The Protectors- SaeYaka Part 3-2 2/27/2014

[kuro808]

Long awaited continuation

Part 2-3

With the clues, I needed to find Takayama Saburo and Hayashi Ryoko's daughter.  However, my mind was filled with Itano's interview and Fukushima.  It must have been a alias to save her identity from other people.  I began to wonder why and the connection was with him.

Kasai ran up his rap sheet.  Many were petty but the last one led him into jail for company fraud.  Kasai instantly sent me the abstract of the case.  Twenty years for swindling two hundred million yen from a bank and bribing a government official was the main charges but through some weird circumstance he denied it fully until the end.  I searched for the prison and called Matsubara for the trip.

“Sayaka, are you sure Takayama is worth talking to?”

“Itano brought it up.  We need to follow the clues.”

“What about Masuda?”

“Oshima and her are looking for the daughter.”

We drove up to the gate and let us in through the three layers of security.  I looked up to the building and the guard escorted us into the prison where the long hallway came to greet us.  The metal door opened for the both of us and the final door had our suspect sitting with his glasses resting on his nose with a half-filled glass of water.

“Welcome to the room.”  He said inviting us into the air-conditioned area.

“Takayama-san, we are Akimoto and Matsubara.”  I announced.

“Itano sent you hear to ask about Hayashi.  Correct?”

I nodded giving us grand laugh before adjusting his glasses.  He placed his arm filled with tattoos onto the table grinning at us.

“She was not a bad girl.  She needed help because her father was having her way since she was ten.”  He explained.  “He had hid the fact that she was pregnant and sent her off into the streets.  I found her at a bus stop crying after the news.”

“Were you there when it was born?”  Matsubara asked.

“I hid in the hospital bathroom until she allowed me back in through the staff.”

“My only question is...”  I pondered.

“Kyo-chan had never allowed me to try it on her.  She didn't mind having prostitutes at the house before she had left to move in with a friend.  Poor Yoko...”

“Yoko?  Is that the daughter's name?”  I asked as he nodded firmly.

“Did something happen to her?”

“Unfortunately, we found her body at the bottom of a forested area.”

“How sad...  Yoko must be 10 or 11.”

“Someone had known everything about the situation.  Would you offer a clue?”  Matsubara added.

“I can't help you.  But Yoko might be able to help.  Gomen.”

We thank him before heading back into the city.  Yoko was our next interviewee and Masuda was responsible for her search.  Matsubara dialed up the number for her and Oshima with no response.  We both shook our heads heading to the station.

Lol took me a while to get the story back into motion

Part 2-4

“Kasai speaking... Masuda and Oshima have found the kid and have requested backup.  I repeat, backup at the park's pond.”

I swung the car around and flashed the lights as we drove toward the park.  There was no way we could park and run into the park so I had to hop the curb and drove onto the grass.  With the target in sight, I pulled up and we both ran out as the two had cornered the child with a brown hoodie on.   She was throwing pebbles to the two as Nattsumii flanked to the right.

“Yoko-chan, we are here to help you.”  I called out as a pebble came flying toward me.

“My mother is dead.  The police caused her death.”

“The police didn't cause this...”

“She was supposed to be protected from him.”

I tilted my head as I glanced at her.  “What do you mean?”

Masuda took a chance wrapping her arms around  her waist and carried her to the car.  Oshima and Matsubara drove off the lawn as Masuda tapped my shoulder breathing hard wiping the sweat off her forehead.

“Took you guys a while.”  She commented.

“We just came from an interview.”

“What did you guys get?”

“The fact that Yoko is mentally challenged from birth assuming why it made sense to why she attacked you instead of cooperated with your investigation.”  I explained as she shook her head.

“Can you explain further?”

“Let's jump in your car.”  I suggested as we walked to the parking lot before driving off to the station.

Masuda was unusually quiet as I explained the situation to her, a few nods were only needed to confirm the torture of the victim.  As we drove up, we expected chaos but she sat there with a glass of water in front of her as Matsubara and Oshima had filled out paperwork.

“Gomen.”  She bowed to both of us.

“That's okay...  Can you explain about the police protecting your mother?”  I asked her as she looked down before turning her attention to Tomita sitting in his office and then turning to Oshima.

“She said... that she had something against father and the police was suppose to use it to protect her.”

“TRO?”  Masuda thought out loud.

“Kasai!  Try to find anything dealing with this case.”  I said escorting her over to interrogation room.

“Masuda, do you want to find the guy?”

“You bet I would love to.”  She smiled as Oshima followed her out.

Matsubara and I took our seats in front of her.  She hid her face away from us and under the light we found a few deep bruises on her face.  The girl wasn't physically deformed but personality wise the social abilities were behind the usual peer.  Yoko finally brushed her ruffled black hair back and placed her head on the table.

“I MISS MY MOMMY!!!!”

“Yoko-chan, please accept our sincere apology.  There isn't any one day that I regret any mistakes that do happen.”

“It isn't your fault... People don't like me.  They think I'm stupid.”

“You're not stupid.”  Nattsumii added.

“I am!  I cannot understand the harder things.  She retorted when Kasai knocked at the door.

I walked out and glanced at the sheet to my dissatisfaction.  Kasai immediately called out to Masuda and Oshima making it an urgent matter.  Hayashi Hiroshi became our prime suspect after failing to obey orders of a restraining order.  My blood boiled reading the violations that I wanted to march out there to go on a hunt but quickly I defused my personal bomb when I saw Yoko and the progress with Matsubara.

“Masuda and Oshima will take care of it from here.”  I said as we confirmed to each other to keep her at the station for the time being.

[kuro808]

Part 2-5

We didn't have too many resources dealing with kids so we gave her a tour of the station which she was partly excited about but once Sae came in she walked over to her and smile.

“Ahh...  Who is this cute girl?”

“I'm Yoko.”

“Nice to meet you.  I'm here to meet Sayaka.  Do you know where she is?”

I stood behind her flashing a smile as Yoko ran to the interrogation room.

“Looks like you are working hard on a case.”

“We let the others take care of the field work as we looked after Yoko.”

“How long are you planning to work tonight?”

“Maybe if I'm good I may have a quiet dinner with you.”  I gave her a kiss on the cheek as she dropped off a container of stew.

Yoko and Matsubara grabbed bowls for the three of us and scooped into her stew.  One spoonful and Yoko slid her spoon into the bowl.

“What's the matter?”

“This is really good...”  She sniffled a bit before taking another spoonful.

The phone rang and it was Masuda closing in on the suspect.  I grabbed my coat and Kasai walked over to talk to the girl.  We consumed our bowls quickly and jumped into the car.

“They are near an apartment complex.”

“Won't we be scaring people into a frenzy?”  Matsubara asked as I slowly nodded.

“They want us to do that.”

We arrived a block away as Masuda and Oshima drove pass us pointing at the building.  A woman with a heavy coat and sunglasses stopped at the building's entrance.  She lifted her glasses up and strolled in our direction.

“Shinoda Mariko, Tokyo precinct detective.”

“Akimoto and Matsubara from FPA.”  I flashed my badge as she curled her lips.

“Hayashi, what do you have on him?”

“Possible charges of premeditated murder.”  I responded as she nodded.

“So we are here for the same thing?”

“Tokyo doesn't have our case.”  I responded as she handed over her notes and Nattsumii gave ours over to her.

She was after him for a different murder.  I remembered priority goes with precinct so I had to lay off but the short-haired woman directed us over to the sting operation from the coffee shop.  She had been sitting when Oshima and Masuda came into the picture.  Once we explained why they were present, Shinoda instantly set off the plan.

“Can you do the arrest?”  She asked as both of us nodded.

“You two guard the back.”  She instructed as we ran to the back of the building waiting for the mouse to move closer to the cheese.

[DiVAGal2458]

This is getting more and more interesting! 
Poor Yoko...I wonder what will happen to her...
I can't wait for the next part!

Thanks this is a rather quick one compared to others

Part 2-6

My phone went off as we sat in the bushes.  I opened it to see her name and answered still in the hiding spot.  Matsubara glanced up to see no eyes peering toward us and guided me to the electric box.

“Masuda, Shinoda has a jurisdiction over us.”

“Tokyo police doesn't have the case.”

“Different case, same person.”  I replied.

“Grr...  What are we supposed to do?”

“Sit back.”

Once I hung up, Matsubara pointed up toward the smoke.  I drew my gun from the holster and stared at the stairs.  Out of the chaos, A half-naked man dragged himself out and balanced onto the ledge.  Nattsumii followed him to the other side as I stood there with the gun in hand.

“You are under arrest.”  I shouted as he hit the stairs.

He rushed down and I saw him charged like a bull towards my partner.  I slid in front tackling him down into the ground.  Shinoda came running over flashing us an OK sign as we picked him up and escorted him into the car.  Masuda and Oshima followed us to Tokyo Station for booking.

Hayashi Hiroshi was an athletically built person with a goatee.  We threw him into a cell as we entered in our files to them.  Shinoda bowed to us when everything was settled.  On the drive back, I broke a smile to relieve the stress from the case.  We arrived all at once as Yoko came running up to me and swung her arms around me.

“Thank you.”

“You're welcome... Yoko-chan.”

“Akimoto, Matsubara, Masuda, and Oshima come to my office.”  Tomita grunted as we fitted ourselves into the room.

“Good job.  Teamwork is very important in these cases.  Tokyo commended us on a great job.  Now, I must say that we need to celebrate.”

“Tomita!  We can do it tomorrow.”  I recommended as the rest agreed.

“Tomorrow, my treat!”

We each reached in to get a handshake from him before dispersing out of the office.  A woman with short, black hair stood by the desk with a jacket on.  Oshima walked up to her and escorted her to me.

“I'm Minegishi of Tokyo Child Care Services.”  She introduced herself.

“Yoko-chan, she is going to take you to a place where you can stay safe.”  I whispered as she wrapped herself around my waist.

“Sayaka... Can't I stay here?”  She looked up teary-eyed.

“Sorry, we cannot let you stay here.  Minegishi-san will give you a home that will be welcoming.”  I comforted her as she nodded and grasped Minegishi's hand.

I watched her go into the car and drove off immediately.  I signed off on the report and headed home to Sae with the empty pot.  I laughed when I realized it had been stained but I knew she would allow me to soak it at least for the night.

[kuro808]

Part 2-7

After filling the pot with water and soap, I headed into bed where Sae had been sleeping and slid under the sheets slowly not to awake her.  Seemingly it was weird to not say hello to her but I went to sleep quickly with the mission finished.

I awoke with the sun rushing over to clean the pot when I felt her arms wrapped around me.  Her hands ventured up and surprised me with a kiss on my neck.  Sae turned me around and pressed up against me locking hands with her.  Our bodies ventured over to the bed slowly readying my body for the next event when the phone rang.

“Leave it to voicemail.”  I said as I felt her hands on my bare body.

Sae released the stress from my body immediately.  The volume was louder than usual as I exploded from my shell into the refreshed woman.  I knew she would tend to go for round two but I had stopped her when the flashing light caught me.

“This is Matsubara…  Hope you are enjoying your day off…  When you have time, can we have coffee together?  You can bring Sae along…  Bye!”

“Who was that?”  Sae asked.

“It was Nattsumii.  You want to have coffee?”

“Sure.”

We arrived at the coffee shop down the street assuming she meant there and saw her in the corner with a cup in hand and waved at us to walk there.  We moved into the booth and were handed our cups when Matsubara turned toward the floor manager walking around with a notebook in hand and black clothing.

“Excuse me!  Can I order something?”  Sae yelled as Matsubara grabbed the menu and placed it up as a fence.

Sae’s smile exposed a certain aspect of her personality as she came over and Sae narrowed her eyes as she came over with a pencil her auburn hair.

“What’s up?”

“Kobayashi-san?”  Sae mumbled.

“Miyazawa?”  She tilted her head.  “Matsubara?”

“Hey!  Oshisashiburi.  What are doing here?”

“I work here part-time and the rest of the time I do studying for the police force.”  She explained as Matsubara lowered the menu.

“How are you doing?”  She asked quietly.

“Nattsumii… I need to ask you about the force since you are involved in that business.”

“Let me introduce you to my partner, Akimoto Sayaka.”

“Sae!  Your friend is police too!”  She shouted.

“Female Protection Agency.  We primarily handle crimes against females.”

“That’s cool.  Anyways, what you guys want to order?”

“Pancakes are fine.”  Sae answered.

“I’ll take another cup of coffee.”  I answered for both of us when the phone rang.

“Oshima, do the initial investigation and we can handle it tomorrow with everyone.”  I commanded as we sat there to enjoy the day off.

[kuro808]

Part 2-8

After the discussion with Kobayashi, we headed to the amusement park to enjoy the day as usual turning off my phone when Masuda was in the area looking up at the roller coaster with Matsubara next to her.  Sae and I got off seeing her with a firm expression on her face.

“Masuda, what are you doing here?”

“We… need you.”  She said with her head down.

“We have a day off.”

“Tomita had asked if you come in, he’ll grant you overtime pay.”

I glanced at Sae and she motioned me to go but I looked around first before agreeing.  “Give me two hours and I’ll go.”

“I can go in early.”  Matsubara added as she followed Masuda.

Sae and I quickly headed over to the food court for lunch with my head deep into work mode.  I could see Sae in my mind’s eye wanting me to go to work but she knew I would only go if it was an emergency and she knew what was considered an emergency.  I ordered a lean meat burrito for both of us as I turned on my phone to the hundreds of messages.

“You could have gone…”

“Sae, please try to understand that I need time with you.”

“I know…”  She replied.  “Your work is important to you.”

“It is but you’re important too.”

I felt Sae wrapped her arms around me as usual when I made my point.  It seemed shallow to say I’m right but I knew how important she was and it would kill me to lose her.  Once we got the burritos, we sat at the table and munched through the meal without speaking.  I grabbed my phone to text Nattsumii and waited for a reply as Sae was midway through her lunch.

“Thank you.”  She spoke with her mouth filled with food.

“No problem.”

I saw the text and ran off to the parking lot where Matsubara was breathing hard as she was hiding her eyes.  I wanted to ask but she drove back to the station where Tomita was standing with a folder in his hand with a sour look to his face.  I nodded my head and opened up the profile.

“Kobayashi Kana?”  I said to myself when the face popped up in my head.

“She is being charged with assault in a former case and it was connection to a woman’s murder.”  Matsubara explained as I shook my head.

“Is she still working?”

“Yes she is.”  She nodded heading to the car as I dropped off the file onto my desk.

“This is just questioning.  I would feel the same about someone I knew.”  I comforted her as we drove off to the coffee shop.

[kuro808]

Part 3-1

“Akimoto?  What can you tell us?”  She asked with the microphone in my face.

“It is too early.”  I responded as I grabbed Kobayashi by the wrists.  “You are being asked into questioning.”

She nodded taking her into the car as her eyes stared toward Matsubara.  Kobayashi seemed quiet for the ride back which made me feel suspicious and was making my partner nervous until we could get a room.  She took her seat with her eyes away from us as we poured a glass for her.

“Where were you two nights ago?”

“I was at home studying.”  She replied as Matsubara stood.

“Can anyone state you were at home?”

“No, unfortunately…”

“Did you have an exam the next day?”

“It was today.  I needed to refresh myself closer to the test day.”

“I see.  There is one other thing.”  I said as I took out a report about her.  “Have you explained to them what had happened five years ago?”

She purses her lips as she glared at Matsubara before looking up at me.  “I thought it was outside of the realm of investigation.”

“The force allows that limit if it manages to find a cause to not look into it but it has to be reported.”

“Understood, as for the questioning, I have no idea what you guys are talking about.”

“It happened outside of your apartment complex.”  I said as she looked toward the sun.

There was a pause as she shook her head when she remembered the incident and then pointed out a dumpster where she saw people looking in the trash.  I wrote down the clues as Matsubara continued to get answers from her.  Eventually I realized it was getting nowhere and released her from our custody.

I sat at my table and looked over the details of the body.  Ashikawa Demi-Marie.  Age 23.  Master’s student at a nearby university.  Death caused by affixation.

Ayaka dropped off her autopsy report onto my table and quickly headed the other way.  Assumption was she was choked from behind with a piece of plastic string.  Rape was thrown out but there was a possible sexual assault before the murder.

The clues were like raindrop in a bucket.  I closed the file and threw it onto my desk when Matsubara took her seat at the other end and picked up the file.  I stared at my phone waiting for a call but it had been sitting there until Masuda and Yuko had returned from their investigation.

“Nothing yet?”

“This has been officially a potential cold case.”  Masuda expressed her frustration as Nattsumii and I decided to drive out to the crime scene.

I didn’t have any expectations but when we walked up a cloth was caught in the tree and then under my foot was pebbles when my light caught a clear plastic.  Crime scene investigators rushed over to my location and picked up the items including a card of a man, Ashikawa Teruo.

[kuro808]

Part 3-2

A brief report had been ready for us when we returned to the station and we drove to the nori warehouse where a guy in a white bandana had a cigarette hanging from his lips with three other men in a blue bandana.  Nattsumii reached back and the men drew their guns at us as she showed them her badge.

“Whoa, they are here not to hurt us.”  He held out his hand approaching us.

“We’re here to talk about Demi-Marie.”

His smile had been wiped off instantly.  The three men stood in shock as they saw the man fall to his knees.  He looked up to see tears slowly roll down his face.

“Don’t tell me…”

“Ashikawa-san, she had been murdered.”  Matsubara breathed.

“My wife… Has she been contacted?”

“We haven’t found her yet.  Once we do get in contact, she’ll be notified.”

The men ran in the warehouse and out came fifteen more with a heavy set man with a receding hair line come out observing the group outside.  I never have seen a man of his caliber cry before, a Yakuza lieutenant with twenty years of crime on his sheet with his face buried into his hands.

“Teru… we’re sorry about your daughter.”  One man said when the heavy set man walked toward him.

“You two!  Come with me to my office.”

We followed the man into the elevator up to the second floor room with a portfolio of Ashikawa in his hands.

“Teruo was in deep but he paid his price to get out of the yakuza.  When I met him, he lost the pinky tips and begged me for work.  I had owed him a favor for bailing me out of debt and I gave him a job as a stock worker.  He never got in trouble since he was employed here.  I can prove whatever to say he isn’t the suspect.”  He explained.

“How can we confirm that?”

“He always drinks with me every evening and he sleeps in the trailer we have for all the workers.”

“Can that be confirmed two days ago?”  I asked.

“Yes.  He was concerned about something… It could have been a wedding.”

“Wedding?  She had a fiancé?”

He looked around before leaning in towards us.  “Teru was happy about his daughter.  Even though he was in jail for half of her life, he swore to not get into any trouble.”

“That is all.”

We walked down the steep staircase as he was at the bottom with his face red and his fist balled up.  I stood against him and he released his hand.  The men stood behind him glaring at him as if he was a god and he tilted his head down.

“If you find her killer, I want to confront him before he rots in jail.”

“You cannot attack him at that time.”  I warned him as he flashed his smile.

“Attacking a person won’t bring her back, I know that.  But to see him and to etch a memory into my mind that I made my decision to leave because I don’t ever want to see a cell ever again.”

We nodded out heads before heading back into the car when there was a report of a car chase in the city.  We drove off and headed into the depths of the shopping district and set up out car as a barrier to shield the bystanders from danger.
