Year 1 Start 8
"Clatter--" accompanied by a goosebump-inducing sound of a chair rubbing against the ground, Matsuda Jinpei sat directly next to Ishii Kazuki - it was he who had roughly pulled the chair open that caused the noise, "Hey, you," he directly snatched the report in front of Ishii Kazuki, "Go home quickly, I will help you talk to Inspector Megure and the others today, and Hagi will come to help... Wait, what's that expression on your face?"
Hagiwara Kenji, who looked deeply moved, wiped his face with his sleeve exaggeratedly to clean up the non-existent tears, "Kenji-chan is really so touching," he sat on the other side of Ishii Kazuki, naturally taking away half of the work that originally belonged to Ishii Kazuki, "Jinpei-chan has grown up, he knows how to care for people..."
"What a disgusting statement," Matsuda Jinpei didn't give him any face, and quickly flipped through the papers in his hand, "Let me see, these are all post-incident reports... Ishii, how did you accumulate so many? One, two, three, four, five, six... No, you encountered seven cases in one day?!!"
"Ah? Huh?" The sleepy Ishii Kazuki acted like he was dying and sitting up. Just when Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jin had divided his work equally, his pen was still mechanically scratching on the paper, which was enough to prove the state of his mental state. "You..." Seeing the current diversion situation, Ishii Kazuki said with a little hesitation, "What are you two going to do..."
"I'm helping you with your work," Matsuda Jinpei said bluntly, "Go home and get some sleep. You've been running to the hospital every day after get off work, and you've been staying up late writing materials at night. You've been working non-stop. Have you slept for five hours in total?"
Compared to his tsundere childhood friend, Hagiwara Kenji is much more gentle. "Your body is the capital of revolution, Ikki," he rubbed Ikki's furry hair, and sighed in his heart that it felt really good. "Ms. Kurokawa also told us before she went overseas that she would take good care of you. Really, next time if you have something, just tell us earlier. Ikki, you are used to carrying things alone, and you only confess at the last minute."
After the Ono Apartment case, Chie Kurokawa and Mitsuki Yagi were imprisoned. Taking into account the bad behavior of the deceased and the professionalism of the lawyers, the judge reduced their sentences at his discretion. Two years ago, Kazuki Ishii went to pick them up from prison. If Chie Kurokawa had not had to go abroad for some urgent business, and the people who could help had not been tied up due to various circumstances, Kazuki Ishii would not have been so busy.
I confessed that I am a member of a gray organization and I am currently planning a big move. I am afraid that you are either preparing for a drug test or taking out handcuffs. Ishii Kazuki complained in his heart, his brown pupils rolling around, and he looked smart. "What are you talking about? I am already at this age and a good independent policeman." He deliberately dragged out his voice. "It's just a small job. Can it be so difficult for me? I can handle it in a few seconds!"
"So what?" Jinpei Matsuda said with a cold face.
"So?" Hagiwara Kenji held back his laughter. Little Ikki's cunning look really looked like a cat that was circling around its owner's feet and almost causing him to fall, but with an innocent look on its face. Especially with its slightly messy hair and wide eyes, it looked a lot like the cow cat he met on the road. "Does the independent little Ikki intend to refuse the help of Kenji-chan and Xiao Jinpei?"
"No, no, no, I'm a man who will calmly accept the kindness of my friends." Ishii Kazuki packed his things with the speed of his hands that could steal the wallets of everyone in the Metropolitan Police Department. He had already rushed to the elevator, and only his voice remained with his two colleagues. "I'll leave it to you from now on. I'm leaving first--"
"As expected," Hagiwara Kenji shrugged, and skillfully wrote down Ishii Kazuki's name on the report. "Sometimes I feel that little Ikki really hasn't changed at all."
"Heh," Matsuda Jinpei squinted at his childhood friend and said with disdain, "You guys spoiled him."
