Master Xia You is still thinking about life today

Chapter 64 Reflecting on Life Day 64

If the spirits on Mount Osore are really good, it might be a good choice to package them up for Jay.

Alas, he knew that the curse spirit jade was not tasty, and he couldn't stop Xia Youjie from eating those things, so he could only help find a powerful curse spirit to feed Jie.

He is so sweet.

"As long as the city there doesn't object." Noctua Zhengdao expressed no expression.

"Alright then." Gojo Satoru stood up, "Let's just prepare some New Year's gifts for Jie in advance."

After finishing speaking, the things on Gojo Satoru disappeared with a swipe of the ground.

Night Moth said rightly: "!!!"

"It's a very convenient storage tool." Gojo Satoru opened his arms and twirled around, then proudly shook the Bodhi Seed Dzi Bead Bracelet on his wrist, "Jie gave it to me, it's perfect for putting sweets. "

Noctua said rightly: "Then why didn't you let go just now?"

Dazed is carrying a big bag and a small bag, walked through most of the campus, and did not forget to carry it when he entered the dojo.

"Of course it's for you to see." Wujo Wuli said confidently, "Jie prepared those for me. Although I can't give you a little bit, I can let you have a look."

This behavior can also be called: showing off.

Noctua said rightly: "...Go, hurry up, hurry up and go to Mount Oor!"

***

When Xia Youjie arrived at the Armed Detective Agency, Ranpo Edogawa and Sakunosuke Oda, who had been in contact with him, had already returned.Seeing Xia Youjie push the door in, Edogawa Ranpo immediately glanced triumphantly at Oda Sakunosuke.

That means: If he saw it, he said that she would definitely come to the detective agency to make a commission.

However, the winking eye was cast on the blind man, and Edogawa's triumphant glance was met with a puzzled look back by Oda Sakunosuke.After a strange pause for three seconds, the red-haired man looked down at the steaming coffee in his hand and said, "No sugar added."

Edogawa Ranpo: "...I don't care for your black coffee!"

His love for Pozi Soda is undeniable!

Oda Sakunosuke nodded silently. He drank all the coffee in one gulp, then got up, walked towards Xia Youjie, and said, "Miss, please go here for the entrustment."

In the small room separated by a screen, there is a place for commissioning.

Although there are few people here, they still have a sense of ritual in their work.

Oda Sakuyuki's assistant held a ledger and was responsible for recording the entrusted content.

Originally, there was a procedure to weigh whether to accept the commission, but Xia Youjie was considered a client brought in by Edogawa Ranpo on his own initiative, so this procedure was skipped.

In addition to the two of them, there is also a young girl with short hair who is similar to Edogawa Ranpo. She is very beautiful and has a butterfly hairpin in her hair.

Xia Youjie sat on the sofa in a very ladylike manner, with his hands folded on his lap.Xia Youjie nodded his head slightly and said in a deep voice, "This is how it happened."

"My family's ancestors have some heritage, and they have prepared some precious inheritance for future generations. As the only heir of this generation, when I searched for those inheritance according to the ancestor's message, I found that the things were stolen."

Xia Youjie's expression darkened, and his tone was cold: "It stands to reason that the anti-theft measures for the things left by the ancestors are very good. This kind of theft should not have happened, but..." After a pause, "I I received news a few days ago that an inheritance has appeared in Yokohama. I have retrieved the item, and the process went so smoothly, as if the person had no interest in my item, and the item just appeared there by coincidence."

Saying that, Xia Youjie looked at Edogawa Ranpo, as if waiting for his analysis.

"Kacha Kacha..." Edogawa was sitting on the sofa in random steps, with his legs crossed, and a delicious stick in his mouth, and the fine dregs rustled off his clothes.The corners of the girl's lips twitched slightly, wearing a butterfly hairpin beside her, with a helpless but helpless expression on her face.She stretched out her hand and helped the other party brush off the dross on the skirt.

Edogawa Ranpo was obviously used to this kind of care. He raised his neck and asked the girl, the social doctor of the detective agency and Yosano Akiko to tidy up his clothes.

Swallowing the last mouthful of the delicious stick, Edogawa wiped his mouth in disorder, and said, "What is the inheritance you just found?"

"It's this one." Xia Youjie took out a hard sandalwood bead and put it on the tea table.

"Hmm..." Edogawa picked up the hard bead in random steps, squinted his eyes and stared at the hard bead, as if he couldn't see anything from left to right, he simply took out his black-rimmed glasses and looked at the bridge of his nose. Push to activate the ability.

Oda Sakunosuke stood behind with a blank expression to help with stage special effects.

"So that's how it is..." In the strong wind indoors, Edogawa's hair flew wildly, and behind plain glasses was a pair of sharp green eyes.

"The key to the problem lies in the writing on the beads. This is a writing that does not belong to any country or nation in the world, but it has a very special power and can hide it with a special aura, similar to the seal in the story."

"The words on it are said to be the words of God." Xia Youjie made a memoir, talking nonsense solemnly, "This bead is a relic left by an eminent monk thousands of years ago when he passed away. It has very special power. The ancestors put it on it The word of God is engraved to protect it from being plundered by evil people."

This is not a lie, rounded up, it is the slightly confused real past.

Edogawa looked at Xia Youjie randomly. He could see that the lady in front of him was hiding something, which might be related to her family background, but it was not a lie.

Aren't relics just the bone dregs left after a monk was burnt to death?The relics left after the monks passed away thousands of years ago, are they old bones?

Edogawa Ranpo wisely didn't say anything.

Antiques or something, he really doesn't have that aesthetic.

Compared with those rags that are said to have a history, he prefers the delicious dim sum that has no history.

Returning the sandalwood-colored hard beads to Xia Youjie, Edogawa ran his arms around his chest and said, "I already understand."

Xia Youjie leaned slightly, indicating that he was waiting for Edogawa Ranpo's analysis.

"Take the person who took away your family's inheritance as Suspect A, and the person who was pushed out as a shield for the dead ghost is Suspect B. It can be preliminarily determined: Suspect A deliberately lured you to Yokohama, but in the end, did he lure you away from the original place?" There is still a trap here, and there is not enough information to analyze it for the time being.”

Edogawa ran out of his pocket with his backhand, took out an unopened mentaiko-flavored delicious bar, put it on the coffee table, and poked it with his finger.

"As for suspect B, he should be a guy with certain strength and IQ but too arrogant to see the truth. Suspect A sent the bead to suspect B because the other party was collecting similar things , Suspect A thinks Suspect B will hold on to the bead until you find it, but..."

"Suspect A didn't predict that Suspect B didn't like your stuff, so he threw it away immediately. The two of you didn't match up as Suspect A wished."

Xia Youjie smiled politely, not knowing whether to be angry at the other party's blindness or to be glad that he successfully got back a Lingyu.

"Suspect A should have been monitoring the behavior of suspect B. He knew what the other party had done, but for some reason, he didn't try to get the bead away, because he was sure that once he touched the bead , ta's identity will be exposed."

"Suspect A has had contact with you before, so he should have a certain understanding of your personality. You came to Yokohama not only to retrieve your belongings, but also to investigate the origin of the theft. Therefore, he achieved his goal indirectly. Stayed in Yokohama."

Keep him in Yokohama?

Xia Youjie's heart skipped a beat.

In his mind, the appearance of Gojo Satoru subconsciously appeared.

Could it be that drawing him away was to deal with Wu?

Didn't he say that if it was Wu who hadn't learned the reversal technique a year ago, he did have a weakness, but now?

"No lower limit" has been played by him in various tricks, and the conjurer, onmyoji, curses spirits and monsters together, and they can't do anything to him!Even if he is an old guy who has the ability to steal his Lingyu, the ending will not change.

It was naive to think that if you lured him away, you could hurt Satoru.

When Satoru is alone, he is the strongest.

Xia Youjie looked slightly cold and snorted.

"It seems that you have a lot of confidence in your companion." Edogawa Luanbu tore open the package of the delicious stick, "Before you came, you disguised yourself, which is pretty good, but Suspect A is very You may have a special way to find people, and your disguise may not be useful."

"Pretending?" Yosano Akiko subconsciously looked at Xia Youjie who was facing him. Such a beautiful and elegant lady, is she pretending?Did you dye your hair or put on makeup?She looks like she has no makeup.

Xia Youjie and Xie Ye Jingzi smiled politely, he diligently maintained the current disguise, smiling dignifiedly and elegantly.With his true identity, losing this vest is the real social death.

"Then, Mr. Edogawa, are you sure you want to accept this commission?" Xia Youjie smiled, "Catch suspect B, find out suspect A, and retrieve the relic that my family lost at that time?"

Edogawa Ranpo raised his hand and snapped his fingers: "Ranpo-sama likes challenges."

"Then please." Xia Youjie nodded slightly, "I forgot to introduce myself. The current me is Sato Yu."

Everyone knows, okay, my pseudonym is Yu Sato.Seeing that the other party wanted to find out who was behind the scenes who stole her house and lured her here, it was understandable to give herself a pseudonym.

"Okay, Miss Sato, sign the contract."

Xia Youjie was extremely happy to spend a sky-high commission fee. Since there were several commission targets, the commission fee also increased gradually.

"Find out the identity and location of suspect B, 3000 million yen"

"Find out the identity and location of suspect A, 5000 million yen."

"For every relic recovered, 5000 million yen."

It's a pity that the Armed Detective Agency refused to arrest people in exchange for commission fees.

Xia Youjie felt regretful, and then set aside 2000 million yen as a deposit.

Members of the Armed Detective Agency: "..."

It has been seven years since they opened the detective agency, and this is the first time they have received such an inhumane order, even the president Fukuzawa Yukichi was blown out.

Under the eyes of everyone looking at the rich woman, Xia Youjie was wearing a bag with a calm expression on his face: "Compared to money, it is more important to find the lost family treasures and find out who is behind the scenes who have been targeting us."

To the gods, money is a meaningless number.

"We will do our best." Having learned from Ranpo Edogawa that the suspect B who has been attracted is very likely to be a terrorist, President Fukuzawa's expression is extremely serious.

"Then, please, everyone."

***

Leaving the Armed Detective Agency, Xia Youjie didn't rush back to the hotel, but walked down the street, found a restaurant nearby, sat in the corner, took out his phone and fell into hesitation.

This...Although he believes that Wu will be fine, do you want to remind Wu to be careful?But once he reminded the other party so endlessly, he would definitely guess that there was a problem on his side.At that time, if you act like a baby and say anything, you have to come and help him, which may affect the layout here.

No problem.

Shouldn't be a problem, right?

While hesitating, he heard a loud bang.Xia Youjie raised his head subconsciously, but saw that the door of the restaurant was kicked open, and a group of thugs in suits rushed in, rushing into the restaurant with a clear goal.

Xia Youjie: "???"

The scream sounded out slowly.

"Death knows how to handle things, shut your mouth if you are sensible!" The man in the suit headed by him was full of flesh and looked fierce. He held a gun in his hand, and the muzzle of the gun deliberately and slowly passed the customers in the store.Seeing that the faces of the guests who were dining were pale with fright, a smug smile appeared on his face.

And in such a short time, they had already arrested the target people - a young woman and a child, and dragged them outside despite their cries and begging for mercy.They didn't seem to shy away from disclosing the reason for arresting them, and said with a sneer: "If you want to blame it, blame your husband for meddling in his own business! If you dare to mess with our Death Society, I will make him regret being born in this world."

There was a flash of understanding in Xia Youjie's eyes.

This is a competition for interests and revenge between extreme organizations. I heard that this kind of thing does not harm family members, but there are always organizations that are keen to poke each other's heart on family and friends.

Xia Youjie's eyes fell on the shivering little girl in the woman's arms.

The child is still young, probably not yet five years old.

Under Xia Youjie's feet, a crack in space cracked silently, and a protruding eyeball spun around twice. The thick black ink color that ordinary people cannot see spread on the smooth marble floor of the restaurant. In no time, he touched the feet of those thugs in suits.

Xia Youjie changed his posture on his own, with his arms resting on the armrest of the seat, his blue phoenix eyes glowing with an inorganic cold light.

In the next second, the color of ink surged up suddenly, and a huge piranha full of eyes suddenly opened its big sawtooth mouth, bit the hand holding the gun of the leader of the thug in a suit with a "click", and slammed it violently.

Blood splattered!

The pistol fell to the ground with a clang.

"Ah—" The leader of the thug in a suit uttered a scream. He grabbed his wrist that was suddenly broken and bleeding continuously. When he was terrified, he suddenly met the ugly piranha. Convex eyeballs.

"Monster!!!"

Ordinary people can't see the curse spirit under normal circumstances. Only when they are shrouded in death and fear reaches the extreme, can they see this monster that shouldn't exist in the world.

"Boss!" The others were taken aback by the tragic situation of the leader of the thug, and hurried over to help them, and shouted in a hurry: "Is it a supernatural person?!"

In Yokohama, most people have never heard of the existence of curses and conjurers, but supernatural beings are like urban legends here.Especially gangsters like them, without one or two supernatural beings in the organization, it's not easy to stay in Yokohama.

Such unreasonable injuries, they naturally associate them with supernatural beings.

In their cognition, only supernatural beings can do such a thing.

It should be said that thanks to the unknown forces suppressing Yokohama, no high-level magic spirits were born.Otherwise, based on the widespread awareness of supernatural beings and ordinary people's fear and fear of them, a special magic spirit might be born out of the fear and loathing of supernatural beings.

In the background sound full of fear and noise, Xia Youjie was slightly distracted.

I just don't know what the technique will be like.Hmm, for those who are against supernatural powers, could it be a spell that can nullify supernatural powers?

After Xia Youjie was distracted for a while, the thugs in suits who claimed to be the Death Society were scared to death by the unknown supernatural being.They were worried that the supernatural being was here to protect the mother and daughter, and they didn't dare to touch them again. They only cared about their own lives, and fled out of the restaurant in a hurry.

However, as soon as they ran out of the restaurant, there was a burst of gunfire.

"ah--"

Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, everyone in the restaurant who saw the scene clearly screamed, but was quickly covered by other people who could barely hold their own.

At this time, the quieter the safer.

If you want to live in Yokohama, this kind of small experience in life is essential.

Xia Youjie, who was sitting in an inconspicuous corner, looked out of the window, his gaze slightly concentrated, it was——

The handsome man with purple hair and black eyes had one hand in his pocket, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, while the other hand was playing with a lighter.In the curling smoke, the man's gaze casually glanced over the corpse on the ground, and looked at the trembling restaurant crowd across the window.

"Officer Arakawa, they have already been dealt with." Someone bowed and saluted in a respectful tone.

That was Izumi Arakawa, the port mafia cadre.

"Bury it." After leaving this command, Arakawa Izumi took two steps forward and pushed open the door of the restaurant.

Everyone in the restaurant suddenly froze, their wide eyes filled with fear.What did this man want to do when he entered the restaurant? !

Xia Youjie, who tried his best to put on a frightened expression, frowned indistinctly. In order to fit in with the group, he really used his acting skills all his life.

Do you want Banruo to pretend to be this identity, and he will go to the hotel to be a cat for two days?

Also, a homicide occurred in the hotel where he stayed in the morning, and a mob attacked the restaurant where he was sitting in the afternoon. Is it because of his luck or the Yokohama style of painting?

The black hand behind the scenes set the place in Yokohama, and it really was premeditated.

Xia Youjie: Tsk.

Ignoring the fearful eyes of everyone in the restaurant, Arakawa Izumi randomly picked an empty seat and sat down, then he slightly raised his eyes and looked at the woman dressed as a waiter in the restaurant.

The waitress swallowed, with a sense of professional honor... well, actually, for the sake of her own life, she moved to the front of Arakawa Izumi with two weak legs, and stammered: "You, hello , guest, what would you like to order?"

Arakawa Izumi put out his cigarette before entering the room. He rested his chin with one hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "Have me some soba noodles."

"Okay, okay, please wait a moment, guest."

Xia Youjie glanced at Arakawa Izumi calmly, but couldn't tell that this guy had quite a taste.

Seeing the black suits outside the restaurant dragging the dead bodies of the thugs away, only Arakawa Izumi remained as if he was a customer who came here to eat soba noodles. Although many timid customers wanted to leave the restaurant immediately, they wanted to If you want to check out and leave, you may have to pass by Izumi Arakawa, and they all retreated, trying to suppress the fear in their hearts, and prepared to leave after he left the restaurant.

There are also some guests who are well-informed in Yokohama. Seeing that Izumi Arakawa didn't mean to find fault, they simply put their hearts in their stomachs and eat first.

After doing the math, it seemed that the only ones who left in a hurry were the mother and daughter who were almost taken hostage.

As for the police?

It is impossible to call the police, the parties involved are here, they dare to call the police only when they are crazy.

Xia Youjie: "..."

Do ordinary people have such big hearts?

And, if they didn't leave, how could he get mixed up and leave together?

After all, it was a supernatural being who had met once before and even quarreled with Wu face to face. Xia Youjie, who didn't know much about his supernatural power, was wary.

The soba noodles are prepared in advance, and the ingredients for making the dipping sauce are all ready-made. To make the soba noodles out of the pan, you only need to cook the noodles, rinse the water and adjust the dipping sauce. The whole process doesn’t even take 3 minutes. One serving The soba noodles are served on the table.

Out of fear of Arakawa Izumi's identity, the master chef of the restaurant tried his best to make this soba noodles perfectly.

The waitress tried to calm down as much as possible, and brought the noodles to the table.

Xia Youjie, smelling the fragrance of buckwheat noodles, suddenly remembered that although he came to the restaurant to sit down and mainly consider sending a message to Wu, he seemed to have ordered a bowl of soba noodles, right?

It's just that before he waited a few minutes for the meeting, the group of thugs in suits killed the door.

Although Xia Youjie had no intention of eating noodles, but... Arakawa Izumi's caged soba noodles were jumping in line, right?

As soon as he thought of this, Xia Youjie saw that the waitress seemed to think of something, "ah", and looked at Xia Youjie who was sitting in the corner of the restaurant with a hesitant look on his face.

Apparently, she also remembered that Xia Youjie had ordered soba noodles.

Although everyone is quite afraid of death, their restaurant's reputation is not very good just to join the queue for a big boss like this.

Xia Youjie frowned slightly, and he shook his head, which meant that if the other party came first, he could be the next one.

However, by coincidence, the waitress was also noticed by Izumi Arakawa.

"what happened?"

Arakawa Izumi looked up at the waitress with doubts on his face.

The waitress with the menu in her arms looked at Izumi Arakawa, seeing his unusually handsome appearance and pure black eyes, her heart skipped a beat, maybe she was fascinated by the beauty, or maybe she was afraid of his identity and did not dare to lie, Subconsciously said: "The guest at table 32 ordered a bowl of soba noodles before, but I forgot just now..."

Xia Youjie: "..."

Facing Arakawa Izumi's gaze, Xia Youjie's face was stiff and expressionless.

Arakawa Izumi was obviously taken aback, then he pushed the plate away, and calmly said: "First come, first served, since the lady ordered first, of course she should eat this portion first."

The waitress carefully glanced at Arakawa Izumi's face, seeing that he was not reluctant, she breathed a sigh of relief, and said in a more upbeat tone: "Okay, thank you for your cooperation, your portion will be ready soon."

Saying so, the waitress picked up the plate, walked quickly to a corner of the restaurant, and placed this caged soba noodles in front of Xia Youjie.

"Ma'am, please take it easy."

Xia Youjie was speechless, but he had no choice but to nod in return when Arakawa Izumi smiled.

Forget it, let's eat.
