Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 367 Anything is Possible!
At this time, Pu and Jiang were unaware that they had been targeted by the police officers of the Metropolitan Police Department.

However, this was not the first day that Wataru Takagi and Miwako Sato had been tracking Fuwa and Takumi; they had been tracking them for several days.

However, Pu and Jiang's tracking and counter-tracking skills were not very good, and they didn't even realize that they were being followed by the Metropolitan Police Department.

However, he knew that Akiba Reiko herself already knew about his stalking.

But he didn't care. So what if they found out? He hadn't laid a hand on Akiba Reiko, nor had he done anything to harm anyone. Even if others found out, so what? Besides, given his social status, this was nothing. Even the Metropolitan Police Department couldn't detain him.

Of course, they can also forcibly detain him, but it would only be for 48 hours at most. After he comes out, he will still do what he was supposed to do.

So he wasn't worried at all.

As for why he was following Akiba Reiko, it was because of his own son.

His son is dead, and he will not let go of those who killed his son, nor will he let go of this woman, Akiba Reiko.

After all, why didn't this woman go to the appointment with her son that day? If she had gone with him, her son might not have died.

Even if they die, they can continue their relationship in the afterlife, so Hikaru Soma won't be all alone in the afterlife.

So he followed Akiba Reiko because he hated this woman; if she had been with someone else, his son wouldn't have died.

That's why he decided to follow Akiba Reiko. He wanted to know her every move, then kill her and send her to the underworld to keep his son company, or even make her apologize to his son.

He would send all those who drank with his son down to the ground.

Besides, that old guy was also unforgivable. How could he treat me like that? It's unforgivable, truly unforgivable!
Besides the death of his own son, Pu Hejiang had other worries, and all these things weighed on his mind, which led to him becoming like this.

However, he is not like that in the movie. In the movie, he kills the people who are drinking with his son and then prepares to kill the people who came to listen to the concert, but he does not intend to kill Akiba Reiko.

Because Akiba Reiko was the woman his son loved most.

But now, he has gone mad and is not heading in the same direction as in the movie.

Furthermore, in the theatrical version, he is also a madman, after all, he plans to detonate the entire music hall in order to kill a few people, dragging other innocent people down with him.

So it's not wrong that Pu and Jiang have become like this, because these guys were never normal to begin with.

As for the old guy that Fu and Takumi mentioned, he must also be from the Domoto Concert Hall.

A short while later, Akiba Reiko returned to the Beika Apartment while maintaining her phone call with Kitahara Natsuhiro.

After passing through the gatekeeper, Akiba Reiko finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her fear subsided.

After all, Mika Apartment is a heavily guarded apartment building; otherwise, she wouldn't have stayed there.

However, the level of security really varies from person to person.

But
After Akiba Reiko entered the apartment and took the elevator, Fu and Takumi also entered and greeted the people outside.

"Officer Sato, Fu and Takumi actually went in too! They hadn't gone in before!" Takagi Wataru exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.

After all, they hadn't seen Pu and Jiang enter the Mihua Apartment before, so why did they go in this time, and why weren't they stopped by the security guards? Could it be...?
"Perhaps Pu and Jiang bought or rented a house here, which is why they were able to get in so easily."

"Takagi, tell Inspector Megure this message immediately. I'm going in to check it out."

After saying that, Sato Miwako immediately left Takagi Wataru and walked towards the apartment, while showing her police ID to the doorman.

The security guard at the entrance immediately let Sato Miwako in after seeing her police identification.

Although the Metropolitan Police Department has a bad reputation in Tokyo, the doorman won't stop the police from doing their job.

Most importantly, Sato Miwako made the situation sound rather serious, which made the gatekeeper even less willing to stop her.

It's only a few dollars a month, there's no need to risk your life like this. Just let her go in. Anyway, she's a police officer from the Metropolitan Police Department, she probably won't do anything bad once she's in there.

So if they're already in, they're in. Why try to stop them? Are they out of their minds?

After watching Sato Miwako's disappearing figure, Takagi Wataru immediately dialed Inspector Megure's number.

"what?!"

At the Metropolitan Police Department, Inspector Megure was shocked when he received a call from Wataru Takagi; he never expected things to develop this way.

He had just finished a phone call with his friend Kitahara, and now this has happened.

Fortunately, he had a backup plan and told Kitahara Natsuhiro before ending the surveillance, otherwise he wouldn't know how he would have ended up!

Thankfully, there's still time to salvage the situation.

“Yes, Inspector Megure, Inspector Sato and I saw Fu and Takumi enter the apartment building and even greet the security guard. They seemed to know each other somewhat.”

"Officer Sato said that Fu and Takumi may have bought a house in the apartment complex, which is why they were able to get in."

“He had never been inside before!” Officer Takagi answered truthfully.

They didn't know when Pu and Jiang bought the house, since they couldn't possibly track Pu and Jiang 24 hours a day, so there must have been something they missed.

This oversight, however, is extremely fatal.

If Inspector Megure hadn't ordered them to keep watch for another day, something terrible would probably have happened.

Furthermore, Wataru Takagi also knew that Reiko Akiba was a friend of Natsuhiro Kitahara.

If I can't even handle this little thing, how am I supposed to meet Kitahara Natsuhiro in the future, and what will I say when we do meet?

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure said, "Okay, I understand. You and Inspector Sato continue to keep watch. I will have someone investigate the specific situation inside the Beika Apartment."

"Understood, Inspector Megure."

"Yes, let me know if you have any information."

"Yes!"

After finishing his sentence, Inspector Megure hung up the phone and then instructed his colleagues to investigate the residents of Beika Apartments. He then dialed Kitahara Natsuhiro's number.

However, Kitahara Natsuhiro's phone was always busy.

But that didn't matter. After seeing that Kitahara Natsuhiro's phone was unreachable, Inspector Megure dialed Teitan Elementary School directly.

The phone at Teitan Elementary School is staffed 24/7, so there's absolutely no chance of not being able to get through or no one answering unless the line is busy.

Just as Inspector Megure had guessed, the call to Teitan Elementary School went through immediately. He then introduced himself and asked the people at Teitan Elementary School to notify Kitahara Natsuhiro to come and answer the phone.

A few minutes later, Kitahara Natsuhiro's voice came through the phone; he was still talking to Akiba Reiko. Although Akiba Reiko was back home, having someone to talk to still made her feel at ease.

At that moment, Akiba Reiko was genuinely quite frightened.

"Hey, Inspector Megure, what happened?" Kitahara Natsuhiro asked directly, still on the phone with Akiba Reiko.

Because the call from Inspector Megure was very likely related to Reiko Akiba, and how could she, as the person involved, be completely unaware of it?

Furthermore, Akiba Reiko is not the kind of person who would casually reveal such things.

So it's not a big problem.

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure said, "Brother Kitahara, things are a bit complicated right now. There's been a problem with Ms. Akiba Reiko."

"According to the reports from Officer Takagi and Officer Sato, after following Ms. Akiba Reiko to her apartment, Fu and Takumi were able to enter the apartment as well. We suspect that he bought a property in Beika Apartments, which is why he was able to get in."

"We are currently verifying whether it is true or not, and we expect to have the results soon."

Pu Hejiang is a wealthy man. Although the apartments in Mihua Apartment are expensive, it is nothing to him.

After all, being a sound engineer and a curator is quite lucrative; he has long since achieved financial freedom and doesn't lack this little bit of money at all.

"I see." Kitahara Natsuhiro looked at his phone. "Reiko, you must have heard everything, right?"

“Hmm~~~” came a muffled voice from Akiba Reiko over the phone.

Clearly, she was stunned upon hearing the news.

I never expected that Pu and Jiang would actually get in, especially by purchasing real estate.

This method is reasonable and legal, and no one can say anything about it.

If Fu and Takumi are planning to do something to Akiba Reiko, then Akiba Reiko is truly in danger.

Even a large folding fan door couldn't stop Pu Hejiang, a man with a heart.

"Miss Reiko Akiba?" Inspector Megure looked surprised upon hearing the familiar voice, then quickly realized, "Brother Kitahara, so you were talking to Miss Reiko Akiba on the phone!"

"I was wondering why I couldn't get through to you. Oh, I see."

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu said, "Yes, because Reiko was a little scared, I called her to talk to her so she wouldn't be so scared."

"Moreover, Inspector Megure, your information is very timely, allowing Reiko to avoid danger in time."

Hearing this, Inspector Megure felt a little ashamed: "We were really ashamed that we couldn't do anything even when we knew that Fu and Takumi were planning to do something to Ms. Akiba Reiko."

"However, Officer Sato has already followed them."

"I can give Officer Sato's phone number to Ms. Akiba Reiko. You can stay together temporarily, so you won't have to worry about Fu and Takumi doing anything illegal."

Kitahara Natsuhiro nodded and said, "If it's Officer Sato, then it's certainly reassuring."

"Reiko, what do you think?"

"Officer Sato, is this Officer Sato Miwako?"

Miwako Sato was also an outstanding police officer in the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Division, and she had been featured in the newspaper. Reiko Akiba had seen a report about Miwako Sato in the newspaper, so she remembered her.

Upon hearing this, Inspector Megure said, "That's right, it's Inspector Sato Miwako. If you know her, then it's much easier to talk to you."

"You can contact us later. You can let Officer Sato in to protect you temporarily, and we will continue to monitor you."

"I absolutely will not allow a case, even a very serious one, to happen before my eyes."

Although he does not yet have sufficient grounds to arrest Fu and Takumi, he can still have someone carefully protect Akiba Reiko.

After all, he couldn't just stand by and watch Reiko Akiba be murdered.

This is something he won't allow!
As a detective with the Metropolitan Police Department, Inspector Megure is quite righteous and would never allow such a heinous crime to happen in front of him.

Otherwise, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.

Hearing this, Akiba Reiko was deeply moved and bowed slightly, saying, "Thank you so much, Inspector Megure."

"No, protecting the safety of Tokyo citizens is the responsibility of our Metropolitan Police Department."

"I'll give you Officer Sato's phone number now. You can just call Officer Sato."

“Okay.” Akiba Reiko nodded, immediately ran to her landline, and dialed the number Inspector Megure had given her.

Toot toot.
A few seconds later, the call was connected, and a woman's voice came through the phone.

"Hello, I am Miwako Sato. May I ask who you are?"

Upon hearing this, Akiba Reiko said, "Hello, I am Akiba Reiko, who has been taking care of you recently. Inspector Megure gave me this phone number and also told me that Fu and Takumi have entered this apartment building."

Sato Miwako nodded, then subconsciously looked down the corridor and said softly, "Yes, I saw him enter the apartment building with my own eyes, and I'm on his floor right now."

“I’m on the 24th floor now, and Pu and Jiang’s room is 2401. I saw him go in with my own eyes, and he hasn’t come out yet!”

Twenty-fourth floor?

Upon hearing the floor number, Akiba Reiko felt a sense of crisis.

Because she lives on the 25th floor, which is just one floor away.

If Pu and Jiang climb up, they can directly enter her balcony and thus the interior of the house.

Although this is on the 20th floor, which is very high and there is even wind, it doesn't mean anything to some people.

An art museum curator can wear armor and pin a person to a wall, while a frail woman who can't even open a bottle cap can kill her ex-boyfriend on a roller coaster.

So as long as you have the will, there is nothing you can't do.

After all, this is a world of science, full of amazing people, so climbing from the 24th floor to the 25th floor is nothing special.

It's only one layer away, which is practically the same as being infinitely close!
"Um, I live on the 25th floor, and I've already spoken with Inspector Megure. Can you come directly to my place?" Akiba Reiko said quickly.

"Okay, wait a moment."
