Blind Need

Chapter 4

By: NailBunnyDeadBunny

Ryoma knew one thing, that the asshole in front of him needed to be beaten in the head, and Ryoma was all for that job but the asshole's lawyer was next to him would not let him.

"I want to know why you need to be here Mr. Lawyer-whose-name-I-don't-care-to-remember, it is not like he is a suspect…yet."

"Mr. Echizen my client believes you might ask some unfair questions."

"Mr. Lawyer I don't care what your client thinks I'm blind so your client could lie and I would never know."

"Mr. Echizen be reasonable."

"No reasonable is for sissies, this is a dog eat dog world. Now would you shut up and let me ask your client some damn questions before I start beating someone in the head."

"Mr. Echizen your being outrageous!"

"No I am being a defense attorney now sit back and let me ask the questions."

There is a knocking on the door.

"Enter." stated Ryoma

The door opened revealing a male with black hair that was pulled into a low ponytail and a pair of dark shades that went nice with his black suit and blood red shirt. Walking in, he clapped his hands three times before sitting next to Ryoma.

"About time you get here."

"Who is he?"

"This is my partner Alex. He is going to help me out."

"I was told that there would be two people questioning my client."

"Alex is not going to be asking any questions it is just going to be just me."

"I don't believe that."

"He's mute so you will have no problems from him asking questions. You see my normal assistant is not a trained lawyer so she is not able to do much plus I have her running around doing other things that are just as important."

The other lawyer looked disbelieving, but did not continued.

"Now that I have the right to ask questions you are Mr. Fuji Akito, am I right?"

"Yes."

"You are twenty years old."

"Yes."

"You were the one that witnessed Yuuta in his drunken rage shot your uncle?"

"Yes."

"In your words what happen."

"I was caring for my uncle again like every time he got sick. And around midnight I heard someone at the front door and when I opened the door Yuuta pushed me out of way made his way passed me to the back room where he pulled out a gun and shot our uncle. Then he ran back out the front door and around the side of the house where he ran into the field and that is where I lost him."

"Really wouldn't the back door be more useful if you are just going run into the field behind the house?"

"He was drunk so he must have forgotten."

"Whatever you say. So did you lose him as he ran out of the house and around the side or where you able to follow him till he got to the field?"

"I lost him when he got to the field and was able to disappear in to the plants."

"Now how did you get that strange limp in your step?"

"I fell off a motorcycle. What does this have to do with the case?"

"Nothing."

"Look I have someone to meet, please excuse me."

Akito and his lawyer got up and left the room. When the door shut Alex made a slight noise.

"Yes Alex, I might be blind but even I could tell that the guy was so full of shit that his eyes must have been brown."

A light raspy sound sounded and Ryoma knew that Alex was laughing, meaning that the weasel had brown eyes.

When the door opened the sound of high heels reached Ryoma's ears.

"So did you get what I wanted?" asked Ryoma

"Of course, though the judge was hesitant about giving us permission to exhume the body. And I also managed to get everything on this case which is not much."

"Of course it's horrible police work."

"Well how did it go with your suspect?"

"As well as it could have gone with another lawyer in the room, you would think that if he was not guilty he would not need a damn lawyer for several easy questions. Then lord sissy pants ran away like a beaten puppy."

"So you didn't get much."

"No I just really sure that I want that autopsy and now."

Ryoma stood up followed by Alex.

"Well I think that it's time to find Yukimaru so we can find out what you think Alex." stated Ryoma

"He is out front waiting."

Alex quickly swept out of the room quickly to find his translator and boyfriend.

When Ryoma first met Alex they became fast friends despite the problems communicating. But when they arrived in Japan for vacation they ran into Yukimaru who could talk and translator Alex's sign language. Yukimaru did not know completely what happen to cause Ryoma to leave, but he was smart and Ryoma was sure that he had it almost figured out. He just needs the whos involved.

But Ryoma was in no hurry to give up names and he was not looking forward to meeting with most of his old team mates and rivals. Monkey King had planned one of his huge parties to "celebrate" Ryoma's return. More like he just wanted to flaunt that he, the great Atobe Keigo, had convinced the brat to return.

At least Alex would be there to take some of the attention off of him, or least until Yukimaru got tired of sharing and dragged Alex away.

Walking outside Miss Juliet snorted and made a few muttering noises that sounded like, "You need two need to break it up."

Which meant that Alex had his tongue shoved down Yukimaru's throat, and it was one of the things that made Ryoma glade that he was blind and he could preserve his innocence of not seeing someone that he sees as a rival acting like a uke.

Because that is just awkward shit.

Walking past the couple he also had to admit to himself that if he could see them together then it would remind him of his own failed relationship. The thought of his last vision of his boyfriend, at the time, was the sight of him cheating on him. And that still cut him deep like a freshly sharpened knife that didn't want to stop.

He really did not want to do this, he rather still be in London where he had a nice place and none of these memories that he worked so hard to forget of hide.

Great he was depressed now and in need of a real stiff drink.

He really hated being here and facing his past which he rather run from.

Of course that was just his personality to not deal with something until the last possible minute.

He hoped that Monkey King had a stash of stiff drinks.
