"It's getting late, let's go back."
Ye Gengyi turned around and picked up the coat hanging on the back of the chair.
Hui Yuan Ai followed behind him.
With the sound of the door, the darkness in the room cut off the light from the corridor.
Ye Gengyi took Haihara Ai through the familiar streets and returned to No. 22, 2-chome.
Just after finishing a simple dinner, Ye Gengyi's phone suddenly rang.
Huihara Ai immediately cast his gaze, but due to the presence of Dr. A Li, it was inconvenient to ask.
Ye Gengyi didn't avoid it and just picked it up:
"Police department?"
Hearing this title, Haiyuan Ai relaxed a little. Just now, she was thinking about how she could help cover up when Ye Gengyi suddenly left his seat and said he was going to answer the phone.
Here, the call continues.
I don't know what was said on the phone, but Ye Gengyi said, "Okay, I'll be there right now" and ended the call.
"What happened?" Huiyuan Ai asked hurriedly.
"There was a shooting in the Maori Detective Agency." Ye Gengyi's voice was as calm as ever, "According to the Memu Police Department, the suspect is dead. He called because he thought we had a good relationship with Mr. Maori on weekdays. Something happened. This kind of thing needs to be notified.”
"Moreover, let's..." Dr. A Li said and wanted to get up and change clothes.
Ye Gengyi raised his hand and pressed it a few times, then said: "Don't worry, although the suspect is dead, we can't rule out whether the other party has any accomplices. The case is not over yet. I'll go check it out first and contact you if necessary." .”
The shooting happened at the detective agency...
Hui Yuan Ai nodded solemnly and said cooperatively:
"That's right, doctor, we'd better wait for the news first."
She was worried that if all this was done by 'that person' again, the appearance of herself and the doctor would most likely make Brother Gengyi passive.
"Well, I'm going out."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly and drove towards the Maori Detective Agency.
At night, Yoneka Town seems to be no different from the past.
When they arrived at 5-chome, police officers from the First Search Division had already set up a cordon at the scene.
Chiba and Shin are on duty outside.
Ye Gengyi walked over to say hello and went straight to the second floor.
The office can't avoid the 'radiation of death'?
It can't be that this incident is related to the previous case in which he assisted a sniper to kill a bomber.
Hmm... I'd better keep it in mind. Unless the situation is particularly urgent, don't kill anyone easily in the doctor's house.
With this thought in mind, he reached out and knocked on the door, then without waiting for a response, he pushed open the unclosed door and walked in.
Although a murder occurred, there was no chaos in the office.
Blankets and hot drinks have always been standard for 'victims'.
Therefore, Ye Gengyi quickly determined that the tearful and crying woman sitting on the sofa was the victim of this incident.
but……
Why is Bourbon here too?
Ye Gengyi looked at the black man who was also looking at him and asked directly: "Is he your client again?"
Toru Amuro hurriedly crossed his hands in front of him, moved them left and right a few times, and explained: "No! This Miss Katatsuka is the client of Teacher Mori. As for me..."
He paused briefly and introduced:
"Now he is Teacher Mori's number one disciple."
"Oh. With your level, you really need the guidance of a famous teacher." Ye Gengyi responded casually, indicating that he understood.
"..."
The corners of Amuro Toru's mouth twitched a few times.
Although I really wanted everyone to accept this setting, why was I still very angry when the man in front of me accepted it as a matter of course?
"Mr. Mori."
Here, Ye Gengyi turned around and asked a certain tool man, "The current situation of this 'victim' should have nothing to do with your new disciple, right?"
"Ah! It has nothing to do with Amuro," Mouri Kogoro explained: "Miss Katatsuka originally entrusted me to help find coin lockers, but we were deceived by a gangster using mail, and then the guy pretended to be me. His assistant kidnapped Miss Kenzuka and locked her up in the bathroom. He probably didn’t expect us to come back so quickly, so the man put the gun into his mouth and committed suicide out of desperation.”
"Everyone is fine."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly, and out of the corner of his eye he caught sight of Mao Lilan, who was obviously frightened, and the Shinigami primary school student, who was not afraid of corpses at all. He turned to Amuro and said:
"Hey...disciple, can you please help me make a cup of coffee?"
"My name is Toru Amuro..."
There was a stiff smile on Toru Amuro's face. After a moment, he said "Wait a moment" and turned around to walk to the tea room nearby.
Since there is no partition between the two ends, Ye Geng doesn't have to worry about this guy secretly spitting.
The reason why he did this was not only because he was really thirsty after dinner just now, but more importantly, he wanted to observe the reaction of the woman on the sofa through this kind of intentional contempt.
After all, I saw a familiar 'colleague' being treated like a servant, and there was a humanoid polygraph that could detect emotions in the unknown place. No matter how good I was at pretending, there might be a flaw inadvertently exposed.
The result...no...
The woman didn't react to what was going on here, as if she hadn't heard.
Not a 'Bourbon' person.
Ye Gengyi made a preliminary judgment.
So... the situation at the scene is rather strange.
The first and most important point is why Bourbon is here. Is it also contaminated by the radiation from the Death Halo?
Just when he came to become a disciple, he encountered a murder case.
Thinking about what happened to him, it's not impossible.
Of course, even if there is no reason to support Bourbon's behavior, Ye Gengyi does not intend to directly ask Maori Kogoro about this matter now.
A murder occurred at the scene. Since the victim was not Bourbon's client, we could not put the cart before the horse and ask about the story of Kogoro Mori's recruitment. Instead, we had to directly ask Bourbon himself.
Noticed that the other person was still making coffee.
Ye Gengyi looked at Mumu Shisan: "Police department, have you figured out the motive of the gangster kidnapping her?"
"Well, he said he wanted her to hand over the key to the locker, otherwise he would kill her."
Megure Thirteen lowered his voice slightly: "Although it's strange, we have tested Miss Katatsuka's clothes, and basically no smoke reaction was detected on them, so the possibility of the man who died in the bathroom committed suicide is very high."
"That's it..." Ye Gengyi responded.
"Your coffee." Toru Amuro's voice came from behind.
Ye Geng turned around and looked at Bourbon, who was walking towards him with a cup of hot coffee, smiling, and said:
"Thank you, please put it on the coffee table."
He didn't want to have to do a scene of dodging hot coffee with the other party later.
"Okay." Toru Amuro nodded.
"By the way, that disciple," Ye Gengyi asked suddenly: "Did you make a special trip to see Mr. Mao Li to become your disciple today?"
"No, I became a disciple a few days ago," Toru Amuro paused for a moment and said helplessly: "And... my name is Toru Amuro."
