"Officer, when can we leave?" Reiji Fukuura, Haruka Tendo and Takuto Iigai, who had been interrogated by the police, asked anxiously after realizing that Sotakuya was the leader of the gang.
"Judging from the current situation at the scene, the deceased most likely fell to his death accidentally, but homicide cannot be ruled out."
So Takuya's eyes wandered around the three people and then said: "So we may need a few more people to come to the Metropolitan Police Department to assist in the investigation."
Sotakuya's words made the three of them feel like they were granted amnesty. Does this mean they can leave now?
"but--"
The sudden turn of events caused the three college students to freeze up, and they raised their heads with difficulty to look at Sotakuya, who was breathing heavily as he spoke.
"But we need to take this car back to the Metropolitan Police Department for a comprehensive inspection. Are you okay?
By the way, which of you is the car owner? "
After hearing Sotakuya's question, Reiji Fukuura and Takuto Iigai immediately turned their attention to Tendo Qingka.
"Oh? Are you the owner of this RV?
It's a really nice car. "
Sotakuya pretended not to notice the troubled look on Tendo Qinghua's face and complimented "her car".
Fukuura Reiji, who had been nervous being interrogated by the serious-looking detective, relaxed after discovering that Sotakuya was not so serious.
Her frivolous nature could no longer be concealed, and she said to Sotakuya proudly: "This car does not belong to Qinghua, she borrowed it from an uncle with whom she has a good relationship~
To be honest, we think this car is great too! "
"Oh? So she's the eldest daughter of a rich family? How disrespectful." Zong Tuozai said easily, casually taking a report handed over by the police next to him.
"I'd like to ask the police officer about that." Just as Zou Takuya was reading the report, Tendo Qinghua, who was looking troubled, finally said:
"How long does this car need to be kept at the Metropolitan Police Department?"
"Well" Tendo Qinghua's question made Sotakuya raise his head and look at them again: "Let me think about it."
Zong Takuya pretended to think, and then said to Tiantang Qinghua: "It's like this, because the forensics department has too many criminal cases backlogged, resulting in a shortage of manpower.
Therefore, the progress of the inspection will inevitably be slower. Judging from the current queue of cases,
I think almost two months and no more than three months. "
Tiantian Qinghua obviously didn't expect that the RV would need to be detained for so long, and she suddenly became impatient:
“Officer, isn’t there any way to speed up the progress a little bit?
After all, I borrowed my uncle’s car and was detained for so long.”
Tendo Qinghua said with difficulty, but she just dodged and did not dare to look at Zong Takuya, which seemed to indicate that the matter was not simple.
But there is something else hidden.
Faced with Tendo Qinghua's request, Zong Takuya didn't look embarrassed at all. Instead, he expressed sympathy very skillfully:
"Indeed, being detained like this for three months is really unjustifiable. Let me think about it."
So Takuya said, flipping through the documents in his hand again, and then looked up at Tendo Qinghua in surprise:
"Hey, this car is registered in the car rental company's name. Your uncle turns out to be in the car rental business~
This is easy to handle! "
When Sotakuya said that the RV was registered to the car rental company, Tendo Qinghua became visibly panicked.
But the second half of Sotakuya's words made Tendo Qinghua relax slightly.
"In that case, just ask your uncle to take the formalities to the Forensic Section of the Metropolitan Police Department to go through an expedited procedure.
In this case, the car can be taken out in about a week. "
This news is undoubtedly the best news for Tiantang Qinghua.
This RV is worth a lot of money, and renting it for three consecutive months is simply not something Tiantang Qinghua can afford.
But if it was only for a week, she would be able to catch up if she compressed her rest time and worked two more jobs.
What she has to do now is to persuade the owner of the car rental agency to apply to the Metropolitan Police Department.
Just when Tendo Qinghua thought she could breathe a sigh of relief, Sotakuya's demonic voice sounded again.
I saw him looking at Tiantian Qinghua with deep meaning: "Speaking of which, your luck is really good.
Thank you for borrowing the car instead of renting it.
Renting a luxury RV like this is very expensive, and not many people would rent it.
If I were the owner of a car rental agency, I would rather this car be left in the Metropolitan Police Department for three months.
In this way, whether it is the rental fee or parking fee, it is a large amount of income. "
"Really?!"
At this moment, Tiantian Qinghua only felt that her emotions were ups and downs, as if she was riding a roller coaster, soaring to the sky and then falling freely.
Her abnormal mood attracted the attention of Reiji Fukuura and Takuto Iigo.
"What's wrong, Qinghua?"
Tian Tian Qinghua suppressed the emotions in her heart and forced a smile: "Sorry, I need to make a phone call."
After saying that, Tiantian Qinghua quickly walked aside and picked up her mobile phone to communicate with the other party.
Iihe Takuto looked at Tendo Qinghua, who seemed to be having trouble communicating with the other party on the phone, and said worriedly: "Qinghua, is she okay?"
Fukuura Reiji looked very relaxed: "Don't worry, Qinghua will take care of everything.
By the way, officer, since we are not needed here, we can leave now, right? "
Fukuura Reiji obviously realized something, and his desire to leave became stronger.
"Didn't you come together? Aren't you going to leave together?" Zong Takuya found that Tiantang Qinghua walked back with a very ugly face after making a phone call, and simply made a few gossips to delay the two of them here.
Fukuura Reiji also found that Sotakuya seemed to be planning to watch their entertainment, but he dared not speak out in anger.
Seeing Tian Qinghua return, Fukuura Reiji forced a smile: "Officer Qinghua said we can leave, do you want to go with us?"
Tendo Qinghua, who was interrupted by Fukuura Reiji, almost gave up the idea of asking for help, but when she saw Sotakuya asking someone to drive a RV back to the Metropolitan Police Department, she finally made up her mind.
She had just been on the phone with the owner of the car rental agency. Just as the section chief said, the owner of the car rental agency was not surprised or angry when he heard the news that the RV was impounded, but he was filled with visible joy.
When she asked her boss to apply for the forensics course, she was rejected, saying that he was not in Tokyo and would not be back in a short time.
Even the owner of the car rental agency couldn't wait to call and said that the loss was caused by Tiantang Qinghua himself and that extra parking fees would be charged.
Good guy, that's called knocking the bones and sucking out the marrow.
Unable to afford the fee, Tiantang Qinghua finally decided to confess her situation to her "friends".
And I hope that for the sake of their friendship, they can help her - although one person cannot afford the stoppage fee, it will be much easier if three people bear it together.
Tian Qinghua also hopes that her friends can accept their true self.
But judging from the current situation. (End of chapter)
