Tokyo: Rabbit Officer and Her Evil Partner-Chapter 337 - 258: Officer Tamako Strikes!

Minamoto Tamako pouted, loudly proclaiming who would want to connive with people like them, then questioned who dared to be dissatisfied; who in the Police Department dared to be the protector of the Aum Truth Sect — someday she would have to eliminate these pests one by one!

She firmly believed the corrupt were few, all corrupt officials were paper tigers, merely fearsome in appearance. Asahara Shoko turned things around, claiming the Kujo Family was ’not sociable,’ what blatant nonsense! Treating her like a child is insulting!

She wasn’t a high school girl just stepping into society; she wouldn’t be scared by such ridiculous talk!

Asahara Shoko didn’t name names, he sighed deeply, suddenly stood up and invited Minamoto Tamako to visit, to see the greatness of the New World — she was originally qualified to tour.

Minamoto Tamako realized that this sly old man might want to recruit her, thereby influencing her mother... but thinking again, she felt something was off; how could they recruit people like this?

She nearly died!

Minamoto Tamako didn’t know what Asahara Shoko was up to, given that Sakurako and the others were missing, she grudgingly suppressed her temper, deciding to temporarily go along with it, standing up with Asahara Shoko.

Two believers helped pick up the briefcase, following her on both sides.

Asahara Shoko took the lead, leaving the meeting room, heading up in the elevator, Minamoto Tamako watched the floor numbers change continuously, secretly astonished, how deep was this haunted place...

"The top floor is the exhibition area, usually not open to the public, but given Miss Tamako’s special status, I can make an exception." Asahara Shoko said with his hands behind his back, facing away from her.

Minamoto Tamako thought sarcastically, acting like anyone cared to visit.

Facing away while speaking, he really puts on a show! Even Mr. Fushimi doesn’t act like this!

If she weren’t outmatched, she would take the opportunity to kick him down, give him a beating, and make the squinty-eyed Sect Hierarch not recognize his mother!

Soon, the elevator doors opened.

Minamoto Tamako saw a vast hall at the end of which was a curtain, looking like a theater without seating. Upon entering this hall, one’s gaze automatically focused on that curtain.

She followed out of the elevator, realizing the hall was a circular U-shape, the curtain sealed the U-shape’s mouth, elevators stretched behind her.

Believers behind her pulled out a remote control aimed at the red curtain; before pressing it, the adjacent elevator suddenly chimed ’ding,’ and then the elevator doors opened, a familiar voice of inquiry came:

"What are you taking me to see exactly?"

"Not speaking is very rude..."

"I am a person destined to ascend to immortality!"

...

Minamoto Tamako recognized the voice; when the person stepped out of the elevator, she was no longer surprised.

The visitor was Fujiwara Homare, annoyed by his parents’ nagging about marriage, unwilling to pursue Fushimi Roku’s girlfriend; he decided to leave home, planning to sail for a few months and then return.

But just as he passed through customs, he was detained by members of the Aum Truth Sect.

Now the two met, Fujiwara Homare was surprised, turned to the believer beside him leading the way, querying if they were sent by his parents, intending to press him into marriage.

The crowd was puzzled, giving no answer.

Minamoto Tamako, in Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave, was thrilled at encountering an ally; even if Fujiwara Homare was not the brightest and lacked responsibility in investigations, at least he was the Chief of Police’s criminal division!

She immediately leaned in, continually making eye signals, indicating Fujiwara Homare should quickly take down the squinty-eyed Sect Hierarch — as the criminal division chief, surely he was skilled in combat?

Minamoto Tamako surveyed the scene; there were only four believers leading the way, and a chubby Sect Hierarch who seemed lacking in physical fitness.

Hmm, if she and Fujiwara Homare worked together, handling five weaklings should be no problem!

After subduing the Sect Hierarch, they could extract the whereabouts of others from his mouth, locate mobile phones or communication devices, contact the Police Department headquarters for reinforcements...

Perfect plan!

On the other side, Fujiwara Homare was stunned; he thought the Kujo family’s heiress was interested in him. Given his family, his status, his appearance, receiving admiration from young ladies was usual; but thinking again, he dismissed this possibility, after all, Minamoto Tamako’s family wasn’t lacking, perhaps she too was pressured into marriage by elders, forced to put on a show...

Thinking of this, Fujiwara Homare carefully scrutinized, realizing Minamoto Tamako’s expression indeed appeared stiff, not the look of willingly casting flirtatious glances, so he returned a resolute glance and nodded.

I understand you!

Fellow sufferers in a fallen world...

Due to family alliances, having to separate from loved ones, that taste must be quite unpleasant, right?

Sigh, haven’t encountered such pure emotion in a while... if only I could find such a devoted, good girl.

Fujiwara Homare’s heart was momentarily filled with mixed emotions.

Witnessing this, Minamoto Tamako was greatly encouraged, deciding to charge forward, kicking at the believer beside her, who wasn’t a professional fighter, stumbled from the unexpected assault, nearly falling to the ground.

Seeing the Yuzi Beast suddenly flaring up in attack, Asahara Shoko quickly took a step back, the remaining three believers came forward, two grabbed Minamoto Tamako on either side, lifting her with legs flailing in mid-air, without needing the third to act.

Minamoto Tamako’s plan failed; turning around, she saw Fujiwara Homare idly watching, immediately incensed, gritting her teeth and questioning why he hadn’t acted.

He looked confused, retorting why Minamoto Tamako was acting.

Confronting each other, they discovered the issue.

Fujiwara Homare also experienced trials, but he found no problem with the life-risking trials, instead finding them exciting, novel, and fulfilling — especially after clearing, receiving applause and a significant bonus, feeling his abilities were acknowledged by all.

"What nonsense are you talking about?! They are gambling with lives!" Minamoto Tamako shouted angrily. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

Fujiwara Homare scratched his head, dismissively saying, "Those people came willingly, no one forced them, signed informed consent upon landing, knowing the dangers... their own doing, nothing to do with us?"

Minamoto Tamako couldn’t fathom his thoughts, asking: "Aren’t you afraid of death?"

"Afraid, terrified at the time, but that’s what makes it real!" Fujiwara Homare looked at the believer beside him: "Just explained by Mr. Miura, I was a fifth-level participant, new to the trials, able to stop anytime, wouldn’t really be life-threatening... just meant to scare you!"

Asahara Shoko nodded in agreement: "Exactly so."

Seeing Minamoto Tamako still annoyed, Fujiwara Homare instead felt superior, this girl must have been terrified by the trials, only true men like him could continually ascend ranks!

Moreover, he wasn’t the only participant, his former entourage also came, given the small circle of wealthy heirs, all knew each other, after trials ended, everyone gathered in the meeting room, chatting openly — although kidnapped, everyone enjoyed the trials.

Spending loads of money on skydiving, bungee jumping, gliding, partying, couldn’t capture this new thrill.

Besides, they weren’t doing anything wrong, merely surviving, other participants willingly joined, even death wasn’t their concern?

So it seems, Minamoto Tamako was still too unsociable!
