Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 135 Where is the Dog Meat?

Fengjian Takusai pushed open the door of the box, and four or five burly men with fleshy faces turned their heads at the same time. They were wearing bright red waiter uniforms and said "welcome" in an unpleasant voice.

Fushimi Kaka was sitting facing south, in the first seat, leaning against the back of the chair, trimming her nails with a nail clipper; Gen Tamako was sitting next to her, like a mascot, putting her little hands on the table and peeling an orange to eat.

The heating in the box was turned on high, and they both took off their police uniforms and hung them on the hanger.

Takusa Kazama was stunned. He saw several familiar faces in this group of people, one of whom was suspected to be a wanted criminal... What was he doing? Were they still here to eat?
"Sit down," Fushimi Shika blew on his nails and said, "You're welcome."

Takuya Kazama sat down opposite the two of them with a sullen face and said nothing. He could see that Fushimi Shika had bad intentions again.

Yuan Yuzi chewed an orange and turned around to see a young man standing behind Fengjian Takusai. He was wearing a white plaid shirt with a blue knitted sweater and a coat on his arm. Especially when he smiled, his eyes were clear and his temperament was calm, which made people like him at first sight.

If I have to describe it in one sentence, it would be that he feels like the healing male protagonist in a Japanese drama.

Takusa Kazama dragged the chair, making a harsh sound. He sat down with a big horse and a golden sword, looked around, and said nothing.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Kamei Yuryo," he bowed slightly, holding a gift, "I've often heard Mr. Takusai mention you two, and today I'm finally lucky enough to meet you..."

Kamei Youliang did not rush to give the gift, but put his coat on the back of the chair and sat down at the eight-immortals table.

It was a square table, but the four of them sat facing each other. Fushimi Shika smiled and said a few polite words, took the menu, ordered a pot of fragrant meat hot pot, and then asked everyone if they had any dietary restrictions. If not, he would order whatever he wanted.

Yuan Yuzi was going to warn Fushimi Shika not to eat dogs, but when she heard Fushimi Shika ordering fragrant meat, she didn't say much. Although she didn't know what fragrant meat was, from the name it should be some kind of game... Anyway, as long as it wasn't dog meat, it was fine.

"Takusai doesn't eat meat," Kamei Yuryo said, "He is a vegetarian."

Fushimi Shika and Gen Tamaki both looked up in surprise and looked at Kazama Takusai. The latter nodded, which was considered as tacit agreement, but he changed the subject and said, "I don't eat vegetarian food recently, I eat meat."

"Hey, have you recovered in Hokkaido? How is the northern scenery? Tell me about it, don't be so reserved."

Kamei Yuryo found a topic very naturally. He talked about the snow scene in Sapporo with a longing expression, which prompted Gen Tamako and Kazama Takusai to talk a little more.

The waiter served tea and appetizers and left the room one after another. A moment later, they came back with hot pot. The red soup was bubbling and the aroma of meat was spreading, making people salivate.

Everyone chatted while eating, with beads of sweat on their foreheads and noses. The soup base was obviously modified according to Japanese tastes, with a light spiciness but a rich soup base.

Yuan Yuzi enjoyed the meal very much. She had never eaten such delicious meat before. The muscle fibers were clearly visible and the fragrance lingered in her mouth. The atmosphere of the dinner was so good that she forgot to interrogate the suspect for a while.

It was a pleasure chatting with Kamei Yuryo. He spoke sincerely and was very good at flattering people.

When Gen Tamako talked about soup curry from her hometown, Kamei Yuryo would say, "I feel the same way! I used to think curry was too strong, but soup curry is a specialty of Sapporo." When Gen Tamako talked about the hard work of patrol police, Kamei Yuryo said with awe, "Being a policeman is a respectable choice. At least it is popular among children, right? I think you are amazing to be able to successfully get the job."...

Fushimi Shika narrowed his eyes and stared at the young man sitting opposite him through the steam from the hot pot.

Kamei Yuryo didn't even need to explore or test anything. He relied solely on his intuition to make her happy according to the "Gen Tamaki User Manual" exactly.

When the conversation was almost over, he placed the gift on the table, pushed it over, and said, "I heard from Mr. Takusai before that Officer Tamako was very tired from patrolling, so he knitted a scarf overnight... As a local citizen, I am very grateful to Officer Tamako for her contribution to Sugamo's public security. I hope you can accept this insignificant gratitude from the citizens of the jurisdiction."

If he gave it in his personal name, Yuan Yuzi would definitely not accept it.

However, he expressed his gratitude to the hard-working police officers as a "local citizen", which made Yuan Yuzi proud. She felt that her hard work during this period was not in vain. Sure enough, there were good citizens who saw it and showed respect to her as a patrol officer...

She was just about to reach out when she suddenly realized something was wrong.

Didn't Senior Fengjian say that he would bring the 'suspect' to dinner? In other words, the young man in front of him is very likely to be a shrimp rice! As a police officer handling the case, how could she accept things from the suspect involved in the case? Not to mention a scarf, even a needle or a piece of paper, she couldn't accept it! After it is proven that Kamei Yuliang is innocent, it won't be too late for her to accept the gift at that time. It would be even better if it was a silk banner...

Yuan Yuzi waved her hands repeatedly to express her refusal.

Kamei Yuryo noticed something and took back the gift with a smile, seemingly not minding being rejected at all. Seeing this, Yuan Yuzi felt a little relieved, thinking that this person seemed to be quite nice. Maybe there was some misunderstanding? At least there was no evidence to prove that he was the murderer...

Thinking of this, Yuan Yuzi suddenly remembered something very important. Her face changed slightly and she asked, "Excuse me...what is your relationship with Mrs. Kamei?"

Kamei Youliang paused while chewing, put down his chopsticks, looked sad, sighed deeply, and said frankly: "She is my mother."

……

The box suddenly became quiet, and the hot pot soup base was gurgling.

The grief on Kamei Youliang's face did not seem fake: "I'm sorry that she has caused trouble to everyone. I didn't expect her to do such a thing..."

"Where were you on the day of the incident?" Fushimi Shika picked up a piece of thigh meat for himself.

Yuan Yuzi swallowed nervously. She didn't expect that the 'murderer' that Senior Fengjian mentioned was actually the biological son of the deceased. This falling case seemed to be more complicated than she had imagined.

Kamei Youliang's expression remained unchanged: "She's on a business trip. If I were at home, I might be able to stop her, and this wouldn't have happened..."

"Oh! Where's the dog?" Fushimi asked while eating. "Where did the dog go?"

"What dog?" asked Kamei Youliang.

"Don't you have a St. Bernard at home?" Fushimi Shika raised his head and glanced at him.

Kamei Youliang suddenly realized: "Ah, you mean Marujiro, he was euthanized by the animal center half a year ago..."

"Why?" asked Fushimi Shika.

"The animal center has records..."

"I want you to say it yourself." Fushimi Shika interrupted.

"Because of biting, Marujiro bit a child and the family paid a lot of money. According to regulations, pet dogs that bite people must be euthanized..."

"Who did you bite?" asked Fushimi Shika.

"The son of Mrs. Tsunade who lives downstairs from me." Kamei Youliang paused and added: "It was just an accident."

"Are you saying that the fall from the building was an accident, or that the dog biting someone was an accident?" Fushimi Shika put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth, opened a bottle of sake, and filled the glasses for the others. When it was Gen Tamako's turn, he replaced it with milk.

"Both." said Kamei Youliang.

"Eh... is that so?" Fushimi Shika raised his wine glass and asked coldly, "Why don't you guess where this pot of dog meat came from?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone's faces changed suddenly.
