"Now, let's summarize the information collected these days!"

"Has the first scene of killing Chiba Ryo really been found now?"

"Sorry, we are still working hard, but there are large residential areas around, so far we have only completed the search work on the north bank of the Tama River..."

"Forget it, this kind of thing is like looking for a needle in a haystack, let's try harder!"

"I'm really sorry for this..."

Hearing that his subordinates hadn't found the first scene of Chiba Shinichi's murder, Lin Xiuyi was just as anxious, but he didn't show it easily. According to the scene where Chiba Ryoshin's body was placed and the surrounding environment, those kidnappers must have cars in their hands, and based on the minimum cost of the crime, the range that can be reached within 20 minutes by car is the first crime scene. most likely location. It was based on this consideration that Lin Xiuyi would let his subordinates search for the first crime scene within a broad range. However, all this is only speculation from the perspective of probability, and it is not necessarily 100% accurate.

"How is the social relationship investigation of the deceased Chiba Ryo really?"

"We didn't find much about this either! The deceased Chiba Ryo was really from Gifu Prefecture, and he only moved to Tokyo in the last two years, so his main social connections were also in Gifu Prefecture. We only know Ryozhen Chiba should have been visiting Tokyo during a summer vacation 2,000 years ago. During this period, he was discovered by a brokerage company in a theater around Shimokitazawa... Later, because of the smooth development, Ryozhen Chiba transferred to Tokyo. Horikoshi High School. According to the information we learned from the brokerage company... Chiba usually has a very full schedule. In addition to work, he also needs to take into account his studies on weekdays. Therefore, his social circle should also be limited to offices, arts and crafts. Nokai, and colleagues from Horikoshi High School..."

"Among these people, is there anyone who is in close contact with Chiba Ryozhen on weekdays?"

"In Horikoshi High School, there are some classmates who have a good relationship with Chiba. According to what they described, Chiba has a good personality, usually speaks very humorously, and he looks very handsome, among his classmates. The reputation is still very good!”

"Wait a minute, I remember you mentioned Shimokitazawa? How long has he been there?"

"Based on what we've heard from his family, it appears that he got an offer from an agency within a few weeks of his arrival in Tokyo...and he hasn't basically been back there since then. So... ...We focused our investigation on the office and Horikoshi High School..."

"As soon as I arrived in Tokyo, I was seen by the agency's people, and I was lucky enough to be favored by fate! But... why did Chiba Ryozhen stay in Shimokitazawa during the summer vacation? If ordinary people come to Tokyo for tourism If so, wouldn’t they all go to places like Akihabara? If Shimokitazawa is said to be more popular with the locals!”

As soon as Lin Xiuyi said these words, he immediately left the police officer who went to investigate Qianye Ryozhen's social relations and was speechless. An embarrassed expression appeared on the other party's face immediately.

"I'm very sorry, it's because my subordinate's investigation wasn't serious enough!"

"Be serious. Are there still kidnappers waiting for us? They have made such a complicated case. Is Chiba's death the end of the case?"

"I am so sorry!"

...

Seeing a good-tempered Lin Xiuyi suddenly became angry, everyone present hurriedly stood up and bowed to Lin Xiuyi to apologize. Lin Xiuyi waved his hand to let everyone sit down again, and then said to everyone worriedly:

"I've always been a little unsure about one thing. Did you say that the 113 million yen ransom was robbed by the kidnappers?"

"Sir? At the gas station, we all saw the kidnapper set fire to himself. Before setting it on fire, he grabbed a lot of money and threw it into the sky..."

"That's right, people from the TV station also took pictures of the scene at that time, and the travel bag is exactly the same as the one we prepared in advance..."

...

When everyone heard Lin Xiuyi's questioning, they couldn't help but talk about it. Everyone didn't understand what Lin Xiuyi said just now.

"Have you ever thought about the possibility that kidnappers lured us to that gas station? The purpose is to make us think that the money will be burned to ashes?"

Lin Xiuyi cautiously put forward this assumption in his mind to his subordinates.

"But... the police department, if you say so, since the kidnappers have already received the ransom, then they shouldn't have planned to let Qianye Liangzhen come back alive in the first place, right?"

"But for the 100 million yen ransom, just to convince the police that the money has been turned into ashes, he did not hesitate to let his accomplices commit suicide. No matter what you think... the price that the suicidal guy paid is too high?"

...

Everyone was talking about it, but Lin Xiuyi was once again immersed in his own thinking. Now the focus of the question is whether the ransom has been taken by the kidnappers. Because the explosion at the gas station was too violent, and the subsequent fire-fighting work severely damaged the scene, the whereabouts of the ransom money could no longer be traced. As for Qianye Ryo's death, Lin Xiuyi was quite confident that it was a suicide assisted by others. However, because there is no specific object of suspicion, these assumptions cannot continue to be investigated for a while~lightnovelpub.net~ If Chiba Ryo is really the mastermind of this case, what is the reason? Is it just to compensate Kobayakawa Nana? So... Could it be that the kidnapper's next goal is to give the money to Kobayakawa Nana? "

Thinking of this, Lin Xiuyi suddenly seemed to have caught something, and a long-lost smile gradually appeared on his face.

"If the female star used a pregnancy test stick to deceive Chiba Ryozhen and it was discovered, the murderer might have attacked Nana Kobayakawa! But in doing so, Nana Kobayakawa's privacy must be leaked out. But If those kidnappers will really satisfy Chiba Ryoshin's wishes and use that ransom as compensation for Kobayakawa Nana, I think it won't be long before Kobayakawa Nana will find that there will be an inexplicable amount of money in her account. Come……"

"Everyone, I want to ask you one thing!"

Just when everyone was arguing about Lin Xiuyi's assumption, Lin Xiuyi suddenly opened his mouth and said to everyone:

"I want you to investigate Kobayakawa Nana's private account and see if there have been any abnormal financial transactions recently?"
