Hearing Mizukami Cheya's request, the two police officers carrying the safe subconsciously put the safe on the ground and said helplessly: "Inspector Mizukami, is there any problem?"
"No problem."
Shui Shang Che also walked over, and the sunlight coming in through the glass door shone on his slightly pale face, making him look alive. Unlike the people around him who were anxious and relieved, he was completely focused on the small glass box inside the suitcase-style safe, as if he had seen something incredible.
Takagi Wataru and Sato Miwako, who had received gems from Mizukami Tetsuya and heard him talk about commissions, stopped and turned to look at the same time.
The thin and silent young man took out the glass box gently, as if there was a bubble in front of him that would shatter at the touch. Caution was written all over his face. Slowly, he moved the gem into the sunlight.
The silver bracelet elegantly hooks the hollowed-out top of the gemstone. The watch cover, which has not yet been closed, gleams like honey in the sunlight. The dark purple gemstone is like a rippling purple ocean, reflecting bright colors at different angles in the sunlight. The hollowed-out part of the chain and the watch cover is marked with the letters "WK" with the same purple diamonds.
He suddenly squatted down and didn't move.
"My younger brother also has a similar purple pocket watch. If nothing goes wrong, he will probably keep it safe and wear it."
Miwako Sato still remembers that at the hospital, Mizukami Che, who looked a little haggard, showed them the aqua blue pocket watch as if he was holding the most precious thing in his life, and a rare hint of tenderness appeared in his usually cold eyes.
"If you have any clues, please let me know."
At that time, she agreed very easily, but when she saw it now, she suddenly felt that she had done nothing and instead took such a precious gem for nothing.
So, my younger brother must be very, very important to him.
Miwako Sato subconsciously touched the handcuffs in her arms.
Takagi Wataru has seen a little more than Sato Miwako. He has witnessed a series of unusual actions by Mizukami Tetsuya and his almost hostile conversations with the tall man on the cable car. He also knows that the relationship between "Suzumiya Kazuki" and Mizukami Tetsuya is not just a brother's.
But no matter how you think about it, why did the pocket watch that the Mizukami family mentioned at the time, which should never leave their bodies, become the fuse of this murder case, and even become an exhibit that the Suzuki Group bid for at a high price——
It’s all very unreasonable.
It's even enough to make one's heart skip a beat, as if suddenly caught in a heavy rain, leaving one at a loss.
"Water Police Officer..." Takagi Shige was about to call him, but was pulled back by a big hand. Morobushi Kagemitsu and Matsuda Jinpei suddenly appeared behind him.
Zhufu Jingguang also looked a little haggard, as he was the one who grabbed him.
"What happened?" he asked in a low voice.
Takagi Wataru hesitated for a moment: "The gem that the Suzuki Group bought from overseas this time... seems to belong to the younger brother of the marine police officer."
"Ryoumiya and Shu?" Zhufu Jingguang was stunned for a moment.
He looked over subconsciously and saw Shui Shang Che squatting with his back to them. The sunlight slid from his head to his feet, dividing him into light and shadow. His expression could not be seen.
"Mr. Mizukami hasn't had breakfast today..." Morobuki Kagemitsu muttered subconsciously, "It's easy to get dizzy if you squat for a long time."
Inspector Megure saw that none of his subordinates had caught up with him, so he shouted at the top of his voice: "What are you doing? We have a report to write when we get back!"
"Coming, coming!" Sato Miwako and Takagi Wataru looked at each other, but hesitated and left the room and chased after him.
Matsuda Jinpei was silent for a while, then patted Morobushi Jingguang on the shoulder and said, "I don't know how you became this kind of person in the past few years. But, well, let's meet again if we are lucky enough."
"Well, goodbye." Morobushi Kagemitsu smiled, "Matsuda Jinpei."
It seemed like they had returned to the past, and the two of them clenched their fists and touched each other lightly.
However, when Matsuda Jinpei turned around and tried to leave, two police officers standing nearby, looking at each other in bewilderment, came over and said, "Officer Matsuda! The safe hasn't been taken out yet."
"Ah, this." Matsuda Jinpei lifted his sunglasses to the top of his head, revealing the scar at the corner of his eye. He shrugged and said, "I'll wait with you guys."
"No need." Mizukami Che also stood up, carefully put the box back into the safe, locked it, and carried it to the door. He said to everyone, "You go back first. I will stay here for two more days. The report will be sent to Officer Megure."
His voice was slightly hoarse, and people were used to his frequent coughing and did not suspect anything. However, Fu Jingguang keenly sensed that something was wrong.
After Matsuda Jinpei and others left, Morobushi Kagemitsu forcibly pulled him back to the room and brought him a bowl of hot porridge and some buns.
After closing the door again, Zhu Fu Jingguang looked helplessly at Shui Shang Cheye who was sitting at the table without even picking up his chopsticks and staring at the wall in front of him. He advised: "Eat some breakfast first to fill his stomach. He will be fine."
"Mr. Mizukami?"
“…”
"It won't help if you just sit there like this." Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed and sat down next to him. "Our detective agency promised to help you find the person, and we will definitely find him completely."
There seemed to be a layer of watery light in Shui Shang Cheye's dark eyes. He slightly covered his eyes with his scratched hands and said in an unnaturally hoarse voice: "No..."
"What can't you do?"
“It won’t be okay.”
Seeing that Shui Shangche was finally willing to talk, Zhu Fujingguang poured a cup of hot water, put it in his hand somewhat forcefully, and asked: "Can you tell me?"
After thinking about it, he quietly turned on the recording device with his hands behind his back.
"This matter is a bit long." Shui Shang Che also sighed, lowered his right hand from in front of his eyes, held the water cup in both hands and slightly moistened his dry lips. His eyes were slightly red, and he must have been very upset.
"You can talk about it slowly." Zhu Fu Jingguang said in a gentle and persuasive tone, "For example, start with the gemstone."
The short conversation with Matsuda Jinpei did indeed trigger his dusty memories, and most of the missing memories of Morobushi Kagemitsu have been remembered. Compared to when he was first taken in by the Armed Detective Agency and knew nothing, recalling his thrilling experiences in the Black Organization, Morobushi Kagemitsu could not deny that he now knows more methods than he did yesterday.
Even for Mizukami Che, who was still a little dazed, he dared to try using some tricks in his speech.
In the end... getting more information about Suzumiya Kazuki and the Mizukami family wouldn't harm him.
I don't know whether Mr. Dazai can receive the signal.
…
Dazai Osamu could indeed hear it. Not only could he hear it, but everyone around him could hear it as well.
Gojo Satoru and Yuji Itadori sat facing each other with Dazai Osamu and Nakajima Atsushi, with a small receiver placed in the middle.
"It has been confirmed that the Suzumiya Kazuki you are looking for is not the same person we are looking for." Dazai Osamu tapped the table lightly. "The problem lies in how much information Morofu-kun can get from Mizukami Tetsuya."
Gojo Satoru ruffled Yuji Itadori's pink fur and said with a smile, "Why are you so nervous? Suzumiya is much better at running away than you are, nothing will happen."
"As for gemstones... how should I put it? They are like amulets passed down in the family."
Mizukami Chetsuya's voice came from the loudspeaker, and the four of them fell silent instantly.
"Our Mizukami family does have some origins with sorcerers, but that was a long time ago." Mizukami Cheya spoke slowly, obviously thinking seriously, "Because the family is more concerned about bloodline, they are not very willing to marry outsiders, but those who have studied modern biology know that this is not a good custom."
"When every member of the tribe is born, the elders of the tribe will personally carve a gemstone amulet. It is usually a pocket watch, necklace or ring, which is easy to carry. It contains certain blessings and the ability to avoid disasters. The tribe has a motto that one must not leave the amulet until death, otherwise it will cause great disaster."
Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't help asking, "What disaster?"
"I don't know either." Shui Shang Cheye said softly, "I only know that if someone robs our family's gem and keeps it with him, he will become weaker and weaker, and his energy will be devoured by the gem. So when the time comes, I will buy this gem back from the Suzuki Group."
"How should I put it? This is already considered a cursed tool."
Dazai glanced at Gojo Satoru, who explained, "Cursive tools are equipment that can carry or have their own cursed power. They are relatively expensive and are divided into different grades. I haven't seen the gems he mentioned, but they should be of good quality."
Mizukami Che continued, "There are only... two of us in this generation, so Kazuki and I are the only ones who have pocket watches. The watch I saw this time is definitely his."
Zhu Fu Jingguang opened his mouth, wanting to persuade him not to worry too much.
But he couldn't say it.
Mizukami Cheye's few words of explanation have already made clear the importance of this pocket watch to them.
Why would my brother’s personal belongings, which he never took off, be auctioned overseas?
Morofushi Jingguang subconsciously put this relationship between himself and his best friend, and a feeling of suffocation suddenly emerged.
Shui Shang Che also seemed to realize that what he said was meaningless. He sighed lightly, said sorry, and the light in his eyes went out: "So, there is no need to proceed with this commission. I will personally check the origin of this pocket watch."
"That organization you mentioned that might harm me was probably just an excuse." He chuckled, "Thank you for taking care of me these past few days."
Zhu Fu Jingguang gave a rather bitter smile: "I am sorry for you."
So many things have been hidden, so many things have been misunderstood, and so many mistakes have been made.
"Let's have breakfast first."
…
There was no more conversation coming from the signal receiver. Dazai Osamu said angrily, "Zhu Fu is still too soft-hearted. It's clear that Shui Shangche has a lot of things to hide."
Gojo Satoru put his hands on his chin and looked at the two people in front of him whose power systems were completely different from his own: "You said that the Suzumiya Kazuki you knew didn't have superpowers, but he lived in the Yokohama port mafia for a long time and even became an executive."
"Assuming that the owner of the pocket watch is someone you know, where would the pocket watch of the Suzumiya boy wandering around Tokyo be?"
Yuji Itadori glanced at the signal receiver and said hesitantly, "Didn't he say there were only two cursed tools in total?"
"Maybe Mizukami Tetsu himself didn't know whether he should escape or not." Dazai Osamu said, "He obviously hesitated for a long time on the word 'two', as if he was waiting for Morobushi Kagemitsu to notice."
Nakajima Atsushi continued, "Mr. Morobushi seems to have skipped it completely."
"So why is he so stupid!" Dazai Osamu said with a click of his tongue, "It's obvious that if he asked, there would be an answer."
Gojo Satoru exclaimed, "Ah!" "That's how it is. Since everyone has a talisman from birth, then it's impossible for Suzumiya to not have one."
"But isn't he dead?" Yuji Itadori said tangledly, "Can the cursed spirit be considered alive..."
"He can't see cursed spirits, and attacks from cursed spirits and cursed powers are ineffective against him." Gojo Satoru changed his posture and placed one hand on the table. "Maybe it's another strange power system?"
Seeing that Dazai Osamu was also subconsciously thinking in this direction, he shouted, "Hey, how about we try exchanging treatment?"
"I'll take some time to go back and check if there are any files related to the Mizukami family, and then go to places where there are clues to find the person you mentioned. If you have time, go to Tokyo and see if there is a boy who reads a 'notebook' all day long."
"make a deal."
The author has something to say: I burst into tears after writing one chapter of Speed. If there is no update at 12 noon tomorrow, it may be that I haven’t gotten up yet.
I haven't written the original double-page book yet. I calculated that I got up this morning and typed from midnight, and I only wrote a little over 10,000 words...
Too bad!
