Jodie: "..." Come to think of it, if the police were a little more capable and could have spotted traces of "that person" in this string of unusual cases sooner, then arrested them, the FBI would not have to work so hard.
...It was all the Tokyo police's fault!
The two people burdened with work briefly found themselves disliking each other.
The head of the police had gone off on a tangent without permission, so the enthusiastic Detective had to help solve the case. Jiang Xia asked the hotel manager beside him, "Do you have a Floor Plan of this place?"
The hotel manager answered repeatedly, jogged back to his office, and soon returned with one. Looking at the plan, he said awkwardly, "The routes here actually aren't very complicated. There's only one exit. At the time, we were all searching separately for the young lady, and people were coming and going. No one should have been able to carry the body out and bring it back."
The two hotel security guards were no longer certain either. "Maybe the water reflected the light and we saw wrong. Maybe the body had been submerged at the bottom of the pool all along?"
The hotel manager remembered something. "Right, there's a counter at the exit of the corridor by the pool. The front desk registers the identities of everyone going in and out. If someone really transported a body, the front desk should have seen it."
Inspector Megure's eyes lit up. "In that case, could it be—"
Jiang Xia said, "There's a large patch of shattered glass at the bottom of the pool. That's a little suspicious."
Inspector Megure: "..."
Inspector Megure: "..." Forget it. No more struggling. He should just focus on praying that Brother Jiang Xia solved the case soon.
