Oribe moved to a room in the Metropolitan Police Department and resumed work.Next to him were three large cardboard boxes, all of which were found from Kanno Kaiji's room.There are music albums, notebooks, magazines, videotapes, CDs, video games and other things.Oribe is carefully confirming these things, maybe there are clues that can show the relationship between Kaiji Kanno and Nagano Prefecture, hidden in it. But in fact, Oribe felt as if he was looking for something that didn't exist.A sense of wasted effort came to my mind, and Kanno might have just left for Nagano on a whim.Perhaps because he couldn't bear the feeling of being a white worker, Kondo, who was working with him, said that he hadn't been home for a long time, so he went back just now.

After reading all the manga magazines, Oribe began to squeeze his shoulders.He didn't think there were clues hidden in the comics, but he couldn't help but read them.Maybe some of Kanno’s favorite comics have Nagano as the background, and this became his motivation to go to Nagano. He felt that there was someone beside him, and when he looked up, it was Jiu Zuka who was sitting opposite him while taking out his reading glasses. "Did you find anything?" Hisuzuka picked up the magazine and asked.He didn't sound like he was expecting any good news. "No..." Oribe said sullenly.

"Really?" Hisuzuka nodded, as if to say that it was so.He took out the cigarette case and looked around.After Oribe found out, he went to another table to get an ashtray. "Ashin doesn't seem to have gained anything." Jiuzuka said. "Yeah, Kanno Michiko doesn't look like she's lying." "Although she concealed the fact that her son secretly received the money, but things have come to this point, she should not not tell his whereabouts... right?" Hisuzuka puffed on the ceiling, "But why did he escape to How about going to Nagano?"

Oribe didn't understand why Hisuzuka came to him.Because of the relationship between the boss and his subordinates, although they usually talk to each other, when there is only Oribe alone like now, Hisuzuka seldom comes deliberately. "I don't know what happened to the bank's surveillance camera?" Oribe couldn't help feeling that he was about to suffocate, so he hurried to find a topic. "It's been confirmed. It's Kanno himself twice. That's right. That kid just went out without any disguise. Didn't he expect there to be a surveillance camera? Or did he think it would be okay even if he was caught? Anyway, I don't understand him What are you thinking?"

"Is Kanno still in Nagano Prefecture?" "I don't know about that. But even if he leaves, as long as he can find his previous hiding place, he may be able to grasp his current whereabouts." So Oribe felt that Hisatsuka seemed to come to tell him to investigate carefully. "Can the matter of Kanno be made public?" Oribe tried to express his thoughts. "Do you want to announce that he may be hiding in Nagano Prefecture? Do you want to cancel his photo?" "I know it's unlikely, but I wonder if there are some ways to solicit information? It's impossible for Kanno to live alone, right? As long as it can be made public, people around him will report."

"Changfeng is already wanted, right? But no one came to report. There are so many calls to provide information, but they are all nonsense." "I know, but..." "I know what you want to say, but if you can't do it, you can't do it. Kanno is just a related person, and he is underage." That's right, Oribe lowered his head. "How old are you?" Hisuzuka suddenly asked a strange question. "Twenty-eight." "Well—then you are more than ten years older than them?" Hisuzuka continued to smoke.They refer to Banzaki Atsuya and Kanno Kaier.

"What a guy at that age is thinking, I have no idea." As soon as Oribe finished speaking, Hisuzuka laughed. "How can the youngest of us say such things? Then what should we do? We can only raise our hands and surrender, right?" "But a difference of ten years is still a lot." "Maybe. But can you try to imagine it? I wish you could tell me what those guys were thinking?" "Impossible, I can't understand those guys' thoughts at all." "Then you think back to your eighteen-year-old situation and answer my question. This should be fine, right?"

"This..." Oribe smiled wryly.The faces of several high school classmates appeared in his mind. Hisuzuka shook the ashes into the ashtray. "Honestly, what do you think those dead brats think about juvenile law? If you do something wrong, your name will not be canceled, and you are unlikely to be imprisoned, so you can do whatever you want - just because Is it because they have such an idea that they are allowed to do those messy things?" Oribe frowned, crossing his arms over his chest. "There are many bad people around me, but I think no one would say this kind of thought. I don't think they will think so much before acting. But it is indeed true that there is such a thing as juvenile law. The so-called understanding is actually just knowing that once something goes wrong, there is juvenile law to protect yourself."

"What's the situation with Banzaki and the others? Did you do those stupid things because you thought you were underage and should be forgiven?" "I can't say it's impossible." Hisuzuka nodded and extinguished the cigarette.After the cigarette was completely extinguished, he continued to crush the ash, as if trying to get rid of his anxiety. "Shouldn't the team leader be more clear about this issue?" Regarding Oribe's words, Hisuzuka raised an eyebrow, "What do you mean?" "I heard that you were in charge of the juvenile homicide case before, that is, the case where the body was burned with a lighter..."

"That case." Jiuzuka frowned, "Did you hear what Ah Zhen said?" "yes." "That's also a terrible case." Hisuzuka was smoking a second cigarette, "The brats killed their playing companions for some boring reasons. Even after they were arrested, they didn't think they had broken into a serious crime." Woe, because none of them tried to apologize to the victim's family." "Mano said that the murderers only shed tears for themselves." "They were crying because they were upset by the police. One of the parents actually comforted the bastard son and said, 'It's okay, you can come out soon.'"

"I heard that the team leader is still in touch with the victim's family." As soon as Oribe finished speaking, Hisatsuka bit his upper lip in embarrassment. "That's not because I stand on moral grounds, it's just that I happen to be in charge of this job, that is, the job of contacting family members." "Is that right?" "However, after meeting several times, I can finally understand the feelings of the family members. Because I once had a child of a similar age." Oribe recalls the death of Hisatsuka's son in a car accident. "The victim's father asked me to tell him the day when the murderers will be brought to justice." Hisuzuka said while stroking his bearded cheeks, "I asked him why he wanted to know? He said he wanted to tell the murderers something. , so he was involved in the transfer. I understood right away. So I said to him: 'Forget it.'” "Does that father want revenge?" Oribe asked. "Maybe. No, I don't know what he thinks. But after I said that, the father's face changed drastically. He said, isn't your job to punish bad guys? Since you don't punish those bastards, Then I'll just come by myself." "How do you answer the team leader?" "I have nothing to say." Hisuzuka looked straight into Oribe's eyes, "How could I possibly be able to answer it? If it were you, what would you say?" Oribe looked away, and the faces of Nagamine Shigeki and Ayumura appeared in his mind. "Oribe, can you figure it out?" Hisuzuka said. "what?" "Regarding this case, your job is to find Kanno, and after you find him, you will have to investigate his relationship with Nagamine Ema's death. However, doing so is tantamount to depriving Nagamine Shigeki of the opportunity to take revenge. The woman's resentment will also be forced to be sealed in my heart. You should feel very puzzled, right? It's only me and you here, you can tell me honestly. Anything you say will not be included in the assessment." After saying this Kuzuka pursed his lips into a smile, and then immediately became very serious, "How is it?" Oribe coughed a few times, straightened his back, swallowed a mouthful of saliva and said: "To be honest, I hope Mr. Nagamine... Nagamine finds Kanno before us, and I hope he will give up the idea of ​​revenge..." "Hey, wait a minute." Hisuzuka stretched out his hand, "Are you telling the truth? Don't lie!" "yes……" "Do you really want him to give up the idea of ​​revenge?" "Well, no." Oribe lowered his head, then raised his head again, "That's right, my real thought is that it would be best if Mr. Changfeng can complete his revenge." "Well, it's okay to think so." Hisuzuka raised his jaw, "It's only natural for you to think this way, don't feel guilty about this kind of thinking. We are not moral teachers, nor priests, but ordinary criminal police, there is no need Consider things like justice. There is no need for us to argue about this issue—at least the criminal police can do so.” "At least the detective can" - Oribe felt that Hisatsuka seemed to be emphasizing this part. "In short, your job now is to find out where Kanno is hiding. Don't think about the rest, just concentrate on doing this." "I think so too." "Just as long as you understand." Hisuzuka extinguished the second cigarette, and this time he extinguished it very simply. Another detective came and called Hisuzuka.The team leader looked at the organization department, nodded to him and left. Ah Cheng remembered that incident when he was watching TV in a daze.Originally, I turned on the TV to watch a late-night show with comedians, but the previous professional baseball game seemed to be extended, so I am still reporting the news. Maybe he could learn about Changfeng Shigeki and Kuaier, he thought.However, there is no follow-up report in this regard. The special unit in the program is to report on hotels and restaurants that cannot continue to operate due to the recession. When seeing this special report, something flashed in Ah Cheng's mind. "There are some closed homestays. I always take girls there." He remembered Kuai'er's weird smile. By the way, he did mention the homestay—— It was about three months ago.As usual, Dun also borrowed his car.He knew that they went fishing again, but Ah Cheng didn't go with them at that time. When returning the car, Ah Cheng asked where they went.So he answered quickly. "Where do you think we went? It's Shinshu." "Xinzhou?" "The horse that Atsuya kidnapped said he was going for a drive, so we switched on and off, and then went straight to the Shin-Etsu Road. I don't know where it is, but it's Shinshu anyway. Let's get off the expressway at any place and drive into After walking down the mountain road, the woman started screaming. Because it was too noisy, I threatened her with a knife." The two of them seemed to be looking for a place where they could rape the girl, so they wandered around the mountain roads. Not long after, they found a good place to indulge their animal desires, and that was the closed B&B. "We broke the glass window and climbed in from there. It may have just closed down, so the inside is not completely deserted, and the bed is still usable. Atsuya and I said that if something happens in the future, we will hide here." Ah Cheng didn't pay special attention at that time, he was used to the bold actions of the two of them, so no matter how ridiculous things he heard, he would not have any special impression. But now, the memory of that time makes Ah Cheng tremble with fear. That's right, Kuai'er must have gone to that homestay, he must be hiding there—— Ah Cheng didn't know the location, and they didn't give the detailed place name, but it was indeed in Nagano Prefecture. A homestay in Nagano Prefecture that has just closed down for a long time——should this kind of information be enough?If you can know this information, you should be able to find Kuaier with a little more investigation. Should I tell the criminal police outside the house?But Ash hesitated.He remembered the conversation between himself and his father. Dun Ye and Kuai'er had to pretend not to know what kind of activities they had done before.So he can't know that they raped girls in the closed homestay, and that he once borrowed their car to let them do these things. But don't tell anyone, right?Who should I tell? Ah Cheng looked at his mobile phone, and then remembered that he could not use this phone.
