February 14th, Thursday.
The annual Valentine's Day is here again, which is an unnecessary holiday for singles.
Because this kind of festival is very unfriendly to singles. Looking at people coming and going on the street, they are all in pairs, and some even French kiss in the street without caring about other people's eyes... It's hard to describe.
Sitting in the office, Fujiwara Yuu widened his eyes. There were only a few single people sitting here today. As for the three who had families, they had already taken leave and spent the holidays happily with their partners.
Even the single Miwako Sato took a day off today, which caused Takagi Wataru to sigh from time to time, as if mourning his secret love that ended before it even began. He probably thought that Miwako Sato already had a secret crush.
Fujiwara Yuu was not depressed because of Valentine's Day, but simply because the virus installed on Itakura Taku's computer had received feedback - Itakura Taku had the habit of writing a diary, and he updated his diary last night, mentioning that his way of communicating with the organization members had become email.
Although there is no email address mentioned in the diary, the content of the emails can be easily viewed by sending emails through Itakura Taku using a computer.
Through a series of investigations on the IP address, we could only find out that the other party was in the United States. Apart from that, there was no progress at all. This also shows that the organization was very cautious when executing transactions. The mailbox also has a complete protection system. If an attack is forcibly launched on the protection system, it is very likely to fail. The consequence of failure is to expose oneself.
Therefore, Fujiwara Yu did not act rashly. He only knew that the organization agreed to Itakura Taku's request, was willing to pay a considerable amount of compensation, and agreed not to harass Itakura Taku for a year.
Having had contact with the organization, he does not think that the organization is so easy to talk to. Does this indirectly prove that the software designed by Taku Itakura is very important to the organization?
If that's the case, we need to understand what kind of software it is. It seems that investigating from the perspective of Itakura Taku's social relations is the right thing to do. It's a pity that there has been no progress on Yinsen Hondo's side. I wonder if someone is deliberately hiding information.
"……Why."
Fujiwara Yu's thoughts were interrupted by Takagi Wataru's seventy-seventh sigh this morning. He looked up at Takagi, who had a sad face. He looked like a puppy abandoned by its owner, except for a pair of dog ears popping out of its head.
He picked up Sato Miwako's leave request, glanced at the contents, and in order to ensure that his subordinates would take their work seriously, he had to remind them:
"Takagi, I would be even happier if you could use your imagination to reason about the case."
"ah?"
Takagi Wataru looked at Takashi Sosuke in confusion, somewhat puzzled by the meaning of his sudden words. When had he ever shown his imagination? Did I look smart when I was daydreaming?
"She doesn't have a boyfriend, and she's not going on a blind date. She just asked for leave to spend the holiday with her mother."
Spending Valentine's Day with your mother?
Takagi Wataru suddenly remembered that Sato Miwako's father, Sato Masayoshi, had tragically died in the line of duty while investigating the "Chou Si Lang" case seventeen years ago. He suddenly understood and stood up, looking at Takagi Sosuke with a smile:
"Inspector Takashi, do you want some chocolate? Even though we can't receive chocolate, we can give it to each other!"
Tsuda Usho, who had been silent all the time, couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Takagi Wataru. This kid Takagi had eaten so many bamboo shoots that he really took all the bamboo shoots on the mountain.
When Fujiwara Yu heard this, he felt a little depressed. He never expected that Takagi Shigeru, who had "returned to normal", would have such a decline in emotional intelligence and use such words to "attack" him.
He forced a smile on his face that was uglier than crying, and said word by word:
"No, thank you."
With a happy face, Takagi Shigeru didn't realize that there was anything wrong with his words. He could only say that human joys and sorrows are incommensurable. He hummed an unknown tune, took out a chocolate bar, and made coffee for himself while eating it.
Even when the landline phone rang, announcing the end of their leisure time, Takagi Shigeru answered the call with a smile, but after hearing the content, the smile on his face abruptly stopped.
"Could it be that something big happened because we didn't celebrate Valentine's Day properly?" Tsuda Usho asked after noticing Takagi Wataru's expression.
After Takagi Wataru hung up the phone, he lowered his head to check that he had taken his handcuffs, gun, and police manual. He said seriously,
"Yes, it's a family annihilation case, and judging by the name, it seems to be a foreigner... Inspector, let's get going quickly."
The tragic case of family annihilation and the fact that all the victims were foreigners made Fujiwara Yuu and Tsuda Usho look solemn. You know, cases involving foreigners are more difficult to handle. If they are not solved quickly, the news will probably make a big fuss.
Fearing that reporters might follow the smell to the scene and interfere with the investigation, the three men, not daring to delay, grabbed their suit jackets and hurriedly drove to the crime scene in Arakawa District.
The crime scene is located at 3-42 Minami-Senju-cho, Arakawa-ku. It is a two-story independent house with a rather old feel. There are a large number of empty plastic bottles piled up in the yard. It seems that the owner also sells waste to make a living.
After putting on his shoe covers and gloves, Fujiwara Yuu walked into the house with two of his subordinates. As soon as they entered, they saw the first victim of this case—a beautiful blonde victim wearing a pale yellow princess dress, lying face down on the ground.
Tsuda Usho bent down and was about to check the victim's head injury, but he noticed that there were black roots hidden under the golden hair. Foreigners' hair roots should not be of this color.
Realizing that there was something wrong with the victim's identity, he quickly spoke out:
"Inspector, something seems amiss. The victim's blonde hair isn't her natural color. It must have been dyed. Look here, the roots are all black."
Fujiwara Yuu, who was very knowledgeable about hair dyeing, could easily tell the difference. He just took a quick look and asked sideways:
"Takagi, didn't you say that the three victims were foreigners?"
"Huh?" Takagi scratched the back of his head in confusion. He also said with a bewildered look on his face, "Because the caller said one of the victims was named Garcia Pattison, that's why I thought the victim was a foreigner."
This is indeed not a name that a Japanese person would come up with. The last name is Pattison.
Fujiwara Yu turned the victim over with confusion. After seeing her appearance, he found that she did not have the facial features of a mixed-race person at all. She looked like a native Japanese.
So why is she called this name?
