Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 78 Looking forward to our next meeting, Gin

Inspector Megure, Inspector Chiba, and Inspector Takagi stood in the bar, surveying the customers inside.

The lively atmosphere inside the store suddenly changed, and even the music stopped abruptly.

At that moment, the bar manager immediately came over, his face full of obsequiousness, and said, "Inspector Megure, what brings you here?"

"Come, sit down, everyone please sit down."

As the manager of the cocktail bar, he naturally knew Inspector Megure and had even dealt with him a few times, knowing that he was a difficult person.

He didn't want money, he didn't want women, and he was completely unyielding, which put him in a very difficult position.

After all, if you don't improve and you don't take credit, what are your subordinates supposed to do?
How can I then use this as leverage to threaten you?

Despite this, fortunately, Inspector Megure always came to conduct himself strictly on official business and never caused him any trouble or was asked by someone to come and make things difficult.

So I passed the test smoothly every time.

This time, however, his boss Gin happened to be having a team-building event here, and as a result, the Metropolitan Police Department came.

He was genuinely afraid that his suspicious boss would think he had called the police and then shoot him dead.

Moreover, his boss and the others don't look like good people at all, and it would be troublesome if the Metropolitan Police Department took notice.

He even suspected that the Metropolitan Police Department might be targeting Gin, the boss.

After all, he knew a little about what happened last time.

Regardless, his current thought is to get rid of Inspector Megure as soon as possible and then explain things to Gin.

Inspector Megure waved his hand and said, "I'm here on official business today. I just received a call from Daisuke Sugiyama, Kohei Shimoda, and Ryuichi Sakai. They have something to say and want to turn themselves in."

"We've come here to find them!"

"Huh?! You're here looking for someone?"

Hearing this, the bar manager was dumbfounded.

Someone actually called the police after drinking at his place?
This was the first time he had ever seen anything like it.

Could it be that their bar drinks contain a "repentance drug"? Something that can make people repent?

That's fine, as long as they don't come to cause trouble for them.

This time, I shouldn't have a gun pointed at my head.

“That’s right, we’re here to find someone.” Inspector Megure nodded and asked again, “Where are Sugiyama Daisuke, Shimoda Kohei, and Sakai Ryuichi?”

"We have something we'd like to ask."

Upon hearing this, the bar manager immediately called over a waiter and prepared to have him find the three customers and get rid of the Metropolitan Police Department guys as soon as possible.

"Inspector Megure, I am Daisuke Sugiyama, and I want to turn myself in."

Just then, Sugiyama Daisuke, who was not far away, stood up and raised his hand in greeting.

Then, everyone's eyes turned to Sugiyama Daisuke, including Yonehara Akiko.

Inspector Megure nodded and led Inspector Chiba and Inspector Takagi over.

As the three of them approached, Sugiyama Daisuke said again, "The suicide that happened at Beika Elementary School a few years ago was not a suicide, but a homicide."

“Minako Mochizuki was killed by me and Kohei Shimoda, and then it was staged to look like she had hanged herself.”

Kohei Shimoda, who was standing nearby, also stood up: "That's right, we did it."

Immediately afterward, Ryuichi Sakai also stood up: "I'm guilty, I was hitting on a high school girl."

"what!!!"

Inspector Megure, Takagi, and Chiba all looked shocked, as did the other guests around them.

It's outrageous that someone would kill a primary school girl and then stage it as a suicide.

Inspector Megure had heard about this matter, but he was not the one who conducted the investigation; it was his colleagues from the Metropolitan Police Department.

But he knew that once this got out, his colleagues at the Metropolitan Police Department would probably be in trouble.

Even the media will likely criticize the Metropolitan Police Department again. But none of that matters; what matters is clearing Minako Mochizuki's name.

He was even somewhat relieved that the matter had been brought up in such a public setting.

If it were said in the interrogation room of the Metropolitan Police Department, it might be covered up.

After all, the Metropolitan Police Department was in charge of investigating and supervising the case of Minako Mochizuki, and Beika Elementary School also had a lot of influence. Their first thought when such a scandal occurred was naturally to cover it up.

Now it's too late to cover it up, unless Inspector Megure arrests all of them and silences them.

Obviously, this is impossible.

Of course, this is on the premise that the matter is true and not just made up.

As for what Ryuichi Sakai said, it seems somewhat insignificant in this matter.

Just a casual flirtation
Upon hearing this, Akiko Yonehara was overjoyed and burst into tears.

Kitahara Natsuhiro pulled Yonehara Akiko into his arms and whispered comfortingly, "It's alright, it's all over now."

"I think Minako Mochizuki can rest in peace now."

Akiko Yonehara nodded and began to sob in his arms, her tears and snot soaking Kitahara Natsuhiro's coat.

The bar manager standing next to Inspector Megure also breathed a sigh of relief, taking out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, it had nothing to do with them.

These three guys are just here for a drink; they definitely have nothing to do with this.

A false alarm, a false alarm.

"Sugiyama Daisuke, Shimoda Kohei, and Sakai Ryuichi, please come with us to the Metropolitan Police Department to assist us with our investigation," Inspector Megure said sternly.

Trouble is brewing.
Sugiyama Daisuke and the other two did not refuse, and obediently got up and came to Inspector Megure and the others.

They are still under the control of hypnosis, so they will not refuse, nor will they do anything drastic.

And so, Sugiyama Daisuke and the others were taken away by Inspector Megure.

Afterwards, the bar returned to its lively atmosphere, but by this time everyone had lost their appetite for drinking and started gossiping about Mochizuki Minako and Beika Elementary School.

Eating melons and gossiping is one of the basic human instincts.

"Hmph! Boring!"

Misunderstanding resolved.

After watching the Metropolitan Police Department personnel leave, Gin's somewhat unpleasant expression returned to its poker face, and he put his hands in his jacket pockets, remaining as calm and composed as ever.

He then stood up and walked into the bar.

Tequila quickly got up and followed closely behind.

Kitahara Natsuyu glanced at Gin and thought to himself.

They're quite good at pretending; their face turned black just now.

Gin, I look forward to seeing you again. I wonder what surprises you'll bring me.

"Akiko, let's go back too."

Akiko Yonehara looked up, wiping away her tears with a tissue, and nodded, saying, "Yes, thank you so much."

Before she could finish speaking, Kitahara Natsuyu interrupted her, pressing a finger against her lips.

"We don't need to talk about this between us."

"Moreover, anyone with a sense of justice would not choose to stand idly by when faced with such a situation. And as a teacher, I naturally wouldn't watch my students being bullied."

His students are only for him to bully; everyone else, get out of the way!

"Yes." Akiko Yonehara nodded heavily.

"Let's go back"

"it is good."
