After that night, Fujita Goro did not see Kiyohara Yukiha again.
When he returned to the hall unobtrusively that night, he found that the Nakatsu Police Department was looking for him everywhere.
He quietly stood back in his place, then walked along the wall all the way to the vicinity of the Nakatsu police department, and finally raised his head casually, staring at the painting hanging on the wall there and looking at it seriously.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for the Zhongjin Police Department to automatically discover his traces, and he squeezed through the crowd sweating profusely while saying "rude".
"Fujita......! Where are you hiding? Nishino-kun was still talking just now, I don't know what you're doing, did you run out of the hall!"
Goro Fujita felt a little hot on his face. He coughed and replied pretending to be calm, "...... It's nothing. Just went out to do a round, and there is nothing special about it......"
When he said the words "special circumstances," he stopped suddenly. Because the frightened voice of the maid just now came to his mind, calling out "Miss Noriko", saying that if "Miss Noriko" didn't go back to deal with the situation, it would be too late—
Although he didn't know why after a few years, Qingyuan Yukiye would become the "Miss Noriko" of this old Chinese family, and he didn't know why her status was so important in this family, so important that even if the young master of the family was engaged, she still needed to deal with important matters, but he now understood that it was no accident that she deliberately exposed all this to him.
She didn't want to deliberately anger him or deliberately confuse him, so she chose to appear in front of him tonight. Kiyohara Yukiha would not do such a naïve and thoughtless thing. Her presence, and even the names and requests made to her by those people, must have had some other meaning.
…… So, what about that kiss? Does it mean something else?
Goro Fujita suddenly felt a burst of red ears and hot ears.
Fortunately, the lights lit in this hall are indeed not very bright, and he is standing in the dark, so he still has this kind of confidence, and his gaffe will not be discovered by the Zhongjin Police Department. He cleared his throat and continued, "...... However, I've been thinking about what kind of powerful people this family has offended, so I need to use the big people in the upper echelons of Satsuma to order the Metropolitan Police Department to intervene and guard tonight's engagement banquet?"
The Zhongjin Police Department was stunned. He seemed to pause for a moment before he said slowly, "yes...... Who knows. ”
Hearing such a response, Fujita Goro's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
The kind look on the face of the Zhongjin Police Department that was always smiling disappeared. He said with a serious expression: "...... I don't know what's behind it. Our Metropolitan Police Department only received a notice from above, and the order we got was so simple, and we didn't question the right of those big people above to decide......"
At this, he seemed to suddenly realize something, and raised his eyes to look at Fujita Goro's face, as if he wanted to see something in that young and handsome face.
"So, you have doubts about that. He said, "Do you feel that this matter is not so simple and that there is a need for an investigation?...... However, even if the owner of the house is really threatened, as long as they don't call the police, there is nothing we can do about it......"
He groaned for a moment.
"Speaking of which, though...... How did you notice that something was wrong with something that deserves to be investigated?" he asked Fujita Goro suspiciously, "Nothing happened tonight, and there were no suspicious people waiting to enter or leave the mansion, even if we received such an unclear order from above, but we have not received this kind of secret order once or twice, and not every time there is a need to delve into it......"
He touched his chin and stared at Fujita Goro as if he was interested.
There seemed to be a glint in Goro Fujita's eyes. Then he replied simply, "...... Gut feeling. ”
…… Who are you fooling! The Zhongjin Police Department wants to look up to the sky and roar.
Speaking of which, Fujita has been in the Metropolitan Police Department for more than a year, and with his calm, reliable and sharp style, he has done it from ordinary inspections - well, "elite-level" inspections that are trusted by his superiors (in short, he has not been promoted, he is still an inspector);
But he has never shown that he still has the characteristics of [True Detective]!
The Nakatsu Police Department sighed in a headache.
"If you only look into the case intuitively, how can you convince your strict boss to support your investigation? He said helplessly.
"The incident of the nocturnal murderer has been unresolved for a long time, and there is a lot of pressure from above...... Now you are saying that this old Chinese family, who have a bit of face even in front of His Majesty, is suspicious, and this is simply trying to slap the new government in the face......"
Nakatsu paused for a moment. Then he suddenly lowered his voice, approached Fujita Goro, and said:
“…… Don't make trouble for yourself, Fujita. ”
Hearing this warning-like words, Fujita Goro only raised his eyebrows slightly, and the expression on his face was as calm and calm as ever. That expression hung firmly over his face like an iron mask, cutting off others from peering into the real world inside him.
The Zhongjin Police Department sighed again.
"Even the best knives are easy to break if they are too hard to attack. …… This is the principle of 'too rigid and easy to break'. He changed his eloquent tone of persuasion and said.
Fujita Goro's expression did not move, but an extremely bright light flashed in his eyes.
Maybe it was a word in the Zhongjin Police Department's supplementary words that touched his nerves, and the light in his eyes became extremely sharp in an instant. However, it was only a momentary thing, and he lowered his eyebrows again, hiding the coldness.
"Knives, ......," he repeated as if in a deep voice.
The Zhongjin Police Department smiled bitterly.
"I know that a young man like you, who still has fiery ambitions, might think that a guy like me is already a sleek old man......" he said as if he were a little bitter, and laughed dryly twice as if he was going to play a round for himself.
Fujita Goro narrowed his eyes and didn't speak.
"However, the old man was also a young man with a warm heart back then......" The Zhongjin Police Department seemed to recall something, his eyebrows and eyes relaxed, and he looked at the crowd in the hall in the distance with a smile.
"It's just that young people have been through so many things that they have to grow old like that...... It's become an old man who even thinks he's a little boring, hehehehe. He smiled and rounded back the following words, and turned his gaze back to stare at Fujita Goro seriously.
"Hey, Fujita. He called out Goro Fujita.
Fujita Gorou looked back at him with an inquiring look on his face, as if he was quietly waiting to hear what he would continue to say.
Nakatsu suddenly reached out and patted him on the shoulder.
"You're a pretty good young man...... Well, I'd love to say to you, 'Don't be a boring old man like me,' but if you think about it, isn't the most important thing to be, 'Don't just mess around before you become an old man and lose your chance to become an old man?' ”
Goro Fujita seemed to be slightly stunned.
As if hiding something, Nakatsu laughed and patted him on the shoulder again.
"Our main mission is to kill people in the night, don't forget. …… Whether it's a secret story between the Chinese or the dark side, well, forget it after you've seen it. ”
His round face, which was always smiling, and a pair of eyes, which were usually a little cloudy because of too much drinking, suddenly became sharp.
"This is my advice as a boring uncle. ”
"Well...... Speaking of which, no matter what time of day, nosy people will always get into trouble. You're a nice guy, I don't want to see when you mess with someone you can't mess with. He sighed.
Fujita Goro slowly pursed his lips, still not speaking.
That silence is like a silent insistence and rejection. However, the Nakatsu Police Department knew that what he said, Fujita Goro had already listened to it.
Speaking of which, this guy always does that. Stay in a quiet place, listen carefully to whatever you say, but you won't know if you don't ask.
He's a reliable guy who knows what to do. It's just that the mind is a little stubborn...... From this point of view, it's a little worrying.
It's rare for the Metropolitan Police Department to have an outstanding young man--well, although his age is probably not too young, but a good face is an advantage, and I can't tell that he is an old bachelor who is almost thirty years old; It's a buildable material, so as a boss, I still have to worry about his future more or less, and I hope I don't get rid of the cannon fodder because of the intricate relationship between the big guys on top;
Under the dim light of the hall, Fujita Goro's face was stiff, and although he looked young and handsome, his expression was as upright as ever, almost boring. Of course, as a capable subordinate, his performance is beyond reproach, but as a young man who is still single, his character is simply not a trace of reverie.
…… I'm really worried. The Zhongjin Police Department grabbed his hair, and suddenly remembered that the wife who loved to take care of things at home repeatedly asked him to think of a way - why do these women especially like to care about whether others get married or not after they reach a certain age?!—— so he still tried to say again, which can also be used as a good way to change the topic by the way.
"I said...... Fujita!"
Goro Fujita: ?
"Hehehe...... Don't you really think about getting a wife, I say?"
Goro Fujita: !!
The calm and calm mask disintegrated in an instant, and Fujita Goro showed a slightly stunned look, as if he didn't understand why the topic was so serious from the previous moment [Discussion of Life], suddenly jumped to the current [Discussion of Marriage].
He even had a hard time because of ...... Well, I can call it "embarrassment" or "shame" or something like that, and after a pause, I replied with a solemn face:
"No...... Excuse me, please decline it for ...... moment."
The ears of the Zhongjin Police Department stood up in an instant, and they sensitively captured the sensitive words in his words.
"...... 'temporary'?!"
