☆ 26. Meeting (including v plus more)

Meet (including v plus more)

The sky was blue and clear, the Ferris wheel was spinning slowly, and the carriage carrying the bomb left the ground and rose into the air slowly, steadily and unquestionably.

Although he said that everything would be arranged by the organization that Tsukizono Kiyoshi worked for, Kenji Hagiwara was actually a little panicked.

Fortunately, the Self-Help Society did not keep any information about Jinpei Matsuda and the bomber to themselves, but shared it with him verbatim.

All the information about the bomber is clear, so there is no problem in taking the initiative to track him and ensure Xiao Zhenping's safety.

And it is obvious that the Self-Help Society does not object to his tracking behavior. Tang Lichu even gave him a pair of headphones through which he can directly hear Yolanda's voice, and she will report the real-time location of the bomber.

Kenji Hagiwara put on the hat he had just bought and slightly pulled down the brim. November was almost winter, and wearing a hat was indeed not very common.

But this is also a helpless move.

Just as he stepped into the amusement park, a lady with a familiar voice called out his name accurately with disbelief in her voice.

Hagiwara Kenji: …

There was nothing he could do about it, his network of contacts was too wide, and Tokyo was where he had worked before. There were a lot of people at the amusement park, so it was normal to run into a few acquaintances.

But it is a bit troublesome in this situation.

He really needed to be recognized by his former classmates at the police academy or his colleagues at the Metropolitan Police Department, but he couldn't drag in ordinary people who he had only met a few times before.

He quickly pretended not to hear, and ducked down a little to hide himself in the crowd. He was tall, standing out among the shorter Japanese people, so he could only shrink as much as possible to reduce his presence.

The police officer with purple eyes smiled bitterly, in the past he had always taken it for granted that he was the focus of the crowd, and he was not used to hiding himself for a while. Fortunately, there were similar courses in the police academy, so he did not lose his composure for a while.

He simply tied his hair up and hid it in his hat. The small ponytail of his semi-long hair was not big, and it was a bit uncomfortable to put it in the cap, but it was not noticeable from the outside. A pair of bright purple drooping eyes were also hidden under his bangs.

In order to make it easier to identify the information around him, he only wore an earphone, and the black earphone was inconspicuously attached under his temples.

He raised his head slightly to look at the slowly rising Ferris wheel. His friend's familiar back looked a little lonely. He did not continue to check the bomb, but stood up and lit a cigarette.

What's going on?! Isn't smoking prohibited in the Ferris wheel cabins? Even if smoking is not prohibited, smoking in front of a bomb is really too reckless, isn't it?!

Kenji Hagiwara selectively forgot the fact that he had also smoked in front of the bomb.

"Brother Hagiwara, it's that choice question." The childish and lively voice of Riolanda in the headset was actually well-behaved at this time, showing a bit of the cuteness of a child. "Brother Matsuda really chose the people in the hospital instead of himself."

So has he given up on defusing the bomb now?

Kenji Hagiwara clenched his fists and tapped the earphone twice, signaling the artificial intelligence girl to tell him the location of the bomber.

"At one o'clock, about thirty meters away, the only person who is looking down at the remote control and smiling." Yolanda responded in a rare reliable and without any unnecessary movements.

Are you laughing?

Kenji Hagiwara became angry again.

From his angle, he could just see the man's mouth almost stretched to his ears, showing his excitement and joy that was difficult to calm down at this moment, as if blowing up a policeman was something that made him proud and excited.

...So disgusting, so disgusting.

My rationality was challenged again and again by that person's actions, and my anger gushed out like a flood that broke through a dam.

This is the kind of person who wants to hurt or even kill Xiao Zhenping. How dare he? !

Kenji Hagiwara's fingertips were clenched so hard that they turned almost white. He took a deep breath and tried to walk to the bomber without attracting attention.

While Kenji Hagiwara is locking onto the damn bomber, Wilma and Keimitsu Morobushi are also searching for him.

With the legitimate reason of "Weima's request for help", the two were finally able to mobilize the organization's surveillance to find out where the bomber went after leaving the door of Jiali Beauty.

"He was heading towards the Ferris wheel." Zhu Fujingguang's emotions were surging, but he still put on a Scottish look of indifference. He reached out and tapped the hideous-looking bomber on the screen, and analyzed concisely, "He wanted to go and watch the explosion site."

"That guy was very proud of his own behavior." Weimar could tell this with just one look. "He wanted to enjoy the moment of the explosion and was pleased with himself for being able to take revenge on the police. What a pervert, this guy."

Zhu Fu Jingguang showed an indifferent expression, his eyes were so cold that it made people feel cold: "As a member of the organization, you can still accuse other criminals of being perverted?"

His profile was tense and almost cold-blooded: "Although saying this makes me feel like Gin, but - you are not a mouse, are you?"

He never turned his head away when he spoke, because that would give Weimar no chance to look him in the face.

He didn't want Weimar to find out that he really wanted to save Matsuda, so he could only force himself to act as if he was extremely disgusted with the police on the Ferris wheel.

"Eh? Can't I say that?" Weimar seemed to have no common sense at all. He tilted his head, his expression showing the curiosity and guilt of a child. "Sorry, I won't say that."

Zhu Fu Jingguang pressed his temples almost as if he had a headache.

Is Weimar pretending or is he really so natural? If he is pretending, then he is taking a risk. Is he sure he will not be killed? Or does he have some hidden card?

The undercover's danger radar kept sounding the alarm, and he couldn't suppress his suspicion. But his intuition made him feel that the young man with chestnut hair and indigo eyes beside him really had no ill intentions.

The bomber seemed to have deliberately avoided surveillance. Zhu Fu Jingguang suppressed his anxiety and made a nonchalant expression.

"Well, I remember that guy from New Germany Beer said that we can find the bomber based on the other person's instructions." Weimar suddenly said, "Found it, here it is."

Zhu Fu Jingguang subconsciously looked at the screen in front of Weimar. Before finding the bomber, he first noticed a figure wearing a baseball cap beside him.

In the undercover course, they were taught to identify a person based on his body shape and standing habits. Zhu Fujingguang recognized him almost immediately. Even though his hair was covered and his purple eyes were hidden between his bangs, he could still recognize the true identity of the young man in front of him at a glance.

That was Kenji Hagiwara, his classmate in the police academy, who died on the same date four years ago.

He was too familiar with the other person's figure, after all, they had been together day and night for ten months. Although the time in the police academy was long, it was warm and relaxed, and it was deeply engraved in his mind and was unforgettable.

So he would never admit his mistake.

Zhu Fu Jingguang curled up his fingers. His first reaction was that this was a test or a trap, just as Yi Dahang speculated yesterday, to lure the snake out of the hole, using one of the four of them to care about the same period, intending to achieve some kind of purpose.

But he thought of Jinpei Matsuda's reaction yesterday.

As we all know, Jinpei Matsuda is a straightforward and sharp intuitive animal. Besides, Kenji Hagiwara was his childhood friend, so there is no reason for him to make a mistake.

Zhu Fu Jingguang was still very confident in this regard.

Therefore, he had more doubts and concerns about the identity of "Kenji Hagiwara" in the surveillance video.

He certainly would not mistakenly think that Kenji Hagiwara was resurrected from the dead. This was impossible. At the same time, as a sniper of the organization, Scotland knew very well that the technology mastered by the organization was not something they could imagine at will. If this Hagiwara was a product of the organization's laboratory, then everything made sense.

This also explains the attitudes of Fūya Rei and Matsuda Jinpei when they saw the note yesterday.

The organization certainly had no way of controlling the surveillance of the amusement park square, and the police soon took it over.

Like Zhufu Jingguang, Furuya Ling did not find the bomber at first glance, but immediately locked onto the back of the man in the baseball cap.

Standing posture, small movements of the hands, profile, serious facial expressions...

Hagiwara only covered the upper half of his face with a baseball cap and the shadow of his bangs, and did not wear any makeup or disguise, so the sharp and careful police officer confirmed at first sight that the other person was Kenji Hagiwara.

Following Hagiwara Kenji's line of sight, the person being stared at by the former police officer with purple eyes turned out to be the bomber who had been tracked down for four years and who had killed more than 20 explosives department police officers including Hagiwara on the same day four years ago.

Furukaya Rei suddenly stood up, picked up the walkie-talkie to inform Kazami Yuya to go in pursuit, and at the same time, he picked up his clothes and rushed outside.

The moment he stepped out of the door frame, his steps suddenly stopped, and his delayed rationality restrained his actions.

The excellent undercover agent took a deep breath, picked up the intercom and issued another order: to fix the micro device that combines eavesdropping and positioning capabilities on Kenji Hagiwara when he is not paying attention.

——The information about this matter is still vague. He needs to think carefully and not act rashly.

Time passed by, and Weimar could not help but urge Zhu Fu Jingguang. The latter glanced at him, shrugged noncommittally, and then raised his sniper rifle without saying a word.

After roughly figuring out the location, Zhu Fujingguang was able to rely on his excellent professionalism to aim at the criminal's hideous and disgusting smiling face, even though there were many people nearby.

Under Weimar's silent urging, the undercover agent from the Metropolitan Police Department narrowed one eye and calmly pulled the trigger, just like he had done countless times in the organization's missions.

The bullet flew through the air, piercing the bomber's skull at an unquestionable speed, and then accurately passed through the gaps in the crowd without accidentally hurting anyone.

The bullets flying by and the countdown that suddenly stopped in front of him made Matsuda Jinpei stunned for a moment. He subconsciously leaned on the transparent plastic board of the Ferris wheel and looked down.

The Ferris wheel was slowly descending, his vision became clearer, and his heart was beating faster for some reason.

That figure...is it him?

The figure below gradually grew larger. When it was still two or three boxes away from the ground, Matsuda Jinpei finally met those purple eyes. It was as if they had seen the past four years, looking at him through so many people.

No matter what, business was the most important thing. After quickly defusing the bomb, the curly-haired police officer finally had time to think about the brief eye contact they had just had.

Matsuda Jinpei heard the sound of his heart pounding, his blood almost boiling in his veins, and the feeling of suffocation climbing up his neck almost gripping his flesh and drowning him. But the Ferris wheel maintained its usual slow pace, moving down slowly.

In the crowd, the familiar face with purple eyes appeared just to confirm that the police officer on the Ferris wheel was all right. The childish eyes that had appeared countless times in the flashback disappeared in the crowd in just a blink of an eye, disappearing all traces, as if they had never appeared, and it seemed that the eye contact just now was just an illusion caused by the secretion of dopamine when near death.

But the curly-haired officer knew very well that it wasn't.

When Kenji Hagiwara just died in the explosion, he had frequent flashbacks of him. Sometimes, when he was just doing his normal work, he made a cup of coffee and Kenji Hagiwara appeared in front of him. The curly-haired police officer wanted to hand the coffee to his young son as usual, but he heard a shattering sound a moment after the coffee cup left his hand, and finally realized that it was just an illusion.

Over time, in order to prevent his colleagues in the explosive disposal team from continuing to look at him with such cautious expressions filled with worry and sympathy, he also learned to recognize and ignore such illusions, and habitually skipped over them to do his own work.

Recently, his superiors finally allowed him to transfer to the investigation department. After he devoted himself to investigating the bomber, he never saw the shadow of his deceased old friend again.

He could recognize the moment of eye contact just now. It was absolutely, absolutely, absolutely impossible for the emotion to surpass the reason and imagine the picture without authorization. He was very familiar with that picture. The feeling that that kind of picture might bring to people was always lacking in reality, trance, and seemed to be a beautiful scene that would be shattered in the next second. In contrast, the feeling just now was completely different. The feeling of blood rushing still remained until now. Matsuda Jinpei did not think that he was wrong.

——Nonsense, he would never mistake anyone for his childhood friend! Not only Hagi, but also Kiyo and Toki would appear, he would never make a mistake!

The speed of the Ferris wheel was so slow that it was almost torturous. Matsuda Jinpei looked down and saw green plants underneath, which were even lower than the exit of the Ferris wheel. He could not afford to jump down and remain intact. He might even damage the facilities in the amusement park.

He clenched his fists and warned himself: Take a deep breath, calm down -

At this moment, Hagiwara Kenji watched the bomber collapse, his chest stopped rising and falling, but he was surprisingly calm. He had long expected that the so-called revenge method of this "self-help society" was to kill the criminal.

He closed his eyes and looked towards the Ferris wheel, trying to find the familiar curly-haired figure between the boxes.

Box No. 72 slowly descended, and the figure in a black suit gradually became clear. The police officer leaned against the plastic transparent window of the Ferris wheel, looking down with a cigarette in his mouth.

The young man with semi-long hair bumped into those blue eyes.

After a pause of a few seconds, he looked away and sent a message through the internal channel of his mind to tell the people in the self-help society.

Kenji Hagiwara: Jinpei saw me.

He lowered his head, the channel in his mind silently updating new information, and he hid his facial features in the shadows.

Weimar: I have also made sure that Morobushi Kagemitsu saw Hagiwara. The former is also connected to Furuya Rei, so Furuya Rei should also know about it.

Yolanda's childish voice came from the earphone on one side, prompting Hagiwara Kenji's next move: "Put on two earphones at the same time, and tap five times on the left side in a row. This will slightly change the appearance of your face in the surveillance video, and it can deceive others from a distance."

Using this skill means it's time to exit.

Everything went on as planned. Kenji Hagiwara knew very well that the purpose of the Self-Help Society was to rescue Jinpei Matsuda while attracting the attention of the Red Team, so he did not ask why Yolanda did not tell him about this special function of the headset earlier.

To some extent, teammates like Kenji Hagiwara are indeed worry-free.

The young man with purple eyes took out another earphone from his trouser pocket. The former police officer who was temporarily cooperating with the self-help society followed Yolanda's instructions, raised his left hand and tapped the earphone five times in succession, but did not feel anything special afterwards.

"It's successful. Now I can't recognize it from the surveillance video." Yolanda confirmed, "Considering the distance from Matsuda Jinpei now, it should be possible--? Wait, wow!" As if she had seen some funny scene, or as if she was in a good mood because of saving Matsuda Jinpei, she returned to her lively and somewhat mischievous appearance, and exclaimed in excitement.

"What...?" Just as Kenji Hagiwara was about to ask a question, he saw the actions of Jinpei Matsuda on the Ferris wheel, and his expression froze instantly.

Let's go back a moment.

Matsuda Jinpei had just managed to calm himself down, and when he looked down, he saw a familiar figure retreating, preparing to leave the crowd and evacuate the place.

He anxiously stood up on the slightly shaking Ferris wheel box. In this box that was still some distance away from the ground, every tiny movement was a crazy dance on the edge of his sanity.

Finally, when the familiar pair of bright purple eyes disappeared, the curly-haired police officer could no longer hold back. If he got hurt, he got hurt. If he paid the money, he paid the money. If he wrote the report, he wrote the report. He almost gave up on himself and gritted his teeth, thinking, if he let that guy go this time, who knows when he will have the chance to meet him again next time.

The young man, who had practiced boxing, used his fists as his best weapons. He threw a straight punch that mercilessly broke the fragile plastic plate. He ignored the red and slightly scratched fists and jumped out. He ignored the shouts of his superiors and colleagues in the search section, rolled over to cushion the impact when he landed, and then ran desperately in one direction.

When Kenji Hagiwara turned back, he witnessed the moment he jumped.

The police officer jumped into the water with his back to the sun, as if he was bathing in the golden light. Combined with his actions and the aura he had just displayed, there was a strange beauty to him, as if a devil had descended in the skin of an angel.

Anyway, Kenji Hagiwara was shocked.

Yolanda had already exploded on the other end of the headset, and her excited tone was as if she also wanted to rush onto the Ferris wheel, break the transparent window and jump down.

Hagiwara Kenji thought desperately, he was worthy of being called Jinpei, as he had easily won the favor of an artificial intelligence girl - it would be even better if he could be a positive role model.

"If Brother Zhenping comes a little closer, he will definitely be able to take off Brother Hagiwara's vest!" she said expectantly.

Has the name evolved from "Matsuda brother" to the more intimate "Jinpei brother"?

Also, are you expecting him to recognize me and beat the shit out of me, Yolanda?!

Are you such a person?!

Hagiwara Kenji said sadly: "I'm really sad, Yori-chan."

Yolanda laughed happily when she heard that, and her clear laughter almost penetrated the earphones.

"According to my data, whether he has found you now or not, he will punch you when you meet!"

Hagiwara Kenji: …

He lowered his head and blended perfectly into the crowd that dispersed around him. He covered his chest with his hands in an exaggerated and sad manner, and whispered into the headset in a long voice: "It doesn't have to be so heartbreaking, Yori-chan——"

"Lilililil," Yolanda made a face in the computer space that Hagiwara Kenji couldn't see. "Friendly reminder, the container on the headset is essentially an interference to optics. The closer you are, the more likely you are to notice an abnormality."

Looking at Jinpei Matsuda who was running towards him, Kenji Hagiwara suddenly realized that his dodging was useless. His childhood friend had already locked onto him on the Ferris wheel, and as long as he got closer, the other party would definitely notice his abnormality.

The disguised purple eyes once again met the familiar eyes, but this time Hagiwara Kenji was not as sure as before.

The sky was clear and the clouds could not cover the intense sun. The sky in late autumn was very high and deep, and fallen leaves were passing by, floating in the air like rootless grass leaves, swaying here and there but never falling to the ground.

A few wisps of wind passed across their faces, and time seemed to freeze at this moment——

Not settled.

Because within that one second of their eye contact, Hagiwara Kenji turned and ran, and Matsuda Jinpei started chasing him.

Yolanda clapped excitedly in the headset, and the computer started playing the "clap clap" sound in a very cooperative manner, which formed a strange rhythm with Hagiwara Kenji's steps. She said excitedly: "Wow, this is the most classic plot that Sharon and I mentioned! The legendary 'he escapes, he chases, he can't escape even if he has wings?'"

"Come on, Jinpei-nii! Try to catch Hagiwara-nii and beat him up!"

Hagiwara Kenji: “…”

He collapsed and said: "Yori-chan, which side are you on——"

A body that has been soaked in nutrient solution for nearly four years is really not as good as Matsuda Jinpei's who has been exercising for four years. Hagiwara Kenji feels that there is no point in running anymore because he will be caught up sooner or later.

Just as Yolanda said, no matter if the encounter comes earlier or later, he will definitely not be able to escape from Jinpei Matsuda's punch.

"Is it okay to meet him now?" he asked Yolanda in the headset while running.

"Of course not!" the little girl said happily, "Even if there is, Brother Tang Li will take care of it!"

Hagiwara Kenji: …

I suddenly felt that having such a member, Tang Lichu must have had a hard time.

He took a deep breath, stopped, pulled off one of his earphones, and his purple eyes met the familiar Xiao Xunran again.

The most confused people in the audience: Jinpei Matsuda’s colleagues in Soichi.

Worried → Reassured → Shocked → Matsuda Jinpei, come back here, where the hell are you going? !

Yes, Yolanda’s hidden attribute is revealed: she is Zhenping-chan Duwei!

So when Matsuda was in the Ferris wheel, she didn't have the energy to cause trouble hhh

Hagi collapsed: Who are you helping?
