Funamoto Tatsuhito lowered his head and remained silent, neither admitting nor denying it.

"Indeed," Akaso Kaze sighed, "hiring someone to clean up the aftermath is indeed very clean; I'm afraid you can't be traced through that part-time worker, but it's not without evidence."

Funamoto Tatsuhito's body tightened, and he looked up at Akaso Kaze.

"Evidence..."

"There are too many shortcomings in your modus operandi; the most difficult thing to deal with is the gunpowder residue. Since you chose a pistol as the murder weapon, this cannot be avoided. So Mr. Funamoto probably used the rubber gloves in the kitchen, right?"

Akaso Kaze paused and finally analyzed: "Mr. Funamoto secretly hid a pair of gloves when you had dinner that day, wore them when committing the crime, pulled the trigger through the lace curtains, and secretly returned them when you had breakfast the next day; that was when you sent the maid away to wake the mistress."

"The reason you were in such a hurry to have the maid cook herself just now was actually to have her wear the gloves to wash the vegetables, thereby wiping away the fingerprints you left on them; the gunpowder residue on the surface of the gloves would also be washed away."

"Of course, these are just my speculations; the police still need to verify them specifically. I believe that as long as everything is checked, there will definitely be results."

"I..."

Funamoto Tatsuhito's smile was bitter.

"As expected of the legendary Onmyoji lord; did you see it all in such a short time? It's as if you saw me commit the crime with your own eyes."

"But I don't regret it. In this half month, the half month I rested at home after being discharged from the hospital, I discovered that she held a party at home every week; these expenses accumulated, and she actually borrowed a lot of external debt."

Funamoto's face showed a sorrowful expression, not knowing if it was sadness or hatred.

"My wife always wanted to enter the entertainment industry, so she liked the social interaction of parties. I originally knew this, but I didn't expect it to reach this point; the savings were used up, then she used external debt, and when there was really no money left, she actually wanted to mortgage the only house we had left."

Akaso Kaze watched Funamoto cry and complain silently, without interrupting.

"She didn't care about this home at all; she was just thinking about parties and squandering."

Funamoto Tatsuhito gritted his teeth and continued, "When I stopped her from mortgaging the house, she even smiled and said, 'We can break up; you don't seem to have the energy to let me continue to shine anymore; there are countless new sponsors waiting for me.' She even said she didn't want Toshi, that she was sick of children, and that a divorced woman with a burden wasn't suitable for her star status."

Funamoto Tatsuhito's voice choked.

"Such words, as a wife and as a mother, are simply unforgivable."

"Is that so?" Akaso Kaze remained silent.
