Tokyo: Rabbit Police and Her Evil Partner

Chapter 49 Next stop, Tokyo Sugamo!

On the way back, the students were exhausted and snoring could be heard in the bus.

When they first set out, they were all full of confidence and vowed to strive for the best; now they feel that just passing the exam is good enough, and as for the ranking, they will just take it as it comes.

In Fushimi Shika's opinion, humans are actually no different from monkeys, and their fickle tricks work everywhere.

After arriving at the school, Fushimi handed over the forged evidence to the police. When questioned by the prosecutor, he claimed that these things were found on the bones in the mountains.

As for Shirata Masahiro, he didn't mention a word.

It is precisely because of this that the prosecutors did not even think about the lost gun incident. There is really no way to investigate a body that has been dead in the mountains for several years, and it will most likely remain an unsolved case.

At most, the police would file a symbolic case, notify the family, appease the victim's wishes, and finally rule it a suicide - although it was indeed suicide, this seemingly dedicated but actually perfunctory behavior has always been criticized by the public and is considered a characteristic of Japanese criminal police.

However, Japan has its own national conditions. The superiors demand a 100% crime-solving rate and allocate only a small amount of funds. The subordinates are left with a backlog of cases that they cannot solve no matter how hard they try.

In the past, the police would ask the Yamaguchi-gumi to maintain social order, but nowadays it’s already very good enough that they can help collect the bodies!
The next day, the school announced the results.

Everyone gathered under the notice board and looked up, only to see Fushimi Kaka's name ranked first, followed closely by Minamoto Tamaki in second place...

The instructors deliberately put Fushimi Shika on the grill, but unfortunately they underestimated Fushimi Shika's thick skin... He didn't care about the complicated looks from his classmates, and even had the nerve to say congratulations to his classmates, congratulations to everyone for getting the desired result.

No matter how Yoshimura Yu complained, Instructor Shirata still fulfilled his promise and assigned the positions according to the rankings this year.

The students whose names were called went up to the stage to fill out the form and wrote their names next to the koban they wanted.

Fushimi Shika was the first to be called onto the stage. He looked around and selected repeatedly.

I directly pass the job interview in remote areas. Although there is a lot of free time in those places, the quality of life is too poor and the salary is not high.

I also passed the rounds in the prosperous areas. These days, the time is right to crack down on gangsters. If I’m not careful, I might be dragged in as cannon fodder to fight with gangsters…

He thought about it for a long time, carefully selected, and finally set his eyes on the Sugamo Station Front Office in the Tokyo FT area.

Fushimi Shika had some impression of this place. He remembered that he seemed to have seen it on the Internet in his previous life. Sugamo was a shopping area specially designed for the elderly. There were no dazzling neon billboards on the streets, only traditional handwritten signs. Later, it gradually became a gathering place for the elderly in Japan.

It is located in Toshima Ward, Tokyo, and is a bustling district in the city along with Ginza, Shinjuku, Shibuya, and Ikebukuro.

Not only that, Sugamo is cheaper than other places, and is nicknamed "Harajuku for grandmas". For leisure and entertainment, you can take the train to Ikebukuro...

The crime rate is low, the public security is good, and it is located in a bustling neighborhood. My daily job is to take care of retired elderly people.

Not bad, not bad, that’s it.

Fushimi Shika filled in his name in the space next to the exchange office in front of Sugamo Station.

Shirata Masahiro raised his eyebrows in surprise, thinking that he was indeed the top-ranked student of the year. He chose the most dangerous area instead of the good ones... Not bad, he is very ambitious! He has a strong character!
In 90, Sugamo was the second most criminal area in Tokyo, with Kabukicho in Shinjuku ranking first.

There are large areas of old neighborhoods and apartments in the area, which are home to many low-income people, pornographic venues and underground gambling dens. The level of chaos can be compared to the contemporary Kowloon Walled City.

This was probably the information gap of the time. Fushimi Shika suddenly learned that he would be assigned a role based on his graduation grades, and he had no preparation in advance.

The Internet was not that developed back then, so he couldn't find out the security conditions in various regions even if he wanted to. The gossip provided by his classmates was even less credible. He could only rely on his impression to avoid areas where gangs were entrenched and chose a retirement district 20 or 30 years in the future.

After Fushimi Shika stepped down, the next one was Minamoto Tamako. She was born and raised in Hokkaido and had never been to Tokyo, but she had always heard that Tokyo was very prosperous. Seeing that Fushimi Shika was chosen as the Tokyo koban, she felt worried about leaving home, but also had a vision for the future. In any case, since they had decided to work together, there was no need to hesitate.

She wrote her name neatly, right next to Fushimi Shika's name.

By the way, normally the Hokkaido Police and the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department are local police agencies, and local graduates will only serve in the local area. It is impossible for students who graduated from the Hokkaido Police School to go to Tokyo to be patrolmen.

But the current era is that Japan's economic bubble has burst, and the overall economy is getting worse day by day. The Japanese government is determined to use the gangs as a target to divert internal social conflicts.

In recent years, the "Violent Group Law", "Organized Crime Countermeasures Law" and "Anti-Money Laundering Law" have been introduced one after another. The "Violent Group Law" will be implemented next year or the year after. That will be the last glorious moment for the Japanese underworld.

This kind of nationwide operation will inevitably occupy a large number of police forces. In order to supplement the local police force, the state is also robbing Peter to pay Paul, and sending people wherever there is a shortage of people.

No matter if they are graduates from Tokyo or Hokkaido, they are all low-level patrolmen. There is no need to talk about yours and mine at this time. As long as they can get the job, they are good public servants of everyone.

After filling in the application form, some students were happy while others were sad. But no matter what, they all graduated successfully and are about to enter a new chapter in their lives - except for Yoshimura Yu, who did not plan to postpone his graduation and applied for withdrawal last night.

After returning to the dormitory, the first thing Gen Tamako did was to hug the Rabbit Officer and report to Kawai that she had successfully passed the graduation exam with a good score of second place, and that she would work in the same section as Fushimi Kakao in the future.

"Not bad, not bad, you did a great job, Yuzi-chan!" She pulled the plush toy of the rabbit police officer, patted her shoulder gently with it, and said softly, "I knew you could do it."

……

The next morning, the graduates of Class A gathered in the auditorium for their graduation ceremony.

The curtain slowly opened, revealing a wooden-framed banner on the police badge with black letters on a white background that read "93rd Graduation Ceremony of the Beginner's Short-Term Course." The principal and the director sat on the stage, with sunflowers and daisies on both sides.

The counselor called out the names one by one. The students whose names were called went up to the stage, received their graduation certificates from the principal, and shook hands with the head instructor to say goodbye.

Yuan Yuzi sat in the audience with her back straight, wearing a dark blue uniform, a police badge on her chest, and a glittering gold medal chain. Recalling the promise she made to her friend, her tears gradually blurred her vision.

"Yuan Yuzi!" the counselor on the stage called out her name.

"Yes!"

Yuan Yuzi stood up, walked onto the stage, and saluted the principal. The principal smiled and handed her a piece of white paper with both hands. This was her graduation certificate, which had the date of graduation, the principal's signature, and the name of police officer Yuan Yuzi printed on it.

"Congratulations."

"Thank you very much!" Yuan Yuzi took it with both hands.

She walked towards Instructor Shirata and shook his hand. According to custom, Instructor Shirata would say something to the students before leaving.

But when he saw Yuan Yuzi's tearful face, he couldn't help laughing for a moment and said softly: "Why are you crying? You are already a formal police officer, so don't cry easily in the future."

"Yes! I will listen to your teachings!" Yuan Yuzi wiped away her tears, raised her hand to salute, and strode off the stage.

When it was Fushimi Shika's turn to go on stage, Instructor Shirata shook hands with him. He was silent for a moment. After thinking about Fushimi Shika's message, he could only come up with three words:

"Don't die."

"Yes."
