Chapter 4 The First Player

This tone... If he didn't know who it was, Xi Haiqing Dou wouldn't be able to tell whether he was a kind-hearted person who wanted to catch a thief or a robber who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to rob.

【This is a real surprise. 】

He and the system sighed, and subconsciously touched the eavesdropping device that he had moved to his coat pocket.

The car window did not move, he just opened the door.

A handsome young man with black curly hair was holding a yellow-haired boy with his head drooped and covering his head in one hand, and in the other hand he was holding Xi Haiqingdou's cell phone, wallet and a plastic shopping bag. He stood in front of the car with great momentum.

Although he looks a bit fierce, it is obvious that he is a good person.

——Of course, what was more important was that he saw the name "Jinpei Matsuda" clearly written above the man's head.

One of the special functions provided by the system: All characters that appear and have roles in the original comics will have their corresponding identities and names displayed in Xihai Qingdou's eyes.

Unfortunately, players are an exception - after all, players are from other worlds and are not completely compatible with this world.

However, although it is a bit troublesome, we can determine the identities of some players from another perspective through the process of elimination.

"Ah, it's mine, thank you so much." He got out of the car and reached for the shopping bag from Jinpei Matsuda's hand.

"But aren't you afraid of finding the wrong person?"

"There's no one else around here except you, right? And it's not like this guy couldn't recognize the person he robbed."

Matsuda Jinpei replied unhappily, Isn't this obvious?

"Check it yourself to see if anything is missing. And next time you get robbed, don't rush to leave. At least you can call the police, right?"

Did she think he was the kind of person who, after being robbed, kept silent and simply gave up and left?

Xi Haiqingdou was silent for a moment. He raised the phone in his hand and shook it. "Nothing is missing. But officer, did you misunderstand something? My phone has a locator. I just wanted to find him based on the location. It's more convenient to drive."

He looked down at the yellow-haired man whose expression became even more regretful, and said with a smile: "I just didn't expect to meet a kind-hearted person like you in the middle of the night. I'm really lucky."

"Huh? Locator?" Matsuda Jinpei looked at him in surprise.

"Yeah, I installed it myself. There shouldn't be any law that says you can't do something on your phone, right?" Xi Haiqing Dou looked at him innocently.

Matsuda Jinpei twitched his lips. It's true that there is no law that stipulates this, but the problem is that no normal person would do this, right?

"As long as you don't install it in someone else's phone, and it's none of my business," he said.

Matsuda Jinpei glanced at Saikai Haruto and did not doubt the truth of his words.

The young man in front of him had long white hair and golden eyes. Although he had a handsome appearance, his face looked very pale, with a faint blue under his eyes. His body was also thinner than that of an ordinary man.

Following his raised hand, Matsuda Jinpei could even clearly see the light blue and light purple blood vessels on his wrist.

This guy looks like the type who is weak and often sick. His family is probably afraid that something might happen to him, so it makes sense that he would do this.

Xi Haiqingdou smiled and said, "Officer, do you need me to take a statement with you now?"

The yellow-haired boy in Matsuda Jinpei's hand raised his head and looked at him in panic, tears streaming down his face: "Hey, spare me, I'm only 17 years old, I don't want to go to jail!"

Matsuda Jinpei's eyes widened: "Really? I just came back from overtime."

He lifted the yellow hair in his hand and reminded him: "This kid is still a minor. If you want to forgive him, he will probably be fine after staying in there for a few days."

Then he said with an unhappy "tsk", "But judging from the look of this guy, this is definitely not the first time he has done this."

“Why should I choose to forgive?”

Xi Hai Qing Dou laughed and revealed his half-moon eyes: "Whether you are an adult or not, if you do something wrong, you have to pay the price. This is a truth that even three or four-year-old children know, right? If you choose to do this, you must be aware of the consequences. Do I look like the Holy Father?"

The yellow-haired boy twisted his body even more violently, and this time he really cried. Unfortunately, his hands were tied tightly behind his back by Matsuda Jinpei, so he couldn't do anything. Saikai Haruto was also hard-hearted, and ignored him no matter how loudly he screamed.

Matsuda Jinpei unexpectedly gave him a look of admiration, "You guys are not bad at all."

In fact, even if Xi Haiqing Dou chose to forgive him, he would not say anything, but what he said was quite to his liking.

"Yuyuan Chiaki, my name," he said.

This is also the original name of "Cointreau".

"Jinpei Matsuda." As a courtesy, Matsuda also gave his own name.

"Matsuda? The Mazda from Mazda Motors?"

Xihai Qingdou's eyes lit up slightly.

"It's Matsuda, not that Mazda." Matsuda Jinpei's eyes were half-mooned, and it was obvious that this was not the first time he had explained it so skillfully.

"Okay, Officer Matsuda." Haruto Nishimi nodded with a smile.

I know it, but this is happening right in front of the real-life version of Jinpei Matsuda. Wouldn't it be a shame not to play with this joke?

It’s just a pity that the car Matsuda drove was not a Mazda.

When I finished taking the statement and came out of the police station, it was already nearly two o'clock in the morning. The moonlight was dim, and only a few street lights were still on, and there was not a single person in sight on the street.

Haruto Nishimi pressed his brows and was about to drive back, but was stopped by Jinpei Matsuda.

"Hey, where do you live?" Matsuda Jinpei threw him a can of coffee. "You're not planning on just driving back like this, are you?"

Raising his hand to take the coffee, Xi Haiqing Dou reported a location near the base, and then looked at him blankly: "What's the problem?"

The organization's base is just an ordinary company in the eyes of the outside world, and no one knows what it looks like inside, so he has nothing to hide.

It was actually almost as close to where he lived now... Jinpei Matsuda was silent for a moment, rubbed his hair, and asked him, "Where are your car keys?"

"What?"

As if Nishimi Haruto hadn't reacted yet, he handed over the key and coffee in a daze.

At the same time, I sighed in my heart: [System, Matsuda is really a good person. ]

System: [Matsuda is a good person. ]

If he wasn't a good guy, he wouldn't have died alone in the Ferris wheel in the original book.

Saikai Haruto: [No, that's not what I meant... Oh, I didn't expect that the second person to drive Gin's car would be Matsuda. I don't know who got the advantage.]

The system wonders: [Why does Matsuda drive Gin's car? ]

Matsuda Jinpei's mouth twitched: "I meant the car key, not the coffee. Forget it... Let's go, I'll take you home."

He took the key from Xi Haiqing Dou's hand and turned to walk towards the location of the car.

This guy... looking at his pale and listless face and the sleepy look on his face, if he were to drive back by himself, Matsuda Jinpei had no doubt that he would fall asleep while driving and get into a car accident, and end up in the hospital.

"...Oh, okay. Thank you very much, Officer Matsuda."

Xi Hai Qing Dou blinked, spoke slowly, and took the coffee back.

He smiled and explained to the system in his heart: [Because Matsuda is a good person. ]

System: [……] It feels that the host is talking nonsense literature to it.

After getting in the car, Matsuda Jinpei reminded him: "Fasten your seat belt."

Seeing him fasten his seat belt and then close his eyes, Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but look at him again: Come to think of it, isn't this guy too careless? He just handed the car keys to him without asking. Aren't they afraid that he will do something secretly?

As soon as the black Porsche started smoothly, Matsuda's attention was instantly diverted. He couldn't help but exclaim: "Has this car been modified?" It felt so silky smooth.

"Oh, yes, this is my colleague's car. He likes this antique. It took me more than half a month to transform it. I didn't sleep for more than 40 hours in a row."

Saikai Haruto yawned and spoke vaguely.

Although there is no causal relationship between modifying Gin's car and him not sleeping for more than 40 hours, it does not prevent him from talking about the two things together.

"Did you modify this car yourself?" Jinpei Matsuda looked at him in surprise.

He hadn't slept for more than 40 hours straight. No wonder he looked like he was about to die.

Nishimi Haruto still kept his eyes closed, and only nodded affirmatively, "I'm quite good at this. If Officer Matsuda wants to modify a car to have a cell phone or something like that in the future, you can come to me, and I can give you a discount as an acquaintance."

"I have a childhood friend who is also quite good at these things." Thinking of his good friend Kenji Hagiwara, Jinpei Matsuda smiled.

Just when he was about to say something, he turned around and saw Matsuda Jinpei speechless again: He wasn't pretending to sleep, was he? This guy actually just slept like this?

When they arrived at the destination, seeing that he was still not awake, Matsuda Jinpei shook Saikai Haruto's arm a few times and said, "Hey, Yuen, wake up, we're here."

Xi Haiqingdou's muscles tensed for a moment, and then relaxed in an instant. He rubbed his eyes and yawned again. "Are we there yet?"

"We're here." Matsuda Jinpei looked at him speechlessly. "You're really too careless, aren't you? You trust strangers so easily. How did you grow up? Aren't you afraid that I'll just find a place to throw you out?"

I don’t know if it was Saikai Haruto’s illusion, but he actually felt that there was a hint of regret in Matsuda Jinpei’s tone.

"No, I'm very good at judging people."

He smiled and said with an innocent look on his face: "I am still wary of strangers, but Officer Matsuda is a good person... I saw it at first sight."

Matsuda Jinpei scoffed at his words: "Bad guys don't write the word 'bad guy' on their faces. Even the police have bad guys."

Saikai Haruto smiled and nodded again: "Officer Matsuda is right, I understand."

[Tong, you see how right Matsuda is… Isn’t it the case in Canada? On the surface, the undercover police officer appears to be righteous and awe-inspiring, but who would have thought that he is actually a double-faced undercover agent? This shows that there are also bad guys among the police. It’s a pity that Furuya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu don’t know this.]

This time the system did not refute him, but took him at his word: [Host, you are right.]

The system treats all "players" in this world equally, which is deeply hateful and painful.

"Okay, I'm leaving. You'd better not drive this way, or else something will happen and I'll have driven this way for nothing."

After waving his hand at him, Matsuda Jinpei turned around and left without even saying goodbye.

Looking at his carefree back as he walked away, Xihai Qingdou's eyes gradually became clear and cold, the smile on his face disappeared, and he no longer looked tired and lazy as before.

He whispered, "Goodbye, Officer Jinpei Matsuda."

As if by magic, he pulled out a small eavesdropping device from his body and spoke softly, "Tonight is a very interesting night, what do you think, Bourbon? But you'd better not do it next time, okay? Fortunately, the police officer didn't notice anything unusual.

It’s getting late now, and I need to go to bed. How about we end this listening session for now?”

He loosened his fingers and threw the ineffective eavesdropping device out of the car window.

Overall, today was a very fulfilling evening... Oh, I don't know if Rei Furuya is satisfied with this little "surprise".
