A mini red car was driving on the busy streets of Tokyo.
“I’m sorry,” Masako Yangshan, who was driving, said to Zhao Yu apologetically,”I’m so small, so it’s normal for me to buy a smaller car. It’s just that I’m sorry, Mr. Detective Zhao …”
“Masako’s smile was very sweet, but her voice was a little shrill, revealing her outgoing personality.”
“Zhao Yu squirmed in the small seat and asked,”How long do we have to walk?”
“Well, if it’s the current road conditions, I’m afraid it’ll take more than an hour?” Masako laughed.”This is Tokyo after all!”
“By the way,” she asked curiously,”isn’t that fierce-looking uncle your assistant?” Is he really not going to travel with us?”
“Don’t worry about him,” Zhao Yu said casually.”He’s always been crazy and does things his own way. We don’t know when he’ll come out again!”
“Although Zhao Yu said so, he knew very well that Lee Bencheng was secretly protecting him.”
“As the king of special agents, disguising was his basic skill.”
“Actually, there’s no point in going to the scene,” said Masako Yangshan.”At that time, the location was quite remote, but now, it’s a busy area with high-rise buildings. You can’t see anything there!”
“It’s okay, I just wanted to feel it …” Zhao Yu closed his eyes and started to think about his future investigation plan.”
“Zhao sang, please forgive me for being presumptuous, but I’m really, really curious.” Masako Yangshan had always been lonely.”The victim … Is it related to you in any way?”

“It’s fine. Someone just entrusted me to investigate this case!” Zhao Yu replied casually.”
“Oh, really? This client must have a special relationship with you, right?” Masako Yangshan smiled.”I invited you so many times before, but you were very busy …”
“Those are all major unsolved cases that suit your taste, but you didn’t come. This time, it’s just such an unremarkable case. It’s really … Enviable!”
“You’re really a reporter,” Zhao Yu said with a smile.”I was really busy at that time. Have you heard about the female corpse under the bridge case?”
“And now, I have some time …”
“The female corpse under the bridge, of course I’ve heard of it! I heard that the murderer is imitating the hanging bridge female corpse case in Bucharest, right?” Masako Yangshan said excitedly,”the content of your report is too little. I believe that the process of solving this case must have been very exciting, right?”
“Zhao sang, can you tell me more about it when you’re free?” Masako clapped her hands and said,”I was just worried about not having any album content! If I can write the manuscript for the female corpses under the bridge case exclusively, I can make a small profit again!”
Masako was so excited that she didn’t hold the steering wheel. The light car started shaking and almost hit the car next to it.
“Oh, oh, oh … Be careful …”
“With Zhao Yu’s reminder, Masako held the steering wheel tightly and said,”I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I was too excited …”
“No problem,” Zhao Yu agreed readily.”After we’ve investigated the sunflowers case, I’ll tell you!”
“That’s great, you know? When we first met in Seoul I had a feeling that you were destined to be my benefactor!” Masako said excitedly,”every time I see you, I’ll definitely have good luck!”
Tsk tsk …
“Listening to Masako’s compliments, Zhao Yu felt strange. No one had ever said such things to him before.”
“Once upon a time, everyone said that he was a jinx, and that people would die wherever he went.”
“Well …” Zhao Yu took the information and asked,”miss Ping Cheng, what was your job at that time? Are you still a student?”
“No, she had already graduated from college at that time,” said Masako Yangshan.”She was trying out for a job at a real estate company. She was killed less than a month after she started working there!”
“She … Who else is in her family? How’s the family situation?” Zhao Yu asked again.”
“It’s hard to imagine that she had four older brothers and two younger sisters,” said Masako Yangshan.”At that time, families with many children like this were quite common.”
“So, Xinjia in Ping Cheng is actually rather unremarkable at home. Her family’s situation can only be described as average. None of her older brothers have completed their studies, and most of them are in small businesses!”
“What about his personality?” Zhao Yu asked again,”what kind of person is miss Ping Cheng?”
“I don’t know,” Masako said without hesitation.”You only told me a few hours ago. It’s already amazing that I could get the information!”
“The investigation record that I have is not from the police. So … If we want to know about miss Ping Cheng’s personality, we have to ask her family!”
“Then … I’ll leave my investigation to you!” Zhao Yu said,”let’s go to a special restaurant tonight. I’ll treat you!”
“Allido,” Masako’s bell-like laughter rang out.”Thank you so much! However, I’m the host now, so I should be the one treating you!”

“Alright, I’ll follow your arrangements!” As Zhao Yu spoke, he looked at the invisible detector in his head out of habit, but there was no abnormal reaction on the detector, which meant that he was safe.”
“This case has to be taken slowly. After all, so many years have passed!” Masako said,”I was still a child when the case happened!”
“I heard that, because some newspapers used Van Gogh’s famous words,” Zhao Yu said,”so, this case is also called the Van Gogh case, right?”
“Oh? Masako shook her head and said,”I’ve never heard of this before. It’s really new … I’ve been writing case reports and s for so long. Why haven’t I heard of it before?”
“Van Gogh’s famous saying, what famous saying?”
“Everyone has a fire in their heart, but the people who pass by only see smoke.” Zhao Yu read out the famous saying.”
“Wow, it sounds like a crime,” Masako said.”In that case, I’ll investigate it!”
“Van Gogh … Why is he related to Van Gogh? Is it sunflower?”
“And the ear that was cut off,” Zhao Yu said.”Van Gogh was also missing an ear!”
“Left ear, left ear?” Masako asked.”
“Right!” Zhao Yu replied,”however, whether Van Gogh had lost his left ear or not is still debatable. Some people saw that his right ear was missing from the self-portrait, but some people said that the self-portraits at that time were all drawn in front of the mirror, so Van Gogh should have lost his left ear!”
“Yeah, that’s interesting …” Masako asked again,”then, how did he lose his ears?”
“There are different opinions,” Zhao Yu said.”Some say that he was cut off when he was fighting with someone else, some say that he cut himself …”
“Cut it off? “I don’t know much about Van Gogh. I didn’t expect … There to be so many stories behind him, but …” Masako shook her head and said,”I can’t think of how the case of Xinjia in Ping Cheng is related to a Netherlands artist. This might just be a coincidence, right?”
“Whether it’s a coincidence or not, it’s true that the murderer has never been caught!” Zhao Yu asked,”you’ve read the case file. Are there any suspects?”
