Twenty minutes later, Ryosuke and Urashima appeared in Hanakaiin Haru's sight.
The two were wearing dark suits with the armbands of 'Search One Class' on their arms, but everyone present knew that these two people should be from the so-called 'Zero Class'.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ryosuke began to order the police at the scene to re-stretch the cordon in an orderly manner—more than double the size of the previous one.
This made the people around them frown.
However, Ryosuke ignored it.
The middle-aged criminal policeman signaled a team of police officers with live ammunition to stand behind the cordon, and then looked at the people around him.
"I hope everyone will cooperate."
Ryosuke said in his own unique voice.
With that ferocious appearance, it has a different kind of persuasive power.
For most of these 'outer world' people who are hiding their identities, they are very wise to maintain their rationality.
Of course, they also remembered Ryosuke's face.
Ryosuke gestured at Urashima indifferently.
The two walked straight towards the lighthouse.
Huakai Yuanqing stood there without moving.
In fact, since calling the police, Huakaiyuanqing has been standing in everyone's sight.
The young onmyoji is no fool.
He knew very well that at this time, once he was out of everyone's sight and the body was found in the tower, he would not be able to explain at all.
He was continuously suppressed, calculated, and then murdered in anger.
This is so normal.
Normal enough that everyone can think of it.
Even if he didn't kill it.
But the 'main family' of Huakaiyuan would also think that it was homicide.
The hat of 'infighting' will definitely be buckled down.
Maybe he won't die in the end.
But he will definitely fail the test of dividing the family into the master's house.
The latter is what those bastards are for.
The flowers bloom and the courtyard is clear.
So, he stood here from beginning to end.
Even when he saw Ryosuke and Urashima, the young onmyoji didn't say hello.
What he needs now is to avoid suspicion.
Ryosuke and Urashima didn't stop when they passed Hanain Haru.
Ryosuke is not an idiot. He has already found out what happened to Huakai Yuan's family when he was by Jason's side.
Now of course I know how to do it.
Urashima
Whatever Ryosuke does, he will do.
Ordinary police not only blocked the outside, but also blocked the inside of the lighthouse.
"What a luxury!"
Urashima stepped on the soft carpet, looked at the protruding crystal lamp on the wall, and couldn't help but whispered.
He had seen the carpet before. When he moved to a new home, he hoped for a "gentle" place to stay, so he went to the carpet specialty store introduced by his friend.
Because someone said that a warm blanket will give people the feeling of "lovers".
Urashima, who is single, hopes to experience such a feeling.
So, he went.
Then…
He wisely chose to leave.
Because, the cheapest blanket in it needs three months' wages.
Not at all what he could afford.
And the one under his feet at the moment is the most expensive one in the store.
He didn't even have the courage to ask.
More importantly, what he saw was a 2X3 (meter) blanket.
And now
Spread out from the entrance, to the winding stairs, and then to the top.
Such a price is completely beyond imagination.
As for those crystal lights that appear every two meters
Now that he appeared here, Urashima believed that the price was completely unaffordable for him, even if he couldn't tell the difference at all.
"Pay attention to examining the corpse."
Ryosuke didn't care at all.
The middle-aged criminal police focused more on the corpse.
"A knife in the heart and a knife in the neck."
"The two didn't even react and their throats were cut."
"The knife marks on the heart should be repaired."
"According to the wound, the murder weapon was a weapon such as a dagger or a dagger."
While talking, the middle-aged detective pointed to the wound and told the young Urashima.
Urashima nodded repeatedly.
Although he was still a newcomer, Urashima, who was gradually getting rid of the rookie period, was able to face the corpse calmly, and he also knew the difference between the wounds caused when people were alive and the wounds caused after death.
"The two should be walking side by side towards the door."
"However, the murderer standing outside the door wiped the necks of the two of them the moment he opened the door."
"Then, he quickly hid behind the door to avoid the spray of blood."
Ryosuke turned to look at the door of the lighthouse.
The door panel was bright red, proving his words.
Then, Ryosuke stood up and walked towards the lighthouse.
Urashima followed immediately.
In the room on the roof, they saw the middle-aged man from Huakaiyuan's family who had been dead for a long time.
The corpse fell on its back on the carpet, its eyes were wide open, its mouth was slightly opened, and a bloody hole in its throat could clearly see the carpet.
"A surprise blow."
"The victim was about to leave when he met the killer."
"The victim had no defense at all."
"It just got pierced through the throat."
"And after the murderer finished all this, he left the scene calmly, and even wiped the blood on the two previous corpses... Is this guy confident?"
Ryosuke whispered to himself.
With Ryosuke talking to himself, the whole process of the case has appeared in front of Urashima.
As a partner, Urashima quickly recorded all this.
Then-
"Is it an acquaintance?"
asked the young policeman.
"Um."
"It's an acquaintance."
"At least someone who is not obtrusive here."
"Immediately investigate who has been missing since the so-called 'King of Fighters-King of Fighters Tournament'."
"Also, let the forensic doctor do the autopsy."
Ryosuke squatted next to the corpse while talking, and began to search seriously.
Although he knew there might be no clues, it was not Ryosuke's style to give up without trying.
Urashima immediately acted.
Soon, the result will come out.
After Ryosuke checked the scene and found nothing, Urashima ran back.
"I found it, Mr. Ryosuke."
"Only one person at the scene disappeared—"
"Kasano!"
"He is the guide of Your Excellency Jason, Huakai Yuanqing and Miss Shacang. After Mr. Jason and his party boarded the ship, he completely disappeared from everyone's sight. No one can prove where he went."
Urashima reported truthfully, with a hint of excitement in his words.
No matter how you look at it, this Kusano looks suspicious.
It might even be the murderer.
"Do you want to issue an investigation assistance notice?"
Urashima asked.
"Um."
"release."
Ryosuke nodded immediately.
It's the process, and there's nothing wrong with it.
The crux of the problem is... Blossoming Courtyard!
When the forensic doctor examined the body just now, Ryosuke on the side had already confirmed that the dead middle-aged man belonged to Huakai Yuan's family.
Think about it again, standing under the lighthouse, the flowers blooming in the yard without taking a step forward.
Ryosuke has probably guessed it.
"Troublesome big family."
As the middle-aged criminal policeman said this, he strode towards the lighthouse.
Although troublesome, the questioning with Hana Kaiin Haru still has to continue.
Under the lighthouse, Huakai Yuanqing no longer stood there.
The caravan that came gave Huakaiyuanqing a quite comfortable place to stay.
And the orange juice in the hand makes the comfort a little more comfortable.
"You look in a good mood?"
After Liangjie boarded the RV, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows when he saw Huakaiyuanqing half-reclining on the sofa chair.
"certainly."
"An eyesore is dead."
"Shouldn't I be happy?"
Huakai Yuanqing said very frankly.
"You should at least show your sadness, otherwise, your suspicion will increase!"
Ryosuke reminded the other party.
"If it's useful, of course I'd like to do it."
"pity… "
"The family in 'The Other World' is more unreasonable than you think."
Huakaiyuanqing shrugged, and then opened the refrigerator.
"What do you want to drink?"
asked the young onmyoji.
"I dare not. I just resumed my job. If I drink your drink here, even a glass of water, I will have to take another paid vacation today."
Ryosuke pointed out the window and sighed slightly at the people who had been staring here.
Although he already had a plan, this quick reinstatement almost disrupted his plan.
However, Ryosuke was delighted by such a disturbance.
He knew that his plan could be implemented ahead of schedule.
Of course, to be on the safe side, he chose a more conservative approach.
I didn't take the initiative to go to the front of the 'Hana Sakura' organization.
Instead, he waited silently.
Yamashita is dead.
Miyamoto is also dead.
'Hana Sakura' will definitely take action.
When the time comes, it is time for him to act.
How can it be enough to kill moths like Yamashita and Miyamoto
What he wants is a thorough 'clean up'.
"You don't seem in a hurry?"
Ryosuke continued to ask.
"The families in the 'Inside World' are more unreasonable than you imagine, and they are also more reasonable than you imagine—they ignore the rules of the 'External World', but they will abide by the tradition."
Blooming Garden has a clear meaning.
"Sounds a bit duplicitous."
Ryosuke commented.
"If I were you, I would never say such things outside."
Huakai Yuanqing reminded Liangjie.
The latter spread his hands, saying that he was just seeking truth from facts.
Then, the two entered the process of questioning.
With too many people testifying, there is absolutely no problem with Huakai Yuanqing.
"If you have anything on your mind, you can call me."
When leaving, Ryosuke said this.
"Same."
"If you are in trouble, you can also call me."
Huakai Yuanqing said with a smile.
After a traitor appeared around the young Onmyoji, he began to deliberately deploy forces outside the family.
Especially when there was a surprise like Jason, the young Onmyoji couldn't get enough of it.
He didn't expect another Jason.
Even, there is no need to reach the height of Miss Shacang.
He just hopes that there will be a few more candidates who can be used at critical moments.
And Ryosuke in front of him
Exactly what he wanted.
"If there is a need, I will."
Ryosuke replied like this.
After several days of encounters, a brand-new world appeared before Ryosuke. Ryosuke has already understood that his old ways are difficult to work, and his toughness is not worth mentioning in the eyes of the members of the "inner world". of.
In the same way, it is useless to be strong if you want to accomplish your own plans.
So Ryosuke smoothed himself out.
Such a change is uncomfortable.
But it's worth it for the purpose.
Huakaiyuanqing did not get off the car after Liangjie left, but ordered the driver to return directly to the other courtyard.
Ryosuke watched the RV leave.
The people around also dispersed with the departure of the RV.
They were unhappy without seeing the imagined conflict.
However, left to continue to blow the sea breeze
It's not something they can enjoy.
Fortunately, although the murder at the lighthouse did not cause a direct conflict, subsequent conflicts are still possible.
In this regard, they are gloating.
Not only is it related to the Huakai family, one of the four major Onmyoji families, but also because no one knows how such a thing will turn out in the end.
Maybe there will be a chance to 'bite' a Blossoming Courtyard and strengthen one's own strength.
Therefore, when these people left, they were excited.
"A flock of vultures."
Ryosuke, who sat in the car again, commented in this way, his voice was not concealed, and it was very clear.
"Very good review."
"Just like we were called 'hyenas' by them."
Behind him, a clearer voice came, causing Ryosuke to stop holding the cigarette.
Almost subconsciously, Ryosuke was about to take out the gun.
However, when Ryosuke's hand touched the handle of the gun, a hand pressed against his hand.
"I have no ill intentions."
"Didn't you hear what was said?"
"us!"
"It's us!"
The voice continued.
The pinned hand was completely immobile, not even a single finger.
Coupled with the other party's words, Ryosuke immediately had a guess.
Sakura!
The Hanakura he was waiting for!
I didn't expect to find it so soon!
In Ryosuke's expectation, the other party will spend at least a few days, or even a week.
When they lose one or two more manpower, they will find him to 'refill manpower'.
Could it be...
The manpower of 'Hana Sakura' is not as many as imagined
As soon as this idea appeared, Ryosuke denied it.
'Hana Sakura' is impossible without manpower.
Then there is only...
Jason!
'Jugger' Jason!
Only this answer.
'Hana Sakura' has received the news that Jason is a 'Juvenile Master'.
So, I can't wait to let him join.
Liang Jie guessed from the bottom of his heart, but asked the question knowingly.
"Who are you?"
"'Hana Sakura'."
"Have you heard of this organization?"
"We are a mutual aid association within the police, and every year we invite some elites to join the club—we have contacted you, Ryosuke, in a very subtle way, but you turned a blind eye, or refused."
"However, your ability is outstanding, and we think it is necessary to give you a chance."
The other party said it high-sounding.
"I'm afraid it's because of Jason?"
Ryosuke unceremoniously exposed the other party's purpose.
"Look, I just said Ryosuke, your abilities are outstanding."
"At least, the insight is pretty good."
"And, very straightforward."
The other party smiled without denying it.
"We really need someone who can get in touch with His Excellency Jason... you know, that is the first 'Jugger Master' in a hundred years!"
"And Ryosuke, you are the most suitable candidate."
"Don't worry, it will be beneficial, and will give you an undoubted big price."
The other party continued talking.
But Ryosuke is more direct, he said in a deep voice—
"Jason is my best friend, so I need to... add money."
