Chapter 1195 "Chiba"(1/2)

Mihua Department Store, sixth floor.

Qin Zhibo stood next to the escalator and looked around.

This is the highest floor of the Mihua Department Store, and its business items are household appliances.

Since the bomb was found on the third floor, it is the farthest place from the third floor in the entire building, and many customers choose to wait here.

Also includes "Chiba".

Qin Zhibo ignored the strange looks from passers-by and looked for "Qianye" between the floors.

At the same time, a handsome and thin man in a suit was in front of a counter selling TVs, chatting with the clerk standing behind the counter.

"In other words, you are used to this situation?"

"Of course~"

The clerk looked around, then mysteriously approached the man and whispered: "Actually, there was a murder case in the underground garage of our mall before~"

"Oh? It's so scary..." The man's eyes were thoughtful.

"Yeah." The clerk nodded, "The boss doesn't allow us to mention this matter anymore, and he also installed surveillance cameras in the underground garage."

"Well, since you are so experienced, look at this incident..." The man humbly asked for advice.

The shop assistant pretended to be indifferent, smiled and waved her hand: "Don't worry, I think it'll be fine~"

"Anyway, it's not the first time I've encountered a bombing case. The last subway line bomb, the last Tokyo Tower bomb, the last Shinkansen bomb... I survived them all!"

"Actually, I'll tell you quietly, even if something happens to me, I'm not afraid. My husband has bought me a personal accident insurance worth 100 million yen~"

The clerk's expression was a little excited, and his eyes were full of happiness.

But the man's face looked a little confused.

"First I need to confirm one thing...what is 'insurance'?"

"Eh?"

At this time, the clerk was a little confused and asked: "Don't you know about insurance? You just spend money to buy insurance from an insurance company. It is usually of no use. If something happens, you can get a huge compensation..."

"The insurance my husband bought for me is amazing. Whether it's a volcano, earthquake, murder, or manslaughter, as long as I die due to accidental injury, it will pay out 100 million!"

"I see..." The man nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "But if something unexpected happened, wouldn't you have already died? Could you be resurrected?"

The clerk said naturally: "How is this possible?!"

The man asked again, "Who should be paid the 100 million yen as compensation?"

The clerk smiled and said, "Of course the compensation will be paid to the beneficiary of the insurance! That is my husband~"

"So that's it." The man said seriously, "That means that as long as you die, your husband will immediately receive 100 million yen and become a rich man?"

Hearing this, the clerk's aunt raised her eyebrows in displeasure.

Although this logic is correct, why is this man's statement so uncomfortable?

But the man didn't care about this. He learned new knowledge and a new way to make a fortune silently in this world.

"Is it okay if I buy a few more accident insurances like this and fill in my own name as the beneficiary of the compensation?" the man asked again.

Shop assistant: "What's the use of filling in your own name? Usually you fill in the names of your relatives..."

The man then asked: "Is it okay to fill in the name of a stranger?"

The clerk's aunt was obviously a little impatient, "How do I know so much? If you want to know, go to the insurance company for consultation!"

"Insurance company?" The man was stunned, "...where are you from?"

The store clerk lost all her patience now, "Customer, this is the counter where I sell TVs. If you don't want to buy a TV, please go somewhere else!"

After saying that, the clerk turned around and went back behind the counter.

But the man was still standing in front of the counter, his expression dull, and he seemed to be silently thinking about something in his heart.

At this moment, the mall announcement sounded from the speakers on the ceiling.

"Dear customers, the bomb crisis has been resolved. We deeply apologize for the inconvenience caused..."

"Now, everyone is asked to evacuate the building in an orderly manner under the command of the staff."

After the broadcast ended, cheers for those who had survived the disaster rang out from all over the mall floor.

The handsome and thin man also stared at the ceiling for a few seconds, then walked towards the stairs.

Behind the counter, the displeasure on the face of the clerk's aunt dissipated a little after watching the man who looked quite good but spoke annoyingly left.

But her face was still full of worries.

Because of the man's words, she discovered a huge beauty point.

That is, my husband gave me an insurance policy with a compensation amount of 100 million yen as a gift for my 15th wedding anniversary. What is there to be happy about?

The beneficiary above is not myself...

As a Mihua person, she has seen many cases of couples killing people to defraud insurance companies. What if this is...

Suspicion is like a seed. Once planted, it will grow and grow in the brain.

"Miyoko, the bomb incident seems to have been resolved, why do you still look like that?"

Another clerk who went to the restroom came back and saw his colleague looking worried and thought he was still worried about the bomb incident.

The clerk named "Miyoko" stood up, embarrassed to say that she was doubting her husband's loyalty.

"Oops! You don't know that an annoying guest came after you left just now and asked a bunch of random questions..."

"He doesn't even know about insurance!"

"Really? Is there anyone who doesn't know about insurance now?" Another clerk was also quite surprised.

Especially when living in Mihua Town, everyone has insurance. If they don’t have enough insurance, they will be involved in some terrible public crisis.

Just like today.

Just as the two were chatting about the strange things they encountered today, another man intervened in their conversation.

"Hello, may I ask what the man you are talking about looks like?"

The two clerks looked at the new man in confusion. Judging from his face and accent, he turned out to be a foreigner.

"I am tall and thin, but I look quite handsome, but I don't know how to talk..."

When Qin Zhibo heard this, he immediately locked the identity of this person.

It is "Chiba"!

The finding spell just showed that "Qianye" is in this direction, indicating that he just left here.

"May I ask where that person went?"

"It should be heading over there..."

The clerk raised his finger and pointed in a direction.

Qin Zhibo immediately ran in that direction, only to realize that the destination in this direction was the stairs.

Since the bomb crisis has just been lifted and the elevators and escalators have not yet resumed operation, many customers who accumulated on this floor chose to take the stairs.

Among the crowd, Qin Zhibo immediately saw "Qianba" who had just squeezed through the fire door on the floor.

It's him!

Qin Zhibo's pupils shrank suddenly and he stopped him without making a sound, so as not to scare the snake.

He also quickly squeezed past customers and ignored them even if he caused some people's dissatisfaction.

After getting through the fire door on the floor, he stood by the handrail of the stairs and looked down. "Chiba" had already reached the platform of the next floor.

People who heard the announcement from other floors are also gathering towards the stairs, which will only become more and more crowded, making it increasingly difficult to get close to "Chiba".

In desperation, Qin Zhibo climbed over the handrail, and a dark figure jumped down from a high place.

In mid-air, he saw the right opportunity to grab the railing on the next floor, lifted his arms upwards, and jumped back to the platform.

The whole set of actions is like Jet Li's extreme descent downstairs in "The Cradle", as smooth as water.

Qin Zhibo jumped back to the platform and happened to be standing in front of "Qianye" at this moment.

Seeing the strange man suddenly appear in front of her, "Qianye"'s eyes were obviously shocked.

But the next second, Qin Zhibo put his palm on his shoulder.

"Don't move, I'm here to save you..."



On the other side, Mihua Department Store, second floor.

Among the crowd, Judy and Kamel were following the instructions of the mall staff and slowly walking towards the escalator.

After meeting Conan, Mouri Kogoro and others on the third floor, the two planned to leave here first.

After all, they don't want to expose themselves in front of too many people as FBI agents who came to Japan to perform a mission.
To be continued...
