Kichijoji Station!

As the only place Arata must pass when going home every day, it is a perfect place for the experiment.

Looking at the mobile phone in his hand that originally belonged to Shizuka Takamatsu, a trace of hesitation flashed through Arata's mind.

It would be troublesome if the police were attracted. However, it was a risk that Arata could not bear.

It is said that the U.S. intelligence agency can locate the mobile phone when it is turned off. However, judging from the situation these days, the Metropolitan Police Department does not seem to have such powerful tracking technology. However, Arata believes that people have noticed the clue of the mobile phone.

Ichiro will never miss an opportunity. As for the other group of people... they can only try their luck.

When Arata turned on the phone, he first wiped off the fingerprints, then avoided the camera and hid the phone behind a vending machine outside the restroom outside the station. Then, he went to find a coffee shop across the street.

I went to the store and ordered a cup of milk tea. While doing the homework assigned by Mr. Ito, I secretly observed the movements on the other side.

In movies, the bad guys always seem to arrive at the scene one step ahead of the police. Today's situation seems to be similar. Less than an hour after the phone was turned on, a black business car suddenly stopped in front of the station, and then from

A few men with hurried expressions got out of the car. From their looks, it was obvious that they were here to find someone.

"Sure enough, someone is looking for Miss Shizuka!"

When Arata saw this, he immediately packed up his things, put the money under the cup and walked out of the cafe. He walked through the crowd, just like an ordinary middle school student going home after school, slowly

Walk into the station and follow these people.

Those people were looking around anxiously. When Arata saw one of them ordering the others to split up, he walked towards the other party silently.

"I'm really sorry, we haven't found any trace of the girl yet, but the mobile phone signal did come from here. Eh...that policeman? We have been following him secretly these past few days, and we didn't find him meeting the girl...

"

Arata vaguely heard this conversation, and when he walked past the other party, he couldn't help but feel chills running down his spine.

"The policeman?"

"Odou-san?"

…

Xintai felt nervous in his heart. He had never imagined that while he was seducing the other party, the other party had already discovered him.

Knowing that the situation was not good, Arata quickly walked a few steps. Then he merged into the crowd. He looked at the man who was talking on the phone, quietly took out his mobile phone, and pretended to take a selfie and took a picture of the man behind him.

Guy.

Just when Arata had just passed the turnstile at the station, a siren suddenly sounded behind him. The group became even more panicked after hearing it, but they quickly left the station.

Arata was still in shock at this time. He got on the train bound for Ogikubo, constantly thinking about how the other party knew his father. Although Arata felt that there was no flaw in him, he

Still feel very worried.

…

When the police car whistled all the way to Kichijoji Station, Ichiro and Doihara got out of the car in a hurry, and then rushed into the station with others.

"Spread out, look around, and be sure to find the source of the signal!"

"Hey!"

After hearing Ichiro's order, the police officers from the Musashino Police Station who came to support dispersed and began to search everywhere. At this moment, Ichiro noticed that a familiar figure seemed to be passing by him.

"Eh?"

The moment Ichiro turned around, the familiar feeling suddenly disappeared, replaced by the passengers walking hurriedly behind him. Seeing Ichiro acting so abnormally, Doihara asked quickly:

"What's wrong?"

"Ah, it's okay, senior, there was someone passing by just now, I think I've seen him somewhere!"

"Have you met? Maybe it's someone you know! Forget it, let's find that girl first!"

Doihara patted Ichiro on the shoulder, and the two immediately separated and walked in different directions. Seeing that they could not find any trace of the other party, Ichiro dialed Takamatsu Shizuka's mobile phone number in desperation.

"~~~~"

A musical ringtone rang, and Ichiro vaguely heard it as if it was coming from behind. He stopped and then turned around uncertainly. He closed his eyes and silently felt the source of the ringtone.

Through the noisy flow of people, a faint piece of music reached Ichiro's ears. Ichiro tried hard to identify the direction from which the sound came. Then he began to run quickly in the direction he came from.

"Here! Senior..."

"What?"

When Ichiro ran outside the station, he was surprised to find that the sound came from behind a vending machine. He immediately looked around him alertly. Beside the road, a black business car slowly raised its window. But Ichiro

But didn't notice this.

Doihara bent down, reached into the back of the vending machine, and then took out a mobile phone with an incoming call notification flashing on it.

"What a smart girl? She fooled us!"

"Don't be discouraged, senior! This incident can't be completely considered a bad thing. It may mean that Shizuka Takamatsu is still here!"

"Stay here? Leave her alone?"

"Who knows? Isn't it weirder that this girl dropped out of Keio and transferred to Takarazuka Music School? If her father doesn't like her, it's not impossible to leave her alone to divert attention!"

"What a scumbag! How could there be such parents?"

"Who can say clearly about this kind of thing?"

…

After a vigorous search, they only found a discarded mobile phone. Seeing that the last clue in their hands seemed to be broken, Ichiro and Doihara's mood was naturally not much better.

"It seems that we have to find a new direction of investigation!"

"You mean the plaza win?"

"Yes, as the president of a company, I really can't figure out why he would kill his subordinates!"

"If you say so!"

"Senior, tell me... could it be that there was something wrong with Plaza Win's management that allowed Jun Baba to get hold of Takamatsu Ken, forcing Takamatsu Ken to kill him!"

It sounds like there is indeed a certain possibility in this guess. After all, the biggest connection between the deceased and the suspect is the company Plaza Win. However, Ichiko, who is good at investigating criminal cases, is not familiar with this kind of economic case.

.If it is really due to financial disputes, Ichiro and Doihara alone would not be able to figure it out.

"This kind of thing should be left to the police department to worry about! Anyway, we found Takamatsu Shizuka's mobile phone, so it's not like we found nothing..."

Doihara comforted Ichiro and returned to the car together, and the mobile phone was also brought into the car. However, what Ichiro and Doihara did not expect was that at this moment, there was another group of people who were also watching.
