After letting out two dry laughs, Yoko Okino could no longer hold back her sadness.
"I'm sorry, I still have work to do at the TV station, so I'll head back now."
After barely managing to finish those words, she hurriedly ran out of the ward.
Uh, it seems like she misunderstood something?
Matsuda then began to understand.
"Meow!"
Seeing that Matsuda was the only one in the ward,
In her haste, Hoshino Terumi forgot all about being shy and called out anxiously in a low voice while pointing to the door, signaling Matsuda to hurry up and go out to explain.
Chapter 209 Bringing the Beauty Home
"Don't worry, I'll explain everything clearly."
Matsuda understood what Hoshino Terumi meant.
After leaving a message, he hurriedly ran out of the ward.
He originally intended to catch up with Yoko Okino and explain everything.
No sooner had I stepped out of the ward than I was stopped by a short, stout figure.
"Matsuda Jinpei, I never expected you to be this kind of person!"
"I was blind to entrust Yoko to you!"
Dry……
You fatso, you really know how to pick your time, showing up to cause trouble at this hour!
Matsuda cursed inwardly.
Blocking his way was none other than Yoko Okino's guardian spirit, Meiichi Tengxiang.
This usually timid fellow now stood angrily in front of Matsuda.
"Matsuda Jinpei, you promised me you would take good care of Yoko, but now you've gone and hurt Yoko's best friend!"
Teng Xiangming shouted angrily.
Do you know how heartbroken Yoko was?
As he spoke, he angrily charged at Matsuda.
"roll!"
Matsuda raised his leg and kicked the fat man hard, sending him sprawling to the ground.
I looked up and around, but Yoko was nowhere to be seen.
Matsuda had no choice but to kick Teng Xiangming, who was lying on the ground, and whispered, "Come with me."
Teng Xiangming is a guardian spirit. Ordinary people cannot notice his movements, but they can see Matsuda.
It was clearly inappropriate to talk to him in the busy corridors of the hospital.
Matsuda walked straight to the stairwell, and although Teng Xiangming was still full of anger, his fear of Matsuda made him follow.
"What's wrong, Yoko? What's making you so angry?" Matsuda asked.
"mix……"
Before Teng Xiangming could utter his angry curses, he was intimidated by Matsuda's gaze and swallowed his anger.
“Yoko ran out of the ward with red eyes, muttering, ‘Why is Terumi with Officer Matsuda?’” Teng Xiangming stammered.
“She really did misunderstand,” Matsuda sighed.
"Misunderstand?"
Teng Xiangming was taken aback and hurriedly asked what had happened.
Because of several paranormal events, and Matsuda's reminder,
Yoko Okino now carries a sachet containing protective salt with her wherever she goes.
Although Teng Xiangming is her guardian spirit,
We can only protect her from a distance of about ten meters.
So he only saw Yoko Okino enter the ward a short while ago before she ran out with red eyes.
They had no idea what had happened in the ward.
"It's all your fault!"
Matsuda glared at Teng Xiangming. Although it was Koizumi Akako who had been meddling, if it weren't for Teng Xiangming causing her to misunderstand,
Koizumi Akako wouldn't even consider helping Okino Yoko exorcise a spirit.
Matsuda briefly recounted Hoshino Terumi's story.
Teng Xiangming was immediately embarrassed.
"I'm sorry, Officer Matsuda, I didn't expect things to turn out this way..."
"Alright, hurry back to Yoko's side," Matsuda said helplessly. "I'll explain everything to Yoko later. You keep an eye on her and make sure she doesn't do anything foolish."
"Don't worry, Officer Matsuda, I will definitely keep an eye on Yoko!"
After making a loud promise, Teng Xiangming walked straight through the wall and disappeared.
As a guardian spirit, he can accurately return to Yoko's side no matter how far she goes.
Matsuda wasn't worried that this guy wasn't putting in the effort, after all, he was already a guardian spirit, Teng Xiangming.
His deepest desire was to entrust Yoko Okino to someone else so that Yoko could find happiness.
Back in the ward, Matsuda shrugged regretfully.
"I'm sorry, Yoko ran off somewhere, I couldn't catch up with her."
Hoshino Terumi bit her lip, remained silent for a while, and then suddenly raised her hand and wrote a few lines in her notebook.
"Forget it, I'll find a chance to explain to her in person."
Let this guy explain; if he makes things worse, that would be a real problem.
These are Hoshino Terumi's unwritten thoughts.
During the seven days she spent with Matsuda as a cat, she came to understand Matsuda's personality.
He is clearly a very shrewd person when it comes to handling cases at work.
In daily life, however, he completely changes; he becomes incredibly lazy and often makes all sorts of silly mistakes.
……
Hoshino Terumi used the excuse that she still had work to get the hospital to process her discharge.
Although the hospital found it strange, they had no choice but to comply with the patient's request.
Fortunately, aside from being unable to speak, Hoshino Terumi is only somewhat weak due to being in a coma for seven days.
Even if you don't stay in the hospital, you can gradually recover at home.
After completing the discharge procedures and waiting for Hoshino Terumi to change out of her hospital gown, Matsuda put a hat on her head, the wide brim of which just covered her face.
The hospital staff assumed that Hoshino Terumi was involved in some case, which was why she had contact with Matsuda. Out of respect for Matsuda, they didn't ask any further questions.
But to others outside the hospital, Hoshino Terumi is, after all, a television star. Although she's not as famous as Okino Yoko, if someone who knows her were to take a picture of her, it would be difficult to explain later.
……
After secretly bringing Hoshino Terumi home, Matsuda soon discovered another serious problem.
That is, how does Hoshino Terumi manage her daily necessities and clothing?
Because we don't know when Hoshino Terumi will be able to recover.
Matsuda had no choice but to have her write down everything she needed.
Then he went to Hoshino Terumi's apartment to pick it up himself.
Many of the items they were asked to take were extremely private.
Hoshino Terumi was initially too embarrassed to go with Matsuda herself.
However, she had been in a coma in her hospital bed for seven days.
Although she was kept alive with various nutrient solutions and there were no major problems, weakness was ultimately unavoidable.
Coupled with the mental anguish of being unable to speak, the double pressure naturally took its toll on her body.
After arriving at the Matsuda residence, Hoshino Terumi lay on the bed in the guest room, unable to sit up.
"Don't worry, I'm a detective. I've seen everything when I've searched crime scenes before," Matsuda reassured him.
How can these two be the same...?
Hoshino Terumi mentally muttered a helpless complaint.
However, due to her physical condition, she could only let Matsuda leave alone.
……
As a fairly popular celebrity, Hoshino Terumi's apartment is much better than Matsuda's.
Matsuda, carrying the key, went inside and quickly began searching for the items according to the list given to him by Hoshino Terumi.
Clothes are fine, but even intimate items like underwear are something Matsuda is quite knowledgeable about.
They quickly packed about ten sets. But when they got to the list, Matsuda was dumbfounded when he saw the cosmetics that took up half the space.
For him, a rough and uncultured man who at most uses facial cleanser to wash his face, BB cream, CC cream, and sunscreen were completely foreign and unfamiliar things.
Chapter 210 Hands Up! Robbery!
"No wonder she's a celebrity, she even owns more than a dozen lipsticks."
