Matsuda Jinpei's lighting skill is to fine-tune the explosion time point, moving the explosion time point forward or backward, within about 3 seconds.
Compared with the fancy skills of other ghosts, this skill gives people a simple feeling of "that's it?" at first glance.
But in a place where potassium cyanide is more common than stomach and digestive tablets, and bombs are more common than fireworks, this new skill can barely be considered practical.
…At least it’s better than Kiriten Dog’s one-click suicide.
In the distance, the foggy dog was still conscientiously clinging to the arsonist, acting as a locator, unaware that he had been innocently cueed again.
The arsonist had also left the car and was standing next to the canal, holding the hostage in his hand, confronting a group of approaching police.
——Although Sato Miwako lost track of the arsonist just now, she provided a long tracking route. Based on this information, the Megure Police Department quickly found someone to call out the surveillance to look for the images left by the arsonist when he fled in his car.
, and set up roadblocks wherever he might pass by, ready to stop people.
In the end, the checkpoints took effect and the arsonists failed to break through the police encirclement.
The car couldn't drive through, so he simply abandoned the car and ran away randomly.
Seeing that he could not outrun the police behind him, the fleeing arsonist had an idea. When he turned a corner, he grabbed a person passing in front of him, pointed his knife at the hostage, and yelled at the police:
"Don't come over!"
…
When Jiang Xia arrived at the scene, what he saw was this scene of confrontation between the two sides.
Behind the prisoner is a wide canal, and in front of him is a hostage.
Further outside, there is a half circle of police, and around the police are crowds of people.
Jiang Xia wormed her way from the crowd to the police, and then from the police to the front row.
The foggy dog hanging on the arsonist breathed a sigh of relief when he saw him, and quickly flapped his wings and flew back.
It originally wanted to land on Jiangxia's shoulder as usual, but upon closer inspection, it was discovered that there was a strange ghost there.
The foggy dog's movements froze slightly, and in the end he had no choice but to land on Jiang Xia, find a place to catch him, then raised his head, and looked at Matsuda Jinpei with slight curiosity.
When Matsuda Jinpei looked at the arsonist from the Ferris wheel just now, he saw the arsonist's car, but he didn't see a ghost hiding in the car.
At this time, it was also observing the foggy dog.
Matsuda Jinpei first glanced at Kiriten Dog's wings, then turned his head and looked at the tail of the mermaid next to him. Then he briefly showed an expression of broken worldview, as if he was wondering that there were monsters in the world... As a policeman who values physical evidence
, it was hard to accept for a while.
But soon, Matsuda Jinpei glanced at himself silently and swallowed the question.
As a ghost, it seems not qualified to ask the question "Why are there monsters in the world?"...
…
Jiang Xia didn't notice the strange mental processes of the ghosts.
——After moving from the crowd of people to the police, Jiang Xia's movements were much smoother than before. The density of the police here was much smaller, and most of the police who appeared here knew him and wanted to take advantage of him.
It's not difficult to get to the front row.
Soon, Jiang Xia looked over the shoulder of the policeman in the front row and saw clearly the arsonist and the hostages in his hands.
Unexpectedly, the hostage was a young man with long hair reaching his waist and a frightened expression.
...The arsonist may have rushed around the corner in a hurry when he suddenly saw a figure with long hair passing by. He thought it was a woman with weak strength and easy to control, so he grabbed her and used it as a hostage. As a result, he accidentally caught it.
a man.
However, although the long hair was very conspicuous, Jiang Xia had no time to look at it at this time.
——His eyes paused on the hostage, and then looked at the hostage's legs with slight surprise.
This hostage actually had a lot of murderous aura attached to him.
In addition, there were two shikigami tightly clutched on his legs. The shikigami seemed to be from different years, but none of them seemed fresh and had been created for a while.
Jiang Xia looked at the long-haired hostage carefully, and then at the travel bag he was holding.
After that, his eyes scanned around the melon-eating crowd, briefly stopping for a moment on a woman with murderous intent, and suddenly remembered the identity of the hostage.
——In Jiang Xia's "Case Memory Database", there was a stalker named "Nagai Tatsuya".
Nagai Tatsuya has recently been eyeing a woman named Nishitani Saori. Nishitani Saori soon discovered his behavior, and after hesitating for a while, she chose to resign and move out of fear, and fled all the way from Yokohama to Tokyo.
However, the peaceful life did not last long, and Nagai Tatsuya soon followed him - his family was well off, he could live a good life without working, and it was no problem to chase people to move.
Nishitani Saori was harassed for a long time, almost collapsed, and finally chose to call the police.
After Nagai Tatsuya was reminded by the police, he became furious. He prepared a pack of tools and planned to sneak into Nishitani Saori's house and kill the woman.
At the same time, Nishitani Saori also noticed the murderous intention from the stalker - she was riding the subway a few days ago, and when she was going downstairs, she was suddenly pushed from behind. She rolled to the bottom, raised her head with difficulty, and saw
Tatsuya Nagai stood on the stairs with a scary look.
Since calling the police before was useless, Nagai Tatsuya intensified his efforts. Nishitani Saori finally followed the Romans and gritted her teeth and thought of another way - to kill this terrible man.
Thinking of this, Jiang Xia once again looked at the long-haired hostage by the river. He asked the ghost to get into the bag the hostage was carrying and take a look at what was inside.
The foggy dog flew over and came back, quickly bringing the answer.
——The hostage's bag contained some lock-picking tools, as well as gloves, knives, hemp rope and other common tools for committing crimes.
Jiang Xia nodded secretly. It seemed that he was really the "Nagai Tatsuya"... He was so lucky. He just had a lot of murderous energy today and needed to replenish it.
It's a pity that there are too many police officers and too many people in the area. However, as long as Nagai Tatsuya doesn't commit suicide and doesn't tell the truth, it won't be difficult to leave the police as soon as possible after he is rescued.
By the time……
Jiang Xia was thinking slightly expectantly.
At this time, the murderous aura by the river suddenly swelled, causing him to squint his eyes.
Jiang Xia came back to his senses and looked towards the river in confusion. It took him a second to distinguish the arsonist and the hostage Tatsuya Nagai who were stuck together, and finally determined that the source of the sudden expansion of murderous intent was the arsonist behind him.
.
——The arsonist glanced quickly towards the canal behind him.
Then he held a knife in one hand to hold the hostage, and put his other hand into his large satchel, holding a fuse bomb with his eyes flashing.
"..."
Jiang Xia looked at the arsonist's subtle movements and the sudden surge of murderous intent on his body, and suddenly had a suspicion about what this man wanted to do.
