Isn't it very scientific to use the Death Note to kill people?

Chapter 229: Detective Consultant of the Task Force

Two days later, Lin Jiashu met with the Chief Superintendent of Police Hakuba.

The location is in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

The other person looks very kind.

He is in his forties and has a smiling face, just like Suzuki Sonoko's father, Suzuki Shiro. At first glance, he gives a very kind impression.

"We finally meet, Mr. Lin."

"Hello, Director Bai Ma."

"Well...I often hear that kid hear you."

Director Bai Ma had a smile on his face.

He gestured for Lin Jiashu to sit down, and he also sat on the sofa.

"It started when you caught Kaito Kid. He was so arrogant, always thinking he was better than everyone else, until he ran into obstacles with Kaito Kid several times."

"But it's undeniable that Bai Ma is indeed a very outstanding person."

"Yeah, but he still has a lot to learn compared to you."

Director Bai Ma has been observing Lin Jiashu.

how to say?

His son Bai Ma Tan is a very proud man. Although he can't be called arrogant, he is somewhat eccentric.

There are actually not many people who can truly confide in him.

Ever since the Twilight Villa incident, he has been praising Lin Jiashu in his words, and even took out a novel written by Lin Jiashu that he had already read and read it again.

He might admire the other person a little bit.

Director Bai Ma thought.

Lin Jiashu gave him a very good first impression. He was gentle, steady and polite. He was indeed an outstanding young man.

"The child told me all your inferences."

"A perfectionist with a strong desire to perform. Someone with exceptional abilities in calculations and physics..."

"The task force searched a lot in this direction, but unfortunately, they found nothing."

"Of course, but that doesn't prove your inference is wrong, Mr. Lin. After all, being able to detect the time changes in those three videos and recognize the murderer's provocation... is truly remarkable!"

"It can only be said that the other party is hiding deeper than we imagined."

Director Baima spoke freely.

He is not actually the head of the task force, but he has considerable power to interfere in the task force.

"Actually, I've been thinking about the murderer these past two days, Director Bai Ma."

"Please say."

"From a practical perspective, is it really possible for humans to calculate accidents to this extent?"

“…That’s indeed the problem.”

"But it seems that the only way to figure this out is to catch him, so there's no point in thinking too much about it."

Lin Jiashu showed a helpless expression.

Director Bai Ma nodded.

Even the task force currently following up on the investigation has nothing much to say about the murderer.

"Mr. Lin, the task force has collected accidental death cases that have occurred in recent years. Would you like to take a look?"

"of course."

Lin Jiashu nodded.

So Director Bai Ma personally took him to an office.

Several police officers were surprised to see their superiors and immediately stopped what they were doing to greet them.

Lin Jiashu also met someone he was familiar with.

"Sir."

Odagiri Toshiro stood up and nodded to his boss.

"Please sit down." Director Bai Ma smiled and waved his hand, then pointed at Lin Jiashu and said with a smile, "Mr. Lin, I don't need to introduce this person."

"Long time no see, Officer Odagiri." Hayashi Yoshiki said with a smile.

"Long time no see. The previous case was also thanks to your help, Mr. Lin."

Lin Jiashu had met Shiratori Sara, the younger sister of Shiratori Jinzaburo, at her wedding banquet before.

That is the incident where Sato Miwako was shot and Ran lost her memory.

Toshio Odagiri was also deeply impressed by Hayashi Yoshiki, especially since he was the leader of the task force in Tokyo this time. The other party's inference gave them a lot of investigative directions.

"follow me."

Leaving behind the smiling Superintendent Hakuba, the serious Toshio Odagiri took Hayashi Yoshiki into the task force.

Lin Jiashu was stunned when he stepped in.

In the office, numerous photos were posted on several huge whiteboards, and next to them were a large amount of text records... Lin Jiashu took a look and found that there were interpersonal relationships and pre-death experiences of the victims in accidental deaths, as well as confessions and follow-up investigation records of innocent people who were involved in the accident and inexplicably became part of the design.

Records of accidental deaths in recent years were also collected.

"We found that the frequency of coincidental and accidental deaths has increased significantly in the past year."

"...Did it just start in the last year?"

Lin Jiashu narrowed his eyes.

But it is true that it has been more than a year since he traveled through time and possessed the Death Note.

All we can say is that once the data is piled up, even the most hidden things will inevitably reveal some clues.

"Where did the first unusual accidental deaths occur?"

"It's in Yokohama."

Odagiri Toshiro answered immediately.

He walked to a whiteboard, took down the photos and document records on it and handed them to Lin Jiashu.

"The earliest record of a series of accidental deaths occurred 16 months ago in Kanagawa Ward, Yokohama."

"Four similar cases occurred after that, within a span of only two weeks. Unfortunately, the Kanagawa police didn't take it seriously at the time."

The document records handed over by Toshio Odagiri gave Hayashi Yoshiki a strong sense of déjà vu.

16 months...

If we don't mention the timeline that has become strange due to Conan's influence, has that much time passed?

When he first got the Death Note, Lin Jiashu had indeed been testing the extent to which he could use the Death Note to imitate Final Destination, and at that time he consciously conducted the test in a place away from Mihua and away from himself.

According to Toshio Odagiri, many police officers in the task force are now speculating that the murderer might be from Kanagawa.

"..."

"..."

Lin Jiashu stayed in the task force's office for a long time.

Toshio Odagiri cooperated very well throughout the process, and he retrieved whatever information Hayashi Yoshiki needed, so that he now has a general understanding of the task force's understanding of him.

"There may be more than one murderer."

"He could be a team too."

"After all, it's simply impossible for one person to achieve this level of success, from a rational point of view."

——This is the current mainstream thinking of the task force.

Lin Jiashu agreed with approval.

Finally, before leaving, when Hayashi Yoshiki was seriously invited by Odagiri Toshiro to be a detective consultant for the task force, he chose to accept with pleasure.

"Murderers like this who treat other people's lives as toys and take them away at will must not be forgiven so easily!"

Holding the hand extended by Odagiri Toshiro, Hayashi Yoshiki, who always smiled very gently, showed a rare serious and heavy expression on his face.

It’s not that I want to go to hell orz…

Teaching students on Saturdays and Sundays is tiring, and I am not in the best mood when typing, so I write very slowly.

Chapter 230: The winner takes all, the loser becomes a victim and bait

The goal of joining the task force has been achieved.

As a consultant, Lin Jiashu spent a day digesting all the information the task force had collected so far.

Almost worthless—

Faced with a murderer who uses various accidents as a method of killing people, the information currently collected by the task force is of almost no value.

Lin Jiashu didn't even find the code name "Cointreau" in the information he collected.

Did Toru Amuro not report it?

Or is it because they are worried that there are organized undercover agents lurking among them, so they don't want to alert them?

"Based on the information we've gathered so far, the victims who were accidentally killed by the murderer are almost never good people."

"Rapists, fraudsters, school bullies, domestic abusers, murderers, violent criminals, gang members..."

"Some are those who have been released after serving years in prison, while others are criminals who have gone unnoticed by the police and have been operating in society as ordinary people."

"Even the driver of the tanker whose tank exploded during the escape attempt was not the original registered driver of the tanker."

"The murderer killed almost all of the evil people who would be applauded even if they died."

"What is this?"

"Does he think he's punishing the wicked?"

"I suspect he might have a certain degree of moral purist tendencies, or perhaps he's just trying to attract attention and give his actions a veneer of 'righteousness'... But regardless, to be able to exploit and kill so many criminals, both open and covert, he must have his own intelligence gathering channels, or perhaps his profession makes it easy to identify these targets."

"Police, detectives, psychiatrists, lawyers..."

"certainly."

"The possibility that the murderer is a team has also increased."

In the task force's meeting room

Everyone listened quietly to the young man's voice coming from the laptop, and quite a few police officers were taking notes very seriously.

"Also, has any information about the deceased been circulating online? Especially any information about their crimes?"

"Well... I'm sorry, we haven't searched it yet."

Although the laptop's camera was not turned on, the officer sitting at his seat couldn't help but raise his hand before speaking.

"Please check in this direction."

"Ok."

"Does the consultant think that the murderer might have collected this information through the Internet?" asked Toshio Odagiri.

"...We can't rule out this possibility, but it's definitely a direction for investigation."

"That's right."

Odagiri Toshiro nodded slightly.

The meeting ended quickly.
