"Is Junping? That's great, can you come over? It's urgent! If you don't have any urgent matters to kill someone, come right away and meet you at the old place 'Mickey' Tea House. - Oh! I am pretense." Before he could answer, the other party had hung up the phone. Junping hastily kicked off the thin and small quilt and got up. It was only because I had nothing to do that at this time, it was almost four o'clock in the afternoon, I was still lying on the bed and sleeping.Since there is no fatal illness, I have no choice but to go to the appointment! He put on his frayed brown sports jacket and sprinted out the door.Passed by the administrator in the hallway.

"Mr. Tian Ze, where are you going?" The administrator was a bit cocky. "Something!" After a perfunctory answer, Junping ran down the stairs in three steps and two steps. ——Going to meet with Namiko.If you answer him like this, the administrator will definitely not believe it. Bo Muzhuangzi, twenty-five years old.She is a top model in the Japanese fashion industry.From time to time, there are rumors about celebrities such as actors, painters, and baseball players.Although her figure is slender and thin, it contains soft and beautiful curves. Even Junping himself couldn't believe it.The first time I heard her delicate girlish voice was on the TV screen two months ago.

It has been three years since Junping graduated from University, and he has been living a wandering life without a fixed job. Two months ago, he agreed to a friend who is a photographer: "Can I hire you as a bodyguard?" son.The pretense that often appears in newspapers and magazines and other media was trapped by threatening phone calls.Because he practiced karate in college, Junping is qualified to be her bodyguard. "If a person of your skill walks into the hotel with a pretense, you don't have to worry about people from the magazine coming to harass you!" The friend said while looking at Junping with round eyes and wearing bald donkey glasses.

The prank phone call had already been resolved by first meeting Pretender, but he was hired anyway.It seemed that he was pretending to like Jun Ping who immediately blushed after glancing at her. "You are the first person who won't show a flattering smile when I meet you!" Although they are employed by her, their interactions with each other are only her occasional phone calls, meals and drinks together, and talks for two or three hours.Living in a pile of money, changing clothes in one day is equivalent to a year's living expenses of a military average, and traveling to New York as frequently as walking. Hole shoes and a shabby military uniform can make her feel relaxed and happy.

I don't know whether Junping is incomprehensible or demented, but he is very clumsy and reserved like a scarecrow in the field.I always look at the pretender who is close by with a posture of looking into the distance.No, he wasn't looking at her, but mostly looking away because he felt he was insulting her beauty just by looking at her.The moment they met for the first time, a spark of love burst out in Junping's heart.It's like the poignant and short-lived love story of being obsessed with the beautiful woman in the driver's seat just before being crushed to death.Every time I receive a call from Zhuangzi, I always think about not seeing each other again, but I still run away involuntarily.The only reason that could explain this behavior was that the two had signed a three-month contract, and the remuneration had been paid in advance, so it was an obligation to attend the appointment.

He jumped on the motorcycle placed in the innermost part of the apartment, started the engine, and drove out majesticly—in fact, majestic was only a matter of will, it was just a broken car with peeling paint and panting before starting. Fifteen minutes later, Junping arrived at the "Mickey" tea house, which is full of fairy tale flavor in Disneyland.He cautiously peeked inside through the crack of the door with the sign "In preparation". Sitting at the counter, the boss who was reading books and newspapers suddenly raised his head. "The prince is here, but the dance doesn't start until five o'clock, and the business doesn't start until then."

Pretend to always meet here, so Junping is already familiar with this boss who has a beard like the captain of a pirate ship.I heard that she worked as a waitress here before she was discovered.The boss loves pretending very much. When she patronizes, he closes the business and does not allow customers to enter. Pretend to sit in the innermost seat.Every time Jun Ping saw her wearing this yellow rose-like evening dress, he always felt inexplicably sad. "Mr. Junping, your first job is here, save me!" After Jun Ping solemnly sat down with his knees together, he pretended to be friendly and said without saying a word: "Do you believe it? Now I am a murder suspect."

The smile on the face of the pretender seemed to be reporting good news, Junping was taken aback: "Killed? What is it?" "You know about the murder of the famous model Baidu Sally three days ago? This news is very sensational!" As she spoke, she took out the newspaper clippings. ——Popular model Sally Baito was strangled to death in her own house in Hamamatsucho—— Junping still vaguely remembered the headline. "Why are you involved?" "Sally and I have been rivals since we emerged, and we have become household names for the throne. This spring, there were rumors in the clothing industry that Sally was poached by the fashion royal family Mark Caden. In fact, her official contract seems to be coming soon. It's over, Sally is rumored to be heading to Paris next week. Possibly a model for Mark thereafter, which is the crowning achievement of modeling. I'm killing her because I'm jealous of her success. Can you believe it? It's such a simple speculation .”

"No one will believe it!" The boss expressed Junping's feeling. "But the police think so. And what's worse, the night before she was killed, I beat her at the banquet. Because she kept saying: 'Do you envy me?' and kept mentioning it in my speech. The name of Mark Caden. I just hate to admit that people like Sally are on the same level as me, so I always answer her provocation with a calm smile, but..." Pretend to smile as if remembering the scene at that time.It's hard to believe that there are policemen who don't believe in such a beautiful smile.

"So, how to wash away the suspicion?" "There is another important suspect. His suspicion is relatively minor, just because I don't have an alibi, but he does. I want to smash his alibi. He is Lici..." "Rituji? Is it a well cracking Rici?" I was surprised. Reiji Isu is the most fascinated new fashion designer in the world fashion industry and young Japanese women today.With the three advantages of youth, talent, and beauty, he is very popular in mass communication.Every time he holds a fashion show on a helicopter, in the desert, on the Champs Elysees Avenue, on the Nanyang sea, etc., it becomes a topic of mass media reports.He was originally famous in Paris, the birthplace of clothing, and attacked the Japanese market two years ago.The business has even developed into the sales of mass clothing, and has become a business owner with chain stores in major cities in Japan in a short period of time.

"There is also a motive to kill her in this slit ceremony?" "You don't know about the relationship between Reiji and Sally? The matter between the two of them will be very popular in the women's weekly magazine!" "It's also published here!" The boss spread out the weekly magazine he was reading for him. "Mark Caden's seventy-year-old charm, which made Sally lose his manners—Onassis pales in comparison!" The magazine published pictures of Reiji and Baidu Sally smiling with their cheeks pressed against each other.Junping, who has no interest in women's weekly magazines, doesn't know anything about their relationship, but he knows that Sally, who was killed, became Reiji's exclusive model two years ago, and the two entered into a marriage contract last Christmas.This photo was taken at the time of the engagement, and in April this year, it seems that Sally has unilaterally reneged on this engagement.The reason stems from the poaching by Mark Caden that Zhuangzi just mentioned. "This weekly magazine will also publish that it is only a matter of time before Sally will ascend to the throne of Mrs. Mark Caden, who has been single and unmarried until now. And this is the most unforgivable betrayal behavior for Reiji. She has an arrogant personality. The hero's Riji will certainly not ignore this greatest humiliation. I just beat her, if it was Rici, he would not let it go so easily! Thinking, the murderer must be Rici. From the point of view of motive, the police are more suspicious he." "It's just that he has an alibi." "Yes, Reiji was in Osaka at the time of the murder—because of the two-minute gap, it cannot be confirmed that he was able to go back and forth between Tokyo and Osaka to kill and rush to the fashion show." "Two minutes—only two minutes?" "Thinking! That's why I feel puzzled. Those two minutes can be said to be the key. I don't know the ins and outs of the matter very well, so I want to investigate with you." "How should I proceed?" Pretending not to answer immediately, he stared at Junping without blinking, and suddenly said: "I haven't eaten since yesterday." "I feel hungry when I see Mr. Junpei. Boss, help me buy noodles from the ramen shop I often go to. Mr. Junpei also eat some? Oh, then only buy one serving!" Junping was thinking: Am I this beauty's appetite enhancer?While watching the boss reach over the counter to dial. Junping, who looked at the boss's finger movements as if nothing had happened, widened his eyes in surprise. What surprised Junping was that after a while, the siren of a patrol car suddenly came from the street. At the same time, with a bang, the owner of the ramen shop rushed into the house. "I kept you waiting for a long time!" The boss was sweating profusely and panting. "What's going on?" Pretend asked Junping, who was staring blankly at the owner of the ramen shop. "Nothing." Junping withdrew his surprised expression. "Oh! Then, Mr. Gunpei! While I'm eating ramen, you change out of this outfit, and the shoes and belt are all ready inside." Baozi handed over the big paper bag in her hand, and Junping took out a set of pure white evening dress from the bag. "Where are you going?" "Participate in the banquet. Reiji will hold a fashion show called 'Black Romantic' at the National Stadium tomorrow night. The first shot of this show has already been held at the Nishiki Stadium in Osaka on the day of the murder. Then Something to do with his alibi - the show's second shot will begin tomorrow night in Korakuen. Tonight's banquet is a celebration of it. Witnesses for the ceremony and his alibi will be gathered at At the banquet. The two of us should go too! I will have a relationship with Reiji when he first debuted, so I know some things about him very well." Junping complied with his employer's orders and changed into the evening dress in the corner seating.When he put on his shiny jet-black leather shoes, he pretended to have finished his ramen too. The top fits well but the trousers are too long. "I imagined Mr. Junping's feet to be a bit longer——Okay! Let's do it like this, lend me the scissors!" Pretender took the scissors from the boss and said, "Don't move!" He bent over and started cutting towards the hem of his military trousers. The heel of the shoe was exposed, and the crotch was too short again. "I don't know whether Mr. Junping's feet are long or short! There is no other way, just be patient like this!" "But..." Jun Ping stared blankly at the funny trousers. Not only is it too short, but the cutting is irregular like sawtooth. "You feel embarrassed?" "Well, it's a little..." "That's it! Then..." After finishing speaking, the pretender began to cut the hem of the evening dress on her body without mercy.The slender and beautiful feet are exposed, and the cuts are also irregularly jagged. "In this way, the two of us are the same, right?" Pretending to say with a smile.
