Chapter 20 19

After three o'clock in the afternoon, Shinsuke got on his bicycle and went out to eat.He rode over to eat a belated lunch at a tendon shop he frequented at the Monzen-Nakamachi family.It was the first time for him to come to this store alone, because he always went with Chengmei before. After leaving the Tendonya, a thought flashed through his mind, and he put his hands in the side pockets of his chinos.Hold something with both hands.As soon as he pulled out his hand, he grabbed the phone with both hands.The left hand is black and the right hand is silver.He put the silver back in his pocket.

The black phone is Shinsuke's.He wanted to use this mobile phone to try to dial Chengmei's number, but he guessed that 99% of the calls would not be connected. He hit it off.What I heard was a voicemail message as usual, indicating that the other party is currently in a place where I cannot answer, or that the other party has turned off the power of the mobile phone.Shinsuke hung up the phone immediately, and then deleted Chengmei's phone number recorded in the phone on the spot. Shinsuke felt a little lonely, but that was all.After he made up his mind about this matter, he also felt happy in his heart, and decided not to think about Chengmei in the future.

Then Shinsuke put the black phone into his trouser pocket, and took out the silver phone from the right trouser pocket.Of course it wasn't his phone. This mobile phone was left by a woman who called herself Ruriko a few days ago.Shinsuke brought her cell phone back that night and waited for it to ring until dawn.He didn't think that Rulizi accidentally forgot to take it away, but explained that she left her contact information. However, he has passed several days since that day, but the mobile phone has never rang, and she herself has not gone to the store.But Shinsuke still believes that the phone is the only way to keep in touch with her, so he went to the convenience store yesterday to buy a charger so that the phone can keep talking at any time.If the phone battery dies, it cuts off hard-won contacts.

When Shinsuke recalled what happened that night, his lower body still feels pain, and he almost got an erection again.Shinsuke couldn't help falling into fantasy, imagining that she was feeding him the cocktail he drank mouth to mouth, the taste spread in the mouth, and the body gradually became hot.Ruriko's soft lips, smooth skin, and the pleasure of entering her body, these memories are deeply engraved into Shinsuke's body like a seal. Shinsuke wants to see Ruriko.He was eagerly looking forward to it, but there was no other way. The mobile phone she left behind only recorded a set of phone numbers.But even if I dialed this number, I don't know if I can find her.

Shinsuke operated the phone to find out the group of numbers, then pressed the dial button, and put the phone close to his ear.His heart beat violently. The bell rang, the third time, four times, and halfway through the fifth time, it seemed to be connected. "Hello... I'm sorry to have called you, I can't answer right now. Please leave your name, contact details and phone number after the beep and I'll call you back." Shinsuke cut off the call before hearing the beep. This is not the first time he has heard the answer to this voicemail.As soon as he knew the set of phone numbers recorded in the mobile phone, he dialed it immediately.After that, no matter how many times you call, it will always be redirected to the answering message of this voicemail.

In fact, when Shinsuke called for the second time, he left a message: "I am Umura from 'Minghe', please contact me." Although I don't know if she can remember the surname "Umura", as soon as she hears "Minghe" You should know who it is. The question is whether Ruriko listened to his message or not.Because the voicemail answer that Shinsuke heard did not seem to be Ruriko's voice.Shinsuke is quite confident in his hearing, if it is the same person, he will definitely hear it. The recorded phone number is presumably that of another person.If this is the case, the owner of the phone number should feel scared when he receives a message from a strange man.Thinking about it this way, he hasn't left a message since the third call.

But why is there always no one answering—— This thing is also incredible.For Shinsuke, it doesn't matter if the person who answers the phone is not Ruriko.Because of the number recorded on that mobile phone, the owner of the number must know Ruriko.Although it will make the other party more or less suspicious, but if you make up any reason, you should be able to ask Ruriko's contact information. However, if the other party does not answer the phone, Shinsuke is helpless. Shinsuke put the phone back in his trouser pocket, got on the bicycle, and stepped on the pedal towards the building where he lived.

When he was riding a bicycle, he suddenly remembered something.So even though he was already approaching his residence, he didn't slow down the speed of his bicycle and just kept going straight.A short time later, he arrived at Kasai Bridge Road, where traffic lights turned red.It was the first time he braked to a stop. He took out his wallet while waiting for the traffic light, and there was a note in the wallet. Kiuchi Haruhiko Chuo-ku Nihombashi Hamamachi 2—×Garden Palace505 This is what Ejima wrote on a note paper when he told Shinsuke Haruhiko Kiuchi's contact information a few days ago.

He didn't intend to meet Kiuchi.It was purely on a whim to see where Kiuchi lived.The same goes for the place where Kishinaka lives. When Shinsuke is interested in someone, he wants to visit that person's place.This may be a quirk, he always feels that seeing the other person's residence, he should be able to understand what kind of person the other person is, of course, this is just his own "feeling". When Shinsuke found out that the accident involved two cars, there was one thing that surprised him.Why did Kishi and Rei only attack him?If he wants to avenge his wife, he should also take revenge on Kiuchi.Does Kishizhong think that he is the direct perpetrator of the car accident, so he should take full responsibility?

In addition, he cared a lot about what Otsuka said.Kotsuka said that Kiuchi was "weird", what was going on? After the traffic signal turned green, he rode his bicycle again, crossed the Kasai bridge road, and headed straight north.Although he passed through several traffic lights, even if it was a red light, he went straight through. Fortunately, there was no car rushing over. Turn left on Qingzhou Bridge Road and head west.Cross the Kiyosu Bridge, and then cross the Shin Ohashi Road, and you will be Nihonbashi Hamamachi 2-chome. The Garden Palace is built directly in front of Hamamachi Park. The whole building is almost seven stories high. The exterior wall of this building has a metallic texture, and the Meijiza Theater on the opposite side can be seen across the Hamamachi Park.

Shinsuke parked his bicycle on the road and walked into the building.After entering, the administrator's room is on the right, and there is an automatic glass door on the left.Opposite the glass door is a porch that can be mistaken for a hotel lobby. There was a white-haired man in a uniform in the administrator's room. He lowered his head and was writing something, but he raised his head because he felt someone's gaze staring at him. Shinsuke walked in with a nonchalant attitude.Entering the building, I saw mailboxes lined up in a certain corner, and the location happened to be a blind spot that couldn't be seen around. He found mailbox number 505.There is no name tag on the mailbox. Shinsuke sneaked his fingers into the delivery port.Today's morning paper has not been picked up yet, the mail is placed on the morning paper, and it seems that I can get it with a little hand. After confirming that no one saw it, he inserted his finger deeply into the delivery port.When his fingertips touched the mail, he clamped it between his index and middle fingers, and carefully pulled out the mail. The harvest is two letters in white envelopes and three postcards.Shinsuke hastily read all the postcards, all postcards are DMs.But the content is astounding.They were all from high-end men's clothing stores or accessories stores, and there were postcards that wouldn't arrive in Shinsuke's mailbox. Shinsuke couldn't help being surprised when he saw the sender column of the two envelopes.The names of the well-known clubs in Ginza are written on the two letters, and they are super high-end clubs that everyone who works in Ginza must know. Inside was probably a payment note.Since it was sent to my own house, most of them went there not to entertain guests.Shinsuke tried to peek at the contents of the letter through the light, but he still couldn't see anything. so, what happened?Ejima said that Kiuchi Haruhiko was just a small employee.In this recessionary era, it is unimaginable that ordinary office workers can shop in high-end stores and go in and out of high-end clubs.Of course, there are everyone in this world.It would be too rash to conclude that the other party's financial situation is not good just because the other party is an office worker.However, Haruhiko Kiuchi was involved in the fatal car accident more than a year ago.According to common sense, his position in the company should not be good. Since the administrator might get suspicious if he stayed here for too long, Shinsuke put the mail back where it was and walked back to the entrance.The door of the administrator's room was open, and the administrator just came out.This white-haired man was holding a broom and dustpan in his hands. He glanced at Shinsuke, probably misunderstood Shinsuke's identity, and said "Thank you". In the evening, Shinsuke made a phone call to his former colleague Yoshiyuki Okabe from "Sirius". "It's really rare." Okabe said in surprise after knowing that it was Shinsuke who called. "I have something to ask you." After Shinsuke finished speaking, he suddenly fell silent.Okabe was clearly wary.He has been a taciturn, observant man with a keen sixth sense since before. "If it's a difficult matter, please spare me!" Okabe said.It is also a characteristic of this man that he will clearly say what he hates. "Sorry, it might be really tricky." Shinsuke said honestly. Okabe sighed on the other end of the phone. "Anyway, let me listen first, what's the matter?" "You said before that you knew someone who worked at 'Water Mirror'." "'Water mirror'? Ah, yes there is..." "Shuijing" is one of the two stores that sent payment notices to Haruhiko Kiuchi. "Remember you said he was the man in charge of the stage work?" "Yes, what's the matter?" "Can you introduce that person to me?" Okabe remained silent again.This time the silence was longer than before. After a while, Okabe said in a low voice. "What conspiracy do you have?" "How can I have any conspiracy?" Shinsuke said with a smile in his voice. "No, you are very strange recently. Not only did you ask Ms. Yuka some strange questions, but you also made things difficult for Mr. Ejima." It seems that Okabe, who works at the bar, has a panoramic view of Shinsuke's various snooping behaviors in "Sirius".He was indeed a shrewd man. "There's a reason for that," Shinsuke said. "I think you've heard it from Mr. Ejima. Since that incident, the memory in my brain is a bit strange. I want to figure it out on my own, so I'm going around asking different people about things." "I know this, and I also understand your thoughts. But Mr. Jiang Dao told me to ignore you. Now your mental state is not stable, so I can't provoke you casually." "If this continues, the mental state will not be stable for the rest of my life. Hey, please. Help me." Okabe closed his mouth again, but not completely silent, his low moan came over the phone. "Why do you want me to introduce the waiter of 'Mizukage' to you?" Okabe asked. "I want to inquire about a certain customer who frequents that store." Okabe let out a heavy breath. "Yamura, you also know it. People who make a living in bars should not leak information about customers at will, even if they are in the same industry." "So I can only ask you a thousand times. As long as you introduce me, I will explain it to that person and won't cause you any trouble." "Is it possible? Just look at the recent ones and you will know that you will definitely piss off the other party, absolutely." "No problem, I promise." "Such words are unreliable." Okabe declared clearly. This time it was Shinsuke's turn to fall silent.He wondered how he could convince Okabe. "Hi!" he said, "please." "Don't force me any more." "I used to push myself too hard for you." This sentence seems to have no small effect.Okabe was at a loss for words. Okabe also understood what Shinsuke was referring to.A few years ago, Okabe took on a large debt. In order to repay the debt, he stole and sold the wine purchased by "Sirius". Only Shinsuke found out about it.In order to keep this matter from being exposed, Shinsuke assisted him in falsifying the valuation and account books, and persuaded Okabe to discuss the debt with Ejima.As a result, the Okabe usury debt was settled, and the piracy was not exposed. "Are you threatening me?" "No." Shinsuke immediately denied. "I don't want to dig out those old things. I just hope you can understand that I really worked hard." Okabe groaned again. "I see." He gave up. "I'll give it a try." "Excuse me." "It's just that I refuse to introduce for you. I will ask for you, so that you will be less suspicious, okay?" "Okay, that's the only way to do it." It was no longer possible to force Okabe any longer. Shinsuke said that he wanted to know Haruhiko Kiuchi as a customer, which company he worked for, what position he held, who he usually went to the store with, and how he looked strange recently.As long as you can ask about anything related to Kiuchi, anything is fine. Okabe said that although he was reluctant, he would still try hard, and then hung up the phone. That night, Okabe called Shinsuke back.Saturday is also the rest day of "Water Mirror", so it is easier to catch it. "Kiuchi's guest does often go to the 'Mizukage', usually two or three times a week, usually once a week." Okabe's tone was softer than before, and Shinsuke felt incredible about it.Okabe continued. "To be honest, when I asked him if he knew Kiuchi as a customer, I didn't expect him to tell me a lot of things easily. It seems that the person named Kiuchi is quite a strange customer. There are several shops in Ginza. Famous." "Is it a weirdo?" "That's not what it means. His true face is unknown, let's talk about the known part first. First of all, the company he works for is Emperor Capital Construction, and his position is unknown. He is about 30 years old, so he should be an ordinary employee. Most of them go alone Drinking, but occasionally I will bring friends there, and Kiuchi pays the bill at this time." "So he's not going to entertain guests." "That's right. It's not uncommon for bills to exceed two hundred thousand a night." "Where did the money come from?" "Didu Construction is not a big company. No matter how good the salary is, it's not easy to spend 200,000 yuan a night? However, he has never paid the bill late. So for the hotel, he can be said to be a distinguished guest." Shinsuke thought it was natural, if there were such guests visiting "Myoga", mother Sang Chitsuko would probably cry with joy. "However, I heard that they were also mixed. When the customer named Kiuchi came, the senior officials of the Imperial Capital Construction who were regular customers before disappeared all of a sudden, causing a big loss in the store." "Is it because they don't want to drink in a store where the general staff also go?" "The store can only explain it in this way, but no one seems to accept it." "Hmm." Shinsuke felt more and more strange the more he heard it. "When did Kiuchi go to 'Shui Jing'?" "I heard it was about half a year ago." After all, it has been more than a year since the accident.Even so, can the person who caused the fatal car accident have the means to spend his days and nights like this? "Did he himself mention the reason why he can spend so much?" "This part doesn't seem to be mentioned. Several times the hotel lady jokingly asked him where he got the money to spend a lot of money, but I heard that he was very unhappy and said: 'This has nothing to do with you.'" Shinsuke let out a whimper not knowing what to say.He had absolutely no idea what was going on. "That's all I asked. Let me be clear with you, because Kiuchi is a very special guest, so the other party told me it as a joke. Don't ask me to do the same thing again." Okabe said.At this time, it sounds like he is a little angry from the voice.
