Some things are not easy to explain, so just let it turn the page naturally.

By the time Shiho Miyano had changed his clothes and came out of the room, Higashino had already left.

"You're really busy......

The joy and anticipation on Shiho Miyano's face slowly calmed down, and he came to the sofa and sat down heavily, feeling a little dazed for a while that he didn't know what to do.

yes, what should she do?

It is not recommended to think about killing the organization with this posture for the time being, and the trouble of finding gin is also empty talk, and it is even a question of whether you can find where gin is.

If the purpose is only to kill the gin, she needs to do a lot of preparation.

If the goal is to destroy the organization, then she needs to prepare even more.

Everything starts with the basics.

With no money, no people, no social status, and just a little girl, she can't even take the first step.

"Sure enough, I still have to find Kudo Shinichi first......"

Shiho Miyano sighed slowly, and suddenly realized another problem, "That guy... Could it be that you want to drag me and not let me go before saying that you can't come back at night? ”

After saying that, she shook her head vigorously, "How is it possible... Although it is a little suspicious to say that I am busy but have time to buy me clothes, it is also reasonable to take the time to solve my side of the matter first. ”

Odd... Why does she keep thinking of herself as "very needed"?

Shiho Miyano rubbed his inexplicably red face, and at the same time noticed the money and notes on the table.

She hesitated, then picked up the note.

[Maybe you won't come back until late in the evening, so you can solve the dinner yourself.] 】

Okay, you didn't mention anything about sending me away.

Miyano Shiho felt more and more that Higashino didn't want her to leave.

"But... How can I continue to trouble you......"

No matter what Higashino Ning thought, she should leave now for her own purposes.

Shiho Miyano seemed to have made up his mind, tore off a sticky note, wrote down a paragraph carefully, and then found a back package for those new clothes.

The backpack was huge, and her small shoulders were a little strained.

"Sometimes, kindness can be so heavy that it can be a drag."

"But ......"

Shiho Miyano tightened the strap of his backpack hard, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It's also impossible to discard, and even more powerful to keep walking." ”

She pushed the door open and left in the sunlight.

The next stop is... 2-chome 21-hinchi, Yonka-cho.

...

The other side.

Higashino Ning, who was searching along the street with Takagi, suddenly had a touch of uneasiness in his heart.

I don't know why, the image of Shiho Miyano standing at the door waving at him came to his mind.

"That guy isn't going to abscond......"

Higashino Ninwu whispered to himself, beckoning Takagi to go to the next merchant.

He said that if Shiho Miyano wanted to leave, he would not force him to stay.

The two of them are not blindly investigating now, and after leaving home, Takagi Shibu took him back to the Metropolitan Police Department to bring the document that he didn't take away.

The above is mainly a report from some merchants who have received counterfeit money, and now it is a formal process to conduct routine follow-up investigations to portray the portrait of suspects.

The afternoon time flew by.

Higashino Ning and Wataru Takagi returned to the car.

"Ahh Just listening to their descriptions, there are simply not too many people who use counterfeit money. Takagi patted his forehead with his palm, "It seems that those criminals have completely spread the scale, and it will be difficult to catch the people responsible for peddling counterfeit money, let alone those behind the scenes." ”

To tell the truth, in terms of the current scope of influence of this case, Wataru Takagi feels that his future is already smoking, and the smoke is blocking the light.

Higashino Ning sat in the co-pilot and looked at the results of today's investigation, and said in a low voice: "Don't be so desperate, there may be problems within their criminal gang now." ”

"How?" Wataru Takagi's eyes lit up.

Higashino continued to look through Wataru Takagi's small notebook, "The frequency of receiving counterfeit money in this area has become much lower recently. ”

"If you change the area for fear of being caught, then there should be no record of the use of counterfeit money in this area in the near future, after all, the earliest date of use of counterfeit money was two months ago."

"Since there are still people using it, it means that the users of counterfeit money have not spread to a very large extent, and this is basically the case in the two areas we investigated today, and I think it is quite common."

He threw the small notebook to Wataru Takagi, leaned back in his seat with the back of his head in his hands, "And over time, the amount of counterfeit money decreases, which may mean that the speed at which they make counterfeit money is slowing down." ”

"In addition, these merchants have not received the new currency that has just been released recently, which is unreasonable, even if it is a new currency, there should be many people using it, after all, it is such a large range."

Wataru Takagi thought about it along Higashino Ning's train of thought, and felt that it made sense, "Then what kind of problems do you think have arisen within them?" ”

"If we can identify the type of problem, maybe we can find out the problem through sudden changes in equipment and personnel in society."

Higashino Ning couldn't help but glance at Takagi Wataru again, and said indiscriminately: "It may be that there is a problem with the new coin plate, or it may be that there is a problem with the person in charge of drawing the counterfeit coin sample, and I don't know exactly what the process of making coins is." ”

Takagi Wataru nodded, "Well, then today's investigation will be here first, it's not too early, I'll send you back first." ”

As he spoke, he squeezed his eyebrows at Dong Ye Ning as if he was a little emotional, "After all, you still have a little girl to take care of." ”

"Speaking of which, how long will she stay at your house, it's not a holiday now, is it?"

Higashino Ning turned his head sideways, "I don't know how long it will last." ”

He pushed the car door open, "You go back first, I want to go around here again." ”

To be honest, he didn't want to go home now, afraid that his afternoon speculations would come true and see an empty home.

Although the Miyano Shiho he met was very different from the original plot and personality, I have to say that such Miyano Shiho is more suitable for living together.

Because the other person will bring vitality and happiness to people.

There is no substantial difference between screwing and being a police officer, it is nothing more than a change of identity to experience the empty life of adulthood.

How could Higashino Ning's long-standing numbness not be touched by such a Miyano Shiho?

Once a person has experienced a new feeling, it is difficult to retreat, and even if it does, it is normal to miss it all the time.

Wataru Takagi pursed his lips and stared at Higashino Ning.

Although he didn't know what the other party was thinking, he knew that his good friend was a little unhappy at the moment.

The car turned from starting to stalling.

Bang~

The doors are lightly closed.

Takagi Wataru sighed and pretended to smile helplessly, "I was really defeated by you, do you want to fight so hard for promotion?" ”

"You're the only one now, and I don't want to be alone too soon."

Higashino Ning looked sideways and couldn't help but smile helplessly.

"Hey! You guy actually use counterfeit money! ”

"Come on, someone, someone is using counterfeit money!"

At this time, a shout suddenly came from a convenience store more than ten meters away from the street, and two figures also ran out of front and back.

Wataru Takagi and Higashino Ning glanced at each other and chased after them without hesitation.
