It has been a few days since he arrived at the police academy, but Fujiwara Yuu has not forgotten his mission - to obtain permanent residency in this world - because of his fulfilling police academy life.
Speaking of which, when he had just regained his memories of his past life, he hadn't really cared much about permanent residency. Back then, he thought it wouldn't matter if he disappeared one day, but now his mindset was different.
Outside the police academy, there are his father and Saito Masami whom he is looking forward to seeing, and inside the police academy, there are classmates whom he hopes to spend every day with. After leaving the police academy, he also wants to perform his duties as a police officer well.
As expected, once a person has a bond, he will become greedy. He now wants to stay here forever, so he must get the key to open the world, which is to find the protagonist named "Edogawa Conan".
Fujiwara Yu was just about to enter the name he had tried countless times into the browser page, but his hand shook and he accidentally pressed the "Restore Recently Closed Page" button, and a related picture of a news report popped up instantly.
The Nagano couple's brutal murder.
"Mr. and Mrs. Nagano?"
The thoughtful Fujiwara Yu suddenly remembered that the person who was sitting in this position using the computer was Morobushi Kagemitsu, and wasn't Morobushi born in Nagano Prefecture?
His eyes quickly fell on the content of the news report. After seeing the couple's surname was "Zhu Fu", his pupils suddenly shrank. Only then did he know that Zhu Fu's parents had passed away.
Fujiwara Yu always believed that a person like Morofushi Kagemitsu, with good upbringing and polite manners, would be born in a warm and happy family, because only in such an environment can a child who grows towards the sun like a sunflower be born.
But the reality was completely the opposite. After carefully reading the relevant content of the case, he realized that for Zhufu Jingguang, all the good things ended on that night fifteen years ago.
Fifteen years ago, Zhu Fujingguang was only seven years old, just in the first grade of elementary school.
"…The incident occurred at 7:07 PM… Mr. Morifu, the first victim, was stabbed multiple times and collapsed at the entrance. The fatal wound was in the right upper abdomen, and the liver and gallbladder had ruptured, causing massive bleeding… Ms. Morifu, the second victim, was lying on the living room floor. The fatal wound was in the heart, a single stab wound that killed her."
Fujiwara Yu couldn't help but clench his fists after seeing this information. No wonder when he went to get the medicine box in the early morning, he ran into Morifushi Kagemitsu, who was pale and said he wanted to wash his face with cold water. It seemed that he had woken up from a nightmare like himself.
His eyes fell on the last few lines of the report, especially the sentence: The suspect is still at large.
Didn't he catch it? If he had, he wouldn't have such a serious problem.
Fujiwara Yuu frowned and closed the page with his mouse. He wasn't confident he could catch the murderer. This was a case from fifteen years ago. Criminal investigation technology is not very advanced these days, let alone the Showa era, when there weren't even technical teams. DNA databases didn't even exist, making overturning the case incredibly difficult.
"It's really painful to live in this underdeveloped era. I miss online shopping, smartphones, and my favorite holographic games."
He buried his head in the desk, but after just a few seconds he stood up dejectedly and accepted the reality of having nothing.
After Fujiwara Yuu searched "Edogawa Conan" again to confirm that this character had not appeared yet, he strode towards the dormitory building with an expression as if the whole world owed him money.
"Hey, little Fujiwara just came back. Could he have gone on a date with some beautiful student?" Hagiwara Kenji said in a cheerful tone.
He really always looks like a flamboyant male butterfly, but in fact he is only good at talking. When faced with girls who approach him with some purpose, he will use his language skills to run away.
"No, I just..."
Fujiwara Yuu's gaze fell on someone in the common area, specifically someone unpacking the plastic wrapper of toilet cleaner. If memory served him correctly, Matsuda had already unpacked a bottle of toilet cleaner the previous night, so why was he unpacking a new one now?
"Well, there should be some unsealed cleaning agents in the cabinet," Fujiwara Yuu reminded kindly.
The other party looked up at Fujiwara Yuu and explained with a smile:
"You're Fujiwara-san from the class next door, right? I'm Taiichi Sano, the class monitor at Nakatani Field. I didn't mean to waste anything. There really isn't any opened detergent in the cabinet."
Fujiwara Yu showed a slightly confused expression. He walked forward and opened the cupboard and found that there were only three unopened bottles of toilet cleaners left. This made him feel strange because he clearly saw Matsuda open a bottle yesterday.
"Fujiwara-chan, is something wrong?" Hagiwara Kenji turned around and asked in confusion.
"Hagiwara, you and I saw Matsuda opening a new bottle of toilet cleaner yesterday, right?" Fujiwara Yuu asked Hagiwara Kenji uncertainly.
Hagiwara Kenji reacted quickly and glanced into the open cupboard, then said with a serious expression:
"Actually, I noticed yesterday that a bottle of toilet cleaner was missing, but I didn't think much of it. But now another bottle is missing, which is a problem. Should I report the situation to the instructor?"
Sano Taiichi looked at the detergent in his hand with some confusion and expressed his doubts:
"You think someone stole toilet cleaner? But it's not worth much."
"It's not about money. Why didn't the person who stole the detergent just take two bottles? Or, it would be less likely to be discovered if he took them from different floors? So I think his purpose is not money, but to use the detergent for experiments, or something worse." Kenji Hagiwara explained.
