Walk out of the 'Mask X Machete X Meat' office, just walk down the metal stairs, and you will see the second-hand electrical shop across the road.
'Rock Appliances'.
The signboard looks like a light box, with a white background and black characters.
The corners have long been broken, but they are still usable, and the boss has not replaced them.
There are old washing machines and TV sets on both sides of the store entrance, which are placed together with the dilapidated signboard, without any sense of abruptness.
The boss is an elderly man who is sitting sideways in a chair in the shop, watching the TV placed in front of the door.
The TV is a very old color TV with its own antenna, the screen is protruding, and the picture is full of snowflakes, but the old man watched it with great interest, clapping his legs and clicking his tongue while looking at his thighs on TV.
"Good afternoon, Jason."
"do you need anything?"
The old man greeted Jason with a natural and enthusiastic expression.
acquaintance
Jason frowned secretly.
What he is most worried about now is meeting acquaintances.
He doesn't have any memory about 'self', he can only choose to nod vaguely.
"I need a TV."
Jason said so.
"television?"
"Of course! If you're single, you should have gotten one long ago, even to relieve loneliness!"
"What do you think of this one?"
The boss pointed to the TV he was watching, and said with a smile: "I received it a week ago, it's probably new, with its own antenna, you can watch five TV stations stably, and..."
As he spoke, the boss lowered his voice.
"It matches your profession very well!"
"Um?"
Jason looked at the mysterious boss who approached him in surprise.
"Its former owner said that a well would appear inexplicably on this TV, and a woman with long hair in white clothes would appear from the well, and then crawl out of the TV bit by bit."
The owner of the electrical appliance store lowered his voice and said in a pretentious manner.
While talking, the owner of the electrical appliance store made a gesture, put his hands on his chest, fluctuating up and down, and kept saying in a low voice: "I hate it, I hate it so much."
Jason shrugged his nose.
Didn't taste like any food.
Therefore, when Jason looked at the mysterious and sinister electrical boss, his face became expressionless.
It is definitely not a pleasant thing to be stared at by a strong man with a height of 2 meters + and a rough face.
The same goes for electrical store owners.
Soon, the boss laughed dryly under Jason's gaze.
"I also heard from the previous guest."
The other party explained.
"Where is the guest?"
Jason asked while checking the TV in front of him.
Although for Jason, such a TV is really an antique, but learning to tune channels should not be any easier. After all, the rotary button on it has already indicated everything.
"have no idea."
"Speaking of which, the other party doesn't seem to be from the Silver-11 block."
"I've never seen him before."
"Whatever, anyway, the procedures are complete, and there is an invoice from the department store. There must be no problem with the source of the TV."
The electrical boss thought about it, but soon shook his head.
"Rich?"
Jason asked after checking it out.
"200."
The electrical appliance boss quoted a price.
"100."
Jason returned a price.
Immediately, the electrical boss jumped up from his chair.
That sensitive response is not what an old man with a white beard should have.
"How can you do this?"
"There's no bargaining, cut it in half... wait!"
"Don't go!"
Jason ignored the boss's yelling at all, turned around and left.
"120!"
"At least 120!"
"I was accepted by 110!"
The electrical boss stopped Jason and explained directly.
Jason stopped in his tracks, looked into the shop, and finally stopped on a radio.
"120 is fine, it serves as a head."
Jason pointed to the good-quality radio that was playing the news.
"No! Absolutely not!"
"I can't... we can talk."
"Really, we can talk about it!"
Seeing Jason about to leave again, the boss stopped him again.
In the end, Jason got a second-hand TV and a second-hand radio for 125.
It should be a price stuck in the heart of the electrical appliance owner.
Jason judged his own price by listening to the electrical boss's heartbeat with eight times the perception of ordinary people.
Seeing the back of Jason picking up the TV and radio, the electrical boss shook his head.
Why is he so good at bargaining when he is obviously tall and thick
Shouldn't he just earn a fortune without counter-offering
Just when the electrical appliance owner was thinking, he suddenly saw two figures. Immediately, the electrical appliance owner shrank his head and hid in the shop.
Urashima quickly followed behind the senior, Chief Ryosuke.
Seeing the posture of the man walking quickly in front of him, Urashima couldn't help but sigh.
As a senior, this man is not qualified, and he hasn't learned anything until now.
As an officer, this man is even more unqualified. He does everything alone and does not mobilize the power he should have at all.
Just like this case.
The well-known supervisor, Ichiro Aijo was murdered.
Also, the head was missing.
According to the investigation, the last thing the other party saw was a man named Jason.
The other party lives in Yin-11-101 and has an exorcism firm called 'Mask X Machete X Meat'.
According to the procedure, he will come here to inquire and take notes for this man named Jason, instead of Ryosuke who is the administrator.
But in the face of Ryosuke, who is a management officer, how could he refuse an ordinary inspection
I hope there will be no major disturbances.
Thinking of what his chief had done in the past, Urashima couldn't help praying.
However, everything was a bit unexpected.
Ryosuke stopped when he was two meters away from Jason.
Dangerous guy!
When Ryosuke saw Jason, his heart trembled.
That was the feeling he only had when facing very few people.
But among those very few people, none of them could give him the same strong feeling as he does now.
How many people did this guy kill
ten
twenty
Ryosuke thought about it, and put his hands on his waist subconsciously.
That's where the guns were fired.
However, Ryosuke did not pull out the gun.
He knew very well that, facing a guy like Jason, once he drew his gun, he would really be immortal.
And him
Not sure about facing Jason.
Even with a gun in hand.
Thinking of this, Ryosuke put down his hand.
Since it is useless, then stop doing useless work.
Holding a stick to deter a tiger can only irritate the tiger.
Thinking of this, Ryosuke said directly.
"I'm the detective Ryosuke, and I hope we can talk about the matter of Ichiro Sōjo—he was murdered."
When Ryosuke said this, he kept looking into Jason's eyes.
However, what made Ryosuke frown was that Jason's eyes were very calm, without any waves.
Neither surprised nor panicked.
Very bland.
Everything seems to be irrelevant.
It seems that everything has been expected.
In fact, it is.
Who would believe the scum's oath
Others may want to believe it.
Can Jason
Absolutely will not believe it.
For Jason, if the scumbag's oath can be believed, there will be no lightning and thunder for no reason.
The oath you made, I'm going to get in the rain
Jason would not be such an innocent and honest person.
As for Aijo Ichiro's death
Jason could guess that it should be the girl in the tea bowl who did it.
If you suffer from him, the other party's subconscious performance will not make things peaceful.
"what do you know?"
Ryosuke stared at Jason and asked.
"do not know anything."
"I've been here before."
"If you don't believe me, you can ask."
Jason answered.
Ryosuke winked at Urashima, and the young detective acted immediately.
During this period, Jason and Ryosuke did not stand on the side of the road.
The two walked to the downstairs of the 'Mask X Machete X Meat' office, White Bear Cafe.
"What do you want to drink? I'll treat you."
Ryosuke said.
Suddenly, Jason took another look at the middle-aged policeman.
Short hair, thin face, with a little bit of stiffness, as if injured, making his face look very fierce, his body is straight, looks thin, but has a considerable explosive power, sitting at that time, his back also maintained An optimal posture of exerting force.
If he hadn't seen the other party's ID, it would be hard for Jason to believe that someone like Ryosuke would be a policeman.
It is more appropriate to say that they are thugs.
No!
It's a desperado!
Moreover, some of the opponent's habits were similar to the outlaws Jason knew well.
Even, Jason smelled a bit of the residents of the 'city that never sleeps' on the other party's body.
It's faint, but it's there.
Of course, the scrutiny ends here.
What Jason cared more about was what the other party said... a treat.
"Ten caramel lattes, and twenty ice cream scoops, with a muffin base."
Jason glanced at the signature menu behind the cafe bar, and said naturally.
Ryosuke was taken aback.
The owner of the cafe was also taken aback.
But, right away, the café owner sprang into action.
The movement is quick and the technique is skillful.
Ryosuke's stiff face became even stiffer.
He always felt that he seemed to have said the wrong thing just now.
"Overeating is not good."
Ryosuke said so.
"Well, so, I usually only eat 70% full."
Jason nodded, and looked again at the female owner of the cafe... the signature menu behind him.
"Do you have steak?"
"Give me ten servings, seven are ripe."
Jason said.
"Okay, guest."
The female boss replied with a smile.
Although the fluffy and curly hair covered the corners of her eyes and most of her nose, the other party smiled like a flower when the corners of her mouth were turned up.
Under such a smile, the other party, who was dressed in black and full of gloom, also became brighter.
Ryosuke's face became even more rigid.
The middle-aged detective wanted to say something, but seeing Jason staring at the photo menu of the cafe eager to try, he wisely chose to shut up.
Even, Ryosuke couldn't help but want to get up and leave.
He can now be sure that the death of Jason and Ichiro Soijo has absolutely nothing to do with each other.
Because, no murderer would 'blackmail' a cop like Jason, even for a meal... well, a meal, just a meal.
Ryosuke touched his wallet and told himself silently.
While the female boss was getting ready, Urashima returned.
"Sir, I have investigated it clearly!"
"Mr. Jason has been in the Silver-11 block just now!"
"The owners of octopus ball shops, glutinous rice dumpling shops, dorayaki shops, and taiyaki shops on the street can all testify for Mr. Jason!"
Urashima answered seriously.
"knew."
Hearing the subordinate's report, Ryosuke inexplicably felt a little overwhelmed.
This is your 70% full
Then, he walked quickly to the stage.
"Is there anything else you need?"
"You can tell me directly."
The female boss replied with a smile.
"No, I'll pay the bill."
Ryosuke took out his wallet.
If I stay any longer, I really have to stay here and wash the dishes.
The smell of dish soap...was just too bad.
"A total of 271 yuan was spent."
The female boss quoted the price.
"Is there no discount?"
Ryosuke, who was holding the wallet, asked struggling.
"No."
"If you don't have enough cash, you can go to withdraw money. There is a bank not far away."
The female boss smiled and pointed outside.
It's just that the eyes covered by the hair flickered with an inexplicable light.
Not even hair can cover it.
Ryosuke is familiar with such light.
This is the vigilant light!
The other party was worried about him...eating a king's meal
How can it be!
It is absolutely impossible for me, Ryosuke, to do such a thing.
"No."
Ryosuke said in a deep voice, then turned to look at Urashima.
"Urashima, you settle the bill first and pay your wages, and I will pay you back."
After speaking, Ryosuke strode out.
Even when passing in front of Jason, he didn't stop at all. On the contrary, he walked faster.
The female boss glanced at Ryosuke's back, and then locked her eyes on the bewildered Urashima.
"guest?"
"Any questions?"
"Should I call the police?"
The female boss pointedly reminded Urashima.
"No, I'll just... I'll pay the bill, do you have an invoice?"
Subconsciously, Urashima wanted to say that he was a policeman, but he felt that it would be embarrassing if he said it. When the words came to his lips, he swallowed them abruptly, and then he also began to struggle.
Just like a fish coming ashore, it opened its mouth wide and began to breathe.
But…
No oxygen.
Only pain.
Urashima also felt sorry for the wallet.
As a bachelor, he had to save money to marry a wife.
Therefore, an invoice must be available.
This is evidence that Ryosuke borrowed money.
He wasn't worried that Liangjie would not pay back the money. As his senior and officer, Liangjie's credit in this regard was not a problem. What he was worried about was that it would not be his turn.
That's right.
Ryosuke is the kind of man who lives in debt.
The payday is the repayment day.
For a moment, it was empty.
So, you have to be reminded all the time.
"have."
said the lady boss.
This made Urashima heave a sigh of relief.
Unlike Ryosuke's departure, Urashima saluted Jason before leaving.
After that, it's the female boss's serving.
Coffee, ice cream, steak.
Jason had a great time eating.
craft
not bad.
At least much stronger than him.
Looking at the stormy Jason, the female boss sat directly opposite Jason and asked in a familiar tone—
"What happened to what you promised me?"
