Who taught you to propose like that?
Besides Kenji Hagiwara, there was no other police officer on the cruise ship. With no other option, until officers from the First Investigation Division arrived by helicopter or speedboat, Kenji Hagiwara had to temporarily handle the crime scene.
He watched as Shinichi Kudo skillfully ran to the kitchen to ask the head chef for plastic gloves, and fell silent.
However, Shinichi Kudo noticed something amiss in a moment: "Officer Hagiwara, come quick!"
Kenji Hagiwara was silent for a moment, then sighed resignedly, "Here it comes."
By the time Date Wataru and his underling Takagi Wataru arrived, Hagiwara Kenji and the others had already solved the murder case.
As the mature-looking Date Wataru, with a toothpick in his mouth, stepped forward to give Hagiwara Kenji a high-five, Takagi Wataru, who had already handcuffed the prisoner, stared intently at Hagiwara Kenji's pocket.
A small head was hanging from the edge of the bulging outer pocket. Lai Chuan Huang Quan curled up into a ball, resting his head on the edge, looking so bored that he was about to fall asleep.
Before being called onto the helicopter by Date, Takagi Wataru was sitting in his office eating beef jerky. The small bag of beef jerky that he hadn't had time to tear open was now in his pocket.
Takagi saw Date Wataru catching up with the ace of the mobile unit—they needed to wait for the forensic department to put the evidence into sealed bags according to regulations, which would probably take another seven or eight minutes. After a moment's thought, Takagi tore open the packaging bag and squatted down next to Hagiwara Kenji to play with the dog.
"Suckling."
"Oh, so good, so cute."
The young police officer, engrossed in feeding the dogs, was completely unaware that his direct superior and senior colleague, the current head of the Explosives Disposal Team, had stopped talking and was looking down at him with hesitant eyes.
Kenji Hagiwara looked at Wataru Date with his eyes and asked: Is this the newcomer you mentioned who's a bit silly, but not bad-natured and a great person?
Date Kou: Yes, that's him.
Hagihara Kenji: "..."
Kenji Hagiwara looked down at Wataru Takagi, who was squatting beside him. The handsome young police officer, whose skin tone was comparable to Rei Furuya's, kept making dog-teasing noises at Yomi Lai. He took the beef jerky out of the bag and gently fed it to Yomi Lai one piece at a time.
"Eat more, I have another pack, you can have it all, okay?"
"How can there be such an adorable dog?"
Kenji Hagiwara didn't interrupt the interaction between the man and the dog until the last bag of beef jerky was finished. He patted Yomi's head with his index finger, picked up the little guy, and slung him over his shoulder: "Are you full?"
"Aww~!"
Unlike the little guy who was wagging his tail with joy, the young policeman who was silently feeding the dog only belatedly realized that his entire series of actions had been seen by someone.
One was his own boss, and the other was the ace of the neighboring squad. It felt like he'd made a stupid mistake and been caught red-handed by his boss and the top performer from the next team—utterly humiliating.
For a moment, Takagi Wataru didn't even know what to do, and could only stare wide-eyed in fear and let out an awkward, silly laugh.
"Smack."
Date Wataru slapped him hard on the back: "Alright, Takagi, no one's disgusted with you. Besides, if Kenji didn't want you feeding her baby, she would have stopped you long ago."
Wataru Takagi: "Eh? Baby? Shouldn't Officer Hagiwara's baby be Ms. Raikawa?"
Even though he had only recently joined the Metropolitan Police Department, Wataru Takagi had already heard about Yomi Yorikawa. There was no way around it; Kenji Hagiwara was just too popular among the female officers, and the male officers saw him as a potential rival for her affections.
Takagi Wataru had only been working for a week when he was forced to hear about Hagiwara Kenji from his seniors.
Hearing this, Kenji Hagiwara smiled and rubbed the little bundle of flesh nestled on his shoulder: "Yeah, soft bread is my baby."
Knowing the truth behind it all, Date Wataru gritted his teeth, raised an eyebrow, and gave off a "I knew it" look. Only Takagi Wataru looked left and right, completely bewildered.
As he was leaving, Date Wataru gave Hagiwara Kenji a thumbs-up. Seeing that Yomi Raikawa was focused on nudging Hagiwara Kenji's face with his head, he quickly mouthed to Hagiwara, "Good luck with your proposal."
After Date Wataru left, Kudo Shinichi, who had been standing by his side with his arm crossed, coldly asked, "Officer Hagiwara, are you planning to propose to Raikawa-nee today?"
Kenji Hagiwara tensed up instantly, his muscles bulging with tension, his hair standing on end: "Eek!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the two little girls who were frightened by the murder case showed excited expressions and screamed softly.
Kenji Hagiwara panicked, put a finger to his lips, and made a "shh" sound with a look of terror on his face.
But what's done is done.
The words had already been spoken, and the little dumpling perched on Kenji Hagiwara's shoulder could hardly pretend not to hear. Yomi wagged her tail excitedly and, with her short legs, began to huff and puff as she climbed onto Kenji Hagiwara's head.
"Why……"
Hagiwara sighed, resignedly lending a hand, allowing Yomi Raikawa to more easily perch on his head. He couldn't be angry about it yet; after all, Shinichi Kudo had only done it unintentionally. How could he have imagined that the dog perched on Hagiwara's shoulder would be Yomi Raikawa?
Kenji Hagiwara let Yomi Rikawa keep stepping on his head with her paw pads, while he lay on top of her head wagging his tail incessantly.
"Oh right, I plan to propose during this trip."
Since the plan has already been exposed, given Yomi Lai's intelligence, he probably won't be fooled. Rather than trying to be clever, it's better to tell the truth.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Sonoko Suzuki excitedly clenched her fist and clutched her chest. "Officer, when are you planning to propose? Tonight? I can get the people on the ship to help you prepare!"
Kenji Hagiwara smiled and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but I probably can't afford to hire the Suzuki family to help me."
"It's okay! After all, you're Ran's friend! Ran's friend is my friend!" Sonoko Suzuki put one hand on her hip and patted her chest triumphantly: "So you can leave it to me without worry!"
"Well, then I'll leave it to you, lovely Suzuki-san." Kenji Hagiwara winked at the two girls: "Looks like I'm getting in luck this time thanks to Ran-chan, thanks."
Beside him, Shinichi Kudo whispered to himself: It's probably because you're so handsome.
Delayed by the murder case, it was already quite late. Kenji Hagiwara glanced at the time, exchanged phone numbers with Sonoko Suzuki, and then, carrying several takeout dinner boxes, went back to his room with his baby hair sticking out.
After eating and drinking his fill, Kenji Hagiwara lay on the bed, propping his chin up with one hand and looking at Yomi Yorikawa.
Upon suddenly learning that he was about to be proposed to, Lai Chuan Huang Quan was as excited as if he had taken a stimulant. He kept chasing his own tail around on the bed, and his tail was almost like a propeller.
"Aww~!"
"No, it's a secret."
"Waaah..."
"I can't even feel wronged, even though I'm the one who should feel wronged."
Kenji Hagiwara picked up Yomi Lai and laid her on her back. He pressed Yomi against his face and rubbed her soft little belly against hers. "I've been secretly preparing for so long, and you found out before I even had a chance to do anything. ... Soft bread is so nice to rub against, so fragrant and soft."
"Aww!"
Even when you're angry and step on me with your paw pads, they're still so soft and cuddly. Oh no, I'm really angry. Sorry, sorry, give me a kiss.
Lai Chuan Huang Quan was extremely disgusted. No matter from which angle Hagiwara Kenji kissed her, she would step on his mouth with her two short legs.
After being gagged for the seventh time by a fleshy pad, Kenji Hagiwara remained silent for a moment before deciding to unleash his ultimate move.
He held Lai Chuan Huang Quan's back with one hand, letting her lie completely in his palm, while his other hand quickly moved his fingers: "Hehe, creak creak creak~"
My fingers tickled the little dumpling's belly and armpits quickly. Even when he turned into a dog, Lai Chuan Huang Quan's ticklish spots remained unchanged.
She was being tickled by Kenji Hagiwara, her whole body twisted into a ball, kicking her legs upside down, her pink paw pads flailing wildly in the air.
When Kenji Hagiwara stopped his mischievous fingers, Yomi Laichuan was both angry and aggrieved. She whimpered and squeezed into the gap between the two pillows, revealing her round little bottom and her droopy tail.
Kenji Hagiwara smiled, showing absolutely no remorse for upsetting his girlfriend. He leaned over the pillow and poked her soft, bouncy bottom with his finger: "Softie, wanna take a bath together?"
"Waaah!"
Lai Chuan Huang Quan kicked his hind legs twice and burrowed in a little further.
Kenji Hagiwara, with an expression of utter surprise, continued, "Let me tell you, when I went to the Metropolitan Police Department the other day, Jinpei was incredibly silly. During our weight training, he actually..."
So he saw the white tail that had been lying listlessly on the bed slowly stand up. The little dumpling seemed to still be sulking, but it had already pricked up its ears and was quietly listening to Hagiwara talking bad about Matsuda Jinpei.
But Ken Hagiwara suddenly fell silent halfway through his sentence.
The plot abruptly ended at the most crucial point, with the little dumpling, its upper body hidden in the pillow crevice, scratching its head in frustration, while its exposed tail began to wag anxiously, like an antenna adjusting its position to try and receive a signal.
The next second, with a loud bang, Yomi Laichuan suddenly transformed back into human form.
She was relaxing in the bathtub when she turned into a dog, and now that she has suddenly turned back into a human, she is naturally completely naked.
The sudden increase in size startled not only Yomi Yorikawa but also Kenji Hagiwara, but he immediately came up with a new idea.
With a dull thud from the blow to his forehead by Lai Chuan Huang Quan's elbow, Hagiwara Kenji covered his face, rolled off the bed, and grabbed his phone from under the pillow, sending a text message he had prepared earlier.
Kenji Hagiwara, clutching his forehead where a faint bruise had appeared, collapsed under the bed, groaning in pain: "It hurts so much..."
"Eh!? I'm sorry!"
Lai Chuan Huang Quan quickly climbed off the bed, straddled Hagiwara Kenji's lap, and pulled his hand that was covering his wound: "Let me see your face."
But Kenji Hagiwara refused to let go, saying, "No."
"Why!"
"I can feel it; my face is broken and bleeding, and it feels like I have large bruises. I look so ugly, it'll scare the soft bread."
"Idiot! What nonsense are you talking about! Show me—"
Yomi Laichuan grabbed Kenji Hagiwara's wrist and tried to pry his hand off his face, but Hagiwara immediately gasped, startling Yomi Laichuan into letting go.
"Oh, I'm sorry! I won't pry your hand off, but you have to show me!"
This time, Kenji Hagiwara didn't rush to refuse. He covered his face and remained silent for a moment before letting out a long sigh of resignation: "Then turn off the light."
Lai Chuan Huang Quan pouted, muttering under his breath, "It's so dark now, how can I see anything if the lights are off?" as he stretched out his arm and pressed the buttons on the row of indoor lights located on the bedside table.
She straddled Kenji Hagiwara's waist, completely oblivious to her slightly rising body temperature. Using the moonlight to her advantage, she leaned down and huffed, "Now show me!"
Kenji Hagiwara gave a muffled "hmm" and slowly moved his hand away. The next second, he put his other hand around Yomi Laichuan's waist, closed his eyes, and tilted his head back to kiss her lips.
"!!"
To get a better look at the wound on Hagiwara Kenji's face, Raikawa Yomi had to lower her body, almost lying on Hagiwara Kenji's chest. She was so focused on the wound on his face that she didn't have time to react before someone grabbed her waist and kissed her. She could only stare in astonishment, and it took several seconds before she belatedly realized what was happening.
But at this moment, she was like a butterfly caught in a spider's web; any struggle she made was merely a signal to attract the venomous spider. The butterfly's alluring struggles only lured the spider to plunge its fangs into her body, injecting a mind-numbing white venom deep within her.
To add a special touch to Kenji Hagiwara's marriage proposal plans, the Suzuki family deliberately moved the fireworks display, which was originally scheduled for tomorrow night, to tonight.
Upon receiving the text message, Sonoko Suzuki waved to the first mate, and twenty minutes later, a series of dazzling fireworks exploded in the night sky.
The night sky, far from the city, was breathtakingly beautiful, lit by countless stars, while fireworks illuminated the sky, drawing the attention of all the passengers.
The room was dark, but the dazzling and beautiful scenery of the sky was clearly reflected in Lai Chuan Huang Quan's eyes, though she had no time to appreciate it. When the specially made "marry me" word fireworks exploded in the sky, Lai Chuan Huang Quan was pressed to the floor-to-ceiling window, her clear blue eyes staring blankly at the words in the night, her thoughts drifting like a small boat on the waves.
"Ken, Kenji..."
The unclear pronunciation was mixed with breathing sounds, and it sounded sticky.
"I am here."
Kenji Hagiwara's response was hoarse, a drop of sweat slid down his sexy jawline, splashing onto his smooth back in a spray more beautiful than fireworks.
The fingers gripping the glass slowly, little by little, tightened, only to be caught from behind by another hand, fingers interlocked. There was nowhere to escape.
A sexy, husky voice rang in my ears: "Do you see it? In the sky, there are words I want to say."
"I see... Hmm!"
"Soft bread," Kenji Hagiwara called out in a hoarse voice, using Yomi Rikawa's nickname, "marry me."
Another kind of fireworks exploded in his mind, and Lai Chuan Huang Quan tensed up. It took him a long time to slowly utter a sentence: "Okay."
