In the case where a third-year junior high school boy and girl were killed by a man at a fast food restaurant in Kokuraminami Ward, Kitakyushu City, local residents had sensed something strange about the suspect, Masanori Hirabaru (43), an unemployed resident of the same ward, who was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder of the male student (15). “Something strange started happening about a year ago.” This was the opinion of a man in his 70s who lived nearby and knew Hirahara, who lived in a house in Nagao, the same ward. He had been living with relatives, but recently started living alone. Noise problems, such as people making strange noises using a loudspeaker, became more noticeable, and the group gradually became isolated from the local community. Hirahara grew up in Moritsunehonmachi in the same ward. According to multiple sources, his family was wealthy and owned several condominiums and plots of land. He attended a local private high school and was a member of the basketball club. Several former classmates had the impression that he was timid and quiet. According to the owner (in his 50s) of a barber shop that Hirano frequented when he was in middle school and high school, he continued to visit the shop regularly after graduating from high school, and told them that he was working as a temporary worker and attending vocational training. In May 2009, I visited the salon for a facial. When employees asked her why, she happily replied, “Tomorrow is my wedding,” and “I’m going to have a baby.” After that, Hirahara is believed to have been living with his wife and daughter in an apartment in Nagano, the same ward. A woman in her 50s who lived in the same apartment building said she remembers seeing him playing with her daughter, who was in the early elementary school years. “He would greet people and was polite, and although he didn’t say much, he was a normal dad,” she said. The family suddenly moved about five years ago. He said his wife contacted him and said, “I’m sorry I was so busy I couldn’t say hello.” The woman’s expression clouded over as she asked, “What happened after I moved?” After getting married, she had stopped visiting the barber shop, but when she visited for the first time in a long time in 2020, she said, “My child is now 10 years old.” However, when she next visited in January last year, he was unable to hold a conversation when she asked him questions, and his eyes seemed unfocused. The store owner recalls, “He had completely changed.” According to investigators, Hirahara divorced more than a year ago. A former classmate who saw the video of his arrest said, “Everyone said, ‘His appearance has changed. “It’s a different person,” he said in surprise. “I feel anger about what happened, but I also feel sad,” he said, biting his lip.

He went to a vocational training center, got a temp job, lived in an apartment, got married, and then the next time they met he couldn’t even converse with her. That seems like an illness.
Just like Hikota, who killed an elderly couple by driving a Porsche at 200 km/h, there are also people who are large landowners and live normal lives and are secure until they die, so they do stupid things.
>>13 It was all so weird that the divorce made it even weirder. The marriage must have been a proud event for Yellow Sandals. Maybe she got praised by relatives who don’t usually praise her, and she probably got a lot of money from her parents’ home. She was killing people the same age as her own children, so she probably shifted the blame for the breakdown of her marriage to the children.
I guess this will lead to older men who are divorced and have children being labeled as the worst kind of potential criminals! What a terrible world we live in.
There should be a law that allows the police to have someone who is causing a nuisance in the neighborhood take them to a doctor so they can give them an injection to calm them down.
For Hirahara, it was probably revenge against his wife and child who abandoned him. His wife will be tormented by the idea that he committed the crime because she divorced him, and his daughter will be tormented by the idea that her daughter was killed in her place, as her child the same age as her was killed.
