Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 190 Anonymous Tape

Yuan Yuzi didn't want to say more, so she skipped the topic and asked everyone if they had any other questions.

The patrolmen looked confused. In fact, before they gathered, they had not really thought about what questions to ask. They completely treated this guidance and training as a celebrity meeting. The questions they wanted to ask were probably like: "How can I get promoted as quickly as you?", "What is your current relationship?", "If you don't have a partner, would you like to come to the social gathering?"... When it came to asking serious guidance questions, they were all at a loss.

The patrolmen asked a few insignificant questions dryly, such as 'What should you pay attention to when patrolling', 'What should you do if you encounter a suspect', 'What are the taboos when assisting in an investigation'... Yuan Yuzi answered them one by one seriously, which made them feel even more guilty.

I should have done my homework earlier.

Director Moriki stood aside and sneered. She had already thought about how to deal with this group of beasts of burden.

After the guidance and training, it is daily practice.

Neither of them could help in this part, after all, Fushimi Shika was a paralyzed soldier, and Gen Tamako's physical fitness was as bad as Watanabe Shun's hairstyle, which was really not good enough. At the signal of Director Moriki, the two simply watched from the sidelines in the training room.

The patrolmen put on their protective gear and began to practice arrest techniques, grappling techniques, and wrestling in front of the two men. Fushimi Shika yawned as he watched. He turned his head and asked Yuan Yuzi in a low voice, "Didn't you say you had some clues about the heavenly punishment?"

"Why are you in such a hurry? The training hasn't ended yet."

Gen Yuzi smiled secretly in her heart. She didn't expect that keeping others in suspense was so satisfying. No wonder Fushimi-kun always liked to leave things unsaid in the past!
As a member of the reasoning team, they shoulder the important task of hunting down the real culprit of "Heavenly Punishment". Fushimi Shika is so concerned, which just shows that he is serious and has a strong centripetal force. He used to make excuses to be lazy again and again, and even charged her partner fee on this ground. Now that he heard that there is a clue, he is more active than anyone else... As expected, Fushimi-kun is a dead tsundere!

Humph, if he was sincere, then she might consider revealing the answer.

The corners of Yuan Yuzi's mouth turned up, and she couldn't hide her smug expression. If the occasion wasn't so inappropriate, she would have happily hummed a little tune. She had already made up the lyrics: La la la, wu ha ha, the stupid assistant is running around in circles, and Officer Yuzi is showing off her might...

Looking at her expression, Fushimi Shika roughly guessed what she was thinking.

This guy has really gotten too cocky recently. He thinks he can't do anything to her just because he's in a wheelchair? How ridiculous. He's so naive.

Fushimi Shika suddenly looked up and shouted, "Stop the training." In front of everyone, he suddenly announced that he would hold a welcome dinner, and he would pay for it all - this was a token of his kindness as a senior, and he asked everyone not to refuse. The seniors of the seniors would also be there, and the tradition of fighting in front of Sugamo Station must not be broken.

When the patrolmen heard this, they all applauded and suddenly felt that Senior Yang Shou wasn't that bad. Although he was a little harsh, maybe it was all for their own good! Which senior would pay for a dinner with his juniors? I couldn't find one even with a lantern!
Yuan Yuzi caught the key words: 'Senior's senior is coming', and the hair on her head stood up. Her smug smile suddenly collapsed. She said in a low voice with an embarrassed look on her face: "Can I not go?"

The smile shifted to Fushimi Shika's face, and he said in a kind tone: "No, didn't you say so? The tradition passed down from generation to generation cannot be lost."

"But, but..."

"Besides, investigating the Heavenly Punishment isn't just a matter for the two of us, right? Senior Kazama was also involved at the time, and I think it would be better if he was present."

At this point, Fushimi Shika paused and asked, "So what exactly is this 'clue' you're talking about? It's not a made-up excuse to trick me out, right?"

"Of course not!" Yuan Yuzi retorted.

She was in no mood to keep Fushimi Lu in suspense any longer, so she got straight to the point and said, "A few days ago, Patrolman Koban received an anonymous package with a bloody tape inside... It was Uncle Zhao's tape."

Fushimi's heart tightened slightly, and he asked, "Did you listen to it? What was recorded in it?"

Yuan Yuzi shook her head: "Not yet. The forensic department is testing blood, checking letter paper, and tracing the source of the package. They said the results will be out today. After they file the evidence, I will go and get a backup." Fushimi Shika tapped the handrail with his fingertips, as if he was worried about something. Seeing this, Yuan Yuzi thought he was worried about the dinner, so she whispered: "Don't worry, I won't be absent."

"Ah, um."

Fushimi Shika nodded and called to make a reservation at the izakaya.

With so many people having dinner together and they are not very familiar with each other, he would definitely not choose a high-end restaurant; but if the restaurant he chose was too bad, he would lose face, so going to an izakaya was just right. A group of people sat on the tatami, eating and drinking around the wooden table, just like the class reunion in the TV series, with good quality and low price, and a good environment and atmosphere.

"If you really don't want to see Kazama-senpai, I won't call them."

Fushimi Shika just wanted to scare Gen Tamako and teach her a lesson.

But he didn't expect that Yuan Yuzi would react so strongly. He tried twice and was sure that Yuan Yuzi had a knot in her heart. Maybe there was a thorn in her heart... It was really inappropriate to repeatedly expose other people's scars. Fushimi Shika reflected for a second and decided to compensate Yuan Yuzi with a small cake tonight.

Yuan Yuzi's eyes wandered, her face was wooden: "Ah, no, how could that be, I, I have always respected my predecessors..."

"Don't force yourself." Fushimi Shika said casually.

"I'm not forcing myself, I just... I just don't know how to face Senior Kazama." Gen Yuzi lowered her head and said in a low voice.

"We are partners. If you have any troubles, you can always consult me," Fushimi Shika paused and added, "It's still 500 yen per time, just the price of a bowl of ramen, no cheating."

Hearing this, Yuan Yuzi felt warm in her heart.

Regarding that matter, she thought about it over and over again, and it seemed that she could only talk to Fushimi-kun.

After obtaining Director Moriki's consent, the two went into the lounge to talk privately, and said they would go for a dinner after the talk.

Yuan Yuzi leaned against the door, took a deep breath, and said frankly: "I, I am indeed very troubled."

"Yeah." Fushimi Shika nodded. He sat in the wheelchair, moved into a comfortable position, and motioned for Gen Tamako to continue.

"I have thought it through. It was not Senior Fengjian who killed Grandpa. He did that stupid thing for his daughter... If it was Grandpa, he would do the same for me."

Gen Yuzi twirled her fingers, her voice getting lower and lower as she spoke: "Besides, Senior Kazama feels very guilty. I can see that he wants to make it up to me... Actually, I don't hate him. How can I hate someone if I'm asked to do so all of a sudden?"

"But I don't want to forgive him either. If I reconcile with him like before, I will feel very guilty, so guilty that I can't breathe, and I feel that I absolutely cannot do this... Tell me, am I sick?"

Gen Yuzi raised her head and met Fushimi Shika's gaze. The latter's gaze was a little strange, not like sympathy, nor like worry, but rather a bit like observation.

"So... even if you encounter unforgivable betrayal, you won't hate the other person?" Fushimi Shika asked playfully.

Yuan Yuzi shook her head and said, "You can only hate after you have loved."
