Afterdark (Aoi x Male Reader)

Surprise

A certain call alerted all the officers. The woman pleaded and feared. And even though all the elite members of the department rushed to the location, when they arrived it was too late. She was already dead.

The newspapers and TV news didn't waste a second to arrive at the place. After all this murder cases have been the trending topic around a shaken city of Tokyo. A wave of violence struck the streets of the capital, a majestic comeback for someone like him. A shadow who lurked in the deep.

Douma the Lady Eater. The worst criminal Asia has seen to this day. His record is like a taboo, even the slightest mention of it was enough to send a chill down your spine. He is a elusive one, running from the justice for years and years. No one can got a hold in him.

"Everytime is more gruesome..." Tomioka Giyu whispered as he inspected the bloody scene in front of him.

"Yes. The rookies can't handle it at all." (YN) eyed some new comers spilling her guts out "We have to get this bastard soon. Governor Muzan is getting nervous."

"Aren't you?"

"Who knows. I just want to finish this work and go home, it's already past eleven. Aoi is going to be pissed."

Tomioka-San nods in agreement. He knew how hard is to live with a butterfly. For him was the same, Shinobu would be anything but happy. Not out of anger, instead her worries will eat her mind for hours. 'Will he be alright? What if something happens to him? What if-'. He could hear her voice in his head.

"Yeah, let's wrap this up. I'll go with Rengoku-San and Kanroji-San." He announced and left his comrade behind.

A strange duo those two are. The taciturn water pillar and the bright flame pillar. Each one of the with are complete opposite side of the spectrum and yet the compatibility between them is absurd. They need little to no communication to work and the results are the same: supreme victory.

The buzzing phone took him by surprise. He didn't expect her to be awake, the shifts at the hospital would drain her out to the point where she would come home half-way into becoming a Zombie.

Blue: You coming home?

(YN): We're finishing, we'll go back to the office and after finishing some paperwork, we can go home.

Blue: 😠

(YN): Don't be mad, work is work.

Blue: Hmph. You will have to compensate me.

(YN): Oh yeah? Do you accept my body as a payment?

Blue: You bet.

The man laughed and after sending another text and then he went back to work. A long night was coming, but with those words the zest came back to revitalize his body.

Three in the morning, that was the time when he opened the door of his apartment. Finally home, sweet sweet home.

The four of them had to deal with all the paperwork and with the most troublesome task of being a police officer: telling the news to the families.

He hated whenever a voice answered at the other side of the phone. Some where polite and cheerful, others were no more than a bashful snare. Mothers, fathers, brothers and sisters; the voices could vary from household to household, there were times when a child would answer the phone.

"Mommy is not home." Some of them said and after asking for a cellphone number, they would finish the call.

And when they give the mortifying news a silence will take place. The one who heard the news will stay put, waiting for them to say that it was a joke. But it is no lies.
