Tokyo: Simulation Begins with the Big Sister Next Door

This is such a blatant case of discrimination!

"We're innocent! Officer! We're the victims! That student is the bad guy!"

"Yes! Officer, look at our injuries, they were all caused by him!"

"Don't let that bastard's innocent-looking face fool you, he's a devil! A devil!!"

"That bastard demon always hits vital points when he hits people. My testicles are still hurting, and I feel like they're going to be ruined."

"Officer, I suspect that kid is an assassin. He chased after all of us and beat us up all by himself! No one but an assassin could be that ruthless."

"Officer, please believe me! Please investigate that guy thoroughly! He might have killed someone before!"

The thugs, feeling wronged and anxious, shouted and yelled.

Especially the samurai leader, if his hands weren't cuffed, he would have jumped up to demonstrate how he had been brutally murdered.

However, the police officers present did not believe the thugs' report at all.

Are you kidding me?

A seemingly clean-cut high school student chases and beats up several delinquents.

Are you making an action-packed movie?

"Police sister and police uncle, please believe me!"

"Look at our injuries! If we hadn't been chased and beaten by him, how would we have gotten these bruises?"

"Yeah, yeah! It can't be that we're hitting ourselves, can it?"

"We're truly innocent! That guy was the one who did it!"

The thugs noticed the looks in the eyes of the police officers present and cried out their innocence even more loudly.

But still, nobody believed it.

Bruises?

It must have been left behind from a fight with other gangs of thugs.

These kinds of delinquents are always either fighting or on their way to fight.

Does having a few injuries justify using them as an excuse to slander a student?

Bullshit!

"It's so noisy! Shut up!"

"You were brought here to give statements, not to stand here yelling nonsense!"

"Anyone who makes another loud noise will be detained!"

Matsumiya Tomomi opened her mouth in a rage, her loud voice instantly drowning out the screams of the thugs.

The overwhelming aura startled the thugs, who unconsciously shrank back and fell silent like frightened chicks.

Even Anze Liang from next door was drawn to this powerful aura and looked over. After noticing Anze Liang's gaze, Matsumiya Yumi immediately put away her rough attitude and adopted a very restrained and ladylike expression. She looked at the thugs with a 'kind' smile, but her tone was extremely cold as she said, "Now I ask, you answer. Don't say anything unnecessary. Do you understand?"

"Listen, I understand..."

The thugs obediently sat side by side with their legs together and heads down, looking just like elementary school students on a school trip.

About ten minutes later, An Zeliang cooperated with the middle-aged police officer to complete the statement taking.

"Alright, Anze, thank you for your cooperation. You can go home and rest now."

"However, since this involves a murder case, we need to trouble you to stay in Tokyo for the time being. We may come to your door at any time to learn about the relevant situation as the case progresses."

At this point, the middle-aged policeman glanced at the clock on the wall: "It's already nine o'clock?"

Matsumiya Tomomi, who was taking statements from the thugs nearby, immediately perked up her ears.

Seeing An Zeliang get up, she quickly got up and came over, saying in a very warm tone, "It's so late, An Zeliang, it must be inconvenient for you to get home, right? Why don't you wait until I finish giving my statement and then I'll drive you home?"

The beautiful policewoman's drastic change in attitude almost made the thugs cry with envy.

Damn it! So what if that kid is a little handsome!

Besides being handsome and a good fighter, what else does he have?!

Anze Liang naturally sensed that Officer Matsumiya was very kind to him, but he still smiled and politely declined: "Matsumiya-neechan, thank you for your kindness, but the police station is not far from my home. I can walk back by myself and won't delay your work."

"Oh, I see... Well then, Anze, be careful on your journey. If you encounter any danger, be sure to call the police immediately. This is my phone number, write it down."

"Yes, thank you, Matsumiya-neechan!"

"It's okay, bye-bye, Anze."

"Goodbye, Matsumiya-neechan."

With Tomomi Matsumiya watching him leave with lingering reluctance, Ryo Ansawa departed the police station.

Matsumiya Tomomi felt a little disappointed that she couldn't take the handsome young man home, but she didn't insist. She figured he already had her phone number, and maybe he'd call her after he got home, leading to some unexpected romance between an older woman and a younger man… Ah, just thinking about going on a date with a handsome high school boy made her so happy!

Matsumiya Tomomi snapped out of her infatuation, turned around, and sternly reprimanded the group of thugs, "What are you all standing there for! Continue explaining what happened!"

"??"

This stark contrast in attitude almost brought the thugs to tears.

Why?

We're the ones who got beaten up! We're the ones who need comforting!!

……

at the same time.

As An Zeliang walked home, he also pondered the case he had encountered that day.

Based on previous information, the "scumbag killer" has never targeted women.

But ironically, today's dead include women.

Could it really be a case of copycat crime?

Or...

Is there actually two murderers in today's case?

Someone discovered the male body first, so they simply took the opportunity to use the scumbag killer to confuse the public?

"Tsk... How can such a small place like Tokyo have so many murderers? And of all things I could have done, run into them."

"This isn't the world of Detective Conan, and I'm not a Grim Reaper elementary school student. Why are people dying everywhere I go?"

“It’s outrageous.”

An Zeliang thought to himself.

Then, he suddenly thought of that strange Lolita-like female neighbor and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"That Lolita girl looks so delicate and frail. If she's a heartbreaker, could she really kill an adult male head-on with her small frame?"

"Judging from the traces at the crime scene, the deceased male was clearly chased to death."

"That alone is enough to rule out assassination."

"If this case is not a copycat crime, but was committed by the scumbag killer himself, then the scumbag killer must be very strong."

"Besides that... if I remember correctly, there was a case before where a karate expert was killed?"

"A woman with exceptional combat skills, also proficient in infiltration, hand-to-hand combat, and assassination..."

"Tsk..."

An Zeliang fell into deep thought.

Until the stomach sends a strong hunger signal to the brain.

"It's already past nine o'clock. Sigh, I wasted too much time today. I only drank a glass of water all night. So this is what it feels like to be too hungry? No wonder Tamamo-san has been drinking coffee to fill her stomach."

"Never mind, I'll just find a convenience store nearby and grab something to eat."

"Let's start the simulation when we get back."

Thinking about it, An Zeliang glanced at the sign of a convenience store a hundred meters away.

Hunger spurred him to quicken his pace.

When he was less than 20 or 30 meters away from the convenience store, he suddenly noticed a girl wearing a mask and cute clothes talking to passersby. Judging from her behavior, she seemed to be soliciting customers.

But what caught his attention wasn't the girl's graceful figure or profession, but rather the familiarity he felt with her eyes and brows.

Seem to have seen it somewhere?

Out of curiosity, and also because it was on his way, Anze Liangduo took a closer look.

The girl seemed to have failed to attract customers and turned around in disappointment, just in time to meet An Zeliang's gaze.

In that instant, the simulated memory of ruthlessness surfaced, allowing An Zeliang to recognize the owner of those eyes and eyebrows.

"Sayemina?"

Chapter 29: Sayaka's感动 (moved/touched), so, her older sister didn't...

"Eh?!"

The moment their eyes met, Sayaka Mina recognized Yasuzawa Ryo.

Because of Anzawa Ryo's outstanding performance in the math exam two days prior, Sayaka Mina clearly remembered this genius student. Especially since Anzawa was also exceptionally handsome, he was the object of many girls' secret crushes.

If we met at a different time or place, Sayaka would definitely shyly look away.

But running into a classmate at this time and place is just too awkward.

"I'm doomed! If he recognizes me, my life is over!"

"Wait, I'm wearing a mask, he shouldn't... recognize me, right?"

"But...but his eyes...it seems like he already recognizes me!"

"How to do how to do?"
