I’M Really Helpless In Tokyo

At noon the next day, Room 102 of the Tibetan apartment.

"What? You cos into Diablo, tied them into a'Jesus car' drag racing, and you are still sitting on the burning tires? Hey, hey, the head of the 71 convenience store in the Kanto region who tortured customers, I am The first time I saw it, it was really cruel, hahahaha."

On the phone, Higashino Kohei laughed exaggeratedly.

"Hey, don't mention it, at the convenience store, even if the three guys went to clarify and apologize early in the morning, I can't be the store manager. It would be nice to let me do hourly work in the future."

"Convenience store career is destroyed" Araki Sosuke, rolling around on the tatami with the phone, said with a sigh.

"It's not good for you to look for a job blindly like this. What about the guy before you get to the second place? How about discussing it and learning from it...The one on my side doesn't have any position to advise you... That guy is a full-time civil servant anyway."

Kohei Higashino suggested.

"Is it before the second? I haven't seen you for a while, I heard that the guy is getting mixed up..."

Thinking of this, Sosuke Araki dialed the phone called "Ryoma before the Second".

Before the 2nd, Ryoma was also one of the brothers who grew up in the orphanage with Sosuke Araki and Kopei Higashino.

Unlike the violent duo of "Yokohama Two-headed Dogs", Ryoma, who is a few years older than the two, is unexpectedly talented in learning this aspect.

After graduating from high school, the guy was admitted to the Japanese Metropolitan Police Academy in Tokyo as a guardian.

Currently, he works as an inspector at the police station next to Shinjuku Gyoen...that is, an ordinary police officer.

On the other side of the phone, Ryoma enthusiastically stated that he was free now and made an appointment to have lunch together.

At this moment, someone rang the doorbell of the room.

On the screen of the video doorbell, there is a man in a police uniform.

Tiaozi came to my door... Could it be that I was found to have illegally dumped garbage?

Do you want to pretend to be there?

Impossible, I have fully confirmed that there is no identity revealing item inside.

Calm down, Araki Sosuke, as a repeat offender, this dignity and self-confidence is still necessary.

Thinking this way, Araki Sosuke opened the door with a guilty conscience and without changing his face.

"Residents? Great. We knocked on a lot of doors, but none of them seemed to live... Do you usually have contact with Ms. Okimoto Rika in Room 304?"

304, seems to be the tall woman.

"I just moved here not long ago, and I saw it through the window several times from downstairs. It seems to be a tall woman with short hair... What's wrong?"

"New residents? Then I guess I can't ask for any useful information... It's a pity..."

While recording the testimony in his notebook, the young policeman sighed.

"The room is a little messy, let's go out and talk."

Araki Sosuke closed the door, handed a cigarette to the opponent expertly, and walked outside.

There are still a lot of "goods" in the room that have not had time to put in. If someone finds out the clues from the packaging, you will be in jail.

The uncle of the household diagonally across the door was also being questioned by another policeman.

In front of the Zangqian apartment, several police cars and ambulances were parked at the door with their sirens flashing.

Many residents and pedestrians passing by in the surrounding neighborhoods watched with their heads outside the door of the apartment.

Araki Zongsuke put the cigarette on the other party, and then answered some routine questions according to the other party's request, most of which were about the situation of the 304 households.

At this moment, several medical staff walked down carrying a body bag on a stretcher.

Looking at the shape, there should be a petite woman inside.

"What's wrong? Did something happen?"

The two people who were smoking under the eaves quickly let go.

Seeing the body bag, Sosuke Araki whispered curiously.

The young policeman hesitated and said in a low voice, "Hey, Ms. Okinawa Rika’s mother has not been able to contact her for more than a month, so she came over from her hometown to check the situation. It turned out that the door was locked from the inside and waited for the police to open the door. I found out that she had hanged herself by the window a long time ago...

"Huh? That's really a shame."

Araki Sosuke also looked surprised and regretful. Although he had only said a few words through the door, people who had only seen it recently were gone.

The suicide rate in Japan is extremely high, and the police are already familiar with suicide cases, and they soon loaded the corpses away.

After leaving a business card to Sosuke Araki, so that he could contact him at any time if he remembered any information, the young policeman also left with the team.

"According to the degree of decay of the corpse, it has been dead for at least a month. The smell in the room is really...young, like bacon, what a pity..."

What Araki Sosuke didn't hear was that when he left, the young policeman was still reading the information recorded in his notebook and muttering words in a low voice.

...

"Life is really impermanent."

Half an hour later, Sosuke Araki squatted and smoked depressedly at the gate of the Tibetan apartment.

Although I have only seen it a few times from a distance and said a few words through the door, I can feel that the lady of 304 is a very gentle person. It is really a pity that she committed suicide like this.

Just when he was hurting the spring and the autumn, a black BMW of the latest model stopped in front of him. The smooth and delicate paint surface reflected his frowning face.

"Just park the car in front of others, is it great to have money?"

Araki Sosuke, who was already in a bad mood, immediately put on a bad face.

"Oh, Zongsuke, why did he look like he had pooped at noon."

The window was rolled down, and sitting in the driver's seat was a man with a hard face, a sense of justice, and the words "I am a policeman" on his face.

"Dragon... Ryoma?"

Araki Sosuke looked at each other in surprise, the smoke in his mouth dropped.

The tough man in the car, who was wearing a police uniform and looking upright, was his best friend.

Having been in the orphanage together for so many years, he never thought that Longma, this guy, would one day pick him up in a BMW.

"The latest BMW is different...this interior, this engine sound..."

"This is the latest model with a 360-degree camera... Hey, be careful, don't suddenly speed up in the city... The paint is very expensive..."

The black BMW was driving on the road, and the person in the driver's seat had become Sosuke Araki.

Soon, the two drove to pack some Chinese food, and came to the bachelor's apartment next to the police station.

Before the second, Ryoma’s bachelor apartment was as messy as Sosuke Araki’s "doghouse".

The two of them used to pack food and have dinner here.

Because you can take off your shirt and throw off your arms to play.

As soon as he entered the door, Sosuke Araki immediately opened the small refrigerator in the corner and rummaged in it.

In addition to beer, there are all kinds of suspicious bottles and cans in the refrigerator.

"Fortunately for you guy, I just took a shift today...what wine would you like to drink..."

Seeing Sosuke Araki looking curiously at the things in the refrigerator, Ryoma explained to him one by one.

"These bottles are sake, red snake wine, eel wine... You said this? This is the snake whip wine that I just soaked and I can't drink it... What, don't you know what snakes have? The scales are exposed under the chrysanthemum One is...that can’t be touched. It’s a high-tech product from “Qiang” when I broke the illegal organization last time.

With that said, Ryoma crossed his hands in front of him decently before the second, and gestured for an electric hip.
