Seme Bar

12:30

When the door of the bar was pushed open, the simple hanging bell above jingled.

The drowsy boss, who was sitting at the counter with one hand on his head, suddenly woke up and looked at the door with sleepy eyes.

He raised his hand to rub his eyes and looked at the visitor. He thought he would meet another idle gangster at noon, but he didn't expect it to be a young man with a clear face.

This man was wearing a straight suit that fit his body shape, and his excellent proportions were highlighted. He sprayed some gel water on his forehead to give his hair a basic shape, and his short black hair was styled in a decent and elegant manner.

As soon as this young man walked in, the boss could tell that this young man was definitely different from the ones he usually saw.

He leaned forward involuntarily and nodded politely towards the man.

"What does this guest want to bring?"

The young man stood still in front of him, his light gray eyes gently raised, and his long eyelashes turned up, just in time to cover the warm yellow luster of the wall lamp on the counter.

"I'm here to get something." The man said, his voice as calm as his face.

"Not long ago, a person named Chuanjiang should have left an envelope here."

The bar owner was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Oh, I remember, I remembered -"

The last time Kawae Kaoru came over to pay back the drink, he paid two 10,000 yen bills and did not ask him for change. Instead, he left a brown paper envelope and asked him to keep it for him, saying that someone would come and pick it up later.

While he was rummaging through the drawers on the counter for the envelope left by Kawajiang, he secretly looked at the young man in front of him with an elite temperament. He couldn't help but wonder what the relationship between this man and Kawajiang was.

Friend, brother, or...?

Having known Chuanjiang for so long, he also knew that the boy had some niche hobbies.

The guy who treated him later looked like a human being, could it be because he was with the person in front of him...

"Here you go." The boss handed the envelope over, with a slightly ambiguous smile on his face.

The young man glanced at him, not sure if he noticed the change in his expression, but his expression remained calm when he took the thing, and he thanked him gracefully.

…

After leaving Seme Bar, Noboru Imaizumi walked through two small streets and walked for a while back to the Capchi parked on the roadside.

Imaizumi climbed into the driver's seat and slowly opened the upper seal.

This was stored in Seme Bar after he switched to [Second Mode] a few days ago.

In fact, he originally had more convenient and faster ways to deliver these to himself, such as contacting express delivery, etc. But most of these methods require leaving identity information, and he is currently not sure if anyone is watching "Kawae Kaoru"

.

Since "Kawae Kaoru" is a member of that organization, it is best not to have anything to do with the police.

So he had no choice but to use Seme Bar as a medium.

After all, a special place like a bar always attracts all kinds of people, at least people from those organizations will not immediately doubt whether there is any connection between "Kawae Kaoru" and "Imaizumi Noboru".

The cowhide envelope had almost no thickness and was light and there was really nothing inside.

There are only two locks of hair.

One bunch of hair was from Kaoru Kawae's body, and the other bunch was from Tsuneichiro Inoue, the man who died in the rental house on March 19th that day.

When Noboru Imaizumi was investigating "Inoue Logistics Company", he had already found some information about their president, Tsuneichiro Inoue, but that was something posted on the Internet, and it was impossible to clearly judge whether it was true or false. .

——Some things still need to be determined by the Metropolitan Police Department’s database.

He stepped on the accelerator, and the silver-white Captiva was speeding towards the Metropolitan Police Department...

An hour later, Noboru Imaizumi walked into the forensics department's office.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Matsuda Jinpei slumped on the folding chair.

The young man with naturally slightly curly hair had a lifeless face, and there was a thick blue-black under his eyes, and he looked like he was about to ascend to heaven.

After meeting him, Matsuda Jinpei only moved his eyes slightly, and after a while he half-deadly uttered: "Imaizumi police..."

Imaizumi nodded: "What time did you go to bed?"

He remembered that Matsuda had just gone to interrogate the prisoner in the KTV poisoning case. Unfortunately, the prisoner Odagiri Kei was not able to get in. Several police officers took turns to interrogate her, but nothing was pried out of her mouth.

"Seven o'clock in the morning. I haven't even been home since last night... I have never seen such a difficult woman in my life."

Matsuda Jinpei closed his eyes silently and made a calm gesture: "Maybe I am not suitable to stay in the search class."

Imaizumi pulled up the stool next to the young man, sat down slowly, and said, "It's easy to transfer here, but it's very difficult to go back."

Matsuda Jinpei then hummed: "If the mobile team doesn't accept me, it will be a huge loss for them."

Imaizumi smiled.

It can be seen with the naked eye that since the prisoner of the bombing case was arrested, Matsuda Jinpei has become much more talkative and cheerful than when he was first transferred.

He is trying to make his life develop in a better direction.

The two chatted for a while, and then Matsuda Jinpei asked: "By the way, Imaizumi Police, why are you here at the forensics class?"

He came because the Forensics Department would soon produce new physical evidence of the KTV poisoning case, so he came over in advance to take a nap and catch some fish.

"I'm here to ask someone to check something." Noboru Imaizumi only answered.

Seeing that the young police officer did not say much, Matsuda Jinpei also wisely did not continue to ask questions. We are all police officers, and it is completely understandable that some information is inconvenient to be disclosed to others.

"Just rest for a while, Matsuda. You may have to be busy again when the results come out."

Matsuda Jinpei felt that what he said made sense, so he was not polite to him. After responding, he closed his eyes again and continued to take a nap.

Imaizumi stood up and walked softly to the room inside.

After briefly explaining her purpose, a female police officer from the forensics department took the envelope and poured out the two locks of hair.

"Can you identify these two people?" the policewoman asked.

"Yes." Noboru Imaizumi nodded. Seeing that the policewoman's expression was unnatural, he asked again: "Is it against the regulations?"

"That's not true." The policewoman shook her head.

"Detecting DNA is not a big problem, Imaizumi Police. I'm just a little curious..."

"Do you have a girlfriend?" the other party asked abruptly.

Faced with this question, Imaizumi remained silent for a few seconds.

Is there any logical connection between comparing DNA and whether he has a girlfriend?

But he still chose to tell the truth: "...No."

"That's great!" The policewoman jumped up from her seat with excitement on her face.

"We have a sorority party at the Metropolitan Police Department next week, and the female police officers anonymously voted internally for the candidate they most hope to come. Did you know? Imaizumi Police Station, you are in second place——"

"Where's the first one?" Noboru Imaizumi asked.

The policewoman was stunned. She probably didn't expect that a man like Imaizumi Noboru who seemed to be quite enterprising would be curious about who was the first.

"Ah..." She was silent for a few seconds, feeling a little stuck.

She organized the conversation for a long time, and finally answered honestly and cautiously: "Matsuda-kun is the first... Mainly, the main reason is that nowadays girls prefer those who are a little bit bad..."

In short, Imaizumi's warning - you don't look bad enough.

After hearing the implication, Imaizumi couldn't help but chuckle a few times, his light gray eyes filled with a thick smile.

"I know." he said.

Seeing that Inspector Imaizumi actually smiled, and his smile was particularly beautiful, the female police officer in the forensics department was stunned.

"I will go to the sorority party next week." He responded to the other party's invitation.

Under the confused gaze of the policewoman, he politely nodded goodbye and then slowly exited the room.

Of course, Imaizumi Noboru was not curious about who was number one because of a man's desire to win.

He was just confirming the authenticity of the comics.

Last night in KTV's new comic extra "The Daily Life of Officer Matsuda", at the end of the final case, there was a scene where Miyamoto Yumi teased Matsuda Jinpei.

The rough line is: "You are the 'Dream of Billions of Girls' at the Metropolitan Police Department, you can't be so impatient with women——"

This rhetoric made Matsuda Jinpei look confused, but the other policewomen accompanying him gathered together and snickered.

Obviously, this corresponds to the fact that "Matsuda Jinpei is number one".

But Noboru Imaizumi had other reasons for agreeing to attend the party.

Because he saw someone talking about it in the comics, people from the Ministry of Public Security also came to attend this sorority.

Jingguang worked in the Public Security Department of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

If you're lucky, you might be able to get some information about Jingguang from the people at the Ministry of Public Security.
