The desperate Gongyi bit the bullet and agreed to finish the project he was in charge of.He asked a designer he knew to borrow equipment.Of course, all expenses must be paid out of pocket.Taifu and Jingna paid the money by working part-time. At the end of the work, Gong Yi lost 4 kilograms. "I will never trust anyone again." Kou said to Taifu and Shizuna with thin cheeks and a haggard face, "You are the only ones you can trust. I should have known it earlier. It is too shameful to make this field what it is today. Absolutely Won’t make the same mistake again.” "It's not brother's fault." Taifu said.

"You are a deceived person, don't be ashamed." However, there was no trace of hesitation in Gong Yijue's eyes, and his expression became more serious. "I've said it before, this world is either lying or being deceived. I'm such an idiot knowing that I'm still being deceived. I'm ashamed as a big brother to cause you trouble. It's too bad." Shizuna put her hand on Kouichi's shoulder with his head drooping. "Then, brother Gong, let's lie back." Gong Yi looked up at her, and Tai Fu looked at her too. "Do you know what you're talking about?"

"It's so strange. Why are we the only ones who have to suffer from this? Our parents were killed, we were kicked out of that house, and the surplus money after the house was sold was also taken away by relatives. It was hard for the three of us to live a good life, but we were cheated by others one after another. This is so strange. Absolutely abnormal. Brother Gong, this world is either lying or being deceived, right? Then, aren’t people who have been deceived stupid? Let’s go deceive people.” "Liar, what do you say?" Taifu asked. "The money I was cheated was also brought back by you, brother, didn't you? We didn't go very well. We just do this, find more targets, and get the money back from them."

"That's it...it's too messy. Isn't it, brother?" However, Koichi did not nod in response.With his head buried deeply, he remained motionless and remained silent. It has been a week since I found the boss of the design firm.His body was found on the Oga Peninsula in Akita Prefecture, where he committed suicide by jumping off a building. He invested in a newly established IT company.After opening, the whereabouts of the person who invited him to become the head of the design department disappeared, leaving him with a huge loan and a sense of despair like a bottomless pit.Last time he ran away without hesitation, but this time he lost the confidence to live, left a suicide note, and decided to kill himself.

Perhaps this played a decisive role.Not long after, Kouichi said as if to declare. "Let's lie back. Absolutely no more tears." Shizuna clenched her fists, Taisuke nodded slightly.Since Gong Yi said so, it must be their best choice. "Our biggest weapon is Jing Nai's beauty. If we don't take advantage of it, we have no capital. There are too many rich people in this world who covet beautiful women, so we aim at them. It's one of the rules not to target the poor." Gong Yi Say. There was no special discussion, and the division of labor was decided unconsciously.Koichi is responsible for the investigation and planning, and Taisuke and Shiina are responsible for the implementation.The approximate sequence is that Jing Nai first deceived the man, and then Taifu appeared when he defrauded the money.

The "new career" of the three brothers and sisters is progressing quite smoothly.Jing Nai not only has a beautiful face, but also knows how to win a man's heart.After a few moments of conversation, she can play the type that the other party likes almost flawlessly. On the other hand, both Koichi and Shizuna said that Taisuke is "a genius of imitation".Insurance salesman, bank clerk, fortune teller, baseball player, cowherd, no matter what kind of profession he can cross-dress.And every time you change clothes, you have a good look, and you won't make people think otherwise.

"If you were an actor, you might have gone to Hollywood by now." Jing Nai once said so. Taifu himself didn't know too well, he just didn't want to hold back and acted seriously.However, he enjoyed this "job" quite a lot and found the value of life from it.As soon as he thought about what kind of role he would play next time, he couldn't restrain the excitement in his heart.Research for cross-dressing is also fun.Although he has worked in various jobs so far, this is the first time he has tasted such a sense of fulfillment. After finishing the curry, Gong Yi took out a document.

"Stop putting on airs, tell us quickly." Jing Nai complained with her lips pouted. "The next target is him." Gong put the document on the glass table. Attached to this document was a photo of a man in his thirties with a slender jaw standing gracefully. "Compared to the previous prey, the standard is much higher." Jing Nai said. "His name is Hushen Xingcheng, the son of the restaurant." "Let this guy buy ten million gems?" Taifu asked. "Yes." Koichi nodded briskly, "Be sure to let him buy it. Then Jing Nai received this gem from him as a gift."

Jing Nai licked her lips with her tongue and gave a thumbs up: "Full of fighting spirit!" Like a salesman at a travel agency, Takeo Kawano spread a stack of travel brochures on the table.There is also a sorted note next to it, with a bunch of numbers copied on it. "After researching, Hakone is better. Considering the convenience of transportation, I feel that the three hotels are not bad, the level is similar, the food is good, and the cost is not much different. The overall comparison is like this." Said, Kawano took the notes Turned in Shiina's direction. It records all kinds of expenses when staying in these three hotels.Originally, the travel expenses were all paid by Kawano, so there was no need to show Shizuna these things, presumably he was implying "I spent so much money for you".It's because of your virtue that you can't get a girlfriend, Jing Nai cursed secretly.

Of course, she didn't show these sincere words on her face. "They all look good," she said to Kawano with a smile, "You decide." "Well, no problem. Then again, you haven't asked for leave yet?" Instantly, his face darkened. "It's obviously a weekend..." Shiina shook her head. "People who run business don't have weekends. Think about it, the only time we can have a good conversation with customers who have jobs is weekends, and the other party usually has to work." "...Is that so." Kawano still looked uncomfortable.

The increasingly thinning hair, the increasingly flabby cheeks, and the gradually rounding abdomen-no matter how you look at it, it is not the appearance that a 35-year-old should have.According to Gongyi's investigation report, he majored in chemistry at university and once worked in a pharmaceutical company, but he resigned after half a year because he couldn't fit in.Now, he has a social life as a science teacher, but he's also not very nice at school, and the students agree that he's a weirdo. He wasn't really a weirdo, he was just plain unsociable.He is also eager to get married and start a family.But even though he signed up for blind dates online, he couldn't muster up the courage to strike up a conversation with a woman.When Jing Nai took the initiative to approach him, his voice became high-pitched, his eyes were like a timid puppy. To Shizuna, capturing such a man is like pinching an snail with three fingers.Since the party, he has been sending text messages to Jing Nai every day.So far, they have eaten three meals together and watched a movie together.These are enough for Kawano to get carried away, he looks like Shizuna's boyfriend. Just when he was about to cheat money, Kawano invited Shizuna to travel to the hot springs together.It is a bit shocking that he, who is not good at communicating with the opposite sex, actually made such a request.Soon, Jing Nai smelled a clue in the chat with him.He often haunts the BBS, where he can easily talk about difficult things with acquaintances and find someone to discuss.Presumably someone on the BBS suggested that if he wanted to develop further with his girlfriend, he might as well take her to a hot spring trip.I really don't know which troublesome guy it is.Jing Nai thought angrily. The two were sitting in a cafe on the second floor of a large bookstore near Ikebukuro Station.Shizuna drank black tea and looked out the window. Standing at the entrance of the convenience store was a man in a plaid shirt, with long hair, black-rimmed glasses, and a paper bag in his hand.At first glance, Shizuna almost didn't spit out.If this dress was in Akihabara, it would be difficult to recognize it at a glance if it would be submerged in the crowd. She reached under the table, found the mobile phone in her bag and pressed it a few times, as long as she used her hand, it was enough. Jing Nai observed the reaction of the man at the door of the convenience store, and saw that he took out his cell phone from his pocket, checked it and cut off the call.The signal was sent successfully. "So, when can Yukari (yukari) rest?" Kawano asked. "this……" Shizuna tilted her head and thought about how to write the Chinese characters for "ユカリ (yukari)", what about Yukari?Or by Gary?After introducing herself, she never used Chinese characters, and always used "ユカリ (yukari)" every time she wrote a text message. "After completing the indicators, you should be able to do other things." "Indicators? So strict." "Yes," Jing Nai nodded, "If you can't get the insurance policy, the company has no reason to hire you. As long as the performance is slightly worse, the salary will directly reflect it." Well, Kawano replied with a look of incomprehension.He always seems awkward when it comes to company and business topics, maybe subconsciously he knows that he is a deserter.The students taught by such a person are too pitiful, Jing Nai thought. "I'll be insured too." Kawano scratched his thinning hair, muttering to himself. It's good to know, Jing Nai maintained a smile and resisted blurting out. "I don't want to cause trouble for Mr. Takeo, you still have to bear the travel expenses." "That's right, I don't know how much savings I will have left after I come back. If there is any extra by then, I think I can help a little." What are you talking about?Jing Nai complained impatiently.The cost of the trip can be approximated by looking at your notes—— Kawano, who has never been extravagant and wasteful, has nearly 10 million deposits. At the same time, this also reflects that he is an out-and-out iron cock.At first, he thought that he didn't take out the insurance immediately because he was still wary of Jing Nai, but recently he finally realized that he just didn't like letting the money leave his hands. Kawano looked behind Shizuna, and she felt someone approaching behind her. Soon, a man came to their table. He was the man standing at the door of the convenience store just now. "That's right." He sized up Shizuna and said with a smile, "It's Yukari (yukari)." Ah, Shizuna shouted, "Yamada (Yamada)-san..." "I recognized you from the back, at work?" He smiled and compared Kawano and Shizuna. "Ah, that's not the case..." "Huh? It's almost the end of the month. I thought you were still busy completing the target. Did you meet the target?" "Well, barely." "That," Kawano interjected. "your friend?" "No, not friends..." "I'm Yukari's savior, right?" The man replied, asking for her approval. "Ah, that, Mr. Yamada (Yamada), we still have important things to say, I'm really sorry, let's talk slowly next time..." "Hey, that's it. Then, if you have any troubles, please come to me as soon as possible, sure." "Well, thank you." "I had a lot of fun at the amusement park last time, let's go together next time." "Well, definitely." The long-haired man grinned and left.Kawano, eager to know the details, asked anxiously: "Who is that person?" "Senior in high school. I ran into him on the road a while ago. He knew that I was an insurance company, and I was struggling with indicators, so he took out the insurance." "Hey," Kawano said a little hurt, "Go to the amusement park together?" "I asked him what he wanted in return, and he asked me to accompany him to the amusement park. But, only once." "Although it's impolite to say so, he's really an annoying guy. He's an otaku." "What are you? I don't know him very well, I only know that he is quite rich. So, when I was cornered by indicators, I asked him for help." "Looking for such a man?" Kawano suddenly looked angry, "Please take care of this bastard otaku!" "I can't wait to burn my eyebrows, and I have no other choice." Jing Nai said coldly, sipping her black tea. Kawano reached out to pick up the coffee cup, and the coffee cup made a clicking sound when it touched the plate. It was obvious that he was in a state of anxiety. "I don't agree. It's too weird to get a policy on a date." "It's not a date, just went to an amusement park together." "But he seems to regard you as a lover." "That's not the case." "Anyway, I hate it when you do this. Please don't do it again." "So I also..." Jing Nai lowered her head. Kawano put down the glass rudely. "How much worse?" "What?" She looked up. "Metrics. How close is it to finish?" Looking at him who was dazed, Jing Nai couldn't help but want to lick her lips.She tried her best to suppress the impatience and spoke cautiously.
