Social animals don't deserve love

"Sister Fubuki, why are you going this way?" Junichiro Tanizaki turned the steering wheel and drove carefully on the narrow private road.While the police are still trying to track down the victims and keep the criminals out of their sights, we are finding another way along the digital information left on the road.

Since the person who was tied up was a family member of an official, the social influence and public opinion were relatively negative, and the Metropolitan Police Department was under a lot of pressure, so that they had to find ways to make more flowers in order to rescue the person earlier.

Like a chess game in the mist, I sit opposite an opponent who cannot see clearly, and the object of competition is the life of a stranger.

"If it's Mr. Ranpo, I've probably found the victim's current location..." I returned the information to Police Officer Xiaoshan who was fooled by us in a car. I turned on my phone and carefully compared the electronic map with the realistic terrain.

"Wow!"

The right front wheel accidentally ran over a stone and fell into a pit. Junichiro Tanizaki tried several times without success: "Everyone needs to get out of the car, I have to put some stones under the tire."

"In this way, I will continue to move forward, maybe I will be back soon, Junichiro, you and Officer Koyama stay here and get the car out as soon as possible."

I opened the door, jumped off the seat and patted the hood, Junichiro asked again: "Sister Fubuki, what is there?"

"Rabbit, this is the easiest place for motor vehicles to reach within ten kilometers from the scene of the sighting. It is a private rabbit zoo. The string of numbers on the ground is exactly the Bofici sequence, and the specific location can be calculated after substituting it in."

Tanizaki Junichiro: "..."

I understand every word you said, why can't I understand it together?What number is the wave?How do you count?From where?

"Otherwise, please ask Officer Xiaoshan to follow you, it's too dangerous to act alone."

His doubts are very reasonable. Considering my speed and speed, I decided to leave Mr. Police: "Junichiro, can [Xi Xue] move with you?"

The fact is that it is possible, so Officer Koyama was confused and was thrown alone on the side of the road to rescue the police car stuck in the dirt pit. Tanizaki Yin and I walked close to the rabbit zoo not far away with his supernatural power.

Other colleagues are diving into PortMafia or diving into the white whale, but it is better for me to sneak into the rabbit zoo.Well... In any case, the rabbits have a relatively strong smell, and they will not cause harm to me in other ways.

"Rabbit Cage No. 370, here we are." After finding the target, we found a letter from under the hay in the rabbit trough.The lop-eared rabbit who was kicked out of his job was so angry that he jumped up and down the cage, as if he wanted to rush out and give me a bite.The right hand opened the letter paper, and the left hand took out a few handkerchiefs from the pocket, folded them and stuffed them back, making sure that this place looks untouched.

"Then what should we do?" Junichiro stood by and guarded, for fear that someone who didn't know would run into [Xi Xue]'s range, and it would be too troublesome to explain.

I hurriedly read the letter paper and looked up for a while: "Ah...maybe I need to prepare a new report, it's a bit of a headache."

There is a waka on the letter paper, and the homophonic stems are flying.Translated into adult words, it means that the timing device in a certain place will tell a close viewing point of a "big firework".

——It is indeed possible to skip the stage of playing riddles and directly rush to the location of the abductee based on other reasoning. This "big firework" may really become a "firework" that attracts worldwide attention.I even suspect that this organization has no intention of letting go of the hostages alive... Of course, they will not kill them in advance. They will publicly execute the innocent kidnapped the moment the "fireworks" are dismantled, so as to hit the police department and raise the stakes. purpose of visibility.

"Huh?" The juvenile tilted his head inquiring expression very cute, like a timid little fox, since he is already the "head" of the family, I didn't rub his hair like I did with Adun: "Abductors have social demands , if they are not satisfied, the other party will tear up the ticket and publicly kill in a very vile way. In order not to be deducted from wages, Junichiro must not be discovered by others [Xi Xue] oh!"

"!"

For him who still has to raise his younger sister, the words "deduction of wages" are unheard of!

"Okay Sister Fuxue, I understand."

Said the young man concentrates on controlling the strange ability.

Back to the car, Officer Xiaoshan had already got the car out of the sinkhole. Before getting in the car, I called Officer Pu Qi, and after I informed him of the situation, I made him understand that he must listen to my arrangement, otherwise our detective agency would ignore it.

I don't want to fight my opponent on an invisible chessboard while cleaning up my own mess.

"Sergeant Pu Qi, do what I ask you to do, don't ask why, I will submit the relevant report afterwards, you can just go to the report."

The sheriff is a conscientious and responsible person, of course he would not let go of power based on the words of my family, but after I showed him the content on the letter paper, the stubborn but equally courageous sheriff gave in: "I don't want to It may make all the search and rescue teams under the Metropolitan Police Department act blindly, but I can lead my subordinates to follow your arrangement."

"Okay, please arrive at this address in an hour and take out a stack of handkerchiefs from under No. 370. Make it as if you can see the writing on it, which is what you see in the photo. One hour... is almost enough, Leave the rest to the Armed Detective Agency, and you should act according to the requirements of the Metropolitan Police Department, and I won't cause you so much trouble."

The time difference of one hour is enough for us to touch the criminal's feet and catch him.

Halfway through the drive, Mr. Kida from China called to ask if I needed support, and of course I did.Apart from my colleagues at the Armed Detective Agency, I can't think of anyone else who can remove the bait from the trap he set up under the supervision of the prisoner without triggering the alarm.

"Mr. Kunikida, please notify Hanako to track the surveillance signals in these places."

The prisoner is not on the scene, and he wants to control the overall situation and play the police like a mouse. Apart from infiltrating and manipulating the surveillance, human beings have no other technology to achieve it.

The other party immediately agreed, and lent me A Dun and Xian Zhi.

The best thing about these two children is that they can complete the requirements without compromise.

"Yada, Dazai and I will follow the police. You don't need to be under too much pressure to decipher. With Dr. Yosano, there is always a way to bring the victim back intact."

As expected of being the most reliable investigator in the whole society, Mr. Kunikida, I will never follow everyone to bully you again!

"Understood, please pay attention to your safety." Osamu Dazai could be heard yelling unwillingly on the receiver, "If I knew it, I wouldn't go back to the dormitory to catch up on sleep. I haven't cooperated with Fubuki-chan yet." nonsense.

Hanging up the phone, I asked Officer Xiaoshan to turn the car over to a public parking lot in the city: "Thank you for driving me for so long, please stop and go everywhere in the next two hours, don't stop at one place Don't go around in circles."

Officer Xiaoshan was very honest, blushing and nodded vigorously.Feel free to pat his rearview mirror, and Junichiro and I changed a taxi - the police car is too conspicuous, and it is easy to give away our whereabouts.

"Hello, please drive us to this place."

It is the abandoned garden mansion that the answer to the waka riddle points to. Only the locals in Yokohama know that it is a famous haunted house. If you pass by the door, you have to go to the shrine to wash your hands.

After some haggling, the driver said that he could send us to a location one kilometer away from the place, and then get off and ask Gao Ming.

I don't mind this much, it takes only a few minutes to walk one kilometer, and no one can see Junichiro and me under the shroud of [fine snow].

The call from Sergeant Pu Qi near the Western Mansion came again. Before I connected, I just saw the news that suddenly exploded on the social platform-an open letter from a social group to the Metropolitan Police Department.The letter asked the police to find and deal with a terrible crime within a time limit, otherwise the abductee would be killed.

— "If the poor lady dies, it will be entirely the fault of the incompetent police."

Anyone with a little intelligence and basic education can understand that this is nonsense, but thanks to the government's weak executive power for more than ten years, the public's trust in the social management... Ah, in short, there are really people who help to cover this scapegoat over the policemen.

please!Do you really think that the average policeman is superhuman?The case should be solved within 24 hours of reporting, the prosecution should be filed within 36 hours, and the trial should be completed within [-] hours?

"Don't worry, the blasting point will be found here immediately. You can monitor my real-time movements. Mr. Dazai has a terminal in his hand."

I never took off the button-mounted monitor clipped behind my collar, and had to buy batteries myself when it ran out of power...

The mansion was close at hand, and it was very difficult for Junichiro to maintain [Xi Xue], so after I found the clue target, I took a photo and withdrew: "The explosion site has been found, let's go rescue people."

After all, the Metropolitan Police Department is not a vegetarian. It is always no problem to find someone and find a car, and the location of the descendants of the car is not far away.Yokohama is not a super-large city with a vast territory. This social group must hide in a circle with a radius of five kilometers from the center of the abandoned vehicle. No matter how far away, people's mobility and supplies are limited.

As for why not go directly to rescue the hostages... No one can afford the consequences of not following the rules of the game and angering the prisoners.Even if there is only one ten-thousandth possibility that it is true, I will take it as a [-]% certainty and work hard.

The reminder in front of the mansion is a stone decorative sundial. On time, that is, the theoretical time when we arrive here one hour later is the answer that the prisoner wants us to see.But why do I have to follow other people's thinking?I only said that I must not follow the rules of the game to irritate the prisoners who planned everything, but I didn't say that I didn't cheat.

Especially with Junichiro around, you can rest assured that you will not be found out if you cheat boldly.

Well, I have to make a report to apply for a bonus for him.

The sundial, the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand, corresponds to the angle of the sun...

"Mr. Kunikida, the location of □ is on the trail outside the oil depot of the foreign garrison in the old concession area, just where the shadow of the setting sun can be seen. Please take someone to look for it in an hour. Junichiro and I will go to see the kidnapped first. Or how about, let Aton and Kenji come directly to meet us, and Dazai has my real-time movement track in his hand."

The monitor is a navigation tool if it is used well.
