As soon as he opened the door, he saw a messy sofa with Kosagawa Maho sleeping in an unsightly posture.
Seeing this, Ye Shenkong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, walked over the scattered clothes on the ground, walked forward and asked.
"Inspection Xiao Sagawa, did you have a fight with the sofa last night?"
As if hearing Yagami Sora's voice, Kosagawa Maho on the sofa turned over like a salted fish.
Seeing this, Ye Shenkong felt helpless and coughed twice.
"Inspection, Sagawa-chan? Is it time to get up?"
"If you continue to sleep, the sun will shine on your butt."
Hearing this, Kosagawa Maho's eyelashes trembled and he said vaguely.
"Well... sleep for another ten, ten..."
"Ten minutes?"
"...Ten hours."
With this kind of mental state, he probably didn't sleep last night... Ya Shenkong glanced at her.
"Buzz..."
Suddenly, a strange vibration came from somewhere between the sofa.
The moment the vibrations sounded, Kosagawa Maho, who had been unconscious one second, jumped up like a stress reaction the next second.
Lying on the sofa, he hurriedly took out the mobile phone that had fallen into the gap of the sofa, put it to his ear and answered the call, saying loudly.
"Yes, this is Xiao Sagawa!"
"Hey? There was a murder case in Meguro District? But I have already asked for leave... No, no, no, no, I am not dissatisfied with my work. I will rush over now. Please inform me if you can!"
After he hung up, Ye Shenkong asked curiously.
"Inspection Xiao Sagawa, who called?"
Kosagawa Maho pouted and stretched shakily.
"This is the Higurashi Police Department, my supervisor at work."
She paused and looked at Ye Shenkong in confusion.
"What's wrong, why are you looking at me like that?"
"Inspection, you...do you still have a job?"
Ye Shenkong's eyes were full of shock.
"What kind of image do I have in your mind?"
Kosagawa Maho explained angrily.
"This is a disguise that the captain applied for us. After all, if we go around without a clear identity, it will easily cause unnecessary trouble."
"Of course, the true identity of the members of my fifth division cannot be exposed to them."
Division 5...I bet there is more than one team like yours...
Ye Shenkong raised his collar and said calmly.
"In that case, let's go."
"Go? Where?" Kosagawa Maho was stunned.
"Go to the crime scene." Yagami said matter-of-factly.
"Since there is a case, as a detective, there is no reason for me not to be present, right?"
"I should have a certain understanding of my professionalism, Xiao Sagawa. Of course, we can discuss the cost issue after the case is solved..."
"Stop, I said stop!"
Kosagawa Maho looked sideways at Yagami Sora and interrupted.
"No matter what kind of case, we, the elites of the Metropolitan Police Department, will handle it, so you don't have to worry about it."
"Really, how could I take a high school student to an important crime scene? Officer Higurashi will scold me to death."
Sure enough, what unfolds in the comics doesn't work in reality...
Yagami sighed, expressed his understanding of Kosagawa Maho's behavior, and took the initiative to give in.
"In this case, if Inspector Xiao Sagawa encounters any difficulties in the case, you can ask me for help online and I will give my suggestions."
Yesterday, Kosagawa Maho had already taken the initiative to add him as a friend on his line. So far, he has not chatted and is just lying quietly in the friend column.
"Huh? Are you so kind?" Kosagawa Maho asked doubtfully.
"Of course, it's not free." Ye Shenkong explained.
"But it's not expensive, just treat us to a big meal."
Kosagawa Maho stared at Yagami Sora warily, with an expression on his face as if he had seen through your little tricks, and hummed.
"Hmph, do you think I will be fooled by you?"
"As long as I agree, no matter what the case is, as long as you make some suggestions, I will treat you to dinner, right?"
"Looking at how skilled you are, do you often use this method to enjoy food and drink?"
Ye Shenkong said helplessly.
"Inspector Xiao Sagawa misunderstood. I will only receive compensation when the inspector thinks my suggestions are useful. If the inspector thinks my suggestions are useless, everyone will just pretend that nothing happened... No, I will admit Xiao Sagawa
Sagawa inspections are professional.”
Sensing the strange look in Kosagawa Maho's eyes, Yagami Sora changed his words in time.
"That's fair."
Hearing the word "professional", Kosagawa Maho's eyes suddenly lit up.
She got up from the sofa, full of energy.
"Okay, then I'm going to get ready to change clothes."
"I'll avoid it."
After hearing the words, Ye Shenkong turned around and walked out of the door.
"Hey, come back."
Kosagawa Maho suddenly called out to him.
"What's the matter? You don't even need help getting dressed during inspections..."
Ye Shenkong turned around and said casually.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed.
Looking behind him, Kosagawa Maho, who had already changed into a police officer uniform and even had his hair tied up, looked slightly surprised.
"Inspection Xiao Sagawa, you..."
Seeing the shocked expression on the other side's face, Kosagawa Maho's face was clearly filled with pride, and he raised his head and said.
"What's the matter? As a ninja, isn't it common sense to be able to change clothes instantly?"
"You said you were a detective, but in the end you couldn't even imagine this. Your professional qualities are nothing more than that."
Looking at the proud Sagawa Maho in front of him, Yagami Sora couldn't help but frown slightly.
It seems that it is necessary to install a high-speed camera in the office.
There is no other reason than that I am simply interested in the process of instantaneous cross-dressing.
...
Meguro District.
In a beautifully decorated single-family villa.
Amid the blood splattering everywhere in the room, a middle-aged man lowered his head and leaned back on a chair.
His hands hung helplessly on both sides of his body, and his whole body was no longer breathing.
And on his neck, there were several hideous wounds.
Next to the cordon that had just been set up, a police officer was holding a cardboard and reporting to Officer Higurashi.
"The deceased's name was Tatsuya Kamikawa. He was 47 years old and ran a company in Tokyo. He was found dead in the living room at 6:33 today."
"It is initially determined that the cause of death was damage to the trachea in the neck. In addition, there were a total of more than 40 stab wounds on the deceased's body, distributed throughout the body."
"A vicious murder..." Officer Higurashi frowned.
"In short, it's better to block the news first and don't let the media know about it, otherwise they will report it with added fuel and jealousy."
After all, murders with such vicious means are rarely seen in this peaceful era, so people tend to pay great attention to such things.
If it cannot be detected in time, it will undoubtedly have a great negative impact on the prestige of the Metropolitan Police Department.
If this happens, then Higurashi Twelve, who is in charge of this case, can directly submit his resignation.
"I understand," the police officer said seriously.
Officer Higurashi nodded, then remembered something and asked quickly.
"By the way, have you contacted the person you were asked to contact?"
"Officer Higurashi, don't worry, the other party is already on his way." the police officer replied.
Hearing this, Officer Higurashi suddenly gained some confidence in his eyes, and his voice naturally became louder, and he continued to analyze the case and asked.
"Who was the first person to discover the body, and why did he come to the victim's house so early?"
"If the victim was already dead at that time, who opened the door for him?"
"He is an employee of a cleaning company. Because Tatsuya Kamikawa has been busy with business these years, he often works overtime at the company and does not go home, and he remains single, so the hygiene at home has always been cleaned by the cleaning company, so the other party also has
The spare key to Tatsuya Kamikawa’s home will be cleaned when Tatsuya Kamikawa is not at home.”
the police officer replied.
"And according to the person who discovered it, he entered the villa with a spare key and cleaned each room as usual. When he arrived at Kamikawa Tatsuya's living room, he found that the door was locked."
"This aroused the alert of the discoverer, because Tatsuya Kamikawa never had the habit of locking the door, and an obvious odor could be smelled from inside through the crack in the door."
"So the discoverer chose to forcefully break in and discovered the body of Tatsuya Kamikawa."
"So, is this still a secret room murder case?"
A somewhat curious voice came from beside the two of them.
"Inspection."
After seeing the face of the visitor clearly, the police officer immediately saluted.
"Xiao Sagawa, you are here."
Officer Higurashi turned around and looked at the other party.
"Higurashi Police Department, Xiaosagawa is here to report!"
Kosagawa stood at attention with his slender legs together and saluted Officer Higure seriously.
Officer Higurashi nodded and ordered.
"Okay, let's get to work. The first thing is to take photos and collect evidence at the crime scene."
"yes!"
Kosagawa Maho said solemnly.
She took out her mobile phone, stepped forward and carefully took pictures around the body from all angles, and then took pictures of the crime scene.
Seeing this, Officer Higurashi couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hands.
"Osagawa, camera, use camera."
"Ah, sorry."
Kosagawa Maho stuck out his tongue to apologize, and then took the SLR camera from the police officer on the side.
After the filming was completed, while Officer Higurashi and the police officers were discussing the case, she quietly stepped aside.
I took out my phone again and opened line.
Typed quickly.
"Are you there?"
"picture."
"Pictures pictures pictures..."
"Can you see clearly? I have sent you the pictures of the crime scene. Please give me your suggestions quickly."
After sending these, Kosagawa Maho couldn't help but feel a little hopeful.
Looking forward to what advice Yagami Sora will give her.
But it was a vicious murder, a secret room murder, something like that...
Even Yagami Sora might not be able to solve such a complicated problem just by relying on the photos she sent, right?
But to Kosagawa Maho's surprise, within a few minutes, her cell phone buzzed with a message.
So fast?
Surprised, Kosagawa Maho immediately looked at Yagami Sora's reply.
Ye Shenzong: "The conclusion is already obvious."
obvious?
Where is the obvious place?
Kosagawa Maho was stunned and quickly typed and asked.
"Do you think you already know who the murderer is?"
"knew."
"Who is it? Tell me quickly." Kosagawa Maho typed eagerly.
"The murderer is among the people present."
Right there?
Seeing these words, Kosagawa Maho suddenly felt a chill rising from his back.
Subconsciously, he raised his head and looked at Officer Higurashi who was communicating with the police officers, as well as the evidence collection staff who were busy nearby.
Is one of them the murderer who committed this case?
Who is it——
Suddenly, she suddenly reflected and replied angrily.
"You are really lying to me!"
"The photos I sent you didn't include the people at the scene at all. You don't even know who was there!"
"No, Sagawa did take a picture of the murderer during his inspection," Yagami Sora denied.
What?
Kosagawa Maho was startled, and then he flipped through the pages one by one.
In every picture, there is only the blood-stained corpse.
Suddenly, she seemed to have discovered something, and typed in confusion and asked.
"Why, you won't tell me that the murderer is the corpse, right?"
