Chapter 110: Hanayacho
After leaving the Echo Coffee House, Li Wu dialed Lilia's phone at home.
"Is it convenient to talk now?"
He remembered that the last time Lilia mentioned that Lesson Nine had recently encountered a number of suspected intelligence leaks in electronic communications and networks, so he asked this first sentence.
Miss Detective's somewhat tired voice came from the phone: "Wait a minute...... Well, tell me about it - wow! ”
"Did something happen to you over there?"
Li Wu heard what sounded like a pile of debris pouring down.
"Ahem, ahem! Which non-compliant guy put the seized illegal parts on the cabinet in the communication room?! I'm going to...... Take a little effort to get out of this garbage heap...... Climb out, it's okay, I can work hard while listening! ”
The atmosphere of the ninth class of public security is still as wonderful as the last time he saw it, and he can only wish her good luck.
Li Wu mentioned to her what had happened today.
Ryusuke Ando...... He was indeed in a romantic relationship with the victim, and we contacted him after the incident. ”
Li Wu seemed to see through the screen of his mobile phone that the detective lady buried in the pile of parts was speeding up the gears in his head.
From what she said was another part of the incident, the details were completed.
Similar to some of his peers, while doing the hardcore business of gangsters, the Isokai Group also has a lot of industries in the gray area and even in the sunlit world.
For example, it operates several charitable foundations under its name, which on the one hand provide security services for members when they are old, and on the other hand, they will also fund the education and growth of some orphans, in exchange for their return when they grow up and devote themselves to various industries.
Ryusuke Ando is such a person, but he didn't choose to maintain only inextricable contact with the Isokai group, but resolutely entered the group as a teenager, recognized Antang as his father, and became a lowliest minion.
For the Isokai Group, which was established with mermaids as the core, most of the ordinary people can only be the lowest level of Ruozhong and the younger brothers, and it is difficult to even become a cadre - after all, they can't connect with their own bosses, who are actually aquatic creatures.
However, Ryusuke Yasudo quickly accumulated seniority and merits, and was eventually even appointed as the head of the organization, who would inherit the power of the organization.
"Wait a minute, he's not an ordinary person."
Li Wu interrupted the narration on the other side.
"It's true that Ryusuke Ando has never shown extraordinary abilities in public before, otherwise the Nine Lessons would have at least some relevant records."
Lilia asked rhetorically, "Do you think he had something to do with the victim's death?" ”
"I remember that after her death, there were traces of heat burns in her abdomen, and it is not surprising that there is such an association."
Although Li Wu replied so, he also knew that it was difficult to say that Ryusuke Yasudo was involved in the murder of Tomomi Isomi based on this alone.
Otherwise, he would be a suspect himself.
What's more, no matter how you look at Ryusuke Ando, he lacks the motivation to start, and he will be selected as the next generation heir of the Isokai group, which is probably largely related to the relationship with the daughter of the team leader.
Even if you want to play the drama of eating the lord with a son-in-law, you should wait until you officially take over the Isohai group.
Li Wu was very suspicious that he was now in an unstable position, so he rushed to the doctor to find trouble with Aoki and them.
Thinking of this, he asked Lilia again if she had investigated the fact that Tomomi Isomi had joined the idol group before her death.
Half an hour later, she sent a video file.
Li Wu returned to his room, turned on the computer, and clicked on the video while maintaining the call.
The content is a performance performed by the three members of the Monster Girl Group and the human-like Tomomi Isomi, and the living mermaid Miss and Ryoko Aoki stand side by side in the front row, holding the microphone tightly.
In all fairness, her singing voice was indeed a notch better than the remaining three, and she sparked the warmest applause in the solo session.
"That was her only performance, and she didn't stay in this idol team for long, so she should have joined without permission from her family."
Li Wu turned off the video and asked the last question: "Do you know where the headquarters of the Isokai Group is?"
“…… Mr. Li Wu shouldn't do anything very messy, right? ”
"How come, Lilia still can't trust me?"
Li Wu said frankly and honestly.
That night, he went out with a paper bag with hollowed out eye sockets.
If Lilia hadn't mentioned that Ryusuke Yasudo had never shown extraordinary abilities before, he might not have gone to this trouble.
Rather than hiding himself all this time and then exposing his feet during a brawl, Li Wu would rather believe that he had only recently acquired superpowers.
Lilia may also be reminiscent of the rumors of artificially developed superpowers spread by the Unification Society, but there is no way she can do anything without evidence.
It's a different story with the vicious paper bag thugs.
I don't know if this is another kind of coincidence, but he actually came to Hanaya Town, where the Isomi group is located, once.
It's located near Isobe Seaside Park, where I passed by on my way to visit Arisa's house, but it now has a more eye-catching landmark than the base of the Gokudo Organization, rooted in the seaside road.
With a total height of 119 floors and a structural height of 582 meters, the skyscraper spirals upward, like a giant tree growing out of the ground, and compared to it, the Central Police Station building where Li Wu once went is simply a dwarf.
Every floor of the building is brightly lit, but compared to the scene outside the building, it suddenly becomes a little firefly.
The huge holographic screens projected on the exterior wall are like a colorful halo on them, and the screen loops animations, advertising slogans, and corporate propaganda of cute girls singing and dancing, creating intense light pollution.
At the top of this Tower of Babel-like building stands the name of its owner: Lembongong Media Technology Group.
When he actually came to Hanayacho, Li Wucai discovered the great influence of this enterprise and the products it launched.
At the entrance to the street in front of you, the black font of "Hanayacho Ichiban Street" hangs above the electronic arch that flashes red dots, and at the end there is a cute image of the AI idol Nero.
Behind the door were neon signs, huddled together like they were about to pounce on him, and Nero could be heard humming from time to time in the surrounding restaurants, bars, clubs, and even custom establishments.
Even though it was late at night, it was still like a drunken beauty, tempting every passer-by into her arms with a luxurious atmosphere that bordered on decay.
Li Wu walked against the surging crowd towards the corner of the street.
There's an extra layer of visual pollution in his perspective.
Dense text is crowded together: [Drunk], [Gangster], [Shampoo Company Executive], [God Treats Girl], [College Student]...... It's so dense that it makes you feel a certain feeling of vomiting.
He slapped the [thief's] hand away, and as he passed by, he punched away the [abductor] who was pestering several girls, and bypassed the [porcelain bumper] lying in front of him.
A man with a "homeless man" on his head threw himself on a Nero doll sold in a street shop, tearing it and cursing loudly, "It's all your fault! It's all your fault! ”
He was quickly kicked away by the angry boss, rolled over half a circle, and crouched on the side of the road like a stray dog whining and whining.
The cries and noises were gradually thrown behind like boiling water that had calmed down from its boiling state.
The closer you get to your destination, the more the true side of Hanayacho is revealed, like a beautiful woman taking off her makeup and revealing a few hidden scars.
Houses are getting low, from modern buildings to dilapidated bungalows, where drunks and homeless people gather around a fire baked with garbage cans on the undeveloped vacant land of a real estate company.
The headquarters of the Isokai Gumi is a large area of land enclosed by a wall, which is said to have been purchased at a low price when they first moved to Chiyo City, and on it stands three houses with large distances and a maze of finished glyph houses and a labyrinth of garden decorations.
Li Wu easily climbed over the wall, applauding himself for his perfect infiltration.
Then he caught eye with a guy who was dangling with a beer can.
"Paper Bag ......"
Before he could say anything, he grabbed his head and slammed it against the wall, and the gills on his neck opened and closed, and he passed out.
"If I had known, I would have gone to Miss Akabane to ask for an invisibility talisman."
Li Wu choked the throat of the Isokai Group cadre he suddenly met around the corner of the courtyard, and didn't let go of his hand until he rolled his eyes.
His infiltration was flawless, and it was all the fault of these extremists who didn't sleep in the middle of the night.
He looked back at the grass that had already filled four or five people, and threw it into the fountain in the courtyard.
Li Wu speculated that the only difference in painting style among the three buildings was the antique bungalow in the upper left corner, which was formed into a "mouth" structure, which was probably where high-ranking cadres such as Ryusuke Ando were located.
As he was moving, two more members of the Isokai group appeared in front of him with their backs to him.
They were talking about something as they walked forward shoulder to shoulder.
“…… I heard that another new person has joined our group? Or the stinky tramp who was kicked out? Lately they've been more and more like cockroaches......"
"That damn AI is really powerful, don't talk about this, that's my old club......"
Li Wu followed and walked behind them, as if greeting him, and put it on the shoulder of the one on the right who spoke first.
"Who...... Aba! ”
He turned his head and saw a swift knife strike, and then fell straight down.
The man on the left suddenly raised his hands.
"I'm not from the Isokai group!"
Li Wu already knew.
Among the people who have [Isohai Group XX] written on their heads, he is the only one who is a former employee of the Blue Dream Group.
But now face to face, he suddenly felt that this person was a little familiar.
"Ah, it's a bank robber."
From the dead end of his memory, Li Wu fished out the impression of this face, but the words on his head changed.
It was a team of robbers he met on his way to chase the leprechaun with Arisa, and he also stepped on their car.
"Not robbers! Not robbers! We had an accident and didn't do anything! ”
Hirata retorted repeatedly, he didn't know how the guy who suddenly appeared in front of him with a paper bag on his head knew that he had planned the action in a desperate situation, but he knew that he would definitely not be able to stun a strong adult at once.
Li Wu didn't care about his argument either, and asked directly, "What do you want to do when you sneak into the Isokai Group?" ”
"I'm here...... Stepping on the dots. ”
He replied with a roll of his eyes.
Li Wu menacingly kicked the members of the Isokai group who were lying on the ground.
Hirata Makoto swallowed his saliva and said with difficulty: "The leader of the Isokai team is seriously ill, I need the medicine provided to him by the Blue Dream Group, of course, it would be good if I could make some money by the way." ”
"Wait a minute, isn't that a media company?"
Li Wu asked unexpectedly.
"I used to be its employee, and then the big bosses felt that AI was better to use and more obedient than me, so this job was ruined." He twisted his shoes from side to side as if he was going to crush something, "I know it's not just a media company, buddy. ”
He also called him a brother quite familiarly: "I don't know what your purpose is, but I've been here for a few days, and I'm familiar with the route and the places of the big guys, and I can show you the way." Believe me, that medicine is absolutely priceless when sold outside, as long as you leave one for me, and the money can be given to you. ”
If it weren't for the fact that his legs were still trembling slightly, Li Wu might have felt that this was a seasoned negotiator.
He thought for a moment, then lifted the leg of the unlucky man who had fainted and threw it into the man's arms as if he were handing over goods: "Hide it, and then lead the way." ”
Makoto Hirata was overjoyed and threw his former companion into the large dumpster next to him.
With a mole leading the way, there is actually not much difference.
Li Wu, who had comprehended the true essence of stealth, did not intend to follow the safe route he had figured out, and would just directly defeat every Extreme Dao element who discovered them.
Makoto Hirata's expression on the side changed from initial fright to ecstasy, and after Li Wu performed "how to swing an invisible punch at a speed that is unreactive and knock down the patrol head-on".
"Thirty-second and thirty-third ......"
When he counted to the thirty-third, the two of them came to the bungalow in the upper left corner.
According to Makoto Hirata added on the way, the Isokai group has maintained a cooperative relationship with the Lembongan Group for a long time.
A considerable number of the company's employees who have been eliminated using the latest AI technology have become homeless people on the streets, and the Isokai group, who are also entrenched in this area, are like scavenging vultures devouring the residue, accepting these talents sent to the outside world.
It was in this process that the two got on the line, and then formed a special symbiotic relationship, with the former providing financial support to the latter and the latter serving them when needed.
Now in this special period when the Isokai group is mobilized for the accident of the eldest lady, the team leader is sick due to too much grief, which is why the guard is so strict tonight.
At the gate of the bungalow were guarded by two fierce men, who had bulging pockets around their waists and were wearing pistols at a glance.
Behind the shaded bushes, Makoto Hirata nervously asked, "What to do?" They have guns. ”
"I can be a decoy to distract them, but you have to remember to leave me a pill!"
He hesitated for a moment and looked at the paper bag freak next to him: "What about people?!" ”
Li Wu stepped out of the bushes and walked unhurriedly towards the door like a visiting tourist.
The two guards pressed their hands to their guns, and just as they were about to speak, they heard a whistling wind, and then their eyes went black.
Li Wu withdrew his hands that had held their heads together, and let the two bodies slip off.
This is a frontal assassination technique.
Makoto Hirata was stunned and followed from behind.
“…… Are you sure this is where the high-level officials of the Isokai Group live? ”
Li Wu stretched out his hand and ran over the thick cobwebs on the door frame, lighting up an invisible fire to burn the spider silk wrapped around his hands, "It must have been a few years since anyone lived, right?" ”
Makoto Hirata hurriedly stepped into the door first: "I'm sure, I'll tell you about their respective rooms......"
He froze suddenly.
Li Wu quickly learned the reason for his reaction.
Perhaps because it is in the main department, the door of the house is not locked, and after it is opened, there is a small courtyard within the word "mouth", which is arranged with a bamboo water landscape.
And by the side of the stone that undertakes the flowing water, leaning on a burly figure.
If he stood up, Li Wu felt that he could be about two meters tall.
But that was an impossible assumption, for the figure was glaring at the door with its eyes wide open, and its lower body dragged a large fishtail with scales glittering in the moonlight.
The red liquid poured from the bamboo tube and irrigated it in the hollow in the center of the stone reminded Li Wu of the scene he had seen killing fish in the seafood market before.
If I'm not mistaken, this should be the leader of the Isokai group, who is said to be seriously ill.
He's dead.
