Chapter 30 Miyazawa Yuzuki
The following day, inside the police station.
Muheyou wanted to ask Kamiya Gen what he meant by what he said yesterday.
Unfortunately, the other party was assigned to fieldwork early in the morning, and there was no sign of them by noon.
"I heard it was just a simple dispute, why hasn't he come back for so long..."
Feeling incredibly bored after organizing the files, Muheyou couldn't help but mutter.
Just then, a colleague leaned in to hand her evidence and overheard this, saying with a smile, "Do you want to see Inspector Kamiya?"
When Muhe You turned around, she saw it was Mr. Murakami from the police station and quickly took the evidence: "No... why do you say that?"
Murakami smiled to himself, thinking that the difference between people is sometimes greater than that between a person and a dog.
It took him more than ten years to gain a foothold in the police department, unlike Kamiya Gen, who only needed to date a powerful and wealthy young lady to become a deputy inspector.
"I'm not saying this, but everyone can see it, right? You're always looking at the vacancy that Inspector Kamiya filled. If you really miss him, just go find him. The case he's handling today seems to be in Kamiizumi Town," he said.
Muheyou quickly waved her hand, indicating that she had no intention of leaving her workstation.
She had no idea about the recent rumors circulating in the office that "the two new police inspectors seem to be in a relationship."
"But it seems that Inspector Kihachi will have to make a trip to Shinsencho today."
Murakami looked at the evidence in her hand and said, "You remember this case, right? At that time, the employees of that izakaya suspected a customer of stealing items, and we confiscated his identification. Later, the suspicion was cleared, but this person never came to pick up his identification. Although we could ask someone else to return it, I was wondering if we could ask Inspector Kihashi to go and pick it up again."
Ultimately, he was just doing Muheyou a favor so that she could leave the police station openly during her working hours.
Should I go?
Muheyou looked at the address on the evidence bag and nodded.
……
The process of returning the evidence did not actually take much time.
In about half an hour, the pomelo was ready.
However, she did remember the location where Kamiya Gen had handled the case. Considering that he hadn't finished the case after so long, and that she hadn't heard any new developments in the commercial dispute, she began to suspect that Kamiya Gen might be slacking off again under the guise of fieldwork...
"That's not right."
Muheyou hypnotized herself, confirming that Kamiya Gen was her partner, and decided that she couldn't let him continue like this. She turned around and headed to the address in her memory.
About ten minutes later...
"Just as I expected! That lazy guy Kamiya-kun finished the case and ran off somewhere to kill time!"
As Muheyou stepped out of the shop, she said angrily.
She had just asked her boss, who said that Kamiya Gen had resolved the dispute two hours ago.
Looking at the bustling street, Muheyou took out the pager from her waist and sent a message. The message was simple and clear, just asking Kamiya Gen to contact her—she had already given him her phone number.
However, surprisingly, instead of receiving a phone call, the walkie-talkie rang:
"Kamiya 030 is calling Kiha 031."
Muheyou was taken aback, then quickly pressed the button: "Muhe031 received, received..."
"I received your pager message, what's up?"
Muheyou couldn't answer. She had deliberately avoided using the police walkie-talkie to contact Kamiya Gen, since he was currently slacking off at work, and it wouldn't be good if others found out.
Unexpectedly, he contacted him directly via walkie-talkie.
"Can't you hear me, Muhe031?"
Kamiya Gen's voice came through the walkie-talkie again.
Muheyou snapped out of her thoughts and asked in a low voice:
"I can hear you... Where are you? Is there a case?"
"I was at 1-22 Udagawa-cho, there was a case there, but it's been resolved. What's up?"
"knew……"
Muheyou turned off the walkie-talkie and turned to walk in one direction.
I was right. This guy is usually the kind of carefree and brainless idiot partner.
1-22 Udagawa-cho is an eel restaurant. What does it mean to have a case? This is obviously a place where people eat.
It's working hours now. Using a police walkie-talkie to say this kind of thing, aren't you afraid of getting caught?
We have to give him a good talking-to and let Kamiya-kun know that even if he wants to be lazy, he should at least use his brain.
Besides, why didn't you invite yourself to eat eel rice?!
……
She arrived at her destination with a belly full of "anger," but when she saw Kamiya Gen inside the store through the glass window, she instantly forgot all the lines she had prepared.
How come... who is that on the other side?
In the restaurant, across from Kamiya Gen, sat a girl who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old.
The other person was grinning and raising their arm, seemingly showing off the bracelet on their wrist.
Through the clean glass, the first thing Muheyou could see was the girl's striking bright yellow hair—not a deliberately dyed, sophisticated color, but a slightly frizzy light yellow with slightly upturned ends and wispy strands casually falling across her brow bone, exuding a unique wildness.
Her skin was a healthy light tan, unlike the fair complexion of an ordinary young girl; her jawline was sharp; and her smile was straightforward and warm.
"What...is this going on?"
Just as Muheyou was thinking this, the girl seemed to notice the gaze outside the window, and suddenly looked up, her eyes meeting hers.
Kamiya Gen also turned around and waved in their direction.
Muheyou is now in a real dilemma.
Leaving doesn't seem right, but going there doesn't feel quite right either...
In the end, I decided to go inside the store.
"A signature eel rice bowl..."
After saying this to the boss, Muheyou reluctantly walked towards the table where the two of them were.
"Kamiya-kun... this... I..."
The seating was for four people, and she didn't know where she should sit.
The young woman stepped aside and spoke first, "Are you Officer Muhe? How about I sit here?"
"Who are you……"
Muheyou reluctantly sat down, feeling incredibly awkward.
"Her name is Miyazawa Yuzuki. We just met. The case I mentioned that had been resolved was about her. She's so young, yet she dyes her hair blonde and doesn't go to school. She was cornered in an alley by a few thugs. If I hadn't happened to be there, who knows what might have happened."
Kamiya Gen interjected, saying that although he hadn't spent much time with the girl, he already knew that she was the kind of person who could make up any lie, so it was best not to let Miyazawa introduce herself.
"Is that so?"
Muhe You breathed a sigh of relief for no apparent reason, then turned to look at Miyazawa Yuzuki, "Then why are you eating here?"
"The older man invited me; he said I looked malnourished."
Miyazawa Yuzuki nodded in response, then looked at Kamiya Gen with a grin.
The latter's expression changed slightly, and he said seriously:
"First of all, he's not some middle-aged man, and this meal was borrowed, it cost 800 yen."
