Chapter 55 I look at you (them) from the window...

Morofushi Kagemitsu was unusually patient, sitting in the company until the end of the workday.

During this time, he subtly observed the movements at each entrance countless times, even having the anti-fraud team make a probability prediction that Miyamoto's secretariat would enter through each entrance. Among them, the probability of entering through the back door was as high as 82.1%.

However, even with such sincere waiting, they didn't appear in a disheveled state. Instead, he himself finished all the work that he had originally planned to divide up over the next few days, and even choked on water while witnessing a private arms deal.

Morobuchi Kagemitsu was extremely disappointed.

He decided to stop making things difficult for himself, packed his things, planned to leave work, and quietly return to being a qualified member of the Black Organization.

[Anti-fraud alert: Kenji Hagiwara has sent you a text message]

A qualified code name member will also pay attention to the movements of the police, no, the cops, at all times.

[Kenji Hagiwara: Kono was brought back by the police again this afternoon. But this time he's been reassigned; he's now being sent to answer the phone.]

So, Kono, who is suspected of being a member of the organization, has become a glorious switchboard operator. Doesn't this make it easier for him to pass on messages to the organization?

Two seconds later, the other side sent a second message.

[Kenji Hagiwara: It seems Mr. Kanekichi intends to leave things as they are, waiting for him to make the first move.]

Ah, bait, I understand.

They even planned to use passive-aggressive tactics to force him to make the first move. I've heard that this kind of tactic is usually used against newcomers with weak backgrounds, but this time, this kind of office politics has been applied to this nobody.

Forget it, the method doesn't have to be new, as long as it works.

After all, that was the kind of passive-aggressive behavior even the President of the United States couldn't tolerate. Now, He Yejun has to be like him, waiting by the phone every day, enduring until the other party calls back.

Thinking of the work atmosphere at the Ministry of Public Security, Morofushi Kagemitsu felt a mix of emotions, as if he had escaped one kind of workplace only to plunge into another.

He drove home, changed into more casual clothes, and discreetly went to an apartment building he had visited more than once.

He and his friends had a sandwich here last time.

Just as Morofushi Kagemitsu was about to walk into the apartment building, he suddenly paused.

This wasn't the first time he'd come to see Matsuda and Hagiwara like this. If he always entered openly through the door, it would inevitably leave an impression. He wasn't sure if there were any informants for the organization living in this neighborhood. If they were pawns like Kono, he wouldn't be able to explain why he kept going to see the two policemen. Besides, it was already evening, and people would be coming and going from their homes more frequently, making it even harder to keep a low profile.

[Anti-fraud expert #66: Then we'll have to disguise ourselves.]

That's even stranger, isn't it? Even someone as sociable as Hagiwara wouldn't let a one-off friend into his home.

[Anti-Fraud Guru #214: So what do you want?]

Hmm... this time we won't go through the front door, we'll climb through the window.

[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: Huh?!]

[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: You...you're really something!]

[Anti-fraud expert #148: What's wrong with that? I actually think it's a great idea. Let's go, Jingguang!]

OK~

He just had a sudden urge to practice his infiltration skills. After all, given the organization's current aggressive approach, it's likely that sooner or later they'll send him, a member of the finance team, to infiltrate the tax bureau and do something shady.

But we need to practice in advance!

He straightened his clothes, skillfully avoiding the cameras, and climbed up and up again from a very secluded corner of the courtyard wall, like a mature ibex.

Thanks to our colleagues, they rented a house on the third floor.

Morofushi Kagemitsu tried to blend in with the air conditioner unit covered by a black shroud next to him. He leaned slightly forward and peeked out of what, well, this must be their kitchen window.

From his unparalleled perspective, Matsuda and Hagiwara were both in the living room. However, Hagiwara Kenji was typing on his laptop, while Matsuda Jinpei was assembling a model next to the television.

He looked at the moonlight.

It happens to be nighttime now.

Um……

Anti-fraud expert, please do me a favor.

[(Sweating soybeans)]

Not long after...

"Ring ring ring—"

The ringing phone drew their attention, and they looked at each other. After just two seconds of eye contact, they decided that Matsuda Jinpei, who was sitting next to them, would answer it.

Is this another matchmaking event organized by Hagi?

Matsuda Jinpei thought for a moment, then put down the parts he was holding and put the receiver to his ear: "Hello?"

"Waaaaah..."

Huh? Why is it a woman crying?

Matsuda Jinpei frowned, thinking: Could it be that some woman is contemplating suicide and dialed my number to call the police? Maybe I shouldn't hand out my business card so casually in the future.

"Miss, is there anything I can help you with?" This carefree man even dared to ask that question.

As he asked that question, Kenji Hagiwara looked over as well. Usually, when girls called, they were looking for him. Judging from what Jinpei was saying, was she facing some kind of difficulty?

But the woman on the other end of the line was still crying, with the howling wind in the background.

Upon hearing the sound, Matsuda Jinpei unconsciously looked out the window—

And just like that, a human head appeared!

Long hair fluttered in the wind, seemingly clinging to the glass.

The scene was so impactful that even someone as bold as Matsuda Jinpei was momentarily stunned.

"Xiao Zhenping?"

Kenji Hagiwara followed the direction of his gaze and saw the head slowly turn and reach out a hand to tap the glass.

"Wow... Jinpei!"

Matsuda Jinpei had already come to his senses and was looking out the window with a serious expression, staring at the head that had turned half its face towards him.

That's not...

"Eh?! Little Morofushi?!"

When Kenji Hagiwara uttered that last nickname, there was even a hint of relief in his tone.

"...Tsk." Matsuda Jinpei's crescent-shaped eyes, like his click of the tongue, were a half-step slower.

"What? Morofushi, how can you be so scary..." Hagiwara Kenji had already returned to normal. He patted his chest and looked at his colleague who was pulling off the hood outside the window. In the end, helplessness prevailed.

Could it be that the pressure of being an undercover agent like Komobushi is too much, so he's trying to relax? Otherwise, there's no way to explain why he would do something so childish.

Kenji Hagiwara looked at his friend with a newfound concern.

This left Morofushi Kagemitsu, who had just entered the room, completely bewildered.

“You should use the door,” Matsuda Jinpei said, hands in his pockets. “If you’re really worried about being seen, you can climb the stairs. Consider it exercise, Mr. Asakawa from the finance department.”

"Next time for sure." Morofushi Kagemitsu didn't explain his sudden idea to the two of them, but just glossed over it. He then said, "Alright, I came to see you two because I have something rather urgent to discuss."

Since it was an urgent matter, Matsuda and Hagiwara stopped joking with him and waited for him to say what he would say next.

"Tomorrow at noon, I'd like to ask you two to go to the wetland park in the South District." Zhu Fujingguang didn't keep them in suspense and went straight to the point. "This time it's related to the organization's arms purchase. Some of the transaction details are too ambiguous, and I'm worried there might be problems, so I'd like you two to come and assist me."

This arms purchase was the order that made him choke on water. The quantities and specifications listed on it were a bit excessive, and the vague description made him suspect that the company might have also bought weapons that were too dangerous or too powerful.

The police needed to be involved in this matter, but unfortunately, there were many meetings and conferences at the end of the year, and there weren't enough trustworthy people. He didn't dare to use the newly assigned people for the time being, so he thought of these two colleagues.

Matsuda and Hagiwara didn't hesitate; after exchanging a glance, they immediately agreed: "No problem."

Zhu Fujingguang breathed a sigh of relief and instructed, "Disguise yourselves a little. Even if you don't need to show yourselves, just in case, wear black clothes. Once you arrive at the location I gave you, just wait for me to send you the footage or a message. If you notice anything amiss, notify me immediately." He then handed them two pairs of Bluetooth headsets.

At this moment, two anti-fraud agents had already crawled into the earphones.

Kenji Hagiwara understood that this was their communication tool, and then handed it to Matsuda and his partner, saying, "We know, it's not a difficult operation, don't worry."

Matsuda Jinpei glanced at the Bluetooth headset and nodded in agreement.

[Anti-fraud expert #19: I have a feeling he wants to tear me apart!]

[Anti-fraud expert #66: Stop talking, I think I'm in some danger too.]

Morofushi Kagemitsu smiled and, seeing the two earpieces nestled securely in the Bluetooth headsets, understood that the small experiment had been a success.

With the amulet, the anti-fraud team can now achieve true "mitosis," although each attachment only lasts for 12 hours, and they can only split into two at most, plus an uncertain cooldown period. However, this feature will make their future operations much more convenient.

That said, I made this discovery after making a wish at the small Buddhist altar in my office. Could this be the benefit of "spreading the word," as the anti-fraud expert mentioned?

[Just keep it to yourself, don't say it out loud (whispering)]

clear.

Morofushi Kagemitsu then discussed some details of the operation with his two friends before climbing back through the window.

Matsuda Jinpei, who was about to open the door for him: ...

There's no need to be so meticulous about finishing what you started.

Used.

[Anti-Fraud King #214: This isn't some video game. Even if you check in every day, my favorability won't increase by 1 every day...]

Zhu Fujingguang remained unmoved. He stayed in his newly booked hotel room, took out the company's technology exhibition brochure from his briefcase, placed the decorative roses from the bedside table next to him, and took a picture with his mobile phone.

To redeem themselves, Miyamoto and his crew spent a fortune hiring Nichibumi TV for publicity, vowing to make this technology exhibition a sensation throughout Tokyo!

Coincidentally, their newly established "Anti-Fraud Center" is also "deeply involved" in the electronics field, and he intends to give a slight hint about Bentang's future work environment.

The moment the photo was sent, the anti-fraud team contacted me.

[Anti-fraud team reminds you: Latest news update!]

[Completing more missions will yield "core intelligence"? Fake news! Quickly warn your undercover agents everywhere; it's the same old trick!]

-----------------------

Author's note: Q: Why did you suddenly want to dress up as a female ghost?

Hiro: It's mainly because I suddenly remembered that "port ghost" I mentioned to Hagiwara and Matsuda last time...

Lei: How does this have to do with me?
