Chapter 46: Takashima Sae's Reminder

Considering that you still have a female dependent, and there are no buildings around this apartment building that can be compared to the height, we will stay outside the door, please feel free to call us if there is any situation!"

"Ah...... It's hard work!"

Hearing that the two colleagues from the Police Protection Division said that they would stay outside the door, Lin Xiuyi naturally wouldn't do much to keep them. So when he expressed his gratitude to the other party again, Lin Xiuyi focused his attention on the Aso Police Department, which had been waiting on the side.

"Aso-kun, is there any progress on the case?"

"Uh...... I'm sorry, but we're still working on it. But why did you get targeted by the suspect?"

Faced with Kosuke Aso's questioning, Lin Xiuyi fell into contemplation again, thinking of the previous two cases, the suspect had a strong hatred for the police, and Lin Xiuyi felt that he should not have come into contact with a suspect with such a paranoid personality. Therefore, he could only raise his head again, shook his head regretfully and responded:

"Actually, I don't understand this point either! I have not been a member of the Metropolitan Police Department for a long time, and although I have handled many cases, I have never had such a deep grudge against anyone. So...... I felt very strange that I would be the next target of the suspect. What makes me feel even more wrong is that since the murderer has already chosen me as his next target, why should he announce this matter to the Imperial Capital Television Station? In this way, the police will inevitably be on guard, and won't it make it more difficult for the suspect to act?"

……

While Lin Xiuyi was still thinking about the clues of the suspect, a large number of reporters also gathered outside the apartment where Hirata Office and Akemi were located at this time, and all of them came here because of the news from Imperial Capital TV. As one of the parties involved, Akemi's previous scandal with a young bureaucrat at the Metropolitan Police Department once dealt a great blow to her career, and Akemi herself admitted on a variety show that she was indeed in love with each other, but in the end it was only because of the other party's refusal that she ended up without a problem. It's been a long time since this incident, but now it's a topic of media chase with the successive killings of police officers in Tokyo.

Since that episode of Imperial Capital TV, a large number of media have begun to re-collect and sort out relevant information about Lin Xiuyi and Yuanneng Temple. Soon, everyone found a lot of interesting content on Akemi Sonoji's Titter and Facebook. For example, Sakura-no-Sato, an Internet celebrity coffee shop frequented by Akemi and Reina, has many regulars who claim to have seen Lin Shuichi on social networking sites before. And on social media, someone also posted photos of Shuichi Hayashi and Akemi watching the Japanese barista contest held in Hakodate together not long ago, and appearing at the wedding of a couple in Hokkaido. As more and more such evidence is discovered, Akemi's previous claims that the relationship ended without a hitch seem to be more and more untenable.

Because of Akemi's previous outstanding performance in the "Sea Village" movie, she was evaluated as one of the few female stars of her age who could act for a long time after that. And with the popularity of the "Le Dinner" series, Akemi, who speaks fluent French, has become the object of imitation by many girls. According to previous media investigations, Akemi's father seems to be an executive of a large European aviation manufacturing company, and when he was young, he went overseas because he couldn't stand the overtime culture at home, while Akemi's mother was a well-known French actress and model when she was young. Perhaps it was because she inherited her mother's beauty that Akemi was discovered by talent scouts on the streets of Roppongi when she returned to Japan for a vacation in her early years, and she has become an idol star ever since. After that, he chose to return to China from France to fully enter the idol world. With her outstanding conditions, Akemi quickly stood out among many girl idols and became the most dazzling among them, and finally Akemi won the opportunity to enter the entertainment industry.

Scandals between high-ranking government officials and celebrities in the entertainment industry can be derived from countless versions by those reporters just sitting in front of their computers and thinking about it. Even if the parties vigorously deny it, they have a way to make this matter a real hammer, not to mention that there are indeed many inextricable and inexplicable connections between Akemi and Lin Xiuyi of Yuanneji Temple!

"What are you going to do now, Imperial Capital TV has turned this matter out again!"

In the Hirata office, the agent Takashima Sae asked Akemi with some distress.

"I'm so sorry, Zuo**!"

"So, you just admit that you're still secretly dating Lin Xiuyi, right? Then, you used Ling Nai's relationship to help you cover up. So before, on social media, others would only see that you and Ling Nai had a good relationship, and they wouldn't notice that you had been dating Lin Xiuyi all along, right?"

"Sorry for the trouble you caused......"

Akemi lowered her head and said to Sae Takashima with guilt.

"Akemi-chan, you're not planning to get married and retire after graduating from high school, are you?"

"Huh...... Of course not! And even if you get married, you can continue to work!"

"Oh...... So you really had that kind of plan, did you?"

"I'm sorry!"

Do you know why most of the senior female artists choose to retire after getting married?

……

Hearing that Zuo*** suddenly asked this question, Akemi couldn't help but look at her with some curiosity.

"Do you think it's just because you will inevitably lose some male fans after getting married? Of course not, after all, not everyone can look as beautiful as you? And if it's a powerful senior, fans won't give up their love for her because of marriage. ”

"That'...... Why is that?"

"I'm afraid it's probably because of my husband's family! If you marry a family like a president or a bureaucrat, you will generally not be able to return to work. Because once you come out to act again, others will think that your husband can't support you and has to let you come out to work. I'm afraid there is not a man in this country who wants to be accused of being a man who can't even provide for his wife!"

"Yes...... Is it like this?"

"This kind of thing, others will not take the initiative to admit it. Although Lin Xiuyi is a promising elite bureaucrat of the Metropolitan Police Department, he became a police officer in his 20s and has never been able to get into the police department in his life. But how much does his annual income be? It's only 10 million yen! I'm afraid this figure is the price of a drama you appear in, and if you include the endorsement fee, your income is several times that of his!"

Do you really think that if you come back to work after getting married, Lin Xiuyi will be able to withstand the criticism of the media......? I mean, even if someone takes a picture of you going to the supermarket once, those reporters will take it as evidence of your downfall! Are you really willing to let reporters say that he is a man who can't even support his wife?"
