Everything in the house is the same as your home, the only difference is that there are fewer children's things.

Without Xiao Jingguang, you actually feel that home is too quiet.

Oh, hurry up and get home, you thought.

I don’t know what the scenery of this world is like.

You ordered a simple breakfast of tomato noodles and still rode your bike to the sushi shop.

Although the place has changed, you still have to go to work.

"Workers! Workers! Be happy workers! We are happy workers..."

You expressionlessly turned off the music on your phone and decided to return to peace and quiet.

Because the character relationships have been reset, you should ask the voice-over in advance about your current relationship with the three candidates (otherwise you won’t know what mode of interaction you should start).

[Toru Amuro: The coffee shop and the sushi shop are next to each other. You have run into each other occasionally before, and now you know each other's names and are just nodding acquaintances.

Jinpei Matsuda: Your experiences and relationships are the same as in the original world (except that there is no Kagemitsu).

Akai Shuichi: You haven’t met yet. 】

Listening to the voice-over, you feel that apart from Matsuda, you may not be able to get in touch with the other two people in these seven days...

Especially Shuichi Akai, how can we find this guy?

Regardless of whether the opponent is red or black, it is difficult to find. It is a rare creature with no fixed location (?).

You held your chin with your hand in distress, thinking in the sushi shop.

The wind chime at the door rang, accompanied by Matsuda Jinpei's familiar teasing voice: "Hey, you look absent-minded, what are you thinking about, Jiang Lai?"

"Of course I want some small change~" You responded with a smile, "Why, you're off duty again today? I really want to know if I get a reward for reporting you to the Metropolitan Police Department. Are you here to give me some small change?"

"Tsk," Matsuda stepped in, "What shift are you working? I'm working overtime - I'm not here to buy sushi today."

"If you're not buying sushi, what are you doing here? Are you here to chat with me?" You said with a smile, "Welcome, Officer."

Matsuda Jinpei casually sat down on the round stool in front of the counter, playing with a pen in his hand: "It's a chat, but it's also work--" He changed the subject, "A person died in the park yesterday."

"ah?"

Matsuda continued: "The police initially determined that he died by drowning. He fell into the pool after getting drunk and was unable to get up, so he drowned."

You have a rough idea of ​​who that person is...it should be the person who gave you the information yesterday. You don't think he drowned accidentally, but...

You still look regretful and say, "Oh my god, this is too bad. Didn't anyone else in the park notice him?"

"The time of death was roughly between 3:30 and 4:30 in the afternoon, and it was raining heavily at the time. There was almost no one in the park." Matsuda paused, "But I don't think he simply died of drunkenness and drowning." He looked at you.

You showed a puzzled expression at the right time: "What's wrong? Why do you think so?"

"First of all, there are no bars or other places around the park. Also, most of the convenience stores nearby sell tourist items, and the few that sell alcohol only sell low-alcohol beer. In addition, most of them are closed during heavy rains, so the possibility of getting drunk and wandering into the park is very small." Jinpei Matsuda described in detail.

"If he brought his own alcohol, he would not have gone to the park to drink in such heavy rain. Moreover, according to the search, this person's residence is in the suburbs, far away from the Central Park."

Matsuda Jinpei stopped spinning his pen and said, "Of course, these are just my personal thoughts. I'm just sharing them with you. This incident has been confirmed to be an accidental death due to drunkenness and drowning."

"You didn't even raise any objections?" You think this is not like Matsuda's character.

Matsuda Jinpei lowered his eyes and said, "Isn't this the usual style of the police? They just casually made a conclusion. What can I say?"

There is a hint of sarcasm and contempt in his tone. You don't know what to say.

You know the story of Jinpei Matsuda's father. He was mistakenly identified as a suspect by the police and ended up being drunk all day long.

This is also the reason why Jinpei Matsuda hated the police in the beginning. He wanted to be a policeman and beat up the Metropolitan Police Commissioner.

"I applied for a special investigation right," Matsuda smiled, "to conduct a simple survey of residents around the park."

“Ah, that’s why you came to see me today.” You understood. Because your home is also near the park.

"That's right. I have already finished my investigation at home. I will come to your workplace to find you if you are working." Matsuda Jinpei opened his notebook. "Come on, let's do the routine and make a record."

His expression turned serious: "Where were you yesterday afternoon from 3 to 5?"

"Because of the heavy rain, I stayed at home."

"What were you doing?"

"I think he was playing on his phone, just scrolling through a few videos."

"Have you seen any suspicious persons through the window?"

"No, I didn't go near the window."

"Can you guarantee that you are telling the truth?"

"..." You stared at him. He had never asked you this last question before. You said firmly, "Of course."

"Very good." Matsuda closed the pen cap.

But he didn't leave in a hurry. Instead, he twirled his pen and said slowly, "Actually, there's one more thing I want to tell you."

“What?” You blinked.

Matsuda smiled and said, "Someone told me that he saw a man running past the window that afternoon. According to the description... he looked somewhat similar to you."

“So…?” You tilt your head.

"So," Matsuda Jinpei came closer, "you really haven't been out?"

"…Pfft." You burst out laughing. "Hey, what the hell is going on, Matsuda? Are you doubting me? Come on, with my personality, why would I go out in the heavy rain?"

"Just a casual question." Matsuda spread his hands.

"In this case, it would be better to check the surveillance?" You are not worried at all, you are sure that all traces have been deleted by you.

"The surveillance video was destroyed." Matsuda quickly followed up.

Matsuda Jinpei crossed his hands and said in a very charming voice: "That's why I'm looking for them one by one..."

"..." You didn't respond, but it was awkward to just sit there. So you pretended to be cool and poured yourself another glass of warm water from the water dispenser.

Matsuda did not stay any longer. He stood up and turned half his body before leaving, with a slightly arrogant smile on his face: "If you have any relevant clues, please contact me."

"If I encounter a suspect, I will call the police department immediately." You sat on the chair and made an OK gesture.

"Just tell me directly," Matsuda Jin-hyung looked down at you, "after all, I'm the only one in charge of this matter now."

“Uh… okay.” You nodded.

Jinpei Matsuda waved goodbye to you casually, his back looking as elegant as ever, with one hand in his pocket, seemingly the same as usual.

But you are keenly aware of something awkward and weird; this Jinpei Matsuda is not exactly the same as the one in the original world.

This is why you had a lump in your throat several times, but in the end you didn't mention the matter about the park and the USB drive to him.

You only have one chance... so be careful.

It's only the second day anyway. You clench your fist. You still have time.

Wait until all three of them have met, then you can slowly consider the candidate. You think to yourself. I don't know how to find Akai Shuichi...

But first you need to make sure of one thing.

You turned on your ordinary cell phone and found Officer Takagi's number in the address book (thanks to Conan and Matsuda, you and Officer Takagi have become a lot more familiar with each other).

"Hello, Officer Takagi?" You asked with a smile, "Well, I have something to ask you. It's about the incident yesterday. I heard that someone died in the park?"

"Did he really drown? ...Oh. Well, I'll learn more and cooperate with your work. Hmm? Okay, okay, I understand. I'll tell you if I have any questions."

You put down your phone. Your expression becomes complicated.

According to Officer Takagi's answer, there was actually a disagreement within the police on whether it was an accident or murder. However, Jinpei Matsuda had no objection to declaring this case an accident, but still requested special investigation rights (these were not confidential information, and you had a good relationship with Matsuda, so Takagi just talked to you about it as if they were chatting).

...Does Jinpei Matsuda intend to take on this case on his own, or does he have other ideas?

You hold your phone tightly. He is the person you are most familiar with, but at this moment, you feel a strange sense of unfamiliarity with him.

You caught a glimpse of a dark shadow swaying in front of you, and when you looked up, you saw Jinpei Matsuda pushing open the glass door again, smoking a cigarette.

"Ah, I found my pen here after I got in the car." He leaned against the door frame and pointed to your table. "It's against your store rules. Since I'm smoking, I won't go in. Can you help me get the pen out?"

“It’s not the behavior of a good police officer to be careless.” You winked teasingly.

"Humph," Matsuda Jinpei took the pen with a smile, "You can't judge a police officer by this."

“Go get busy,” you pushed him, “I guess there are still a lot of houses to investigate, right?”

"Indeed," Matsuda tilted his head slightly, "But let me be curious, who were you calling just now?"

"..." You paused for just 1 second and quickly replied, "You're meddling too much, aren't you?" Your tone was very natural and teasing.

"Order takeout. It will be here soon for lunch," you touched your stomach, "I had a bowl of noodles this morning. I'm already very hungry."

"I thought you ate whatever you sold," Matsuda joked, blowing out a smoke ring. "When I'm free, I can also deliver takeout for you and let you try our Metropolitan Police Department's working meals."

"Hey? Thank you very much, but don't bother." You waved your hands.

"Humph, I just wanted you to have a taste of that awful taste." Matsuda Jinpei said with a grin, "You definitely don't want to eat it a second time."

"You guys are still the same as always..." You smiled, "I was wondering why you suddenly became so thoughtful."

"Haha." Matsuda Jinpei laughed and waved, "Let's go. See you another day."
