Ryutaro Takashishima
Ryutaro Takashima, the owner of the company, was found burned to death in a wasteland by the Nasu River in Tochigi Prefecture in the early morning of April 16. It was 6:50 a.m. when the police received a call from a man that two mannequins were burning near the river.
Because it was so unbelievable, witnesses couldn't believe that it was a real corpse, but thought it was a mannequin, just like the mannequins we saw in shopping malls to display their costumes.
Ryutaro Takashima, a naturalized Chinese national, started a business in Japan and opened 14 restaurants in Ueno, Tokyo, as well as a real estate business and a clothing import business from China and Korea. Most of his restaurants are located in Ueno, and they are so concentrated that there is a food street called "Takashimajima-ro".
Ryutaro, 55, along with his 45-year-old wife, was killed and dumped by the river. Their heads were tightly sealed with plastic bags and duct tape, their hands and feet were tied, and they were stacked on top of each other, doused with gasoline, and set on fire.
Ayaken Hirayama, a suspect who bought tying equipment and gasoline according to the instructions of the "big brother".
A 25-year-old Japanese youth reported that he had turned himself in, saying that the incident might have something to do with him. It turned out that he bought adhesive tape and gasoline according to the instructions of the "big brother". But he has not yet confessed to who he was instructed to do.
The 25-year-old is Ayaken Hirayama and is a construction worker in Koshigaya City, Saitama Prefecture, Japan. When he turned himself in, he was still holding Ryutaro Takushima's belongings. But he insisted that he did not go to Tochigi Prefecture, even though his car was found near the scene of the burning of the body, and there were blood stains in the car, traces of the victim's wife's ride, and blunt objects.
Back on the evening of April 15, Takushima Ryutaro set off from his home, where his family lives in a 20-minute walk from Ueno, to visit the store on his bicycle, because every afternoon and evening he patrols his 14 restaurants and collects the cash from the store. Usually with his wife, and sometimes their 20-year-old daughter also helps. This day was no exception, Takajima Ryutaro rode his bicycle in Ueno, looking at his shop from house to house. Exceptionally, instead of riding a bicycle later, he got into a man's car with his wife.
The last time it was confirmed that he was alive was at 11:30 p.m. that night, and a camera in Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo, captured his footage. He got out of a van with a few people and walked to a place while his wife waited near the car, and after 30 minutes, he returned to the van and got into the van again with his wife and several others. But from this midnight ride, the couple's lives came to an end.
Coming into people's field of vision, he and his wife were found by the river in the early morning of the 16th, and they had been killed, especially his wife, who suffered a head injury and a sunken skull.
Takushima Road, where a number of restaurants owned by President Takajima are concentrated
It is understood that Takujima Ryutaro is a naturalized Chinese, and most of the employees in his store are Chinese, because he is famous for grabbing customers in that area, and his reputation is not very good, and some surrounding residents have heard the sound of loud quarrels. The staff shouted "barbecue" at the door, and pulled customers who were about to go to other stores into their own store quite forcefully. There have been several occasions when it was necessary to call in the police for mediation. Three years ago, he opened another barbecue restaurant very close to his shop, so the competition for customers is even more fierce. Takajima's wife is said to be a fierce person, and there have been cases of beating employees in the other store. In any case, the relationship with the surroundings is not very good.
Japanese netizens summarized the 14 restaurants owned by President Takashima, and the public review score is quite high
The reason why we were able to have 14 stores in Ueno is also the main reason for the epidemic. During the epidemic, many stores could not continue to operate and vacated their territories, Takashima Ryutaro saw the opportunity to open stores one by one during the epidemic, and now there are 14 stores.
Netizens commented that in the process of opening and operating the store, it seems that they have made a lot of enemies, and they started from a barbecue restaurant, and finally were killed and poured gasoline on the river.
Japanese criminal psychology experts have analyzed and pointed out that there are only two reasons for setting fire to the murder, one is to destroy the corpse, and the other is to harbor a deep hatred. In addition, as for the behavior of the criminal group, experts pointed out that it was not from a professional homicide group, because the amount of gasoline they brought was not enough to burn two corpses, in fact, most of the human body was water, and the criminal wishful thinking that the gasoline that could destroy the corpse was not enough at all, so that the prisoners saw that the situation was not right, and fled in a hurry, leaving an empty tank of gasoline at the scene.
As the police investigate further, it is believed that more facts will be revealed.
