Chapter 37: The Entrustment of Mieko Shibasaki

After school, Fujino's house.

[Detective Class Mission: Bandage Monster Incident.]

Objective: Solve or stop the killing

Mission-limited countdown: within twenty-four hours of the death of the victim of the incident

Rewards: 500,000 yen bounty, 50 Detective Fame]

"Is it a bandage freak murder case?"

Fujino stood in front of the balcony, looking at the new system tasks that appeared in the system interface, and his deep eyes shone with a hint of essence.

This case, if Fujino remembers correctly, should be related to Ayako Suzuki.

Ayako Suzuki founded a film club when she was in college.

After all the members of the club graduated, the members of the film club agreed to reconvene every two years.

And this time, the party was chosen at the forest villa of the Suzuki family.

As for why there are murders............

It's all because of Tomokako Ikeda, a popular writer who was also in the club back then.

Tomokako Ikeda plagiarized the idea of a girl named Dunzi and won the Best Newcomer Award for the year for her novel "The Kingdom of Cyan".

Unlike Tomokako Ikeda, who became a popular female writer in the literary world, Dunzi, who had been plagiarized from her creativity, hanged herself in depression because she had no way to appeal.

In order to avenge her, Ryoichi Takahashi, who has always had a crush on Dunzi, brutally dismembered Tomokako Ikeda in the forest villa of the Suzuki family in a party a few days later............

"Knock knock!"

At this moment, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted Fujino's thoughts.

"Is it a client again?"

Fujino was stunned when he heard this.

Weekend commissions are a bit too much.

More requests than you can accept on a normal working day............

Putting away his thoughts, Fujino slowly stood up.

Skip the 100-square-meter bedroom and walk to the door and push it open.

What catches my eye is a girl with a pinch of red hair in front of her bangs.

Fujino looked at the girl in front of him and couldn't help but be stunned.

"Are you Detective Fujino?"

The girl was the first to speak.

Fujino gave a polite smirk and asked, "I am, do you have anything to do with me?" ”

"Hello Detective Fujino, I was introduced by an acquaintance............"

The girl first greeted politely, and then said how she knew this, and then asked solemnly, "I wonder if Detective Fujino accepts the commission of the girl who the object of investigation is liked?" ”

"If you entrust this ............"

Fujino wanted to speak and stopped, and he couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his heart.

When you are a detective, you don't rely on fighting and killing, but on human sophistication.

Every client has its own circle, and if the client is done, then the people in that circle are potential customers.

The reason why the girl found Fujino was most likely not because of fame, but because she heard about the introduction of her friends in the circle.

To be honest, Fujino really doesn't want to accept this kind of commission with the sour smell of love.

But after all, it was introduced by an acquaintance, and he is very polite, so let's understand it first.

After all, people are not to be disguised.

What if this girl is a rich woman?

After entering the house, the girl first took off the peaked cap on her head, revealing a handful of non-mainstream red hair in front of her hair, and then indicated her intention.

The girl's name is Mieko Shibasaki, only two years older than Fujino, she joined the band after graduating from high school, and is currently a guitarist in a popular rock band............

As a guitarist, she has always had a crush on the lead singer of her rock band: Tatsuya Kimura.

Just a while ago, she couldn't bear that restless heart and finally confessed to Tatsuya Kimura.

But the result is obvious, and it was rejected outright.

When refusing, the guy also said: He already has a girl he likes, and he will wait until the girl comes back.

Heartbroken, Mieko wonders where she can't compare to that girl.

That's why he deliberately found Fujino and asked him to find out who Tatsuya Kimura liked.

"So, Miss Mieko Shibasaki wants me to find out who the girl Tatsuya Kimura likes?"

"That's right."

Mieko Shibasaki, who listened to Fujino's explanation, nodded, "If you can, it's best to ask Detective Fujino to conduct a secret investigation without being discovered." ”

"I remember Tatsuya Kimura seems to be a very popular idol, right?"

"When you look at idols of this level, the commission fee is much more expensive than usual, about 500,000 yen."

"I'll pay 500,000 yen."

Hearing that Fujino offered a price of 500,000 yen, Shibazaki Mieko did not hesitate a little and immediately agreed.

"That would be the case............

Fujino is very satisfied with Mieko's refreshment.

Although she is not a rich woman, this girl is also a high-quality customer.

Fujino nodded and poured her a cup of black tea: "I took your commission, and I promise to investigate secretly and not be discovered by anyone." ”

"I wonder when the commission money will be given to you?" Mieko took the black tea and asked, "If I can, I can pay all the entrustment money now." ”

"No hurry, no hurry."

"In the case of entrustment money, a one-tenth of the deposit is usually paid at the time of entrustment, and the rest of the entrustment fee is paid after the entrustment is completed."

Fujino chuckled, looking at Mieko in front of him, the more he looked at it, the more pleasing it became.

"I see."

Mei Jiangzi nodded, and then took out her credit card: "Can I use the deposit by card?" ”

Fujino: "............"

This seems to be the second time, right?

Don't people carry cash now?

"Ahem."

Fujino coughed lightly, "It doesn't matter if you don't have cash, it's okay when the time comes, I'll settle it together, I believe that Miss Mieko is a trustworthy person." ”

"Oh."

Mieko nodded, "In that case, thank you for your trust." ”

Fujino sighed as he watched her take the card back.

Then he said to Mieko: "But there is one thing I still have to warn Miss Mieko in advance." ”

"What's the matter?"

"According to my rich investigative experience, a relationship investigation like this generally does not end well."

In Mieko's surprised gaze, Fujino continued to say seriously: "After learning who the person he likes is, Miss Mieko, are you sure you can accept the reality?" ”

Hearing this, Shibazaki Mieko couldn't help but shake her head.

Oh, yes............

She didn't think about what to do when she found out who Tatsuya Kimura really liked.

Maybe she'll try to change ......

But what if that person is someone she can't replace?

Thinking about it, she clutched the jeans that covered her thighs with both hands, and the expression on her face gradually declined, and finally turned to a little loneliness.

"Thank you, Detective Fujino, for the reminder."

After thanking Fujino, she made up her mind: "As long as I can investigate who the person Tatsuya likes is............ For me, I'm satisfied. ”

"In that case, then I accept this commission."
