Chapter 6 Xiao Ai: Is he a good person?
"You are a little kid living alone in an orphanage, being bullied by the older kids all day long, and you have no food or clothes to eat and can only cry in your bed at night when no one is around. Do you really want to live like this?"
Tanigawa squatted down and looked into Miyano Shiho's eyes with a smile.
"It's not as miserable as you say." Miyano Shiho retorted in a low voice.
Besides, that was much better than spending my childhood in the organization.
"Be good and stay here honestly."
"But we have no relatives or friends, so why should I live here with you?" Miyano Shiho said with a pout.
"It is said that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. I am a neighbor of the Kudo family, and you are a relative of the Kudo family. Of course, we are related."
"But……"
"Ding dong~"
"Wait a moment, I'll go see who's here." Tanigawa touched Miyano Shiho's head and stopped her from speaking.
"Mr. Tanigawa, your award certificate has been delivered to you."
"Oh my, you're so polite. I told you not to send it, but you insisted on sending it to me." Tanigawa welcomed the middle-aged policeman in with enthusiasm.
"Although Mr. Tanigawa is not interested in fame and fortune, the police cannot but reward good citizens like you." The middle-aged policeman smiled awkwardly.
It was you who insisted on it, so when did it become like we had to give it to you?
"Who is this?" The middle-aged policeman looked at Miyano Shiho.
"This is my sister." Tanigawa introduced with a smile.
Miyano Shiho stayed obediently behind Tanigawa, but she was still a little nervous when facing the police.
"I see." The middle-aged policeman nodded.
The pajamas on this little girl are obviously not the size of children's clothes. Besides, doesn't the Tanigawa family have only one son? Where did Mr. Tanigawa get his sister?
The middle-aged policeman didn't dare to ask and could only smile along.
"Are you the only one here?" Tanigawa asked.
"Ah?" The middle-aged policeman didn't understand what Tanigawa meant.
It’s just a certificate of award, how many people would come?
Could it be that Mr. Tanigawa wanted Yumi Miyamoto to come? I heard that these sons of powerful families like to trample on the dignity of others. Could it be that Mr. Tanigawa is also like this?
"I heard that when the Metropolitan Police Department gives out awards, there are always reporters interviewing," Tanigawa reminded.
"Oh, yes, that's right." The middle-aged policeman was a little nervous.
Isn't it too much to find reporters to publicize this matter? It will definitely arouse public emotions.
"Mr. Tanigawa, actually there was a reporter coming. However, there was a car accident on the way, and the reporter was sent to the hospital." The middle-aged policeman explained.
"That's a shame."
"Yes, yes." The middle-aged policeman nodded repeatedly.
At the Tanigawa family's house, the middle-aged policeman was on pins and needles.
"Since the certificate has been delivered, Mr. Tanigawa, I will take my leave." The middle-aged policeman stood up and said.
"Why don't you sit for a while?" Tanigawa said.
"No, no, no." The middle-aged policeman refused.
I've been sitting here for a long time and I'm not even allowed to drink water. If I don't leave, I'll be kicked out.
The middle-aged policeman walked out of the room and looked at the Porsche 356A in the yard. The car mysteriously disappeared from the police station last night and appeared at the home of Mr. Tanigawa this morning.
It turns out that Mr. Tanigawa also has an identical one.
After bidding farewell to the policeman who did not want to reveal his name, Tanigawa waved the award certificate in front of Miyano Shiho.
"Look, this is the award certificate given to me by the Metropolitan Police Department. It has their seal on it. They told me I'm a good person, but you still don't believe it."
Miyano Shiho laughed.
He is so old, why does he still like to show off like a child? However, he was awarded a certificate by the Metropolitan Police Department. This guy who seemed unreliable turned out to be a good person.
But, the dark self is not worthy of embracing the sun.
"Why are you so depressed again?" Looking at Miyano Shiho who was depressed again, Tanigawa patted her shoulder.
"At such a young age, he always has a sullen face. He looks more mature than me."
After hearing what Tanigawa said, Miyano Shiho felt helpless.
"Is it possible that you are too naive?"
"You're so brave, you dare to talk back." Tanigawa pretended to be furious and tickled Miyano Shiho.
"What are you doing~ That's annoying!"
Miyano Shiho dodged left and right, but still couldn't stop laughing because of Tanigawa's tickling.
You are a child, and you like to tickle others. And we have only known each other for a short time, and you are making such a joke. Humph! You are really a person without a sense of boundaries.
"Children should smile more."
"Hmph~ I'm not a kid." Miyano Shiho collapsed on the sofa tiredly and buried her face in it to prevent Tanigawa from seeing her smiling face.
"Okay, I bought you some clothes, see if you like them."
Tanigawa put his hands on Miyano Shiho's armpits and picked her up from the sofa.
"Ah~ let me go!"
Miyano Shiho jumped around in Tanigawa's hands like a fish, full of energy.
"It's loosened. Pick one you like and wear it."
Tanigawa put a big bag on the sofa, and Miyano Shiho picked up the bag with a blushing face.
It is really uncomfortable to wear such big pajamas all the time. Although this man is unreliable, he has a kind heart.
Being with a kind person, Miyano Shiho felt very pressured.
Miyano Shiho opened the bag and looked at the dazzling array of clothes inside. Her face became increasingly gloomy. When she saw the last piece, her eyes were almost spitting fire.
"Are these the clothes you bought for me?" Miyano Shiho said to the innocent Tanigawa.
"Yeah, which one do you like?" Tanigawa said.
These clothes cost me a lot of money, they are very expensive, and you look unhappy.
"How can you let a child wear white silk?" Miyano Shiho threw a piece of white silk at Tanigawa's face.
This damn coppersmith picked her up last night for some ulterior motive. You finally stop pretending now, right? You bought these clothes to satisfy your perverted hobby.
I thought you were a good person.
"I've seen a lot of little girls in comics like to wear white stockings, haven't they?" Tanigawa pretended to be innocent and ignorant.
He was afraid that Miyano Shiho would react strongly, so he deliberately did not buy black stockings.
"How can comics and reality be the same?" Miyano Shiho said angrily.
This stinky man can really stir up her emotions easily.
"Aren't there a lot of normal clothes here?" Tanigawa said, pointing at the 'maid outfit', 'cat ear outfit' and 'sailor uniform' on the sofa.
"This is not normal at all!"
In the end, Miyano Shiho picked out a piece of clothing that looked more normal to change into, and hid all the clothes in the closet, fearing that Tanigawa would use them to do something strange.
"Humph~"
