Ke Xue: I picked up a bottle of sherry at the beginning.

As it was almost time for work, Shiraizumi Masu and Yumi went downstairs together and came to the Metropolitan Police Department.

The two of them belonged to different departments and had to work in different departments, so they separated.

Bai Quanyi walked towards the criminal department. The police officers coming and going all recognized Bai Quanyi, and they all looked at him with respect.

After all, Shiraizumi Masu has solved too many cases for the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. He is also a detective who can solve criminal cases without the need for detectives.

Policemen in uniform or suits passed by one after another, nodding and greeting Bai Quanyi from time to time, and Bai Quanyi smiled in response.

There are regulations on the uniforms worn by criminal police officers.

For patrol, chief patrol officers are required to wear uniforms, but after being promoted to chief patrol officer, they can wear plain clothes and only carry their ID.

However, once you are promoted to the position of Superintendent or above, you must wear a uniform.

The backbone police positions such as Patrol Chief, Deputy Inspector, and Inspector all wear suits or casual clothes.

The reason is very simple. The people who handle cases and solve crimes on the front line are usually Inspector Megure, Deputy Inspector Sato, and Inspector Takagi. If they wear plain clothes, they will not attract the attention of criminals. If necessary, they can just show their ID to prove their identity.

At this time, Sato Miwako came to the Metropolitan Police Department to work and happened to meet Miyamoto Yumi who was about to go out on a field trip.

Seeing that Miyamoto Yumi couldn't hide her joy and was humming a song, Sato Miwako couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Yumi, what good thing happened to you that makes you so happy so early in the morning?"

Miyamoto Yumi and Sato Miwako are good friends, and they didn't hide it either. They said with a smile: "I... am in love!"

Sato Miwako suddenly realized and asked, "That person called Haneda Hideyoshi finally came to see you?"

Miyamoto Yumi said with a look of disgust: "It's not Haneda Hideyoshi. I have long forgotten such a bad man as Haneda Hideyoshi!"

Miwako Sato asked curiously, "Who is that?"

Miyamoto Yumi was very shy and was too embarrassed to tell Sato Miwako that her lover was Shiraizumi Masushi. She was much older than Shiraizumi, and it was like an old cow eating young grass. She just said, "Mikako, you know that man too. Next time I have the chance, I will bring him to introduce him to you in person."

"Is that so? Someone I know? Could it be Takagi or Shiratori?"

Miyamoto Yumi said that she knew them, and Sato Miwako thought of her colleagues in the Investigation Section 1. After all, she was not familiar with those in the Traffic Section.

"Oh... Meiwazi, don't guess. You'll know next time I bring him to see you."

After saying that, Yumi Miyamoto drove away in the police car.

Miwako smiled and didn't think much about it. She would never guess that it was Shiraizumi Masu, because Shiraizumi Masu and Yumi had no connection at all. What's more, Shiraizumi Masu was her lover, so how could he be dating Mingmei?

Miwako reported her work to Shiraizumi Masu, which was a case called "Hammer Man".

In Mihua City, there's a terrifying Hammer Man. Over 1.8 meters tall, he strikes out late at night, specifically targeting women with long hair. One blow from his hammer... guaranteed to splatter blood and tofu. He's also incredibly fast, running a hundred meters in just 11 seconds. Several long-haired women have been killed, and the latest victim was found with a blood-soaked hammer next to him, stained with the blood of four people in total.

The hammer man's cruel methods caused panic among the people, who put pressure on the Metropolitan Police Department to solve the case as soon as possible.

"Inspector Bai, I'm afraid you'll have to come in person to handle this case." Sato Miwako is impartial in her work. Work is work and life is life.

"I understand. I'll help. But... kiss me."

"Eh? What!"

"Miwako, is it difficult? You are my girlfriend now."

"Officer Bai, it's work time now!"

"You are really very methodical."

Miwako bit her teeth, then blushed and kissed Baiquanyi.

Bai Quanyi nodded in satisfaction, and then said, "I have a basic understanding of the situation. I will assist you, Meihezi, in apprehending the criminal."

Even so, Shiraizumi didn't have a good idea. He and Miwako searched for clues at several crime scenes. Then they went to the place where the hammer man might appear and staked out.

Unfortunately, neither Shiraizumi Masaru nor Miwako found any useful clues, and the hammer man was not found either.

Bai Quanyi was thinking about whether to find a place to sit down and have a cup of coffee.

Miwako Sato suddenly said, "Officer Bai, kiss me!"

·· ········Request flowers 0 ··

"Eh? Miwako, why are you suddenly so proactive?"

"Hurry up, don't dawdle."

Miwako urged.

"Oh."

The temptation of the pink little mouth, so close, made Bai Quanyi excited, and subconsciously hugged the other party, and then...

"Then I'm welcome."

Although Bai Quanyi didn't understand the situation, he still did as he was told.

“Cough cough… cough cough…”

Just as the two mouths were about to come into close contact, a series of discordant coughs rang in their ears.

"Ok?"

Looking with a puzzled look, Baiquan Yi saw the strange looks from Xiaolan and Sonoko.

"Hello, Xiaolan, Sonoko."

......... ......... .......

Compared to Shiraizumi Masushi, Sato Miwako's face just flashed a slightly unnatural blush before she greeted him enthusiastically again.

"Officer Sato, just now you and Inspector Bai..." Xiaolan asked cautiously.

"You two aren't having an office romance at work, are you?" Sonoko was more straightforward.

Sato Miwako was very embarrassed. She was a very self-disciplined policewoman and her self-esteem did not allow her to admit it.

"Xiaolan, Sonoko, please don't misunderstand me. Actually, just now I..."

Miwako Sato explained everything to Xiaolan and Sonoko. Just now, Miwako Sato noticed a suspect who might be the "Hammer Man", and the suspect also noticed her at the same time. In desperation, she thought of using kissing to cover herself up.

After listening to Sato Miwako's explanation, Xiaolan and Sonoko breathed a sigh of relief. They didn't want anything to happen between Shiraizumi Masushi and Sato Miwako. They already had too many rivals in love, so they really shouldn't have any more.

"Hammer man?" Xiaolan's face showed a look of horror.

"It was reported on the news this morning. I heard someone saw him in a nearby park last night. He was said to be 1.8 meters tall, and the four victims were all women with long hair." Yuanzi said with an exaggerated expression.

"In fact, the witness followed the 'hammer man' and made an important discovery. He saw the 'hammer man' enter the apartment."

Miwako Sato followed the witness's information and tracked her down to this place. Her target was the middle school student in the apartment building behind her.

381. Urban Legend "Hammer Man"

"Ah!" Xiaolan and Sonoko were both scared.

The Hammer Man can basically be classified as an urban legend. Who knows whether the Hammer Man is a human or a ghost.

"We rushed here immediately after receiving the report. After checking house by house, we found that most residents had alibis. However, the middle household on the third floor was clearly occupied but pretended not to hear the ringing."

Upon hearing that Sato Miwako had roughly confirmed the clues about the 'hammer man,' Suzuki Sonoko excitedly said, "Then why not just rush in? Let's borrow a key from the landlord."

"No, there is no search warrant." Bai Quanyi explained embarrassedly.

"However, it's a good thing that the witness was able to catch up with him!" Yuanzi said in surprise.

"Well... I heard that 'Hammer Man' can run 100 meters in less than 11 seconds!" said Maori Ran.

Bai Quanyi smiled bitterly upon hearing this and said, "That's all urban legend. It's not that fast. Even a drunken witness could catch up with it!"

"But now that we know the room, we should also be able to know the owner of "997"!" Sonoko said immediately.

"You asked the right question." Sato Miwako didn't treat Xiaolan and Sonoko as outsiders at all. "The owner of the house is a hiker who is currently traveling abroad. He temporarily lent the house to his friends. The owner's parents told us all this over the phone."

"Then don't you know who the landlord's friend is?" Sonoko asked again.

"Hmm..." Sato Miwako nodded and continued, "I heard from the neighbors that he used to live with his girlfriend, but recently his girlfriend hasn't been coming over. He stays in his room all day, only going out at night. He always wears a hat and a windbreaker, and no one knows what he looks like."

"Officer Sato, White Inspector."

"Ok?"

Baiquanyi took a step back and looked back. It was Gao Mu running towards him. He thought to himself, "Did something happen?"

There were three strangers with Takagi.

"Uh... have you been in and out of that room?" Sato Miwako heard Takagi's words and turned her gaze to the people in front of her. "It's these people."

"Hmm..." Takagi nodded and said, "I was monitoring the main entrance from a distance and found that these three people entered and exited the target's room, about ten minutes apart."

Bai Quanyi then looked at the three people. Their attire was related to delivering something. There were two men and one woman.

"Then what are you three doing in that room?" Bai Quanyi stepped forward, glanced at the three of them, and asked.

"What for? I just received a call and went to that room to get the goods." One of the two men, a burly man, said in a loud voice and patted the things in his hands. These were the goods he wanted to take.

"I also answered the call and rode a motorcycle to get something." The only woman among the three said immediately. She had blond hair and looked like a female gangster.

Finally, it was the last man of the three's turn. "I'm here to deliver the pizzas they ordered."

"So, have you three met the owner of the house?" Bai Quanyi continued to ask.

"No, I didn't see him." Unexpectedly, the burly man said that he had never seen the owner of the house.

"There was a note taped to the bottom of the main door saying he was in bed with a cold and told me to just go in and take the cardboard box on the table."

"The delivery note has been written, and the money is in the envelope on the box."

"I understand, what about you?" Bai Quanyi waved his hand and looked at the woman.

"I didn't see it either. The motorcycle courier's request was written on a note at the door. The thing they wanted to deliver was the backpack on the table. They told me to take it myself."

Then, he raised his hand and revealed a transparent bag with a green backpack. "He told me the destination when he contacted me."

The pizza delivery man said something similar. "The instructions for the pizza are written on the note. The money is in the envelope on the table. Just tell me to leave the pizza on the table."

"Bed-ridden due to a cold?" Sato Miwako muttered.

"Hmm..." the burly man said, "His voice was indeed hoarse when he received the commission call."

"I heard it too."

"Me too."

The blond woman and the pizza man were also touched by what the burly man said, and they followed suit.

"But why do you keep calling people here?" Takagi hesitated.

"By the way, you have to know Takagi and the other two police officers to monitor the main gate, right?" asked Miwako Sato.

"Um...yes, the other two went to stop the courier and the motorcycle courier, and I was the one who went to stop the pizza delivery guy who came last." Takagi replied.

"So there's no police officer monitoring the main gate now?" Sonoko interrupted.

“No…ah…”

Suddenly, Gao Mu realized something, his face changed and he exclaimed.

"Oops."

Bai Quanyi realized that something was wrong and took immediate action.

"Takagi, I'll leave these people to you."

Sato Miwako also realized it, and after giving instructions to Takagi, she followed Shiraizumi Masu's footsteps.

"After calling all sorts of people to his room, the police will have to split up to look for them in order to investigate. And we will definitely send the police officer we just saw to find them. His purpose is to take advantage of the fact that we have fewer surveillance personnel and escape!"

"Hoohoo..." Bai Quanyi came to the door of the apartment...

"Hmm? Memo in front of the door?"

"Click..."

I opened the door and walked in. Everything was just as the three men had said. The situation on the table was exactly the same.

"The pizza hasn't been touched yet." Bai Quanyi thought to himself as he opened the pizza box. "It seems he really screamed to escape."

"squeak……"

The sound behind the door startled Baiquan Yi. He turned around and saw that it was indeed Sato Miwako who had arrived.

"Shiraizumi Mashi, just when Takagi went to look for the pizza delivery man, the first officer who was looking for the delivery man came back and took over Takagi's job, but he didn't notice anyone coming out of the room."

"What?" Shiraizumi Mashi was very surprised after hearing what Sato Miwako said.
