"Hey, Akina, look at the face of this corpse. She looks... similar to Kyoko-san, doesn't she?"
Just as the boy was sorting out the clues in his mind, Karasuma beside him suddenly said this.
【Apricot? 】
The boy heard the sound and turned to look at Karasuma.
Until now, the police actually do not know the identity of the deceased.
Although the boy did not need to deliberately talk about this kind of thing, the criminal policemen launched an investigation as soon as they arrived at the scene. However, the deceased died too cleanly. Not only did he not have a single piece of clothing on him, but he also had no clothes on him. No identifying documents could be found.
Although the deceased's face did not suffer any deliberate damage, it will take time to search and investigate.
"Huh? Kyoko?!"
Hearing Karasumaru's voice, the scared classmate behind her suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at the body in front of her for the first time.
At this first glance, the girl named Qiuna was stunned, and her face suddenly turned pale.
"No, it's not very similar! She, she is Kyoko!"
Unlike Karasuma, who is slightly blind to East Asians, Akina-san recognized at a glance that the tragically dead corpse in front of her was none other than their classmate Kyoko.
Hearing this, the boy frowned slightly, then turned to look at a criminal policeman beside him.
The detective immediately understood and immediately turned around and left to investigate this information.
"Do you know the deceased?" Immediately, the boy looked at Xiao Karasuma and asked.
"For example, if it's Kyoko, we know each other! She is a classmate with us, in the same class!" Karasumaru nodded repeatedly.
"She must, must be Kyoko!" Akina, who was huddled behind her, also replied with a scared but very sure tone:
"Although, even though she has no clothes, her face, hair, and body are all the same as Kyoko! There must be nothing wrong with her! Kyoko, Kyoko..."
Well, the random passerby who died tragically is now a classmate.
Later, the boy learned from Karasuma and Kouma that although the girl named Kyoko was in the same class as them, she usually had a more domineering personality, a bit like a gangster sister, so she and the two of them The relationship between them is not good either.
It should be said that it is not just the two of them. This Kyoko classmate seems to have a bad relationship with all the classmates in the class and does not have many friends.
"Then does she have any enemies?"
After listening to the two men's stories quietly, the boy asked. He seemed to think that using this kind of statement was not very good for the two female high school students, so he quickly changed his words:
"It's just people who don't have a good relationship."
"a lot of!"
It was Akina who answered the boy. Maybe it was because the boy had been standing next to the body. The female high school student had always been hiding behind Karasuma, with only her head exposed.
"Since junior high school, Kyoko has always had a bad relationship with her classmates! At that time, many girls in the class were bullied by her!
It’s the same thing when you get to high school! Kyoko has always liked to bully other classmates! I heard that I also have contacts with some students from other schools..."
Karasuma didn't interrupt. After all, she only came back to Japan half a year ago, so she didn't know much about these past events.
[Are there students with bad relationships on campus? 】
Listening to Qiuna's description, the boy glanced at the girl's body at his feet.
It is indeed easy to get retaliated from this situation, but no matter how much you retaliate, it should not turn the body into such a weird look. This is not like a simple venting of anger...
"I, I also heard that during the vacation before entering high school, there seemed to be a girl in the school who was often bullied by Kyoko, and finally, finally committed suicide by jumping off the building..."
At this time, Akina-san added another word, which allowed the boy to keenly catch a clue.
"Suicide by jumping off a building? What's her name?"
Ordinary bullying and humiliation may be difficult to cause a vendetta, but once a murder occurs, the situation is completely different. The possibility that the family members of the deceased will take revenge on the bully will skyrocket.
"I, I don't know..."
This time, Akina-san did not give an answer.
"Because the girl who jumped off the building and I were not in the same class, I only heard about it at that time..."
The boy didn't ask any more questions.
Most schools would try their best to block information when encountering something like this. It was normal to not know if it was true. For him, just this bit of information was enough, and at least there was a direction for investigation.
"Mr. Shirakawa."
At this moment, the criminal policeman who left before came back and said quickly:
"I just went to Miss Karasuma's school to find out. There is indeed a girl named 'Akita Kyoko' in Miss Karasuma's class. According to the school, this Akita's evaluation in the school is indeed... Some not so good.
In addition, I also made a call to Akita-san’s home. Her parents said that Akita-san really never went back after she came home from school yesterday and went out again. I think the deceased in this case..."
The meaning of the detective's words was obvious. The true identity of this corpse was probably that of Kokarasuma and their classmate named Akita Kyoko.
"Have your parents been notified to come over for an autopsy?" the boy asked.
"Yes, we have been notified. They will be here soon."
"Um."
The investigation was progressing smoothly. The boy nodded slightly, and then looked at Karasuma and the two who had saved the police a lot of effort.
"W-Wooden man! I'll go to the school to help you investigate!" Before he could say anything, Karasuma said first.
Although she really wanted to stay and watch the boy's subsequent investigation, she also knew that this was impossible.
As a ruthless "reasoning machine", there is no way the boy would allow them to stay just because they provided a little help.
On the contrary, this idiot will just think that since they have drained their "surplus value", they should stop staying and be an eyesore, and go back to class quickly.
Therefore, instead of forcing her to stay, it is better to follow the boy's inner thoughts and help him investigate from another direction. In this way, the boy will not be able to forcefully throw her out of the case.
I, Karasumaru, am the best Shirakawa ranger!
She knows everything about Xiaoshu!
And the fact was exactly what Xiao Karasuma thought. The boy was silent for a while after hearing the sound, and then nodded.
"Okay, I will go to your school to find out the situation later. If you are willing, you can help me ask about the situation of this classmate Xingzi in the school."
The boy agreed simply. After all, the deceased was a classmate of Karasuma. With her character, she would definitely investigate even if he didn't agree.
In this case, instead of letting her mess around secretly, it is better to put her directly in front of him. At least he can keep an eye on her and prevent her from encountering any unexpected situations...
