Chapter Fifty-Four: A Great Spectator Seat
A five-star hotel next to Kabukicho called Mancai is hosting a grand drinking party.
The reception was a charitable foundation led by a respected parliamentarian, but there was no need to think about it... There is nothing wrong with this foundation removing the word charity from the front.
However, at this reception, most of the leading figures in the Tokyo area were already present, from representatives of various foundations to dignitaries from various organizations in Tokyo.
Hoshino Miku was also brought in to this boring drinking party because of her mother's entertainment.
However, she didn't follow her mother to talk everywhere, but hid in the corner of the drinking party and secretly exchanged some very important information with Yuyo of the Hyakkiin.
Hyakkiin Yu Dai came this time completely to rub the wine, and others were holding wine glasses there while chatting and tasting elegantly.
This Miss Yu Dai directly took a whole bottle and poured it into her mouth, a pure wine Mengzi.
Hoshino Mirai respects this senior very much... Part of the reason is that Hyakkiin Ikuyo has reached a point where Hoshino has not been able to reach the level of detective in the future.
That's the psychic level, or the inspiration level.
This level is an extra-theoretical level above the existing detective level, and basically the detectives who can get this title have solved one or two worlds of unsolved mysteries.
"Little Future... Almost all the things you want me to check are here, and although I can't make a conclusion yet, at least it's a thread. ”
Hyakkiin Ikuyo handed over a document bag to Hoshino Miku, who didn't dare to slack off and took the document bag and carefully checked the contents.
Most of the photos in the file bag are related to the leaf falcon, to be precise, the photos of the Koba Hayabusa in high school.
Hyakkiin Ikuyo recently conducted an in-depth investigation into Hayato's life in high school, and found a lot of interesting details.
Now I will deliberately take it and share it with the younger generations who are also very interested in Ye Falcon.
"Sports are everything... Is it? ”
Hoshino Miku opened these photos and took a look.,Most of the content on the photos was taken during the school festival and sports festival.。
And the Kobayashi Hayato in these photos was accidentally taken into the camera, not specifically for him.
In this unexpected situation, Yuyo of Hyakkiin really found a few very interesting photos.
Two of them are photos of the president standing on the podium to block the volleyball during the sports festival, and the moment when he was able to jump to a height of one and a half meters when he participated in the borrowing race.
From these photos, it can be seen that the physical fitness of the Hayabusa Koba is by no means what ordinary male high school students should have.
"He worked as a secretary of the student union for two years in high school, and he was usually very low-key in school. Extraordinary physical fitness. ”
Hyakkiin Ikuyo added some explanations, and then motioned for Hoshino Mirai to continue looking at the photos behind.
The photo behind is the murder scene of the Hayabusa Koba, and the photo is full of corpses and bloodstains.
Hoshino Miku is a senior detective, and such cruel pictures belong to pediatrics in her eyes.
Hyakkiin Ikuyo continued after taking another sip of expensive whiskey.
"And then this is the situation when Xiao Ye's classmates killed the four councillors, although the four councillors were in the VIP private room of the opera house when they died, and there was only one exit, which was considered a closed room murder case."
"But the strange thing is that from Xiao Ye's classmate to kill the four councilors, to the security guards under the councilors, and the police found that there was a gap of two hours."
"In the past two hours, Xiao Ye, he did not choose to escape, but stayed in the private room like a nobody, until the security guards and the police noticed that something was wrong."
Hoshino Mirai silently listened to the senior's case narrative, and briefly thought for a while about why Hayato Koba didn't run away and asked.
"Could it be that the security outside was too tight, so he gave up?"
"Then he should at least try, right?"
Hyakkiin Yuyo shook his head and vetoed Hoshino Miku's speculation.
"When the police arrested him, he didn't even resist, it was like he had accepted his fate... Or does he feel like his life is coming to an end?
"And what about the motive?" Hoshino Miku still can't figure it out, why did Hayato Koba choose to kill people when he lived such a pleasant campus life?
"I don't understand the motive, but some of the information behind can give a possible result, but you don't have to believe it all, because it's just a possibility for me to guess." Hyakkiin Yu Dai, she did not make a conclusion about the motive of Xiao Ye Hayato's murder.
Hoshino Miku hurriedly looked through the intelligence documents behind him, and the contents that came into his eyes... It gave Hoshino Miku a taste of what it means to be an 'explosion of information'.
"Wasn't the Black Sea Biotechnology Society-Rapid Adult Cultivation Program stopped ten years ago?"
Hoshino Miku has heard of this terrible plan.
The technological points of this world have developed very strangely, which can be seen from the fact that Nobuo Aozaki can refine the dragon's blood brain awakening agent.
In Ye Falcon's original world, no matter how he thought about it, he thought that it was a science fiction technology, but in this world, it has already entered the category of 'experiment'.
"Maybe it's just being stopped on the surface? On the one hand, it may be due to the production volume, but this thing is very marketable now..."Hyakkiin Ikuyo said as he took another sip of the whiskey in his hand.
"Very marketable..."
Hoshino Miku looked at this plan report, which touched on the concept of life ethics.
This is the early years of the Black Sea Biotechnology Society... Released to the outside world a report titled "On the Human Growth Cycle Can Reach the Same as Dogs, Cats, and Cows?" 》。
After that, they announced a project called 'Fast Adult', but unfortunately this project was too challenging to ethics, and the success was too low, so it could not be mass-produced and died.
However, the fact that Yudai of the Hyakkiin Temple handed over this information to her shows that this plan may still be going on in secret.
Maybe the success rate is very low and it can't be mass-produced on a large scale, but even if it can only be cultivated on a small scale...
"It only takes three years from birth to grow... Ordinary people look sixteen or seventeen years old, and their appearance and physical performance can be fixed at the peak of their youth, at the cost of an average life span of only ten years. ”
Yuyo Hyakkiin said this, pointed his finger at Hoshino Miku, and asked like a big sister doing a prize quiz show.
"Now guess what, what industry is the most profitable for such a 'commodity'?"
"Killer... And..."
Hoshino Miku quickly thought of this possibility, but this reasoning queen followed the clue of the killer and thought of an even more terrifying possibility!
That is, if murder becomes a business, then the cases that detectives solve......
It's a pity that before Hoshino Miku could reason out this possibility, her assistant, Mr. Fang Tian, the housekeeper of the Hoshino family, came over.
"Miss, Madame let you pass... An important member of the Metropolitan Police Department wants to see you, saying that he wants to talk to you about Mr. Hayato Koba. ”
“……”
Hearing this, Hoshino Miku's originally inspired expression instantly drooped.
"Yudai seniors... I'll study the information you gave me when I get back. Hoshino said after handing over the bag to his assistant.
"Xiao Future, don't be too obsessed with it, let me say it again, this information may not all be true, you really want to know Xiao Ye's motive for killing, just grab his collar and ask him when you have time."
Out of friendliness, Hyakkiin Ikuyo also reminded Hoshino Mirai not to trust this kind of ethereal information too much.
"I'll find a suitable opportunity to ask, and I care more about what that guy is doing than this..."
Hoshino Mirai said after waving goodbye to Hyakkiin Ikuyo.
"Maybe my mother can inquire about it, and I'll see you next time."
Hyakkiin Ikuyo squinted his eyes and waved goodbye to Hoshino Miku.
After Hoshino Miku left, Hyakkiin Ikuyo looked at the bigwigs in the Tokyo circle who were still enjoying the banquet, and opened himself another bottle of expensive red wine and turned his head... Looking out at the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, he muttered to himself at the neon-lit night scene of Kabukicho.
"Heavy rain... It's coming. ”
