"Satoshi Maeda, researcher at the Institute of Electronic Engineering, Jonan University."
"In addition, there's Professor Watanabe Shiroya, who couldn't make it and transferred his spot. Computers are always heavily used in these academic circles."
"The rest of the people are all relatives and friends of these individuals."
"I think I remember these details correctly, right?"
Watching Detective Yokomizo being rendered speechless by Akechi's fully activated AT field, Yoruichi Toyama, who was watching the show from the sidelines, couldn't help but chuckle to herself for a long time.
Then he added, "There's another one, Shiro Konno, who also came alone, but he's just an ordinary bank employee, which doesn't seem to fit the description."
What sounded like a way to defuse the situation at first, however, left Detective Yokomizo speechless after careful consideration.
Did you two have chips implanted in your brains? You memorized so many names and professions after hearing them only once? ...
Frustrated, I was also curious to see how this assertive and wise vigilant would explain the exception to his conclusion.
However, Akechi showed no sign of being undermined. Instead, he looked at Yoruichi Toyama seriously and pondered for a moment.
"Bank employees...use computers for work on a daily basis, and they also have the opportunity to be exposed to advanced programming operations..."
"Officer Yokomizo!"
Yokomizo, who was called out, had no choice but to stand at attention and agree.
"Go and investigate Shiro Konno's work situation again, especially what level of operation he is involved in. Maybe we can find commonalities with other people... Thanks for your hard work."

"detective?"
This time, Detective Yokomizo's attempt to control his expression finally failed. He looked at Yoruichi Toyama with his jaw dropping in astonishment, then turned to look at Akechi.
It's as if they're saying, "I've seen double standards before, but I've never seen such double standards."
I just happened to run into a detective, a famous detective who's been on TV, and asked him to be an outside helper to improve the efficiency of my investigations. And you're giving us low-level criminal police a hard time.
So, you, a high-ranking inspector of this police station, also have a detective with you?
Having read his expression, Mingzhi smiled faintly.
"Mr. Toyama is a special advisor hired by the First Investigation Division of the Criminal Investigation Department of this agency, and has the authority to conduct any investigative activities in the presence of criminal police officers."
What? ……
Not only Detective Yokomizo, but even Yoruichi Toyama was momentarily stunned.
Then he realized that he had created this identity for himself when applying for funding.
This person is really... willful...
“Alright, please take us to where the bodies are kept,” Mingzhi said, completely ignoring the two men’s thoughts.
Detective Yokomizo sighed resignedly.
