Chapter 69 Police Chief And Ayia's Rage
Chapter 69 Police Chief And Ayia's Rage
[EXTRA CHAPTER]
"Uh-hm uh" Aalto could not even articulate a sentence.
"Do you even have a good explanation why?" the chief asked with a furious face.
"Hmm he seemed a little too calm" Mikoto replied in a low voice.
"What? And you think that is a good reason?!" the chief shouted.
"You better go in there and apologize for your rude behavior. Or I swear I will fire you both from the police. And you will only be able to work as bar's security!" the chief yelled.
The detectives became even paler, they started sweating cold sweat.
They would never believe 30 minutes ago, that mistreating the young man in the interrogation room would make them come at the risk of losing their jobs.
"Mr. Gray, we are so sorry if we mistreated you." Detective Aalto apologized with a bowed head.
"Me too, I am deeply sorry for rude remarks and words. I hope I did not have said that. And I hope you don't hold against me." Detective Mikoto was even more nervous; he was the one being rude towards Theo. And if the chief saw the video, he would be finished.
"Sure, don't worry about it." Theo replied with a calm voice.
He was surprised that such a turn of events happened, but he was glad that everything was clear.
"Can I go home now?" Theo asked.
"Yes, Mr. Gray." an old man with white hair entered the room and replied to Theo.
"Mr. Gray, I am the station's chief and I promise you we will get to the bottom of this crime. We will not measure any efforts to solve this crime and put these bandits away for life." the chief said with a determined tone.
'What is happening?' Theo thought in confusion, he did not know how the station's chief became involved with his case.
"Sure, thank you for your efforts, chief." Theo still replied with a thankful face.
Theo talked a little more with the chief and left the station afterward.
As he left the station, he remembered that his car was still parked next to the restaurant.
"Now how am I going home?" Theo asked out loud.
"Need a ride?" a voice said behind him.
Theo turned and saw two beautiful girls by the side of a sports car.
'So, that's why...' Theo thought as he smiled at the gorgeous girls.
Ayia and Shizuka looked at Theo with a relieved expression.
Ayia could not hold back anymore and ran towards Theo, she jumped on his arms and hugged him.
"Uhg" Theo had the air in his lungs pulled out by the impact of Ayia's jump on him.
"Thank goodness, are you okay?" Ayia asked while still hugging him.
Theo smiled and hugged her back.
"Don't worry, nothing bad happened." Theo said with a calm voice.
"Anyway, how did you find out?" Theo asked after Ayia let it go of him.
"Well, I had a feeling that something bad would happen, so Shizu-chan said that she would check the surveillance cameras around the restaurant."
"When we arrived home, Shizu-chan hacked into the city surveillance system and we saw what happened."
"You were so awesome, Theo! It seemed like a movie scene!" Ayia fired multiple words in a short period of time.
Theo smiled; he was glad that Ayia became lively again.
"Thank you, girls, I appreciate your concern." Theo gave them a little bow with his head.
"No, you don't have to thank us. We are friends, aren't we?" Ayia said while making his head straight again.
"Of course!" Theo laughed.
"Thank you, Shizuka-san. I appreciate your efforts." Theo looked at the always serious Aria Shizuka.
But if someone looked closely at her eyes, they would see appreciation and bewilderment.
She did not imagine that Theo was so experienced!
In the entire episode, he behaved like a war veteran.
First, he fled the scene when the attackers were arriving to access the firepower of the enemy. Second, he divided them and took them one by one. Third, he called for backup.
And his proficiency in martial arts was phenomenal.
She presumed that he was at least a Master.
"Don't worry, I was happy to help." Shizuka replied.
"Let's go! We will take you to your car." Ayia exclaimed.
"Thank you" Theo smiled as he entered the car.
"I didn't know you were so adept in martial arts!" Ayia said with enthusiasm.
"Oh yeah, I love it. I practice daily in a dojo close to my apartment. I've been teaching Aurora too." Theo laughed.
"Really? Which styles are you proficient at? I did not recognize the moves you made." Shizuka asked.
"Hmm, that style I created. In most of the styles I am proficient in, I created myself. But some that you might know are Judo, Krav Maga, Karate." Theo said with a thoughtful expression.
"Wow and you are teaching Aurora?" Ayia asked while driving her sports car.
"Hell yeah. It's always good for a woman to know self-defense martial arts. The world is full of dangers." Theo exclaimed.
"Yeah, I agree." Shizuka said.
"So, do you have any idea why they were after you?" Ayia asked.
"Hmm, logic tells me that the possibility of them wanting to steal my car is higher. But I cannot help having the feeling that there is something else."
"Yesterday I was leaving the Fuji's building and I had the feeling that someone was watching me with malice."
"You guys know that my publishing company just launched countrywide, right?" Theo asked.
"Oh right! I read your manga, and it is awesome! I am looking forward next volumes." Ayia giggled.
Meanwhile, Shizuka nodded. She also read Theo's manga and she loved it.
"Thank you." Theo laughed.
"Well, yesterday, Sayuri and I received some guests from Sakura City. They wanted to poach the mangaka (me) of the Naruto Manga. But they tried to bribe our employees, Sayuri took evidence of corporal espionage from them and forced them to leave."
"But as soon as I leave the company after they are humiliated by us, I start to have this feeling?"
"It can't be a coincidence." Theo said.
"Wow Sayuri is so baddass!" Ayia exclaimed.
"I thought so too." Theo laughed.
"I agree with you. There must be something." Shizuka said with a thoughtful expression.
"You don't have to worry about it. All the truth will come out." Ayia said, but her tone was different.
Ayia was usually a lively and joyful person, but tonight she was furious.
The love of her life was almost killed!
When she saw what happened in the parking lot, she palled and could not breathe.
When the bandit shot towards the car with Theo behind it. She almost fainted.
She only calmed a little bit after seeing that Theo was okay.
But that would not make her rage fade away.
She wanted all the bandits to rot in prison!
Ayia told Shizuka to put in motion all the key figures that Yamada and Lionheart Family had in Elffire City.
That was how the Commissioner of Police became involved.
'It seems that their family is more powerful than I imagined.' Theo thought as he heard Ayia's affirmation tone of voice.
"I hope so." Theo smiled.
After a 10 minutes drive, they arrived at the parking lot where Theo parked his car.
"Thank you so much for everything! You were my saviors!" Theo said as he hugged the two girls.
"Let's plan to do something with the others." Theo said as he entered his car.
"Sure." Ayia said with a squeak.
"Bye." Theo said as he drove away.
After he went away, Ayia collapsed on her seat.
She was hyperventilating, she could not the heat of Theo hugging her by his own initiative for the first time.
"Oh my god... almost I could not hold on." Ayia said exasperatedly.
"I saw that." Shizuka giggled.
It was a rare occurrence for both.
The always outgoing and lively Ayia was embarrassed and red as a tomato because her crush just hugged her.
And the always serious and calm Shizuka was giggling in amusement at the sight of her sister's embarrassed face.
"Stop laughing, Shizu-chan!" Ayia squeaked again.
"Oh god." Shizuka laughed even more.
The two of them went home while bickering with each other.
