June Bride Murder Case
After rambling on for a while, the lunch break was over in the blink of an eye.
"By the way, Fujino- Senior, are you going to Sayuri-sensei's wedding tomorrow?"
Just before returning to her seat, Ran suddenly mentioned it to Fujino.
"Ms. Sayuri?"
Fujino exclaimed in surprise.
"You remember that music teacher from junior high, Sayuri Matsumoto, Fujino- Senior?"
Seeing Fujino's surprised look, Ran reminded her, "I Senior you were also a graduate of Teitan Middle School, right? Sayuri-sensei should have taught Senior too."
Fujino frowned. "I didn't even know she was getting married."
"...x2"
For some reason, Ran and Sonoko looked at Fujino with a strange expression in their eyes.
Under Ran and Sonoko's stares, Fujino felt a chill run down his spine.
For no apparent reason, I felt like a pitiful stray cat or dog being watched by a gentle young girl.
Detective Profession Mission: The June Bride Murder Case
Mission objective: Solve the June Bride Murder Case.
Mission Reward: 500,000 yen, 100 Detective Reputation points
Back in his seat, Fujino frowned as he looked at the System Task that had just appeared before him.
He vaguely remembered Sayuri Matsumoto.
If he remembered correctly, it should be the music teacher from Teitan Middle School.
In his memory, the original owner was also a student at Teitan Middle School.
However, he and Sayuri Matsumoto were not particularly close before.
As for why he didn't know about this...
It can only be said that it's because he didn't keep in touch with his former classmates much, and they even lost contact after a year.
Moreover, the original owner didn't have many friends to begin with, so it's normal that he didn't know about this.
It would be strange if I could receive it.
It's hard not to suspect that, just like when the original owner was pranked at school, someone is playing a prank.
Metropolitan Police Department, Third Division Office.
"Sato, regarding the 'Beika Batman' news, have you made any progress with the eyewitnesses?"
Juzo Megure sat wearily in his office chair Sato Miwako, who was dressed in a business suit, in front of him.
For some time now, he's been having a headache over this suddenly appearing vigilante.
First, he handed over the real culprit from the Shan Ni Temple case two years ago to the police station, and then he began to beat up criminals indiscriminately in Beika Town.
While a decrease in crime is a good thing, it's a bad thing for the police.
Because the higher-ups believed that the guy had seriously threatened the Metropolitan Police Department's credibility.
"Not yet."
Sato Miwako shook her head. "The testimonies given by those who were saved by Beika Batman are all over the place. Some say he is a messenger of justice, others say he is dressed in all black... In short, it's very chaotic, and it seems that none of them want to cooperate."
"That's normal, after Beika Batman seems to have become a hero... Wouldn't anyone report someone who saved their own hero?"
Juzo Megure sighed, then asked Takagi Wataru, "Takagi, how's your investigation at the hospital going?"
"Things are going exceptionally smoothly on my end."
As he spoke, Takagi pulled out his notebook and said, "According to the descriptions of the prisoners who were beaten, the person who attacked them was wearing Batman Mask and a strange white robe. He may have been professionally trained, and even if the other party was holding a knife, he would not be afraid of them."
"What's even stranger is that, according to their unified account, they hadn't seen that person before they were beaten; it was as if he suddenly appeared and then suddenly disappeared."
"Appearing suddenly and then disappearing suddenly?"
Juzo Megure frowned. "If that's the case, then the other party must have undergone professional stealth training."
After pondering for a moment, he stood up and said earnestly to Takagi and Sato Kazuko, "That ' Beika Batman has seriously challenged the credibility of our police force. We've been ordered to catch him tonight no matter what..."
Late at night.
After school, Fujino changed into an assassin's trench coat, put on Batman Mask, and began wandering around Beika Town, intending to catch a few criminals and gain some fighting skill points.
"The crime rate has indeed dropped quite a bit recently. Is it really all because people are afraid of me?"
Fujino wandered the streets for half a day without sensing the presence of any criminals, and couldn't help but frown and mutter to himself.
"Help! Robbery!"
Just then, a shrill female voice came from not far away.
Upon hearing this, Fujino perked up his ears and looked into the distance. He saw a man dressed in a black tracksuit and wearing a black knitted hat speeding along, while a woman in trendy clothes was shouting beside him.
Get more practice!
Fujino smiled and took off after him.
[Detective 200% Enhancement Activated: 239 seconds remaining]
With a 200% Strength Boost, Fujino quickly caught up with the purse snatcher.
When they were not far away, he delivered a powerful flying kick.
Bang!
With a muffled thud, the man who had been racing just moments before crashed straight down in front of him.
"Ah!"
The call came, and although it sounded somewhat familiar, Fujino didn't pay much attention to it.
After landing two more kicks, he gained 15 points of combat experience and then stopped.
He then picked up his handbag and walked toward the woman.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a whooshing sound accompanied by a whooshing sound filled the air.
Before your eyes, a pair of fair, white legs wearing sneakers are gradually approaching!
Instinctively, Fujino leaped behind him, and the whip kick swept straight past him.
"Who exactly is this woman?"
Fujino swallowed hard; if he hadn't reacted quickly, he would have been kicked!
He took a deep breath and carefully examined the person opposite him.
That face, that outfit!
"The Beika Fury?"
"Haa!"
Before the surprise subsided, a delicate shout rang out. This time, Fujino didn't dodge; instead, he directly raised his arms to meet the attack.
With the 100% Berserker effect, 200% system enhancement, 200% purple Enhancement Card, 20% bodyguard enhancement effect, and the fighter's 40% bonus, his combat power has now reached 560.
B-level combat power!
I wonder how his B compares to Sato Miwako's B.
Sato Miwako's whip kick went straight for his arms, and with a "bang," Fujino felt as if he had been slapped by a wild bear.
Of course, it was just a feeling; Fujino's body only trembled slightly, and then nothing more.
?
Sato Miwako saw that her second whip kick had no effect.
Under normal circumstances, someone who takes a solid whip kick from him should at least stagger backward, if not be kicked flying.
But what on earth is this strange person in front of me?
Was it all over just because his body trembled?
