be 27-year-old takahiro shiraishi a native of the city of Zama who became a key figure in this series of brutal crimes the unemployed takahiro lived in an apartment just 3 km from his parents house his life path was strewn with difficulties and gloomy events outwardly the shishi family parents takahiro himself and his younger sister gave the impression of a completely ordinary Japanese family the father worked in an auto part store the mother was a housewife but behind this respectable facade takahiro hid a deeply rooted selfishness and complete disregard for the feelings of others withdrawn and

alienated from childhood he is barely noticeable even in school photos the collapse of the family and the divorce of his parents pushed the boy to the decision to stay with his father during this period takahiro began to skip school making ends meet with part-time jobs in order to become independent as soon as possible it was then that he made his first unsuccessful attempt inspired by the example of other Daredevils who poisoned themselves with carbon monoxide from Charco after graduating from school takahiro got a job in a supermarket where he was known as a diligent and

reliable worker later he moved to a job at an electronics company at the same time the guy was getting deeper and deeper into the Dark World of pimping making acquaintances with dubious individuals in August 2012 when takahiro turned 22 he went to the infamous Tokyo red light district of Kabuki Cho there he got a job that consisted of recruiting girls for local brothel his monthly income reached 300,000 Yen about $2,000 including all bonuses and commissions however due to his Spen Thrift lifestyle takahiro did not manage to save even a Yen February 2017 became a turning

point in shiraishi's life he was arrested in Kabuki Cho for pandering and sentenced to 14 months probation with with a 3-year probationary period during the probationary period he worked for some time in a logistics company and then returned to his hometown in Kanagawa prefecture the return home was marked by voluntary seclusion takahiro spent whole days sitting in a semi- dark room immersed head over heels in the virtual world for Japanese culture such self-isolation is not uncommon because the local Society creates considerable pressure on the indiv idual it is no coincidence that Japan occupies the InFamous

first place in the world in terms of the number of every day up to 70 people voluntarily take their own lives here takahiro plunged headlong into the dark depths of the internet where discussions about death andde were raging he created five accounts on The Social Network one for public discussions of these painful topics and the remaining four for private correspondence skillfully manipulating his accounts the man established contacts with those who found themselves in a vulnerable state and were looking for Comfort this is how takahiro shiraishi's vile Journey began cynically playing on the weaknesses of desperate

people he laid the foundation for his final transformation into a ruthless killer in August 2017 the life Paths of 27-year-old unemployed takahiro and 21-year-old office worker meura Mizuki crossed in The Mazes of social networks Mizuki who was bullied at school and suffered from adaptation disorders often sought solace in the gloomy communities of like-minded people who were drowning in depressive thoughts the irony of Fate brought Mizuki together with takahiro during an unsuccessful attempt at a group on the beach this meeting also introduced the girl to another internet dweller 20-year-old tuugo nishaki the three gathered in the

park intending to take their own lives but at the last moment nishaki changed his mind about settling scores with life and decided to give himself another chance saddened by her friend's refusal Mizuki told takahiro that she was also not ready to take the Fatal step however later the guy managed to gain the girl's trust through internet correspondence and learned about her considerable savings now takahiro looked at Mizuki not only as a romantic Target but also as a source of easy profit an Insidious plan matured in his head preparing for the implementation of his plan takahiro

stocked up on the necessary tools he bought ropes and hacksaws and also rented an apartment within walking distance of sagamihara station which would soon become a gruesome crime scene the remoteness of the dwelling from crowded places and the absence of prying eyes made it an ideal springboard for the embodiment of the maniac's darkest fantasies under the pretext of the need to urgently make a deposit for housing takahiro swindled the trusting Mizuki out of a loan of 510,000 Yen about $3,500 3 days after the housewarming the guy made an appointment with the girl at his apartment

there he slipped a sleeping pill into her drink and when the victim sank into unconsciousness he strangled her with a pre-prepared rope but the mockery of the lifeless body did not end there the Pervert repeatedly the dead girl faced with the need to get rid of the corpse takahiro spent 3 days carefully dismembering mizuki's remains in the bathroom when the soft tissues began to decompose he stuffed the body parts into the refrigerator night after night the killer secretly threw the remains into the nearest dumpsters the greatest trouble was separating the head from the Torso in

order to mask it he had to buy boxes of salt and cat litter filler on August 28th 2017 takahiro continued his bloody path this time 15-year-old school girl Hanjo isara fell into the maniac's net a withdrawn girl who often quarreled with her mother about studying found solace in communicating on the internet one day after a particularly Fierce argument she ran away from home it was during this vulnerable period that Hanjo met takahiro through social networks acting according to his his usual scenario he lured the gullible girl into his lair where he committed the same atrocities

with her as with his previous victim the mysterious disappearance of Mizuki and isihara greatly alarmed their families who immediately sounded the alarm the police investigation revealed a horrific coincidence the last signals from the mobile phones of both girls came from the vicinity of sagamihara station in the city of Zama despite a thorough combing of the surrounding area no traces of the missing were found meanwhile takahiro lurking in his apartment remained unnoticed and Beyond suspicion the gloomy life path of 20-year-old tuugo nishaki a guy with high functioning autism made another tragic turn a painful breakup with

his beloved led to hospitalization and another meeting with his ex-girlfriend nearly pushed him to a fatal step fortunately tempt was thwarted but troubles at work only only intensified Togo's Despair and again awakened thoughts of voluntary death nishaki who was acquainted with Mizuki wrote to takahiro when he could not get through to the girl they agreed on a personal meeting shortly after that all suicidal inclinations mysteriously disappeared inugo and he even informed takahiro about his firm intention to live on but shiraishi sensed a Potential Threat in this a living witness could link him to mizuki's disappearance

and bring the police down on the maniac's head so takahiro acted quickly under the pretext of a friendly meeting he lured nishaki to him pumped the guy with and ruthlessly killed him just like Mizuki in isihara when there were already three mutilated corpses in takahiro's dwelling the stench from the Decay became unbearable in a desperate attempt to mask the smell shiraishi even resorted to trying to cook human remains but nothing helped the neighbors although they noticed the disgusting stench attributed it to problems with the sewage system not even suspecting the terrible truth and unwittingly indulging
