Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 48: Not guilty unless convicted

The punishment for Japanese police officers losing their guns varies depending on the specific circumstances. For example, if no serious consequences are caused and the guns are recovered in time, they will usually be subject to internal disciplinary sanctions, such as suspension or warning.

Shirata Masahiro reported the incident in a timely manner, and his superiors believed that no serious consequences were caused, so he was demoted in accordance with regulations.

He worked hard to become a criminal police officer and made some achievements in the police station, but all of them were in vain.

This is not the end. Now that his police gun has been found to have caused a death, even if the person committed suicide, the police involved will be held criminally responsible. It may be a bit exaggerated to say that his life is over, but his police career is definitely over.

This shows how much awareness Shirata Masahiro needs to have in order to confess the truth.

He had worked hard all his life, but he had only made this one mistake. Anyone would feel unbalanced. But he had figured it out. Since it was his own fault, he should accept the punishment no matter what.

"If I continue to conceal this, I will feel guilty and will not be able to stay in the police academy to continue educating students." Shirata Masahiro put out the cigarette in his hand: "Please report to the inspector. No matter what the final verdict is, I can accept it calmly."

He paused and emphasized: "Please."

Yuan Yuzi didn't know what to do for a moment. She stuttered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.

This was the first time she encountered a situation where morality and law conflicted. According to her inner thoughts, she did not want Instructor Bai Tian to be punished for this; but for the justice and fairness of the law, she should report Instructor Bai Tian and let him get the punishment he deserved...

When she was in a dilemma, Fushimi Shika patted her head and said softly: "You have met a good teacher who leads by example."

"Huh?" Yuan Yuzi was stunned.

"Don't you always insist that 'law is justice'? Since this is the path you have chosen, you must continue to walk firmly no matter how difficult it is."

Fushimi Shika raised his head and looked into Shirata Masahiro's eyes. "Instructor Shirata thinks the same, right? Everyone is equal before the law, and of course I am no exception. If I disregard the law because of my personal feelings, and other police officers who have thrown their guns follow suit, how can we talk about fairness? Without fairness, how can there be justice?"

Shirata Masahiro remained silent. Now he had no way to flatter himself anymore. He could only let Fushimi Shika teach Minamoto Tamaki in front of him.

Yuan Yuzi's little head was buzzing, and she finally realized the weight of the five words "Law is justice". This is not the A and B options in a mystery game, nor is it the cool lines of the police after catching the criminal in a mystery novel, but a heavy double-edged sword.

A person holding a sword is always successful, but he may become a sacrifice for the sword's sharpening at any time.

"I...I understand."

Gen Yuzi took a deep breath, knelt on the tatami, and bowed earnestly to Shirata Masahiro: "In the future, I will also uphold the principles of fairness and justice, whether to others or to myself."

Fushimi Shika smiled with a teachable smile and collected the evidence on the ground. He said righteously, "In this case, we will send this evidence for inspection as you ordered. It will all be up to fate as to how the prosecutors and the court decide."

"Just to my liking."

Shirata Masahiro had said all he needed to say, and he stood up to say goodbye. Before leaving, he did not forget to inform the two that the bus would arrive at seven o'clock, and all the students would then take the bus back to school together.

The bedroom became quiet. Fushimi Shika was sitting by the kotatsu eating oranges, looking in a good mood.

It took Yuan Yuzi a long time to recover, and she felt that she had learned the most important lesson in her life.

But she thought about it again and felt that something was wrong. Fushimi-san was such a tsundere. Didn't he always look down on the idea that "law is justice"? Why did he suddenly change his personality today?

very strange.

Yuan Yuzi narrowed her eyes and used the super cold reading technique again. She stared at Fushimi Lu and asked, "Fushimi classmate, why are you suddenly speaking up for Instructor Shirata? Do you have any ulterior motives?" "How is that possible!"

Fushimi Shika's eyes widened, with an expression of 'you've gone too far', the aura of justice in his body surging, he slammed the table and said, "As a member of the same reasoning team, you actually doubt your partner and my devotion to justice? I am so disappointed!"

Yuan Yuzi panicked and quickly put her hands together to apologize: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean that... It's just because you just said 'you met a good teacher who leads by example', instead of 'we met a good teacher who leads by example', so I was wondering if you were lying... I'm sorry! I shouldn't have doubted you!"

"Really? How could such a heartfelt speech be fake?" Fushimi Shika crossed his arms, shook his head and sighed, "Being suspicious like you is not conducive to unity!"

"I'm sorry! I will reflect on it!"

Yuan Yuzi apologized loudly, feeling that she had indeed gone a little too far.

If I think about it carefully, Fushimi-kun went to the mountains to pick her up and accompanied her to investigate the nameless skeleton. What kind of selfless spirit is this? I actually doubted him. It was really wrong!
"A wooden stake pierced by a nail will leave a hole. If apologies are useful, what do we need the police for? The real chill is not making a scene, and the real disappointment is not crying. There is a kind of disappointment called knowing it in your heart. Don't let the people who care about you become less proactive, and don't let the people who treat you well feel that it's not worth it..."

Fushimi Shika's series of moves made Yuan Yuzi lose her direction, which made her feel even more guilty.

After a while, seeing that Gen Tamako was about to cry because of the PUA, Fushimi Shika finally stopped.

He stood up and asked Yuan Yuzi to stay in the room and reflect on her mistakes. He was going to the bathroom, hoping to see Yuan Yuzi's sincerity in her apology when he returned to the room.

"I understand." Yuan Yuzi knelt on the ground, facing the wall, and lowered her head with tears in her eyes.

Fushimi Shika walked downstairs in his wooden clogs. When he passed the front desk, he picked up a packet of bath additives, walked into the bathroom and locked the door.

"So, where do we start?"

Fushimi Kashi put on latex gloves for cleaning the toilet, placed the bullets and police gun on the sink, and an eager smile appeared on his face.

The so-called "eliminating sin" does not necessarily require physical elimination. He has always wanted to try and see if there are other ways to eliminate sin.

Now, I finally have the opportunity to experiment.

Fushimi Shika used a scraper to clean the copper rust on the surface of the bullet and the police gun, changed the bullet type by squeezing it with a pipe clamp, and engraved special characters on the bullet. The police gun has a corresponding number, the first four digits are the last four digits of the area postal code, and the rest is the police officer's personal number. He leaned over and started micro-carving, changing a few numbers.

Next, he poured a bathing agent containing sulfur into the plunger, placed the bullet in it, and then poured in an acidic cleaning agent. The mixture of the two would produce hydrogen sulfide gas, which could quickly rust the copper.

This thing is deadly if you inhale it, so it is quite dangerous. So Fushimi held his breath and quickly sucked the plunger onto the sink, creating a sealed environment.

That's right, he planned to forge evidence to help Shirata Masahiro get rid of the crime.

……

"Clearance Reward: Clear the sins of Shirata Masahiro and you will receive 2 attribute points."

……

"As long as you are not convicted, you are innocent, right?"

Fushimi Shika stared at his watch and counted down in his mind: "In court, victory is justice."
