Vodka once said that the reward was issued near the early hours of last night and was solely for the purpose of finding her.

Until last night, she was either dealing with organizational matters or staying at home, and nothing unexpected had happened. The only time she went out was to attend the Christmas party at the Masuyama family.

To sum up, the only person who had a conflict with her recently was: Aburashi Yoshiaki!

Judging from the time, she left home after the police took Youqiao away again yesterday evening, and has been wandering around ever since without returning.

If Youqiao had returned to the office again, and this time he couldn't find her, and couldn't wait for her, so he posted a bounty on the dark web, which made sense. Isn't it?

This guy has shown in the past that he has connections in both the black and white worlds. He seems to have a very wide network of contacts, and his source of information is a mystery.

Looking at it this way, doesn't it fit with the characteristics of often obtaining intelligence through channels like the dark web?

------

Nishijima Detective Agency.

The office's phone number and Detective Nishijima's full name, "Nishijima Satoshi," can be found at a nearby telephone booth.

After the man returned home, he quickly closed the windows and doors and drew the curtains, trying to isolate himself completely, but his wife and children obviously did not understand this at all.

The school was on vacation, and the Nishijima family's high school son obviously couldn't stand loneliness, so he went out to play despite his father's strong opposition, while his wife sat in the kitchen downstairs talking on the phone.

Satoshi Nishijima had no choice but to lock himself in the study on the second floor, turn on his computer, log into the dark web, find the bounty post and start blasting it.

After he ran out of words, he finally calmed down a little and realized that he was hungry and cold. He hadn't eaten dinner since he came back.

So Nishijima Satoshi temporarily closed the website, left the room, went downstairs to bring his own dinner, and planned to read the posts while eating.

He came in, locked the door again, put down his bowl, and walked to the window, opened the curtains and looked out. Then he realized that the window was not closed tightly and the cold wind was pouring in through the window gap.

No wonder the room is so cold.

Nishijima closed the window again, drew the curtains, then sat back in front of the computer and clicked on an inconspicuous advertising link in the forum.

The computer blue screened.

Detective Nishijima was not in a hurry. He just entered his ID account twice on the blue screen interface, then lowered his head and continued eating.

Koizumi remembered that she had encountered this situation before when browsing the forum, but she thought the computer had malfunctioned and crashed, so she restarted it directly.

Koizumi cursed in his heart, this kind of landing design basically eliminates the possibility of accidental entry, unless the method of entry is clearly known, otherwise who would know.

Detective Nishijima buried his head in his meal, and only looked up at the computer after nearly a minute. Then, he stopped chewing, stared at the screen in disbelief, and his breathing began to become rapid.

Because of the blue screen, he could clearly see his own reflection on the screen and the woman standing behind him.

Detective Nishijima suddenly dropped the bowl in his hand and opened the drawer next to him. However, before he could touch the gun hidden inside, something hard pressed against his back. In his ear, the woman still said in a calm voice, "Calm down."

Then Detective Nishijima was forced to calm down.

At this time, after waiting for a full minute, the computer screen flashed twice again, and the picture automatically returned to the forum interface, but the forum partitions and posts were completely different from before.

Koizumi looked at the nickname displayed on the forum interface and said softly, "Smart... Master Ikkiu?"

The ultimate social death.

Detective Nishijima lowered his head, his face flushed. He couldn't swallow the food in his mouth, but he didn't dare spit it out. He couldn't say a word.

Koizumi chuckled. "Don't be afraid. I'm just here to check if you've completed the task I assigned you. Come on, click on the reward and show it to me."

Detective Nishijima opened the bounty interface again with trembling hands.

Koizumi saw the screen full of trash talk he was outputting below.

"What about the words I asked you to bring?"

Detective Nishijima wanted to speak, but he was choked by the food in his mouth and couldn't make a sound.

However, this person was smart. He quickly clicked on the employer's message interface and started sending messages to the other party in front of Koizumi. He even turned his head to look at her first to ask her to confirm whether she was satisfied with the content.

"Okay, that's it. Send it."

Less than a minute after the message was sent, the other party replied: "You saw her! Where did you see her? What was she doing at the time? What was she wearing? Who was she in contact with? Besides the words I asked you to bring to me, what else did she say?"

He is definitely a crazy fan of Sakurai.

Ah, the Oil Bridge.

Koizumi's teeth were chattering.

Nishijima obviously heard it and shrank his neck in fear.

Immediately afterwards, the status of the bounty post changed to "Completed", and Nishijima's cell phone, which was placed on the table, rang.

Even without looking at it, he knew that the reward had arrived.

He originally thought that this was a simple and lucrative mission, and that he could easily get 200,000 yen. However, he did not expect that not only his true identity was exposed, but also his family was threatened by the target of the mission!

But who would have thought that this little girl named Sakurai Izumi would be so powerful!

The way he behaves and the aura he carries himself don't seem like that of a police academy dropout at all. Instead, he seems like someone who specializes in doing dirty work in the dark web.

The more Detective Nishijima thought about it, the more frightened he became.

Could it be that he is in big trouble...

The woman standing behind him chuckled. "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I should go back to entertain the guests. Bye."

After saying that, she walked to the window.

Detective Nishijima finally relaxed a little, but the woman suddenly turned around and said, "Oh, right."

The man startled and looked at her warily.

Koizumi raised his gun and pointed it at him.

As expected, he was going to be silenced...

For a moment, Detective Nishijima was filled with despair and could not even think of resisting. All he could think about was whether his bank account was enough to support his children through college and whether his beautiful wife would remarry.

"Pfft".

A stream of water splashed on his face, scaring him so much that he screamed "Ah!" and finally spit out the food that had been stuck in his mouth.

"Hee hee hee."

Detective Nishijima stepped back hastily, wiping the water off his face.

Izumi Sakurai has disappeared.

"Honey?" Detective Nishijima's door was pushed. "What happened? Hey, why did you lock the door again? Humph, are you doing something bad in secret again!"

Then there was the sound of a key being inserted into the lock and the door opening.

Detective Nishijima was startled and hurriedly rushed to the computer to close the webpage.

The door was pushed open.

Mrs. Nishijima walked in, looked suspiciously at her panicked husband, then looked at the empty computer desktop. An angry expression appeared on her face. She walked over and grabbed his cheek: "You are so old, and you still hide from watching that kind of thing! Am I not good-looking enough or have you changed your mind?"
