Tokyo: Rabbit Officer and Her Evil Partner-Chapter 787 - 479: The Stalker

Fushimi Roku’s plan went smoother than expected.

Now, Fushimi Roku’s public image is roughly equivalent to Momosuke’s. Although there’s a small faction of brainless female fans who follow their appearance rather than values, the vast majority of normal people have pegged him as a scumbag.

After the show aired, the video became a huge success and stirred up another wave of frenzy.

Originally, everyone was just spectating and morally condemning Fushimi Roku, until a financial news outlet somehow dug up the issue of bond trafficking... Not just Tokyo, but all of Japan was in an uproar. 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

Traders in the financial sector had a revelation that this game could be played in such a way!

They were like sharks smelling blood, launching a large-scale ’gold rush,’ continuously acquiring and holding non-performing bonds, attempting to sell them abroad. For a moment, the Japanese economy showed signs of recovery.

Until the Ministry of Health and the Financial Bureau intervened, urgently implementing a series of regulations like anti-monopoly laws and foreign trade agreement restrictions, bringing this farce to an abrupt halt, with the recently warming economy plummeting like diarrhea.

Now everyone knows Fushimi Roku is a despicable person. Not only did he deceive naive and kind-hearted dumb female cops, he even pioneered domestic and foreign bond trafficking. In some sense, his notoriety has reached a peak.

Fushimi Roku pretended not to care at all; after finishing moving chores, he brought all the kitchenware over, set up access control, and sent invitations to Watanabe Shun and the others, inviting them over for a drink at his mansion.

Watanabe Shun and Kazama Tatsuya came as agreed, bringing along two junior colleagues, one named Muto Yuuta, an active-duty criminal police officer at Ikebukuro Police Station; the other named Yamashita Rokurou, a patrol officer at Nakagawara Police Station. He had previously attended a case with Watanabe Shun involving Hondo Yuji jumping off a bridge.

Minamoto Tamako thought there was a housewarming party happening, so she invited Sister Yasurou, who also brought two female officers named Kawada Saeko and Kamisaki Ayaka.

Everyone entered the courtyard one after another, and Minamoto Tamako set up a barbecue grill on the lawn, planning to enjoy a camping experience. She invited everyone to sit at the wooden table on the lawn, with men and women sitting in two separate rows. The atmosphere inexplicably turned a bit strange, feeling a bit like a social gathering, with everyone trying to find something to talk about.

"Ah, I was so nervous when I came in just now..." Patrol officer Rokurou said, blushing.

"Did you encounter the reporters too?" Kamisaki Ayaka replied.

"Yes, yes, there were so many reporters outside. I always thought Senior Fushimi would become famous, but I didn’t expect it to be this way..." Patrol officer Rokurou still admired both Fushimi Roku and Minamoto Tamako.

Watanabe Shun heard this, sitting to the side grinning foolishly, almost visibly gloating. He dragged Fushimi Roku over, imitating a famous scene from a variety show: "No, no, no, no, there must be some mistake!"

Fushimi Roku didn’t call them over for a housewarming banquet, nor to let them eat and drink for free, much less to disgrace himself once more.

He sat expressionlessly at the head of the table and said, "Only fools would take television variety shows seriously; it’s all fake. I acted it out, okay?"

"I don’t believe it." Watanabe Shun looked at Kazama Tatsuya: "Boss, do you believe it? That the scenes in the show were all staged?"

"Don’t keep poking at others’ sore spots. Yes, variety shows are indeed staged," Kazama Tatsuya criticized but didn’t let Fushimi Roku off the hook either: "Wasn’t Mr. Fushimi only acting halfway? I thought the acting was great, especially that line, ’I’m Fushimi Roku, a criminal police officer uninterested in money and power, whose daily life is filled with work...’ "

Watanabe Shun slapped the table and laughed loudly, and Moriyama Yasurou followed suit, rocking back and forth. The remaining juniors wanted to laugh but didn’t dare, all holding back, making snickering sounds.

"Go ahead and laugh, just laugh." Fushimi Roku waved his hand: "Only people as idle as you would have the time to watch garbage variety shows like that."

He straightened his collar and said, "I’m different, I’m very busy..."

"Busy with appearing on shows?" Moriyama Yasurou interrupted.

Watanabe Shun once again cooperated with a burst of laughter. He eagerly pulled out his beeper to share the new joke of the day with his gang of friends and old colleagues.

A few seconds later, the Nakagawara Police Station office echoed with the sound of incoming message alerts. Chief Kikuchi glanced at his phone and exchanged a knowing smile with a subordinate.

Fushimi Roku glanced around, seeing no one bringing up the recent serial murder case, he had to give Minamoto Tamako a look, signaling her to come over quickly.

Minamoto Tamako was by the barbecue grill, cooking meat. Noticing Fushimi Roku’s unusual expression, she thought he was hungry, so she brought over the tray, placing the grilled beef ribs on the table and asking, "What’s wrong? What are you guys talking about?"

Fushimi Roku seized the moment to speak before others could make fun of him: "We were talking about what we’ve been busy with lately... that said, what case have you been busy with recently?"

Watanabe Shun was not pleased; this guy knew all three of them had been fired and asked deliberately to take revenge. He immediately complained to Kazama Tatsuya: "Boss, this guy is poking at sore spots too."

Kazama Tatsuya, being generous, expressed indifference.

Finally, someone brought up the topic that Fushimi Roku wanted to discuss.

"We’ve been investigating a serial murder case recently, it was on the papers a while ago, where several dignitaries died..." Patrol officer Rokurou was quite straightforward, answering truthfully.

Fushimi Roku quickly responded: "What a coincidence, Tamako and I also joined the Special Investigation Department to handle this case."

Patrol officer Rokurou scratched his head: "I didn’t get into the Special Investigation Department, just assisting on the periphery, helping set up checkpoints or doing visits..."
