Hypnosis Microphone: Blue Division~Bayside Story~

X/ Witnesses

His red ruby coloured orbs stare at the green amulet in his hand. He opens the amulet to peek into the contains; a memory card and folded picture inside the amulet.

"You're right..." Jyuto's voice draws his attention. The glasses man walk into the living room from one of the rooms in his house. There is a document in his hand. "She indeed is Homura Chiaki's sister," said Jyuto, while glances at the girl that laid unconscious on the couch in his living room.

"How did you know they might be related?" ask Jyuto, gazed at Samatoki that sit at the dining table. The silver-haired put down the green amulet and throw his sight at Jyuto.

"Chiaki messages me to take care of his sister on the same day that he was killed" replied Samatoki. Jyuto looks at Samatoki. Doesn't that mean, Samatoki might an important witness for the murder case?

"Thanks for letting me use your kitchen and cooking ingredients, Jyuto" suddenly, Riou voice draw Jyuto attention. He looks at Riou walks out from the kitchen while taking off the apron, and wipes his hand with the towels.

"No, it's fine" replied Jyuto, smiles at the ex-navy. "It's must be hard for you to hunt your dinner after the incident just now, plus, you have saved our lives and bring the girl here, so, lend in the kitchen is just a small matter"

"Well, at least, I know the ingredients in your cooking aren't some weird animals" whispers Jyuto.

Riou lifts his head, "Did you say anything?"

"Nothing"

"Mhmm" a voice from the living room draw their attention. Seems like the girl finally awake from the unconscious state just now. She opens her eyes to find she in an unfamiliar room. She gets up from her back and sits on her butt, in confused.

"You're awake" Jyuto speak up. The girl turns her head to see the police officer that she attacks just now. She jumped out when realized Samatoki and Riou are in the same room as well.

"W-where am I? And what do you want from me?" Panics Setsuna, in her guard position.

"Calm down" suddenly Samatoki speak, she looks at him with her eyes widen in surprise. "We won't do anything to you" he throws something at her. Setsuna catches it with her palm, when she looks at the thing thrown by Samatoki, it is the green amulet were used to belong to her brother, Chiaki.

"You're in my house. Riou knocked you out just now, so, we brought you here" explained Jyuto, while pointing at Riou. She looks at the man in the camouflage uniform as she frowns, "A soldier?"

The ex-navy bows, "I'm sorry for knock you out just now..." he apologized at Setsuna.

"Why there is a soldier here?" confuses Setsuna. "I thought the military was dissolved?"

"They are. Riou is ex-navy, only...he enjoys to lives survival way..." Jyuto replied on behalf of Riou. Jyuto took a sit on the couch, "Now tell me, Homura Setsuna..."

Setsuna startled when Jyuto called her name, "What actually happened to you, and your late brother?"

Setsuna silent, based on her facial, it's obvious she refuses to open her mouth.

"It's useless to hiding it, I've read your documents, your real name is Honami Setsuna, but when you moved from your previous division into Yokohama, you changes your name," said Jyuto, while flipped the documents in his hand.

"More than a month ago, Homura Chiaki was killed, you're the last person he met with before the attacks. There was your DNA on his body...and the location"

Setsuna frowns, "You suspected me for killed my brother?"

"No, it's not, it's obviously the Shimoda group's responsible on the murder, but, it's just weird that the detective that investigate this case unable to reach you out to negotiate...so I was wondering where you had gone?"

"I was locked up by the police"

"Pardon?"

"After I informed about my brother's death, and want to claimed his body, I was fooled by the police officer and they locked me up..." tell Setsuna. Jyuto frowns, "You means, you were locked up for no reason?"

"Instead of no reason, I locked up because of their selfish reason. Shimoda bribed the policemen to catch me, but before they hand in me to Shimoda, they locked me up in the station's cell" story Setsuna.

"Then, how do you escape?" asked Riou, sit opposite to Samatoki. Setsuna silent a moment.

"Still remember there was a police officer suicide two weeks ago?" Samatoki raises his brows, he did hear the news, although, that news sounds quite sketchy.

"Shiraishi-san is the one who helps me to escape..." said Setsuna. Jyuto speechless. "Are you try to say, that officer wasn't suicide but was murdered because letting you escape?"

"I am" replied Setsuna, no hesitation in her voices.

Samatoki look at Jyuto, "Hey, Jyuto, who did the investigation for the officer's case?"

"It was by the officer of the crime department from the same office as the late Shiraishi..."

"Heeehh~ not surprise" Samatoki leaned his back to the chair, his hand reach out to the seaweed snack on the dining table as he munches it. "No wonder Setsuna really sure that he isn't suicide, but murder instead," Jyuto nodded his head.

"Hey, Setsuna," the 18 years old girl look at Samatoki, when he called her, "You said, Shimoda was the one bribed the cops to catch you for them? What Shimoda wants from you? Isn't your brother work for them?"

"It's not Shimoda that the one looking for me, they were paid by an organization to get me..."

"Organization?" Samatoki tilted his head. So, Shimoda just a middle person?

"The organization is the one responsible to built the hypnosis microphone that we use now. My parents used to be work for them, but when they abandoned, they start an experiment of Immune Hypnosis Microphone Human," Jyuto gazed at Setsuna.

"You means, that you are..."

"Yes, I'm the Immune Hypmic Human ever exists" admitted Setsuna. "My parents were murdered due to the experiments, and they've hunted me since then..."

"And your late brother were killed because protecting you?" asked Riou. She nodded her head, in sorrow eyes.

"Oh, that is the reason why you didn't affect by our hypmic waves just now?" asked Samatoki. Setsuna nodded her head, "Yeah"

"Betrayed by yakuza and policemen...No wonder you refuse to reach out for police and get mad when I introduce myself just now," Jyuto rubs his chin, while look at Setsuna. She smiles bitterly, "Yeah...I'm sorry..."

"Well, I would become paranoid too if I'm in your position," reply Riou. Samatoki glances at Riou, well, Riou is right. He almost got knocked out during their first meeting before.

Jyuto looks at the document, "I see, so that's what actually happened," he pushes his glasses with his left middle finger. "I think, Shiraishi's case should be open back, we need to know either the murder is by his office mate or Shimoda's people," said Jyuto.

"Yeah, you should, Jyuto," support Samatoki, munch the seaweed snacks. He seems to enjoy to learn the information about the cases. It sounds like a gossip for him. Jyuto lifts his head, as he realized Setsuna's disbelief facial. "What's wrong?" he asked.

"N-no, I'm just...do you believe to everything I said?" asked Setsuna, still surprise. Jyuto replied, "Yes, after all, you're one of the important witnesses of the Homura's murder case, but who knows it's also related to the Officer Shiraishi's too"

Setsuna's cheeks turn red, "Thanks...I just don't know who should I believe anymore...but thanks," she bows down to Jyuto. The man just chuckles, he gets up and pats her brunette head.

"Nah, that's nothing" then, Jyuto excuses himself to talk on the phone outside, leaving the rest in his apartment.
