I paid too much for the manga highlights

260.

"Officer Chiyoya, someone is looking for you!"

Wearing a police uniform, the young man who was sitting upright raised his head when he heard the words, and smiled gently at his colleague: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

"Don't be so polite." The colleague waved his hand and said enthusiastically, "And if it's not a major meeting in the future, you don't need to wear a uniform. Regular clothes are enough."

"Understood." The black-haired young man nodded earnestly, obviously as a courtesy, he said thank you again, and then got up and left the office.

After he left, there was a super obvious voice of relief in the office. Several people looked at each other for a while, and all laughed out loud at the same time.

Yijiang who just stopped Chiyoya Toru pretended to wipe his tears, and exaggeratedly said: "As for it? As for it! Police officer Chiyoya is not very easy to deal with."

"Don't wipe your sweat now!" The colleague next to him teased, "The Star of Justice has really come to us to search the three departments, and it looks like the rumors, he is a super-strict person."

"But also a good temper." Another added, "It just feels like if you slack off in front of him, the consequences will be serious."

"But I heard that there is a magic spell around him. Every time he goes out, he will encounter a big case, and he will be admitted to the hospital almost every three days. If it is true... our workload will soar in the future, right?"

"Come on, don't let Officer Mu Mu see it, and you will be punished again then." Officer Yi Jiang waved his hand, heaved a sigh of relief, and let go of the strange tension in the face of the younger generation.

Chiyoya Saori didn't know that the seniors in the office had demonized her image into a fairy who came down from the sky to cross the catastrophe, and even developed a honeyed awe towards her.

She was almost overwhelmed by the warm welcome when she came.

I guess they think they can finally solve the case seriously and pull the average of the police?

In human terms - you can hug your thighs!

·

The heater in the office was fully turned on, and it felt a bit cold when he came out. Chiyoya Saori lowered his head and let out a sigh of relief, and was instantly swooped by a gorilla from behind——and grabbed him directly.

Chiyotani Saori who almost elbowed her past: "..."

Should she be glad she didn't carry a gun?Otherwise, it would be a real horror story if the conditioned reflex drew the gun!

But she seems to be able to say that she came back from a trip to Syria...

"Good boy, you only came back a few days before you took office. How many beauties in Hawaii make you so happy?"

Hagiwara Kenji's sloppy voice sounded, completely unaware that he was so close to being hospitalized just now: "If I hadn't heard from the policewomen of the Ministry of Communications that the 'Star of Justice' had come to take office today, you might have asked us to carry a big sedan chair Go to your house to invite you?"

Chiyoya Zaori gasped. Although she knew that these two guys would definitely come, she never expected that she would be caught after only half a day at work.

She turned her head helplessly: "It doesn't seem like this is the way to carry a big sedan chair?"

"Focus on me, you bastard!" Matsuda Jinhei also came over at this time, stuffed a paper cup half filled with warm water into her hand, and looked up and down, "You're the only one to wear this shabby uniform, and it doesn't have much effect on keeping warm. , walking outside won’t freeze you to death!”

Chiyotani Saori just smiled, she awkwardly pinched the top of the paper cup that was not submerged in water, and changed the subject: "Aren't you two busy today?"

Matsuda Jinpei had a panoramic view of the movement, and gave an inexplicable "tsk".

"There are so many bombing cases." Hagiwara Kenji held one in one hand, seemingly unintentionally picked up the overcoat, and hung it on a uniformed police officer. He complained, "We all It's almost ready."

Because Chiyoya Toru couldn't find anyone for two or three days, Matsuda Jinhei and Hagiwara Kenji came to search and squat in the first class when they had nothing to do. Give it a familiar face.

"I originally planned to go and ask you to meet when I came back, but everyone is busy."

Nai He's ability to throw blame is extremely proficient, and he even plausibly said: "Zero and Hiro don't know where they went, and there is a serial case on the monitor's side—there are only you two left, and now I'll see you as soon as you come here."

"Emotions, do you think we are too idle?"

"By the way, I brought a souvenir!"

Matsuda Jinpei asked suspiciously, "Is it just for the two of us, or are there other colleagues?"

Chiyoya Saori blinked, feeling that this question was a bit fatal.

But before she could speak, Matsuda Jinpei said again: "By the way, you must have brought a bunch of strange things, let me tell you that Officer Megure has actually been constipated in the past few days—"

"Matsuda Jinpei! What are you talking about again?" Mumu Shisan's voice sounded angrily behind several people, "And Hagiwara, can't you two stay in peace? Don't come to our three departments all day long. Go hook up!"

"What do you mean hooking up, Officer Mu Mu, don't be so angry."

Hagiwara Kenji turned around like a spinning top holding the two of them, and turned the two under him to Meguro Shisan. The latter saw the capable general who had just reported to take office today, and his expression full of anger froze for a moment, and soon recovered He looked serious.

"Cough, Chiyoya, it's just right for you to be here." The police department with a serious look pushed away Matsuda Jinhei and Hagiwara Kenji's claws in disgust, and embraced Chiyoya Haori, then turned to call a few more people's names at the office.

He said: "There is a case, you can go together."

Chiyotani Saori nodded obediently, looking at Memu Shisan for a while, feeling relieved.

Fortunately, Toru Chiyoya was assigned to him because of his good personality, otherwise he would be angry and bald sooner or later!

Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji didn't speak at all, they stood at the end tacitly, and followed the police car with a smile in the eyes of Police Officer Megure.

[Tears filled the eyes, is it finally the content of Yangjian?The organization chapter almost didn’t see me as autistic]

[I laughed to death hahaha, Matsuda, are you possessed by the Dream of the Red Chamber!Matsuda Baoyu last time, this time Matsuda Daiyu! ]

[By the way, is this Gran or Toru?I feel like toru but the details are cool...]

[Obviously it's Gran, her acting skills have gotten better after a few months of practice, but the details are still obvious, such as being shoulder-mounted just now. #图：Gran subconsciously wants to attack Hagiwara, raises his hand and puts it down#]

[The smile disappears in an instant. jpg Mazda! ! hagi! !Save the children!Whether my toru can come back depends on you! (hugs thigh and cries)]

"I received a call to the police 10 minutes ago. The caller was Hideo Mizukawa, an employee of the Tianyong Doll Museum, and the deceased was the director of the Tianyong Kanhe." In the car, Police Officer Mumu explained the case to several people, "The specifics We’ll get to know the situation in the past.”

Matsuda Jinping was in charge of driving, and said casually, "This Tianyong Doll House seems to be quite popular recently?"

"It didn't seem to be the name in the past. This Tian Yongkuanhe changed his name not long after he took office, and remodeled the dolls in it, sold many old dolls, and organized a performance of "Puppet Fairy Tale Drama". It's being announced."

Hagiwara Kenji answered: "I still got a few tickets. If nothing happened, we could have gone to see it together."

"Hey, Police Officer Chiyoya, when will you have a meal?" He bumped Chiyoya Saori who was thinking with his shoulder.

Chiyoya Zaori came back to his senses: "What? This afternoon."

Police officer Mu Mu sat on the co-pilot and said angrily: "The case has not been solved yet, don't be so relaxed! By the way, the three of you seem to be in the same class?"

"That's right, with this genius in charge, the case will definitely be resolved in minutes." Kenji Hagiwara said with a smile, "Officer Megure will be able to enjoy the blessings in the future."

Chiyoya Saori coughed lightly, and complimented: "There are still many things to learn from Police Officer Megure."

Mu Mushisan felt itchy when he saw Hagiwara Kenji's hippie smiling face, but he did relax a lot. He nodded reservedly: "Don't worry too much, learn and accumulate experience slowly on the spot."

"clear."

Chiyoya Saori didn't get involved in the gags of a few people, she looked at the information of the puppet hall on her mobile phone, and always felt that she had a flash of inspiration when she got the title last time, and it seemed to flash again.

[You say... If there is a puppet exactly like me. 】She thoughtfully said to the Q version customer service from the bottom of her heart,【Then can I have two people? 】

Q version customer service complained: [But you can't remotely control the puppet's actions, and it's easy to be recognized! 】

Chiyoya Saori went to the shopping mall and found that the dolls that can pretend to be real people cannot be manipulated at all, but the dolls that can be manipulated cannot be further simulated. She wants the props that both have - she can't afford it!

But at that time, she really thought about the opportunity to separate the two identities from the anchor point, what was missing...

261.

"Toru, we're here!"

Kenji Hagiwara opened the car door, turned around and saw Toru Chiyotani was still in a daze, he couldn't help shouting, the latter seemed to wake up suddenly, smiled at him and got out of the car.

The semi-long-haired police officer subconsciously brushed his hair, and followed Matsuda Jinhei who got off the driver's seat and turned his sunglasses.

The two got together.

Because Matsuda Jinhei and Hagiwara Kenji do not belong to the third department in essence, and there are brand-new juniors at the scene, Megushisan did not detain them, but let Chiyoya Toru take on the responsibility of recording and investigating, and followed him to solve the case .

The puppet hall is empty, but there is no lack of "popularity". Many small dolls are displayed in the entrance hall, each of them is vivid, and there are some life-like dolls like eggs in the corners, which will scare tourists from time to time. Jump.

At this time, it was still in the maintenance period of closing business, and there was no one there. In the lobby, there were three guys with sad faces, and they were excited when they saw the police.

"Little Jinpei, do you think there is something wrong with toru?" Kenji Hagiwara stood at the door, crossing his arms and looking at Toru Chiyoya who followed to solve the case.

Matsuda Jinping pondered for a moment: "Could it be that it's too cold to freeze my brain? I really lost my mind early in the morning."

Hagiwara Kenji: "...Do you dare to say it in front of him? But that guy should be very happy in winter."

Matsuda Jinping curled his lips and let out a "tsk".

He thought that Toru Chiyoya's fear of heat had almost improved, but he didn't see him for two months, which seemed to be worse than in summer and autumn.

I don't even want to dip a cup of warm water, and I wear such thin clothes, just in case I catch a cold again...

He frowned secretly, thinking about how to suppress this difficult period to cure this bad problem.

Kenji Hagiwara rubbed his chin: "Also, should we tell him about meeting Chiyoya Saori? Did Kofukuya tell him or didn't he?"

Matsuda Jinpei was taken aback, thinking of the woman who pinched his face indifferently, as if confirming something, felt a little annoyed.

"Or... don't mention it, okay?" He whispered, "Zero and his sister are obviously not strangers, if you don't know whether he said it or not—you can ask Toru if he found it?"

In any case, everyone is searching for a lesson, and Chiyotani Toru will figure out these things sooner or later.

----------------

"The deceased Tianyong Kuanhe, 45 years old, curator of the puppet hall, died between [-]:[-] and [-]:[-] last night. The cause of death was excessive blood loss, and the fatal wound was in the throat."

Chiyotani Haori followed the forensic doctor, observing the condition of the corpse.

It can be said that Tian Yong Kanhe died very uneasy, his eyes were staring, his face was full of horror, and the bloodstains on his neck were deep and thin. The thread can cause this kind of wound.

He died on the stage of the hall where the theater puppets were placed, looking up at the curtain dressed up as a starry sky, and puppets dressed up as black swans, white swans, red shoes and other well-known images stood quietly by the side of the stage, watching this everything.

The silk of the red shoes doll didn't stand upright, and it was scattered on the ground, mixed with blood. Chiyoya Saori found that the clothes on its shoulders had strange folds.

Because the dolls are too delicate and human-like, people who watched them at close range couldn't help but have the uncanny valley effect.

Spooky and artistic.

"She was the first person to be discovered and called the police." A policeman pointed to the woman standing aside.

Shui Chuanxiu is a thin woman, only 1.5 meters, 28 years old this year, responsible for cleaning the puppet hall.

"Just call me Axiu. I'm not used to being called by my full name." She timidly said, "I was on duty yesterday, and I fell asleep after being too tired. I woke up at 09:30 in the morning to clean up as usual. When I opened the door, I found The curator fell into a pool of blood and was not breathing, and I don't know anything else!"

"Then I called the police 10 minutes later, at [-]:[-], Mizuyakan came to check the doll's makeup, and at [-] o'clock, Yamashitagi came."

"It has nothing to do with me!" Standing next to Shui Chuanxiu, Shui was also about 1.6 meters five in width, which was considered short among men. He picked his fingers angrily, tore off the band-aid and put it on again.

Yamashitagi, who was 1.8 meters tall, also coughed, and said slowly, "I'm just here to help move things, I don't know anything."

Chiyotani Haori looked at Officer Megure's gloomy gaze, and knew that this was for her to take on the job of questioning.

She first flipped through the forum, and saw that the scene of them going to handle the case was gradually drawn in a corner of the comic, and she felt "Wuhu" in her heart.

It seems that we still can't just mix up the plot points like this!

262.

"Chiyoya, go ask for the suspect's alibi statement."

Mu Mu Shisan first hinted with his eyes, and found that the junior he was optimistic about seemed to be attracted by the corpse, staring straight at the dead in a daze, completely ignoring what he meant, so he uttered helplessly.

"Chiyoya Toru!"

"Oh, oh yes!" The black-haired police officer shuddered suddenly, and the notebook in his hand was thrown out of his hand, almost slipping into a pool of blood. He quickly stepped forward to pick up the notebook, and cheered up to question the suspects.

Police officer Mu Mu sighed, a little puzzled, why the junior who was so excited just now was suddenly in a daze on the spot.

Is it because the corpse is too scary?

impossible……

"My lady, let's talk first." Chiyotani Toru turned the pen around, tucked the notebook in the crook of his arm, and looked at Mizukawa Hideo intently.

The young man's black eyes were bright, as if containing a pool of clear water, and seemed to be somewhat melancholy. Axiu was stunned for a moment: "Last night I was on the night shift at the doll hall, but I fell asleep because I was too sleepy. In the middle of the night, I seemed to hear something The dog was barking, but I wasn't paying attention..."

"Impossible!" Standing beside her, Shui Yekuan subconsciously said.

"Huh?" The eyes of several people locked on him instantly.

Shui Yekuan immediately added: "It's impossible to fall asleep! I remember, Axiu, you drink coffee at night, because the dolls in the doll house are priceless, and the curator will be angry if you fall asleep!"

Axiu looked like she was about to cry or not: "I drank coffee, but I don't know what happened last night..."

"Sure enough, you are the murderer!" Shui Yekuan had just finished muttering, when he saw the young police officer staring at him with penetrating eyes, as if he had seen something, his tone suddenly became weak Stopped, "Otherwise, what else could be the reason..."

Chiyoya Toru put on a smile to comfort Mizukawa Hideo a few times, and seeing that the other person's mood had eased, he continued to ask: "Why did the curator come to this place so late, Miss Mizukawa, do you know?"

Axiu said: "He said he was going to perform a puppet show that is unparalleled in the world. He would come here every night to check the dolls one by one and prepare the script. When he was in high spirits, he would not come out all night."

"What about this gentleman?"

Shui Yekuan said: "I'm the makeup artist in charge of putting makeup on the dolls. I went home to rest after getting off work at [-] o'clock last night, but I live alone and no one can testify."

The remaining Yamashitagi who was in charge of carrying the dolls said directly: "I am a temporary worker in charge of carrying wooden dolls, because the dolls of the troupe are made of special materials, and the curator thinks that they are not good-looking when mixed with other dolls, so let me put the heavy ones together. move away."

Police officer Meguro frowned: "So are the troupe dolls all light dolls? Including props?"

Yamashitagi nodded, he directly stretched out his hand to pick up the doll of the same height beside him, and when he put it down, he cursed, clapped his hands, and patted off the stained fibers.

"The material is too soft, and it will fall off easily if the makeup is not set properly!"

Officer Megure was immediately disappointed. He thought that someone used the props that came with the doll to commit the crime, but according to what Yamashitagi said, the props of special materials could not cause the effect of cutting the throat.

"I had been chatting with the proprietress of the izakaya last night, and I didn't leave until about three o'clock in the morning. She can testify for me."

Officer Mumu nodded, and signaled the police officer next to him to ask the proprietress for questioning.

"Then Axiu and Shui Yekuan don't have a witness, and the puppet hall will be closed late at night. Only Axiu who lives here can directly contact the curator, and Shui Yekuan has the key to enter the door, right?"

"But there will definitely be some movement when I enter the door." Shui Yekuan said, "What's more, if the curator sees me at night, he will be suspicious no matter what? It's impossible to let me do it like that."

This makes sense. The expression of the deceased Tian Yongkuanhe was too ferocious when he died, as if he had seen something incredible and was so frightened that he didn't even have the strength to struggle. This is not normal.

When Mu Mushisan took over the notebook and continued to interrogate the suspect, other police officers from the forensic department were also collecting evidence non-stop.

"The residents next to the puppet hall also came to complain, saying that their dog was fed poisonous buns by someone last night, and died long ago. They went to bed early and found nothing abnormal."

Mu Mu Shisan frowned: "Is it possible that an outsider broke in?"

Matsuda Jinhei and Hagiwara Kenji didn't intend to keep fishing. They listened to the question and answer for a while, and then began to walk around the room one after the other. They fumbled here and there, and soon found a few abnormal points.

The bloody fishing line wrapped in the "red shoes" silk, the sawdust and obvious scratches under the door of the performance hall, and the blood characters hidden under the curator's hands seem to be a random word "show". No matter how you look at it, the most suspicious Most of them are Shu Chuanxiu who stayed here and slept in the night shift.

Chiyotani Toru also followed to investigate the scene, but his eyes slipped past the busy people on the field from time to time, and every time he happened to look away when he was about to meet people's eyes.

Matsuda Jinpei only felt that someone was staring at his back itchyly, but he didn't find anything unusual every time he turned his head.

The puppets all over the venue opened their eyes straight, looking at the people shuddering.

"Hey hagi, take a look quietly for me, is there someone watching me?" He took time to grab Kenji Hagiwara and whispered, "I always feel irritated."

Hagiwara Ken was still holding the evidence bag in his second hand, he subconsciously turned his head when he heard this, and happened to meet Chiyoya Toru's eyes.

The police officer with purple eyes blinked and made a wink gesture, the latter looked away as if fleeing for a moment, Kenji Hagiwara seemed to see Chiyotani Toru's reddened ears for a moment.

Is this guy thick-skinned or thin-skinned?

Thinking of the first time they met, Chiyoya could die in place just by showing his abs, Hagiwara Kenji raised his eyebrows, thinking to himself...

Could it be that Toru finally realized that he had neglected the two of them all the way, and he was going to wait for an apology and feel embarrassed?

"You are too sensitive, everyone is just looking for clues." He said casually, concealing the truth.

Matsuda Jinpei said suspiciously: "Really?"

Hagiwara Kenji tilted his head and said sincerely: "Otherwise—who do you think is looking at you?"

Matsuda Jinpei: "If I knew, I would still ask you? How can anyone look for clues and stare at people with such sticky eyes?"

"Slimy?"

"Yes, it's like the kind of dog who hasn't seen meat in 800 years and suddenly sees meat buns falling from the sky!"

Hagiwara Kenji gasped: "Xiao Zhenping, do you want to be a meat bun or..." Do you want toru to be a dog?

"Anyway, you'd better just tell me what you said!" He patted himself on the shoulder seriously, "Otherwise, the meat buns will turn into minced meat."

Matsuda Jinpei gradually couldn't keep up with Hagiwara Kenji's train of thought, he turned around and looked around, but he did not see the source of that strange gaze, but once again met the ghostly gaze of the puppet, and immediately shuddered: "?? ? What, what?"

Police officer Mu Mu is still interrogating several suspects about their past entanglements. Shui Chuanxiu is pointed out that Tian Yongkuanhe has signs of pursuing her, and it is obviously impossible for the former to agree to the pursuit of a man who is so much older than himself.

But in this way, she seemed to have complete motives for killing people.

"I really didn't!" Axiu argued, "The curator is so much taller than me, but he is a man. How could I kill him alone at night?"

This makes sense, and even if the murder weapon has been found, a bloody piano wire is more evidence that Axiu doesn't have enough strength to strangle the curator.

The other two men were strong, but there was no alibi for Yamashita, and no conclusive evidence for the rest of Shui Yekuan.

The case was at an impasse for a while.

Police Officer Mu Mu subconsciously looked at the people around him, wanting to dig deeper and string together some clues, but the explosive duo who had a good brain and would get together were muttering in the corner at the moment, looking like they were discussing, but Chiyoya Toru, whom he was optimistic about, was looking at the doll, frowning - as if in a daze.

At this time, the police department, who was still considered young, suddenly had a headache.

Didn't it mean that Chiyotani Toru's handling ability is top-notch, and the key clues can be seen in almost any case at a glance?

How come he stays like this under his hands!

"Hey, Mr. Police, we still have our own business later, when can we leave?" Yamashitagi looked at the time, "I have wasted more than an hour, and I have to go to work elsewhere."

Shui Yekuan also nodded: "If I have finished asking, can I leave?"

Police officer Mu Mu pondered: "Well, everyone go back first, and I will notify you later if there are other clues. Miss Shuichuan, please go back with us."

Axiu suddenly showed despair: "But it's really not me!"

"I know who the murderer is." Chiyoya Toru walked up to Megushisan and coughed lightly, "Let's solve it directly."

Immediately, everyone's eyes were fixed on him.

The young man had a straight back, and in his white-gloved right hand were holding two evidence bags, each containing piano wire and several fibers.

"But before that, I still have a few questions to ask you." He smiled slightly, and said in a very confident and unhurried manner, "It won't take much time for everyone."

"Let's start with Ms. Mizukawa."

The woman who was stopped wiped her tears and said seriously: "So do you believe my words? Officer Chiyoya?"

The black-haired youth calmly said: "The truth will not wrong any innocent person, nor will it spare any criminal."

"That's what the law and the police do."

On the side, Matsuda Jinhei, who was standing onlookers, suddenly licked Hagiwara Kenji's waist, and said softly when the other party turned his head: "Hagi, do you think that with Toru's level of care, he would miss a small detail?"

"What?" Kenji Hagiwara was startled.

"For example——" Matsuda Jinhei looked at the high-spirited and methodical contemporaries in the distance, narrowed his eyes, and said, "When Ms. Shuichuanxiu clearly stated that she doesn't like being called by her full name, but should be called Axiu, do you still use the honorific name? "
