The lingering prestige of summer has not yet faded, and at dusk, there is a slight warm rain in an instant.Sweat dripped from the pedestrian's neck.People fled into the building.The air is filled with humidity, heat, and the smell of body that seems to have been mixed in a cauldron.People, people, people, all are the stench of human beings, like the smell of beasts that linger even after being perfumed.The high-frequency waves made the eardrums buzz.Why do people gather together when there is nothing important to do, and they can still bear the smell? Holding the Dumbo elephant that his wife asked to buy in one hand, Amagi Yu forced himself out of the Ayukawa Department Store against the flow of people, walked straight to the Civic parked by the side of the road, and opened the door of the passenger seat.Looking sideways, the rain-soaked engine hood is as shiny as new.I've just waxed carefully this morning, and I'm exhausted, and my rare rest day is wasted on this kind of thing.

Just as Asakaro was putting all the bought things on the passenger seat, there was a sharp shout suddenly, as if the man's neck was caught by the claws of a bird of prey. "Let me get in the car, hurry up." There was an indescribable meaning in his tone.Turning around, I saw a beautiful woman about 30 years old desperately asking him for help.She has huge eyes, nose and mouth, and her appearance is very similar to that of Kyobaiko when she was young. "Hurry up, it will be bad if you don't catch up with that, that car." The strange woman didn't give Tiancheng any time to answer, so she pushed Tiancheng away with her hands, got into the car, and sat in the passenger seat.Is this a new way of prostitution on the street?Amagi thought.The woman was wearing a flashy leopard print suit, but it was too early now.Leaving aside these strange behaviors above, the strange fragrance emanating from the woman's body gradually diffused into the car.It was just cleaned up this morning.

"That car, that car, catch up with the car in front!" Just when Amagi was about to move his face closer and complain a few words, the strange woman suddenly pointed desperately at the opposite side of the windshield and yelled at the tip of his nose.I saw a gorgeous ruby ​​the size of a thumb on his index finger.Not only his nose, but seeing that the huge red lips were about to bite his cheek and chin, Amagi subconsciously retracted his face. Wait a minute, I seem to have seen such a distinctive face somewhere before.Where is it, where is it?Although he doesn't like to deal with people, but because of his profession, Tiancheng can be said to have a photographic memory for human faces, where, where did he see them.Amagi felt a lump in his throat, so he closed his eyes and tried to figure out the answer.Seeing his relaxed appearance, the strange woman became more and more anxious, and even started to make a scene.What's even more unreasonable is that he kicked the dashboard of the car with a high heel.

"Hurry up! Do you know what will happen if you can't catch up with the car in front? That's a true killer." At the same time, a shout of "Teacher!" came from the entrance of the department store decorated with "Autumn Sale" gold and silver satin. Following the sound, a young man in his early twenties was running towards this side.Because of the many boxes in his arms, his steps are like cartoons, a little messy. "Please wait a moment, don't abandon me, Teacher A." The boy shouted. This shout and the address of "Maguro KILLER" finally made Amagi realize that the thirty-five or six-year-old woman in front of his eyes was An Yun Azi.

Ako Anyun is a famous female mystery writer living in this city of Mahoro, and her works are all best-selling books.Even people like Amagi who have only read "CALLING" - the work of Kimura Yoshiichi, who became famous for the murder incident - are not very familiar with this popular writer, but at least they know her name, A child is like this a famous person.One day a week, he has his own column on the most popular local program "Shenhoro Special News Report". His name and distinctive appearance are well known to every household in Zhenhoro City.Moreover, many books use Mahoro City as the stage of the story, which seems to have contributed to the increase in tourists in recent years.On the street, you can often find buses whizzing along the route where the murder occurred in Dark Cloud A.In addition, she also worked hard to pay local taxes, and she was respected as a celebrity in Mahoro City at a young age.

Such a dark cloud son is not limited to writing, but also likes to play the role of detective himself.There are rumors that it seems that several difficult cases that happened in the past were perfectly solved by Mr. A just like the protagonist in his book.Sometimes he also talked about his achievements with a smile on his face on TV programs.But according to the words of my predecessors, most of the deeds should not be trusted.It's just that even though A Zi is involved in the incident, she still has a clear understanding of her position as an ordinary citizen, and at the same time assists the authorities to handle the case very well, unlike the detectives in her works who treat others as fools and act beyond their authority at will.Therefore, the help from the upper management is quite welcome.Perhaps it also has a profound meaning of propaganda, and the higher-ups have issued an order to treat son A as the director of 365 days rather than one day.

However, she is not on duty now, so she has no obligation to entertain her.Although I intend to let the situation develop like this, but if it is really a real KILLER, it will be a different matter.Looking at the direction pointed by Mr. A's finger, only the sunset glow in late autumn radiates light as if it is about to burn the sky. "Ahhh, I'm gone. How are you going to deal with the aftermath!" A son stared at Tiancheng remorsefully, his eyes were about to shoot out murderous rays full of hatred. "The other party is a real KILLER. Such a good opportunity is rare. Isn't it the duty of citizens to assist me in arresting the vicious criminals who threaten the city?"

As expected of a person who is ushering in the highest peak of his life, his momentum is frightening.Also, don't bring your face so close, okay... Amagi leaned back as if apologizing. "Teacher, have you caught Mahoro Killer yet?" The boy seemed to have only heard the second half of A's previous words, so he asked this question.In this way, he seems to be a boy named Mizuki who often serves as an assistant and sits with son A on TV shows.It is said that the boy is over twenty years old and has grown into a great adult, but Azi is still used to calling him a boy because of his own interests.He has a slender body but looks surprisingly energetic, giving him the feeling of a member of the literary club who likes sports. Compared with Amagi, who is a member of the autistic sports department, it is like the positive and negative sides of a coin.

"That's right." Son A complained, "It was this man who let him go under his nose." "Is this the man?" Both master and servant stared at Tiancheng in unison.So please don't stare at me suddenly, both of you, Amagi couldn't help lowering his head. "How do you plan to deal with the aftermath?" As he spoke, A's expression suddenly changed. "Ah, I've seen you... So that's how it is. You're a detective from Division One. It's useless to hide it, but I remember it clearly." Did you notice it?Why can a person remember what an outsider who has nothing to do with him looks like, Amagi thought to himself.

"Remember that you sat in the corner during the meeting. In order to hide your presence, you deliberately reduced your presence, which made my impression of you even deeper." Like the detectives in his works, Azi babbles triumphantly and doesactically. "Occasionally, there are people like you who don't like to deal with people. They don't know why they want to become a criminal police officer. You are a typical example. You don't want to delve into other people's private affairs, and you don't want to be explored by others. There will be rejection in your body at any time. It’s a signal. Thank you for continuing to work as a detective until now.”

Meddle in other people's business, Amagi thought, really want to knock her to the ground.However, she is an important guest to the superior, and she is the director of the 365th day anyway.And now that his identity has been exposed, if he foolishly makes her angry... "Speaking of which, as a criminal, you neglected your duties and allowed Maguro KILLER to escape. I hope you can explain to me the reason for this." This is the feeling that Tiancheng and Anyun Azi will give people at the beginning.
