"Tomosaka-sensei, can you tell us about your teaching assistant Ono?"

Sitting in the transfer room of the Metropolitan Police Department, Shuichi Hayashi asked Mr. Tomosaka about his assistant teacher Jun Ono. So far, the case has begun to lead to a series of clues around Mr. Tomosaka. Although the suspicion of Mr. Tomosaka cannot be completely ruled out now, the people close to Mr. Tomosaka will be the focus of Lin Xiuyi's investigation.

"You mean Ono-kun, this kid is not bad in nature, but he is always unlucky. However, he still has some advantages, that is, no matter how difficult things he believes are, he still has to realize his dreams. To be honest, at this point, even I don't think he can compare?"

Mr. Tomosaka took a sip of the hot tea in the cup, and then answered the question raised by Lin Xiuyi seriously.

"You think so highly of him!"

Lin Xiuyi asked with some surprise.

After returning from Suruga-juku, Shuichi Hayashi and Miki immediately conducted a background check on Jun Ono, the assistant teacher of Tomosaka-sensei, and soon discovered this guy's extraordinary background.

According to the Metropolitan Police Department, Jun Ono grew up in an orphanage, and he was not adopted by any family because he had a mild form of bipolar disorder, until he was in high school, when Jun Ono was sent to a reformatory for a crime of assault and several thefts after being placed in a security camp (security is a legal term, that is, a preventive punishment other than the criminal law), and since he was not yet 20 years old at the time of the crime, he was exempted from punishment under the criminal law, and therefore did not suffer from prison.

"Although Ono-kun sometimes behaves differently than ordinary people, he is actually a very simple child at heart. During my time at the reformatory home, Ono-kun met me, and from then on, he made it his goal to become a teacher, and over the years, I have witnessed first-hand how Ono-kun managed to get the required credits and successfully obtain a diploma in education. However, in his experience, it would have been difficult to become a teacher in a school, so after I left Morimura Middle School, I recruited him as my teaching assistant......"

Although Tomosaka-sensei's tone was flat, Lin Shuichi really didn't expect that there was such a deep connection between Jun Ono and Sousuke Tomosaka. It sounds like Sousuke Tomosaka is very familiar with Jun Ono's personality and temperament.

But Lin Xiuyi didn't think so, this Ono Jun himself has bipolar disorder, and at the same time, he has a history of theft. This is very consistent with Lin Xiuyi's guess about the suspect. More importantly, Jun Ono, as Sousuke Tomosaka's teaching assistant, can enter and exit Sousuke Tomosaka's office at any time, and Sosuke Tomosaka trusts Jun Ono so much, so it is naturally very likely that Jun Ono will be invited to his home as a guest. This would explain why the deceased's personal belongings were found in Sousuke Tomosaka's home and office.

"Mr. Tomosaka, according to the information from our investigation, Ono-kun voluntarily submitted his resignation to Suruga Juku before you were taken away, what is the reason for this?"

Lin Shuichi compared the information he got from Suruga Juku, and soon discovered many doubts about Ono Jun. Among them, this resignation time made Lin Xiuyi feel very concerned.

"Ono couldn't be promoted to an instructor at Suruga-juku, so I recommended him to try his luck at some of the other small training institutions. This is a little bit of guidance from me, oh yes, I promised him to give him the handouts, but before I could fulfill my promise, you arrested him......"

Lin Xiuyi could hear the dissatisfaction in Tomosaka Sousuke's tone, but the reason why he was delaying the release of Tomosaka Sosuke now was actually due to many considerations. From now on, it seems that the appearance of all the evidence is inextricably linked to Mr. Tomosaka. This also means that the real suspect is likely to be someone close to Sosuke Tomosaka, and Sosuke Tomosaka is likely to be a trick thrown by the suspect to obstruct the police investigation. So not only to promote the investigation of the case, but also to protect the personal safety of Sousuke Tomosaka, Lin Shuichi still can't release Sousuke Tomosaka in a short period of time.

"Mr. Tomosaka, please rest assured, when there is new progress in this case, we will definitely release you immediately. Now, I would like to ask you to bear with me a little more!"

……

After leaving the transfer room, Lin Xiu went straight back to the Special Search Department. Because of the new clue of Ono-kun in the case, it is no longer possible to deal with the shortage of manpower by relying on Miki alone, so Lin Xiuyi has to rearrange the investigation.

Until now, Hanagata and Aizawa of the Special Search Department had mainly focused their work on co-investigation with local branches, which proved to be not an effective method. So Lin Xiuyi planned to temporarily free the two of them from this ineffective investigation and do some more important work. Although this is a bit unsatisfactory to the Kuwashima Police Department, as long as the case is solved, the pressure on the Kuwashima Police Department will be much less.

"Police, we found the trace of Jun Ono, who had spent his credit card at a café near Kichijoji Station in Musashino City a few days ago...... So, this person should not have left Tokyo yet. ”

Miki didn't wait for Lin Xiu to sit down, and reported to him impatiently. Lin Xiu nodded, and then beckoned Aizawa and Hanagata to sit across from him.

"Now we have identified a number of targets related to this case, as well as some isolated leads. But one of the biggest problems we have is that we can't find the relationship between these things. So I'd like to give you another division of work and make it clear what we're going to do next. ”

As soon as Lin Xiu finished speaking, he first looked at Miki, and then said to her:

"Miki, now in addition to continuing to track down Jun Ono's whereabouts, you also have to verify how the relationship between Jun Ono and Sousuke Tomosaka is, and whether it is really as harmonious as he said. ”

"Hey! I see!"

After receiving Miki's affirmative reply, Lin Shuichi looked at Aizawa and Hanagata again, and he first instructed Hanagata:

"Hanagata, you know, now little girls like those things on the Internet, I have a guess, do you think there will be any connection between Ninomiya Arisa and Yano Tomomi?"

"I see, you mean let me investigate their social networks!"

Lin Xiu nodded, and finally looked at Aizawa.

"Aizawa-kun, the responsibility of finding Ono's whereabouts is on you!"

Aizawa bowed his head to Lin Xiuyi without hesitation and accepted the task assigned by Lin Xiuyi.
