I'm Not a Detective

After sending Kakumaru Yuki away, Takeshi Nanabahara and Ruri Kiyomi went to prepare dinner. Ruri Qingmi said dissatisfiedly: "Where am I stupid again?"

Takeshi Nanabahara directed her to work, and said with a smile: "Of course you are stupid, you are so stupid that you are very slow to feelings. Kakumaru Yuki obviously likes Okisaka Fukuko. Judging from her performance, this kind of love is not one-way. They are building a mutually attached relationship and filling each other's emotional gaps."

Qing Jian Liuli was thoughtful, but immediately said happily: "Isn't this a good thing?"

"I can't tell yet whether it's a good thing or a bad thing." Takeshi Nanabaru touched his chin and muttered, "After all, Kakumaru Yuki ran all the way from Tokyo to Hirarano, which is not far from the Asahikawa River. One day she can't help but go Looking for her biological mother, it was a bit cruel to treat Okisaka Fukuko at that time. The longer Okisaka Fukuko gets along with her, the stronger the attachment relationship will be, and the more painful it will be after separation, so sometimes long-term pain is not as good as short-term pain."

"So that's what you think." Qingjian Liuli's face softened, and she felt that Takeshi Nanahara was a little considerate, and whispered, "That's why you are willing to make a trip, at least let her understand the situation of her biological mother, okay Let her make a decision quickly so as not to hurt one of them?"

Takeshi Nanahara nodded and said with a helpless smile: "It's a nosy thing. This kid... is a bit like me when I was a kid. I can't help but want to mind my own business."

Qing Jian Liuli couldn't agree with this and couldn't help but secretly curl her lips. How could Kakumaru Yuki be so cute and well-behaved like Takeshi Nanabaru when he was a child? Just look at Takeshi Nanabahara's current virtues and you will know that this guy must have been very naughty when he was a child. Maybe he has been a bitch since he was a child and took pleasure in bullying others.

She imagined for a while that Takeshi Nanabahara looked like a little puppy with his tongue pulled out, and couldn't help but snort. She also regretted that she didn't know him when she was a child. Otherwise, with her childhood personality, she would have pinned him to the ground and beat him three times a day. , he has long been cured of his stinking problem, and he must be particularly well-behaved now.

What a pity, what a pity.

She thought wildly for a while and almost burned the egg roll. When she came to her senses, she asked Nanabaru Takeshi: "What should we do now? Should we wait until the weekend? You are blind now, and I don't feel comfortable taking her on a long trip. How about I take a day off?"

Takeshi Nanahara thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Forget it, it doesn't matter if you wait a few more days. I have taken so much money from her anyway. I will help her find her mother these days. Then she will just make a decision Just make a decision."

"Is it easy to find her?" Qingjian Liuli asked with concern, "Didn't I say that her mother was not found in the previous special nursing homes?"

Takeshi Nanabaru smiled confidently and said: "It shouldn't be difficult. The relationship between the girl with gold-rimmed glasses doesn't need to be wasted. Just follow the birth record of Yuki Kakumaru. It may be a bit troublesome, but it's definitely not difficult. I haven't found it before. , that’s because the welfare agency is careless, I guess I just made a few random calls and couldn’t find anyone, I’m at least a hundred times more professional than them.”

…………

Yuki Kakumaru dragged her suitcase all the way back to Okisaka Fukuko's single apartment and took out her key to open the door. When I walked in, I saw that Okisaka Fukuko had already prepared dinner - a very simple dinner, grilled tofu with minced meat, fried chicken and potato and seaweed soup, with some pickled vegetables and freshly cooked rice.

"I'm back." Kakumaruyuki whispered and put the suitcase in a corner of the entrance.

"Dinner is ready, wash your hands and eat quickly." Okisaka Fukuko didn't ask her where she went, and said with a slight smile, which she was quite used to. She was a company employee turned housewife. She and her husband broke up amicably because of her infertility and then transferred to a regular inspection job. She used to welcome her husband home like this on a daily basis, and she also wanted to welcome her children home like this, but unfortunately it was no longer possible.

Kakumaru Yuki immediately ran to wash her hands, came back and sat at the table after a while, and silently ate the meal with Okisaka Fukuko, and Okisaka Fukuko didn't show any affection towards her, only occasionally adding soup to her, looking at her tenderly. Looking at her, the apartment is small, and eating a simple meal together in silence can make the atmosphere very warm. Yuki Kakumaru likes this feeling very much, and it feels like this place is home.

If the couple who came to adopt a child at Mitani Special Nursing Home could give her the same feeling as Fukuko Okisaka, maybe she would be willing to act cute and try to get into that family.

Dinner time ended soon, Kakumaru Yuki stopped Okisaka Fukuko's attempt to wash the dishes, and asked her to sit down and rest while she washed the dishes. While she was washing the dishes, Okisaka Fukuko finally asked softly: "What do you want?" Have you left?"

Kakumaru Yuki is short and small, and the pool designed for adults is not suitable for her. She is currently stepping on a small bench. After hearing this, she stopped her dexterous movements and whispered: "Wait until you get hurt." I’ll leave now, there is a senior who is willing to take me to Asahikawa River.”

"Really?" Okisaka Fukuko was lost for a moment, then smiled, "It doesn't matter as long as my waist doesn't move violently. You should go early. She...your mother must miss you too."

"Okay, but don't be such a good person in the future. Being a small patrol officer is just a part-time salary, so you don't have to work so hard." Kakumaru Yuki's nose felt a little sore for no reason, but he kept calm and didn't want to talk more about leaving. But my heart began to waver again.

"Stop stealing things and cheating money. You are so smart. When you get there, you should study hard and strive to get into a prestigious school and join a big company and bank in the future." Fukuko Okisaka warned seriously.

"I understand. I won't cheat indiscriminately anymore, and I don't want to be a bad person." Kakumaruyuki said softly, "You don't have to worry about me, I can live a good life wherever I am."

The conversation came to an end here. After she washed the dishes, she took out half a box of strawberries from the refrigerator, washed them and put them on a plate. She cut them in half neatly with a knife, inserted toothpicks, and gave them to Okisaka Fukuko. Eat and watch TV with her.

Okisaka Fukuko smiled tenderly at her, pushed the plate towards her, and motioned for her to eat too, while she ate the small snack while pointing at the TV and commenting on the characters in the TV series. As Yuki Kakumaru sipped the sweet strawberries, she couldn't help but express some opinions. She felt that the filming of this TV series was a bit fake, as if the conversation just now didn't happen.

Watching TV dramas passed the time, and the time soon came to almost ten o'clock. They went to wash up together again. Okisaka Fukuko slept in the bedroom, and Kakumaru Yuki slept in the living room. Okisaka Fukuko originally wanted her to sleep in the bedroom, but she refused. ——She lay on the thick mattress that Fukuko Okisaka had specially laid out for her. She carefully took out the wrinkled half of the photo and looked at it. She couldn't help but be shaken again.

She stole all the way from Tokyo to Hirano, just to fulfill her childhood dream. Now she was only a few hours away from her goal. Should she stop like this?

She didn't know what happened between her father and mother back then. Her father never said anything, but judging from the photos, it was probably that the relationship broke down. Her mother didn't want her back then and ran away to a foreign land alone. Isn't it out of necessity? Are you expecting her to go?

I’m a bit reluctant to leave there, should I still go?

But if he doesn't go, he has no reason to stay...

…………

She was struggling, and the time quickly came to Saturday noon.

The school had a short weekend, which lasted a day and a half. Qingmi Liuli ran home to pack her things after eating. It didn't take long to get a huge hiking bag and carry it directly to the Nanabahara Wu family.

Takeshi Nanahara patted the huge hiking bag and said strangely: "We are just going to the Asahikawa River. It only takes about four hours by train. We can be back tomorrow afternoon at the latest. You are moving your family there. ?"

Qingjian Liuli opened the mountaineering bag for him to touch, and said proudly: "If you want to go on a long trip, of course you must be well prepared. I have been planning for several days! You touch it, here are beef jerky, chocolate and snacks. We will be hungry on the way. It can replenish your physical strength; here is red bean soup, oolong tea and purified water. We can drink it if we are thirsty on the way, so we will not be short of water;

This is a picnic cloth. If we are tired, we can sit on it and rest without worrying about soiling our clothes; this is a small blanket. If you and Axue are sleepy on the way, you can cover it to sleep; this is a first aid kit. If there is anyone on the way, If you are injured, you can treat it immediately; here are flashlights and emergency lights. If you get lost at night, you can use it for lighting..."

"Don't you have a fishing rod?" Takeshi Nanahara asked after touching it randomly.

Qing Jian Liuli was digging out a large bundle of ropes, and was about to introduce the importance of bringing ropes when traveling far away. When there are too many people, you can tie up Takeshi Nanabahara, or if he is too annoying on the way, just hang him. He heard a strange voice and said: "hairtail fish" What’s the pole for?”

Takeshi Nanahara couldn't help but laugh and said: "You are going to go camping anyway, and I just want to go fishing for fun."

"Tch, don't eat it or use it until you have the ability." Qingjian Liuli packed up the hiking bag with dissatisfaction and zipped it up again.

"It's not like we don't have money. We can just go empty-handed for the four-hour journey. Carrying such a big bag is just asking for trouble." Takeshi Nanahara was even more disdainful, "Carry it by yourself on the way. If you can't carry it, just drag it. Don't Count on me for help.”

"Who cares about your help? Just take care of yourself." Qingjian Liuli didn't care about this weight and said directly, "Follow me closely on the road. When there are many people, just hold my clothes. Don't go out and help others find it." Mom, if you look back, you will lose yourself."

After a pause, she warned worriedly, "If you get lost, have someone take you to the nearest station storage point. I will definitely look for you then."

"Okay, I'm so verbose. I've said this for the fifth time. I can't throw it away even if you throw it away." Takeshi Nanahara replied, patted himself, recalling the strictness of security checks in this era, and felt that his body was in pieces. It should be no problem to get on the train, I really plan on going empty-handed.

Qingjian Liuli snorted and prepared to wait for Takeshi Nanahara to get lost, so she hid aside and watched the excitement, and then went to pick him up when he got anxious. Then she looked out the window and hesitated: "Will she come? She must not come. Bar?"

The previous agreement was this weekend, Qingjian Liuli also sent another letter stating the meeting place and time, and now the time is almost up.

Takeshi Nanabahara didn't care and said with a smile: "She will definitely come. Even if she wants to be with Okisaka Fukuko, it would be a pity not to take a look. Why would she go there anyway?"

"Then have you found her mother?" Qingjian Liuli asked curiously.

"Of course, don't you trust me to do things?" Takeshi Nanabahara said with a smile, "I sent and received a few faxes in the name of the Hirano Police Station and it was settled."

Well, that being said, the process was actually quite complicated. It took him two full days to follow Yuki Kakumaru's birth records, find out her mother's medical insurance records, then go from medical insurance to social security, and then sort out her During the process of multiple social security changes and mergers, it was not until they discovered that her name had changed that they determined her mother's approximate location - a small town surrounding the Asahikawa River. It was completely different from the address and name in most of her official registrations. At this time, the official Record updates are too slow.

So it’s no wonder that welfare agencies can’t be found. Japan has been engaged in social security integration for the past seven or eight years. It wants to integrate the five major categories of social security. The information is old and new. In addition, there is no Internet connection between regions, and communication is completely poor. People often change their names indiscriminately, creating a complete mess. If it weren't for a powerful agency like the police station that is really difficult to trace, sometimes the name Wu Teng'an would even have to be used to get a certain link to move.

Qingjian Liuli couldn't trust Nanabaru Takeshi's character, but she had never doubted his ability, so she immediately asked out of curiosity: "How is her mother doing now?"

Takeshi Nanahara pondered for a moment and shook his head: "I can't say, I don't know whether it's good news or bad news for her. Let her make her own judgment when the time comes!"

They were chatting, and through the window they saw Yuki Kakumaru slowly walking towards him dragging his suitcase. The expression on his face was gloomy, and it seemed that he finally decided to take a look.

After all, that was her only spiritual support during the two years she spent in the special nursing home.
