......... By the time Han and Brian arrived at the scene, the two of them were a bit confused because they had just seen a murder tragedy but there were only a few people in the place, in other words, there are only police officers on duty....
...Then Han began to ask one of the policemen there....
"Sir, why is this place so quiet ?"
The policeman replied "not better!!, so we can concentrate more on uncovering the motive for this murder ?"
"yes, I mean to ask that why almost no citizens come here, you could say absolutely nothing, instead of that strange ?" ask Han full of question marks
the other police responded "it seems like something they're afraid of, but we still don't know what it is"
"where did the man who found the body of this victim sir" asked Brian
the police said "he has been taken to the police station for further questioning"
"alright, then. haaahh, we start Brian, look for clues that may still be there or have not been erased here" Han told Brian with a lazy expression
"good".
...Han and Brian begin to investigate the place, but they first ask one of the police officers there to find out what way the victim was killed, what is the size of the victim's height and what the victim's job, to be able to get a fairly clear clue....
...then the police explained in detail. Starting from the behavior of a rather strange victim than usual, told by his family, work, until finally he was found dead....
"This we have asked the families of the victims, because the original victims of the area" the police began to tell
"the victim's family said she was in trouble, but did not show any distress or confusion at all, as her face was forced to smile, the victim's wife said so"
"how could he show such an expression ?" ask Brian
"we don't know at all, but that's what the victim's wife told us!" answer the police
"not that, I mean how could his wife give such information, instead of her own saying that the victim was in trouble. But she did not show a depressed expression at all?, he said ?, how can it be like that ?" ask Brian.
"Brian you're wrong, that's not what the real possibility is!" answer Han
then the policeman asked "what do you mean ?"
Han replied "meaning Brian, he thought that the victim was in a state of smiling depression, a condition where we make ourselves smile to cover the problems we are facing."
"so if it's not like that, then his wife only answers him with the feelings she feels for her husband, huh?" ask Brian to Han
"Yep, it's likely that's the case" Han replied
...then Han went down the place around the scene, while Brian still asked one of the police there...
"if the victim's height and the victim's job, how about sir?" ask Brian to the police
"The victim's height is 181 cm, age 27 years and work as a private employee."
"what was the culprit killed using?"
"we don't know what weapon the killer used yet, but he was definitely killed with a sharp weapon!!"
"which part was hurt ?"
"his stomach was pierced through, then his chest was also slashed, and the slash on his chest was not too deep, it was likely that he was stabbed using a samurai" the policeman replied
"The stomach was pierced through, then the chest was slashed. ..., and in addition I only tell you a little sir, if the samurai was a Japanese military nobleman in medieval times, and as a result, the samurai was a Japanese military nobleman, when it comes to weapons, it's likely a katana, but it could also be a machete, so the murder weapon is still known." Brian replied.
......While thinking about the weapon used by the killer, Brian decided to go along the place around the scene, which is likely a very useful clue.......
...After a long time observing the place around the scene, Brian noticed a tree that was like being hit by the slash of a sharp weapon....
"it may be the slash of the offender, but it misses. Which is my question, what sharp weapon did he use?, judging from the depth of this slash, it's like a slash of a machete." brian thought while looking at the tree
Afterwards Brian called Han
"Han, I've got the hallmark of the perpetrator" Brian said
after hearing that, Han came to Brian and asked
"looking at how to slash him it is most likely that the perpetrator was not left-handed, and he used two weapons at once".
"how do you know the perpetrator used 2 guns and he's not left-handed?" ask one of the police
"it could be said that he did not use a machete, but a machete whose tip was not too pointed, because judging from the slash on this tree, the top-most slash section here was quite deep." answer Brian
"but what about just looking at that part of it he used a machete and a samurai and was left-handed? that left-handedness remains one of my questions!" the police said
Brian told Han to stand right in front of him, and Brian took a step back, from the starting place, and he told the police what was likely to happen at that time.
Brian asks one of the cops to get him a twig, which he then directs to Han, then practices his way the killer slashes the victim.
" look good well, most likely the killer is a bit shorter than me. he wants to slash at the neck, but not up because the victim keeps his distance with him, he said, but at the time of the incident the victim stumbled so that the slash hit his chest, could be seen from the wooden root and the palm imprint that was behind Han".
"and also from the position of the slash that is on this tree" while pointing towards the tree
"continue how do you know that he also used a samurai" asked another policeman
brian replied "katana sir, katana!!.., I can tell he used a katana, from your information and from the inside of the hole in the place where the victim lay., I can tell you he used a katana., try to calculate how wide the hole is."
...One of the policemen measured the width and length of the hole, and the result.....
"The width is 3 cm and the depth of the hole is 20 cm" the police said.
"that's right, what he used was a katana. The width of the katana is only 3 cm, and from it the possibility of the killer does not want to stab more than this".
"Brian, it looks like the perpetrator also tied the victim, I found a rope nearby earlier" Han said
"meaning we have to find out the motive of the perpetrator" one of the policemen said.
"in that case, we will both conduct further investigations so let us take over from here" Brian told police.
"all right, if you need help you can call us" one of the policemen said.
...Then Han and Brian began to ask the people around the place, they asked if they were listening to the sound of someone screaming or shouting for help. But they said they didn't listen to anything that happened that night....
...Then Brian came to someone who was doing his job, the place is quite far from the scene, but it can still be seen quite clearly from there....
...Brian asked about the man's job, and what time he left and went home....
The man replied "I leave for work at 8am and go home at 5pm, at 1pm I go home for a while to eat" while continuing his work.
...Brian called one of the police to come to where the two of them were...
"Sir..!!, you can come here for a while" while shouting
the police came to Brian and asked
"what's up ?" ask the cop
"please take this man to the police station, I have further questions" Brian said.
...The man was shocked, and asked him what he was wrong so he had to be taken to the police station...
Brian replied "because you have a katana so I want you to come with them to the office, and don't forget to bring the katana too" Brian said
the man was against Brian's statement
" why is it only because of this katana that I can be taken to the police station" the man asked
Brian replied "you can ask the problem later, but you must be one of the suspects, because it carries a katana. The weapon used by the killer is one of them is a katana".
...Then the police took the man to the car, and also his katana was taken with him....
......................
...After that, Brian invited Han to go to the victim's family and ask about the victim in more detail....
...Then they both came to the victim's house located at the end of the village....
