Chapter 75 Safety is the Key to Big Wins
This morning, I was woken up by my anti-fraud alarm clock again. When I opened the curtains, I found it was snowing outside.
Morofushi Kagemitsu has now adapted to the romantic view filled with pink bubbles. As usual, he washes his face, brushes his teeth, and then makes himself breakfast with the ingredients readily available in the refrigerator.
As a result, during the meal, the anti-fraud officer came to bother him again, acting like a personal secretary.
...Alright, compared to the mission, eating isn't that important.
[Anti-fraud expert #11: Mr. Jin Quan replied to your message in the early morning, saying he wanted to change the transaction location and asked for your time.]
Although skipping the movie theater might not avoid the organization, it's better to be safe. Let's go to the hotel then, same time.
[Anti-fraud expert #11: OK, replied directly.]
Is there anything unusual happening with the police?
[Anti-fraud reporter #19: Mr. Jin Quan's application went unanswered for a long time, and was withdrawn in the early morning. It seems no one noticed.]
No one paid any attention; it sounded like they had given prior notice.
Upon hearing this, Morofushi Kagemitsu's guess had taken shape, and he was just waiting to verify it when he met with Mr. Kinsen.
[Anti-fraud King No. 148: Ethan's main branch is already wrapping up; the organization has people watching him to prevent any unusual movements.]
What was Pisco's reaction?
[Anti-fraud expert #214: He sent an email saying that his boss's family members had faked their deaths and been sent abroad, so there wasn't much of a reaction.]
...Okay, this approach isn't entirely unacceptable; as long as it makes the story coherent, it's acceptable.
However, we can't let him rest, but if we assign him any more tasks, I always feel like he might cause some big trouble.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #26: Jing, have you forgotten? He still has a bonus question to answer. The hacker who silently infiltrated the factory hasn't been found yet. Let him continue his arrests.]
That's a good idea, but this matter has been going on for so long without any results. Haven't you found anything yet?
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Um, we've used the Black Guest platform to find quite a few hackers. We've tried both overt and covert probing, but that person hasn't revealed any trace of themselves.]
...By the way, when you were investigating back then, did you sense any traces of fate or anything like that?
[Anti-fraud expert #205: Do you suspect that fate deliberately prevented us from finding it? But we didn't sense anything; if we had, we would have told you right then and there.]
So, when we went to the police academy that night, did you have any special feelings?
[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: ...No, that's not available.]
[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: Could it be... that you suspect it was your future self who did it?]
I'm not entirely sure either, but given what happened to Hagiwara not long ago, it's hard not to think in that direction.
[Anti-fraud expert #214: What was the purpose then? You didn't change the customer list, you just glanced at it. I can't figure out your motive.]
Perhaps they wanted to influence our next actions through this gesture.
As for the impact, if we think about it carefully, we were planning to go in at the time.
[Anti-fraud expert #148: Is there something in the processing plant that we can't know about? But we already scanned it and didn't find anything unusual.]
I feel it's difficult to draw any conclusions from this aspect; there are still too few key conditions and details.
[Anti-fraud expert #205: Perhaps it wasn't your future self who did it. If fate truly wants to deceive us, it's possible to do it flawlessly.]
[Anti-fraud expert #11: If you can't figure it out, just leave it for now. Deal with this matter first. Manager Utsumi texted to ask about Asakawa Sora's upcoming schedule.]
Well, just randomly remove a few dates, and tell him you're free for the rest of the time.
[Anti-fraud expert #66: I spent the whole night in his office, hoping to take a look at some confidential documents. But guess what? This stingy guy cut off the power before leaving the company! Now I can only turn it on when the earlier employees arrive.]
...It's not right to be so stingy with the company's finances. Otherwise, you'll raise the salaries of all the employees, but he won't get any raises.
[Anti-fraud expert #66: I think he'll be furious when he finds out.]
Then be angry.
Number 66, wearing Master Matsuno's vest, replied to him, saying that this time, the four selected people would be sent to four branch offices for seven days. He assigned me to Tottori, and the others would be randomly assigned.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #66: Received~]
[Anti-fraud expert #214: By the way, I haven't asked you yet, have you decided who to hire to play the feng shui master? I've noticed you haven't been in contact with anyone these past few days.]
It's not good to find other people to play this role. Just let them take the puppets with them and say that the feng shui master is with me.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #198: Bringing along a puppet... are you trying to create some kind of supernatural phenomenon to scare them?]
...The way you put it, it's you guys who've been itching to do something, isn't it? Ever since I scared Matsuda and Hagiwara last time, you've secretly watched that video countless times. Did you think I didn't know?
[(Whistle sound) ~]
[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: Both Ray and Melo have messaged you.]
...How come this trick always works for you guys? Let's look at Ray's first, what's up with him?
[Ray: The intelligence-sharing alliance is still working.]
certainly.
Although Rye's return to the United States was a bit of a blunder, it wasn't entirely without benefit to the FBI. He might even be able to find an opportunity to contact Sherry, which of course couldn't be allowed to be lost.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: Replied.]
[Anti-fraud expert #148: There's another message about Melo.]
Wait! Melo is going to bother me again in the morning; it can't be anything good!
[Anti-Fraud Guru #19: You're right. Two seconds ago, Miyamoto sent you a bunch of documents again. I glanced at them, and sure enough, it was about the budget and the tech expo again.]
The tech expo was postponed a long time ago, so why are they still thinking about it? No money, no money, no money—are they going to withhold their employees' wages?
[Anti-fraud expert #11: Planning to apply for another loan. After losing so much last year, of course I want to make up for it this year and earn back all the losses.]
[Anti-fraud expert #26: Haha, isn't it because of the "big win"?]
What kind of big win?
[Anti-Fraud King #26: You have no idea, ever since that helicopter was shot down, the action team has been incredibly embarrassed. So, Chianti and his crew have been stubbornly insisting in front of others that it was just a temporary measure, saying things like, "Even though the helicopter is down, we won the battle," and "They're still the most reliable action team in the organization."]
Zhu Fujingguang: ...
[Anti-fraud King #214: Gin, the only one with any sense of shame, got angry and ran away, which is why he came to you to do that club mission.]
Thinking of the way Melo had texted him back then, Morofushi Kagemitsu fell silent again.
Sometimes, he really couldn't understand the way these criminals thought.
[Anti-fraud expert #198: Don't blame us for not warning you, sharing a brain with a mentally ill person is bad for your mental state.]
He quietly cleared away the dishes, feeling that he hadn't really enjoyed the breakfast.
He should focus his attention on the rendezvous tomorrow night. When the anti-fraud team is driving autonomously, he can chat with them and give them a piece of his mind.
[Autopilot mode is now active. Passengers, please do not interfere with the driver. (Horn)]
Zhu Fujingguang: #!
[Anti-Fraud Guru #11: Ah! I see Mr. Jin Quan! He's behind that curtain on the second floor.]
[Anti-fraud expert #205: You don't need to take out your card; we'll just open the door for you.]
...I'll settle accounts with you later.
Morofushi Kagemitsu twitched his lips, but his expression changed drastically upon seeing Mr. Kinsen again.
After exchanging coded messages in the small hotel room, the two exchanged USB drives containing intelligence that Morofushi Kagemitsu had gathered during this period.
Mr. Jin Quan sat opposite him, his eyes fixed on the radar on his watch. He had just confirmed that there were no surveillance devices in the room.
Morofushi Kagemitsu revealed his whereabouts in Tottori: "The organization wanted to send me to Tottori on a mission, ostensibly to inspect the accounts, but actually it was Uchimi who had someone arrange for water diversion. However, I wanted to test the organization's sphere of influence in Tottori, so I told Mello that I needed to investigate Miyake Masaki's whereabouts before I agreed."
Mr. Jin Quan nodded and said, "Speaking of Miyake Masaki, although the police haven't found any trace of him yet, there's something else I need to tell you." With that, he handed over a map.
Zhu Fujingguang looked down to examine the map, which was projected into his mind. He found that three locations were clearly marked on it.
“This is the map in the rockery in the park.” Morofushi Kagemitsu recognized it immediately. “I remember there are two in Tokyo, and another one in Tottori.” The one in Tokyo was near the police academy, which gave him some clues.
“That’s right, the police team sent people to investigate, but they didn’t find anything,” Mr. Jin Quan said. “So, I hope you can go to this location again to investigate. Of course, that is, on the premise of ensuring your own safety.”
Morofushi Kagemitsu agreed. He was indeed somewhat interested in this matter, after all, it was this thing that had started his time-traveling journey.
Since the topic had already turned to the park operation, he wanted to take the opportunity to confirm the contents of the safe, so he asked, "Has the police found out what's inside the safe?"
Mr. Jin Quan shook his head slightly and said, "I'm not too sure. I don't have access to the information inside. I was thinking of cooperating with the IT department, but I'm still not entirely comfortable with them."
"Information Department?" Ever since he became involved with the Anti-Fraud Bureau, Morofushi Kagemitsu has been very interested in this kind of term.
Mr. Jin Quan simply said, "In the past six months, they have introduced some things that are quite helpful for judging cases and apprehending criminals, so I was planning to use their technology. But considering that there are many new people in their department and your text message reminder, I gave up on this idea."
Morofushi Kagemitsu was a little uneasy and said cryptically, "There are quite a few capable hackers in the organization. Perhaps we should pay attention to this aspect."
Mr. Jin Quan nodded to indicate that he understood what he meant.
[Anti-Fraud Guru #148: Strange...]
What's wrong? Is someone eavesdropping?
"I can't believe it!" asked Zhu Fujingguang nervously.
[Anti-fraud expert #148: No, it's just that this gift seems a bit strange.]
What's the meaning?
[Anti-Fraud Guru #26: Ah! I think so too. This scene makes it seem like Mr. Jin Quan is your subordinate! Jing, you've turned the tables on us!]
Zhu Fujingguang: ...
That's it?
Zero had long been Kazami's superior.
[Anti-fraud expert #214: You actually thought that way...?]
