Chapter 64: Mocktails, Food and Cats - Goodwill Mingzi, ...
"Officer, why are you here? Are you on leave?"
Lin Xi asked.
She hasn't seen the police officer since she went to the police station to take the statement that day.
Although he would open the map from time to time to check his location, Lin Xi had no idea what he usually did.
Although she could directly ask Noah to help her monitor...but except when necessary, she still respects her friends' privacy and will not invade other people's phones without permission.
What if they scare them all off? When being friends, you need to maintain a proper sense of boundaries to avoid being annoying.
So even though Lin Xi knew they were undercover agents, he would occasionally scare them...
But she never disturbed them whenever they met with their contacts.
Very good BOSS, love comes from the organization.
"I guess so," Zhufu Gaoming said, "I'm here to conduct a follow-up visit."
When handling some special cases, the police sometimes need to revisit people involved in the case, such as dispute mediation or cases involving minors.
But this is usually done by patrol officers in the jurisdiction. Zhu Fuxi Gaoming is already a police captain and does not need to participate in the follow-up visit mission.
He came here on his own initiative because there were some things he wanted to investigate.
For example, the whereabouts of A.
According to Tadaki Kashimura, the four treasure hunters all appeared in the mountains that day; Person B said that they were all summoned by Person A, who was the first to say that there was a treasure in Mount Harutsuki; Person D said that Person C was with him and died in the secret room; Person Shibahara Saki came to take a statement and also said that she had only seen Person A when she accidentally triggered the mechanism at the beginning.
"He might have been washed into some corner by the water," the red-haired girl said with disdain. "It was because of his random shooting that the roof suddenly flooded with water."
Apart from this, A never appeared again.
After the patrol officers searched the mountain for several days without success, they believed that A had left Qingyue Mountain and withdrew their forces.
But Zhu Fu Gaoming always had doubts.
This doubt basically comes from the girl in front of him.
Tourists who appeared at Mount Harutsuki by chance, bikers climbing the mountain with cats in their arms, a girl described as a demon by treasure hunters, an explosion that suddenly appeared but harmed no one...
There are too many mysteries about her.
But she was incredibly cooperative. She answered every question during the interview, and her identity was completely clear. She calmly deflected all his probing questions.
His doubts were like clouds, floating in the air with a strong presence, but never coming to fruition.
And today...it's finally a little clearer.
Zhu Fu Gaoming looked at his younger brother who was wearing sunglasses.
Jingguang hasn't contacted him for a long time since he graduated from the police academy in Tokyo. Now he has changed his name and surname and doesn't recognize him when they meet. The most likely possibility is that he is carrying out a secret mission that cannot be known to others.
This mission could be quite dangerous.
The girl was with him, claiming to be his friend, and the interaction between the two seemed very skillful...
Just as he was thinking about it, the cloth bag in Zhu Fu Jingguang's arms moved, and a cat's head popped out.
It was the white cat that Zhufu Gaoming saw on the mountain that day.
The cat meowed, staring at Zhu Fu Gaoming with its azure eyes, then used its front paws to pry open the bag, trying to get out.
Zhu Fu Jingguang hurriedly tucked the parasol under his arm, took out the coconut, and wanted to hold it in his arms. He was a little flustered for a moment.
As a result, Coconut let out an unhappy cry, jumped out of Zhufu Jingguang's arms, jumped in the air, and hit Zhufu Gaoming with a "pia" sound, and its claws suddenly hooked the shoulder straps of Zhufu Gaoming's windbreaker.
"Meow!"
Help the cats!
Zhu Fu Gaoming subconsciously held the coconut.
Zhu Fu Jingguang was startled, "Mr. Gao, Mr. Zhu Fu, your clothes are scratched."
"It's okay." Zhu Fu Gaoming smiled, gently freed Coconut's claws from the shoulder strap, and handed the cat to Lin Xi, who was staring at them with sparkling eyes.
What exactly do you want to know, Ms. Shibahara?
"Oh, Coconut, you can't just jump on any handsome guy you see."
Lin Xi pretended to scold Mao Mao, but actually she was praising him in her heart: It is indeed her cat, very well-mannered.
Coconut looked at her speechlessly.
"Ms. Shibahara, are you going hiking with your friends again today? Today is a weekday, don't you have any classes scheduled?" asked Zhufu Gaoming.
The last time she went to take a statement, she said that she was a junior high school student and couldn't go to school for some reason (when she said this, she showed an expression that showed that she had something to hide, which easily made people think of school bullying or family changes. The policewoman who was questioning her couldn't bear to ask any further questions).
Her family hired a tutor for her.
Although I am studying at home, I still have to take the unified examination for junior high school students. Isn’t it a bit too free to not review and go out to play every day?
Lin Xi blinked: "Hey, there are no classes this afternoon. Besides, I'm here to do some serious business!"
Zhu Fujing next to him was worried again.
What's the matter?!
Punch was saying they were going to the Fengtan Group's factory to kill people and set fire to them—or maybe rob them, steal documents, anything less than what good citizens would do—was that serious business?!
Don’t tell Brother Gao Ming about this kind of thing!
Zhufu Gaoming looked at the bass bag on Zhufu Jingguang's back with deep meaning.
No one takes a bass on a hike.
So there's more than just a bass inside...
"What exactly it is is a secret! I'll tell you when I have a chance~"
Zhu Fu Gaoming smiled and didn't let the suspense lead him to ask more questions. Instead, he said, "Actually, I came here for a personal matter."
Lin Xi: “?”
What, what, some private matter.
I really want to know.
She was listening attentively, but the man suddenly shut his mouth and stopped talking.
Lin Xi:?
"Mr. Officer, if it's convenient for you, could you tell me? It would satisfy my curiosity..."
The first of the Thirty-Six Strategies of Interpersonal Relationship: Move people with sincerity and speak your mind directly. This is from the first section of the first chapter of Lin Zi: The Law of Friendship.
She was genuinely curious.
Although she knew that this guy was imitating her to keep the secret, she was still curious.
"Ms. Shibahara, my personal affairs are also 'secrets.' One 'secret' is exchanged for another 'secret.' Actually, I am also very curious about what Miss Shibahara is doing here. If Miss Shibahara can tell me your 'business,' I will of course be happy to tell Miss Shibahara why I am here."
Lin Xi: ...
Is this how equivalent exchange is used?
What should I do? I feel like what he said makes sense...
And Zhu Fujingguang, who was standing next to her, had already let out a sharp explosion in his heart.
Brother Gao Ming, stop asking.
This kind of "secret" is not something you want to know!
The key point is that he felt that with Punch's personality, he might really tell Brother Gao Ming.
But I don't know what will happen to Gao Ming after I tell him. Punch looks easy to talk to, but he is far from being amiable. If he asks something he shouldn't know, Gao Ming will be in danger...
Fortunately, Lin Xi hesitated for a moment and did not say anything shocking like "I am here to kill people and prevent fires, Mr. Officer." Instead, he said:
"Okay, Officer. I'm actually here to complete a mission. Um... one of those side quests that branch off from the main quest. If I want to go home, I have to complete the game; and to complete the game, I have to complete the mission first."
Every time she opened the system panel, the badge of [Detective Conan Remake] would float in the upper right corner.
Although she died suddenly in her previous life and might have even had a funeral, she still wanted to go home if she could.
This game system didn't explain anything, but there were rewards for completing the game, right? If she changed the plot a little more, she might even get a chance to go home.
When Zhu Fu Jingguang heard her words, he was stunned for a moment, his eyes lowered to the ground, not knowing what he was thinking.
Zhu Fu Gaoming: "Miss Shibahara, do you need help? If you want to go home, I can give you a ride."
He didn't seem to care about the strange things Shibahara Saki said, nor did he pay attention to the motorcycle behind her. He just responded to Shibahara Saki - Do you need help?
Lin Xi understood what he meant, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed: "Are all you police officers like this?"
Just like the answer he gave in the secret passage that day, Zhufu Gaoming responded: "Protecting citizens is the duty of the police."
He paused, then continued, "Ms. Shibahara, do you remember Treasure Hunter A you saw on Mount Harutsuki that day? He's still on the run."
"Besides conducting a follow-up investigation on the case, I came here to see if there are any clues nearby."
Lin Xi: "Hmm? Any progress?"
Zhu Fu Gao Ming: "Yes. The owner of this inn witnessed someone who matched A's description on the day we came down the mountain."
Lin Xi: ...
I don't know why I feel a little guilty.
"It's been so long, he should have escaped long ago, right?"
Zhu Fu Gaoming looked at the mountains behind him.
"Maybe," he said.
"Have you seen the man in the photo?"
"Ah, it's him! He looked... scary at the time, dirty and with a fierce look on his face. He was walking into the mountains late at night..."
"Shirakawa-kun, Shirakawa-kun."
Zhu Fu Jingguang turned around and asked:?
"Could you please buy two bottles of water?" Lin Xi whispered, "It can be reimbursed."
"……good."
Lin Xi watched Zhu Fu Jingguang slowly walk away from the inn: "Mr. Officer, please stop investigating this matter."
Zhu Fu Gaoming looked at Lin Xi without saying a word.
"If you continue investigating like this, Shirakawa-kun will also feel embarrassed," she said.
Mingzi, listen to my advice. This is too complicated and you can't grasp it well.
Although A's death was strictly speaking not related to the organization, the Fengtang Group was not safe. Zhu Fu Gaoming was not a member of the main cast, and did not have the death-proof buff. If something unexpected happened, he would really die...
Zhu Fu Gaoming looks like he relies on his intelligence to win and is not very good at fighting.
Would he die if she punched him?
Zhu Fu Gaoming: ...
I always feel that the girl next to me is thinking about something not very polite.
"'Shirakawa-kun' would also feel embarrassed"...
Do you really know their relationship?
"Is A dead?" he asked.
"Maybe." Lin Xi said vaguely.
Don’t ask, if you ask, it will turn into gray.
For a moment they both fell silent, gazing at the mountains and clouds in the distance.
.
Zhu Fujingguang knew that Pan Qu was trying to get him away.
His head was now completely filled with chaotic thoughts.
Punch and Brother Gao Ming actually knew each other before!
When! How could it happen!
Could it be that a few days ago...
The conversation in the "Love Action Group" a few days ago came to his mind.

What else can they say.
This is my immediate boss.
Give it some praise.

Did they meet at Qingyue Mountain?
What happened then?
Brother Gao Ming must have recognized me...
