Police Headquarters, meeting room.
The long and tedious "Kanagawa Prefecture Gunfight Special Investigation Headquarters Establishment Meeting" finally ended. Kuniaki Renping stood up, bowed, and said, "I hope everyone can overcome all difficulties and solve this case as soon as possible. Thank you!"
"Yes, sir!" Everyone got up and responded in unison.
Kuniaki Renping raised his head, "Dismiss—"
"Ding-a-ling! Ding-a-ling!"
A ringtone interrupted his voice.
Everyone's gaze followed the sound and looked toward Ayumi Asai.
"Sorry," Ayumi Asai instinctively went to hang up the phone.
Seeing this, Kuniaki Renping smiled and said with a pleasant demeanor, "Answer it, it might be something important. Besides, the meeting has just ended."
"Yes, sir!" Ayumi Asai responded and then answered the phone, "Moshi moshi, this is Ayumi Asai."
"Are you still in the meeting?" Aoyama Xiu Xin asked.
Ayumi Asai replied softly with a "Mhm."
