Chapter 37 Shibasaki Mieko’s Commission
After school, Fujino's house.
[Detective Career Mission: The Bandage Monster Incident
Mission goal: solve or prevent the murder
Mission-limited countdown: within twenty-four hours after the death of the incident victim
Mission reward: 500,000 yen bounty, 50 detective reputation points]
"The Bandage Monster Murder Case?"
Fujino stood in front of the balcony, looking at the new system tasks that appeared on the system interface, with a glint in his deep eyes.
This case, if Fujino remembers correctly, should be related to Suzuki Ayako.
Suzuki Ayako founded a film club when she was in college.
After all members of the club graduated, the members of the film club agreed to reunite every two years.
This time, the gathering was held at the Suzuki family's forest villa.
As for why there are murders...
It was all because of Chikako Ikeda, a popular writer who was also in the club back then.
Chikako Ikeda plagiarized the idea of a girl named Tunzi, and won the Best Newcomer Award that year for "The Blue Kingdom" written with the plagiarized idea.
Unlike Chikako Ikeda's future of becoming a popular female writer in the literary world, Tunzi, whose original idea was plagiarized, hanged herself in depression because she had no way to appeal.
In order to avenge her, Ryoichi Takahashi, who had always been secretly in love with Tsunade, used clever techniques to brutally dismember Chikako Ikeda at the party a few days later at the Suzuki family's forest villa...
"Dong dong dong!"
At this time, a knock on the door suddenly interrupted Fujino's thoughts.
"Is it the client again?"
Fujino was stunned when he heard the sound.
There are probably too many commissions on the weekend.
There are more commissions than I can accept during a normal working day...
Putting away his thoughts, Fujino slowly stood up.
Walking past the 100-square-meter bedroom, he walked to the door and opened it.
What caught his eye was a girl with a tuft 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 spoke first.
Fujino showed a professional fake smile out of politeness and asked, "That's me. What do you want to see me for?"
"Hello Detective Fujino, I was introduced here by an acquaintance..."
The girl first greeted politely, then told how she knew this, and then asked cautiously: "I wonder if Detective Fujino would accept the commission of investigating who the girl the target likes is? "
"If you entrust this kind of thing..."
Fujino hesitated to speak, and couldn't help but have a lot of thoughts in his heart.
Being a detective is not about killing people, but about being familiar with the world.
Each client has his or her own circle. Once the client is secured, everyone in that circle will become potential customers.
The reason why the girl found Fujino was most likely not because of her fame, but because she heard about him from her friends in the circle.
To be honest, Fujino really didn't want to accept this kind of commission that smelled of love.
But after all, he was introduced by an acquaintance, and he is very polite, so let’s get to know him first.
After all, people cannot be judged by their appearance.
What if this girl is a rich woman?
After entering the house, the girl first took off the peaked cap on her head, revealing the unconventional red hair on the front of her hair, and then made her purpose clear.
The girl's name is Shibazaki Mieko. She is 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 hold back her restless heart and finally confessed her feelings to Kimura Tatsuya.
But the result was obvious and he was rejected outright.
When refusing, the guy also said: He already has a girl he likes and will wait until the girl comes back.
A heartbroken Mijiangko wonders how she falls short of that girl.
That’s why I specifically found Fujino and asked him to find out who Kimura Tatsuya liked.
"So, Ms. Mieko Shibasaki wants me to find out who the girl Tatsuya Kimura likes is?"
"That's right."
Mieko Shibazaki nodded as she listened to Fujino's explanation, "If possible, it would be best to ask Detective Fujino to conduct a secret investigation without being discovered."
"I remember that Kimura Tatsuya was a very popular idol, right?"
"The commission fee for investigating an idol of this level is much higher than usual, about half a million yen."
"I'll pay half a million yen."
After hearing Fujino's offer of five hundred thousand yen, Mieko Shibasaki immediately agreed without any hesitation.
"That being the case, it couldn't be better..."
Fujino was very satisfied with Mijioko's cheerfulness.
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 will accept your request. I promise to investigate it secretly and not be discovered by anyone."
"I wonder when the commission fee will be paid to you?" Mijiangzi took the black tea and asked, "If it is possible, I can pay the entire commission fee now."
"No rush, no rush."
"As for the commission fee, one-tenth of the deposit is usually paid when the commission is made, and the remaining commission fee is paid after the commission is completed."
Fujino chuckled, looking at Mijiangzi in front of him more and more pleasing to his eyes.
"So that's it."
Mijiangzi nodded, and then took out his credit card: "Can the deposit be paid by credit card?"
Fujino: “…………”
This seems to be the second time, right?
Don’t people carry cash nowadays?
"Ahem."
Fujino coughed lightly, "It doesn't matter if you don't have cash. We'll settle it together when the time comes. I believe Miss Mieko is a person of her word."
"oh."
Mijiangzi nodded, "In that case, thank you for your trust."
Fujino watched her take back the bank card and sighed.
Then he said to Mijiangzi: "But there is something I still have to remind Miss Mijiangzi in advance."
"What's up?"
"According to my rich investigative experience, love investigations like this usually don't end well."
Under Mieko's surprised gaze, Fujino continued to say seriously: "After learning who he likes, Miss Mieko, are you sure you can accept the reality?"
Hearing this, Mie Shibazaki couldn't help but be stunned.
yes…………
She had not thought about what she would do after she found out who Kimura Tatsuya liked.
Maybe she will try to change...
But what if that person is irreplaceable for her?
As she thought about it, she clenched the jeans that hugged her thighs with both hands. The expression on her face gradually became depressed, and finally turned into a little lonely.
"Thank you Detective Fujino for the reminder."
Thanking Fujino, she made up her mind: "As long as I can find out who Tatsuya likes... I will be satisfied."
"In that case, I will accept this commission."
