Symbiosis 9
When Kenji Hagiwara came back, he saw Jinpei Matsuda typing away in the car with his head down.
He shrugged and walked around to the other side of the car and got into the driver's seat. "Not done yet?" Hagiwara Kenji fastened his seat belt and took out his phone to send a few text messages before stepping on the accelerator. His sister, who was a traffic police officer, seemed very worried about him and called him several times, so he had to pick a time to reply to some messages. "Kenji-chan has been notified of his vacation. Is it so troublesome for you to ask for leave, Jinpei?"
"No," Matsuda Jinpei put on his sunglasses again. From Yu Kunran's perspective, the bruises under the black glasses frame were particularly conspicuous. "That nagging guy also suggested that I receive psychological counseling. Tsk," he bluntly expressed his disdain for his boss, "He said that the new therapy introduced recently is very effective for relaxation. Sorry! I don't have the hobby of confessing to a stranger."
"I'm concerned about you," Hagiwara Kenji finally freed his hands to start the car. Bomb disposal police are required to have higher stress resistance and psychological quality than ordinary police officers. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to evaluate the psychological state of bomb disposal police, just like pilots have to pay attention to whether there have been any changes in their families before going to work, in case they are unable to think straight. "But it seems that you must have a mental evaluation before you go back to work--"
"It's not like I can't memorize it," Matsuda Jinpei sneered, "So, what did you ask, Hagi?"
It was almost afternoon and Tokyo's population was always considerable. Even though Hagiwara Kenji was an excellent driver, he had to slow down and become a small cog in the city's traffic. He could only stare at the shops on the roadside and kill time while waiting for the traffic lights.
"As expected, nothing special," Hagiwara Kenji sighed. He had just used his ID to investigate the registration records of Honda Tsuneichi's tomb. He had successfully helped the fifty-year-old lady regain her memory with his affectionate peach blossom eyes, and then he waved goodbye without a cloud in his eyes, leaving a heartbroken person behind. "Looking at the records, this was purchased for him by the daughter of the owner of the tombstone, but the family's identity information was forged, and the bank account used for payment was also sold by the original owner..."
"But the funeral home did give me a clue. I checked the police records. Seven years ago, a woman called the police and said she had found her father who had been missing for four years in the Aokigahara Sea of Trees. She asked to take the body back for burial. After the police confirmed the relationship through the photos left on the body, they helped issue a death certificate and let the person take the body away."
"To confirm the relationship of relatives just by a photo?" Matsuda Jinpei frowned tightly. Looking at the bitter smile on Koujunran's face, he also understood that the DNA test was definitely not done. The local police just relied on one-sided words to let people take the body away for cremation. "It's like this again——"
"After all, it's that kind of place," Hagiwara Kenji could understand. After all, the situation in Aokigahara Forest is special, and the local police can't be too detailed when they are short of energy. "Anyway, the body has been cremated, so the situation is a bit troublesome."
"Don't tell me you don't want to go somewhere," Matsuda Jinpei raised his eyebrows. They were so familiar with each other that Hagiwara Kenji knew the other's sister would appear in a blink of an eye, otherwise he would not have time to hide the things in his hands. "I saw the navigation."
"Of course," Hagiwara Kenji chuckled, "Kenji-chan will definitely not return empty-handed."
"Hold on tight, Xiao Zhenping, and don't bite your tongue—"
