Yin Dahang put his hands on his waist. He looked at the body on the bed, then at the two classmates in front of him and asked:

"What should we do with Matsuoka's body? Should we notify the victim's family directly? Or... should we try to conceal her death without disturbing those guys?"

"We know too little about the guy hiding behind this, so let's not leak the information for now." Fujiwara Yu also wanted the family to come and claim the body, but it was not difficult to see from the diary that Matsuoka Chie always maintained an optimistic and cheerful side in front of her family, so that her family knew nothing about her experience.

If they were to learn about their daughter's death and what happened to her at this time, they probably wouldn't be able to hold on.

Matsuda Jinpei frowned and thought for a long time but couldn't find a better solution. He rejected it:

"The family has the right to know the truth. I think we should tell them the news. As for the contents of the diary, let's keep it secret for now. Squad leader, I leave this matter to you."

"Hey? Why me?" Yin Dahang was stunned. He didn't think this was a good job.

Matsuda Jinpei pointed his finger at a certain Fujiwara Yuu who looked expressionless and not like a good person, then pointed at his own ugly face and said with a forced smile:

"Squad leader, you know Fuji and I aren't good with words. If we don't handle this properly, things will get out of hand, and if they get out of hand, the news will reach the ears of those rubbish. You don't want to alert them, do you?"

"Okay, okay, leave this to me. As for the investigation... that's not right. Matsuda, how can you, a member of the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team, be mixed up with our Investigation Division? You'd better hurry back to the Metropolitan Police Department."

Matsuda Jinpei took a big step back, his hands in his pockets, his expression somewhat arrogant:

"No, today is my day off. Besides, this case has something to do with me, right, Fuji?"

Fujiwara Yu knew that Matsuda Jinpei would not give up. This case was of great significance to them. It was the first time they had come into contact with such a vicious criminal during their time in the police academy.

If you don't participate until the end, you will definitely regret it.

"Brother Hang, if he wants to work overtime, just let him. I'll leave the victim's family to you."

"Alright." Yin Dahang stepped back as he walked out the door. He glared at them with his crescent eyes and warned them, "You two are grown-ups now, so don't act like you did back then."

"Don't worry, we are no longer police academy students."

After Yin Dahang left, Fujiwara Yu was about to check if there was any other useful information in the house, but he found Matsuda Jinpei staring at him with a strange expression. He asked in confusion:

"Is there something on my face?"

"No, I was just wondering when you called the squad leader 'Hang-ge'. I'm older than you, so why do you always call me 'Matsuda'?"

"...We'll talk about it when you look older."

"Hey, Fuji, you wanna fight me?!"

"Call me Yingsi, I'm the police captain now."

Matsuda Jinpei rolled his eyes speechlessly. He turned his back and began rummaging through the drawers, but the corners of his mouth curled up after the bickering. He didn't really care about the address because he wanted to lighten the tense atmosphere, so that he could focus on the case without any negative emotions.

In the explosive ordnance disposal team, he was always responsible for fighting wits and courage with the bombs made by the criminals. It had been a long time since he had dueled with the guy hiding behind the bomb.

He carefully searched the victim's handbag. There were a few banknotes and coins in the cute Hello Kitty wallet, but nothing special.

"Um?"

After finding the second handbag, I discovered that there was a Hello Kitty wallet of a different style inside. It was stuffed bulging with money. It seemed that this was the wallet she usually used.

A few hundred thousand yen worth of banknotes, a driver's license, an omikuji with the word "good luck" written on it, and a Suica card.

Matsuda Jinpei wasn't interested in anything else, but the Suica card was very helpful to their investigation. He stood up and looked at Fujiwara Yuu who was still rummaging through the boxes and drawers, and said:

"Fu...Takashi, here's a Sucia card. Matsuoka always uses the subway when she travels, so we should be able to find out where she's been. Should we go to a nearby subway station and retrieve her spending details?"

Thinking of Fujiwara Yu's identity, he chose to change his words to this unfamiliar name.

"Well, let's go."

"Can't you just call someone to take care of the body?"

"I have just sent an email to my subordinates, and they will arrange someone to handle it." Fujiwara Yu bent down to tidy up Matsuoka Chie's clothes and hairstyle, and then followed Matsuda Jinpei away.

Chie Matsuoka's death could not be concealed for long. Fujiwara Yu did not find any useful call records when checking his mobile phone, but he still carried it with him just in case. If the group of guys couldn't find Matsuoka, they might call her.

The two rushed to a nearby subway station and, after showing their police credentials, easily investigated the details of Chie Matsuoka's Suica card purchases at the information desk. Excluding the route to her part-time job at the convenience store and the route home to visit her parents, the remaining route was extremely suspicious.

Odakyu Nishitama Center Subway Station.

Whether it is the convenience store where she works, her parents' home, or the apartment building she rents, these three places are all in Fuchu City. Why does Chie Matsuoka travel back and forth to Nishitama City so many times?

"Mr. Officers, is there anything else we can help you with?" the front desk clerk asked in a low voice.
