Chapter 14 fourth quarter
"Sure enough, a murder happened."
After eating a nutritious lunch, Ah Ren spread out a newspaper on the teacher's desk and muttered.The social edition published what they saw yesterday in a very small space.
Hearing Ah Ren's voice, Tieping came over.
"I also read the newspaper. I heard that it was only discovered two days after the death. This world is really terrible."
"So, make more friends."
"Why didn't the newspapers mention the names of the two criminal police uncles?"
He meant Shindo and Urushizaki.
"How could they be mentioned? Although they are handsome, their positions are not high."
"Is it just the criminal police at the grassroots level?"
"yes."
Aren put away the newspaper. "By the way, I'm going today too, remember to ask Harada to go with me."
"Ah──" Tie Ping made a useless voice. "Teacher, have you not given up yet?"
"Why did you give up? Although we were only a little short of catching him yesterday, he will definitely not be able to escape today. We have already grasped the enemy's behavior pattern."
"You are full of fighting spirit."
"Of course, for my students. You are so lucky to have such a good teacher."
"However, I think he should have left that area. Even if he did, it would be a waste of time."
"How do you know if you don't go and see?"
"I... I'm going to cram school today."
"Then ask for leave from the cram school. Which one is more important, the cram school or the game console?"
"What?" Tieping sighed deeply. "What a mess..."
...So, after school this day, Shinobi and the others came to the shopping street again.
"I don't care anymore."
Harada, who followed Tieping, whispered, "It's not very expensive..."
"What are you talking about! If you underestimate money, don't blame me for being rude."
"But, I'm going to practice the piano today..."
"What are you doing? You are a big boy, what kind of piano are you practicing?"
"My mother told me to practice."
"It's not a good thing to obey your parents. How far have you played?"
Harada thought for a while, and said the repertoire he was currently practicing.His level has completely surpassed Aren. "Hey!" She smacked her lips.
After arriving at Nakamura Electric Store, Ah Ren walked into the alley again.
"Shouldn't he be there today?"
She said when she came to the place where she happened to meet the boy yesterday.Tie Ping and Harada showed expressions of "Didn't you say it a long time ago?"
"However, that kid hides here and grabs other people's things, which means that he is very familiar with this area and may live nearby. Judging by his age, he should be in the fifth or sixth grade of elementary school, maybe he is from Dongdalu Elementary School student……"
The children who live in the east side of the Dalu Elementary School district all go to Dongdalu Elementary School, which used to be a branch of Dalu Elementary School.
"If he's a student at that school, it's a lot easier."
Harada grabbed Shinobi's sleeve. "Teacher, you can go to Dongdalu Elementary School and ask them to show you the photos of the students, and you can find out right away."
"It's because I can't do it, so I'm working hard. I don't want to make things big, and it's best to solve it privately."
That way you don't know when the results will come.Tieping muttered in his mouth, but luckily it didn't reach the teacher's ears.
"Okay, let's go to that electrical appliance store first, maybe he will go to that store too, just ask the boss."
Aren turned and walked back to the direction of the shopping street, and saw a man walking in front of him.He was tall and wore a trench coat over his suit.The man was walking with his head down, but when he spotted Shinobi and the others, he raised his right hand to greet them.
"Hi! Why did I see you here? Taking a walk?"
He is Shindo detective of the prefectural police headquarters.At first glance, it feels like an elite.
"Uh, yes, something just happened."
Although Ah Ren murmured in his heart, how could it be possible to take two students for a walk in such an alley, but he still replied with a smile on his face.
"Mr. Shinto, are you working on a case?"
"yes."
Then he told Aren and his team that someone was found killed near here yesterday.
"I know. I happened to pass by here yesterday, is Mr. Urushizaki here too? Are you going to inquire around here today?"
"Yeah, we still have to rely on two legs to handle the case."
Tieping, who was standing beside Ah Ren, said: "The low-level criminal police are really hardworking." Ah Ren slapped him on the head.Fortunately, Shindo didn't seem to hear it, and he continued leisurely:
"This murder case is very difficult. To tell you the truth, we are looking for the victim's son."
"The victim's son?"
"Yes, he disappeared shortly before the murder. Ah, by the way, just by the way..."
Shinto took out a photo from his suit pocket. "Do you know this kid? Or, have you ever seen..."
However, Tieping didn't even look at it, and repeated the same words as before, "We don't know anyone here, you can go to Dongdalu Elementary School to inquire."
"Of course I have already been there. The school said that there is no such student. Anyway, you can take a look."
Shinto insisted that they look at the photo, and Harada took it. "Huh?" He muttered softly, then held the photo, rolled his eyes upwards, and pouted.
"I seem to have seen it somewhere."
"Let me see."
Tie Ping took the photo and immediately cried out. "Oh!"
"do you know him?"
Shinto asked.Aren also looked at the photo.
"Oh!"
"Master, do you know him too?"
Shinto asked excitedly.Aren handed the photo to him and asked:
"Where is the child now?"
Shindo had an expression on his face that was about to cry.
"I'm just asking you guys."
"Oh, so he snatched the game cartridge, and you guys want to catch him." Shindo said in surprise while cutting up the Okonomiyaki with a shovel.This Okonomiyaki shop is separated from Nakamura Electric's by a shop. Although Shinto asked if he should go to the coffee shop for a while, Teppei and Harada recommended this shop.Aren also thinks this shop is more ideal than coffee and black tea. "What a coincidence, I didn't expect that child to be the son of the murder victim." As Shinobi said, he put the Okonomiyaki sprinkled with green seaweed into his mouth. "The victim's son disappeared suddenly before the murder. He probably knew something. In short, we must find him as soon as possible and ask him about the situation." Not knowing if he got any clues that might help to find the child, Shinto's tone became relaxed. "Did you say he didn't go to school?" Anin asked. "That's right, I guessed it before. Their family fled from the place where they lived overnight, so they didn't go through the transfer procedures, so they didn't go to school." This is indeed a rather unfortunate situation.Ah Ren couldn't help feeling a little sympathetic to that child. "The question is why did he steal the game cartridge..." "Yeah, that's a big question." Shinto also nodded. Tieping and Harada were eating fried noodles and flipping through juvenile magazines, which were old magazines from several months ago. The cover was torn, with dried cabbage scraps stuck to the pages. store name. Ah Ren stopped his chopsticks and turned to look at the two students. "You don't have to read comics all the time, you should also provide a little help. Just eat and do nothing, it's no different from eating a king's meal." "But we don't know anything." Right?Tieping looked at Harada again and asked.Harada kept eating, nodding desperately. "For example, you can think about why that kid stole the game cartridge." Tieping took a sip of the water in the glass, and then looked at Aren leisurely. "Just tell me why?" "It can't be said that he wants to play with it. I don't think he has time to play games." "If he wants to play, he can just borrow it from someone else. I think he should sell the game he snatched." "Sold it? Where are you going to sell it?" Shinto interjected. "Of course it's a second-hand store. Those games are just released, so they should fetch a good price." "A second-hand store? Well, it's possible." "Everyone knows this kind of thing." Tieping sneered disapprovingly. "Where is there a second-hand store?" Nin asked, Teppei and Harada looked at each other and replied: "A lot of restaurants have been opened recently, and they can be found everywhere. The biggest one should be Sanmingtang." "San Ming Tang?" "In today." This place is the next stop of Dashi. "Okay," Shinto stood up. "Let's go there and have a look, can you take me there?" The two students put down their disposable chopsticks and sighed, then Tieping spoke his heart out. "There is really no way, just go if you want to go."
There is also a shopping street in front of Imazato Station, but there is no vault.Sanmingtang is not far from the shopping street. It mainly rents out videos, but one-third of the store is a game area.The boss has a five-point haircut and has a good physique. He feels like a chef in a sushi restaurant. The boss took the photo that Xinteng handed him, and immediately said: "It turned out to be that child." "Has he been here?" Shinto asked.The boss nodded vigorously. "I came here yesterday and the day before yesterday. He came to sell games. Because the goods he brought were good, I was very impressed." "Uncle, is he here to sell the 'Future City' cassette?" Tieping asked tremblingly. "Yes, you know it very well. I just brought it yesterday and sold it early this morning." The boss said happily, Tieping frowned and cursed: "Damn it." "Aren't you here today?" Shinto asked. "Not here today. I haven't seen him before, and I may not come again in the future." "Do you know where he lives?" "How could I possibly know?" Other guests were calling the boss, and the boss went to greet the guests.Shinto winked at Aren and the others, and walked out of Sanming Hall. "It's a pity." Anin said. "No, it's a great gain to be able to find out here. It's causing you trouble." Xin Teng said that he would send Tie Ping and Harada home to express his apology, and Anin said goodbye to them at the door of the store. ──I really have nothing to do, and I came to this kind of place specially... Shinobu walked in the shopping street in Imazato, desperately holding back the wry smile in his heart.After thinking about it carefully, I realized that this matter had nothing to do with her at all. Now that he's here, Aren decides to take a walk home.She hadn't walked alone for a long time. On the way, she saw a soba noodle shop, and there was a smell of bonito broth from the door, and Aren stopped in her tracks.It's been a long time since I went to a stand-up soba restaurant. ──Well, I just ate Okonomiyaki, but I still can't resist the smell. After hesitating again and again, finally, Ah Ren entered the noodle shop, and several men who looked like office workers were standing in front of the bar eating noodles. "welcome." The boss at the bar greeted her loudly. “Tempura Soba…” She stopped before she could say the word "a bowl".Among the row of men in front of the bar, she saw the boy's figure.Of course it was the boy. "what!" Hearing the cry, the boy also found Aren.It was too late to say that, but soon, he put down the bowl in his hand and rushed out of the store.Aren chased it out without thinking. "Hey, miss." Ah Ren heard the boss calling her from behind, but now is not the time to eat noodles. The boy was still running fast.However, he may not be familiar with this area, so he did not choose the complicated alleys.Moreover, the roads in this area are relatively wide. As long as he is on the main road, Ren is confident that he can catch up with him. There is a Joto Canal near Imazato Station, and of course you have to cross that river on a bridge.Aren caught the boy before going up the bridge. "Fuck, let me go!" "You should give up your heart. Once you are caught by me, you will never be able to escape." "Damn! I actually met an old woman who runs so fast." "Don't underestimate me, I used to be the fourth trump card." "I didn't steal anything from you. You chased me all your life yesterday and today. Why?" "Because I cannot stand by and watch the misfortunes of small children." "Hmph, what's wrong with those brats who don't have to worry about food and clothing? Even if one or two games are stolen, they don't feel any pain." "Don't get me wrong, this is not a matter of money, but a matter of mood. Besides, you are also very unfortunate. If you always have such biased thoughts, you will eventually lose your dignity as a human being. Once a person loses Dignity is scum." "Scum is scum, let me go." When the boy was struggling, his stomach made a rumbling sound.They stared at each other without speaking. "So you're hungry, right, you haven't finished eating the noodles just now." "Don't be too wordy, don't worry about it." "How can that be? Because hungry children are unlucky too." After An Ren finished speaking, he looked around and took the boy to a nearby snack shop.The snack shop is selling fried squid at the door.Squid yaki is a snack in which eggs and squid are added to batter, flattened with two iron plates and fried.Ah Ren bought squid and handed it to the boy. The boy looked up at her and took it with a displeased face. "Let's go while eating." Anin took his hand, but he stood still. "Where are you going?" "Do you still need to ask? Of course, go to the police." "It's just stealing the game, so there's no need to call the police." "It's not just about the game. You will be asked to clarify this matter later. The police are looking for you for other things." "Why? I didn't do anything else bad!" "Since you didn't do anything bad, why did you run away? Your father was killed, where did you go?" The boy who was struggling in the hands of Renin suddenly fell silent, looking at her with nervous sharp eyes. "you're lying!" Aren stared blankly at his change. "you……" The teenager bit his lower lip, his eyes still staring at her. "do not you know?" She found tears streaming from the boy's eyes.Ah Ren let go of the boy and wanted to get the handkerchief, but the boy immediately slipped past her and escaped. "Ah, don't run!" When Aren yelled, the boy had almost disappeared into the crowd.Ah Ren was powerless and stood there dumbfounded.
