Chapter 147 The big living person who disappeared out of thin air
Hashimoto Kenju struggled for a while, and his body gradually became still.
He solemnly stretched out his hand and took a breath, then jumped down from the table and said, "Too dead."
The suicide note was placed on the table, and the footprints on the table, chairs and windowsill were wiped away, and everything in the house was restored to its original state, ensuring that no one could tell that anyone had come in.
After coming out of the office, Xu Siqi reconnected the phone line, and then the two of them returned along the same route.
I just turned the intersection and looked over from a distance. In the phone booth across the street, Kobayashi Hikoro was making a call.
Xu Siqi thought for a moment and whispered a few words to Zheng Zheng in a low voice.
He smiled solemnly and said: "This is a good idea. Okay, you can go back and leave the rest to me."
Xu Siqi walked for ten minutes and took the tram to leave Sanma Road.
After thinking about it seriously, he walked towards the nearby cold drink shop.
After being a patrol officer for such a long time, he basically knows a little about the places patrol officers like to go.
The weather is so hot that it is impossible for police officers to patrol the streets all day long. The cold drink stalls on the street are the most suitable places to rest, which can relieve the heat and quench thirst without delaying work.
Sure enough, at the cold drink stall not far ahead, there were four patrol officers sitting in a row on a bench, all holding cold drinks such as soda and plum juice in their hands.
After solemn and secret observation, he recognized one of the patrol officers, He Shi. He pretended to be casual, stepped into the cold drink stall, and said: "Boss, have a bottle of orange soda, the cooler the better, do you want it?"
It’s going to be so hot!”
"Seriously, this way!"
"Hey, Lao He, the brothers are all resting."
"Why don't you just rest? It's not like you plainclothes team, who just find a place to hide, stare at me and then dare to say that they are going to investigate the case."
"You're not taxed if you say sarcastic words, right?"
"What's wrong? Did you wrongfully accuse your plainclothes team?"
"Look at how sweaty I am. I just chased a thief who broke into an empty door. I chased him for a full twenty minutes. I almost vomited blood. You just found a place to hide. How dare you speak!"
Master He chuckled: "Brother? Are you kidding me? Don't mind."
"Do you mind if you talk nonsense? If it reaches the ears of the Chief Inspector, our plainclothes team will still be able to hang out! Lao He? Is that you today? If it were anyone else, I would have been in trouble with him!
"He took a serious sip of the soda and said pretending to be dissatisfied.
"That's right, that's right, between us brothers, who is following whom?"
"Huh? If you want to be promoted to an official position? You have to solve more cases and strive for opportunities to receive awards for meritorious service..."
Zheng Zheng was secretly anxious, worried that if he delayed for too long, he would miss the next good show.
The problem is, can't this matter be too urgent? You must lure the police officers to go to the school area proactively, so as not to cause suspicion on you later.
Is it best to put Kobayashi Hikoro inside? If the patrol fails to arrive in time, there is nothing that can be done.
Master He asked: "Seriously? Have you caught the thief?"
He shook his head solemnly, drank all the soda in one breath, and said: "Today is a public holiday? I guess there will be a lot of break-ins? I'll try my luck later."
Watching him solemnly walk away, Master He also stood up and said, "Brothers, let's go and try our luck!"
"Where can we try our luck?" asked a patrolman.
Master He thought for a while: "School is on holiday, let's go there for a walk."
…
I called the phone over and over again, but no one answered.
Hikoro Kobayashi was puzzled. Xiaozhi must have informed Kenju Hashimoto, and he should have waited in the office. How could it be that no one answered the phone for so long?
He thought for a while and dialed Xiaozhi's home phone number.
After the call was connected, he said: "I am my cousin, has Liwei gone home?"
"No. It's impossible for him to go home when he's on duty, at least until four o'clock in the afternoon." Xiaozhi replied.
"okay, I get it."
"cousin……"
"What?"
"Didn't you see Li Wei?"
"I called his office, but no one answered. I guess he went to the bathroom."
"Oh, just wait a little longer."
"OK."
After hanging up the phone, Kobayashi Hikoro decided to wait a little longer in case Kenju Hashimoto had diarrhea, which was not impossible.
Ten minutes later, he called again, but still no answer.
Something must have happened!
Kobayashi Hikoro thought for a moment and walked towards the Muerdo Mission School. As Kenju Hashimoto's upline, he must keep track of the movements of his downline.
If anyone asked, he could use his cousin identity as a cover.
Kobayashi Hikoro also did not choose to go through the main entrance, and followed the path outside the courtyard wall to the corner gate.
The corner door was ajar, and it opened with a gentle push.
According to common sense, if there is only one person on duty in the school, the main door and the corner door must be locked. Especially with a status like Hashimoto Kenju, he will be more careful than ordinary people.
Kobayashi Hikoro hesitated whether to go in or not...
The patrolmen walked over from far and near with rifles in their arms. This area was a school gathering area, and they were free to move around at will.
Master He shouted: "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Nothing to do, just passing by." Kobayashi Hikoro clasped his hands behind his back and continued walking forward leisurely.
When he got closer, Master He realized that the corner door of Muertang School was actually open. This was not a reasonable phenomenon.
He often patrols this area and is familiar with the surrounding situation. There is only one teacher on duty in the school, so it is impossible for the door to be unlocked.
"Quick, quick, catch up with that person just now!"
"Daping, go ask the teacher on duty to see if anything has been thrown and ask him to lock the door."
"knew."
"It's really possible to meet a thief who breaks into the empty door!"
"Let me tell you, he is not a thief."
"What is he if he's not a thief?"
"The bonus at the end of the month!"
The patrolmen took off their rifles from their shoulders and chased him with laughter all the way.
I thought I would be able to catch him soon, but I didn't expect that after turning behind the school, in the open space with an unobstructed view, Kobayashi Hikoro was nowhere to be seen.
"What a ghost in broad daylight..." Master He muttered.
Separated by a small river more than four meters wide, even if Kobayashi Hikoro escaped by jumping into the river, it would still take time to swim to the other side and climb over the nearly two-meter-high wall of the cotton mill.
When the policemen chased him, they were within five minutes of Hikobayashi Hikoro. Theoretically, this was impossible to happen.
The patrolmen stood in a daze by the river, wondering how a living person could disappear out of thin air.
Master He sighed: "Forget it, let's all go back. Maybe it's bad luck and I met a master who can fly over walls and climb over walls..."
Patrolman Daping ran over quickly and gasped: "Brother, something happened..."
"What's missing from the school?" Master He asked casually.
"The teacher on duty is dead!"
"died?"
"When I opened the door, my tongue stuck out so long, it almost scared me to death..." Daping gestured with his hand to indicate the length, and said with lingering fear.
Mr. He is also a veteran patrol officer and has basic logical thinking. He said: "I suspect that the person just now did not enter the school through the corner door. He probably just came out of the school. There was a murder in the school, and this person is very suspicious.
Big. Leave two people to guard here. The others will follow me to the scene immediately!"
Daping quickly explained: "Brother, it's not murder, it's suicide."
Master He was stunned when he heard this: "Suicide?"
"Hang yourself."
"Daping, you are still young, do you understand what a fake scene is?"
"So, what do you mean?"
"Whether it's suicide or murder, we have to wait for Inspector William's decision. Someone must be guarded here, just in case that guy can hold his breath and hide in the water..."
