He just leaves that place," Yui explained.

Kusanagi-san looked confused, "He didn't do anything?"

Yui shook her head, "But, after that, they meet each other. Takizawa Tetsuya and Yamaguchi Kenta. They look like talking about something. I can see that the Yamaguchi-san face is pale. Maybe Takizawa Tetsuya threatens him, "

"This is where they planned the second murder, " I said, "Takizawa Tetsuya planned to kill his wife, Takizawa Ryoko, "

Yui nodded, "I saw Yamaguchi-san doing something with his car, look like he's sabotaging the car, and then Ryoko-san comes to his apartment. But, not so long after that, Ryoko-san receive a phone and rushing outside while carrying the car key and then left Yamaguchi-san apartment with the car,"

"I guess that Takizawa Tetsuya calls her. And ask her to come home, " Ayako guessed, "Maybe he said he didn't want to divorce,"

"I don't see if the car got into an accident. But, I saw Tetsuya-san and Yamaguchi-san meeting in the bar. When Yamaguchi doesn't pay attention, Tetsuya-san put something on his drink, " Yui said, "It makes him unconscious or drunk. Tetsuya-san then carried Yamaguchi-san to his car and drove the car to the place where Nao-san buried,"

"He planning to kill him too," Kusanagi-san said, "He wants revenge,"

Yui took a breath again, "Tetsuya-san kills Yamaguchi-san using a bat while he was still unconscious. Then put the body under the tree. He digs up a Nao-san body and put her beside Yamaguchi-san. Then he left. That is what I saw in my vision,"

"He just dug into Nakagawa-san's body and just let it go?" Kusanagi-san looked surprised and confused, "Why he's doing that? He just needs to call the police and tell everything. He doesn't need to kill anyone, " Kusanagi-san still doesn't believe what he heard.

"He just lost himself, " Sakuya said, "Maybe, he wants to carry Nao-san body home, but when he remembered that he already kill Yamaguchi-san and his wife, he confused and running away from that place,"

Everyone keep silent for a moment. Trying to understand what happened.

You could say this is a tragedy. Even so, cases like this are common around the community. I always wonder why people can kill and be cruel just because of love. In my opinion, that's just the reason they made it. In the bottom of their hearts, they only want to kill.

I took a deep breath, "Kusanagi-san, we will leave the rest to the police. We decided that we already solve the case," I said, "That's not our authority anymore. Katayama-san is this far we can help you," I looked at Katayama-san who still shocked.

"Please at least, let me heard Nao last words. She must have something to say to her grandparents," Katayama-san bowed her head.

"Naomasa-kun let me and Rui help her. At least we can help her, so she can leave in peace. I'm sure she wants to go home too, " Ayako said while looking seriously at me.

Takizawa Ryoko and Yamaguchi Kenta also might have something they want to say. But, no one cares about them. That's not fair, in my opinion.

I just nodded, "I understand,"

"Thank you very much!" Katayama-san looks really happy. Her tears can't stop falling.

No matter what, we can do anything. We can't save anyone.

A few days later, Kusanagi-san coming to our office. He said that Takizawa Tetsuya confessed all his crime. Everything just like Yui vision. But, Takizawa Tetsuya didn't regret his action for killing his wife and her lover. He just can't forgive himself because he can't save Nao-san and his child.

I finally understand about Nao-san feeling. She does ask for help from Katayama-san. But, after she saw what Takizawa Tetsuya doing, she feels sorry for him. She didn't want him to carry all the blame. That's why she wants us to stop the investigation. For the sake of Takizawa Tetsuya.

But, at the same time, she doesn't want him to carry all the tragedy too. Maybe she scared that he will end his life too. Even after she died in a tragic way, she still cares about the him.

I would only be honest, the man who left his wife only because his wife could not give him a child, and the woman who had an affair with someone's husband, if you think clearly, Takizawa Ryoko is a victim. She felt lonely and had an affair with Yamazaki Kenta, it was all her husband's fault.

I ... don't feel sorry for Nagasawa Nao.

***

We left the office together after finishing Nakagawa-san's case. Kusanagi-san invited us to have a drink together, but when we were going together, it seemed he get a call from the police station.

Rui approached me as we walked out of the office, "Naomasa-kun, I want to ask permission for tomorrow," he smiled sweetly at me.

I looked at him sharply, "Don't look at me like that. It's scary," I turned away and continued walking. They all laughed.

"Rui-kun, do you have a photo shoot tomorrow?" Yui asked, her voice sounded soft as usual.

"Ah ... actually this is a talk show. There is a new program on one TV station and they invited me," Rui's voice sounded stiff, he seemed embarrassed.

"Eh? !!" They were all shocked.

Ayako hit Rui's shoulder, "Good work. Rui-kun!" She even sounded very excited, "Soon, you will definitely get an offer for movies and drama,"

Yui nodded. "That's right. Good luck, Rui-kun!" Yui also sounded very excited.

Rui scratched his head, "That's ... just luck," Rui looked embarrassed, "After all, they invited many other models," Rui smiled, "Ackk !!!" Rui turned around when Kiyoharu hit his head.

"Don't say that, idiot!" Kiyoharu glared at him, "I also started from just being a substitute. They just took pictures of my back,"

They all laughed again. I can only look at them from behind. Kiyoharu is an actor. Although not very well-known, he had gotten some supporting cast in the movies and tv drama. He's a model too.

I took a deep breath. Where Shibasaki-sensei met with these people.

"Is there no news from Shibasaki-sensei?" Sakuya asked while walking right beside me.

I looked at him and shook my head, "He didn't reply to any of my e-mails," I grumbled, "What he did to leave the office for 6 months?"

"He ... will come back at the right time," Sakuya said while took a deep breath.

Shibasaki-sensei set up this detective office together with Sakuya. They both seemed very close and understood each other. I always guessed, it looks like they both have a secret they hid. Sometimes the aura around them is scary.

"Sakuya! Naomasa! See you tomorrow!" Kiyoharu waved his hand.

We both just raised our hands a little and saw Rui and Kiyoharu getting into their cars.

"Then, I'm going home too," Yui smiled, "I'll see you tomorrow,"

"Yui!" Sakuya stops her when Yui will cross the road. Yui turned around and looked at Sakuya in confusion, "Let me take you home," he said.

"Eh?" Yui looked surprised, "But ... Sakuya-kun, don't you have to work at home after this?"

Sakuya nodded, "No problem. Come on!"

Yui then followed Sakuya from behind to where his car was parked. I just took a breath seeing them. Both of them waved to me and I replied with a thin smile.

"You lost one more step, huh !?" Ayako suddenly whispered in my ears from behind and surprised me. She laughed.

"You also have to go home," I walked to where my car was parked.

Ayako continued to follow me, "Take me home," she said jokingly, "You know, it's late and it would be very dangerous if a girl like me walked home alone?"

"How many girls do you think are walking at this hour?" I said coldly, "And don't worry. With your personality like that, no one will dare to touch you. Maybe, they have to be careful not to get stuck with you," I said as I opened the car door.

Ayako pouted, "You're really not gentle, Naomasa-kun!" she said irritably.

I ignored it and entered the car, when suddenly Ayako entered and sat in the passenger seat. She seemed to not care about me and immediately put on the seatbelt after closing the car door.

I looked at her as if I didn't believe in her behavior, "What are you doing?" I glared at her, "Don't you have shame as a woman?"

Ayako gave me a smile, "When you are in love, you should be able to get rid of your shame," she looked at me, "Look, if you're not ashamed to invite Yui home together, you are definitely driving together with her right now, "Ayako shook her head.

"I don't believe this," I took a deep breath and ignored her while turning on the engine and slowly getting out of the parking lot.

Ayako continued to chatter along the way. Usually my trip will be calmer and now I'm like listening to a broken radio.

"Naomasa-kun, when was the last time you went home, I mean your parents home?" Ayako looked at me with a sly smile.

I just shut up and focus on driving. I can run out of energy if I follow the flow of the conversation.

"It must be really nice to go home when're you belong," Ayako grumbled.

I just remembered that Ayako's parents had divorcing. His father was a doctor and his mother was a well-known designer. Since divorce, her mother settled in New York with her and her father continued his studies in London. She returned to Japan when she graduated and worked in a cosmetics company. Ayako is a well-known bloggers. Some of the videos she made became advertisements on several TV stations.

I also wondered how she could work for Shibasaki-sensei, "Ayako, why are you working with Shibasaki-sensei?" I asked, stopping the car because of the red light.

Ayako smiled, "Are you interested to know?" we looked at each other for a moment. When the sound of the car behind me surprised me. I saw the lights that were green and returned to running the car while took a breath.

I really don't understand women.
