When the stormy coverage offense was complete, the time was about to be 2 p.m.
My stomach squeaks and complains of hunger, but unfortunately I'm still not going to be able to give him a meal.
Because this time, the police are waiting to investigate.
Cops staring at me with a tough look on their face.
I'm glad you got rid of the reporters, but what you do shouldn't be so different from them.
They'll surround me and dig for roots and leaves. It is so decided.
When I could have lunch, I sighed, and an elderly cop walked out in front of me.
Is it in the mid-fifties? The hair peeping from under the hat is well stroked romance grey. He's slightly taller than me, and his shoulders are disappointingly wide.
It's a tannic look that seems to be in the drama of detectives.
From the standpoint, this man is probably in command of the scene.
"Mr. Neutral, was it"
The older policeman said in a calm voice. The voice is sweet baritone. But in a tone that makes me feel awesome, it makes me look at the training grounds many times.
A history of warfare, desperately covered up by gentlemen behaving in a gentleman's manner.
I had a similar impression when confronted with a veteran warrior in another world.
Come to think of it, the most experienced armed group in modern Japan is the police, not the militia.
That would also be a race that would no longer be so different from a soldier who continued to take command on the front lines when he became a veteran of the field group rather than a backpack.
I said yes, in some awe to the cop in front of me.
Because there were so many opportunities in the world over there to act with military personnel, it could happen in front of someone who emits an atmosphere similar to nature.
Correct your posture and stare straight into the cop's eyes.
"You cut and killed that giant creature by some means. Are you sure?"
"You're right."
"Do you know who that creature is?"
"... no certainty, but mostly"
"Hmm."
The cop puts his hand on his chin and looks like he thinks.
"I'd like to ask you a few questions, would you prefer time"
"... I'm off today. Why are we hanging out?"
Gyuru, my stomach rings. No matter how powerful the bravest, they are no match for hunger.
"By the way, I'm not even at noon yet. Can we eat first?"
"Oh. This is rude"
The elderly policeman turned around and said, "Give Mr. Neutral something to plug in!," he raised his voice.
Then the young policeman, who was nearest and waiting, ran out in a great panic.
Apparently, he's going to head out for a buyout. I have a police car in the direction of progress, so will I get in on that one?
"Buy me something one rank higher than what you ate today! Nice!"
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
For me, a police officer who buys me dinner.
It's kind of a crazy response.
I guess they're taking me to the station hungry and trying to pull all the information I know, because I was about there.
"... okay, this kind of thing"
"Because I am a credit to the monster bird exorcism. Don't hesitate to take it."
"Merit?... me? What, a weird bird?
Older cops stare silently at me confused.
"From a certain laboratory, a strange bird escaped. It was an individual revived by genetically modified experiments the characteristics of his ancestors, dinosaurs. You used the piano wire to cut off the bird and exorcise the hero. … is supposed to be reported this way starting tomorrow"
"To be reported, are (...)?"
"Those reporters who surrounded you are not free to write articles."
Our country surprisingly has strong public authority, cops say.
"When it comes to matters involving the survival of a country, there are times when control of information takes precedence over freedom of the press. Now is the time."
"... is that what it is"
"I'll let you write whatever you want if it's normal. Even if it's a police organization scandal. It's the first time in years that we've laid down press regulations."
The policeman speaks without blinking one.
"He said he was attacked by a mysterious giant creature, but neither the police nor the militia responsible for defence were enemies of what should be his role in protecting the safety of citizens. But you, the self-proclaimed magician who came from somewhere, broke it easily with an invisible blade. You might say it's a big case of rocking the country."
"... I'm sorry I took your job."
"In the meantime, the green-skinned Phantom who caused the kidnapping - whatever the media calls it the Goblin case - was also murdered with a sharp blade, wasn't it? And the incision was burned with high heat. Like this weird bird."
I was sure.
This cop says he sees a whole series of cases connected to me.
"I'm very curious about who Mr. Neutral is."
I wonder what will happen now.
Do they even think I called in goblins and dragons?
Or will we be compelled to provide the technology that defeated both the chemicals?
After a while, are you waiting for a trick that will make you talk?
In some cases it may be necessary to fight the country against them.
Consolidating my grievous determination, I bump my gaze against the cops.
"Hi. I've seen real hell. You look familiar. I'm getting more and more curious about what Mr. Neutral has been going through"
"Can you tell just by looking me in the eye?
"We are the last line to protect Japan's security. I didn't come to Dade to teach him a lesson."
"I didn't think the officer's professionalism was that high"
"I'm not technically an officer."
Say, the elderly cop took a tired notebook out of his nostalgia.
It looks like a police notebook, but a little different?
The letters written there......
"Public safety investigator......?
"I'm late, but my name is Chief Investigator Cedar Valley."
"Please don't say anything else," Sugiya chuckled distorting one cheek.
Maybe I ran that young cop out to buy it out for a paycheck.
"I don't know the difference between a public safety investigator and a regular police officer."
"It's public security to protect the security from grey zone areas, like the police can't. They call me an analyst or a case officer, but clearly, you're a spy."
"... are you also spying on Japan?"
"Because the main infiltrators are extremist organizations in the country - gangs and far-right, far-left and religious groups. The image may be slightly different from that of a spy who appears in a Hollywood movie. But in reality we exist. and preventing all sorts of organized crime."
It seemed to me to say implicitly that it is because of us that security in our country is good.
"So you're not a police officer?
"No, I'm not. Because it belongs to the Public Security Investigation Agency, not the police department. I don't even have the right to arrest you."
"... then why are you wearing the officer's uniform?
"To tell the truth, you're infiltrating the police right now, and this is it. So now I'm a bug in a lion. If the cops around you crack their identities, they'll look nasty."
Let me be very clear.
Is that okay, Rose?
"Thank you. Some cops are adhering to gangs, threatening civil life."
"... well, some people like that"
You know, the cops in my city, especially. Looks like you have a relationship with Kundo.
"Trying to work sexual violence on a craving high school girl, trying to buy a girl's ID from a foreign country, harassing her in the parking lot of a sinless restaurant. That's gang members who can do whatever they want anymore, and police officers are tamed. You can't just leave it like this."
"So, right? I really do too. I can't forgive him for that."
"So this is how we borrowed the cops and needed to monitor them from the inside."
As far as I'm concerned, it's a conversation that I don't feel comfortable living in.
"I sneak into the organization and change it from the inside. There is no more effective method. in any workmanship."
"I guess."
I had in mind a way to return the prisoner who possessed the spirit to the enemy castle for destruction.
It's a method that has had a lot of success in different worlds.
"If there were any foreign enemies in the middle of a country or company, there wouldn't be a single one. Don't you think so?"
"If a foreign spy is in trouble, it must be troublesome."
"It would still be nice if you were human from another country. Being a creature that comes from another world and moves with completely different ethics, it's out of hand anymore. Not to mention that, like that monster, it possesses combat abilities beyond people's knowledge."
"... that's..."
"As far as we can grasp, the out-of-the-world monsters from the 'other world' are still lurking in renting people's appearances. And Mr. Neutral, you've visited other worlds too. Right?"
Its power, why not help the country, Cedar Valley said.
