"Did No. 44 show up?!"
All members of the search headquarters in the conference room became nervous and quickly prepared for combat.
Sasayama's communication continued, "...According to the testimony of the surviving captain, No. 44 jumped from the air into Tokyo Bay. The Coast Guard has urgently dispatched patrol ships to search, but in the news they sent back, four No. 14 will release strange golden arcs, and the radar will also be affected by the magnetic field and cannot be used, making it impossible to determine the target location..."
"Golden arc? It seems that they still gained that kind of power."
Sugita had already loaded his guns, and Kazuichi and the others took action quickly. Ryusuke Higashino and Yusuke Godai also planned to follow them.
Before leaving, Dongye recalled some clues - in Rick's memory, the super-ancient shark monster Gayaze liked to play games with advance notice, and in his own impression, there was probably a shark monster. method of committing the crime.
So before leaving, he specifically asked Sasayama to investigate whether there were any relevant murder notices on social networks in the recent period.
Members of the Joint Search Headquarters quickly arrived near Tokyo Bay. However, when they arrived, there was no trace of No. 44. Only one patrol ship was attacked during the search. Several Coast Guard officers Team members died as a result.
Higashino and Godai turned into Kuuga respectively, and after several explorations using the power of Pegasus, they were sure that Shark Gurungi had already left here, and only a faint scent of sublimated power remained on the bay.
"Because the strength has become stronger, the speed of killing and retreating has become much faster..."
When Higashino Ryusuke and Godai returned to the motorcycle with solemn expressions, a message from Sasayama, who had concluded the investigation results at the headquarters, happened to come over the channel.
"Everyone, according to the tip from No. 1, uh... Mr. Higashino, I found a post on the Internet that said 'The rainbow across the sky will disappear 243', which is completely consistent with the number of victims of the Rainbow Flight! This post It was released before the incident, and even the time of the incident is consistent.”
Kaoru Ichijo, Sugita and Go Sakurai quickly came over, "Is this the rule of the game this time?"
"That's right!" Dongye nodded affirmatively.
Sasayama continued: "In this post, the next crime content is 'The sun floating on the sea will disappear 324', and 'The young leaves anchored on the land will disappear 144'."
"So will we kill people at sea and on land next?" Sugita thought thoughtfully, "But what do 'the sun on the sea' and 'young leaves on the land' mean?"
At the same time, Ryusuke Higashino on the side had already frowned in surprise. "The young leaves parked on the land..." He had no impression of this trailer at all. It had never existed on TV.
It seems that due to his influence, the content of these Grunge games has also changed? And when he heard the words Nen Ye, a bad premonition gradually filled his heart.
The young leaves in Japanese are generally written as 'wakaba'. Ruoye, Ruoye...wait! A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
"It's Wakaba Nursery School!" Ryusuke suddenly exclaimed, "The young leaves on the land refer to that place!"
"What, that's where..." Kaoru Ichijo finally realized, looked at Godai seriously and said, "If I remember correctly, Godai, your sister works as a preschool teacher in that nursery, right?!"
The first person to discover the clues was Higashino. However, this was not because Ichijo's reasoning ability was inferior to him, but because Higashino knew the personalities of those Gurungi better than him. For example, the current Shark Gurungi, although he has the three strongest powers in the Kudzu Group He has a great reputation and strength, but he is a guy who will attack vulnerable human groups such as the elderly and children in order to save energy.
There are many places named Wakaba in Tokyo, but it is precisely because of this that Higashino was able to target the nursery school first. This guy Gaya Ze will take action against the child!
The third clue was quickly solved in this way, but Sakurai Tsuyoshi was still chewing on the second clue, "Then the sun on the sea..."
"I found it!" Sasayama's voice sounded again on the channel, "Half an hour later, a ship named Sunflower boarded many children's groups and set sail from Oarai Town towards Tomakomai. And just now, that This post has also been updated: 'Tips, 711 people in 6 hours, will the game end with my easy victory? I really want to end this boring killing process quickly, and then start a more important game!'"
243+324+144=711, the number of kills is exactly right!
"The target of the operation of No. 44 is very clear." Kaoru Ichijo said immediately, "Although in terms of sequence, she may have gone to the Sunflower first and then to Wakaba Nursery, Godai, to be on the safe side, you should go back first. Look, the task of protecting the Sunflower is left to us and Ryujie-san."
Godai Yusuke nodded without refuting. The so-called companions deserved mutual trust. Moreover, he was also worried about the safety of his sister and the children in the nursery.
There are still half an hour before the Sunflower sails, which is not enough to evacuate everyone. Moreover, the distance from Tokyo Bay to Oarai Town is also very long. The straight-line distance is probably more than half of that from Tokyo to Nagano.
Before leaving, Godai added: "If there is no situation at the nursery, I will fly over with Golem at any time, but Ryusuke-san, you..."
"No, I can fly by myself."
"Oh yes……"
Before Ichijo Kaoru rushed back to his police car, he solemnly asked Higashino Ryusuke who was about to set off: "I will also contact the Coast Guard to cooperate with the protection work. Ryusuke-san, please rush to Oarai Town as soon as possible!"
"I know." Ryusuke immediately summoned the belt, and his body transformed into a newborn Kuuga amidst the roar of spiritual stones. Then he jumped up and transformed into a black and white golem-like aircraft in the air, reaching a speed of 500 kilometers per hour in an instant. left here.
This kind of operation naturally caused Suita and Sakurai to marvel again...
…
Ibaraki Port Oarai Port Area.
The only ones standing on the pier were Gayaze and the man with the vulture scarf. Gayaze waited quietly, looking at the time on the watch on his wrist from time to time.
When the hour hand pointed to two o'clock, she quickly started to run forward, and her body quickly revealed the posture of a shark monster as she moved forward. She took off and leaped out of the pier, like a vigorous shark diving into the water.
The surface of Junmin's body was wrapped with bursts of golden current, causing her swimming speed in the water to quickly reach its peak. She turned into a sharp arrow in the water, moving at an incredible speed like the arrow of a ship on the far side of the horizon. Swim around in small spots.
The man with the vulture scarf had already taken out the abacus in his arms. His falcon eyes were staring into the distance, and his fingers were gently placed on the beads of the abacus...
