At noon, Li Mengxi and Hinata Nain sat at the table in the Shan Pavilion. He was thinking about Lauren Thomson's commission.

There are three tasks: first, to find out the truth, that is, the ins and outs of the incident, second, to write a report on the investigation process and submit it as a source of information for writing news, and third, to solve the incident if possible, that is, to capture the murderer or eliminate him outright.

"Nayin ......"

Just when Li Mengxi raised his head and was about to discuss the policy with Hinata, he suddenly found that the other party was a cringe-like look like a frightened little animal. In retrospect, she didn't talk much along the way.

"What's wrong?" So, Li Mengxi asked suspiciously.

"That...... I'm sorry. Naine Hinata said in a very timid voice, "It's supposed to be up to you to decide, but I agreed without permission." ”

I see, it's for this.

"It's okay. Li Mengxi smiled, "I had the intention of accepting it." ”

"Really!" Hinata immediately smiled heartily as if she had been redeemed.

This guy is too responsible!

Li Mengxi complained slightly in his heart.

The same is true this time. Hinata Nayin agreed, not because of the remuneration, you must know that she has a huge fortune of more than 15 million, and she has an artifact like "Earth Royal Gate" in her hand. She only felt it was her responsibility to deal with the "murders in the city".

Of course, in fact, there should be no one who can really stay out of this incident, but there is no one who must bear the responsibility of chasing the murderer. Because there is no law in this world, and there is no enforcer.

Well?

As soon as he thought of this, Li Mengxi unexpectedly noticed the unreasonableness of Lauren Thomson's behavior.

No one has the responsibility to resolve an incident, so why did Lauren add the phrase "Resolve the incident, if possible" to her job?

That person can't just say no, but it's not going to be that strong.

Resolving the incident was not necessary for Lauren, and he made it necessary. Then maybe this is not necessarily a necessity for him, but another person who cannot ignore the "murders in the city".

But that person did not appear at the scene of this negotiation, which means that he wanted to hide his identity.

Whoever it is, it must be someone who has enough influence on a figure like Lauren Thomson and has a strong sense of justice, or who thinks of himself as a manager.

If you think about it this way, it doesn't have to be a single person, it can be a certain organization, and it can be several organizations......

I see, the four guilds. Richard's guy is really redundant, but they have their problems.

Speculating like this, Li Mengxi couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth and show a helpless smile.

"Sure enough, you're angry. Suddenly, Naine Hinata made a complaining call, interrupting Li Mengxi's thoughts. It seems that his unconsciously flowing expression has caused a misunderstanding of the girl at the table.

"No! Didn't I say it doesn't matter. How can you still be angry. ”

"Don't be perfunctory! I know, I'm terrible. It's been saying 'don't put you in danger', but now you're doing something like pushing you into danger. I ......"

"Please, Nayin, don't make up for it anymore, okay. I'm really not mad!"

Li Mengxi's desperate loud defense finally aroused the confronting of Nayin Hinata.

"Really?"

"Really. Besides, is this necessarily dangerous? You should be more worried about the murderer than I am. It's a little more likely that I'll kill him......"

"Mengxi!" Hinata Nain immediately scolded sharply, making Li Mengxi stunned. "Don't say that kind of thing, even if it's a joke. Killing someone, even if the other party is a murderer, is not a good thing. ”

"I'm sorry. Li Mengxi said solemnly, "Speaking of which, there is no death penalty in Japan." ”

"Yes, I just don't use it much. Speaking of this topic, Hinata Nain was faintly sad again, "Actually, no one has the right to take the lives of others, don't you think so?"

"Well, that's why I think it's not a right to kill someone, it's a responsibility. ”

"Responsibility?"

"Hmm. It is a sin for a person to kill someone, but sometimes, if you don't kill the other person, you will be killed, the people who are important to you will be harmed, innocent others will be harmed, and the order of society will be destroyed. ”

"There is no choice but to kill someone. ”

"Hmm. Perpetrators who are unable to control, who do not exercise self-discipline, and who do not even have the slightest repentance, must be killed by someone who bears the sin. So, I think it's a responsibility for people to kill people. ”

"It's like this incident we encountered this time. Hinata smiled bitterly.

This demeanor made Li Mengxi feel self-blame.

What are you doing? What can she do if she is more troubled!

"Well, Naine, that's just my personal opinion, and it's quite self-righteous. ”

"However, it makes sense. Saying this, Hinata Nain's face was quite entangled.

"Even if it makes sense, it's not necessarily your reason. Even if we're partners, we don't have to be the same in everything. There is an old Chinese saying that 'gentlemen are harmonious but different, villains are the same but not harmonious', and we hope that we are gentlemen's friends. ”

Knowing that Li Mengxi didn't force himself to change his opinion, Hinata Nain felt happy, but she didn't like his statement very much.

"I don't want any gentleman's friendship!"

"Eh, you, are you willing to choose 'villain friend'?"

"That's even better!"

"And what are you going to do?"

"I won't tell you!"

"Huh!"

"Stupid. ”

"What did you say all of a sudden?"

"Humph!"

"Huh!"

After a series of inexplicable encounters, Li Mengxi gave up.

"Forget it. Let's discuss the course of action for this work. Nain, do you have any ideas?"

"With you here, I don't need to think about it. ”

"Well, you agreed to do it, but it turned out to be like this. ”

Naine Hinata didn't refute either, just showed a coquettish smile.

"That's because I've always thought you're a reliable boy, Mengxi. ”

"So, after eating, let's do it immediately. First, I will ask the insiders in person. ”

"Agreed!"

At this moment, the waiter NPC came over with a plate. So, the two ended the topic of work and put their energy into eating and talking and laughing.

After lunch, according to Li Mengxi's arrangement, the two of them first visited the three witnesses on the information provided by Lauren.

It's also frustrating. The three of them were so frightened by what happened three days ago that they huddled together in one of them's house for three days, and basically stayed at home except for necessary things such as going to the toilet.

However, they were very cooperative when they heard about the intention. Presumably, I am very much looking forward to Li Mengxi and Hinata Naine being able to catch the prisoners and give them a peaceful day as soon as possible.

However, it didn't work.

All three were frightened, as the memory was somewhat confusing. And that night, they were in a state of drunkenness, and their minds were not clear. So, in the end, they only remember that such a terrible thing happened, but they don't know the specific details or even the notable places, and their words are not even as detailed as the image.

In the end, the three even quarreled with each other because their memories were too different. Seeing this, Li Mengxi and Hinata Naine hurriedly said a few polite words of thanks and left in a hurry.

"Ahh "What a wasted hour. ”

"It's not necessarily in vain, at least it really confirms that the incident is real. If we were to investigate something that didn't exist, it would be fundamentally impossible. Li Mengxi comforted.

"But what's next?"

"Go and see the acquaintances of the deceased. ”

"Hmm. ”

After making up their minds, the two of them immediately went into action. They followed the information given by Lauren to find the hotel where the target was staying, and knocked on the door panel.

"Knock! knock...... Knock!

After a long time, the door creaked, and through the crack in the door came the face of a haggard young man, with a look that seemed to have not slept for several nights.

"Who are you?" he asked in a feeble voice.

"Is that Mr. Sey-Bach?"

Hearing Li Mengxi's question, the young man's eyes turned suspiciously.

"So, who are you?"

"My name is Li Mengxi, and she is my partner Nayin Hinata. We were commissioned by the 'Hatsuba Morning Post' to investigate the incident of three days ago", can we ......"

"Get back!" shouted abruptly, and the young man slammed against the door.

A loud "bang" made both of them stunned for a moment. Immediately, Hinata Nain still didn't want to give up and planned to knock on the door again, but before touching the door panel, her hand was gently held by Li Mengxi.

"Huh?"

Looking at Hinata Nain's puzzled gaze, Li Mengxi shook his head and said, "Let's go", then let go of his hand and turned around and took a step. Naturally, Naine Hinata hurriedly followed.

"Don't try it again?"

"The man's eyes changed just now, it was a frightened look, like a frightened fox, and he wouldn't trust anyone. No matter how hard you try, you can't succeed. ”

"However, there are quirks. ”

"Do you see that, too?"

"There's no basis, it's just that it feels like that. ”

"A woman's intuition. ”

"Do you want to say it's not credible?"

"No, I want to say, I agree with you. ”

"Do you have a basis for that?"

"Absolutely. Although Lauren does not give us a specific process, it does mention that it was Seysin Bach who came into contact with him on his own initiative. However, in retrospect, do you think he is like that?"

"Mr. Thomson lied to us?"

In this kind of thing, he has neither need nor benefit. That is, it is the person who has changed. After taking the initiative to make contact, his thoughts changed, and then he became the same as before. No, maybe he was involved in the murder in the first place, and noticed it through his active assistance. ”

No wonder he looked so scared, he was afraid that he would be killed. Saying that, Hinata Nain's face changed greatly, "Then we shouldn't leave, we have to protect him." ”

"That person isn't going to have an accident. The accommodation in the inn is different from that on the street, and no one can break into it without the consent of the tenant. ”

"That's right. But didn't he just open the door for us?"

"That's what you look through the doormirror. Naine, I know you don't want any more victims, but what I just said is just a possibility......"

Suddenly, Li Mengxi's words stopped abruptly, and the ringtone of the phone rang in his mind.
