The letter paper was taken away by the police for handwriting identification. Although Kuroki Ren felt that there would be no results, he did not stop it.
Now he is being questioned as to why he knew it was the prisoner's hiding place.
"As I said before," Kuroki Jin pointed to the opened file, "it is impossible for the prisoner to conjure up bombs. He must have a source to import these things and a place to make bombs."
"So in the past few days, I focused on all the medium and large warehouses in the city, but there were too many, so I found the filtering conditions from the clues given in the file."
In the first case seven years ago, there were two locations where bombs were placed, namely Suwa Heights, where Matsuda Jinpei was in charge, and Asai Villa Plaza, where Hagiwara Kenji was in charge. Both bombs were placed in high-rise apartment buildings, where a large number of ordinary citizens lived.
Therefore, when the second bomb could not be defused, the police agreed to pay the prisoner a sum of money to temporarily deactivate the bomb.
"The last location where one of the prisoners was found was in a public telephone booth at the intersection of xx Road. Let's draw a map..."
The reason why Kuroki Jin was able to find the location was naturally not this. He found the place by relying on the organization's intelligence network to find the transportation channel for bomb raw materials, but he couldn't tell that, and he had to give an explanation to the police.
In fact, this is Kuroki Jin's biggest difficulty at present, and it is also the biggest constraint after having a clear identity.
"In short, based on the locations where the two bombs were planted and the investigation of these locations in the preceding and following stages, I locked down this area and found it here after searching for it one by one."
Everyone in the room looked at each other. After a long while, Mu Mu pressed his hat and asked hesitantly: "Did you find these in the past three days?"
"How is that possible?" Kuroki Jin laughed, "The Mumu Police Department really thinks highly of me."
He opened one of the files and turned to a certain page, and a piece of paper filled with dense words was shaken out by him.
"It seems that besides us, there is also a police officer who has ideas about this case."
Memu picked up the paper and looked at it. Most of the things listed on it were Kuroki's reasoning just now, and Kuroki just made the most critical summary based on the content above.
"I went to ask the freight station. The last time they moved was three months ago, but the second to last movement was a year ago." Kuroki Jin sighed with regret, "If he can know this clue , I’m afraid they will find the location before me.”
"Him?" Megure sensitively caught the words in Kuroki's words, "Does Mr. Kuroki know the police officer who listed the clues?"
If there really is such a person in the Metropolitan Police Department, it might not be a bad idea to call him to participate in the next case.
Kuroki Ren looked a little strange, with a hesitant expression on his face.
"What's wrong?" Sato asked, then narrowed his eyes and said in a dangerous tone: "Is there any reason why this person can't show up?"
"No..." Kuroki Ren slightly restrained his smile and said lightly: "It's because he can't show his face now."
He stood up and walked to Memu, turned over the paper in his hand and placed it on the table, and clicked the signature at the bottom.
"...September x, 1993, Date Hangru.
In less than half a year, I will catch him. "
There seemed to be a collective loss of voice in the room, and it was quiet for a while. Just when Kuroki Ren wanted to say something to break the silence, Shiratori spoke first:
"Otherwise, let Takagi join in."
Datehang is Takagi Wataru's senior, the one who led him from the beginning and taught him step by step. It was also him who held Takagi's hand before he died, thrust the police manual into his hand, and told him to leave it to you.
Shiratori regarded Takagi as a love rival, but before that they were colleagues in the same class, comrades who could work together to face the most vicious criminals.
Datehang's unexpected death was a big blow to Takagi Wataru, and most people in the Metropolitan Police knew this.
Since this case is Officer Date's 'last wish', Takagi cannot be prevented from getting involved for any reason.
Megure agreed, and he picked up the piece of paper and went to tell Takagi about it in person.
Takagi's eyes almost turned red when he learned what happened. He read the contents on the paper carefully and returned it to Megure solemnly.
"Don't worry, police department, I will definitely work hard to catch this criminal!"
Wataru Takagi is very motivated to be able to work with Officer Sato to solve the case that Date-senpai once investigated! ! !
"...Really? Congratulations to Officer Takagi."
In the bar, the bartender said sincerely and happily for Takagi.
Takagi also rubbed the back of his head and giggled. He had been in a bad mood these past few days. He would sit here for a while after get off work every day. He didn't drink as much as he did on the first day. He just chatted with the communicative bartender at the bar.
Of course, Takagi would not tell the specific incident. He would only say something like, "The female boss I like recently worked with other colleagues to solve a long-ago case," without giving any details.
Now that he has successfully joined the crime-solving team, Takagi is naturally happy to share it with the friends he has made in the past two days.
"I'll give you a glass of wine." The bartender took advantage of his free time to quickly make a light yellow cocktail and put it in front of the tall wooden table.
"How……"
"It doesn't matter." The bartender said cheerfully, "I wish you success immediately."
After hearing what he said, Takagi no longer refused. After drinking, he stood up and left to prepare for the next work.
After he left, the bartender took back the glass and stared at the traces of alcohol left at the bottom of the glass.
"I forgot to tell you," the bartender changed from his usual optimistic expression, with a faint mysterious smile on his face, and said softly to the wine glass: "This wine is called Fantasia."
"Takagi Wataru."
There were four days left before that day arrived, but this morning the Metropolitan Police Department received a fax in advance.
"It can't be him." Sato frowned. "Whether it's the writing format or the way he speaks, it's different from that prisoner. Besides, the time doesn't even match up."
"It is not ruled out that he became angry after we found his lair and started taking action in advance."
Shiratori held a different opinion.
"Now that we have received the fax, let us be extremely vigilant." Megure finally said, "Shiratori, Sato, I know the appearance of the two of you, so you disguise yourself and go over to be on guard. As for Takagi, you came to the headquarters late, so you don’t have to disguise yourself.”
"Yes!" The three of them saluted Mu Mu.
"By the way," Takagi suddenly asked as he walked out of the door, "Do I need to tell Mr. Kuroki about this?"
Shiratori frowned slightly when he heard this. Until now, he actually didn't agree with the participation of non-professionals, but Kuroki Jin's level is indeed good, and Megure has great trust in him.
"I'll send you an email." Sato took out his mobile phone from his pocket, "Let's go to this place first. I remember there seems to be a jewelry store nearby. Let's go there first and take a look."
