Episode 42: Adultery
“It's totally dark.”
Hisao Kaihara's wife
was in a room that looked like a love hotel, having intercourse with a man who
was around 60 years old.
It's not Hisao Kaihara,
judging by his age.
Though I have no
interest in other people's private affairs, I continued to watch the scene for
a while.
Then, after checking
the name of the hotel, I opened my eyes.
“Hotel Caspian.....
time now is.......”
I wrote down the name
of the hotel and the time and date on a piece of paper I had close at hand.
“Okay, that should do
it.”
I didn't capture the
decisive moment of the affair in the photo, but if I could find out the date,
time and place, the wife would admit to the fact that she was having an affair.
I had unexpectedly
completed my request for an affair investigation in a matter of minutes.
◇ ◇ ◇
After the 250,000 yen
had been deposited into my account, I left the ATM and sent an e-mail to Hisao
Kaihara, telling him where and when his wife had been having an affair.
Not long after, I
received an email back.
The content was
something I had not expected.
[My wife confessed
everything when I revealed the information that Onizuka-san had given me.
The man my wife was
meeting was the president of a small business she met on a matching app, and
his name was Kazuya Konishi.
However, my wife told
me that the first time she met him, he took a secret video of her having an
affair with him, and after that, he threatened her with the video and made her
do something she didn't want to do.
I believe my wife. And
I forgive her.
So, I would like to ask
Onizuka-san for an additional request.
I'm sure the detective
has many contacts.
I would like you to use
those contacts to punish the man who blackmailed my wife.
The handling request
fee is 500,000 yen, double the previous fee. (TN: Approx 4.5k USD)
I have already
transferred the money to you.
Thank you very much.]
“…. It’s happening
again..”
Just like with
Sasaki-san, I have been asked to do a “favor” again.
◇ ◇ ◇
And according to the
email, he has already transferred the money.
“Who do you think I am......?”
What do you think a
detective is?
I'm sure you've
mistaken me for a handyman or a revenge agent.
The last time I took
care of Sasaki-san's revenge partner, I only did it because he fell under the
spell of detecting bad people, not because I thought revenge was a good idea.
I kill people out of
necessity in order to live, but I have no intention of killing good people.
If I believe the wife's
story this time, the adulterer is certainly a bad person in my sense of value.
However, this case is
happening in Kumamoto.
I'm in Gunma, and I
can't do anything about it.
“Wow, 500,000 ...... is
really in there.”
I just checked and the
amount has been transferred exactly 500,000 yen as stated in the email.
“...... can't help it.”
Let’s just take a look
at the man who was having affair with my clairvoyant spell.
Then we'll decide what
to do.
I gathered my thoughts
and headed back to my apartment.
