Chapter 81 The Three People's Reactions
Kazesei-no-Mori didn't know the two people Hagiwara mentioned. She didn't feel anything about the deaths of people she had never met; at most, she felt a little sorry for them because of their age and how they died.
It's such a pity that a Japanese policeman, who risked his own safety in a critical moment, died in a car accident. He was so young, and I heard he had a boyfriend. If he hadn't died, he would definitely have had a bright future.
Another connection was with the organization her brother worked for. She thought that her brother's workplace must be related to crime, but such yakuza organizations, which would definitely be illegal in China, are actually legal in Japan.
My brother isn't the type of person who can honestly work a regular job. Even if I try to dissuade him from choosing a job, he won't listen.
All we can do is save as much of his hard-earned money as possible, so that when he gets old and can no longer work dangerous jobs, or when he no longer enjoys such thrilling work, we can use the savings to support him in his old age.
Now I hear that Hagiwara's friend committed suicide because of investigating that organization, and that her brother wasn't involved in the manhunt. The people who drove him to suicide were actually an FBI agent and another Japanese public security officer...
Upon hearing the truth, Kazesei Mori initially didn't have any particular feelings about Hagiwara's friend named Morofushi Kagemitsu. His first thought was related to his older brother, and he felt it was perfectly normal for his brother to have a major setback in 2015.
He works for both the US FBI and the Japanese Public Security Bureau, so he probably doesn't have many real accomplices. The rest are all official investigators from various countries. What if these people secretly play tricks on people?
No matter how cautious and quick-witted my brother is, he's bound to fall for it! -_-|| Unfortunately, my brother is a bad guy, and I have no reason to resent the people who caused his downfall, assuming, of course, that those people are actually government officials.
He was someone who stood on the side of justice, aiming to eliminate crime and protect the people, and who targeted his brother, not someone involved in backstabbing, infighting, or other underhanded tactics within a criminal organization.
She reacted this way because her brother had said when he was a mercenary that risking his life was exciting and exhilarating, and that killing his targets brought him pleasure. He liked this feeling of exhilaration, but he was also well aware of the dangers.
The thrill of this life-or-death gamble comes from the uncertainty of when you might lose. You have to accept the consequences, and if something happens to him, you won't have to go through the trouble of investigating the truth, seeking revenge, and so on.
When Feng Xingshou heard this, he knew in his heart that some of his brother's words were true, while others were meant to ensure that he only needed to protect himself and think about his future life after his brother's accident.
She also has her own views and thoughts on this matter. She feels that if her brother is punished by the law for doing bad things, it is the natural result he has to face after choosing his own path, and she will not resent or hate the law enforcement officers involved.
But if it's someone like my brother, or someone else who's involved in a fight between criminals or gangsters who hurts or harms him, even if I'm useless in that area, I'll do everything I can to help him do what family members should do.
However, after my brother went missing and payments stopped, I couldn't find any news reports related to him on any official media in any country. I tried to find out the contact information of my brother's Japanese boss and his associates, but I couldn't reach them at all.
Even if you want to find out the truth
I felt a bit lost, but I never expected that today's dungeon would not only let me hear my brother's long-lost voice, but also seem to have revealed the reason for his disappearance.
-_-|| Surrounded by spies from various countries, even if my brother is incredibly capable, he's bound to fail! What should I do? It's only natural for the authorities to arrest him, but if I use the instance to warn my brother, wouldn't that be obstructing the police's work?
.
Meanwhile, Matsuda gradually regained his composure as Hagiwara spoke. The squad leader encountered the accident while saving someone; no one wanted such a thing to happen, and it was an unavoidable accident.
Although he was heartbroken by his friend's passing and regretted that he hadn't died a natural death, he was relieved that no one harbored any ill will towards the class monitor in this matter. Besides, with the dungeon available now, he and Hagi could find a way to change the class monitor's fate.
However, when he heard about the time and circumstances of Jing Dan's death, he frowned deeply and asked incredulously and speechlessly, "So, when Morofushi died, he was forced to commit suicide by an FBI undercover agent? Furuya was only a few seconds too late to save him?"
As for the Japanese government's decision to abandon breaking through the group's encirclement in order to prevent the public from being attacked by terrorists, thus allowing this danger to occur, even as a Japanese police officer, he felt uneasy about it.
He couldn't bring himself to say that the safety of Moronobu's life was more important than the safety of the vast majority of people facing a crisis, after all, he himself chose to sacrifice himself in a critical moment to prevent the civilians from being killed by the bomber...
"After listening to Furuya's account, I felt that things might be a little different. Don't forget that when we were at the police academy, every time Furuya went to Morofushi's dormitory to call him, Morofushi would open the door before Furuya even knocked."
Later, when we had dinner together, we asked Komobushi about it. He said that he had a good ear and had grown up with Kofuya since childhood, so he could clearly distinguish Kofuya's footsteps within a certain range.
Kofuruya was only a few seconds late, and those few seconds of walking distance isn't much, even if you're running... So I guess Komorobuchi must have heard Kofuruya's footsteps and was worried that Kofuruya would do anything to save him.
"Even if I neglected my duties in public security work, I still had to save him, which led to the exposure of Kofuruya as well. That's why I made the decisive decision to end my own life before Kofuruya arrived and before the FBI undercover agent could reveal his weakness." Hagiwara said, revealing his suspicions after hearing Kofuruya's account of what happened.
His gaze involuntarily drifted to Feng Jiang beside him. He was worried that because his friend's situation was related to the organization his brother worked for, Feng Jiang might choose to break ties with him or join a different camp for her brother's sake.
But he doesn't like to do things that would hurt or upset the women he likes, and he doesn't want to lie to her about this. He wants to wait until the truth can no longer be hidden so that she can feel the pain of being deceived.
Even though he could have used excuses like it was for his friend, for the police's job, or for the police's sense of justice, he didn't want to do it, which is why he chose to tell the truth from the beginning.
-_-|| I feel a little bad for Furuya, because I revealed his identity to someone who might endanger him without my permission. But I did it after careful consideration. First of all, given Fuu-chan's personality, it shouldn't be a problem.
Secondly, it's not easy for Fuuya to contact the outside world within the instance, unless she truly breaks with herself and Matsuda because of this and chooses to recruit people in the real world to act as her representatives. Otherwise, Kofuya's...
Her identity won't be revealed because of her connection with Gin.
.
Just as Hagiwara was thinking about these things, Matsuda Jinpei, after hearing Hagiwara's speculation, recalled his understanding of Kagemitsu and knew that his speculation was probably closest to the truth, but the reasoning behind it was a little different from Hagiwara's guess.
After all, Jing Dan had experienced the murder of his parents, and even if it wasn't obvious on the surface, he actually had a strong protective instinct towards the people around him, his friends, and his childhood friend, Jiang Gu.
Just like when they encountered the cases of Shinichi Kudo and Ran Mouri, after hearing about this case, the first thing he and Furuya did was to figure out how to expose the criminals' tricks and then use reasoning and investigation to find evidence to make the criminals confess.
Jing Dana first went to find the tools in the villa that might cause danger, and tried to eliminate any weapons or props that could endanger their personal safety. That's why he found the wooden gun that the prisoners had hidden in advance and carried it with him.
Not giving criminals a chance to harm them—this is the kind of reaction Jing Danna usually has whenever she handles cases or incidents with Jing Danna. So, for Jing Danna, who heard Furuya's footsteps...
His suicide was probably not for work, but to protect Furuya... I don't know if Furuya realized this, but neither the footsteps nor Keidan's reason for doing so...
He felt it was better for Furuya not to know. Furuya was so sentimental that he was somewhat indecisive. If he knew these things, he would definitely be more tormented than if he had witnessed Keidan's suicide. It was better to know nothing at all.
Fortunately, the junior was there to help them change things through the dungeon. Matsuda instinctively looked at Feng Xing Shou when he thought of this and noticed that she seemed to be struggling with something.
Seeing the junior's expression, Matsuda realized that she was also somehow connected to this terrible news; her brother was actually an accomplice of the criminal organization that Keidana and Furuya were investigating. What a coincidence...
Thinking of this, he subconsciously glanced at Hagi, only to see that Hagi was also looking at her junior with some hesitation and worry. Their expressions were subtly synchronized, causing Matsuda to open his half-moon eyes wide and ask speechlessly, "Fū-chan! Why do you look so conflicted? Is it because of your brother and Keidan's matter?"
I can guess what Hagi is thinking without even asking, so I should ask the junior! Besides, I can find out her attitude on this matter sooner.
If she didn't want to change Jing Dan's fate for her brother's sake, and instead strengthened the authorities, increasing the chances of her brother being brought to justice, she could find a way to become a survivor sooner, gain the qualifications to participate in the dungeon, and then try to rescue him...
"Uh... it's hard to say, I just thought..." Upon hearing this, Feng Xingshou shook his head and blurted out his dilemma without hesitation: "So now I don't know what to do."
Of course I wanted to save my brother, but I made up my mind a long time ago that although I would not voluntarily 'turn myself in' to the authorities and leak information that would be detrimental to my brother, I would also not protect him when the authorities discovered his criminal traces and began an investigation.
I had a good plan at the time, and I felt I had made up my mind, but now that I've actually encountered this situation, I feel that no matter what kind of person he is, he's my only brother. Even if I become an accomplice to a bad guy, I want him to live.
