stand-in creed

"...following the three brats?

"Since the three of them know the detective named Nero, maybe they will meet him often. As long as they follow these three little devils, they can find Nero. But the problem is that my "appearance" is too conspicuous. It is not a problem to walk the same way on the street once in a while, but it is very likely to be found if you follow for a long time.

"More than that, stalking means disrupting schedules.

"Whether it's going to work or returning home at [-] o'clock in the evening, or even the time for aerobics at night, I can't allow it to be disrupted. It's impossible for me to ask a detective to follow... Wait!"

Yoshikage Kira suddenly thought of something.

Yoshikage Kira, who was sitting in the driver's seat, raised his mouth slowly, obviously thinking of a good way.

"Almost forgot, there is another person in my family besides me.

"Just let him investigate."

Kira Yoshikage's father died of cancer shortly after returning to Japan in 1987, and his mother died shortly thereafter. The spacious Kira family is only Kira Yoshikage.

However, Yoshihiro Kira, the father who brought "Arrow" back to Japan and Kira's house, and turned Kira Yoshikage into a stand-in messenger, is also a stand-in messenger.And it was the ability of his stand-in "Father of Atomic Heart" that made his father Kira Yoshihiro a ghost in the photo.

After returning home.

Yoshikage Kira went straight to the camera where his father's ghost was lodged.

"Father."

"What happened, Jiying!"

"There is a foreign detective named Nero who seems to be chasing what happened in the past 15 years. I need you to find out where this detective is."

"Hey?"

Kira Yoshihiro was taken aback for a moment.

Yoshikage Kira said very seriously: "There are three high school students in Putaogaoka High School named Yiyasu, Josuke, and Koichi. I don't know their surnames. In terms of appearance, they have cow dung heads like two bozokus, and a silver-haired boy with a figure like an elementary school student." Shorty, if you just follow the three of them, you will be able to find the trace of this detective, right?

"May I entrust this to you, Father?"

"Just leave it to me!" Kira Yoshihiro's eyes were sharp, "Someone wants to disturb my son Yoshikage's life, this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed!"

The voice fell.

Kira Yoshihiro hid in a photo and flew into the air of Morioh along the wind.

Yoshikage Kira nodded in satisfaction.

Unlike the conspicuous self, just a palm-sized photo won't attract any attention at all.

And tracking is not a mental job, the method has already been told to his father, if he can't even do this kind of thing well, then Yoshikage Kira doesn't know what to say.

Immediately, Yoshikage Kira came to the kitchen with a smile.

He took out his hands seriously, with a slight smile on his face.

"Honey, let's cook together."

……

The prisoner wants to find the detective.

Detectives also want to find the criminal.

A few hours back in time, the off-duty time in Morioh Town.

Du Wang Station.

Nero Zeppelin came to the coffee shop at Du Wang Station, ordered a cup of coffee and a piece of cheesecake and sat in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching the people coming and going.

Although Nero's original plan was to imitate Takayuki Yagami and dress up as a homeless man and sit on the steps and let people come and go, but after thinking about it carefully, even if he is a 1.9-meter-five foreigner dressed as a homeless man, it may still be a bit awkward. Conspicuous, they simply gave up the plan.

A pair of dark glasses that hide your glance from side to side will suffice.

Although it is possible to travel by car for the person you are looking for, compared to searching like a headless chicken in Moriwang Town, Duwang Station, which has a lot of traffic, has become the first choice.

"...a man like 'David Bowie'? "

Nero recalled the words of the victim's neighbor Shinobu Kawajiri.

The problem is coming.

Is this man the man I'm looking for?

Probably not, it's just that at this delicate point in time, the victim accepted an ordinary man approached by the other party, but the real prisoner was someone else.

How likely is it?

Ten percent?

Doesn't seem to be that high, maybe less than 5.00%.

But compared to the one in [-] possibility before, it is already necessary to look for it.

The issue is--

Can't find it.

From staying at Duwang Station around [-] o'clock until the coffee shop closed at [-] o'clock in the evening, Nero did not see any man who fit the characteristics, so he had no choice but to return to Duwang Hotel.

Nero never thought that when he was racking his brains, scheming, and almost pushing human intelligence to the limit of human beings to find Yoshikage Kira, Yoshikage Kira learned that Nero was investigating just by relying on "luck" own this matter, and sent his own father to investigate.

Nero's investigation did not go well.

It's just that the people who are not going well are not only Nero, but also Kira Yoshihiro.

At this moment, Kira Yoshihiro, who was hiding in a photo, floated in the air, followed the conspicuous cow dung head who left the school all the way to Dongfang's house, and hid under the window sill to eavesdrop on Dongfang's conversation.However, only such conversations can be heard.

"You're playing games again, Jousuke!"

"I've finished my homework!"

Assistant Zhan said bluntly.

However, Dongfang Tomoko is more confident than Josuke.

"Did you check the homework?"

"Check, check!"

"Have you previewed the content of tomorrow's class?"

"... preview!"

"Really? It seems that you have performed well recently."

"Hey hey hey."

"If your performance is so good, it is only natural that the wrong question set has been updated and supplemented, right? Later, bring your wrong question set and previous test papers for me to check. If you didn't write it, the game console will be confiscated recently gone."

"Ah this..."

Dongfang Jousuke was dumbfounded.

Kira Yoshihiro outside the window was also stunned——

Can you tell me something about Nero?

Chapter 49 Good night, detective.

Three days.

Three full days passed.

Neither Nero Zeppelin nor Kira Yoshihiro got anything.

Today's Kira Yoshihiro is also trying to listen to the corner.

"Grandpa, what is Nero doing these days?"

"Investigate the case, what else can you do?"

"...It's just that every time I call the hotel's landline, no one answers it, and I don't know where I went when I went to the hotel to find him."

Which hotel, which room, please tell me clearly.

Yoshihiro Kira, who was yawning in the photo, regained his energy and pricked up his ears.

However, the father and two of the Dongfang family didn't mention this at all, because there was no need to talk about it.Dongfang Liangping just ate his dinner and watched the news on TV, with a strange expression on his face: "I probably know where he went."

Dongfang Jousuke blinked: "Where?"

Kira Yoshihiro also listened more attentively.

However, Dongfang Liangping just waved his hand: "Don't bother them."

they?

Who else is there with Nero?

Dongfang Jousuke was very curious, but no matter how much he asked, Dongfang Lianghei ignored the boy, and finally muttered: "I hope this kid Nero can remember that he is only here to investigate the case, but don't worry about it." Don't fall in."

What he said was like a riddle, which made Jousuke and Kira Yoshihiro puzzled.

So where is Nero now?

In the alley of no return.

In the haunted house of Suzumi Sugimoto.

After another day of nothing, Nero is here again.

Originally, he was only used as a detective to report the progress of the work to the victim, but for some reason, as long as he came here, it was obviously a blood-stained and dilapidated haunted mansion, and Nero's tense strings seemed to return to Rome. The home generally relaxes and feels plant-like stability and tranquility.

In the dilapidated study room, Nero sat on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

Suzumi Sugimoto walked in and asked curiously, "Is it not going well?"

Nero opened his eyes: "If I have to say it, it should be very smooth. With the clues I have now, I only need to see him on the street, and I can get rid of him with the thought of "it's you". But the problem is that I can't see him.

"I need further clues, such as the scope of activities, such as interpersonal relationships, such as the place of work... It's just the last step."

"Do you need me to give you some advice?" Sugimoto Suzumi said with a smile.

Nero raised his eyebrows: "Oh?"

But I heard Sugimoto Suzumi say with a smile: "I don't know if you had this kind of situation when you were in school. You thought about a math problem for a long time, but you couldn't solve it, so you threw it aside to take a shower and eat or something. The result is over." After an hour or two, I took the problem out and looked at it, and it only took three to four minutes to solve it.”

Nero replied very seriously: "I have always got full marks in mathematics."

Suzumi Sugimoto blinked: "Are you human?"

"However, I encountered this situation when I was playing the game."

"You've finished your sentence at once!"

"Sorry sorry."

"Humph."

Suzumi Sugimoto pouted.

But Suzumi Sugimoto patted the armrest of the sofa immediately: "Lie down with your head on the armrest."

"Ok?"

"Don't worry about it so much, just lie down quickly."

"Oh."

Nero didn't know what this woman wanted to do, but he still lay on the sofa obediently.

Suzumi Suzumi said again: "Take off your shoes too, otherwise it will be uncomfortable if your legs are not there."

Nero complied.

Suzumi Sugimoto said softly, "Close your eyes."

Nero continued to do so.

Immediately, Nero felt a pair of slightly cold hands pressing on the acupuncture points on the top of his head and began to massage them.

Suzumi Sugimoto sat on another small sofa next to her, pinching Nero's head.The cold but slender fingers brushed the ends of Nero's hair, which made Nero feel a numbness, which was extremely comfortable.

"...is this?" Nero asked with his eyes closed.

"It's just a little service from the victim to Mr. Detective. After all, I don't have the money to pay the commission fee."

Suzumi Sugimoto said with a smile.
