"Ding-ling-ling! Ding-ling-ling!"
Just as he had stepped out of the hospital, Xiu Xin's phone rang. He moved to the side to pick up. "Speak."
"Chief, we've confirmed the identity of that worker, but when our people arrived at his house, they found a funeral in progress. Only then did we learn that he had jumped from a building two days ago," Nakamura Shinichi reported in a low voice. The lead from the worker wearing the straw hat was dead, and with it, the most crucial clue they had was gone.
"Idiot!" Xiu Xin couldn't help but curse. Taking a glance at the increasingly distant visiting group, he had no time to say more. "Conduct a detailed search of the worker's home. Report any findings to me, that's all."
After hanging up, he followed the group.
"What's wrong?" Noticing his grim expression, Fujimoto Takayoshi deliberately lagged behind to wait for him and asked.
Xiu Xin explained the situation to him in a low voice.
