It has been a long time since so many partners have gathered together, probably the first time after the revision of the Road Traffic Management Law.There are about 100 two-wheeled cottos, twice as many small cars, and they are all 1500-2000cc, with a very low body and wide radial tires.Almost all two-wheeled motorcycles are 4000cc racing modified models.Knowing that they broke the law, they modified and disguised their cars.It's quite a sight to see so many cars together. The driver's clothing is also strange.Except for about 10 people who shaved their heads like the "commandos" of the old army, most of them had curly hairstyles with large backs, and some people had paper earrings attached to their left ears.Since it was cold, few people were wearing their favorite Hawaiian shirts, blouses, all were wearing special combat uniforms, leather jackets, suga clips (embroidered jackets favored by GIs in Yokosuka), jeans, plastic sandals, worn out heels Slip-on shoes for ... and so on.Almost all of them appeared to be young people under the age of 20, and many did not wear helmets, just with towels tied on their foreheads.There are also quite a few people wearing sunglasses with a 45-degree angle and mouth emerald.

At 10 o'clock in the evening, the journey was finally decided.The "special attack team" on two-wheeled motorcycles takes the lead.All the motorcycles started together, and the roar was deafening.The gas discharged from the exhaust pipe through the muffler is fired at the same time as a machine gun.The two-wheeled motorcycle team played electronic music along the way and galloped away briskly.Followed by cars, those passing cars were scared and hid on the side of the road, waiting for the convoy to set off. They haven't been running for a long time, as if venting their long-term suppressed emotions at once, they moved forward at full speed from the first start.They are usually enclosed in the wall, as if they were dead.Now, with the roar of the chug, they came back to life again.

Under the strict control of the police and the restriction of the road traffic law, they lost their place of activity, and the pent-up righteous indignation in their hearts could only be slightly soothed in the rock music of the discotheque. However, disco and motorcycles are not the same day.No matter how sweaty you dance in a discotheque, there is absolutely no such tension as when you are riding a motorcycle.Only the roar of motorcycles is really their unforgettable life value.Playing high-speed games desperately can stimulate them to the apex of excitement. "We're still alive!"

"Run, run, run to the endless distance!" "Followers follow me! Blockers kick away!" Along the way, they paid no attention to other honest cars. If any car tried to block them, they took advantage of the loophole to sneak in and give them a hard lesson. As soon as he entered the expressway, Sawai went to the front to give instructions.Behind him, the headlights are like thousands of lights emitting a river of light, overflowing with power, full of fragile and short-lived beauty.This beauty lifts their spirits. This is a beauty that absolutely cannot be produced by riding a motorcycle alone.No matter how fast you run, no matter how skillful you are, there is only the dark night behind the lonely driver.A river of light flows on the highway, and companions are needed.Now, the companions are back.

The festival of youth that had been suppressed for a long time by the new traffic control law started again.The current system regards this kind of festival and this kind of beauty as an anti-social crime.But now, in this short period of time, they undoubtedly took the ritual ceremony back into their own hands. It was a short-lived carnival through the police crackdown.They were filled with joyful emotions. The "special attack team" leads the way ahead to ensure that the road is clear and unobstructed.They are always at the front, defending the cars of their companions.If they encounter provocations from the opposite side, they will charge forward; if they encounter the police chasing and intercepting them, they will use their bodies as shields to protect the safety of the entire convoy.This is their life value.They are the "soldier ants" of the flying caravan.

The motorbike team was speeding like a snake, the wheels rubbed against the dark road and sparks flew, and the backfire like firecrackers tore in the ears.The interviewing reporter sat on the door of the car and leaned out the window.Some people were jolted out of their cars on the road and fell to their deaths.So this kind of reporter who interviews with the flying team must have the ability of acrobats. The distance between the left and right cars is only 60 to 70 centimeters. In this super-intensive speeding, if one car breaks down, it will affect many cars.So, it's all a death game.However, this death game is an indispensable "form" of the festival.

Radio transceivers constantly report accurately on police movements and the respective positions of all police cars. "Attention everyone, the policemen of the traffic mobile team are all very skilled." Sawai warned everyone while listening to the radio communication between the police. ——Patrol cars in Tokyo, the metropolitan city, and the three neighboring counties contacted urgently. The 38-year-old suspect Kume Yukisuke, who was killed in the case of the female bar owner in the apartment in the Ikebukuro area, may drive away.The model is MKⅡGSS from T company, metal roof, 4 doors, body color is metallic gray, brand Shinagawa 56-23-4X, fellow car passenger Kajigi Eriko, 23 years old, tavern waiter, fair skin, coquettish female.Anyone who finds the car shall be arrested immediately and brought back to the police station.

Mio, who was sitting in the same car with Sawai, became nervous all of a sudden when she heard the contact on the police radio.Sawai keenly sensed Mio's emotions and asked, "What's the matter with you?" "The police radio contact just now said that they are hunting for the suspect who killed Eiko Fujishiro." "Is it your lover?" "Yes. Speaking of the bar hostess in Ikebukuro, yes." "You said you ran away by car?" "T company's MKⅡGSS, metal roof, 4 doors, body color is metallic gray, and a young woman." "Isn't this car in front?"

Sanwei opened his eyes and looked forward, only to see the same car in the lane they were about to overtake.A young woman sat in the passenger seat.Akira Sawai kept sending out the overtaking signal lights, but the other party had no intention of giving way.Not only that, but even speed up, and put on an attitude of naked confrontation that if you have the ability, you can surpass it. "Really?" Mio felt that it couldn't be such a coincidence, but he still confirmed the other party's license plate number: "Shinagawa 56-23-4X. That's it!" "It's exactly the same. This kid has been domineering, and I wanted to show him some color. If this bastard does something bad to your lover, then you won't be polite."

Sawai grinned horribly with the corners of his mouth twisted.It was his customary expression ready for action.He signaled to his fellows.The wolves found their prey on the highway.The motorcycles they are driving still have plenty of energy and are now ready to go crazy at the limit speed. Kume's car began to distance itself in front of "Fengshen" as if mocking him.The GSS he drives has excellent racing performance and should be equipped with a dual camshaft DOHC 140 horsepower engine.Believing in the power of this excellent machine, Kume boldly challenged Fengshen.Since he was all wanted by the police on suspicion of murder, the little hairy kids in the speeding convoy naturally didn't take them seriously.

However, ordinary cars dared to challenge the flying team, which greatly trampled on their self-esteem and pride.The highway is their "sacred place", their territory.If their holy places were violated and they swallowed it, they completely lost their reason for existence. Sawai watched Kume's MKII move away with a blank expression.The companions can't wait to do it, but Sawai stops them, thinking that the time has not come. When the distance between the two sides reached about 300 meters, Sawai let go of the reins holding his companions.They rushed out like raging horses.All the cars have been modified repeatedly and are almost indistinguishable from the real racing cars.These monster-like cars scrambled to catch up. However, Kume's car was unafraid and still ran ahead.The speeding team did not give an inch and pressed every step of the way.Kume probably felt that the people behind him were quite skilled.All of them were courageous Fengshen warriors chasing each other on monster-like motorcycles, but they still failed to capture each other.The speed of the vehicle has reached 160 kilometers per hour. The 3-lane highway turns into a silver torrent.Due to high-speed driving, the field of vision is obviously narrowed, and the night sky and the surrounding scenery are twisted together like the water flowing in the waterfall.The speedometer needle continued to rise.The speed of human games is gradually entering the field of speed that can only be manipulated by gods or madmen.The members of Fengshen are all speed madmen, and Kume, who is fighting against them, has also gone crazy. In this high-speed driving, even a slight mistake will cause the car to lose control.Suddenly, Kume's car's tail lights flashed to indicate the brakes.The motorcycle behind screamed, and white smoke violently sprayed on the road.One of them turned sideways.The cars huddled together, and although they avoided a collision in the nick of time, their speed slowed down. Looking at the tail lights of Kume's car again, it has already gone away leisurely.He didn't intend to brake at all, but deliberately flashed the brake tail lights in order to stop the following car.While it's a nasty little trick, it does work in highway "hide and seek." "Bastard! You underestimate us." Fengshen, who was played by Kume, was so angry that his seven orifices were filled with smoke.They reorganized their team, and following the roar of the engine, they rushed out of the string like arrows, forcibly increasing the speed of the car, and Xingchi chased away in a flash. Kume slowed his speed from 180 km/h to 150 km/h and seemed to be waiting for them to catch up. If he is a prisoner, in his eyes, Fengshen is just a young child who likes to play hide-and-seek on the highway. A car of Fengshen is about to run parallel with Kume's car.At that moment, Kume's car approached the motorcycle lane.Fengshen hurriedly dodged, but did not dodge, only heard the car screaming and flying.The car behind hit it. Fengshen's group of desperadoes who are fearless and fearless also know that the other party is definitely not an idle person.Fengshen had suffered twice, and was even more furious. He had never been fooled by Xiaoche so freely before. After Kume overturned a motorcycle of Fengshen, relying on the excellent performance of the engine, he ran away like a meteor at full power. "Can't let it get away!" If the other party was allowed to escape, Fengshen would lose face completely.This stigma spreads instantly among other racing teams.Fengshen is the "hard-liner" in the speeding team, but he was tricked by ordinary cars and became everyone's laughing stock.In that case, the signboard "Fengshen" had to be removed. A huge obstacle appeared in front of Kume's car. 3 large long-distance transport trucks walk side by side.No matter how much you honk, the other party ignores you.Now, Kume's car is a shackle.However, he approached the trucks fearlessly and got in between them.At the moment when the Fengshen members who were chasing him gasped nervously, Kume's car had already passed through the "canyon" formed by the two trucks. The members of the Fengshen were stunned, seeing the figure of the car that was about to disappear in front of them, and immediately pointed the front of the car at the "canyon", ready to rush over. "not like this!" Sawai's car appeared in the front at the critical moment and stopped everyone. "It's all right. Look!" The truck narrowed the distance between the two vehicles in front of Fengshen.But if he didn't get between the trucks, Kume's car would have escaped without a trace. At this time, Sawai had a plan.He aimed the noses of the two motorcycles into the gap between the trucks in front, and sure enough the trucks narrowed the distance between them, leaving a fairly wide space in the left lane.Sawai stepped on the accelerator with one foot and flew away.The truck only looked at the back, and Sawai's car sped past the left like a flash of lightning, leaving the truck driver at a loss. "Bastard, I will never forgive you!" All the highly skilled subordinates are being tricked by Kume, and Sawai is furious.He stepped on the accelerator even harder, mobilizing the full power of the engine, and pushed his neck and back against the backrest to accelerate crazily. Sawai caught the light of Kume's tail lights that could disappear into the darkness at any moment.The gaze seemed to be a finger inserted into the collar of Kume who was about to flee. If the opponent's car is a DOHC 4-cylinder 140-horsepower engine, then Sawai has adjusted his own 145-horsepower engine of the same model to 180 horsepower.And throw away all the decorations to reduce the weight of the body. Sawai opened up the accelerator, and the performance of the car, which was improved to the limit, and the superb technology of the driver were completely integrated in high-speed driving, playing wonderful music.This is a beautiful harmony that contains death. The "fingers" that were inserted into Kume's collar let go two or three times, but finally grasped tightly.Sawai relied on the car's superior performance to catch up in a straight line.Kume probably judged that he couldn't get rid of it, so he slowed down the speed of the car a little.Sawai's car was right next to Kume's.Kume entered the normal driving lane and gave way to the overtaking lane that he had been monopolizing all along.On the surface, it seems to mean unconditional surrender. Sawai didn't slow down, and drove directly into the lane that Kume gave up.The other party aimed at this moment, suddenly turned the steering wheel to the right, and the whole body of the car was forced to come over. However, Sawai had already anticipated his move and was fully prepared.This is the method he used just now. "You miscalculated!" Sawai stepped on the accelerator hard, the engine roared, and he rushed in front of Kume's car.If the two cars collide, Sawai's lightweight car will definitely be knocked into the air. Kume thought that this move was very sure, but Sawai avoided it in the slightest.Kume's car crashes and loses Pingjie.It seems that Sawai's technology and car performance are better than Kume's trick. Kume's car started to panic.Sawai stepped on the brake pedal lightly in front of it, but he didn't mean to brake to stop.Kume watched Sawai's car with the tail lights flashing in front of him, feeling more and more panicked, and hurriedly stepped on the brakes.Even a driver as skilled as Kume can make such unwarranted mistakes.Probably because of the loss of self-confidence after the vicious failure of the attack that must kill the opponent. Due to sudden braking, the center of gravity of the car moves forward, and the rear wheel produces a brake safety lock phenomenon.Although the wheels stop turning, the wheels lose grounding force, and the road surface becomes as slippery as a roller skating rink.The locked wheels began to slide, the direction was out of control, and only the sound of screaming was heard rushing into the darkness with a puff of white smoke.The screams of the car also carried the screams of people. Sawai treated him in the same way as he did, retaliated and punished him in the same way that Kume had dealt with his accomplices just now. When Kume was about to fall into the arms of death, he miraculously survived.He unconsciously switched to another pedal to unlock the wheel lock, and fortunately there was no car coming up at this moment. Both Kume and the woman in the car suffered only a little scratches, but he had completely lost the strength to continue driving, and he was at a loss.At this time, the highway patrol police car arrived and arrested them. At this time, the Fengshen members had all left far away.Neither the police nor Kume understand the connection of Kenji Mio, the stalking Fengshen member and Sawai's friend, to the case. After Kume Yuksuke was arrested, he completely lost the strength to resist.His confession is roughly the same as that of Tabei.Regarding the issue of the forest land in the Somu City area where Fujishiro Eiko's body was buried, he said: "This piece of land was purchased at 5,000 yen per ping. At that time, I didn't know that the judicial scrivener known as the local living dictionary had been bought by the seller. He said that the woodland next to it was very promising, and the forest was also lush. It was absolutely suitable to buy. .Actually, that piece of northern slope doesn’t even grow grass well. Since I bought it, it doesn’t work to be angry, so let’s use it as a cemetery.” According to Kume Wadabei's confession, on the morning of December 11, with the assistance of the Sōbu Police Department, a search was carried out in the mountains and forests of Sōbu City, Saitama Prefecture. Kume and Tabei brought the police to the scene, but since they committed the crime in the middle of the night and nearly nine months ago, they cannot remember the exact location.According to their memory, the police conducted a careful and meticulous search around.At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, a body was finally found about 70 cm below the weeds about 50 meters north of the location Kume remembered.The corpse is completely naked, with the right hand below and the left hand above, crossed on the chest.Both knees were forcibly bent, and the head was stuffed between the knees.The front of the thigh is against the abdomen, and the back of the calf is attached to the back of the thigh.That is to say, the pit dug was very small, and the corpses were forced into it. The abdominal muscles of the corpse have been waxed to a considerable extent, and the back has been mummified.The body was immediately sent to the forensic science classroom of Musashino University for an autopsy. Due to the serious decay of the body, the cause of death could not be determined. About 6 months to 1 year after death, no thyroid cartilage or hyoid bone fractures, which are one of the characteristics of strangulation with a rope or hand, were found.However, it is unbelievable that the forensic doctor obtained the palm print of the deceased's right hand, which was exactly the same as that of Fujishiro Eiko. The handprint left at her alma mater when she graduated from high school identified the identity of Fujishiro Eiko. Sanwei was walking on the sidewalk when a car on the road honked its horn several times.This somewhat familiar car approached him. "Three tails." A young man greeted him with a smile on his face from the driver's seat.Sanwei's face was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while. "Oh, you forgot?" the other party said. The young man quickly got out of the car and stood in front of Sanwei.He was wearing a suit that looked like it was newly made, and he looked like a young company employee. "Yeah, it's you!" Sanwei exclaimed in surprise. "I'm Sawai. Long time no see." "You've changed so much I can't even recognize you. It's surprising, I didn't expect it." Mio looked at Sawai's attire again.The hair is also long, and it is combed separately.The language of speech is also the same as that of ordinary people.Not only the costumes, words and deeds, but even the car has changed from the original "monster" to an ordinary shape.No matter how you look at him, he is a hard-working young employee, and it is absolutely impossible to imagine that he was originally the head of a "hard-line" flying team Fengshen Society. "I'm already working. Although my father entrusted me with a small and medium-sized enterprise, he trusts me and entrusts me with everything, so I have a job to do. Now I'm going to ask for orders from old customers." Sawai showed his snow-white teeth and said comfortably laugh it out. "What about Fengshen?" "Oh, self-disbanded. It was a youth carnival, and there was always an end. Most of the companions went to school or worked." Mio suddenly remembered what Sawai said in the disco in Roppongi: "Can you imagine me wearing a suit and going to the company on time?" Mio looked at Sawai in front of him, his suit and leather shoes and Fengshen The image of the times did not match. Mitsuo stood there in surprise.Sawai skillfully took out a business card from his pocket. "This is my company. Come over if you have time. Of course, I am not in the position to ask you to take care of the loan. Then I will leave. After all, Jing is a novice, so I can't waste time." Sawai naturally stuffed the business card into Sano's hand, then returned to the car, leaving behind a series of sharp roars, the car drove into the middle lane.It seems that only the engine is still something from the Fengshen era.Sawai's car was immediately submerged in the flood water. "The carnival of youth..." Mio muttered to himself in the direction Sawai left.The high school days I spent with Fujishiro Eiko may also be the carnival of youth.After the carnival, all that's left is loneliness.Only the handprints of my classmates in the corner of the campus are still the memory of the carnival. Only a few years after leaving his alma mater, the owner of a handprint is no longer in this world.This is a cruel parting.If we track down the whereabouts of the fingerprint owners one by one, maybe some people have already left this world. Three tails shook his head.Eiko Fujishiro no longer returns.If she is the three-tailed youth festival, then the three-tailed festival has also ended. Mio is still very young.There will probably be another festival in the future.But, after all, that is a "other" holiday.A festival has indeed come to an end. The song that everyone sang at the graduation ceremony rang in Sanwei's ear.The melody echoed in his heart. . At that time, the students sang this song with the feeling of reluctance to part with the high school days when they spent a beautiful youth together. Today, a classmate Fujishiro Eiko who sang together has died.Even if the classmates reunite, they can't reproduce the old scene. As the song sings, "Now we are no longer in love with each other". The bitter cold wind of the real society has blown the classmates who were so close back then to pieces, leaving Liu far apart. "I can't do that either." Mio picked up the briefcase.Today I plan to visit 50 customers, and the task is less than half completed, and the dividend date is approaching. The voice of the students singing in unison disappeared from San's ears. (full text)
