Pokémon: I'm a detective, not the sixth one.

"Aledo, Lucario, be alert in the surroundings. Shrimp, go underwater and see if there is anything suspicious nearby."

Lu Yi asked his partners to act separately and make warning arrangements at the scene as soon as possible.

However, he knew in his heart that there was a high probability that there would be nothing unusual around him.

It is known that Alei and his companion discovered this messenger bird while fishing, which means that the latter had already been thrown into the ocean and drifted in the ocean currents for a long time.

Judging from the degree of decay of the body, the messenger bird should have died about two days ago. Even if the microorganisms in the seawater can speed up the decay, it will not be particularly exaggerated.

Therefore, this is definitely not the first crime scene, and it is difficult for the perpetrator to predict the body's drifting route. There is no reason for him to set up an ambush nearby and monitor the body's drifting trajectory.

With these inferences, Lu Yi did not waste any more time observing the surrounding environment, but looked at the underwater cannon shrimp and gave it new instructions.

"Can you feel the general direction of the current?"

Lu Yi was looking forward to the answer of the Steel Cannon Arm Shrimp. It is a water Pokémon and should be very sensitive to the dynamics of water flow. Tracing the origin of the messenger bird's corpse is of great significance in this case!

Soon, the steelhead shrimp determined the direction of the nearby ocean currents based on its familiarity with the marine environment.

It emerged from the water with a puff, waving its huge claws and pointing to the west of the crowd!

"West? Could it be that the crime scene is another Twin Island?"

Lu Yi couldn't help but frown. For this kind of case, one could only speculate based on the general direction and could not draw an accurate conclusion.

On the vast ocean, tidal forces, ocean currents, wind direction and speed, the movement of underwater Pokémon populations, the thrust of passing ships, etc., will all change the drifting direction of the messenger bird's corpse.

There are so many factors to consider, and they are too professional, Lu Yi can only wait for the analysis results of the police professionals.

All he could do now was to carefully recall the ocean currents near the Twin Islands.

It seems that in the game, the ocean currents in the Twin Islands in the FireRed/LeafGreen version are different from the ocean currents around Duskwater in the Red/Sapphire version.

The ocean currents around Mushui Town were highly uncertain. Suppose Lu Yi casually dropped a message in a bottle and watched it drift westward, but two days later it might turn around and drift northward, or even return directly to the coast of Mushui Town.

However, the ocean current environment of the Gemini Islands is not complicated and can be traced to a certain extent.

So Lu Yi made a plan in his mind. After the police arrived and took over the evidence collection work of the body, he temporarily said goodbye to A Lei and the others and took the Tropical Dragon to the West Island of the Gemini Islands.

"I'm counting on you, Windspeed. Please follow the coastline and see if there is any smell of blood!"

Lu Yi entrusted this difficult task to his most trusted partner.

He felt that the criminals would definitely not dare to commit crimes inside the Twin Islands. The elf population inside was very large, and it was rumored that the place was protected by Articuno. Committing crimes rashly would only make it impossible for the criminals to escape.

Therefore, if the first scene was this island, the criminal would definitely choose a sparsely populated location close to the coast to commit the crime.

They started from the southeast corner of the island and headed west, trying to trace the crime scene.

But as we walked, we saw densely packed houses and buildings in an area no more than two or three kilometers ahead.

Lu Yi frowned again, suddenly remembering something.

A few years ago, when the Honglian volcano erupted, Xia Bo led tens of thousands of residents of Honglian Island to live on the Gemini Island for a period of time.

The old man even opened the Red Lotus Gym here, so that the crimson badge representing the blazing fire appeared at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. The sense of disharmony of this story was once hotly discussed by a group of treasure-seekers on Earth!

Today, the Red Lotus Volcano has returned to stability, and the Red Lotus Island has also been restored to its original state after countless days and nights of repairs by the Elf Alliance. It is said that this temporary refuge area is basically uninhabited.

But in fact, there is also a small number of people who love the ice and snow environment, or those who have been deeply traumatized by the volcanic eruption, and they eventually stayed.

The Twin Islands are currently inhabited by people, and the number is not small.

So, is there really anyone who dares to commit crimes so openly in an area so close to the urban area?

Lu Yi continued to explore with Windy Dog with full of doubts. As expected, they did not find anything unusual along the way.

Realizing that his inference was not entirely accurate, Lu Yi had no choice but to observe carefully nearby for a while, and then returned to Honglian Island in a bad mood.

……

"Brother Lu Yi, are you really not going to take on the case of stolen jewelry?"

"Not for now."

"What about the property rights dispute case?"

"Let's put it aside for now."

……

In the evening, Lina returned to the Honglian Research Institute and came to Lu Yi holding the file bag she had sorted out.

She felt that several of the cases had a very high cost-effectiveness ratio. Not only were the remunerations generous, but the clients also had a certain social influence. Successfully closing the cases would definitely enhance the firm’s reputation!

But Lu Yi didn't seem to care about these things today. He plunged into the reference room, with several thick piles of books stacked in front of the table, and no one knew what he was studying.

Lina came forward curiously and found that Lu Yi was concentrating on learning about mathematical operations.

But the difficulty of that knowledge doesn't seem to be that high...

"Brother Lu Yi, why are you suddenly learning math?"

Hearing Lina's question, Lu Yi curled his lips and said helplessly: "Didn't I encounter a case of a drifting corpse during the day? I want to calculate the trajectory and speed of the drifting corpse myself. But there is no way, I have no education, I can only start from the more basic content..."

Hearing this, Lina almost blurted out "How long will it take you to learn this?" But then she thought about it and realized that Lu Yi had a powerful talent system and his learning ability seemed to be far beyond that of ordinary people.

So Lina swallowed the words in her heart and asked doubtfully: "Can't the police team calculate it?"

"No." Lu Yi shook his head.

“It should be possible to calculate it. Even if it’s not accurate to the exact coordinates, at least we can get a rough direction.

But the problem is that this measurement requires a lot of work, and it is also necessary to take into account the impact of the temperature difference between day and night on ocean currents, as well as the wind direction and wind speed in recent days. It is impossible to get an accurate result in a short time.

I can't wait, this is a murder case! I will never allow a murder case that I was involved in to go unsolved!"
