Chapter 48 Daily Life in Police Academy



160.

[Toru is so cute when she suddenly starts to worry about something. So heartwarming (covering her face and screaming.jpg)]

[I envy the ladies in my social circle, they are all handsome guys, slurp slurp]

[Zhao... Is this the charm of the 2D paper man? (The little cat blushes.jpg) I've written it all down, so when will you take me along for the socializing?]

[But I always feel that Toru said so much, besides worrying about it, the point is the last sentence, right? No love (touching chin.jpg)]

[The police academy group is here to gain popularity, how can they possibly fall in love?]

[Matsuda's first love was Hagiwara-san, why is there no sign of it?]

[It's not necessarily true. After all, the old thief purely loves the God of War. The others have ambiguous attitudes. They say they plan to go for socializing as well.

Toru is the only one who said he doesn't want to be in a relationship, right? If he hadn't gone to the police academy, he probably wouldn't have agreed.]

[Hehehe, it’s just fine if I don’t have a romantic relationship, my wife, hehehe, prprpr…]

[Helping the sister upstairs pick up her pants (hand over——)]

[After all, his sister is still in danger. Isn't Toru's decision to participate in the incident regardless of life and death just to climb up as quickly as possible and get more information? He has already realized this. He lives every day with the determination to die. How can he have the heart to fall in love?]

[Boil? You’re stabbing me?!]

[Laughing and laughing, the smile disappears...]

In the restaurant, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet.

Chiyoya Saori looked at the guilty expression that suddenly appeared on Matsuda Jinpei's face and couldn't help but raise her eyebrows.

Isn't it just to go to her hometown to look for clues? Matsuda Jinpei is so nervous, it's not like him...?

Could it be that these guys are hiding something that she doesn't know?

"Let me say this, this idiot Xiao Zhenping is too slow!"

Kenji Hagiwara seemed to have noticed something was wrong. He pushed his childhood friend aside in disgust, coughed lightly, and got straight to the point.

Time passed by minute by minute, and as Hagiwara Kenji's story became more and more profound, the surrounding environment seemed to become quieter.

The clinking of plates and the noise of classmates were blocked out, and it seemed that the only sound that could be heard was the clanging of wind chimes hanging in the corridor in the breeze.

"Dingling——"

Chiyodani Toru stood in the middle of a ruin holding a black umbrella. A hot wind blew past him from behind, lifting the hair on his face. His slightly pale lips were bloodless. From a distance, he looked like an old faded photo, with only two colors, black and white.

The wall in front of him had collapsed, with weeds growing densely in the cracks, with the word "desolate" written all over it. The yellowed isolation tape was held down by burnt red bricks, leaving only a corner swaying in the wind, like inescapable evidence of a crime.

A few traces can still be found in his vague memory. The little white flowers that stubbornly grew up in the cracks in the wall were the scenery that the man often dragged him to appreciate in the spring.

At this moment, the flowers are buried in the soil, leaving no trace; the people have gone to nowhere, leaving only a line of words on the cold report.

This piece of land has become a well-known haunted house and a topic of conversation behind people's backs. No one cares about the vivid lives that once happened here, and no one pays attention to the results that have long been concluded.

He had missed too much time, so much so that now faced with these ruins, he could no longer successfully reconstruct every detail. He could only bend down in vain, trying to grasp the pale memories with a slight familiarity.

But no.

I was completely confused.

The wind with a burnt smell and cigarette ashes pierced the young man's nose, causing him to cough unsurprisingly. He leaned the umbrella on his shoulder, squatted on the ground, wrapped his arms around his knees, and tried to suppress the sound of his cough. From behind, it looked like he was shaking from crying.

The heat and burning sensation from the flames spread from bottom to top, causing my scalp to throb, but when I opened my hands, I could only see my white and clean palms, with their lines crisscrossed and messy, just like this wandering life.

"It was just an ordinary accident. The family slept too soundly at night! They didn't even notice the gas leak, and they still kept the incense oil lamp. It's boring..."

"I heard that the hostess of this house is a psychiatrist. Did she forget to turn it off that day?"

"I thought there would be something interesting to watch, but it ended so hastily! But luckily it didn't burn the surrounding area, so I'll just take this as a lesson..."

"It's a pity for that little girl. She's so cute. I wanted our boy to make friends with her."

"Let's go, the police have closed the case. What's there to see?"

The crowd dispersed, treating this as just a topic of conversation after dinner, and quickly forgot about it after expressing their feelings. Even the police did the same.

No one knew that many years later, a man would stand at the edge of the ruins, holding an umbrella, like an abandoned ghost.

Finally, he stepped into the ruins, searched hard among the rubble, picked up the rainy day doll, which was only a piece of rag left, and held it tightly in his hand.

161.

"Hmm... So this is what you found out?"

The black-haired young man used chopsticks to pick up the almost cold noodles with one hand, and placed his other hand on his cheek with a calm expression.

"I do know this, so I've been looking for other clues."

After saying this, Kenji Hagiwara took a deep breath and drank the egg drop soup that was placed aside.

He said seriously, "Anyway, Matsuda and I went to Ekoda Town to investigate this matter. It was our fault for not telling you in advance."

Jinpei Matsuda leaned on the table and nodded, looking a little frustrated.

This matter was too heavy for him, and it also made him want to beat up the Police Commissioner.

Chiyotani Toru hummed and said with a smile: "It's okay, I don't mind. After all, I was quite extreme at that time."

Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed, thinking that this man had no self-awareness at all. He said, "Is it just that time? Why do I feel like you are still letting go now?"

Fūya Ling said coldly, "That's right. When a case comes up, he rushes faster than a puppy seeing a bone."

"I was - wrong -!" The black-haired young man clasped his hands together and said devoutly, "Let's just forget about this!"

"That depends on Toru's performance next time." Date Kou crossed his arms, "At least behave yourself for the next while, the instructor is about to get mad."

"Anyway... I have indeed been investigating Saori's affairs." Chiyodani Toru narrowed his eyes slightly and observed his current appearance through the clear surface of the soup.

"The fire case was closed too quickly and with perfunctory reasons. My mother is a very careful and steady person and there is no way she would make such a mistake."

In fact, it can be seen that both Chiyodani Toru and Chiyodani Saori, who only appeared once, pay great attention to details, which is definitely inseparable from the subtle influence of the family.

Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but ask, "So where were you at that time? That is... before the fire."

"Oh, that time." Chiyotani Toru recalled, "Actually I can't remember the exact reason, but it seems that when I was seven or eight years old, I was taken abroad by a friend of my father to study for a few years, and I have been following that uncle abroad ever since."

"Going abroad?"

"Well, it was in Hawaii, right? I was already 17 years old when I returned to Japan. It's been a while since the incident happened, so it's a bit hard to find out." Chiyodani Toru said casually, "I don't know why my name is not on the record, but since it's not there, it's fine."

The only thing he retained was this name, and there were thousands of families with the same surname in Japan, so it would not have any impact.

The others were silent for a while.

The fire occurred ten years ago, so it is not easy to investigate. However, the fact that the pain from ten years ago left such a deep impression on Chiyodani Toru is enough to show how deep the connection between him and Saori is.

Chiyodani Toru's name may have been deliberately crossed out in order to keep him away from the disaster.

Jinpei Matsuda couldn't help but think of the warning brought by the hoarse voice on the Shinkansen.

Stay still...

[Wuwuwu, where is my daily sweetheart? How did it turn into a knife? QAQ]

[Fuck—Ah—woo, woo, woo.] There is nothing I can recall about my place of residence. My relatives have been pinned on the list of accidental deaths. Even the nominal relationship with them has been completely severed.

When Chiyotani Toru returned to Japan, he was shocked to find that he and the unknown enemy lurking in the shadows were the only ones left in the world...]

[Help...I am being tortured to death! But Toru and Saori's mother is actually a psychiatrist! Toru is so good at psychology, so he must have learned it from her, right? If the information released by the old thief is useful, then there must be a pitfall in my blind sniping here! ]

[The Wuwuwu Rainy Day doll was woven a long time ago, and after ten years it returned to Che's hands. The siblings communicated their longing for each other in a more profound way.]

[Thank you, blood sugar, I took a hit (mouth full of blood)]

[So why did you let Toru go abroad? Although I almost lost my temper when I heard it was Hawaii.]

[I am dying of laughter. So now is the reason why Toru is omnipotent?]

[Ten years ago, Zao experienced a fire, but now she is still feeling very uncomfortable. This shows that their empathy is abnormally strong.

I guess mom and dad also discovered this problem, so they wanted to separate them to see if it would ease the situation? In fact, it turns out that this pair of siblings are special... their connection is so strong! ]

[srds Who are you calling daddy or mommy? (holding a knife)]

[So, what Toru said just now, "I don't know what happened to the ankle injury", was actually to coax the police academy team. He must know that something happened to Sawada, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn't find his sister and couldn't help at all (crying cat head)]

[Based on this, he didn’t show up yesterday probably because Soo was brainwashing him, and he was out of it as well]

[Ouch, Toru must be in so much pain, but he never showed it. He even smiled while playing with the police academy team. Now when I read the daily life in the previous chapters, I feel like the densely packed pages are all stabbed by the old thief...]

[My tears are worthless~~]

["I suddenly became a chopping block and I was at a loss", "One hundred ways for an old thief to tame a chopping block", "Chiyogaya siblings, my debt"]

["Adding quotation marks equals a light novel series"]

Furiya Ling looked at the young man's frustrated expression and couldn't help but patted him on the shoulder: "I know you want to continue investigating, but this time it's still too risky. If it's the group of dangerous people who are targeting your family--"

"I have no other clues!"

Chiyodani Toru interrupted him rudely. The black-haired young man's lips trembled slightly, and he seemed a little excited. He seemed to have something to say, but in the end he just sighed heavily.

He clenched his fists and murmured, "I must find her as soon as possible, as soon as possible."

Zhu Fu Jingguang tapped the table to draw everyone's attention. "Since the data in the police academy's database is like that, it means that the information that can be found in the general grassroots police station is just like that."

"Toru, you work so hard just to gain merit as soon as possible, get promoted and gain authority, right?"

Chiyodani Toru nodded dejectedly.

"But the truth is that even if you solve a case that happened in the police academy, you won't get much credit." Morobushi Jingguang said pointedly, "On the contrary, it will easily expose your current weakness."

"I just wanted to be there sooner..."

"You and Zero are the only two professional teams among us, so we don't need that much time." Morobushi Kagemitsu sighed lightly, "Toru, you need to calm down."

Chiyodani Toru was speechless.

He lowered his head, his sweat-soaked hair drooping, and he looked like a lost puppy drenched in the rain.

Morofu Jingguang sat next to him, his fingers moving slightly, and suddenly he wanted to rub his head.

Hagiwara Kenji tried to smooth things over: "Now that we've talked about it, we can always find clues later. Besides... your sister is indeed still alive."

Chiyotani Toru heard his somewhat strange tone and immediately raised his head: "Do you have any clues about her?"

Several people looked at Matsuda Jinpei at the same time.

The curly-haired young man who was lying on the table sat up reluctantly and took a deep breath: "I've seen her!"

The black-haired young man's eyes widened in an instant, and his movements were so large that he almost knocked over the bowl of soup in front of him.

For a moment, Jinpei Matsuda felt that his hair was about to be set on fire by Chiyogaya Tetsu's fiery gaze.

"…she appeared beside me at the last moment, cut the fuse in one go, blindfolded me, took me into a cubicle, and asked me to count down for 30 seconds."

Jinpei Matsuda honestly repeated what he had already said once, and carefully changed the seconds.

"When I opened my eyes, she had disappeared. Hagiwara and the others at the door said they didn't see her."

"It's her..." Chiyoya Toru listened to his narration quietly, pursing his lips slightly, "When we were kids, no matter what we played, we always counted down out of habit."

"I suspect she mistook me for you and warned me to stay in the police academy and not run around. As for why she didn't let me see--"

Jinpei Matsuda was a little depressed when talking about this. He and Chiyodani Toru were not alike at all. But now, when he carefully savored the other's familiar tone, it was obvious that there was still an element of mistake.

Chiyogaya Tetsu subconsciously touched his face with a complicated expression.

"So she was really that close to me..." he murmured, "But Hiro is right, I am indeed too weak now."

"I can't help you."

Furiya Ling couldn't stand his autistic look and punched him on the shoulder: "Cheer up! Wouldn't it be helpful if you work harder and get first place in the exam? At least surpass me first, right?"

"That's for sure." Chiyodani Toru returned the elbow without hesitation and said bluntly, "I plan to go to the Public Security Bureau!"

"Eh? Why? Shouldn't you be a detective in this kind of criminal case?" Matsuda Jinpei raised his eyebrows. "You usually do the work of a detective."

Chiyodani Toru put his hands on the table and frowned as he analyzed, "The police closed the case too quickly. Even ordinary criminal cases should not be closed so quickly, let alone a case like this that is obviously suspicious... I suspect there is more cat shit on top!"

"If I were just a detective...it would be too clean." He said softly.

A few people understood what he meant.

The organization that set the fire might have a certain amount of influence in the police, which is why they were able to influence the situation and push the case forward so quickly.

If Chiyotani Toru started out as a detective, even if it was a professional team, it would be difficult for him to get in touch with private things in a short period of time.

Matsuda Jinpei nodded in understanding: "I think you will be fine. I plan to go to the mobile team... the explosive ordnance disposal team."

He said with some pride: "Officer Songdao said there is absolutely no problem with me!"

"I think he'll become a criminal police officer," Ida Kou said with a smile, "It's more reassuring to protect people at close range."

When this topic was brought up, everyone became interested. Furuya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu looked at each other and said, "Hiro and I plan to wait and see. It is said that someone from above will come to choose when the time comes."

"Where's Hagi?"

Hagiwara Kenji was dazed, shaking his chopsticks. When he came to his senses, he said, "I haven't thought about it yet."

Matsuda Jinpei came over and said, "Won't you come with me? I think your family is also suitable."

Chiyotani Toru, who is pursuing the fatal truth, and Matsuda Jinpei, who has experienced the life and death of bomb disposal. The future path of these two guys is destined to be a thorny one, but they still stepped into it without hesitation.

Obviously, from the beginning, Kenji Hagiwara just wanted to pursue a stable job...

There is a flame burning in my heart, gradually growing brighter and brighter, but it is temporarily covered by a corner of the comfortable cloth, and will soon be lifted.

"Let me think about it again." Hagiwara Kenji sighed, put his long hair behind his body, and scanned everyone with his eyes, "Time will prove the best choice."

"But we all end up in the same place." Chiyodani Toru smiled and held out his hand to them, "Everything is for the public good."

“Bang!”

The palms of different skin colors overlapped, making a crisp collision sound. There was a fire in everyone's heart, which had been burning fiercely since entering the police academy.

They all said in a deep voice: "Everything is for the public good!"

"So...Matsuda, can you explain to me how you had the courage to defuse a bomb you were not sure would be able to destroy with a dead cell phone?"

Chiyodani Toru's voice was light and floating, but it hit Matsuda Jinpei's heart directly.

"Oh, by the way, you still need my sister to save the day in the end?"

Even though the bomb was planned by Chiyoya Saori from the beginning, it was another matter if the target of the bomb defusing was not clear to her.

Just like someone who had been beaten and scolded in the morning out of guilt, the curly hair on Jinpei Matsuda's head couldn't curl up when this matter was mentioned.

He said unconfidently: "This was an accident! I dismantled the model three or four times when I got home. It's impossible for it to happen again!"

"You're an idiot!"

Chiyodani Toru cursed in annoyance, using the two idioms "arrogant" and "righteous" to the extreme, without any sign of his initial gloomy attitude.

Jinpei Matsuda scored a second goal in this matter of being scolded, but he could only look sullen and had no intention of fighting back.

Seeing the two people's attitudes suddenly reversed, the others couldn't help laughing: "Do you still have the qualifications to criticize each other?"

Hagiwara Kenji grabbed Matsuda Jinpei's neck and announced loudly: "If this guy acts recklessly again next time, I will definitely tell his father!"

"You guys, remember this too!" Matsuda Jinpei rolled his eyes and gritted his teeth as he was strangled by him. "Don't think I don't know that you are also dismantling things in private."

"Toru, don't laugh. If you find out again next time... hehe." Morobushi Kagemitsu said half of his words, but his words were more frightening than a full threat.

The black-haired young man immediately stopped smiling, coughed lightly, and sat down obediently, his dream returning directly to his proper posture in elementary school.

Fūya Rei tried hard to hold back his laughter, but a laugh finally escaped into his arm.

Yi Dahang looked at his classmates who were in a mess and sighed. He checked his watch and said the time again: "I can only say that if we don't go back, we will be late for the English class this afternoon."

Everyone: “!!!”

"Go, go, go, go back quickly to class!"

Several people stood up instantly, took away the plates on the table, and rushed to the classroom, not forgetting to pick up the "suspected injured" Chiyodani Toru again, and ran away on the spot without paying any attention to the other party's protests.

This time, no one will get lost along the way.
