The police academy team is also giving me a haircut today

"So, I just want to ask if it's convenient for you to come and take over?"

Hoshino Takuya said in a tangled tone: "If it's not convenient for you, I.....ask Officer Matsuda again, and see if he's recovered—"

"You don't need to contact Xiaozhenping, just leave it to me." Hagiwara Kenji agreed, and then said: "Just send me a text message with the specific address. Prepare the bomb disposal tools, and I will rush there now."

Hoshino Takuya breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the words, and he immediately said: "Okay, please excuse me, Officer Hagiwara, I will wait for you at the hotel entrance with my equipment."

"Well, thank you for your hard work." After Hagiwara Kenji simply responded, he hung up the phone.

Within a few seconds, Hagiwara Kenji received a text message from Hoshino Takuya.

[Mihua Town 5-chome 19, Mihua Hotel.Officer Hagiwara, thank you very much! 】

Hagiwara Kenji took a look at the address and remembered it in his heart, he quickly put on a smiling face and sent it.

Then Hagiwara Kenji put away his mobile phone, went straight to the cash register and said hello to the lady clerk who came over: "Excuse me, can you help me settle the bill?"

"Of course." The lady clerk took the handbag from Hagiwara Ken's second-hand bag to scan the code, and asked, "Mr. Hagiwara, don't you want lemon pie today?"

"Ah, that—" Hagiwara Kenji raised the corners of his lips slightly, and said with a smile: "I have a temporary job today, so I won't buy it for now. When I come again, Miss Sister, remember to remind me."

"Hahaha, okay." While giving Kenji Hagiwara change, the clerk took out a small paper bag from under the cash register and stuffed it into Kenji Hagiwara's shopping bag.

The shop assistant with a lively personality winked at Kenji Hagiwara playfully: "I'll give you a bag of handmade cookies. This is a small gift from our store to give back to regular customers."

"Come on, Hagiwara-san!"

"Wow, I'll work hard!" After putting away the change, Hagiwara Kenji took the paper bag again, and said with a surprised face: "Then thank you, Miss, I'll go first, see you next time."

"Looking forward to your next visit——"

...

...

After leaving the dessert shop, Kenji Hagiwara quickly drove to the Rice Flower Hotel located at 5-chome 19, Rice Flower Town.

As soon as he got close to the street where Mihua Hotel was located, Kenji Hagiwara noticed something was wrong.

The Mihua Hotel is located in one of the more prosperous commercial circles of Mihua Town, and it is full of people coming and going on weekdays.

However, at this time, from a distance, Kenji Hagiwara saw a cordon around the street.

There was a clear difference in the flow of people inside and outside the cordon. Outside the cordon, many passers-by stopped to watch. Inside the cordon, there were only a few police cars and police officers with their sirens sounding, as well as some hotel staff who were evacuating.

Kenji Hagiwara found a place near the cordon and stopped the car nearby.Hagiwara Kenji grabbed the cell phone thrown on the co-pilot, and unscrewed the car key.

"Buzzing..."

At this moment, Hagiwara Kenji's cell phone vibrated, he glanced at the caller ID, and connected the call: "Hello? Officer Hoshino?"

"...you've arrived already?"

"...Well, I've arrived nearby, I'll go there right away." Kenji Hagiwara got out of the car, slammed the door behind him, and while listening to the phone, he strode quickly towards the entrance of Mihua Hotel.

On the co-pilot, the dessert paper bag left in the car by Kenji Hagiwara was lying there quietly.

"...Okay, just wait for me at the main entrance of the Mihua Hotel——I saw you." Kenji Hagiwara immediately saw the brown-haired man in police uniform, looking around with a toolbox in his hand police.

Kenji Hagiwara hung up the phone, walked quickly to Takuya Hoshino, and said hello, "Officer Hoshino? Hello, I'm Kenji Hagiwara."

Hoshino Takuya only confirmed his identity after Kenji Hagiwara made his voice. He bowed and greeted Kenji Hagiwara again and again: "Senior Hagiwara, thank you very much for coming. Time is a little tight, let's talk as we walk."

"Okay." Hagiwara Kenji agreed, "What's the specific situation?"

.....

.....

Hoshino Takuya walked quickly in front of Kenji Hagiwara, and he briefly described the details of the case while leading the way for Kenji Hagiwara.

"...That's how it happened. After the anonymous call to the police, the colleagues from the search department sent someone to the restaurant on the top floor of the Mihua Hotel to confirm the situation..."

"...After careful searching, they finally found a ticking time bomb under a dining table."

"The bomb was placed under the dining table?" Hagiwara Kenji asked suspiciously: "Didn't the restaurant staff notice anything wrong with such an obvious place?"

"I had the same doubts at first," Hoshino Takuya sighed, "But after I arrived at the scene, I realized that the tables in the Mihua Hotel were covered with white tablecloths hanging down to the floor, so the hotel staff couldn't The presence of the bomb was discovered immediately."

"So it is."

At this moment, the elevator reached the first floor of the hotel.

"Ding dong."

After a crisp reminder sounded, the two doors of the elevator slowly opened to both sides, revealing the empty car inside.

Hoshino Takuya and Hagiwara Kenji entered the elevator together, and Hoshino Takuya pressed the elevator button to the 13th floor.

"Is there only one bomb?" Hagiwara Kenji asked.

"It looks like this at the moment," Hoshino Takuya replied cautiously: "Before you came, senior, colleagues from the first search section had assisted us in two rounds of investigation, and no new bombs were found nearby."

"What about the person who called the police?" Hagiwara Kenji asked again: "Have you found the person who called the police? He should know a lot of useful things."

Hoshino Takuya shook his head helplessly: "I've been looking for it, but there is no news yet."

"The caller used a public phone near the Mihua Hotel when calling the police, and he deliberately lowered his voice when calling the police, so he couldn't tell the specific gender at all."

"Yes." Hagiwara Kenji nodded, expressing his understanding.

Finally, he asked the most critical question: "How long is the countdown?"

Hoshino Takuya's complexion became much heavier at once. He glanced at his watch and replied, "23 minutes, to be exact, there are still 23 minutes and 54 seconds left."

"Ding dong, we're on the 13th floor." At the same time, the notification sounded in the elevator, and after a few seconds, the doors of the elevator slowly opened to both sides.

"I understand." Hagiwara Kenji said calmly, "Leave the rest to me, thank you for your hard work."

He stepped out of the elevator and reached out to Hoshino Takuya: "Give me the toolbox."

Hoshino Takuya hurriedly followed Hagiwara Kenji out of the elevator. He handed Hagiwara Kenji the toolbox containing the bomb disposal tools in his hand, and followed closely behind Hagiwara Kenji, saying: "Senior, the explosion-proof suit is in the front corridor. I'll take you there to change."

"No need." Kenji Hagiwara followed the map on the signage he saw downstairs just now. Although he only glanced at it roughly, Kenji Hagiwara had already memorized the route to the restaurant.

"You can put it on, but I won't."

"What, what?" Hoshino Takuya didn't react for a moment, he stammered and asked: "Hagi, Hagiwara-senpai, are you going to wear protective clothing, and plan to defuse the bomb directly?"

"Things like explosion-proof clothing usually have no room for use," Kenji Hagiwara said confidently at first, and then he continued as if joking: "Of course, if you need it when It came in handy, and I don't think it's going to help much."

"and......"

While they were talking, Hagiwara Kenji had brought Hoshino Takuya into the open-air restaurant located on the east side of the 13th floor of Mihua Hotel.

Having entered the main entrance of the restaurant, Kenji Hagiwara saw the long log table with the tablecloth removed.

Under the dining table, a bomb with a faint red light was lying there quietly.

"And it's really hard to defuse bombs in bomb-proof suits."

Hagiwara Kenji walked quickly to the bomb with the toolbox in his hand. He knelt down on the ground, looked at the slightly rough shell of the bomb carefully, and said with a sigh: "Of course—the most important reason is... We're running out of time, Hoshino."

"But you can't learn from me."

"Leave it to me here. I remember that Hoshino is still receiving training, right?"

"It's like this..." Hoshino Takuya said with a face of shame, "I came to the Metropolitan Police Department to report the day before yesterday."

Hagiwara Kenji restrained the smile on his face, and waved away Hoshino Takuya who did not take any protective measures, "Okay, then you can stand outside the hall with the police officers from the first search section and wait for me, I will soon It will be resolved."

Although he was talking to Hoshino Takuya, Hagiwara Kenji's attention was always focused on the bomb in front of him. After carefully looking at the whole bomb, he opened the tool box.

Hagiwara Kenji took out the tools he wanted to use one by one, and put them on the carpet beside him.

Hoshino Takuya hesitated again and again, but he knew that even if he stayed here, he would not be of much help.

Hoshino Takuya saw that Hagiwara Kenji was about to start demolition, in order not to distract Hagiwara Kenji, so he gritted his teeth and decided to follow Hagiwara-senpai's instructions and leave the scene.

But before leaving, Takuya Hoshino couldn't help telling Kenji Hagiwara again and again: "Please—be careful!"
