Special investigation report from Yokohama

"Xiaoyin?" Seeing that the girl had no more words, Hong Yao turned her head suspiciously.

Akutagawa Yin smiled: "I mean - if Miss Hongyao hadn't saved me, I would never have walked from the slums to the commercial district in my life."

"That's also Little Silver's own efforts." Hong Yao replied in a particularly firm tone.She is not the savior, and if Akutagawa Yin hadn't offered to learn from her, and indeed put in more effort than her outstanding talent, she would not have kept her by her side when dealing with the curse spirit.

That's not caring for an ordinary person, it's murder.

"What does Little Silver want to do in the future?" Thinking of this, Hong Yao asked.

Akutagawa Yin didn't think much about it, and just took her words as a question from the guide to the guided: "For me, as long as I stay by your side, everything will be fine?"

"That can't be done, the chicks will leave the old nest one day." Hong Yao said with a smile, "Think about it, no matter what Little Silver wants to do, he will do it very well."

lie!She doesn't have the talent to be a magician, and she can't even learn one ten-thousandth of Miss Hongyao's ability!Akutagawa Yin thought of the various miraculous spells he had seen in the past three months, and panic suddenly rose in his heart.

Miss Hongyao...will you always keep me by your side?In this world, she has only seen Miss Hongyao with such a magical ability.So Miss Hongyao, who can't find her kind like this, will allow herself to neutralize her loneliness?

Asking such a question now, has she already made a plan?Akutagawa Gin opened his mouth, then shut it tightly again.Frankness is sometimes a frightening quality. She is afraid that after she asks the question "is Miss Hongyao planning to leave", the other party will nod and answer with the same candid attitude as always.

Hong Yao's footsteps suddenly stopped.Akutagawa Yin didn't check for a while, almost stepped on her heels, and hurriedly took a step back: "Red——"

"Hush." ​​Hong Yao raised her finger in front of her lips, and blew out a breathy sound.Akutagawa Gin instantly calmed down, following her gaze.She thought that Hong Yao had found the trace of the curse spirit again, and she was ready to see a crowd of people coming and going as usual, but when she turned her head, she saw a sneaky man in gray robe.

This attire looked familiar, Akutagawa Gin's eyebrows twitched, and the photos that the blonde detective in the small detective agency on the streets of Tokyo had shown them flashed before his eyes.

"Mimic, the terrorist organization in post-war Europe, there is news that they have infiltrated into Japan recently, and the idiots of the Secret Service are struggling with this recently." The blond detective said.

Hong Yao just asked casually at that time: "Are you curious about them?"

"It's impossible to enter the country without being curious." Ayatsuji pedestrian replied unhappily, "And there is——"

Akutagawa Gin didn't know what kind of riddle Ayatsuji pedestrian was playing with Koyaku, but she saw Koyaku reaching out to take the photo.Standing behind Hong Yao, she saw the ghost-like gray-robed man with his back to the camera in the photo.

"Although I don't think it's possible, since you said so—" Hong Yao asked with a smile, "Is this a commission?"

"Forget it."

Mimic?

Akutagawa Gin quietly pressed on the dagger at his waist, and he raised his hand halfway before being held down by Hong Yao: "Let's go."

The gray-robed man turned his head as if feeling something, the red medicine and the silver blended into the flow of people as if nothing had happened.

Just scanning the crowd like a patrol, his gaze also made Akutagawa silver like a light on his back.By Hong Yao's side, she has also seen a few vicious guys, and few of them are so sharp and vicious.

Gin Akutagawa lowered his voice: "Is that the person Mr. Ayatsuji entrusted you to investigate?"

"It should be." Hong Yao smiled and patted her on the shoulder, "Relax, he doesn't know who we are."

Akutagawa Silver glanced at Hong Yao in admiration, relaxed his shoulders like her, and tried to act nonchalantly: "How do you plan to investigate?"

Hong Yao asked: "If it were you, where do you plan to start?"

Hearing the meaning of the school examination from these words, Akutagawa Gin frowned and pondered: "The purpose? They are Europeans, why did they come to Japan?"

Red Medicine nodded approvingly: "No action is aimless, especially in a disciplined organization. The so-called 'blindness' is just choosing a wrong way that cannot lead to the goal, and it does not mean that the purpose does not exist."

"But these people... what purpose do they have?" Akutagawa Yin recalled the various acts of terrorist organizations listed by Hongyao, and found something unreasonable in them, "The attack happened suddenly, without prior notice. Afterwards, no organization or individual came forward to claim responsibility. If it weren’t for the fact that foreigners’ faces were accidentally photographed in the news, and Mr. Ayatsuji checked the entry records... this organization would not even be found to be from overseas.”

"You have been in Yokohama for so many years, and you must have a deep understanding of the power of the port mafia. It is not just surprise and luck that they can create multiple explosions in the sphere of influence of the port mafia."

Akutagawa Gin looked at her seriously.There was something similar to reminiscence in Hong Yao's eyes, which was the imprint of the past she never mentioned.

Hong Yao never mentioned the past and future in front of her, it was like this three months ago, and it will still be like this three months later.Akutagawa Gin once felt uneasy because of this, long-term stable relationships would not be so cautious, only when they meet by chance, they need to be careful about themselves.

But seeing such red medicine, deeper anxiety and worry enveloped her instead.At this time, she seemed particularly distant, not only from her, but even from the whole world.

Silver opened his mouth, trying to call her.In the blink of an eye, Hong Yao had already restrained his expression: "Strong investigative capabilities, excellent individual qualities, well-trained, and prohibited operations-they are troops, have been on the battlefield, and have rich experience."

Akutagawa Silver didn't doubt Hong Yao's judgment, she just found it incredible: "But they—"

"But they are doing things that are completely contrary to the word 'soldier', right?" Hong Yao tapped the handle of the knife intermittently, and she didn't seem to be in a good mood, "That's what we want Check it out."

"You have been with me for three months, Little Silver?" she asked.Akutagawa Gin looked over with a feeling, and she also turned around with a smile, meeting the girl's eager expression.

There is a lot of courage in Yin, no matter how strong the opponent is or how difficult the obstacle is, she seems to have unlimited power to overcome it.This may be the endowment given to her by wandering. In the hard life of post-war slums, luck and courage are indispensable elements for a girl to survive safely.

"This is your task." She announced as Akutagawa Yin wished, "This is an in-class exam. I will not prohibit you from doing anything except confronting them head-on. After three days, tell me your purpose for them." judgment."

Akutagawa Gin became uncontrollably excited.

This is the first time Hongyao mentioned the word "school examination" to her.Just as she keenly sensed the breath of parting from the "return to Yokohama", she also sensed the opportunity to let Hong Yao keep herself from this exam.Although I still don't know the specific job of Miss Hongyao, it must be much more dangerous than chasing the curse spirit.If she wants to stay, she must show enough ability-this is the attitude that Hong Yao has never concealed.

Yin has a messy body on his body, even if there is a dangerous red medicine, he can detect it immediately.Hong Yao retreated to the corner of the street, watched her disappear in the crowd, raised her hand to hold down the foreigners passing by beside her: "Sir, kindly remind me that following a little girl in the street is a perverted behavior that needs to be called the police."

The man reacted very quickly, he raised his elbow and attacked Hong Yao's armpit, Hong Yao had to let go of the hand that was pressing on his shoulder, but the other hand was already prepared to press against the opponent's waist.

The cold light of the short knife is hidden under the big sleeve of the kimono, and the red medicine lowers his eyes: "Mimic"

The man did not speak.

Hong Yao didn't care whether the other party answered or not, she just didn't want this person to have the opportunity to follow Xiao Yin.Before confirming that they are coming for Mimic, he should not report their news.Hong Yao was thinking about how to deal with this guy - he definitely couldn't be let go, and he didn't look like he could make out words.Killing him is equivalent to directly enmity with Mimic, which is not worthwhile.

With just such a hesitation, the other party had already seized the opportunity and pulled the trigger on her without hesitation.Hong Yao quickly dodged behind him to dodge the bullet, with a flick of his wrist, the dagger pierced into his wrist, and quickly disarmed him: "Not bad?"

The other party didn't answer, his figure suddenly shook, and he pressed towards her as if he had lost support.Hong Yao had a bad idea, so he jumped a step to the side, and the man fell to the ground with a "bang", without any movement.

Hong Yao pulled out the dagger that was still stuck in his wrist, but no blood spattered out.She put her hand on the side of his neck, and could no longer feel the pulse.

... a suicide?

Whether the knife was light or heavy, she knew it herself.It is inconvenient to use spiritual arts on the street, and the opponent is obviously experienced in many battles. If he fights hard, it is impossible to escape... So he committed suicide in the end?

Hong Yao felt that she would not have any sympathy for a terrorist, but his low desire to survive still surprised her.She was dazed for a while, before she recovered from the shock of someone dying suddenly in front of her.

She thought she could get used to death long ago, but the loss of life is really not likable.Hong Yao thought about it, but his subordinates were merciless, and skillfully searched the body of the corpse, not surprisingly, they did not find any identification documents.

"This is really..." She couldn't help sighing in a low voice.At the end of the street, someone was already probing their brains. The red medicine did not stay for long, they put away their short knives, and left quickly.

Until noon, Hong Yao was still thinking about that Mimic member.Perhaps because of the battlefield, there was an aura about him that she was very familiar with.Speaking of literature and art, it is the smell of gunpowder that has not faded away. If it is more realistic, it is the smell of being trapped by the past and incompatible with today's life.

This made her care about Mimic inexplicably.

It was only when she was sitting at a table in a street restaurant that she managed to shift her attention to the menu.The boss didn't care about the absence of the only customer, and walked into the kitchen with a smile. After a while, the aroma of hot curry wafted from the kitchen.

Hongyao looked away from the convenience store across the street.A few student-age gangsters ran out of the store with their heads in their arms. The young office worker women watched them go away with a hatchet on their shoulders, and turned to talk to the boss.

"There are fights everywhere," Hong Yao muttered in a low voice, "This trip to Yokohama is at a bad time."

Sure enough, the chatty boss came over, served her curry, and asked with a smile, "Is the guest visiting Yokohama?"

"That's right. I brought my sister to play." Hong Yao sighed, and asked in a low voice like a foreign tourist, "Boss, has this place always been this chaotic? Before we came, we heard that the public security is good recently."

"Well, this period of time is exceptional..." The boss laughed twice, looking a little embarrassed.He looked at the red medicine, and persuaded the good man: "Are you two little girls coming out by yourself? Be careful. Yokohama is in chaos now, and it will probably be much better in a few days."

"...how many days?" Hong Yao showed a little disapproving expression on his face, but it was quickly restrained thoughtfully.

"That's right, my sister and I are leaving in a few days... Well, the boss's curry is not bad." She changed the subject in a calm manner.The boss didn't say any more, the snow-white sword on her waist was not concealed, and if she dared to travel in Yokohama with a sword at this time, no matter what her status was, people would not want to get in touch with her.

Probably if she didn't look too young and harmless, the boss wouldn't even let her come up with these few words.But this boss... isn't he a bit more vigilant?

Could it be a small shop she picked at random, and what else is there to hide?Hong Yao thought about it, and didn't want to cause trouble, quickly settled the lunch, and was about to leave, but the sense of crisis coming from behind made her hold the Taidao sharply, and looked back.
