Hikari Yuki sighed in her heart and tried to act nonchalant, seemingly seriously selecting the products in front of her without paying attention to the outside world in the slightest bit.
It looked normal.
The man looked around and bypassed Amuro Toru as he headed to the lone man on the side.
"You're finally here." The man was grumbling and the other party didn't seem to care about it as he pulled the gun.
Bang!
Before it could hit the second man, a can was thrown to his hand and the gun missed to the side, hitting the other things. But that loud sound was more than enough to make the other guests scream in fear and crouched down to hide.
The convenience store was only so big and there were not many people at this hour.
But the group of women who were chatting and talking outside of the convenience store immediately ran away without hesitation.
"You…"
Bam!
The two people struggled and the gun was knocked off to the side. Amuro Toru had come forward and kicked the gun away but didn't come any closer to the two people.
"What are you doing?"
"You killed him, aren't you? You killed my brother, Tachibana!" The first man was roaring in anger.
The second man was shocked. "What are you talking about? I didn't kill anyone!"
"You're the last person to see him!"
The two people scuffled and then there was the sound of police sirens from outside.
Hikari Yuki sighed in her heart and silently notified Morofushi Hiromitsu that she might not be able to return in time because she was involved in a case. Thankfully, she was nothing more than a passerby in this case.
She hid behind the shelves and peeked at the two people fighting on the other rows with Amuro Toru watching from the side. He looked like he was both ready to help and also to let it be. From the way it looked like, the fight shouldn't be too big.
It might be because Amuro Toru had kicked the gun away.
So when the police officers arrived, they quickly separated the two people and learned the cause. The first man returned home and found his brother dead but the last person to see him is this second man whom he knew came to the convenience store to buy things.
It has only been a few minutes, so he believed that it was the second man who killed his brother.
Hikari Yuki was standing on the side, acted like she was too scared and Sato Miwako came to her, patting her shoulder comfortingly.
Hikari Yuki: "..." thank you, but I'm actually fine.
And the other policemen who came were Takagi and Megumi Aiko. At this moment, Megumi Aiko was shocked when she saw Amuro Toru that she nearly screamed in the chat group.
