Interlude: Thief Police Officer 21
"Inspector," Kogoro Maori, sweating profusely, saw a familiar person and hurriedly went to meet him, "Lan and that little brat..."
His question ended with Officer Megure shaking his head. This once elite detective seemed to have aged dozens of years in the few hours since his daughter went missing. His suit was wrinkled, his hair was messy, and his forehead was covered with sweat, which made his former partner sad. "The Beika Building, the second floor below ground and the fifth or sixth floor are the most likely locations." For the anxious father, only finding his daughter can make him feel at ease. "Brother Ishii has already asked someone to go there. Sato, Shiratori and I will be here together."
Kogoro Mouri bit his lip and nodded, and began a new round of inspection of the surrounding environment. The Beika Building is not an isolated building, and because it is under renovation, most of the surveillance cameras are not turned on. It is difficult but not impossible to leave with two half-grown children.
We must catch up...Inspector Megure lowered his hat and prayed silently for the two children in his heart, hoping that nothing must happen to them.
"We have checked the fifth and sixth floors (in Russian)," Oleg reported to his sister as he watched his companions who had hurried over return empty-handed. "The construction drawings are not very accurate. We tried our best to check every room, but we found no traces of bombs or children. Erenika, how about you over there? (in Russian)"
"Sergei has taken people away three times (Russian)," Erenikka said calmly. As a leader, she couldn't show her anxiety at this time. "Now, I'm going to the stairs... Who is that?!"
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and it seemed that two people were approaching. Erenika became alert. You know, they had already asked the floor manager to clear the area in advance, and there couldn't be innocent citizens staying in there... Could it be...
Just as she was thinking about it, two footsteps sounded, as if they had discovered something, and they rushed towards her. "Are you the helper that the boss mentioned?" A middle-aged man who looked to be about 30 years old, with ordinary looks and short hair, took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead. "There is no time to lose, let's hurry up. We are planning to build a small exhibition hall on the second floor below ground. There is a room..."
"Who are you?" Elenika interrupted him with a frown, and her eyes couldn't help but look at the young man with stubble following him, "And who is he?"
"The name is not important, you can just call me Suzuki," the middle-aged man took out a business card from his briefcase and handed it to Erenica, "This is Kirisaki-kun. His skills are not that good, but he has a quick reaction. The boss said it would be useful to bring him along."
Elenica stared at the business card, which had the same words printed on it as the one her brother had received.
"Inspector Kazuki Ishii of the Special Investigation Team of the Investigation Division 1."
"Let's go quickly," Morobushi Keimitsu, disguised as Kirisaki Osamu, took a step forward, worry in his blue cat eyes. His sniping interrupted Pramya's prior arrangement, but also caused new problems. He spoke earnestly to Erenica, without subconsciously avoiding the scars on her face like most people, "Don't worry."
"Mr. Suzuki is a professional when it comes to finding hidden things."
Seventeen minutes left.
