Never Not
Ch. 85: Kei Town

This afternoon, each governor candidate held a press conference to answer allegations circulating on social media. Including Akabane Ayumi herself. Although the mysterious official who helped him had asked to calm down, but the successful team and its supporters asked him to take part in a press conference. He chose one of the luxury hotels as a place to hold reporters' questions and answers.

Kei Ayano attended a press conference held by the only female gubernatorial candidate. He and dozens of journalists have been sitting neatly while waiting for the arrival of Akabane Ayumi.

Akabane Ayumi arrived and went straight to the pulpit. In front of dozens of journalists, he confirmed that he was not related to any issue that was being circulated widely in the community. Even so, he still got a scorn from the reporters.

Akabane Ayumi answered the reporters' questions firmly and straightforwardly. With an elegant smile, he re-exposes his vision of mission for the city of Tokyo in the future.

"Yes, do you have any questions?" ask someone who is accompanying Akabane Ayumi.

Kei Ayano raised her hand.

"Douzo (please)!" The man let Kei speak.

Kei began exercising his right of speech. "Ayano from J-news TV. This is related to the Tokyo project that was held last year, but became a mangkrak because Kensei Abe-san as the winner of the tender at that time was caught by Black Shadow was bribing a prosecutor."

"Please abbreviate your question!" pinta male escort Akabane Ayumi.

"good. From the data I got, you were the attorney of Kensei Abe when he won the tender and managed the project."

Akabane Ayumi instantly cut off Kei's question. "I'm only a temporary legal representative. Did that get me involved with the case?"

"Even I haven't said whether I suspect you are involved or not" Kei agitated with a straight glance towards Akabane Ayumi.

Feeling stunned, Akabane Ayumi again showed her charming smile. "Then, what do you want to ask?"

"In the prosecutor's official report, your name is omitted as the people who are in charge of the project. It happened after Kensei Abe was caught off guard as Black Shadow's fifth target. Even if you're not involved, there's no need to cross off the name as the person who once worked with Kensei Abe, right?How do you explain this?"

Sharp questions posed by Kei, successfully made the face of the female politician gradually became gloomy. While the press conference room became excited because of the information that Kei had just revealed.

Silently for a while, Akabane Ayumi smiled faintly as she said, "About the removal of my name as her legal representative, I don't know."

"really? Right you don't know-know?" search Kei, "in your widely circulated background, mentioned some public officials who use your services as their legal counsel. However, again, there is no record of Kensei Abe there." Kei slammed him back.

"Once again I'm straight, I don't know about it!" said Akabane Ayumi who tried to stay relaxed.

"Oh, then does anyone deliberately eliminate the fact that you have ever participated in the mangkrak project?"

"You can find out directly through the State Financial Agency," replied Akabane Ayumi.

"I'm sorry, I don't think what you're asking has anything to do with the theme of this afternoon's press conference." The man who was accompanying Akabane Ayumi spoke up.

"There certainly is! This could be a yardstick of the imprecision of future leaders."

After being silent for a while, and barely able to smile, Ayumi Akabane once again said, "Because I can be criminally involved, I won't answer this question."

"Well, what kind of rebuttal is that! That means he refused to explain!" The voices of the reporters filled the building.

"Please move on to the next question," cut off the person standing next to Akabane.

Kei raised his hand. "I still have questions."

"Please ask!" said companion Akabane Ayumi regardless of Kei.

Not giving up, Kei still raised his right hand.

"Douzo (please)" said Akabane Ayumi with a hand pointing at Kei.

"Arigatou. Ayano from J-news TV. You were Kensei Abe's attorney during the project, Are you sure you really didn't know about the corruption and embezzlement case that Kensei Abe and his members did?"

"I don't know it" said Akabane Ayumi with a dark face.

People who watched the press conference live are now also in opinion. The pros and cons are happening on social media. Some who are pro, blame Kei as a journalist who deliberately looking for the fault of the female politician. While the counter judge Akabane Ayumi's answer impressed like there was a cover-up.

"Today's press briefing." Akabane immediately got off the pulpit after answering the reporters' questions.

"The damn journalist is the nephew of the Minister of Justice" whispered the man who accompanied him.

"He's from J-news TV, right? If not wrong, the channel's largest shareholder is our supporter. Call her now, and have her sift through the information that will come out of that broadcast!" akabane Ayumi Pinta.

"Good."

In his room, Shohei took off his glasses after watching a live broadcast of Ayumi's Akabane press conference. For a moment, the man's face sank into seriousness as he recalled what Kei had said to him the other day.

The job of journalists is to voice the voices of people who cannot speak in public.

Yesterday, while Kei was busy figuring out who the gubernatorial candidate was related to the official who had been ambushed by Black Shadow, suddenly an anonymous message came in his e-mail. The message contained data proving that Akabane Ayumi was once the legal representative of Kensei Abe. The anonymous message was deliberately sent by Shohei with the aim that Kei raise the information to the public.

Shohei's phone suddenly rang. There was Kei's name on the caller's screen, making Shohei answer immediately.

"Black Shadow riddle, I want to answer it directly to you," Kei said from behind the phone line, "he's Akabane Ayumi, right? But, what does that have to do with the intern nurse's death?"

Shohei smiled slightly. "I was so amazed to see you slam him earlier."

"The response of netizens on social media is very fast."

"It happened." Kei let out a rough breath, then gritted suddenly, "I have an idea. This I can use to persuade my uncle to appear on my show program."

"Try it, good luck!"

Kei met with the television channel's top brass to propose a topic he would raise related to the Tokyo project scandal that helped drag the name of Akabane Ayumi.

"Imagine if we first raise the topic and invite the justice minister and the chief investigator of the Metropolitan police, the audience will certainly be very enthusiastic" Kei said excitedly.

Wry-faced, the top of the television channel then said, "Ayano-san, we can't do that!"

"Why?"

"Understand!"

Kei fell silent. His teeth were grinding against each other. Of course he understood if Akabane Ayumi's side was pressuring the press to get the case back down.

The day after the press conference, the survey showed that Akabane Ayumi's electability as a gubernatorial candidate had decreased by seven percent.

Not staying silent, Akabane Ayumi and her successful team are thinking hard to raise her electability again. Suddenly the woman recalled a main host who had accompanied her drinking at the Starlit nightclub. At the time, the handsome host suggested that he conduct a covert campaign at several universities to take the voices of the students.

"Contact the university rectors of Tokyo, Waseda, and Keio. Tell them I'll be filling out a public lecture at their law school!" the woman's orders.

As planned, three days later, Akabane Ayumi went to Keio University to give a public lecture. Several law students, including Seina and her comrades had gathered in the large hall room. Although as final students, they still want to follow the general course.

"Ah, I really did not expect to come face to face with Akabane Ayumi. I promise I won't sleep while the course is going on" said Seina's best friend who idolized Akabane Ayumi.

"By the way, have you answered the Black Shadow riddle?" ask one of them.

"It has. About when did Black Shadow appear again, huh?" One of her friends looked at her phone and asked Seina, "who do you think Black Shadow is?"

"I'm not sure, but somehow I suspect Akabane Ayumi" Seina replied.

His friends were surprised by the girl's guess. At the same time, Akabane Ayumi entered the room. All students improve their sitting position, preparing to receive courses from women who also work as lawyers.

Akabane Ayumi began to introduce herself and the achievements she had gained during her career. His graceful speech style, made the students gobsmacked with him. For law students, Akabane Ayumi certainly inspires them. Moreover, the woman began to be known to the public when she became a lawyer without pay for cases that need justice.

An hour passed, the room was so quiet, that there was only the sound of Akabane Ayumi as a speaker. The entire student's view is focused on the front screen.

"The main attitude that a lawyer must have is to have courage" said Akabane Ayumi on the sidelines of the material she brought.

The door of the room suddenly opened accompanied by two bodyguards Akabane Ayumi who fell down in the room. Suddenly, the students were surprised to see the two men in black clothes looked moaning with bruises on some parts of their faces.

"What's this?" ask Akabane Ayumi.

Next, a masked man appeared at the door saying, "Gomennasai, I arrived late, Sensei."
