In the case of the arrest of a teacher at a nearby junior high school for the murder of a male resident of a house in Tokyo's Edogawa Ward, interviews with investigators revealed that a memo of "hypothetical questions and answers" that was thought to have been prepared in advance by the teacher in anticipation of an investigation had been found from a related party. The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating the possibility that he may have responded to voluntary interviews before his arrest based on this.

In February, Masafumi Yamagishi, a 2-year-old resident of Edogawa Ward, was found bleeding and collapsed, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department arrested Kosuke Omoto, a 63-year-old junior high school teacher in Edogawa Ward, on suspicion of killing Yamagishi by slashing his face and neck with a knife.

He also explained, "I had a nosebleed when I entered the house, and Mr. Yamagishi told me to throw away the mask with blood on it, so I gave him the mask."

In the subsequent investigation, interviews with investigators revealed that a memo of "assumed questions and answers" that Mr. Omoto seemed to have prepared in advance in anticipation of the investigation being extended, including these contents, had been found from related parties.

In Yamagishi's residence, footprints of the same type as the sneakers possessed by the suspect and a mask with blood stains that appeared to belong to the suspect were found, and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department is investigating the possibility that Omoto may have responded to the interview by making a "hypothetical question-and-answer" memo in order to match the items left at the scene.
