[Psychic Detective Yakumo] One hundred ways to tease cats

"Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm——" the j□j wriggled on the ground like a newborn pony, and slowly stood up.

No way... How could such a thing happen!She shook her head desperately to deny the scene in front of her, but the facts in front of her still existed.

The woman twitched her feet and started walking towards the entrance of the apartment.

"why why why……"

He kept saying the same thing over and over again.

A short time later, the woman disappeared through the entrance of the apartment.Her knees kept shaking, her feet gave way, and she fell to the ground.After finally getting rid of the unimaginable fear, her big tears flowed down.

Her head was blank, she didn't know what to do, she could only stand there in a daze for an unknown amount of time.

"why……"

The voice came again.No way?impossible?I look up to the apartment.

The woman fell again.Boom!There was a dull voice.

This time she clearly saw the moment the woman landed on the ground, the flying blood wet my face.

"Why...why I just can't die!"

The woman spoke again and stood up slowly.

"Ah ah--"

She screamed, and her scream pierced the summer night sky.

Makoto Hijikata got off the taxi in front of a four-story building with dragons and snakes, and saw a small neon sign that said "SNAKE".

Makoto hurriedly ran down the stairs leading to the basement, because it was more than two hours before the appointed time.Why is it that she has been unable to finish her work when she has an appointment with someone.

She pushed open the heavy wood-toned door and entered the store.This store seems to be deliberately creating the atmosphere of a small hotel in the Showa era, with jazz music flowing in the dimly lit store.

There were only four tables and a few counter seats, so she didn't have to open her eyes to find Mami at all.Asami was sitting at the table by the entrance puffing, but she used to hate the smell of cigarettes.

"sorry I'm late."

Makoto patted Mami on the shoulder.

"You are really slow!"

Asami pursed her slightly thick lips in dissatisfaction.They haven't seen each other for many years, and Mami feels that a lot has changed.Asami in college gave a very healthy impression, which is slightly different from her now, perhaps because she has lost a lot of weight!But it could also be because of her makeup.In any case, this cannot change the fact that she is as beautiful as a flower.

"I'm really sorry."

"Forget it, it must be because of work! If it's because of a man, I can't forgive you."

"Well, thank you."

"After all, working in a newspaper is your goal all along!"

Although Makoto smiled noncommittally at Mami, she couldn't laugh in her heart.Because she was able to enter the newspaper because she had a father who worshiped as the police chief, so it cannot be said that she relied entirely on her own strength.

"But it's been a long time since we met. When was the last time we saw each other?"

Makoto didn't know how to continue the conversation, so she quickly changed the topic.

"We haven't seen each other since graduating from university!"

makes sense.Mami returned to her hometown of Shizuoka after graduating from university.Although they would send text messages and send New Year's cards to each other during the period, it has been three years since the last time the two talked face to face like this.

"So, the last time we saw each other was at the graduation ceremony!"

"I didn't attend the graduation ceremony..."

Mami's expression was slightly stiff.Thinking about it carefully, Makoto really has no memory of seeing Mami at the graduation ceremony.She remembered that Mami had taken a one-month leave of absence because she was unwell, and then spent the graduation ceremony on sick leave.She asked something that shouldn't be asked.

"When did you call here?"

"I was transferred last month."

"Really? Then we can have a drink or two together in the future."

"I won't let you escape easily!"

Mami smiled lightly.In the past, Mami would always laugh out loud. It seems that three years may really change a lot!

"Sit down first."

When Makoto was about to sit down at Mami's invitation, she found two strange men sitting on the opposite chair.

One is in his early thirties, casually dressed in a white jacket and jeans; the other looks about 20 years old, giving people a hip-hop look.The combination of these two together is really not compatible.

"Good night."

The man in the coat greeted Makoto politely, and the jovial young man followed suit.

Makoto sat down next to Mami, and tapped Mami's elbow to ask me to explain.

"By the way, Makoto doesn't know the two of us yet."

Mami began to introduce those two people to Makoto.The man in the coat is called Shinichi, who is currently working in a public relations company; the other person is called Yuya, who seems to be Shinichi's younger brother, who is currently a freshman in university, and seems to be working in Shinichi's company.

Makoto said her name and nodded to us.

"I just met them by chance in the store. Is it okay to sit with them?"

"Well, it's okay."

Makoto had no reason to refuse.

"What would you like to order?"

The boss in a black apron seized the gap in their conversation and brought us the wine list to order wine for us.The boss has no expression on his face, giving people a sense of calm.

Makoto glanced at the wine list, and finally ordered her most commonly ordered gin.

At this time, Makoto can't imagine what will happen to her...

41

Goto sat on the back of the chair, exhaled a puff of cigarettes, and loosened his tie.

Ishii was sitting in the passenger seat, eating a hamburger with ease.Thanks to him, the whole car smells like hamburgers.Goto originally wanted to scold him, but to scold him is like scolding Yakumo, it will only end up making him more tired, so Goto resists the urge to scold others.

"Please don't hold me back. 』

A voice came from Goto's earphones.It was clearly a woman's voice, but it was so low that it seemed to echo from the bottom of the abdomen.The owner of the voice is Eriko Shimamura.Goto and their car parked on the road in front of the park, from our point of view

Look, you can clearly see Eriko Shimamura just on the diagonal line between them, and she is huddled and hiding in a forest in the park.Shimamura Eriko, who is a heavyweight regardless of height, weight, and posture, hides in such a place that people can see it at a glance.

"Who do you think you're talking to?"

"Of course it's you! 』

呿!Why am I surrounded by people who can only play tricks?Goto couldn't help clicking his tongue.

"What are you doing!I'm the one who wants to smack my tongue, okay?I beg you!You are just too dull, even with Atsuko. 』

"It's so noisy! Atsuko's matter has nothing to do with the present!"

Who wants her to talk too much!Why bring up his wife!

"Where is it okay?Who do you think introduced you? 』

"I really regret it."

The relationship between Goto and Shimamura Eriko has always been in the police school era, but he fell in love with his current wife under her introduction.Therefore, his private life is not a secret among colleagues.Not only the police, but even the old man Hatake and Yakumo knew about it.

"What nonsense are you talking about?I regret that it was me!If I had known earlier, I should not have introduced Atsuko to you. 』

"It's noisy, shut up!"

"Really!It is because of your dead appearance that Atsuko ran away from home.Every time you quarrel, Atsuko will hide in my house, I've had enough!Come and pick her up right after work. 』

The rude laughter of other colleagues came from the earphones.That stinky woman, she's just saying this to pass the time!Goto clenched his lower lip, in any case he punched Ishii on the head first to vent his anger.

"Officer Go, Go, Goto, why did you hit me?"

A piece of the tomato in the burger in Ishii's hand fell off.

"It's so noisy!"

Goto glared at Ishii fiercely, and sealed his mouth when he was about to argue.

Goto is increasingly worried about his future.

"Anyway, this case has nothing to do with us!"

"But it's an indisputable fact that we don't have jobs, so it's okay to support others!"

Ishii actually answered Goto's casual complaints seriously.

"I don't need you to tell me."

As Ishii said, since the serial kidnapping case was solved, they haven't done any decent work. The "Special Investigation Office for Cases Under Investigation" seems to have become a support force for other departments.

Like now, there are many incidents of violence against women in the park in the corner of this residential area-although they are violent incidents, they are actually just

A certain pervert specially took scissors to cut up girls' skirts.And they are lying in wait for the prisoner to appear here.

How is that any different than setting them aside?Besides, this deployment method did not block all the escape routes of the prisoners at all.Why

Does he have to take orders from a young man in his twenties?Goto was furious.

"The suspect was found... about [-] tall, wearing a green sports jacket and a black knitted hat... exactly consistent with the victim's testimony. 』

A nervous voice suddenly came from the earphone.

"It's next to the public toilet. 』

Goto listened to the instructions and looked around.found it!In front of the public toilet directly in front of Goto, there is a suspicious figure with his back against the toilet

Walls, furtively observing the situation on the road.

"Shimamura, go from the side and question him. 』

"Yes. 』

"Idiot! Once Shimamura moves, there will be no one guarding inside!"

Goto yelled angrily at the incompetent commander.
