Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 183, Metropolitan Police Department’s united front!

PS: Sorry, I went on a blind date again today. In order to update, I declined the opportunity to watch a movie with him. I hurried back and finally caught up. There is only one update today, please forgive me.

Around one o'clock in the afternoon, the extremely tired Asuka fell asleep in the arms of Uesugi Sosetsu. The girl rested her head quietly on Uesugi Sosetsu, curled up her tender body, and looked a little tired and contented in her sleep, which was quite different from her usual image of a good housekeeper at home and her image of a dark and sharp-tongued woman when Ikeda came to their house.

The continuous huge pressure and blows almost made Asuka collapse, especially when facing the Uesugi couple, people whom she had no ability to resist. The only thing Asuka could do was cry. She didn't want to leave Uesugi Sosetsu, but she was also unable to refuse. It was not until Uesugi Sosetsu personally stood between them and pushed his parents back with his hard head that the girl finally got a glimmer of hope. She couldn't help her emotions and burst into tears.

After great joy and great sorrow, sleepiness comes over you.

Seeing that the girl fell asleep, Uesugi Sosetsu gazed at the girl's tearful face with a gentle expression. He did not disturb her, but gently stroked her little face, wiped away her tears, and thought about what to do next.

Although he is a time traveler, he only awakened his memories of his past life when he was in his second year of high school, not when he traveled through time. So deep down in his heart, he recognizes his identity as "Uesugi Sosetsu", but he felt awkward when he first woke up. Later, he gradually accepted this situation and regarded Uesugi Hiroki and Uesugi Tomoko as his biological parents, and his grandfather was also his biological grandfather.

He really stood up to his parents and he felt bad about it.

Normally, under the Confucian culture of filial piety and patriarchal authority system in the three East Asian countries, fathers emphasize strong control and personal dependence on their children. Therefore, it can be said that in such an environment, there is 30% hatred and 70% resentment between fathers and sons. Even fathers and sons who have a very good relationship will have some thorns in their hearts when they get along with each other. Moreover, even if they want to express their feelings, the goodwill between fathers and sons is always expressed in a very restrained manner unless they are separated by life and death.

But Uesugi Muneyuki is different. He is the second son in the family. Since he was young, his family’s requirements for him have been completely different from those for his older brother. He receives less love and attention, but he also has fewer responsibilities.

For Uesugi Sadanori, the family's requirements have always been "you must do this and that."

To Uesugi Sosetsu, his family's requirement has always been "You better do this and that."

So if you think about it carefully, Uesugi Hironori didn't do much to let Uesugi Sosetsu down during his growth, and he was not as harsh and strict as he was to his brother. There were no major conflicts between father and son, and the father almost always followed Uesugi Sosetsu's wishes.

It was not until the incident with Saito Asuka that Uesugi Sosetsu confronted his father.

I still have to find time to apologize to my father later. He really did it for my own good. He just didn't know that Asuka is too fragile now to withstand another separation. If you take her away from me, she will be destroyed.

Uesugi Sosetsu closed his eyes.

However, after this incident, Uesugi Sosetsu also understood his current strength.

To be frank, did Uesugi Sosetsu really win the argument today?
Win a shit!
Uesugi Hironori was presenting facts and reasoning, citing legal examples, while Uesugi Munesetsu was talking about some vague "righteousness". Strictly speaking, although Uesugi Munesetsu was very strong and stood for "righteousness", he did not have the ability and arguments to completely convince his father. For example, he was unable to refute the risks of living with minors.

But he still won.

Because his status was no longer the same as before, he heard the conversation between his parents in the room.

Just as my grandfather repeatedly emphasized, my father didn't have much ability. As long as my grandfather died, the Uesugi family would be rapidly marginalized in upper society. Like a large number of Chinese people, many of them became ordinary workers, and many even sold their surnames to wealthy trading companies that emerged after the war. The entire family was usurped.

Currently, among the former feudal lords and the shogun's clans, only the major Tokugawa, Satsuma Shimazu and Kanazawa Maeda families are still at the top of the upper class. Among them, the situation of the Kanazawa Maeda family is the same as that of the Uesugi family. They rely on the current head of the family, who is the Director-General of the Imperial Household Agency, to support the family. None of the younger generations can take over the influence and connections of their ancestors.

But at present, Uesugi Munen has already demonstrated that he has the ability to take over his grandfather's Tokyo University influence and various relationships, and he doesn't even need it, because he performed the autopsy himself and conquered the entire Metropolitan Police Department by himself!

Sure enough, the only one who is truly powerful and whom you can truly rely on is yourself!

At the same time, at the entrance of Sakata Bridge Tower.

"How is it? The Spanish food here is good, right?" Watanabe Minami also changed into her casual Korean campus-style suit and pleated skirt, and chatted with Ikeda Erena, who was wearing a women's suit and trousers for field work.

The signing of the "Asukayama Contract" symbolized that Ikeda Erena officially became a vassal of Watanabe Minami, and no longer had the strength to challenge Miss Minami. However, Miss Minami also allowed her to continue to maintain a relationship with Uesugi Sosetsu, so it can be said that there are gains and losses.

"It's okay." Erina said softly. She was still immersed in the huge failure of today. Her eyes were dull. Only when she talked about food did her expression look better.

“Huff, huff, huff~ You’ll enjoy it often in the future, Ikeda, don’t worry, just follow me and you’ll have nine meals in three days!” Miss Minami proudly put her hands on her hips.

Total victory!

"But I usually eat nine meals in three days!" Ikeda Erina looked confused: "I usually have fitness meals in the morning and evening, and the Metropolitan Police Department cafeteria is normal for lunch..."

"…………I suddenly feel that it must be very hard for Sou Xue-kun to get along with you." Miss Minami was speechless: "Fortunately, he is a very talented person."

"No, he likes me very much!" Erina said this with full confidence. She could feel Uesugi Souji's fascination with her, and she could also feel the satisfaction that Uesugi Souji got from her.

Her apartment was customized by Uesugi Sosetsu.

"He likes you very much, so why didn't he give you the key to his house?" Miss Minami smiled and took out the key to Sakata Bashi's house.

"Woo!" Ikeda Erena was instantly knocked down. The tall beauty looked at the key dangling in the hands of the Metropolitan Police Department's Yan, fell down on the spot, unable to get up again.

Woo~ Why doesn’t Uesugi want to give me the key?

Obviously I was here first! I was here first, I was here first, I was here first, I was here first, I was here first, I was here first, I was here first, I was here first, I was here first!
For the first time, I found someone I liked and I made progress in my career. These two elements combined should have meant double the happiness, but why did it turn out like this?
Ah, it was my own request that we not have a formal relationship, so it’s okay then.

Erina felt hopeless.

Soon, the two arrived at the door of 1802. Miss Minami couldn't help but look forward to it. This was her first time to visit Uesugi Sosetsu's house!
This is my territory from now on!
After turning the door lock, Miss Minami shouted happily, "I'm back", her slender eyebrows trembling. She quickly kicked off the black high-heeled shoes that adorned her delicate jade feet, revealing a pair of beautiful feet wrapped in translucent black velvet pantyhose, and walked directly into the room.

Behind her, Erina sighed, hooked her fingers on the heels of her high heels to take off her shoes, then took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet and put them on her feet in flesh-colored pantyhose. She was much more familiar with this house than Minami.

However, when the two girls walked in together, they were greeted by an extremely strange atmosphere in the house, and Uesugi Sosetsu, who was sitting on the sofa with Asuka in his arms, welcomed them: "Welcome home." "Huh?!" Miss Minami and the tall beauty were stunned.

what's the situation?
"Mr. Zong Xue, why are you at home? Shouldn't you be writing a report in this office?" Miss Minami looked strange and a little guilty.

Uesugi Sosetsu didn't know about the battle of Asukayama, and Minami didn't want him to know. She knew Uesugi Sosetsu, and if Uesugi Sosetsu knew that she used threats and inducements to force Erina to surrender, he would definitely lose his favor for her.

"This is a long story." Uesugi Sosetsu smiled bitterly.

"Then let's make it short!" Miss Minami said domineeringly, "There are no outsiders in the house. Is there anything you don't trust about Erina and me?"

"Indeed." Uesugi Sosetsu thought about it and felt that there seemed to be no need to hide anything.

So Uesugi Sosetsu told Minami Erina what happened today, right on the sofa in the living room.

"Ah? How did your parents know that Asuka lives here?" Erina was the first to panic: "Isn't the tower very private? Everyone entering and leaving needs to be approved. Did someone tell on us?"

Uesugi Sosetsu said helplessly: "What do you mean by snitching? My parents are the owners!"

"Oh, yes." Erina finally reacted, and then she suddenly realized that didn't it mean that the fact that she often spent the night here was also known by Uesugi Sosetsu's parents?

What a shame!
Would his parents have a very bad impression? Would they think I was a troublemaker like Asuka? Would they want to keep me away from Uesugi-kun?

In order to stay here, I have already surrendered to the department head, but if his parents don't agree... I can't do this!

Minami was obviously much calmer than Erina. She lifted up one of her beautiful legs in black silk stockings under her pleated skirt, crossed her arms over her chest, thought for a moment, and then said softly to Uesugi Sosetsu, "Although you won, I will go back with you to the next family dinner and apologize to your uncle and aunt together. I will explain Asuka's problem to them."

"Yeah." Uesugi Sosetsu was a little embarrassed. Miss Minami's willingness to help him in this matter was a very important help, because his parents would come to his house today, and a very important reason was that he was preparing for his engagement.

"Also, Asuka, what on earth are you thinking?" Miss Minami said to the girl in Uesugi Sosetsu's arms, "Don't pretend to be asleep. I know you are awake. If you were still sleeping before, you must have woken up after we came in, right?"

The girl in his arms trembled slightly, and Uesugi Sosetsu was surprised to see Asuka raised her head and gently responded to Miss Minami, and she wanted to kneel on her knees very humbly: "I, I..."

"I know you don't want to leave Soxue-kun." Miss Minami, let's not be so hypocritical and talk nicely: "But Uncle Uesugi is right. If an underage girl and an adult live together, it will be too explosive if it is exposed. We must find a way to solve this problem."

"Yes, I've been thinking about this too." Uesugi Munatsu said to Miss Minami, "The argument with my father has made me very upset, and I'm not clear about the relevant laws and regulations. Minami, what do you think we should do?"

"Asuka has no family left. In this case, we should find a suitable adopter for her. According to Japanese law, orphaned children under the age of 12 should be taken in by social welfare institutions and sent to a designated new family for adoption and care. Welfare institutions will regularly visit them. For children over the age of 12, they can designate their own adopters. As long as both parties agree, an adoption agreement can be signed." Miss Minami thought about it, and then asked, "Asuka, how old are you this year?"

"16 years old." The chosen girl sat timidly next to Uesugi Sosetsu and said softly.

"Then she is only two years away from the legal age." Miss Minami thought, "If Asuka is willing to cooperate, we just need to find a suitable adoptive parent for her. As long as there is a guardian, Asuka can legally and reasonably stay with Souyuki-kun."

"Are you going to let Uesugi-kun adopt her?" Erina said hastily, "Wouldn't that mean..."

"How is that possible? You must be joking!" Miss Minami really laughs when she finds people speechless. "Let's not talk about how Soujitsu-kun will become Asuka's 'father' and how they will get along in the future. The adoption alone must be publicized! A 23-year-old adult male adopts a 16-year-old orphan. By then, Soujitsu-kun will sweep all newspapers, television stations and online media! How can he still stay in the Metropolitan Police Department?"

"Ah, this?" Erina thought, should I or you adopt him?

But she realized that this didn't seem right, and saying it out loud would definitely make everyone laugh, so she just shut up.

"Asuka, let me ask you, are you really willing to spend your whole life with Sou Xue-kun? Can you safely entrust your life to the two of us?" Miss Minami said seriously.

"Yes!!!" Asuka nodded heavily without any hesitation this time. The girl who was very good at reading the air had already sensed that this petite and beautiful woman with the full aura of the "daimyo's wife" was really trying to find a way for her.

With this aura, this demeanor, and this wisdom, she must be Mr. Uesugi's fiancée!
"Well, then, Asuka, you should stay at home as much as possible and don't go out in the next few months." Miss Minami nodded seriously. "Uesugi-kun and I will try to find you an adoptive father who is trustworthy and will never betray you. When the time comes, you will agree to the adoption agreement, and the guardian will let you live here in the form of a foster care contract. You can also work when you turn 16. Then we will sign a live-in housekeeper agreement, and it will be flawless! Asuka, this way you can always live in Souyuki-kun's house and you won't be kicked out again. As for Souyuki-kun's parents, I will be responsible for convincing them."

"I, I understand! Thank you, this gentleman..." Asuka responded happily and was about to kneel down again.

"My name is Watanabe Minami, you can just call me Sister Minami."

"Yes, Minami-san, I'm so grateful and have no way to repay you. Please allow me to..." Asuka did a standard kneeling and started crying with joy again.

"No, Asuka, I didn't allow you to live in Sosetsu's house for free! I told you before that you have to be prepared to entrust the rest of your life to me!" Miss Minami smiled and motioned for Erena and Asuka to come over in front of Uesugi Sosetsu: "From now on, Asuka will be in charge of the house, Erena will be in charge of field trips, and I will be in charge of the office and ceremonial venues. The three of us will each do our job and take care of each other to ensure that Sosetsu stays away from his previous unclean private life and unclean women! How do you think?"

"Zong Xuejun, I can give you some, but in return, you have to give me your life. How about that?"

When Asuka and Erena heard Minami say this, their eyes lit up!
"Okay, I agree." "Please give me your guidance, Sister Minami~"

"Very good, then starting today, our Metropolitan Police Department's united front is established!"

"Oh oh oh!"

The three girls cheered together, and even Asuka couldn't help but humming at the thought that they would monopolize the rest of Uesugi Sosetsu's life.

The future is bright!
