"First of all, thank you very much for attending this press conference......

Sayuri's feet were on the gold-rimmed red carpet, and her proud posture suddenly showed grace and luxury, holding the microphone in both hands and began to speak. At this time, the spotlight and the focus of the audience were all focused on Sayuri's body, and the sound of photos and admiration went hand in hand with her speech.

The spotlight that hit her turned black.

Hoshino Satsuki randomly found a seat in the dark and sat down, and after looking at the venue for a few minutes, he began to feel a little sleepy, and his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't open his eyes. He leaned back in his chair and dozed off.

"Hey. Satsuki! Satsuki! ”

I don't know how long later, I heard someone calling her, opened her hazy eyes, and rubbed it vigorously, trying to see the person in front of her clearly.

Sayuri said with concern, "Don't sleep, go home." ”

"Huh? Is it over? ”

"Yes, it's twelve o'clock now. It was supposed to end at half past ten, and everyone left. I chatted with the staff for a while. It's time to get cold here......"

Gao Yue was startled and looked back suddenly. Sure enough, the scene was in addition to himself and Sayuri. All of them were gone, and the remaining pits and confetti looked like a mess.

……

At 2:11 a.m., a loud shout was heard at the Hoshino Mansion.

Satsuki pouted, the quilt in her hand went past her nose, and her eyes stared blankly at the ceiling.

"Damn! Really, I can't sleep anymore. ”

I didn't sleep all night, which made Gao Yue have heavy dark circles under her eyes. When I woke up the next morning, I was sleepy.

At this time, Gao Yue was in a trance on his desk, and his eyes were foggy. Every now and then, I doze off and then wake up suddenly.

Miwako Sato looked at her at the workstation with a worried expression: "Satsuki, you won't stay up late last night, right?" Why are you so sleepy? ”

"I ...... Actually......" She feels powerless to even speak now.

"You can't look like this."

encountered this kind of thing as soon as he took office, and even Gao Yue herself felt very embarrassed. She paused and said, "I'll go find something to do, I heard that there are a lot of cases that have not been concluded before, I will check it out." ”

"Okay then." Miwako Sato replied softly.

The Metropolitan Police Department's database is full of cases that have not been solved for many years. For example, there were bomb incidents in which a trace of clues was found before, and there were some incidents that could not be understood by common sense. As long as it is similar, it will be set as an unsolved case, and the case record information will be placed in the database. If you go back in time, there is half a century ago.

Therefore, the database is located in the least noticeable corner of the Metropolitan Police Department, and only a few police officers usually go in occasionally to get something. If it's time to get off the job, it's locked by a dedicated manager. It can be said to be the quietest place in the Metropolitan Police Department.

Gao Yue stood between two tall bookshelves, and the mountain of copywriting alone buried her thin body.

"How do you check this......" she yawned.

Looking at the dense pile of various documents, she only felt a headache. If it sounds good, she is here to find some strange cases, and if it is not good, she is lazy.

She casually took a stack from the shelf and looked at her watch. There is still an hour left until the end of work in the evening.

Her eyes rolled and she said to herself, "It's not good, but I'll sleep for a while." ”

At some point, Tokyo's blue sky turned orange, and the streets began to hear the sound of students leaving school.

At the same time, the civilian staff and writers of the Metropolitan Police Department have already left work. The officer who guarded the keys to each room began to inspect the rooms one by one, then closed and locked the doors.

As he approached the reference room, he tugged down the door and shouted inside, "Is there anyone else in there?" ”

The vast space was bottomless, and only the echoes of the police officer himself could be heard.

He didn't think about it that much, because this place checked itself every day, and every day he went to ask about it, it had always been the current situation. So he put the key of the keychain right, put it into the lock hole and twisted it a few times and left.
