Takagi Wataru tried hard to catch up, but after all, he started too late. In the end, he was a few beats too slow and could only watch the robber rush into an alley ahead.
However, after recalling the terrain here, Officer Takagi's eyes suddenly brightened up again: after passing the alley, there is a park on the opposite side. It is not easy to hide in such an unobstructed place - even if the criminal is temporarily out of sight, there is still hope.
Catch up!
So he also plunged into the alley and ran to the opposite side.
However, it was different from what I imagined. When I arrived at the place, I looked up and saw that there were no bag snatchers running wildly within my field of vision. There was only a short old man lying on the ground.
The old man seemed to have been knocked down. He was getting up in pain while picking up the glasses that had fallen beside him.
Officer Takagi ran over quickly: "Are you okay?"
"Takagi, wait for me!" Behind him, another person chased him out of the alley with a huff. When Takagi turned around, he found that it was his colleague, Police Officer Chiba.
This chubby colleague obviously saw the robbery scene just now, but he was further away than Officer Takagi and also lost track of the prisoner.
At this time, the two brothers and sisters looked at each other and turned their attention to the old man on the ground: "Old man, did you see a man wearing a helmet running past here?"
The old man wiped his glasses and put them on. He did not disappoint the two policemen and provided a rather crucial clue: "After the guy wearing the helmet knocked me down, he ran towards the toilet."
The two police officers quickly turned their attention to the restroom. The two trotted over, and when they were almost there, Officer Chiba suddenly noticed a pile of things thrown under the bushes next to them.
"Helmets, jackets, suitcases, and gloves..." He counted them one by one. "They are all the clothes of the robber just now!"
Officer Takagi nodded solemnly and looked at the public toilet nearby: "It seems like what the old man said, the guy threw the things down and hid in the toilet - let's go in and take a look!"
The two of them entered the toilet carefully. When they glanced around, they saw no one, only a few closed cubicles.
Officer Takagi did not enter rashly. He shouted loudly: "We are the police, and we are already surrounded here! - We saw the scene of you robbing the bag, you can't escape, come out honestly!"
Robber in the toilet: "!"
Passerby in the toilet: "?"
Calvados, who passed by this park while shopping and just wanted to go to the toilet: "...?"
…
one minute ago.
When the two police officers were chasing the robber, Toru Amuro followed Officer Chiba and arrived at the scene in a low-key manner.
While Officer Takagi and Officer Chiba were busy counting the clothes under the bushes, Amuro glanced at them and quietly walked around to the other side of the public toilet.
——There are two policemen watching from the front, so there is no problem. But in Toru Amuro’s impression, there are some ventilation windows in the toilet cubicle.
Although their size makes it difficult for an adult to climb out of them, if the robbers discarded key evidence through the windows, or if the robbers themselves have some wonderful skills such as bone-shrinking bows, then these transom windows are likely to become the source of this case.
Captured vulnerabilities.
Idle time is also idle. It is rare to encounter a robber who dares to rob near his detective agency. Toru Amuro does not mind playing a role as an enthusiastic detective and teaching the robbers what the dangers of the world are.
…
I stood calmly on the side of the public toilet. After waiting for a short time, two policemen shouted from the door of the toilet: "You can't escape, come out!"
Immediately afterwards, as Toru Amuro expected, there was movement in one of the windows - the guy in the cubicle stepped on the toilet seat and climbed to the air window, and was about to throw a cold metal object out.
Toru Amuro smiled and looked at this unprovoked "robber", and was about to say hello to him with malice... However, when he looked closely, he suddenly saw a familiar face.
Person in the toilet: "..."
Toru Amuro: "...?"
"You..." Toru Amuro looked at this guy who looked like an organizational cadre from left to right. Thinking about the numerous blood debts on the other side, the number of weapons on the other side, and then looking at the current situation, he couldn't be sure for a moment.
"You...changed your career and became a bag snatcher?"
Calvados: "..."
silence.
An unspeakable silence spread in the public toilet.
Two seconds later, a sniper silently retracted his hand that wanted to throw the gun, silently sat back on the toilet, and silently covered his face.
There is no mistake, every song is published and every content is read one by one!
... He has obviously left that ghost place in Osaka and returned to Tokyo, but why are the police and the case still pursuing him?
What's worse is that he can be embarrassed by himself quietly, but in fact every time he is embarrassed, his colleagues who know his true identity will see him - first with vodka, and now with the black guy outside, it's like he was covered by something.
It's like a curse.
For a moment, Calvados wished that what he was carrying was not a pistol, but a bomb. In this way, he could tear off the lead, die with everyone present, and drown his dark history forever.
In the fierce light of fire.
...but in fact, he only had a mini pistol with very average power. Even if he was lucky enough to kill all the passers-by, the police and himself, he did not have the confidence to use the limited bullets to kill Bourbon, a witness to the dark history.
——That's right, as a sniper in the organization, a rare tool-handling person. Calvados knows far more cadres than ordinary cadres.
Coupled with Bourbon's obvious external features, he recognized it at a glance: the guy outside who witnessed everything was actually his colleague.
...Huh? Wait, colleague?
Listening to the police's urging at the door of the public toilet, Calvados suddenly had an idea and found a way that seemed to get him out of the predicament.
——Anyway, we have already embarrassed someone, and that is the end of the matter. Why not just throw the gun to Bourbon and let this colleague help him keep the gun?
Although the relationship between the two is very ordinary, the current police situation and the organization's confidentiality principle, Bourbon should know which is more important.
Coupled with the painful experience of "if you hide it, you will lose it" a while ago, the more Calvados thought about it, the more attractive the bourbon outside the window became.
Thinking this, he gritted his teeth and shamelessly climbed onto the toilet again.
I was about to throw the gun to Bourbon, but when I took a closer look, I saw that the window was empty and there was no one there.
...that guy actually left!
Calvados: "..."
The organization cadre, who was in a state of ups and downs, twitched his eyes slightly, and made a sharp note to Bourbon: This bastard lone wolf who has no unity at all and only knows how to protect himself! Don't let me meet you next time!
While thinking about it, he could only grit his teeth and throw the mini pistol that had been wiped with fingerprints towards the grass in the distance.
