"Anyway, the office will be closed for a few days starting today. I'll call you to let you know when it's open again."

Lin Jiashu said as he stood up.

Amuro Toru smiled and nodded.

Lin Jiashu left the office and got into his own car. After driving away from the original place, he stopped in a relatively remote place.

He took out a notebook and a pen from his pocket.

When the notebook was turned to a certain page, there was a clear narrative on it.

【Sano Taiga】

After witnessing a successful skydive from the twin towers of Seymour City at 3:21 PM on March 21st, I became very interested in BASE jumping.

[To gain fame, at 4:7 on April 16th, he jumped from the Yokohama Landmark Tower with a parachute pack. During the jump, he made an operational error and fell to his death.]

Lin Jiashu will not let himself fall into a trap easily.

It's only fitting that he use a consumable who loves to bully and blackmail the weak to ensure his own safety.

He continued to record on the paper of the Death Note.

Chapter 225: Jundu probably guessed someone was watching him

夜晚

At 19:04, it was raining

A man in black clothes was walking leisurely on the crosswalk.

He held an umbrella in one hand and stared at the mobile phone in the other hand. His attention was completely focused on editing the text message content and he didn't notice the pickup truck speeding across the street.

When he noticed the roar of an engine approaching, his face suddenly became extremely panicked and he hurriedly moved aside.

Following his gaze, he could see the driver of the pickup truck steering with a look of fear on his face.

At the critical moment, the out-of-control car suddenly turned its head on the slippery ground, bypassed the man, rushed to the side, and hit the traffic light pole on the side of the sidewalk with all its strength.

Zila Zila...

The signal light's pillar was broken and leaned against the coffee shop sign at the street corner, with sparks flashing from the exposed bottom.

The sudden situation scared the drivers and pedestrians on the street.

The man who escaped the disaster and fell to the ground was gasping for breath.

At this time, another man walked out of the coffee shop. He seemed to be curious about the situation so he came out to see.

boom!

The front tires of the pickup truck with its malfunction lights flashing suddenly made a noise.

The sound of the flat tire was like a firecracker, which scared the man standing outside the store. The entire body of the pickup truck also shook because of the flat tire, and the broken signal light pillar fell down and knocked the man to the ground.

Zila Zila——

The flashes of electricity from the broken wires were disturbing.

At this time, the awning at the entrance of the cafe was dripping with rain, and the waterproof canvas seemed to be filled with a large amount of rain falling straight down.

The man's body instantly began to convulse and twitch.

"..."

In the distance, the woman who witnessed this scene opened her eyes wide.

for a while

By the time the clerk in the coffee shop ran out screaming and passers-by started taking out their phones to call the police, she was able to confirm the fact that the man was dead.

She took out her phone.

[The target is dead? ]

Rum's text message came out just half a minute ago.

Vermouth immediately typed a response.

【After death, the time is exactly the same as before.】

When the text message was sent, Vermouth felt terrified.

Cointreau's method of killing is simply devilish.

Everyone's reactions and actions are under his control, from the timing, environment to the target's psychology, everything is following his script!

He was like the director of a disaster, calmly and naturally taking away the lives of his targets like the god of death who wrote the script...

What frightened Vermouth the most was that this was actually his third target - since the day before yesterday, Cointreau had maintained a frequency of one target a day, and all of them were killed by accident within a short minute between 19:05 and 19:06.

Rum: [Still can't see anything? ]

Vermouth: [No. But what is certain is that the target this time will still die within the minute between 19:05 and 19:06.]

Vermouth sent a text message, but Rum took half a day to reply.

Rum: [Stop observing for now.]

Vermouth: [Oh, you don't plan to continue investigating Cointreau's secrets?]

Rum: [All targets were killed at 19:05. Cointreau probably guessed someone was watching him. He might be warning or provoking.]

Rum: [Of course, if you're interested, just keep watching.]

"..."

Vermouth has no interest in such heart-stimulating things.

After the last incident, she didn't want to be "taught a lesson" by Jundu again, especially if she hadn't given in quickly last time, she might have encountered something even more terrifying.

The woman started the car and drove away by stepping on the accelerator.

the other side,

In Beika's second apartment, Hayashi Yoshiki tore off a new page from the Death Note and lit it with flames.

The white paper was quickly burned to ashes.

Gin's mission is completed here, but the next reaction is the most important.

Jingle bells ~ jingle bells ~

Lin Jiashu's cell phone rang, and he picked it up and answered it.

"Hey, White Horse?"

"It's me. Another accidental death has occurred today," Hakuba Tan's voice came from the other end of the line. "The time of death was around 19:05 PM today."

"...Your news is really getting more and more timely."

"Ah, after all, there's no need to keep this kind of information secret from me now, and my father is eager to hear your opinion."

"I see. Do you have any more specific information?"

"I still don't quite understand what's going on today... So, are you free tomorrow? I'll come find you and talk to you in person."

"Okay, how about meeting at my office tomorrow afternoon?"

"it is good."

Bai Ma Tan hung up the phone.

Lin Jiashu put down his phone and smiled.

Regarding the accidental homicide case, Bai Ma Tan is now learning about it at an increasingly faster rate, which also reveals a piece of news: the task force or Bai Ma Tan's father is accepting Bai Ma Tan to participate in the investigation... or is becoming more and more interested in Lin Jiashu.

In other words, they are starting to get anxious about the current situation where nothing has been accomplished.

For three consecutive days, all three people died at 19:05.

However, they had no idea where to start and could only wait for related cases to arise and then anxiously surround and investigate something useless.

This was also the result that Lin Jiashu intentionally promoted.

"The task force..."

"Rum's real name, Karasuma Ren'ya's location..."

"As the boss of the zoo... I really have a lot of targets."

Thinking about these things, Lin Jiashu picked up the pen and put it down again.

He began to think about the resources available around him.

The organization has completely given up looking for the APTX4869 that was stolen from Miyano Shiho's laboratory, so Lin Jiashu no longer uses consumables to constantly change their storage locations.

However, how can I use this thing to catch the boss in the zoo?

Also, Tokiwa Mio is almost recovered now - she, as the person in charge, was blamed for the Twin Towers incident, and the Tokiwa Group's stock price has been plummeting. She must have had a difficult time during this period.

Thinking about it, Lin Jiashu picked up his phone and sent her a text message:

"Ms. Tokiwa Mio, would you mind meeting me sometime?"

Buzz~!

He received a reply quickly.

Tokiwa Mio: "Of course, Mr. Hayashi. I haven't had time to thank you for what happened last time. How about you pick a time?"

Lin Jiashu: "Then how about this weekend at 7pm? As for the location, you can decide then."

Tokiwa Mio: "Okay."

Chapter 226: The unexpected murderer who provoked the task force

"Kindaichi Detective Agency... I don't think this name suits you very well, Lin."

The next afternoon, Bai Ma Tan, dressed in casual clothes, came looking for him.

He observed the environment of the office.

It's bright and neat, and from the decoration to the furnishings, there is a sense of clarity everywhere.

It was indeed the kind of office a detective like Lin deserved.

He nodded secretly.

"is it?"

"It's not that I can't understand why the name Kindaichi has this Easter egg feel to you, but when I think of Kindaichi, I always think of him as someone who's careless and unreliable, which is completely the opposite of your style."

"So names are as important as symbols in a way."

Lin Jiashu said with a gentle smile.

Bai Ma sat down on the sofa, opened his handbag and took out his computer.

"Where's your assistant?"

"I gave him a day off."

"I see."

Bai Ma Tan just thought that Lin Jiashu had sent the other party away for today's meeting, so he nodded slightly, then turned on the computer and entered the password to log in.

Lin Jiashu placed the brewed tea next to him.

"Thank you."

"Shall we get straight to the point?"

"Well, I can't wait to hear your opinion."

Bai Ma Tan said this, turning the laptop screen towards Lin Jiashu, and said solemnly: "The situation this time is different from the previous ones."

"Let me see."

Lin Jiashu was also very serious.
