127. I pay ten times the price
After visiting the victims, Kyushu Seishun went to visit Suzumiya Tsubaki.
"Sister Hazel, long time no see."
After a week, Liang Gongzhen's complexion has improved a lot. When Makoto Kyushu saw her again, she was sitting on the edge of the bed slowly peeling apples.
"Long time no see, Koharukawa~" Suzumiya Squinted her eyes and greeted with a smile.
Seeing the fruit basket placed next to the hospital bed, Kyushu Makoto realized that he hadn't brought condolences over. After all, he was originally here to deal with the task, and visiting Liang Gong was a temporary idea.
"Are you feeling better?" Makoto Kyushu stepped forward and asked with concern.
"It's much better, the doctor doesn't know what medicine to give me, and the wound recovers very quickly." Liang Gong Chun patted his chest lightly:
"The doctor said that the stitches can be removed and discharged from the hospital next week."
"That's great!" Kyushu Makoto couldn't help but smile reassuringly: "Contact me when you are discharged from the hospital, and I will help you pack your things." β
"Okay, let's have a discharge celebration when the time comes~" Liang Gong Chu cut off a piece of pale yellow apple flesh and stuffed it into Kyushu Cheng's mouth:
"Ah~Open your mouth~"
"Thank you." Makoto Kyushu was stunned for a moment and ate the apple.
Tsukashi unhurriedly cut off a slice of apple and threw it into his mouth.
Looking at the fair girl in a hospital gown, Makoto Kyushu frowned slightly, and his mood became a little complicated.
"That's right." After hesitating for a moment, Makoto Kyushu asked, "The night you were killed, do you remember what I said to you?" β
"Hmm" Liang Gong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered something.
Immediately, she narrowed her eyes and smiled, pretending to be relaxed: "My consciousness was very blurry that night, and I don't remember much about what happened. β
"Really." Makoto Kyushu sighed heavily.
Makoto Kyushu still remembers that night, in order to keep Suzumiya alive, he said something like "I'll be your boyfriend" in a hurry, and kissed her.
Ask yourself, Kyushu Makoto has always treated Suzumiya as a friend. If you want to choose a girlfriend, she hardly meets any of Kyushu Makoto's requirements.
But men must dare to do it, and they must never break their wordβeven if it is just to save people.
So even if it is not suitable between the two, Kyushu Cheng must be responsible for it, and he must not be perfunctory, otherwise he will be ashamed of himself.
"That night, I said to you, 'I'll be your boyfriend,' and kissed you." Makoto Kyushu clenched his fists hard, and his nails dug into his palms:
"Sister Hazuko, you actually remember everything, right?"
"Well, I probably remember~" Liang Gong Chu snorted helplessly and tilted his head slightly: "But that night, you were just giving me artificial respiration, right?" β
"No, it's not artificial respiration! I'm here to kiss you with the intention of being a couple, so I'll be responsible for you! Kyushu Cheng's arm trembled, and he said not very confidently:
"But I've never been in a relationship and I don't know what my boyfriend is going to do."
Before Makoto Kyushu finished speaking, Suzumiya covered his mouth and laughed briskly.
"What are you laughing at?" Kyushu Makoto was surprised.
"It's nothing~" Liang Gong Chu stroked his chest and said softly: "I'm still a hospitalized patient, can you wait until I'm discharged from the hospital to talk?" β
"I see." Kyushu Cheng readily agreed: "Then I will say goodbye first, and when you are discharged from the hospital, I will come to you again." β
"No problem, see you next time~" Suzumiya also breathed a sigh of relief as if relieved, and waved his hand at him:
"We all need to think calmly."
"No problem." Makoto Kyushu nodded and turned to leave the ward.
"That's right, Koharukawa~" Liang Gong Chu spoke again: "Next time you talk to a girl, don't clench your fists so tight~"
Kyushu Makoto paused and replied in a deep voice: "I'm sorry, I'll pay attention next time." β
The young man closed the door gently and left, and only Liang Gong was left in the ward.
She stared in the direction of the door, and sighed uncontrollably.
"Xiao Chunchuan, I also hope that you can be a little scummy and pretend to forget about it" She grabbed the long hair on her forehead and smiled bitterly self-deprecatingly:
"You're so innocent, but you'll hurt others~"
Kyushu Makoto returned to the sports car, and Eliza Kiyomiya put away her mobile phone and put her hands on the steering wheel naturally:
"You're going to see that friend again?"
"Talk to her." After picking out some words, Kyushu Cheng's mood was much better:
"What are we going to do next?"
"For [Scissor Girl], we are still in the stage of half-understanding." Eliza yawned softly:
"But the words of the fourth victim make me very concerned."
"It's a homicide that happened at school two years ago, right?" Makoto Kyushu reasoned: "We can try to start from this angle, and there may be a connection between the two incidents. β
"I looked it up again online." Eliza shook her head regretfully: "There are very few reports on the Internet about that student homicide, and most of them have been deleted. It seems that the media has collected a lot of money from the school. β
"In that case, why don't we contact the police directly and ask them to call on their authority to help us investigate?" Makoto Kyushu asked:
"This case involves supernatural monsters, so there's nothing "invasion of privacy" to speak of, right?"
"No, we don't have evidence to prove that the two cases are absolutely linked." Eliza immediately vetoed:
"Even the Public Security Demon Hunting Section can't provide us with private information without sufficient evidence. Otherwise, the spirit remover only needs to say, "This person is related to the mission", and they will be able to pick up other people's privacy at will. β
"Makes sense" Makoto Kyushu pinched his chin and thought for a moment, then thought of a candidate: "Then we might as well hire a private detective to help us investigate, right?" β
"Oh? Do you know a reliable private investigator? Eliza gave her a curious look.
"Of course, I'm his old customer." Kyushu Cheng sent an address to Eliza: "Anyway, let's be a dead horse doctor first, what if we can find useful clues?" β
Half an hour later, the Sunset Detective Agency
"This commission is to investigate the murder of a student at Tsurita High School two years ago?" Xishen sat in the boss's chair and quickly recorded the request of the two.
"yes, can you do it?" Makoto Kyushu nodded.
"I'll tell you the results of the survey within a week, can I ask me?" Xishen Jian glanced at the work schedule on the wall and said.
Kyushu Cheng hesitated for a moment and asked, "A week is a bit long, can you speed it up?" β
The time limit for this soul removal commission is one week, and they can't delay it for that long.
"If you're in a hurry, I can also try to find out the results in three days." Xishen Jian frowned slightly, and his tone became serious:
"However, this is an expedited order, which requires an additional price."
"It's okay, how much does it cost?" Kyushu Cheng suddenly perked up.
"I'll give you a discount. I'll do the math. Sunset looked up and began to think.
"Don't forget it." Eliza took out a bank card directly from her pocket and twisted it between her fingers a few times:
"I need you to give me the results of the investigation in one day, and if I can do it, I will pay ten times the price."
