Chapter Twenty-Six: New Clues

Shunhei Kusanagi and Kaoru Utsumi sit in the reception room of the Kageyama Group, and the receptionist has already gone to inform Kageyama that they only need to wait a few minutes to see each other.

Kaoru Utsumi asked, "Kusanagi-senpai, do you really think the clue to this case will be on that painting?" ”

Kusanagi nodded and said, "I reviewed the entire case and found that the only clue we missed now was the painting. It may not have anything to do with this case, but it is also possible that this painting is the breakthrough point of this case, so we have to visit it anyway. ”

As soon as Kusanagi's words fell, Toru Kageyama opened the door and walked in. He still looks like a straight suit, his hair is meticulously combed, and there is an incomprehensible smile on his handsome face.

Kageyama walked over generously, sat down opposite Kusanagi and the Inland Sea, and said, "Welcome to the two police detectives, I'm Kageyama Toru, the CEO of Kageyama Group, is there anything I can help with?" ”

Kaoru Utsumi said, "I'm Kaoru Utsumi from the Koto Police Station, and this is Officer Toshihei Kusanagi of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. We were recently investigating a case in which there was a painting that could be the key piece of evidence, the one that Mr. Kageyama had previously purchased at a private auction for 15 million. ”

Kageyama smiled and said, "Yes, it's a painting that I like very much, and the artist who painted this painting is also highly accomplished. What, the two want to take it away? ”

"We don't need to take it away, we just need to take a look and take a picture," Kusanagi said. ”

Kageyama nodded and said, "If it's just like that, it shouldn't be a problem. Please wait a minute, I'm going to get the paintings from my collection. ”

About five minutes after Kageyama got up and left the room, he walked into the room with a framed oil painting.

"I think that's what you're talking about."

Kageyama placed the painting on the table.

Kusanagi and Utsumi looked towards the painting together, and when they saw the appearance of the girl in the painting, their expressions changed instantly.

Then the two looked at each other and nodded.

"Mr. Kageyama, can we take a picture?" Kusanagi asked.

"Feel free." Kageyama said unhurriedly.

The two left after taking pictures.

Kageyama picked up the painting and stared at the girl in the painting quietly, with an unpredictable look on his face.

It took more than an hour for Araki Haku to finally assemble the computer.

It turns out that even a computer idiot can assemble a computer as long as he looks at the manual.

Plugging in the plug and watching the host start to run, as well as the manufacturer's information that popped up on the display, Araki Shiro finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He smiled and said to Yuko, who was sitting on the bed reading a book, "Yuko, the computer is assembled!" ”

Yuko Araki was still angry when she came back, but after so long, her anger has subsided. When she heard the news that the computer was assembled, she immediately jumped out of bed.

"Is it ready for use?" Yuko Araki asked curiously as she ran behind Araki Haku.

"You have to install a system."

Araki Shiro put the disc in his hand into the optical drive.

Installing the system is much simpler than installing a computer, Araki Bai installs the system according to the prompts of system installation, divides the hard disk, and the system is installed quickly.

Long before buying a computer, Araki Haku had already called the telecommunications company to arrange a broadband service for his family, so Yuko's room was already equipped with a modem. Araki Bai connected the network cable to the modem, dialed up, and the computer was smoothly connected to the network.

He tried to click on the Internet icon and found that the website was already accessible, which meant that the computer had been completely installed.

Araki Bai turned back to his sister and smiled, "I can already surf the Internet!" ”

Yuko Araki happily hugged his neck, offered a kiss and said, "Brother is amazing!" ”

Araki Bai said: "The computer is in your room, but you can't be too addicted, go to sleep when it's time to sleep, okay?" ”

Araki Yuko nodded, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother, Yuko knows, work and rest are combined!" ”

Araki Bai said: "That's good, it's been a busy day, I'll go take a bath first." ”

Yuko Araki couldn't wait to play with the computer, so she let go of him happily and said, "Good night, brother." ”

Araki Bai waved his hand and said, "Good night." ”

He went to take a shower and then went back to his room.

Araki Haku's room was still as simple as before, he was used to a simple life, and he couldn't stand it if he suddenly returned to that kind of luxurious room with a TV and a computer.

Araki Haku's entertainment is also very simple, he likes to draw, so while there is still a little time before going to bed, he takes out the manuscript paper and begins to conceive the second part of the plot of "Samsara".

When Hikaru Suzuki returns to reality, he discovers that reality hasn't been too long, and that he and his parents have indeed died in the train accident. He even saw his body in the sports center, which temporarily served as a funeral home near the train accident. Because Hikaru Suzuki's body has changed beyond recognition, this just covers up the news that he died and came back to life. Hikaru Suzuki retrieved his wallet, keys, and other items from the corpse, and left the gym without changing his face.

Senpai Akane Nishino also appeared at her home, but she was at a funeral when she saw her mother crying next to her body. Akane Nishino accidentally alarmed her mother, and when her mother saw her daughter standing alive in front of her, the poor mother screamed and fainted. Akane Nishino heard a noise in the hallway, and she hurriedly escaped from the courtyard.

The policeman Hojo Xun naturally also found out the news that his real self had died, and he was a little confused, whether he was real or just an illusion now. It was then that he suddenly came into contact with another policeman who had betrayed him and caused him to be killed by the gangsters. Hojo kills the villain who betrayed him with the high-tech pistol he redeemed, and also regains his mission. He wants to be a partner of justice, and he wants to use his strength to fight evil in the city!

The three survivors each started their own adventures, in which the protagonist and the police are fine, only the senior sister is more tragic. With no money and no place to live, she had to sleep in the park and was almost QJ by a homeless man. Luckily, she met Hikaru Suzuki's classmate, and then asked Hikaru Suzuki's address......

As soon as Araki Bai started drawing, he couldn't put away his pen, and when he came back to his senses, he realized that it was past two o'clock in the morning. He stood up and went to bed to the bathroom, he didn't want to fall asleep in English class again today, otherwise Miyuki Teacher might not know how to go crazy.

But as Araki Haku passed through the corridor, he heard a strange sound coming from upstairs.
