"By the way, Yinglili, are you of mixed Japanese and British descent?"
Kasumigaoka Shiu, who wanted to get acquainted with Eiri, started chatting with Eiri.
"certainly!"
Sawamura Eiri replied with a smile.
"Britain, when I think of Britain, I think of Sherlock Holmes and football!"
Mao Lilan thought of a certain reasoning madman. If he were here, he would definitely think so.
"Xiaolan, you were infected by Kudo. When talking about Britain, the first thing that comes to mind is Earl Gray tea!"
Suzuki Sonoko retorted.
"If it were me...well, the first thing that comes to mind would be Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and Oxford University!" Kasumigaoka Shiu thought for a while, then asked Nakiri Erina, "Erina, what about you?"
Why are you suddenly playing the association game about Britain? No one notified me!
Nakiri Erina was stunned for a moment, but in order to cater to the others, she could only think about it and said: "I can only say that British cuisine is terrible!"
As a cook, this was the first thing she thought of after hearing about Britain.
"Yes, it is!"
Eri Sawamura, who is half-British, stuck out her tongue and said that she really couldn't refute Nakiri Erina's evaluation at all, and even had a deep sense of agreement.
She has lived in Japan all year round and grew up eating Japanese food. However, she occasionally went back to Britain with her parents a few times and tasted orthodox British cuisine several times. Then she began to resist returning to her father's hometown.
I don’t know how the British people can tolerate that stuff!
"But the black tea is still very good." Erina Nakiri finally didn't have zero emotional intelligence and praised Britain's black tea in a remedial manner. After all, Britain's black tea is indeed world-famous.
"Queen of Britain, that's what I thought of first."
Nito Hisako thought for a while and said, even Nakiri Erina also joined the discussion, so naturally she couldn't be left behind.
"Indeed, it seems that the Queen of Britain is still the head of state of sixteen countries!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu nodded. When modern people talk about Britain, they can't avoid the long-awaited queen.
"Well, let me tell you...knights? I remember that the knights in Britain are quite powerful, and there are even top masters among them. If I have the chance, I really want to go to Britain to learn how powerful the British knights are!"
Busujima Saeko also chimed in.
"That's an answer that suits your status, Saeko!"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu smiled, and then looked at "Yan Kai" who had been silent all this time: "Junior, what about you?"
"..."
"Yan Kai" was silent for a while, mainly because she realized that as a Central Plains person, the answer to this question might not be so pleasant.
The Angsa gang, the East India Company, the Opium War, global colonization, the slave trade, the land enclosure movement...etc., etc., it feels like the country of Britain has really done nothing good!
Then "Yan Kai" brought into this issue as a European.
But thinking about this question as a European, the answer "Yan Kai" came up with is also very bad.
British pirates, privateering licenses, offshore balancers, Europe's troublemakers, finally get out (referring to Brexit)... Really, this country, even in Europe, is hated by everyone!
But why, judging from Kasumigaoka Shiu's and the others' attitudes, do they think they have a very high opinion of Britain?
Oh, by the way, Britain and Japan are both island countries, and they are sympathetic to each other.
Speaking of which, the two countries Japan and Britain really have a lot of similarities. Not only are they both island countries, one is an East Asian troublemaker, and the other is a European shithole. It’s no problem for these two countries to form a group to debut. The nickname is also simple, just call it "Double Flower Red Stick".
Moreover, these two countries have a very close connection with the same country-American. One is the good son of American, and the other is "conjugated father and son" with American. In this way, the relationship between Japan and Britain is How to calculate the relationship?
You call me brother and I call you grandson? Or should I call you brother and you call me grandpa?
So complicated...
"Yan Kai" felt a faint headache.
"Junior, I have a question for you!"
Xia Zhiqiu Shiyu saw that "Yan Kai" was silent and couldn't help but urge.
"Yan Kai", who was urged by Kasumigaoka Shiyu, had no choice but to say: "Let's make an anti-French alliance."
"Anti-French Alliance?"
Kasumigaoka Shiyu was stunned for a moment.
"Yeah." "Yan Kai" nodded, "Seven anti-French alliances, and they have it every time!"
"ha?"
…………………………
"Police Asaya, I am very happy to cooperate with you. My father said that you are an outstanding and capable policeman. Retreating to the rear is really a waste of your talents!"
In a conference room of "Suigetsu Palace", the Security Department Counselor Muromachi Yukiko reached out to Mitsuko Asaya of the Criminal Department. Behind her, a team of fully armed special police stood upright with guns. Just standing there gave people a huge impression. pressure.
The protection work this time was of great importance, and the Criminal Department alone was not enough. Therefore, the Minister of Criminal Affairs, Odagiri Toshiro, could only borrow people from the Security Department, and borrowed the Special Strike Force of the Security Department.
Japan's police department is roughly equivalent to the Central Plains' PTU and armed police departments, and the special assault force is the elite unit of the police department responsible for counter-terrorism and hostage rescue. It is the trump card of the police department. There are only three teams in the entire Metropolitan Police Department. They can borrow The reason why a team came to dispatch the Criminal Department was because Deputy Director Akechi was coordinating behind the scenes, otherwise Odagiri Toshiro would not have such a great reputation.
Facing the hand extended by Yukiko Muromachi, Mitsuko Asaya took it without any hesitation.
Although there are a lot of nasty things happening between the various departments of the Metropolitan Police Department, now is not the time for office politics.
The two white and tender little hands squeezed gently and then let go. The two bespectacled beauties looked at each other and smiled, which made the police officers around them find it very eye-catching.
Not to mention Yukiko Muromachi, she is a beauty who can stand shoulder to shoulder with the three dazzling dream-like beauties, Ryoko Yakushiji, Sakurako Kujo, and Esdeath. Mitsuko Asaya is already nearly forty years old, and her appearance alone It's still beautiful.
After retiring from the front line and switching to logistics work, Mitsuko Asaya no longer has to work overtime day and night, nor is she woken up by phone calls in the middle of the night. She no longer has to hang out with a group of rough men for days and nights without even being able to change her clothes. She clocks in and gets off work on time, has a stable work and rest schedule, and has more time to take care of herself, so now she doesn’t look like a middle-aged woman at all. Instead, because she has time to carefully take care of her makeup, Mitsuko Asaya looks less slovenly now than she did fifteen years ago. It was even more beautiful when she was young.
"No, I am the one. It's a real honor for me to work with Counselor Muromachi. Is Director Muromachi in good health?"
After shaking hands, Mitsuko Asaya and Yukiko Muromachi greeted each other politely.
Although Asaya Mitsuko graduated from the Psychology Department of Nancheng University and became a police officer, she was highly regarded by the upper class when she first became a police officer because of her outstanding abilities and academic qualifications. She was completely trained as a police elite. Even Muromachi Yukiko's father, Director Muromachi, who was the police chief at the time, also admired this top student in the psychology department and specially sent her to the Inunaki Police Station to participate in the capture of "Cat Eyes". The original intention was to give her experience , and after improving his merits, he was transferred back to the main department to be entrusted with important responsibilities, but it was a pity that later...forget it, the past is unbearable to look back on.
Later, Director Muromachi retired, and after the transition of a police director who was just a mess, the newly appointed Director Hakuba began to vigorously suppress police officers who had close ties with Director Muromachi. Of course, Mitsuko Asaya, a police officer who had been personally interviewed by the former Director Muromachi, also During the suppression, although she was not assigned to the local police station to drink northwest wind, she was also transferred from the front line to the logistics department. She drank tea and read newspapers every day and supported you, but she did not reuse you.
In this regard, Mitsuko Asaya, who has seen through many things, is not discouraged. Instead, she is somewhat grateful to Director Hakuba for giving her the opportunity to maintain her health. She has lived a retired life ahead of schedule with peace of mind. After get off work, she occasionally participates in social gatherings with colleagues. In addition to calling from home from time to time, The call to urge marriage came, but otherwise Mitsuko Asaya was very satisfied with his current life.
But now it seems that the peaceful life can no longer go on. Yukiko Muromachi mentioned her father, former director Muromachi. This seemed to be just a friendly remark, but in fact it meant that Mitsuko Asaya would fully support her in the future. After all, In a sense, she is also considered a member of the Muromachi faction and belongs to the "political legacy" left by former Director Muromachi at the Metropolitan Police Department.
"Father is in good health. Thank you Qian Gu for your concern."
Muromachi Yukiko showed a decent smile.
"It's almost time, let's get to work!"
After finishing the polite words, Muromachi Yukiko stopped smiling and spread some drawings on the table, and then Mitsuko Asaya began to discuss how to set up defenses.
"This is the architectural drawing of 'Shuiyue Palace'. I asked for it from the director of 'Shuiyue Palace'. The third floor is where the 'Dark Star' will be stored in the future. Because President Saikawa has not returned yet, there is no Saikawa." With the president's authorization, we can't enter for the time being, so we can only use the architectural drawings of 'Shuiyue Palace' to simulate the protective layout. Asaya Police is an old opponent of 'Maoyan', and I believe they know the methods of 'Maoyan' very well, so I think Use your experience to see which places should be protected."
Muromachi Yukiko said to Asaya Mitsuko.
Mitsuko Asaya pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "...If you don't dislike me for being the loser of 'Maoyan', you should go all out!"
"Then I'll thank Qian Gu for the police first!"
Muromachi Yukiko nodded.
After a long discussion that made him dizzy, Asaya Mitsuko rubbed his temples and asked Muromachi Yukiko to go to the bathroom.
Seeing Yukiko Muromachi, who was focusing on her work from beginning to end, working hard on every detail of the deployment, starting discussions in the morning, and still energetic in the afternoon, Mitsuko Asaya felt a little like she had seen the past. Own.
When she first became a police officer, she seemed to be working so hard. No, it was to prove that women can be stronger than men. She was even more desperate than Yukiko Muromachi now.
Shouldn't you try your best again? After Deputy Director Akechi took over, the Metropolitan Police Department has become different from before. Even Yukiko Muromachi has returned to the Metropolitan Police Department. Maybe she can be reused?
Just when he was thinking about whether to fight again, Mitsuko Asaya, who had been discussing with Yukiko Muromachi all morning at the table, began to feel a pain in his waist, as if he was telling Mitsuko Asaya, wake up, you old woman. Why fight with someone else's little girl?
I’m old, I’m old, and I can’t accept it anymore!
Mitsuko Asaya held his waist and said.
Not only her waist, but also the hunger in her stomach told Mitsuko Asaya that she had forgotten to eat lunch.
Obviously, when I was still working on the front line, I was busy from morning to midnight, and there were often days when I didn't have a drop of water or a grain of rice in between. Now, just because I haven't eaten lunch, I feel my stomach is rebelling again. Mitsuko Asaya understands that he has returned. No more going to the front line.
When she came to the bathroom, Mitsuko Asaya flushed her face first to refresh herself, because at this time in the past, she should have been taking a nap.
Oops, should I find something to eat to fill my stomach? I feel like I’ll be even sleepier after eating!
Mitsuko Asaya took the tissue from his hand and wiped his face, then said thank you to the person next to him who held the tissue for him.
Um? There seems to be something wrong?
Mitsuko Asaya suddenly turned his head and looked beside him.
Gan! I can’t see clearly without my glasses!
He quickly put on his glasses and saw Ningzi standing next to him with a playful smile.
Mitsuko Asaya pushed up his glasses and looked at the hair accessory on Ningzi's head. Well, it was a white cat.
"White Cat, why did you sneak in here?"
Mitsuko Asaya said in surprise.
"Of course he came in openly!"
Utsumi Ningzi said with a smile.
Mitsuko Asaya patted his forehead: "I forgot, your family should have been invited too!"
"Aunt Qiangu..."
Mitsuko Asaya hugged Mitsuko Asaya's arm, his beautiful big eyes flickered, and he didn't say anything, just staring at Mitsuko Asaya.
"Why, you little girl, do you want me to betray the Metropolitan Police Department's information to you again?"
Mitsuko Asaya pushed Neko Utsumi away.
"Don't be like this, Aunt Qiangu, we are doing good things..."
Utsumi Ningzi playfully entangled Asaya Mitsuko again, but this time Asaya Mitsuko did not push Utsumi Ningzi away.
"Auntie has already bought insurance for 'Dark Star'. Even if 'Dark Star' disappears, Nishikawa Jewelry will receive 10 billion yen in insurance compensation. We estimate that Nishikawa Masaaki will not be able to pay out 10 billion yen." He bought the 'Dark Star' for yen. He used it to hype it up, which provided him with a lot of benefits. With the addition of 10 billion yen, he would have made a lot of money, and there would be nothing. Loss. As for what the 'Dark Star' is, we have also explained it to Aunt Asaya. You also know that it is not Nishikawa Masaaki's thing. We just want it to be returned to its original owner. So, Aunt Asaya, please help us. Well!"
Utsumi Ningzi leaned her head against Asaya Mitsuko's arms and kept arching her head.
"Hey, you are really... a bad cat all the time!"
Asaya Mitsuko sighed, and when her sigh fell in Utsumi Ningzi's ears, she immediately laughed, because she knew that Aunt Asaya had compromised.
On the other side, also in a conference room, Nakamori Ginzo and Kuroba Kaito were pointing at the same architectural drawings.
"Uncle Nakamori, look here, there is a vent here. Although if it is 'Kid', even if he does not use it to sneak in, he may arrange some strange props on it and then appear at the critical moment to disturb us!"
"Also, Uncle Zhongmori, this time there are three groups of policemen cooperating for protection. The three groups of policemen are not familiar with each other. Will it give 'Kidd' an opportunity to fish in troubled waters? Otherwise, we should agree on a set of code words, since the three groups of policemen are not familiar with each other. What do you think about the code exchange between two people before they meet?"
Listening to Kuroba Kaito constantly making some "reliable" suggestions, Nakamori Ginzo pounded the table excitedly: "Very good Kaito, with your help this time we will definitely catch 'Kid'!"
