Detectives of Detective World

Nagano Prefecture.

This place is located in the middle of Honshu Island. It can be said that it is the central highland sandwiched between Kanto and Kansai. It is known as the "Neon Roof".

It can be said that this nickname vividly expresses the landform characteristics of the place.

The so-called "ridge" is the intersection line at the top of the roof's opposite slopes or opposite sides.

If Kanto and Kansai are compared to the slopes on both sides of the roof, then Nagano Prefecture is the highland of the prefecture where they meet.

Because Nagano Prefecture is an agricultural county with few neon lights, Karasawa, who has a keen sense of smell, clearly felt that the air quality here was more than one level higher than that in Tokyo when he got off the station.

"Ah~ I didn't expect that I would also have a day to travel at official expense~"

After getting off the car, Koshimizu Nanatsuki stretched his body, which was stiff after sitting for a long time, and looked at the surrounding scenery with excitement: "It's great. I haven't been to Nagano Prefecture yet. I must take a stroll~ "

"I didn't bring you here just for fun." Tang Ze said speechlessly: "Don't forget, we are here on a business trip to handle a case."

"I know, I know~"

Koshizui Nanatsuki nodded honestly after hearing Karasawa's words, and then he chuckled and said, "But I'm very grateful to you, senior, for saving me from the criminal school~

Ah, it's so boring there. Every day is about studying and training. I hate that kind of unchanging life.

If you hadn't brought me out, senior, I would have really gone crazy in there. "

"Don't exaggerate. Every criminal in the Metropolitan Police Department comes here like this, and I don't see anyone going crazy."

Karasawa rolled his eyes, and his body trembled unconsciously when he heard Koshizui Nanatsuki's name. He felt a little uncomfortable for some reason: "Why do you start calling me senpai too? It feels weird."

"Huh? Is there any?"

Koshizui Nanatsuki tilted his head: "But when you enter the workplace, aren't these honorifics taken for granted?

And you are indeed my senior and a direct commander, but calling you "Karasawa Police Officer" is not too unfamiliar.

But if you call "Karasawa" too disrespectful, you will be gossiped about in the workplace.

I was afraid that Miss Ayako would be jealous if I called her by my first name, so after much deliberation, "senpai" would be more appropriate. "

"Alright alright."

Convinced by Koshimi Nanatsuki's series of examples, Karasawa raised his hands in surrender: "I'm just not used to my friends suddenly calling me 'senpai' or something like that, but what you said makes sense, so just get used to it."

"Hehe~"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki smiled proudly when she saw Karasawa raising his hands in surrender, but she did not continue on this topic, but changed her voice and asked: "Senior, should we go directly to the Nagano Prefecture Police Station now? Or should we find a place to rest first?"

"Let's go to the police station to check the case information first."

Tang Ze thought for a while and said: "There is no rush as to where to live. After reading the file, I will definitely visit the people involved in the case. After the interviews, we will see where to live for convenience."

"It's okay, since the weather is warm now, the only luggage I bring is a backpack, so it won't affect my movement."

Koshimi Nanatsuki nodded in agreement with Karasawa's arrangement.

The two hailed a taxi and went to the Nagano Prefectural Police Station. After identifying themselves, they were welcomed in by the local criminal police.

Of course, when they announced their identity, most of the criminals in the police station began to look at the two with scrutiny and displeasure.

Tang Ze expressed that he was used to this, and followed the female criminal who was responsible for reception to the office with a calm face.

"Here are the dossier information given by the minister."

The long-haired female criminal handed a piece of paper with her phone number written on it to the two of them and said, "The minister told me that we will try our best to cooperate with you in handling the case. If necessary, please feel free to contact me."

"Thank you, but it shouldn't be too much trouble for you."

Tangze could tell that unlike the male criminals around him who had unhappy expressions on their faces, the other person didn't look fake, but really had no objections to the two of them, and his attitude was very sincere.

It is estimated that the head of the police station also knew this, so he asked her to be responsible for receiving the two people.

"No, it won't be troublesome."

The female criminal smiled and said: "Everything is what you should do. Then you can read the files. I will take my leave now."

"Excuse me, sister." Koshizui Nanatsuki shouted sweetly, waving goodbye to the other party.

After that, the two began to look at the case they were responsible for this time.

Looking through the files, the photo revealed the first victim in the case.

Looking at the name, this Yoshiro Torada is the son of his client.

According to the forensic identification, Yoshiro Torada had multiple fractures all over his body. It seemed that he had suffered a severe impact and eventually died of excessive blood loss.

This kind of injury usually results from falling from a height, but the cause of death of Yoshiro Torada was a little different.

He was not pushed down from a high place, but was caught in a tornado and was swept into the air before falling to a rock and dying.

"Isn't this obviously an accidental death?"

After reading the forensic report, Koshizui Nanatsuki asked in surprise: "Could it be that there is other evidence that shows there is a hidden secret behind this accident?"

"You'll find out after you read it."

Tang Ze flipped through the file to the second page, which contained several photos. Unlike the ID photos on the first page, these were obviously photos of the crime scene taken by the forensic department.

In the photo, Yoshiro Torada fell in a pool of blood. There was a lot of blood on the ground, and he looked very miserable.

"Is this a centipede!?"

Both of them had extraordinary powers of observation, and they quickly saw the only incongruity in this photo.

That is, there is a centipede in the ear of the deceased.

"Could this be the reason why the client feels that his son did not die in an accident?"

Seeing this Yuesui Nanatsuki couldn't help but urge: "Senior, take a look at the detailed description of the dossier information."

"Don't worry."

Karasawa turned back the page and found a criminal description of the crime scene and the words of the deceased's family.

The centipede next to the dead body's ear was not alive but the body of a centipede that had been trampled to death.

Moreover, the centipede corpse was placed before the blood flowing from Torada Yoshiro dried up.

It is precisely because of this that the parents of the deceased felt that this was not a simple accident.

The testimony recorded that the mother of the deceased, Tatsuei Torada, felt that after someone discovered his son, not only did he not seek help, but he stood by and watched his son die, and even released a disgusting insect before leaving.

And his father Naobu Torada also felt that this was the revenge of the ruthless evil spirit who hated their Torada family.

"However, this cannot be ruled out as an accident."

Koshimizu Nanatsuki touched his chin and muttered: "After all, it was a tornado. If there were centipede corpses around that happened to be trampled to death, it would be possible for them to be swept over by the tornado and then thrown to the ground with the deceased."

"Look here, the first person to discover the deceased was Torada Shigeji, the younger brother of Yoshiro Torada."

Tang Ze clicked on a record at the bottom of the file: "He said there were no centipedes around there at all.

Above this is the criminal investigation into Torada Shigeji, saying that he is obsessed with unfounded treasures in the prefecture.

Because he often goes into the mountains and forests to dig for treasures, he is very familiar with that area. "

"In other words, he said there were no centipedes nearby, so it's very credible."

Koshizui Nanatsuki suddenly walked over to the file and asked, "Does the deceased's parents have any suspects? Someone who has a grudge against their family."

"Of course there is. The client provided four people who have enmity with their Torada family, and their basic information is also recorded in the file."

Karasawa motioned to Koshimi Nanatsuki and said, "Write down the addresses and contact information of the four of them. We will only visit and interview them one by one."

"Hey, why is there so much information at the back? Is there any other information?"

After Koshizui Nanatsuki took out a small notebook and recorded the information of the four people, he saw that there was a lot of paper under the folder in Karasawa's hand and couldn't help but flip through it.

The next moment, the new content displayed on the data made the two of them look serious.

"I didn't expect it to be a serial murder case."

Tang Ze looked at the brand new victim information and couldn't help but frown slightly, and carefully read the subsequent file.

This case also involves the Tatsuo family, another wealthy family in Nagano Prefecture.

The deceased was also the son of the Tatsuo family, Tatsuo Koji.

And unlike Yoshiro Torada's situation, which might have been an accident, the second deceased, Koji Tatsuo, was completely killed by himself.

Because Tatsuo Koji was tied up by the prisoners, then buried his body in the mound with only his head exposed, and beat him to death by hitting his head with a blunt instrument while he was still alive.

And similarly, the prisoner placed the body of a centipede on the blood of the deceased before it completely solidified, and then escaped.

These same details even provide side evidence that the first case was most likely not an accident, but a homicide.

After all, placing the centipede before the blood dries up is a detail that would not have appeared twice if it had not been intentional.

"Isn't it really interesting, "Dragon and Tiger Fight"?"

Koshimizu Nanatsuki continued to read the testimonies of everyone in the Ryuubi family, and found that the testimony of Ryuubi Moriyo, the grandmother of the Ryuubi family, was very interesting.

The old man said that the Torada family felt that the death of their son was inseparable from the Torada family, and was even caused by the Ryūbi family.

So someone from the Torada family killed his grandson Koji Tatsuo to vent his anger because he had a grudge.

Of course, the contemporary head of the Ryuwei family, Ryuwei Weishi, smiled helplessly at his mother's remarks and had no such prejudice.

The person who discovered the body of Ryuumi Koji was also Ryuumi Weishi's other son, Ajing.

The other party discovered the body of his brother on his way home from practicing horseback shooting.

"Interesting, the same centipede corpses were also discovered by my own brothers..."

Koshizui Nanatsuki saw this and expressed his opinion: "No one will believe it if it doesn't matter, right?

Is this completely a typical serial murder case? "

“What detectives hate most is making judgments in advance based on the information at hand.”

Tang Ze folded the documents and put them back in the drawer where the female criminal originally kept them. "Let's go. Is it what you said? We need to go and see the situation first."

"Which of the "Dragon" and "Tiger" families should visit first?"

Koshizui Nanatsuki said with an eager expression on his face: "How about we split up?"

"Cross the water to conduct "accurate" inspections. Don't forget that you are here for an internship and have no right to handle cases."

Tangze emphasized the word "accurate" and said with a dead look on his face: "Furthermore, dividing troops in unfamiliar areas is a taboo in mystery works and movies.

A "protagonist" like me is definitely fine, but an assistant like you, Xiao Mengxin, must have been attacked, kidnapped, or even directly eaten by criminals. "

"Why should we use the laws of the world in reasoning works as a judgment of reality!

Why do you take it for granted and regard yourself as the protagonist?

Why can I only embody the hero's wisdom and prowess, and be a poor victim who only deserves to cause chaos? "

After hearing Karasawa's words, Koshimizu Nanatsuki started to complain about the three-connect mode.

"Hey, they actually complained to the point. It's a good compliment." After hearing Koshisui Nanatsuki's three consecutive complaints, Tang Ze said with satisfaction: "Not bad, passed the test."

"What! Are you here to recruit "mancai" comedians?"

Koshimi Nanatsuki continued to complain: "And you haven't answered yet, why can I only be a supporting role!"

"Then I will tell you why I am the "protagonist" and you can only be a little transparent."

Karasawa looked at Koshizui Nanatsuki's unconvinced look and said, "Actually, it's very simple. It's just because you can't fight."

"Is it that simple?" Koshizui Nanatsuki's eyes turned into dead fish eyes, and he could see the speechless color contained in them.

"That's it. Do you think I don't know about your training performance in criminal school?"

Tang Ze spread his hands: "As a Zhan Wu Zha, you should try your best to only use your brain in the future. This is also the first lesson I will teach you.

No matter what the case is, ensuring your own life is the first priority, do you understand? "

"clear."

Although Koshizui Nanatsuki had a dark look on his face and felt a little embarrassed when he heard this, he still nodded seriously after a moment of silence.

"Well, just listen to what he said." Tang Ze said with satisfaction.

But looking at Tangze's serious appearance, Koshisui Nanatsuki was furious, but also seemed a little helpless.

After all, everything Tang Ze said was true, and he was indeed worried about her safety.

But I’m still so angry!

As a combat scumbag, Koshizui Nanatsuki felt that this wave was not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

"I'll train hard when I get back!"

Koshizui Nanatsuki gritted his teeth and said, "I'm going to beat you all over your head when the time comes!"

"I seem to have heard someone's whimsical thoughts." Tang Ze said with a strange look on his face: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"Why, I know you are powerful, but don't underestimate me!"

Koshizui Nanatsuki was unconvinced and said: "Even if I am a girl who is inherently disadvantaged, it is not impossible to win against you, right?"

"As long as you are happy, let's go and visit the Torada family first."

Karasawa felt that Koshimi Nanatsuki might not have a clear understanding of his own force value, so he said this.

However, Karasawa was too lazy to argue with the other party, so he decisively skipped the topic and walked towards Torada's house.
