15 Chapter 15
"I'm looking for a bartending tutorial."
Ye Yueshen scanned the various discussions in the forum.
Very good.
It has completely become a funny daily script.
Ye Yueshen closed the forum silently.
After getting off the tram, the four returned safely to the Armed Detective Agency. Izumi Kyoka was taken away for a private talk. The detective agency was unusually quiet with many members missing.
Mu Ye Xue Che walked into the detective agency and offered snacks and desserts as usual, "Three days."
Edogawa Ranpo curled his eyes and said, "Hmm."
"Armed Detective Agency, Ms. Yosano." A voice came from the doorway. A courier was carrying a cart piled high with boxes. He called out, "These are your things."
Yosano Akiko went forward to check and found that the address and recipient on the express delivery slip were indeed hers.
“I didn’t buy any of this stuff.”
The courier scratched his head: "I don't know either. Maybe someone wants to give you a surprise?"
The buyer did not sign his name or leave any information.
The courier left in a hurry after confirming the receipt.
Mu Ye Xue Che glanced over and quickly looked away.
Yosano Akiko brought in the cart of things. She tucked her hair behind her ears, her expression slightly solemn.
In the past, there have been cases where someone mailed a bomb to a detective agency under the guise of giving a gift.
If these boxes were bombs—
The moment she opened the box, Yosano Akiko's thoughts stopped for a second.
Inside the box was a new tool she had recently taken a fancy to.
The tram exploded a while ago, and all the things she bought were scrapped along with the tram.
Who is it?
Who sent these things to her?
Yosano Akiko locked onto Kurome Yukie almost instantly.
She raised her head.
Mu Ye Xue Che was typing on the keyboard and didn't look over at all.
"Muroba-kun," Yosano Akiko asked, "Did you buy these things?"
Mu Ye Xue Che paused, "It's not me."
After a long while, he finally looked over with his chin propped up.
"Maybe it's an apology from the guy who bumped into Atsushi-kun earlier."
Yosano Akiko's face suddenly turned cold.
"he?"
She stood up, patted her clothes, raised her eyebrows and said,
"If it were him, I would have returned these."
Mu Ye Xue Che: "..."
no.
etc.
Go back?
Mu Ye Xue Che opened his eyes slightly and froze in place.
Why are you going back?
Is there something wrong with this reason?
It is obvious that the most appropriate way of saying it is to apologize.
If he really returns it, how will he find an excuse to continue delivering it next time? And what about his mission...
While he was in a daze, a voice came from the side.
"I bought it." Edogawa Ranpo raised his hand lazily, "You can use it with confidence."
Mu Ye Xue Che was startled and turned his head to look at him, only to see the great detective hiding one hand under the table and secretly making a "yeah" gesture to him.
No, it doesn’t seem to be “yeah”.
It’s two.
Mu Ye Xue Che understood what he meant instantly.
“…”
He thought about his mission.
Give in again.
The last time.
"It was actually sent by Mr. Ranpo." Murasakibara Xueche said, "How kind of you."
————
Port Mafia, basement.
"Okay." A man stood in front of Weilan. He had black hair and black eyes, and his appearance was unremarkable. He was the type that would be forgotten if thrown into a crowd.
Verlaine rarely praised others, but the learning ability of this "new student" in front of him was too good.
He nodded slightly: "Very good."
He looked at the fellow in front of him, and the other party was completely different from what he had initially expected.
All of Himuro Hayato's points are in intelligence. His brain is comparable to a calculator and can simulate thousands of scenarios in one second.
But when it comes to fighting, Hayato Himuro is like a child who has just learned to speak, observing and imitating everything around him.
Himuro Hayato touched his face. This was a new skill he and Weilun had learned: disguise.
"Thank you." Himuro Hayato said calmly, "Even though you hide in the basement every day, you still have some real talent."
Verlaine:?
He was stunned for two seconds.
What is Himuro Hayato talking about?
He was strangely silent for two seconds.
Wasn't Himuro Hayato very polite before? What's going on now? Is there something wrong with the programming those humans gave him?
Himuro Hayato looked at the stunned Verlaine and continued, "Are these the only books you spend your days with? Then your life is truly wonderful."
Verlaine: “…………”
What happened to Himuro Hayato?
He narrowed his eyes slightly.
Suddenly, he grabbed Hayato Himuro's collar, and Hayato was caught off guard. Wei Erlain saw clearly the pair of black eyes with colored contact lenses.
There was calmness in the other person's eyes.
The air was silent for two seconds.
The other man looked at Weilan, as if he had belatedly realized something. His calm expression finally wavered. He frowned slightly and lowered his eyes. "I'm sorry, I..."
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Wei Lain.
"Next time you come to me, I'll teach you some fighting techniques." Wei Erlan loosened his collar and easily changed the subject. "You don't have any special abilities, but you have excellent physical fitness, which makes you suitable for attacking the enemy when they are least prepared."
Himuro Hayato was stunned.
This was not what he expected.
How did the topic shift to learning combat techniques?
Ye Yue Shen suddenly had a bad feeling.
Himuro Hayato asked, "Why?"
Verlaine said simply: "To prevent you from getting beaten."
Hazuki Shin: [……]
Is this the point?
Without even continuing to observe, Ye Yueshen knew that this interpretation of the script had also failed.
The assassination king's first reaction when being provoked was to worry that the other party would be beaten for the way he spoke.
He was interrupted before he even finished his performance.
Are all the people in the Port Mafia so tolerant...?
No matter how you look at it, it’s the Mafia’s problem!
Hayato Himuro took off his disguise and left the basement. Then he received a new email and turned on his phone.
That was a new mission. Someone wanted to make a deal with the Mafia. The content of the deal was a list of undercover agents planted in the Mafia by the Special Ability Agent Department.
Hayato Himuro will serve as the contact person for this mission.
Another new email popped up, this time with only a short sentence: [Eliminate the target after the mission is completed.]
Himuro Hayato put away his phone.
“…”
bar.
A man dressed in casual clothes, wearing a pair of round-frame glasses and a mole at the corner of his lip, walked into the bar carrying a briefcase.
The data of the Special Ability Agent Department was leaked, someone took the undercover list and prepared to trade it.
And Ango Sakaguchi is the member sent by the Special Ability Special Agent Department to handle this incident.
"A Negroni." Ango Sakaguchi found a place with a good view and sat down.
Sakaguchi Ango's gaze fell on the other person's face.
It was a completely unfamiliar face.
The members of the Special Ability Agents Division hadn't seen him before when they were scouting the area. Was he a newcomer? Or was he a variable?
"OK."
The bartender responded, but instead of starting to make drinks, he walked to the other side of the bar.
He was tall and slender, leaning against the wall and turning on his cell phone.
The light from the screen illuminated his pupils, and the other person's fingertips were moving across the screen.
A few minutes later, he put away his phone and walked towards Ango Sakaguchi.
The bartender was rummaging through the ingredients with a calm expression, but his technique was not very skilled.
Ango Sakaguchi, who watched the whole thing, said: "."
There were so many questions that he didn't know which to ask first.
"Excuse me, is there anything over there?" Ango Sakaguchi pointed to where the bartender had just stood.
The bartender raised his eyes and looked at him. Although his face was ordinary and without any special features, Sakaguchi Ango inexplicably saw a hint of danger.
He tensed up instantly.
"Nothing." The other party replied.
"Then you just..."
"I'm looking for a bartending tutorial."
“…?”
What?
What tutorials are you looking for?
Sakaguchi Ango was stunned.
"Okay, your drink." The bartender pushed the glass in front of him. "Please enjoy it."
Sakaguchi Ango looked at the glass of wine with an indescribable look.
Is this really drinkable?
The other party said at this time: "Don't worry, I have learned it."
Sakaguchi Ango: "..."
Is this guy really a bartender?
Didn't you sneak anything into his drink?
"Don't you want to try it?"
The bartender wiped the glass and looked at him. "Here's the drink you ordered."
This bartender is no ordinary person.
Sakaguchi Ango realized this immediately.
"No." He rubbed his brows, "I'm suddenly not in the mood to drink."
"Are you new here?" asked Ango Sakaguchi.
"Yes."
"Oh, how long have you been working here?"
"Twenty minutes."
“…”
Sakaguchi Ango's expression changed.
If it wasn't the wrong timing, he would really point out this guy's unreasonableness.
Don't you even want to act?
Ango Sakaguchi tapped his fingertips under the table, sending a signal to the members of the Special Ability Department, asking them to pay more attention to the bartender.
He quietly tested the bartender while observing his surroundings.
"Which number of your guests am I?"
The other party replied: "Second person, the person in front of you ordered a glass of boiled water."
"Are you working part-time? At university?"
"No, my job is bartending."
“…”
Just started a new job 20 minutes ago?
Are you serious?
It's really suspicious.
This person is already suspicious to the point where he's not really suspicious anymore.
Sakaguchi Ango was about to continue asking questions when he suddenly caught a glimpse of the target walking into the bar.
"It's nice to chat with you." Sakaguchi Ango asked, "When do you usually show up here?"
The bartender paused to wipe the glass.
He looked at Sakaguchi Ango steadily and replied, "Today, now."
“…”
If this person is a contact person sent by the Mafia, then he is gifted in another sense.
There are doubts all over the body.
To this extent...
It was probably a bait, deliberately designed to attract their attention.
Ango Sakaguchi had an idea.
"I see."
Sakaguchi Ango stood up and said, "I'm leaving."
The bartender said, "Okay."
Sakaguchi Ango walked towards the other side of the bar.
"Ding." The wiped cups were placed back on the bar.
The bartender behind the bar was nowhere to be seen.
"Bartender?" The new customer frowned. He glanced at the bar and muttered, "Where's the bartender?"
Himuro Hayato removed his disguise and followed Sakaguchi Ango closely, typing on his phone—
[Mission Start]
