After experiencing Fujino's bizarre life and death crisis, the police officers involved formed an extraordinary wartime friendship, except for the three weird investigators.
Soon after, because Fujino never appeared in any corner of the country, Fujino's bizarre incident was reported to the National Police Agency, and finally the case was officially closed at the National Police Agency.
As expected, the colleagues in the Criminal Division decided to have a group dinner to celebrate the successful resolution of the first bizarre murder case involving all members of the Criminal Division, and to celebrate Gu Xing's escape from death. The dinner also invited three bizarre investigators who were considered outsiders, and
Tomoko, Seiko, and Chiyo participated.
Bai Niao Police Department supplement personally initiated it, and Gu Xing and Anda organized and organized it.
Tonight is the day for dinner.
As one of the specific organizers, Gu Xing naturally had to rush to the hotel in advance to prepare.
Before leaving, he thought of Chiyo.
Chiyo's invitation to Shiratiao was directed by Gu Xing.
When this task was handed over to Gu Xing, he hesitated for a moment. He had originally planned to keep a distance from Qianyo in the near future, but it turned out that it had only been a few days...
Moreover, since the Fujino incident, Chiyo has almost cut off contact with Gu Xing.
Even if they happened to meet in the basement passage, or were forced to meet when they opened the door together, Gu Xing greeted her, Chiyo would only respond with a slight nod, and quickly walked away silently.
Later, Gu Xing even discovered that Qianyo gradually mastered his travel patterns and deliberately avoided these time points, so that for a long time, the two people lived next door but could not even see each other.
As expected, Chiyo declined the invitation from the Criminal Division. This was not beyond Gu Xing's expectation.
Tonight, before heading to the restaurant, Gu Xing sent another text message to Chiyo:
"Are you sure you don't want to go to the dinner party tonight? The Holy Son will go."
The reason why Gu Xing mentioned Seiko specifically was because after experiencing Fujino's weird incident, Seiko and Chiyo unexpectedly discovered that they had similar personalities. They always had endless things to talk about when they were together, and they often met up to go shopping and watch movies together after work.
It was often the Holy Son who came to the basement to find Chiyo and then went out together. When the Holy Son passed by Gu Xing's house, he always said hello to Gu Xing.
In this way, Shengzi and Gu Xing became more familiar with each other.
And Chiyo was deliberately avoiding Gu Xing. So, three people, two doors, going in and out, stumbling, there was always something not quite right.
After a while, Chiyo sent a text message back to Gu Xing: "I have to learn about figures tonight. Please apologize to everyone for me."
…
After sending the text message to Gu Xing, Chiyo took a long breath.
What was placed in front of Chiyo was a piece of Lidu Evening News that had been folded repeatedly. On the column for rental advertisements, Chiyo had drawn several horizontal lines to mark the column.
Chiyo called the contact numbers of these rental houses one by one and found out that they were either too far away from where she worked, or the rent was too expensive, and Chiyo couldn't afford them given her current financial situation.
Chiyo folded the newspapers neatly and put them on the other side.
No matter what, we still need to find a way to move out of here as soon as possible. Otherwise, something big will definitely happen.
She needs to learn how to save money. Long Yi's motorcycle is temporarily closed, and the gas money is not enough.
You also need to learn painting knowledge as soon as possible, and it is best to find a job related to figure design to earn some living expenses.
In a country like this where animation is popular, the animation-related figure industry continues to flourish. A limited edition figure can easily be sold for more than 100,000 yen. As long as you can find a bite to eat in this industry
, you don’t have to worry about your life after Chiyo.
Thinking of this, Chiyo took out a thick reference book from the drawer and studied it carefully.
After a while, the phone sounded the text message notification tone again.
"Is it Gu Xingjun?"
No, Gu Xingjun has always known propriety and will never get into trouble again and again.
But... what if it's him? If he's so kind, it's hard to keep refusing...
Chiyo hesitated and finally picked up the phone.
The person who sent the text message was the Holy Son——
"Ouchi-chan, are you going to the dinner party tonight?"
Chiyo breathed a sigh of relief and replied: I can't go, I'm really sorry.
Holy Son: Ah...I'm looking forward to drinking with you. Will Gu Xingjun come?
Chiyo: We have already set off, so feel free to go see your sweetheart, haha.
Holy Son: What nonsense are you talking about... I was also forced to attend the dinner party!
…
When Gu Xing rushed to the Internet-famous charcoal grill restaurant called Iwai, Anda was already sitting in the booth and ordering a meal, looking quite lonely.
"You guy, why did you come here? Huh..."
Anda looked behind Gu Xing, "Why don't you see Qianyo?"
"Oh, Chiyo said that she is not feeling well, so I'm afraid she won't be able to come tonight, and she asked me to apologize to everyone."
"Where's Crow? Didn't you say you wanted to invite me personally?"
"Oh... don't mention it!"
Anda was lying on the table, in a state of despair, "The crow didn't answer my calls at all, and the text messages I sent were ignored. I only found out after asking Tomoko that the crow rejected the invitation. It's really no surprise."
"Ha ha,"
Gu Xing couldn't help but gloat and applaud, "How wonderful, An Dajun's courtship journey may turn into a marathon."
"More than that!"
Anda slapped the table and raised his head, "It's not just a marathon, it's also a marathon-length pursuit. My opponent is a powerful marathon champion. I'm a trash, a weakling, but I will never give up easily."
After reluctantly finishing his words of encouragement, Anda didn't seem to want to stay on this topic for too long, so he asked Gu Xing: "Didn't the White Bird Police Department say that they would also invite Red Shirt and Frogman? Will they come?"
"When I invited Tomoko, I also asked Tomoko to contact me. Just now Tomoko replied and said that she would definitely come, but Red Shirt and Frogman haven't given a definite reply yet."
"Don't think too much," Anda waved his hand, "Those weird investigators are so superior that they have to be called adults. How could they attend the dinner party of our little criminal class?"
"Yes," Gu Xing nodded in approval, "Didn't Crow also refuse? At least he refused very simply."
"Asshole! How can you compare the crow with those two mentally disturbed freaks? Don't fight me."
Two young men who entered the Criminal Division of Jing'an Police Station in the same batch argued mindlessly for a while, each feeling relieved that they had not seen for a long time.
To be honest, Gu Xing has mild social phobia.
There were so many different dinner parties in Benzi Country that there was almost no way to escape, and Gu Xing really felt irritable.
Especially the workplace dinners in this book are very particular. Although it is not a mandatory requirement to go to a department gathering like this, you can never refuse it easily.
Many working professionals rarely attend workplace gatherings due to social fears, often leaving the impression that their bosses and colleagues are unsociable and difficult to control, and their future in the workplace becomes uncertain.
However, Gu Xing was happy to participate in today's dinner.
This was not because his near-death escape was one of the themes of this dinner party, but because he had experienced such a tense and depressing weird event. If he couldn't drink a lot of wine to relieve his stress, even if Gu Xing was reserved by nature and had always been emotionally stable, it would be inevitable.
It will cause some problems.
When the appointment was approaching, apart from Tetsuo who was still in the hospital with a bandage, his colleagues from the Criminal Division arrived one after another. The police officer Shiratori, Tomoko, and one of the oldest colleagues arrived as the last batch.
There was no news at all about Red Shirt and Frogman. As Anda expected, they did not plan to attend the dinner.
After the colleagues arrived, they consciously took their seats according to their rank, years of employment and age. The upper seats were reserved for Shiratori and Tomoko, and the others were arranged in order from high to low. Everyone knew very clearly where they should sit. It was almost like
The set program is normal and there are no errors.
The workplace hierarchy in Benzi has always been strict. There are often clear boundaries between superiors and subordinates in the unit, and there is little emotional exchange.
The only place where superiors and subordinates can put down their dignity and have a heart-to-heart talk is over a dinner party. At this time, even the most stern boss will become amiable.
Shiratori Police Department added that although he is younger than many people in the Criminal Division, in order to be more conducive to work, he will put on a very serious face on weekdays. Today, he finally no longer has to put on a stinky face, and his smile is no longer
Nothing but cordial and kind.
"Dear colleagues,"
Bai Niao asked Gu Xing about the status of the people attending the dinner, nodded, with a smile on his face, and raised the wine glass that had been placed on the table:
"This bizarre case is really a crisis within a crisis. If you are not careful, someone will sacrifice their life and there will be no recovery.
However, our colleagues in the Criminal Division of Jing'an Police Station faced the severe test. No one quit on their own initiative, no one was afraid, and no one dropped the ball. They successfully won this tough battle. I do it for everyone and for myself.
I am extremely proud of our glorious collective, the Criminal Division of Jing'an Police Station!
Come! With this glass of wine, let us pray for Gu Xingjun’s safe return, for the courage of Gu Xingjun and Miss Qianyo to sacrifice themselves, for the three adults of the investigation section of this department, and for the efficient command and powerful guidance of Miss Tomoko, and for the smooth conclusion of this case.
,cheers!"
