Chapter 772 Professional Counterpart Adachi Toru
"A specific hair color?" Mao Lilan murmured, quickly thinking of the women they rescued tonight.
She is a beautiful adult woman who dyed her hair brown and permed it into fashionable waves.
Thinking about this, she couldn't help but cast her gaze towards Suzuki Sonoko who was sitting on the edge.
"You, you mean, the woman we sent to the hospital..." Suzuki Sonoko also touched her hair and shuddered.
Suddenly, I felt that it was not impossible to follow Karasawa's suggestion and dye my hair and style it...
"Yes, it fits the characteristics of the victim of the serial murder case." Holding the draft beer, Matsuda Jinpei gave a brief introduction. , "If you include this woman tonight, this is already the fourth time."
"So you will appear there tonight to follow the traces of a serial killer?" Conan heard this, Subconsciously asked, "But, aren't you no longer a police officer?"
And just now, with a nonchalant expression, he rejected the two girls' explanation that Karasawa could not be the perpetrator of the crime of injury. , no matter how you look at it, he is not an image of being eager for justice and helpful to others.
How could he still actively participate in the investigation and tracking of murder cases after leaving office?
"Well, it's true that I don't want to be a police officer. But not being a police officer doesn't mean that I can't investigate cases." Matsuda Jinpei said the truth without any hesitation, "This is preparation for a new job. Is it an internship?"
"Uh, I'd like to ask, is the new job you're talking about, detective?" Mao Lilan blinked and couldn't help but spit out the first word that came to his mouth, "Recently, go There are so many people who are detectives..."
Is this really a career that is suitable for retired police officers? How come every former police officer she knows seems to have become a detective in the end?
There are also several people who changed jobs midway, such as Mr. Toru Amuro, the waiter downstairs.
Thinking of Kudo Shinichi’s unabashed yearning and admiration for detectives since she was a child, and then comparing it to the detectives she has come into contact with...
Some bizarre pictures flashed through her mind, and her expression became stiffer.
How should I put it, this kind of indescribable feeling.
Tang Ze glanced at her expression of doubt about life and couldn't help laughing.
He knew what she was thinking. She just wanted to say why every optimized police officer became a detective. Is detective a profession similar to that of a delivery person or a security guard?
Hello, this is really the case in this world.
"Huh? Oh, yes, you are from Tokyo, and there are indeed quite a lot of detectives in Tokyo." Matsuda Jinpei, who is not really a detective by profession, was stunned, and quickly made up for himself, "It's not much different, anyway. It’s just some occupations that require participation in the investigation. Anyway, I happened to be going to Tokyo, so I stopped by.”
“Mr. Adachi’s words...” Karasawa took the initiative and looked at Conan pointedly. "He is now employed by the Metropolitan Police Department as a consultant in a specialized direction. He is considered, well, a police detective without public office."
Mao Lilan breathed a sigh of relief inexplicably, realizing that it was a bit rude, and quickly asked: "Specialized direction? It sounds very powerful. Are you investigating security cases similar to this murder?"
"To be more precise..." Slowly putting the wine glass to his mouth, Adachi Toru replied with a look. With a frivolous and lazy smile, "I specialize in investigating serial murder cases."
————
"Toru Adachi, investigating a serial murder case?!"
"Hattori, please keep your voice down..." Conan couldn't help but move the phone away from his ear to stop his friend on the other side of the phone from continuing to scream. "I'm still outside."
Heiji Hattori replied in a weird tone: "You can't blame me for making a fuss. There is a high probability that this person is one of the policemen related to the Karasawa case that I investigated before. 1. "
" Tangze has already told me this." Conan nodded without surprise.
And judging from Toru Adachi's rather subtle unfriendly attitude, Karasawa's case must have played a significant role in this matter.
To put it bluntly, this guy probably lost his job because of Hattori’s investigation.
"No, no, no, you don't know the seriousness of the problem." Even though he knew that the person on the other end of the phone couldn't see him, Hattori Heiji still shook his head vigorously, "He is not the only police officer I have investigated who has problems. It is true that they have all been dismissed from the police force. But the reason we used is not the Tangze case.”
After all, the content of this case has not been falsified so far.
"Considering that they are likely to be related to the organization, my father's idea is to dig deeper into their illegal and disciplinary behavior to remove these scum from the police force." Speaking of this, Hattori Heiji's eyebrows He became completely serious, "Kudo, do you know the reason why Toru Adachi was fired?"
Infected by the solemnity in his words, Conan's relaxed expression also became solemn.
Indeed, "You can't blame Karasawa-kun" and "He was involved in some incidents." This is how Adachi Toru himself explained the whole story of losing his job as a police officer last night.
On the other end of the phone, Hattori Heiji lowered his head and looked at the thick stack of documents that he had scribbled on that were designed by Karasawa and Toru Amuro to record Adachi's past life.
“He was dismissed by the Kyoto police station without hesitation because he was suspected of being related to the serial murders that occurred on the edge of Kyoto city. Kudo and Toru Adachi were probably directly or indirectly using some means. A serial killer who killed several people."
As soon as he said this, Conan, who was really well-informed, looked stunned.
Good guy, this is really good guy.
When a serial killer is asked to investigate a serial murder case, should he praise the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department for its good eye for people? Who would come to see this without boasting about his professional counterpart?
"He was actually hired by the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. The situation is a bit bad." Hattori Heiji's expression was still serious, "You try to find a way to watch him more, and let me know when you return to Tokyo. Come here as soon as possible.”
The bad policeman who was expelled from the Kansai region was actually rehired by Tokyo. He is still a guy who is very likely to be inseparable from the organization.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the National Police Agency are basically next to each other. I’m really not afraid of a guy like this sneaking in to steal secrets for the organization...
No, rather, this might be the case. That's the real reason why he was hired. We need to investigate how he got the job.
Conan, who fully felt Hattori Heiji's speechlessness and promised to pay attention in the next few days, kept his expression solemn for a while after hanging up the phone.
The process of confronting the organization and slowly extracting its minions is indeed a long way to go...
"Crack——"
He sat under a sun umbrella While in a daze, Suzuki Sonoko, who was standing in the shallow water in front of him, raised his camera and pressed the shutter at Maori Lan who was standing in front of him.
"Hey, hey, what are you taking pictures of..." Mao Lilan, who adjusted her bikini straps, turned back alertly and glared at Suzuki Sonoko.
"Taking sexy and beautiful moments." Suzuki Sonoko, who was wearing a leopard print swimsuit, hummed.
"What are you doing taking that picture..." Mao Lilan looked down at the thin straps of her swimming trunks on her hips and couldn't help but feel hot.
It is normal to wear this kind of swimsuit at the beach, but it is another matter to be photographed.
"No need to ask, of course I will wait until Shinichi comes back to show that guy." Suzuki Sonoko raised the camera and answered matter-of-factly.
“Huh?”
"Ah?!"
Two voices of surprise sounded at the same time. Mao Lilan and Conan looked at each other and quickly looked away.
Conan coughed twice and covertly grabbed the swimming ring next to the lounge chair to cover his face, which looked uncomfortable.
Okay, he admitted that Xiaolan's suspender bra and small swimming trunks are indeed quite sexy...
"He doesn't need to see it..." Mao Lilan He retorted quietly, but it was difficult to express his next thoughts.
He had already seen it. To be precise, he did not wear a highly covered one-piece swimsuit this time like the last time he came to Izu because... "Why don't you need it? With this photo in hand, what do I think of him?" Everyone will agree." Suzuki Sonoko arrogantly crossed her arms, teasing her best friend, "This is very precious information!"
"How is that possible, Conan? What?" Mao Lilan turned her eyes and looked at Conan subtly, who grabbed the swimming ring and got into the water.
"How can a child understand this?" Suzuki Sonoko waved her hand.
"Sonoko, I think you don't want to blackmail Shinichi at all, but you want to threaten me." Seeing Conan's embarrassed expression that he didn't dare to look back at, Mao Lilan turned his head, "You haven't recovered yet. Come here?”
I came to Izu with the intention of traveling, but I didn't meet many handsome guys. I first met a serial murderer who might target me. This kind of thing is really difficult for people to not change their mentality.
"Ha, don't mention it." Suzuki Sonoko's shoulders suddenly slumped, "How can I get in touch with strange handsome guys without any psychological barriers? I even suspected that the uncle yesterday was deliberately trying to scare me. "Yes."
"He, uh, maybe he wants to remind you kindly." Mao Lilan reluctantly added a few words, looking around as if asking for help, and soon his eyes lit up.
"Kangze, you're back..." She waved at the boy who was approaching and saw clearly what he looked like now, and the next question was stuck for a moment.
Among a group of people wearing swimming trunks and swimsuits, with fair skin everywhere, Tang was completely covered by beach shorts, a hooded sweatshirt, and even a pair of sunglasses. Ze, it looks really eye-catching.
Not to mention, he still has a cat hanging on his shoulder, which looks more like a Siamese cat posing than resting.
"Where did this cat come from?" When she turned around and saw Karasawa's image, Suzuki Sonoko, who was also unflappable, even temporarily forgot about the failed romantic encounter, "Why are you wearing such tight clothes when you go to the beach... ..."
Didn't he say this morning that he was going to the hospital to visit the lady who was attacked and ask her if she still had any impression of the murderer? This is where a cat appeared.
"I feel a little too exposed to the sun, so I want to cover myself from the sun. I'm really not suitable for the beach. Isn't this cute?" Tangze looked at him as he handed over the three glasses of juice he was carrying. With an innocent face, he said, "When I came here just now, a lady asked me to give this cat to me. She said she had to leave temporarily for something. Seeing that the cat is very close to me, she asked me to bask in the cat for her for a while."
To support his statement, Tangze raised his hand and scratched the cat's chin.
The relaxed nekko soon purred softly and rubbed Karasawa's hand very intimately.
"Showing, showing off the cat..." Conan's mouth twitched as he looked at the Siamese cat named No. 1, which looked inexplicably familiar, but the color was indeed wrong if he took a closer look.
A lady, a Siamese cat, was bumped into by Karasawa...
It couldn't be what he thought...
"Well, she said this Siamese cat Luo's coat turned black too quickly due to the weather, so he took him to the beach to bask in the sun." Tang Ze told the truth.
There is no way around it. As the case progresses, the weather in Kexue's world changes too quickly, which is definitely a test for such a key-colored cat.
When I rescued nekko from Tei Moritani, he was still a relatively new Siamese cat with only the tip and bridge of his nose showing dark colors. After so many months, the entire front of his face was already dark. Looks like a coal digger.
It happened that there was more convenient transportation when he came to Izu this time, so he packed the two Siamese cats in the car and brought them over, preparing to give them a little renovation.
Today he had a reason to come to the beach to bask in the sun, so he brought the cat along.
Another cat that escaped from the house of a black-hearted female lawyer was taken by several other teammates and basked on the other side of the beach.
——By the way, in order to let the cat adapt, even though its previous owner’s name was very uncreative, Karasawa did not change its name. It is still called Mi-chan.
The three of them were each shocked by the magical unfolding of their friends. They were silent for a moment. They opened the juice in their hands and took a sip to calm down their shock before remembering the questions they wanted to ask before.
"Is that lady awake? I remember that the doctor in charge of the rescue yesterday said that her condition was quite critical." Mao Lilan asked with concern.
Moreover, as the only victim who is most likely to have seen the true face of the murderer, her safety is also a problem that needs attention.
"Not yet, the person is still in the ICU." Tangze shrugged, "It is said that the liver damage is more serious, and it is still under observation. However, the Henggou Police Department has arranged for personnel to take care of her in the hospital. It’ll be fine.”
Such fierce and unorganized stabs were aimed at killing her, and it was difficult to avoid damage to her organs.
"Well, I hope she can recover as soon as possible." Suzuki Sonoko wished sincerely.
Then provide an accurate confession and arrest the arrogant serial killer.
She didn’t want to be picked up by perverts for no apparent reason because of her natural hair color...
Tang Ze smiled and nodded, and replied reassuringly: "Yes, I will definitely do it."
He didn't go to the hospital out of pure concern. After communicating with the subordinates of the Henggou Police Department, he used cross-dressing to pretend to be an ICU doctor and secretly gave the victim some of Haihara Ai's special medicine.
According to Karasawa's speculation, for the murderer, a perverted shadow that has caused certain cognitive changes in the world, this medicine should be able to help the victim quickly recover from the trauma he caused.
However, having said that, it is difficult for the victim to wake up in a short period of time. It is no longer realistic to expect the victim to identify the murderer before everything happens, so Tang Ze quickly turned back and returned to the beach to find him. two classmates.
By the way, wait and see.
Pulling the hood that covered his face, Tangze caught the man slowly approaching them from the corner of his eye, and a smile appeared on his lips.
This is why he wants to completely hide his appearance.
When his face cannot be seen, strange men are more daring to strike up a conversation with Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko.
"Excuse me, ladies, are you free?"
Hearing the soft, low and pleasant male voice, Suzuki Sonoko, who was holding a juice straw in her mouth, quickly turned around. Look in the direction of the speaker.
The man with slicked-back hair and an open floral shirt walked towards their direction with a smile.
His brown hair was meticulously styled, with a few playful strands of hair left on his forehead, and clear muscle lines could be seen between his open clothes.
Coupled with that handsome face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, just looking at the external conditions, this is definitely a handsome guy full of hormones.
"If you are free, would you like to have a meal together at noon?" Dao Xie Masahiko, who was stopped a few steps away, looked at the people carefully and smiled when he saw Suzuki Sonoko who was still holding the camera. , "Of course, I'm here to treat you."
He behaved very restrainedly and had no intention of overstepping the social distance. His polite appearance can arouse people's goodwill.
Suzuki Sonoko's expression suddenly brightened, and just as she was about to answer the call, she glanced at her best friend standing beside her, her long hair flying in the sea breeze, and her smile faded again.
He was talking about two young ladies, it would be better to be less pretentious.
"I understand, I understand, your target is her too, right?" Suzuki Sonoko grabbed her best friend's arm and patted it twice, "Go ahead, go ahead, everyone has the love for beauty. But she The famous woman has her own wife, so don’t have any evil intentions.”
As for you, it’s better not to get close to watch the handsome stranger show his courtesy to your bestie.
It is a light bulb, but it is also sad to see.
"No, how could it be." Tao Xie Masahiko swept over Mao Lilan's face and hair, and soon laughed, focusing his eyes on Suzuki Sonoko again, "In fact, the only thing I want to invite is You alone.”
"Huh?" Unexpectedly, Suzuki Sonoko was stunned. Seeing Dao Xie Masahiko's straightforward and passionate eyes, she felt a little at a loss.
“Meow~” Nekko, who was lying on Karasawa’s shoulder, cried out.
