"The old gentleman is not doing well."
In the hospital corridor, Shirahawa Jing stood next to Sato Miwako and said in a calm tone:
"It was very serious internal bleeding. Due to the violent impact, his internal organs were damaged to varying degrees.
Due to the old gentleman's age, our hospital initially thought that he might not survive the initial dangerous period, but fortunately, he finally survived the most dangerous stage with amazing perseverance.
Although the old gentleman has not yet woken up, he is recovering very quickly. If he continues at this rate, he should be able to wake up in two days at most..."
"That's really good news." Miwako Sato said with a smile after silently writing down Shirazuki's words.
"Well, it is indeed good news." Bai Hejing nodded and agreed with her words.
Then the two of them fell silent, and the air became quiet again for a while.
The silence didn't last long. Miwako Sato looked down at the time and said:
"Okay, it's almost time, so I'll leave first."
After saying that, without waiting for Bai Hejing's response, Miwako Sato turned around and left.
Behind him, Bai Hejing looked away from James in the ward and looked at the back of Sato Miwako gradually walking away in the corridor, her eyes deep.
"..."
On the other side, after Miwako Sato left the hospital, she drove directly back to the Metropolitan Police Department. After handling a few small cases, she worked overtime until night before driving back to her apartment.
"Huh? Ah, okay, okay, I understand..."
Walking downstairs to the apartment, Sato Miwako was talking to Takagi Wataru on the phone.
"I know, Takagi, you too, go to bed early. There are so many cases recently. If you don't take a good rest, you will lose your energy to handle the cases... Well, I understand, bye."
After hanging up the phone, Sato Miwako took out the key and inserted it into the door lock.
Few people knew that she and Takagi were not just having an affair. The two had actually entered a semi-cohabitation stage long ago, and would go to each other's house to spend the night from time to time.
Although it sounds unbelievable, it is the fact. After all, we are all adults, and there is no need to engage in the ambiguous and youthful behavior of young men and women.
They are all close to being married, so they should be more mature, express what they like, and be together if they are suitable. Why are there so many twists and turns?
"Click."
The door opened in response, and Miwako Sato walked into the house. She glanced at the living room out of habit, and then she was stunned.
In the dark living room, a man was sitting next to the chair, also looking at her.
Her heartbeat almost skipped a beat, but soon Miwako Sato barely recognized the man.
"Are you...Mamiya Kokoro?" Miwako Sato asked tentatively while standing by the door without moving.
"Good evening, Officer Sato."
In the darkness, Mamiya Shin sat on a chair, smiled and spoke softly.
"I'm sorry for breaking into your room without your permission."
"I didn't hear any intention of apologizing from your tone..."
Hearing the familiar voice, Miwako Sato relaxed, changed her shoes, and asked:
"Do you need to turn on the light?"
"If you don't turn on the lights when you go home, it will easily arouse others' suspicion." Mamiya Shin naturally understood the meaning of Sato Miwako's words.
"When did you come in?"
Turning on the light, Sato Miwako poured herself a glass of water and gestured to Mamiya Kokoro next to her.
Mamiyaxin shook her head and refused, and replied: "It's not early, just a few minutes before you go home, Officer Sato."
"It sounds like you still know the time when I get home from get off work?" Sato Miwako was keenly aware of this.
"I'm very sorry." Mamiyaxin apologized again.
"Please at least sound sincere when you apologize..."
Sato Miwako sighed helplessly. Mamiya Kokoro's intention to apologize was obvious. There were FBI people around her monitoring her.
Sato Miwako is not surprised by this result. After all, she was tricked into the situation by Mamiya. It is normal and understandable that they send people to monitor her.
"This is not surveillance." However, Mamiya Shin opened his mouth to explain: "It is protection.
We know very well, Officer Sato, that you cannot betray us, so we have no reason to monitor you.
Having that colleague stay with you is just to keep you safe and create opportunities for us to connect. "
Mamiya Shin's tone was serious when she said this.
"You just trust me so much?"
Unexpectedly, he would say that. Sato Miwako sat on the chair next to Mamiya Kokoro and asked curiously.
"Yes."
Looking directly into her eyes, Mamiyaxin smiled and replied: "Because we have known about you, Officer Sato, a long time ago, and it is precisely because of this that I chose to take the initiative to contact you."
"It sounds like I have already been investigated by you..."
After complaining, Miwako Sato did not discuss the issue again. Her face straightened and she got to the point.
"I communicated with Miss Judy today according to what you said, and these are her answers."
With that said, she handed the notebook she had written down in the morning to Mamiya Kokoro.
Mamiya Kokoro opened the notebook, glanced at it briefly, then closed it and gave it back to Sato Miwako.
"How about it?"
"She already knows." The corners of Mamiyashin's mouth raised slightly, "How is she doing now?"
"She looks very weak. The nurse said it will take half a month to fully recover." Miwako Sato replied.
"Where's Mr. James?"
"This old gentleman is still in a coma, but the nurse said that he is recovering very quickly. If nothing goes wrong, he should be able to wake up within two days."
"Two days..."
Mamiya lowered his eyes, the expression on his face was very plain, making it impossible to guess what he was thinking at the moment.
His aura was extremely low at this moment, but it soon returned to its original state as if it had bottomed out. He looked at Miwako Sato and said with a smile:
"Officer Sato, thank you very much for your help. You won't have to go to that hospital for us anymore."
"What do you mean? Do you already have an action plan?" After hearing what he said, Miwako Sato asked quickly.
"Yes." Mamiyaxin nodded and replied without hesitation.
"What do you need from me?" Sato Miwako asked again.
"If possible, you only need to inform us after Mr. James wakes up. As for the rest...
Officer Sato, we greatly appreciate your help, but you should not go any further on this matter.
After two consecutive days of visits, that organization is very likely to suspect you now. Of course, Officer Sato, you have a police identity after all, and your actions are fully reasonable.
Therefore, as long as you withdraw now and stop interfering, their suspicion of you will soon dissipate, and you will not encounter any danger afterwards.
This is the best option. "
