Chapter 293: Second Attack

S͇e͇g͇u͇n͇d͇o͇ ͇A͇t͇e͇n͇t͇a͇d͇o͇

This looks like it was a laborious day for the cops in general, since besides being guarding the marches so they don't get out of control, some other cops went to do the respective checks on those who were present at La Locura del Gran Arbol, more than anything else they took it or were lucky enough to be given the task of fulfilling it. Since it is better to ask some questions in a quiet place, contributing to the investigation, in a house, and as people are friendly thanks to their culture, they will always offer something to the guest, like a slice of watermelon or if they have air conditioning, because as we are in the middle of summer, the days will be mostly hot, certainly a bad luck for the officers who must be in the streets with tremendous heat. The marches did not stop, it was not even known why those people were doing it, it was a moderately large group, where you could hear that they were demanding security and more support for their lives, they were shouting with signs and a giant ego. While the people who were not involved in this and were going about their day quietly, could not help but stare at that march that was in the middle of the track, interrupting the passage of cars. The look of the strangers was confused, they just looked and went on their way, they did not take them much importance, although what they heard were.

『FOR A BETTER COUNTRY!!!!』『FOR A SECURITY THAT WE DESERVE!!!!』『NO MORE EMPTY PROMISES!!!! WE WANT WHAT WE DESERVE!!!!』『OUR FAMILIES SUFFERED AND ALL THEY GET AFTER WEEKS ARE QUESTIONS FROM OFFICIALS!!!! ABSURD SECURITY AND RESPONSE!!!!!』『IF WE DON'T MAKE OUR CONTEMPT KNOWN WITH OUR LIFE!!!! WE WILL NEVER BE HEEDED!!!!!』『WE WANT TO LIVE WITHOUT FEAR AS WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN!!!!!』

With a constant and present rhythm, these people were making their cries of protest to improve their lives, they wanted something, they understood it but at the same time they didn't, why are they still complaining about something that already happened, it won't happen again, the storm has passed, the necessary measures were taken, it is not necessary to make such a fuss, they should just go on with their lives and that's it. The people who did not care about the marches had opinions that they did not want to say it out loud, they kept it just for themselves, they watched and withdrew, they did nothing, if it does not have to do directly with them there is no need to do it.

『(What's wrong with those people? don't they have things to do or their work?)』『(They are already another day with their march, don't they get bored doing that?)』『(It's too hot, I already want to go home, I'm going to buy an ice cream around the neighborhood)』『(AHH!!!!! Run!!!! I'm going to be late for work!!! what's that? a march? what do I care, I have to hand in my work today!!!!!)』

People have their own lives that only they and those closest to them understand, complete strangers as it is just brushing it off with a glance and turning it over and walking away, they don't get it. The person who was at the front of this march which was the biggest so far since this started, looked directly without fear at all those people who were curious and just brushing their gaze, this person could draw his own conclusions with just this small demonstration, and frustrated this one would give another shouting slogan.

『WE ARE PEOPLE WHO CARE ABOUT OUR LIVES!!!! WE LIVED THROUGH SOMETHING THAT WE NEVER IMAGINED!!!! BUT WE HAD ENOUGH STRENGTH TO STAND UP AND FIGHT SO THAT THE SAME THING DOESN'T HAPPEN TO OTHERS!!!! ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT AT MY BACK, IS BECAUSE THEY SURELY HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO DO, BUT!!!! WHAT IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN PROTECTING YOUR OWN LIFE!!!! THAT OF YOUR FAMILY AND LOVED ONES!!!! THEY ONLY PROVE TO BE IGNORANT AND INDIFFERENT LIKE THAT PERSON WHO WAS PRESENT AND DID NOTHING!!!! THAT JUST GIVES ME TO UNDERSTAND THAT THERE ARE MORE LIKE HIM IN THIS COUNTRY BUILT WITH FALSEHOODS!!!! IF YOU ARE AS GOOD AND HONEST AS OUR CULTURE AND HISTORY SAYS!!!! COME AND FIGHT FOR YOUR RIGHTS!!!! WE WILL NOT REMAIN SILENT IN THE FACE OF ANOTHER ATTACK!!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!!!』

The person who was the leader and started all this after his recovery since he was also a victim of the attack, if you can call him a victim, was the same person who faced Cliston and ended up traumatizing Ozuru, this person's name is Yokota Yuu, where he literally took the meaning of his name, superior, as his personality. The people who supported him gave another loud shout supporting their leader Yuu, also thanks to his provocation, he made some curious people who were watching and thinking about the topic, either because they felt offended or doubtful, ended up joining a few of them to Yuu's march, you could notice Yuu's smirk to this, who failed to look properly by looking back, the traffic light was green for crosswalk, who ended up colliding with a man who was just going about his day, they both fell to the ground, everything would end with an apology, that would be the normal and enough, but Yuu felt irritated, that he stood up annoyed.

『TAKE A GOOD LOOK YOU IDIOT!!!! DON'T LET ME LOOK STUPID AFTER MY SPEECH!!!! I am someone important who is fighting for you, for those on my back, friends, family and myself, don't get in my way of justice again if you don't want me to show you how I really do things!!!』

Yuu couldn't take it anymore, that he ended up holding the guy by the collar of his clothes and with a threat even worse than when he was in the attack, he was really angry, he wanted to keep posture, he knew he had to, but the aftermath of that day, his real distraction and release was wanting to abuse others. That guy who was being threatened asked for forgiveness and told him not to do anything to him, everyone stood still, even the march, Yuu could not stand to see that attitude, as those who show weakness and do not solve the problems with a clean fist annoyed him, he raised his fist, but at the time of raising his fist he realized something.

『(Why is it quiet?)』

The march that was making noise had stopped, both their shouting and walking, but it wasn't just that, but Yuu looked at the sidewalks where people were passing by and realized something.

『(No one is trying to stop me)』.

People were passing by and just doing what I anterorally said, to sum it up they were ignoring him for things more important to them, they just looked curiously and left, if they were not in their sight range while passing by no others would even turn to see what was going on anymore, Yuu felt confused, all this time he has been living with a population or inhabitants like this...why don't they do anything, he raised his fist to hit the guy, but not a complaint there, neither strangers nor those who supported him, no one interfered.

『(I get it, I just found a flaw of our society)』.

Yuu was drawing his own conclusions, that in this country it's always seen the apologizing and being good to get out of many situations, but really that's good...of course it is, being polite and knowing that you made the mistake is fine, but that's not always going to solve everything, if he tries to hit him and he does it, what would people do? They would still stay watching and walking his way as if nothing? or they would stay to tell him something, most likely they would ask him not to continue, but that is called intervening? intervening is giving him the counter so he doesn't continue with his act, will someone come to hold him so he doesn't continue hitting him? Yuu, when he has been recovering at home, has investigated the population of his country and realized that they have become less and less sociable and even reserved, more than usual, they even find it difficult to open up not only with people, but also with life situations. In short for Yuu, these people were becoming.

『Go away, don't cross my path again, weak people are disgusting』.

That guy was retreating in fear, he continued on his way grieving and sad as if nothing had happened, the onlookers who managed to look, having the guy near them, did not even ask him if he was okay or if he was in pain, nothing, they continued on their way ignoring everything else. While the march, congratulated their leader and flattered him for having forgiven that person, they also had their own comments, where they said that they had no reason to intervene, it is up to Yuu and that guy, they are the only ones who can take charge in the matter, since it is their problem and the others have nothing to do with them.

『(I see, these people are like them too, my problem...it's our problem, although I'm glad they're with me, they have airs to change and stop being weak, well, we went through that hell, so we don't want others to go through it, I want to be heard for the first time, no longer be the one who listens, damn company I worked for....I was just someone else's donkey..... they forced me to fit in society...I repressed my taste of fights for you....I want to be seen, I want to stand out, I want to act like me, I want to fight someone else again and hit, that fool Cliston, how good it felt to hit him and his friend, pure words and no actions, like those old gentlemen above us, maybe a good hit will make them reflect)』-『TO CONGRESS!!!!!! WE HAVE TO CLAIM OUR RIGHTS!!!!! WE WANT TO BE SEEN AND HEARD!!!! SO LET'S CONTINUE WITH THE SAME ENERGIES!!!!! 』

Their target were the congressmen, since they are the ones who have the legislative power of their country, that should be accepted and that should be denied, who knows, as said before, a decade or more ago there has not been any corrupt, neither in the presidency nor in the congress, they made good decisions for the country to be better as always, their vote before a new proposal, is worth a lot. But if they really care so much about the welfare of their country, why did they allow this, is there not a measure or law to stop this from happening or the necessary measures? If they live in peace, why did something like this happen? is it the beginning of a lie? and if there are lies from a person of such a degree, it can only mean one thing, those people are also weak. Yuu was energetic and marching towards the congress, today important profiles of such rank are coming, they have something to say to him in order to be heard. It is an important day after all.

『The march doesn't stop and keeps heading to the congress』.

『Ahh....then if they are coming, we already took the necessary measures, several units came to protect the area and the congressmen, but even with all the security we have, I hope nothing escapes us』.

There were officers behind the march that was following them, wait? there were officers? why didn't they do anything before when they threatened that guy? they didn't have a pass? they couldn't get off their bike? why....But anyway, they were communicating with their other colleagues and squad leader to give the warning, this already happened before, but now their objective is big, when there are events like this of important congressmen, something unexpected can always happen, they have to be with their eyes open everyone.

The screams could be heard from far away even when it was already passing by, in the Department Sales company, Alkas, Asa's company, the workers could hear and watch if they looked out the windows, they were worried and confused at the same time, it was already past noon, they had already finished what they had to do, many gathered their things and were getting ready to leave. In a way they made it thanks to Raiko who was able to unwind well.

『The march is over? so you are really going to the congress as the Chief said in the meeting, did you all finish your work? If you didn't finish your work, we will do it tomorrow with more time, we managed to get a little ahead, this day is important so everyone ready, let's get going』.

Raiko checked that none of the workers who came with him today could forget their things, they all entered the meeting area where they made their plans, they went over the plan they came up with a month ago, Raiko is not as good at this kind of things as his leader, Na, is, but there was no other way, his boss could not come to support him at least in this review. While those who were going to be visited by the cops are in their homes, they will be in charge of deceiving them, while those who stayed in the company, already have more than clear what their next move will be.

『And this time how will we hide and infiltrate...wearing the masks again or using something suspicious won't do this time Raiko-san』.

『You're right, there will be officers guarding the place, but have they already forgotten? this time we won't use anything, we'll show ourselves as we are, we have to follow the same method as last time, we'll be the fuse that sets off the bomb again *smiles*』

Raiko remembered perfectly the plan since he wrote it down in his phone, it is the first time he will be present at an attack, the other time he could not because he had work to do, it is also his opportunity to show that he can not only in the field of work, but also that he is able to change this country, the goal of his boss wants to fulfill it too.

------------------------------------------

In a housing estate on the outskirts of the city, in a quiet neighborhood, in a house where nothing seemed to happen and hide nothing, Kenji was in front of a closed room, everything indicated that here was what was hidden, and waiting for him he felt someone tapping him on the shoulder.

『Please.....have mercy.....I beg you.....do not enter the room....』-『My family....I don't want to lose it....』

Asa looked downcast, sad, beaten, weak, you could tell how tears wanted to come out of his eyes, he was shaking with helplessness most likely. Kenji was....era lie if he was serene and calm, to see this kind of people although he saw it many times, always weighs bad, the situations are different for everyone, but it seems that this will be a very special case among all.

『Sakai Asa, I am not the one to blame for you losing your family, you simply made a mistake 』.

He took posture and has to do his job, this at last would open the door of Asa and his wife's room, but, there seemed to be nothing at first impressions, it was a married couple's room, a separate bed? Why a separate bed? shouldn't they be married? shouldn't it be a double bed or something bigger for them to sleep together? why? ....Kenji drew his conclusions, this told him a lot. Asa couldn't stand it anymore he wanted to interrupt Kenji to throw him out of his room, but Kenji quickly denied him.

『I forbid you to enter the room, right now I am doing a check, please take distance as you were doing, I don't like to say it but, you now have no right even in your house』.

『.....Yes....It's okay...』

Sad, regretful was the tone coming out of Asa's voice, Kenji would continue but what...there is now no framed photograph or picture of Asa's family in the room, nowhere was there, on any piece of furniture, not even on top of the drawers, they must have worn out their photographs by now...no, that is a very silly conclusion, but it is just as curious that there is none after seeing all of the above. But if something curious was found where Kenji was passing by, there was a crucifix necklace, is it catholic or religious? This I ask Asa where this one would say.

『....No....I just bought it because.....I felt bad.....』

『(Wrong? do you feel guilty about something? every time I understand where you're going) And ask for something with the crucifix, pray to it?』

『.... There are days when I feel so bad.... that I end up apologizing and that I help my daughter.... thinking about the well being of my family...it helps me a lot....』

Here would end this conversation, he would leave it in the place where Kenji found it, he would look at the ceiling but there was nothing, he would now check the closet next to him, there were 2, one on the left and one on the right, again being separated? although this one makes a little more sense, but .... Kenji would ask if this was his or his wife's closet, where he would answer that it was his. At first impressions upon opening it, there were normal clothes, mostly shirts, suits, and fancy pants, Kenji already has his Asa data, so he knows he is the owner of Alkas Company, having so many fancy clothes, how come he looks so careless, Kenji would run his hand over the different clothes that were in the closet, just like checking the pockets, he had to do it carefully so he wouldn't overlook anything.

『(.....I hope I don't find it.....wait.....where did I leave the gun that day?.....I remember I was really scared to find it.....not knowing what to do I might have left it in the same place.....then...)』

『DID YOU PUT IT BACK IN YOUR BAG? ENSERIO???? HAHAHAHA BUT YOU CAN'T BE MORE OF AN IDIOT, YOUR BRAIN DOESN'T WORK OR WHAT???? IT BETTER NOT BE THERE, OTHERWISE YOU KNOW WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN』

Asa was worried since he doesn't remember where he left that gun that day, out of fear he may have left it where he found it, since he didn't want to know anything about that gun, throwing it away was not an option either, quickly everyone would notice, take it to work? but what if there is a check up? a revision? besides that working in the place where you hid the gun, would make him unable to concentrate, his home is the only place where he can have it.

!!!!! Kenji seems to have found something while checking the bags and coats, he felt something hard, his expression said so, Asa wanted to interrupt but Na told him not to rush that he would take care of it when he discovered it, Kenji taking out that hard object from his pocket realized it was a.

『(What is this? why does it have a multipurpose keychain?) Hey Asa, could you explain to me what is this doing in your coat?』

『....That....is a useful tool....so I need it for my day to day life....I must also use it from time to time to make me remember why I go on with my life.....』

Asa was trembling, he really wanted to go into his room but couldn't, the answer he told him, Kenji already understood a little bit more and more, but it still feels weird to him a multipurpose keychain, why does the head of the company that deals with selling apartments need this...that would be rummaging through his private life, but that's what he needs to do. Kenji commented that he will take this keychain, it may be important, you could tell from his face that Asa didn't want that, but he couldn't refuse.

『(Good thing I brought these little bags to keep clues, I hope my fingerprints didn't get stuck, now I would touch the other closet)』

『Are you going to check the other closet?...it's my wife's.... I wouldn't like it and she wouldn't like having her clothes searched..... you know.... or don't you have any shame in front of a woman?....』

『Sakai Asa, we are not teenagers, we are adults who do what we have to do, if I was nervous about doing this, from the beginning I wouldn't have decided to give her a check』

Sorrowful Asa could not deny Kenji, who this one would have the other closet and you could find the clothes of Asa's wife, this one checked from one side to another, to see if he could find something, but after minutes it seems that there was nothing, the only thing he managed to find in one of the pockets was an earring.

『Ah!!! That's the earring that my wife lost days ago.... thanks for finding it officer....』

『An earring? I'll leave it on top of here (well, now it's time to check the bottom drawers, in the closet there were normal clothes, so in these bottom drawers it must be)』

Just as he did before with Asa, when he checked the drawers after the closet, he found the underwear, now the same thing had happened, Kenji didn't flinch at all, he would reach in and pull out in order to find something, but after a small check, a voice would speak.

『Please.... don't check anymore....there's nothing there....』

Embarrassed Asa would speak, luckily Kenji had already finished as he did it quickly, this one was doing his job but he understood at the same time that it is embarrassing for many. Kenji checked under the bed but there was nothing, he checked on top of the closet in case there was something, but there was nothing either, he had already checked most of the things, but nothing at all he could find. The only thing that was left was the nightstand that was in the middle of the two beds, but he had finally found something that was strange that it was not there before, there was a framed photograph on top, it was of Asa's family, the typical family reunited looking at the camera. There were books on top as well that were mostly classic stories. The nightstand had 3 small drawers, when checking the first one, nothing strange could be found, more here was kept what the husbands wanted quickly at hand, like some creams or sleeping medicines. There was nothing strange, when checking the second drawer, it could already be noticed that here they did not keep big things for the house, but for their work, there was more paperwork or copies of Asa's work, like notes from himself so he would not forget what he had to do in the company, but again there was nothing strange, now the only thing that was missing was the third drawer, and without thinking Kenji opened it and what he found was something like what was always happening. In a feeling of "you don't need to find it, I'll tell you where it is myself."

『(A safe?)』

The only thing in the third drawer was a small safe, he took it in his hands and was passing it to look at, it felt light but you could still hear by the slight movement he made, that it had something in there, but what was it? Kenji was going to tell Asa that there will be the safe for him, but he was very scared not realizing that Asa was already on his back and with quick hand movement, Kenji for the first time had felt fear after the attack. But all this was a slight scare, since Asa wanted to take the safe from him, but Kenji reacted at the last moment by removing his arm.

『Please....give it to me.....anything but that.....I don't want.....I don't want anyone else to know....I'm....a horrible person.....』

Asa was crying, he couldn't stand it anymore, he was begging for the safe, it was already obvious, here is something to blame Asa for some crime he did, Kenji was sure of that, this is no time to get carried away with sentimentality, he is close to the truth, this man who is crying may be the one behind the attentive of the Big Tree.

『Sakai Asa, there will be the box, or else I will be forced to act based on the law and my principles』.

『.....There's.... no other way for me not to do it.....』

『It's an order, I'm not asking you for a favor』

『.....Order.....dammit...why are they good for this.....』

Asa was crying in frustration hearing how Kenji was behaving, gently as it seems he calmed down Asa, but he didn't calm down because he was relieved, he calmed down because the strength already left him, the safe has a pattern of numbers, where Asa was placing it without any problem, but then it seems the safe didn't open after the code, From there Asa asked Kenji to please give him the multipurpose key ring, as he needed it to open it, this was strange, but anyway he gave it to him, after a few attempts of struggle and movements, the safe was opened, where Kenji finally had in his hands what he had been suspecting so much that this man was hiding, he finally had proof that he could be the leader of this whole attack. Kenji looked through the small door of the box and what he found is.

『A phone?』

There was a phone, but it wasn't the thin and tactile kind, it was the one with buttons and they were still chubby and tiny, why would he have a phone like that...but it wasn't the only thing in the safe, there was what appeared to be a leaf, he picked it up thinking maybe it was a photograph of some horrible act, but unexpectedly, what he thought wouldn't leave him as surprised as he is now.

『Sakai Asa.... can you explain to me what's going on?』

What Kenji had in his hands, was not a photograph of some horrible act or as proof of bombing plans, no, nothing like that, it was a photograph of a family, a family that was growing up, they looked happy, they looked like they were going to be the best family ever, but there were many things that didn't add up here, and they were all of them. First of all, Asa in this photo looks younger and groomed, very confident just by looking at his face, a wife that if Kenji remembers, looks nothing like the woman he saw pass by earlier, and above all, in the photo there were 2 little girls who also looked like they were having a good time. Kenji could not understand what this was, what was going on, all the conclusioons and deductions he has been drawing, were wrong, why would he hide this photo.....the answer was obvious.

『Sakai Asa, you have 2 families, don't you?』

Kenji said it sadly, this if it touched his heart, where Asa when he heard it, he who had no more strength, fell down on the floor crying like a baby again, where all the time he kept repeating.

『I'm sorry.... I'm sorry.... I'm sorry.... I'm sorry...I'm sorry.... I'm sorry....』

Kenji was with a dark countenance, he couldn't believe this from Asa, he could expect it from everything, but this that he has another family, it's just something he can't believe, Kenji again checked the picture and looked especially at the 2 little girls, if he does a little memory he may be getting closer and closer to the solution to another problem.

『I need you to tell me everything Sakai Asa, I'm not going to let you get out of this』.

Yes, everything matched up perfectly, those 2 little girls looked a lot like the previous girls he visited before, he just opened an investigation folder to this problem he encountered, he came to solve one but ended up encountering another problem, on top of the ones he doesn't like at all. At this point Kenji already by the feeling of the moment, put aside the investigation, now personally wanted to know why this man who seemed to love his only family very much and would give everything for him, it turns out that he has another. With a look that filled him with anger, Kenji would listen to Asa.

『What you see in the picture....is my first family....the woman is called Tsuji Chiyo, while the 2 girls are called Hanako and Haruko, the surname is the same....pero....ahhh....and the man you see there....is called Tsuji Asa....that is my real surname....』

Tsuji Asa, that was Asa's real name, Kenji was thinking that now it makes sense that before he said that he didn't call himself Sakai, he changed his last name...or he adopted his wife's last name...for both situations it's too weird. Also another thing that caught his attention was the names of the girls, Hanako and Haruko, will they be the same girls that he met before...but these have the different name, what is going on here, there are many doubts and questions that Kenji wants to know.

『We were a happy married couple..... with the dream of forming a family....we eventually had our first daughter, which we named Hanako while the little one named Haruko, she is adopted....I still remember how our little Hanako asked to have a little sister. ...little sister?...ahhh no.... daughter...yes...she asked to have a daughter, I guess she meant a sister, she said things like she will be very good to her and she will spoil her a lot..... we couldn't have another child.....Hanako is our only biological daughter that I managed to have with Chiyo. ...I was happy to see that I had another daughter, we named her Haruko to match Hanako's name, plus she was a beautiful spring.....Everything was going well....I had my work stable....in personality I don't remember what she looked like.... every time I see that picture I always say to myself....this Asa if he looks confident and trustworthy....not like me who give all the opposite....We were a beautiful family, I was ready to give everything for my family, for my daughters.....but I realized late.....of the hell we would live through...』

Asa was telling what it was with his first family, where Kenji to this last one already saw Asa upset, so he helped him to sit on the bed, and he on the other, now staring at each other, Asa tried to get strength to tell, but just remembering it gave him a lot of fear and panic.

『Ahhh...if I had been smarter....if I had paid attention to those acts since I saw her.....this wouldn't have happened...an evil was growing inside our family and I didn't notice.....she started to talk very strange things where before she didn't say.....her smile and joy out of nowhere changed to abuse and power...I asked myself.....how could such an abrupt change have happened.....so she wasn't her. ....I never neglected her....she was everything to me just like my daughter.....why...where did I fail to let her get out of control and do all those things.....I was hardworking....I gave my time to spend time with my family.....I gave them affection and love....I never raised my hand to her....I always spoke to her calmly and with love....why.....what did I do wrong.....that evil was growing that I couldn't stop it when it was too late.... I still remember how he approached my family and made them change their world....he wanted to control me too.....the days were not the same....I was afraid of what he would do next.....I went to work afraid of what this person would do if he was not there....distrust the family....that is what you can do?.....I did not want to.....but one night I could not sleep because I heard a voice that told me horrible things.... she was telling me to make plans and to destroy everything....that everything is for her and nothing else for her....that I should leave it to her to make a real change in this world....she wanted to take control of everything...she even gave other names to my daughters.....all the time she was changing them and changing them.....right now I don't know how they are calling themselves....my little Hanako_....Haruko....how they are having it.....I had to solve this somehow....I am the man of the house.... I'm always trustworthy and reliable....but in front of the family...my family....I couldn't do anything.....I would try to calm her down but nothing I did worked....I didn't try to get help at that time....because it wasn't necessary....I thought it was only momentary....but I realized it wouldn't be until I saw with my own eyes how he mistreated us.....my family mistreated him and wanted to brainwash him....they put weird ideas into him since he was little. ....I even stopped seeing one of my daughters for a while.....and when she finally came home.... she was completely different....her expression.....was empty....I called her name "Haruko" but she didn't answer, every time I felt that I was moving away from what I tried so hard and wanted in the world....I also received the same fate on several days.....while she stayed at home.... planning everything....I felt used....I was afraid. ...I don't know how many years I could stand living in that house...I wanted to leave that place with my family....but I couldn't....her threats became worse.....until one day simply by my daughters' initiative, I decided to look for help.....I still remember how I left the house with that objective of doing everything possible for them....but on the contrary I was so afraid.....at last I was free....I could get rid of that woman in my life.... I felt like new....when I least imagined it...I opened my eyes....and I had already formed a new family.....when did it happen? I don't remember....but I was happy, I was very happy.....now I could fulfill what I wanted so much, a happy family where I will try and give everything for it....but at the same time I hated myself....because I decided to ignore and turn a blind eye to my previous family.....that's why...that's why....I AM A SUCKY PERSON AND FATHER!!!! I COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR MY FAMILY AND DECIDED TO RUN AWAY AT THE SLIGHTEST OPPORTUNITY!!!!! I DON'T!!!....I'M SORRY!!! for being such a coward....but that woman who I thought would give me only happiness....turned me into someone weak.....I just....want to be able to be happy and restart another life....I always wanted it since I always listened to him.....I don't.....se that's who I really am now. ...someone like me can really have another chance?....that photo....is to make me remember my past and never forget it...but when I stop to look for several seconds at the photo....the memories come from that bad life....I....am sorry for not being what you expected.... 』

After a rampage of feelings, Asa had finished telling his story with the other family, he didn't tell it very explanatory or congruent, since for him this must be a difficult subject, but at least he left closed ends to this, Asa was crying as his tears were going to fall to the picture, but Kenji placed his hand at the last moment so that this doesn't happen, he made Asa look up and confidently said.

『You are strong, Tsuji Asa』

When Asa heard this, he could not help but want to cry more for what was happening, with his arm he wiped his tears while Kenji took the photo with his hands to analyze it a little more. According to what Asa said, this is a family abuse, both physical and mental, and the cause must be that woman who swore eternal love to Asa. Now Kenji feels that he solved some loose ends, Tsuji Chiyo, at some point in the marriage must have gone crazy and that was the beginning of the change in the family, she took control of both her daughters and Asa, it will not be known why, that would be under investigation, but having a successful man in the future, a family that would grow well, eh? why she would go crazy and mistreat her family, it doesn't make sense....although with all this attempt to free herself completely, this may have been one of the first cases of de-stressing and total liberation, and the victim was this family.

『I know Tsuji Asa is my name.....but I prefer to be called Sakai Asa, Sakai is my current wife's last name....the other last name.....just brings back bad memories and traumas of my old family....I'm sorry....for being weak....yo....』

『This is not known to his current wife』

『No....if I knew....yo....I'm sorry if this may sound offensive...but this is my second chance....I'd rather you know nothing about my past....right now I'm working and striving for my children, both the infant I have and the other 2, I know someday I will be brave enough to save them too.....』

『I understand.....(I finally came across an extreme case of family abuse, I didn't expect this....just by looking at Asa currently and the Asa in this picture.....the girls in this picture and the young girls I met hours ago.....it's too abrupt a change but it makes sense with everything they went through) And this cell phone?』

Kenji took the old cell phone, it seems it still has battery, they turned it on where Asa showed Kenji a lot more evidence of the case, there were saved photos of Asa's old family, you could see they were happy, as well as audio video recordings could also be found. In the video recordings, you could hear Asa documenting the day to day life of his home, there was nothing unusual, just a family having a good time, but in the audios it was the opposite, you could hear interference, a silence of minutes, then you could hear things breaking, banging and sounds of pleading.

『I was surprised too when I heard the audios....my daughters had it all planned to get away with it....but I.....am just a coward who can't handle his own family.....』

Kenji could not believe his ears, he is literally witnessing a random day of when this family is going through hell, there was more than enough evidence for it, this investigation folder is the worst and extreme one Kenji had in all his work. He saw Asa who was destroyed, now he was still seeing a man crying, sad, with sorrow, with no strength, but now he makes sense for everything he has been through, he is a coward, that's for sure, but he was able to form another family even with the trauma of this one.

『I'm going to help you, to rescue your family, Asa』-『So when all this is over, I will only ask you one thing, become responsible for both families, I don't know how you will do it, it will be difficult for both families, but if you already feel you have a lot of work and you can't do it anymore, resist and work twice as hard, your families, your daughters don't have to pay the blame for your mistake, you decided that, so you must be aware of everything you have to do from now on』-『A father always makes miracles for the happiness of his children』.

He spoke to him as father to father Kenji, who this one knows and is against having other families, so for his mistake now he must be responsible for all of it. He will not let him only focus on one, if not on the 2. Hearing this Asa, did not stand more for the help that will give Kenji, who before speaking, already saw the officer smiling and with open arms ready to give Asa a hug.

Where that was what Asa needed, the support in his secret and that someone would come to understand his situation. With all this there was nothing more to look for or check at home, the secret that Asa was hiding and would keep hidden was discovered, he acted nervous and worried not because he was complicit in the attack, but because he was afraid that they would discover the truth about his other family. Kenji in the end ended up making nice passes with Asa, where as he walked down the stairs Asa would say to him.

『I'm glad you finally found out my secret....yo....I'll try to be stronger to carry all the weight.....ahh!!!! Aren't you going to check the basement...it's the last thing I don't check in the house』

『The basement? do you have one? although I would feel bad to investigate more now that I know there's nothing here, but if you insist I will do it, this way I will also remove the doubt if I had something hidden here 』

!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quickly Kenji's phone rang alarmingly, and he did not even answer it, they were informing Kenji that there had just been an attack in the congress. This surprised the officer that he can only listen, they were informing him that the cause ended up being the march led by Yuu, they need all the police in the area to come as this is getting out of control.

『Another attack???? Okay!!! I'll be right there!!!!!』

『Attack?.....eh?...what's going on officer Kenji.....』

『For the time being I am retiring Asa, I promise you that I will help you in your case to be with your family again, and I apologize as I suspected that you were an accomplice with the Big Tree bombing, but I am glad that I was wrong, a good person like you, should not be involved in that, goodbye!!!』

Kenji was putting on his shoes at the entrance while he was commenting everything to Asa, while the latter is noticeable that he doesn't know anything about what is going on, but somehow he managed to stop them from suspecting him, but this in exchange of knowing something very intimate about him. Right now all the officers are going to the congress to stop this second attack.
