As the son of Hattori Heizo, there is a high probability that Hattori Heiji will follow in his father's footsteps in the future. In addition, he has been hanging out with the Osaka police since he was a child. It is normal for him to yearn for a mysterious profession like detective when he is a minor. When he grows up, he will enter the police academy and officially become a policeman to solve cases. This is probably the path he will take.
Therefore, Fujiwara Yuu does not reveal the answer he already knows in order to give Hattori Heiji more room to grow. His reasoning ability is much higher than that of his peers, but when he meets the equally smart Kanto detective boy, it is unclear who will be able to figure out the murderer first.
However, Hattori Heiji did not disappoint Fujiwara Yu's expectations. He successfully found three suspicious points and believed that the murderer was in the film crew. The method of crime was most likely imitating the "suicide" case four years ago.
"Hey, Brother Yingsi, did I help you a lot?"
It's easy to tell from Hattori Heiji's proud expression that he's been overthinking it. Fujiwara Yuu didn't continue to encourage him, but instead stated the answer calmly and directly:
"No, that was just a test. I've already reached the stage of finding the key evidence."
"Huh?!" Hattori Heiji was only surprised for a moment. He quickly stretched out his hands and waved them left and right: "Brother Yingsi, please don't tell me who the murderer is. Let me do it myself!"
Fujiwara Yu calmly put on his ski goggles. He didn't plan to stay outside in the cold wind. With the help of the detective boy to find the delay device, he just needed to go back to the lounge and wait.
He glanced at the other members of the filming crew who had arrived late, because he knew very well that the murderer would definitely not have time to deal with the time-delay device, so there was no need to worry that the detective boy would not be able to find it.
"I didn't plan to tell you, but just a friendly reminder... there's a junior high school student who has the same reasoning as you, and he's already searching for evidence along the cable car route." Fujiwara Yuu looked like he was just looking for trouble. There was an age difference between him and Hattori, so if he wanted to really motivate him, he could only use someone of the same age.
As expected, after hearing this, Hattori Heiji was like a chicken with its blood injected, and shouted that he would figure out who the murderer was before the junior high school student solved the case.
Fujiwara Yu did not stay at the scene of the crime and went straight back to the common room. He opened the door of the smoking room and found a seat in a corner. He smoked and admired the snow scene outside, which was quite pleasant.
Of course, the premise is that no murder has occurred.
Just as Fujiwara Yu was smoking and daydreaming, the cell phone in his pocket rang. After opening the cover and seeing that the caller ID was "White", the expression on his face instantly became serious - you know, White would not call him when he had nothing to do, it seemed that something had happened.
"Hello, White, it's me."
"Mr. Clare, are you available to answer the phone now?"
"Okay, go ahead."
"I just exchanged intelligence with Mr. Scotland. He said Rye Whiskey has been coming home late frequently lately, and always without any missions. Mr. Bourbon tried to follow him but failed."
Rye whiskey, fbi?
Fujiwara Yu raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and after thinking for a moment, he slowly said:
"It seems the FBI can't hold back and is planning to do something. I wonder if our actions have affected them... Logically, they wouldn't take action against the organization so quickly. You know, Bourbon is in the intelligence team, and he hasn't received many useful intelligence clues. The situation at the FBI can't be any better than ours."
"Mr. Clare, the FBI is taking action because of Cavitha Tequila, right? Are they worried that this incident will affect Rye Whiskey's undercover mission, so they implemented their plan in advance?" White asked.
The FBI had no idea that Caviezel had been taken away by the National Police Agency, and even less so, they were aware that Bourbon and Scotland, who played the role of loyalists, were both public security officers. Therefore, given the uncertainty, the FBI's decision to take action before the truth was revealed was a tactic they employed—the so-called "stop the loss in time." They were concerned that the organization's recent tightening of regulations on codename members might lead to Rye Whiskey suffering the same fate as Caviezel.
Fujiwara Yu slowly exhaled a puff of smoke, extinguished the cigarette in his hand, stood up and leaned against the windowsill, his tone revealing joy:
"I'm quite curious about who the FBI is targeting. I don't want my prey to be snatched away... So I'd like you to keep a close eye on it. If you find anything unusual, please report it to me immediately. Osaka is not far from Tokyo."
"Okay, what about Miyano?"
"The organization won't attack anyone who has any interests or value. Let's leave it alone for now."
"Okay, then I won't disturb you on your vacation."
Click.
After closing the flip phone and putting it back in his pocket, Fujiwara Yu pushed open the door of the smoking room and saw Hattori Heiji running in excitedly. He was obviously looking for him.
"From your expression, you should already know who the murderer is, right?"
"Yes, not only that, I also know where the key evidence is. It's all thanks to Inspector Goto that they didn't leave the police's sight. He didn't have time to deal with it at all."
Fujiwara Yuu was startled when he heard this, then he remembered that the disguise wouldn't be able to be disposed of, so was he hiding the evidence on himself? How daring! Wasn't he worried about the police using their authority to search him?
He thought about the two unreliable policemen and realized that they did have the capital to be bold.
"Now that we know who the murderer is, let's solve this case as soon as possible." Fujiwara Yu yawned slightly tiredly. He had been having frequent nightmares recently and his sleep was very poor. He also wanted to go back to the hotel where he was staying and soak in a comfortable hot spring.
