Chapter 154 Sera Masumi’s Request (44)

Chiyoda Ward, Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters.

Miike Naeko, a traffic police officer who had just finished a day's work, was just about to call her friend and superior Yumi Miyamoto to go home together, but she found that Yumi Miyamoto was nowhere to be found.

"Hey, have you seen Officer Miyamoto?"

Miike Naeko looked at her colleagues around her and asked.

"Has Officer Miyamoto returned home?"

"That's impossible. Her bag is still there."

Miike Naeko pointed at the bag on top of Yumi Miyamoto's work desk and spoke.

"That's not clear. Maybe he went to the toilet. Hiss——"

Miike Naoko was listening to her colleague's words when she suddenly noticed that the other person's eyes widened.

She followed the other person's eyes and then her eyes widened.

Although Yumi Miyamoto's popularity in the Metropolitan Police Department is not as high as her best friend Miwako Sato, who is known as the "Flower of the Metropolitan Police Department",

But her appearance is also one of the best in the Metropolitan Police Department’s Traffic Division.

At this time, Yumi Miyamoto took off her usual traffic police uniform and put on makeup again.
Her usual strong and decisive temperament like a big sister was concealed a lot, and she seemed more gentle and moving.

"No wonder the male police officers around me stared at me."

Miike Naeko thought to herself, and then spoke to Miyamoto Yumi with stars in her eyes:
"Officer Miyamoto, are you going out on a date with your boyfriend today? That's why you're dressed so beautifully!"

However, after hearing what Miike Naeko said, Yumi Miyamoto's pretty face suddenly showed an extremely impatient expression.

"Huh? That guy is not worth my dressing up for. The guy I'm going to meet today is a handsome guy who is a hundred times more handsome than Kumayoshi (Haneda Hideyoshi)!"

"Is that so?"

Miike Naoko agreed somewhat awkwardly.

She knew that Yumi Miyamoto was bragging again.

"Anyway, that's it. I can't go with you Miaozi today. Bye."

Yumi Miyamoto picked up her bag, said goodbye to Miike Naeko and her colleagues, and left the Metropolitan Police Department.

She soon arrived at a rather luxurious German restaurant in Chuo Ward, very close to Chiyoda Ward.

Here, Yumi Miyamoto met the person who had asked her out today.

Yumi Miyamoto is an inspector in the Traffic Division of the Metropolitan Police Department. Her boyfriend is Hideyoshi Haneda, a shogi player known as the Taiko Meijin.

It was definitely not for her boyfriend Hideyoshi Haneda that she put on new makeup after get off work today.

And the person she was about to meet was indeed much more handsome than her boyfriend, just as Yumi Miyamoto said.

Yumi Miyamoto was not afraid of the various unruly bikers and gangsters.

When I thought about the person I was going to meet next, I felt a little nervous.

She didn't understand why the other party asked her out alone.

But she knew that she had to behave well in front of the other party.

Yumi Miyamoto came to the agreed seat and sat down, then greeted the "handsome guy" opposite:
"Good evening, Ms. Sera."

"Thank you for your hard work, Officer Miyamoto."

That’s right, the handsome guy that Yumi Miyamoto mentioned is none other than Hideyoshi Haneda’s younger sister, high school detective Masumi Sera.

"Wow, I've rarely seen Officer Miyamoto without her police uniform. She's really a beauty."

Masumi Sera glanced at Yumi Miyamoto opposite her and said with a smile.

When Miyamoto Yumi heard Sera Masumi's comments, her cheeks flushed slightly and she felt a little embarrassed.

"Officer Miyamoto, please order whatever you want. It's my treat today."

Masumi Sera said as he pushed the menu in front of Yumi Miyamoto.

When Yumi Miyamoto heard this, she was shocked and her eyes widened.

"Ms. Sera, you are still a high school student, right? I should be the one treating you today."

"It's okay. I have quite a bit of pocket money. Officer Miyamoto, don't worry about it." Sera Masumi said with a smile, "Besides, it was me who asked Officer Miyamoto out today, so I should be the one to treat him."

"No, no, no!"

After a long struggle, Yumi Miyamoto and Masumi Sera finally snatched the power to pay the bill from her "sister-in-law".

After ordering two sets of meals totaling nearly 7,000 yen, the two began chatting.

The content of their conversation naturally revolved around Haneda Hideyoshi.

After talking about Haneda Hideyoshi, Miyamoto Yumi unconsciously forgot her disguise, and her tone was full of disgust.

"Haha, Officer Miyamoto and Hideyoshi-san have a really good relationship."

Masumi Sera joked. When Miyamoto Yumi heard what Masumi Sera said, she realized that she had accidentally exposed her "true nature" and her face immediately turned red with embarrassment.

Fortunately, the aperitif was served at this time, and Yumi Miyamoto hurriedly picked up the wine glass and took a sip to cover up her embarrassment.

As for Masaharu Sera.

Since she was not yet an adult, she was drinking regular beverages.

After nearly an hour of chatting, the distance between Yumi Miyamoto and Masumi Sera was quickly shortened under the influence of alcohol.

Her attitude towards Sera Masumi was not as nervous as it was at the beginning, and the two of them soon began to become familiar with each other as if they were good friends who had known each other for many years.

Soon, dinner entered the final stage of dessert and after-dinner drinks.

It was at this time that Yumi Miyamoto heard Sera Masumi speak:

"Sister Miyamoto, I came to you this time because I want your help with something."

"Don't worry, Sister Shiliang, I'll take care of anything!"

Yumi Miyamoto, who was slightly drunk, patted her chest vigorously and was quite pleased with Sera Masumi's address of "Sister Miyamoto".

"I want to see the surveillance video related to the car accident on August 8 last year."

"what--?!"

Upon hearing this, Yumi Miyamoto was immediately awakened from her drunken state.

She widened her eyes and looked at the detective sister opposite her, who was only 17 years old but already well-known in the Metropolitan Police Department. She was extremely shocked by what Sera Masumi said.

"What did you say?"

"The work of investigating the national highway entrance and exit surveillance should be in charge of Sister Miyamoto, right?"

"I want to see all the surveillance footage from that time, can I?"

Masumi Sera looked at Yumi Miyamoto and asked softly.

"No, no, no, how can this be possible?!"

Miyamoto Yumi thought that Sera Masumi was here to evaluate her, but she didn't expect the actual situation to be completely different.

"Ms. Sera, stop joking."

"I'm not kidding, I'm really asking Sister Miyamoto."

Masumi Sera looked at Yumi Miyamoto and said with a serious expression.

"Among all the traffic police officers at the scene of the car accident last year, Sister Miyamoto was the one with the highest rank."

"Then it stands to reason that Sister Miyamoto should be the main person in charge of investigating the murderer."

"Or maybe the investigation was done by the officers under Sister Miyamoto."

"So I came to ask Sister Miyamoto for help."

"This is against the rules. How can we let outsiders watch the Metropolitan Police Department's video? We'll be in trouble if we're discovered!"

Yumi Miyamoto couldn't help but raise her voice.

This immediately attracted many diners around to look over.

"The Metropolitan Police Department prohibits outsiders from watching, simply to protect personal privacy and case confidentiality."

"I basically accompanied Officer Sato throughout the entire process of investigating the car accident, so I knew the entire case and there was no risk of leaking confidential information."

"And Sister Miyamoto should also be certain that I can't be the criminal, let alone be in cahoots with the murderer."

"I just want to identify the real culprit!"

Sera Masumi said.

"I heard that the murderer has been identified down to only one person, but there has been no progress in finding that one person."

"I am also investigating that case now. I want to help the victim Akikawa find the real murderer and bring the murderer to justice as soon as possible, so I want to ask for the help of Sister Miyamoto."

"The victim, Akikawa, who lost his mother, has been living in fear and timidity of the murderer for the past six months!"

Masumi Sera stood up, leaned forward and looked at Yumi Miyamoto in front of her, her voice strong and powerful.

After a huge psychological struggle, Yumi Miyamoto slowly said:

"I have three conditions."

"First, the video cannot be copied or taken away. It must be viewed on my laptop."

"Second, I have to accompany you throughout the process to prevent the video from being leaked."

"Three, only one day."

Masumi Sera looked at Yumi Miyamoto who finally gave in, and a beautiful smile appeared on her pretty face.

She sat back in her seat and nodded heavily:
"it is good--!"
