"Ishihara-san, we've already been to where you live, it's really a pity!"

After Lin Xiuyi returned to the Metropolitan Police Department, he offered to talk to Ishihara again. So in a simple interrogation room, Lin Xiuyi saw Ishihara again.

There were only three people in the room, Lin Shuichi, Miki, and the suspicious Ishihara Hayato. Miki sits at a table in the corner, using her laptop to record the conversation between Shuichi Hayashi and Hayato Ishihara.

Sitting opposite Lin Xiuyi, Ishihara Hayato looked depressed and haggard, with a stubble on his chin, bloodshot eyes, and a strange smell from the clothes on his body from time to time.

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's words, Ishihara didn't react much, just kept looking at Lin Xiuyi with unfriendly eyes. Lin Xiuyi, on the other hand, deliberately avoided Ishihara's gaze, and he sat sideways in a chair. In a relaxed gesture, he continued to himself:

"Ishihara-san, I think even if you can leave the Metropolitan Police Department, the days ahead will be very difficult! I know that you have borrowed 10 million from a loan shark, and the monthly interest alone is very bearable. I beg your pardon, as far as I know, most of those who have borrowed loan sharks have ended up miserable. These lenders will drain the last drop of blood from the debtor. I've never seen anyone be able to pay off a loan shark. ”

Ishihara heard Lin Xiuyi mention the matter of usury, and his body suddenly shook. Although Lin Xiuyi looked away, he still noticed this.

The reason why he chose to sit in this position was that Lin Xiuyi didn't want Ishihara to think that he was being interrogated, he wanted to make Ishihara feel that it was just an aimless conversation.

During his time at the Metropolitan Police Department, Ishihara was bombed by the Shinki Police Department every day, although no lynching was used. But those guys weren't going to give Ishihara a good look. This time, Lin Xiu did the opposite, and adopted a gentle attitude to interview Ishihara. It is also hoped that Ishihara can let down his guard in front of Lin Xiuyi under fear and pressure. The hand of good cop + bad cop is the best skill of interrogating prisoners in the Metropolitan Police Department.

The reason why Lin Xiuyi and Ishihara have a more in-depth conversation now is because he thinks that he has a certain understanding of Ishihara and already has a certain grasp. If you don't even have confidence in yourself, just thinking about using coercion and intimidation to get Ishihara to open his mouth is completely trying his luck.

At the last meeting, Lin Xiuyi took advantage of a loophole in the judiciary to successfully turn a 48-hour assisted investigation into a long-term detention. And now, with sufficient evidence for some of the thefts, Ishihara has no possibility of leaving the Metropolitan Police Department at all. The change of situation made Ishihara gradually fall into the disadvantage in the contest with Lin Shuichi. As the dominant party, Lin Xiuyi in turn took the initiative to release kindness to Ishihara, which would cause a strong emotional impact on the prisoner.

"Ishihara-san, to be honest, I've only been a police officer for a few months. But in the past few months, I have seen too many prisoners of all kinds. Privately, I often feel that if I hadn't come to the Metropolitan Police Department, I wouldn't have seen so many different people walk into the tragedy of life. Of course, among the prisoners I came into contact with, there were those who committed great treachery and evil. However, it is more common people who have accidentally embarked on the wrong path. Their lives weren't supposed to be like this. ”

Lin Xiu looked at the clock on the wall, it seemed that it was already lunch time. He whispered to Miki, who was sitting in the corner doing the recording work, stood up, and whispered a few words in her ear. Then Miki left the room, and Aizawa walked in from the outside, continuing Miki's record-keeping work.

Lin Xiuyi picked up the paper cup in front of Ishihara, poured out the tea that had become cold inside, poured a new cup of hot tea for Ishihara, and then placed it in front of Ishihara.

"Ishihara-san, we once went to Kanagawa to investigate some of your past affairs, and you were also an ordinary person with dreams, and even entered Koshien when you were in middle school, but then you had to give up your dream because of an injury. After graduating from high school, you opened a clothing store, and it is said that although the business is not good, it is not a problem to cope with normal life. We once took the liberty of investigating your reputation among your neighbors, and you can tell that you are a very popular person among your neighbors. However, for some reason, you became a member of the violent group Tsurumi Gumi, and then you started helping the Tsurumi Group sell stolen goods, and you went to jail for it!"

When he said this, Lin Xiuyi saw that Ishihara finally relaxed a little. He began to move his arms slowly to reach for the cup on the table. Then slowly raise your arm, bring the cup to your lips, and take a gentle sip.

At this moment, Miki, who had just left, returned to the room, and he replied a few words in Lin Xiuyi's ear. Lin Xiuyi nodded at Miki. Then Miki took over the recording work again. Aizawa left the room.

"It's time for lunch, I didn't expect us to talk for so long all at once! I'm sorry you've been at the Metropolitan Police Department for so long. I didn't have any good food for you. However, please understand that we have a rule here that you cannot give too good food to those who are suspicious, because this will inevitably lead to the suspicion of inducing confessions. However, we still have something special prepared today, although it is not of high value, but it is still a piece of our heart. ”

The door to the room was pushed open, and Aizawa walked in with a cardboard box, and after getting Lin Shuichi's approval, he placed the box on the table. The box has a very simple appearance, just the badge and name of the store. Lin Xiuyi personally opened the box for Ishihara. What was presented inside surprised Ishihara. He raised his head and looked at Lin Xiuyi.

"I bought Uyo-yaki and Daifuku Cake near the Ningyo-cho town of RBBASHI, and the Ichokata-yaki and Daifuku Cake there are also specialties of Tokyo, and I consulted with the prison guard who used to take care of you when I was in the Yokohama Detention Center, and he said that you once received a package from Tokyo, which contained Fish-shaped Yaki and Daifuku Cake except for some books. You were happy about it for a long time at the time. I guess these things have brought you some encouragement and comfort in your dark stage of life......"

Looking at Lin Xiuyi's encouraging eyes, Ishihara's eyes suddenly flashed with tears, and he hesitantly stretched out his hand and grabbed a fish-shaped grill, these fish-shaped grilles were all bought by Aizawa just after he went to RB Bridge, and there was still the residual temperature that had just been baked.

Ishihara gently took a bite of the fish-shaped yaki, the warm taste, crispy shell, and soft and glutinous bean paste all brought Ishihara great comfort, and Ishihara's tears couldn't stop dripping down his cheeks and falling to the ground. He sniffed his reddened nose for a moment, and then said softly in an almost imperceptible tone:

"Delicious...... Thank you very much, officer...... Really delicious......"
