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

"You said earlier that you two met them when they were setting up a stall at the entrance of the village. Which direction did they go at that time?"

Lu Yi raised a more critical question based on the aunt's previous description.

Yushi Town is located in the northern part of the Kanto region. In order to conduct maritime trade with developed cities, the village entrance of the town is located on the south side, very close to the port where the police force landed.

"It seems to be the west, right?" The aunt frowned and turned her eyes to the lower right.

"West?" Lu Yi was a little confused. Since these two children were going to the mountains to the west, why would they choose to take the south exit?

"Yes, it's the west side."

Behind the aunt, the middle-aged man with a messy beard said with determination.

"There is a rule in the village that all exits except the main entrance will be closed at 6 o'clock every evening to prevent villagers from being harassed by wild Pokémon at night."

"It was already past 6 o'clock when the two children left, so no matter where they went, they had to pass through the main entrance. Our couple clearly remember that they turned right after going out, that is, to the west."

Hearing this, Lu Yi nodded thoughtfully, while Muzi beside him recorded the key clues again.

The next few people chatted for a while, but the couple could only provide so much information, so Lu Yi and the two said goodbye politely.

Before leaving, the couple said very seriously that if the police force needs manpower, they must let them help, even if it is already late at night.

Lu Yi and Muzi continued to visit, and there were still 5 households with which they had not communicated.

However, the villagers in these five houses, like the first few households, failed to provide any effective clues at all and all returned home before dark.

The only person who can be regarded as valid information is an old man from the 9th household. He said that at three or four o'clock this afternoon, he brought some dried fish as snacks to the two boys.

Therefore, Lu Yi and Muzi completed their visit early, and met with their colleagues coming from the opposite direction, gathering at the initial drop-off point at the entrance of the village.

Each group submitted valid information to Mr. Commander, who reviewed and reasoned it as quickly as possible.

"Well, everyone is very efficient. Next, I will summarize the clues collected by each team."

"First of all, the first team found out the life patterns of the villagers. They usually get up late because there are a large number of ghost-type Pokémon in the nearby mountains that are active at night. The villagers wait for the sun to rise completely every day to ensure that the ghost Pokémon are active at night. The Pokémon went back to rest before they dared to start normal activities throughout the day.”

"Therefore, their three meals a day are delayed, and dinner is usually served around 7 o'clock. The two children usually go home before 6:, but today they waited for a long time and didn't see anyone."

"Secondly, according to the description of the second team, the fishermen in the village determined that there were no ships coming and going today. In other words, there is no possibility that outsiders abducted the children and took them away from the village."

"This is good news. Maybe the children were just lost in the mountains, but they are definitely still in the surrounding area."

"Third, among the clues provided by other teams, many villagers unanimously mentioned the existence of 'Bosozoku'. They live somewhere on the top of the mountain on the west side. They often race on mountain roads on weekdays. They are a group of people that need to be investigated. .”

"Finally, according to the report of Team 6, a couple in the village witnessed two boys running out of the village at around o'clock in the evening and heading towards the mountains to the west."

"This intelligence also records another key piece of information, which is that these two children are very popular among the lonely elderly people. We cannot rule out the motive of these elderly people wanting to keep them by their side."

After the commander finished speaking, he redistributed the record books of each team back.

“To summarize, the timeline we currently have is:

The two boys left the village at around 6 o'clock;

Then his parents started searching around 7 o'clock;

The police team received the call near 8 o'clock, which was the official dinner time at the alliance headquarters;

Then we arrived here after more than 3 hours of journey and conducted a half-hour investigation and visit. The current time is 11:44 pm. "

“The suspects we currently need to investigate are:

First, all the people who returned to the village from outside after 6 o'clock in the evening, especially the lonely elderly people, have most likely met the two boys outside;

Second, a blanket search needs to be carried out in the western mountains, and the location of the group of bosozokus needs to be locked in during the gradual advance;

Third, it is night time, and wild ghost-type Pokémon can also provide us with a lot of information, so we need to pay special attention when searching;

Fourth, the villagers who provided us with key information cannot be ignored. We must confirm that what the fishermen said is true because they are the most likely group of suspects to transfer two children by boat.

At the same time, we should also be vigilant about the two couples. They were the last witnesses to the whereabouts of the children and the last group of suspects who had access to the two children. "

After listening to Mr. Commander's summary and analysis, all the police officers unanimously agreed. Only Miss Muzi stood at attention and shouted "Report"!

Mr. Commander glanced at her. "explain."

"Reporting to the leader, I think the couple's suspicions can be ruled out directly! Because when they described the boy's whereabouts, their facial expressions showed obvious 'thinking' movements, such as slightly pursed mouths, slightly frowned brows, and eyeballs turned to the lower right, etc. .”

"According to the psychology of micro-expressions, this means that every answer they give has been carefully considered and is definitely described strictly according to what is remembered, rather than a prepared statement in advance!"

"Furthermore, Lu Yi and I have two partners in our team, Big Milk Tank and Pippi. The former can provide delicious milk, and the latter, as a fairy Pokémon, not only has a cute face, but also has a somewhat charming voice. The ability to relax.”

"With the support of many environmental factors, it is absolutely impossible for those two peasant couples who have never received professional anti-investigation training to deceive us!"

After hearing Muzi's description, Mr. Commander thought for a moment and then nodded in agreement.

"Well, your analysis is very good. This couple can be ruled out as suspects."

After saying this, the commander still frowned very seriously.

"But the current situation is still very serious. Facing the surrounding mountains, we don't have many people. We have to be divided into several groups to perform different tasks. Everyone has to race against time tonight."

After hearing the chief's words, the police officers nodded seriously, but Lu Yi, who was standing at the end of the team, suddenly made a report.

The commander glanced at him suspiciously, wondering if this guy had any additional information?

"explain."

"Reporting to the leader, I would like to apply for the task of investigating the Bosozoku. I have dealt with this type of group before and am quite familiar with them!"

Hearing this, the commander looked at Lu Yi very seriously.

"We don't know anything about the other party's team size, strength level, moral character, etc. In this case, are you sure you can investigate them alone?"

"Yes!" Lu Yi replied seriously.
