Chapter 146 Poirot Cafe Booked Out! ...
He didn't actually connect Paloma's situation to the undercover operation until Natori Haruki mentioned that people in the Public Security Bureau were unsafe, at which point he raised the alert.
After he gave some perfunctory hints, he didn't expect that the truth would actually come out.
Now, he regrets not informing Mr. Jin Quan immediately so that Paloma could be secured by their group.
But if we bring it up now, it would be like revealing that "the police did indeed send infiltrators," and it would be hard to say how the organization would react.
After playing the role of a riddle teller and spouting a bunch of seemingly plausible but ultimately ambiguous statements, Morofushi Kagemitsu finally left Nanyang University.
[Anti-fraud expert #148: I underestimated Paloma. I initially thought she was just an ordinary codename member, but I didn't expect her to be so efficient. Only a day has passed, and she's already finalized the fake death plan.]
[Anti-fraud expert #11: Perhaps she had already been considering leaving the organization, but she just happened to receive the hint we gave her on Black Guest, so she played along.]
[Anti-fraud expert #19: The only bad thing is that she ran into us. After being taken to the police station, she happened to be targeted by that bottle of liquor that had smuggled in. Otherwise, after this series of moves, she probably would have already escaped.]
Morofushi Kagemitsu nodded silently, signaling to Anti-Fraud King to drive, and then began to revise his own plan.
For now, he's keeping the people on the Natori side calm. He'll have the anti-fraud team build a targeted defense for the organization to stop the hacker behind them.
For Paloma, the most urgent task now is not to follow up on intelligence, but to find the bottle of liquor hidden among the police, and then, with the help of his own people, make Paloma appear "dead" in the eyes of the organization.
[Anti-fraud expert #66: Here comes another one faking their death. It's only because the crime rate in Mihua is increasing year by year that we can't afford this constant stream of scams.]
[Anti-fraud expert #214: Why don't you meet with Mr. Jin Quan earlier? I have a feeling that if this case drags on until tomorrow, something even more unexpected might happen.]
Thinking of the magical feng shui of Mihua, even the leader of the Electronic God Cult hesitated for a moment before taking out his phone to prepare for battle.
He thought for a moment and decided to first have the anti-fraud officer contact Mr. Jin Quan to reach an effective communication as soon as possible. He then called Melo—any of these old foxes in the organization could send an undercover agent, but the possibility of her sending someone was the least. Paloma was her prey, and now that someone had interfered, he didn't believe Melo could swallow this insult.
If they're lucky, and it happens to be someone Brandy and his men sent out, Melo could even use that to his advantage to launch a legitimate attack, without having to be so careful with the force he uses...
It wouldn't be bad if it were someone else; a more thorough internal division would be more beneficial to his long-term plans. In any case, he didn't mind stirring up internal conflicts within the organization.
[Anti-fraud expert #205: Mr. Jin Quan replied, saying we can meet anytime today; you can decide the specifics.]
very good.
Morofushi Kagemitsu looked towards the street and his gaze fell on a coffee shop.
Let's leave it here.
The alpacas followed his gaze, and all the information about the coffee shop was imprinted in his mind.
We'll meet Mr. Jin Quan here in two hours. Before then, you can use any spare moments to browse the forum…
[Anti-Fraud Guru #26: Poirot Cafe...?!]
A startled exclamation from the little alpaca interrupted his thoughts. It flew around Morofushi Kagemitsu once, seemingly checking if he was acting strangely.
What's wrong? Is this coffee shop not good enough?
[Anti-fraud expert #198: ...It's not that it's impossible, it's just that the location is a bit unusual.]
Because it's downstairs from the Mori Detective Agency?
[Anti-fraud expert #11: Hmm... it's not entirely because of that. But that's all in the future; right now, the state of this coffee shop doesn't matter.]
Oh? You can do whatever you want to it?
The little alpaca hurriedly approached him.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: What are you trying to do...? Jing, you can't just act rashly like this! If the whole building is gone, that's a major incident!]
...the entire building.
What are you thinking? Don't think of me like a terrorist, okay? Do you think I have the ability to summon some kind of wide-range offensive weapon for him to bombard...?
The alpacas watched him silently, their disapproval precisely reaching his mind.
...That's enough, I really don't have that authority. No undercover agent would do that!
[Anti-fraud expert #66: That's hard to say...]
[Anti-Fraud King No. 214: There was once a person who exploited a bug to hack into the electronic command system of a European country's military, and directly blew up one of the organization's laboratories.]
...
……ha?
Morofushi Kagemitsu paused in his action of replying to the text message.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Later, he himself suffered the consequences, dying less than a month later due to an "accident" orchestrated by fate.]
……oh.
[Anti-fraud expert #205: You've already experienced a half-finished future. We don't recommend you take any actions that could have a significant impact. With our current capabilities, it's difficult to guarantee you a complete corpse.]
...It's just buying Poirot Cafe, such a small change shouldn't cause any future problems, right?
The alpacas, who had been a little nervous just moments before, instantly relaxed.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: That's fine then. If you're just looking for a convenient spot to observe, this is indeed a good choice. Anyway, nobody cares who the coffee shop owner is, so it's good!]
Although the purchase of the store went smoothly, the description given by number 214 caught Zhu Fujingguang's attention. Apart from the desperate thugs in the organization who loved to watch the drama unfold, he had never heard of such an eccentric senior in their ranks.
[Anti-fraud expert #66: Yeah... none of us expected this before he pulled this trick.]
As soon as he finished speaking, the eyes of several alpacas turned to number 148, who was pretending to be very busy.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #148: ...Why are you all looking at me?! Aren't you going to do any of your work? Hurry up, get moving, everyone get moving!]
cut!
Morobuchi Kagemitsu seemed to understand the unspoken message of the alpacas.
He felt that he should remain silent at this moment and put the matter behind him, as if the conversation had never happened.
[Anti-fraud expert #214: Let's use your identity to buy it first. As for the future operation, we'll arrange it for you. I'm quite good at that. Oh, right, we also need to consider things two years from now...]
That's fine.
He doesn't have time to manage it anyway, so he feels more at ease leaving it to the anti-fraud team to operate.
As for the future... in case he really dies by accident again, it's best to get a notarized document. He doesn't want this property to fall into the hands of the organization.
[Anti-fraud expert #214: Okay, leave it to me.]
After dealing with this minor matter, I can go check out the forum...
[Anti-fraud expert #205: Oh, right! Jing, here's another application form for high-tech project subsidies. Neihai has been urging us several times to get more materials.]
Why is he pressing me again? Haven't I already submitted several versions to him? No means no. As long as I'm here, the company can forget about trying to take advantage of the government.
[Anti-fraud expert #205: OK, I understand.]
Morofushi Kagemitsu raised his phone again, ready to do something else, but was stopped again.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: What about this new experimental equipment application form? This is not only related to the supplies for each laboratory, but also closely related to the "fleecing" program we're about to apply for.]
This thing... I just handed it over to Miyamoto's secretariat to prepare. If I remember correctly, they're the ones who submit the most versions of this form.
It's probably because they never had a chance to hold that tech expo before, and they're been hoping to launch a counterattack. They're using this time-consuming and laborious task to appease him and give him some hope. Otherwise, the person they'll be bothering every day from Melo onwards will be me instead.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Okay. But are you really not planning to impose some restrictions on them?]
...Let's not rush it. Let them write a few more versions first. That way, we can stall them a few more times.
After raising his phone this time, Morobushi Kagemitsu paused, looking at the alpacas with some wariness, afraid that they would call a halt again.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #26: ...Jing, what's wrong? Why are you looking at us with such a strange expression? Um, did our skin shed some fur? No, I don't think so...]
The little alpaca watched itself spin around, and the flashing lights on the internet were both urgent and faint.
No, it's you who are strange.
Morofushi Kagemitsu sat up straight, seemingly having fully grasped the "evidence" of the alpacas' crimes and preparing for trial.
You guys seem to be constantly preventing me from visiting the forum. Every time I'm about to open the page, you come up with a bunch of excuses to distract me.
That's so strange.
You guys usually love it when I gossip, so why won't you let me see it today?
[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: Uh, well... those gossip tidbits aren't very useful anymore. Everyone on the forums is incredibly savvy; 90% of the information there is just smoke and mirrors now.]
Really? Those people have been shrewd for a long time now, they can even get useful information from gossip topics, and you guys were the ones who kept telling me this.
[Anti-fraud expert #148: Well, in short, there's nothing noteworthy on the forum right now.]
To increase its persuasiveness, this cunning little alpaca even changed its eye color to purple, its white fur to black, and blinked at him, actually cosplaying as Zero.
...All they do all day is create these fancy things. Do these little devils even know how strange a black-furred, purple-eyed alpaca is?!
Zhu Fujingguang twitched the corner of his mouth.
However, he still figured out a procedure for dealing with these simple little creatures.
He cleared his mind to avoid being read. He first pretended to be persuaded and nodded, then, taking advantage of the alpacas' momentary lapse in attention, he swiftly and decisively clicked on the forum's URL in his bookmarks.
His network connection was good, and the webpage loaded quickly.
The alpacas, who had just been fooled by this smooth little combo, all let out screams of surprise.
Yamete!
