Chapter Four Hundred and Twenty Four - Numaochi Kiichiro
This is a rather dilapidated house with quite a few pots and pans inside, and there are many messy mud shoe prints in other places, which shows that someone has stayed here for a while.
But why are there shoe prints here? Although the footprints throughout the room are messy, they have obviously been there for a while - if someone rested here, the traces of lying down would probably destroy these dried shoe prints.
Using the auxiliary processing capabilities provided by the auxiliary unit, Qianyu looked around for potentially valuable clues in the blurry images.
Apart from the homophony, is there anything else that is unreasonable?
After scanning around, his eyes rested on the window next to him.
On the window sill, there are quite wide and thick mud prints. If the thickness can be explained, the wideness itself almost means that someone stepped on it repeatedly and printed the mud on it many times.
Does anyone want to climb up from here? Why?
Raising his head, Qianyu looked at the ceiling above, and then recalled the observation results of the room he had observed from the outside.
"Officer Otaki," Qianha said. "Have you checked up here? A house with a sloping roof like this should have an attic, right?"
"You mean, above?" Officer Otaki pointed the flashlight upward. "Are you sure there is space above?"
"Look at the traces here," Qianyu pointed to the footprints he just found. "This footprint shows that someone wants to climb up, so there may be a place up there that can be settled."
"..." Officer Otaki thought about the possibility of this theory, and then chose to accept it. "So, where do you think the entrance to this attic will be?"
"If you jump from here..." Qianyu estimated the jumping power of a normal person. "You can also jump to the nearest beam."
As he said this, his eyes focused on the ceiling above the beams.
The auxiliary unit told him that there were some undetectable small cracks in the ceiling boards above the beams.
"It's right above," Qianyu pointed to the location of the fault that the auxiliary unit told him. "The entrance to the attic should be there."
Saying this, Qianyu put away the traceless umbrella in his hand, and then threw it upward after calculating the trajectory.
The Wuhen Umbrella accurately struck the spot where Qianyu had just discovered the abnormality. Everyone immediately saw that a gap suddenly appeared in the originally tight ceiling - a wooden board was briefly pushed up by the Wuhen Umbrella.
Although the wooden plank was then driven by gravity to reintegrate with the ceiling, the location of the entrance to the attic was completely exposed to everyone.
"The rest will be left to us, little brother," Officer Otaki's expression became serious. "You are excellent, but the Osaka police are by no means idle!"
Qianyu took Haiyuan Ai and walked a few steps to the door of the house - if Officer Otaki accidentally missed and allowed the people above to escape, his position would not be raided. If he had still stayed there just now
If you are in such a position, the opponent will fall from the sky completely when he jumps out, leaving almost no time, space and action space to respond. (It will also be difficult to resist the force of the opponent falling from the sky.)
Although Officer Otaki looks fat, he is actually very flexible. With a measured cry, he stood firmly on the beam, took out his gun and looked at the door of the attic. "
Get ready to take cover."
Saying this, he pushed open the secret door of the attic.
Apart from the sound of metal clashing, there was no other sound.
But this kind of metal collision sound is very abrupt here - the sound of metal hitting metal... Officer Otaki's first reaction was...
Frowning and poking his head into the attic, Officer Otaki shined his flashlight into the attic.
"Uh..." A painful voice came from inside the attic. One hand of a thin man was tied to a fixed iron ring, while the other hand covered his eyes.
"Numabuchi Kiichiro?" Officer Otaki asked tentatively. "Is that you?"
"Who are you..." A weak voice came from Numabuchi Kiichiro's mouth. "Hungry... hungry..."
"What?" Officer Otaki was stunned. "What did you say?"
"Give me something to eat... I'm so hungry..." As he said this, Kiichiro Numabuchi shook his hands bound by handcuffs anxiously, and the handcuffs and iron rings made a sound of metal colliding.
It turned out to be this sound... No wonder I heard such a strange sound.
"Who locked you up here?" Officer Otaki approached Numabuchi Kiichiro and asked.
"It's a police officer..." Kiichiro Numabuchi said weakly. "Food...give me food..."
"Police officer? A police officer imprisoned you here?" Officer Otaki was stunned.
"He is telling the truth," Qianyu said below. "Bring Kiichiro Numabuchi down first. Before, he had two lunch boxes every day, but today's lunch box is only one, which means he didn't eat it today.
enough food."
"He is handcuffed here, so I need to find a way to take him down." Officer Otaki said this, and began to try to unlock the handcuffs. "It seems that the handcuffs are fixed on the iron ring.
, so the iron ring needs to be removed..."
As he said this, gunfire rang out.
"Okay, the iron ring has been removed. Come, let me help you up, and I will find someone to arrange some food for you. You can eat slowly after you return to the police headquarters."
"Thank you, police officer..." Kiichiro Numabuchi staggered and tried to stand up.
"This was done by Sakata, right?" Haihara Ai asked after listening to the voice coming from above.
"That should be it," Qianyu nodded. "He imprisoned Numabuchi Kiichiro here, and then planned to push him out as a scapegoat."
In front of them, Numabuchi Kiichiro's weak figure appeared at the entrance of the attic.
"As expected, this guy is still like this. He looks neither human nor ghost." Haibara Ai looked at Numabuchi Kiichiro's face and described it. "I don't know what he has been through."
Right in front of them, the extremely weak Numabuchi Kiichiro actually jumped down from the entrance to the attic, and then fell to the ground in front of Qianyu and Haibara Ai! He was considered to be very lucky, if he deviated even a little bit, he would have to
It fell onto a pile of debris consisting of kettles, bottles, cans and other items nearby.
"Hey!" Qianyu was startled by Numabuchi Kiichiro who fell to the ground.
"Hey, are you okay?" Officer Otaki was also surprised.
"This is only a few meters," Huiyuan Ai said calmly. "If this can hurt him, then he won't be alive now."
"But he fell right next to these daily utensils..." Qianyu was speechless. "If he had fallen a little farther away, he might have been directly hit by the pile of debris and his head would bleed..."
At this moment, Qianyu suddenly felt that something was wrong.
