Chapter 16 Bitter Miso Soup
——This guy is indeed crazy.
In the disdainful eyes of everyone, Nagano Kawai showed a bright smile. Everyone could see that her smile was fake.
Yuan Yuzi knew that Kawai's two words were meant for her.
Once she surrenders, the private investigation of Instructor Sakurai will be exposed, and the final result can be imagined:
——Three people from the reasoning team were fired, and Kazuo Ishizuka who sent the anonymous letter will also lose his job.
The most important thing is that the hit-and-run case sixteen years ago will continue to be covered in dust until the victim is completely forgotten by the world.
No matter what, Yuan Yuzi couldn't accept this ending.
Her nasal cavity was sore, and the tears in her eyes blurred her vision.
On the stage, instructor Sakurai took off Nagano Kawai's uniform in public on the grounds that she was not worthy of being a police officer.
She was wearing a sports bra and sitting on a chair. Even though her body was shivering from the cold, her back was still straight.
Yuan Yuzi gritted her teeth, forced herself to lower her head, and swallowed the words that came to her throat.
This 'interrogation' lasted for two hours and ended hastily until the instructor came to dissuade him.
Fushimi Shika watched from start to finish.
Several times, Fushimi Shika felt that Nagano Kawai would turn him in. In this way, she can not only suffer less, but also protect Yuantamako, which can be said to be the best of both worlds.
But Nagano Kawai said nothing.
When Fushimi Shika was a lawyer, he also had strong bones. But those people either have compelling reasons, or they grit their teeth just to keep their money and status.
"Why didn't you confess me? Was it to protect Minamoto Tamako? Why bother? This incident originally started because of Minamoto Tamako. Doesn't she have any resentment in her heart?"
"Is it for Ishizuka Kazuo? They have never met, why don't they confess Ishizuka Kazuo?"
"Then what is she doing for? Is it for the so-called "justice"? This is too childish..."
The devil in Fushimi Shika's ear kept chattering, saying that Nagano Kawai was really an idiot. Who would be stupid enough to steal things from the instructors' dormitory? What's more, is it meaningful to suffer so much for a stranger? Is Instructor Sakurai still continuing to be her instructor?
The teacher announced the disbandment and the crowd dispersed in twos and threes.
Fushimi Shika saw Minamoto Tamoko. She was standing in the front row, motionless, and had been glanced at several times by students passing by.
He quickly stepped forward, grabbed Yuan Yuzi's clothes, and whispered: "Let's go."
"Yeah."
Minamoto Tamako has a strong nasal voice.
The two of them went back to their dormitories, where Fushimi Lu was lying on the bed, still tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
Of course he wouldn't feel sorry for Kawai. After all, he and Kawai were not familiar with each other at all. He just vaguely felt that he had forgotten something.
What did you forget?
Fushimi Lu sat up again. The sky outside the window was blue and hazy. He planned to go for a walk on the playground.
……
Early the next morning, the assembly bell rang at 6:30 on time.
The students were inspected in the playground as usual. The wooden platform, tables and chairs were all moved away, and Naganogawa Ai disappeared, as if nothing happened last night.
This morning's classes are disaster scene drills, drowning rescue practice, and a criminal law theory class commonly used by patrol officers.
The school announced an announcement during the break, and Nagano Kawai was expelled as expected. The students crowded around the windows of the teaching building and watched her being sent out of the school by two teachers.
"Well, it's probably my turn next." Fushimi Shika felt a sense of sadness in his heart. Instructor Sakurai was going to give him 'special instruction' tonight... and he was probably going to be sentenced too.
In the next five months, Instructor Sakurai will definitely find ways to turn him into a dog.
Fushimi Lu turned his head and looked at Minamoto Tamoko. The latter did not bother him chattering anymore, but stared blankly out the window, silent.
His ears were purified, or rather it was too purified, which made him a little uncomfortable.
At lunch break, Fushimi Shika was carrying a dinner plate and was about to go back to the dormitory to eat when he bumped into Minamoto Tamoko.
Her only good friend was gone, and she looked around blankly, not knowing where to sit to eat.
Fushimi Lu sighed, patted her shoulder, and actively invited: "Let's eat together."
"Eh? Well..."
The two found a relatively remote corner and sat down facing each other.
Minamoto Tamako poked at the broccoli thoughtfully. She was racking her brains to think about how to reveal the true identity of Instructor Sakurai - a pervert who used water magic in the office, a hit-and-run murderer sixteen years ago, and a teacher who used power for personal gain to teach students. Why should a woman be an instructor at a police academy?
Seeing her delay in moving her chopsticks, Fushimi Shika reminded: "Don't think about it, eat first."

"How can I be in the mood to eat?" Yuan Yuzi pouted, her little eyebrows drooped, and she looked like a bitter gourd. She muttered in a low voice: "It was like this last time, I couldn't do anything..."
"Last time?" Fushimi Shika asked.
"It's about her brother's car accident."
Yuan Yuzi stabbed the broccoli bully all over with her chopsticks, and her thoughts drifted back to more than ten years ago without realizing it.
At that time, she and Kawai were not familiar with each other. They were studying in the same elementary school, but in different classes.
Kawai played extremely happily when he was a child, just like a dark version of Crayon Shin-chan, which caused headaches for teachers and parents;
On the contrary, Minamoto Tamako has a very introverted personality and cannot be beaten with three sticks. Her deskmate secretly put a frog into her schoolbag. She was so frightened that she didn't dare to complain to the teacher.
Once, several boys surrounded her and stuck chewing gum in her hair. Kawai saw it and had a fight with the boys. She was not trying to avenge Minamoto Tamako, but because those boys stole her chewing gum.
The next day, Minamoto Tamako wanted to say thank you, but found that Kawai seemed to be a different person.
"I remember clearly that it was Obon Festival, and monks were chanting sutras to save the souls of the dead. People gathered near the temple, wearing yukata, dancing hand in hand to the rhythm of taiko drums. Kawai sat alone on the threshold of the temple, silently Looking at the golden statue of Buddha in the main hall.”
"And I couldn't do anything. I didn't even have the courage to step forward and say a word or two to comfort her. She must feel the same way as Mr. Ishizuka, right? They have both lost their most important relatives and silently endured the murderer's impunity... ”
As he spoke, Yuan Yuzi's tears fell.
The miso soup in the porcelain bowl rippled and turned bitter.
……
"Why are you crying?" Fushimi Shika sighed and said, "It's not like Kawai is dead, why are you so sad?"
"Why are you so cold-blooded..."
"Besides, she also left us clues."
Fushimi Shika grinned and took a bite of tempura. His teeth grinded against the dough, making a crunching sound like chewing bones. Yuan Yuzi stared at him blankly. The guy's temperament had changed, and there seemed to be something hidden in his eyes, ready to move.
"She gave me a page from her diary."
Fushimi Deer spoke vaguely, like a wolf grinding its teeth and sucking blood.
