"Well, okay." Sugimoto Hideki also showed a hint of fear.
He lowered his head and rummaged through his backpack, took out the mobile phone inside, took a look at it, clicked on it a few times, and seemed to be checking messages.
Then he put his phone into his pocket, "Everything is there, nothing else is missing."
"That's good." Sato Miwako pushed a piece of paper to him, "Sign this document, and then you can go back."
Sugimoto Hideki nodded, took the paper in one hand, and went to the inner pocket of his coat to get a pen with the other hand.
However, as soon as he put his hand into the inner pocket, he moved for a moment, then put it back awkwardly, and asked the policeman opposite, "Well, do you have a pen?"
Miwako Sato was a little surprised and handed one over, "Sorry, I forgot you didn't bring a pen."
Most people carry a pocketbook with them, and naturally they also carry a pen. She thought the person in front of her was the same, but now it seems that the other person may not have the habit of using a ledger.
Sugimoto Hideki took the pen, lowered his head and signed. At this time, the mobile phone in his pocket rang.
He took out his phone, looked at it, and put it back in again. Then he handed the signed document to Officer Sato, "Then I'll leave first."
Memu Police Department was about to nod.
However, at this moment, a voice came from the side.
Jiang Xia glanced at his calf and apologized, "Maybe not yet."
…
First floor lounge.
Okiya Subaru was still refreshing his phone with high intensity, and the small buffer circles seemed to be causing sparks due to friction.
However, no matter how hard I checked, I still didn’t receive any news from Akai Shuichi.
However, in the crew group, there was constant news about the frontline eating melons. Cute pink avatar:
[Sure enough, there is another hidden story behind the falling accident. There may be a murder hidden behind it.] [Jiang Xia seems to have discovered something. He stopped the relevant person who was about to leave. The truth should be revealed soon. 】
Okiya Subaru "..." This group of people in the entertainment industry are so active in eating melons. There is still no new message in the mailbox. Okiya Subaru is tired of browsing, so while waiting anxiously, he opens the profile picture with a slight curiosity and takes a look. Take a look at the home page.
Then I was surprised to find that the background of the homepage was the popular idol, Kinoshita Yoko. And it is a life photo that has not been circulated on the market.
"..."
Subaru Okiya continued to read down, and belatedly realized something - the reporter on this case was actually Ms. Yoko.
...Why did she get into the crime-solving team?
Beside, other people in the crew saw the news and seemed to be interested in it. Several people went out and seemed to be planning to sneak to the scene of the fall to watch the fun.
Of course Okiya Subaru is not among them.
He huddled in the corner of the lounge, wondering if Kinoshita Yoko might also be one of Uzo's targets. At this time, his phone suddenly vibrated. When he lowered his eyes, he saw a new email notification popping up at the top.
""
--Inadvertently, there was no news from Akai Shuichi when the crazy refresh happened just now. Now that I was distracted, he actually replied to the email
Okiya Subaru quickly clicked on the email and saw a brief instruction written on it [Find a place convenient for answering the phone]
Okiya Subaru stood up and breathed a silent sigh of relief while looking for a safe and suitable place:
He was still thinking before that even if he received an email from Mr. Akai, there was no guarantee that it would be Shuichi Akai's reply - it might be Uzo's minions using the mobile phone picked up from the crime scene and pretending to reply to the message for fishing. .
But now, with the ability to make phone calls, everything is much simpler. After all, there aren't that many people who can fake a voice and imitate Mr. Akai perfectly.
Akai Shuichi probably took this into consideration before choosing this method of communication.
…
Okiya Subaru quickly found the right place and sent the message. Not long after, the call came.
"I was working on a task in the suburbs just now, and the signal was very poor." Shuichi Akai understands Okiya Subaru fairly well, and based on several messages sent by him, he can guess this.
The graduate student was thinking about something, so he explained in advance the reason for his delayed reply.
Then he thought about it: "As for whether the falling incident was aimed at you, I am more inclined to think that it was just a coincidence - I remember that according to the structure of the airport, the route from the restroom back to the lounge, and the edge of the patio where you can fall The sections of the building are crisscrossed. In other words, there is only one point where a falling person can hit you.
"You walked over by yourself. According to Uzo's habit, the two people who were arguing upstairs could not receive the command to fall directly from him. One of you is on the first floor and the other on the fourth floor. There is almost no field of vision. Overlapping, trying to guide the deceased to fall and at the same time have you stop right below and wait for the impact, this is an almost impossible thing - no matter how good he is at controlling people's hearts, Uzo cannot rule out all accidents. Use this method to control killing."
Okiya Subaru "...So that's not an execution from Usa, it's just that I happened to be unlucky today."
...Although from a rational point of view, this is indeed true.
But when it comes to Uzo, can it really be that simple? The more he thought about it, the more uneasy Subaru felt.
However, Akai Shuichi seems to trust his own judgment. The FBI's attention has been elsewhere. "I heard that Jiang Xia was also at the scene today. Based on previous experience, Uzuo may have come for him. I will investigate Jiang Xia as soon as possible." The reason for appearing at the airport, and then speculate on the actions Uzo may take. As for you... you should follow the original plan, pay attention to concealment, and follow the crew in a low-key manner."
…
The countryside in the distance.
hang up the phone. Akai Shuichi pushed up the flat mirror on the bridge of his nose and looked at his phone silently.
There are indeed many overlaps in the places where Jiang Xia and Wu Zuo appear. Taking the worst guess, maybe Jiang Xia is Wu Zuo himself.
Shuichi Akai: "..." However, except for the occasional overlap of positions. Regardless of what he had seen and heard in the organization as "Rye Whiskey" before, Amuro Toru's friendly attitude towards Jiang Xia now, and all other evidence and experience, all point to the completely opposite conclusion - Jiang Xia will not be the one who controls the murder. The man behind the scenes.
Even the overlapping appearances of the two people can have reasonable explanations - for example, the information in Shuichi Akai's hands mainly came from Subaru Okiya. Therefore, as far as he knew, when Uzuo and Jiang Xia appeared at the same time, Okiya Subaru was also present. It was difficult to tell who Uzuo was coming for.
For another example, Jiang Xia is a high school detective who is keen on solving crimes, while Wu Zuo is a criminal planner who is keen on creating cases. Someone has to decipher the ingenious killing techniques Uzo devised. The number of people with sufficient IQ and good at reasoning is already very limited.
