Chapter 6 If only it could be earlier

Two surveillance videos of the department store have been sent to Hayasaka's mobile phone, and Ritsu Sasashima has checked it again and again, and can confirm that the missing person Ma Morishima when she arrives at the department store is in a relaxed state, but in the second video, it is obvious that she is anxious, and even leaving the surveillance range is a trotting posture.

This shows that she didn't notice that she was approaching the agreed time to go to the coffee shop, which also makes sense why she hung up in a hurry when she called two calls from her best friend, thinking that she should study hard because she was already late.

In those five minutes, the person who met her could only be Kenji Yamamoto, the owner of the coffee shop who was in charge of training her.

"Police, should we go into the coffee shop and check if there is a secret door?"

Yuna Hayasaka, who is keen on watching criminal investigation films, still has a big brain, maybe there is a secret door hidden somewhere in this coffee shop, and there is some dirty business behind the secret door, and the missing person Mao Morishima is likely to have discovered this kind of place and was arrested and imprisoned.

"It seems that you usually like to watch TV dramas, and even fantasize about being a very efficient criminal policeman in solving cases in the drama during the viewing process."

"The police department... Can you please not peek into my life from what I say? I'm now a little suspicious that you installed surveillance equipment in my home. ”

Yuna Hayasaka put her hands on her chest and looked vigilant, which made Sasashima feel helpless, if this guy could use his wild brain in the right place, he would not be able to "run errands" for himself at the scene of the crime.

"According to the confession of the coffee shop clerk, Mao Morishima has never entered the coffee shop, so going to the coffee shop for an inspection is just a waste of time."

"But... Is it likely that the coffee shop will have a hidden back door? If you enter the café through the back door, you won't be noticed, right? ”

Ritsu Sasashima pointed to the bakery and asked, "According to the information I received, this is the first time she has come to this store to work part-time. Do you think it is in line with the general logic to first rule out the possibility that first-time visitors know that there is a back door in the store, and then rule out the front door as a latecomer who does not take a shortcut to choose a detour at other doors? ”

"Hmm... It seems like this, and if the boss stands at the door to greet him, there is a good chance that the clerk will notice. Yuna Hayasaka played with her long hair with both hands and asked, "So where will she go?" ”

The boss stands at the door to say hello? Greet...?

Sasashima Ritsu hurriedly looked up at the building in front of him, the second and third floors are residential buildings, and the entire third floor has a balcony, and the space is too large to be independent.

If the owner left the store and went up the stairs to one of the rooms on the third floor, he could see Mao Morishima getting off the bus stop from there. After hanging up the first call, I noticed that the boss motioned for me to go upstairs... In a hurry to apologize for his late behavior, Ma Morishima will enter an indoor space on the third floor unsuspectingly.

In this way, it can also make sense of the two doubts of "where did she go in the five minutes she disappeared" and "why was the second call indoors".

"Did the police investigate and visit the surrounding residents before?"

"No, I've reported everything on the notepad to you."

"Hayasaka, follow me!"

"Huh?"

Ritsu Sasashima was a fast runner, especially in this case, and he couldn't understand why the police officer in charge of the disappearance case had not visited the residential area above the bakery, which was definitely a serious dereliction of duty.

After combining two steps and running quickly to the third floor, Ritsu Sasashima knocked directly on the door of the first room at the top of the stairs. There was a sound of ropes in the room, and soon footsteps were heard, and when the door opened, stood a blonde young man in pajamas.

Speaking in the dialect of Hokkaido, he asked, "What are you trying to do at such a late hour?" I just came home from my night shift. ”

Yuna Hayasaka immediately took out her police ID and said, "We are policemen." ”

"Police, police?" The young man's face was nervous, and he stammered, "It turns out that it's a policeman?" Are the two officers looking for me for something? ”

There was a strange smell in the room, and Ritsu Sasashima frowned and looked at the young man's fingers, a few of his fingers showed a yellow burn, plus the young man's dark circles were very obvious, his hair was very messy, and his eyes were hollow, which was mostly a characteristic of the hot Heroin.

"Do you want me to go into the house and search for Heroin, or do you want to just reach out and let me cuff it?"

The blonde young man knew that he couldn't escape, and not long after he finished sucking, he couldn't escape the urine test and saliva test, so he had to take the initiative to stretch out his hand and take the initiative to admit the crime.

Ritsu Sasashima handcuffed him to the railing next to him, and now there were other things to do. Yuna Hayasaka didn't react, and she was so lucky to be so lucky to catch a drug addict?

When he came to the second room next door, Ritsu Sasashima still knocked on the door as before, but he didn't hear a sound from inside, he turned to look at the young man with a frustrated face, and asked, "Do you know who lives next door?" ”

"Huh? Next door... There's no one living there. ”

The empty room meets the conditions for Kenji Yamamoto to commit the crime.

Ritsu Sasashima motioned for Hayasaka to stand farther away from him, and then raised his left leg and kicked the wooden door open, and the scene of violently breaking into the house scared the blonde young man trembling... Fortunately, I didn't choose to run away just now, and I am afraid that two ribs will be broken when this kick is on my weak body.

The room was very dim and unlit, and Ritsu Sasashima watched his surroundings vigilantly, making sure that there was no problem before walking inside, and when he pushed open a bedroom, he couldn't help but clench his fists as he pushed open the scene inside.

The bedroom was very shabby to the various coffee-making instruments in the living room, with only one bed and in the corner a slumped teenage girl in an unconscious.

The girl is the missing person in the disappearance case, Mao Morishima, her head is slightly up, her naked body is full of large and small wounds, and her limbs are controlled by chains, and she is completely unattractive in the photo at this moment.

"How so..."

If the cops had noticed it earlier, she might have had a chance to escape the demon's grasp.

Ritsu Sasashima squatted down and gently patted Morishima's shoulder, just such a touch made the unconscious Morishima have a strong resistance reaction after seeing Sashima clearly.

The chapped lips made a hoarse sound, begging for mercy.

“… Don't, don't... Don't come here..."

Ritsu Sasashima knew that he was a man, so he was contradicted by Morishima. He stood up and took off his blazer, handed it to Yuna, who was shocked behind him, and said in a deep voice, "You put it on her, I'll contact the nearby police station first." ”

“…… Good. ”

I didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing not long after becoming a police officer, Ritsu Sasashima walked out of the room and sighed deeply, took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of the Hamura City Police Station.

After summarizing the content, about 20 minutes later, the police officers on duty arrived at the scene and took away Ma Morishima, who was in a trance and extremely insecure, and the blonde young man who confessed that he had smoked Heroin.

At the same time, the Hamura City Police Department also sent police to arrest Kenji Yamamoto, who was sleeping at home, and he confessed to the crime he committed in the police station, after all, the evidence is conclusive and there is no way to get away with it.

"If this case can be handled within 12 hours... If the police in charge of investigating the case can be responsible, will they be able to prevent this from happening? ”

Hearing Hayasaka's question, Sasashima couldn't give a reasonable answer.

"We've at least done it and brought the criminals to justice."

Ritsu Sasashima rolled down the window, started the car and said slowly: "Look ahead, tell me your home address, and I'll send you back." ”

Yuna Hayasaka looked at the night scene that flew by, thinking of the picture she had just seen.

How desperate she must have been curled up in that room alone for three whole days.
