MTL - After Binding the Barrage, My Friend and I Wore Red and Black-Chapter 22
The intense pain ripped through his body, almost making him faint.
Tsujimoto Yuma clung to the fabric with her fingers tightly, her brows furrowed unnaturally, cold sweat dripping out of her clothes.
He realized that his state was not quite right, but what he had to do had been done, and the rest was fine.
Isn't that the case every time anyway? After completing the task, they were picked up by Gin and the others, and threw it into the back parking space, just like throwing garbage out.
The more conscious you are, the more intense the pain will be.
Sometimes it's not a good thing to live too awake.
But this time when he woke up, his physical condition was much better than expected. The smell of the medicine in his nose is not too strong, and he is not even lying on the hospital bed surrounded by various needles.
He returned to the safe house, slept on the familiar bed, changed into looser clothes, and was cleaned of blood and stains.
The pain caused by the bomb seemed to be just an illusion. The moment he woke up, the sun fell on him across the windowsill, as if performing a holy baptism.
Tsujimoto Yuma just lay on the bed and felt the warmth for a moment, those indigo blue eyes were like the deep sea, haunted by the confused fog and the blur of the night.
Memories are fragmented.
He only remembered that the last person who greeted him was no longer Jinjiu, but Zhufu Jingguang... The ghost knows why he came here, but he just went back, and he didn't care who the target was.
However, he just remembered that Zhu Fu Jingguang is not suitable for showing up now.
Oh, if he can't bring himself back safely, it can only mean that he is a waste.
"Are you awake? Do you want to get up to eat?"
The man's voice sounded from his ears, and Tsujimoto Yuma tugged at the ends of his messy hair and smelled a very shallow sweetness.
"Sweet porridge?" Tsujimoto Yuma quickly smelled it.
Compared with Tsujimoto Tsujimoto, who is absolutely meat-eating and salty, Tsujimoto Yu is an out-and-out sweet party, and he especially likes light food.
"Yes, it is better for the patient to eat light." Zhu Fu Jingguang said with his back to him.
"What, I look so weak..."
Tsujimoto Yuma, who was about to get out of bed, was suddenly tripped, and her pupils subconsciously enlarged.
Wait a moment? ? What was bound to his wrists and ankles? ? rope? ? ?
How dare this guy tie him with a rope? ? ?
"Are you looking for death! Zhufu Jingguang!" Tsujimoto Yuzhen had a fierce look on his face.
"You have too many wounds on your body, and it is more troublesome to help you bandage. This is also a trade-off in desperation." Zhu Fu Jingguang explained.
"Who taught you to bind like this?! Who do you think you are! You—"
Before Tsujimoto Yuma could get up and go forward, his feet suddenly softened, and the whole person actually collapsed to the ground.
At this moment, he was startled, and the fear in his heart almost floated.
No, that's not right.
Even when he was most seriously injured, he wouldn't even be able to walk.
What did Zhu Fu Jingguang do to him?
"Senior, you are too nervous."
The black-haired young man walked slowly to his side. When the other party's hand touched his wrist, Tsujimoto Yuma shrank back subconsciously, but the other party lightly grabbed his wrist.
"I won't hurt you. The contract is still valid, and I'll take care of you."
His figure was reflected in his blue eyes, clear without any impurities.
At this moment, Zhu Fu Jingguang's figure seemed to be transformed into another person he was very familiar with.
That's the person he can't face the most.
Do not…
"I do not need."
Tsujimoto Yuma stared at the other party's eyes, with a tone of anger that he had never felt before.
"Now, now, immediately, get me out!"
·
Inside the Police Department.
"That's the way it is." Tsujimoto put the letter on the table and glanced at the people around him.
"I was threatened, and the other party wrote a letter signed with A."
Tsujimoto immediately disclosed A's letter to everyone in the Metropolitan Police Department.
And such a blatant threat content really does not pay attention to the Metropolitan Police Department.
"Maybe it's just an ordinary threatening letter?" Tsujimoto read it over and over for a while,
"Most importantly, do I seem like the type to accumulate hatred so easily?"
"What do you think?" Matsuda Jinping was indifferent.
"You have too many subjective thoughts, Matsuda-kun." Tsujimoto was not happy.
"I don't think this matter can be taken lightly." The Gugu Police Department is very serious about this.
"Whether he wants to attack Officer Tsujimoto or not, we have to work 100% to investigate this matter."
"Speaking of which, is there anything wrong with Officer Tsujimoto? For example, an enemy family or something?" Hagihara Kenji asked actively.
"How is that possible!" Tsujimoto was displeased,
"Do I look like someone who attracts enemies so easily!"
Everyone looked at him silently.
"Okay, then I'll think about it carefully." Tsujimoto immediately restrained his smile, and his expression became a lot more serious.
"Could it be related to the case I handled before? If the prisoner's friends or relatives hold a grudge against me, it is also possible."
"If that's true, Officer Tsujimoto may have offended too many people." The Furuya Police Department covered his forehead in pain.
Due to the high efficiency of case handling, the cases handled by Officer Tsujimoto could fill half of the restroom.
What's more, Tsujimoto didn't take this matter to heart at all, and seeing that happy face, the head of the Furuya Police Department began to hurt again.
"Then let's take a step by step." Tsujimoto put away the letters on the table.
"At the end of the day, there are many ways a person can want to kill another person, but by [killing] I don't necessarily mean taking my life."
"Killing me on a social level is perhaps more important to him."
"Social level?? You mean...he wants you to be disgraced?" Matsuda Jinping was stunned for a moment.
"That's right." Tsujimoto put the letter away and looked at the Furuya Police Department.
"I will investigate the matter related to A, Senior Furuya, this has threatened my personal safety, and I can't sit still."
"as well as-"
Tsujimoto was involved for a while before continuing,
"If you can, help me watch Officer Xinyuan a little more."
"Officer Nobuhara? Why?" Hagihara Kenji felt a little strange.
"Just look at it, maybe I'm thinking too much." Tsujimoto Shiren shook the phone in his hand,
"I'm not going to work today. I have an appointment with a private investigator to investigate this matter. I'll go to the law firm to see it later. If there is no accident, I should be able to investigate useful information."
After politely rejecting Hagihara Kenji's request to send him back, Tsujimoto quickly left the Metropolitan Police Department.
When he went out, he saw his car parked not far away at a glance. The license plate number was changed back, and the other party should have come to return the car.
"I didn't expect you to come to pick me up." Tsujimoto opened the front passenger's door naturally and fastened his seat belt.
"Why, were you kicked out by my brother?"
"…Um."
Sitting next to him is Zhu Fu Jingguang after the disguise. His own disguise level is not high, but after learning with Tsujimoto Yuzhen for a while, he can hide his face skillfully.
"It's okay, he's just not very good-tempered, and he eats softly rather than hard. You will be fine if you do as I say." Tsujimoto put his fingers in his arms,
"Did he use your friends to threaten you? Yujin won't take it lightly, he will weigh the pros and cons. He may look angry, but he has a clearer calculation in his brain than anyone else."
"If you're worried, I can assure you that I can protect Rei Furuya - in the name of Tsujimoto Shito."
Every word that Tsujimoto said was inexplicably reassuring, as if he himself had an absolutely firm belief that he would say these words.
Zhufu Jingguang was willing to trust the other party, but he was still a little curious about Tsujimoto's involvement.
"Does the police officer involved know about us?" It stands to reason that he should be very aware of the black organization, but Zhu Fu Jingguang is not very sure.
"Of course I know, I've been investigating you all the time." Tsujimoto said slowly.
"I'll be transferred to the police in the second half of the year. I know your affairs very well."
Not surprising then.
"Just take good care of Yuma. According to the method I taught you, he will definitely be obedient." Tsujimoto lowered his voice.
"Sometimes he does things that escape him, so just follow him. By the way - he won't read any information about me from your mind, so you don't have to worry about the news of our acquaintance being revealed."
"How did you do it???" Zhu Fu Jingguang was shocked.
"Pfft, just treat it as a wonderful connection between brothers." Tsujimoto smiled.
"In order to prevent him from running around, I added some other things while bandaging, so he shouldn't be able to track you for the time being. He'll probably be weak for a few days, and then I'll ask you to take care of him more."
"I have to do something these days, but I can't let him participate."
In fact, he added a debuff to the breath of the archangel, which would cause absolute weakness for a period of time after using it. If it's someone involved, it might be able to output frantically with the debuff, but Yuzhen definitely can't.
Although I'm a little sorry for Yuzhen, but he doesn't want Yuzhen to contact A anymore.
"You are really a pair of quite complicated brothers." Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't help but sigh.
"Yeah, I think it's fine." Tsujimoto glanced at his watch.
"Go to Hanyu's law firm, I want to see Hanyu Ibuki. And - from the moment onwards, you are the private investigator I hired, don't speak again until I ask you questions."
…
The reason why I can't speak is because the barrage is coming soon.
He has not planned to reveal the identity of Zhu Fu Jingguang in front of the barrage. This secret is shared by them, and it is also a reasonable transaction.
【Ah, ah, A, this bastard! Not to mention hurting so many children! Do you still want to take action against someone involved? 】
【This is not a sick child! This guy is crazy! How can you play like this! 】
[A wants to ruin the reputation of Sheren-chan? Absolutely! Damn, it's also a sick girl, Yuzhen is not much better than A! 】
[I apologize for thinking of Yuzhen and A as one person before! At least Yuzhen will respect his brother's choice, A is a mad dog... and Alaska! Shame on Alaska! 】
[That Alaska is actually the name of the wine...]
[Speaking of which, the private detective hired by the person involved looks familiar? 】
【yes? I think it's the public face. Must be a passerby, right? 】
[They seem to be planning to go to a law firm? Why go to a law firm? ? 】
【Do you want to file a lawsuit? But he still doesn't know the identity of A? ? 】
[Or what does that lawyer Hanyu know? I can't understand the operation of Shirenjiang...]
【hateful! But I'm really worried that Shiren sauce will be dyed black, woo woo woo... Don't bite people even if it's a mad dog! 】
[I don’t think it’s necessary to dye it black, Sheren sauce itself is black. 】
[Pfft, think about it for the better, maybe Shiren already knows who A is! Maybe you're still thinking about fighting back! 】
【I also believe in Shiren sauce! Just a cannon fodder for a mere black-clothed organization! There is absolutely no problem with Shiren sauce! 】
…
So far, the barrage is still very confident in him.
Although Tsujimoto didn't know where this confidence came from, he actually hadn't investigated A's whereabouts.
His information search channels are limited. If you change to Yuzhen, it is estimated that you will be able to find A's action route soon, right?
But no.
If Yi Youzhen is really revealed, A's suspicion of Yuzhen will definitely rise, and maybe he will continue to seek revenge.
Yuzhen's safety is the top priority, and he plans to solve this incident secretly by himself.
Due to the previous incident of hijacking the gin, A must be vigilant about the person involved, and will not believe that he really doesn't know anything. At least in terms of acting skills, he has fooled Jinjiu, and there is no reason to fool A.
If A is coming towards him, then let him come.
The best hunters appear in the form of prey, so let's see how he intends to destroy himself.
Tsujimoto is also very curious.
The Hanyu Law Firm is still operating these days, but Tsujimoto has not heard from Ibuki Hanyu for a few days.
Not long ago, that gentleman wrote a news report touting Tsujimoto's merits, and even gave him an interview in his absence.
"Officer Tsujimoto? Ah, although I haven't had much contact with him, I can feel that he is quite a humorous senior."
"Officer Tsujimoto is very powerful. I can give everything to protect everyone. I have always been attracted by the light on Officer Tsujimoto."
"Hahahaha, I'm not really a powerful person. I'm still far behind Police Officer Tsujimoto. Let's say, Officer Tsujimoto is my idol!"
…
His toes curled up at the compliment.
Hanyu Ibuki, a well-known rising star in the legal world, is friendly, has an excellent personality, and has perfect communication skills. He also calls himself his fan.
No matter how you look at it, it is not a good Lord to deal with.
Tsujimoto had doubts about the other party, but Ibuki Hanyu's defense was tight and he didn't plan to give him any chance to find loopholes.
"excuse me."
Mr. Tsujimoto knocked on the door of the law firm, and at the same time cleared his throat,
"Can you open the door?"
After a while, the heavy door of the law firm was slowly pushed open, and a timid-looking girl quickly appeared in front of him.
"Well, are you here to find Mr. Hanyu?"
"Yes." Tsujimoto leaned down slightly, and his tone was much gentler.
"Is it convenient for Mr. Hanyu Ibuki to come and see me? I have something very important to ask him."
"Mr. Hanyu's words, he was accidentally injured not long ago because he was assisting the police investigation, and he is still in the hospital." The girl's voice was low,
"You can go to Mihua No. 1 Hospital to find him, and I can tell you his bed."
"Then trouble you."
Hanyu Ibuki was injured and was hospitalized. If I remember correctly, he happened to fire two shots at A that day, and the other party was probably seriously injured.
Is this just a coincidence?
Tsujimoto Shito has always been suspicious of Hanyu Ibuki, but this is too strange, the other party almost wants to [I am A on his face].
There are generally two possibilities for this kind of explicit statement. First, Ibuki Hanyu is indeed A, and he deliberately made this attitude in order to let Tsujimoto people predict his prediction; second, Ibuki Hanyu is not A, he is trying to confuse Tsujimoto. Human eyes exist.
Either possibility is tricky
Tsujimoto decided to go to see Ibuki Hanyu's injury first.
"Ding-dong-"
Just as Zhufu Jingguang and Tsujimoto walked out of the door of the law firm, Zhufu Jingguang's cell phone suddenly rang, he picked it up subconsciously, but saw a message from a familiar person on the phone. Short message.
[return. ]
There are only two short words, but just looking at these two words, Zhu Fu Jingguang can make up the other party's rather unhappy expression.
"Hahahahaha..." Tsujimoto couldn't help laughing.
"What, it's a little cute to compromise so quickly this time."
"Is it cute?" Zhu Fu Jingguang was at a loss.
He doesn't seem to get much...
"Go back, I won't need you anymore. Although I don't like driving very much, it's not impossible to drive." Tsujimoto wiped away the tears from his laughter,
"As for that guy A, I'll go see him in person."
"I'm so obsessed with me, if I don't go and talk to him when I'm invited, it'll look like I'm too unsympathetic, right?"
