The Grammatical Investigator in Conan

Brooklyn is the most populous borough in New York and the largest among the five boroughs in New York.

Because there are areas where blacks and other ethnic minorities gather in Brooklyn, the crime rate remains high. All kinds of racism and racial discrimination make it the most dirty, chaotic, and sinful place in New York.

But in 1996, New York City was vigorously improving public security, especially in Brooklyn, which made the overall living conditions of Brooklyn stable and improving.

In contrast, Tokyo, which is also an international metropolis, is stable but declining, and the crime rate in Mihua Town has soared.

As for the reasons, everyone knows.

In Brooklyn today, except for the fact that the black community is still full of poverty and backwardness, the living standards in other parts of the area are basically not much different from those in developed areas of New York.

Hondo Yingyou currently lives in an ordinary neighborhood in Brooklyn.

…

Following the address given by Patrick, Qin Zhibo came to the address where our hall Yingyou currently lives.

It is located in a quiet residential area. Every household in the residential area has a highly consistent architectural style, and they are all neat two-story buildings.

The small courtyard in front of the building is a green lawn with no vegetables or fences.

It's just that the place where Yingyou lives looks a little poorer than the surrounding neighbors. The lawn has not been taken care of for a long time and is covered with weeds.

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi walked through the path that was almost submerged in weeds, came to the door of the house, and pressed the doorbell.

However, the bell that was supposed to make a sound did not make any sound. It looked like it was broken.

Qin Zhibo thought to himself: The people who lived here were really slovenly. They didn't mow the lawn or replace the doorbell if it broke.

From this, Qin Zhibo can basically judge that there is no male master in this family.

In the United States, as long as the male owner is not a man who is bored with things, he will take the initiative to repair his own lawn, and even enjoy it endlessly, forming a trend of comparison with each other.

Because mowing the lawn is the prerogative of the male head of the family. The better the mowing is, it means that the male master is well-managed. Even if he does not mow the lawn himself, he will pay someone to mow it.

Correspondingly, if Lao Wang next door is mowing the lawn without the consent of the male owner, the conflict will be huge.

The doorbell didn't work, so Qin Zhibo knocked on the door again.

Dude, dunk, dunk.

Dude, dunk, dunk.

Snap, snap, snap.

He changed from knocking on the door to banging on the door, but there was still no response from behind the door.

Koizumi Hongzi: "Aren't you at home?"

"Um……"

Qin Zhibo checked the time of the news broadcast before going out. Today is Saturday, and I think Yingyou did not go to school.

The two returned to the path covered by weeds and looked around. Qin Zhibo decided to call Yingyou.

I didn't call Bentang Yingyou in advance because I wanted to give him a surprise, but now it seems a bit unnecessary.

But just as Qin Zhibo took out his phone, he suddenly felt a line of sight behind him observing him.

He turned back suddenly and looked directly at the row of windows on the second floor.

One of the four windows had thick dark gray curtains drawn, but Qin Zhibo did see it the moment he turned back.

The edge of the curtain at that window was shaking.

There is someone at home...

"What's wrong?" Koizumi Hongzi asked.

"There is someone at home." Qin Zhibo replied.

"Yeah?"

At Qin Zhibo's reminder, Koizumi Hongzi closed her eyes and tried to sense it with her sixth sense, and her intuition told her that there was indeed someone inside.

"But why didn't he open the door?"

Qin Zhibo casually guessed: "Maybe we came here suddenly and thought we were some suspicious people..."

At this moment, a middle-aged man walking his dog passed by on the street and said hello to Qin Zhibo.

"Hello?"

"Hello~"

The middle-aged man grabbed his beagle, stopped and asked, "Are you here to see this family?"

Qin Zhibo looked back at the house behind him, nodded and replied: "Yes, do you know the situation of this family?"

The middle-aged man hesitated and said, "I'm not sure. People here rarely show up."

"But there are often people in suits and ties who come to the people living here and deliver a lot of food and daily necessities. Occasionally they will take the person out and let her sit in their car and go somewhere..."

As he spoke, the middle-aged man approached Qin Zhibo pretending to be mysterious and asked in a low voice: "Are you a policeman? Are you here to investigate this family?"

Qin Zhibo was a little startled. He had to say that this middle-aged man was quite accurate in judging people. Although he was not a policeman at the moment, he was better than a policeman.

The middle-aged man denied it when the man in front of him denied it, showing a proud expression, "That's right, I rarely make mistakes when I look at people."

"According to my observation, the person living in this house is a prostitute..."

"Secret prostitute?" Qin Zhibo was surprised.

The law and order movement in Brooklyn has just begun, and many of the previously popular cultural dregs have not been completely abandoned, and are even turning from light to light.

In the eyes of this middle-aged man, he doesn't have to go to work every day, and strangers often come to give him food, and he stays in that dark room for an hour or half an hour.

This is not a flesh and blood business, so what else can we do?

Therefore, the middle-aged man suspected that Qin Zhibo, the "policeman", was sent by the superiors to make an undercover investigation.

"Let me tell you, an Asian pretty boy recently lived in that house. Maybe the older one is making money to take care of the younger one..."

Suddenly, the middle-aged man's gaze shifted. He seemed to see something in his eyes and immediately stopped talking.

"Here he is."

"Officer, you must investigate carefully and make this community clean..."

After saying that, the middle-aged man took the beagle and left.

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi looked in the direction indicated by the middle-aged man, and it turned out that it was our hall Yingyou who had returned from outside.

At this moment, Qin Zhibo didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

It turns out you are the little one who was kept...

Our hall Yingyou was carrying two large bags of things, and he happened to bump into the two people standing on the path.

"Mr. Qin!"

"Anko-san!"

Qin Zhibo looked through the opening of the black plastic bag and saw some tools inside, such as weeding shears, screwdrivers, and work gloves.

"Why are you here suddenly!"

Hondo Yingyu's face was full of surprise, and he excitedly stepped forward to give the two of them a hug, but Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi reached out to stop them at the same time.

"Wait a minute! Put down the tools in your hands first."

When Hondo Yingyou looked at the things bought by his left and right hands, he felt embarrassed and quickly put the things on the ground, otherwise some unexpected harm would occur.

"By the way, have you finished what you have to do?" After the hug, I asked Yingyou.

Before they parted ways in New York, Qin Zhibo told him that he and Koizumi Hongzi had to do other things in the United States. The details of the matter were not told to Hondo Eyou.

"That's right..." Qin Zhibo smiled and said his next plan, "We will take a break in New York for a while, and then return to Japan after a while, so I wanted to see how you are doing here before leaving. In this way, I will have a chance to explain to your sister when I go back..."

Our hall Yingyou does not have the contact information of Sui Wu Reina. In order to ensure safety, Qin Zhibo is still the only contact person of Sui Wu Reina.

When Yingyou heard Qin Zhibo mention his sister, he immediately made a very happy expression, "I'm living a good life here. The host of the boarding house has accepted me, and the neighbors are also very friendly..."

"Friendly? I don't think so..." Koizumi Hongzi said this in a nonchalant manner, obviously revealing that people nearby had been gossiping about this family.

Hearing this, Bentang Yingyou smiled slightly bitterly.

In fact, on the way here, he had already seen what the neighbor walking his dog nearby was saying to Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi.

Although he couldn't hear the specific content, he knew it must be something bad.

The reason is that the reputation of the family he is staying with in the neighborhood is not very good.

On the second day after he moved in, he felt the disapproving eyes of the people around him when he greeted the neighbors.

"You must have heard something, but I can guarantee that he is definitely a good person who lives here."

After saying that, Bentang Yingyou went to open the door.

…

There was a strong smell of air freshener in the room.

There are black garbage bags everywhere inside, and these air fresheners are used to seal these smells.

"Sorry, I'm currently cleaning the house and the trash bags will be thrown out later."

It's been a few days since we moved in, and it hasn't been completely cleaned yet, which shows how dirty this place was before.

Hondo Yingyu placed the newly bought things on the table and poured water for the two of them skillfully.

The two sat on the first floor for a while, and then Yingyou stood in front of the stairs on the second floor and asked, "Let's take you to meet Miss Nancy. She lives on the second floor."

Qin Zhibo and Koizumi Hongzi glanced at each other, which confirmed their suspicion that there was indeed someone at home.

The three of them came to the second floor, and Yingyou, the main hall, stood in front and knocked on the door.

"Miss Nancy, my friend in Japan wants to visit you."

"Is it convenient for you now?"

There was some movement in the room, like the sound of something falling to the ground.

Click...

It was the slight sound of the door lock being opened slightly, but the door did not open immediately.

After waiting for a while, a female voice came from inside.

"Come in, the door is unlocked."

Qin Zhibo: "..." Of course it's not locked, because you just opened it.

The main hall Yingyou pushed open the door and entered, the room was dimly lit.

Wherever the light shines, you can see many thick books, and some notebooks with many pages mixed in them. Ball pens with unfolded nibs are still beside them.

On the display rack next to the table, there are some eye-catching models, all of which are spacecraft models, the most famous of which is the Enterprise from "Star Trek".

And on the sofa in the innermost part of the light, there was a woman in pajamas sitting.

The woman has a pair of blue eyes, messy blond hair leaking from the side of her pajama hat, and has a typical Nordic appearance.

Qin Zhibo was a little surprised when he saw this woman.

Because she is younger than expected, more beautiful and charming than expected, no wonder the neighbors suspect that she is a prostitute.

If it were placed in a future where the Internet is developed, the neighbors would have reason to suspect that she is an anchor.

Qin Zhibo glanced at the identity information above her head: Nancy, 24 years old, unemployed, social credit 700.

Obviously, this is not correct information.

The Nancy that Patrick mentioned yesterday was just a code name. This person is also a member of the Green Delta, and his identity must be hidden.

"Hello, we are Yingyou's friends. We came to visit unexpectedly. I hope we didn't disturb you."

"My name is Vince Qin, and her name is Koizumi Hongzi."

Qin Zhibo said, and walked over and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Nancy.

Nancy looked at the hand Qin Zhibo handed over and hesitated for several seconds before hesitantly stretched out his hand.

The moment the two shook hands, Qin Zhibo immediately started an investigation.

【Survey√】

Name: Joan Qualls

Gender: Female

Age: 41 years old

Occupation: FBI Special Counsel

social credit…

The investigation came to an abrupt end because Nancy had withdrawn her hand.

Her skin is so delicate that it slips away as soon as the skin is loosened a little.

But even so, the information emerging from these investigations gave Qin Zhibo a great shock.

41 years old?

Not 24 years old?

Whether judged by the naked eye or the information that appears above her head, her age is 24 years old.

Why did the age change to 41 when the contact investigation came?

A person like this, apart from shrinks like Conan, is Dr. Herbert from Arkham Asylum.

What is her situation?

Qin Zhibo calmly put away his surprise and sat on the chair moved by his hall Yingyou.

"Are you the famous detective we often mention?" Nancy said.

"I used to work in psychological profiling for the FBI. Only when I encountered a case that even the FBI agents couldn't solve, would it be my turn to appear."

There is something in Nancy's words that implies that "her psychological profiling is more advanced than ordinary case investigation."

In response, Qin Zhibo was not angry and responded with a smile: "You are right, but the two are not essentially the same case detection techniques."

"The work of a detective is mainly to find evidence, identify techniques, and analyze the murderer's motive from an absolutely rational perspective."

"Although psychological profiling also has scientific basis, it often cannot play a decisive role. It is only a method to assist detectives in handling cases, so the priority must be behind detective work."

"Furthermore, judging from the murder cases I handled in Japan, inferring the murderer solely by relying on the murderer's psychology and motivations often leads to wrong answers."

"Can you imagine a professor being killed by his own students just because he reminded them not to pretend to be themselves and to have more confidence in themselves?"

"Or can you imagine that a victim would invite three or more enemies with murderous motives to attend his banquet at the same time? It turns out that the person with the least motive on the surface is the murderer..."

"Can you imagine that almost all cases occur in a limited space, and the suspects are locked in a limited number of three people?"

"Or can you imagine someone who everyone could tell was the murderer, but who couldn't get the police to arrest him because they couldn't find direct evidence?"

"These are all things I encountered in actual cases. If you use psychological profiling in these cases, you will only get a mess. In the end, the suspect will be let go because no direct evidence can be found."

After listening to Qin Zhibo's words, Nancy was stunned.

She couldn't imagine what the man in front of her had experienced in Japan over the years.

Am I in Brooklyn, or are you in Brooklyn?
