Jiang Xia held the receiver: "You are the only person at the banquet named 'Omura' who can talk to Mr. Orange - think carefully about whether he left any hints or clues during his lifetime."

“Mr. Tachibana’s secret code is for you to ask me?” President Omura was even more confused.

However, Jiang Xia's words seemed to give him some kind of hint.

He thought about this for a while, and suddenly remembered something: "By the way! Speaking of which, the day before the birthday party, I went to Mr. Tachibana to get the manuscript of the new book. He smiled mysteriously at that time , he didn’t say whether he would answer or not, but he told me something strange.

“—He said that if someone comes to me and asks a question that I don’t understand, just tell that person, ‘Just ask Shi Ren’… Ah—! Who?! 伱, what are you doing?!”

 There was a dull "bang" sound through the phone.

 Followed by another messy muffled sound, it was the familiar sound of the collision of sticks and flesh.

Gradually, Jiang Xia heard that President Omura became silent, and the other side of the phone quickly became quiet.

 …

 Two kilometers away, at the home of President Omura.

A burly man, holding a golf club in his hand, stood next to President Omura, who was out of breath. He reached out to pick up the receiver hanging in the air and hung up the phone.

 He wore gloves, a hat and a mask, his face was tightly covered, and his figure was also covered by a large windbreaker.

After finishing his silence, the man glanced coldly at the body on the ground, tightened his mask, and quickly turned around and left.

 …

After Jiang Xia returned to the car, Belmod asked: "What happened?"

Although no sound could be heard through the phone booth, the wall of the phone booth was transparent. Belmode was looking inside just now and quickly judged that something happened on the other side of the phone, interrupting Jiang Xia's question.

"Omura answered the phone and was beaten to death." Jiang Xia buckled up his seat belt, "But before he died, he gave a new clue - 'Just ask Shi Ren and you will know.'"

 “Want to go to the big village to see it?” Belmode asked casually.

“Forget it.” Jiang Xia looked out the car window.

The place where President Omura lives is quite prosperous, and it happens to be daytime now, so the flow of people and cars is not small: "It's a distance of two kilometers and the road conditions are like this. By the time we get there, the murderer will have already run away - I don't want to really Just like in the memory, I ran to the scene of the crime to check the body, and then suddenly a group of 'witnesses' jumped out from behind...

“But I remember from the map that there is an overpass near Omura’s house. When you pass it, take a look at the situation and don’t get too close.”

Bermode thought so too, so she didn't drive towards Omura's house at first.

She held the steering wheel and walked towards the nearby viaduct in a detour as if inadvertently.

When he was about to reach the place, Belmod's eyes suddenly moved slightly:

There was a police car driving towards me in the distance, apparently heading towards Omura's house.

—President Omura was indeed dead, and someone directly called the police.

When Jiang Xia passed by the police car, she raised her hand to block the sunlight, just in time to block the police's unintentional glance.

The two cars met and then moved away. The police car found no problem and continued to drive towards Omura's house.

Bermode looked at the police car getting further and further away in the rearview mirror and smiled: "You are much more skilled than I thought."

Jiang Xia put down her hand: "If you play the game too much, you will always know how to avoid the NPC's perspective—walk a little further and look for the phone booth. Martial law may be imminent around here."

As she said, Belmode has extensive experience in evading the police.

The two people quickly found an area without police surveillance. Belmod parked the car next to the phone booth. Jiang Xia quickly walked in and got the phone without alerting anyone.

Before taking the dog off, President Omura said, “Just ask Mr. Toki.”

 So the next clue must be in the hands of the guest named "Shi Ren".

Now Jiang Xia and Belmod are considered action groups, while Gin magically makes a cameo appearance in the intelligence team.

Jiang Xia then put coins into the coin slot and dialed the phone number of Ginjiu's house, intending to get some information from him.

However, the bell rang for a long time and no one answered - it seemed that Gin was not at home at the moment.

Jiang Xia: “…” It’s really hard to imagine Gin staying at home and waiting for NPCs to feed him information. This person must have taken the initiative to go out and look for it…

With this thought in mind, he pressed down the phone, called the paging station, and sent a message to Ginjiu's BP machine, asking him to find a landline that could answer the phone as soon as possible. Once he found it, he would send the number to Jiang Xia's BP machine.

 …

 After sending the message, Jiang Xia returned to the car and continued driving around the city with Belmode.

After nearly half an hour, he found that his BP machine had not received any message. Jiang Xia sighed quietly: "Why hasn't there been a reply? He couldn't have done something accidentally when he was looking for someone to ask for clues. He is now..." Busy trying to avoid being wanted by the whole city."

"..." Belmode thought about Gin's temper, and suddenly felt that it was not impossible.

However, after all, I don’t want to have a pig teammate, and the chances of Gin being patient and enduring are not small.

So Belmode finally said objectively: "It may be that he happened to be walking halfway and couldn't receive the signal.

“I saw on the way here that there are very few base stations here. It’s okay in the city, but if you visit guests who live in scattered places in the suburbs, it is indeed easy to suddenly lose contact.

“—We have been waiting, and we don’t know how long we will wait. Let’s find a place to rest first. After driving for a long time, our waist is sore.”

Bermod has not done this kind of hard work of overtime driving for a long time, and he did not expect to experience it again here.

As she thought about it, her murderous intention towards Anonymous became a little stronger:

The effect of the disguise cannot be replicated, and this meaningless feeling of exhaustion is very close to reality - it is hard not to suspect that those guys are deliberately tormenting the members of the black organization.

 …

No identification is required to stay in the hotel. As long as there is a vacant room, you can enter by paying money.

The two of them found a hotel by the river. Belmod went to the room first and opened the window.

 After a while, the "wanted criminal" Jiang Xia took advantage of the darkness and climbed in through the window.

 “You’re really good at climbing up the window.”

Bermode leaned against the window and saw his flowing movements, and couldn't help but sigh as above.

Jiang Xia turned around and closed the window, pulled up the curtains, turned to look at her, and hesitated: "If you can't find anything to praise, you don't have to praise her."

Bermod blinked slowly: Isn’t this a compliment? She felt that she was very sincere, and it was rare for her to say whatever was on her mind...
