Chapter 115
The lottery ticket that Mao Lilan won included high-end luxury accommodation in Osaka. Xing Haimei may have heard her mention this, but she had no idea what this "high-end" meant.
At this moment, he looked at the three-story building in front of him, tilted his head to glance at the sign, and confirmed that this was their destination.
"Wow." After paying the taxi fare, Kenji Hagiwara took a closer look at the hotel in front of him. It was obviously too high to describe this hotel as high-end and luxurious. The outer wall of the three-story building was covered with green plants, and through the gaps between the branches and leaves, one could see the exposed red bricks after the wall paint fell off.
The entrance of the hotel was swept very clean, although there were only a few shops open nearby and the place was remote. On the way to the hotel by taxi from the station, Xinghai Yahu even suspected that the driver had taken the wrong place.
But through the semi-frosted glass door of the hotel, you can see still or swaying figures inside, as well as faint voices of different people, which seems to indicate that there are quite a few visitors.
But the environment here is very good and the air is fresh. It can be said to be a good place for people who stay in the city for a long time.
It is not impossible that some repeat customers will come back.
The two adults had no complaints about this place, and Xing Hai Mei was not a picky person, but she had doubts about the "high-end" described in the lottery ticket, but this hotel was not bad either.
Although the three of them did not communicate much, they quickly entered the store one after another to check in. After the glass door was pushed open by Jinpei Matsuda who was walking in front, the voices in the hall came out clearly.
"You said you didn't know this person?! How is that possible? This letter of commission mentioned your hotel, didn't it?" The young man raised his voice and asked the old lady who was picking vegetables in a rocking chair, his tone full of undisguised anxiety.
The girl who was traveling with the boy came forward and whispered a few words of advice. Xinghai Ya couldn't hear clearly due to the distance, but after hearing what the girl said, the boy looked even more anxious.
"I know what you said, but this is a crime warning! If it's true, people could die!" The boy raised his hand and scratched the back of his head twice. The baseball cap on his head was knocked askew, and he was too lazy to fix it.
Xing Haimei glanced at the two policemen on leave beside her calmly, and was not surprised to find that after hearing the word "dead man" from the boy's mouth, these two guys seemed to have pressed a button and entered a serious working state.
Matsuda Jinpei walked towards the young man first. Hagiwara Kenji narrowed his eyes and turned back to smile at Xinghai Meihuo, "Little Meihuo, please check in first. Xiao Zhenpei and I will go and ask about the situation."
After saying that, he stuffed all the necessary documents to Xinghai Yahu, threw the bulging bag on his back, and walked over there.
The boy who rolled up the exercise book raised his hand and tapped his shoulder. 079 saw his action and popped out to see what was going on. It stretched out its data tentacles and rubbed Xinghai Meihu's hair, and said sympathetically: [This is basically the beginning of a case, right? ]
[Yes.] Xing Hai Ya walked to the other side of the front desk, where the hostess of the restaurant was in charge. She quickly checked him in, handed him three keys, and told him enthusiastically that dinner would be ready at 5:30.
"Do you know who was the person who was making loud noises just now?" Although Xing Haimei guessed that the person who would say such things was most likely a detective, this was just his guess and he could not rule out the possibility that the other party was just an ordinary person with an overflowing sense of justice.
"Ah, those are the two kids who arrived before you. Don't look at him like that, that boy is a famous high school detective in Osaka." The proprietress thought for a moment, then raised a finger and said seriously, "It seems that he received a crime notice saying that someone is going to kill someone named Akutami Sanki."
Upon hearing this, Xinghai Mei immediately looked in the direction of the young man. Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji were asking about the relevant situation. They all had serious expressions on their faces, as if the so-called death notice was really urgent.
The young man responded with "Oh, I see?", and concealed the expression in his eyes. His face was still as calm as before, but there was a hint of sharpness in his eyes.
Akutami Sanqi.
This was not the first time he had heard the name.
"Speaking of the famous high school detective, could it be that one?" The young man lowered his eyes and asked in an uncertain tone, as if he was trying to verify whether his answer was correct.
But in fact, the "that" he said did not have a specific reference.
"Oh, yes, that's Hattori." The proprietress didn't realize that the somewhat introverted child in front of her was trying to trick her, and she was very talkative and told him everything she knew.
"Hatori Heiji, have you heard of him?"
Xing Haiya tried to recall whether he had heard of anyone related to this matter, but unfortunately he was not interested in this aspect. The number of detectives who knew about this matter could be counted on one hand, and he really couldn't remember whether there was such a person.
But no matter who this Hattori is, this trip cannot continue properly.
The name Akutami Sanki is not a real name, but a pseudonym often used by serial killers. However, it doesn't matter whether this name is true or false.
What’s important is that this person died not long ago.
Died at Ricard's hands.
No.
It cannot be ruled out that it is someone with the same name.
Xinghai Meihu held her forehead and calmed down for a while. She drooped her eyelids and felt that she was a little too nervous. Even if that Akutami Sanki was talking about the same person, so what?
The dead cannot be brought back to life, and you can’t pull the dead out of the water and kill them a second time.
only……
Xinghai Yahu glanced at the two people who were walking towards this side after understanding the situation, raised her head and returned to her normal state, pouted and said that they were so slow, then handed over the key in her hand.
Just in case, let's have them check it out.
