Tetsuo's face was haggard, his eyes were red, and he knelt down, "It's really hard for me to speak."
"What are you talking about..."
Several colleagues quickly stepped forward to help Tetsuo, but Tetsuo continued to kneel on the ground.
To be honest, when things have reached this point, it is impossible to say that there is no one in the Criminal Division who does not resent Tetsuo at all. There are even more people who have complaints in their hearts.
At least, when I see Tetsuo, I will always think about why I was involved in such a desperate and bizarre case, and my face will become ugly.
But no one has ever complained about Tetsuo in public. The most they said was to blame themselves first, which may have brought Tetsuo even more pressure and guilt.
Tetsuo lay on the ground with a painful look on his face and kept saying sorry.
"Never say that,"
Someone enlightened Tetsuo, "It's us who should really feel guilty..."
Alas, even now that we have reached this point, I am not afraid to tell you that when you were shot and fell to the ground in the basement of the Nara apartment, I really wanted to rush to save you, but facing a monster like Fujino, I really didn’t
The soles of my feet were weak and my whole body was shaking.
Thanks to Gu Xingjun rushing to rescue you at the last moment, otherwise I really don’t know how long I would have felt guilty..."
"Yes, Tetsuo-kun... why are you kneeling on the ground?"
"Are you doing this to force us to have a disembowelment to apologize?"
A crowd of people surrounded Tetsuo and began to persuade him.
"Everyone,"
Tetsuo's tears suddenly flowed down uncontrollably,
"It was me who harmed you, I truly am the one who harmed you.
It's me, deep down in my heart, who has been complaining about you, why you have clearly received my kindness and even saved your life, but still refused to help me when my life was in danger.
Is it because I cherish my life or am I afraid of death? But when I saved everyone, I didn’t consider my personal safety at all.
I knew very well that I shouldn't have such thoughts in my mind, and I also understood the principle of showing kindness without repaying it. I tried my best to suppress it, and every night in the hospital bed, I desperately thought about the warm scenes when everyone came to visit me.
But subconsciously, the uncontrollable thoughts of complaint and even some resentment will grow like weeds, which cannot be cut off...
Hidero, Ryozo, Naoki, Yukio...and my best friend Takumi. It wasn't until Takumi disappeared yesterday that I suddenly realized that the order of their deaths was almost the order of the grudges in my heart from heavy to light...I just discovered
He turned out to be the source of this disaster...
sorry Sorry!"
Tetsuo covered his face and continued to kneel on the ground, "This thought has been suppressed in my heart. From the time it sprouted to growing into a big tree, its roots have grown deep into my heart, tingling my nerves, but I have nowhere to go."
Telling, it was unspeakably painful, maybe it was just like that that the weird one noticed...
This is how I feel. I tell you frankly today, and I don’t ask for your forgiveness. I just feel that I will never be able to face you and the families of the missing persons with a peaceful attitude in the future..."
At this time, a colleague suddenly patted Tetsuo on the shoulder and said, "Tetsuo, stop talking."
Faced with Tetsuo's sudden confession, everyone present felt really complicated. They wanted to persuade Tetsuo, but they didn't know how to speak.
But the strange thing is that as Tetsuo poured out his words, it seemed as if an invisible cloud dispersed from the roof of the conference room little by little.
Inexplicably, everyone in the criminal class felt vaguely that the terrible and weird taxi rules no longer seemed to lock them in, and had gone away with the dark cloud.
It seemed that today's guilt-ridden and unreserved confession had completely eliminated Tetsuo's resentment. All the confusion, discomfort, and grievances were quickly vented.
That night, no one was missing in the Criminal Division.
After that, during a week of continuous observation, there were no new disappearances in the criminal class.
But the weird taxis are still active in every corner of Lidu City, taking three people away quietly.
Soon, the criminal class was lifted from centralized isolation and returned to its normal schedule.
The five colleagues who have disappeared seem to never come back.
The Criminal Division held a solemn collective funeral for the five people. Several senior officials of the JA Police Department and even a police officer from the police headquarters were present at the funeral.
The consolation money given to the family is adequate, but the pain of losing a loved one cannot be compensated.
Soon Tetsuo resigned.
The resignation letter was mailed directly to Shiratori's desk. Shiratori made a special trip to see Tetsuo, but his neighbor told him that Tetsuo had moved two days ago.
When calling Tetsuo's number, it shows that the number has been logged out.
No one knew where Tetsuo had gone, so he was hidden in the vast crowd.
The complex guilt, helplessness, and lamentation brought by Tetsuo and the people in the Criminal Division will linger in the hearts of everyone in the Criminal Division for a long time, and there is a sense of distance and politeness and tolerance between them.
.
The request for support from the Bizarre Investigation Section was sent to all parts of the country on the night Tetsuo confessed, and many Bizarre Investigation Sections put forward their own opinions and suggestions.
At the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a weird investigator codenamed "Chocolate Circle" suggested that he could try to break the rules from the perspective of prompting the ungrateful to truly forgive the betrayer deep in his heart.
This is the closest suggestion to a real answer, but it certainly won't apply to every trigger person.
Some victims even have no idea that they have triggered the rules from beginning to end, let alone whom they are ungrateful to.
Sequoia wrote a report on the detailed process of rescuing members of the Criminal Division of the JA Police Station, and reported it to the police headquarters, and then reported it to the National Police Agency upon approval.
At the same time, Hong Shi also shared this report through the internal network with every weird investigation class in every place that had made suggestions as a thank you.
After this incident, the Lidu City Police Headquarters once again paid attention to the weirdness of taxis.
After Saury, Hongshan also officially joined the investigation of this bizarre incident...
"Click..."
Gu Xing, who had a stubble on his face, turned the key and opened the door to his house that he had not seen for a long time.
Fujino was curled up in a corner of the room, holding the book "Grandma Jichun" (script version) in his hand and reading through it.
Hearing the sound of Gu Xing opening the door, he turned a page without even raising his head.
You're in good spirits... Don't you need to eat to be weird? Gu Xing suddenly thought.
He took a step forward, and the sole of his foot seemed to step on something.
I looked down and saw it was a letter.
Picking up the letter, there was Chiyo's delicate handwriting on the envelope. It said, "Gu Xingjun personally opened it."
Gu Xing was a little confused, why couldn't he send a text message on his mobile phone to talk about something? It was the same last time, and he always had to write a letter.
The letter reads:
"Gu Xingjun, I'm sorry. I've moved.
I wanted to tell you in person and sincerely thank you for taking care of me during this time and for the great kindness that I cannot repay for a while.
No matter when and where you need me, please be sure to tell me and I will rush here even if I go through fire and water.
The new landlord is pressing you very hard, so I'm afraid I won't have time to say goodbye to you. See you again if we are destined."
The signature is Chiyo.
No matter what, we should meet and say goodbye... He walked away quietly like this. Although Gu Xing could understand it, he still felt a little helpless.
He felt in his heart that maybe Chiyo still misunderstood his friendship for her. God knows, he really regarded her as a pure friend.
On the other hand, Gu Xing felt that he could only do so much with the things Long Yi had entrusted to him. No matter how much he cared about him, it would only increase the burden on each other.
So be it.
The next morning, there was the sound of rummaging through boxes and cabinets next door, as if someone was moving.
Are new neighbors moving in so soon...
Gu Xing opened the door and looked sleepily at the next door.
"Gu Xingjun, good morning!"
Shengzi was wearing casual sportswear and greeted Gu Xing energetically. She was also holding a bulging bag in her hand, "Let's have breakfast together!"
"Well……"
Gu Xing was surprised, "This is...don't you know Qiandai has moved?"
"of course I know,"
Shengzi smiled and said: "Sister Chiyo mentioned this to me a few days ago. It just so happened that I was thinking about moving out from my parents' house and living a quiet life...Sister Chiyo said that she had renewed her plan for two months.
The rent was a little cheaper and transferred to me. So, haha! We hit it off right away..."
As he said that, he stretched out his hand to Gu Xing, his face full of excitement.
"Gu Xingjun, I am your new neighbor, Shengzi Futian, please take good care of me!"
