"Shhh It hurts, it hurts! Won't you take the medicine lightly, I'm a wounded now, a wounded. Wounded, you know, do you know what that means? ”

Moon Shadow Island Clinic, Dr. Asai's office.

For a while, the huge room was filled with Katsumi Uehara's howl like killing a pig, and although he changed into a white coat and was still holding a disinfection device in his hand, his face was dark, but his movements were not slow at all.

The torn floral shirt was crumpled and thrown into the garbage basket, and the shirtless man who was being disinfected on his back grinned in pain and his facial features danced online.

"You should be glad they didn't have a gun or that it wasn't a blade that hit you, otherwise it would have been more than just a skin wound."

After completing the medicine, the anesthesia took out the medical bandage, and skillfully performed a simple bandage for his friend, revealing a little happiness in and out of his words.

Katsumi Uehara was a little unimpressed: "If they use a gun or a knife, it's a different way of fighting, and you don't know how to be flexible." ”

Masheng, who habitually knotted his bandages, rolled his eyes and didn't speak, got up, took off his gloves and threw them into the garbage basket.

"Huh? No, you changed the bow for me. I'm all gone, will you let me go out with this bow later? ”

"What's wrong, isn't that broken Mitsubishi in Tokyo still pink, what's wrong with the bow." Assan, who had poured himself a glass of water from his teacup, shrugged his shoulders and couldn't help but laugh.

"That's called a macho fan, you don't understand." Katsumi Uehara, who is extremely confident in his own taste, seriously corrected the title: "It's not the same as a girl fan." ”

"Don't talk nonsense here, now let's think about what we should do later, when will your colleagues come back? How long are we going to hide in the clinic? ”

"The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, what else can I do, I'm not a superman, I can wear underwear and rush into the drug dealer's den and surprise all those guys."

Compared to the worried Asatsu, Katsumi Uehara was obviously much calmer, raised his eyes and looked at the clock hanging on the snow-white wall, and said comfortably: "It won't take much time to get from Tokyo to Tsukage Island, and Sato should be almost there." ”

"That's what I'm worried about, and the other side must know that time is pressing, what if someone directly rushes into the clinic and shoots us out regardless of the safety of those patients and nurses?"

The current Asumi has no doubt that the group of people can definitely do such a thing.

"Then we'll go out."

Katsumi Uehara spread his hands, his eyes were clear, and he said solemnly: "As a policeman, I must not allow this kind of thing to happen, so I must be arrested and let that group of people invite us back for an interview." ”

“……”

Asso blinked in shock, thinking that there might be something wrong with the human brain circuit. Since they were arrested left and right, why did they run away so vigorously before?

"The first time is to catch, the second time is to please, and the meaning of this is different."

Perhaps sensing the confusion and incomprehension in his friend's eyes, Katsumi Uehara smiled, got up from the bench and moved his shoulders: "Don't forget, the ultimate goal of you and me is Hideo Kawashima and Tatsuji Kuroiwa from beginning to end, isn't it?" ”

Asa Sangshi lowered his head to drink tea for a moment, frowned, and said, "Wait a minute, what do you mean......"

"Don't you want to catch your family's killer?"

Katsumi Uehara's rhetorical question made Aso fall silent, but the flickering gaze in his eyes undoubtedly said it all.

"Capture the thief and capture the king first, I have no interest in the underground group of minions, and the only thing that can end this drug network is to really arrest Hideo Kawashima and others as the leader.

But the problem is that I don't know them well, and with the power of these two people, it is easy to find out that I am a police officer from Tokyo, and if you deliberately approach them, then it is easy to be wary. ”

After pacing to the desk and casually pulling out a pen from the pen holder, opening a notebook and writing the names of the two targets in the blank space, Katsumi Uehara smiled and drew a circle on the names "Tatsuji Kuroiwa" and "Hideo Kawashima": "In the past six months, I have carefully investigated and collected the personalities of these two people.

"Tatsuji Kuroiwa is a typical politician, so he can quickly become the new village chief after the death of the previous village chief. This kind of person is best dealt with, as long as he understands that my presence is both a threat and a help to him, then he will try to make contact with me personally with a little sincerity;

"As for Hideo Kawashima, he is a very profitable businessman. Although he has always wanted to develop in the direction of politicians, the businessman's interest trading mentality has always limited him, which can be seen from his failure to compete for village chief several times.

"So after a failed arrest, the first thing that came to his mind as a businessman should be to buy me with money, just like he used to buy other police officers.

"With the personalities of these two people, I think they should have met by now, and should have made two or more offers to buy you and me.

"Because the sensitive identity of the Tokyo police will make them feel tricky, and your behavior when you came to Moon Shadow Island three years ago will most likely be interpreted by them as the Tokyo police sent someone to the island to go undercover three years in advance, and the most important thing is that your deliberately disguised identity will cause them to not be able to find the woman [Asai Honesty] in a short period of time, which is one of the reasons why I pulled you in.

Therefore, in their analysis, the rash killing will undoubtedly cause the Tokyo police to be more suspicious of Lunakis Island's methods. Then, under this premise, the buyout becomes a scheme that allows them to reach a consensus.

"This is also the reason why the group of bodyguards will not use guns when they are in the barbecue restaurant, they have been used to enjoying their lives for more than ten years, and they will not want to give up everything they have on the surface and flee unless they have to."

One by one, one by one, Katsumi Uehara's plans and speculations made Aso open his mouth to say something, but in the end he couldn't say anything.

Even his identity as a girl who had been disguised on the island for three years was calculated, and it became a corroboration that could make Tatsuji Kuroiwa and Hideo Kawashima more and more taboo, and he didn't know what to say for a while.

"That's why we had to escape the first time we were arrested, because only then would we have a chance to talk to these two people on an equal footing. If the first arrest is successful, then all that awaits us is torture and threats from drug cartels.

"But if the first time fails, then the second time they will invite us to the negotiating table in various ways and have a face-to-face negotiation. And this is the opportunity for me to get close to them without being deliberate, without making them suspicious and distancing. ”

"But how do you know they're going to want to negotiate next?" Asso asked in a voice as he rotated the teacup in his hand.

"Time, they can't afford to delay. You've been on the island for three years under the guise of your identity, and they'll think you've gathered something, and stealing the ledger is one of the proofs. So I will definitely want to finish my work in one battle, salute first and then soldier. ”

Katsumi Uehara wrote the English word for time on the tip of the pen in his hand, and drew a circle on it: "Negotiate first, and if the negotiation breaks down, start directly." ”
