Chapter 156: The first unsolicited commission
The end of school at Teidan Primary School is 3 p.m.
After the music lessons, I took two English lessons.
In class, Miyamoto Aito, who came from abroad and was not Japanese at all, was called up again and again to answer questions.
The reason is, "Since I'm from abroad, I guess my English skills are pretty good." ”
Miyamoto Aito's English is really good, because there are many family members of different nationalities.
He speaks a lot of languages, and he has absolutely no problem communicating, as well as writing.
In fact, the other four people of Silver Bullet also speak some languages other than Japanese.
English is just the most basic for them.
Before Miyamoto came here, Hideki Moryoshi was the student who was always selected to answer questions in English class.
Fluent English is better than what the teacher speaks.
Because most Japanese people pronounce English in English, there is always something strange.
And the stars and trees did not.
Because he learned his English abroad, not in Japan.
Miyamoto Aito certainly doesn't have a Japanese English accent either, and he speaks the language like a local.
And he is much more obedient than Zhu Xing Xiushu.
When Hideki stood up and recited, his tone was always arrogant, as if he looked down on others.
Miyamoto Aitto's recitation is just recitation, a recitation with a soft voice, a gentle and healing style.
So the English class ended with Miyamoto Aito being called out and recited.
The day's classes are over and it's time for the end of school.
Hideki stood on the side with the schoolbag he had packed up a long time ago, waiting for Miyamoto Aito to pack up his things and leave together.
When I went downstairs, I met the three Kikukawa Seiichiro who were also going down the stairs.
The five of them were together again.
"Let's go to the office, I don't know if I can meet Eucalyptus today." Hideki said so.
The group walked unhurriedly towards the office.
I bought a newspaper on the way.
Flipped through the recent news.
"Hattori Heiji on the Kansai side is broken again, Kudo Shinichi in Kanto can't see him in the newspaper recently, Mori Kogoro hasn't broken it in the past few days, and those first-year students haven't appeared on the news......" Takizawa Shinya said as he looked at the news in the newspaper.
"Kidd, a strange thief who has disappeared for eight years, recently resurfaced and sent a warning letter to the police, saying that he was going to steal the Moon Child gem on display at the Tokyo Art Museum...... Are we going to join in the fun? Jiang Shouhuang asked with a smile.
"Kidd, the monster thief who disappeared for eight years? Think about it, the internationally wanted criminal, crime number 1412, so it's called the monster thief Kidd, it is said that the guy appeared eighteen years ago, suddenly disappeared eight years ago, and now suddenly appears again, if it is still the person before, now the age is at least thirty or forty years old, really, a young man has to come out again as a thief. Zhu Xing Xiushu said a string of information from the police file, and then mocked.
He had seen more or less information about internationally wanted criminals.
"Maybe the family is bankrupt? So I had to go back to my old business. Jiang Shouhuang guessed.
"Maybe that's it." Takizawa Shinya said with a malicious smile.
"It's just a thief, it's none of our business, I don't want to catch a thief." Zhuxing Xiushu's tone didn't matter.
The stolen stuff has nothing to do with them.
Whoever loves to steal steals.
"It's true that catching a thief is not a fun thing to do." Kikukawa Seiichiro nodded.
In fact, there is no point in the police arresting people.
The strange thief Kidd sent a notice letter in advance, and the police will definitely arrange for someone to stay at the scene to protect the gem.
Then there's the story of the strange thief Kidd fighting wits and courage with the police in order to steal the gems.
"No wonder Tetsuya Aoyagi would take a leave of absence." Hideki Zhuxing just said that.
I heard that the strange thief who disappeared eight years ago has reappeared, so I can't wait to get the news.
"Leave? Tomorrow? It's really a reporter who runs wherever there is big news. Takizawa Jin also sighed.
The notice says that tomorrow Kidd the Monster Thief will take the gem.
"But I've seen that Moon Child gem, before I saw Miyamoto's eyes, it was actually quite good-looking, but after seeing Miyamoto's eyes, ......" Jiang Shouhuang said shaking his head.
It feels like all the gems are getting a little unremarkable.
The Moon Child, worth 400 million yen, is nothing more than that.
"It's a pity that Miyamoto has to wear sunglasses." Jiang Shouhuang's tone was very regretful.
They only saw each other take off their sunglasses when they took pictures on the night of the festival, and the other time the other's eyes were tightly covered by sunglasses.
Because the other person's eyes can't see light, or they can't see ultraviolet rays.
The white-haired boy hugged the doll bear and listened quietly to their conversation, without expressing a word.
Then I arrived at the office.
The door of the office was open, and Tetsu Aoyagi sat on the sofa inside, reading the newspaper and drinking coffee.
Seeing the five of them coming, he just put down his coffee cup and nodded to say hello.
After all, he was an assistant, not a servant.
There is no need to bow or kneel.
As soon as Miyamoto came in, he stared at the desserts on the coffee table.
"Can I eat it?" He asked rather politely.
"I asked this guy to buy it for you, eat it." Zhuxing Xiushu stroked his forehead and sighed.
Who asked Miyamoto to say a word every time he came to the office, but unfortunately there were no desserts.
Now that you have it, let's eat quietly.
"Stars, you are really a good person." Miyamoto Ato said seriously.
The four people of the silver bullet have become [friends who will buy him desserts and have a common secret].
Although it is still not as good as family, it is much better than strangers, and a little better than ordinary friends.
Ato thought as he eagerly ate his cake.
"Have you received any commissions?" Hideki Moyoshi sat down on the sofa and asked Tetsuya Aoyagi.
"Yes, yes, but it's a strange commission." Tetsuya Aoyagi's tone was a little complicated.
"See for yourselves." He handed a letter of entrustment to Hideki Zhuxing.
The letter of entrustment has been opened, and the people of Zhuxing Xiushu don't care.
They just looked at the first official commission they received, and their eyes were excited.
[Dear Silver Bullets, I am a father who has lost his daughter, who is ten years old and has a lovely appearance, but who lost her figure three days ago.]
Her last appearance was near Rice Flower Park.
I called the police the day I disappeared.
And a man spent three days in Rice Flower Park, trying to find someone suspicious.
Three days passed, and the police did not find any clues around, and I did not find any suspicious people, perhaps because the adults were there, the other party did not dare to appear.
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
For this reason, I beg you to find my daughter for me.
- Kosuke Arai]
"It's really better to ask us for help." Miyamoto Aito listened to the content of the Xingxing Hideki and nodded.
After all, many prisoners who only target children will hide when they see adults.
And among the schoolboy detectives, only the silver bullet is the most famous.
The first-year Junior Detectives had been on the news once before, but they hadn't heard of it since.
"It's been three days since I disappeared, and it's hard to say if I'm still alive......" Takizawa Shinya whispered.
"Do you want to pick it up?" Jiang Shouhuang looked at the stars and trees.
Hideki closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.
"It's not the first one." He opened his eyes suddenly.
"The police received a report a month ago, but the address of the disappearance was not in Rice Park, but in another place, but the missing person was also a girl of about the same age."
"In a month, ten people are missing, an average of one every three days." Hideki thought of the information in the police records he had seen.
"Is it the one that disappeared near the Rice Flower Aquarium? It seems that this incident has also been in the newspapers, and the parents of the missing girl have published a missing person notice in the newspaper. Tetsuya Aoyagi added.
"You can't refuse the first commission." Zhu Xing Xiushu pinched the letter of entrustment and raised his eyebrows.
