Chapter 249

Stunned, he sat on the bedding, only recovering from the daze of just waking up after a long while.

"... Bedding?"

Satou Miwako's head felt a bit fuzzy.

However, the figure of a person soon appeared in her mind.

Was it him?

In the entire hot spring inn, besides the bodyguards, there seemed to be only one boy capable of carrying her.

She, who exercised often, had self-awareness.

Her weight was much heavier than that of female peers of the same age.

As expected, my feeling was not wrong.

He just gave me the feeling of an elder.

Hmm, his approach was a bit like Dad's.

Satou Miwako pressed her lips together, feeling as though she had somehow been taken advantage of.

But this feeling of being taken care of was actually quite nice.

Shaking her head, she immediately sat up from the bedding.

Now she needed to contact Chief Megure; now she needed to report the intelligence from this side.

She immediately took out her phone and dialed.

"Good morning, Chief Megure."

"There were no problems inside the hot spring inn; there was no drug dealer raid last night."

Upon receiving the news, Megure Jūzō also relaxed.

It was Wan Xing that the Young Ladies were unharmed.

The drug dealer has already been controlled, and the Young Ladies are fine; this business trip to Tsukishima Island was successfully completed.

Next is the issue of controlling the remaining drug dealers.

"Officer Satou, you did very well."

"Yes!"

Satou Miwako's mood was also good at this moment.

"Then, Chief Megure, have those drug dealers all been caught?"

"The boss of the drug dealers at the Community Center has already been arrested."

"Most of the bosses have already confessed the drug dealer members they should have confessed; blood tests for civilians are now beginning."

"Preparing to screen for other hidden drug dealers."

Satou Miwako understood that the drug dealers at the Community Center could not escape.

"What about the back mountain?"

"The back mountain... the drug dealers there have all been shot dead."

"The remaining work is being handled by us, the detectives."

Satou Miwako was slightly stunned; she understood in her heart that Chief Megure had concealed part of the matter.

She did not continue to pursue it.

Chief Megure's concealment of her was certainly not intentional, but rather something she should not know.

"Officer Satou, your guard duty should not end until after they return."

"The matters over there will trouble you."

"Yes!"

After ending the call, Satou Miwako lay down again.

"It looks like Chief Megure has been busy all night."

"The back mountain... what exactly happened that made Chief Megure hide it from me?"

Chief Megure's deliberate concealment meant he did not want her to know.

The back mountain was also the drug dealers' base; obviously, something not very good happened at the back mountain.

"It seems to be a serious situation, unsuitable for me to know."

She composed herself.

Satou Miwako did not dwell on it anymore.

Some matters indeed cannot be dwelt on excessively; even if one wants to know, the specific situation needs to be learned from Chief Megure.

"Waking up?"

Just as Satou Miwako relaxed, a familiar voice arrived along with footsteps.

Looking over, the corners of Satou Miwako's eyes curved slightly.

She propped herself up with both hands and sat up.

"Thank you for yesterday's matter."

"Not yesterday, but this morning."

Ren Amamiya corrected the factual situation, then sat down beside Satou Miwako.

"We are going back today."

"Tomorrow is Monday, the day of classes."

"However, your weekend holiday should have been quite uncomfortable."

"Encountering such a thing as drug dealers, the time that could have been relaxed was wasted."

Ren Amamiya also admitted this point.

This weekend indeed offered no proper relaxation, given the encounters with drug traffickers and evil spirits and the like.

However, this weekend was not without value.

In fact, during this trip to Moon Shadow Island, he gained quite a few benefits.

"Officer Sato, for a while to come, the work at the Metropolitan Police Department should not be too easy."

"Those drug traffickers used Moon Shadow Island as a springboard to radiate into the area near Tokyo."

"For the time being, the drug traffickers near Tokyo will likely be dragged out one by one."

"And these tasks should be the long-term work for the Metropolitan Police Department for a long time ahead."

"Right..."

Miwako Sato felt the same way.

Looking at the boy before her, she thought of Inspector Megure's concealment just now, and subconsciously wanted to ask.

"Do you know about the matter at the back mountain?"
