"......" Miwako Sato thought about it carefully, as if there was indeed such a thing. At the time, she didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a joke that Uehara didn't want to mention.

After all, this man's past romantic debts are here. I didn't expect this to be true?

"Do you think that friend is me?" Looking at his partner's strange eyes, Katsumi Uehara didn't know what she was thinking.

Miwako Sato, who was a little weak-hearted, subconsciously turned her head, although she didn't answer, but this gesture already said everything.

"Come on, let's introduce me, this is Officer Sato from the Metropolitan Police Department's Search Section." Ryuji Kawamura slowly sat down with his pregnant wife in his arms, and became an introducer with a smile: "Uehara doesn't need to be introduced, you have known each other before." After ending the debate with his partner, Katsumi Uehara, who heard the words, said with a little emotion: "It's been a long time, Noriko Nagayama." ”

"Long time no see, Katsumi Uehara." Her beautiful face was filled with the brilliance of maternal love, and a smile appeared on the face of a woman named Noriko Nagayama: "I heard that Takaji said that you are already a police officer, congratulations." ”

"It's all virtual, it's all virtual, it's not that I'm tired of running errands every day." Waving his hand indifferently, Katsumi Uehara stared at Kawamura Takaji and joked: "You kid didn't even tell me when he came out, look down on me." Hearing this, the latter smiled and raised his hand and scratched the back of his head: "When I first got together with Noriko, you were still checking the eucalyptus, so I didn't think about disturbing you, and then you won't be hospitalized." ”

"It seems to be the same, then I didn't say it." Katsumi Uehara raised his eyebrows, and instantly raised his hand to make a zipper movement.

"Speaking of which, though." Ryuji Kawamura suddenly thought of something, frowned and said strangely, "Do you know where Kunihiko went?" I'm thinking of inviting him to join you as a best man.

"He didn't answer either the phone or the email, he didn't see anyone when he went to his house to look for him, even his family was gone, and he moved?

"Your contradictions haven't come to this point, I still want to take advantage of the opportunity of my marriage to let you sit down and talk."

“……”

"......" Miwako Sato, who heard this question, subconsciously pursed her lips, turned her head and turned her head to the man who was silent for a moment.

"He's dead."

"Oh, he's-huh?!" Ryuji Kawamura, who hadn't reacted for a while, suddenly widened his eyes after a pause for a few seconds, and looked at his friend in disbelief: "What did you say?!" He's dead?! ”

"Ah, sacrificed in the mission. As for his family, they were retaliated against. Playing with the fast child in his hand, Katsumi Uehara said as usual about the fate of Kunihiko Kazukawa and his family.

This time it was Kawamura's turn to be silent.

"It's normal to go undercover as a police officer, and it's normal to die. Didn't I almost die before I became a police officer, if it wasn't for my life? Seeing that the atmosphere in the restaurant fell silent for a while, Katsumi Uehara took a deep breath and came out, raised his hand and patted his friend's shoulder: "Forget it, don't talk about him, just go back and burn him more paper money." But you, what do you mean by inviting me to be your best man, aren't you married yet? ”

"Huh? Uh-huh. Ryuji Kawamura's face was still a little wrong, but he still cleaned up his mood and nodded: "When Noriko was pregnant with a child before, something happened in the store, and the wedding had to be postponed.

Later, the matter was settled, and her belly was getting bigger and bigger, and it was no longer suitable for a wedding. So we simply thought about waiting for the baby to be born before having a make-up wedding. ”

"When is my sister-in-law's due date?"

"The 18th of next month."

"Isn't the wedding going to be a long time?"

"Counting the cultivation preparations and the like, I expect it to be half a year later, so we are now preparing to go through the formalities of getting married first." Kawamura Ryuji, who talked about his life's events, reluctantly removed the negative emotions in his heart, gently squeezed his wife's hand, and smiled reluctantly: "Isn't this thinking of making an appointment for the two of you best men in advance." ”

"I'm fine, I'm available." Katsumi Uehara, who was smiling with his eyebrows, made Ryuji Kawamura sigh: "Noriko, you sit down for a while, and I'll go and get Uehara and Officer Sato's lunch ready." ”

"Hmm." The woman who looked at her husband's expression was a little worried, but she nodded obediently and didn't ask anything.

It wasn't until his departing back disappeared at the kitchen door that Noriko Nagagawa turned around and looked at the two people not far in front of him.

"Kunihiko means...... Is that Kunihiko Kazukawa? The guy I shot with you for the magazine? Noriko Nagagawa hesitated, but still raised her eyes to look at Katsumi Uehara, who nodded.

"It's okay, his own choices are all adults, and he bears the consequences." Katsumi Uehara didn't say much to Noriko Nagagawa, but persuaded her to pay more attention to Takaji Kawamura's emotions recently.

……………………………………………………………………

"The relationship between Ryuji Kawamura and Kunihiko Kazukawa is a little better." After lunch, Katsumi Uehara, who had said goodbye to the Kawamura couple, walked along the periphery of the training base to eat, explaining: "At that time, my focus was more on football and school, and they spent more time together and had a closer relationship.

"However, the world is still really small. I didn't expect Noriko Nagagawa to be with Kawamura. ”

"Judging from the previous title, Noriko Yongchuan should not have been officially naturalized yet, did something happen to their store before?" Recalling the two new characters she made at this meal, Miwako Sato was a little curious: "I've been pregnant for so long. ”

"I don't know, I was still lying in the intensive care unit of the hospital when something happened in his shop. Now that it's settled, there's no need to mention this kind of sadness. Katsumi Uehara shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently: "Compared to this, I'm still more curious about how he could marry a wine girl and get her pregnant." ”

"Ahh Miwako Zuoto's eyes narrowed slightly, and a long note dragged in her mouth: "Are you treating others with yourself?" ”

"Don't talk nonsense, just think he might have a better option, that's all. I have no opinion on the job of Noriko Yongchuan, make money, the economy is down, and I am not chilling. "The economic bubble burst, and the era of the Great Depression of the Heisei economy came.

As a policeman who protects income during droughts and floods, Katsumi Uehara naturally does not have to worry about the corresponding income, not to mention that he also has extra money earned from the European Cup.

But for Japanese society as a whole, the most intuitive feeling of the economic depression is that money is hard to make and unstable.

"You're worried that your friend is trapped?" Miwako Zuoto heard the sound of the strings and knew the meaning of elegance, and raised her eyebrows.

"I don't know, let's go back and check, it's all a friend."

"You're a really strange person, sometimes you always trust someone inexplicably, and sometimes you're wary of people."

"Huh? Have it? ”

"As a senior member of the brewery, Shiho Miyano may have human life on his hands, and you can trust him. Speaking of which, Noriko Nagagawa has filmed magazines with you before, and it's not a one-sided relationship, but you don't trust her. ”

"Well, maybe it's because of the relationship between Ryuji Kawamura and me." Katsumi Uehara smiled: "If you care, it's messy, I have few friends, and if I trust Miyano Shiho, I don't have anything to lose." ”

"Is it related to you......" Miwako Sato pursed her lips, her eyelids visibly twitched a few times, and her ears rang with what her best friend Yumi Miyamoto said to herself before going out, and she couldn't help but take a deep breath and said, "Uehara, can I ask you something?" Katsumi Uehara stopped, turned sideways and wondered, "What's the matter?" ”

"What is the relationship between me and you?"
