Chapter 126 What? The host is pretending to be a novice?
Late at night, on a certain coast.
"Om-"
"Om-"
The phone in my pocket rang.
Baichuan Qiu released the parking brake on the car and answered the phone: "Hello?"
"Shirakawa, are you okay?" Matsuda Jinpei asked anxiously, "Two assassins came to our place and planned to kill Hagi and me. Is everything okay over there?"
Shirakawa Akane yawned lazily, watching the small black car slowly drive down the slope towards the cliff. He turned around and walked back slowly: "Eh? I'm fine here. Are you and Hagiwara not hurt?"
"No." Matsuda Jinpei looked at the people on the ground. "They were all hired and don't know who their employer is. Hagi and I are going to send them to the Metropolitan Police Department now."
Coincidentally, these two people are wanted criminals.
"Okay, I'm glad you're okay." Baichuan Qiu breathed a sigh of relief.
A dull crashing sound was heard in the distance behind him. The car in the dark night broke through the fence and plunged directly into the sea, disappearing completely.
Shirakawa Akie didn't even turn around. Only Matsuda Jinpei vaguely heard the noise and looked a little surprised: "Shirakawa, are you outside now?"
"No, I don't know who downstairs is making the noise. It's so noisy and annoying."
Baichuan Qiu answered naturally.
"Okay... then you should also pay attention to your safety recently. Stay between the cafe and the apartment and don't run around." Matsuda Jinpei whispered, "Hagi and I will be very busy recently and may not have time to come see you."
"Okay, I know. I can take care of myself. Why do I need you to come and see me..."
After hanging up the phone, Baichuan Qiu put away his phone and walked forward leisurely.
"Host..." the system said weakly, "I have a question that I've been holding back for a long time..."
"explain."
Shirakawa Akane straightened his black coat.
"Uh... well, do you think there's something wrong with our system panel?" the system whispered. "Last time, Sakuda, and this time, the killer... it seems like neither of them were included in the system panel."
Sakuta was burned to death by the fire set by the host, and the killer was thrown into the sea with his car by the host... No matter how you look at it, the host is not a novice.
But the system panel seemed to be dead and did not move at all.
Calling the newbie Xiao Hei an insult to the host.
"Hmph." Bai Chuanqiu chuckled. "Little system, it's been so long, and you're just asking this question now?"
System: "The main reason is... uh, this situation is unheard of. I need to check my own data to make sure there is nothing wrong with me."
It is indeed a small system. When you encounter a problem, reflect on yourself first.
Bai Chuanqiu pondered for a moment: "Hmm...if you knew the reason, what would you do?"
The system was about to jump three feet high: "Of course, to fight for the host's rightful title!"
We can’t let its host suffer this kind of injustice!
"Oh, forget it then." Baichuan Qiu's face immediately fell.
system:! ! !
The system finally realized that Baichuan Qiu had done it on purpose.
He deliberately left the system panel at the title of [Newbie Xiao Hei], deliberately kept his "resume" free of any blood stains, and deliberately did not become a member of the [Official Murderer]!
But...why?
The system doesn’t understand.
"Why? Host." The system was a little confused and aggrieved.
Isn't it the host's golden finger? Why does it feel like the host is hiding so many secrets, but it knows nothing?
"What? You really want to know?" Baichuan Qiu lowered his head nonchalantly, stepping on the shadows on the ground with brisk and steady steps.
"miss you!"
"How about this--"
Bai Chuanqiu stretched out his hand, watching the moonlight behind him fall between his fingers, casting a silvery sheen. "If one day, I suddenly lose control of myself and want to kill the enemy, you must stop me, no matter what the cost—how?"
The system was confused: "Huh?"
What is this requirement?
It doesn't quite understand.
However, it should be the same as when the host met the detective before and couldn't help but want to stab him, right?
"That's different." Bai Chuanqiu chuckled, as if he had heard the system's thoughts. However, he didn't explain anything, only promised, "If you do it, I'll tell you."
The system muttered, "Alright, I'm here to assist the host anyway. Even if the host wants me to do something, it's my duty."
From another perspective, it can be regarded as a secret of the host for free.
Eh? That's not a bad deal!
So the system immediately agreed happily.
A smile flashed in Baichuan Qiu's eyes, but he didn't tease the system anymore. He looked up at the sky and stretched lazily: "Ah, it's too late. It's too troublesome to go back to the apartment. Let's go to the cafe and sleep for the night."
-
Early morning at the Poirot Café.
"Ding--"
When Toru Amuro opened the door, he first saw a white-haired young man sleeping soundly on a recliner.
His hand that was about to open the door paused, and he closed it cautiously.
However, the sound of the wind chimes at the door still woke up the young man on the recliner. He moved his body, squinted his eyes slightly, and yawned lazily: "Well - good morning, Amuro."
Amuro Toru was surprised: "Why are you sleeping here?"
"It was too noisy downstairs last night, so I ran here to sleep in a fit of anger." Baichuan Qiu said with a smile.
Amuro Toru: ...Why does it feel unconvincing?
"The Metropolitan Police Department seems... a bit unstable lately. Have you been affected?"
Apparently, Toru Amuro also heard about what happened at the Metropolitan Police Department.
"What can I possibly do? I'm just a small coffee shop manager right now." Shirakawa Qiu shrugged. "But Matsuda and the others are probably quite busy lately."
Amuro Toru rubbed his brows with a headache: "You must know what they did, right? Why didn't you tell me?"
At least he could help out in this way, by getting help from the police, so that Matsuda and the others wouldn't be in so much danger.
Baichuan Qiu: "You have been very busy recently. It is not appropriate for you to intervene in this matter as a public security officer."
This matter itself is an internal issue of the Metropolitan Police Department. If Toru Amuro intervenes in this matter in the name of the National Police Agency, he is likely to offend more people and make the senior management of the Metropolitan Police Department lose face.
If he attracts the attention of suspicious people again, Amuro Toru's identity as a public security officer might be exposed.
Amuro Toru sighed, "I understand."
He rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start working: "Then don't go anywhere casually recently..."
Before he could finish his words, his cell phone rang.
Amuro Toru: "Wait a moment."
He walked aside and answered the phone.
"Yeah, tell me."
"What? He ran away? Why would he do that at this time——"
Amuro Toru glanced at Shirakawa Akane, a solemn look flashing in his gray-purple eyes, and he lowered his voice: "Put this matter aside, I will handle it myself."
Baichuan Qiu sat up straight, feeling that this matter must be related to them.
After hanging up the phone, Amuro Toru's expression was extremely serious: "The bomber who almost killed you and Hagiwara Kenji has escaped."
Shirakawa Akane was in a daze for a moment before he remembered who Amuro Toru was talking about.
The system exclaimed: "Host, isn't that the bomber who killed Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji in the original plot?"
Baichuan Qiu felt a chill in his heart.
This guy is a disaster that Matsuda and Hagiwara cannot escape.
He asked why they only sent assassins, but it turns out they have a backup plan!
"This incident is clearly aimed at Matsuda and the others. There's definitely something fishy going on." Amuro Toru said, "I'll take some people over to check out the situation first."
