When Rimi finished telling the story, Gu Xing finished the rice ball.
"Are you still in school now?"
Gu Xing handed Rimi a bottle of canned coffee with unique packaging, "If you only eat rice balls, you'll be thirsty."
Satomi took the coffee and stared at the logo on it for a while.
"I didn't expect that the first time I drank canned coffee in my life, it came from a strange policeman uncle."
Uncle? I'm not a few years older than you.
Gu Xing suddenly felt that the rice balls and coffee no longer smelled good.
Having said that, people in this country really like to drink canned coffee. On average, each of the people in this country drinks about 91 bottles of canned coffee every year. As a result, various coffee manufacturers have also followed suit, and they have developed Beihai, Dongfang.
Various limited editions in both Dudu and Lidu.
Of course, an important reason for the popularity of canned coffee is that it is cheap. Generally, it only costs about 130 yen after tax, and few people can afford it. But Satomi has never drank it, which is evident from the poverty of his family.
"After grandma passed away, Yoshino kept an eye on me and often went to school to cause trouble,"
Satomi held the coffee in her arms and continued:
"Although the teachers and security guards at the school talked to Yoshino alone, it seemed to have no effect. He waited at the school gate before school ended. My classmates even thought that I was engaged in custom business in order to pay off debts... Within a few days,
Those bad students also targeted me and often blocked me in the corner of the school, so I definitely couldn't go to school."
When talking about her own affairs, Satomi became much calmer and her tears gradually stopped.
"I understand the situation," Gu Xing said, "I will try my best to help you."
"Actually, I figured it out," Satomi calmed down now, "You'd better not help me."
"Why?"
"Because it's not as simple as you said,"
Satomi hugged the coffee in her arms tightly,
"If you choose to stand on my side, you will eventually face not only Yoshino, but the Koda loan shark company, and the big shots in the police department and even the headquarters that they often contact behind them. If you insist on going on, you will be at risk.
You may lose your job, and if it gets more serious, your life safety will not be guaranteed."
Gu Xing looked at her strangely. It was very difficult for a little girl who was only seventeen years old to think of things like this.
But from Gu Xing's point of view, he doesn't think that the loan shark company can really have a close relationship with the top brass of the Lidu police. This is a bit alarmist.
"This is my own business, you don't have to worry about it."
"How can I have the nerve to drag irrelevant people into my own trouble?"
Satomi shook her head, "If you must help me, try to introduce me to the special investigation section of the headquarters and be an assistant investigator. In this case, I will have a big tree to rely on, and you don't need to directly confront the loan shark company."
, so you don’t have to worry about all the subsequent troubles.”
"To be honest, I know almost nothing about this special investigation class you mentioned. I only heard about it after the big black hole emerged recently."
Gu Xing said: "Moreover, in our country, the police position does not require taking the national or local civil service examination before being appointed. Let me explain the reason."
"Oh...oh, I almost forgot,"
Satomi slapped her forehead,
"All personnel who have witnessed the Special Investigation Division's handling of cases will forget about it afterwards, so it is normal that you don't understand.
As far as I know, not all staff members of the Special Investigation Section are admitted through examinations, and more depends on individual talent conditions.
What I want to say is, after all, you are also within the police system. If, I mean, if you have any chance to deal with them in the future, you can ask for help - I will never force it."
"How did you know these things?" Gu Xing asked: "Didn't you say that everyone who saw them handling the case would forget it?"
"this,"
After hearing this, Satomi looked embarrassed, "It's really a secret. If the time is right, I'll tell you, okay?"
"Okay," Gu Xing thought for a moment and replied, "I will keep this in mind."
The two of them talked for a long time. Gu Xing looked at his watch and saw that it was almost time for his shift.
"Where do you live now," Gu Xing asked Rimi, "relief station?"
"I hate relief stations. They don't feel like home at all. I can't stay there for half an hour and then leave."
In fact, there were deeper reasons why Rimi didn't want to live in the relief station - first, it was the place where Rimi last saw her grandma, which would inevitably bring back that painful memory.
Secondly, the relief station where grandma took Rimi to is located in Shouding Street in the north of Jing'an District. It is a place specially provided by the government for homeless people in Lidu.
Many of those people come from cities that were engulfed by the tsunami, as well as temporary workers, the unemployed, homeless people, and bankrupt people who were abandoned by their families because they owed loan sharks.
For a long time, they lived in various Internet cafes, game rooms, and coffee shops. However, due to a terrible epidemic a few years ago, indoor venues in Lidu City were closed for a long time, and the government gathered the homeless people there.
Kotobuki Street provides public assistance, social security and medical treatment, and even prepares public bathrooms, canteens, beds, and entertainment rooms for workers.
Although it has been evaluated by some media as a "street of citizen welfare", the scary thing is that anyone who lives in Kotobuki Town will face permanent discrimination in society. Whenever they apply for a job, they will hear such voices
——"Oh, it turns out you live in Kotobuki Town."
It has been reported that of the more than 10,000 people living in Kotobuki Town, only 14 people finally walked out of that humble place permanently.
Satomi is still very young and doesn't want to bury her future there.
"If you don't want to live in a relief station, where else can you live? Yoshino should go to your grandma's house from time to time." Gu Xing said: "If you don't mind, you can live at my place and I will rent a basement for you and I will pay the rent.
Affordable.”
"My grandma's house is also rented," Rimi replied, "but the rent has not yet fully expired. I won't go there during the day, but I can sneak back late at night. In grandma's house, even the ghosts accompanying the three of them,
I also feel very warm.”
"Ghost?" Gu Xing's back felt cold.
"Of course it's my imagination," Satomi said with a smile, "I didn't expect such a dignified policeman like you to be so timid."
Gu Xing thought for a while, then took out some cash from his wallet and handed it to Rimi, "The rent at your grandma's house is about to expire. You can take the money first, pay part of it for rent, and use the rest for food and drink."
"I can't have it." Satomi immediately shook her head.
"how?"
"You said you rented a basement," Rimi said: "Who would choose to live in a cold and damp basement for a normal person with a lot of money? Your life must not be as comfortable and relaxed as you want. I appreciate you renting it in such a tight situation.
You are still willing to support me under certain conditions, and I appreciate your kindness, but I will never accept this money."
Rimi pushed the money into Gu Xing's arms and ran away.
"You haven't told me yet," Gu Xing said loudly, "How should I contact you in the future?"
Rimi ran to a very far place and stopped, turned around and waved to Gu Xing,
"You are a police officer from Jinghai Police Station. If you need help, I will go to you.
Goodbye, uncle! Thank you very much for today!"
After Rimi left, Gu Xing went to Central Park, changed into his police uniform, and continued his shift.
Walking to the entrance of Area F of Central Park, Gu Xing raised his head from time to time and looked at the big black hole in the sky. He always felt that behind the black hole, there was a blurry and chaotic face staring at him. But no matter how many times Gu Xing looked, he could only
I saw a total darkness.
Nothing special happened until I got off work at twelve o'clock in the evening.
The big guys from the Kyoto Metropolitan Police Department’s Special Investigation Section seem to have no results to announce regarding the black hole investigation.
It is worth mentioning that Anda, whose eyes had turned blue and black, finally returned home. It was not because he couldn't bear it anymore, but because he thought that if he wanted to live until the day when the investigation results came out, he had to temporarily extinguish his curiosity.
If you are very angry, it is better to go home and take a rest.
In the early morning, Gu Xing returned to the basement and Xiaodong sent a note.
Gu Xing picked it up and took a look, it read:
[About the bizarre incident caused by Yoshino, an employee of Koda Loan Sharing Company, who caused death due to malicious debt collection]
[At 11:00 in the evening, Yoshino was watching TV programs at home when there was a sudden knock on the door...]
…
At the same time that Gu Xing picked up the note, in the black hole above Central Park, a huge red eye slowly opened and looked down at the earth.
Directly below the black hole, in a makeshift laboratory, a woman wearing a white coat and a mask, who was playing with a complex instrument, seemed to sense something. She stopped what she was doing, ran out of the laboratory, and looked at the sky.
The huge black hole in.
"grown ups,"
The assistant followed her out and followed her gaze to the sky - the black hole was still the same, nothing unusual, "What are you looking at?"
The woman looked at the sky for a long time before she looked back and returned to the laboratory.
"nothing."
