"it is good!"
Ryosuke Nara readily agreed, as if he had been waiting for this answer.
In his view, even if Kiyoshi Kaneda left the Metropolitan Police Department, the sun would still rise, and the "fox" case could still be solved.
He then swept his authoritative gaze over the silent task force members below and announced, "All non-professional team members, return to your original posts."
For the upcoming case investigation, I will be assigning entirely elite members from the professional team to oversee the work!
In his mind, as long as enough elites are gathered, all problems will be solved.
Kiyoshi Kaneda turned and left the Metropolitan Police Department building.
He stood at the doorway and looked up at the azure Tokyo sky in the early morning.
The morning breeze brushed against his face, numb from staying up all night, and a deep sense of fatigue swept over him.
Has the government confirmed the identity of "Fox"? Is there solid evidence, or is it a lie?
He glanced down at the report in his hand, pondered for a moment, and made a decision.
He decided to continue his investigation in his own way.
He plans to register a Douyin account, believing that his identity as the "former deputy leader of the Fox Hunting Task Force" will attract a lot of attention and traffic.
By becoming a social media influencer with a certain level of influence and spreading their inferences and analyses of the case, they might attract the attention of certain government officials or tycoons, thereby gaining the opportunity to re-engage in the investigation.
His choice of the overseas version of TikTok, rather than YouTube, was purely based on his political stance.
YouTube may be under pressure to ban his account.
The overseas version of TikTok has relatively relaxed restrictions on speech control. As long as the content does not violate the laws and regulations of the place where it is operated, it is basically unrestricted.
As soon as he opened the Douyin app, the first short video pushed to him was a trending topic with over 70,000 likes and more than 2,000 comments, with an exceptionally eye-catching title.
The true identity of the fox revealed!
……
"Super Soldier Project?"
Yuki Maeda's face showed obvious confusion.
Although the "fox" incident caused a huge uproar online last night, she wouldn't even bother going online to read those news articles.
Her schedule was packed; she had to focus on her studies, brainstorm plots for her light novels, and when she occasionally used her phone, she would "circumvent the Great Firewall" to access websites in China and secretly watch online courses taught by excellent teachers.
She is grateful to and follows all the teachers who are willing to share their knowledge online for free.
As for news about current affairs, politics, entertainment gossip, etc., Maeda Yuki almost completely avoids them and doesn't read any of them.
But since she doesn't actively seek information, there are naturally channels through which this information reaches her ears.
Seeing her bewildered expression, Matsuo Yumeko became very talkative.
For someone who is keen on spreading all kinds of gossip, Yuki Maeda's almost completely isolated "information island" personality makes her the perfect audience.
"Yes! This is a secret research project conducted by the U.S. Second Laboratory to enhance the combat capabilities of individual soldiers in the United States!"
With great enthusiasm, Matsuo Yumeko began her "authoritative" announcement: "Haven't there been similar news stories in the past?"
For example, during an earthquake, a father used his body to hold up a collapsing wall, protecting his child for dozens of hours.
Or perhaps a son, in order to save his elderly mother, climbed seven floors with his bare hands and carried her safely down.
Science shows that these are all the result of a sudden surge of adrenaline.
She paused, then continued mysteriously, "And the second laboratory is dedicated to researching how to modify and stimulate adrenaline. They created a magical drug called 'X2'."
After being injected with this drug, a person's physical functions will be greatly enhanced, turning them into a super soldier.
However, the downside is that its lifespan becomes very short.
"The fox is the most perfect experimental subject created in this laboratory."
It was even more perfect than they expected.
Other test subjects only live for a few hours, but according to lab insiders, foxes can live for one or two years!
"Was the fox actually a cyborg?"
Yuki Maeda seemed quite surprised.
"He's practically a villain straight out of a movie!"
As Matsuo Yumeko spoke, she became more and more excited, "He successfully escaped as an experimental subject, and destroyed a lot of important experimental data in the laboratory before running away."
If he hadn't caused such a commotion in Ikebukuro last night, the lab staff wouldn't have known he'd actually gone to Tokyo!
"Even so..."
Yuki Maeda rationally asked, "How did he manage to escape from the Metropolitan Police Department's tight security perimeter?"
This question made Yumeko Matsuo immediately lower her voice and her expression become even more mysterious, as if she were sharing some top-secret information: "Well, the official statement doesn't specify anything."
However, online sources suggest that external forces may be assisting him in his escape.
For example, Xia Kingdom, or Russia... oh, and some people even say it might be South Korea.
They were the ones who helped the fox escape.
Why would they do that?
"Of course, it's to undermine Tokyo's title as the world's safest city. Since last night, some wealthy people have been secretly leaving Tokyo."
“But…” Maeda Yuuki’s mind remained clear, “Why don’t those countries capture these precious cyborgs and study them themselves?”
"Well..."
Matsuo Yumeko was speechless for a moment, but quickly found a seemingly reasonable explanation: "It must be that the fox itself was unwilling."
He's so powerful, who could force him?
This answer did not completely resolve Maeda Yuki's doubts.
From the perspective of national interests, even if the "fox" himself is unwilling, there must be various ways to control and take him away, right?
How could they easily let go of such a valuable "research sample" and allow him to continue his activities in Tokyo?
Yuki Maeda always felt that the government might selectively conceal some key information.
Or perhaps the government itself didn't have a complete grasp of the situation.
The truth may be far more complex than Matsuo Yumeko described.
However, Maeda Yuki did not voice these questions that lingered in her mind.
Because she knew that Matsuo Yumeko in front of her could not provide an answer.
She simply gave a soft "oh" and continued to play the role of a loyal listener.
Just then, the bell for morning self-study rang crisply, instantly dispelling the noise in the classroom and interrupting Matsuo Yumeko's still-unfinished "news broadcast".
Let everything in the classroom fall silent.
Chapter 121 Qingze Hongwen
The lunch break bell, like a sacred hymn of salvation, finally rang.
Qingze took a deep breath almost reflexively, as if to replace all the stale air that had accumulated in his chest for an entire class period, and then strode out of the classroom door of Class 1D.
If someone were to ask him at this moment whether, as a young male teacher teaching at a girls' high school, he would develop feelings for the girls,
Then he would definitely answer without hesitation: Yes.
He genuinely wanted to crack open some students' heads to see if they contained brains or just a lump of mush!
Especially Satomi Tanaka.
Just thinking about her "brilliant" performance in class made Qingze feel as if his body, which had been strengthened many times, was showing signs of high blood pressure.
She came to me pitifully, pleading, "Teacher! I really want to improve my math grades! I want to work hard!"
As a result, Qingze racked his brains and tailored ten math problems within her capabilities for her.
She actually fell below her own limit again, getting nine questions wrong!
I only guessed one question correctly!
What really sent blood pressure soaring was that she actually asked him with a proud look on her face, as if she wanted praise: "Teacher, teacher, did I get everything right?"
She had no idea that the fist Qingze quietly clenched under the podium at that moment didn't represent speechlessness, but rather a "powerful punch"!
"Ugh……"
Qingze roared silently in his heart, his whole being enveloped in a visible low pressure, and he walked heavily toward the cafeteria.
Most of the experienced teachers who witnessed his appearance along the way exchanged knowing glances with each other.
It seems that this new young colleague has finally come to personally experience the harsh reality that "the lower limit of students' cognition always exceeds the imagination of teachers."
Only by truly understanding and accepting this can one be considered to have embarked on the path from an idealistic novice teacher to a mature teacher who recognizes reality and gradually adopts a more "Buddhist" attitude.
When Qingze arrived at the cafeteria, his eyes swept across the room and immediately locked onto the blue label floating above a plate of golden crispy pork.
[Thorne's Poison].
He seemed to exhale a long breath as if to expel all his frustration, then picked up his plate and walked straight to the food serving window.
His main goal was very clear: to put the crispy pork with the label on his plate.
As for the other dishes, he just casually added a few.
Then, he found a quiet spot in a corner and sat down.
As usual, he propped up his math textbook on the table to create a simple cover.
Then, with a seemingly casual flick of his hand, the small piece of crispy pork with the cyan label disappeared silently and was stored in storage space number three.
The label "[Thor's Poison]" alone suggests that it's not meant for personal consumption; it's most likely some kind of highly toxic substance.
I just don't know what specific effects it will have if I eat it.
Qingze doesn't plan to try it for the time being.
He believes that these items with blue tags should be kept, since they are things that can affect others and may have unexpected and wonderful effects at certain crucial moments.
