"Although Miss Endo didn't see the prisoner, it is likely that the prisoner who injured Miss Mizutani was the same person. Matsuda was talking in the conference room of the first search class, and as a police officer who had direct contact with the second victim last night, he certainly needed to brief the heads of the three departments of violent crime on the situation: "So I think it is possible to investigate these two attacks together." ”

It's actually just the Twilight Police Department and his assistants, the Police Department Shiratori, and the Police Department Sato, who are all listening intently to Matsuda's report.

"Both attacks took place at night, four days apart. Matsuda pointed to the map on the table: "I have marked both places, but not in one, and I can't determine the range of the prisoner's activities at this time." As for Officer Takagi, I asked him to investigate what the two victims had in common. Judging from the superficial intelligence, they are all dressed in fashion, driving alone, and young women have three things in common. At least last night, Miss Endo said that she didn't know the first victim, Miss Mizutani. ”

"If this is a series of attacks, then there is no way to determine the next possible victim based on these three points alone, and the number of people with these three characteristics in Tokyo is too large to be effectively protected, so we can only apply for the local police stations to strengthen night patrols while investigating." Matsuda concluded.

"In other words, there is no countermeasure yet?" "I'll go to the management officer Matsumoto, and we may go to a press conference together later, Shiratori, you can familiarize yourself with the information compiled by Matsuda first, and you will answer the reporter's questions later." Matsuda, you cooperate with Sato to continue the investigation, I don't want to see a third incident of injury. ”

"Ha, that's not a question of whether you want to or not. Matsuda watched Twilight and Shiratori leave dissatisfied: "What! ”

"Stop complaining. Sato took the file and tapped it on Matsuda's head: "What should we do next?" ”

"Go find your best friend. Matsuda touched his head: "It would be nice if she could find the license plate number of the prisoner's car when Mizutani was attacked." ”

"Okay. Sato was resolute and immediately opened the door to find Yumi.

Outside the door, Yue Shui was waiting for a paper cup, and when he saw Sato open the door, he looked at her suspiciously: "You two are going to sneak out again? Xiaosheng will definitely not let you go out privately during working hours again." ”

"What?" Sato looked at Yue Sui with a headache, "What's going on in your head? I'm going to the Ministry of Transportation." ”

"No matter where you go, Xiaosheng will supervise. "Yue Shui shows no weakness.

"Huh, then you two go. Matsuda yawned: "I just made up for sleep, I stayed up late last night to go to bed." ”

Ha Sato and Koshisui looked at Matsuda together.

One second, two seconds, three seconds Matsuda suddenly got up: "Okay, I'll go." I'll go, I'll go. ”

"Yo? "Yumi is patrolling the streets, and when she receives a call from Sato, she rushes back immediately, so there are not many opportunities to go on patrol so justifiably. Especially, as soon as he came back, he saw that Matsuda was already waiting there, and opened his mouth to laugh at him.

"Don't make a fuss, get down to business. Matsuda's head started to hurt again. He already clearly felt that Yumi's aura was not very good and blended into the gap between Sato and Koshisui.

"I know it. Yumi walked to the door of the office of the Traffic Division of the Ministry of Transportation and said to Matsuda, "Matsuda has never come to the Traffic Division to see me, and sure enough, something bad happened before he remembered me." ”

"Spare me. Matsuda looked left and right: "It would be nice if I could remember how to get to the search lesson, who built the Metropolitan Police Department so big." ”

"Minister Matsumoto Inspector, the students came to visit for official business. Koshisui saw that Yumi still had a tendency to talk about family life, and immediately interrupted.

"Really?" Yumi said angrily, "Is that what you want me to do?"

"Yumi, hurry up and go in and help us see if there's anything we need. Sato nudged Yumi and told her to open the door quickly.

"Really. Yumi shook her head, looking helpless: "The juniors of your search lesson are not cute at all." ”

Yumi found someone she knew and mobilized the video of that night, and then told Matsuda a very bad news: "There was a little problem with the camera at that intersection, and it was still under maintenance that day, and it was not used, so there was no video data left." ”

"Really?" Matsuda didn't have a disappointed expression, and took out the map: "According to what the victim Mizutani said, her driving route that night is like this, and she has to pass through these three intersections before this intersection, can you help you turn out the video of these three intersections?"

"Huh!?" Yumi glanced at Matsuda as a monster, "It's really well prepared, but don't use this kind of commanding tone next time." It's really unpleasant for people to listen to, don't look like you know everything, okay?"

"It's a fact, I'm completely hopeless about the quality of the police at the Metropolitan Police Department. What else do you want me to say?" Matsuda was speechless. On the roadway of Tokyo, the driver can drive away after getting down and injuring others, and now it is almost five days before the car can be locked.

"At the very least, huh, beg me. Yumi thought about it: "Be sincere, don't be perfunctory." ”

"Yes, Yes, Her Majesty will help the little ones. Matsuda came casually.

Obviously, it was said that it couldn't be perfunctory, but Yumi was said by Matsuda like this, and happily went to mobilize the images of those intersections.

After backing up the video data that Matsuda needed, he was about to leave, but Yumi pulled him back.

"Hey, I heard you're dealing with a perverted demon who specializes in attacking beautiful girls?" Yumi asked Matsuda in a whisper.

"Can you not spread gossip?" Matsuda looked at Yumi suspiciously, speculating that the rumors of this perverted demon were processed by Mei's own art.

"What, it looks like I'm gossiping. After Yumi complained, her eyes immediately narrowed: "I heard that the victims are all 101 babes, can I take a look at them next time they come to make a record?" That kind of dress is very popular, but it's a pity that we are not allowed to dress up like that, it's really pitiful~~ Hey! Why are you all gone!?"

"See you soon, Your Majesty. Matsuda didn't wave his hand back: "Don't gossip, aren't you the gossip queen of the Metropolitan Police Department?"

"Have you refreshed yourself in the afternoon?" "Twilight glanced at the people who had been left behind for overtime. The three members of the leadership team, Shiratori and Sato, as well as the backbone Matsuda, plus the miscellaneous servant Takagi Chiba.

The others were very energetic, but only Matsuda leaned on the table and complained in a low voice: "What the hell, I knew that the prisoner was active at night, and now I have pitted myself." ”

"Matsuda, are you very dissatisfied?" Shiratori will not miss a single opportunity to hit Matsuda in front of Sato.

"No, I am very satisfied with the reasonable arrangement of the superiors. Matsuda opened one eye and looked at Shiratori: "As soon as there is a stir, our three giants are here, don't you think there is a little bit of work underneath? There are only three people, two of whom are still novices." ”

Ahem. Shiratori was silent.

"Hey, Matsuda, tell me what's new in the afternoon. Twilight saw that the scene was cold, and hurried to save the scene.

"The vehicle problem has been officially handed over to the traffic section in the afternoon, and they will investigate, and judging from the video, the prisoner is very familiar with the intersection that attacked Mizutani. At least he understands that something is wrong with the cameras there. Matsuda closed his eyes and simulated the scene of the intersection in his mind: "I'm 80% sure that it's his range of activity." Even if he didn't live nearby, that intersection was the way home for him. ”

"What?" Twilight and Shiratori looked at Matsuda in surprise, "Are you sure?" If that's the case, then the scope of targeting the prisoner will be greatly reduced.

According to Mizutani, she passed there on a whim. And there is no trace of being tracked in the video footage near the extraction, so it should be a chance encounter. Matsuda closed his eyes, leaned on the table and continued, "So my reasoning is correct, then the prisoner has been in contact with Mizutani, and has a serious job, and he leaves work a little late. The duty station is east of the intersection and the residential address is west of the intersection. ”

"Oh?" Twilight thought for a moment, "So he probably passes through that intersection every day?"

"Of course, uh!?" Matsuda straightened up in surprise and looked at Twilight, "You're not going to arrange for someone to monitor over there, are you?"

"No, that's the only way we can do it. Twilight admits that she can only do some stupid work that doesn't make good grades: "Let's get a shift now." ”

"I'll go~~" Matsuda shook his head.

"Okay, it's rare for you to take the initiative to say it, so I'll let you go first. Twilight was glad that Matsuda had such an awareness.

And the highly conscious Matsuda-kun responded by rolling his eyes: "I'll go!"

While Matsuda and the others were stupidly looking for that one in 10,000 chance, the traffic division also carried out an orderly investigation, quickly determined the prisoner's car model, and then fell into an endless wait. With so much traffic throughout Tokyo, and the number of vehicles coming in and out every day, they need time.

And with Matsumoto holding a press conference with Twilight Shiratori, this so-called "continuous attack on women" was also hyped by the media, which made the young women dressed as 101 babes scared. Of course, there are some new humans who don't like to watch the news and don't know anything about it, so they still go their own way.

It wasn't until ten days later, two weeks after the attack on Mizutani, that the third "attack" occurred.
