Chapter 823 Windfall(1/2)
Several people came to the living room and sat down on the sofa.
Matsumoto Ryohei wanted to make tea, but Qin Zhibo waved his hand and said that time was tight and there was no need.
"But making tea for guests you meet for the first time is the most basic etiquette."
When Matsumoto Ryohei said this, he looked at Minase Yomu, but Minase Yomu avoided his eyes.
Qin Zhibo also glanced at the girl, turned around and said, "Don't worry, she will be your regular customer from now on."
Next, Qin Zhibo explained the purpose of his visit, but because the incident was a bit complicated, he did not explain the whole story clearly.
A minute later, Matsumoto Ryohei nodded with general understanding.
"In other words, this girl is being threatened by bad guys. You want her to stay with me temporarily, right?"
Qin Zhibo: "Yes, can you help me with this?"
Matsumoto Ryohei thought about it for a moment and replied after a few seconds, "Yes, yes, but can you rest assured that she is here with me?"
There was something in Matsumoto Ryohei's words. Qin Zhibo knew what it meant and whispered back: "Of course you can rest assured, she doesn't have much flesh on her body."
There is no water in this statement. You can tell whether it is true or false by putting it on a scale.
However, Qin Zhibo didn't know that since Matsumoto Ryohei learned about the existence of prions, he has basically carefully selected ingredients and the era of winning by quantity has long passed.
This sentence actually aroused his curiosity?
Matsumoto Ryohei turned his head and looked at the girl up and down, as if he was staring at a fine piece of steak.
Minase Youmeng swallowed nervously, reached out and tugged on Qin Zhibo's sleeve, and whispered: "Uncle, I feel a little scary here. Can you not be here?"
"No." Qin Zhibo replied decisively.
"But I felt that the way the uncle looked at me seemed wrong. He seemed to be looking at a piece of cake."
Qin Zhibo was a little surprised. Minase Youmeng was really good at reading people, and he could even tell it on the cake.
However, he still patted the girl on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, he thinks everyone is like this, and this is already the most suitable place for you."
What Qin Zhibo said is quite true, because in this world, people who live in big houses in the suburbs of Tokyo are somewhat mentally ill.
A rich and unkind president, a narcissistic middle-class witch who talks to the crystal ball all day long
Mi-GO, who performs ventriloquism in human skin, is a mistress who loves to read "pornographic books".
There is also the old lady who had plastic surgery and killed all the people in her house just to go up to the tower and see the scenery.
Look, as a pica, Matsumoto Ryohei has no other shortcomings except having no pleasure in "meat".
Seeing that his words still couldn't make the girl feel relieved, Qin Zhibo could only show his ultimate killing move.
"By the way, haven't you had dinner yet?"
Qin Zhibo turned his head and greeted: "Uncle Ba, show her your hand!"
Half an hour later.
“It smells so good!”
At the long European-style dining table, Minase Youmeng was performing the famous scene of feasting and eating while cosplaying.
Vegetable salad, honey-glazed steak, and fruit honey pot. It was already past dinner time, and Matsumoto Ryohei couldn't make too elaborate dishes, so he simply dealt with seven plates.
People say that if you want to capture a man's heart, you must first capture his stomach, but if you replace the man with a girl, it's actually the same thing.
With the Law of Moka in mind, Minase Youmeng immediately expressed his willingness to stay, as long as he was given food every day.
Matsumoto Ryohei narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile: "I dare not say anything else here, but there is enough food."
"Yeah~" Minase Yomu made a victory gesture.
Before leaving, Qin Zhibo called Matsumoto Ryohei aside and warned: "Don't feed her strange things."
"And try not to irritate her emotionally. This girl's identity may be unusual."
If the investigation system cannot detect the existence, can it be an ordinary person?
Qin Zhibo made this suggestion for the sake of the two of them.
Matsumoto Ryohei nodded and accepted the suggestion, "I will try my best to do it."
"By the way, how is the research on that Kaitou boy's painting going?"
Previously, under the guidance of Qin Zhibo, Kuroba Kaito scanned his father's portrait under the art museum's dedicated art X-ray scanner, and obtained a picture-in-picture with a "Kobold" painting.
Matsumoto Ryohei praised it on the spot as a beautiful piece of art and wanted to bid for it.
But how could Kuroba Kaito sell the portrait left to him by his father, so the matter was settled.
However, Matsumoto Ryohei was still obsessed with that painting and believed that it was impossible for an artist to paint just one painting of such a "trend and avant-garde" subject.
Qin Zhibo shook his head, "I don't know how his research is going. I'll ask you when I meet him someday."
"gone."
Qin Zhibo waved his hands casually, turned around and walked towards his Mustang convertible.
The next day, it was another sunny morning.
Qin Zhibo woke up later than usual, it was already eight o'clock in the morning.
First, he went to the refrigerator, picked out the food that could be used for breakfast, then turned on the TV, sat on the boss's chair, chewed the food, and watched the morning news.
On the TV screen, the cold and charming Mizuno Reina looked solemn as she announced the number of abnormal deaths in the Tokyo area yesterday.
Since Conan did not create any murders yesterday, Yoneka Town's record was not outstanding, that is, there were only four ordinary murder cases.
After reporting the daily cases, Mizuno Reina released information about a missing person.
"A few days ago, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department issued a missing person notice. The missing person was a criminal police officer from the Metropolitan Police Department's Search Section."
"Name is Chiba Kazunobu, male, age 24, height 174 centimeters, short black hair, slightly chubby, and fair skin."
"The missing person was last seen in Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo. When he was lost, he was wearing a light blue shirt, brown loose trousers and Masked Superman slippers."
"Anyone with information please contact Police Officer Takagi at phone number 00813-XXXX."
Seeing this news, Qin Zhibo fell silent.
If it were ordinary people, they would definitely be able to complain after seeing this news. What kind of world is this? Even the police can disappear.
What the hell is wrong with letting the police delay catching a criminal and instead end up losing him?
However, as an insider, Qin Zhibo believes that Chiba Kazunobu is really not to blame for this incident.
After all, the other party is an existence beyond the known dimensions of mankind. It is a spiritual life form that is visible and intangible, and is beyond the knowledge of the police.
However, the police will not easily publish missing persons notices for police officers on public platforms. Now that they have done so, it can only be said that "Chiba" has indeed blended into the crowd.
"Is." Qin Zhibo murmured.
The rest of the news was lackluster. Qin Zhibo looked at the time in the lower right corner, noticed that today was Saturday, and turned off the TV.
Turning on the computer, Qin Zhibo clicked on the Nine Angels website in the website favorites and entered the administrator dialogue page.
Since joining the black organization, the Nine Angels Organization has almost never issued tasks to itself. This should be the arrangement of the A-level agent, Yasuharu Haneda.
Although there are fewer channels for making money, it is still possible to use this channel to help yourself complete some surveys.
Qin Zhibo quickly tapped the keyboard and entered his request.
[Qin: I need to know something here.]
After waiting for a minute, news came from the other side.
[Guan: Please tell me.]
[Qin: Are there any new organizations that have emerged in Tokyo recently? Similar to some kind of sect]
Ten seconds later, the administrator responded.
[Guan: No. Have you got any news? 】
[Qin: It’s just some random conjecture. These people seem to have some people in rooms 502 and 305 of Mihua’s Didan High School and Jiudaomen Apartment.]
[Guan: I will send someone to investigate.]
In just a few lines, the two of them finished communicating.
Although the communication was anonymous, Qin Zhibo guessed that this very capable and efficient communication method should be Haneda Yasuharu.
As old friends who had a party with the original owner in Hawaii seventeen years ago, the two now have basically no personal communication except for work within the organization.
But this just goes with Qin Zhibo's wishes.
Otherwise, wouldn't it be awkward if everyone sat together and talked about past events, but acted like they had no idea at all?
Eh?
Thinking of this, Qin Zhibo suddenly had an idea and formed a hypothesis in his mind.
He traveled through time and possessed the body of the original owner "Qin Zhibo", became the current Qin Zhibo, and inherited the detective agency.
And "Iss" parasitized into Chiba Kazunobu's body and became the current "Chiba Kazunobu", becoming a lost person.
