"Police Department, the real name of the Ash mentioned by Soichiro Shimizu is Otani, we found out his whereabouts in the employment registration system, Otani is supposed to be working in a small financial company at the moment?"

"Financial company?" Lin Xiuyi asked in surprise.

"It should be the kind of company that deals in loan sharks!" Miki replied to Lin Shuichi.

"Do you know where he lives now?"

"It's been found out in an apartment called Aoyamasai in Yokoyama Town, Hachioji City. ”

"Let's go, go meet this guy, it looks like I'm going to squat at the door of his house tonight!" Lin Xiuyi stood up as soon as he said it, picked up the coat on the back of the chair and put it on his body, Miki saw this, and without saying a word, he packed up his things and kept up with Lin Xiuyi's footsteps.

……

The Tokyo metropolitan area consists of 23 special administrative regions, 26 cities, 5 towns, and 8 villages, and Hachioji City is one of the satellite towns in the Tokyo metropolitan area, along with Musashino City, where Hayashi Shuichi lives. Due to the well-developed transportation network in the Tokyo area, the commute from Kichijoji Station to Sakurada Gate Station is only about 45 minutes. Hachioji City is further from the city center, but if you drive along the Chuo Expressway, it will take just over 40 minutes to get there.

Hayashi Shuichi and Miki drove a Toyota Crown sedan without Metropolitan Police Department livery from the Metropolitan Police Department's underground garage, and because they suspected that Otani might be the suspect who killed Tomomi Yano, Lin Shuichi had to approach the suspect in a cautious way.

As soon as Hayashi Shuichi drove the Toyota Crown along Uchibori Street onto the Central Expressway, Miki got in touch with Koban in Yokoyama on the way and told them to keep an eye on Otani's movements, and once Otani returned to his residence, the police in Yokoyama Koban would immediately notify Miki's side.

About an hour later, Hayashi Shuichi and Miki first rushed to the side of Yokoyama Town, where they met the head of the place, Isobe Masahiro, the head of the inspection department.

"Police department, it's an honor to meet for the first time, and the person in charge here, Isoya Masahiro, the suspect you want us to monitor hasn't appeared yet, is there anything we can do to help you?"

After the other party said this, he respectfully poured tea for Lin Xiuyi and Miki. After Lin Xiuyi thanked him, he said to Isowa Masahiro: "Please don't be too public, we only suspect that Otani is involved in the case we are currently investigating, so we must not be detected by him no matter what, you just need to take us to the place where Otani Zhi lives, and the surveillance matter will be left to us......"

Lin Xiuyi is not afraid of causing any trouble to Yokoyama Town, the main reason is that the police here are ordinary public security police, and they don't have much experience in criminal cases, so it's easy to be self-defeating. Therefore, Lin Xiuyi politely declined the other party's proposal to participate in the action together.

Under the guidance of the Yokoyama Town Koban Police, Hayashi Shuichi's car was parked on the side of the street not far from Aoyamasai, and he could see the apartment where Tomoshi Ohtani lived on the second floor. After Lin Shuichi took over the task of monitoring Otani's movements, the police sent by Yokoyama Town were immediately withdrawn.

As the sun gradually set, the sky gradually darkened. Because of the hurry of coming out, neither of them found much of a chance to have dinner. After consulting with Shuichi Hayashi, Miki bought hot oden and red bean soup for dinner at a nearby convenience store. Because they couldn't leave the person, the two simply ate in the car.

Jade, konjac, kombu, and large root are Hayashi's favorite oden ingredients. If it weren't for the fact that you couldn't drink while you're watching, it would have been perfect.

Mikichi gently picked up a piece of chikuwa fish cake with chopsticks and put it to his mouth, and the steaming fish cake smelled an enticing aroma. Miki blew lightly, then took a bite out of the air. After the warm food was swallowed, the whole person felt more energetic.

"When this case is solved, should we go to Mie Prefecture to see, I know a friend, her home is a farm specializing in raising Matsusaka beef, how about I invite you to eat all-you-can-eat delicious beef at that time?"

While munching on the oden he bought at a convenience store, Lin Shuichi was telling Miki about the indescribably tender texture of Matsusaka beef.

"Police, is this a compensation for eating oden with you on the big night? No matter how good your eloquence is, how can you taste Matsusaka Wagyu beef?" Miki teased Lin Shuichi.

"How can I be a person who doesn't count when I speak, you look at the last time it was so difficult to order the number of Yoriya Hashijiro I invited you to eat, do I still break my promise about Matsusaka beef? But it's really a waste to say, you didn't finish eating last time in Sukiya Hashijiro, I think Mr. Ono must have been very hit at that time!"

"I think it's rude for your boss to eat the rest of my sushi!, actually, I wanted to ask if there was any beer in the restaurant that day, and I think beer and chicken skewers are my favorite ...... right now."

"Stupid, that's the best sushi in Japan, no matter how embarrassing it is, I'll eat it!"

……

Lin Xiuyi and Miki teased each other like this to pass the long staring time. Unfortunately, an hour passed, two hours passed, and until after twelve o'clock in the night, Otani's room was still pitch black.

"No, I'm going to go down and do some fun, do you want to have something to drink, I think I can stop by the convenience store!" As the sleepiness of the long night hits, Miki can't even care about her image and starts yawning.

"Go, by the way, help me bring me a cup of coffee, you'd better come back soon, I still want to find a place nearby to make it convenient!"

Lin Xiuyi endured a strong urge to urinate and said to Miki.

Miki left a smile that I understood, then opened the car door and walked towards the convenience store where I had bought oden earlier.

Ten minutes have passed, and Miki has not come back, so Lin Xiuyi, who really can't help it, can only open the car door and run to the drainage canal on the side of the road to solve the problem. Luckily, it's late at night, so it's not easy to notice. You know, it's not uncommon for drunk guys to urinate on the side of the road on big nights.

……

With the sound of a stream of water, Lin Xiuyi felt that his bladder, which was about to explode, finally relaxed. At this moment, a whistle suddenly came from behind Lin Xiuyi.

"What are you doing?"

Lin Xiuyi suddenly heard a man's voice behind him, he turned around in shame, but he didn't pay attention to it and shouted-Otani Zhi!

When the other party heard Lin Xiuyi's shout, he immediately threw the things in his hand at Lin Xiuyi, Lin Xiuyi hurriedly closed the zipper, and immediately chased after him without even caring about urinating.

"What's the matter, the police department!"

Just a few meters after Lin Xiuyi chased out, Miki, who saw Lin Xiuyi running over, came to the intersection with something almost at the same time. Before she could finish speaking, she immediately understood what was going on.

Miki threw the thing in her hand on the ground, and then rushed over with an arrow step, surpassing Lin Xiuyi's speed in just a few steps. I saw Miki rush up with an arrow step, and then kicked Otani Tomo's back, so that the back hands and feet neatly locked Otani Tomoku to the ground!

"You...... When did you get so good!"

Lin Xiuyi gasped, finally came over, and stretched out his thumb to Miki and said.
