163 Attempts at the "Wheel of Fortune".
Kyoto Prefectural Police Headquarters, in the interrogation room, Takato looked at Haruki Kubo in front of him and proudly told the story of four years ago, after he met the girl with short brown curly hair at Logan International Airport in Boston, USA, Haruki Kubo returned from intoxication and looked at Takato with provocative eyes-
"Option 1: Ignore the other party's provocation and gradually break through the opponent's psychological defense."
"Option 2: Go along with the other person's words and further set out the other person's experience four years ago."
Looking at the options that appeared in front of him, Gao Yuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart, and then decisively chose the second option, and then, Gao Yuan followed the other party's emotions and said:
"That's right...... What an enviable experience. ”
Hearing this, the corners of Kubo Haruki's mouth gradually rose, and he became even more proud:
"Hehe, such an experience, a man like you who doesn't understand the amorous feelings, must have never experienced it!"
Very proud, Haruki Kubo said in a strong and provocative tone.
In this regard, Gao Yuan's momentum seemed to be suppressed, nodded and affirmed the other party's statement, and continued to echo:
"Since this is such an important memory, even if the photo is deleted, you should leave something to commemorate it."
"Of course!"
Kubo Haruki's mood seemed to be greatly satisfied, so he couldn't help but say proudly:
Although the photo was deleted by the blonde woman, there was a way to preserve her appearance. I found someone who could draw and according to my description, I drew her. ”
"Huh? Is there a portrait? It's really curious what kind of characters can make you so fascinated. ”
Gao Yuan said with some curiosity.
After saying this, the door of the interrogation room was suddenly opened from the outside, and I saw the Ayakoji Wenlu Police Department standing outside the door, signaling Gao Yuan to come out.
Seeing this, Takato glanced at Haruki Kubo, who was chained to a chair, and then walked out of the interrogation room, closed the door, and asked:
"Officer Ayakoji, what's the matter?"
"Mr. Wise."
In this regard, Ayakoji Wenlu said with a somewhat unhappy expression:
"Mr. Akechi, I listened to Officer Twilight's advice before I asked you to ask Haruki Kubo, and I hope you can ask for some clues from him. But you've been listening to him talk about his experience four years ago, what does that have to do with this case? What the hell do you think? ”
"Option 1: I agree with the statement of the Ayakoji Fumiro Police Department, and I feel that what Haruki Kubo said has nothing to do with this incident."
"Option 2: I'm still curious about what Haruki Kubo said, and ask the Ayakoji Fumiro Police Department if the police have found the portrait he said."
Looking at the options that appeared at this moment, Gao Yuan chose "option two" without hesitation, so Gao Yuan said with some embarrassment:
"I think maybe we can find some clues from this...... Officer Ayakoji, did the police search his house for the sketch portrait he said? ”
"Sketch Portrait ......"
Aya Xiaolu Wenlu frowned slightly and muttered, while looking at Gao Yuandao with some suspicion:
"Do you think you can really dig something out of his mouth with these?"
"You can try."
Gao Yuan said uncertainly.
In this regard, Ayakoji Fumiro was silent for a moment, and then asked the police officer beside him:
"Did you find a sketch portrait at Haruki Kubo's house?"
"Yes."
The officer thought for a moment, then replied:
"It's a sketch portrait...... But that's a back. ”
"Back?"
Ayakoji Wenlu and Gao Yuan were both a little surprised, and Ayakoji Wenlu couldn't help but say:
"Take a look."
After speaking, the police responded, and quickly brought a sketch portrait protected by a transparent evidence bag, only to see that the portrait was the back of a girl, with short curly hair, and she couldn't see her face clearly, and because it was a sketch, she couldn't see the color.
"Mr. Wise...... It's this one......"
Looking at this portrait, Ayakoji asked with some confusion.
But after Gao Yuan saw the portrait, his expression immediately changed, he took the painting from the policeman's hand, and hurriedly ran into the interrogation room, photographed the portrait in front of Kubo Haruki, and asked sharply:
"Why the back!"
"Huh?"
Suddenly, Haruki Kubo was frightened by Takato's momentum and was a little puzzled.
"If the picture is based on your description, why did you draw a back?"
Gao Yuan asked sternly, but there was something left unsaid in his heart-
If you just draw it according to the description, why is this back so similar, even the details are well drawn!
In this regard, Kubo Haruki paused, lowered his head and was silent for a while, and then smiled lightly, revealing a smug expression:
"Ah, I can't help it."
The mood is still very proud, Haruki Kubo said:
"Actually, it's not that there are no photos."
"Do you have a picture? Didn't you say it had been deleted? ”
Takato asked.
"At that time, when the blonde woman took my mobile phone, my brother, who was traveling with me, thought that the blonde woman was going to rob, so he filmed the scene not far away, ready to be kept as evidence. And in the corner of that photo, I happened to have her back photographed, and it was only because it was too blurry that I asked my brother to draw her back. ”
Haruki Kubo said proudly.
"Where's the picture?"
Takato asked.
"Maybe my brother still has it, but I don't have it anyway."
Haruki Kubo said.
And after hearing this, Gao Yuan didn't have the heart to chat with him, and all the options that appeared next, Gao Yuan didn't look at them carefully at all, so he skipped all the processes until the case was closed-
When Gao Yuan woke up, he was still in the private room of the Internet café, and looked at the time displayed on the screen for about two hours, so he got up and prepared to leave-
That's right, the experience just now is not a reality, but a dream.
More precisely, it is the use of the disposable item "Wheel of Fortune" to retrace the course of the case.
Since this incident seems to be related to the organization, in order to ensure safety, if this incident is really related to the organization, Takato must figure out the purpose of the organization's actions.
However, based on the existing details, Takato can't draw any conclusions, whether it is the virus suspected of being a "Night Baron", or Kubo Haruki's brother Kubo Kosuke, although they can be related to the organization, they can't investigate anything.
And Gao Yuan didn't dare to investigate openly, so after thinking about it for a while, after the investigation of the case reached an impasse, Gao Yuan suddenly remembered that in addition to the normal investigation, he also had special props!
In the case of "Kyoto Famous Gate", he didn't know that the short-haired girl with brown hair that Kubo Haruki mentioned that fascinated him was probably Miyano Shiho, so he didn't ask Kubo Haruki more about it at that time.
So, in order to find a breakthrough, even if the possibility is extremely small, Takato still chooses to spend 100 bounties to buy the "Wheel of Fortune", ready to retrace the case and see if he can ask something from Kubo Haruki by changing his choice, so he made the attempt just now.
As a result, I didn't expect that this got a very important clue - in the hands of Hisake, there may be a photo of Miyano Shiho's back!
