"Good morning, Oyaji!"

"Good morning, Odou-san!"

Early in the morning, when Ryoko and Arata walked out of the room one after another, his father was already sitting at the dining table and starting to eat breakfast.

"Santa, after you finish washing up, come over here! I have something to tell you!"

"Oh...hey!"

When Xintai heard that his father had really picked him up, he knew it must be because of what happened last night. Although he just peeked at his father's work information out of curiosity. But how could ordinary people care about those murders and arson?

Are you interested in love? Therefore, Arata feels that she is probably regarded as a problem boy by her father!

When Shinta finished washing up with an anxious mood and sat down at the dining table, his father looked at him intently. After a long time, his father reprimanded him in a stern tone:

"Hey, Arata-kun! At your age, it's better not to be too curious about some things!"

"I'm really sorry, I won't do such a thing again!"

"If you are really interested in Odousang's job, after you graduate, you can consider working as a police officer! But now, I don't want you to be exposed to these things prematurely! Do you understand?"

"I'm really sorry!"

Early in the morning, they saw Arata actually apologizing to her father. Their mother, Junko, and sister, Ryoko, who didn't know what happened last night, couldn't help but feel strange.

"You are..."

"It's nothing, it's just a chat between father and son!"

"Yes...that's it!"

Arata was a little surprised that his father would actually cover for him, so he hurriedly explained it to Liangzi and his mother. Seeing that both of them refused to say anything, his mother Liangzi naturally stopped asking.

"Oh, by the way, Mom! Arata and I will go to Tokyo later. Could you please call the school for us?"

"Oh... come on, Arata!"

"Hi!"

Arata was having a hard time eating this breakfast. He always raised his head from time to time to observe his father's reaction. Seeing Arata's expression, Ryoko was even more sure that his brother must have done something shameful and was beaten by his father.

Dad knows.

"We're out!"

After breakfast, the three of them said goodbye to their mother at the door! Then they left home together. After saying goodbye to their father at the transit station Ikebukuro Station, Ryoko and Arata took the jr Shonan Shinjuku to Star Ring in Ebisu.

Office.

"Hey...it would be great if our family didn't live in a remote place like Skylark Hill!"

Looking at the bustling Tokyo scene outside the car window, Ryoko couldn't help but sigh with envy. Arata heard this, but he didn't have many thoughts. Because he knew very well that unless he and his sister graduated from college, the financial situation of the Furuta family would be

Nothing can change during this period.

After coming out of Ebisu Station, the two of them inquired all the way to the nearby Star Ring Office. Unexpectedly, when they arrived downstairs, they saw a line of people queuing out of the building where the office was located.

"Excuse me, may I ask...this is..."

"Ah...I'm here for the firm's audition!"

"Audition interview?"

"Yes! It's rare that Star Circle Office holds an audition for boys this time! I asked someone I know to get the registration form early! By the way, you won't be the same!"

The man standing in line couldn't help but his eyes lit up when he saw Liangzi. Arata on the side saw this and felt a little unhappy.

"I didn't expect that there would be so many people!"

"Yes! Star Circle Agency is well-known in the entertainment industry for its female artists! I'm afraid many of you come here for your favorite idols!"

"Wait a minute, Arata! I'm going to make a phone call first!"

Seeing that the competition here was unexpectedly fierce, Liangzi's heart suddenly went cold. She picked up the phone and quietly walked to a place where no one was around. After a while, Arata finally saw her coming back disappointed.

.

"What's wrong?"

"It seems that it was originally decided to be a small-scale selection based on internal recommendations! But the senior management of the club suddenly decided to make it an open one. It seems... the competition this time is really fierce!"

"I've come here anyway, so I have to give it a try!"

Hearing Liangzi's slightly disappointed explanation, Arata comforted her sister. It raised its head and looked around, and found a coffee shop across the road, so it said to Liangzi:

"You don't have to stay with me here, go there and have a cup of milk tea! I may be here for a long time!"

"But... Arata!"

"Don't worry!"

Arata patted his chest and made a reassuring gesture. When Liangzi saw it, a smile finally appeared on his face, and then he turned back step by step and walked towards the human-shaped crosswalk at the intersection.

Seeing that his sister was finally persuaded to leave, Arata breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe it was because he was still young! Even if he stood on tiptoes, Arata still couldn't see the situation in front of him. So he could only silently

As the team moved forward, it took a long time before I saw the staff maintaining order coming to greet me.

…

Almost at the same moment, at the Osaki Police Station in Shinagawa Ward, a banner of "Shinagawa Railway Bridge Murder Investigation Headquarters" was hung outside a conference venue. Seeing the big shot from the Metropolitan Police Department sitting on the rostrum, he first

Seeing this kind of scene for the first time, Ichiro Furuta couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Ichiro, you went home yesterday and had a delicious meal cooked by your wife, right?"

"Hey! Thanks to senior, I can take a rare breath of air!"

"It will be fine if you get used to it in the future. Who told us that we are in search class? The work is always endless! Sigh... I really want to wait until the day of retirement!"

"Senior, you are joking again..."

…

As there were more and more people in the venue, the manager sitting on the stage raised his hand impatiently and looked at the time, then turned on the microphone and said seriously:

"Okay, let's start reporting on the investigation of the Shinagawa Rail Bridge murder case!"

"Hey!"

"Where is the identity of the victim? Have you found out?"

"I'm extremely sorry, my subordinates haven't found out the identity of the deceased yet!"

"What are you doing? The progress of the search has been delayed by you, idiots!"

"I'm really sorry for causing you any trouble!"

"What about the on-site search?"

"Ah...hey!"

Hearing that the manager called on him, Ichiro Furuta quickly stood up!

"Report to the management officer, last night...I..."

When Furuta was nervous, his hands couldn't help but panic. In his anxiety, he even dropped his notebook on the ground!

"I'm so sorry!"

"What are you doing? Make everyone wait for you. Report quickly!"

"Hey! That...according to...according to the traces left at the scene, that..."

Just when Furuta turned to the next page of his notebook, a line of unfamiliar fonts suddenly came into view. When Furuta saw this, he couldn't help but be stunned!

"Crack!"

"You haven't found it yet? Which department are you from?"

Seeing that Furuta's report was a little slow, the management officer immediately slapped the table and got angry.

"Sorry, we've found it! Based on... the tear marks left on the deceased's clothes and the knot marks left on the rope, it is inferred that this is probably not the murderer's first time!"

Furuta Ichiro's mind went blank at this time, and under tension, he couldn't help but read out the few lines of notes written by Arata last night.

"Nani, do you mean a habitual offender? What's the reason?"

"The reason is...the reason is that the murderer was able to successfully tie the hands of the deceased while tearing him apart. If it wasn't for the help of drugs or other tools, then the murderer must have practiced for a long time! The above..."
