"Xiaoqing, you know that she wants to kill herself, right?"

In the living room, just as Karasuma was about to leave, Keiko Hatoyama spoke again.

In the room at this time, Keiko Hatoyama and the boy were sitting side by side on the same sofa, and Keiko Hatoyama turned her head to look at the boy with a calm expression.

Kokarasuma stood near the door, and after hearing Keiko Hatoyama's words, she instinctively stopped and looked back at the two.

At this moment, the uneasiness in her heart that had just dissipated soared rapidly.

"Hmm."

The boy did not hide anything, nodded, and then added:

"There were a few powdery particles on the rim of her teacup, but where she poured it, I didn't see any condiments that matched the powder.

It can only be speculated that she had anticipated this result when she knew that I was going to come over again to inquire about her case, so she prepared the poison on her body, and took advantage of the time before she got up to pour the tea, and put the poison into her teacup. ”

Hearing this, Keiko Hatoyama slowly looked away, and she lowered her head again and looked at her toes in the socks.

"Now that you know it, why don't you stop her?"

After she brought the tea, until she actually picked up the teacup and drank the poisoned tea, the boy who had already noticed the abnormality had many opportunities to stop her, but he didn't do it, but just watched Kukai Luzi drink the poisoned tea.

Keiko Hatoyama doesn't think she's a kind woman, but she still doesn't approve of the boy's actions.

Indeed, Wajing Luzi killed several people in a row, and the crime was so bad that she finally poisoned herself, and for the ordinary public, she would only say that she deserved it, and she deserved it.

However, the police are different.

As a police officer, even in the face of the most vicious criminals, they cannot do this kind of behavior that instigates or promotes the self-destruction of criminals with their personal inner preferences and preferences.

This kind of mentality is a big taboo for the police.

Because people's hearts are numb, especially for boys who often deal with all kinds of felony cases and deal with all kinds of vicious criminals.

Today, you can not take the life of a criminal as a human life, tell yourself that she deserves it, and feel at ease with it.

Tomorrow, perhaps, in some extreme cases, you will not regard the lives of other hostages as human lives, and gradually become a cold-blooded machine that only acts to achieve its own mission goals.

Human life cannot be weighed in terms of quantity or value, because once you make this trade-off in your heart and make it into a habit, your human nature changes.

This psychological numbness, this inner gap, will be gradually magnified as people break through their bottom line again and again, and become numb again and again.

This is something that Keiko Hatoyama absolutely does not want to see.

"Because she wanted to kill herself, I sensed that it was a strong desire in her heart, so I didn't want to stop her anymore." The boy replied truthfully.

He gave the answer that Keiko Hatoyama expected, but it was something she didn't want to hear,

Since the murder of Aunt Shirakawa a few years ago, Keiko Hatoyama has been faintly aware of the negative changes in the boy.

And today, witnessing the boy sitting and watching Kuwai Luko commit suicide, this worry in Keiko Hatoyama's heart has reached an extreme.

A change that even the boy himself was not aware of was quietly happening in him.

It is true that boys do care about the people around them, and will be anxious for them, worried and worried about them.

But what about other than that?

In everyone but those around him, the boy showed "no discrimination" indifference, and he didn't care about their lives.

The boy's suicide today is the most obvious manifestation of this situation.

Because she has this strong desire herself, I won't stop it.

Yes, this seems to be the boy's choice to respect Michiko Kuwai, but in essence, it is the boy's disregard for the lives of people like Mitsuko Kuwai, who have nothing to do with him.

If today's Kukai Michiko is replaced by Keiko Hatoyama, or by Kokarasuma, can the boys still "respect" their choice so calmly?

Absolutely not.

Not only that, but the boy will do everything in his power to stop it.

Keiko Hatoyama was incredibly convinced of this.

However, the boy was unaware of this, and he didn't even realize what was wrong with his actions.

He only felt that he respected the choice of Kuwai Luzi, so that she could have an ending that she was looking forward to.

The landmine that was planted a few years ago is finally showing its power for the first time today.

More than four years ago, after the murder of Aunt Shirakawa, the boy recovered from his grief with great speed and seemed to have completely pulled himself together.

But only Keiko Hatoyama, who knows the boy's character well, knows that all this has not passed at all, and the boy just buried this mine deep and brewed quietly in a place that outsiders can't see.

Because of this, Keiko Hatoyama and the boy have almost been inseparable since then.

Regardless of her declining physical condition, she went to various crime scenes with him to investigate, and went to college with him.

After Karasuma returned to Japan, she even deliberately guided this optimistic, simple and energetic girl to build a good friendship between her and the boy.

As time passed, Keiko Hatoyama gradually realized that her physical condition was no longer enough to support her to be by the boy's side all the time, so she needed to find someone who was equally suitable to continue to influence the boy for her when she couldn't do anything, and for a long enough time, to subtly remove the mine buried deep in the boy's heart.

Keiko Hatoyama believes that this is the most appropriate course of action, but it will take time.

Of course, she might have been able to use another quicker and more direct approach.

She can use herself as a "shackle" to forcibly change her ...... and bound boys.

Keiko Hatoyama naturally knows how special she has in the boy's heart.

She also knows that as long as she speaks, as long as she speaks-

"Xiaoqing, I hope you can be a good policeman with integrity.

I hope you care about everyone's life, no matter how that person relates to you, whether that person is a criminal, a hostage, or an innocent citizen, I hope you will treat them the same in the future. ”

As long as she said this, something like today's Kusai Road, the boy would never do it again in the future.

But in this way, the mine hidden in the boy's heart is really gone?

To use "shackles" to bind boys, or to use oneself as "shackles", this behavior is both cunning and despicable.

Keiko Hatoyama would rather take a longer time to slowly eliminate the negativity in the boy's heart.

She still has enough time.

She would never do such a despicable act......

Absolutely not.

Yesterday's second chapter was blocked, but it has been modified and lifted, that is, some sensitive words were simply deleted, and then the details on the title were modified, but combined with the previous chapter, it shouldn't be a problem to read...... Tsk, I expected it.
