[Black Basket] Winter Cherry Blossoms

Time is always passing by quietly. When people try to keep the footsteps of time, the nightmare of fate also comes.

It was the first time for Akashi to feel that the morning sun would be so uncomfortable. In winter, the warm sun should make people feel comfortable and full, but today, his heart can only feel aching, without a trace of warmth.

According to the agreed time with the bandit leader, the hostage exchange will take place at the warehouse at the port terminal at 10:30 this morning. If there is any police interference during the process, the bandit leader will order to tear up the ticket.Therefore, even with the police as backup, Saya can only go alone, so as to keep the safety of the hostages.

However, most people who pay attention to this matter are worried about the safety of the hostages. Few people have considered Saya's situation. It is no wonder that the police have promised to the Hashimoto family that they will try their best to rescue the hostages and protect Saya's safety. After exchanging hostages, he escaped unscathed.

Faced with these powerful statements, naturally no one would worry about Saya's safety, and even less would anyone call Akashi's house to soothe her anxiety with words.Only the old couple, the old couple who raised Saya, talked with her on the phone for half an hour. For the rest of the time, the phone at Akashi's house was silent, and there was no more movement.

Is this the only consolation before facing despair?

After Sha Ye answered the phone, he didn't express the distress in his heart, but came to the dining table with a peaceful expression as usual, and ate breakfast quietly.But at the dining table, a heavy dead silence enveloped the crowd, no one spoke, only the sound of knives and forks touching the plate was heard continuously, that heavy feeling couldn't help but make the deacons who were waiting around feel very uncomfortable.

"Saya, when you go to the port today, remember to act cautiously and don't panic. I will let Zhengxiong help you."

Shunji Akashi broke the silence, and did not forget to tell Saya before leaving that she should not be overly nervous, even if the police were unreliable, Masao Nakamura would go over to meet her.

"Yes, I understand."

Although she has the backing of the police and Akashi's family, Saya is very clear that the danger of her going this time has not been reduced. For some reason, she always feels that this kidnapping incident is not simple. Signing the book, in fact, there are other purposes hidden behind the incident, which are unknown to people.

What does the man behind the scenes want?Was it really just a simple seizure of the inheritance left by her mother?

The chopsticks in his hand picked up the grilled fish on the plate and slowly put it into his mouth. Saya wondered whether that possibility existed in his heart.If so, who is the ultimate goal?When all kinds of bold hypotheses appeared in her mind, making her eat this breakfast very uneasy, suddenly, a slight pain came from her cheek, pulling her back from her thoughts, she looked to her side, it turned out that it was Akashi He pinched her cheek with his hand.

"Don't think about it by yourself, I will go with you, and I will never let you take risks alone."

Since the morning, it can be said that Akashi has been gloomy, and his body has been exuding a terrible sense of coercion, which makes people shudder. Seeing this, all the deacons in the mansion immediately cheered up and did not dare to work. I was lazy, for fear that if I made a mistake, I would step on the young master's mine.

"Master, you can consider going to the warehouse to choose a few weapons to bring with you, maybe they will come in handy at that time." Masao Nakamura, who was standing behind Akashi, persuaded softly. He did this for the sake of his young master, Oikawa It goes without saying who is the backstage of the family. In order to prevent sudden dangerous incidents, it is much better to have self-defense items in hand than to resist with bare hands.

arms?Akashi frowned suspiciously, and it took a while before he remembered what kind of weapon Masao Nakamura was talking about. He sighed and replied in a deep voice: "Uncle Masao, those antique knives are still piled up in the warehouse." Dust, they're useless."

"Really? Seijuro, I thought your kendo had regressed." Akashi Shunji knew that Masao Nakamura was joking. There were indeed a few antique family knives in the warehouse, but they were too old to be used at all. Self-defense, or to use other things.

"Dad, that's one of my compulsory courses. How can I regress due to lack of practice?"

The elite courses of the Akashi family are so dense that it is almost unbearable for ordinary people, not to mention that every course must be excellent, and there are very few people who can do it.As the next head of the family, Akashi believes that he is still learning, and it is still too early to truly be on his own.

"It's a good thing for you to be self-aware, but do you really want to intervene in today's matter?"

Akashi Shunji is still worried about his son's safety. This time is not an outing for high school students, but something that may lose his life. If possible, he really hopes that his son will think twice and not participate in this hostage exchange operation .

"Yes, Dad." Akashi replied firmly, "I will definitely take care of this matter to the end, and I will do what you can't do. If my mother is still alive, I believe she will support me Decide."

Speaking of what his dead wife said before his death, Akashi Shunji recalled the scene when his son was just born. At that time, Reiko was holding the little baby with her eyes closed, and proudly told him that she would let her prophesy——

Shunji, Seijuro will be smarter and better than you when he grows up, and he will definitely be able to accomplish things that you cannot.

At that time, he could take Reiko's words as a joke, but many years later, her prediction is slowly coming true. His son's growth rate is amazing, and he has gradually become the head of the family.Although he is still some distance away from becoming the official head of the family, he can already see the future of the Akashi family. Perhaps in the near future, what he cannot accomplish will be ended by his son.

"Seijuro, you still don't want to go, it's too dangerous there."

Saya also joined the ranks of persuasion. For this inheritance, many innocent people have been involved. She can no longer involve Akashi in danger. If he is injured and in danger, she will definitely hate herself for the rest of her life.

"Saya, you don't need to say it, I've made up my mind, I have to go this time." Akashi didn't change his decision because of Saya's persuasion, he stretched out his hand and took her hand into his palm to dispel the coldness in her hands, "Don't worry, if it wasn't for careful consideration and sure success, I wouldn't insist on doing it. You have to believe me."

"Zhengxiong, remember to watch him when the time comes. If he acts impulsively, knock him out and bring him back."

Akashi Shunji can tolerate his son's occasional willfulness, but only today's matter can't be compromised, want to go?Yes, as long as everything is done according to his arrangement, he will let it go, and even send more people to covertly protect it.

"Yes, please rest assured, President, I will definitely protect the young master." Masao Nakamura nodded in reply.

The dead silence of breakfast gradually dissipated in the chatter. After a long time, when the deacons were busy clearing up the tableware, the guard patrolling the gate of the mansion came in to report to the owner that the police had arrived at the gate.

"Let the police officers wait in the living room first, and when Miss Saya is ready, go to the port with them."

After Masao Nakamura explained to the guards, he looked up at the restaurant's wall clock. The time was exactly eight o'clock, and there was still an hour before departure. There should be enough time for other preparations.

"Miss Shaye, before leaving, I have something to give you, please come with me to the garden."

Breakfast was over, Masao Nakamura planned to take Saya to make the final preparations according to the arrangement of his boss, but when she was about to leave, Akashi pulled her back, making her unable to move a step.

"Uncle Masao, I'll go with her." The closer the scheduled time came, the more uneasy Akashi became. In order to avoid further complications, he wanted to stay by Saya's side until that moment came.

"This…………"

"It's okay, Masao, bring Seijuro with him, he will be more prepared and safer."

Seeing Masao Nakamura's distressed expression, Shunji Akashi directly opened his mouth to help him out.Originally, this was an emergency training arranged for Saya, using more than half an hour to learn the skills of self-defense.Now that his son is also interested in participating, he might as well practice together.After all, as soon as today's incident ended, no one knew whether Saya would come back safely. It was also a good thing that the two of them could get along for an extra minute.

With the permission of his boss, Nakamura Masao took the two to practice in the garden, while Akashi Shunji left the restaurant and went to the living room to meet with the police officer handling the case, hoping to find out the clues behind the kidnapping case through conversations with the police. If the development of the situation is really the same as he guessed, then it is necessary for him to take other countermeasures.

The news of the kidnapping of the children of wealthy families is one of the targets that the media will not let go.Unfortunately, this time, due to the pressure from several major financial groups and the Metropolitan Police Department, the police first blocked the news internally, and did not disclose the case to the outside world, so that the kidnapping case could continue to be investigated.

In order not to alarm the kidnappers, in a block near the port, plainclothes detectives from the serious crime team of the police have ambushed near the handover point, guarding every street intersection and closely monitoring the kidnappers' movements.As for the important bait, it has been escorted to the destination by a special person. She will take the miniature camera placed on her by the police to collect relevant criminal evidence for the police.

However, this operation is extremely dangerous. The police usually ask the families of the victims to wait for news at home, but the family members of the two victims still came to the scene to wait despite dissuasion.Team Leader Ikeda of the serious crime team couldn't hold them back, so he had to let the family members wait in a safe area. However, when they met the bait to cooperate with the case in the safe area, a dispute was inevitable, which made the surrounding police officers feel uneasy. I have a headache.

"Saya Hashimoto, if my son can't come back, I won't let you go!"

When the anxiety reached its peak, Hirochi Haruhi’s anger was uncontrollable, especially when he saw Saya, he couldn’t help but lose his mind and yell at her. It seemed that only doing that could relieve the strong anger in his heart. disturbed.
