Chapter 149 Chapter 149 Impersonation
What's going on?!
Morofushi Kagemitsu suddenly had a bad feeling, as if fate's tricks on him were not over yet.
The traffic police officer beside him was still waiting for his reply. Seeing him suddenly fall silent, the officer assumed there was something wrong with his identity and looked at him with more scrutiny and wariness.
Sensing the change in the traffic police's attitude, he had no choice but to put his hand on his forehead wound and pretend to have a headache. He also pretended to be choked by dust and coughed, which eased the suspicious gaze somewhat.
[Anti-fraud King No. 11: You can't use the identity "Midori Osamu" for now. Number 234 is currently at the amusement park with the Junior Detective League. Because our sudden transmigration triggered a warning from fate, he's activated his hibernation system to protect himself!]
A hibernation system, could it be...?
He had a bad feeling.
[Anti-fraud expert #214: Um, from a human perspective, he probably just suddenly fainted.]
Zhu Fujingguang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't die on the spot, there was still room for maneuver. He just hoped that the group of children wouldn't send him to the hospital too soon, otherwise the follow-up work would be even more troublesome.
[...]
However, it's really not appropriate to reveal Midorikawa Osamu's identity right now, so I'll just make up a name...
[Anti-fraud expert #19: State Shunsuke Goshima's name.]
ah?
If he remembers correctly, this gentleman is suspected to be the illegitimate son of the organization's boss. If he were to use this identity directly, it would be very troublesome.
[Anti-fraud expert #148: I'll explain later. Let's deal with this cop first.]
Morofushi Kagemitsu hesitated for a moment, but agreed to the proposal out of trust in the Anti-Fraud King.
Having received permission, the anti-fraud officer quickly answered the traffic police's question directly in another voice: "Shunsuke Goshima."
The traffic policeman paused, nodded, and while taking notes in his notebook, asked some other basic questions.
The anti-fraud officers responded to each of their questions, and Morobushi Kagemitsu lip-synced to their responses.
As for his appearance, everyone at the scene of the car accident was in a terrible state. He himself had a head injury and his face was covered in blood and dirt, making it impossible to recognize his original appearance.
After they dealt with the police, paramedics came forward and gave him a simple bandage. Morofushi Kagemitsu thanked them and then slowly left.
During this time, he had sorted out his thoughts and made some guesses about the current situation.
He asked the anti-fraud team directly: What do you want to do with Shunsuke Goto's identity?
[Anti-fraud King No. 66: We've obtained a secret ledger. This is the highest level of confidentiality he currently has access to. If we can get our hands on it in advance, we can not only learn about the Karasuma Group's secret transactions that can't be kept on the books, but we can even use it to suppress the influence of Secretary Miyamoto and his team.]
From what you've said, it seems that Shunsuke Goto has been doing quite well all these years. Not only did he not get rid of Melo, but he also successfully rose to power.
[Anti-fraud expert #205: Based on his experience, that's certainly true. It seems he came to the attention of the organization's higher-ups because of the Paloma faked death incident. However, there are no detailed records.]
But now that he's returned to the Karasuma family, why hasn't he changed his surname? Or is it that he hasn't fully gained their trust yet?
[Anti-fraud expert #19: Well, it seems they've approved it, but haven't announced it publicly yet. Perhaps they need someone from their own family who appears to be an "outsider" to handle some business, so they haven't changed the surname.]
He's actually quite capable; you'd never guess he was that颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it conveys a sense of listlessness, apathy, and lack of ambition) young man who asked for money in emails.
[Anti-Fraud King #214: Hmph! I think it's not hard to guess how he made his fortune; it must be closely related to us. I just saw emails from a few years ago between him and Ethan Hondou. He was quite grateful, providing us with a lot of valuable intelligence.]
Oh? I didn't expect there was one of our own here. Then his identity couldn't be more suitable.
Morofushi Kagemitsu had gained some confidence in his upcoming defection plan.
[Anti-Fraud King #26: Hehe~ Luckily, while you guys were actively trying to save yourselves on the bridge, I glanced at the illegitimate child's situation. I figured since he's someone who triggers prophetic notifications, maybe he could be of some help to us. Now it seems I was quite prescient~]
[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: ...What foresight? You were clearly too engrossed in reading gossip, and a sudden time-space rupture trapped you. If #205 hadn't spared a hand to pull you out, it would have taken a lot of energy to repair you.]
[Anti-fraud King #26: Uh, haha... that's because I was good at blocking it. Now, it's because of the gossip, no, important intelligence I saw that I've opened a channel to uncover the organization's BOSS's secrets~]
Zhu Fujingguang chuckled lightly, feeling that his injuries weren't hurting as much anymore. He glanced at the time and decided to take a taxi to the hospital first.
While waiting for the car, he didn't forget to ask about Curaçao.
With such a large member with a codename right in front of him, causing such a major car accident, he couldn't possibly ignore it.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #205: It seems a top-secret intelligence report from the Police Department was stolen by Curaçao, and the Public Security Bureau is working overtime to search for it. Furthermore, their central control system is currently being compromised by a virus; more detailed information will likely only be available after the system is repaired.]
Top secret intelligence!
Morofushi Kagemitsu's relaxed mood became tense again, and he hurriedly asked where Anti-Fraud King Curaçao was now.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: As you saw, she just jumped into the sea. We don't yet have the means to find someone from the sea; we can only keep a close eye on nearby surveillance cameras to track her movements.]
Well then, although we don't know what the situation is, since the secrecy level has been raised to top secret, we can't let it fall into the organization's hands.
[Anti-Fraud Agent #205: Don't worry, we've got your eyes on things. As soon as we spotted Curaçao, we activated the signal jammer. We said the effect would be somewhat affected immediately after landing, but the transmitted information should have already been destroyed.]
That's good.
Morofushi Hiromitsu added "finding Curaçao" to his to-do list again. If possible, he still wanted to meet this subordinate whom Rum trusted most.
According to information collected by Anti-Fraud King in the future, the management of Tottori changed after his death. Rum briefly took over for a few months, and Curaçao may know a lot about the secrets behind this.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Give me a chance to observe her carefully; maybe I can clear the "mark" Rum left in her mind.]
...That's possible, but you have to promise me you won't do anything else unnecessary.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Sure!]
After they had settled things about Curaçao, he finally got a taxi.
Under the driver's shocked gaze, Morofushi Kagemitsu gave the address of "Beika Central Hospital" and then feigned exhaustion and discomfort. It wasn't that he didn't want to find out more information; he simply needed more details about Goshima Shunsuke to prevent himself from being exposed while impersonating him.
[Anti-fraud expert #66: It's not difficult for him to play the role. It's just the kind of person who, after being humiliated, harbors resentment and turns into a hypocrite. Just act like a typical businessman, remembering to have a bit of drive and ruthlessness in your heart.]
Where is he now? We should tell him this as soon as possible to avoid any unexpected problems.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Don't worry, no, he's already dead.]
Oh, he died...
Wait! He's dead?!
Morofushi Kagemitsu froze, his head propped up by his hand, never expecting such an answer.
Explain yourself! What do you mean he died? I think you mean "died" in the sense of what I mean?
He couldn't quite understand what the anti-fraud king was thinking at this moment, and even wondered if the sudden time travel had caused problems with their logic system.
[Anti-fraud King No. 19: Yeah, the generation gap between us isn't that big, otherwise how could you understand my fanfiction? It's just normal human death.]
...
Number 19's matter-of-fact attitude left him speechless. Naturally, he was quite puzzled by this.
He's already dead, why would you ask me to mention his name? Isn't that a huge loophole? Are you saying that his death was actually staged by the organization, and that he was still doing those "works" under an assumed name?
[Anti-fraud expert #214: It's not that complicated. He died just two days ago, still very fresh. It seems he accidentally ate a poisoned dessert at a tea restaurant, and after returning home, the poison slowly took effect, causing his death. His newly hired housekeeper, fearing blame, hastily disposed of the body. He's currently missing, so you can easily use this time difference to impersonate him.]
...
This statement has many flaws, leaving him unsure of what to say next.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #148: After we finish our business using his identity, let's also catch the murderer. That would be a fair reward for all his hard work for Black Guest over the years.]
...
[Anti-fraud expert #198: I knew you'd react this way. Calm down, Jing. It's not like this is the first time you've played the "dead man."]
How can these be the same?!
You are yourself, and others are others. Not to mention that the "other person" you are now playing is someone who has penetrated deep into the Karasuma Group. The difficulty is completely different.
[Anti-fraud expert #26: But Jing is definitely fine, right?]
...Of course I will do my best to get things done.
However, I still need to confirm something with you all. Are you sure it won't suddenly reappear? Surely I don't need to buy a coffin and resurrect him, right?
[Anti-fraud expert #11: This is your exclusive treatment. He didn't plan anything for himself, so of course he wouldn't have these backup plans.]
Morobuchi Kagemitsu nodded silently in his heart, and then asked about the situation on the other side of number 234.
How is he now? Has it been revealed that he was actually a corpse?
[Anti-Fraud Guru #66: emmm...]
