It was just after noon the next day. Wu Ze was walking in a certain alley on A Mai Heng Road.The foreigners all looked bored and glanced at him from time to time.Wu Ze saw a man with a protruding chin, and remembered buying things from him, so he walked over. "Mobile phone, mobile phone." Wu Ze pretended to be making a phone call with his mobile phone. The man raised his thick eyebrows, nodded, and took out the paper with the photo of the mobile phone from his pocket. "This new product costs 5,000 yuan. It can be used for 90 days." "Can't it be cheaper? I want to buy a lot."

"A lot? How much?" "Eleven." The man's face changed slightly, and he took out another piece of paper from his pocket.Looking at the photo above, it is the same as the mobile phone that Wu Ze bought a few days ago, and it also has the logo of S company. "This one can send text messages. Seven thousand yuan. If you buy more, I will give you six thousand yuan." "No text messages this time." "SMS required." "No. The 5,000 yuan just now is enough. How about 40,000 yuan for the eleventh part?" The man hugged the two thick arms protruding from the tight T-shirt, straightened his body exaggeratedly, showing a look of incomprehension.

"Five thousand yuan, eleven parts, it is fifty-five thousand." "So it's cheaper." The bargaining continued for a while, and finally settled on a price of 4,600 yuan for a mobile phone.Wu Ze paid 50,600 yuan, and the man stretched his chin toward the deeper alley, motioning to follow him in.Just like last time, there were a few people in the alley who seemed to be from the same country as him joking, and one of them was carrying a canvas bag and handed Wu Zeshi an eleven mobile phone.Wu Ze stuffed them into the leather bag prepared in advance and left Ueno. Take the Yamanote Line to Shinjuku.After getting out of the station, I found the road name mentioned on the phone yesterday and got in. Finally, I came to a small second-floor apartment with a dilapidated appearance and a pretentious name.There is a kennel for some reason at the entrance.He walked past the kennel amidst the low barks of dogs in fear, and took a very noisy elevator up to the second floor.On the penultimate door, there was a sign of the detective agency he was looking for.

This detective firm specializing in eavesdropping was found by Lao Tie.Yesterday, Lao Tie and Wu Ze searched through the yellow pages of the phone all night, looking for a place to install a bug in the phone.I asked several detective agencies, and the answer from each place was the same, saying that it was technically impossible.Only the one that the old iron finally got through said yes, but the condition was that no matter what happened, the name of their firm could not be named.Ask them how many days it will take to install the bug, and the answer from the other party is much shorter than expected.

—Two days are enough. Although the price is high and payment must be made in advance, since there is no other place to accept the order, there is no other way. When the doorbell was pressed, there was a thin answering sound from the door, beckoning Wu Ze to come in.The boss I called last night didn't seem to be there, and the clerk sitting behind the desk at the front desk gave off the feeling of bean sprouts.He seemed to already know the content of the entrustment.Wu Ze handed over the ten telephones he bought just now, and paid in full.The remaining one has other uses. "Where are the modified telephones sent?"

"Send it here, please." Wu Ze wrote down the address of the business hotel on a sticky note and handed it to the clerk. After leaving the detective agency, Wu Ze called Lao Tie. "I'm done here. Have you found a vacant room in the building?" "Well, I've asked the agent. Room 902, which is obliquely below room 1001 of their office, is empty." "Exactly the perfect place to eavesdrop - what about leaflets and business cards?" "Yachihiro of the flyer has already made a beautiful design. The kind that can catch people at once. The name of the company and the name of the person are also prepared on the business card. Then just take it to the copy shop. .Ah, by the way, do you know the mobile phone number printed on the flyer?"

Wu Ze reported the number of a mobile phone left before to Lao Tie. "Is that the number to be printed on the leaflet?" "You said you knew a copy shop, didn't you?" "Well, that's the one. When I was a locksmith, I always asked him to print leaflets." "That deceitful flyer, the one with glue?" "Don't always talk about whether it will work or not? Anyway, it means that things here are settled, and I will go there next time. By the way, unlock the lock of 902." "Be careful—what's up with Kantaro?" "Bought all sorts of stuff and was working on those gadgets."

Speaking of which, Lao Tie's tone changed slightly. "That Kantaro, there seems to be something wrong." Lao Tie's voice was muffled, as if he was covering the microphone with his hands. "Not right?" "Seldom talk, and the eyes are very jumpy." "Did the diarrhea last night still go away?" "I thought so too, and I asked him, but it doesn't seem to be the case. I also asked Baxun carefully, but Baxun didn't say anything, just shook his head." "Could it be... maybe that's the reason. Well, he saw those guys breaking into the house with his own eyes yesterday." "Are you terrified?"

"It's possible." There is nothing I can do if I am frightened.Thinking about it carefully, what Wu Ze and the others are going to do this time has nothing to do with Kantaro.Although he is in favor of fighting, he is the only one who is not for himself.As Kantaro himself, he must have done it for his beloved Yahiro and her sister Mahiro.But in any case, for yourself and for others, the motivation is completely different.No matter how much fat Kantaro has stuffed into his body and brain, it's not impossible to be afraid. "Old Tie, can you continue to let that kid go on like this? It's okay to do something, and it's okay to take him to those guys' offices?"

The tone of Lao Tie's answer was very cautious, he must also be thinking about the same question. "Ask him again tonight." After hanging up the phone, Wu Ze sighed softly. Now is not the time to worry about others.I was already very scared. The reason why Wu Ze has been living an incognito life for more than seven years is of course that he has the intention of giving up his life, but it is more because he is afraid of being retaliated by the organization he disbanded.However, at this moment, I want to lay a bold trap for that organization. The problem is not alone here.Except for Lao Tie, the three people, Mahiro, Yahiro, and Kantaro, all only knew that they were victims of that organization.That's all for Kantaro, if the pair of sisters knew about Takezawa's past, what would they do?What would they do if they knew that Wu Ze, who lived and fought with them, was actually the direct criminal who forced their mother to death?Should I continue to hide it?Can you hide it?Wu Ze had another premonition, as if moving a matchstick would completely change the direction of the spelled dog.As long as there is a small opportunity, the worst result will come out.He and Lao Tie discussed in private that this time the battle should be done while Huokou and Tang Ren, who knew Wu Ze, were away, but this was just wishful thinking after all.During the execution of the battle, it is difficult to guarantee that the opponent will never discover Wu Ze's identity.Once discovered, Wu Ze's past will be exposed.At that time, what should I do?

Two days later in the morning, a package from the Shinjuku Detective Agency arrived at the hotel.The leaflets and business cards printed by Lao Tie from the copy shop should have been delivered.But he never came, so Wu Ze called to remind him.At this moment, the courier delivered the package to the service desk. "Ah, very good, super gorgeous." Opening the package and comparing the leaflets and business cards inside, Baxun cried out happily. "'Limited time promotion! Limited promotion! Prepaid mobile phone treatment products jump off the building and sell at a high price! One thousand yuan each! Contact number: 03-xxxx-xxxx' - the word 'disposal products' is what I thought of. Cheap goods always It takes some reason, I think. Right, old Wu, I've got a good head, don't I?" "Yes, Not Bad." Wu Ze made a perfunctory sentence and distributed the business card boxes to everyone.There are at least fifty sheets in each box, but only one or two of them will be used at most. "Not only your own name, but everyone's name must be well remembered." Next, open the box sent by the detective agency.Inside were ten cell phones and a walkie-talkie-like receiver.Lao Tie reached for the receiver. "This receiver, can you hear all the phones? Ten, all?" "I said it when I placed the order. Not only can I hear the conversation on the phone, but I can also hear the surrounding voices." Wu Ze roughly browsed through the A4-sized manual attached inside.The maximum receiving distance is about 50 meters. Because of its small size, it cannot send out strong radio waves, and the receiving range is relatively short.The battery life is also short for the same reason, but there seems to be a mechanism to ensure that the phone is also bugged when it is plugged into a charger.The instructions also said that when the phone is powered off, as long as the battery is not removed, the bug will work.In the blank space of the manual, it was written in scribbled handwriting: According to the content of the entrustment, the frequency of the radio waves emitted by the bug has been set to not interfere with each other. At the beginning of the second act of the battle, Wu Ze and the others discussed ways to eavesdrop on the opponent's office.The result is such an approach. First sell them ten prepaid cell phones that have been bugged.Some of the mobile phones might be taken to other bases, but a few of them will always be left here.Even if there is only one phone left in the office, if the frequency of the receiver is the same as that of the wiretapping device in it, the sound in the office can be tapped.Wu Ze and the others planned this way. "Let's try it first—Kantarou, take this and go outside the door. Wiretap." Lao Tie handed a mobile phone to Kantaro.But Kantaro sat cross-legged on the ground, his absent-minded eyes fell on the box containing the mobile phone, and he didn't answer. "—Kantaro?" "Ah, what?" Kantaro finally raised his head, as if he didn't realize that he was talking to himself. "Sorry, what did you say?" "Let you take this out." Lao Tie handed over the phone, Kantaro nodded expressionlessly, stood up slowly, and went out without a word.Wu Ze and Lao Tie glanced at each other, and then looked at Zhen Xun and Ba Xun.Yahiro and the others also looked worriedly at the door Kantaro had just left. "Are you all right..." Two nights ago, while eating a bowl of noodles soaked in water from an electric kettle, Takezawa asked Kantaro nonchalantly. "If you're worried, don't do it." Kantaro's disposable chopsticks stopped by his mouth, and he rolled his eyes to look at Takezawa. "Look, you have nothing to do with these people, so don't force it." Kantaro turned to the bowl of noodles, ate noodles and soup, and then ate noodles and soup again.Then without looking up, he said, "I won't quit." "But you..." "You think I'm scared, you and old iron..." Wu Ze and Lao Tie looked at each other, but neither of them spoke. "I will do it. Because it has something to do with me, I will do it. For the sake of Baxun, Zhenxun and cockscomb, I will do it!" Even so, Takezawa is still very concerned about Kantaro's state.Of course, no one can take this incident calmly, but Kantaro seems to be a little different.Although I can't tell you the specifics, it doesn't seem like I'm uneasy or afraid of this battle itself, but rather more specific——a specific thing.There is always such a feeling.Although maybe he was thinking too much, but Wu Ze couldn't think about it, and he couldn't ask directly, like a fishbone stuck in his throat.The matter of Kantaro has been stuck in Wu Ze's heart. "Your Majesty the King..." Kantaro's voice came from Lao Tie's hand, and it came from the speaker of the receiver. "Your Majesty the Queen..." "Oh, I see. It's clear." Lao Tie put his mouth next to the receiver to answer Kantaro, but this thing only looks like a walkie-talkie, not a real walkie-talkie, so it's useless to say. "We're at the end of the corridor now. Can you still hear me..." Then Kantaro's voice was a little further away. "Put the phone on the ground, and I'm a little farther away. Now it's about five meters... about ten meters... now fifteen meters... now... meters..." The sound got farther and farther away, but until about fifteen meters away, I could still clearly hear what Kantaro was saying. "Exceeded expectations, Lao Wu." An expression of excitement appeared on the side face of the old iron.
