Irie's full name is Kakuo Irie, who is forty-six years old and lives with his wife.

Fourteen years ago, he opened a hardware store in Tokyo, and he is a taciturn person who doesn't like to deal with people, but his neighbors praise his sharpening skills as unparalleled in the world.

The tattoo on the shoulder was tattooed 10 years ago and was inspired by the trophy he received after winning a table tennis tournament at a community event.

Matsuda Jinhei interrupted Date with a loud voice and said, "Was the tattoo tattooed ten years ago?" ”

"Yes, the person who formed the doubles with him at the time was Mr. Gaishou, and I have already asked." After thinking about it, Date Hang continued: "And he said to his wife at the time, 'Go and drench the flowers'... I don't know what it means. ”

After hearing this, Zhu Fu Jingguang hurriedly reacted and said: "In the Nagano dialect, 'watering' is said to be 'watering'! ”

"Hey... In that case, isn't this Mr. Irie from Nagano Prefecture? At least you've lived in Nagano Prefecture, right? Kenji Hagiwara said excitedly.

"Hagi, you forgot a little." Matsuda Jinhei said seriously: "If the time of the tattoo was ten years ago, it would not be the same as fifteen years ago. ”

"That's right." Kenji Hagiwara picked up his notepad and said, "Let's change it to me, I'm in charge of Mr. Gaimori of the laundry." ”

Mr. Waimori, whose full name is Waimoriichi, is 55 years old and lives alone.

It turned out that it was his uncle who ran the laundry, but he got sick. Originally, he was just helping his uncle when he was hospitalized, but he has been running the business since his uncle's death.

The tattoo of Kannon on his upper arm seems to have been tattooed in honor of his wife and mother who died at the same time in a traffic accident 20 years ago.

"That uncle is also a repairman who is praised by the neighbors, he graduated from an engineering degree from a certain university, and I heard that simple electrical appliances can be repaired, which is just the same as Jinping!"

Kenji Hagiwara looked at the police notepad in his hand and said, "The reason why I doubled with the Irie group is because I heard that I am a fellow villager." ”

The fact that Irichi's hometown is likely to be Nagano Prefecture as well. Ritsu Sasashima silently made a note in his heart and continued to listen to who Matsuda was responsible for.

Matsuda's object in charge is called the Ministry of Things, Chinese New Year's Eve is thirty-five years old, and the scorpion tattoo on the back of his neck is a sign of joining the underworld organization when he was young and frivolous, and that underworld is called the Scorpion Cup.

When I got the tattoo, I was 20 years old, but the tattoo was on my neck, and my current marital status was also single, living alone.

After listening to the contents of the investigation of the three suspects, there was a sense of indescribable incongruity, and Sasashima noticed Keimitsu's contemplative expression and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

"Ahh I'm reminded of the phone call I had with my brother some time ago. Zhufu Jingguang explained: "My brother said that the place where I was hiding at that time was not a Japanese-style sliding door wall cabinet, but a wardrobe that opened outward. ”

"Did you confuse your family with your relatives in Tokyo? I remember that the house was a Japanese-style house, so there were only paper doors and wall cabinets. ”

"Well, it should be."

The wardrobe that opened out, the original subtle sense of incongruity is here!

Matsuda Jinpei, who also noticed this, expressed his doubts: "But it would be strange if that were the case? If the place where he is hiding is a closet that is open to the outside, then if the murderer hits it because of his slippery foot, the door will be closed, and the murderer will not be seen at all? ”

Listening to their discussion, Date Hang recalled the wardrobe at home, and couldn't help but say, "Maybe the gap where Zhufu looked out... Not vertically, but horizontally? ”

Ritsu Sasashima, who reacted, hurriedly said, "Squad leader, what do you mean... Is the wardrobe a shutter door? ”

"That's right, if the wardrobe is a shutter door, then you can see outside even if the door is closed... Therefore, the tattoo pattern I saw at that time should not be a goblet. ”

“？！”

If you can't see the top and bottom because of the blinds, you will see the opposite statue of Kannon as a goblet!

After reacting to who the murderer was, everyone threw away the mop in their hands and ran quickly towards the police academy.

The Waimori laundry run by Gemorichi is located in Asahimachi 1-chome-2banji, not far from the police academy, and can be reached in less than eight minutes by their running speed.

Matsuda Jinpei slammed the door open and shouted into the store, "Hey, Uncle Gaishou, are you there?!" ”

The laundry is unusually quiet, and there are no employees, so it looks like a vacation list.

Falling Gu Zero turned his head to look at the drum washing machine on the side, but noticed that there were wires connected between the two washing machines, he reached out and was about to open it, but after being discovered by Matsuda, he hurriedly stopped loudly: "Don't touch it!" That's a bomb!! ”

"Bombs, bombs?!"

Matsuda Jinhei, who knew this kind of thing very well, crouched down with his hands on his hips, looked at the improvised bombs connected by wires, and said, "Well, if it's connected to other washing machines, it will blow up the entire shopping street." ”

"However, the one on the far right seems to be the source, so as long as you stop it, it's fine."

Zhu Fu Jingguang was puzzled: "But why set up a bomb?" ”

"Now is not the time to think about this kind of thing, Matsuda will trouble you to defuse the bomb, Zhufu and I will go to find the outer guards, and the others will go to evacuate the surrounding residents!"

"Yes, squad leader!"

"Wait!" Matsuda Jinpei stretched out his bandaged hand and said helplessly: "I'm sorry, my hand is in this state now, and I can't do fine work, but Hagi can you replace me, right?" ”

"I wanted to say, 'Wrap it around me,' but did you forget that my hand was scratched by the cat?" Kenji Hagiwara said with a wry smile and stretched out his two fingers tied with bandages.

The two of them set their eyes on Sasasima's body, and they wanted to say that they wanted to ask Sasashima, who was second only to them in terms of finger dexterity in bomb disposal, but it happened that he was scratched by glass just yesterday, and his left hand was also bandaged.

"Then there is no way, I have to let you come."

"Call, call me? But I didn't..."

"I'll teach you, just take it easy!"

"Okay."

Sashima and Hagiwara ran outside the store and began to evacuate the crowd in the shopping street in order to prevent unnecessary casualties from the bomb explosion.

Although they still trust their partners very much in their hearts.

After evacuating all the people, he returned to the store to receive the good news that the bomb had been defused, and at the same time, he saw Date walking down the stairs with the sleeping little girl in his arms, while Zhu Fu took the murderer outside Shouichi.

"Looks like we've been busy for nothing, Sasashima."

"yes."

The outer guard who walked down the stairs lowered his head and asked in a low voice, "What time is it?" ”

"Huh?" Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at his watch and said, "At 4:29 p.m.... What's wrong? ”

"I'm sorry kid, I'm going down to apologize to your parents..."

At the moment when his words fell, a huge explosion suddenly came from the second floor, and he didn't expect that the second floor would also be bombed!

Just when they were panicking, Zhu Fu Jingguang saw the outer guard running quickly towards the second floor that was engulfed in flames, and knew that he wanted to commit suicide, Jingguang hurriedly followed.

"Don't go to Zhufu! It's too late!! ”

"Turn back—Jing!"

When Zhu Fu Jingguang stepped on the last step of the stairs, he looked behind him and shouted, "Outside! Cherry blossom! ”

Matsuda Jinpei frowned and said, "What is he talking about?" It's not time for the cherry blossoms to bloom yet, right? ”

Cherry blossom? Bloom?

The scene in the bathhouse came to mind, and Matsuda Jinpei displayed the class flag with his arms outstretched.

Is that what happened?

Quickly running to the balcony on the second floor, the five of them spread out the class flag printed with "Cherry Blossoms", waiting for a certain "hero" to appear.

It's a tacit understanding between them, with unconditional trust.

Successfully rushed out of the sea of fire with the outer guard, jumped out without hesitation, Zhu Fu Jingguang lay on the class flag, and heard the whimpering sound of the outer guard being dragged by himself.

"Let... Let me die......"

"That's not good, I have to let you atone for your sins first."
