Getting useful information before taking a nap will naturally improve your sleep quality.
Fujiwara Yu, who slept until 9:00 p.m., felt a little dizzy. Humans are indeed troublesome creatures. If they don't sleep enough, they will feel sleepy and have a headache. Now that they sleep more, they don't feel sleepy but feel dizzy.
With drooping eyelids, he immediately checked his phone to see if there were any missed calls or unread emails. After confirming that there were none, he turned to his mailbox. Only when all three places were empty did he calmly walk into the bathroom and start washing up.

After washing up and changing into clean clothes, he looked out the window at the setting sun, stretched, and decided to find an izakaya to have a drink to celebrate learning that the true identity of the rye whiskey was FBI investigator Shuichi Akai.
Before leaving the house, he took a look at the calendar and found that today was December 6th.
Time flies! Is it almost Chinese New Year again? Fujiwara Yuu had no thoughts about New Year's Eve. He grabbed his black suit jacket from the sofa, opened the door to his hotel room, and headed downstairs via the fire escape.
Although the rooms at the Mika Hotel are a bit old, the transportation nearby is very convenient. The surrounding facilities are particularly well-equipped. There is a commercial street at the back door of the hotel, and adjacent to the commercial street is a food street with several izakayas.
Wearing a black suit, Fujiwara Yu looked like a salaryman who had just got off work. He randomly picked an izakaya and as soon as he stepped into the store, he saw a slightly drunk uncle asking a junior high school girl for beer with his hands clasped together. After noticing the girl's appearance, he quickly looked away.
Tokyo is really small. The little girl who used to cry a lot after not seeing her for four years has grown up.
"Dad, you're already very drunk and can't drink anymore! And we need to be a little tighter on food expenses this month, right? You haven't received any commissions for a week. If you keep going like this, Mom will never come home again!" Mao Lilan, who had high bangs, looked at her father helplessly. He had clearly agreed to take her out for a simple meal, but her father couldn't resist the temptation of plum wine, making the already limited living expenses even tighter.
Fujiwara Yu, who had to sit at the next table because there were no empty seats, had a hint of a smile in his eyes after hearing the girl's complaints about her father. However, this smile quickly turned into loneliness and envy. He was lonely because he was the only one left in his family, and envious that he could interact with his relatives like friends.
After hearing his daughter's "undermining" words, the slightly tipsy Maori Kogoro quickly refuted:
"Are you kidding me? Even if she's at home, she can't possibly make such delicious food, okay? Seriously, why do you keep mentioning that woman? The wine in my hand doesn't even taste good anymore."
"Dad, what are you talking about?" Mao Lilan asked with a kind smile and tilted her head, but her raised fist did not look friendly, and the bulging muscles on her arms seemed more like a threat.
Maori Kogoro knew his daughter was angry when he saw this. Worried that she would really punch him, he smiled awkwardly and changed the subject:
"I didn't say anything. Xiaolan, can you let me have another drink? I promise I won't drink anymore after this one."
With her arms folded across her chest, Mao Lilan silently calculated the price of a glass of plum wine in her mind, and made sure that there would be no deficit in living expenses. Then she nodded and agreed to her father's wish to have another glass.
Fujiwara Yuu, who was sitting nearby holding the menu, had good hearing and naturally heard every word the father and daughter said. He closed the menu, looked at the waiter standing beside him, and said politely:
"Hello, please give me one edamame, one salt-grilled chicken skewers, two thick-cut beef tongues, and a bottle of Umenoyado plum wine on the rocks."
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment. I'll take your order right away."
The appetizers were a perfect match with the iced plum wine. When the meal was served, he was ready to feast on it. However, just as he picked up the snack to take a bite of the thick-cut beef tongue, the cell phone on the table vibrated without any courtesy, preventing him from enjoying the food.
When Fujiwara Yu saw that the caller ID was "White", he did not dare to neglect it, because he knew that White had recently gone to investigate the black man with long curly hair who had contact with Scotch Whisky, so he directly turned the volume of his mobile phone to the lowest before answering the call.
"Mr. Clare, I'm following Scotch Whisky. I've found that he has entered the alley and hasn't come out yet. Do you need any further information?" White asked while sitting in the car fifty meters away from the alley entrance.
"No need. I'll find you wherever you are." Fujiwara Yu said this with a smile in a normal tone, so as not to arouse suspicion from people around him. You know, the little girl just mentioned the word "commission". This alcoholic uncle is probably a private detective by profession. He doesn't want to be the uncle's first person to be investigated in two weeks.
White heard the noise in the background and said briefly:
"2-19 Hatchobori, Chuo-ku. The target hasn't left the alley yet."
"Okay, I'll pick you up right away."
Fujiwara Yuu deliberately raised his voice and finished speaking, then hurriedly stood up and put his faded black suit jacket back on. Pretending to be in a hurry, he walked quickly to the cashier, opened his wallet, paid the bill, and pushed the door open to leave.
The waitress had clearly not anticipated someone leaving for an urgent matter, leaving a table of untouched food. She was about to clean up when the man sitting next to her, Kogoro Mouri, transformed into a gibbon and quickly moved the food to his own table. He then proceeded to drink, as his daughter and the waitress watched in amazement.
