Chapter 11: A Hurried Morning

"Police Department, I'm to blame for today's incident, I'm really sorry for causing you trouble......" After a few glasses of wine, Miki finally mustered up the courage. She knelt on the tatami mat beside Lin Xiuyi, nodded her forehead to the ground, and asked Lin Xiuyi for forgiveness in the form of apologies.

"Forget it, forget it, I didn't take it to heart, in fact, it was impossible for us to refuse the task set by our superiors at that time, if we really did it, the result would only be worse!" Lin Xiuyi waved his hand and helped Miki up, Miki still maintained a kneeling posture, looking at Lin Xiuyi with a look of shame. And what Lin Xiuyi said was indeed in his heart, the situation at that time, I am afraid that the small special search department would not be able to refuse Minister Sato's order at all, and if he disobeyed the order, the situation would only be worse. Counting it, Miki took the initiative to ask to take over Kuroda's case, I'm afraid it's the most appropriate choice.

Lin Xiuyi poured a glass of beer for Miki with his own hands, saying that he really didn't mean to blame Miki, and Hanagata and Aizawa, who were present, also hurriedly persuaded him, which made Miki gradually calm down his emotions.

"Police Department, why was the Special Search Department suddenly assigned to be in charge of Kuroda's case, didn't you receive any news in advance?" Hanagata asked curiously as he toasted Lin Xiuyi.

"I really didn't know anything about it, we had been in charge of some trivial work before that, to be honest, when I received a call from the counselor of Zhongyuan, I had a sense of foreboding......" Lin Xiuyi raised his wine glass depressedly and drank all the wine in the glass.

"Xiu Yijun, I'm afraid things are not that simple? If you just want to make it difficult for the special search department, the Metropolitan Police Department will not ask all departments to fully cooperate with your work. Even our 2nd Department has received an order from Section Chief Oiwa to fully cooperate with your work. I heard that ......" The Kuwashima Police Department, which took over Lin Shuichi's work in the Sexual Investigation 2 Department, suddenly lowered his voice, and then looked at the surrounding environment to make sure that no one was paying attention to this side before continuing:

"I've heard that even the Ministry of Public Security has received a similar order......"

"How could it be, how dare we search for it...... How dare you give orders to the Ministry of Public Security!" Lin Xiuyi was surprised and almost squirted out the wine.

"So, Xiu Yijun, I'm afraid this time it's really not so simple to be handed over as a scapegoat. But speaking of which, this Kuroda Shoji is really difficult to deal with, and after the Tokyo subway bombing, the National Police Agency failed to catch Kuroda with all the strength of the whole country. This time, Kuroda is determined to do a big job, and the situation of the special search department is really not good," Kuwajima Police said worriedly.

Lin Xiuyi was extremely depressed since he received the order this morning. He couldn't figure out what taboo he had committed again, and why he was suddenly assigned by his superiors to take charge of Shoji Kuroda's case. Just a few days ago, the Special Search Department received an invitation from the Kuwajima Police Department, so there was a party tonight. The Kuwashima Police Department's speculation is still very reasonable, and this time I am afraid it is not a simple scapegoat. Otherwise, the Metropolitan Police Department would not have asked other departments to fully assist the special search department. But what went wrong, Lin Xiuyi really wanted to know.

"No matter what, our 2nd Department will always be a close partner of the Special Search Department! If there is a need, don't be polite, even if you open your mouth......" Kuwashima Police Department happily promised.

"Senior Kuwajima, thank you very much!" Lin Xiuyi took Miki and bowed his head to the Sang Police Department to solemnly express his gratitude, and the Kuwashima Police Department and Hanagata and Aizawa also hurriedly returned the salute.

……

After coming out of the tavern, Hayashi walked the streets of Tokyo alone. was blown by the cold wind outside, and his mind suddenly became a lot of trouble.

"I didn't expect the leisurely life to end so soon. From tomorrow onwards, we must work harder, and we must bring Kuroda Shoji to justice as soon as possible!" Lin Xiuyi cheered himself up in the bottom of his heart.

……

Drinking alcohol in moderation helps you get a good night's sleep, and you can quickly forget your worries even when you're in a bad mood. As soon as Lin Xiu got home, he fell on the tatami mat in a daze, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already the next morning.

Seeing that he slept on the floor without even taking off his clothes, Lin Xiuyi secretly laughed that his alcohol consumption had actually deteriorated. He lifted his hand to check the time.

"Oops...... Probably not!"

Lin Xiu was suddenly startled when he saw the time, how did he do it, he was almost late and woke up. What's even worse is that there is also an intelligence analysis meeting on the Kuroda case this morning, and as the person in charge of this case, I can't appear in front of everyone with a smell of alcohol, this is miserable!

Lin Xiuyi hurriedly got up from the ground with both hands and feet, and took off his clothes everywhere. Then he rushed into the bathroom naked.

"Damn...... I didn't boil hot water, forget it, fight for it!"

Lin Xiuyi carefully turned on the shower, and the water flowing from it was cold to the touch. Lin Xiu gritted his teeth one by one and jumped into the cold water. There was an instant howl like a pig in the bathroom.

Ten minutes later, Lin Xiuyi rushed out of the room without waiting for his hair to dry completely.

"Good morning, Xiu Yikun!"

"Ah...... Good morning!" Lin Xiu went out one by one and happened to meet Nagao Jingzi, who also had to go to work. After the two exchanged good morning, Lin Xiu turned around and was about to leave.

"Shuichi-kun, are you going to take the subway?" asked Keiko Nagao in a hurry.

"I'm sorry, I'm afraid I won't be able to go to work with you today!I need to get to work earlier for some work matters......" Lin Xiuyi said apologetically, and then turned around and ran again!

Actually, what I want to say is that I also have work to go to Sakurada Gate today, and we can go to the same car ......" Nagao Keiko said gently.

"Yes, that's so thankful!" Lin Xiuyi touched his hair embarrassedly, and as soon as he got started, he found that his hair was actually a little frozen because it was not completely dry.

"Actually, you can blow dry your hair before you go out, after all, the time taken by car is much shorter than the subway ride. Jingzi saw Lin Xiuyi's embarrassed appearance, and hurriedly persuaded him.

Lin Xiuyi returned to the house at this time, and Jingzi also followed. Lin Xiuyi's room was a little messy, he smiled embarrassedly at Jingzi, and then walked into the bathroom and picked up a hair dryer.

Keiko sat on the tatami mat in the room, looking around at Lin Shuichi's residence. There wasn't much in the room, but it was clear that it hadn't been cleaned in a while. There are also some beer cans and food packaging boxes in the corner.

"Is this where the FBI's highly regarded 'detectives' live?"
