The other side of the perfect world

#05 Survey

Late at night is a breeding ground for evil.Especially in clubs in the old part of Shinjuku where PSYCHO-PASS scanners don't work.

The blinding neon lights gave Sly a headache, while Makishima, who was sitting next to him, was drinking whiskey on the rocks in a leisurely manner.

"Even if you bite off your collar, you're still a hunting dog that doesn't know how to enjoy itself."

The ice cubes floating in the whiskey bumped lightly, Makishima narrowed his eyes and glanced at the man with a serious face beside him.The man had the same serious expression as before, and Makishima didn't know whether the stiff facial lines were a reflection of the man's heart.

The corner of the mouth curled up cunningly, and his eyes were fixed on the men and women writhing wildly on the dance floor.

"What the hunting dog needs is the prey, and the real enjoyment is only when catching the prey!"

"That is nice……"

Makishima took a big gulp of whiskey and put it in his mouth, raised his hand to pinch Sly's chin and turned to himself.

"Well!"

Makishima's face was magnified in front of his eyes, and when Kouya realized that he was kissed, his brain had an instant short circuit.

The cold and spicy whiskey flowed into the mouth, wrapping the soft tongue.This is a different kind of stimulation, which makes his heart beat faster like meat touches meat.

Makishima's lips quickly withdrew, it was more like feeding him a sip of wine than a kiss.

"Your whole body is too stiff, you are telling others 'I am a policeman'. Even if you want to find prey, you can't scare the snake..."

The crescent-shaped pupils seemed to be inlaid with amber, Makishima reached out and touched his moist lips, this action left a sexy shadow in the cunning eyes.

"Don't be nervous, it's gay anyway, we're just doing what's appropriate."

He was noncommittal to Makishima's words, turned his head away from the sight that made him flustered, and licked his upper lip.

The kiss just now, if counted as a kiss, didn't feel bad.

In this club full of same-sex hormones, Cunning will not deny that he has been affected unconsciously.Normally, he wouldn't care so much about Makishima around him...

Thinking of this, he suddenly shook his head, and smiled self-deprecatingly in his heart—no, in normal times, he still cared about Makishima very much.

The reason why he and Makishima came to this gay bar named FX is because the three victims—Akira Nojima, Tetsu Ito, and Seijuro Sano used to be regular customers here, in other words, all three were men. gay.

"How? You want to find the murderer in this gay bar with hundreds of people?"

"Don't underestimate me... the hound's nose is very good."

As Qiao Nian said, his sharp eyes were like searchlights, clearly illuminating everyone's faces on the dim dance floor.

"Is there a target found?"

Makishima leaned forward and approached Kouya, this was the first time he was observing Kouya's handling of incidents up close, and he couldn't help showing a strange look of excitement on his face.

"Not yet... none of the guys on the dance floor..."

Cunningly replied while looking into the distance.The dark crowd squeezed on the dance floor and twisted their bodies crazily, like colorful molluscs under the illumination of various neon lights.

"Looking at the common features of the corpses, I guess the murderer hates homosexuality very much."

"Hate?"

Following the cunning line of sight, Makishima scanned the dance floor and then cast his gaze behind a huge column. After finding a man with a guilty conscience hiding there, his golden pupils narrowed and his lips curved There was a faint smile.

"Come on gay if you hate it, is the murderer a masochist?"

"It's disgusting!"

Kou gave Makishima a very positive answer.In his opinion, the murderer must be tortured by conflicting emotions. He is obviously gay but has extreme aggressiveness towards masculinity. If such a person is left alone, the consequences may be disastrous.

"The prisoner must hate homosexuality very much... At the same time, he can't help being bewitched..."

As he spoke, he turned his head and glanced at Makishima.This inadvertent glance made him stunned for a moment.

Why did he go to see Makishima?It's almost like saying that Makishima is the person he hates and can't help being bewitched.

"Ah……"

Makishima smiled when he saw the knife-like marks on the eyebrows of the cunning sword.It's not hard to guess what Sly is thinking, but he won't expose him, enjoying the mystery is one of his pleasures.

"People who love and hate homosexuals? If they have such contradictory thoughts, the crime coefficient will definitely increase... How about it, do you regret it? Losing the Dominator is very bad for finding the murderer, isn't it?"

"Hmph! Even without the Dominator, I can probably guess what kind of person the murderer is..."

His moving eyes stopped on a column that could not be illuminated by neon lights, and he saw a looming figure hiding behind the black column, like a nocturnal animal afraid of light, hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity.Cunningly's eyes lit up, and he stood up cautiously and quickly.

"It's that person..."

"Oh?"

Makishima glanced at it casually, and found that the target of the cunning was the man he saw before, and the smile on his face grew stronger.

Sure enough, cunning is great!

His keen intuition and insight attracted him deeply before they met each other. Izumi Gongji Toyohisa once told him that he would unconsciously show a look of enjoyment when mentioning cunning Shinya. I think he should have the same expression now!

Following behind Qiao Yao, he walked towards the pillar, and he asked, "Without Dominator, how are you going to be sure that guy is the murderer?"

"Sure?"

Sly Gnaw opened his mouth to reveal the canine teeth that could tear apart prey, and that confident smile dazzled Makishima's eyes like the midday sun.

"I just need to pin this guy down and call the police."

"Are you so confident that you won't catch the wrong person?"

Kouchi looked back at Makishima, raised his thumb and pointed at himself.

"Have you ever seen a beast whose prey is mistaken?!"

Beast...?

With a shrug, Makishima acquiesced to the cunning theory.

This man is undoubtedly a beast!Whether it is physical strength or intelligence, he is absolutely qualified and courageous to challenge the laws of survival of nature.

He is indeed the man he fancy.

The cunning and upright back was reflected in the golden pupils, and Makishima suddenly realized that it was the man in front who had been chasing him before, but now the two seemed to have switched positions unconsciously.

Quietly, she came behind the sneaky man and patted the man's shoulder lightly.

"Hey!"

"Ok?"

The man turned his head, and at the same time, Sly raised his fist and hit the man's right eye with a punch, knocking the man unconscious on the spot.

"Without the collar, you are indeed more violent."

Standing with his hands in his pockets and watching with cold eyes, Makishima said leisurely.

"You're wrong! I used to be violent!"

Qiao Nian turned around and took out a cigarette to light it up. While smoking the cigarette, he turned on the mobile terminal, and the black screen that popped up in the air displayed "Calling", and the ID photo next to him was a man who even Makishima was very familiar with.

"I'm Ginoza Nobumoto."

"Yino..."

"Cunning?!"

From the voice coming from the mobile terminal, one can guess how surprised Nobumoto Ginoza was at the other end of the screen.

"Where are you? Cunning."

"Put mine aside in advance, you should come to the FX club at the corner of the old Shinjuku district right now, there are the prisoners you need here."

"Hey, what's going on? Tell me clearly!"

"You'll know when you come here, I'm hanging up."

"cunning……"

Slap!Turning off the mobile terminal, even Makishima couldn't stand Koujima's indifferent attitude towards his former colleagues.

"Will you be too cold-blooded like this? They need you very much!"

Dragging the suspect to the most conspicuous place at the door and handcuffing him, Qiao Yao replied blankly: "Don't get involved with me is the greatest help to them."

It was past midnight when Kou and Makishima returned home.The narrow hut once again ushered in two tall men, and it felt like it was being filled all of a sudden.

"Now that the matter is settled, what are you going to do next?"

Makishima, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, picked up the "Bread for the Human World" that was placed askew on the corner of the table and read it with relish.

"I don't have any special plans, but you, why are you sticking to me?"

Qiao Nian sat on the bed, turned on the laptop and asked questions while browsing the web.

"I thought that if I left, you would come after me instead. In that case, I just won't leave."

"Ha, you know me very well."

Staring intently at the computer screen, Sly said casually.

"It's more correct to say the other way around. It's not that I understand you, but you understand me."

Saying that, Makishima put down the book in his hand and slowly came to the bed and sat beside Kou.

"What are you looking at so deeply?"

Makishima's hair brushed his cheeks, making it a little itchy, followed by a nice fragrance.Kou didn't know if it was Makishima's body odor or the smell of shampoo.Can't help but look down at Makishima approaching him.Makishima's skin is very fair, and his expression is very calm. Such a man who looks harmless to humans and animals has almost shaken the foundation of the entire society. Just thinking about it is incredible.He couldn't help but wonder what kind of sincerity and conspiracy were hidden under this calm mask.

"Do you care about me?"

Staring at the computer screen, Makishima asked casually.

"Yeah, I want to know what's going on in that head of yours."

"Nothing... I just need to look at you, and I won't feel bored looking at you."

"what!"

Sneaky sneered, "Am I your prop to relieve boredom!"

"it's not like that……"

Looking up, Makishima stared at the cunning eyes with those clear golden pupils.Cunningly didn't look away, but met the naked gaze straightly.

The air settled down, and the time was stuck on this frame. After a long while, the two ended the long staring at the same time.

"You are not a prop. The props are just used and thrown away after use. By the way, it is like my razor. And you are the user of the props, just like me."

"Speaking as if you and I are the same kind of people! Are you actually trying to say that we are both lonely?"

While talking, Qiao Nian clicked on SocialIntercourse.

Looking up at the mottled ceiling, Makishima muttered with deep emotion: "Lonely? Yes, I am lonely. From the moment I realized that I have a sin-free constitution."

Hearing Makishima's confession so frankly, Kougi revealed an expression of disbelief.

"What's wrong with you? You're so honest?"

"Even if I lie, I can't deceive you? Why bother to deceive yourself!"

"Then you think that by destroying the Sibyl system, you can stay away from loneliness?"

"Do not……"

Kou only heard Makishima reply with one word, just when he thought the conversation was over, unexpectedly, Makishima reached out and pinched his chin.

Makishima's fingers were cold, but for some reason, Qiao Nian felt as if a fire had been lit in his heart, and it was unbearably hot.

"I think staying by your side will keep me from being alone."

thump!There was a strong beating in the left chest, watched by the pair of charming golden pupils, Qiao Niu felt that the oxygen was abandoning him little by little.The man in front of him is undoubtedly an existence that he should hate, but at the same time as the hatred, there are other emotions mixed in quietly taking root in his heart. It's not that he didn't notice it, but he just pretended not to notice it.He used killing intent to force himself to forget about Makishima, but this clever approach only had the opposite effect.

In his eyes, Maki Island is a well, and if he jumps down, he will only sink deeper and deeper, but he will never be able to climb up again.Unable to take his eyes off Makishima's body, he pulled his lips slightly, and before he could say the first word, Makishima's smiling voice rang in his ears.

"I'm joking, don't you take it seriously?"

The finger on the chin withdrew, and when he realized that he was just being teased, Sniper flew into a rage.

"If you treat me like a fool again, believe it or not, I'll send you to the streets immediately!"

"No, I'm going to sleep here tonight."

Facing the angry Kouto, Makishima just smiled and leaned back, plopped down on the bed, like a wayward child occupying the only bed in the room.

Cunningly sighed and didn't say anything, and continued to focus on the computer.

After a while, Makishima, who was lying on the bed, turned over quietly, and slowly opened his eyes with his back facing Qiaogna.Just then, he heard a whisper of cunning.

"How come... so strange..."

"What's weird?"

The fingers touching the computer screen paused for a moment, Koujima turned his head, and saw that Makishima had turned his face to him, with his head resting on his arms and smiling at him in a very comfortable posture.

"Are you still awake!"

"No, I'm the type who sleeps little."

"Is it because the brain is overactive?"

"Maybe!"

Looking up at Koujima, Makishima suddenly realized that he was chatting with the man who killed him, but he was defenseless, both physically and psychologically.If Qiao Yao suddenly shot him at this time, he would have no chance of escaping from death, but he was sure that Qiao Yao would not do that.

"Don't interrupt, what did you just say is weird?"

The topic went back to the right track, and Makishima knew from the cunning expression that something must have gone wrong.

"I was watching socialintercourse, and the guy named DeadCupid updated the private section tonight, isn't that weird?"

His brows were twisted into twists, and the hands that were placed on the keyboard were gradually clenched.

"Could it be that the executive officer didn't arrest people?"

"Impossible! Gino will not let the criminal go."

Cunning knows the style of the Criminal Division of the Public Security Bureau, and Ginoza better. If the prisoner was not arrested, something unexpected must have happened during this period.

At this moment, the mobile terminal suddenly called out, and he hurriedly connected after seeing that the caller ID was Ginoza.

"Yino!"

"It's cunning, what are you doing now?"

"Don't ask me, what happened to the prisoner?"

"Prisoner? Ah, you mean the person you detained in the club? That person is innocent."

"what?"

Cunningly's eyes widened suddenly, he almost wondered if he had an auditory hallucination.

innocent?How could that person be innocent? !

Makishima on the other side also heard what Ginoza said just now.He sat up with a hand on the sly shoulder, a playful smile on the corner of his mouth.

Unexpectedly, this invulnerable man would sometimes miss, and he was more interested in finding this than in finding Pandora's Box.

Kou could see that Makishima was laughing at him, and his expression became even uglier.

"Yino, are you sure you're not mistaken?"

He couldn't believe his instincts could be wrong!The hound's instinct, which he had always relied on so much, failed, and he even felt betrayed.

Ginoza sighed from the mobile terminal.

"Sly, that person is indeed innocent. I tried it with a Dominator, and the crime coefficient is only 35."
