Chapter 29 Jingguang: Further Investigation—Further Report—…
Gin's attitude of kicking them out was obvious, which forced the codenamed members, who had originally wanted to stay a little longer, to leave dejectedly and prepare for the next operation.
Morofushi Kagemitsu didn't have this worry, and he sensed something different in Meiro's parting words. When had that girl ever cared about calling the police? She'd only complain that it was too hard to recoup the cost of the husky's destruction. As for anything else, she might even think the scene wasn't big enough, not spectacular enough.
But she brought this up specifically today, could it be... that she said it to me on purpose?
At times like this, a little "wishful thinking" is quite necessary; perhaps a little more thought will yield more results. With this question in mind, combined with the information Mei Luo had given him to investigate the Explosives Division, he felt this matter was not simple. Perhaps he should check the inventory of those weapons depots in Tokyo, especially their bomb reserves.
Why does it feel like the workload is piling up? And a lot of unnecessary work is being done by these "colleagues" themselves!
Zhu Fujingguang glared at the group of scoundrels in the action team, who were preparing to cause trouble everywhere.
Sooner or later, I'll lock you all up in jail!
After most of the people had left, Gin and Vodka prepared to go back to rest and recuperate. The only one who hadn't joined in the trouble, Dai Moroboshi, also planned to leave.
"Ray."
Seizing the opportunity, Morobuchi Kagemitsu called out to the man. He hadn't forgotten there was still a layabout criminal here. He had to find him something to do, and perhaps try to extract some information from him as well.
Ray naturally remembered him and nodded in greeting: "Scotland."
Morofushi Kagemitsu, wanting to find out his whereabouts first, asked, "You don't have any missions lately, do you?"
"Didn't you hear what Gin said?" Ray's probing gaze fell on him. "What, do you have a mission to send out?"
Morobuchi Kagemitsu smiled and said, "It's not really a mission, but it is a collaboration."
Rae raised an eyebrow and said, "You want to drag me to find Gin again?" He decisively refused, "Then you've come to the wrong person. I don't want to act with them."
Morofushi Kagemitsu waved his hand gently and said, "It has nothing to do with Gin. I wanted to ask you to go on a mission with me." He then added, "My mission."
"You?" Lei asked, somewhat puzzled.
“Yes, as you know, when you’re doing business, you’ll always encounter some unreasonable people,” said Morofushi Kagemitsu. “In these situations, you need to use other methods to teach them to be reasonable.”
Ray silently put his hands in his pockets. He already understood the hidden meaning in those words and asked, "How do you calculate it?"
"Intelligence, commissions, even favors are all acceptable." Morofushi Kagemitsu appeared very generous, but what he said was vague and without any standards, giving the impression of just making empty promises.
Ray wasn't stupid, and of course he didn't want to be taken advantage of: "You have to give me a straight answer."
Then he remembered the fabricated information Scotland had given him when he asked about Shirley.
Ugh, this is annoying.
Morofushi Kagemitsu remained calm and countered, "I thought we had already reached an understanding in America?"
He was naturally aware that he had withheld information from Ray, but recalling the many details of their time in America, he decided to use this incident to test Ray's character. If this man truly still had some conscience, as he suspected, perhaps there would be a chance to turn him to his side in the future.
As expected, Lei fell silent. He took out a cigarette case from his pocket, but didn't light it; he just put it in his mouth. After half a minute of silence, he finally said, "We can cooperate."
Morobuchi Kagemitsu breathed a sigh of relief, extended his hand with a smile, and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate with you."
With hands clasped, the contract is made!
The two reached an agreement in a civilized manner, exchanging a few words before returning to their respective safe houses to rest. The rest area fell completely silent, save for the club's surveillance cameras mechanically moving, watching the last two codenamed members depart.
Melo leaned back in his office chair, turned around, and looked at the scene on the screen with a disdainful "humph".
"You're so disobedient..."
She picked up the half-full glass of lemonade that had been poured to please her, held the glass up to her eyes, and suddenly, without warning, smashed the glass onto her trembling subordinate.
The subordinates dared not speak, not even breathe loudly, and simply reached out and picked up the shards of glass from the ground.
"Tsk."
Morofushi Kagemitsu looked at his finger, where an inconspicuous scratch was slowly oozing blood.
He sucked on his finger as he went to the kitchen to get a broom, thinking that he was going to talk to President Uemura tomorrow, and a injured finger was not a good sign. However, what he heard in his Bluetooth headset was a completely different, lively scene.
The anti-fraud team was discussing what had just happened in the club's rest area. When they saw that he had cut himself while picking up glass, Anti-fraud Team Member #26 thoughtfully compared the pros and cons of various band-aid brands for him.
Morofushi Kagemitsu, who had hoped to find some peace by blocking out his hearing, sighed heavily.
While Anti-Fraud King No. 66 and Anti-Fraud King No. 19 were still discussing which stock to heavily invest in based on stock market K-lines, Anti-Fraud King No. 11 had already reached the next level and was giving a long-winded explanation of the impact that Trump's crazy tariff increases would have on the stock market.
[They can use insider information to make money.]
You can't always win!
Seeing that two electronic female voices and one electronic male voice were about to start arguing in his mind again, he quickly gave them a new task:
Let's analyze how many bombs Gin can use in his mission in Tokyo.
He had barely finished thinking it to himself when the silent anti-fraud commander-in-chief began his diligent work:
[Searching...]
[The organization has 63 weapons depots in Tokyo, 42 of which are currently locked, and 8 of which have not yet had their dynamic combination locks replaced.]
[Analyzing Gin's course of action...]
[The six weapon depots most likely to be used by Gin have been marked on the map. The selected six depots have a total explosives storage capacity of 37.21 kg.]
Wait, how much?
Did he hear that right? How could the organizers only have a little over 30 kilograms of explosives in these warehouses?
[This has been repeatedly confirmed and calculated; the calculation error is between 0.005% and 0.007%.]
Upon receiving this result, he stopped sweeping the floor and stood in front of the cutting board, poking at the broom, lost in thought.
After much deliberation, Anti-Fraud Expert #214 offered valuable advice: [Eating beef so early in the morning is indeed not a good idea.]
With a blank expression, Morobushi Kagemitsu stuffed the discounted beef he had just bought back into the refrigerator, and casually threw the expired curry left on the side of the refrigerator into the food waste bin.
Because the bomb problem was constantly troubling him, he couldn't help but think of his two very troublesome colleagues who worked in the bomb disposal team.
Speaking of which, what have Matsuda and Hagiwara been up to these past few days?
They promised not to pursue this matter further, so they probably won't investigate it privately... right?
[Based on calculations, the probability that Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji conducted a private investigation is 93.32%]
What's the difference between this and definitely going?
Zhu Fujingguang closed his eyes.
He should have realized it sooner; those two thrill-seeking thrill-seekers who could never sit still and be considered safe and sound were never the kind of people who could stay put.
[The probability of getting clues by contacting them next week is 97.3%. If you're willing to follow Anti-Fraud Guru 214's suggestion and bring some homemade dishes when you meet them, the probability of getting clues will increase by 0.2%.]
...
Good suggestion, but rejected.
He recently arranged to team up with others to intimidate and deceive those capitalists, so it's best not to leave too many traces. If he discovers that he has connections with the police, that would be disastrous.
Besides, this is Tokyo.
What if this person really notices something, and the joint intelligence team conducts a thorough search, visiting each household to dig up all their past? Physical traces can be erased, but human memory cannot.
[Anti-fraud expert #198 possesses the latest brainwashing techniques; the success rate of the procedure is...]
Stop! Stop! Stop!
Even if you're an undercover agent, there's no need to turn yourself into a real terrorist!
[Anti-fraud expert #198 stated that brainwashing techniques are targeted at criminals and will not affect innocent ordinary citizens.]
Alright, we haven't been exposed yet, so any further discussion is just a backup plan. The most important thing now is to get tomorrow's mission with Lai sorted out.
Well then, Hagiwara and Matsuda, just wait for my interrogation!
A note from the author:

Jingguang (stretching his limbs and revealing a healthy smile): He should have known. How could those two possibly be so obedient...
