"Excuse me, where were you and what were you doing at ten o'clock this morning..."

"Excuse me, have you received a call from Jun Ono recently..."

...

In the investigation room of the Metropolitan Police Department, the detectives who searched Section 1 were questioning hundreds of teachers and staff members of Morimura Middle School and Suruga School, because Lin Xiuyi's first task was to identify the attack on Mrs. Tomoban. suspects who were unable to provide a reliable alibi during that time. However, to investigate so many people at the same time, the Metropolitan Police Department must obtain the approval of the local prosecutor's office and the local court. After all, the police can't arbitrarily arrest people.

The reason that the Metropolitan Police Department has announced to the public is based on the protection of these teachers. Unfortunately, this excuse will not last long. Lin Xiuyi has no choice but to make this decision now. According to Lin Xiuyi's prediction, the real murderer should deliberately want to divert the police's attention to Jun Ono, thus creating today's case. Although the message on the scene fits the characteristics of Jun Ono's bipolar disorder, it is actually a trap left by the murderer on purpose.

To Miki's surprise, Lin Xiuyi actually ran back to the office to make coffee at this moment, and he didn't look anxious at all. This made Miki, the only subordinate of the special search department, now the supreme commander of the scene. Many colleagues with higher rank than him kept coming to her to ask about work arrangements, but Miki naturally did not dare to give orders in place of Lin Xiuyi. So in a hurry, Miki had to ask Lin Xiuyi for instructions again and again.

Miki hurriedly pushed open the door of the special search department, and Lin Xiuyi was weighing the coffee beans on the electronic scale at this moment, and even Lin Xiuyi still had the intention to put the electronic scale one by one. Add coffee beans on top.

"Police, what the **** are you doing? Don't you know that the search class is now almost busy with our case!"

Seeing Lin Xiuyi's laid-back appearance, Miki couldn't help but said angrily.

"What's the matter, have you finished the work of inquiring about alibi?"

Lin Xiu stared at the weight displayed on the electronic scale without looking back, and there was no trace of nervousness in his tone.

"Not yet, but the police department, shouldn't you go out and pay attention to these suspects?"

Lin Xiu didn't respond to Miki's dissatisfied tone. He picked up a small coffee bean with small wooden tweezers and threw it on the electronic scale. After the value on the electronic scale stabilized, Lin Xiuyi was not satisfied. frowned. Then he picked up a larger coffee bean and put it back into the jar, and then picked out a smaller coffee bean and put it back on the scale.

Miki was dying of anxiety now. Seeing that Lin Xiuyi had no intention of leaving here, she simply ignored Lin Xiuyi. She snorted at Lin Xiuyi, then strode out of the room.

"Remember to wait until the screening is over and ask me to order some sushi to treat everyone!"

Miki had just left the room when she heard Lin Xiu's insignificant explanation, and Miki was completely speechless now.

...

The screening of suspects allowed a large number of front-line criminal police officers to be temporarily dispatched from the first section of the search. After the police officer in charge of the inquiry obtained the testimony of the other party in the interview room, he immediately passed the relevant information to the colleagues waiting outside. It can be proved that he is not at the scene of the crime to contact the relevant personnel. In addition to making phone calls, the main method of contact is to ask the policemen under the Metropolitan Police Department to come to the door in person to contact relevant personnel who cannot be reached.

This is a tedious and monotonous job. You must know that the criminal police who can enter the first section of the search are the best in the Tokyo police, but now they are ordered to do such low-level work. Many people are very dissatisfied with the special search department.

Miki is doing a small inspection now, but Lin Xiuyi takes the lead and acts as the person giving orders. This makes Miki very embarrassed, because from time to time, people at the inspection minister or even the police level will ask her for instructions. things above. But Lin Xiuyi was hiding in the office and refused to come out, so what could Miki do?

One of the two units that Lin Xiuyi asked to investigate, Mori Village Middle School, happened to be in class when the crime happened, so many teachers were able to provide alibi. But teachers and school staff who were not in class at the time of the incident were not so lucky. Especially the school administrators, many of them have independent offices, so they can't prove where they are at the time of the incident.

As for the other unit, Surugajuku, the situation is even less optimistic. Because the police took away Sousuke Tomosaka, a teacher who worked at Suruga Juku, a few days ago, they also closed down this extracurricular tutoring institution. Therefore, most of the teachers were unemployed at the time of the incident. Providing an alibi is not too difficult for teachers who live with family in Tokyo, but it is a little more difficult for teachers who live alone.

But even so, with the efforts of a large number of police officers in the search section, the interrogation process lasted for more than three hours, and about seventy suspects were excluded, which finally gave Miki some hope.

But what made Miki angry was that when he returned to the Special Search Department to ask Lin Xiuyi for instructions after taking the results of the whole search class for an afternoon, he saw Lin Xiuyi sitting leisurely on the desk. Poker Tower, and it has been stacked to the height of the fourth floor.

"The police department, it's this time, why do you still have the heart to do such a boring thing here!"

Facing his superiors~lightnovelpub.net~ is also a senior whom he admires. Lin Xiuyi's performance today could not satisfy Miki no matter what. She really didn't understand what Lin Xiuyi was thinking.

"I've finished what I told you? Tell me, how many suspects are left..."

Lin Xiu still held playing cards in one hand and continued to build a poker tower by himself, without any intention of checking the documents in Miki's hand.

"There are still 30 left, what are we going to do next, continue to interrogate these suspects?"

Seeing that Lin Xiuyi finally started to ask about the case, Miki couldn't help but wonder what Lin Xiuyi would do next.

"Let everyone write down their address and contact information, and then tell them to leave. After all, the Metropolitan Police Department's budget is not large, so many people have dinner... Counselor Zhongyuan should not agree!"

"Ah~~~!"

Miki's jaw dropped in surprise.
