Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 126, Are you willing to let me take care of you? (The third update!)
Tokyo, mid-December, funeral scene.

The staff at the funeral home were shocked by the scene: so many important people came to the funeral of a female college student!

All the professors and department heads of all disciplines of Tokyo Medical and Dental University, including Dean Ukai of the Faculty of Medicine of the Affiliated Hospital, were present, and there were more than one hundred doctors with mid- to senior-level medical professional titles.

More than 100 police officers from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, from Criminal Chief Mori Takayoshi to Inspector and above, came. The Publicity Division Chief Togasaki Tomonobu even brought the entire Publicity Division band to perform live.

Wearing half black suit and half navy blue police uniform, the scene was very grand and even the large flag with the cherry blossom emblem of the Metropolitan Police Department was brought down.

"I can swear that this is the greatest honor of Ms. Saito's life."

Miss Minami, who was wearing a standard winter Metropolitan Police Department office dress, looked at many white-haired heads bowing to the black car and said to Uesugi Sosetsu meaningfully, "If you put aside your identity as a noble, if it was you who died, would all the hospital staff be present?"

"This is an inappropriate joke." Uesugi Sosetsu wore a heavy black suit with a black vest, a white shirt and a black tie. His whole appearance was in stark black and white, coupled with his cold and sharp temperament, he would be the most conspicuous one even if he was not standing in the first row. When he heard what Miss Minami said, he glared at her.

“Hmm~” Miss Minami was unhappy. She secretly glanced at Ikeda Erena, who was standing next to Uesugi Sosetsu, with only the figure of a man in her eyes and looking at Uesugi Sosetsu with an obsessed look: “Are you satisfied with my arrangement?”

"Very satisfied." Erina answered quickly. Her face was always covered with a layer of moving and brilliant halo, and her eyes were so soft that they could be drawn.

Is this man so great?

Miss Minami raised her eyebrows and secretly rejoiced, thinking that she had finally tested it out.

If I hadn't warned the hospital, would you two have thought that if you closed the ward door, no one outside would know what happened?
However, even though it was obvious that the two had had a relationship, Miss Minami didn't really care. To her, Uesugi Sosetsu was certainly the savior of the Metropolitan Police Department, the god of KPI, and the king of solving cases by autopsies, but there were two troublesome things about him.

First of all, Uesugi Sosetsu has a very direct and explosive personality, so Miss Minami acts as a barrier between him and the Metropolitan Police Department to ensure that there will be no direct conflict between the two sides.

Secondly, Uesugi Sosetsu has complicated social relationships and a rather chaotic private life. The arrangement for this is to let Ikeda Erena serve as a barrier, which not only meets Uesugi Sosetsu's needs but also isolates Uesugi Sosetsu from contact with women from the outside world.

The grand funeral ceremony continued. Since all the expenses were borne by the Tokyo Medical and Dental University, the entire farewell ceremony was very grand. Large groups of men and women in suits gathered together and took turns to come forward to pay their respects and commemorate. At first glance, one would have thought that some important figure had passed away.

"Let's go." Uesugi Sosetsu glanced from afar at the high school girl who was standing in front of the memorial tablet with red eyes but unable to shed a single tear. He sighed and gestured, "Who wants to go with me?"
"Let me do it." Miss Minami was the first to do this.

So the two of them moved forward together.

On the way, Uesugi Sosetsu was still thinking quickly.

Thanks to Erina's efforts and the full reimbursement from the Tokyo Medical and Dental University, Uesugi Sosetsu stayed in the VIP ward for about ten days before being released. Erina's presence left him with almost no time to think except for writing papers and preparing for exams.

Reina arrives at the hospital at seven o'clock every morning. After the two of them have breakfast together, they will stay together for a while. Then in the morning, while Sosetsu Uesugi reviews, she stays in the ward to do some weight training and boxing. After lunch together, she will stay together for a while again. In the afternoon, when Sosetsu Uesugi writes his graduation thesis, she will stay with him. The same in the evening... Reina usually stays until the last bus is about to arrive before she is willing to leave, and sometimes she doesn't even leave.

After these ten days, Uesugi Sosetsu was sure that any ordinary man would have been sucked dry by Erina.

In other words, only because he had the dual blessings of Aiganmyuwang and Vajra Yaksha could he defeat this "black hole master".

But this also made Uesugi Sosetsu lose his sense of news from the outside world.

Until two days ago, when Tanaka Ryouto found Uesugi Sosetsu (Erina was very unhappy that their world of two was disturbed and looked at him with murderous eyes) and said that the funeral ceremony was ready, Uesugi Sosetsu felt it was time to be discharged from the hospital.

Unexpectedly, Saito has a younger sister.

Uesugi Sosetsu looked at the little flower with red and swollen eyes swaying in the cold wind in front of the memorial tablet, and he couldn't tell what he felt in his heart.

It’s strange, Nanami never told me this!

Oh, yes.

I have never told Nanami anything about me, why would she tell me about hers?

"What should we do with that child?" Uesugi Sosetsu asked Miss Minami in a low voice.

"That child is a bit difficult to deal with." Miss Minami still has some conscience. Although she doesn't know where the child is, he should still exist in this world. She said with a sigh: "You should know the system of your country, right?"

"Yeah." Uesugi Sosetsu said nothing more: "Does she have other relatives?"

"At least according to the Metropolitan Police Department's investigation, there is no more." Miss Minami also sighed: "We still don't understand what happened that day. Do you have any clues?"

"it's all my fault."

Uesugi Sosetsu clenched his fists.

He didn't plan to tell anyone about the other world, but at least he should do something about it now.

Uesugi Sosetsu walked up to the spirit tablet and lit a stick of incense together with Miss Minami. Then, according to custom, mourners only needed to say "my condolences" to Saito Asuka, and the ceremony was completed, and they could leave.

Asuka Saito just stood there blankly, without any reaction to the outside world. Her expression was wooden, and her beautiful eyes were dead. In the grand scene around her, none of the people from the Tokyo Medical and Dental University of the Metropolitan Police Department who came to mourn had any connection with her. She also didn't recognize the representative sent by Musashino University. The world in her eyes was dead, in black and white.

Until another man in a suit came to her.

"Hello, Ms. Saito Asuka, please accept my condolences."

"........."

"Excuse me, can I have a word with you?"

"........."

The girl on the other side didn't react at all.

Uesugi Sosetsu thought it was normal, as she felt unfamiliar with everything here.

"Ms. Asuka, has Nanami never mentioned me to you?" Uesugi Sosetsu continued, "Do you know who I am?"

"......!!" The girl was still in a daze, but when Uesugi Sosetsu said the second half of the sentence, she suddenly raised her head and stared at the man in front of her with incredible eyes!
He has a stern appearance, a slim-fit suit that is very neat and clean, and sharp black pupils, but there is a natural and unique nobility in his every move.

"You..." The girl finally spoke. She opened her mouth and found that she could only make a very hoarse sound: "Who are you?"

"You should know who I am, right?" Uesugi Sosetsu looked serious and nodded slightly. Thinking of everything the girl had experienced in these days, even he, who had always been indifferent to the world, felt sorry for it, not to mention that it was related to himself.

"Yeah, I know, I know..." The girl's eyes, which had already been swollen from crying, finally had a glimmer of light: "Yes, I did say... that is..."

It's really him!

Although they had never met or described him, the girl relied on some instinct and innate intuition to understand immediately that the tall, handsome young man in a suit in front of her must be "that person" her sister was talking about!
He is coming! He is really coming!
Saito Asuka instinctively wanted to recognize him, but some things were too embarrassing to say, such as the relationship between the two parties, and the fact that her sister repeatedly accepted large gifts and packed high-quality food from this man.

"I'm glad you recognized me, Asuka. You don't mind me calling you that, do you?" Uesugi Sosetsu nodded, his expression much gentler: "I'm sorry for encountering this kind of thing. I can tell you that it's all my fault."

"…………" Saito Asuka's expression changed. There was a mixture of hatred and fear on her face. She stared at Uesugi Sosetsu's face.

Yes, if it wasn't for him...if it wasn't for him...

But, if it wasn't him...if it wasn't him...

The girl's heart was torn between her conscience and her desires, and she was in great confusion. The man in front of her seemed like a messenger from the sky one moment, and a devil from hell the next. He seemed friendly one moment, and hideous the next.

Finally, she calmed down and turned her head: "Anyway, thank you for coming today, um..."

She had no reason to hate him. They had already received so much from him. She had eaten at least thirty meals of delicious food that he had packed. Apart from her school uniform, her pantyhose, shoes, scarf, shampoo and shower gel were all from him. She didn't even know his name!
"My name is Uesugi, Uesugi Sosetsu." The man said softly.

"Thank you, Mr. Uesugi." Saito Asuka bowed slightly.

"Very good." Uesugi Sosetsu nodded, and then said very seriously: "Well, next I want to ask you a very serious question, Miss Saito Asuka."

"Excuse me, are you willing to live with me in the future?"

As soon as Uesugi Sosetsu said this, Miss Minami beside him suddenly raised her head with a shocked expression on her face.

What? ? ?
Similarly, the girl was also stunned when she heard Uesugi Sosetsu's words: "Huh?"

"Then let me repeat it, Ms. Saito Asuka, as a friend of your sister Saito Nanami and an indirect person who caused her death, would you be willing to give me a chance to take care of you and live with me in the future?" Uesugi Muneyuki repeated it very seriously.

"I..." The girl chosen by God opened her eyes and mouth wide, her eyes instantly moistened.

Looking at the scene, it was packed with guests but there was no one she knew. Then she looked at "that person" in front of her. He was the only trace of color she could feel in this black and white world.

"Wow!" The girl finally couldn't help crying: "Wow, why did you come just now, wow, wow~"

"I do, I really do, you are all I have, you are all I have, wahhhhhh~"
