For the second week, I became a vest monster

As if thinking that his words were untrustworthy, the person on the opposite side blinked his smoky purple eyes, and stammered under the gaze of those silver-gray eyes: "Officer, I really don't know, you can't wrong me! I just came here to buy The artist thought the price I offered was too low and he didn’t want to sell it, and the master was in a bad mood, so he left me to talk about it today, who knew that this kind of thing would happen…”

Nagatsuka Sakuho squeezed the pen in his hand, gave Fuguya Rei a sharp eye, and with a good attitude to appease a suspect who is difficult to communicate with, he skipped the pit-digging session without a trace, After avoiding certain topics, he quickly ended the questioning after confirming that Fugu had delivered the information he wanted to convey.

"Thank you for your cooperation, please come back." The brown-haired young man stopped writing and looked up, "By the way, can I trouble you to call the next one?"

"Thank you, officer, don't bother me!" The person whose identity information was true except for gender thanked him, and went back to the waiting room to call the next person.

Nagatsuka Shuoxing secretly sighed.

Jiang Gu Ling hinted that he would help cover.So this was indeed an unexpected surprise?This guy probably hasn't really stayed here yet.That is to say...

While solving the case, he had to cover for a suspected contemporaneous man in front of his boss.

Of course, Nagatsuka Shuoxing did not believe that Rei Fugu could not be able to handle these things. In terms of police academy results alone, Rei Fugu deserved to be number one.

But the more people pay attention, the easier it will be for others to find something unreasonable when they check this identity in the future.Things that can be solved by working overtime, there is no need to let the same period who is wearing a silly white...silly black sweet skin take risks.

After roughly asking everyone why they were here and when they arrived, Police Officer Megure came down after surveying the scene, patted Nagazuka Sakiho on the shoulder, and assembled the clues.

The name of the deceased was Kano Nakai, a well-known painter.He has no relatives, bad temper, and no close friends.There are many paintings of myself hanging in the house.Apart from the housekeeper who had been hired for less than a month, the suspects were all customers who came to buy paintings.

The "suicide note" found at the scene was the handwriting of the deceased. The fatal injury was caused by a knife stabbing into the chest, a test wound on the wrist, and the front button of the shirt was unbuttoned, which is consistent with the characteristics of suicide.No one had time to act alone during the time of death. Judging from the investigation of the scene and the time of inquiry, this is an undoubted suicide case.

It's just that the suicide note is confusing, with the artist's own characteristics.

[Turns over the hourglass, removes the newspaper, and jettisons the sun.The man in the mirror whispers beside me, begging me to come... I will die. ]

A simple sentence is more like an unfinished poem than a suicide note, and it is difficult to get any effective information from it.Nagatsuka Shuoxing looked eagerly at Police Officer Shangmu Mu, and said helplessly, "I didn't study literature, but..."

The brown-haired young man pointed to the colorful abstract art canvas hanging high in the entrance hall: "If I remember correctly, the name of that painting is Hourglass, so maybe the others are also paintings?"

After some searching, I found that the nameplates indicated that the names were "The Sun", "Hourglass" and "Newspaper", but according to the suicide note, after taking down the paintings, nothing new was found, and the pictures were also fragmented and irrelevant.

"There is still no way to connect it with the suicide note." Police Officer Mu Mu touched his chin, "Although it was suicide, this suicide note is too strange..."

The paintings themselves have obvious abstract characteristics, but the colors of these paintings are distorted and mixed together. Although they are also bright and joyful tones, Shuxing Nagazuka has been looking at them for a long time, but it is inevitable that he will feel a little uncomfortable.As if being submerged in the boundless sea, watching the sea surface covered with layers of thin ice is oppressive.

He greeted Police Officer Mumu, and went back to the scene of the crime to check.

The deceased was sitting in front of the table, with a stack of newspapers piled up at the foot of the table, and messy books and a thick stack of letters piled up on the bookshelf.The sand in the hourglass leaked quietly, transparent and dense, it was originally used to press the weird suicide note.Her black hair was neatly tied, and her lips were still bright red, as if she was not going to die in peace.

The brown-haired young man put on his gloves, said offended, and checked carefully.

He stared at the blood-stained hands of the deceased with a dignified expression.There are quite a few calluses on Nakai Kano's hand, the most suspicious one is on the palm of her left hand, although the wound caused by the sharp blade has destroyed her palm, making it difficult to reproduce those details, but Nagatsuka Sakusei can be sure—that It is Mucang cocoon.

……

"Officer, can't you let us go? Please, please, I'm in a hurry!" Shuo Xing Nagatsuka followed the prestige, and saw his contemporaries clasped their hands together, begging a police officer in a low voice, "I'm really in a hurry! "

What is Jianggu doing?He knew it was impossible to let him go now...

"Sir, please wait a little longer. If you feel uneasy, you can chat with me." The brunette young man gently tugged his embarrassed colleague, stood in front of the muttering blond young man, and put his hand Handed him the water glass, pointed to the balcony, "Don't worry, it will be fine."

"Ah? Does the police officer want to talk to me? Okay... okay." Jiang Gu Ling caught the water glass stuffed into his hand, was quite obviously taken aback, and reluctantly followed the police officer to the corner.

The curtains of the balcony are drawn, only a dim yellow light is on at the top, like the afterglow of the setting sun, even in the daytime it looks gloomy.

Nagatsuka Shuo Xing leaned his body back against the wall, and his tone was as normal as if it was just a casual chat: "Is there something urgent to go back at home? You can call your family first."

You can contact the police department, the police are not unreasonable, right?

"It's not my family, it's a friend looking for me. If I miss it, I won't have a chance to see you again." The young man who was questioned by the police officer said in a regretful tone, as if he was caught off guard, "I still want to ask him to help with something. , I wish I could leave sooner."

"I'm really sorry, but if the case requires it, your friend should understand." The brown-haired police officer sincerely apologized.

He turned his head slightly to avoid the light on the top, and a small shadow fell on his eyelashes, hiding the look in his eyes: "Even if there is really something, why don't you tell your friends clearly?"

"This kind of thing... If the explanation is vague, he will definitely be more angry about being kept secret." The other party scratched his head, "And you can't get away from being involved in the case. Look at your current attitude. The police won’t let me go if I don’t find out the truth, right?”

is a hint...

"Ok?"

He didn't hear the reply from the gentle young police officer. The blond young man turned around, never wanting to meet the brown-haired police officer's frosty gaze. The emotions in those silver-gray eyes seemed to be flowing quietly under the thin ice. The river, in the calm, the waves are undercurrents, and the torrents are rushing.

The young man's voice was calm, he raised his hand to cover his eyes, and paused, "You know...forget it, where is your family?"

This sentence sounded inexplicable, but Jiang Gu Ling didn't look away, just blinked with the cup in his hand, and said in confusion according to the persona: "My family has something to do, so it's impossible to come and accompany me. What's wrong? Mr Inspector?"

"...It's suicide."

Nagatsuka Shuoxing was silent for a long time, then he took a deep breath, and his tone was as calm as the sea: "You can go back and explain to your friends."

……

Since the police wanted to close the case with suicide as soon as possible, they should not involve the police on the surface, and dealt with his new identity issue together.Hearing the meaning behind Jiang Gu's zero words, Nagatsuka Shuoxing suppressed his emotions and quickly made a judgment.

The brown-haired young man returned to those paintings, and pulled Officer Mumu over to him: "Officer Mumu, I probably know what the suicide note is about."

"Ah? Brother Nagatsuka, do you understand?"

"Because of the painting at the door, I was misled." Nagatsuka Shuoxing smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry for affecting everyone's thinking. The two sentences of newspaper and hourglass do not actually refer to the painting we found. Because it is not the same as the abandoned sun behind It doesn't match." The brown-haired young man pointed to the newspaper at the foot of the table, "This action should actually refer to finding letters from the mailbox."

"I didn't open the letter, but judging from the address of the recipient, it should be written by her lover."

The recipient wrote "My Little Sun".

Police officer Mumu hammered the palm of his right hand with his left hand: "So abandoning the sun means that the person abandoned her!"

"Perhaps." Nagatsuka Shoho picked out a newspaper that was placed crookedly under the table, "The last letter was mailed three days ago. This is the newspaper from last night. It reported on Miyagi Prefecture—— That is, a homicide at the mailing address."

The brunette youth handed the newspaper to the housekeeper: "Miss Nakaju, have you ever seen this person, or have you got a picture of him?"

"I haven't seen this person... But Miss does often look at the photo, I'm not sure if it's this person."

"This is it! I found it!" A policeman flipped the upside-down photo frame from the bookshelf, "Why is it upside down?"

In the photo, there is a person with the same face as in the newspaper, holding a book with his eyes downcast, looking peaceful and peaceful.

"It must have been someone who knocked down the bookshelf when he took the painting. Was "Hourglass" hanging next to it?"

"Is it "The Sun"? Nagatsuka, those two paintings are completely different."

"Ah, I'm sorry, I really don't have much artistic accomplishment." Nagatsuka Shuoxing calmly turned over the question of flipping the photo frame upside down, and deliberately picked out a casual tone.

"So is it a martyrdom? That's right... none of the people present had the motive or time to kill Ms. Kano, and the photos are indeed evidence..."

Nagatsuka Shuxing only silently shifted his gaze to the photo, and apologized silently in his heart.

Officer Mu Mu looked sideways at the brown-haired youth, and finally patted him on the shoulder: "Let's close the team."

Nagatsuka Shuoxing glanced sideways at Fugu Rei before leaving the door.There was an uncontrollable look of shock in that person's eyes.

It is true that the deceased committed suicide, but the interpretation of the suicide note is almost entirely false.

"Talk to your friends well." The young police officer whispered, fingers curled up, Mosuo passed the cherry blossom police badge, and walked out the door without stopping.

Sakuho Nagatsuka and Police Officer Megure sat in the car. The brown-haired youth still had the same gentle and indifferent expression, but his original aura became calmer. He half-closed his eyes, like a single ash in the ice and snow. bird.

"Brother Nagatsuka, don't pay too much attention to today's matter. It's normal for the police to contact you. They also notified me that this case was secretly handed over to the police. I was still worried about how to close the case without revealing what they said. Team... some lies are necessary."

"I know. I apologize for the lie I told you." Nagatsuka Sakuho hid his tiredness and said, "I found Kikura Cocoon when I was examining the body. Nakai Kano is very likely to be involved in the Miyagi case... No, one of the killers in many cases, that photo was used for targeting."

He exhaled slowly, as if exhaling the thick frost and snow in his heart, and continued: "I'm fine... I know what I should do, Officer Mumu, I'm a police cadet who graduated from the police academy. "

I had five very good contemporaries, and we had an appointment and a drink together.

The dark side identity he prepared for himself originally needed to do some evil things on the bright side.Inducing the police to make wrong judgments and disrupting the normal order of handling cases... These are all things that are very suitable for that identity.Even after this operation, the identity of the dark side will be more credible in the future.

It's just that this scene inevitably aroused some emotions, and he didn't adjust for a while.

He stared at the cherry blossom badge in his hand, his gaze was precious and fearful.His fingertips turned white and chilled from clutching the metal badge too hard, but he seemed to be drawing strength from this cold pain.

He has to come here again in the evening, whether it is for the fire or the truth, and the comprehensive survival score will be calculated tomorrow, so why don't he take a leave of absence?In case of twitching and falling to the ground in public... the image is completely gone forever.

"Eh..." Officer Mu Mu drove the car, feeling that the atmosphere was not right, and broke the silence, "The police also told you about the murder?"

You are really trusted by the police, Brother Nagazuka.

"..." In fact, he didn't say a word.

Nagatsuka Shuoxing turned his eyes away and wisely did not say these words.
