Tokyo Police

v17 Chapter 38: Hojo sensei

Akio Kuroda vaguely remembers the first night he came to the Tokyo Detention Center. At that time, he was lying in a single cell with only three pings, staring at the bright moon outside the window, and fell into a long period of contemplation. Until dawn, Kuroda never felt sleepy.

"Everyone finishes washing as soon as possible, and starts breakfast in 15 minutes..."

Hearing the prompt from the broadcast, Kuroda, who had not slept all night, slowly packed his bedding and placed it in the designated position. Immediately afterwards, Kuroda came to the faucet again and started to wash. After he had done all this, Kuroda felt that he finally had some energy. After the cell door opened slowly, Kuroda left the cell with some hesitation, and then stood outside the door, waiting for the criminal officer's routine inspection.

"Everyone, line up, now go to breakfast, please be quiet!"

After hearing the criminal officer's reminder, everyone lined up one at a time and started to leave the prison where they were, then passed through one iron gate after another, and began to move towards the cafeteria. The newly arrived Kuroda just followed in the queue and came to the cafeteria in a daze.

"Everyone follows the queue... each is only allowed to take his share..."

Under the reminder of the criminal officer, everyone followed the queue and moved forward slowly, as did Akio Kuroda. I saw that there were people in front of me with dinner plates coming to form the line, and then they found a seat and sat down. Kuroda turned his head to the side and quietly surveyed the contents of the plates of the prisoners who had already received food. It seems to be rice, thick egg yaki, and a bowl of soup and pickles or something. Although it is not a delicacy, the prisoners who got the food all ate it very sweetly.

"Ah... how come it's just a little bit, can't you give an extra piece?"

"Sorry, everyone's thick egg burn is the same..."

"Really, such a small piece of thick egg is not enough to eat at all. Hey... Can't you give me an extra piece?"

The man standing in front of Kuroda saw the thick omelette on the dinner plate, and suddenly unbuttoned his clothes to deliberately reveal part of the tattoo on his chest. But unfortunately, the prisoner responsible for distributing the food was not to be outdone, and then rolled up his sleeves on his own.

Seeing that the other party didn't seem to be a good person, the man who was still complaining just now held up his plate and gave up his seat, while Kuroda stepped forward and placed his plate in the hands of the prisoner who distributed the objects. .

After the other party put a thick egg on Kuroda's plate, before Kuroda turned to leave, the man in front of him suddenly stretched out his hand and burned the thick egg that belonged to Kuroda. After entering his own plate, he said to the prisoner in charge of distributing food with a deliberately resentful expression on his face:

"Hey, why is his thick egg burnt bigger than mine?"

"Everyone is the same, don't mess around!"

"I'm messing around, it's obviously because the food you send is different..."

"You guy, are you looking for trouble? If you don't eat yourself, there will be people waiting to eat!"

"Say that I'm messing around... I just can't stand your unfair practices..."

Seeing that the prisoner standing in front of him just wanted to do something, Kuroda was extremely angry, but... he still hesitated and endured.

"That...let's forget it... Anyway...I'm not too hungry anyway! Forget it!"

...

Just as Kuroda lowered his head and tried his best to suppress his anger and said something against his heart, a voice suddenly came from behind him, which made him have no premonition.

"Criminal... Could you please come here..."

"Eh? Ah... Mr. Hojo, may I ask... what's the matter with you?"

"Hey, here... a gentleman seems to have stole someone else's thick egg burnt... and disturbed the order of everyone's queue... so... can you please solve it?"

"Uh... Hey, Mr. Hojo, I'll take care of it!"

Seeing that the criminal officer in charge of monitoring the prisoner was so respectful to a prisoner, Kuroda couldn't help but feel extremely surprised, but... Soon, the surprise in Kuroda's heart turned into worry, and I saw the prisoner. Under the guidance of the prisoner called Mr. Hojo, the officer went straight to Kuroda, and then... Mr. Hojo pointed to the prisoner who stole the Kuroda thick egg yaki just now and said:

"It's him, who stole this gentleman's thick egg yaki just now... and also questioned that Mr. Katsushika, who was in charge of the kitchen work, gave him a small amount of thick egg yaki..."

"Hey, don't you dare to care about my business..."

"Be honest, how dare you talk to Mr. Hojo like that!"

...

Seeing that the troubled prisoner was extremely dissatisfied with Hojo, the criminal officer quickly reprimanded the prisoner, and then apologized to Mr. Hojo.

"Ah... It's okay, I think you should still fully listen to the views of both parties, so that it's fair. But... I remember that there are clear rules in the detention center, no one can accept food donated by others, and at the same time You can't give your own food to others, I'm right! The reason for such a rule is to prevent people from using food to form a gang, so... The two thick egg buns on this gentleman's plate... ...and please explain it yourself!"

Seeing the criminal officer looking at him with unkind eyes, the troublemaker couldn't help but feel a little scared and said:

"Yes... I'm sorry, I thought it was someone else who didn't want it, so... I'll just give it back to someone else..."

"Sorry, I……"

After hearing Mr. Hojo's explanation, Kuroda realized that food exchange was not allowed in the detention center. But... Maybe it's because he is worried that he will be retaliated by the other party. Kuroda still dare not tell the fact that he was robbed after that. What I gave to you was still stolen... Say! "

"Uh...he wanted to give it to me, I said no, and he just put it on my dinner plate!"

Hearing the opponent's rake, Kuroda couldn't help clenching his fists.

"I'm sorry, what I saw just now was completely different from what the two gentlemen described. I just saw that he stole this gentleman's thick egg burning..."

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault, please stop meddling!"

Kuroda glanced at Mr. Hojo with a big head, and then once again denied the other party's righteous words of help.

"Hey, don't you dare to tell the truth now? If you don't show some color to the bullying guy today, this kind of person will only become more and more arrogant. So Mr. Xing Wuguan, it's still up to me. Answer on behalf of this gentleman, if you really want to take revenge on someone for what happened today, please come to me directly, don't disturb other people..."
