You plan to go back early in the next few days because you need to go home to tamper with data and search for information on the computer.

I put up a notice and agreed with the chef to change the closing time to 8pm.

Someone deflated the tire of your bicycle, and you only noticed it when you unlocked it. It also seems that the valve core was damaged.

you:……

Why did one or two of them want to attack the bicycle? ! Can you just let the bicycle go? ? ! The bicycle is innocent! !

I don't know which naughty kid did it, or if someone did it on purpose. You narrowed your eyes. You still have a deep impression of those fake policemen yesterday. Although you deleted the surveillance records, those guys may come back to test you again.

You give up the idea of ​​taking a taxi home. After all, you are not sure whether there is a car arranged for you to take you to a place you don't even know.

Just walk home and consider it as exercise.

This time is also the rush hour, and there are many pedestrians on the road. You put your hands in your pockets and shuttle through the bustling crowd.

Because of the bicycle incident, you are now in a state of relative alertness. Naturally, you notice a man in a coat with a black cap and a gray Toyota not far behind you.

To make sure it wasn't a coincidence, you deliberately took a zigzag route twice, crossing the street.

“…”

Tsk, you are so persistent.

You know some anti-tracking techniques, and the best way to get rid of them in this situation is to go through the hall. Your eyes are locked on a supermarket with multiple entrances and exits in different directions.

Supermarkets are always crowded places, with people walking by with their carts, and children following their parents, looking around and casting curious eyes on all kinds of packaging bags.

When you passed the clothing area, you pretended to glance at the floor-length mirror unconsciously, and it seemed that the man in the coat was no longer behind you.

Did you get rid of it...?

You walked around a few more times anxiously, and after making sure that the person was no longer within your sight, you picked up a stick of gum and walked out from another exit.

The street lights emit a cold white light, which can barely illuminate the road below, but cannot illuminate everything around you clearly. You step on the brick sidewalk, which needs to be renovated. There are broken bricks and empty shallow pits from time to time. You focus your attention on the ground under your feet.

A big hand suddenly stretched out from the fork in the alley ahead and dragged you in!

You are stunned for only a second, and then your body reacts quickly. You grab the opponent's wrist, kick forward, and then press down on the opponent's body with your center of gravity.

The man also reacted quickly. He bent his elbow and hit your left chest. A cold light flashed in his hand.

It's a knife!

You quickly let go and stepped back to avoid the sharp blade, leaving a long cut on your coat. You can imagine what it would feel like if this thing stabbed you.

The man in the coat did not give you long time to think. Under the duckbill cap was a strange man's face. He pulled out a gun from his arms. The moment you caught a glimpse of the gun, you had already realized the current situation. Regardless of the knife in his other hand, you raised your foot and kicked his wrist holding the gun. The man's hand trembled but he finally held the gun handle tightly.

You must not let him take out the gun! You grit your teeth and close the distance between you two again, trying to force him to let go by breaking his wrist. He seems to sneer and raises the knife in his other hand. The blade flashes a cold white light under the moonlight.

An agile black shadow rushed in from the alley, and with a "bang", the man in the coat was knocked to the ground by a punch. The gun in his hand swung in an arc in the air, and you raised your foot to kick the gun away.

Matsuda's punch was accurate and fierce. It was only a split second. When you looked up again, you saw Matsuda Jinpei holding the opponent's knife-holding hand with one hand, pressing him to the ground. Matsuda's face was gloomy, but his tone was still cheerful: "Sir, it's better not to pick up these dangerous items casually, okay?"

The man in the coat struggled violently, but Matsuda knocked him unconscious with a quick elbow, then pulled handcuffs out of his pocket and handcuffed his hands.

"Matsuda? Why are you here?" you asked in surprise.

Matsuda Jinpei stood up and straightened his clothes, his tone still mixed with coldness: "Why, if I don't come now, will I come to collect your body later?"

"...I could have dodged it just now. I just wanted to get away from his gun first." You explained, "His knife can't hurt me. As long as I..."

Matsuda interrupts you directly: "How did you get involved with these guys?" He raised his eyes, his expression was not happy, "They have knives and guns, they are really powerful." He said with sarcasm in his tone.

"..." You paused, "Maybe it was a robbery? After all, the store manager looks pretty rich."

"..." Matsuda looked at you with a half-smile, "Jiang Lai, you really look down on me. Are you making up this excuse to fool a child?"

"You haven't answered me yet, how did you get here?" You asked, changing the subject.

"I swapped shifts with a colleague," Matsuda Jinpei raised his head slightly, "and borrowed his car to follow you. I noticed something was wrong with you this morning. The symptoms of a stiff neck are different from what you are experiencing."

That gray Toyota? You immediately think.

"I didn't expect you to have a few tricks to counter-track me," Matsuda shrugged. "But... based on a little calculation, I think you might subconsciously head for the exit from your home, so I turned around."

"So..." Matsuda changed the subject and turned back, "You should explain what's wrong with you, right?"

He wasn’t wearing sunglasses, his dark eyes staring straight at you: “Take off your scarf.”

"No," you squeezed your scarf, "It's too cold."

"Okay, let me tell you straight, you've been strangled? Yesterday," Matsuda leaned against the wall on the other side, "combined with what that person did today, he really wanted to kill you - what did you do? Or, what did you see?"

"..." You didn't expect Matsuda to reason this far, but you still didn't intend to let him get involved in these things. "Are you questioning me with this tone? I don't know why this person is targeting me."

Matsuda Jinpei narrowed his eyes. He still stood there in a somewhat lazy manner, but he gave you an invisible sense of oppression. He slowly spoke: "... You guys, do you really regard me as a trustworthy friend?"

Why did you hide this from me?

It's because we're friends that I don't want you to get involved. You feel frustrated, but you can't say anything. After a pause, you can only answer: "It's something, but I can handle it myself."

The words swirled on the tip of his tongue, and he couldn't help but spit them out: "... Stop meddling in other people's business."

“…”

There was a dead silence.

Matsuda Jinpei was extremely angry and laughed back: "Well, I'm meddling in other people's business? - Jiang Lai, I really want to beat you up."

Oops, I think I said the wrong thing.

"But I really don't know this person." You quickly added with a sincere expression.

Because it is true.

"And... I really didn't know someone wanted to kill me," you blinked, "Really. If I knew, I would have told you. I thought it was a small matter and didn't want to bother you since you're so busy. Ahem, if there's danger, call the police. I still know how to do it."

This is also true. You really didn't expect the other party to send someone to kill you.

Matsuda looked at you for a few seconds: "Okay, I'll trust you this time." He dragged the unconscious man to him with one hand, "You must be interrogated for attempted murder. As for why you won't tell me - I'll check it myself."

You are not worried about what the other party can find out. You believe that no matter which organization it is, it will not easily reveal its flaws. Moreover, judging from the performance of the person who came to kill you today, he should be just an outsider or a gangster who was used as a gun.

"You also have to go with me to the Metropolitan Police Department to record a statement." Matsuda stretched out his voice, put the man against the wall, and then took a few steps towards you——

A strong wind blew, followed by a muffled sound. Matsuda's hand brushed your face and he punched the wall behind you hard. Several pieces of wall skin fell down with a rustling sound.

“…” You widened your eyes slightly.

"…Just this once, Jiang Lai." Matsuda slowly withdrew his hand. "Since we are friends, if you keep a secret from me next time, I will definitely beat you up."

He curled the corners of his lips: "...I'll beat you until you cry."

"...What?" You said with a half-moon eye. "I won't cry. Besides, I've practiced martial arts, okay? Stop looking down on me."

"Tsk," Matsuda grabbed the man and strode out, "Let's go, the car is outside, let's go to the Metropolitan Police Department."

He said casually, "Really, you guys, you'd better go die."

"Hey, don't curse me." You showed your dead eyes, "You are so cruel."

You followed him out of the alley, sighing in your heart.

Oh, I'm afraid I'll have to stay up late working on the computer again tonight.

Along with the sound of keyboards clicking, there was also the sound of things falling into the water and being picked up again.

You endured it for a long time, but finally stopped hammering and turned around to say, "Kitagawa Makoto, can you please stop messing with the fish in the fish tank? You're almost killing them."

"Shut up." Kitagawa Maki didn't look at you, "The master is practicing controlling his strength, so leave him alone."

This is my home! My home! You took a deep breath and decided to hold it in for a while.

Turning your gaze back to the computer, you rub your temples with a headache - someone is invading the surveillance system, and you have to set up program blocks while encoding to ensure that all data is completely deleted without leaving any trace.

I regained my spirits and time passed quickly. The hands slowly slid towards 12 o'clock, and the sound of water behind me finally stopped.

"Oh, by the way, today is Friday!"

The voice behind me suddenly became excited.

You don't want to pay any attention to him and continue to focus on the procedure.

"Every Friday night is when Sister tells Ajie stories~"

Sister? This word makes you pause in your tapping.

A pair of hands suddenly rested on your shoulders.

Kitagawa Makashi is standing behind you.

"I still want to listen to fairy tales tonight—"

The other person's happy smiling face was reflected on the dim computer screen, and he showed his sharp shark teeth.

"Is it okay?" He said with a smile, "——Sister."

The author has something to say:
