[Psychic Detective Yakumo] One hundred ways to tease cats

Roaring at the dashboard.

"I know, but"

The front was completely blocked, and the opposite lane on the two-lane bridge was also lined up with a long line of vehicles, and they were trapped in it and could not move.

"Bastard! Turn around! Shut the car back!"

"no."

Ishii's judgment was too late, and they were already packed in a row.Their car couldn't move at all, but the water gate was right in front of them.

"hateful?"

Goto kicked the dashboard again.Like a signal, Yakumo opened the rear door of the car, jumped out of the car and ran away.

"It's still faster!"

After finishing speaking, Goto ran on the bridge behind Yakumo.

The river was pitch black at night.

This should be the monitoring tower of the water gate, and the river is about ten meters below.

When Yakumo and the others came, they saw a figure falling straight from the top of the tower into the river.

If they couldn't catch up, they could only watch helplessly as the shaking chains gradually stopped.

And they haven't reached the bottom of the tower yet.

"Haruka!" Yakumo fell to his knees in a moment of weakness.

It was too late, she had—

Wordless silence lay between the two.

A figure stood on the tower, seemingly unaware of their arrival.

Now is not the time to be sad, this opportunity must be seized.

"Officer Goto," Yakumo said quietly, with an unprecedented silence in his voice, "please go to the tower and arrest Mr. Kinoshita."

"You come too," Goto said.

"don't want."

"If you want to come, come here obediently!" Goto clicked his tongue, lifted Yakumo by the back of the neck and climbed up the tower.

Just as he was about to punch the man, the man turned around.

"Yakumo," she said, turning around.

Goto's fist stopped in mid-air, at this moment, it seemed that time had stood still——

Yakumo, who was covered in deathly silence, was startled, he raised his head in disbelief, "Haruka?"

Yes, it's me.

38

Things go back to before they came.

"The effect of the medicine hasn't faded, you can't move yet."

Dr. Kinoshita said while looking down at the mannequin lying on the ground.His tone sounded rather flat.

The "Why do you do this?" model hides my pre-recorded tape recorder and voice recorder.

"Why do you do this? Of course it's for my daughter!"

"Ayaka doesn't want to—"

"Shut up! Ayaka didn't want to die either!"

Kinoshita has become a completely different person.I suddenly remembered what my mother said, if the child can be brought back to life, parents can kill without hesitation.

Kinoshita put iron shackles on the feet of the mannequin. There was a chain on the iron ring of the shackles. One end of the chain was connected to a cement block, and the other end was fixed to the waist-high iron railing.

Kinoshita seemed to be ready. He hugged the model's arms and forced her to stand up, but the process was not smooth.She fell onto the iron floor, and Kinoshita lost her balance against the counterforce and slammed into the door.

Clang!

There was a loud bang.

"hateful!"

Kinoshita uttered obscenities, and again he wanted the model to stand up, but this time instead of pulling her up, he pushed her up.

Finally getting the model to stand up, Kinoshita lifted her body up again and let her sit on the iron railing.

Now Kinoshita is supporting the body of the model. If Kinoshita lets go, the model will fall into the river upside down. That block of cement is probably a heavy object that will sink her to the bottom of the river.

Kinoshita let go of the hands supporting the model's body. The wind was strong, and her body seemed to be crumbling under the strong wind.Then he fell head-first into the river ten meters below.

In the middle of the fall, I saw Yakumo's figure galloping towards me.

"It's coming." I sighed silently, and pressed the recording pen to stop the recording.

I don't know how he would react when he thought I was dead?As I thought about it, I, who had been hidden all along, suddenly stepped forward and stabbed the anesthetic in my hand into Kinoshita's neck.

"Ala, ala," I said, "I'm not used to being stunned, the smell is too familiar, if you want to knock me down, it's better to switch to a drug with a different function."

Then, out of some evil psychology, I didn't make a sound when I saw them, but stood on the tower as if I didn't see them.

Now I'm looking at them, and the atmosphere is awkward.

Yakumo broke free from Officer Goto's restraint, walked towards me without saying a word, and then hugged me unexpectedly.

That hug carried the smell of sweat from the boy who had just finished exercising, and the heat that hadn’t faded away, which almost burned my soul. I was held in his arms, thought for a while, wrapped my arms around his neck, and listened to his disordered words Heartbeat gradually returned to normal.

"Idiot! Didn't you promise me not to mess around!"

"It's true that I didn't mess around, I didn't get hurt at all this time." I raised my head slightly, trying to explain to him, "This time I completely removed myself, that is just a model."

"Then, why didn't you answer my phone." Yakumo stared at me in horror.

"Because then the hypnosis won't work," I explained, "and—"

"You must be a witch sent by heaven to torment me." He said through gritted teeth.

"Thanks for the compliment." I smiled slightly. Suddenly, I heard something, and I pushed him away suddenly. At the same time, I turned around to avoid the brick that was coming.

"Go to hell, you bastard who fooled me!" Kinoshita, who didn't know when he woke up, roared, and his chaotic swing forced me to the edge, and at this moment——

A strong wind blew up, and I was caught off guard and fell from the tower.

Falling with me, Yakumo jumped from the tower without hesitation.

Goto leaned over the iron railing and shouted loudly.

"Hey! Are you okay?"

Soaking in the icy river water suddenly amplified my senses, my heart seemed to be crushed, my skin felt tingling, and I couldn't breathe.

I swayed my body to try to surface, but my body couldn't move according to my own consciousness.

The cold feeling made me gradually sink to the bottom of the water.

The water was pitch black.

want to live.

My hands frantically swiped upwards.But even my fingers were almost sinking.

Ah, I'm dying, will I die this time?

In an instant, my whole body lost its strength, and I could only sink to the bottom of the water like this.

The next second, someone grabbed my hand.Then pull me up hard.

My body slowly floated up.

Yakumo?

After a while, my face was finally exposed, and the air suddenly flowed into my lungs and made me choke.

"you are still alive!"

This voice is Yakumo!

Yakumo grabbed the iron ladder on the water gate with his right hand, and hugged me with his left.

"Hey! Are you okay?"

This familiar loud voice.Looking down from the management tower is Mr. Goto.

"Goto-san! Please put the chain on and pull it up!"

Yakumo called.He turned the chain on the doll into his own hand, and grasped it tightly.

"I see! Wait a minute!"

Goto picked up the hook hanging on the iron railing.

"Can you? Hold me tight!"

I followed Yakumo's body with all the remaining strength in my body as promised, but I couldn't exert my strength.

"Are you ready? I'm going to pull!"

Goto began to pull up the chain, and Yakumo cooperated with him to climb up the iron tie step by step.

The chain caught in Yakumo's wrist.

"Yakumo, if..." I grabbed Yakumo and smiled wryly.

"It's so noisy, be quiet and grab it!" Yakumo glared at me, unable to hide the sadness in his eyes, "You're going to continue to torment me, so don't die."

"Hehe," I laughed, "Are you shaking M, Yakumo?"

"Whispering! Shut up!" Yakumo yelled at me, a light flashed in his eyes, tears?

"Are you all right?"

Goto leaned forward and shouted, but behind him

"Watch out behind!"

My voice didn't reach Goto's ears, Kinoshita stood behind Goto holding an iron pipe, and then swung it down vigorously.

"what!"

Goto lay on the ground and disappeared from our sight.The chain came loose from Goto's grasp, and Yakumo and I fell down together.

We sank into the water again.

Near the surface of the water, Yakumo grabbed the ladder with his hands wrapped around the chain, and with difficulty stopped his sinking.

My strength has reached its limit.

My hopes were dashed, and Yakumo's hand could no longer hold the ladder.

Ishii managed to come to the parking lot of Minato Management Bureau, but he didn't see Goto and Yakumo.Where did they go?

Before reaching here, he heard the sound of two objects falling into the water.Could it not be!

Ishii looked around.

Suddenly, a man with a bloody head appeared in front of him.

"Wow"

Ishii wailed in horror, the man held his head and sat on the ground unsteadily.Ah, is he hurt?

"Are you OK?"

Ishii knelt down and looked at the man's face.

"Leave me alone, go save that girl over there!"

The man endured the pain and pointed to the management tower connected by the iron bridge.It turned out that Haruka was there!

"I'll come back later."

After Ishii finished speaking, he ran towards the management tower.

"Ugh"

Just as he was starting to cross the bridge, he heard screams.Ishii saw two figures, one was leaning against the iron railing and motionless, the other leaned out and shouted, "Are you all right?" It was the voice of Police Officer Goto, so, is the person who fell down Dr. Kinoshita?

Goto untied the chain on the iron railing, and pulled it up forcefully.Kinoshita behind him slowly got up again, picked up a handful of iron pipes that had fallen by his feet and held them up over his head.

"Goto Hikari! Be careful behind you!"

Before it was too late, Kinoshita had already knocked the iron pipe down on Goto's head.Goto fell back, lying on the ground, his hands loosened the chains.

"Oh"
