Chapter 74 065. Huge amount
I suddenly opened my eyes, and what I saw was still the somewhat shabby ceiling. The surrounding darkness had been dissipated a lot by the sunlight that filtered through the curtains.
Li Ming half-sat down, his face a bit ugly, and holding his forehead with his right hand. He always felt as if someone had cut off the strings in his brain, and the stinging pain could not be dissipated for a long time.
Stretched out his hand to pick up the mobile phone placed aside, pressed the side power button, and seven eleven was displayed on the screen.
This is probably a habit that has been developed for a long time, or a biological clock. No matter how late or early Li Dian goes to bed, he will definitely wake up from 7 to 7:15 in the morning.
Today is January 19, 2023. Looking back on yesterday can’t be said to be exciting, but it has something to do with the unpredictability. The people I met yesterday accounted for a large part of Li Ming’s life. .
The trigger for everything was Jiang Wenkan’s mandatory request. Should I say that my hair was a good thing? Still a bad thing, but overall the pros should outweigh the cons.
It was precisely because of yesterday's experience that he realized how absurd the world he was in now was.
Li Dang stood upright and stretched, looking around at the furnishings in the office with confused eyes. This cold and damp place finally gave him an unbearable feeling of loneliness and desolation. What exactly was it? When can it warm up? Just like Yuzuki Izakaya.
Thinking of this, Li Ming couldn't help laughing at himself. He had realized a long time ago that warmth and dazzling were destined to miss him, unless...unless everything went back to the beginning.
Sitting on the sofa and taking a breath, Li Ming took a deep breath, with a tired look on his face. However, when he thought that he would be able to get clues about the realization of his wish today, his bad mood disappeared in an instant.
Open the curtains slightly to let the rays of the rising sun shine in. This is just to disperse the darkness and prevent the next guests from having the illusion of a damp and cold corner.
After washing, Li Ming sat at his desk, scrolling through his phone in a corner that was not exposed to the sun as much as possible.
As soon as I clicked on the news page as usual, there was a rapid knock on the door, accompanied by the sound of a silver bell hitting the door frame roughly.
Li Ming frowned slightly. Although he was curious about who was outside, out of politeness and the instinct of not daring to delay urgent matters, he quickly stood up, walked to the door and opened the wooden door.
The moment it was opened, the visitor clenched his fist and was about to hammer the already pitted wooden door. Unexpectedly, the fist hit Li Ming's left shoulder hard.
Looking at the fist that was not very exaggerated, Li Dang's face turned a little pale, and he endured the severe pain and invited the guests into the office.
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
My shoulder was almost dislocated by a beating, and I felt a little unsteady when I wrote. The whole line of words seemed to be swollen by warm water, and some Soft.
The person who came was a girl wearing a maid outfit. Her face was full of hatred at this moment. Although she was not tall and her appearance was not very outstanding, her overall performance was heart-warming. The thought "This girl is so cute" came to mind.
So is this girl a maid in a maid cafe in the streets of Chiba City? Why did you run out wearing such clothes?
When he thought that he was not very famous as a private detective, Li Ming subconsciously guessed the motive of the girl in front of him coming to the office. Could it be that the owner of the maid cafe was corporally punishing her, so he came to the office specifically to scare her? Her boss?
It is not unreasonable for Li Dang to think this way, because this kind of thing has never happened before.
The girl glanced angrily at the white paper in Li Dang's hand, swallowed, then calmed down her mood and spoke slowly.
“I want to report the crime!”
As soon as these four words came out, regardless of what she said next, Li Ming instantly became in awe, just like Yuan Qingyu explained yesterday the source of the Japanese criminal police's hatred for private detectives.
Reporting a crime is something that can only be said by professionals such as criminal police. So, if you put it this way, can you become a solo private detective in Chiba City, Chiba Prefecture?
"So, what kind of case is it?" Li Yan squinted his eyes, wrote the following words on the paper, and continued to wait for the next words of the girl dressed as a maid.
“It’s like this. I am a maid in a wealthy businessman’s family. I went home last month for some personal matters. But I didn’t expect that when I returned to my place of work, I was told by the police that I was a maid. The owner of the job attempted suicide by taking pesticides and is now in the hospital.”
Pesticides?
Li Dang frowned, with a puzzled expression on his face.
"Yes, that's the expression. I had exactly the same expression as you at the time." The girl was filled with grief and anger. "Although the master's fate was very tragic, his children, parents and even brothers and sisters all died because of the accident. But he behaves forever with me He is far from a positive side, and he also promised to marry me in the future."
Li Ming couldn't help but look sideways. Compared with the wealthy businessman who committed suicide with pesticides, all the people related to him died because of the accident. Death, this seems to be more concerning, right?
In addition, regarding the last sentence of the girl's narration, Li Ming couldn't help but snort, so what does this count? I feel so sad and angry that the promise was not fulfilled and I feel that someone must have framed me, right?
However, it should be said that committing suicide with pesticides does make people doubtful. If a person does not want to live, he can use faster ways to achieve the final goal, but pesticides. Life is already so painful, who would do it? Will he choose to die due to unforgettable pain before dying?
"So, what do you want me to investigate when you come to the office?"
"It is absolutely impossible for the master to commit suicide, absolutely impossible! I suspect there is something fishy here, and I suspect someone is framing him!"< br>
When the girl said this, her voice suddenly rose.
"You also find it strange, don't you! How can someone's family all die in an accident, but a wealthy businessman with great status and value chooses to commit suicide with pesticides in the end!? I suspect that someone is framed, it must be like this! My The judgment is absolutely correct!”
Are you a little too excited?
Li Ming pursed his lips. Out of politeness, the process still had to go through. After writing and drawing randomly on the white paper, he handed it to the girl in front of him: "Then, please sign your name here, and we will follow up on the follow-up matters." You informed me.”
“Don’t always do this formulaic thing, just say you don’t have enough money. .”
The girl took out a thick stack of brand-new Japanese yen banknotes from the pocket of her skirt. It was obvious that she had just taken them out of the bank, and she dropped them on the office table, stacked on top of each other. After the collision, the banknotes were spread all over the table. A rough estimate showed that there were about several hundred thousand yen.
Hundreds of thousands of yen!
Converted into understandable currency, half a million yen is almost twenty-five thousand dollars.
Li Ming was stunned. Since he came to Japan, he had never accepted such a large commission. With his spending ability, it would take at least several months to spend so many yen banknotes.
Wait a minute, am I dreaming? How come there is such a silly thing like Changkong in the world
