2 Breathing in water after suffocation
◎Gin: Searching for treasure in the river~◎
“Hmm…”
Under the gap, Chihoko Hanano held Furiya Rei with one hand, covered her little daughter's mouth with the other hand, and made the "hush" sound with her mouth.
There was no light source in the gap, but because of the close distance between them, Furiya Rei could feel the unique breath of Hanano Chihoko. Although he felt a momentary awkwardness, he nodded in cooperation.
Hanano Chiheko breathed a sigh of relief, but suddenly her face changed drastically and she lunged forward.
"Bang, bang—" The hard bullet box hit the rock wall, making a terrifying sound.
"Oh, I knew that one little mouse could attract another one!" The tall and thin man smiled sinisterly and pointed his gun at Hanano Chihoko who protected Furuya Rei in an instant.
The pitch-black muzzle seemed to be about to shoot a bullet at the next moment, and Hanano Chiheko's heart was beating like a drum. At this moment, Fūtani Rei under him suddenly pressed Hanano Chiheko's wrist in a subtle way.
In a flash, Chihoko Hanano quickly turned over and rolled to the side while holding Rei Furuya.
"A mere trick." The tall and thin man turned the gun and was about to shoot, but at this time, Fūya Rei, who was pressing under Hanano Chiheko, took advantage of the man's distraction and threw the gun with full force.
"puff!"
The piece of cake in Fūya Rei's hand instantly hit the tall and thin man's face.
"Ah, my eyes!" The tall and thin man tried to wipe away the white spots in front of his eyes, and shot in the direction of Furuya Rei and Hanano Chihoko in anger with one hand.
“Bang, bang, bang—”
Sparks flew instantly, and in the hail of bullets, Hanano Chihoko pulled Furiya Rei and hid here and there, running wildly all the way.
"Aren't we going to the police station?" The sound of wind and gunshots rustled across his cheeks, and Fūya Rei had no choice but to shout louder.
"No, that guy's accomplices might lie in wait on the way to the police station."
And there are accomplices!
Fūya Rei was surprised and looked up slightly, and saw that the only river flowing through the police station was in front of him.
An idea popped into Fūya Rei's mind, and as if to verify his idea, Hanano Chihoko jumped into the lake with him.
As soon as the two of them appeared, they saw a dark figure with a cake on its face running towards them from a distance.
The two of them dived into the river again.
"Asshole, where have you been?"
The tall, thin man searched the riverbank.
In the river, Chiheko Hanano gradually used up the air in her mouth, bubbles overflowed from the corners of her mouth, and she gradually sank to the bottom of the river.
Furiya Rei leaned over and held Hanano Chihoko's hand. The wound on Hanano Chihoko's cheek was still bleeding.
The rapid current in the river awakened the little remaining consciousness of Hanano Chiheko. In Hanano Chiheko's eyes, Furutani Rei's light golden hair spread out with the ripples, fluffy and soft. Hanano Chiheko stared at the hair for a while, and suddenly felt that Furutani Rei was getting closer and closer.
The next moment, Hanano Chiheko's cheek was held up tenderly, and then oxygen flowed into Hanano Chiheko's mouth, continuously, as if endless.
"hateful!"
The man searched in vain and was filled with anger. Seeing Gin leisurely, he immediately got angry and said, "Are you blind if he's lost? Go find him for me!"
She... had been down there for five minutes. Gin's patience was completely worn out by the man. With a "bang", the man fell to the ground in horror.
The smell of gunpowder dissipated in the air, Gin jumped into the river, his dark green pupils scanning every corner.
Finally, they found the two people who had sunk to the bottom of the river hugging each other.
Soon after, a raging fire broke out in the house in the distance, and all the blood and strangeness were burned to ashes in the flames.
The next day, when Fūya Rei woke up, he was lying on a hospital bed.
Chi-chan...
Fūya Rei struggled to get up and grabbed the nurse who was changing his IV drip, "Excuse me..."
The host's voice interrupted the TV in the ward. "Now, a breaking news story. Around nine o'clock last night, a fire broke out at Miyano Hospital. We've confirmed that Elena has died in the fire. Her husband, Miyano Atsushi, and adopted daughter, Hanano Chihoko, are still missing. If anyone has spotted them, please contact the police immediately."
As Rei Furuya looked at the photo of Chihoko Hanano on TV, his purple-gray eyes dimmed.
At the same time, in the private ward mixed with the smell of disinfectant, Chihoko Hanano opened her eyes and looked at the silver-haired boy beside the bed.
Gin's gaze shifted from the antihistamine injection report in his hand to Hanano Chihoko's face wrapped in gauze.
This face seemed exactly the same as the one in his memory, but the difference was that in his memory, she died in Gin's arms.
Gin hid all the emotions surging in his eyes, "Do you remember me?"
Chihoko Hanano looked at the strange yet familiar boy in front of her, thought for a while, and the dizziness in her head became stronger.
Chihoko Hanano raised her hands to cover her head uncomfortably, but as soon as she tilted her head, the bandage on her face pressed down on the wound.
"hiss--"
Chihoko Hanano cried out in pain.
Gin reached out to stop Hanano Chiheko's movements, "If you don't want to be disfigured, don't move."
"Who are you?" Hanano Chiheko frowned and asked, "Who... am I?"
There was no trace of surprise in Gin's eyes, "Brother."
"I am the only relative you have in this world."
"Brother...Brother?" Hanano Chiheko called out hesitantly, trying to regain even a little bit of familiarity with the past, but unfortunately to no avail.
"What's my name then?"
Gin touched Hanano Chiheko's head, his eyes fluttering for a moment, and he called out the name that was seared into his memory again, "Kurosawa Kazuko."
Hanano Chihoko felt the warmth under Gin's palm. Her intuition told her that the man in front of her had no ill will towards her. Her defenses gradually relaxed. "It's a nice name."
So, Chihoko Hanano moved in with Gin's family, and they hired a nanny to take care of her daily life.
For Gin, this place is more like a place where he settles down than a home.
Gin is very busy, really busy, and only comes back once a week or even once a month.
The moonlight shines through the curtains, casting a warm yellow glow on the sleeping Chihoko Hanano.
Gin, who had just finished his mission, couldn't help but close the door gently. He sat down beside Hanano Chiheko's bed and watched her sleep for a while.
"Hmm..." Hanano Chiheko's eyelashes moved, and she opened her eyes. She found that there was suddenly a tall and strong man beside the bed. She was not surprised at all, and stretched as usual, "Brother!"
"Yeah." Gin responded, "Did I wake you up?"
Hanano Chihoko shook her head and took Gin's lightly calloused hand along his arm. "Aren't you cold?"
Gin let Hanano Chiheko manipulate him, "Have you chosen a place for your internship?"
Exposed?
Chihoko Hanano's heart was beating a little faster. From her interactions with Gin, she gradually realized Gin's hostile attitude towards the Sakura police.
Therefore, after confirming the internship location with the medical school, Chihoko Hanano tried to hide it as much as possible and was in fear all day long.
Hanano Chihoko continued to fiddle with her hands seemingly unintentionally. "Oh, that, brother, how did you know?"
"The suitcase was poorly hidden." Gin's face showed a seriousness that was rare when he was dealing with Hanano Chiheko. "Come back every month and stay for two days. I want to see you, understand?"
"Oh, I promise!" Chihoko Hanano raised her hand and swore, with a flattering smile on her face.
From childhood to adulthood, the school that Gin arranged for Hanano Chiheko has always been relatively closed, and Hanano Chiheko does not have many opportunities to contact the outside world.
Therefore, the internship opportunity she had fought so hard to obtain this time was even more hard-earned, and she couldn't let it go.
Under the street light, Gin's black Porsche 356A was parked.
The car door opened and closed again. Vodka looked at Gin in the back seat and said, "Brother, are you really going to let Kazuko go to the police academy for internship?"
Cars came by from time to time on the road, illuminating Gin's dim profile inside the car. Gin held the Seven Stars cigarette in his mouth farther away and said, "She wants to go."
Vodka immediately understood, and although he was still a little worried, he didn't say anything more, started the car and slowly left.
Chihoko Hanano's internship at the police academy is done together with her internship partner Tomoaki Amadeu. With this strongest support, Chihoko Hanano is unexpectedly free and can even use her free time to do her own things.
Thinking about her unfinished thesis from her supervisor, Chihoko Hanano made a cup of coffee and immediately plunged into the battle.
Nearing midnight, Chihoko Hanano finished organizing the last piece of literature and breathed a sigh of relief. When she looked at her watch, she realized that it was already past ten o'clock in the evening.
Chihoko Hanano closed her computer and stretched back. Her long, straight black hair hung smoothly down from the back of her chair, glistening slightly under the night light.
Her body was stretched to the maximum, and Chihoko Hanano breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly felt her hands were empty.
Oh, the orange cat I just adopted is missing.
Chihoko Hanano looked around, but there was no sign of the orange cat.
"Tangerine?" Chihoko Hanano leaned over and called quietly.
Shinichiro Zhiming, who was on duty with him, heard some noise and stuck his head out. "Senior sister, are you looking for the cat?"
"Hmm, I wonder where that guy has gone again." Hanano Chiheko searched the cabinet but to no avail. "He's nowhere here, maybe he ran away!"
Hanano Chihezi thought about it and immediately stood up and picked up the windbreaker hanging by the door, "Don't worry, I'll go out and look for it."
"Hey, Senior Sister!" Xinde Zhiming hurried out the door, "Senior Sister and I will go together. It's so late, it's better for us to go together."
Hanano Chihoko knew what Aishide Tomoaki meant, "Junior brother, you are a good person!"
Xinchu Zhiming has curved eyebrows and eyes.
Under the bright moonlight and the colorful cherry blossom trees, stood a pair of boys in police academy uniforms.
The blond and dark-skinned Rei Furuya and the naturally curly-haired Jinpei Matsuda stood facing each other, like the pros and cons in a debate, engaging in a deep and fist-to-flesh communication about each other's attitudes towards the profession of police.
The two forces collided, startling a field of cherry blossoms. The orange cat that was napping on the cherry tree screamed "Meow!", lost its balance, and fell straight down.
"Hmm..." Fūya Ling was caught off guard and was covered with fur on his head. He half-knelt down and tried to take the "cat cake" off in a panic.
Matsuda Jinpei, who had just spit out his dentures and was still in a state of preparation, was startled by this sudden situation. After realizing that the orange cat was helping him to take revenge to some extent, he couldn't help laughing out loud and walked forward to catch the cat while laughing.
The orange cat was quite frightened, scratching around with its chubby paws. Matsuda Jinpei had never dealt with this kind of little creature before, and the two of them and the cat were stuck in a strange stalemate.
The movement not far away attracted Xinchu Zhiming's attention: "Senior sister, over there!"
"Huh?" Hanano Chiheko turned around and saw the familiar, chubby orange boy. She hurried over and said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Why are you on my face, Orange boy?"
When Jōgō Rei heard the voice, his heart inexplicably tightened, and even his action of catching the cat paused slightly.
After the concerted efforts of four people, the cat was finally successfully arrested and let out a protest, "Meow!"
The cat biscuit was taken away, and what came into Hanano Chiheko's eyes was Furiya Rei's fluffy golden hair like an orange cub.
I feel some unbearable itching...
Chihoko Hanano put her hands behind her back and pretended nothing had happened.
Shinde Zhiming noticed something carefully and whispered a reminder: "Senior Sister."
Hanano Chiheko suddenly came to her senses and looked at the bruises on Fūya Rei's face with an apologetic look, "This wound..."
Seeing that Furuya Rei was inexplicably quiet, Matsuda Jinpei stepped forward, his tone filled with mysterious pride, "That was my fight, it had nothing to do with that fat orange."
Furuya Rei's attention was clearly not on this. He stepped forward and grabbed Hanano Chihoko's wrist, "Chi-chan?!"
