Until she finds someone reliable to entrust her with her duties, Yoruichi Toyama has to protect Akemi Miyano on her own.
But this "reliable person" was someone he already had in mind.
I just didn't expect that Mingzhi would beat me to it.
Should we tell the truth now? ...
Yoruichi Toyama silently stroked the black cat under her arm.
You decide what to do...
Sensing that Yoruichi Toyama was seeking his opinion, Taro replied sullenly.
I can offer suggestions on completing system tasks, but I've only recently taken over the Kindaichi world and am not familiar with them yet.
"Really? You don't even know him?"
Yoichi Toyama's mind was a bit confused, and he blurted out those words without thinking. He even pointed at Kengo Akechi across from him with some surprise.
The two stared at each other for a moment, then, seeing Mingzhi's curious expression, they suddenly realized how awkward the situation was.
"Ahem..." Yoruichi Toyama coughed and picked up Taro, shaking him in front of Akechi. "This is my cat, Kotaro."
【Taro! My name is Taro!】
The black cat bared its teeth and meowed loudly, which actually sounded like it was greeting someone.
Mingzhi then placed one hand on his chest and bowed politely.
“I am wise and capable. It’s a pleasure to meet you. Please take care of me.”
Taro immediately let out a satisfied meow.
[Hey, you're a good guy... Host, this guy's a good one, we'll look after him from now on.]
"So, now everyone knows each other." Yoruichi Toyama completely ignored Taro's offbeat remarks and nodded to Akechi.
This was the first time he had greeted this person since they met.
"Inspector Mingzhi, would you like to come home with me for a bit?"
...
Back at their rented apartment, Yoruichi Toyama took out her keys to open the door and casually reminded Akechi, "When Akemi... my cousin, comes back in a little while, don't tell her you're a police officer yet, she's a bit timid."
Mingzhi responded with an "Oh," but it's hard to say whether there was a hint of sarcasm in his tone.
Thinking about it carefully, it's a blatant lie to say that someone who dared to lead a bank robbery was "cowardly".
However, Yoruichi Toyama quickly lost her sense of guilt.
As soon as I entered, before I even had a chance to look around, I saw Akemi Miyano sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a coffee cup, looking very relaxed.
"Oh, you're back?" Toyama Yoru asked instinctively.
"I didn't go out?" Because she was very familiar with him, Miyano Akemi answered without even thinking.
Then the two of them stared at each other for a while.
"Oh, hehe..." Yoruichi Toyama laughed awkwardly, glaring at the person standing next to her with a serious expression out of the corner of her eye.
This guy's a police officer! He's lying the moment he opens his mouth!
“Mingmei, this Mr. Mingzhi is a friend I just met at Mr. Mao’s coffee shop.”
"Hello." Upon seeing the visitor, Miyano Akemi stood up and bowed politely. "I am Hayashi Akemi."
Akechi returned the greeting politely, then blinked and looked at Yoruichi Toyama: "Macross?"
Wow! You, a top student, watch cartoons too?!
Yoruichi Toyama was internally ranting and raving, but on the surface, she chuckled twice more.
"What a coincidence, isn't it? Her name is quite common among Chinese people..."
Anyway, in your Kindaichi world... no, I mean in the Japanese ACG community, Chinese names have always been strange.
It's probably... impossible to tell the difference...
Compared to Yoruichi Toyama's slightly disheveled state, Akemi Miyano remained quite calm.
He smiled at the two men and said, "Mr. Mingzhi, please have a seat. I'll make you some tea."
Watching her skillfully enter the kitchen and bustle about like a true mistress of the house, Yoruichi Toyama gradually relaxed.
This is our territory now, what's there to be afraid of?
With my current skills, how could I not be able to beat him... uh...
...National team fencer?
This guy has way too many character traits!
Who exactly is the time traveler? ...
Yoruichi thought helplessly, but Akechi remained silent, sitting quietly on the sofa, seemingly waiting for him to break the silence first.
"Yoruichi-nii!" Akemi Miyano's clear voice rang out from the kitchen. "Come here for a second! I can't find the tea leaves."
Yoruichi Toyama agreed and, as she walked over, casually picked up Taro and placed him next to Akechi.
"Kotaro-kun, please keep the guest company for me."
The black cat meowed, looking quite displeased.
