Nakayama Shizuji didn't even eat lunch, he took a shot of chicken blood, and rushed out of the Metropolitan Police Department with his two young colleagues.

Bai Chuan envied his young and energetic appearance, which reminded him of his past self.

Seeing Shirakawa looking at his juniors and looking at Nakayama Shizuji's back with relief, Mouri Shuichi frowned unconsciously.

He coughed twice and said,

"Kuragi-kun, you are such a strange boy."

"Police Maori, everyone has his own uniqueness. Maybe my uniqueness lies in my strangeness."

Bai Chuan teased.

Saya Shiraki covered her mouth and chuckled, seemingly amused by Shirakawa's cold joke.

Mouri Shuichi didn't find it funny at all. He glared at his subordinates seriously, "Are you done with anything?"

"No, senior, it's time for lunch, why don't we go to the cafeteria to eat together?"

Saya Shiraki obviously addressed the second half of her sentence to Shirakawa, which made Shuichi Mouri feel a little upset.

"Okay, Miss Officer Shaye."

Shirakawa and Shiraki Saya went to the cafeteria of the Metropolitan Police Department to eat together. It happened that he had not experienced this kind of big family atmosphere for a long time.

The food at the Metropolitan Police Department is very good, and the windows are filled with all kinds of colorful dishes, and the aroma is instantly assailed to your nostrils.

The aunt who was serving food generously gave him two tablespoons of tempura when she saw such a handsome young man.

"Young people eat more to have strength."

Auntie blinked and threw an electric eyebrow, but Bai Chuan almost missed it.

Saya Shiraki said with a smile, "Mrs. Beikui, please don't tease Mr. Cangmu, he is not an adult yet."

"Then you should eat more."

The aunt called Mrs. Beigui said with a smile.

Shirakawa sweatdropped and silently reminded Shiraki Saya, "Miss Police Officer, I am an adult."

"Ah, 18 years old is not an adult. You have to be 20 years old."

Saya Shiraki said with a smile, and flicked Shirakawa's forehead affectionately, as if she was your sister.

Bai Chuan sweatdropped. This girl, who was much younger than him, was so presumptuous. If it weren't for her big breasts, he would have really wanted to teach her how to respect her elders.

After lunch, Nakayama Shizuji, who had taken a shot of chicken blood, had already invited the two suspects who might have the motive to commit the crime back to the Metropolitan Police Department.

After hearing the news of Riho Takezawa's death, neither Masuda Kazu nor Kitano Mahei showed any sadness, and were surprised with a hint of schadenfreude.

Two young female high school students vividly demonstrated the ugliness of human nature.

Masuda Kazu seems to be still rejoicing that after Takezawa's death, he does not need to pay back the money.

Kitano Mahei even said bluntly, "For a woman like her, immortality is an accident. She is allowed to always show off how rich she is in front of everyone. It's really disgusting."

Shirakawa guessed that if Kitano Marei could not provide an alibi, he would most likely not speak out his true thoughts so arrogantly.

"Didn't she help many of you? Even you once borrowed money from her, right?"

Nakayama Shizuji, who was in charge of the inquiry, frowned slightly and looked at Kitano Mahei seriously.

"Haha, yes, I asked her to borrow money, so what? She hinted that I borrowed money from her. She wanted to show off to others how generous and kind she is. I just helped her. It’s just a handful. Besides, all I borrowed was a small amount of money. It’s not like I can’t pay it back. I’m not going to kill anyone just for this. Uncle, if you want to be suspicious, just suspect Masuda Kazu. She is that woman’s biggest creditor. It’s probably because of the repayment. Not being able to afford debt gave rise to murderous intentions.”

"What I want to explain now is your problem. I heard that you have written threatening letters to Riho Takezawa many times."

Kitano Mahei put away his gloating face and said slightly nervously,

"They are just ordinary letters. They are not as exaggerated as threatening letters. I don't know who is spreading rumors."

Nakayama Shizuji's expression suddenly became very serious, and he looked at Kitano Mahei sharply,

"I'm not joking with you. We will judge whether it is a threatening letter. You just need to answer the questions truthfully."

Kitano Mahei was shocked by his appearance. He was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and whispered, "I really didn't kill anyone. If you hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that Takezawa Riho-san was dead."

After interrogating Kitano Marei, Nakayama Shizuji had no appetite for food at all, and he quickly interrogated another glamorous female classmate Masuda Kazu.

At this time, Masuda Kazu had put on a mask of crying and told Shizuji Nakayama that she and the deceased were the closest friends and hoped that the Metropolitan Police Department would investigate the real culprit as soon as possible.

Masuda Kazu's acting skills were so exaggerated that Nakayama Shizuji became deeply suspicious of her.

"You didn't kill yourself because you couldn't repay your huge debt, right?"

"Mr. Police Officer, don't be scary. I have never wanted to kill my best friend. Besides, I can always ask her to borrow money while she is alive. I am really sad when she dies."

Masuda Kazu indirectly exposed that she had used the deceased as an ATM. She immediately covered her mouth and looked at the police officer in front of her nervously.

"What were you doing from 12 o'clock last night to 1 o'clock this morning?"

"I'm sleeping."

"Who can prove it?"

"Naruse Sumino can prove that she stayed at my house last night and we rested together. Well, my parents can also prove it."...

After sending the two people away, Nakayama Shizuji sent all the results of the inquiry to Mouri Shuichi.

Mouri Xiu touched his beard and asked Bai Chuan for his opinion.

"Kuragi-kun, what do you think?"

"Based on the current information, we can basically rule out the possibility that they committed the crime. Let's start with the victim's itinerary last night."

Bai Chuan said calmly.

Maori Xiu nodded, "I think so too. I've already asked people to investigate the vendors on that street. There should be feedback soon."

"Kuragi-kun, do you think this could be the work of a psychopathic killer?"

Shuichi Mouri asked again.

This sentence was obviously a test, but Baichuan still told the truth out of professional ethics.

"Based on the current information, it is not necessarily the work of a psychopathic killer, it may also be an act of revenge. The victim was kneeling on the ground with a cross tied behind her back. It is obvious that the murderer believed that she was guilty and needed to atone for her sins.

“Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that he is a fanatical pagan, or a murderer who thinks he has faith, or a psychopathic killer.

"In either case, we must find him as soon as possible to avoid a second victim."

"If it's revenge, there's a high probability that there won't be a second victim, right?"

Shiraki Saya asked.

Bai Chuan was noncommittal, "It's hard to say."

"Based on the information collected so far, I think the most suspicious person is still the contact person of the victim's last phone call, Yanagisawa Koichi."

Nakayama Shizuji analyzed, “Because he and the victim were in a relationship, but they were opposed by the victim’s father. The victim did not choose to side with him, but chose to follow his father’s arrangement and break up with him. Maybe he was against him. We lied, and it was he who contacted the victim frequently after that, and he threatened the victim to give him 1 million. The victim did not want to continue to be threatened and resisted, but he became angry and killed him. "

"What about his alibi?"

Shuichi Mori asked.

"Well, that's true." Nakayama Shizuji scratched the back of his head in confusion, "The reply given by the hospital is basically consistent with Yanagisawa Koichi's description. Yanagisawa Koichi returned to the hospital around 11:30 last night. When the victim died, he was still in the hospital caring for his unconscious father."

"Wait a minute, what is the specific time given by the hospital?"

Bai Chuan asked.

"At 11:30, the hospital's surveillance camera captured that he entered the hospital at 11:30."

Nakayama Shizuji replied.

"If this is the case, then Yanagisawa Koichi has the time to commit the crime."

Bai Chuan touched his chin and deduced, "The wound on the deceased's neck was not deep, just enough to damage the aorta, but not serious. In this case, a normal person could last about an hour before dying. Her time of death was early in the morning. 0 o'clock, that is, 24 o'clock last night. Push forward an hour, exactly 11 o'clock, which is the time when Yanagisawa Koichi said he said goodbye to the victim. If by that time, he had knocked the victim unconscious and scratched his neck. Arteries, let her slowly bleed to death, and Yanagisawa Koichi rushed back to the hospital, so it was too late. "

Nakayama Jingji's eyes lit up, "Really! I said the murderer is probably him! I have the motive and time of committing the crime. I will capture him immediately and interrogate him again!!!"

"etc."

Baichuan stopped Nakayama Shizuji who was about to rush out excitedly, "The time to commit the crime is indeed available, but the motive for the crime is not established."

"Why?"

Nakayama Shizuji asked in confusion, Maori Shuichi and Shiraki Saya also looked at Shirakawa.

Bai Chuan straightened his slightly messy hair and said calmly,

"You can't lie if you like someone's eyes. When Yanagisawa Koichi mentions Takezawa Riho, his eyes will unconsciously show warmth. This proves that he is not lying. He still likes Takezawa Riho. They The breakup was not due to relationship issues, but because of family reasons. Yanagisawa Koichi did not want to drag down Takezawa Riho, nor did he want to affect the relationship between Takezawa Riho and his father. Takezawa Riho was also a filial child, and he did not want to let it affect Takezawa Riho. Falling in love against his father's will.

"When Koichi Yanagisawa mentioned the classmates who were jealous of and hurt Riho Takezawa, there was hatred in his eyes, which proved that he may have thought that those classmates killed Riho Takezawa. So there is a high probability that he will not be the murderer.

"Of course, this is just my inference. We will ultimately have to rely on evidence to see what kind of information comes back from the barbecue restaurant."

As soon as Bai Chuan finished speaking, a young policeman ran over excitedly, holding the compiled neighborhood information.

Saya Shiraki took the information, looked at it, and handed it to Shirakawa, who was closest to her.

The owner of a late-night snack shop on Muyou Road food stall said that he had indeed seen Yanagisawa Koichi and Takezawa Riho, and said that the young couple often had late-night snacks in his shop, and every time Yanagisawa Koichi paid the price. The price is fixed within 1,000 yen and will never be exceeded, so the boss is very impressed with them.

Last night, the girl arrived at the barbecue restaurant first, and around 10 o'clock, the boy also arrived. As usual, the two ordered skewers that cost less than 1,000 yen.

At about 11 o'clock, the boy received a call saying that he had to leave for something urgent, so he left first.

The girl sat there for another 5 minutes before leaving, heading towards the subway station.

Other vendors on the street also confirmed the barbecue restaurant owner's story.

"We checked the surveillance of the nearby subway station and found no trace of Riho Takezawa. She probably did not enter the subway station, but the direction mentioned by the owner of the barbecue restaurant was completely opposite to that of Hushan Park."

"That means maybe she met someone before entering the subway station and was taken to Hushan Park to commit the crime? Or Hushan Park was the place where the body was dumped, not the first crime scene?"

Saya Shiraki asked.

Shirakawa nodded and handed the information to Maori Shuichi.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. In the last moments of her life, Takezawa Riho did not call for help or call the police. This means that it was an acquaintance who took her to the park, knocked her unconscious and bled her, and finally made her kneel on the ground with a cross tied to her back."

After reading the information, Maori Shuichi agreed with Shirakawa's view.

"Immediately expand the scope of investigating Takezawa Riho's classmates, friends, and life circles. Even those classmates who seem harmless and have no grudges on the surface, as long as they are acquaintances, check them all."

"Will this cause panic on campus?"

"That school has even had a dismemberment case, what panic is there to be afraid of?"

"Yes, senior!"

In order to prevent missing clues, Shirakawa decided to go to Hushan Park and Muyou Road in person.

Saya Shiraki rushed before Shizuji Nakayama and asked to go with Shirakawa, while Shizuji Nakayama was arranged by Maori Shuichi to do other things.

The two rode the motorcycles assigned by the police force. This time, Saya Shiraki rode again, and Shirakawa sat in the back seat of her.

They came to Muyou Road, parked the motorcycle aside, and went up to talk to the key figures.

There are very few surveillance cameras on Muyou Road. Except for a small bank storefront at the intersection and the traffic camera at the traffic light at the end of the street, there are almost no cameras installed in other places.

The barbecue restaurant that the victim went to last night is called Pingliang 12-hour barbecue house, located at No. 20 in the middle of the road.

The 35-year-old man Pingliang Yasuhiro is the owner of this barbecue restaurant. Many people on this street only do midnight snacks, but he started business at 2 pm and closed it at 2 am, which is equivalent to a fixed human-shaped camera on this street.

Shirakawa did not ask Saya Shiraki to show her police officer ID this time, but directly ordered barbecue for exactly 998 yen.

And said to Shiraki Saya, "You don't have to save money for me. I earn a lot of money from my part-time job. Please eat as much as you want."

Shiraki Saya was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized what Shirakawa wanted to do, so she cooperated and said,

"I didn't save money for you. I really can only eat this much. You know girls have to pay attention to body management."

"Saya-chan's figure is already very good. It's really no big deal to eat a big meal occasionally."

"No, no, if you relax once, all the previous efforts will be in vain, and I'm not very hungry now."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Taira Yasuhiro seemed to recall the young couple who came last night.

He shook his head and sighed, "Hey."

"Boss?"
