Chapter 298 The End of the Nagato Family
Under Miss Hyuga's gaze, Ze Yu smiled and said softly, "Mr. Nagato Guangming, was it my sister who killed him?"
Hearing this, Miss Hyuga's pupils shrank, and then she smiled and said, "Little friend, I have never done such a thing. Mr. Guangming is..."
"Who killed him?"
Before Ms. Hinata could finish her words, Sawaha spoke up first: "Is it Mr. Hideomi? But he's dead, so he can't be the murderer."
"When Mr. Guangming died, the president was sleeping. After eliminating him, there are only three people who could have killed Mr. Guangming. So, sister is the murderer, right?"
"Little friend, why do you keep doubting me?" Miss Hinata was a little embarrassed and laughed dryly: "You also said that there are three suspects."
"But sister also knows that the other two can't be the murderer." Ze Yu said decisively: "Besides, I know very well what happened back then."
"What happened back then...?" Miss Hinata was stunned.
"It was about Mr. Nagato Guangming and Mr. Hideomi who set the fire together and burned your parents to death." Ze Yu did not hide anything and said directly: "After setting the fire, Mr. Hideomi felt guilty and finally chose to save you from the fire. His face was also disfigured by the fire."
"After knowing the truth, you will definitely not let go of the murderer who killed your parents, right? Even if it is Mr. Hideomi whom you love deeply."
"Kid, you..."
Miss Hinata showed a look of shock, and for a moment, she was speechless.
Because everything Ze Yu said was correct, he told the truth of that year.
Miss Hinata originally wanted to ask Ze Yu how he knew about this, but at this point, there was no need to do so.
She knew that no matter how the other party knew about this, it was too late. Even a child knew about this...
The adults must have known about this, right? And the president...
Ms. Hyuga was silent.
"So, it was Miss Hinata who killed Mr. Hideomi?" Haibara Ai asked Sawaha who was standing next to her, with some curiosity in her eyes.
"No, Mr. Hideomi committed suicide, and the suicide note was written by him himself." Sawaha replied.
"Is that so?" Huiyuan Ai nodded: "The murderer of my father whom I must kill is also the person I love deeply. In the end, the other party committed suicide... Is this also a kind of happiness?"
At least you don't have to do it yourself, which saves you the hassle.
But discomfort is certainly unavoidable.
"This is not happiness..." Miss Hinata suddenly spoke up, silently.
She had resigned herself to her fate.
"But at least it will feel better if you don't do it yourself, right?" Ze Yu said.
After thinking for a while, he added, "Also, the kettle filled with gasoline that you placed in the room should also be prepared for suicide, right?"
"I poured it out for you, you're welcome."
Miss Hinata fell into silence again for a long time, with two lines of tears flowing down the corners of her eyes.
Unlike the original time and space, Miss Hinata in the original work was pushed to the limit by the two detectives. With no way out, she wanted to ignite the gasoline in the kettle and commit suicide in the room.
But now, the people communicating with her are Sawaha and Haibara Ai, they are two very cute children. When talking to Miss Hinata, they did not use the coercive method of detectives in identifying the murderer. Instead, it was like the advice between true friends.
Therefore, Ze Yu and the others did not put too much pressure on Miss Hinata so as not to overwhelm her nerves.
She didn't want to commit suicide now, she had given up the idea, but she just felt very tired and exhausted... Ze Yu looked at Miss Hinata quietly, then called Uncle Maori.
"Hello, is this Uncle Maori? I have found the person who killed Mr. Guangming. You can come over."
.........
Half a day later, it was over.
After communicating with Sawaha, Miss Hinata had already accepted her fate. When Inspector Megure and others arrived, Miss Hinata directly confessed her guilt and admitted the crimes she had committed. She also recounted the events of the past.
After knowing what happened that year, even the hot-tempered Nobuko fell silent.
So does everyone else.
Even the members of the Nagato family, who are relatives of the two deceased, could not help but feel complicated at this moment.
Although Nobuko and Yasue did not hate Miss Hinata, they did not forgive her either.
In the end, it was the president who forgave Miss Hinata on behalf of the Nagato family, or rather...
The person who apologized was the president.
That's right, even though his son and son-in-law were dead, he still didn't blame Miss Hinata. Instead, he felt very guilty.
The reason is simple. Hideomi committed suicide because of guilt, and the responsibility does not lie with Miss Hinata.
As for Nagato Mitsukoshi's death, it was because he made a mistake first, so it was only natural that he was killed.
What's more, Nagato Mitsuki wanted to kill the current president and seize the throne that belonged to him, but Miss Hyuga stopped him and pushed Nagato Mitsuki down, causing him to be pierced through the chest by the steel guardrail...
Strictly speaking, the president should also thank Miss Hinata. If it weren't for her, the person who died tonight would be the president himself.
In addition, Hideomi and his companion made a mistake and killed Miss Hinata's parents. Now two lives are exchanged for two lives, which is barely even.
But the president still felt very guilty.
No matter what, the president cannot shirk his responsibility for not disciplining his son well and causing him to make such a serious mistake in high school.
Of course, the most important reason is because...
Miss Hinata is the daughter of the president's first love. When the president sees her, it's like he sees his first love.
The president could not tolerate the fact that his son set fire to his first love and killed him, so when he faced Miss Hinata, he only felt guilty.
It is worth mentioning that the pen held in Miss Hinata's hand was said to be left to her by her father, but in fact...
That was a gift that the president gave to Miss Hinata's mother a long time ago. At that time, they were both very young and were in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.
After knowing this fact, Miss Hinata felt very complicated, just like Nobuko and the others.
"...I won't ask you to forgive Hideomi's sins, but you are still so young and have a long life ahead of you. If you truly love Hideomi, then live well on his behalf..."
The president smiled and consoled.
Ms. Hinata's eyes turned red and she couldn't hold it back any longer and started to cry softly.
Seeing this scene, Ze Yu suddenly remembered what Haibara Ai had said before.
