Chapter 2975 Incident investigation
As the day's classes ended, it was time for school to end again. Perhaps Fang Zheng's warning had an effect. This time, Kushida Kikyo never invited Fang Zheng to go home with him as before, but just said goodbye to him and hurriedly left the school.
Therefore, some people just take the hard and not the soft, and if you don't give them some clues, they will go to bed and tear the roof apart. To deal with such people, you have to deal with them, and then she will know how serious the relationship is.
"Then pack up and prepare to go home for dinner..."
Yawning, Fang Zheng walked out of the classroom, and at this moment, his cell phone suddenly rang. Fang Zheng took out his cell phone, glanced at the text message on it, and then frowned.
"Commissioned search? This is really strange."
Looking at the content of the text message, Fang Zheng was a little surprised, because generally speaking, bounty hunters are responsible for the work of "hounds", that is, arresting criminals after discovering them. However, such matters as searches are usually left to the police or
The police have to deal with it. After all, their identities are relatively special. It is not their turn to do such things as searching for crimes...
Thinking of this, Fang Zheng picked up the phone and dialed a number. Soon, a nice and calm voice came from the phone.
"Hello, F, I knew you would contact me."
"What's going on? I don't remember the bounty hunter working part-time as a detective."
"This is a recommendation from above."
The voice obviously understood what Fang Zheng meant and quickly explained.
"During the terrorist attacks at the G20 summit, because of your activity, countries paid more attention to bounty hunters, so the authority of the Bounty Hunters Association has also been expanded. Moreover, this time you are entrusted by the Metropolitan Police Department...
... can be regarded as an official commission, funded by us. The reason why the other party appointed you is because considering your excellent record against the Star Apostles, they very much need the assistance of people like you who can deal with certain... special beings
.”
Good guy, you just pretend to be cool with me and I have to handle it in the end?
"Okay, what commission?"
Fang Zheng was somewhat curious. After all, the other party said that the reason for appointing him was because of his battle with the Star Apostle. In other words... plus it was the Metropolitan Police... Could there be someone with super powers committing another crime?
"For specific details, please go to the Metropolitan Police Department and ask Investigator Shinohara."
"...Okay, I'll go take a look."
Fangzheng sighed helplessly, hung up the phone, and then found Meigan's name from the address book.
I probably don’t expect to go back for dinner today.
After that, Fang Zheng came to the Metropolitan Police Department and met Investigator Shinohara here.
"Are you the legendary F? I didn't expect you to be so young."
The Inspector Shinohara in front of me was about thirty years old, young and strong, and he seemed to have the temperament of an elite police officer.
"No more polite words, let's get straight to the point. I'm also curious. Is there anything that your police can't solve and why you want to entrust a bounty hunter to it?"
Fang Zheng obviously had no intention of greeting the other party, but the other party nodded, then turned and walked out of the room.
"follow me."
Following Detective Shinohara into the elevator, the former pressed the floor button, and then the elevator door closed. It was only then that Detective Shinohara spoke.
"The reason why we came to you is because we encountered a difficult case."
"A tough case?"
"Yes."
Investigator Shinohara nodded.
"To tell you the truth, a number of murders occurred in our jurisdiction more than a year ago. Based on the on-site inspection, we determined that these cases were committed by the same murderer. However, we were unable to figure out the true identity of the other party.
.In fact, we have also strengthened patrol deployment, but there has been no progress."
"I didn't see the news. Was it blocked by the media?"
"That's right."
The police officer sighed.
"Although it's not nice to say this, in Tokyo, a city with a population of 13 million, the death of a few people is not a big deal. As long as the news is blocked and not reported by the media, it will not cause commotion and trouble."
Fang Zheng also shrugged his shoulders and said nothing more. He also knew that this was a fact. In fact, Japan's security is not bad, but there are also a lot of missing people every year. It is unknown how many of these people are still alive.
.So if the police want to block the news, it is not impossible. In fact, even if it is reported, most criminal cases are only three minutes of heat, unless they are like poison gas in the subway or random killings at the station.
This kind of thing will be continuously reported.
However, this also aroused Fang Zheng's curiosity. After all, generally speaking, the police rarely block media reports on cases, especially the Japanese police. Unless the case is very scary or likely to cause social panic, they will choose to do so.
And this case may even involve me...
"Ding."
The elevator shook slightly, stopped, and then the elevator door opened. Fang Zheng walked out of the elevator and followed the investigator to the morgue. Here, a corpse covered with white cloth was lying in it.
"This is another victim we discovered yesterday."
The investigator walked up to the body, made a gesture to the other party, and then lifted up the white cloth.
The next moment, the entire corpse was displayed in front of Fang Zheng.
“…………The lion in the zoo escaped?”
After taking a look at the corpse, Fang Zheng's only thought was this.
"I didn't expect you to be able to see it so quickly."
At this time, the investigator looked at Fang Zheng with a bit more surprise.
"Yes, as you can see, according to forensic identification, this body has been eaten by some large animal."
"What animal?"
"I don't know. At present, I only know that its bite force is quite powerful, and it can easily tear the human body apart and then eat the flesh. Fortunately, it has never appeared in public, and the corpses we found were basically abandoned in inaccessible places.
The place."
"So you suspect that this is not done by animals, but by monsters, right?"
Fang Zheng suddenly understood why he was looking for him. Logically speaking, an animal that can bite and devour humans must not be small. As long as such an animal appears on the streets of Tokyo, it will definitely cause a commotion no matter where it is. But
According to the investigator, it had killed several people in succession without attracting any attention, which was very strange in itself.
"Although it sounds a little weird, but...at present it seems that this is the only possibility."
"I see."
Fang Zheng stared at the wounds on the corpse, remained silent for a moment, and then nodded.
"I will try to investigate, but I need all the information about this case. By the way, I don't guarantee that I will be able to find the prisoner."
"Of course there is no problem."
The investigator didn't seem to expect Fang Zheng to suddenly come to the rescue and capture a monster the next day. After hearing Fang Zheng's request, he nodded.
"I will give you a copy of the information."
When Fang Zheng returned home, it was already late at night, and Mikan, Eve and Lapis had already gone back to their rooms to rest. So Fang Zheng went straight back to his room and opened the door...
"Why did you come back so late?"
"Jade Star Stone?"
Fang Zheng was stunned for a moment when he looked at Jade Star Stone, who was standing on the table and looking at him angrily.
"You haven't slept yet?"
"After all, you didn't come back so late, so of course you would be worried."
Facing Fang Zheng's inquiry, Cuixingshi's face turned slightly red, then she snorted and turned her head.
"Besides, I'm different from that ruthless True Red. I care about my master very much, okay?"
"Yes, yes...my Cuixingshi is the most obedient."
As Fang Zheng spoke, he sat on the bed and glanced at the box next to him. Zhenhong basically went to bed at nine o'clock every day. According to her, staying up late is the enemy of beauty... In this regard, Fang Zheng
I just want to complain about you, a doll made of wood, but you still know how to take care of your skin? How about I give you some wax?
While complaining in his heart, Fang Zheng opened the case information brought by the Metropolitan Police Department and looked at it carefully.
According to this information, this strange killing incident started five months ago. It is basically one case every month, with one to two people killed each time. The main scope of the criminal's activities is concentrated in the bustling urban area. And the victim was killed.
Most of them are unemployed vagrants or homeless people, or even students who have run away from home... Well, no wonder the Metropolitan Police Department has doubts about this. After all, if it weren't for the weird killing method, how would this look like a human being?
for.
He deliberately chooses places where strangers come and go to avoid attracting others' attention. He kills people whose disappearance would not attract much attention, and once a month...
Could it be that someone raised a monster and took it out every month to look for food?
"Human, what are you looking at?"
At this moment, Cuixingshi also came over curiously. When she saw the bloody photos in the file, her face instantly turned pale and she stepped back.
"This, this, this, this, what is this!!!"
"This is the information for my work this time."
Fang Zheng closed the file and looked at the Emerald Star Stone.
"Work, work? Human being, what kind of dangerous work are you really doing? Let's forget it, you're not short of money! Although I don't know what it is, don't do anything that is too dangerous!"
"Well, although I don't want to do it either..."
As Cuixingshi said, Fang Zheng is not short of money, but what if this case is the next task he wants to complete? After all, as long as Fang Zheng completes one task, Xiao Hei should be able to bring the fleet to support him.
By that time, it will be much easier to do other things.
