The Tokyo Police Journey Begins with the Ability to See Evil Thoughts

"Why did it take so long to open the door..."

After entering the house, Muheyou subconsciously glanced inside and muttered to herself.

Kamiya Gen poured her a cup of tea: "I just finished showering. Doesn't it take time to change clothes?"

As he said this, he noticed that the cup of tea that Igarashi had just drunk had not been dealt with, so he quickly put it aside and arranged for Muheyou to sit down.

The latter didn't beat around the bush and immediately took out a number of documents from his briefcase and placed them on the table:

"This is what I've found out. Would you like to take a look, Kamiya-kun?"

"Alright..."

Kamiya Gen can only receive and view the files.

But his mind was on something else.

For example... what if Igarashi, who's clinging to the air conditioner unit outside the window, suddenly falls off? And how does Yuzuki act so relaxed?

Logically speaking, since he and she had already kissed, their relationship should have soared to new heights, but in reality, it remained exactly the same.

—A normal girl isn't like this?

As Kamiya Gen thought this, he subconsciously shook his head.

Dumb Goose is definitely not a normal girl.

There was no confession, no childish love letters. It was Valentine's Day a few days ago, but he gave me chocolates out of obligation, and then suddenly kissed me after getting drunk...

Hmm—why does she seem like such a jerk? Could she actually be a seasoned veteran in relationships?

Kamiya Gen was lost in thought and didn't pay any attention to the information on the document.

It was Mu Heyou who spoke up and pulled him back.

"Why did it take you so long to look at this page, Kamiya-kun?"

"Uh, it's okay, it's better to look at it more closely..."

Kamiya Gen pointed to a spot on the document and said, "But these clues of yours don't seem to be very useful. You only know the address, but you don't even have a way to contact them. After so many years, it will be difficult to find those people involved."

Yuzuki knew this too, and sighed, "There's nothing I can do, this is the best I can do. What do you think I should do, Kamiya-kun? To be honest, everyone is quite uncooperative. Inspector Sakamoto doesn't even want to see me."

"Why don't we ask our family?"

"As for my mother... would it be inappropriate to ask her for help every time I need it? Besides, she seems to be very busy lately. Several times when I call her, she hangs up in a hurry."

"Do you really want to investigate this case?" Kamiya Gen asked.

As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized she was being incredibly stupid, because there would always only be one answer from Muheyou.

"I need to investigate. That building collapsed right in front of me, how can I not investigate?" Mu Heyou nodded.

"Alright... Let me think. There are too many people on this list that need to be investigated. Leave the documents here and I'll think about where to start. This matter involves too many people. If we want to investigate, we have to arrest the key figures all at once and investigate them thoroughly. If we investigate little by little, we'll definitely alert them."

Kamiya Gen said, looking at the document.

Mu Heyou was taken aback, not expecting him to be so easy to talk to.

She originally thought she would need to think of some more ways, and perhaps go back and forth with Kamiya Gen a few more times, before she could win him over.

"Kamiya-kun... why have you suddenly changed? You're much better than before."

Before I answer your question, could you please tell me...?

Kamiya Gen put down the documents, hesitated for a long time, and then asked, "Have you really forgotten what happened a few nights ago after we drank?"

"What exactly happened after we drank? Kamiya-kun has been talking about it these past few days. You can just tell me exactly what happened." Kiha Yu looked completely clueless.

Kamiya Gen frowned slightly and decided not to continue the discussion on this topic.

She's acting like some kind of virtuous, wronged woman who's been defiled. Since she wants to play dumb, let her continue pretending.

"Alright, let's stop here for now. Should I keep the documents?" Kamiya Gen asked.

Muheyou nodded: "This was originally for you, but I have another one for myself."

Kamiya Gen picked up his teacup and took a sip.

Without saying a word, that was considered a dismissal.

However, it was obvious that Muheyou did not understand his meaning, and she also picked up her cup and drank tea.

"Is there... anything else?" Kamiya Gen asked.

Muheyou quickly threw the question back: "Can't I sit here if there's nothing wrong?"

"That's not entirely true."

"Kamiya-kun, you're not going through a rebellious phase, are you?" Yuzuki suddenly said in a low voice.

"You're always saying things I don't understand at all."

Seeing Kamiya Gen's reaction, Muhe Yu stopped hiding it and pulled a long, dark red hair from the sofa beneath her. She held it up to the light and said, "I thought this was your own dyed hair, but it probably isn't. It's too long. It's not Kamiya-kun's hair."

Kamiya Gen's lips twitched slightly. He glanced at the window out of the corner of his eye; it could only be Igarashi's hair.

After thinking for a moment, he spoke:

"What does this mean? It means that the hotel is very unsanitary and has not been cleaned properly at all."

"Can you smell anything else in the room?" Muheyou sniffed around like a little puppy.

Kamiya Gen rubbed his temples: "I didn't smell anything."

"It smells like a woman's perfume. It can't be Miyazawa. She would never wear perfume. And the hair color doesn't match either. Hmph... I really can't tell. He always has a serious face at work, but he changes completely after get off work."

Muheyou crossed her arms and leaned back on the sofa, raising her chin slightly.

Kamiya Gen cursed inwardly, trying to cover up the lie while also keeping an eye on the movements outside the window—who knew if Igarashi had jumped or not, but judging from the previous situation, she probably wouldn't dare to jump. If Kiha Yu saw this, he would be in deep trouble.

He moved forward a bit and said, "It's not what you think. He's just an informant I met on a previous case. He came over to deliver some information and left after sitting for less than two minutes."

"An informant?"

Mu Heyou clearly didn't believe it, raising an eyebrow and pointing to the cold cup of tea on the side table. "An informant comes to deliver a message, and you have to pour them a cup of hot tea? And you have to talk to them behind closed doors in a hotel room? I've been your partner for so long, how come I've never known you had this female informant with dyed red hair?"

"Isn't it because the case is sensitive and it's inconvenient to discuss it outside?"

Kamiya Gen was stubborn, but then realized his words were a bit harsh, so he softened his tone, "Besides, I have informants doing things; I can't report everything to you, can I?"

Upon hearing this, Mu Heyou's face instantly fell. She turned her face away from him, reaching for the documents on the table, her tone several degrees colder:

"Fine, if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine. It's none of your business. As for the case, if you don't want to help, that's okay too. I'll investigate it myself. I won't bother you anymore."

As she spoke, she braced herself on the sofa to get up, clearly indicating that she was genuinely upset.

Kamiya Gentou is a big deal. It's not that he's afraid she'll be angry, but he simply can't tell her the truth. He can't exactly tell her that the people who came are her mother's men, who came specifically to deliver dirt on the family infighting so that he can help her bring down the elders of her family, can he?

Given her personality, if she found out, she would probably call and confront him on the spot.

Kamiya Gen reached out and grabbed her wrist: "Alright, why would I lie to you? I really am someone involved in this case. Okay, actually it's the dormitory collapse case you're investigating. An informant gave me some inside information. He was risking his life to deliver the information, so I can't reveal his identity."

Mu Heyou paused, turning to look at him: "Is it this case? You've actually been investigating it privately?"

"I am investigating... and I may have more information than you."

"Tell me about it," Muheyou said, looking distrustful.

After thinking for a moment, Kamiya Gen decided to share some information: "You can only find the construction company Kurosawa Kengyo, right? You don't know where to look for the companies you were previously in charge of."

"Do you have any leads?"

"Yes, some. Have you heard of Sakurai Construction?"

Upon hearing the words "Sakurai Construction," Muhe You paused for a moment before truly believing that Kamiya Gen was indeed secretly helping with the investigation. During her investigation over the past few days, she had also heard about this company from some people, but when she tried to talk to them further, they became uncooperative, which was why she hadn't included this clue in the documents.

"Okay, so even if you really do have an informant... it's not like it's from that company, is it?"

Muheyou spoke up, and the first thing she thought of was Harukawa Trading. After all, in the previous case, it was Kamiya Gen who contacted his internal staff and directly brought the criminal to Shibuya.

"It really is that company, why care about that..."

"Let me think about it."

Looking at the red-haired man still on the table, Muheyou slowly said, "Your informant isn't that...Igarashi, the one we met before?"

Is this guy a detective?

That's so illogical. It's not surprising that they could mention Qingchuan Trading Company, but how could they just point to a person's name like that?

Could it be that she's a genius, and is just pretending to be herself?

As Kamiya Gen thought this, he couldn't help but re-examine Mushiyu.

Thinking about it carefully, this guy just looks dull and acts slowly... but he's actually quite capable. His high case-solving rate and speed are due to the system's help. He basically locks down the target first and then looks for clues, which is like shooting the arrow before drawing the target.

But Muheyou doesn't have a system, yet she always manages to find clues in advance, doesn't she?

For example, in the previous smuggling case, she and I were speeding along on a motorcycle, and she gave us the route. We had no idea where the suspects would go, and I thought we were definitely going to miss them.

"As expected, I was right," Muheyou said with a smile.

"She's really impressive... She was here."

"Is it really just a chat?"

"Otherwise, what can we do? You're just overthinking things. And if I wanted to hide it, do you think you'd find something like hair? Putting everything else aside, when it comes to handling evidence, you're not necessarily better than me..."

As Kamiya Gen was speaking, he suddenly noticed that Kiha Yu's expression was becoming increasingly serious, so he shut his mouth and subconsciously turned his head to follow her gaze.

Now, on the windowsill, Igarashi has climbed back up, trembling all over.

She looked embarrassed, perched on the windowsill, and awkwardly laughed at the two of them:

"Sorry... it's really cold outside, and the air conditioner is blowing cold air from the outdoor unit. I couldn't stand it anymore, so I had to climb back up."

Kamiya Gen was helpless.

Muhe Yu rolled her eyes at him and said quietly, "What does Kamiya-kun want to say now? Is it really necessary for an informant to be hiding outside?"

"I told you I shouldn't have..."

Before Kamiya Gen could finish speaking, Kiha Yu had already walked out of the room with her briefcase.

bang——

The door was slammed shut, indicating that someone was truly angry.

Kamiya Gen stared at the door that had been slammed shut, his temples throbbing. He turned and glared at Igarashi Nagisa, who was still perched on the windowsill.

"Are you satisfied now? I told you not to do these sneaky things, but you insisted on doing it outside. Now look what happened, you've driven him away in anger."

Nagisa Igarashi quickly jumped down from the windowsill, bowed deeply to him, and said with a face full of guilt, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Kamiya. It was my oversight. My hands and feet were frozen, and I couldn't hold on any longer, so I thought of climbing in. Otherwise, I would have really fallen down."

Realizing she had caused trouble, she quickly added, "I'll leave right now and I promise I won't cause you any more trouble. I will never come to your door again."

"Hurry up and leave, don't run into her in the hallway."

Kamiya Gen waved his hand irritably, his mind filled with the eye roll from Muhe You and the loud bang of the door slamming shut.

Nagisa Igarashi didn't dare linger. She apologized again, quietly opened the door, and after confirming that no one was in the corridor, quickly slipped away.

The room quickly returned to silence, leaving only the documents spread out on the coffee table and the cup of cold tea that hadn't been put away yet.

Kamiya Gen first picked up the red hair from the sofa cushions and threw it into the trash can, then poured two cups of iced tea into the sink and haphazardly tidied up the mess on the table.

After tidying up the room, Kamiya Gen took a shower, then lay down on the bed and casually turned on the TV.

The sound of the evening news filled the room, but he didn't hear a single word.

After hesitating for a long time, Kamiya Gen finally reached for his phone, found Kiha Yu's number, and prepared to press the call button.

But then I thought, I haven't done anything wrong, so why should I call her?

After confirming this, Kamiya Gen was about to relax and watch some TV when his phone rang unexpectedly.

After hesitating for a moment, Kamiya Gen still chose to answer the call.

"Uncle, what are you doing?" Miyazawa Yuzuki's voice came from the other end.

"I'll lie down and watch TV," Kamiya Gen replied.

"I haven't had time to visit you lately because I've been preparing for exams, and my study time has been a bit limited..."

"Wait, why are you studying for exams? Are you secretly messing around again?" Kamiya Gen interrupted.

"What... what am I like in your eyes? Why would you say that about me? I really am studying hard. By the way, I'm planning to join a club, the track and field club, what do you think?"

"Are you preparing to practice long-distance running so you can easily escape when you're in a fight?"

Hearing her slightly mournful tone, Kamiya Gen relaxed a bit and jokingly asked.

"Actually, I did consider that, but I mainly want to take the route of applying to university through special talents."

"Very energetic."

When Kamiya Gen heard her suddenly mention taking the college entrance exam, he immediately replied.
