【L月L】Inquisitor

"L, what do you think of the two tapes?"

L stepped onto the cushion of the sofa and squatted on it.He sat with his knees hugged, and his movements looked a little childish.The skin was too pale, and the raised ankle bones looked like marble sculptures, and blue blood vessels could clearly be seen intertwining under the skin.On the coffee table in front of him were three video tapes sent by KIRA, which were neatly placed in evidence bags. L carefully pinches the edge of the bag, as if observing carefully through the plastic.

"To be honest--I think the actions of the second KIRA are a bit strange. Matsuda, when will the results of the biological collection on this be the fastest?"

When Matsuda heard his name, he frantically dug out the documents, "Five—oh no, it's six days, around the 20th."

"Too late."

Matsuda showed a embarrassed expression, "But——"

"Okay, Matsuda, let the technical department hurry up."

Yagami Soichiro lost the patience to entangle in this matter, he rubbed the center of his brows with his index finger and thumb, the bruises under his eyes were piled up, and the white eyeballs were covered with red blood, showing his tiredness.

"L, why do you say that the second KIRA's behavior is a bit strange?"

L did not continue to answer his question, but turned his head to Du who was standing beside him, "Is there any abnormality in Ye Shenyue's monitoring recently?"

"Everything is fine at the moment."

"Any news from 'her'?"

"Although 'she' contacted the target without authorization as a test, the monitor recorded the conversation between them, and there was nothing unusual after that."

"That's it..." L's eyes were a little regretful, and his tone was very disappointed.

Matsuda turned his head and looked at Soichiro Yagami quickly, but Deputy Yagami didn't show any expression, so he turned his head again, as if to cover up the faint anger on his face.

Yagami Soichiro is not as calm as he appears in his heart. It may be because of the exhaustion of work all day long, or it may be some kind of evasive mentality. He faces Yagami's suspicion all the time, but he never takes the initiative to deal with it. Dealing with Ye Shenyue's matter, and choosing to believe in L seems to be his only choice.

"Is Deputy Chief Yagami still concerned about what happened to your son that day?"

Yagami Soichiro just remained silent.He admitted, but he still couldn't be calm.

"Actually, there is nothing to mind about this matter. KIRA is indeed attractive to some people in a sense, especially compared to criminals, he seems to be more likely to gain the trust of civilians and justice-seeking extremists... Sorry, I may not comfort you by saying this..."

"It doesn't matter, after all, it's still my problem."

L did not continue this topic, he withdrew his gaze.He knew very well that the problem of Ye Shenyue and his father was not within his scope of solution, but Ye Shenyue itself was like a mystery that needed to be solved urgently, and he always involuntarily wanted to dig and explore, and sometimes even seemed to go beyond the rules.

He arranged the bear biscuits in a strange shape. The cartoon bear pattern on the biscuits was like some kind of rough graffiti, and the lines were simply messed up.Some of the biscuits fell apart from being broken.They are paralyzed on the table, a little pitiful, like the broken walls after the war somewhere.

"About the second KIRA videotape, I would like to share some of my views. First of all, the second KIRA is obviously a believer of the first KIRA, and can't wait to get in touch with the first KIRA. Of course, it cannot be completely ruled out that the two people have The possibility of contact. Among the three videotapes, the first videotape is obviously a test. After our reply, the second videotape frankly expressed the admiration for the first KIRA and the idea of ​​contact. I think the third videotape, That is to say, the last videotape is particularly important. The documents sent along with the videotape may contain the information of their mutual confirmation, because we don't know what method they will use to confirm each other. I guess they will use the method of 'killing ability' The possibility of confirmation is the greatest, but this is very passive for us as an investigation.”

There was one more thing that concerned L very much.

Naomi Misora ​​handed her a report after contacting Yagamitsu.She put forward a hypothesis: Ray Panber may have been killed by the second KIRA who killed people by recognizing his face, so Ye Shenyue became the second KIRA suspect.Naomi Misora's reason is very good. She thinks that Yagamitsu's psychological bias towards KIRA and the suspicious look he showed when contacting her are enough for him to be investigated as the second KIRA.

This reasoning seems to be justified, but L still has doubts about Naomi Misora's guess.First of all, even if Ye Shenyue is the second KIRA, how did he know that RayPanber is the FBI?And how did he kill all the FBI agents at the same time?Secondly, he had a deep understanding of Yagami's intelligence. It was because Naomi Misora's reasoning seemed to be correct, so he had to wonder if this was a trap made by Yagami. If so, why would Yagami do it.

However, as far as the video tape is concerned, it seems that a lot of content is exposed, but it is mixed with a lot of deliberately confusing information, which can be said to be quite satisfactory.Under such vigilant conditions, the police still had the courage to send the video tape to the TV station. Apart from ignorance, they were extremely confident that they would not be arrested.

From this point of view, it is very similar to Ye Shenyue's behavior.

In any case, L always believed that Ye Shenyue would be his breakthrough.

"Although there is not much hope, we still need to conduct fingerprint and DNA extraction on the sent videotapes first, and then make police deployment on the locations mentioned in the two dates of 5.18 and 5.30. I'm afraid Director Ye Shen's home The monitor cannot be removed for the time being, and Ye Shenyue asked 'her' to continue to closely monitor, especially on May 5.18, Qingshan must pay special attention. In addition, the people Ye Shenyue came into contact with should be investigated one by one. Every move you make will be reported to me."

L's words made Yagami Soichiro's heart sink continuously, he wanted to doubt but didn't dare to doubt, just like every time he wanted to talk to Yagami Yue but never ended without a problem.Ye Shenyue's nonchalance made him unable to do anything, his face was so perfect that there was not even a gap to cut into.

He is like a rejected person, forever wandering outside the closed city.

"Sorry, I'm going to the bathroom."

Yagami Soichiro walked out of the door, and there was a long and narrow corridor outside the door.On the left is the floor-to-ceiling mirror, and he can clearly see his distressed appearance, as if he has been chased and killed by a wild beast behind him, and the hair on his temples has faded, revealing mottled gray.Instead of going into the bathroom, he walked to the end of the corridor and tried to push the door leading to the rooftop.

The doors of many high-rise buildings in Japan are locked, and the reason is self-evident.He pushed the handle hard without giving up, and found that the door was heavy but not locked, and the door gate was rusted, making a loud noise.He pushed open the door stubbornly, and the space suddenly opened up, but the sky outside the door was still gloomy gray.

He felt a little relief from his boredom, so he leaned against the wall.But soon a kind of frustration and shame spread in my heart, and I don't know why.He vaguely knew it in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. Not everything in the world could be solved.Sometimes people can only banish it to the edge of thinking, and only in this way can they feel more relaxed.

He took out his cigarette case from his pocket, with the last cigarette left in it, and rolled in the empty case.He took out his cigarette and fumbled all over his pockets, only to admit that he didn't bring a lighter.

Yagami Soichiro bit his cigarette and leaned against the wall, letting the wind from the roof blow wildly.Then he saw a pale hand stretched out in front of him, and a silver lighter lay in his palm.

"Want a lighter?"

The speaker is L.

He stood barefoot on the concrete floor, his bent back seemed to be crushed but stubbornly supported.

Yagami Soichiro froze for a moment, took the lighter, and the flame erupted from the lighter with azure blue flames, standing upright in the wind.

"Thank you."

The scorching breath of tobacco flows down the trachea, as if trying to dispel the depression in the heart along the exhaled smoke.White smoke, like lingering gray liquid.They are intertwined, filling the alveoli little by little, and paralyzing the brain.

"Do you think...it could be him?"

L didn't answer right away, rubbing his toes on his bare feet.

"Do you want to hear the truth?"

"Yes."

"I think he is," L said, "but not quite."

Yagami Soichiro seemed to be relieved, but a little disappointed, "You... what do you mean?"

L laughed, but he didn't answer, "What kind of person do you think he is?"

The flaring sparks burn the curly tobacco, flickering on and off, and there is a feeling of unease.

"he……"

Yagami Soichiro wanted to find some words to describe Yagami Moon, but then he found that he couldn't describe it at all.All language is reduced to a dry, lifeless writing, so flat, so powerless.Ye Shenyue's face also seemed to become hazy, and then slowly disappeared, leaving a pile of bewildered ashes.

"I thought I knew, but now I...don't either."

"I think Ye Shen...such a title is confusing, so I will call him 'Yue'. Although we have never met, I have a feeling-Yue is a person who is very similar to me. To be honest, I I really want to meet him, maybe he will become my friend."

"No, that's not accurate."

The wind from the roof blew his black hair into a mess, and his T-shirt kept swaying like a white flag. His thin body was crumbling, like a person walking against the wind.

"Not friends—only friends."

Yagami Soichiro was puzzled and desperately wanted an answer, an answer that had been stuck in his heart for a long time but he didn't dare to touch it.

"Even if he could be KIRA?"

"Deputy Chief Yagami," L said, "If Yue is KIRA, then who is I who resembles him?"
