Tokyo Unnatural Forensics

Chapter 369, Victory Celebration Night

That evening, at the Sakata Bridge Tower.

Mai Shirakawa and Minami Watanabe each occupied one side of the living room sofa, glaring at each other, while Muneyuki Uesugi sat awkwardly but tacitly in the middle.

"Who let you come here?" Sitting next to Miss Minami Odaido was her maid, Reina Odaido. Minami was all smiles and her eyelids were twitching. She abandoned her chin-resting and raised her legs, which were covered in thick black pantyhose, to join Reina Ikeda's long legs in her casual stockings, in confronting the suddenly appearing enemy: "Please don't interfere with my and Muneyuki's lives! Kora!"

"Huh? Ms. Watanabe?" Mai-senpai smiled charmingly, with a hint of amusement and scrutiny, clearly not acknowledging the status of this so-called Uesugi fiancée at all: "Let me make a bold guess, Ms. Watanabe, do you not know that it was I who forcibly suggested to Muneyuki that he not touch Asuka?"

"Huh???" As expected, Minami looked at Uesugi Muneyuki with a shocked expression. After receiving the man's confirmation, she said with lingering fear, "So it was you who asked for it? No wonder Muneyuki-kun..."

"So, Ms. Watanabe, shouldn't I be included in tonight's celebration party?" Mai's face showed pity upon hearing Minami's "shocking statement," but she immediately shook her head, reached out and grasped Uesugi Muneyuki's left hand, and said with a smile, "Junior is my other half and the person I'm closest to and love the most. The relationship between us isn't as simple as you think!"

"Really?" Watanabe Minami tilted her head, somewhat absentmindedly asking, "Then who has met the parents and the head of the family, and who is engaged to Muneyuki and received everyone's blessings and recognition? It doesn't seem to be some upperclassman, but rather the Special Missions Department administrator!"

Indeed, there is always a strange sense of affection, intimacy, and tacit understanding between Uesugi Muneyuki and Shirakawa Mai.

But the outcome of the Lakshir ritual is already decided; I am the High Lord!
"Hehe, in short, Ms. Watanabe, as the other half of my junior and the person he is closest to, trusts most, admires most, and loves most, I even paid for the money to hire Nishimura Asahi's office. Besides, I'm Asuka-chan's good older sister, and I also appeared in court as a witness. So, tonight, you should count me in, right?" Senior Mai said with bright eyes and white teeth, smiling charmingly. "Without my help and support, do you think Chief Prosecutor Nishikawa would have come in person?"

Nani? !
Minami Watanabe's expression changed slightly. She did feel that it was a bit unusual for the District Public Prosecutor to personally attend the Sakurada Gate press conference, but it was beyond the control of Minami or even Eiji Watanabe to decide whether a big shot of this caliber would come or not.

If anyone else had said this, Minami would definitely not have believed it at first glance, but Mai-senpai's statement is quite plausible! The Shinto religious forces in the Kanto region are deeply entrenched, each with a history of hundreds of years. Once someone can unite them, not to mention anything else, it would be no problem to elect a few members of parliament.

And Mai-senpai is the one who can unite the forces of Kanto Shintoism!
No wonder her father emphasized that he shouldn't offend her...

"Hmm... only for tonight! And don't do it again!" Miss Minami's attitude immediately changed, and she reluctantly agreed.

Huh? Ikeda Erena, who was next to Minami, was shocked. In the world that the tall beauty used to live in, the superintendent level was already considered a high-ranking official. If it weren't for her experience in the Metropolitan Police Department over the past few months, where she met a lot of superintendents and inspectors and even had occasional interactions with Superintendent General Watanabe Eiji, Erena's previous concept of these people was that of "celestial beings".

Now they've encountered a high-level celestial being whom even Minami wouldn't dare to provoke?
And, that's not all.

Mai-senpai always gave Erena a strange feeling. Mai herself was stunningly beautiful and had a special ethereal aura, but she always gave Erena a very dangerous feeling. She felt the danger for no reason, as if she would be taken down in one fell swoop if Mai made a move.

But... how could that be? Erena instinctively refuted her own thoughts; she was a black belt in judo and karate!

The tall beauty stood firmly on the same side as Minami, one soft and one hard, one big and one small, an unbreakable alliance!
Mai withdrew her hand, chuckled, and smoothed her long, black hair. She said with a light laugh, "Don't be so hostile towards me. I've brought you a lot of enjoyment. For example, I taught Zong Xue his massage techniques. You can ask him if you don't believe me."

“Yes, that’s right. My Ayurvedic oil massage technique was taught to me by Mai-senpai.” Uesugi Muneyuki nodded with a smile.

Upon hearing about Ayurvedic oil massage, Minami didn't react much, but Ikeda Erena next to her almost instinctively squeezed her legs together, her face turned red, and her eyes glazed over and trembled uncontrollably.

She couldn't even handle Zong Xue's massage...

"That essential oil from last time?" Minami's expression remained unchanged, but she glanced at Ikeda Erena with a slightly strange look.

Uesugi Muneyuki gave it to her during the last New Year, but she hadn't tried it yet because she was busy; only Erena had tried it once.

"Really? You haven't experienced it yet? Let my junior arrange one for you later. Once you experience it, you'll definitely get addicted. My junior's massage is so enjoyable, I almost regret teaching him the technique. Once you've experienced it, Minami, you'll probably wonder why you didn't experience it sooner. For example, I'm already a prisoner of my junior's fingers, about to become a useless person who can't live without Muneyuki and will give up all my possessions!"

Mai-senpai flicked her hair and said, half-jokingly.

Uesugi Muneyuki couldn't stop laughing; he had completely grasped Mai-senpai's weakness.

"Isn't that a bit much? Are you really talking about an essential oil massage? It sounds more like a suspicious drug." Miss Minami looked at me with disbelief, and a faint blush appeared on her face.

However, the expression on Erena's face told her that it was probably true!
Hey hey hey! What kind of person would be conquered by the essential oil massage techniques I taught and become Zongxue's captive?
You annoying national actress, stay away from my husband! At least don't show up in my house! "It's safe, at least massage itself is a very healthy and safe activity." Mai-senpai laughed, patting her reddened cheeks, recalling the feeling of her brain short-circuiting and going to heaven when her spiritual energy short-circuited, and winked at Uesugi Muneyuki.

When should you give it a try to your fiancée?
"Do you want Minami dead?" Uesugi Muneyuki rolled his eyes at her.

Minami is too delicate, so delicate that she makes sure he shaves every two or three days.

The strange atmosphere at home persisted until Asuka Saito returned.

The chosen girl, dressed in a school uniform, leather shoes, and black tights, instinctively wanted to complain as soon as she entered the door, but then she saw the confrontational atmosphere in the living room: "Huh? Mai-sama?"

"Sorry to bother you again today. I'm craving some Asuka-chan's cooking." Mai-senpai waved to Asuka: "Come here, Asuka, come to me."

"Asuka-chan, you've worked so hard today. You don't need to cook. My takeout is arriving soon. It's a super high-end three-layer sushi platter worth 28000 yen!" Minami also gestured for Asuka to come over.

The sense of factionalism within the family immediately became apparent.

The pure and charming chosen girl hesitated for a moment, tilting her head. The past friendship and the earlier acceptance made the scales in her heart tip. Asuka gave Mai-senpai an apologetic look and sat down next to Minami.

"Ha! My people are all here, how can you fight me?" Minami couldn't help but laugh.

Tsk! Mai wasn't surprised by the result, after all, it was just a temporary friendship, not as deep as the bond between Asuka, Minami, and Erena (?).

Looking at the situation at Sakata Bridge's house and the three pairs of beautiful legs in stockings sitting opposite her—some full and slender, some thin and delicate, and some tender and well-proportioned—Mai-senpai couldn't help but want to laugh.

Weekly Bunshun is useless; after investigating for so long, they couldn't even find out if my junior is a hardcore stocking fetishist, leg fetishist, foot fetishist, or clothing fetishist.

However, I do feel a bit isolated and alone.

Should he also cultivate a concubine to support him, just like Watanabe cultivated Ikeda?
Asuka is definitely out of the question... Mai-senpai started considering other candidates.

Who can be completely on my side, be liked by the juniors, and be easy to control?
"Where's Mikoto?" Uesugi Muneyuki couldn't help but ask when he saw that only Asuka had returned.

"Mom said she's not coming. Anyway, anyone who comes at this time knows what will happen." Asuka pouted and muttered, "After all, he's the notorious perverted harem man of Sakuradamon, and he's the kind of guy who's very moral and principled."

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha~" Asuka's吐槽 made everyone in the family burst into laughter, especially the girl, who had a bit of resentment that "you guys never include me", but also a bit of relief that "thankfully Uesugi held the line".

She was genuinely thinking of Uesugi Muneyuki; she truly didn't want to be separated from him.

"Since you love reporting on this so much, why don't we just go on a Disney trip? The three of us will go to Chiba Disney with Uesugi and have a blast!" Miss Minami said with a sneer, "Let the people get used to it and be defeated on their own."

"Huh? Disneyland, I want to go!" Minami's suggestion was immediately supported by Saito Asuka, who had wanted to go to Disneyland for a long time!
"As for you, Mai Shirakawa, the national actress from Soul-Link Agency, would you like to come with us?"

........................

The next day, at the Japan Heart Institute Hospital, ICU ward.

Despite a day of intensive care, Niitsu, the executive director of Weekly Bunshun, passed away with numerous tubes inserted into his body.

At that very moment, near the ICU, Uesugi Muneyuki and Shirakawa Mai had been waiting for quite some time.

They need to find out who instructed Weekly Bunshun to attack them.
