It seems that the person involved and Subaru Okiya are not the only ones paying attention to these two cases.
In the distance, in a room in the Riverside Mansion, a woman sat quietly on the edge of the bed, watching the TV opposite.
The dark golden curtains drape thickly, and the light of the setting sun slants in through the gaps, falling on the end of the woman's hair, giving the long, light-colored hair a hint of orange that symbolizes vitality.
At this time, a little-known station was on the screen, which was broadcasting news about a Goth Loli murder case. Although many scenes could not be captured, the final scenes of solving the case in one go were captured by the quick reporter.
Recorded it.
Chief Superintendent Lotta looked across the screen at the young detective surrounded by reporters, but his eyes seemed to pass through him and fall on another person.
After a long time, she sighed softly: "It's really similar."
"What does it look like?"
The door was suddenly pushed open, and a woman with eyebrows somewhat similar to Chief Superintendent Lotta, but slightly older, walked in.
Lotta picked up the remote control on the side, turned off the TV, frowned and looked at the person who had just entered the door: "Grace, I told you to knock on the door when entering my room."
Chief Superintendent Lotta, who had met the Tokyo group on the plane, had already changed out of her regular uniform. She casually wore a nightgown, and her high bun was untied and draped over her shoulders.
, which makes her look more than half her age. Her affluent life has made her well-maintained. When she doesn't deliberately make expressions, there is no wrinkle on her face, like a girl with a majestic aura.
The woman she called "Grace" quickly glanced around the room when she entered. It wasn't that she was deliberately spying on anything, it was just a habit that had been developed for a long time.
Therefore, although the TV turned off quickly, she still caught a glimpse of the conspicuous young man with black hair on the screen.
Combined with Chief Superintendent Lotta's previous self-talk, Grace vaguely felt that she understood something. She smiled and said:
"It does look a bit like him when he was young. I said, you are really deeply in love. How come you still haven't forgotten that guy after so many years."
She walked to the window and closed the gap in the curtains. Then she returned to the bed, sat next to Lotta, and raised her arms to hug her sister affectionately:
"I remember at a party when I was 16, you clearly said you only liked career-minded men, and even after you got drunk, you scolded the sweethearts who were hanging around you as 'wastes' and told them to spend more time pretending to be gentlemen.
Read a book - but now, your standards for looking at men seem to have changed a lot."
Although she said it more tactfully, Chief Superintendent Lotta still heard it: My sister was calling Jiang Xia Longping a loser.
Her face darkened: "You don't know him. He is a real hero, but he didn't wait until his time."
"..."
Grace looked at her carefully, and then she was very surprised to find that when her sister said this, her tone and expression were very serious, and she really felt from the bottom of her heart that Jiang Xia Longping was a so-called "career-oriented man".
She hesitated to speak, but finally couldn't hold it back and spoke softly:
"To be honest, I really doubt whether he was working seriously. In fact, I asked specifically before. He always said that he had some mysterious long-term plan, but in fact, until his death, there was not much progress in that 'plan'
. Even if there were some usable connections later, they were not used because of the so-called 'pursuit of greater development' - if Capet hadn't been deceived by his flashy plan, I would have put him..."
Halfway through Grace's words, her voice gradually dropped.
She met her sister's sinister look and curled her short hair hanging at the temples in embarrassment: "Well, you wouldn't scold your dear sister for that kind of guy, tell me you wouldn't."
As she spoke, she leaned over and kissed Lotta on the cheek.
"I won't." My sister did not give a disappointing answer.
It is true that Lotta didn't like to curse. But soon, she pushed away Grace who was hanging on her body, stood up with a cold face, refused to continue chatting with her sister with her actions, and strode out of the room.
"..."
Grace sighed at the empty room and murmured in a low voice: "But what I told is obviously the truth... Is it really because I had too little contact with that guy and didn't know him well enough?"
She saw the remote control thrown aside, picked it up and pressed it.
The TV turned back on, but the news had finished broadcasting. Now the screen was talking about a pigeon stuck in the window frame of the church and how people rescued it.
Grace let out a "tsk" sound, turned off the TV out of boredom, and turned to look outside the door.
My sister hates going out and rarely leaves London, but this time she actually traveled from the UK to Tokyo. In order to adjust her work and make other preparations, she really spent a lot of time on this trip.
Although her sister didn't say what she was going to do, Grace guessed that she was probably going to confirm whether Jiang Xia Longping was really dead.
"Judging from her current state of mind, she is probably dead."
Grace rubbed her hair helplessly: "Why didn't you ask me before you go? Our investigation has already confirmed that he is dead, so we have to make this trip in vain... Oh, terrible love brain, before
Why didn’t we find that we still have this gene in our family?”
Although she was still brooding about some past events, Grace soon shook her head:
Whether it's a hero whose plan failed to come to fruition or a thief who ate the funds, now that everyone is dead, there seems to be no point in continuing to struggle... Let's just treat Jiang Xia Longping as an underdeveloped hero.
Grace: "..." And even if you want to conclude that he is a fish monster, it seems to be very difficult - because according to her observation, on the matter of Jiang Xia Longping, people who hold the same opinion as Lotta actually do not agree with each other.
Not too little.
As she thought about it, Grace couldn't help but sigh in confusion and murmured in her heart: "Is that guy really that charming? He obviously looks... Well, okay, he only looks good. But he obviously hasn't accomplished anything.
come out.
"Are they too far-sighted and saw the bright side that I couldn't see, or are they simply confused?"
While talking, Grace took out her mobile phone and looked at the news that people had been urgently sorting out not long ago.
As she turned page by page, her blue eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of surprise that was difficult to conceal:
"I didn't expect Jiang Xia Longping's son to be quite promising, but his promising direction seems to be wrong... How did he become a detective, or a famous detective who is famous throughout the country for his sunshine and justice? This has nothing to do with his father's flashy plan
