She decided to confess to him

71

After Sato Maki returned to his seat, he was informed that "your companion went to the toilet".

Ten minutes passed, and Imai Sumiya did not come back.Maki felt a little uneasy.

Another ten minutes later, the concert was about to start, and Sumiya Imai's seat was still empty.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

The salute to celebrate the start of the concert was fired, and amidst the sound, Maki seemed to hear a special roar.But the bang was quickly submerged in the chaotic salute and the cheers of the crowd.

Inexplicably, Maki's heart skipped a beat.

Xiao Imai, why haven't you come back yet?

Not far from the concert venue, on a remote road, the police set up a red and white cordon around the charred vehicles in the green belt and the explosion scene billowing in smoke.

"2 dead and 6 injured."

The police department said to a serious young man wearing glasses beside him, he let out a nervous breath, "We came late, but luckily it didn't lead to too serious consequences."

A while ago, the police station received news that a wanted and fugitive blaster was suspected to be in this area. They suspected that the wanted man might have done something at a concert where many people gathered.However, before the start of the concert, there was new news that more precisely indicated that the wanted criminal appeared in another location to commit crimes.

This urgent news disrupted their deployment, and under the shortage of manpower, the police station entrusted an armed detective agency to accompany them in the investigation separately.

The yellow-haired young man next to the police department is one of the investigators of the Armed Detective Agency. The investigators all have special abilities different from ordinary people, and they are good partners of the police department. The police often respect them very much.

Kunikida Doppo frowned: "No, it's still too late. The sacrifice has already been made, and it's my negligence."

It was because of his misjudgment that he did not concentrate all his staff here, but dispatched Osamu Dazai as his partner to another location to act separately.If Dazai was here, maybe he could have found the Demoman faster and prevented him from hurting people.

"The wanted bomber was confirmed dead. The other deceased was a woman whose whole body was blown up, and her identity could not be confirmed for the time being. The rest of the injured were minor injuries as they passed by the affected vehicle," the Little Police Report reported.

"Investigate the monitoring and find out the identity of this woman."

Kunikida Doppo still frowned, listening to the police department issue such an order to his subordinates.

The concert was in full swing, and Maki was rummaging through the monitor playback in the background.

When she saw Imai Sumiya and a strange tall man pushing and shoving to leave the venue through the back door, Maki couldn't help covering her mouth and crying helplessly.

74

The police took Maki to the scene of the explosion.

The smell of gunpowder smoke was accompanied by a thick smell of blood, scorched black, and the ground was covered with charred black.Reddish-brown plasma spread out from under the white cloth covering the scene, and Maki had a premonition in his heart.

She crossed the cordon in a daze, and walked towards the big white cloth.A policeman tried to stop her, but Kunikida Doppo stopped him.

Maki lifted the white cloth.

Minced meat, offal, mutilated limbs.

Viscous black-brown blood was everywhere on the corpse whose lower abdomen had been completely pierced.It is tattered, tattered everywhere, no face, no clothes, no such exquisite dress, such a beautiful body before birth.

only hair.The golden hair, which was originally as smooth as a waterfall, was tangled up outside his head in a mess.

This is, her, Miss...?

The eldest lady is obviously the one who loves cleanliness the most?

Maki knelt down in front of that mass of gray blond hair, completely devastated.

"Ah... woo... ah..."

"Imai... ah..."

75

Can't bear to watch, can't bear to listen.Everyone looked away, including Kunikida Doppo.

"The identity of the female deceased can be confirmed. Clean up the scene." Someone ordered.
