Fate!
This time line is after the special manga's story... please enjoy~~
Ishigami Hideki starts his morning with his typical morning routine..
He gets up, heads to the shower, gets dress, makes breakfast and so on... however.. today was different. Head Quarters had given him a new case to work on. He drove his car to work and he sigh at the thought of this new case cause he heard it from Kurosawa, it was a minor case.
He reached head quarters and starts going up to his office where he will receive his file from Goto. Once he got into his office, he sat there crossed leg at his desk - and starts unpacking his bag.
The door knocks...
"Come in.." Hideki ordered the person on the other side of the door.
"Ishigami san.." said Goto who stepped into the office but he was not carrying a file.
"And... you said you have the case file to give me, Goto?" Hideki asked.
"I was supposed to, but Narita wanted to brief us about the case in the briefing room..." Goto replied.
"Narita? Since when he has the interest in minor cases?"
"Ishigami san... this was a minor case..." Goto said worriedly, judging by the seriousness from him - Hideki shot him a stare.
"And what has become of this case?" Hideki asked, but before he could get his answer... Goto turns around to the door.
"Narita is waiting for us right now..." and he left, leaving Hideki behind to guess.
Not wanting to guess any more further, he pushed his glasses up and starts heading for the briefing room - he questioned about the case... what does Goto meant about it, 'it was a minor case'. Once there, he noticed Kaga was sitting up in front of the room.
"Why is he here?" he thought to himself as he goes and sit besides him, not wanting to look at Kaga - he looks at his watch and the door.
The meeting starts when all of the members are present in the room and so as Narita himself... He pass out files to each and everyone.
"About this case... I want Ishigami's team to handle it..." Narita said, everyone started to whisper to each other.
Kaga snickered right beside Hideki, he stares coldly at Kaga and begins to talk.
"I have no intentions on taking up this case, Narita san..."
"Ha ha! It actually suits you four eyes! You're the one to do 'minor' cases like these.." Kaga laughed.
While the two started arguing with each other, the other members took a look at the contents of the file...
"Hey, Kurosawa... isn't this the ex model?" said a member of the second unit.
"I guess you're right, Nomura san..." Kurosawa replied as he looks through the file.
"Oh.. another 'ex celebrity' crime?" Ayumu grunted.
"Eh hem!" Narita clears his throat before continuing his briefing.
"You lot! We are still briefing about the case! The case started as a normal stalking case... However, things got worst as the victim has received a bomb threat at her work place from an unknown person. So do go through your files and let me know by the end of the day, Ishigami san... I hope you pay attention to this..." Narita finished his briefing and left the room.
Everyone left, one after another... back to their work and Hideki walks back into his office. He still have not open the file and yet he heard, bomb threat. It was considered a major case, even Kaga shuts up at those words.
He sat in his chair and starts to open the file, he slowly read how it became that serious... and then he turns to the other page where the victim's bio is there.
"!!!" he stop reading when he saw the name of the victim.
"Could it be?" he asked himself while he thought about the first time he went to a high school reunion which was invited by his good friend and politician, Yuusuke.
2 years ago...
He hesitated earlier when Yuusuke invited him to their high school reunion... He was not prepared but he still agreed to it.
"Maybe she is there..." he thought.
"Hideki!!! Glad you can make it!!!" Yuusuke was the first to greet him at the party.
"Hello Yuusuke.."
"I'm really glad you can make it... but... sorry to tell you... she left earlier..."
"Who? Her?"
"Yes... the one that you have been trying to find..."
"She was here?! How is she?! Was she alone?!" he frantically asked.
"Whoa.. whoooooa... hold on to your horses! Let me answer it one by one!" Yuusuke scolded him.
"I'm sorry... I just... got excited..." he replied.
"Riiiiiiiiight... She was here... She wasn't alone, cause she came here with her brother... and~~~ she looks different from the first time we met..."
"Different? How?" he questioned again.
"You can say, she has grown up into a fine lady..." Yuusuke said as he grinned at him.
"Yuusuke... You're beginning to sound like a perv... stop that or I will arrest you..."
"Alright, alright Mr. Superintendent... you win..."
"Did you get her number? Where does she stay? Where does she work?" more questions from Hideki, Yuusuke frown and said, "I'm sorry... I forgot since there were a lot of people to greet..."
"Darn you Yuusuke... I was this close in finding her again..."
"Don't worry about it, Hideki... Fate will bring you back together again... but... maybe not now..."
Hideki went back to his apartment after a few drinks with his friends from high school and through out his way home, he reminiscent about his last year in high school...
Present...
Hideki goes through the case file again, and without any delays... he went up to Narita and agreed to take up the case.
"Oh, you finally taking this into your hands?" Narita asked.
"Yes... so where was this reported? I want to interview the victim..."
"The report was made in Marunouchi police station, in Kudan Minami - Chiyoda..."
"Alright... I shall head over there and do the interview..." Hideki said as he turned to walk towards the door.
"You're going now? Why not tomorrow? Or at least call them now to make an appointment with them and the victim..." Kurosawa over heard the conversation pops out behind him.
"Then... Kurosawa, you do the appointment while I get my files ready..."
"Ok.. but... is it for tomorrow?" Kurosawa asked.
Hideki was already excited but he needs to calm down and think... "Yes, tomorrow will be fine..." he said as he disappear into his office, figuring if the victim is truly her...
To be continued...
