Yokohama Cuisine Event Book

After a series of chaotic battles at high altitude, Tachihara Michizo simply treated the wound on his hand from the coin bomb in the team, and then returned to the Port Mafia during normal working hours, as if nothing had happened.

It seems that there is no important task. The girl is reading a book in the living room, wrapped in a shawl and nestled in a velvet armchair, looking very leisurely.

Hearing the sound of him pushing the door and entering, she looked up, and when she saw him, she was slightly taken aback, and sighed:

"It's really hard work, Li Yuan."

It's hard to tell whether this is just a feeling or a veiled irony, but Li Yuan has no intention of haggling with her.

The Sky Casino actually spread coin bombs to the world by gambling money, and the detective agency seems to be related to this. When the general manager Sigma fell into the sky, the human tiger came out to rescue him, and his whereabouts were unknown afterwards.

detective agency...

He glanced at the petite and delicate girl in the large armchair out of the corner of his eye, and couldn't help thinking, what kind of terrifying inner truth was hidden under her weak and harmless appearance?

Detective agency, what's the plan?

But the girl was also staring at him, and her vine-purple eyes gradually revealed the meaning of exploration and thinking.

Feeling a little uncomfortable, he was about to frown fiercely at her when the girl suddenly stretched out her hand towards him.

"Give me the USB drive Dunjun left behind."

"If you don't believe what's in it, there's no use holding it," she said.

"what?"

Liyuan Michizao turned his head to look at her in bewilderment.

The girl shook her head in a daze.

"I didn't expect the devil to add such a restriction..."

After saying this to herself, she raised her eyelashes again, looked at him, and said clearly, "Remember to use your metal operation to repair the USB drive before giving it to me."

She smiled slightly, "I really want to see how Dunjun and Jinghua are doing now."

The information revealed in the words made him show a shocked expression.

"You mean—"

"Yes, I leaked the news to you on purpose. Otherwise, would you want to bother the store manager because of Lucy? He is just an elegant and clumsy kind-hearted person. The detective agency has already given him extra help on weekdays." A lot of trouble."

The girl said naturally.

"Also, I originally thought that at least you are a reasonable and communicative person, but I didn't expect the devil to set up such a restriction..."

She muttered something, then spread her white palms again, and said in a commanding tone that could not be refused, "Hurry up. You didn't intend to give it to anyone else anyway, so fix it for me now."

Tachihara Michizao stared at her speechlessly.

Would an organization capable of brutally killing hostages care about the situation of a mere coffee shop manager?

Why did you deliberately lure them to Sky Casino?

... His evaluation is also very interesting.

Moreover, the biggest problem is that he is a military policeman, how dare she speak to him so brazenly?

Under the confusion of thoughts, he actually repaired the USB flash drive according to the girl's request and handed it to the girl.

The other party got what he wanted, showed a satisfied sweet smile, then glanced at him, and said unceremoniously:

"You look really stupid now, don't you get blown to the head? I don't need you today. It's up to you to go back to Black Lizard or go home. I can just stay alone."

——He didn't really come to be her bodyguard!

"Relax, we have no other actions today."

The girl said coolly, "The detective agency is different. Our members can rest after being injured."

"..."

Li Yuan Michizao was speechless, he could only look at her blankly, his eyes and eyebrows, which had always been a bit unfriendly in the organization, revealed a little ignorant and well-behaved meaning.

After a while, he finally choked out a word.

"You woman, why do you know everything?"

His identity, the reason for his undercover investigation, the monitoring task assigned to him by the team... She even knows about his supernatural powers?

"These are all things that can be understood after thinking about it."

The girl smiled and shook her head.

As if remembering something, she lowered her eyelashes, and her expression suddenly became a little sad.

"...if only I knew everything."

she says.

Thinking about what the girl said in the end with unclear meaning, Tachihara Michizo returned to the place where the black lizard was.

The members of the martial arts faction were also not dispatched today, they were doing their own business in their seats.

Hearing the sound of him entering the door, Guangjin Liulang raised his head, and asked with some doubts: "Liyuan, why didn't you follow Master Hai Laoze?"

"She said she didn't need me today and let me come back by myself."

Li Yuan answered casually, sat down in his seat, stared at the Mianmian break that hadn't been dealt with on the table, and started to be dazed.

...I always feel that many things are not as simple as they seem.

Just like this aimlessly killing time, it was almost time for lunch, and he still had no clue.

After hesitating for a while, he looked at Guangjin Liulang who was enjoying the pipe presented by the girl, and finally asked the question that was lingering in his mind.

"Father."

He chose his words carefully, "About Hai Laoze, my lord...what do you think?"

The young man tried not to express his intentions so abruptly, "Why is everyone's attitude towards her so normal...?"

It has nothing to do with being a member of a criminal organization, and it is not a person who enters the same organization and can write off his past, pretends to be harmless, and hides himself since childhood, isn't it very scary?

But in just two or three days, not only the leader and the elites in the organization, but even the ordinary members didn't seem to have any prejudice against her, and they seemed to get along very happily.

"Do you think those people in the detective agency are the ones?"

"?"

As soon as this remark came out, not only Guangjin who was asking about it, but also Yin who was silently maintaining the dagger on the other side looked up and stared at him with the eyes of a fool.

"?what?!"

Tachihara Michizao couldn't help but stare back.

Did he ask a stupid question?

"Liyuan."

Guangjin Liulang asked cautiously, "After you went back yesterday, did you suffer any injuries?"

Daoist Liyuan was startled.

"Did someone hit your head while playing basketball?"

Hirotsu looked at him kindly.

"what?!"

"If you have no problem with your head, of course this kind of thing will be understood immediately."

Guangjin Liulang stroked his beard and said with a smile, "How can a detective agency be a terrorist organization? In the mafia, there is no one who doesn't know about it."

This sentence was like a sudden heavy hammer, hitting the top of his head hard.

"About Mrs. Hai Laoze...you have been following her these two days, don't you understand her style?"

Hirotsu said slowly, "Even in the detective agency, she can be regarded as one of the most soft-hearted people."

Tachihara Michizo opened his eyes wide, and completely stopped his movements.

He listened to Guangjin and Yin chatting over there.

"I remember that Akutagawa-sama had a conflict with Ebizawa-sama because he couldn't kill criminals."

Yin nodded in agreement, and Guangjin said with emotion, "Although it has been two years, it seems like it was yesterday. After getting older, people really..."

There was a bang in Liyuan Michizao's mind.

Everything in front of me suddenly became clear.

All the inconsistencies that I feel are connected in series, leading my thoughts to a certain direction that is frightening.

Yes.

How can a detective agency that is dedicated to saving people and protecting Yokohama at all costs be a terrorist organization?

And that girl who seems to be shrouded in mist...

In order to protect their companions, they do not hesitate to join the mafia, and even criminals want them to get a fair trial.

Even if he is not friendly to her, if he sees him injured, he will send him to rest——

The information in the information is correct!

She is the kind of person who looks the same on the outside, not what he had guessed before!

——What have we been doing so far?

He couldn't help but question himself, what is going on in this situation?

He suddenly remembered that in the USB flash drive, he only watched the first video.

——The people in the detective agency know the truth!

Li Yuan stood up.

— to ask her!She must know why!

Amidst Hirotsu and Yin's surprised inquiries, Tachihara Michizo rushed out and ran all the way to the top floor where the girl's room was located.

But when he opened the door, there was no one in the room.

"Master Hai Laoze went to the underground prison to perform a mission."

The other guards outside the door looked at him strangely, but finally informed the girl where she was going.

He frowned and hurried towards his destination.

The faint white mist seeped slowly from the cracks in the stone wall, it was cold, damp and bitingly cool.

He rushed down the dimly lit stairs and ran into the hallway with pale lights. The door at the end just opened, and a slender figure came out slowly.

Looking at the girl's figure, Li Yuan Michizao's thoughts were suddenly blanked out, and he couldn't help but froze in place.

The bleak and gloomy light and shadow cast on her face, the young girl's complexion was paler than the light, and the expression between her brows was a bit cold.

On the slightly swaying black skirt, several light brown lozenges were covered by deeper colors, like bloodstains.

Seeing him on the other side, she frowned slightly, and asked in a calm voice that couldn't hear the emotion: "Do you have anything to ask me?"

Filled with doubts, Li Yuan opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Although he didn't answer, the girl probably guessed the truth from his expression, and slightly hooked the corners of her lips.

"I'm going to deal with the things I rubbed first."

She sighed, "Come back to me in an hour."

She drooped her eyes and stopped talking, and passed his side lightly.

At the end of the corridor, a few people in overalls packed something heavy, wet and blurry in a bag, and walked out through the side door.

Li Yuan turned his head in astonishment, and looked at the nearby guards.

"It's not what you think."

The other party explained to him in a low voice, "When Master Ebizawa came, Master Kajii had just left after doing experiments with the people here."

"The scene has not been cleaned up yet."

– Lemon Bombs.

Kajii Jijiro is a person who has no scruples to use the lives of others to explore the cruel science he loves with all his heart, and he is a companion, and his research is supported by the leader.

This is a conflict that cannot be eased no matter how twists and turns she is and how skillful she is.

He walked into the prison at the end, looking at the broken limbs that had not yet been lifted out, the walls covered in flesh and blood, and the blood stains that could not be cleaned in the cracks of the bricks under his feet for many years.

There seemed to be a little gray dust floating in the air.

Is this the ashes of gunpowder, or carbonized human tissue?

He doesn't understand these things.

He just realized one thing very clearly——

It was not only the culprit who didn't know where she was, but also them who made the girl who wanted to save the life of the villain have to face all of this.

It was them, the government search force's pursuit of the members of the detective agency that had brought her here for good.

After taking a bath, the disgusting smell of blood that lingers around the body, as if about to soak the skin, has been replaced by the faint rose aroma of the bath salts.

When she came out of the bathroom, the changed clothes had been taken to be cleaned, and the blood-stained carpet was replaced with a new one when she walked in. It was her preferred soft plush carpet.

In this regard, the port mafia is almost the same as the Nakiri family, so meticulous that it almost kills people.

Probably because she was worried that she would recall the previous scene, the black tea on the table was also removed and replaced with coffee.

——Is it the arrangement of Mr. Nakaya's subordinates?It's really dumbfounding.

It is not uncommon to see scenes ten times worse than this at the crime scene.She left after completing today's tasks. Why do people think that her mental state is so fragile that she needs this kind of care.

There is a dull pain in the heart.

The girl quietly sat down at the table, and suddenly remembered Dazai's previous attitude.

He has always disapproved of her getting too involved in the port mafia, and he is especially wary of Mori Ogai's solicitation of her, and he is more resolute than anyone else.Now that I think about it, he was right.

It doesn't have much to do with Kajii, he's just the tip of the iceberg floating on the surface of the problem she's facing.

The port mafia is the executioner of the night, the deepest darkness of the city.

There is no need to consider qualifications and reasons, and of course they can deal with those who offend their dignity at will.

They have always lived like this. From this point of view, perhaps her persistence is rather strange.

Everyone will follow her instructions because she has a compromise method and has demonstrated the corresponding ability and means, and the leader and other cadres also support her in doing so.

However, she who has just established a foothold here and comes from an external organization, is she really going to touch their long-standing code of conduct and the true background of the port mafia?

She will always be a member of the detective agency, and she doesn't think she has left the detective agency now, but since she promised to join the port mafia——

Just like the responsibility of reforming Yuanyue was provoked before, there are some things that also need to be chosen.

What should I do?

She still doesn't have a clear idea about this matter.

But at least, she thought - I'm going to have to wear gloves too.

Recalling the blood and flesh that was accidentally touched and splashed on the wall, the fingertips seemed to have a slippery and sticky touch again.

She rubbed her fingers, suppressing the unspeakable nausea, and sighed faintly.

The girl sitting in the middle of the huge living room thoughtfully picked up her coffee cup, lowered her eyelashes in the sweltering heat, with a hazy profile.

Li Yuan hasn't come yet - he's so slow.However, he seems to have discovered something abnormal, which is really a surprise.

Judging from his handling of the USB flash drive, the devil should distort other people's views like controlling her, making people believe that the detective agency is guilty without any doubt.

The limiting condition should be "members of the procuratorate."

Therefore, Li Yuan, who has a dual identity, probably broke through the limit by accident when he was talking about this matter with his Mafia companions.

How to explain the facts to him?

She should have been thinking about it, but her thoughts drifted to another person.

——That person, he doesn't have any mafia status.

But under the constraints of the pages of the book, he was still willing to believe her.

She has experienced the kind of inescapable imprisonment, so she understands even more how rare it is for him to achieve such a level.

With the gradual deepening of the incident, every time he realizes his heart, he can feel that this affection is getting stronger.

She stared at the small light brown swirl in the cup, and thought in a daze, but, what can I do now?

There was a sound in the room, it was not from the direction of the main entrance, but from a hidden passage on the corner wall of the reception room.

Gan Cha raised his head suspiciously, looked there, and asked:

"Liyuan? Why do you—"

The words stopped abruptly.

The movements and expressions froze instantly, and she could hardly believe her eyes.

From behind Li Yuan who was smiling very arrogantly, in the shadow of the passage, came out a figure she was very familiar with and whom she still missed just now.

The sunlight in the room gradually illuminated the dazzling three-spotted red plums.

"you--"

The coffee cup slipped from her hand, but she couldn't pay attention to it at all, she just stood up in shock and bewilderment.

The young man walked towards her, his light-colored eyes fixed on her.

It seems that there is no difference in the focused eyes from before, but it seems that something is completely different.

Under the calm expression, there is a surging undercurrent looming.

She seemed to understand a little bit, so a strange and unfamiliar panic and shyness came to her heart in an instant.Instinctively wanting to run away immediately, but was locked in his gaze and couldn't move, almost trembling.

Burning heat rushed to his cheeks, and his mind went blank.

Seeing the approaching figure of the young man, everything around him seemed to disappear, only the uncontrollable and violent heartbeat sounded in his ears.
