Kitagawa Temple wouldn't care whether the other party was demonstrating or something else.

But

‘Whether it is for Eri or for myself, I must quickly catch this crazy guy.’

The other party sent his arms into his home with a proud attitude, which was to arrogantly tell him not to act rashly: he could easily enter the Kitagawa Temple home, and of course he could also treat him and Kitagawa Eri as he treated the dead.

Kitagawa Temple itself is nothing, the key is Kitagawa Eri.

School will start tomorrow, so it is too unsafe to let Kitagawa Eri act alone.

Kitakawaji made up his mind and called Kawano Ryoko again

It's eight o'clock in the evening, and heavy snow began to fall outside. The TV is still broadcasting the Japanese New Year's Red and White Song Festival program a few days ago.

"So in such a good drinking weather, why do I have to be called out by you, a stinky and hard guy?"

Ryoko Kono took a sip of beer in a little upset.

She had obviously started to drink.

But Kitagawa Temple did not reason with this woman, he just pushed the corrugated cardboard box to Ryoko Kono.

"What is this?" A sharp look flashed in a flash of sharpness in Kono's eyes.

"Take it back to the identification department to see it. It should be the arm of the female corpse who found it today. I just sent it to my house today."

Hurry!

The wine table was pushed, and Ryoko Kane's face changed drastically.

At the same time, two policemen who had been squatting outside rushed in with their guns.

"Police!"

Before they finished speaking, Ryoko Kawano cursed.

"Didn't I ask you two newcomers to stay at the door of Beichuan's house?! Why are you still staying here? Get out! Stay outside and I will send you back to the police academy and rebuild it!"

"Yes!" After Gangno Ryoko's angrily scolded, the two poor police officers bowed with grievance and quickly entered the night.

Ryoko Kawano had no time to care about the two new policemen. Her long and narrow eyes turned to Kitagawa Temple and said in a deep voice:

"You were targeted by that guy?"

"So I want to ask you to send some people to protect my sister." Kitagawaji went straight in.

"I understand." Ryoko Kawano did not have much surprise expression on this request.

Kitagawa Temple and Kitagawa Eri are being watched by the suspects. No matter what, the police have reasons to lie in.

"I will separate four people to protect you and Eri-chan"

"Gangye Police Vision, just protect my sister all four people."

Kitagawaji's excessive tone made Ryoko Kawano inexplicably shudder.

Even if a minor knows that he is being stared at by a murderer, he still makes such a request? Generally speaking, shouldn’t people protect themselves more?

Moreover, Kitagawa Temple has a cold face and a gloomy eyebrows. Could it be that it is because the family is threatened and angry?

...

This is the first time that Ryoko Kawano has felt such obvious emotional fluctuations in Kitagawaji.

but

"Don't be willful, Kitagawa, this is not something you, a high school student, can solve." Ryoko Kono frowned, "I don't care if you have practiced karate or judo, but the other party is a murderous murderer who doesn't blink. Let you go alone."

"My mother is away all year round, and I am the head of the family. I am really worried about Eri. For the sake of my family, I can only ask Gangye Police to agree to my willful request."

Under the surprise gaze of Ryoko Kawano, Kitagawaji's head raised.

His back was straight, and there seemed to be a fearless light flashing in his black eyes.

For the family

Ryoko Kawano felt inexplicably.

It seems that I am not talking to a high school student, but really talking to an adult and a mature head of the family.

Besides, Kitakawaji's familiar words also made her feel inexplicably nostalgic.

"You boy" Ryoko Kawano's addiction to smoking was reoccurring again, and she took out a lady's cigarette from her body.

After lit the cigarette, she consciously walked out of the izakaya with a sake bottle, and Kitagawa Temple followed closely behind.

Furo

After a while of sucking clouds and fog, Gangye Ryoko rubbed her palms that were surging with cold air and asked without looking back:

"I said, can you be a hidden girl?

""Baichuan Temple.

Kitakawaji did not answer this question.

"Forget it, I can't get the answer even if I ask you."

The blazing red light of the ladies cigarette is extremely conspicuous in this cold winter night.

Ryoko Kawano half-squatted in front of the izakaya restaurant without any lady. Her short hair sprinkled with added unspeakable femininity to this heroic police officer.

She looked at the night sky with snowflakes flying, and she fell into memories.

“The people I know have said the same thing as you before.

She took a sip of cigarette hard.

"That happened a long time ago, but that person is not like you in Kitan. She is not confident, she is naturally stupid, and she is a little confused."

"It's just such a senior, just like the two reckless newcomers just now."

But unexpectedly, Kitagawa Temple, hidden in the night, spoke silently:

"I know."

"You know what's wrong!" Ryoko Kawano was very dissatisfied with Kitagawaji's sudden words to interrupt his memories.

She spat rudely, and a look of indescribable appeared on her beautiful face.

It’s not sadness, nor is it difficult to let go, it’s just simply recalling the past.

"That guy obviously has his parents to support him, so he died so simply."

Ryoko Kawano suddenly became excited.

"Do you know?!"

"It's also a mission to track down drug dealers who sell new drugs."

"Considering that she is a girl and usually looks like that, her colleagues also said she should take care of her."

"But that guy who likes to act as an air of seniors insists on transferring me to a safe place."

"Take face to death for seniors!"

"It turned out that death was so miserable! It was so funny." Ryoko Kawano murmured to herself, and she looked up.

Above the white mist of the cigarette, there is the night sky washed by dew.

Tonight is particularly clean, with the dark night curtains embedded with shiny stars.

It is rare to see such a beautiful and deep night sky in Tokyo.

The morning stars flow like the Milky Way.

"We found her body in the abandoned harbor area of ​​Tokyo Bay, just like that night six years ago."

"It's ridiculous to say that, I don't know why I always feel that she seems to be right next to me. She's still that stupid, she's such a stupid boss."

Ryoko Kawano rubbed his gun lovingly and took a sip of sake with a self-deprecating sip.

The light of the lady's cigarettes is fading.

The air is dead silent.

The sound of Kitagawa Temple sounded.

"That person's name is Yumiko Karuizawa, who is a beauty with beautiful long hair."

"It's not an illusion, she is indeed by your side and always with you."

Ryoko Kawano suddenly turned around and her eyes gazed at Kitagawa Temple behind her.

She looked at it for about three minutes, and finally breathed heavily and said mockingly:

"I'm really going back and forth as I live, I'll actually tell a child this."

Ryoko Kawano lit the cigarette again.

But this time she didn't smoke, just inserted the lit cigarette into the snow in front of her.

As the smoke lingers, Ryoko Gangye raised her hand and sprinkled sake into the snow.

Ahhh

Yumiko, if you are really by my side.

Then please take care of this strange boy.

Ryoko Kawano looked up again.

In the snowy sky, Ryoko Kano seemed to be able to see Yumiko Karuizawa.

She was smiling slyly at herself, as she was then.

Ryoko Kawano came back to her senses in a daze.

There was no change in the sky, and only a little chilling snowflake fell on the tip of Gangye Ryoko's nose.

This is the night sky in Tokyo.
Chapter completed!
