Everything still has to start from the disappearance of Yano Tomomi.

After confirming this principle, Lin Xiuyi and Miki went to visit Mrs. Yano again. They want to do a careful inspection of Yano Tomomi's room to see what clues Yano left behind before she ran away from home.

"Ding dong!"

Lin Xiuyi stood in front of Yano's house and gently pressed the doorbell, and Mrs. Yano's voice came from the call system.

"You are?"

'I'm sorry to bother you again, Mrs. Yano! Last time my colleague Miki Nakayama and I asked you something about your daughter...'

As soon as Lin Xiu finished speaking, the courtyard door in front of him opened automatically. He gently pushed open the courtyard door and walked into Yano's courtyard with Miki. Immediately afterwards, the two came to the door of Yano's house, knocked gently on the door, and soon came the sound of the door opening.

"It's you! Please come in, have you caught the killer of Tomomi?"

Seeing Mrs. Yano's look of anticipation, Lin Xiuyi and Miki really felt a little guilty. Although everyone has been busy for a while, the case has not progressed much.

"Ma'am, Tommy's case is still under investigation, so it's not convenient for us to reveal anything for the time being! By the way, you said last time that Tommy's room has remained the same since she left home, right? We can watch it. see?"

Lin Xiuyi couldn't help feeling a burst of sympathy when he saw Mrs. Yano's expression of hesitating to speak. She knew that Mrs. Yano wanted to know what happened to Tomomi's case, but unfortunately, until now, the investigation of the case has not made any substantial breakthroughs.

Mrs. Yano nodded in disappointment. It has been nearly a year since Tomomi disappeared. Over the past year, Mrs. Yano has been waiting by the phone almost every day, waiting for news from Tomomi. Every time there was a knock at the door, every time the phone rang, every time a letter from Tomomi was found in the mailbox, it was a great comfort to Mrs. Yano. However, what Mrs. Yano finally waited for was Tomomi's arm, an arm that was cruelly cut off.

Lin Xiuyi and Miki quietly followed Mrs. Yano upstairs, and Mrs. Yano gently pushed Tomomi's room away. The furnishings in the room are still the same as when they came back.

"When I have nothing to do, I will come here and sit here. Tomomi doesn't like others touching her things, not even a mother like me. So, the place is still the same as when she left. For so long, I do some simple cleaning every day..."

Mrs. Yano's words sounded like she was talking to herself. Lin Xiuyi and Miki looked at each other, not knowing what to say. Lin Xiuyi took the white gloves that Miki handed over and put them on his hands, and then the two of them bowed slightly to Mrs. Yano to express their gratitude, and then entered Tomomi Yano's room again.

Miki nodded to Lin Xiu, then knelt on the ground and leaned down to check the items stacked under the bed. Lin Xiuyi started his investigation from the writing desk. In front of Mrs. Yano, he gently opened the drawer of the writing desk.

There were a lot of things in the drawer, mainly stationery and the like. Lin Xiuyi picked up a thick notebook, opened it and flipped through it. It seemed to be a note about his studies, but Lin Xiu put it aside without taking a close look.

In another drawer of the desk, there are things like hairpins and headbands that girls like. Lin Xiu picked it up and read it one by one, then put it back into the distance.

There is nothing unusual about the items in the drawer, and Miki is checking the clothes left by Yano Tomomi. This kind of thing is not very convenient for Lin Xiuyi to use. So after he searched the things on the desk, he stood up and walked to the row of shelves against the wall.

There were some magazines and comic books on the shelf. Lin Xiu picked them up and flipped through them, and found that they were all shoujo manga and shoujo magazines, which were in line with the preferences of girls of Yano Tomomi's age.

There are a few small rattan baskets with sundries on the shelves. There are some electronics like headphones inside. In addition, there are some snow crystal balls, plush dolls, etc., these things are nothing special.

wait...what is this? Lin Xiuyi suddenly found an iron box behind the plush doll. He picked it up and weighed it lightly, the weight on his hand told him what should be inside.

"Mrs. Yano, what's in this box?" Lin Xiuyi picked up the box and asked Mrs. Yano who was standing by the door to stop them.

"It seems to be a sewing box. I remember that Zhimei was fascinated by the sewing craftsmanship for a while, and I went to the gift shop to buy a special sewing box for her. At that time, Zhimei was very happy, and she worked hard in this area... …”

Lin Xiuyi took a careful look at the tin box. Although it was a long time ago, the paint has peeled off in some places, but the paint has been covered by the stickers, but it has a strange aesthetic feeling~www. lightnovelpub.net~ Lin Xiu walked to the desk and gently placed the tin box on the desk. As Mrs. Yano said, this tin box is indeed custom made. There is a bayonet at the top of the entire box. After gently opening the buckle, the box splits from the middle and splits to both sides.

At the top of the sewing box are spools of twenty different colors. The middle part is placed with needle bags, scissors, tape measure and other items. It can be seen that Yano Tomomi should be a very disciplined girl.

Just when Lin Xiuyi was about to close the sewing box again, he suddenly discovered a little secret on the sewing box. I saw that the black spool looked the most conspicuous of all the spools. There seems to be an unusually large amount of cotton thread on it. Wrap the entire spool.

Lin Xiuyi picked up the spool curiously and found that it seemed to be heavier than he expected. So he began to unravel the black cotton thread that was wrapped around it. It didn't take long to find what appeared to be text on it.

"Shiseido majolica Love Magic Mirror Mascara ~711 Exclusive ~ Pure Natural? It turns out that this is mascara, why is it hidden so deeply?"

Curious Lin Xiu untied all the cotton threads wrapped around it. The mascara, which had been hidden as a spool until this time, finally revealed its original appearance.

Because this sewing box is custom-made, the spool that goes with him also seems to be a bit larger than the normal spool, which is really about the size of mascara if you compare it.

This mascara has the words 711 exclusively on it, which means that it should be purchased in a 711 convenience store. But why did Tomomi hide it so deeply?

Lin Xiuyi stared at the bottle of mascara on the table and unknowingly fell into a deep thought.
