"We don't know your background. If you want to cooperate, you need to provide enough bargaining chips."
At 9 o'clock in the evening, in the spacious chess and card room, no one paid attention to the poker table in the corner.
Miss Miyano looked at Ikumi Gunada and didn't trust her at all.
It has nothing to do with Makoto Sakaki...
Miss Miyano is always very alert, and very few people can get into her heart.
On weekdays...
She always appears in disguise.
She only lets down her guard in front of Makoto Sakaki and Akemi Miyano.
Suddenly, a man named Gunda Ikumi appears and calls himself a detective...
Miss Miyano was very skeptical about this.
"You can ask Master Bai Ma about my identity."
After a moment of silence, Gunda Ikumi spoke:
"I once worked in a government agency, but because the work was too exhausting and there were too many bodies to examine every day, I decided to quit and become a private detective."
"Then why did you come to Twilight Annex?"
His fingers tapped the table rhythmically, and Sakaki Makoto looked at her with sharp eyes:
"Everyone comes here for a reason, for example, Ogami Zhushan comes for food, Mr. Maori comes for money, and Hattori Hakuba comes for his dignity as a detective..."
"But Ms. Qiangtian, you are just a detective who changed careers halfway through. I don't believe you are so dedicated to the detective profession."
"What... drove you to come all the way to Nagano Prefecture?"
Ikumi Gunda had never expected that Makoto Sakaki would ask her about her motive for coming here, and she was not prepared at all.
In her opinion...
Isn't it because we all received an invitation that we gathered at the Dusk Villa?
But after Sakaki Makoto's explanation, she finally understood...
Everyone has what is called 'motives', whether good or bad.
"Where are Mogi Harushi and Chima Kyouyo?"
After hesitating for a long time, she asked:
"Why don't you doubt them?"
"I never said anything like they were innocent, it's just that they didn't actively ask to cooperate."
Sakaki Makoto smiled and said:
"Ms. Gunda, can I assume that you are related to the case that happened in Twilight Annex 40 years ago, or..."
"Investigating the Twilight Annex was not your real purpose. Did you come here to get close to someone?"
clatter!
The sound of billiard balls colliding came from behind, occasionally accompanied by Mogi Haruki's exclamations.
Hattori Heiji's face was tense, but after his lust subsided, he realized something was wrong.
Own...
I feel like I just fell into a honey trap...
If Makoto Sakaki and Miss Miyano weren't there...
With his head swollen and hot and his mind unclear, he would probably immediately agree to cooperate with Ikumi Hanada.
"...You doubt me?"
Gunda Yumi said coldly:
"My resume is available at any time if you want to investigate."
"No, no, no, resumes are all lies."
Sakaki Makoto smiled and said:
"This kind of trickery can't be used as identification..."
"Ms. Gunda, you know..."
After a pause, he looked thoughtful:
"Since you entered the room, your various actions reminded me of anyone?"
Qiangtian Yumi did not answer, and her face gradually became cold.
"Using her beauty, the first step is to throw out the background and create a reasonable personality. At the same time, she throws out the bait that she wants to find a boyfriend to arouse the restless hearts of some people..."
Hattori Heiji's face turned red.
"Unfortunately, after you discovered my girlfriend was present, you immediately changed your mind and used the excuse of playing cards to explain that we were in danger, creating a sense of common conflict and common interests, and inviting cooperation..."
Muscles tensed, Sakaki stood up, walked behind her, held her thin shoulders with one hand, and pulled out the MK23 with the other hand...
Naturally, he pressed against her lower back.
To outsiders, they seem like close friends.
But in the eyes of Gunda Ikumi...
There is a big word written on my forehead...
Danger!
"Um..."
After getting closer to her, Sakaki Makoto found that the fragrance became stronger:
"Do you know what your biggest failure is?"
Without waiting for Yumi to answer or argue, Sakaki Makoto said directly in her ear:
"The method you used was perfect, but it was too perfect, just like..."
“Just like in the textbook.”
"Ms. Qiangtian, you are a good student, but you are not suitable for this job."
"As a spy, the most important thing is to be able to adapt to circumstances, not just follow the textbook."
"I don't understand what you're saying."
Qiangtian Yumei's voice was cold and trembling slightly:
"And I didn't think too much about it. This is what private detectives do. The other party paid 2 million to hire me to come to the Twilight Villa, so I came. It's that simple."
"Your mood is disturbed..."
Sakaki Makoto sighed:
"In another situation, you would already be a corpse..."
Fine beads of sweat oozed from her forehead. Ikumi Qiangda tried her best to calm her breathing, but her heart was beating rapidly and uncontrollably.
As Sakaki Makoto said, she...
I'm already a little panicked.
And when Sakaki Makoto pointed out her panic, Ikumi Gunda's breathing became heavier, and her small hands, which were tightly holding her bag, turned slightly white at the joints because she was holding on too tightly.
She couldn't understand it.
Why did I perform perfectly without any mistakes?
