"I already told you before: you can never get rid of this kind of clingy parasite through force or threats."
As he spoke, Fujino let out a long breath. "You have two paths before you now. One is to swallow your anger and keep letting him extort you... Without any concerns holding him back, his future extortion will probably become even worse."
"The other is to call the police now and use the evidence I have to send him to prison. Then you can peacefully marry Shimazaki next month."
Taeko Tani fell silent for a moment before finally making her choice.
That night, the police arrived at the hotel near the shrine.
After obtaining a copy of the video evidence from Fujino, they loaded Morio Anzai, who was still unconscious, into a police car.
Since Fujino's first strike had stopped a crime, while his second had been in self-defense, the police did not make things difficult for either of them.
They merely had Taeko Tani accompany them back to give a statement.
As for Morio Anzai, based on Fujino's current knowledge of Japanese law, he was suspected of criminal intimidation and attempted rape during the intimidation. With multiple offenses combined, he was looking at a minimum of three years.
What was more, Taeko Tani was not the only person that bastard had extorted. He probably would not be getting out for at least eight or ten years.
Congratulations, Host, for solving an unexpected incident. System reward: 50 Detective Reputation Detective Reputation still required for Detective Level Up: 50
"So even without a System Task, solving a case or completing a commission can still earn additional Detective Reputation?"
Standing outside the hotel, Fujino watched the police car slowly drive away and could not help muttering to himself.
