Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 121: A Gift from the Metropolitan Police Department

PS: I wish you all a happy New Year's Eve! Today, I will only update once because I am busy with the New Year. I believe you can understand, right?

PS2: The update plan for the New Year is to take a break on the first and second days of the New Year, and resume updating on the third day. It’s okay if some readers haven’t seen it. I will post a separate chapter later to explain and answer questions about the recent plot. That’s all.

…………

The tall beauty Ikeda Erina, who was peeling an apple intently, was stunned when she heard Miss Minami's plan.

Since receiving the news yesterday, Erina, like Miss Minami, did not sleep well all night.

But unlike Miss Minami, Erina is now full of energy.

The reason was actually very simple - after the brief reunion last time, Erina soon received a piece of news that was like a bolt from the blue.

Because he had to write his graduation thesis and prepare for the medical specialty examination, Uesugi Sosetsu had to temporarily put aside his tasks at the Metropolitan Police Department and Otsuka Police Station and instead focus all his attention on the hospital.

Uesugi Sosetsu is now free, but Erina is in a miserable situation!
She still has to go to work!

Even if there are no cases or autopsies, when Erina needs to go to work, she can just report and find an excuse to come to Tokyo Medical and Dental University to find Uesugi Sosetsu. If there is an autopsy, then the bond will be even deeper.

Now, she didn't even have an excuse to come to see Uesugi Muneyuki! Especially since the Criminal Division said that Uesugi Muneyuki had to write a paper and prepare for the exam, so we shouldn't bother him.

Little did people know that for Erina, Uesugi Sosetsu and her work are her everything in life, and the two are deeply intertwined.

Although she can still see him on weekends and the two of them will go out together for half a day, this is far from enough for Erina and cannot satisfy her needs at all. Only seeing him half a day a week! She will go crazy!
What she wants is...

Now, even though Uesugi Sosetsu was injured and a dangerous accident had occurred, Erina actually found that after she confirmed that Uesugi Sosetsu was okay, in addition to worry and nervousness, she was actually filled with joy, because this gave her a legitimate reason to stay and she could be with him again.

I want more, more from him.

Reina did not participate in the duel between Miss Minami and Uesugi Sosetsu. She was waiting for Watanabe Minami to leave. Once she left, Uesugi would belong to her alone!
At this moment, the conversation between Uesugi Sosetsu and Watanabe Minami came over.

"That depends on how you apologize." Uesugi Sosetsu smiled slightly: "How to apologize? Miss Minami doesn't need me to teach you, right?"

“Hmph~ I’ve thought of it a long time ago. Ikeda, I’ll give it to you!” Miss Minami waved her hand.

"Huh?!" Ikeda Erena was stunned, her refreshing and clean short hair and deep and beautiful facial features looked a little dull.

Leave it to her, yes, what does that mean?
"Ikeda, do you know that Uesugi gave up the opportunity to complain to Kashiwagi Ren in order to allow you to be seconded to this office?" Miss Minami turned around and said softly, "Uesugi also tolerated such a humiliating thing as being handcuffed for you."

"To tell you the truth, once Uesugi graduates and passes the medical specialty qualification exam, this department plans to set up a new criminal justice department around him. We have already discussed everything very well, but there is a problem that has been difficult to deal with."

Miss Minami pointed at Ikeda Ereina and said, "He wants you."

Erina stared blankly at Uesugi Sosetsu and Watanabe Minami.

Want...me?

"Well, he specifically asked you to be transferred to the new department as well. But, it's already very difficult to transfer from a local branch to the main office, not to mention you have a terrible reputation. Ikeda, you should be well aware of your situation in the main office, right?"

"But, Uesugi specifically asked for you, which makes it very difficult for this office." Miss Minami pointed her finger, pretending to be in a dilemma, and then used her right fist to hit the palm of her left hand from top to bottom: "But this time, it will be easy!"

"You are good at martial arts, and Uesugi-kun needs someone to guarantee your safety. If the criminal department decides not to complain and transfers you here, they will definitely agree. In this case, both the reason and the conditions are in place. Congratulations, Ikeda, you will be seconded to this department in the future!" Miss Minami said sweetly, and then she performed a congratulatory gesture seriously: "We will be colleagues in the future!"

At this time, Ikeda Erena was already dizzy from the huge gift package that fell from the sky.

Uesugi specifically asked for me?

Will I be seconded to the Metropolitan Police Department?

"Is this true, Inspector Watanabe?" Erina has stood up, feeling nervous and expectant, her eyes full of light as she stares at Uesugi Sosetsu lying on the hospital bed.

"Yes, it's true." Facing Uesugi Sosetsu's helpless eyes, Miss Minami smiled wickedly.

It’s okay, you play the good guy and I’ll be the bad guy!

With me, you only need to perform an autopsy and solve the case. I will arrange everything else for you. Don't you just want Ikeda? I will help you!

"Thank you so much!" Erina was so excited that she bowed 90 degrees to Minami.

“But…” Miss Minami’s words instantly made the tall beauty nervous again: “But what?”

"However, it seems that Uesugi-kun hasn't accepted the Metropolitan Police Department's apology yet. If he doesn't accept the apology, then it will be very difficult to deal with it next! The secondment may also change." Miss Minami stepped forward to accept Erina's bow, and said naturally: "Then Ikeda, do you want to help this department and let Uesugi-kun accept the apology of this department?"

"I..." Erina suddenly found herself forced into a desperate situation. She didn't understand why she had become like this, but she felt that what Minami said was right. She couldn't always have the advantage. She had to do something, right?

So the silly tall beauty immediately came to the bed, intending to bow to Uesugi Souji and apologize, and ask for his forgiveness for something that had nothing to do with her.

Uesugi Muneyuki has already seen Miss Minami unable to hold back her laughter, so he quickly raised his hand to signal that it was okay: "Alright, alright, I accept the apology from the Metropolitan Police Department...Minami, you are such a..."

“Hahahaha~” Watanabe Minami finally came to her senses and covered her mouth with her hands and laughed.

"Very good, Ikeda, let's put it this way. I will say hello to the Otsuka Police Station during this period of time. Before Uesugi-kun finishes his graduation exams, you don't have to go to work at the Otsuka Police Station. You can just be his bodyguard and personal assistant." Miss Minami continued to throw out the second bait.

"Huh? Is it really possible?!" Erina took the bait almost without thinking.

"Well, of course, but... come with me first." Miss Minami gestured to Erina to come out with her first.

In this way, Erina was led out of the ward by Miss Minami, leaving Uesugi Sosetsu completely speechless.

Master Erina might have been tricked by Miss Minami into being sold out, and he had to count the money for her.

But Uesugi Sosetsu couldn't blame Erena for being too stupid. Although she was stupid, she was always very alert to the things around her and would never be fooled. It was only because she was involved that she was played around by Miss Minami. Outside the door, Miss Minami pulled Erena Ikeda and said, "Besides that, there is another problem."

"Inspector Watanabe, please go ahead." After this conversation, Erena has developed a good impression of Minami. After all, she gives her whatever she wants, and it is hard for Erena not to feel grateful to Miss Minami.

"Ikeda, you should also know that Uesugi is a rare talent, right?" Miss Minami said earnestly.

"I understand. I have always believed in Uesugi." The tall beauty said this seriously and sincerely. She felt that she was a witness to Uesugi Sosetsu's journey.

"Yes, Uesugi-kun is a national talent. We will definitely use him in the future." Miss Minami crossed her arms. She didn't really like standing in front of Ikeda Erena, who was more than ten centimeters taller than her. Even in high heels, she had to look up at him. "But you also know about Uesugi-kun's private life. Although it is illegal for Kashiwagi to check his information...but the registration of so many hotels in Bunkyo Ward is not fake."

"I think we have an obligation to keep Uesugi-kun away from this chaotic private life, don't you think?"

Sure enough, when Ikeda Erena thought about this incident, she felt that Uesugi Sosetsu had gone a bit too far, especially when it came to Saito. Erena got angry when she heard him say, "It's just what you imagined" and "Let's eat together and get a room together."

Everything was perfect on that romantic rainy night, but the phone call made it flawed.

"You're right, Inspector Watanabe, I will keep an eye on him. After all, I am his master!" Erina said firmly.

The women out there are very dirty! Uesugi should really stay away from them!

“That’s not what I meant.” Miss Minami finally revealed her true intentions: “What I meant was that he will be handed over to you from now on.”

"Huh?" Although she was slow to react to other things, Erina instantly understood what Miss Minami meant by this. The tall beauty's face immediately turned red, and her delicate body under the winter police uniform turned red from the neck to the forehead. Then, as if she was offended, she was furious: "Ms. Watanabe! Please respect yourself! I solemnly warn you, don't say such things!"

I thought you were a good person! But you actually said something like this!
I'm the Chief of the Criminal Division of Otsuka Police Station! I'm not some bubble bath girl in a Kabukicho entertainment shop!

Who do you take me for?!

"Really?" Watanabe Minami kept a calm face, but facing the furious gaze of Ikeda, she actually felt a little guilty.

Cough, cough, why are you feeling guilty?
I was the first one to come here! If it weren't for me, would you have been transferred to Otsuka Police Station? Would you have been able to meet Uesugi?

"In that case, we should just transfer them from somewhere else." Miss Minami shrugged and said easily, "Someone has to take care of Uesugi-kun's needs. If you don't want to, there are plenty of people who are willing, you know? Ikeda, let's not talk about other places. There are at least 30 female police officers in the General Affairs Department's Public Relations Section who want to transfer to work with Uesugi. Among them, there are many women with good looks, big breasts and long legs that Uesugi likes. If you don't agree, I'll find someone else."

"You? You don't keep your word?" Ikeda Erena now understood what Watanabe Minami was planning. She immediately held her head high, gritted her teeth, and her clenched fists were shaking: "Then find someone else! I won't give in!"

"Then it's settled. Oh, and by the way, Chief Inspector Ikeda of the Otsuka Police Station, it's almost time for you to go back to work."

Watanabe Minami said as she was about to leave: "I have something important to discuss with Uesugi-kun. The elevator door is over there. I won't see you off~"

Everything she had gained was lost in an instant, and Ikeda Erena felt as if a steel nail was piercing her chest. Even though the pain and despair in her heart were constantly intertwined, she was determined not to embarrass herself in front of Watanabe Minami.

snort!
Miss Minami didn't tolerate her either. She moved lightly with lotus steps, and the two of them crossed each other, as if everything was a foregone conclusion.

Just as the two girls passed each other, just as Minami was about to pass Erina.

The bottom of Minami's police jacket was pulled.

Erina finally lowered her head and grasped Minami's clothes with her fingertips.

Miss Minami showed a smug smile on her face. She turned around slowly and said, "Hmm? Patrol Chief Ikeda Erena, you haven't left yet?"

"I...I..." Erina was about to cry. She tried hard to speak, but she couldn't say anything.

Seeing Erina looking so aggrieved, Miss Minami took back all the teasing and boasting words she had prepared in her mind.

This is a good woman, just a little stupid.

Putting her next to Uesugi will make me feel at ease and she will not pose any threat to me.

Good woman~deserves to be rewarded!

"Okay, you know that's not what I meant. Uesugi has already nominated you, how can I object?" Miss Minami smiled brightly and patted Ikeda on the shoulder: "Everything I said before is valid. During this period of time, Uesugi's safety and life are completely in your hands."

"I'm doing this for your own good, don't you see?" Miss Minami gently pointed at the door of the ward with her cherry lips. "Going out and meeting some unclean women will definitely not lead to good things, but Uesugi-kun also has normal needs. So, Ms. Ikeda, this is also sacrificing yourself for the country. Your dedication will be remembered by the entire Metropolitan Police Department. With me here, you will definitely get some benefits. For example, aren't Uesugi and I working hard to get you transferred to this department?"

"Huh?" Erina was confused. She thought that what Inspector Watanabe said made some sense, but she always felt that something was wrong. And why was this linked to sacrificing for the country?

But it was true that she didn't want to see Uesugi Sosetsu get into trouble again.

"Ikeda, you saw how dangerous Uesugi-kun was this time. He almost lost his life and was forced into a self-incriminating trap. If he hadn't been prepared in advance and there were surveillance cameras in the hospital, this would have been a big problem!"

Miss Minami said sincerely, "So, you don't want Uesugi-kun to get into trouble, and I don't want Uesugi-kun to get into trouble either. We both like to see him fully display his talents to solve major cases. So, aren't we on the same side? So I'm doing this for your own good, for Uesugi-kun's good! Do you understand?"

"Yeah." Facing Watanabe Minami's sincere gaze, Erina had a complicated expression. She really didn't know whether this person was a good person or a bad person. The repeated reversals made her tired, but she could continue to stay with Uesugi anyway. The tall beauty breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, I, I will work hard!"

Erina was pulled so hard that her body was numb. The tall beauty was so aggrieved that she was about to cry, but for the sake of Uesugi Sosetsu and herself, it seemed that there was nothing she could do!

Ugh! Why did it become like this?
However, we can never give Uesugi to other policewomen...

Erina pouted and watched Miss Minami leave with a wronged look on her face.

Miss Minami put her hands behind her back, skipped a few steps, and looked very proud.

The unconscious collaboration between himself and Uesugi was slowly taming her.

She is the best gift that the Metropolitan Police Department has given to Uesugi!

Would you like my gift, Uesugi-kun?
wrong.

He must like it!
