Chapter 398 Terui Ryu’s Request

Narumi Detective Agency.

After Shotaro Zuo decided to keep Sudo Kirihiko on his own initiative, the Detective Agency had another mouth to eat, causing the financial pressure on Narumi Detective Agency to become even greater.

Narumi Asukiko looked at Zuo Shotarou who was leisurely drinking coffee, his face became gloomy, he took out his green slippers and patted Zuo Shotarou on the head, making a soft sound.

"It hurts!" Zuo Shotaro covered his forehead, raised his head and looked at Narumi Asukiko, and said helplessly: "Asukiko, what's wrong?"

"I don't have time for you to rest, hurry up and work for me! These are the commissions you have to take!" Narumi Asukiko placed a stack of commissions in front of Zuo Shotarou and said.

Shotaro Zuo picked up these commissions and looked through them briefly before he couldn't help but stand up and shouted: "Ashuko, why is it another commission to find a pet!"

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Narumi Asukiko put his hands on his hips, looked at Zuo Shotaro, and said coldly: "You can't make a penny just by pretending to be a tough guy here. If you continue like this, you won't even be able to get half-boiled eggs." I can’t even eat it!”

"Wouldn't it be better to let Kirihiko do such a small thing?" Shotaro Zuo said with a look of resistance, pointing at Sudo Kirihiko who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea and admiring the Fudu Tower in the distance.

There is nothing tough about such a trivial matter like finding a pet.

The commission he wants to accept is of course the kind that requires a very tough guy.

"Do you expect a newcomer who has just been a detective assistant for two days to complete the agency's commission? Do you want the detective agency to close down?" Narumi Asukiko reached out and grabbed Zuo Shotaro's collar.

Sudou Kirihiko looked at the noisy Narumi Asakiko and Zuo Shotaro with a smile on his face.

It's a really nice place. It's much livelier than Sonosaki's house, and it has a more life-like atmosphere.

He likes it here.

At this time, the door of Narumi Detective Agency was suddenly pushed open, and a cute girl with a pure and sweet appearance and long black hair reaching her waist walked in.

Seeing the girl walking in, Zuo Shotarou's eyes suddenly lit up, he pushed Narumi Asakiko in front of him, straightened his appearance, walked forward quickly, and said handsomely: "Miss, you Is there any commission? No matter what kind of commission it is, I can complete it very hard."

However, the girl ignored Shotaro Zuo. Instead, she looked at Kirihiko Sudou, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, and said with a smile: "Brother!"

"Yukie? Why are you here?" Sudo Kirihiko was a little surprised when he saw Sudo Yukie walking in.

"Well, of course I came to see where Ni-chan lives." Sudou Yukie said with a smile.

"Ni-chan?!" Zuo Shotaro opened his mouth wide, looked at Sudou Yukie, then looked at Sudou Kirihiko, and said in shock: "Is this your sister?"

"That's right, let me introduce you. This is my biological sister, Sudou Yukie." Sudou Kirihiko stood up from the sofa and introduced Zuo Shotaro and the others.

"This is Shotaro Zuo, a half-assed tough guy detective and Kamen Rider W."

"Hey! It's a tough guy detective, you detective assistant!" Zuo Shotaro said with a look of confusion on his face when he heard this.

"This is Asukiko Narumi, the director of the office."

"This is Philip, the brains of Kamen Rider W." Sudo Kirihiko introduced Suto Yukie in turn.

"Hello everyone, thank you for taking care of my brother." Sudou Yukie bowed slightly to the three of them and thanked him.

"Please rest assured Yukie-chan, I will take good care of Kirihiko." Shotaro Zuo approached Sudou Yukie and said coolly.

"Thank you." Sudou Yukie couldn't help but smile awkwardly when she looked at Shotaro Zuo who was acting cool in front of her.

"Okay, okay, you half-hearted tough guy, don't get carried away. Can't you see that I'm already troubled?" Asukiko Narumi grabbed Zuo Shotarou's ear and pulled him aside.

"It hurts!" Zuo Shotaro complained, rubbing his ears.

"By the way, is Kirihiko-san's sister also a member of Consortium X?" Philip, who had been reading, suddenly raised his head, looked at Sudo Kirihiko, and asked.

"No." Sudou Kirihiko shook his head and explained: "But Yukie and I have been funded by Consortium X since we were very young. Without Consortium Thank you boss."

"So, this is why you work for Consortium X?" Zuo Shotaro asked curiously.

"This is part of the reason." Sudou Kirihiko organized his thoughts, considered his tone, and said, "You may not believe it, but Consortium X is actually a salvation organization."

"Huh? Save the world? Are you right?" Zuo Shotaro said with an exaggerated expression.

"No, I'm serious." Sudou Kirihiko looked at Zuo Shotaro with a serious face and said.

"Interesting." Philip closed the book in his hand and said with interest: "Can you tell me more about it?"

"Of course, I originally planned to tell you about this." Sudou Kirihiko nodded, organized some words, and said: "Consortium X discovered a different world more than ten years ago - the Heim Underworld. .”

"Heim underworld?" Philip asked doubtfully.

"It was a forest full of strange-shaped or strangely colored plants, and there were a large number of unintelligent weirdos living in it. These weirdos were called aliens by Consortium X."

"These aliens don't have any intelligence and will actively attack all life they see."

"Could it be that these aliens will eventually come over?" Narumi Yasukiko asked.

"If this were the case, it wouldn't be considered a world-ending crisis. What's really dangerous about the Helm Underworld is its erosion of the earth." Sudou Kirihiko said with a bitter smile.

"erosion?"

"Yes, the Heim Underworld is not currently connected to the real world, but occasionally there will be some space cracks leading to the Heim Underworld. These space cracks will last for an indefinite period of time and will eventually disappear on their own."

"Wherever there are space cracks, plants and fruits unique to the Helm Underworld will grow nearby."

"Human beings have no ability to resist such fruits. When they see it, they want to eat it. If they eat it, they will become aliens."

"In other words, once the Heim underworld comes to the earth, humans on the earth will either be unable to withstand the temptation of the fruit and eat the fruit and turn into monsters, or they will be killed by the monsters in the Heim underworld?" Philip asked.

"That's it." Sudou Kirihiko nodded and said: "In order to deal with the crisis in the underworld of Helm, Consortium X has invested in many projects. Including but not limited to Gaia memory, undead soldiers, super soldiers, core coins, Items like astronomical switches, ancient magic, and more.”

Sudou Kirihiko relayed the words that Shen Yun used to fool him to Zuo Shotaro and others.

"So, in my opinion at the time, if only sacrificing some scum can save most people, then this part of the sacrifice is worth it. But... you woke me up." Sudou Kirihiko looked at Shotaro Zuo in front of him said.

"You mean, Consortium X is not a bad person?" Zuo Shotaro felt a little ridiculous.

"No, you can't say that. Anyway, it's better to be careful." Sudou Kirihiko also recalled what Sonosaki Ryubei said to him, as well as that meaningful smile.

Consortium X was far from as simple as he saw, but what else didn't he know?

……

A few more days passed.

Inside the underground research base.

"Oh? Kiruhiko joined the Narumi Detective Agency and became the detective assistant of Shotaro Zuo?" Chen Yun couldn't help but raise his eyebrows after listening to A2's report, and said with a smile: "This is not a big deal for him. It’s a good place to go, too. Anything else?”

"Sonosaki Ryuhei invited you to the luncheon. He probably wants to talk to you about Sudo Kirihiko. In recent times, the activities of Sudo Kirihiko and Kamen Rider W have caused the amount of memory to be circulated. Big discount." A2 replied. "Really? Then let's go there." Shen Yun nodded and said.

At the same time, the Seagull billiards court.

Shotaro Zuo rubbed the club in his hand, looking at the club with a look of intoxication.

"Billiards, this is an adult sport that fits the image of 'Hard Boiled'."

Shotaro Zuo picked up the white ball, tossed it gently, and placed it in the middle. While picking up the chocolate powder and smearing it on his head, he continued to spread his thoughts and immersed himself in his delusions.

“Calculating the direction of a scattered ball while patiently chasing it to the end is very similar to the job of a detective.”

"In short, billiards is a game born for me." Shotaro Zuo put down the chocolate powder, and then turned the cue with his fingers. Just after turning around, the cue was thrown out by Shotaro Zuo and landed on the ground. There was a loud bang on the other table.

Shotaro Zuo glanced at the club that flew out, as if nothing had happened. He picked up a club leaning against the wall next to him, and simply turned it around with his fingers. Shotaro Zuo then lay down. Lying on the billiard table, he slowly leaned forward and placed the billiard cue in his hand on the tiger's mouth of his left hand. His index and middle fingers slowly stood up as support for the cue.

Shotaro Zuo held the tail of the rod in his right hand, with a fascinated smile on his face, and aimed his head at the white ball on the table.

After twitching back and forth a few times, Shotaro Zuo suddenly thrust the club forward in his hand.

And this fast, accurate and hard putt turned out to be such a miss.

Not only was the shot empty, but the club in his hand flew out and stabbed straight towards the door blocked by the heavy curtain.

Looking at the club flying out, Shotarou Zuo also had a look of astonishment on his face.

At the same time, a fiery red motorcycle drove over and slowly stopped at the entrance of the Seagull Billiards Court.

The man sitting on the motorcycle, wearing a dark red leather jacket, also turned over and got off the motorcycle, reached out and took off his helmet, revealing his cold and tough face.

After looking up at the signboard of the Seagull Billiards Room, Terui Ryu stepped in.

At this time, Ryu Terui, who was wearing a fiery red leather jacket, also opened the curtain at the entrance of the Seagull billiards court and walked in.

Looking at the oncoming pool cue, Terui Ryu turned slightly to one side, then reached out and grabbed the cue in his hand.

"Hahaha..." Shotaro Zuo looked at Terui Ryu who had grabbed the club, pretending to be nonchalant, and laughed dryly: "As an expert, I actually made such an unreasonable mistake."

With that said, Shotaro Zuo walked up to Terui Ryu and asked for the club.

But Terui Ryu directly ignored Shotaro Zuo, came to the white ball on the billiard table, and asked: "The detective office is on the second floor, right?"

"Ah, yes." Zuo Shotaro replied subconsciously.

After saying that, Shotaro Zuo turned to look at Ryu Terui, who was leaning down and planning to hit the ball, and asked: "Who are you?"

"The client." Terui Ryuu said and pushed out the club in his hand.

"Ah!"

The white ball shot out like an arrow and hit the triangular billiard ball. The triangular billiard ball exploded instantly and then rolled into the hole.

In the end, there was only a solitary white ball still rolling on the table.

One stroke clears the table.

Shotaro Zuo stared blankly at the table that had been cleared by one shot, then looked at the stern-faced Ryu Terui, and said to himself: "He is a tough guy."

After hitting all the balls in the hole with one shot, Terui Ryu threw the club in his hand to Shotaro Zuo, then turned around and walked towards the second floor.

Seeing this, Shotaro Zuo also dropped his club and followed Terui Ryu up to the second floor.

Arriving at the detective office on the second floor, Terui Ryu walked straight to Asukiko Narumi, took out his police card and said, "I have a commission and I want to ask you for help."

"Police... surveillance? Huh?! Police surveillance!" Asukiko Narumi looked at Terui Ryu's police card and said in surprise.

There are 10 levels of Japanese police, and the police force is the sixth level among them.

Terui Ryu is a police officer at such a young age, so he has a bright future. If he works harder, he might be able to reach the position of police chief when he is forty or fifty years old.

As for a policeman who drives a sports car in a few years, even if he works for a lifetime, he will probably only be able to reach the level that Terui Ryu is now, and maybe not even there.

The true starting point is your end point.

"Police surveillance? Just you?" Zuo Shotaro glanced at Terui Ryu, feeling a little repelled by this guy who was too tough.

"I am Terui Ryu." Terui Ryu said, then he put away the police card in his hand, took out a few photos from the inside pocket of his leather jacket, threw them on the table, and said: "I want to find, recently The prisoner who frequently suffers from strange freezing incidents.”

Narumi Yasuki looked at the photos and said, "This is obviously done by a dopant."

"This is what you are best at."

"Humph, what a coincidence." Zuo Shotarou snorted, took the photo in Asukiko Narumi's hand, looked at it a few times, then put one hand on the table, looked at Terui Ryu, and said disdainfully: "In Tough Guy Detectives who survive in this world will not bow to power so easily."

Terui Ryu ignored Zuo Shotaro, but took out an envelope from the inner pocket of his leather jacket and threw it in front of Narumi Asukiko.

Seeing the envelope dropped by Terui Ryu, Naruka Asuki also reached out and picked it up, then opened it. After seeing a stack of ten thousand yuan bills inside the envelope, Narumi Asuki's eyes suddenly lit up and he looked towards Terui Ryu's eyes were like seeing the God of Wealth.

"These are just deposits. After completing the commission, there will be a balance payment!"

"Go back! Go back quickly!" Shotaro Zuo glared at Terui Ryu and shouted angrily.

Seeing how Zuo Shotaro treated the God of Wealth, Narukai Yajuko hit Zuo Shotaro on the head with his slipper.

"Ah, it hurts!"

After giving Shotarou Zuo a lesson, Akiko Narumi also poured a bowl of snacks for Terui Ryu with a smile on her face, and said sweetly: "Thank you for your patronage! Please take good care of me in the future!"

"Tieba!" Zuo Shotarou covered his nose and ears, clenched his fists, glared at Narumi Yasukiko, and said, "You are too greedy for money!"

"Then it's settled, Director."

"Yes!"

"The one on the left, I'll borrow it." Terui Ryuu said.

"Please, please! Shotarou-kun, go quickly! Hurry! Hurry!" Asukiko Narumi pushed Zuo Shotarou out with a smile on his face.

And the other side.

Shen Yun also temporarily put aside the development work of the omniscient and omnipotent memory, took A2 with him, and came to Sonosaki's house for a banquet. (End of chapter)
