Tokyo Police

v5 Chapter 8: Observation

"The lady played a piece of "Water Demon" in the lounge just now. To be honest, I'm not a fan of classical music, but I can hear that the lady's piano skills are superb, and there is nothing in the music. It revealed some sad emotions! To be honest, this was the first time I felt the emotion of the performer from the music, and her performance gave me an experience I had never had before..."

Lin Xiuyi introduced it to Shohei Kono. As a child who grew up with his grandmother, Lin Xiuyi never had the opportunity to appreciate piano solo from a distance.

"Sad? I think the two ladies over there seem to be having a good time chatting with the man I just met!" Shohei Kono turned his head and observed it for a while, then asked Lin Xiu suspiciously.

"Words and expressions can conceal people's true thoughts, but when playing music, it is a rare opportunity to open up to others..." Lin Xiuyi said seriously.

"But I heard that "Ghost of the Night" was originally a sad song, isn't it the influence of the music itself!" Shohei Kono asked Lin Xiuyi for advice again.

Lin Xiu smiled and did not answer Kono's question. This kind of feeling thing really can't be explained clearly in words. However, from the time he was listening to the music in the lounge, the girl named Yingzi aroused enough interest in Lin Xiuyi.

Actually, not only Sakurako, but also her companion—the girl named Erika. In the lounge just now, when most of the audience were listening carefully to Sakurako's performance, she was absent-mindedly looking at her phone. But that doesn't explain anything.

Besides these two beautiful ladies, the man who came to chat up also aroused Lin Xiuyi's curiosity. Is it really good that the scene of hitting on a strange **** the train happens in a place like the Cassiopeia luxury train? Anyway, it's a bit awkward.

The most important thing is that the girl named Erika seems to be very enthusiastic to match up with her friend Sakurako and the strange gentleman, meet a man who is in love on the train, and start a romantic love from then on. It is a common bridge, but if it happens in real life, it will make people feel very surprised.

At this moment, on this luxurious dining car, almost all the passengers on the train gathered. While talking with Kono, Lin Xiu secretly looked at the passengers on the train. Everyone should have a good life. After all, if the fare of Cassiopeia is compared with low-cost airlines, whether it is speed or cost performance, it is almost uncompetitive.

He swept his gaze to the corner, and a passenger who had just met in the lounge nodded to him as a greeting. In the lounge, Lin Xiuyi once asked the other party whether the "Ghost of the Night" suite was played by Sakura, and got a positive answer from the other party. From this, it can be judged that the other party seems to have some understanding of this piece. of.

"Do you know the gentleman over there?" Kono noticed Lin Xiuyi's actions. He was a person who likes to communicate with each other. As a civil servant, Kono has been seizing every opportunity to expand his contacts and taking the initiative to get to know Lin Xiuyi. for this purpose.

If there are other people on the train that Lin Xiuyi knows, Kono naturally hopes that Lin Xiuyi can introduce them to him. Because after he returned to China, he had heard from the alumni of the Ministry of Justice that Lin Shuichi, the new Minister of Justice and Nobuko Ando, ​​visited Minister Ando shortly after he took office. Therefore, Kono believes that Lin Xiuyi and the Minister of Justice may have some close personal relationship. That's why he was very attentive to Lin Xiuyi.

"I can't talk about acquaintance, it's just that we had a relationship just now!" Lin Xiu turned around and explained to Shohei Kono.

"Xiuichi-kun, have you noticed his cufflinks, the solid gold custom made by Deakin & Francis, if it's just that, it's fine, but the JR logo on it is a good indication of the other party's identity. If I guess If it's true, the other party should be a high-level executive of East RB Passenger Railway Co., Ltd...." Kono Shohei said half-jokingly.

"You have good observation skills!" Lin Xiuyi said in surprise.

"It's just the basic skills of the bureaucrats of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. It's not worth mentioning! By the way, Shuichi-kun, it's a pleasure to meet you. After returning to Tokyo, everyone should keep in touch!" Kono looked at the time, and the two of them had almost drank. , In addition, everyone has just met, and there are not many common topics, so we simply separate them and find opportunities to interact with each other in the future.

After parting with Kono, Lin Xiuyi returned to his box and drank coffee for a while in the tea room on the second floor. About an hour later, Lin Xiuyi walked into the bathroom. After putting in the hot water, he immersed his entire body in the hot water.

The experience of taking a bath on a train is really rare. Lin Xiuyi soaked in the warm water for a long time and felt a sense of relaxation and comfort that he had not seen for a long time. He was thinking that if he could drink a bottle of iced chocolate milk after he got out of prison, then everything would be more perfect (PS: see "Daytime Bathhouse Wine")

The train is expected to arrive in Aomori City at 8:00 the next morning. After Lin Xiuyi came out of the bathroom, he was lying on the bed and using his mobile phone to pass the time~lightnovelpub.net~ It’s probably been a long time since I’ve traveled far, lying in bed. Lin Xiuyi was never sleepy, so he simply watched the newly published "Girls' Criminal" to pass the time. As usual, Lin Xiuyi fell asleep after a while.

Although "Girl Criminal" has gained a certain popularity now, it is no longer the Xiaopujie when it first came out, but it still does not suit Lin Xiuyi's appetite. For Lin Xiuyi, the hypnotic effect of Girl Criminal is comparable to sleeping pills. Even at the most stressful moment of the Tokyo subway bombing, Lin Xiuyi was able to sleep peacefully with the help of "Girls Criminal". Of course, this kind of thing must not be told to Yuko.

……

After nightfall, the constellation Cassiopeia galloped under the vast sky reflected by the moonlight, and the lights of most of the boxes in the car were turned off. Many passengers have also fallen asleep, and in the carriage, the corridor lights have gradually dimmed.

Yingzi, who has something in her heart, tossed and turned in the box and couldn't sleep at night. When she thought of tomorrow, she would say goodbye to this country forever, to say goodbye to her struggle and hard work, Yingzi's heart was bleeding. He Fenglan is just like her child, she can't bear He Fenglan's collapse after she left.

"Perhaps I should explain to Erika, at least there is hope for Feng Lan to continue the business in her hands." Thinking of this, Sakurako got up from the bed, put on a yukata and left the box.

She walked to the door of the box next door. She wanted to knock on the door, but she saw the sliding door swaying back and forth with the inertia of the train, and it didn't seem to be closed. Curious Sakurako gently pushed open the sliding door of Eri-chan's box.

"what……!"

A shrill scream resounded through the quiet carriage, and the peace on the Cassiopeia seat was completely broken.
