Tokyo Detective

Chapter 548 Multiple Nightmares
Just as Naoki Yuzuru was kissing his own beautiful face, which he could never get enough of, Seiko Akimoto pressed against the man's chest and reminded him.

"By the way, it's the Commissioner of Police's 60th birthday, and he's invited high-ranking officers in the police system. I received your invitation a few days ago, so remember to go."

Naoki Hanyu was somewhat speechless.

"This old guy is retiring in four months and he's still bothering people. Can't you help me refuse?"

"Do you want to leave an impression of being unruly in the minds of all your colleagues? Fukada Yusuke will retire in a few months. Just put up with him for now. It's good for you, good for the police in Fukada's faction, and good for everyone."

Naoki Hanyu hugged the policewoman tightly around the waist.

"Yes, yes, you're right, Holy Sister. You really have a great sense of the big picture."

Seiko Akimoto rolled her eyes at the other person.

Naoki Hanyu felt uneasy thinking about the disgusting methods Fukada Yusuke had used on him, and he really didn't want to see the old man happily celebrate his 60th birthday.

Although he wouldn't kill someone over a trivial matter, and he's not some kind of demon, it wouldn't be bad to let the old man get a minor illness and retire early.

Naoki Hanyu gestured for the female ghost Elsa to come over, and quietly showed her Fukada Yusuke's information and address on his phone.

"Go and make my old boss sick. It doesn't have to be serious, just enough to make him retire early."

"Yes, Master."

"I can't believe it," said Seiko Akimoto, puzzled.

What are you muttering to yourself?

"I'm talking to a ghost."

At first, Akimoto Seiko didn't believe it, but then she remembered the cases she had experienced and couldn't help but feel nervous. In addition to being afraid of spiders, she was also very wary of ghosts and the like.

"Don't talk about ghosts or monsters at night."

"I insist on saying that there is a rumor circulating in Japan about a deadly videotape. Anyone who watches it will suddenly receive a phone call at night, and the person who answers the call will definitely die within 7 days."

Seiko Akimoto pressed the man's face against hers.

"I told you not to say it, or you'll never get into bed with me again."

"I'm not afraid."

While the two were joking around, Naoki Hanyu was planning to make another big splash tomorrow to shock the world.

Actually, Naoki Hanyu said that there are similar urban legends in this world about the story of the Ring, but I don't know if they are true or not.
.
That night, Fukada Yusuke tossed and turned in bed, having a nightmare.

In his dream, he was also lying in bed, but he was unable to move as if he were experiencing sleep paralysis. He could only vaguely see a figure gradually entering through the door, getting closer and closer, and the face of the figure changed to the various people he had wronged and killed after becoming a policeman.

Soon the dark figure stood at the head of the bed, its hideous face almost touching.

"Give me back my life, Fukada Yusuke."

"what"

The stench and the visual shock seemed to startle Fukada Yusuke, who opened his eyes with a sweaty brow. Although he felt terrible, thankfully there were no eerie shadows.

"Thank goodness it was just a dream."

Suddenly, Fukada Yusuke felt a strange touch on his chest under the blanket. He assumed it was his wife putting her hand inside, so he spoke up.

"Rina and I are an old married couple, and she's still doing this kind of thing? I..."

Fukada Yusuke stopped talking, because he noticed that his wife was lying next to him, and he could see the outline of her hands. What was under the blanket?
Fukada Yusuke slowly pulled back the covers, and there in his arms was a hideous and grotesque human head. The pale, rotting face looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember who it was.

"Hehe, you've spotted me."

"Ah ah ah ah ah"

When Fukada Yusuke opened his eyes again, his pillow was completely soaked with sweat.

His wife, Rina Fukada, who was standing nearby, was woken up and asked a question.

"What's wrong with you, old man?"

Fukada Yusuke held his wife tightly, his face rather pale.

"It's nothing, just a nightmare."

"At such an old age, you still have nightmares."

"Sorry, the things in dreams are a bit scary."

His wife's presence calmed Fukada Yusuke down, but what she said the next second stunned him.

"Really? Is it any scarier than me?"

Fukada Yusuke loosened his embrace with trepidation, and the terrifying face that came into view made him scream again.

"what"

At 2 a.m., a woman's worried voice came from the Fukada house.

"Old man, what's wrong with you? You're sweating profusely and you've lost control of your bladder?"

"I, I, I don't know what happened either."

"Fever."
.
A group of young people stumbled out of an upscale nightclub, clearly having drunk quite a bit. Among them was Ayano Ito, the mastermind behind framing Daichi Shida.

Their small circle consists of similar families, either high-ranking government officials or wealthy individuals, who reside in the port area.

A woman grabbed Ito Ayano's hand and asked curiously, "Ayano, that guy just jumped off a building and died yesterday. I can't believe you still dared to come out with us. Aren't you afraid of running into him on the street at night?"

The others egged them on.

"Yes, yes, although Shida Daichi is a bit despicable, he is still a human life."

Ito Ayano rolled her eyes at her friend.

"That guy couldn't handle the pressure, so he took his own life, which caused me to be bothered by a lot of flies."

"Haha, do you want me to clarify things for you online? My Ayano is a top-notch person."

The drunken crowd immediately started discussing the topic, and someone even posted a rebuttal online, only to be met with insults in return.

Of course, most of those who attacked Ayano Ito were men who empathized with her and felt that Daichi Shida was wronged. However, the court's verdict prevented public outrage from reaching a level that would cause widespread anger.

In addition, some women continue to curse the deceased Daichi Shida, claiming that he did such a thing and disgusted others with his own life, which is really despicable.

These kinds of posts keep appearing, and the gender divide in the comments is quite serious, with each side having its own supporters.
.
Soon everyone drove away, but Ayano Ito walked towards the waiting driver/bodyguard. Her parents were worried that she would be retaliated against by someone, so they arranged for a driver.

Although Ito Ayano disliked this a bit, she did not refuse.

His parents are from the current prime minister's faction, so he has the potential to rise to a higher position.

Because of this relationship, they not only won in the legal arena, but also fought back and forth in the public opinion arena.

As for the reason, it's quite simple.

She was a senior law student and took the entrance exam for graduate school, but unfortunately she was not selected, since there were only 30 places available for the entire law department.

There are many more students in other disciplines: 100 in economics, 200 in policy and media, and 300 in science and engineering.

With limited spots available due to a high demand, she set her sights on Daichi Shida's place and seized the opportunity to make her move, leading to the scene at the school cafeteria. Keio University, considering all factors, completely sided with her.

Now that I've achieved my goal and qualified for graduate school, my life plan is still exactly as my parents arranged, and I haven't made any mistakes. The only change is that I'm now a poor person.

Who would have thought that Daichi Shida would commit suicide, turning his once dominant position in public opinion into a potential crisis of public opinion?

Ayano Ito spat at this thought.

"Aokigahara Itsuki wants to hang himself at sea. What a troublesome and harmful person."

Just then, a woman walked towards her and caught her eye. Judging from her figure, she was a girl, wearing a mask which looked a little suspicious, and she was also wearing gloves.

Ito Ayano didn't pay much attention at first, until the other person pulled out a small knife and rushed over, which made Ito Ayano scream in fright.

"Help me."

The blade grazed Ayano Ito's face, and the attack that was meant to pierce her heart was dodged, only striking her arm instead.

The girl wearing a mask is none other than Saeko Shida, the daughter of the Shida family.

After following Ayano Ito for a night, Saeko Shida finally found an opportunity to make her move. Although the girl was filled with anger and murderous intent, her mind was very clear.

Having failed in her first attack, Saeko Shida realized she couldn't catch up with Ayano Fujiwara, and that Fujiwara's bodyguards were also in pursuit. So she immediately turned and fled into the alley.

The prepared miscellaneous items were overturned and blocked, and in the blink of an eye, the girl disappeared.

When the bodyguard returned to Ayano Ito's side, the law student probably guessed who the newcomer was. She said she didn't care, but she knew very well about Daichi Shida's family.

"Saeko Shida, damn it, damn it."

Ayano Ito looked at her disfiguring wounds in the mirror and considered many ways to take revenge, but she needed to discuss it with her parents before she could do anything.

At 4 a.m., as Saeko Shida was waiting at home for the police to arrive, repeatedly going over various coping strategies in her mind, there was indeed a knock on the door, and the voice of the police could be heard.

After her mother, Kumiko Shida, opened the door, Saeko Shida was stunned by what happened next.

"Kumiko Shida, you are suspected of assaulting Ayano Ito. Please come back with us."

Kumiko Shida looked bewildered. She was still thinking about her husband and son's funerals when the police suddenly showed up at her door.

"I didn't do it."

"These are the arrest warrant and search warrant. The police have found the evidence. We can talk about this at the police station."

At this moment, Saeko Shida's face turned deathly pale, and she was somewhat at a loss.

My mother stayed home all night and there were no witnesses. The neighborhood was a poor area with few surveillance cameras, so it was impossible to provide an alibi.

Saeko Shida rushed over.

"No, it was I who hurt Fujiwara Ayano, arrest me."

The two police officers merely gave the girl a cold look.

"Please do not obstruct official business."

She was taken away quickly. Even though Saeko Shida tried to resist, she was subdued by a middle-aged policewoman and not taken back to the police station.

Soon, the empty house was left with only the girl, and her sobs finally broke out.
.
The next morning, news of Kumiko Shida retaliating against Ayano Ito was broadcast. With the wounds on Ayano Fujiwara's face and arms as evidence, not many people questioned it.

After all, a woman is unlikely to use disfigurement to frame someone; she would rather stab herself twice than be disfigured.

Another news item is that two terrorist organizations have made new moves.

"The YMCA and the Revitalization Association became partners, exchanging various unique weapons."
