Chapter 150 40: Provocation (5k) [Happy Children’s Day]
Intensive Care Ward.
Miura Tsugami's straight line of electroencephalogram suddenly trembled.
And his eyelids seemed to tremble.
Didi didi.
The programmed warning sounded in the ward and at the nurse's station.
Toyokawa, who had dozed off, immediately came to his senses, patted his face, and stared at the ward and surroundings vigilantly to see if there was any suspicious person.
Doctors and nurses came in a hurry.
"You cannot go in directly, you must pass the 'anti-charm' test."
Although Miura Tsugami may be in danger of life, there is no one inside, and it may be a way to disturb their sense of proportion. The purpose of this approach is to allow the charmed medical staff to enter.
At any rate, after a lot of training, Toyokawa Shangqing was able to understand this.
Of course, more importantly, he does not care about Miura Tsugami's life.
After the examination, there were no problems with the medical staff. They entered the ward one after another, and Toyokawa followed.
"The patient's brain waves have recovered, and the miracle is simply bringing him back to life."
The doctor looked at the instrument and marveled.
"Arrange a full-body examination immediately."
Miura Tsugami's eyes suddenly opened on the hospital bed, and he sat up like a spring, startling the doctors and nurses.
He was panting like crazy as if he was having an asthma attack. He pressed one hand tightly on his chest and looked at the doctor with dull eyes. Big beads of sweat slid down his cheeks. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to speak. .
"Calm down! Calm down! Mr. Miura, calm down first. This is a hospital. You are safe now."
The doctor put his hand on his chest and told him not to panic.
"Doctor! Heart rate, the patient's heart rate has exceeded 150!" the nurse on the side shouted in panic.
The doctor's eyes widened, and just as he was about to take a closer look, Miura Tsugami in front of him spurted out a large mouthful of blood, splattering the doctor's face.
Immediately afterwards, Miura's eyes and mouth opened strangely to the maximum, and the clicking sound of dislocation could not be stopped.
"Oh my God. Leave! All leave!"
In the frightened eyes of the doctors and nurses, roots that seemed to be alive sprouted crazily from Miura's mouth.
Eyeballs crackled, eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and vines of varying thicknesses were spreading.
"Approval to fire."
Bang, bang, bang!
After the doctors and nurses left, colleagues from the Special Bureau began shooting at Miura Tsugami on the hospital bed.
The hospital fell into panic and chaos, and a large number of patients and staff fled outside.
The bullets made countless holes in Miura's body, but immediately, vines continued to sprout out of those holes.
“Mini flamethrower!”
As a team from the Special Affairs Bureau, they all carry fire extinguisher grenades, not to mention flamethrowers.
Toyokawa took the flamethrower and sprayed all the flamethrowers directly at Miura Tsugami.
The flames quickly filled the entire ward, the fire alarm sounded, and as the smoke reached, fire sprinklers sprayed water mist.
In the mist of fire and water, Miura's already broken belly split open, and a bud slowly rose. Countless vines connected the body under the flower, like straws, with bright red surging inside.
Miura is like a piece of fertilizer, using the last remaining warmth to provide flowers with their most brilliant moments.
The tip of its bud is like a head, looking at Toyokawa, who is the only one standing in the ward, and slowly blooming to him.
The petals are dyed red with blood. At the reddest moment, they are also the most magnificent.
Subsequently, it turned from prosperity to decline and slowly withered.
Toyokawa slowly backed away and left the hot and suffocating room.
At this time, Takashima Yumi also called.
Toyokawa wiped the water stains and connected.
"Well, there was a little friction on my side. Miura-chan, I probably can't make up ten pounds."
Noon.
safe house.
An emergency temporary meeting has ended. Now Takashima is sorting out the meeting materials and trying to find a clue.
The trees in the park eventually turned into bloody carnations, and the flowers on Miura Tsugami were observed and concluded to be tulips.
"Using flowers as a death notice? Is it to deceive others, or is it too confident?" Takashima stared at the information scattered on the table in front of him, recalling the suspects he visited yesterday in his mind.
Nishimura Jiayue orders a bouquet of carnations every week. What day of the week? Pulling out the relevant information, Takashima quickly glanced at Monday.
Let’s look at the time of Takashi Nishimura’s disappearance, Monday, which is correct.
The tulips from the Ueda sisters' house were given the day before yesterday, and Miura Tsugami happened to be attacked the night before yesterday, and when he died, tulip-like flowers bloomed.
So, the flower she solved earlier was transformed by Takashi Nishimura?
Then
Tuk tuk tuk.
"Come in."
Shirai opened the door and walked in with a file bag. Passed it to Takashima: "This is the list of flowers delivered by Chiba Kikuzhi Flower Shop these days."
"Where is she?"
"She was sent to the hospital before our detention order was issued. He has already taken the initiative to come to the Special Affairs Bureau and is waiting for our detention."
Shirai thought of the other party's indifference when he walked into the detention room, as if he had expected it.
"Hmm, are you sure we can't find any evidence? Didn't you think that it's something extraordinary, so we don't have to talk about it?"
Takashima looked at the rows of names and the relevant comments behind them, and quickly found a suspicious and eye-catching one. Target.
"Yuki Maria Blue Iris."
Takashima began to search for information about her on the computer.
Afternoon, Yuki’s house.
Maria Yuki poured two cups of tea for the two guests in front of her using standard tea making techniques.
“Please drink.” Maria handed it to Takashima first and then to Shirai.
Takashima took a casual sip without making any comments. She could only watch the other person making tea with the intention of observing. Now that the observation was over, it was time to get down to business.
"I think the recent disappearance of the gang leader should be very clear."
Maria nodded. Although she concealed it well, her slightly stiff smile still revealed some nervousness.
"I want to know why you ordered flowers from Chiba Flower House. Obviously this flower shop is not close to you and the price is not advantageous."
"I have known Miss Chiba for a long time. "I just felt that it was not easy for a woman to support such a flower shop, so I gave her more help," Maria explained.
"Then you know that among the people she sent flowers to, there were also haters of missing or dead gang leaders?" Takashima stared directly into Maria's eyes, not letting her go. The slightest change in his eyes.
"How do I know these things? It's not the flowers I sell, and her business must be good. Who in business would go out of their way to investigate these things?" Maria seemed to be worried about Takashima's business. The reason is puzzling.
Takashima shook his head: "No, you know, you are an accomplice."
Maria's smile disappeared: "Miss Takashima, I know you are a transcendent, but please don't make random guesses, it will make me uncomfortable."
"Nishimura Kayue has participated in flower arrangement Habit." Takashima said this for no reason, and Maria's eyes were stunned.
“Not just her, many wives of gang leaders have this habit, and it was you who organized it.”
“I looked through your flower order records, every week I always order a bouquet of flowers. But when it comes to flower arrangements, I buy them in bulk."
"Coincidentally, you also have the habit of sending flowers to those ladies."< br>
"You took advantage of this habit."
"In fact, Chiba's act of sending flowers to Nishimura and Ueda was just to confuse our investigation. In fact, the flowers you sent were the death notices of those leaders. Right? "
Takashima said his guess one sentence at a time.
Shirai was stunned for a while as he listened.
Maria slowly lowered her head and waited for a long time before speaking: "As long as you send a bouquet of flowers, you will be less guilty. Why not?"
"So you admitted it? Why did you help Chiba?" Takashima did not distinguish whether lynching was correct or not.
“I didn’t deliberately help her, I just sent the right flowers to the right people at the right time. They have to be sent anyway. Do you think they won’t disappear if I don’t send them? Maria looked up and asked.
Takashima did not deny this. Judging from the strange method of Charming Girl, it is probably possible to kill him by force, but it is not yet clear whether Hua is necessary in this process.
“Is Chiba the enchantress?”
“I have heard of the enchantress, but I just sent a few flowers according to what Chiba said. I don’t know if she is the enchantress. The so-called enchantress." Maria neither admitted nor denied it.
Takashima looked around. This was a rather luxurious, antique-style house located in a wealthy area. It had a large garden and a swimming pool. It was a typical residence of a wealthy family.
"You hate your husband Yuuki Hisako? From my current information, you seem to be doing well after your marriage."
"Where did you come to such a conclusion? I Hate Jiuxian?" Maria looked sarcastic. "You ordered a bouquet of irises today, but you didn't send them out. Isn't this your latest preview?" It has been three years since I ordered different flowers every week. According to you, Jiuxian will not survive today.”
"It's different. After sending you this bouquet of flowers, Qianye took the initiative to find us."
"Qianye said that as long as I send her flowers, she will not touch my husband." Maria took a deep breath and revealed the truth that she didn't know if it was the truth, "In the Osaka gang, Yuki was originally the third one. Now, the leaders of the first two are dead and they have fallen into chaos. This is good for Yuki. It was mainly for this reason that I was willing to help deliver the flowers.”
“The bouquet of irises was sent by her. I didn’t dare not accept it, but after accepting it, I had someone take it away. , as far as possible.”
Takashima changed the subject: “Next, we will protect your husband.”
“Jiu Xian, I’ll leave it to you.” Ma. Leah sighed and bowed deeply to them.
The conversation ends here.
Takashima gained a lot of information.
Arranged people to monitor Maria, and put Yuuki Hisako into a detention room in the name of protection, right next door to Chiba Kikue.
It’s hard to say she didn’t do it on purpose.
Takashima did not arrange anyone to protect other gang leaders, but just kept people on alert as before.
If the charming girl really makes a fuss, Takashima doesn't mind wasting one more day.
That way at least you don’t have to worry about the so-called flower murder notice.
In fact, she had no good way to stop this inexplicable killing method.
It was only when one of the suspects showed something suspicious that she could follow the clues and investigate them all the way.
If people who have acquired this ability have no bottom line, they may not even be able to identify suspects if several gang leaders are mixed in with random killings.
But fortunately, Charming Girl seems to be very confident.
Takashima felt that such a confident person would definitely follow her own rules.
Even, they will take the initiative to provoke.
……
The lanterns come on.
Osaka Special Affairs Bureau Branch.
Toyokawa slept all afternoon, and then was assigned the task of keeping watch.
Originally, he wanted to go to Nanako's concert tonight. After all, that's why he came here.
It’s just that the work here is progressing slower than he expected, and the case is also complicated, and he can’t even spare a few hours at night.
But in the end, work is still the priority.
Although he is a bit naughty, he is not someone who cannot tell the difference between good and evil.
Anyway, Nanako also performed for herself alone, so don’t force it too much.
And Takashima will also be with her, giving him a little more psychological balance.
Going to the toilet, he washed his face. When he looked up, a woman in a red dress wearing a flower mask appeared on the mirror.
"I said, this is the men's room." Looking at the woman in the mirror as bright as a flower, Toyokawa was ready to take out a gun from the void at any time.
"Can you do me a favor?" The charming girl held a blue iris in her hand and spoke in a soft and beautiful voice.
"I can consider it if you surrender." Toyokawa was unmoved.
"Are you really not going to think about it? Just throw this flower into Yuuki Hisako's detention room. I know you, the Three Special Agents, even know that your little girlfriend is now In——”
Bang bang!
Gunshots sounded.
The enchantress turned into nothingness, and only the blue iris in her hand fell to the ground.
Toyokawa looked gloomy.
The sound of gunfire alarmed many people, but when they saw Toyokawa walking out of the bathroom with a serious face, they just asked a few questions as usual, and then immediately started a self-examination.
"Have you seen the enchantress?" Takashima thought about what he had missed. She obviously ordered all the flowers and trees in the entire branch to be discarded, but the enchantress's elusive appearance really doesn't require any medium. , and why did he threaten Toyokawa to put flowers in Yuuki Hisako's detention room?
Or maybe this is confusing us.
No, Takashima remembered that Chiba Kikue came to the Special Affairs Bureau on her own initiative.
Is it possible that she has been to the bathroom?
Although searched, some locations are not deliberately searched.
"I apply to protect Nanako." Toyokawa said with a sullen face.
"This may be what she wants." Takashima looked at Toyokawa and wanted to persuade him.
Toyokawa remained silent.
"Well, since the enchantress has issued a threat, we should indeed protect her."
Takashima agreed, although she thought that the enchantress would not take action against Nanako, but For Toyokawa, he really didn't dare to gamble. After all, Nanako was just an ordinary person.
Unlike her, if someone threatens to deal with Nishikido Jun, she will believe that Jun's sword will teach him how to behave.
Toyokawa left Takashima's office, returned to the place where he was originally guarding, picked up his coat, and when he left, he couldn't help but glance at Chiba Kikueda in the detention room.
Sensing Toyokawa's gaze, Chiba, who was sitting upright, turned her head to look at him.
"Don't worry, the flowers will die when they are most brilliant."
Toyokawa gritted his teeth and walked to the iron railing: "Do you know? If my section chief were here, What you said just now is enough to kill you as a murderer."
"I have always had great confidence in you when it comes to unjust, false and wrongful convictions." Chiba's smile didn't look like a living person.
He clenched his fists silently, turned and left without saying anything else.
Chiba lowered his head and touched his abdomen with one hand. His face could not be seen clearly in the shadow.
But before she could wait long, Takashima brought Shirai over and opened the door.
"Can't you help but torture to extract a confession?" Chiba looked at the two people in front of him, not only did he not panic, but he was a little expectant.
Takashima shook his head: "That kind of method is not suitable for you, and I don't like it either."
As he said that, he walked to Qianye's side and easily controlled her without resistance. live.
"Wait, what are you going to do?"
Chiba had a bad premonition, especially when Kyoko Shirai in front of her stretched out her hand and blossomed.
"No, no, no! No!"
She was as afraid of Shirai's ability to soothe the soul and heal the body as a snake and began to struggle, looking horrified.
"Tell me, who is the charming girl? Is it you or Yuki?" Takashima asked in her ear.
Qianye's face was still frightened, but she closed her mouth.
"Or is it Nishimura?"
Qianye closed her eyes, and the crystal fell from the corners of her eyes.
Takashima looked at the pale Shirai: "Do your best, you have to remember, this is salvation."
Shirai looked at Takashima, and then at Qian, who was closing her eyes and crying. Ye, finally, looked at his hands. The shining white light warmed people's hearts, but why are some people so afraid?
I'm helping others.
Shirai cheered himself up in his heart, and then placed his hands on Chiba's cheeks.
"Ah! Ah——"
A wailing voice that was not like a human voice came from the detention room, making Yuki Kuken next door sweat continuously and sit on pins and needles.
A large number of fragmentary fragments flashed through Shirai's mind.
It was a loving couple who ran a flower shop and wanted to have a child, and they were fully prepared for it.
No, no, these are happy memories. According to the past, shouldn’t they downplay painful memories?
The clip continues, gang members come to the door, troubles, threats, car accidents, funerals.
“Give it back to me. Please. This is all I have left”
< br>Chiba Kikue stared at Shirai Kyoko's eyes with red eyes. She looked like she was pleading, just like her former self, holding the last straw and looking at Hirosue Yoshimiya.
However, now she is standing in the position of Guangsue Liang Palace.
Shirai felt as if he had been struck by lightning. He could no longer maintain his strength. He took a few steps back and leaned against the iron railing, holding his chest and gasping.
Empathy also made her shed tears unconsciously.
"Shirai?" Takashima loosened his restraint on Chiba, who seemed to have lost his soul, his eyes were lifeless, and he slumped quietly on the seat.
Shirai's voice was hoarse: "Her pain has been entangled with her former happiness. Curing her pain is equivalent to erasing her happiness."
Takashima turned around and looked at Chiba on the seat. Except for his breathing and heartbeat, he was no different from a dead person.
"Thank you for your hard work. It's not your fault that there are always exceptions. Don't blame yourself. This is my decision."
Takashima patted Shirai on the shoulder and helped her up. Quietly comforting.
