Chapter 151 41: Gradually Ming (5k) [Happy Children's Day]
"If the charming girl is not Chiba, how did she know about me in the detention room?"
During the call with Takashima Yumi, Toyokawa told her about the conversation that took place with Chiba before he left.
“Perhaps she has already discussed with the real enchantress in advance and will come to the Special Affairs Bureau to wait for us to catch her.”
“.I am rushing to Nanako’s concert to finish. After that, I requested that she be included in the protection." Toyokawa did not continue to argue.
"Okay, I will complete the procedures." Takashima did not refuse. Since the charm girl had issued a threat, it was in line with the procedure to protect her.
Toyokawa hung up the phone and he had already arrived at Nagai Gymnasium.
As you can see, there is a large poster of Nanako hanging outside the gymnasium, and there is quite a lively movement inside.
Hoshino Nanako, as an idol who has just debuted a few months ago and is not from a group, should not have gained popularity so quickly and held concerts.
But Naihe fell in love with Toyokawa Uekiyo at first sight. He must have been attracted to Nanako because of her beauty, but he was interested in her. After officially dating Nanako, he fell in love with her at first sight. Other, more beautiful women don't pretend to be shy.
From then on, Nanako received a huge amount of resources and became popular despite the gnashing of teeth of many people.
And unlike other idols who need to avoid emotional issues, her emotional issues are the biggest selling point, especially after the extraordinary animal turmoil, the official released some information about Toyokawa Shangqiu.
The agency struck while the iron was hot and invited a very appropriate song - "Super Boyfriend". Toyokawa also spent a long time to shoot the MV, and then Nanako used this song to match the reality. It suddenly became popular!
Osaka is Nanako’s hometown. Perhaps with the idea of returning to her hometown in fine clothes, she couldn’t wait to plan her first test concert. However, she was worried about the lack of popularity, so the concert was only planned to be held. One night.
When I walked to an entrance of the gymnasium, I saw Nanako’s manager waiting there anxiously.
"There was no accident, right?"
"No, Mr. Toyokawa, everything went well. Did you go directly to the reserved seat? I think the fans will be very happy to see you. "
"No, don't worry about me."
After saying that, Fengchuan went directly into the void.
The manager looked around, somewhat used to Toyokawa's elusiveness, and hurried back to the backstage without staying much longer.
In the void, Toyokawa slipped into the concert venue silently.
He had no way to find the threat among the tens of thousands of people, so he could only stay near the stage and be alert to everything.
On the stage, Nanako, who didn’t know that Toyokawa had arrived, started to walk around to interact when the song "Super Boyfriend" was singing in the second half.
Fans responded enthusiastically.
Right in front, one of the men, who seemed to be absent-minded, took out a gun from his arms and pointed it at Nanako Hoshino, who still kept a smile on his face, expressionlessly.
Bang bang bang!
Three consecutive gunshots suddenly stopped the cheers of some nearby fans.
The people nearby followed the sound, and Toyokawa appeared at the scene at some point, holding a pistol with smoke coming out of the muzzle.
Only a few meters across from him, the man who took out a gun had several blood holes on his body, but what appeared at the muzzle of the gun in his hand was a rose.
"Shang Qingjun" Nanako covered her mouth, not knowing what happened.
And Toyokawa Shangqing gasped, staring at the rose on the man's gun, a sense of shame that he had been tricked filled his brain.
A commotion began at the scene.
"This is, this is the Special Affairs Bureau handling the case, please don't panic."
Nanako began to divert everyone's attention and talked about other things incoherently.
Toyokawa put away his gun and dragged the man out of his position.
"Wake up! Wake up! Have you seen the charming girl?!" Toyokawa slapped his face and roared at him.
The man's mouth was filled with blood, he trembled a few times, but did not speak.
At this time, in the gymnasium, the fire bell rang loudly and puffs of smoke floated out.
The crowd began to panic on a large scale.
“Everyone, please don’t crowd and take the fire escape!” Nanako was still sweating profusely on the stage to comfort people. This accident-prone concert made her feel as if she was suffocating.
Toyokawa took away the rose pistol, jumped on the stage, hugged Nanako, and in a blink of an eye, the two disappeared into the air.
Osaka Special Affairs Bureau.
In the duty room opposite the detention room, Shirai drank bottled oolong tea and sat opposite Takashima who was reviewing files. He had already come out of his previous emotions.
"Takashima-san, do you still doubt Miss Nishimura?" Seeing Takashima put down the documents in his hands, Shirai asked taking advantage of this opportunity.
"A little bit, those flower arrangement activities between wives were actually organized by Nishimura at the beginning, and it was slowly handed over to Maria Yuki in the past two years." Takashima replied without thinking.
After saying that, Takashima stopped rummaging and looked at Shirai: "When you are comforting your soul, must you be able to see the other person's memories?"
Shirai shook his head: "Only very, very deeply. Only the bad memories could be felt by me, but they only passed by and were very fragmented."
She turned her head and looked out the window, and she could see the state of Chiba in the detention room.
What it was like when they left, what it is like now.
Just slumped in the chair, as if he had lost all feelings about the outside world.
Every time I read it, Shirai's heart ached.
“You don’t have to feel guilty. First, you did it under my command; second, if she is a charm, then you have eliminated a big threat; third, even if she is not a charm , which also shows that there is only hatred left in her heart, and her enemy has been on the missing list for a long time. He should be dead, and the hatred should be eliminated. So now, you have helped her to get rid of her hatred. It affects other people."
Takashima said to her in an analytical way.
Although she likes to directly use strength to solve everything in battle, when she was still searching the first lesson, she was Noguchi Yushi's right-hand man, responsible for assisting him in integrating and analyzing data, and even suspected it before Noguchi. The existence of extraordinary power.
Shirai tried his best to smile at Takashima, not wanting to worry him too much.
The cell phone rings.
Takashima answered the phone and hummed a few times, his expression unchanged.
"Where are you now?"
"Okay, you can bring her here."
After hanging up the phone, Takashima tapped his index finger on the table. After thinking for a few seconds, he dialed Got a call from Noguchi Yushi.
"Section Chief, we need the help of the World Theory Department here."
".You understand? Yes. I understand."
Putting down the phone, Takashima looked at Shirai: "Alright? Do you have any spare energy?"
"Okay, where do you need me?" Hearing this, Shirai cheered up.
“Toyokawa and his Nanako.”
After a while.
Toyokawa Kamiki took Nanako back to the Osaka Special Affairs Bureau.
Even Nanako’s makeup and costumes were not changed, which showed that they left in a hurry.
When Toyokawa saw Takashima, he looked very unnatural, panicked, and hesitated to speak. He felt quite embarrassed that he had done something wrong and was discovered by the class teacher.
“I”
"No rush, let Shirai take care of it first."
Shirai gave them a reassuring smile, then held their hands and healed their nervous and tired hearts with gentle white light.
The paleness on Nanako's face has recovered visibly.
"You should not appear in public now. Section Chief Noguchi will help you make arrangements. If you need to hold a press conference to clarify these matters, we will discuss the process with you in advance."
After learning that Yushi Noguchi already knew about this, Toyokawa couldn't help but panic even though he had expected it.
"I suspect that man is controlled by the enchantress. This is the rose gun he has." Toyokawa took out the rose gun and handed it to Takashima.
I looked at the rose gun in my hand. The gun was made of plastic, but the roses inside were real flowers.
"I have arranged for someone to recover the body, and the results should be available soon. Now, you and Nanako go to rest, and remember not to read the messages on the Internet."
Crushing the rose into pieces, Takashima warned.
“I understand.”
Toyokawa was a little frustrated and was about to take Nanako away, but before he left, there was a commotion in the detention room, and Captain Takeuchi anxiously opened the door and entered.
"Chief Takashima, Chiba Kikueda seems to have suffered a poisoning reaction."
Poisoned?
How did you get poisoned?
Is it to quench the poison on clothes in advance or bite the fangs?
Takashima looked at Shirai, who shook his head in confusion: "My ability shouldn't be able to detoxify, but I can try."
The two walked into the detention room again and saw Chiba Mian His color was green, he was lying on the ground with foaming at the mouth, and his body was twitching slightly.
Shirai tried his best to use his abilities, but unfortunately he had little effect. He could only shake his head with Takashima with sweat on his forehead.
"Arrange a car to take her to the hospital."
"Yes."
To be on the safe side, Takashima personally picked up Chiba and planned to accompany her all the way there.
Just when she walked out of the detention room with Qianye in her arms, something happened.
"Ugh——"
A vine spurted out from Chiba's mouth, as if it had eyes, and it turned into the detention room next door and leaned against the iron railing. The melon-eating Yuki Kuken's neck is tightly wrapped around him!
Takashima had quick eyesight and quick hands. He cut off the vines with a single stroke of his hand, and then immediately pressed Qianye under him.
“Go and save Yuki!”
Without Takashima’s need to shout, Toyokawa, who was still at the scene, had already passed through the iron fence and came to Yuki’s side. But there seemed to be some remaining powerful vines pulling back and forth, making Yuki's eyes turn white.
"Is the charm really you?" Takashima looked at the vines that were twisting in Chiba's mouth, "Or are you just a puppet?"
Chiba did not speak. Plan, she is speechless now.
The vine gradually became silent and died. A normal-sized flower slowly poked its head out of her mouth at the break of the vine and bloomed.
Different from the previous blood-red flowers, except for the stamens, the petals of this flower are pure white.
Takashima has gained some relevant knowledge and can tell that this is a calla lily.
Looking at Toyokawa, he has successfully untied the vines around Yuki's neck. The latter was lying on the ground, gasping for air, coughing occasionally, with a look of lingering fear on his face. He almost almost Just went to hell.
The heartbeat and breathing were confirmed to have disappeared, but she still picked up Qianye and planned to go to the hospital to confirm.
"Toyokawa, Shirai, you are optimistic about Yuuki, Takeuchi, go and bring Nishimura Kayue and Yuuki Maria."
Chiba was rushed to the nearest hospital. After waiting for a long time, the result was came out.
Declared dead.
Havicin poisoning was detected in his body.
But this was not the cause of death, or the amount was enough to cause death but before it could fully take effect, Chiba was killed by other more serious reasons.
That is, the heart is bound by roots, and a large amount of blood is lost, resulting in death.
Takashima guessed that the disappearing blood formed the vine that wanted to kill Yuuki Hisako.
She originally used scum like Yuuki Hisako as bait, but now that she has actually been lured, something seems wrong.
"Are you really a charm?" Takashima looked at the withered calla lily in his hand. It was cut from Chiba's mouth. After the roots were cut off, the flower quickly withered.
“I have seen the enchantress.”
Osaka Special Affairs Bureau.
Nishimura Kayue was restless, touching the cigarette case many times and then giving up. Finally, after learning about Chiba's death, he sighed and chose to tell what he had concealed before.
“More than a month ago, no one started disappearing. When Ms. Chiba gave me flowers, she asked me inexplicably, ‘Do you want to avenge Mutsumi? I know which gang did it.’ Mutsumi was My daughter who has been dead for ten years, that guy Takashi Nishimura was only focused on "fighting for success" outside, and didn't take Mutsumi and I to heart at all. After Mutsumi was kidnapped, he was not even willing to negotiate or even try. "
Nishimura Kayue's hands were clenched into fists and trembling. When she talked about what happened many years ago, there was still deep resentment in her eyes, even though she had been cured by Shirai.
“I am willing, but I cannot express my thoughts just because of Chiba’s words.”
"But you didn't express resistance, did you?" Takashima helped her complete the sentence.
Nishimura Kayue was silent for a few seconds and continued: "Yes, I didn't resist, so Chiba told me to make a wish on the carnation she sent, and the messenger of the flower would fulfill my wish and take away the sinner. "
"The first time I made a wish was to kill the person who kidnapped my daughter."
"Then the charming girl you mentioned appeared."
< br>"Although she is wearing a mask, I can feel that she is very beautiful, and it makes my heart beat so beautiful."
"She told me that there are two criminals, one is Fukuda Koichi and the other is Nishimura Takashi. If you kill Fukuda Koichi, you will find a way to send a peony to his house, and if you kill Nishimura Takashi, you will send carnations."
"Why. Is Nishimura Takashi the murderer who decided to kidnap your daughter?" Takashima asked.
"Why. Haha, it was only then that I found out that he had known in advance that his daughter would be kidnapped. All he wanted was to act out the drama of 'wife and daughter, family is not as good as brother and sister' . " Tears dripped into my fists, the pain of my husband killing my daughter was piercing my heart.
“So, is there no price?”
“No, you didn’t even deliberately tell me not to tell it.” Nishimura Kayue shook his head with his eyes closed, took a deep breath, stabilized his breath, and continued. , "My first target was Nishimura Takashi. It happened to be Mutsumi's death anniversary. I gave him a bouquet of carnations. He was very unhappy, but he still kept the flowers."
"Well, judging from the timing, he is indeed the first known missing person."
"Then, my second target is Fukuda, so please ask Maria Yuki, Ask her to help organize a flower arrangement where Mrs. Fukuda is invited. Taking the opportunity, I gave the flower arrangement with peonies to Mrs. Fukuda.”
“I don’t know much about what happens next, even Mei. I also heard the name "woman" from other people, and I always call her "Flower Master."
Takashima continued to learn about the scenes where the enchantress appeared, which is more useful.
“If you use a flower as a substitute, when it disappears, will the substitute flower disappear with it? Judging from Toyokawa’s experience, this substitute seems to have little fighting ability, but it is very charming.” According to Takashima The previous clues, combined with Nishimura's confession, finally gave a detailed description of the most likely ability of the charm girl.
[Flower Stand] A stand that can consume a flower to form the image of a charming girl. The distance is unknown, the charm is strong, and the combat effectiveness is low.
[Vine Manipulation] Turning the people she kills into "flowers and trees" may require certain conditions, such as sin and soul. The stronger these are, the stronger the flowers and trees will be, and they can absorb other people. Strengthen himself, and the rescued Miura Tsugami looked like he had lost his soul because the transformation process was interrupted.
Later, because the flowers and trees suspected of being Nishimura Takashi were solved by himself, Miura Tsugami's lost soul came back, but it may be some sequelae that turned him into a flower and showed almost no fighting ability.
Blood, flowers, and vines, these are the core expressions of the charm's ability. As for the sinful soul, Takashima is not completely sure that it is a necessity, but he is more inclined to it.
After finishing Nishimura’s confession, Yuuki Maria is waiting for her.
"Chiba was actually looking for me at first, but I refused." Maria seemed to have given up on concealing anything, and after Takashima sat down opposite her, she went straight to the point.
"I don't particularly hate anyone, and I don't want to have too much to do with these mysterious things."
Takashima looked at her for a while: "How do you know you Was she the first person to be found? "
"I guessed it, because Nishimura's deliberate behavior let me know that Chiba must have looked for her. She was obviously not familiar with Mrs. Fukuda, but she asked me inexplicably. I invited Mrs. Fukuda to participate in the flower arrangement, and she suddenly showed kindness that day, and even gave the flower arrangement to Mrs. Fukuda. Her flower arrangements have always been the best between us, and she has never given them to others. Mrs. Fukuda was very happy that day. Probably because of her dignity, I thought she would put the flower arrangement in a prominent position after she returned home."
"A few days later, I heard Ku Xian talking about Fukuda and Nishimura Takashi. It was at that time that I believed what Chiba said about the mysterious disappearance.”
"But didn't you say you don't have anyone you particularly hate?"
"I don't, but my husband does." Maria's eyes were a little red, perhaps because she was worried about her husband who was in the hospital for examination. Love, if you love someone, you will understand.”
Takashima nodded.
“Actually, in the final analysis, I am just doing it for profit. Those gangs have hindered my husband’s development. Nowadays, gangs have started upright businesses, but the boss and the second kid always occupy the best resources. The urban group has always been the third child. From that chaotic era to now, it has always been so. Therefore, I just want to help my husband. Anyway, those people will die without mercy. All I have to do is send a few bouquets. It’s just a flower. If I don’t do it, Chiba will find someone else to do it. Isn’t Nishimura an example?” .”
"It's just that I didn't expect that in the end, she would not let go of my husband. Sure enough, there is nothing in the world that does not require a price."
"And now that Chiba is dead, I have nothing to do. It’s hidden. If I break the law, then arrest me. Jiuxian didn’t know anything.”
Takashima recalled all the clues and found them.
Nowadays, a large number of gang leaders have disappeared. Not to mention the top ten, at least the top seven gangs in Osaka, only Yuki Kuken is left. If it is said that the charm girl chose it in order to stabilize Maria It seems reasonable to take action in the end.
After doing all this, he happily went to die, only to be stopped by himself and Toyokawa in the end.
But shouldn't the best time difference be when Toyokawa is lured away? Is it because Shirai's cure interrupted her plan?
By the way, Shirai used light to heal Maria, and the latter's anxiety was significantly reduced.
The official investigation capabilities are not omnipotent. For example, the gang must have secretly thrown many people into the sea to feed the fish, or it may be those people's close relatives who secretly retaliated.
Doubts will never end, so we can only rely on evidence.
