The years when I was a police academy legend

Chapter 23

10 minutes ago -

Thaa's piercing voice echoed in his ears, but the black-haired man blocked the monitor's sight with his body and lowered his voice:

"How long will it take to invade the system of this building? There is not much time left, I must get the information quickly."

"1 minute." Enoda sent a message,

"I will freeze the surveillance on your side soon... In addition, I have found Marc, he was held hostage, sitting on the chair full of pressure bombs in the locker room on the third floor, bound with Scotch tape. Death if you get up or move."

That's why the man in the surveillance did not dare to move.

"Taya did a good job." Takino Haneto smiled, "Send the location to the police and let them solve it."

Sad Marc, originally he probably wanted to repeat the incident two years ago, and planned to hijack the corridor with bombs in advance, but what he never expected was that in the end he was intercepted by Taya who came out halfway task.

"Have you guessed Taya's purpose?" Enoda asked.

"Almost." Takino Hanren twitched the corner of his mouth,

"Have you found Taya's location?"

"I didn't see the dormitory in the whole building. I'm afraid Taya is either mixed in the crowd, or in a place where other surveillance cameras can't see." Enoda said.

"Very well, then there's only one place to go."

……

10 minutes later, at the rooftop.

As Takino Hanren thought, this should be the last place where Taya stopped.

"How did you find out?" Tsushima asked curiously.

"It started from the night talk at the bar that day - I just remembered it recently." Takino Hanren said,

"You happened to be in the liquor store that day, and you used that bottle of marc brandy to press your signature, is it to remind me [the danger is coming]?"

Tsushima looked at him with a smile, as if waiting for him to continue.

"That matter was put aside in advance, and now both the bombs on my side and the goblet's side have all been dismantled." Takino Hanren looked at him with his arms folded,

"Is there anything else you want to say?"

Fortunately, they pressed the button at the same time at the last moment, preventing the bomb from exploding in time.Juchi Yukino and Goblet were also rescued in time and sent to the hospital for treatment.

At this moment, the police have surrounded the entire building. It stands to reason that Taya, who has lost all means, has nowhere to escape.

But he didn't look like someone who was driven to a desperate situation, and he even looked a little happy.

"Even if you didn't do it, the bomb wouldn't explode." Tsushima Haruka pursed his lips,

"After all, it's not a real bomb, it's just a counterfeit."

His tone didn't sound like he was lying.Takino Haneto thought.

So he went on to ask:

"You are also the one who put my past identity on Heijiro Kikuchi?"

"Well, it's me."

"Why?" Takino Haneto frowned.

"Mr. Takino." Tsushima looked at him, but his tone gradually softened.

"I admit that most people in this world live for themselves. Because the essence of human beings is selfishness, everyone only thinks about their own affairs, and even endangers the fate of others. —Not everyone is as noble as Takino-san, is it?"

"You think too much." Takino Hanren raised his eyebrows.

Tsushima Acupunciator didn't respond to the other party's words, just lowered his head and said softly,

"The second half of my life was given by Mr. Takino."

Takino Haneto was slightly taken aback.

"A few months ago, it was the lowest point of my life. I was scary, weird, and hated everywhere I went - it's funny, all because I came to the fire alone , saved a little girl trapped in a room."

"The girl's parents left without even thanking them, lest I pester them for medical bills. Maybe they were not obliged to pay for my medical bills, but I soon realized - fearless giving is itself a stupid act ...and what is my will to live? It is futile to try to extract even a tiny bit of kindness from this world, as absurd as looking for natural fire in an extremely cold place. I think it may be a good idea to end life. choose."

He smiled and spread out his hands. Under the bandages, the large scars on his arms were still shocking.

"Ah, just think of you as the last hope of a down-and-out writer. Yes, there are no robbers at all. I trapped myself in an elevator on purpose, carrying a bomb, and ridiculously posted a criminal communication— I want someone to exchange my life with the most precious thing. But most people don’t really care, right? They surround the floors below, taking pictures with their mobile phones, talking and laughing about how I don’t The life that exists. The moment when life goes out is like fireworks to them, it is an interesting scene worth watching, and it is also worth mentioning a word or two after dinner."

"I thought no one would care about me, but you stepped up."

It's like a spider's thread hanging from the abyss, even if it's insignificant, it's enough to hold hope.

"...So, thaa also appeared at that time?" Takino Haneto was taken aback for a moment.

"thaa is just an image. And my pen name [Tsushima Haruhiro] is also derived from this." Tsushima Haruka seemed to be in high spirits,

"Takino Hani [takinohani], the four syllables of thaa are all derived from your name, and my pen name Tsushima Haryuu [tsushimaharyuu] also contains the four syllables of thaa, because my life is derived from For you, the meaning of Taya's survival also comes from you."

"Mr. Takino, it's my hope of living."

"Stop talking nasty things." Takino Hanren remained unmoved,

"One yard counts for one yard. At that time, even if I changed to someone else, I would still shoot. I don't care what you did, but what you did still hurt Kikuchi Heijiro. I can't accept your approach."

"Because he didn't pay the price for what he did." Tsushima Junsheng chuckled, "Hey, it's strange to say, so many cases happened before and so many people were killed, Mr. Takino That's all that's been mentioned."

"You are not responsible for every case, and your crime styles have never been the same." Takino Hanren still stared at him,

"Marc learned of the existence of thaa, so he started to imitate thaa to commit crimes, just to lure you out. There are only three cases that you have actually executed, two of which dealt with the members of the black organization who tracked me down, and one was You lured Kitahara Mieko's death. And... you were the one who released Marc."

Takino Hanren paused before continuing:

"I have investigated you. As a computer genius who graduated abroad, you are a better hacker than me. You can do a lot of things by using this."

"Taya has been helping me escape from the black organization, and trying to put my past identity on Heijiro Kikuchi and Taya. And mrac is the real murderer of the serial murder case - I'm right Bar?"

"Hahahahaha... It's no surprise that it's Mr. Takino, who actually guessed it." Needle Tsushima shook the handle in his hand briskly, with a eager smile on his face.

"The bomb under Marc's chair was taken from him on purpose. He originally intended to use that bomb for Yukino Kikuchi, but he didn't expect it to be used on him in the end. As long as I press this, Marc will Completely disappeared from this world, and [Taya] will also be pursued by the black organization as the biggest suspect."

"You're crazy." Takino Haneto gritted his teeth.

"It's just something I've always wanted to do." Tsushima's tone was calm, even a little cheerful,

"Isn't this great? Mr. Takino, as long as I die, you will be able to escape from all this soon, right? A vicious serial murderer like me may not be able to survive in society in the future, right? "

"Evil people are rewarded with evil, and good people finally wash away their slander. This is how all good novels end. This is the best ending."

……

The silence and oppressiveness of the air made people feel a little uncomfortable, even no less than the tension and uneasiness that overflowed when the bomb was dismantled just now.

Is that really the best ending?

No, that never was.

If he really wanted to escape, there was no need to stay in Japan.That man once asked himself if he wanted to live in the flower planter's house, but no matter how hard the organization in black stretched out its hands, it couldn't reach there.

But Takino Haneto refused.

What he wants has never been a simple [place to live in].

"I said, one size fits all."

Takino Haneto suddenly stretched his brows, but his eyes were sharp like a blade,

"Marc will not die, and neither will you. I will not allow you to die here so easily."

Tsushima Haruka was taken aback by the other party's sudden change of attitude.

"I will live instead of Marc and go to the Black Organization to investigate. With my ability, it is not difficult to pretend to be him." Takino Hanren smiled,

"I'm sorry, what I did may disappoint you."

"What are you talking about?" Tsushima asked in surprise,

"The handle is in my hand, I know your marksmanship is particularly accurate, but you are unarmed now, do you still want to stop me?"

"Yeah, I can't stop you." Takino Hanren restrained his smile, and his tone rose slightly,

"But I've never fought alone."

"what--"

Tsushima Zhensheng subconsciously wanted to press the grip, but the next second he felt a sharp pain from his fingertips, and the smell of approaching gunpowder filled his breath, almost causing his brain to fall into a disconnected state. feeling of pain.

At this moment, on the building 700 meters away, the man in the knitted hat put down the sniper rifle in his hand, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Hey, it seems that everything is going well."

—Then it all depends on what that person did.

The sound of the helicopter propeller sounded, and a gust of wind rolled up on the ground.The police surrounded the building long ago, and marc was arrested early.

Now, at the center of everything, only Tsushima Haruhito and Takino Haneto remained.

"you win."

Needle Tsushima's complexion was pale, he smiled helplessly, the smile was a bit fragmented,

"Things are a little bit out of plan... But since it's you, it's not surprising that you would do such unexpected things."

He stepped back step by step, and finally came to the edge of the tall building, like a crumbling crow with broken wings.

"Then, I should go to where I should go earlier."

He let his body lean back and fell from the tall building.

"You stop for me!"

The black-haired man was startled, and rushed up at random, grabbing his hand just as the brown-haired youth fell down—the cement edge that hasn't been repaired all year round is too fragile, even if he His fingertips were so painful that he was still falling bit by bit.

Half of Takino Haneto's body fell out, and he was holding on to the concrete fence with one hand, almost unable to hold on anymore.

The two were suspended in mid-air like this.

"Release." Tsushima Needle said coldly,

"This is my destiny, you shouldn't stop it."

"Go to fucking fate!"

Takino Haneto's hand was in pain, and he felt an unknown fire rushing up in his heart,

"Don't talk to me about fate!! If I had accepted my fate like you, then you would not have seen me who saved you, let alone the me who caught you now—"

"That's just Mr. Takino's life, not mine." Tsushima Haruhiro said softly.

"You're just unlucky."

He twisted his face, but he seemed to think of something, and he laughed inexplicably,

"Live well, I guarantee you will meet a group of better people."

A group of people who are too impulsive, but will always hold you back at critical moments.

A group of people who are careless, but will always help you when you need it.

I hope there will be, there will be bread, and the existence of friends... will definitely appear.

Tsushima Needle lowered his eyes, because of the angle of view, he couldn't see his expression very clearly.

A strange standoff ensued between the two.

Fortunately, at this time, someone finally broke the deadlock.

"You really like to take risks, Takino Hanen."

A strong hand grabbed Takino Hanen's arm, and the black-haired man half-kneeled on the edge of the roof, with a little anger in his black eyes,

"It's not the first time, can you take a little care of your own life?"

——Although even if he said such a thing, he wouldn't necessarily take it to heart, would he?

"I'm very caring, Funataro." Takino Haren laughed loudly,

"Thank you Funataro, you saved my life again, if you do it again, I'm afraid I'll be able to promise you~"

"Don't talk to me! Tell me first and then talk!"

……

It's finally over.

Whether it was [Goblet], Kikuchi Yukino, or Marc and Taya, they all returned to where they should go at this moment.

"Yue Nai!!! You really scared me to death..."

Kikuchi Heijiro hugged his younger sister tightly, tears almost came out of his eyes,

"I told you not to take risks alone! Why don't you listen! Do you know how worried you make me!!"

"...I'm sorry brother, I will definitely not do it next time." Juchi Yukino replied in a low voice with red eyes.

She really didn't want to go through something like this again.

"That's good... Just remember the lesson..."

Takino Yuren stood aside, and Zhu Fu Jingguang was helping him deal with the rubbed wound on his hand, and made a simple bandage.Itahang took the lead to go back to make a statement, and the others would go back to make a statement in turn later.

"It's great, it's the ending where everyone is safe and sound." Matsuda Zhenping heaved a sigh of relief, feeling his back was soaked in cold sweat.

"It's good that everyone is fine, and... the misunderstanding a year ago has finally been resolved." Hagiwara Kenji smiled and looked at Takino Haneto, but found that the latter's face showed no expression, as if he was caught in a mused.

"Hani! Why are you in a daze again! Really... even if you succeed in being a hero, don't pretend to be cold! Answer everyone's questions carefully!" Matsuda Zhenping patted him on the back vigorously, full of emotion Displeasure was written on his face.

"It's not because of this, but of course it would be a great thing to resolve the misunderstanding—thank you, Hiro, your bandaging is as reliable as ever." Takino Haneto withdrew his bandaged hand, showing satisfaction smile.

"Don't be so impulsive next time. If it wasn't for Police Officer Baigui, I'm afraid you would be really in danger." Zhu Fu Jingguang said seriously.

"Okay, okay, I will remember." Takino Yuren had no choice but to agree.

"We should go to the police station later, does Hani want to go together?" Fugu Ling asked.

"I have something to do later, you go back first. There are too many people outside, if I go out now, I'm afraid I will be overwhelmed by the crowd?" Takino Hanren said helplessly.

really.Since Taya claimed that the shot was from him, all misunderstandings about everything have been made public.The only thing that has changed is that the position of gin has been replaced by Taya.

Thaa, also Takino Hane, also Tsushima Haru, is also the pardoner of all crimes.

And now, he has fulfilled his final obligation and should disappear here.

The identities of Taya and Marc were naturally kept secret, so when they were sent to the police car, they were also carried out in secret.Takino Haneto was standing next to the police inspector Aono Kihara and watched everything quietly - all of Marc's communications were handed over, he was struggling and cursing, and was finally stunned by the electric baton before being dragged to the car locked up.

Compared with the fiercely resisting Marc, Tsushima Haruhito seemed extraordinarily calm. When passing by Takino Haneto, he smiled at him naturally, as if he was just planning to go abroad for a vacation.

It wasn't until the vehicle drifted away that only Takino Haneto and Aono Kihara remained under the dark and gloomy concrete wall, the air became quiet again.

Both men fell into silence for a while, as if they were considering their respective sentences.

"Are you really going to do that?"

After a long time, Aono Kihara spoke,

"You want to replace Marc to enter the organization. This is indeed a good channel...but you should be quite aware of the dangers that come with it, right?"

"My understanding of Marc is extraordinary. And this time I also cracked the communication code between him and the organization. It is not difficult to replace him." Takino Hanren shrugged,

"If you are not willing to agree to me, then I will also enter the organization through other means. You know that I have always stayed in Japan to investigate my father. If it was just to escape the pursuit, then I would have gone to the Flower Planter Stay on the side."

"……Of course I know."

Aono Kihara sighed for a long time, he looked away, his expression was rather complicated.

After all, he was also in charge of investigating the original case.

"Marc is a very special existence in the organization, and his relationship with gin is extraordinary. He has always been outside the organization, and his personality will change with the change of appearance. What he is good at is also what I am good at of."

Takino Haneto looked up at the gloomy sky, and seemed to be able to smell a touch of water vapor from the tip of his nose.

"By the way, I still have a lot of information about him. I hope to make a certain exchange with the police. I need all the information about Marc. These are all for the disguise. In the meantime, I will continue to Go to school until graduation. I can guarantee that I will never be exposed, but I also need your help, Inspector Aono."

"When did you learn the disguise technique?" Aono Kihara was a little surprised.

"I was lucky enough to meet a Mr. Magician when I was a child." Takino Haneto raised the corners of his mouth, as if he didn't intend to elaborate on this matter.

"You really look exactly like your unreliable father." Aono Kihara sighed,

"I understand, I will report this matter with some of the above staff. Once something happens, you must also inform me as soon as possible."

"Thank you, and... some time ago, I troubled you to take care of that idiot Kikuchi Heijiro." Takino Hanren shook his head.

"You should take good care of yourself, you are always so excited, be careful not to put yourself in it." Qingye Kihara said seriously,

"And...you don't have to worry about what happened nine years ago. People can't be resurrected after death, so sometimes you have to think about it."

"Ha... For that kind of thing, just treat me as if I have a fever called curiosity." Takino Hanren smiled,

"Live to see people, die to see corpses. My father just disappeared. I never believed that man would die so easily in that rainy night."

"You think, what father would happily die after giving his son a birthday present? He didn't even have time to say happy birthday to me."

Eight years and eleven months ago, it was his birthday and the day he received that Mazda mx-5.

That was the most important gift he had ever received in his life, and it could be regarded as a life-like existence.

"You have to know that once you make a choice, you can't go back." Aono Kihara shook his head, still thinking of redeeming the other party.

"Well, I know." Takino Hanren casually looked away, but his tone became more firm,

"The road I choose has always been a one-way street."

Once you decide on a direction, you will never turn back easily.

There was another silence between the two, Takino Haneto took out his cigarette case, tilted out a cigarette from it and gave it to the other party, the latter was silent for a moment, but still took the cigarette in the other party's hand.

"How is Xiuyi recently?"

"He seems to have come to Japan to look for you, probably because of Taya's affairs."

"He contacted you?"

"Ah."

"Tell you not to tell me?"

"Um……"

"Hehe, it really is his character."

"You don't have the right to talk about him, do you? Wouldn't it be the same for you?"

"I saw Shuichi today." Takino Yuren lit a cigarette with a lighter, exhaled a wisp of white mist,

"It's really strange that he would appear in such a place. It can be regarded as a tacit understanding between brothers."

"Are you going to meet him?"

"Well... he should come to see me soon."

Saying so, there was a sound of tires rubbing against the ground in the air, and only a moment later, the body of the extremely eye-catching Chevrolet c/k1500 also appeared in front of Takino Hanjin and Aono Kihara.

Amidst the pattering rain, the dark blue window glass slowly descended, and a black-haired man wearing a knitted hat soon appeared in Takino Hanren's field of vision.

"Get in the car." The other party glanced at him and said concisely.

"coming."

Takino Haneto greeted Aono Kihara who was behind him, and quickly pulled the passenger seat out of the car and got into the car.

The sound of tires rubbing against the ground sounded again, and the next second, the black Chevrolet disappeared into the rain.

The two people in the car didn't speak, and there was a deadlock in an awkward atmosphere, making it difficult for people to say what to say.

In the end, it was Takino Haneto who broke the silence first.

"What's up?"

"Ah."

Akai Hideichi held the steering wheel with a relaxed expression on his face,

"I'm afraid you're dead, so come and have a look."

"puff."

Really the same answer as always.

I haven't seen it for many years, but the scene where the brothers meet, which should have been touching enough, has inexplicably become somewhat comical.

"You're still wearing the knitted hat I bought for you." Takino Hanen's eyes caught on to the other person's hair, "You still have long hair?"

"Not fully raised." Akai Shuichi said lightly,

"Aren't you also wearing the red photochromic mirror I gave you?"

"After all, it was my birthday present from my cute and clingy brother, how could I be willing to throw it away." Takino Hanren laughed.

"Yes, it's the same. After all, my gentle and kind brother gave me a knit hat. How could I be willing to take it off?" Akai Shuichi also responded with a smile.

After saying these two sentences, the two of them fell into a brief and weird silence again, probably because they were disgusted by the other party's remarks.

"You really haven't changed... Forget it, it's good to see that you are safe and sound." Takino Hanren put his hands behind his head, his tone was still flat,

"I heard from my mother that you got a green card from the United States and became an FBI? You're doing well."

"You are not bad for each other." Akai Shuichi raised the corners of his lips, looking a little happy,

"Have you found out about your father?"

"I won't tell you when the investigation is over."

"Oh, very good." Akai Hideichi was not angry, "I will investigate with my own strength, even if you stop me, it will be useless."

"Come on, do you think I want to stop you?" Takino Hanren shrugged, "I just habitually go one step ahead of everyone."

This point is not wrong.Akai Hideichi thought.

Takino Haneto has always been quite lively and active, and his mobility and social skills are always one step ahead of him, so he has always been beaten more than him since he was a child.Probably because of this reference, he and Hideyoshi were beaten a lot less.

At that time, Takino Yuren was not called Takino Yuren, and Akai Shuichi was not the current Akai Shuichi.

Everything changed the moment his father went to investigate the case of Koji Haneda.

"Just stop here." Takino Haneto suddenly knocked on the window, motioning for the other party to stop.

"Okay." Akai Hideichi stopped the car quickly without asking any further questions.

"Are you going back soon after this time? How long do you plan to stay in Japan?" Takino Haneto unbuckled his seat belt, and rarely took a look at the people around him.

"I'm going back by plane tonight." Akai Shuichi said, "I don't plan to come back during Chinese New Year. I'm afraid it will be a long time before we meet next time."

"That's it."

He didn't ask the other party what he was going to do when he went back. After all, the result of asking and not asking was probably the same.

No one in this world knows what his twin brother thinks better than him.

"Then, I wish you a prosperous martial arts."

"...You too, don't die easily."

So that's it.

There are no touching words, and the result of being too familiar with each other is that sometimes we don't even know what to talk about when we get along.

It might be much better if it was Hideyoshi, after all, the child seemed to be the type who was good at chatting.

Takino Haneto touched the keys in his pocket, looking at the shadow of the car fading away, his originally happy mood gradually calmed down.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, he pulled up his hood, turned off his original mobile phone, and took out another mobile phone.

That is Marc's mobile phone, and it is also the address book connected to the headquarters.

After Marc was arrested, he integrated the relevant information, and Enoda was responsible for checking and analyzing it. He also got the place where Marc originally lived.

This is a basement with a rather gloomy atmosphere, and the atmosphere is so depressing that it makes people faint.No one seems to know about this place, and no one has ever been in or out of it except Marc.

Insert the key into the lock, turn it, and the heavy anti-theft door slowly opened, and a rather tidy room appeared in front of him.

It was indeed unexpectedly tidy, and the desktops in the room were all cleaned up—except for the chair placed in the center of the room, and a long string of photos hanging in mid-air with twine.

……photo?

Marc doesn't seem like the kind of nostalgic person either.

Takino Haneto closed the door behind him and locked it behind him.He glanced around, quickly walked to the edge of the wall, and saw the first photo in the first row.

It was a picture of a woman.

The woman looks very similar to Marc, with a dejected face that is exhausted by life.But with sharp eyes, a firm complexion, and drooping corners of her mouth, she should be the kind of woman who is quite stubborn and has a strong desire to control.

He turned over the back of the photo, and behind the photo was a sentence.

【This woman is my mother. 】

Takino Haneto frowned, but there was a bit of interest in his heart.So I followed the order in which the photos were hung and read them all.

【My mother loves me very much, she treats me as severely as he loves me...】

[I found something was wrong with me. 】

[I think there may be some problems with my sexual orientation.My way of thinking is also different from normal children. 】

[I wanted to hide this, but she soon discovered it. 】

[She wants me to be a [normal] child. 】

[She sent me to a hospital for mental illness.She told me that if you get sick, you need to be cured, and if you get cured, you will be back to normal. 】

[After a year, I became a [normal] kid and I went home. 】

[My mother is very happy, she hopes that I can start a family as soon as possible like a normal adult male. 】

【As she wished, I found a beautiful and gentle girlfriend. 】

【My mother likes her very much, but she is still obsessed with controlling my life. She has planned everything for me in the future. 】

[Then she had a car accident and went to the hospital. 】

[In order to save money for my mother's medical treatment, I had no choice but to join the Black Organization, which is the fastest place to get money.At this time, I also quickly discovered what made me [different] from childhood to adulthood. 】

[I seem to... like to control the life and death of others, even if I kill people, I always pursue the most beautiful sense of art. 】

[I enjoy the feeling that everything is in my hands. I am also quite good at transforming into countless different personalities. I always find that I can best win the favor of others. This may be my talent. 】

[I have to say, this job is really suitable for me. 】

【My girlfriend found Miao Duan. She wanted to escape, but after being brutally killed by me, she hid her body in the suitcase. 】

[I disposed of the corpse in my most proficient way. 】

[No one found out where she went, and I also disappeared from this world. 】

[The doctor said that my mother is in a very bad condition, and she has to receive very painful treatment every day.She is always struggling to hold my hand and tell me that she doesn't want to continue suffering]

[She wants to die. 】

[But I don't want her to die. 】

【I smiled and held her hand, telling the doctor that I must try my best to keep my mother alive.No matter what method is used, she must be kept alive. 】

【I told her that if you get sick, you need to be cured, and if you are cured, you will be normal. 】

【I'm really happy, very happy. 】

……

Except for the narration of the mother in the first half, most of the photos in the second half are about the process of marc committing a crime.A lot of useful information can indeed be obtained from these photos.

Part of Marc's distorted personality comes from his mother's pathological desire to control.And he didn't record it as a painful memory, but it was more like recording something relaxed and happy.

His life was distorted the moment he was sent to a mental hospital.

This is an irreparable tragedy.

Through Enoda, Takino Haneto also learned about Marc's mother.For nearly five years, his mother suffered physical and psychological torture.She still couldn't die, she had to accept the mistakes she had made and live in pain.

But none of that matters anymore.

It is enough for him to get the news.

"I'm Marc."

Takino Haneto sat on a chair in the center of the room. He looked at the photos hanging in the air, his fingers interlaced, his green eyes behind the red lenses became deeper, and the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

"I am...an intelligence officer of the Black Organization, a weird and sick man with a hundred faces, and a bomber lurking in the world—Marc."

From now on, this will be his other identity.
