Chapter 224 Regaining Life
The factory suddenly became quiet. Eating melons is human nature.

Watanabe Shun was more familiar with Fushimi Shika than anyone else, and he was so shocked when he heard this. It was the first time he heard Fushimi Shika apologize sincerely... Last time, Fushimi Shika reported him for slacking off and drinking at work in front of Kujo Yui, and he still remembered it clearly! Until now, he has never heard Fushimi Shika say a word of "Private Marseille"!
Could it be that the two of them are in love?

Watanabe Shun frowned and found that things were not that simple.

Hearing this, Yuan Yuzi's eyes lit up, like gems washed by tears. She hummed, without commenting, and quietly waited for Fushimi-kun's next words.

Fushimi Shika knew that he couldn't fool people at this stage, so he could only turn around and say to his followers frankly, "I'm sorry, I lied to you."

"From the beginning, I didn't believe in so-called super powers... Otomo-kun, I was lying when I said I joined the church because I believed in you."

"That's right, everyone. I have never believed in Aum Shinrikyo. All the scriptures and teachings are made up by me... If you read more philosophy books, you will find that I often copy other people's famous sayings."

"As a regular criminal police officer, I condoned the illegal and criminal acts that happened before my eyes, and even took advantage of the oppression you suffered, saving you from danger in the name of justice. In fact, it was out of my own selfish interests... I should have called for reinforcements and reported to the police immediately, instead of going along with it and continuing to indoctrinate you with extreme ideas."

"What happened today is my fault."

"If you say that we should focus on deeds instead of heart, then that would be an excuse. My father taught me to be honest with others since I was young, but I forgot his advice. I feel guilty."

"Here, I sincerely apologize to you all and solemnly declare that the so-called miracles and supernatural powers do not exist. I will officially withdraw from Aum Shinrikyo and will never engage in religious-related work again."

After saying that, Fushimi Shika glanced at Gen Tamako, with an expression that seemed to say "Are you satisfied?" The latter felt a little embarrassed, put her hands behind her back, pouted, and looked away.

Fushimi Lu sighed helplessly, leaned over to her ear, lowered his voice, and said, "Public affairs and private affairs must be separated. Let's talk about the quarrel and the disappearance when we get home, okay?"

Gen Yuzi nodded, and she wiped her tears carelessly, feeling quite heavy-hearted. Fushimi-kun had said so, so she couldn't pursue the matter any further. This feeling was just like when her mother spanked her when she was a child and told her to go eat.

She whispered, "I knew that Fushimi-san was actually a decent person at heart."

Fushimi Shika noticed the change in address immediately. Minamoto Tamako didn't call him Fushimi-kun, but Fushimi-san... At first, he thought Minamoto Tamako was holding a grudge and that he was afraid that he would not be able to get over this. Then, Fushimi Shika suddenly felt that this sentence sounded particularly familiar. After a moment of stunned silence, he subconsciously said:
"Nonsense, isn't this obvious?"

Yuan Yuzi snorted, seeming a little happy, but also like she was still angry.

The believers finally came to their senses. The returnees applauded and cheered, while the fanatics cursed. The two sides started arguing fiercely and were about to have a physical conflict. Fushimi Shika slammed the katana into the ground, piercing the tatami with a loud bang.

"Gentlemen, don't forget my suggestion." His tone was unquestionable.

The crowd suddenly fell silent, everyone looked at each other, no one spoke. Yuan Yuzi felt something was wrong, she frowned again, stared at Fushimi Shika, suspecting that he was hiding something else from her. Fushimi Shika pretended not to see it, he whistled at Watanabe Shun, the latter immediately came to his senses, dragged Yuan Yuzi out of the factory, drove to an area with a signal, and called the police for reinforcements.

After the detectives arrived at the factory, the believers did not resist. They sat obediently in the cafeteria, waiting for Fushimi Shika to serve their meal.

Master Zhengwu left behind a lot of high-quality ingredients and several boxes of expensive red wine. Now all this money of the people has gone into the stomachs of the believers... Everyone enjoyed the last meal very much, and even the fanatical believers were concentrating on eating.

The Arakawa Ward Police Station was short on police force, and Kinoshita Shohei smelled a scent of merit, so he took the initiative to apply for cross-district cooperation, on the grounds that the police officers from the Toshima Ward Police Station were urgently pursuing a criminal gang.

The director later supplemented the case report, claiming that the Toshima District police had been tracking down and cracking down on the cult gang, and had specially sent an elite detective to infiltrate the cult... In order to be more convincing, the director used the "Great Time and Space Reversal Technique". The case report was filed more than a month ago, and the seal on it was not dry yet, but it was indeed effective more than a month ago.

Yuan Yuzi cooperated in the investigation and when she learned about this, she went to confront the director that night. The latter claimed that he had secretly filed a case against Yuan Yuzi, but he was worried about the bad influence, so he didn't tell her.

Gen Tamako didn't understand the ins and outs of the matter, and thought that the chief really had good intentions. The whole police station had been quietly helping to find Fushimi-kun, but she knew nothing about it and even turned around to blame the chief. It was really wrong... Although she always felt that something was not right, the official document of the case report surely could not be forged, right?

The believers were quite cooperative and they were divided into two groups, namely 'guilty' and 'innocent'.

The guilty believers admitted their crimes very frankly, claiming that they were the ones who killed all the Shogo masters in the cult, including the branch leader Shoda Asano Ryo. The police also identified several murders, and the believers confessed without even looking at them, helping the police station solve many old unsolved cases.

The only condition for their confession is that they must serve their sentences in designated prisons after the court's verdict.

The innocent believers cried and complained about the oppression they had suffered within the sect. They claimed that all they did every day was meditate and chant scriptures, and that they had not participated in any criminal activities... After the police pretended to investigate, they simply let these people go home.

Afterwards, the police found the bodies of the Inagawa-kai members in the factory area. Because of the train shootout, the Toshima Ward police planned to turn a blind eye, so Kinoshita Shojin personally went to the Inagawa-kai to warn them and said that this would not happen again.

No civilians were accidentally injured in this case. It not only struck down the criminals, but also rescued many believers who were illegally imprisoned. The police also seized a large amount of stolen money and evidence of the crimes of Asano Ryo and his gang in the dark room of the factory... It can be said that it was a solid case and a political achievement that was picked up for free.

After the case was reported, the Aum Shinrikyo headquarters quickly cut ties, claiming that it was unaware of the situation of the Tokyo branch, and that Aum Shinrikyo was not involved in any illegal or criminal activities, and that everything was the personal behavior of Asano Ryo.

As for Fushimi Shika, all the believers unanimously claimed that he was innocent. When the police asked about the cause of death of the core members of the sect, more than a dozen fanatical believers rushed to take the blame...Since Fushimi Shika was lurking to investigate the case, was a colleague, and had no victims, the police station did not hold him accountable.

It is worth mentioning that Kei Horie was arrested for murder in the street. Before going to prison, he told his mother and sister to live a good life. Miki Shirakawa smiled strangely. She put her arm around her daughter's shoulders and said through the glass window:
"Yes, we will all be reborn."
