Chapter 140

Being held in his arms, Kono Seiryoshi gradually understood the current situation of the case.

The driver who was still trying to save the life was found to have cardiotoxic toxins in his blood, indicating a man-made cardiac arrest. The traffic accident was upgraded to a criminal case, and the victim's family members and friends who rushed over after hearing the news blamed each other. If the police had not intervened in time, they would probably have fought on the spot.

Of course, some of it was summarized by him afterwards.

In reality, just as Matsuda Jinpei was talking, his cell phone in his pocket buzzed twice to remind him. The officer paused for two seconds before reluctantly letting go of his hand.

Matsuda Jinpei opened his cell phone and glanced at it, typing quickly on the keys with one hand, then put it back in his pocket.

"The scene called me, I have to go there."

Gongye Shengliang nodded and discussed with him: "Then I will wait for you here?"

“…”

Matsuda Jinpei didn't say anything. It was unknown what he was thinking. He stared at him without blinking, and his right hand slowly moved to his lower back.

Gongye Shengliang was horrified and grabbed his arm: "I'd better go with you!"

That's where the handcuffs are, right? If he hadn't stopped it, would he have been handcuffed now?

Calm down, don't do this kind of thing!

Matsuda Jinpei, who was blocked by him, let out a click of the tongue and withdrew his hand with some regret.

He took out a pair of sunglasses and said, "Put these on. You can't appear in public yet." As he spoke, he put them on the man himself.

Dark sunglasses blocked half of his face, and his vision suddenly became dark. Gongye Shengliang blinked to adjust, and unconsciously smiled, "... Yeah, thank you."

Jinpei Matsuda was right. If he were seen by someone who knew his previous identity, especially by the authorities, it would be difficult to explain.

He didn't dare to stand too close, nor did he dare to leave Matsuda Jinpei's line of sight. He stood next to the store's sign, revealing a pair of eyes covered with sunglasses.

At the scene that had been almost cleaned up, the black-haired police officer walked quickly towards the crowd, and the few suspects who were still arguing and chattering immediately became as quiet as chickens and shut their mouths.

After flipping through a few pages of the on-site investigation results, after a while, the police officer was called to the other side. He squatted down and listened carefully to what Conan said.

Gongye Shengliang gradually became absent-minded.

He had seen Jinpei Matsuda's focused look when defusing bombs many times, but this was the first time he watched Officer Matsuda investigating a case.

When he heard that Jinpei Matsuda was transferred to the First Investigation Division, he inevitably felt particularly concerned and regretful, but he vaguely understood why the other party did so, so he didn't dare to speak casually.

Kono Seiryoshi was holding a magazine in his hand, but he was actually staring at the opposite side in a daze. Behind his sunglasses, his thoughts drifted away to who knows where.

"What are you thinking about?"

Hearing the familiar voice, he answered subconsciously: "I was wondering if Zhenping is more suitable for the Explosion Class--"

The voice suddenly laughed.

The next second, light suddenly came in.

Matsuda Jinpei did not take off his sunglasses. Instead, he half-hooked them with his fingertips, as if he was not sure whether to take them off or not, leaving the lower half of the frame hanging precariously on the tip of his fair nose.

Before Kono Seiryoshi could adjust to the sudden brightness of his vision, he saw a pair of black pupils very close to him.

It's like a pool of water, the clearer it is, the more dangerous it is. There isn't much emotion in it, but it's bottomless.

"It's not about whether it's suitable or not, it just depends on whether I want it or not."

The calm surface of his eyes was rippled:

“…I have something else I want to do now.”

Kono Seiryoshi followed his words and murmured, "...What is it?"

Matsuda Jinpei's Adam's apple slid up and down, and something seemed to be about to come out from between his lips.

There was a "click" sound, and Gong Ye Shengliang was stunned for a moment. After he reacted, he widened his eyes in disbelief.

I was cheated!

He looked down at the silver bracelet on his wrist and felt his fingertips trembling. He was speechless for a long time and felt like crying.

Matsuda Jinpei chuckled, hooked the middle chain and shook it, and the other end of the handcuffs was on his wrist.

In order to catch the criminal, the police officer took the initiative to handcuff himself. It was really touching.

Gong Ye Shengliang did not dare to move. He was struggling to organize his words: "I was wrong, I will definitely change, so can you please not arrest me... woo."

Matsuda Jinpei's tone was like he was fooling a child: "Stay next to me first, no one will notice."

To increase his credibility, he even took the time to turn around and greet his colleagues behind him: "Don't wait for me, report that I will make up for it tomorrow."

The criminal had already been taken to the police car, and the on-site investigation had been completed. There were still a few policemen left there who were finishing up the work. They heard Matsuda Jinpei's voice and responded one after another.

Gong Ye Shengliang was very close to him, his body was almost completely blocked, and every time he caught a glimpse of the other person's sight, he felt more and more uncomfortable.

In fact, most people ignored him, only Conan looked at him twice in surprise. The boy put his fingers on his glasses and tapped them twice, and his expression suddenly became indescribable.

Okiya Subaru, who was with him, was also confused and wanted to walk over there, but Conan quickly pulled him away by the corner of his clothes.

Feeling the pressure gradually dissipate, Kimino Seiryoshi dared to look up and stared at Matsuda Jinpei silently.

Matsuda Jinpei Tsuyoshi sent a text message with one hand, sneered at the result, and handed the screen to him.

Kono Seiryoshi was half-believing and half-doubting, and saw the screen full of excited "?" and "!", mixed with several voices.

"Does anyone else know that you're back?" asked Jinpei Matsuda.

Kouno Seira hesitated for a moment on this question - do Rei and Keimitsu know? But he has not spoken to them in his current identity, nor has he told them "I'm back".

"I guess... not."

Matsuda Jinpei asked suddenly, "If there was no case today, you would not have told me?"

Kono Seiji's conscience shrank sharply, and he grabbed Matsuda Jinpei's sleeve in a panic: "I'm sorry... I just don't know what method to use."

Jinpei Matsuda's expression was blank for a few seconds, then he suddenly raised his hands to cover his face and exhaled deeply.

He felt every joint in his body cracking.

Finally unable to bear it any longer, he straightened the face that made him reluctant to hit her, pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth, and spoke in a calm tone, "You don't need any method at all, just tell me the first time, do you hear me?"

When their eyes met, Gongye Shengliang was silent.

His eyes felt hot and he lowered his eyes, realizing that he had put the cart before the horse.

Were his previous hesitations and his so-called considerations of the overall situation exhausting and torturous to both sides?

"...Yeah," Kono Seira swallowed the bitterness in his throat and smiled, "I heard it."

"..." Matsuda Jinpei paused for a moment, looking away uncomfortably, but then suddenly remembered something and emphasized again: "It's not enough to just hear it, have you remembered it?"

Kono Seiryoshi nodded hurriedly: "Yeah."

His attitude was so positive that there was no fault to be found, so Matsuda Jinpei had no choice but to let him go for the time being.

The police officer held his hand, and when his sleeves were lowered, it was really hard to tell that there was anything connecting them. Even if someone thought it was weird for two adult men to walk so close to each other on the street, they were scared and didn't dare to speak when they saw the black-haired young man's eyes.

The pace was neither fast nor slow, and Gongye Shengliang just kept up.

Matsuda Jinpei raised the corners of his lips and smiled somewhat complacently: "Let's go and see the other guy."

…

…

During a break in training, Kenji Hagiwara received a text message from Jinpei Matsuda.

"Zhenping: I found Gongye."

"Hagiwara: ...Xiao Jinping, calm down first. Are you feeling unwell?"

……well.

Kenji Hagiwara was in a complicated mood. He reflected sadly that he had been too busy with work recently and had not paid enough attention to his children. Then he opened the browser with a heavy heart and prepared to make an appointment with a psychologist for Matsuda.

Before I finished reading the doctor's profile on the web page, a new message popped up in the notification bar.

"Zhen Ping: Come out now and I will bring him to see you."

Hagiwara Kenji:...? ? ?

Five minutes later.

Kenji Hagiwara didn't even have time to change out of his training uniform as he ran to the underground parking lot without caring about his image.

His heart was pounding as he imagined countless possibilities along the way. When he saw two figures standing side by side, he almost thought he was hallucinating.

The young man with gray hair and golden eyes tilted his head, and his eyes curved into crescents as he looked at him.

Hagiwara Kenji stood there in a daze for a long time before waking up from a dream, crying and laughing with excitement. He wanted to cry, but was stopped by You Xunran with a look of disdain: "You just finished training and you smell of sweat, stand further away."

Hagiwara Kenji: “…”

Who is the one who would train him hard when he has nothing to do? Why didn't you ask him to stand further away when fighting in the gym?

"What does it matter?" Hagiwara Kenji defended himself righteously, "Kuno-kun won't abandon me, right?"

Kouno Seira smiled and nodded, "Long time no see, Kenji."

Hagiwara Kenji approached affectionately and was about to say something, but his eyes suddenly fixed on a certain place.

"..." After three seconds of silence, he patted Matsuda Jinpei's shoulder and raised his thumb.

It’s really a punishment, worthy of you.

Matsuda Jinpei said nothing, his empty hand in his pocket stroking his lighter, only his ears slowly turned slightly red.

…

…

After walking out of the parking lot, Gongye Shengliang finally managed to take off the silver handcuffs after much persuasion.

He stood between the two of them. On the way home, Matsuda Jinpei was silent. All he could hear was Hagiwara Kenji's excited and incoherent mumbling and his faint smile in response.

"Glad you're back." "The squad leader is on his honeymoon in Okinawa. I'll send him a photo later to scare him to death." "I'll invite you to dinner in a few days, you must agree." "By the way, Kouno, how old are you now?"

After hearing the last question, Kono Seiryoshi was stunned for a moment and answered truthfully: "Twenty-four years old."

Hagiwara Kenji said meaningfully: "Oh~↗↑↘↓" and glanced suggestively at another person present.

His tone was so up and down that a question mark appeared in Gongye Shengliang's head.

"Nothing," Hagiwara Kenji sighed, "It's just that we are all a few years older than you. Oh, you suddenly became an uncle."

Kono Seira was amused by his pretending to be sad, and curled his lips, "No, Kenji is as handsome as before." He didn't forget that there was another one, and turned his head to say seriously, "Jinpei is the same, he is super handsome when he is working."

Hagiwara Kenji's eyes lit up: "You are indeed a man of vision, young Master! To be honest, I think so, too."

Matsuda Jinpei hummed softly through his nose, not making any comment, but one could sense that he was in a much better mood.

After sending Kouno Seira back to the apartment, they stood at the bottom of the building, and neither of them left. Until a slender figure appeared in front of the window on the corresponding floor and waved at them, Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but reach out his hand to respond from a distance.

Kenji Hagihara looked at the dozens of stories high private apartment building in front of him. In its low key, it still revealed the decadent but pleasant smell of capitalism. He was amazed and suddenly a wonderful idea popped into his mind.

He took the still absent-minded Yu Xunran's shoulder and asked in a friendly and gossipy way, "Xiao Zhenping, do you think Hanako-chan will be with her dad or mom in the future?"

Matsuda Jinpei: “…Hey!!”
