Chapter 31 It's Just... It's Sudden

Iwamoto leaned against the shadow in the corner, staring fiercely at Shirokuma Cafe.

It was the woman here who not only made his successful mission a failure, but cost him.

Thinking of the escape from the police car just now, Iwamoto couldn't help but have lingering fears.

If it hadn't cost a lot of money to borrow the power of 'that'.

He must have been in jail by now.

Do not!

It's an intensive ICU.

Kill this woman first!

Then, kill that girl again!

These two people can't let go no matter what!

However, that girl...

Thinking of Saakura's punch, the killer was a little terrified.

Such a punch is beyond common sense.

What kind of person would someone with such a punch be?

The answer is self-evident.

the world!

He, who is wandering on the periphery of the inner world, is naturally impossible to shoot directly.

Therefore, he chose Hui Lijing.

In his opinion, Hui Lijing is the best soft persimmon.

jingle!

The doorbell rang in the distance.

A bald-headed old man with a kind face walked out.

This old man, Iwamoto just met.

It seems to be the grandfather of one of the children in the group just now.

In short, an irrelevant person.

therefore,

Iwamoto just glanced at it and stopped paying attention.

What he cares more about is the timing of killing Hui Lijing.

And while Iwamoto was waiting, the bald old man came over.

Seeing this scene, Iwamoto frowned.

Any plan, the most worry is the accident.

Do you want to kill this old man?

will cause some trouble.

But as long as I handle it well enough, it's fine.

After all, this old man looks a bit like Alzheimer's.

Thinking of this, Iwamoto immediately rushed to the bald old man after confirming that there was no one around.

"If you want to blame it, blame your bad life!"

"go to hell!"

Iwamoto muttered in a low voice, raised his right hand high, and then slashed down heavily.

He is the most professionally trained killer.

A hand knife can easily chop five bricks.

Don't say that such a hand knife is an old man.

Even a middle-aged man can't bear it as long as he is hit by it.

The bald old man didn't seem to react at all.

With a smile on his face.

It was only when the hand knife was about to land on the top of his head that he tilted his head.

Snapped!

The knife smashed into the shoulder of the bald old man.

After the crisp sound, it was... severe pain!

Click, click!

The sound of bones breaking came from the shoulder that was in contact with the bald old man. Iwamoto was stunned for a moment, and then the pain spread, and the snot and tears flowed uncontrollably.

"How, how?"

Iwamoto murmured subconsciously.

His eyes wandered a little.

It seems impossible to accept reality.

The bald old man was still smiling.

Appears to be extremely 'nuclear'.

Under Iwamoto's attention, the bald old man also raised his right arm.

Then, drop it.

boom!

In an extremely dull sound.

Iwamoto disappeared in place.

Or, to be more precise... smash!

turned into powder.

After the evening wind blows, everything goes with the wind.

Everything has not changed.

The only thing that changed was Iwamoto.

The bald old man seemed to have done something very ordinary, so he turned his back and walked slowly towards the White Bear Cafe.

"Cherry, where's Grandpa's pudding?"

"Huh? Are you all finished?"

"Can I buy another one for grandpa?"

The bald-headed old man smiled and took Cherry's hand, saying goodbye to Hui Lijing.

"This, please accept it."

Hui Lijing quickly ran out of the bar and handed a packaged pudding to the old man.

"Thank you for always bringing cherries here."

"Perhaps for you, this is just an unintentional move, but it is because of your appearance that I am reminded of my original dream."

"I can't do more for you, but please take this pudding."

Hui Lijing said sincerely.

Because what Hui Lijing said was true.

After becoming a detective, Hui Lijing almost forgot her dream of becoming a barista.

It wasn't until after working part-time in her sister's shop that Hui Lijing accidentally met Cherry and the other party's grandfather one afternoon before she gradually responded to her original dream.

‘The real power of human beings is self-change! ’

‘And if you want to change, you need to persevere! ’

'Remember the original dream! ’

'That's the source of your motivation! ’

'If you forget it, then stop and think back to the days when you did 100 push-ups, 100 squats, 100 sit-ups every day, and the hardships of running 10 kilometers in order to become your dream! ’

'At this time, you will have the iron will of not turning on the air conditioner in summer and winter! ’

'Maybe it was painful to death at the beginning, and I wanted to take a day off, but for my dream, no matter how painful it is, I have to persevere, even if I train every day until I vomit blood, even if my legs are too heavy to move, I will continue to squat, even if my arms are too heavy. I had to keep doing push-ups even after crunching. After a year and a half, I noticed a change in my body. I became bald, and I became stronger. That is to say: I have to exercise myself desperately with all my hair at the cost of going bald. It's the only secret to being strong! ’

This is what Grandpa Cherry and Cherry said.

Hui Lijing overheard it.

Then, such words reminded her of her original dream.

Although in the eyes of Cherry and the surrounding children, it is so ridiculous.

But she really thought of her original dream because of such words.

So, she is very grateful to Cherry's grandfather.

And this time, it's to express my gratitude.

"is that so?"

Cherry's grandfather scratched his bald head and took the pudding with a smile, just like when the ordinary old man on the road received the thank you gift, there was no difference.

All so happy.

"How could someone recall their original dream because of Grandpa?"

Cherry was surprised.

"Of course, grandpa back then..."

"But it's very strong!"

"You can knock down a monster with one punch!"

Cherry continued without waiting for Grandpa to finish.

And Cherry's grandfather laughed again.

"Well, Cherry remembers it very clearly."

After complimenting his granddaughter very much, Cherry's grandfather turned around and said to Hui Lijing in a serious tone, "Thank you for your pudding, if you have any trouble in the future, please come to me-some small matter, I can still handle it for you."

Facing the old man's words, Hui Lijing smiled and bowed.

Of course she didn't take it seriously.

However, she felt the kindness of the old man.

It is enough to have such kindness.

"thanks."

Hui Lijing thanks again.

Watching Cherry and Grandpa leave.

jingle!

The wind chime in front of the door rang again.

Ryosuke and Urashima rushed in with the wind.

After seeing Hui Lijing with a stunned face, the two were relieved at the same time.

"What's wrong?"

Hui Lijing was startled.

"Hui Lijing, it's really good that you're okay!"

"That bastard Iwamoto ran away!"

Urashima spoke very quickly.

"Iwamoto?"

Hui Lijing frowned.

"It's the murderer who poisoned the organizer of the Big Stomach King Competition in 'Gourmet Food' just now..."

"Do you have a quiet private room here?"

"Where's Jason?"

Ryosuke interrupted Urashima's words.

"some."

"Jason is upstairs, do I need to call him?"

Hui Lijing asked.

"It's troublesome."

Ryosuke said apologetically.

...

About two minutes later, Jason was sitting in the private room of the White Bear Cafe.

This is a small private room. The decoration and layout are consistent with the style of the hall. They all belong to the kind of delicate and a little warm feeling. There is a round table and a circular sofa built around the round table.

A wooden chandelier hangs from the ceiling.

The table was lit with aromatherapy.

A touch of sandalwood and green grass wafts along with the green smoke.

"This is that... my sister's custom-made incense is very popular with young people."

Hui Lijing said.

"felt it."

"It's a good place for young people to come here."

"Especially boys and girls after school."

Ryosuke touched his pocket while talking, and then he frowned.

"Urashima go buy me a pack of cigarettes."

Ryosuke ordered.

"Yes, Chief Ryosuke."

The young Urashima immediately walked outside.

Jason gestured at Hui Lijing.

The latter immediately turned around and walked out of the private room.

"Those bastards did it again!"

"Ignore the law!"

"The 'criminal' is released again!"

After only Jason and himself were left, the middle-aged criminal policeman did not hide his anger.

His eyes were red, he roared, his fists clenched even more.

Jason remained silent.

He understood where Ryosuke's anger came from at this time.

In addition to his hatred for this kind of behavior, because Ryosuke thinks he has become an agent of 'Search Zero', the forces hidden behind the scenes will be somewhat restrained.

But who knows, the other party didn't do that.

In fact, he acted without even the slightest hesitation.

This was undoubtedly a slap on the face of Ryosuke.

This made Ryosuke extremely angry.

Not incompetent fury!

Because, this incident also made Ryosuke wake up instantly.

He's so bad!

Such a gap makes the behind-the-scenes forces act recklessly.

"I need you to do me a favor."

Ryosuke opened his mouth.

"Say."

With the previous communication, Jason did not refuse, and said directly.

"I'm going to search for a guy tonight, and I need you to cover me."

"This guy is one of my biggest suspects."

"If this incident under the rock is related to him, he will definitely show his flaws tonight."

Ryosuke said.

"Can."

"In the evening, Master Tong Shousi invited me to dinner."

"You can go with you, and find a chance to leave later."

Jason nodded.

He didn't ask what the flaw was.

This made Ryosuke slightly relieved.

Because there are some things that Ryosuke can't say.

But Jason has helped him so calmly, he doesn't say anything, isn't it a bit too much?

Suddenly, Ryosuke was caught in that dilemma again.

As Jason said, Ryosuke is such a hypocritical person.

Not the bad guy.

Just sometimes, it's really awkward.

After struggling for a few seconds, Ryosuke gritted his teeth.

"Jason, I want you to keep what I say to you in secret."

After Ryosuke finished speaking, he looked at Jason with almost pleading eyes.

"it is good."

Jason nodded again.

"This guy was my partner for a while, and then we went our separate ways because of some ideas. He was a nice guy before, but he...needs money."

Ryosuke lowered his voice and said.

"Black police?"

Jason asked quietly.

There are good people and bad people in the world.

It's not about career.

Any profession is a medium.

In the end, it all depends on the person.

So, Jason is not surprised.

After all, in an environment like the City That Never Sleeps, one or two good people will rarely appear.

Not to mention the world in front of the copy.

"Um."

"I'll talk to him."

"He probably knows something."

While talking, Ryosuke took out his pocket again.

A pack of cigarettes was taken out, but unfortunately there was really no cigarette inside.

The middle-aged detective threw the cigarette case on the table.

"Why didn't Urashima come back?"

Ryosuke muttered.

Then, footsteps came from outside the box.

Urashima is back.

"Sir Ryosuke, your cigarette."

"It's the Dragon Palace, right?"

Urashima handed Ryosuke the cigarette with "Dragon Palace" written on it.

"Thanks."

Ryosuke said, tore open the package and ordered it on his own.

Jason's eyes swept across the word "Dragon Palace" on the cigarette case.

Then, contact the surname "Urashima".

Involuntarily, he thought of something.

"Urashima, have you ever been a fisherman?"

Jason asked.

"Fisherman?"

Urashima was stunned for a moment, he was really caught by Jason's sudden question, but the young man thought back very seriously for a moment, and finally, in an uncertain tone, said: "I have never been a fisherman. , However, I vaguely remember that my grandfather once said to me when I was a child, as if his grandfather was a fisherman, or a very powerful kind, I can't remember the specifics."

Fisherman!

Urashima!

Dragon Palace!

Jason's mouth secreted a lot of saliva almost subconsciously.

He restrained himself from making strange noises, and said in a very calm tone, "If possible, please Urashima ask your grandfather about your ancestors having a very powerful fisherman."

"it is good!"

"I'm going to call now!"

Urashima was still confused.

However, in the face of Jason's request, the young man did not refuse at all.

Jason had already convinced the young man with his strength.

As Jason looked at Urashima's back, his eyes were full of brilliance.

Originally it was just a weed on the side of the road.

But inadvertently moved the weeds.

But the gold bricks below were exposed.

It's...it's really sudden.

But Jason was overjoyed.

If Urashima's grandfather is really the fisherman, a table of 'heavy delicacies' seems to be placed in front of him.

"What's wrong?"

Ryosuke saw Jason's strangeness and immediately asked.

"I found something very interesting."

Jason said this, but his eyes looked in the direction of the door again.

Outside the cafe, the doorbell rang.

Someone else came.
