Chapter 33 What the Eastern Depot Can't Control, the Western Depot Can.



Taro kept rambling on and on, but Yoruichi Toyama ignored him and only stopped when they reached the entrance of the coffee shop.

See? I told you it was nothing!

Taro's voice also sounded very happy.

The coffee shop in front of me had a "Open for Business" sign hanging at the entrance, and the lights were on inside, with the faint sound of people talking coming from within.

In particular, that familiar aroma of coffee...

Yoruichi Toyama habitually opened the shop door.

At the same time as the owner of the store greeted him with "Welcome," Taro let out a "roar" and pounced into the store like lightning.

"Plop plop"...

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh"...

Cat hair and bird feathers began to flutter again.

Yoruichi Toyama and Mr. Mao, who was holding a shovel, stared at each other for a long time before finally smiling at the same time.

"Mr. Yuanshan, we have some freshly arrived steaks today, would you like to try them?" Boss Mao greeted him warmly.

Just as Yoruichi Toyama was about to nod and say "okay," a gust of wind suddenly swept by.

A gentle breeze carrying a warm and comforting feeling.

Then his body was suddenly hugged tightly, and he instinctively hugged the person in his arms as well.

Yoruichi, you're back!

"Ming, Mingmei..."

Yoruichi Toyama suddenly froze, because they were so close that she couldn't even see the face of the person she was hugging.

All you can see is her short, ear-length black hair, like Audrey Hepburn's.

And there are delicate, small ears, and a smooth neck...

She seems to be...about the same height as me...

And she also had high heels...

If we stand together in the future, especially when taking pictures, should I wear height-increasing insoles?

Yoruichi Toyama inexplicably thought of many strange questions.

"Haha, you siblings really have a good relationship!" Boss Mao's voice seemed to pull him back to reality.

"Akami..." Yoruichi Toyama grabbed the shoulders of the person in her arms and pushed her away a little. "Why did you come back?"

"Didn't you say that Mr. Furuya helped you find a job?"

It seemed that because of the reminder from "Mr. Furuya", Akemi Miyano, who had been a little overwhelmed by the joy of the reunion, calmed down again.

Her gaze became clear and slightly mischievous as she glanced at Yoruichi Toyama.

"Yes, my return was arranged by Mr. Furuya."

"He said that Brother Ye Yi was already a special advisor to the Metropolitan Police Department, so he asked me to be your assistant."

“In other words,” Akemi Miyano tilted her head, seemingly studying Yoichi Toyama’s reaction to that statement, “we are detectives officially recognized by the Metropolitan Police Department!”

"Ah, this..."

Yoruichi Toyama couldn't help but scratch her head.

He had originally sworn he would never become a detective.

On the one hand, he felt somewhat uncomfortable that a policeman would go and work as a detective, skirting the edges of legality.

On the other hand, since he has two properties to rent out, there's no need for him to go against Uncle Mori and delay his chance to become a famous detective.

He's just here to make a brief appearance and gain favor with a few people.

But thinking back on what I've experienced, it seems... whether I'm a detective or not doesn't make much difference.

In Taro's words, he meddles in a lot of other people's business.

If that's the case, then being a detective as a special advisor in the First Investigation Division of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department's Criminal Investigation Department would be the same treatment as the ancestor of detectives, Sherlock Holmes!

With a stipend from the Metropolitan Police Department, managing cases that even they can spoil, this job is definitely doable!

However, Miyano Akemi...

Yoruichi Toyama suddenly remembered that she had said, "It was arranged by Mr. Furuya."

In other words, the act of "being a detective" was less of a hobby for him and more of a public identity given to him by having Akemi Miyano gather clues for the Public Security Bureau.

Inspector Furuya, you're really shrewd!

An anger rose in Yoruichi Toyama's chest, but before it could reach her head, Akemi Miyano reached out and pressed it down.

"Actually, it was my idea that came up first."

She placed one hand on Yoruichi Toyama's chest and spoke quietly.

"Mr. Furuya thought about it for a long time and felt that this was the best way, so he agreed."

"Brother Ye Yi, as you know, being a detective has always been my dream..."

She said she wanted to "become a detective," but Yoruichi Toyama could tell from her eyes that she meant "save her sister."

Shiho Miyano is still under the control of the Black Organization.

Miyano Akemi will not give up until she rescues her as well.

Yoruichi Toyama pondered for a moment, then finally nodded reluctantly.

"In that case..."

"Mr. Toyama, are you really going to open a detective agency?" Mr. Mao, who was listening in, asked excitedly. "A detective officially recognized by the Metropolitan Police Department, that's amazing!"

Yuanshan Yezhi chuckled softly.

"I haven't even found a place for the detective agency yet."

Or, like Uncle Mori, you could work from your rented apartment?

But his house was a Western-style villa, while this one was a Japanese-style house; it didn't look like an office at all.

"I have a suggestion," Mr. Mao said, seemingly unusually enthusiastic, "since this café doesn't get many customers anyway, why not turn it into a detective agency as well!"

"Count me in as a staff member, okay? While you're out investigating, I can stay at headquarters and help you with mail and documents..."

Uncle, besides fishing, what makes you interested in this too?

Yuanshan Ye was speechless for a moment.
