2965 [Earth-Binding Spirit Bourbon]

In the woods on the side of the public toilet.
Feeling the vibration in his pocket, Amuro bowed and jumped off the treetops. He patted the dust on his hands, took out his cell phone and looked at his email.
Seeing the message from Jiang Xia, a policeman who failed to find a gun sighed silently and went back: [Drag for another 5 minutes.]
Then he stuffed his phone back into his pocket and looked up at the quiet woods.
——I have searched all the grass and treetops, and now I am almost three feet tall in the ground, but reason has told him that Calvados can't smash a pit with one shot and let the splashed soil bury the gun.
"Where did that gun go?" Amuro tsk, seized the last time, and wandered on this land again unwillingly, like a resentful earth-bound spirit. "Can someone take Calvados' gun away in the short two minutes I left?"
...
On the other side of the street.
After hearing about the robbers, Jiang Xia looked at the cell phone that had just received the new news. Then he looked at Officer Takagi and spoke slowly: "Tell me about the passing, and there are also the testimony of those witnesses."
Officer Takagi: "..." This sentence seems familiar. The person on the phone pretended to be Jiang Xia. This person really knows Jiang Xia. No wonder he was unfortunately caught...
While he was thinking about it, he was flipping through the notes honestly and told Jiang Xia about the information written on it. By the way, he also told the mysterious man about the follow-up after hearing it: "He asked me to go to the coffee shop owner. I was about to go over, but when I looked up, I saw you coming."
"That's it." Jiang Xia thought for a while, "I remember when the owner of the coffee shop was placing a billboard outside the shop, he saw the passing 'robbers dressed in black clothes and 1.7 meters tall'... Then, as he said, go to the coffee shop first."
...
The owner of the cafe looked like a heart that loved filming police and gangster dramas. As soon as he saw Officer Takagi enter the door, his eyes lit up: "How is it? Have you caught the robber? The clues I provided are very useful!"
Officer Takagi smiled awkwardly: "Not yet, but it should be soon." As he said that, he looked at Jiang Xia quietly, curious why the key to solving the case lies in the little citizen boss.
Jiang Xia stood at the door and pushed it open and did not close it again. He looked at the cafe owner and pointed out the door: "If you want to catch the robber, you need a little help."
The boss was stunned and misunderstood something, and suddenly became timid. He whispered: "Well, I am a brain-based player and I can't catch robbers on my own. My wife will be worried."
Jiang Xia shook her head: "No need to catch me, you just need to go out and stand for a while."
"Stand for a while? Well..." The cafe owner walked out of the door inexplicably and stood in the sun, "Is that true?"
Officer Takagi hurriedly followed him and walked around to the cafe owner to look at it. He was stunned: "Why did your glasses turn black?"
"Ah? You said this." The boss pushed the pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, which were getting darker and darker, and said proudly, "This is the color-changing glasses that have been popular recently. After being illuminated by a certain degree of ultraviolet rays, it will automatically turn into sunglasses - how about it, it's very fun."
Officer Takagi's mouth twitched: "You saw a robber outdoors, which means that at that time, your glasses were actually a pair of sunglasses..."
The cafe owner was stunned and realized after realizing that looking at things through tinted lenses will indeed affect the perception of color. In other words, the robber is likely not wearing black clothes, but just wearing some other dark clothes.
"..." He felt guilty and cleared his throat and emphasized, "I won't mention the color of the clothes for now. At least I can be sure that his height is about 1.7 meters - because I am 1.7 meters. After I stand up, we are almost as tall as we are. This is absolutely impossible to be wrong!"
However, Officer Takagi had lost trust in this seemingly reliable adult, and he sighed: "But two female junior high school students who saw the suspect said that he was a whole head taller than the crowd and must be above 1.8 meters tall."
Jiang Xia interrupted: "I remember you said that the two girls were buying clothes in the clothing store and saw the robbers through the window - go to that store to take a look."
...
The two said goodbye to the coffee shop owner, walked a short distance and arrived at the entrance of the clothing store.
There is a subway exit to the right of this store and a bus stop to the left.
Jiang Xia looked around and asked Officer Takagi: "When the robbers passed here, there should be a lot of people leaving the subway exit and heading to the bus station. The section here is very narrow, and when a large number of people are moving in the same direction, the robbers want to go upstream - what would you do if it was you?"
Officer Takagi stood on the street as he listened to Jiang Xia's words, and a large number of numb people who rushed to the bus after getting off the subway seemed to appear in his mind.
At this time, if you want to pass them quickly...
Officer Takagi put himself in his shoes and thought about it, suddenly remembering the way Jiang Xia was wandering on the street while walking on the curb.
He had a flash of inspiration and jumped up: "In order to avoid the group of people, the robber jumped on the curb stone and ran through this stretch! - No wonder the two girls thought he was taller than the crowd. He was wearing a helmet and was stepping on the curb stone under his feet, so he had a little more height out of thin air. If you take these words... the height of the robber described by the owner of the cafe is actually correct!"
"A height of 1.7 meters, wait, if it is 1.7 meters..."
Officer Takagi suddenly remembered something: the old man who was knocked down by the robber at first seemed to say that the robber was a woman in blue clothes.
But later, I heard the testimony of "The robber is 1.8 meters tall" from a junior high school student, so I subconsciously felt that the robber was a man.
But now, once the height is reduced, there are also women with a height of 1.7 meters... So is that robber a man or a woman?
"Speaking of this, I remember the suspect in the orchestra who likes to dress up as a woman while singing. When he looked closely, he was indeed wearing a pair of red earrings on his ears... Could it be that the old man mistakenly recognized his gender because of those eye-catching earrings?"
"No, when the old man was knocked down, the robber was wearing a helmet, so he shouldn't see his ears. If the robber had hit the helmet and was seen at the time... uh, his face was 24k pure man, the old man wouldn't have provided such testimony."
"Oh, so is the robber a man or a woman?"
Officer Takagi remembered Mikako Sato who was dating in the distance, and his anxious eyes turned to Exia.
