He picked up the statement on the table, stood up, and said, "Our conversation ends here."
You will be prosecuted and imprisoned as the perpetrator in this case.
"You're still going to sentence me?"
Endo Shogo was somewhat surprised.
He thought that since the truth had been seen through by the other party, he would no longer have to bear the blame.
Kiyoshi Kaneda shrugged and said, "Of course."
The current situation is that even if you don't want to admit it, the higher-ups will definitely force this case on you.
He walked towards the door, and before opening it, he uttered his final words: "That's politics."
Tokyo has seen cases with even higher death tolls, but those cases were often caused by single, sudden events.
The fact that a "fox" could commit crimes repeatedly over several days is unprecedented in modern Japanese history.
Unfortunately, the Metropolitan Police Department still can't find a trace of him.
Therefore, in the case of the murders of Nishimura Kei and the other two, since someone has come forward to confess to being the murderer, the higher-ups of the Metropolitan Police Department will definitely seize this opportunity and identify him as the real culprit.
Even if Kiyoshi Kaneda reports the results of the investigation truthfully, it will not change this decision.
Endo Shogo sat alone on the cold interrogation chair, feeling no joy of "getting what he wanted," only boundless despair.
Does a country ruled by these insects have a future?
At that moment, he truly hoped that the fox could wipe out the swarm of insects.
But he knew in his heart that it was unrealistic.
The fox was ultimately alone; avoiding arrest by the Metropolitan Police Department was already the limit.
Endo sighed inwardly and got up to return to the temporary detention cell.
Chapter 59 This is the backbone of a philosopher
Wednesday, April 16th.
The familiar dream receded like the tide with the ringing of the phone alarm. Qingze opened his eyes, his consciousness quickly rising from the deep sea of sleep.
It sank again last night.
He could clearly feel that he was 456 meters deep in that dream.
This feeling of getting stronger every day is like the finest wine, irresistible.
He got up briskly, changed his clothes, and began his unchanging daily routine.
When he returned home, he had already earned four red name tags.
There were no humans, only rats and cockroaches providing the labels.
He had never paid attention to those things before, but now that he was seriously searching, he discovered that the number of rats and cockroaches in the city was far greater than he had imagined; they were practically everywhere.
At his current pace, it's estimated that it will be difficult to eradicate them completely.
With these jumbled thoughts swirling in his mind, he kept working, quickly preparing breakfast.
He then packed Chizuru Tsukishima's portion into a bento box, put it in his briefcase, and began to enjoy his own breakfast.
……
In the morning, the bright and warm sunshine shone through the sparse clouds, gilding the cherry blossoms blooming on the branches of the campus with a warm golden edge.
Day students, carrying their schoolbags, gathered in twos and threes, chatting excitedly as they entered the school gate.
Qingze parked his motorcycle, picked up his briefcase, and headed towards the teaching building.
After changing into indoor shoes in the shoe cabinet area, he hadn't walked far when he caught a glimpse of a familiar green tag in the hallway.
【Saintess of Light】
"Maeda."
He shouted quickly.
Hearing the voice, Yuki Maeda, who was chatting with Yumeko Matsuo and others, turned around and immediately greeted them in unison with her friends, "Good morning, Aozawa-sensei."
"Good morning."
Aozawa stepped forward, his gaze sweeping over Matsuo Yumeko and the others.
They immediately understood, and with smiles, slipped aside, leaving room for conversation.
Aozawa took out a stack of printed papers from his briefcase and handed them to Maeda Yuki. "This is a set of math assignments I made for each of you based on your last test scores."
When we get to class, please distribute these to the students. Today's morning study session is to complete these.
"Teacher, you're ready so quickly?"
Yuki Maeda's face was filled with surprise.
She was well aware of the immense workload involved in creating questions tailored to each student's specific weaknesses.
She felt it was normal to delay for a week.
Qingze smiled, as if he had only done a trivial thing: "As long as you stay up late more, there won't be any problems."
These words, like a pebble thrown into a lake, created ripples in Yuki Maeda's heart.
The way she looked at Qingze instantly changed, and her admiration deepened.
What a dedicated and responsible teacher...
Qingze glanced at the label above her head without making it obvious.
The green light was steady and did not flicker.
He felt a little disappointed.
To be honest, of all the color-coded labels he's encountered so far, the way he obtains the power of the green label is the most challenging for him.
If there is a time limit for triggering, then the tag above Hoshino Saori's head should theoretically have a longer interval before it can provide mental boost again.
But she was the only one among the four who provided two boosts.
He could only say that the power of the green label is closely related to people's emotional fluctuations, which is why it seems so elusive.
Qingze suppressed these thoughts and smiled at Maeda Yuuki, "Then I'll trouble you."
"It's not troublesome at all!"
Yuki Maeda shook her head, a genuine smile on her face.
Qingze continued walking up the stairs.
As soon as he left, Matsuo Yumeko and the others immediately swarmed around him like birds returning to their nest.
"Yuuki-chan, is the teacher going to give us another surprise test?"
Matsuo Yumeko's face was filled with terror, and she didn't even dare to glance at the stack of papers in Maeda Yuki's hand, as if looking at them for even a second longer would result in "mental pollution".
Yuki Maeda reassured her, "No, this is homework that the teacher assigned specifically based on each of our individual situations."
"what!"
Matsuo Yumeko's face instantly fell, and she wailed, "Isn't Aozawa-sensei assigning a bit too much homework...?"
The girl next to me teased, "Oh? Didn't you say you really liked Aozawa-sensei?"
"I absolutely hate this!"
Yumeko Matsuo loudly complained.
She just wanted to spend her high school years without any worries.
In the past, most of the teachers I encountered adopted the attitude of "I won't force you to learn if you don't want to," and we got along peacefully.
Her exam results were poor, but when she got home, her parents would only say a few words and wouldn't delve into it further.
In this respect, she is much happier than her brother, who would be "criticized" by his parents if he didn't do well on a test.
Yumeko Matsuo has always been quite proud of this.
Looking at her friend's exaggerated expression, Yuki Maeda couldn't help but laugh and said, "I really like that about the teacher; she seems very responsible."
……
Upon arriving at the classroom, Maeda Yuki did not rush to distribute the assignments.
There was still some time before morning self-study, and many students were still engaged in their morning club activities.
The students didn't return to their classrooms until just before the start of morning self-study.
Maeda Yuki then picked up the stack of math problems that Aozawa had given her and began distributing them one by one according to the names on them.
She started from the main entrance of the classroom and went all the way to the seats by the window, and wherever she went, there was a scene of "wailing and lamentation".
The girls looked at the math problems on the paper and all praised Teacher Qingze's "great achievements".
She walked to the second-to-last row, by the window, and handed over the homework with the name "Hoshino Saori" written on it, saying softly, "Hoshino-san, this is your homework."
"When the thesis of the exercise set and the antithesis of sleep reach a consensus during morning self-study, the cunning of reason completes the sublation of the dialectic of youth. This assignment is nothing more than the self-expansion of the world spirit in the field of algebra."
Saori Hoshino subconsciously replied with a philosophical quote she had just "realized".
It wasn't that she wanted to show off her literary skills; she was just too nervous and didn't know what to say, so she could only quote famous sayings.
Yuki Maeda was a little confused by what she said, but with her good upbringing, she sincerely expressed her feelings: "It sounds very reasonable."
It seems that Hoshino-kun has the potential to become a writer.
Upon receiving such praise, Hoshino Saori was overjoyed, feeling that the class president was truly a kind person who understood people's hearts.
Maeda Yuuki handed the last assignment to Yato-hime.
"Thank you."
Yatohime's response was as brief as ever.
Yuki Maeda responded with a gentle, clear smile, like the morning light, and said, "You're welcome."
So dazzling!
