Roadside Murder Case Solved
"The murderer is Manza Kairin."
This person is the child of the deceased's financial sponsor.
"How is that possible? She has an alibi, and what motive could she have? She wasn't even familiar with the deceased, was she? Why would she be so desperate to kill someone so insignificant in her prime?"
"Huh? But her mother had a stroke on the dead body." Xiao Ming smiled obscenely, ruining his refreshing temperament.
"Vengeance." Kato said.
Tanaka hesitated. "Is it, is it the structure, Inspector Kato? We don't seem to have any information on this?"
"Don't air your dirty laundry in public," Kato advised.
Xiao Ming held the back of his head with his hands. "Who would let others know about such a shameful death? With Manza's wealth and power, it would be easy to erase this part! Haha!"
"You, what are you laughing at!" Tanaka clenched his fists, gritting his teeth to suppress his laughter. "So, what's the technique?"
Xiao Ming tilted his head and looked at Kato.
"Ah..." Kato held his forehead, "You should ask the cause of death."
"Anatomy, it's anatomy." Xiao Ming shook his index finger to emphasize.
"But, the cause of death was poison..." Tanaka Saki was bewildered.
"Mr. Tanaka, your brain is all messed up with natto." Xiao Ming kicked the stones on the side of the road.
"Natto is innocent anyway!" Natto enthusiast Tanaka retorted, "No, how can you call me stupid!"
Xiao Ming deliberately made an exaggerated surprised expression: "So you can understand."
"Stop making such a fuss. Ms. Kurahashi, please continue." Kato manually distanced the two of them.
"Manza bribed forensic pathologist Shizukawa Hiiragi. She used the threat of the forensic pathologist's sister and offered her enormous benefits, promising her sister a promising future. Don't ask how she created such a promising future. Forensic pathologist Hiiragi was tempted. Her career advancement prospects were limited, and the deceased was her ex-lover, whose breakup wasn't a happy one. So, without much hesitation, Shizukawa Hiiragi agreed to assist in the crime."
"The deceased was put into a state of suspended animation by a special homemade poison. The forensic doctor made a few tampering moves to conceal the true cause of death."
"Really? It's not often that you find such a suitable accomplice and scapegoat."
Xiao Ming narrated the entire process of the case and the chain of evidence in one breath. It was so good that it felt like he was reading a script, and he concluded with a light and airy feeling.
Tanaka was incredulous. "Sister Jing? How is that possible? She's so kind..."
"She's probably just being nice to you because she sees you thinking of her sister. You're taking advantage of your youth."
Xiao Ming, who had just finished making sarcastic remarks, said seriously, "I'm telling you, Mr. Tanaka, do you really have the determination to be a good police officer?"
"Huh? Of course!"
"But you had a premonition, didn't you? But not only did you not mention it, you even avoided the issue. You haven't even achieved anything yet, and you're already bending the law for personal gain?"
"……I won't!"
Tanaka's words were interrupted by Kato who had captured Forensic Doctor Hiiragi.
Kato said to Xiao Ming: "You are right."
Tanaka stared at Hiiragi in a daze: "Sister Jing, why are you doing this?"
Hiiragi Shizukawa ignored everyone.
"By the way, she is a necrophiliac. I guess the breakup was related to this, haha!" Xiao Ming revealed again.
"...I just have a pure admiration for corpses. How could I possibly cheat? That guy is just being unreasonable. But, he looks really sexy after he died." Hiiragi laughed grimly.
"What a shame! Your hopes are dashed. Are you turning to a murder of passion? I know the mastermind is Manza, and your sister's future is ruined too."
"...!" Hiiragi reacted, cursing in surprise, "What? You damned detective! You're a ruthless demon who only cares about your own pleasure and exposes everything! My sister, she's a good child! What I did has nothing to do with her! You guys are always righteous, so just be nice..."
The voice of the forensic doctor who was being tortured faded away.
Tanaka was frustrated: "Ah... Miss Jing has become a Miss Jing I don't recognize..."
Xiao Ming patted her shoulder and said, "Is it possible that you don't understand her at all?"
"How can anyone comfort someone like you?"
"I didn't say anything to comfort you."
Kato stopped the two from laughing: "Alright."
It’s time to catch the mastermind.
Tanaka, who did not participate in the arrest last time because of Kato's consideration, joined the operation this time and was very successful. It was better to say that the murderer was completely unprepared.
Wan Zuo is a woman with plain features, but a beautiful appearance. When she is not smiling, her expression is like ice, revealing a sharp chill.
"Ming...? I thought you wouldn't tell anyone about me." Her pronunciation was ambiguous, and she gave a superficial smile.
Xiao Ming chuckled: "Stop talking nonsense! Be careful or I'll tell you your secret."
"..." Wanzuo was silent, lowering his head as if thinking.
"Are you acquaintances?" Tanaka was surprised.
Xiao Ming denied the connection: "No, we're not familiar. We've just been in the same school, in the same class, and sat at the same table."
"Isn't that just childhood friendliness?"
"vomit."
"...I'm so sorry for making you feel so disgusted!"
After the case was over, they were all dealing with the follow-up. Tanaka, who was busy with his work, was organizing the information and communicating with Xiao Ming.
"Um, the secret you mentioned..." Tanaka, who was trying to figure out someone else's secret, smiled shyly.
Xiao Ming blurted out, "Oh, it's just her dark history of wetting the bed at the age of twelve. She's a very proud person, so she can't tell you."
"I thought you wouldn't tell me?" Tanaka was actually a little flattered...
Xiao Ming smiled and said, "I didn't say I wouldn't tell on her if she left."
"Why do you know everything?"
While Xiao Ming was in a good mood, Tanaka asked a curious question: was it reasoning ability or intelligence network?
"After all, I'm the famous detective Xiao Ming!" She made a scissors gesture at the corner of her eyes.
"'Chan', what are you trying to do to be cute?" Tanaka was disillusioned when his guess was broken.
After leaving the office, Tanaka asked Xiao Ming: "Kurahashi..."
Xiao Ming put one hand in his pocket and said, "Just call me by my name."
"Ah, Ming, this case is all thanks to you. Can I treat you to a meal?"
"Yeah." Xiao Ming took out a cigarette from his pocket.
Tanaka thought it was a lollipop and didn't pay much attention to it until he saw what she was holding.
She was horrified: "Minors are not allowed to smoke!"
"Huh? I'm an adult now."
Xiao Ming anticipated Tanaka's reaction and threw an ID card into her hand.
"Thirty-two years old... is that true?! He's older than me!"
"Ah, I really need a cigarette after the case."
Xiao Ming doesn't smoke in real life. The anti-smoking campaign is implemented very thoroughly, and almost no one among the younger generation smokes. But it's okay to have one in the game, which is enough to relieve stress. Anyway, he won't smell the bad smell.
Tanaka's blank expression remained until Xiao Ming finished his meal and said goodbye to Kato and her.
"Wow—" The whistle blew, and an animal landed on her outstretched left arm.
"Where did this bird come from... an owl?!"
“Gu!”
Xiao Ming has an owl named Xiao Ya.
The species is eagle owl.
"Yes, Crow is my best partner!"
"Don't change your words all of a sudden!"
"Tsk." Kato laughed, "About the case..."
“Gu—!”
"Hey, little crow, that's not your snack!"
A dead body had just been brought in outside, and the little crow flew over.
The little crow flew back.
"Are you really just eating carrion like a crow?" Tanaka said with shame, "Is your partner reliable?"
Kato looked at Tanaka.
"Inspector Kato, I'm not talking about you!"
Xiao Ming stroked the little crow's feathers and said, "Owls also eat carrion, so it's okay."
"Don't mix different species together." Kato said.
"That's right," Tanaka agreed, "but aren't owls nocturnal?"
"It's dusk now, the time when the crows are active!" Xiao Ming took out a dead mouse to feed the crows.
"…What do you mean?" Kato Takeshi took a few steps back.
Tanaka was even more blunt: "Don't suddenly take out dirty things and go out!"
"Oh? It's just a snack for Xiao Ya. Is there any need to react so strongly?" Xiao Ming showed a mischievous expression that was obviously teasing someone.
After dousing the surroundings with disinfectant and rubbing Xiao Ming's hands red, Kato calmed down (was she really calm?): "Regarding this case, we suspect the murderer originally intended to commit a copycat crime, the roadside serial murder case."
"The serial killer is Shizukawa Hiiragi." Xiao Ming got straight to the point as always.
Tanaka was surprised: "Huh?! Is there still a role for Sister Jing?!"
Kato wiped Xiao Ming's hand again: "Please speak carefully."
"Little Crow, evidence." Xiao Ming commanded.
"Cluck—" the little crow flew away.
"Do you think my title of Detective is just empty talk? Manza knew through his own channels that Forensic Doctor Hiiragi was the murderer, so he was so confident in using her. Otherwise, do you think a decent person would be so easily shaken? The victims were all handsome men, right?"
"Gu——" The evidence arrived.
"Well, since Inspector Kato was in charge of the case, I always asked Sister Shizuka to perform the autopsy..." Tanaka panicked.
Xiao Ming jokingly said, "Tanaka-san, you are covering up the crime."
“Ugh…”
"You're being used. Be careful to think more." Kato comforted.
"It hurts even more!"
Xiao Ming clapped his hands: "Great! The case is completely solved! Bye!"
Xiao Ming has other cases that urgently require her participation.
-
"Tanaka, what do you think of Kurahashi Akira?"
"He's not very polite, but he surprisingly uses the honorific 'san' well."
"...What's the fuss? I'm asking about your abilities."
"Ah, ah! I think it's amazing."
"Do you still remember the disappearance murder case that shocked the nation?"
"Oh, of course I'm paying attention."
"It was Akira Kurahashi who identified the murderer on the spot, and with just one sentence, he made the murderer confess to all his crimes."
"How did she do it? What did she say?" Was it really her? That Ming...
"That... I don't know." Inspector Kato closed his eyes. "The case file is encrypted. Not even Inspector Onohara is authorized to view it."
"Is she that powerful?"
"Well, she's the undefeated detective Akira Kurahashi," Kato added. "She used to be active in another city, so it's understandable that you didn't know her since you've just taken up the position."
