[Wen Hao] I worked hard to restore the health of the protagonist group
Chapter 207 Professional
When Ranpo and Po hurried over, Xie Shuyi was still looking down at the corpse. He always felt that the condition of the corpse was a little strange.
After hearing the footsteps, he looked up, and after seeing the two people, a smile immediately broke out on Xie Shuyi's face.
He raised his right hand and waved it, shouting hello, "Ranpo!"
After a pause, he said in a higher voice, "What a coincidence!"
Ranpo stood beside the corpse, and did not ignore Jie Shuyi's voice. He just responded coldly and raised his chin as a greeting.
Xie Shuyi withdrew his raised hand somewhat awkwardly and moved in small steps to Ranpo's side.
"You don't know, when I saw someone falling from somewhere else, I was terribly scared."
Xie Shuyi tugged at the corner of Ranpo's clothes, "Why aren't you talking?"
Ranpo coughed twice and pretended to be cool.
Xie Shuyi tilted his head and said, "I didn't mean to check your location. I just care about you."
Upon hearing this, Ranpo coughed violently twice, turned his head and met someone's starry eyes.
Poe noticed the strange atmosphere and turned to observe the body.
"Dead on the spot... Was this suicide? Or did the rats kill him to silence him?"
Xie Shuyi poked half of his head out from behind Ranpo and said, "It's impossible that he committed suicide on the spot."
Poe asked, "Why?"
"His blood is cold." Xie Shuyi pointed to the corpse on the ground.
Although Poe didn't understand, he still squatted down and touched the corpse's forearm.
The man had just fallen from the building and his body was still warm.
Xie Shuyi saw the confusion in Po's eyes, "Although he has been dead for a while, he didn't just die either."
He tilted his head. "But even if we do an autopsy, we won't be able to give an exact time. It's really hard."
Xie Shuyi tugged at Ranpo's cape again, "Is he your target for this mission? I can help you."
He showed a standard bright smile on his face, "I'm a professional!"
Before Xie Shuyi could wait for a reply, several policemen came trotting over from a distance accompanied by the sound of sirens.
"We are the city police! Don't touch the dead body!"
Odasaku had noticed the arrival of the police very early on. After exchanging a glance with Jie Shuyi, he quickly hid in the crowd and disappeared without a trace.
When he fled from Yokohama, he was already wanted by the police. Unlike Jie Shuyi whose identity was hidden by the detective agency, Odasaku was still an important wanted member of the port mafia.
Two policemen came running over, and they were also visibly stunned after seeing the people around the body.
"You are..."
Xie Shuyi noticed the fleeting joy in Ranpo-kun's eyes, and before he could ask, the figure beside him had already rushed out quickly.
Ranpo threw himself into the arms of the older policeman with a bear hug, and the latter staggered and took several steps back.
The police lady next to him came forward uncertainly, "Ranpo?"
Xie Shuyi walked over quickly and grabbed Luanbu by the scruff of the neck, trying to pull the struggling person out of the policeman's arms.
He smiled widely, "Ranpo-kun? Are you an acquaintance?"
But Ranbu held on very tightly, and Xie Shuyi did not dare to use force. He loosened the strength in his hands slightly, and his action changed from trying to pull Ranbu down to holding the back of his head with his hands to prevent Ranbu from falling.
The moment Xie Shuyi bent down and met Ranpo's eyes, he noticed the interest in the latter's eyes.
With a sly smile on his face.
The corners of Ranpo's mouth curled slightly, and Jie Shuyi knew it very well. Based on Ranpo's current movements, this smile was only visible to him, which meant that Ranpo was smiling deliberately for him to see.
Ranpo quickly took action, "Officer Minoura!"
As he spoke, his hands moved restlessly up and down the police officer's body. The police officer, who had originally had a serious face, unexpectedly burst into laughter, and an extremely obscene smile appeared on his upright face.
"let me go!"
Ranpo tickled even faster when he heard that, "You're so great!"
Officer Jipu was so ticklish that he wanted to cry but he had no tears. However, because he was extremely ticklish, he had no power to fight back. He could only let Ranbu do whatever he wanted. "Stop it, stop tickling!"
Ranpo showed a slightly smug smile on his face, "This time I win."
The policewoman beside him looked at Jie Shuyi for help, "Help, help Officer Ji Pu."
Xie Shuyi looked at Ranpo who was in high spirits, spread his hands and shrugged helplessly, but he soon realized something was wrong.
He and the uncle noticed something unusual no more than two blocks away, so they were able to rush here so quickly.
But if Xie Shuyi's memory is correct, the nearest police station is at least 3 kilometers away from the lookout tower, taking into account the time it took for the body to fall and the frightened people to call the police.
Aren’t these police officers arriving a little too quickly?
Xie Shuyi took Ranpo out of the police officer's hands.
But he pushed Ranpo behind him calmly.
With a scrutinizing look, he glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him calmly.
It was like watching some unforgivable kidnapper.
The latter had already become limp due to the tickling, and after confirming that Officer Jiura posed no threat, Xie Shuyi turned around and asked Ranpo.
"Have you been at the observation tower the whole time? Ranpo-chan, you should have seen the body fall, but when you rushed downstairs, the police also arrived at the scene. Are the police in Yokohama so fast?"
"Because the murderer called the police." Upon hearing the questions about the case, Ranpo restrained his smile and became serious.
Ranpo continued, "Call the police in advance."
Xie Shuyi tilted his head to glance at the corpse on the ground. It was definitely not a coincidence that Ranpo appeared here. There was obviously a conspiracy behind this matter.
"It is to let the city police seal off the scene as soon as possible and prevent you from touching the body." Xie Shuyi said this while looking at Ranpo.
The latter nodded and did not deny it.
If things develop according to the current situation, then this person definitely did not commit suicide.
"Did a rat push him down the stairs to silence him?" Po asked, standing beside the corpse.
Xie Shuyi immediately found the key point in his words, "Rat?"
Xie Shuyi tugged at the corner of Ranpo's clothes and said, "Are you investigating the rat incident by yourself? The president will be worried if he knows."
A smile appeared on Ranpo's face. "Aren't you here?"
Xie Shuyi curled his lips, but he did not deny it. A smile appeared unconsciously on the corner of his mouth. He squatted beside the corpse obediently, imitating Ranpo's appearance.
Even when Ranpo looked over, he saw a leather shoe dropped beside the corpse.
"When you were on the lookout earlier, did Ranpo see the body fall?"
Ranpo nodded, "What's wrong?"
Xie Shuyi pointed to the leather shoes beside the body and said, "Then this pair of shoes must have fallen off in mid-air."
Poe also came forward, "It was only a moment before the body landed. I don't remember it clearly."
Ranpo nodded affirmatively, "When we saw him at the window, his shoes were still on his feet."
Poe couldn't help but sigh, "You saw it clearly in such a short moment."
Ranpo reached out and picked up the leather shoe. He stood up, turned the shoe over and looked at the sole. "Judging from the wear on the sole, this should be a shoe he wears frequently. It won't come loose easily."
Xie Shuyi also stood up, patted the dust off his calves out of habit, and muttered to himself, "Then why did he fall off in mid-air?"
After patting his trouser legs for a while, Xie Shuyi suddenly got the answer, "So this pair of shoes is not what the deceased often wore."
Poe nodded as well, "Instead, someone else changed it for him before he was pushed downstairs."
Xie Shuyi obviously didn't understand the murderer's actions and looked at Po, "But why? Why would he go to the trouble of changing shoes for a dead person?"
After seeing Jie Shuyi's gaze, Po coughed twice, as if he was clearing his throat, but he still took two steps back unconsciously.
He had read Xie Shuyi's information, and it was obvious that Po found it difficult to get along naturally with anyone other than Ranpo, but even so, he still patiently explained for Xie Shuyi.
"Because Ranpo knows his footprints."
"he?"
Ranpo walked over to Shuyi and said, "In order to search for clues about the exterminators, I once went to their base in the abandoned coal mine. I naturally remember all the bloodstains on the ground at that time."
When mentioning abandoned coal mines, Xie Shuyi instantly thought of Fyodor and that extremely painful battle.
He pointed to the shoe and said, "What about this shoe print?"
“Of course it’s one of them.”
