Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 45 Super Cold Reading

Yuan Yuzi asked one by one and learned that there were only four people who were close to the skeleton at that time, namely Yoshimura Yu, Hidenori, Miu and instructor Shirata. The first two were dragged over by Miu, and the latter came over to collect the skeleton a little in order to maintain order and let the students respect the dead.

Three minutes passed in the blink of an eye, and before Gen Yuzi had time to investigate further, Instructor Shirata took the instructors and trainees out of the cave.

She wanted to continue to stop him, but was stopped by Fushimi Shika.

"Alright, enough is enough. We are all very tired. If you have any questions, let's go back and ask them. Evidence won't run away." Fushimi Shika put his hands in his sleeves and yawned again, tears coming out. "As for this pile of bones, let's call the local police station to deal with it."

"But, but, what if the thief hides the evidence?"

In Yuan Yuzi's opinion, anyone who secretly takes other people's things and doesn't admit it is undoubtedly a thief.

"If they wanted to hide, they would have done it long ago. Why are you looking for them? Are you going to search everyone one by one?" Fushimi Shika said as they walked away, "Let's talk in private. We should at least give them some face."

Yuan Yuzi frowned, realizing that things were not simple. She followed Fushimi Shika and asked, "Do you know who stole the bullets?"

"do not know."

"You do know! Come on, tell me! How did you figure that out? I didn't notice anything at all!"

"No, I clearly said 'I don't know', how come it turned into 'know' in your ears?"

"This is the cold reading technique I recently learned from a book. It can tell whether the person being questioned is lying based on their micro-expressions! How about it, isn't it amazing? This is the charm of reasoning!"

Gen Yuzi never forgot to introduce Fushimi Shika's method of reasoning to her.

The two chatted as they walked through the forest in the opposite direction. They had driven up the mountain, so they would naturally drive down the mountain, without having to follow the large group on the trek.

Fushimi Shika opened the car door and asked casually, "What do you base your judgment on that I'm lying?"

"You don't dare look me in the eye!" Yuan Yuzi sat in the passenger seat, fastened her seat belt obediently, and said confidently: "The book says that once the person being questioned looks away and dares not look the questioner in the eye, it means he is lying."

"..."

Fushimi Shika closed the car door, turned sideways, and looked at Yuan Yuzi with wide eyes: "Come on, look into my eyes and ask again."

"Do you know who stole the evidence?" Yuan Yuzi actually asked.

"I don't know." said Fushimi Shika.

"Lie!" Yuan Yuzi made an immediate judgment.

"What's the reason this time?" asked Fushimi Shika.

"The book says that staring with eyes wide open and not looking away is also a sign of lying." Yuan Yuzi became more and more proud, she felt that she had understood the mystery of the human heart. It seems that it is not difficult to figure out the human heart. Thinking back to when Fushimi-san said that 'criminals themselves are illogical', now it seems that he was just making a sophistry! As a future famous detective and police inspector, no crime can escape my sharp eyes!

Fushimi Shika showed disdain, thinking back to when he had seen books like 'Learn a Little Cold Reading Technique Every Day', 'Twenty Ways to Teach You Quick Hypnosis', 'Practical Social Techniques to Gain Others' Trust Instantly' on street stalls, which also contained some martial arts secrets and practical household tips... He originally thought that only elementary school students and idiots with underdeveloped cerebellums would believe in these fabricated books and magazines, but he didn't expect that Yuan Yuzi actually believed them, and put them into practice with full confidence.

"That's amazing," Fushimi Shika said casually while stepping on the accelerator and steering, "I didn't expect that Tamako-san has mastered such an amazing skill. After graduation, it won't take long for her to be promoted to criminal police and become a well-known police inspector in the industry, right? This is really cause for celebration."

Yuan Yuzi was so delighted by the praise that she felt her waist and legs no longer hurt. Her calves, wearing hiking shoes, were stretched into an attractive curve. Even her nose, which was blocked by a cold, became unobstructed. She almost had a brain orgasm.

"Hehe, w-how can I be that impressive... After all, I have to work for two years before I can apply to be a criminal police officer. I'm still a little far from being a famous police officer or a famous detective."

Her calves were swaying under the seat, the aho-hair on her head was shaking back and forth, and she was savoring the flattery in her mind.

After a while, Yuan Yuzi felt that she couldn't just care about her own happiness. She wanted to treat everyone equally, so she said, "Fushimi-san, you are also very good. What you said just now was simply great, but a little too harsh. But it all touched my heart!"

"I was just talking nonsense." Fushimi Shika said indifferently.

He himself doesn't believe those nonsense, he just knows how to say what is beneficial to himself.

"How can such a heartfelt speech be nonsense? Fushimi-san is really arrogant and dishonest... "The most important quality of a police officer is to listen to the voices of those in pain, and to do this, you must become the strongest person." Wow, I can't think of this sentence in my life, it's simply my life creed!"

Yuan Yuzi's eyes sparkled. She took out the small notebook she carried with her and said excitedly, "Look! I wrote this sentence down. I will use it to remind myself from now on. No matter what happens, I must be strong!"

"Are you an elementary school student? Only elementary school students would copy slogans from books, right?" Fushimi Shika asked with a sidelong glance.

Yuan Yuzi snorted, thinking that she was a magnanimous person and would not bother with that tsundere.

If it was her temper in high school, she would have to teach Fushimi Kakashi a lesson, or at least make him take back what he said about the elementary school student! She is only 21 years old, and there is still room for growth. Maybe she will be meters tall next year!
The two drove down the mountain and returned to the inn. Yuan Yuzi borrowed the inn's phone to report the detailed location of the skeleton to the local police. After receiving a positive response, she and Fushimi Kaka went upstairs to their room.

As soon as they entered the room, they couldn't wait to take off their coats and get into the electric kotatsu. Fushimi Shika grabbed a pillow and lay on the tatami, closing his eyes and saying, "Go and close the curtains. I'm going to sleep."

Yuan Yuzi wanted to say why she was sleeping in during the day, but then she changed her mind and thought that Fushimi-kun hadn't slept all night because he took care of her, so she really should catch up on some sleep. She stood up and helped to close the curtains, and the bedroom fell into darkness, with only the warm yellow light coming through the gap in the kotatsu.

Yuan Yuzi crawled back into the kotatsu to keep warm. She sat at the table, stunned for a while, and then she realized something was wrong.

"Wait! Doesn't this mean sleeping together?!"

Blood rushed to her head, her face flushed, and she didn't dare to look at Fushimi Kakashi lying next to her. Her soft toes unconsciously arched in the kotatsu, and she curled up at the table, and could hear her heart beating.

How can a man and a woman stay in the same room alone? If someone sees them, they might misunderstand me, right?
Yuan Yuzi took a sneak peek, an ambiguous light cast on the boy's profile, his jet-black hair scattered on his face, he was falling asleep with an even breathing, and Yuan Yuzi then realized how long his eyelashes were.
