The fastest update to the latest chapter of Tokyo Police!

"A few days ago, the Toshima incident, which was once deadlocked and even triggered a diplomatic turmoil, finally came to an end. After the construction giant Toshima Construction fully transferred the contracting rights of the Naizhi high-speed rail project to **** Construction Group, the share price of Toshima Construction also sang all the way. According to the official in charge of the incident from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the personnel of Toshima Construction who had been detained by Naizhi were about to be released, and the current president of Toshima Construction, Kiyobumi Hosokawa, also announced that he would formally submit his participation to JR East. Regarding the application for the Central Shinkansen plan, according to the relevant information provided by the construction of Toshima, Toshima has changed the main bank of the company from the former Tokyo Central Bank to the United Bank of Japan. Affected by this news, the share price of the Tokyo Central Bank has risen sharply today. fall……"

Watching the news about the construction of Toshima on TV, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but put down the wine glass in his hand and listened carefully. Jingzi, who was sitting across from him, could not help but look at the TV behind him curiously when he saw him.

"What's the matter, is Shuichi-kun also concerned about the construction of Toshima?"

"Uh... not really, I just think that a company that has been sentenced to death before can still be brought back to life. President Hosokawa is really admirable!"

"Hey... I didn't expect you to care about these things!"

"It's not really, I just saw it just now, and I paid a little attention... I really made you laugh, but this time the case can be solved smoothly, I would like to thank you for your help..."

As soon as Lin Xiu finished speaking, he straightened his sitting posture, then picked up the wine glass with both hands and said to Jing Zi.

Jingzi looked at Lin Xiuyi's expression, and then suddenly asked with some displeasure on his face:

"Xiu Yi-kun, is it because I'm your superior that you accompany me to drink out for the purpose of communication?"

"Eh? That...it's not like that!"

But why do I feel that you are always particularly restrained when you see me?

Hearing Jingzi's questioning to him, Lin Xiuyi put down the cup in a little embarrassment. Speaking of which, since Jingzi came back, the atmosphere between the two seems to be really different from before. In fact, even if Jingzi didn't say it, Lin Xiuyi could feel it. It seemed that he and Jingzi could no longer find the kind of intimacy between friends in the past. Instead, it was more polite and unfamiliar among the bureaucrats. Sometimes, even Lin Xiuyi actually felt very awkward.

"Why not! How about we talk about something else today?"

Hearing Jingzi suddenly talk about things other than work, Lin Xiuyi couldn't help but feel a little relieved. He picked up a chicken skewer with spring onions, and then asked rhetorically, pretending to be relaxed:

"Okay, what do you want to talk about?"

"How about talking about the past? I've always been curious, why did Xiu Yijun come to be a policeman?"

"This... Probably because I want to live a stable and secure life! Although it's not bad to be a member of society, but... I always feel that it's easier for civil servants!"

"Oh... that's a rational idea, but Xiu-chan's personality doesn't always feel like that kind of hot-blooded type! Ah... I'm really sorry, I heard the name of Xiu-chan mentioned earlier, and I couldn't help it. Saying it, that... Xiu Yi-kun won't find it too abrupt!"

"It's alright, but... I didn't expect you to have a relationship with Mingmei!"

"Eh? Didn't I tell you before? I still live in Akasaka, and sometimes when I go back from get off work, I often meet Mingmei! But speaking of it, you don't seem to be going to her place very much recently. time...it won't be..."

"This... As you know, her identity is more sensitive. It's really not convenient for me to go to Akasaka, but if I don't have to work, we often go to Yoyogi to meet..."

"Yoyogi? Are you talking about Miko's studio?"

"Hey, but we have a friend who opened a coffee shop there, and Yuko's studio is upstairs from the coffee shop..."

"So smart, Xiu Jiang is so good, if that's the case, even if you go on a date with Ming Mei, no one will doubt anything!"

"That... This little trick is not seen through by a smart person like you at a glance!"

"There, I guessed it because I knew what you were dating! By the way, where is your friend, can you take me to see it next time?"

"Hey...Are you also interested in coffee? I remember you seemed to prefer black tea back then!"

"This... Didn't I go to the United States to study for a while before? Coffee is more popular there. Later, I drank it more often, and slowly I liked it."

"Really? Then I really want to take you to Sakurako's place to see. Her coffee beans are all good things that you can't see on the market, and the roasting time and method are also very particular. Ordinary people, even after taking a sip, can tell the difference!"

"Hey... I really want to try it out after hearing you say that! Speaking of which, since I graduated, I've been busy with my career, and there really isn't anything like repairing sauce in Tokyo. How about my friends! But now, everyone is working in the police system, and it will be much more convenient to connect in the future."

"Um... Sakurako finally has another regular customer!"

...

After the two picked up the wine glasses and had a drink together, Lin Xiuyi remembered that he hadn't asked Jingzi about anything, so he took advantage of the wine and asked Jingzi curiously:

"By the way, Jing Zijiang, where is your hometown, I seem to have never heard of your family before!"

Hearing Lin Xiuyi's question, Jing Zi's face suddenly became solemn, but this was only a momentary thing. She saw that Lin Xiuyi's face was already a little drunk. So he replied to Lin Xiuyi with reservations:

"Me? Actually, I grew up in Kyoto! My father should be a civil servant! But because of his early death, and his mother's grief and poor health, I was a relative for a long time. grew up at home."

"Hey... I'm so sorry~lightnovelpub.net~ brought up something that made you sad!"

Hear Jingzi's answer. Lin Xiuyi said a little apologetically.

"It doesn't matter, these are all things in the past. Later, when I was admitted to Dongda University, I brought my mother to Tokyo and lived together for a while, but after I graduated, my mother lived in a nursing home. If I have time, I will visit her occasionally."

Jingzi drank the wine in his glass with a bit of sadness, and then forcibly endured the grief in his heart, and squeezed a forced smile to Lin Xiuyi, but the tears still fell from the corners of his eyes uncontrollably.

"Ah... Damn it, you asked such an outrageous question!"

While Lin Xiu apologized, he took out a tissue from his bag and handed it to Jingzi. Jingzi thanked Lin Xiuyi gratefully, and then while wiping away his tears, he pretended to be relaxed and said to Lin Xiuyi:

"Let's get here today! It's rare that I have talked to you so much, and I suddenly feel a lot easier in my heart!"
