Chapter 477: Matsuda suddenly disappears

Chapter 477: Matsuda suddenly disappears

But Jinpei Matsuda did not follow the script.

——When Officer Sato stood under the Ferris wheel and anxiously inquired about the situation, he learned that this pseudo-newbie who had been with him for six days decided to stop defusing the bomb and check the location of the next bomb.

The bomb countdown was over quickly, and cabin 72 of the Ferris wheel exploded into a ball of charred smoke.

Almost at the same time, Sato Miwako received a text message on her mobile phone - it was the location of the "huge bomb" sent by Matsuda Jinpei in the last few seconds.

In addition, I don’t know if it was to relieve his nervousness, to comfort his colleagues, or because his typing speed was too fast and he felt uncomfortable if he didn’t type something, but Jinpei Matsuda also added a PS: I like you very much.

...From then on, the name "Jinpei Matsuda", like Masayoshi Sato and other people who were closely related to Miwako Sato but died suddenly, became an unforgettable scar in Officer Sato's heart.

Just now, when the arsonist by the river detonated the bomb, Sato Miwako always felt that she heard a snap of fingers.

Just the next moment after the snap of fingers, the bomb suddenly exploded, and the scene became chaotic. Officer Sato had no time to observe who suddenly ran to such a place and snapped his fingers.

After the explosion was over and she called the fire department and the explosive ordnance disposal team, Miwako Sato turned her attention to the crowd, considering that such a scene could easily cause a stampede.

She helped a few people and evacuated them. She turned back inadvertently and caught a glimpse of a figure leaving in the crowd - black suit, curly hair, sunglasses, and for some reason, a figure that seemed familiar. A name that had been lurking in her mind for three years instantly emerged in her mind - Jinpei Matsuda!

When I came to my senses, Sato Miwako had already caught up with him.

However, when they chased them to a small house and opened the door, there was no one inside.

Miwako Sato leaned against the door frame, staring at the narrow guard room in a daze for a while. She couldn't be sure whether she really saw that person just now, or it was an illusion due to overwork.

She hesitated for a moment, illegally entered the room and took a look around, then quietly retreated, raising her hand to press her forehead.

Maybe she saw it wrong.

There's no way Jinpei Matsuda is still alive.

...Perhaps it was because she passed by the Ferris wheel when she was chasing the arsonist just now, and the "Chou Silang Incident" evoked many memories for her, so she was misled by her consciousness and saw it wrong.

When Jiang Xia opened his eyes again, he had returned to his original form.

He glanced at the cabin in the woods from the corner of his eye, and quickly looked away as if nothing had happened.

At this time, the mermaid and Miss Spider had already carried their harvest back to their main body.

While waiting for Jiang Xia to come back, they and Miyano Akemi were bored and rolled up their murderous aura into ropes and tied a few flower knots.

Jiang Xia picked up the murderous aura and the shikigami, shook them out and put them away, then began to plan what to do next.

——There is no decent mirror around, so I haven’t had time to see what the new vest looks like... I’ll try it on when I get home.

In addition, before that, we must first go to the site where Hagiwara Kenji died - after thinking about it, Jiang Xia still misses the good brother of the new ghost. Whether you can pick it up or not is another matter, at least you have to be brave enough to try, what if you find it really exists after you go there...

Thinking of this, Jiang Xia turned around and glanced at the new ghost.

I saw Jinpei Matsuda staring at the two charred corpses, not knowing what he was thinking.

Jiang Xia observed it briefly and seemed to be thinking about something.

——After all, Matsuda Jinpei was a policeman in his lifetime, and for him, throwing criminals into prison was a routine operation. Now, he probably didn't expect that what Jiang Xia said about "making the criminals pay the price" would be this kind of price, so his views as a human and a ghost conflicted, and he was entangled for a while.

Jiang Xia looked at it for a while, then looked away. Taking advantage of the chaos and no one paying attention to his actions, he picked up Miyano Akemi and Kiri Tengu and threw them next to Matsuda Jinpei, letting the more Buddhist ghosts comfort this unique new ghost.

It shouldn't be a big problem. After all, there are big differences in thinking between life and death, between being a human and being a ghost. Now that he is a ghost, Matsuda Jinpei will gradually get used to looking at things from a ghost's perspective, just like Miyano Akemi, who was afraid of Gin when she was alive, now happily pounces on Gin as soon as she sees him.

And Jinpei Matsuda doesn't seem to be the kind of person who sticks to the rules too much. When he was young, his father was detained as a murder suspect and missed an important boxing match. Since then, Matsuda's father has been drinking all day and has never recovered... This led to the young Jinpei Matsuda's simple desire to "beat up the Superintendent of Police", and he entered the police academy and became a policeman.

...Even Sato Miwako, who comes from a family of police officers, could shoot a criminal. Now the ghost version of Matsuda Jinpei is just watching the psychic test his skills. He shouldn't be so anxious as to pack up and run away overnight. Of course, the contract has been signed, so it can't actually run away...

Next to him, Matsuda Jinpei, who was thinking about the life of a ghost, suddenly sneezed. He rubbed his face in confusion, as if he was thinking about why ghosts would also have such symptoms. His thoughts were temporarily distracted, and his expression did not seem so entangled.

At this moment, Gao Mushi suddenly cried out from a few meters away: "Inspector! Look..."

Jinpei Matsuda seemed to be attracted by the title "Inspector" and turned to look over.

Miwako Sato had just returned from the guard hut. When she heard her colleague's scream, she forced herself to jog over.

Jiang Xia followed and mixed in with the police. The four of them formed a circle and looked down.

When the arsonist's bomb exploded just now, the hostage's bag was also blown away.

After discovering this, Takagi Shigeru ran over to collect the hostages' belongings, trying to find documents that could confirm the hostages' identities so that he could notify their families.

But when he counted the slightly deformed items in the bag, he felt something was wrong.

"Knife, hemp rope, tape, cloth, anesthetic, glass cutter..." Sato Miwako looked at them one by one, and her face changed. Putting these things together, it didn't look like they were going to do anything good.

"There is also a USB flash drive here." A voice suddenly interrupted from the side.

Inspector Megure was startled, and looking in the direction of the voice, he found that it was his active-duty brother who suddenly appeared—

Jiang Xia pointed to a wallet in the travel bag. It might have been blocked by the stacked tools during the explosion, so it was not burned. At this time, a pile of coins and a USB flash drive slipped out of the bag.

Jiang Xia twisted his chin and said, "Based on my experience, some prisoners have the habit of writing 'crime plans'. If you care about these tools..."

Mumu Police Department: "..."

Experience tells him that Brother Jiang Xia's intuition has always been very accurate.

...And if the deceased really intended to commit a crime and he had living accomplices, then now, the police can take a look at the information in the USB drive and know the deceased's target, and perhaps they can prevent a murder case that is still in the bud.

But if they were wrong, they would secretly look through the hostages' belongings before their families arrived...

Just as I was struggling, a hand reached out from the side.

——Jiang Xia didn't know when he put on gloves. He picked up the USB flash drive through his gloves, looked at it for a few seconds, and suddenly threw it to the empty space behind him.
