Rest 3
"This is really troublesome," Matsuda Jinpei said honestly, "Will it be helpful to take him to see a psychiatrist?"
"He was able to trick a psychiatrist into coming to treat us," Hagiwara Kenji said he didn't want to have confidence in his peers in such a place. "Ikki looks frivolous, but he's actually quite wary of strangers. If you give him something delicious, he'll let you touch him, but if you want to kidnap him and take him home, he'll run away without even looking back..."
"...Is he a stray cat?"
"Ahem," Ida Kou felt like he was clearing his throat all the time. The waiter passing by seemed to be holding a kettle and looking at his cup, probably planning to refill it as soon as it was empty. "Is Ikki a stray cat... No, we didn't discuss this," he restrained the urge to sculpt the cat of the same period, "So, the reason is indeed..."
"Yeah," Hagiwara Kenji nodded, "He's always felt guilty."
"Tsk," Matsuda Jinpei covered his head and said, "It's his father's business after all." Over the years, Ishii Kazuki has never given up looking for Ishii Yamato. He has visited all the relevant departments of the Metropolitan Police Department. Even when he is on vacation, he will go to relevant organizations as a volunteer. At the same time, he also helps with the work of Ono Apartment. He has also seen a full set of □□ organization cosplay costumes in Ishii Kazuki's closet. It is said that this person has also participated in activities to help released prisoners return to society. There are many fierce people who have been in prison, but Ishii Kazuki is more fierce than them all, so he can be controlled and brought to rescue victims of domestic violence. "But there is no news at all..."
"He's a living person," Yi Dahang sighed. "We've looked through the files, questioned witnesses, and conducted field visits countless times. How come we can't find him?"
Or rather, find the body.
No one in the police academy group said it out loud, but they had all made corresponding mental preparations and believed that Kazuki Ishii had made the worst-case scenario plan.
"He just likes to take on tasks for himself," Matsuda Jinpei made up his mind. Ishii Kazuki's meals these days must strictly follow the hospital standards. Even the souvenirs they brought only have nutritional benefits. "Ono Apartment was in that state back then! And the matter with Hagi..." As he spoke, he cast a cold look at his childhood friend, "Haha, I don't know if he learned this from someone who didn't even wear a protective suit when defusing a bomb..."
Kenji Hagiwara, who had been closely watched by his peers in November for several consecutive years, had a drop of sweat on his forehead. He forced himself to change the subject, "But it's actually quite strange that Ikki's father is missing," he ignored Kojinpei's expression and continued, "The neighbors and friends I asked all said that although the store did close down, Mr. Ishii had actually prepared himself mentally. He said, 'It will definitely not be as good as the large supermarket that will open here.' He also said that he had thought of a new business and would open it when Ikki went to school in Tokyo..."
"Although most young people have gone to work in big cities, the families who stayed behind basically know each other," Date Kou recalled the small town where Ishii Kazuki used to live. It takes several hours by train from Tokyo and it has no special features except that it is underdeveloped. "Although the Ishii family is an outsider, they have not suffered from exclusion and discrimination. The locals quite recognize the Ishii family's skills and say that there is no lock they can't repair."
"I also asked the patrolman over there." The plates on the table were mostly empty. When the waiter came to take them away, he also refilled their water. Matsuda Jinpei flipped through his notebook to look at the records. "When the Ishii family first arrived there, they were a little reserved. They often stayed in the house and had almost no communication with the residents except for work. It took two years for them to gradually get better. That guy used to be described as quiet and introverted." After thinking about it, the background of his wife dying of illness and the husband taking the children away from his hometown to avoid being reminded of the past was quite reasonable. "The teacher said that he was so quiet that he almost didn't exist."
"Quiet little Ikki..." Hagiwara Kenji's thoughts drifted for a moment. Ishii Ikki was always noisy in front of them, and the quietest time was when he was lying in the hospital... cough cough cough, he quickly shook his head to get rid of the unlucky thought, "But the patrolman also said that there was no special change in Ishii Yamato during the time he disappeared, and there was nothing special in the town. Although he was busy entertaining friends who came to visit him from Hakodate during that time, he can guarantee that nothing serious happened..."
"Well, in short," they have gone over these clues over and over again for who knows how many times, Date Kou avoiding the old stuff, "We still have to find a way to get rid of Ikki's knot."
"At least let him know it wasn't his fault."

"Brother," Julian moved closer to Alvin and was patted on the head by the latter. "Are you looking for me? Are you going to take me to play with Uncle Mason and Sister Tina? Is there a wedding? I'm too old to be a flower girl, but I can eat cake--"
"No, I haven't." Alvin answered one by one. He was transferred to Neon before the start of the first year plot and has not seen Mason since then. "This time I want to give you a task."
"What is it?" Julian's eyes widened. The child who had been left alone for so long was almost overgrown with idleness. It was said that the water plant was even considering sending him to school. "We have to deal with this again..."
"It's a simple escort mission," Alvin pinched the child's face and made all kinds of funny expressions, "Don't do it too much. Your brother Yihui is being closely watched recently, so he can't come out to catch you for the time being."
The red-haired young man slowed down his tone. "Arts and I are both in your hands." The red-haired young man leaned to the side, tapping his knuckles on the table and humming an incomplete tune. "This is a very important matter, San Pellegrino."
The cell phone in his pocket lit up, and the news "Neon's tallest building suffered a terrorist attack" flashed on the screen.
