crow's thumb 道尾秀介 16242Words 2018-03-15
Before sunset the next day. Wu Ze, Lao Tie, Kantaro, and Yahiro put on work clothes and the same hat, and stood by in Room 902.The overalls were a dusty gray color, the kind you see everywhere, as were the hats.Although Mahiro was also wearing the same outfit, she was not in the room, but was eavesdropping in the corridor outside, waiting for the woman in the room directly above to go out. Turn on the receiver and check the status of Room 1001.The burner and the organizer seemed to have gone out as agreed the day before, and were not in the office.Only Nogami and three other men were in the office.Two young ones and one who seemed to be aged and hoarse.

All the cash targeted was kept in the firm's safe.Whether the safe is a dial type or a lock cylinder type, there is no way to know until I see it with my own eyes.However, the countermeasures were fully considered yesterday. "Then it's time to wait and act." Wu Ze nodded silently to Lao Tie's words.Yahiro has been smoking one cigarette after another since the beginning, and Kantaro is sweating profusely, staring at the ground, taking deep breaths from time to time.Is this guy really all right? Through the gaps between the newspapers pasted on the windows, the thin sunset rays shone in.

"The woman above is out." Everyone in Wu Ze stood up together.The old man clapped his hands. "Okay, let's get started——Mahiro, don't forget the tools. Yahiro is ready for that. Kantaro and Takeshi bring their business cards." Wu Ze touched the business card in his breast pocket.On the business card is a large company name printed in blue and red, with black text below it, and the words "Tateyama Tai" are written in Ming Dynasty script.This is the name given by Lao Tie. The surname is the initials of Wu Ze, Lao Tie, Ba Xun, and Zhen Xun. The name seems to have borrowed Kantaro.Lao Tie's own name is "Ingot Akio", and Kantaro is "Kobayashi Kanjiro".Only men have business cards.Because the old iron thinks it is more realistic.The male trio are regular employees, while the young females are contract workers.When asked, it is true that this is more like the usual situation of small companies, but maybe it is actually because the old iron can't think of a good name.

"Let's go." Wu Ze took the lead, and several people wearing the same overalls and hats filed out.Enter the elevator and go up to the tenth floor.No one in the elevator car spoke.Finally the door opened, and Wu Ze was the first to step out and walk towards the corridor—but at this moment, his right foot hit the door that was not fully opened.The thin material of the deck shoes almost completely transmitted the impact to the little toe, Wu Ze couldn't help opening his mouth in pain, and quickly covered his mouth with both hands. "...Are you okay?" Lao Tie stared at Wu Ze's face, Wu Ze nodded while enduring the pain.

"fine." Wu Ze walked in the front, and all the staff lined up and advanced along the corridor.It was getting late, and the corridor was getting darker and darker, making Wu Ze feel like the wet throat of a monster.My group is now moving inside.I am not an idiot.I am not an idiot.I'm not an idiot - Wu Ze said in his heart over and over again. Kantaro followed closely behind Wu Ze, feeling as if he had swallowed an ice cube, a chill was rising from the bottom of his lower abdomen. no.no.no.Every step I take, the voice in my head is calling. --no. I can not do it. --no. I can't do that kind of thing.Why not refuse?Why don't you say I can't?

It's ugly to see Wu Ze, who is leading the way.Stealth a glance behind. —It's too late to confess now. "Calm down, Kantaro." Lao Tie patted him lightly on the back. "Don't worry. Such a well-planned battle will surely succeed." Wrong - Kantaro cried in his heart.it's not like that.However, there is no way to say this.Kantaro could only move forward in silence, moving forward indifferently, as if borrowing two legs from others to walk.The target room 1001 was getting closer...closer...finally, everyone stopped. Wu Ze, the leader, pressed the doorbell.There were several men's voices faintly heard from inside.The voice I just heard on the radio in Room 902 is so close at this moment.

The door opened, revealing a puzzled face.That's the guy who went to Wu Ze's residence a few days ago and smashed the entrance door with a golf club. "What's the matter with you?" This person seems to be Nogami.You can tell when you hear the sound.His strong shoulders leaned against the door, and he glanced up from under his protruding forehead at faces he didn't recognize. Wu Ze quickly put his right hand into his chest pocket.Nogami's expression moved slightly.Wu Ze stretched out his right hand in front of him, shrinking back in favor. "Sorry for the sudden interruption. Here is my business card."

Seeing Takezawa's business card, Nogami narrowed his eyes. "Co., Ltd... wiretapping retreat?" There is no way out. "Yes, we are concerned about the recent frequent wiretapping in the city—" Takezawa began to explain to Nogami. With a businesslike smile on his face, Lao Tie slightly turned off Wu Ze's smooth explanation.In order to prevent the recent frequent wiretapping cases in the city, they are patrolling day and night, focusing on removing the wiretapping devices-these are the concepts of the "Bugging Removal Team" led by Wu Ze, which is the content of the business.

"Today happened to be the day for regular inspections in this area. But during our inspections, it was detected that illegal FM radio waves were emitted from the inside of this building. In order to confirm the location of the radio waves, we started from the first floor and went one by one. Radio waves were detected in front of each house. However, our wiretap detectors did not have a particularly strong response regardless of the room.” Nogami looked back and forth between the business card he took and the face of Takezawa who handed it over.There were yelling and threatening voices in the room.

"Finally, we came to the tenth floor. We tested each house in order from room 1004, which is the closest to the elevator. Our machine still didn't show the existence of bugs. We also felt strange and thought there was something wrong. .” At the end of the conversation, Wu Ze showed a friendly smile, then quickly put on a serious expression and continued: "But, when the radio wave was detected in front of the door of Room 1001, the machine...ah, yes, please It will be easier to understand if you look at it directly.” Wu Ze turned around, made a gesture to the back, and Zhenxun took out a small machine from the travel bag.It was a rectangular walkie-talkie-like thing that Wu Ze bought in Akihabara in advance. It was a genuine wiretapping detector with a small square LCD screen on it. A "!" symbol will be displayed.The number of symbols is proportional to the strength of detected eavesdropping radio waves, from one to five.

Zhenxun turned on the power of the detector, waited for a few seconds, and there were two "!" on the screen.She turned the screen in the direction of Nogami to show him.The detector moves slightly closer to the room, so that another "!" appears next to the "!" on the screen.But the new one is not always on, but blinking.It seems that the detected eavesdropping wave strength is 1.5, but I don't know what the unit is. Really turn off the power to the detector. "--Yes, it is like that." Takezawa turned back to Nogami. "Apparently there's been a strong response in the 1001 rooms here." Nogami looked impatient, not knowing what he was thinking.He stared at Wu Ze and looked up and down, as if he was looking for something. "Oh, that's right, is there electricity in the room?" "Electric waves." "Do not talk nonsense!" Nogami suddenly shouted.Wu Ze shuddered.Is Kantaro okay——Old Tie glanced behind him quietly. Ouch, the old iron was taken aback.Only Kantaro looks normal.Of course, he still looked uneasy as always, but only he didn't seem to hear Nogami's loud shout, his expression remained unchanged. "Sorry." Wu Ze covered his mouth, bowed exaggeratedly, and continued: "Actually, when we inspected the outside of this building before, we didn't find any strange radio waves coming from the building, so we hope to find out-- There hasn’t been anything related to eavesdropping recently, right? For example, it feels like someone overheard the conversation in the room or something.” Nogami looked down, and his thick fingers slowly stroked his chin, as if he was thinking about something.He was silent for a long time, thirty seconds, and finally raised his eyes and asked, "Do you need money for this inspection?" No, Wu Ze shook his head. "We don't charge any inspection fees. We only charge detection fees if our inspections do find bugs. Ah, by the way, if we are commissioned to remove bugs that are found, there will also be removal fees." For each fee, Nogami asked the specific amount one by one.Wu Ze quoted a few cheap prices - but not unnaturally cheap figures. "That's all the money, isn't it?" "Of course. We're not a dishonest business." As before, Nogami's eyes fell on the ground, thinking about something, and he slowly stroked his chin. "Wait a minute, I'll ask the higher up." Just as Nogami was about to take out his cell phone from his coat pocket, Wu Ze hurriedly waved his hand. "Oh, it's okay, it's okay. Don't worry, our test won't touch anything. It will be fine in a short time." real?Nogami looked at Takezawa with a questioning face.Really, Wu Ze showed a sincere smile.The two looked at each other for a while. Finally, Nogami moved away and gestured towards the room with his chin. "Then check it out." The moment Wu Ze heard these words, Wu Ze felt as if all the strength in his body had been vented from around his vertebrae—success. That being said, it's dangerous. The "upper person" that Nogami was going to call just now is probably the fire point.It was nice to be able to stop him in the nick of time.If Kazuru listened to Nogami explain what happened over the phone and said, "Then I'll be right back," it would be over. All in all, the first hurdle has now been broken through.Wu Ze took care not to show any flaws in his serious expression, and walked towards the door. "Then we're coming in—ah, you all hand over your business cards, too." Lao Tie and Kantaro each handed their business cards to Nogami and bowed.Wu Ze took off his shoes at the entrance and walked into the room.At the end of the short passage was a wooden door with panes of glass.Nogami rushed past Takezawa from behind and opened the door.The originally small voice suddenly became louder.I heard an annoying voice on the receiver in room 902, and when it came time to face it directly, I still felt nauseous. "excuse me." Inside the door is a spacious living room with wooden floors.There was a smell of cigarettes in the air. Opposite left are a pair of black leather sofas.In the middle of the sofa is a low table that looks like a marble top.There is a conference table on the right side of the room, surrounded by about ten or so metal folding chairs.There were three people sitting on the chairs, each with their mobile phones stuck to their ears, while talking, they turned their heads towards Wu Ze and the others.Among them were two young men.One of them was obese and the other was very thin.The fat man had dark, emotionless eyes.The thin man had triangular eyes, as if he was taking drugs, and his sharp eyes flickered lightly.The last person sat inside, with one foot resting on the chair. He was small and looked very old, so it was not an exaggeration to call him an old man.On his flat bean-like face, two eyes gleamed as if planning something.Each of the three people gave people a bad impression, but for some reason, Wu Ze intuitively felt the strongest fear for the last old broad bean. Nogami motioned to the three of them to continue working, and then looked back at Wu Ze. "—Then, how do we do it?" "Well, we will start checking next. If we find anything, we will notify you. You don't need to worry about us, just keep doing what you need to do." Nogami didn't answer, just sat down on one of the sofas, lit a cigarette, and folded his arms, as if observing Wu Ze and his every move.Wu Ze smiled at him and said, "Ah, it's okay. Just continue working as usual." "This is what it usually looks like." According to what has been eavesdropped so far, it seems that in this office, apart from the fire port, Nogami has the highest position.When Huo Zuo was away, he always seemed to be sitting on the sofa like this, observing the work of his subordinates. "And here we go—hello." Wu Ze yelled at Zhenxun.Mahiro took out the detector just now from his bag, adjusted a few knobs, and began to shake the antenna slowly in a fan shape.Wu Ze looked at the screen of the detector while scanning the interior of the room—where is the safe?I didn't see it at a glance. "Tateyama, let me check the watch box outside." Lao Tie greeted Wu Ze and left the entrance.Nogami frowned suspiciously, with the cigarette in his hand resting on his lips, he looked towards Kantaro who was the closest. "Hey, what is that guy doing out there?" "Hey……" Kantaro was stunned.Standing with his hands hanging by his sides, he stared blankly at Nogami's face.Oops, I obviously discussed how to answer this question beforehand, but Kantaro seemed too nervous and forgot how to say it. "that--" Wu Ze was about to intervene to relieve Kantaro. "I'm asking this fat man." Nogami said viciously.Leaning at Kantaro again, he asked again, "What is that guy doing out there?" "Ah, that..." While pricking up his ears to listen to the conversation between Takezawa and the others, Yahiro prayed secretly in his heart.Answer quickly.quick.quick.Yesterday and today, I reviewed so many times.It was clearly discussed carefully.If the silence is too long, the other party will become suspicious. ——However, Kantaro remained silent. What happened to Kantaro?I didn't expect him to be so nervous.When performing magic tricks on the stage, when they broke into Wu Ze's residence for the first time, they didn't even raise the word "tight". Last night, Hachiro asked Kantaro. "Guanguan, there's nothing you're hiding from me, right?" This is the feeling Yahiro has always had.Yahiro wanted to ask Kantaro this way several times while staying at a business hotel, during the progress of the planning preparations, and during the process of bugging those guys' offices in Room 902.But every time I swallowed hard.I have known him for so long, Kantaro has never kept anything from himself.Even the matter of impotence was told to himself long before the formal relationship.So this time, I was overthinking, Baxun told himself.The favorite Kantaro will hide something from himself-Mahiro doesn't even want to think about it. "How is it possible. How can I keep something from you?" Kantaro replied.Seeing Kantaro's pretended smiling face, Hachiro immediately understood that his doubts were true.Obviously Kantaro is hiding something, and it looks like it might be something very important.Baxun didn't know what to say.She also wanted to find out Kantaro's secrets, but even at this time, she still didn't want to believe that, how could Kantaro hide something from herself? "right." In the end Yahiro just said with a smile like this. come on.come on.Come on - Hachiro prayed desperately.Quickly answer Nogami's question.Before he got suspicious.quick.quick. Not knowing if Yahiro's prayer had come true, Kantaro finally made a sound. "He went to check the meter box outside the door. Water meters, electricity meters and gas meters. There are often repeaters hidden in the meter box, that is, repeaters for wiretapping." Kantaro spoke unexpectedly fluently, and Takezawa felt more at ease.It looked like he just forgot what to answer for a moment.What a fat man. "What is a repeater?" "Well, well, that is to say, things like bugs are only about this big." Kantaro stretched out his hand and compared it to the size of a hundred-yen coin. "I can't send out too strong radio waves, so I need to use a repeater placed somewhere to receive the weak radio waves, and then convert them into strong enough radio waves and send them to the receiver. This kind of situation has been more frequent recently. See." "Ha...it's a big project." Although it was just nonsense, Nogami seemed to believe it.Kantaro turned and left, approached the table where the other three were sitting, bent down, tapped the easy chair with his fingers, and began to look for the bug.The three of them almost exuded a murderous look, and while glancing at Kantaro, they held up their mobile phones and continued to urge and intimidate. We need to find out where the safe is. "Can I go in and take a look at the room over there?" Wu Ze wanted to go to the door on the left of the living room, Nogami raised his body slightly, wanted to say something, but sat back anyway.Wu Ze held the doorknob, gently pushed the door open, and poked his head in.Look to the right, look to the left.It's empty, just the floor, nothing— No, right in front of you.The heavy gray fireproof safe was directly opposite, dialed.At this moment, a large amount of cash is being collected inside.Wu Ze gulped down a mouthful of saliva and turned around.You can see the profile of Nogami smoking on the sofa.Beside him is Mahiro.Looking towards Wu Ze.Wu Ze made a gesture to her, signaling that she had found the safe.She understood and rubbed her nose according to the agreed signal. "Girl, do you have a cold?" Old Broad Bean, with one foot on the seat of the chair, turned to Mahiro with a smile.I don't know if I am planning to take a short break from work, or I am interested in the intruder, and the phone in my hand has been placed on the table at some point. "No, hay fever allergies." Really looking for a cover-up.Old Broad Bean looked Mahiro up and down with unpleasantly fierce eyes, then hissed and laughed. "To deal with pollen allergies, the child's umbilical cord is said to be very effective." "yes?" "Eat it raw." Zhenxun decided to ignore the unpleasant words that were almost harassing, and raised the detector to continue working.But the old broad bean kept pestering him. "Let's have a baby with uncle and me." "Ok?" "Hey, to treat pollen allergies, use the umbilical cord." "No, no need." "How to have a baby, girl, you don't know yet." "Know what you know." "Then, let's try it later. In fact, it can be done now, uncle, I can do it anytime." "Shut up, I'm not interested." Not good - Wu Ze's body froze.Immediately afterwards, the sound of fists slamming on the table, accompanied by sharp roars pierced into the ears. "Try to say it again!" Unexpectedly, it was not the old broad beans that made the sound, but the young triangular-eyed guy sitting across from him.On the thin face, the eyes stared as if they were about to burst open, and the two small black eyeballs trembled, with no fixed focus. "Ah, isn't it—" Wu Ze was about to rush to Zhenxun's side in a hurry, and the triangular eyes roared again: "I said that I must pay it back today! You said it yourself!" He was yelling at the phone in his hand. "What a cute little girl, so proud." Old Broad Bean laughed, his voice was like washing dishes, and his thin shoulders kept shaking.He went back to his work, flipped through the documents at hand with a smile on his face, and typed the number written on it into his mobile phone. Stop making trouble—Wu Ze cast a reproachful look at Zhen Xun. After being stared at by Wu Ze like this, he coughed for real.It was really dangerous just now, Wu Ze must be angry.I really don't want to do this, and there is no other way. In any case, this time the battle must be successful anyway.mother's revenge.Cockscomb hatred.And cash. ——If you fail, there will be no future.Because during the battle, all the money stuffed in the travel bag was gone.Although I didn't want to use the money at first, and I wanted to throw it away several times so far, the reason why I didn't really throw it away was because I was still thinking about how to live in the future.If anything, the money might be like some kind of insurance.However, that insurance is no longer available. After calming down, Zhenxiu began to embark on the next battle.She moved slowly around the room.The detector on the handle is approaching the sofa, the field on which you sit, the low table, the window - the "!" on the screen has changed from one point five to two - close to the folding chair, the annoying old broad beans, And the table in front of him—in this area, the number of "!"s increased dramatically to four. Seeing Shinhiro stop in front of the table, Wu Ze asked nervously, "Have you had a reaction?" "Ah, Mr. Tateyama. That's right. This...near the table." "table?" Wu Ze walked to Zhenxun's side, nodded to the three people in apology, and looked under the table.Then he tilted his head and glanced at the table.Then he muttered again. Five of the ten prepaid mobile phones that were delivered remained in this office.Three of them are currently being used by these three people, and the remaining two are just thrown on the table.Wu Ze waved to Shinhiro, motioning her to check the phone.Zhenxun brought the detectors closer to the five mobile phones in sequence, and four "!"s were already lit on the screen, but when they approached the phone, they turned into five. "These... all?" In response to Wu Ze's serious voice, Shinhiro also nodded seriously. "Seems." The old Broad Bean who was facing the table, with triangular eyes, and the fat man with an expressionless face, continued to make a phone call while looking at Wu Ze and the two with frowns. "Hey, what's the matter?" Nogami stood behind, Wu Ze turned his head, and asked with a serious face: "Sorry to ask, when and through what channel did you buy this prepaid mobile phone?" "Huh?...Oh, it's an advertising flyer that I bought from a mail order company a few days ago and put it in the mailbox. It's a one-thousand-dollar deal." A thousand dollars?Mahiro repeated in a low voice in surprise.Wu Ze continued: "Do you know the contact information of that company?" "It should have been written on the advertising sheet—oh, it seems to have been thrown away. I said, what's wrong? Is there something wrong with this phone?" After a pause, Wu Ze said with regret: "This is not very pleasant to say... You have been completely deceived." "Tricked?" "That company sells these phones for the purpose of eavesdropping." Facing the doubtful Nogami, Wu Ze clearly said: "I'm afraid the bug is inside, among the five phones." The expressions of Nogami and the three people each holding the phone changed at the same time. Seeing the change in expression, Wu Ze was convinced that they had fallen into a trap completely.After stopping for a breath, Wu Ze continued cautiously: "Preliminary judgment, all five telephones have been implanted with bugs. Can we investigate further?" "How are you going to investigate?" "Allow us to take one of these apart—hey, Kobayashi." "yes." In response, a strange pattern appeared on Kantaro's overalls who came over at some point, and Wu Ze couldn't help but thump in his heart.what is that?From the shoulders to the chest, the gray of the cloth became thick—it was sweat.Kantaro was sweating a lot.The face is already soaked.Like it just got out of the water. "You're too fat, why don't you be hot. You should also exercise once in a while." Wu Ze concealed his fall.However, from Kantaro's expression, it was clear that his sweat was not from heat.Yes, sweating is due to nervousness. "Xiao Lin, take one of these telephones apart and have a look." "Ah, yes." As discussed in advance, Kantaro took out a small screwdriver from the breast pocket of his overalls and began to disassemble the phone.Sweat dripping from Yuanyuan's chin dripped onto his hands—at this moment, the three people around the table also hung up their phones and watched Kantaro's movements.While watching, from time to time, he cast a frightening gaze at the mobile phone he was using just now. With a click, there was a sound from the entrance, and the old iron came back. "There's nothing wrong with the meter box. No repeater found—" Lao Tie stopped talking, and looked at Wu Ze and the others around the table in puzzlement. "……What's wrong?" Wu Ze explained the current situation to Lao Tie.Lao Tie let out an "hey", showing a surprised expression, and stared at Kantaro's hand like everyone else.At this moment, with a click, the body of the phone was opened, revealing the contents inside.motherboard.Countless fine lines.inside the screen.At the bottom of the intricate circuit, there is a boxy black thing the size of a caramel.Apparently that was a bug that had been installed in advance.I'm afraid everyone here understands it.Because the white mark on the surface reads "Plagiarism No.002".Kantaro clamped the bug with his baby-like fingers, cut off the wire with a click, took it out of the phone, and held it in the air by the wire.Mahiro brought the detector close to Kantaro's finger.Five "!" are displayed on the screen. Takezawa turned to Nogami. "That's it, that's right. You don't need to dismantle it, the other four should have been installed with the same thing." Nogami cursed. "A bug of this size can only transmit radio waves up to a distance of about 50 meters, so there should be a repeater near this room. The so-called repeater is what Xiaolin explained just now— Do we need to find that thing too?" Before answering, Nogami looked at the three accomplices.Thin triangular eyes and fat expressionless——the concave-convex duo glanced at each other, then looked back at Nogami, the old Broad Bean put his arms around his slender chest and hissed, "Let's look for it. " "Do you think so too?" Although Nogami's status is relatively high, there is always a trace of respect in his attitude towards the old broad bean.It's as if Nogami tried his best to hide it, but it would always show through his tone or eyes.It's a very subtle feeling. Old Broad Bean snorted. "That's the only way, Nogami. If you don't take down that thing called a repeater, the next time another bug comes in, the same thing will happen again." "Yes." Wu Ze agreed. "If you ask our opinion, I really hope to find a repeater here, and weed it out. Is it possible?" Nogami hesitated for a while, and finally glared at Wu Ze angrily. "Go do it." "Hey, Ding," Wu Ze turned around and greeted Lao Tie, "Go and find the repeater." "understood." The old iron took out the square machine that looked like a walkie-talkie from the butt pocket of the overalls.Takezawa explains the purpose of the machine to Nogami. "That's the Repeater Finder—the Repeater Finder. With that machine, the Repeater will be found in no time." The old iron turned on the switch of the machine, and there was a noise from the speaker, as if the sound of the radio was not tuned to the frequency-in fact, it was the noise of the radio.In addition, doesn't this machine look like a walkie-talkie on the outside, it is a walkie-talkie. In fact, Takezawa's arrangement is as follows: This machine, which is said to be a relay detector, is actually Kantaro's original creation. It just hollows out the inside of the walkie-talkie and plugs it into a small semiconductor radio.Very simple props.The knob of the radio is adjusted in advance to ensure that only noise can be heard in the speaker, and then gently move the volume knob with the little finger to increase or decrease the noise.Next, as long as you have a bit of acting skills, you can make the noise of the machine indicate the existence of the repeater. When Lao Tie proposed such a machine, although there were objections that it was too much like a child’s trick, But considering that if the operation can progress to the step of using relay detectors, the opponent should no longer be suspicious, so it was finally decided to do so. "oops……" The old iron tilted his head in surprise. "Suddenly there was a reflection, this." The speakers are slightly louder.In fact, he instructed the old man to turn up the volume with his little finger. "Could it be that the repeater is indoors..." Regarding Wu Ze's words, Lao Tie shook his head ambiguously, stretched out his arms, and fanned the machine.Antennas are slowly directed towards all corners of the room.Then, when the antenna was pointing in a certain direction - because of the operation of the old iron, of course - the noise suddenly became louder. The antenna points to the door leading to the next door. "The room over there—" Wu Ze asked Nogami, "Can I go in again?" Nogami made no objection.Wu Ze and Lao Tie walked through the door of that room together.Nogami also followed in, and the old iron made the noise even louder. He raised the machine and pointed the antenna at the safe, making the noise even louder.The old iron walked over, stuck the machine itself on the safe, and turned the noise knob to the maximum. The sound of "squeak" echoed in the empty room. "Is this... a safe?" This is the first time for this kind of thing——Old Tie whispered with such a feeling.With a "how come" expression, Wu Ze bent down and looked at the front of the safe.Look at the side, look at the back, look at the bottom.Then he paused for a while - about 20 seconds or so, made an application that he had thought about for a long time, and then turned to Nogami. "It's inside." Nogami frowned and poked his head out, as if he didn't know what it meant.Wu Ze changed his way and said: "In this safe, the repeater." "This... are you kidding me?" Nogami, who has always been calm, seemed to be a little flustered for the first time.This is also of course.Suddenly being told that a bugging repeater was installed in the safe of my home, anyone would be anxious if it was changed. "Any clues?" Oh, Nogami shook his head. "I have no idea, there is only cash in that thing...it should be cash." "Can you open it and have a look?" "open what?" "Safe, this." With a bang, Wu Ze knocked on the top of the safe.Nogami let out a low moan and folded his arms. "This is not okay." "what?" Wu Ze couldn't help poking his probe.I thought it would be easy to open for myself. "But, the repeater seems to be inside here, if we don't open it, even if we want to dismantle it—" "No one knows how to open it, people here." Really worst case scenario. "Because only the fire port knows the number." "Then, can you contact that Mr. Huokou and ask for his number?" Even if he contacted Huokou and he said he was coming back, the battle should be over by the time he arrives.All in all, since only Huokou knew the number, he could only ask him. "Ah... this..." Nogami lowered his eyes, as if he was having a hard time.Thinking about the reason, Wu Ze immediately thought of the conversation outside the entrance.Nogami said that when Wu Ze and the others were asked to check the bugs, they wanted to obtain permission from Huokou, but Wu Ze stopped them at that time.Now that I contact Huokou to explain the whole story, I feel that it is hard to say. "Let me call, Nogami." It was Old Broad Bean who spoke. "You can't tell, because they didn't ask for instructions when they came in. Let me call." Nogami stared at the old broad bean's face for a while, then nodded slightly. "Excuse me, call for me." So Old Broad Bean took out his mobile phone in a pretentious manner, and pressed a few buttons.The other party seemed to pick it up immediately.Old broad bean briefly explained what had happened, and asked for the number of the safe at the crater.You can hear the sound of the crater getting louder, so the old broad bean said, oh, sorry, I agreed.It sounded like the words of Asylum Nogami.Holding the phone to his ear, Asano smiled.Nogami looked away in embarrassment. "—Hey, then I'll hang up first. Hey, hey, I'll contact you as soon as I figure out the situation, hey." Old Broad Bean hung up the phone.Then without saying anything, he bent down in front of the safe, covered his hands with his body, and turned the dial several times.click. "Okay, I'll leave the rest to you." Old Broad Bean stood up and turned to Wu Ze at the same time, the door of the safe opened—bundles of banknotes.Wu Ze couldn't help feeling a force rising from his lower abdomen.How much money is there.The safe is very dark and I can't see clearly.The banknotes were tied casually with rubber bands.Probably in bundles of a hundred.At a glance, there are twelve or thirteen bundles that can be seen. "Okay, let's check." Wu Ze walked into the safe, and when he was about to look inside, a big hand grabbed his left shoulder. "Get the money out first." It was Nogami, he squeezed in front of the safe, and changed places with Wu Ze.Then carefully remove the bundles of banknotes.One, two... seven, eight... thirteen, fourteen... banknotes stuffed all the way to the inside.All eighteen bundles—eighteen million.Then there were dozens of scattered 10,000-yuan notes. "I didn't see anything like a machine..." Nogami held a lot of banknotes in his left arm and scattered ten thousand banknotes in his right hand. He bent down and looked inside the safe. "It may be that the inner wall has been tampered with. There have been many such cases recently." Takezawa responded ambiguously, while winking at Kantaro.Kantaro nodded and walked behind Yakami.The sweat-stained area on the work clothes is larger than before.Please Kantaro——Takezawa couldn't help but feel like praying. "Can I take a look?" After Kantaro said this, Nogami moved away impatiently while holding the money. "Ah... I lost one." Kantaro picked up a 10,000-yuan note from the ground.Nogami hurriedly took it—but this 10,000-yuan note was not actually dropped by Nogami.It was Kantaro who threw it down from his sleeve. Shinzo greeted Nogami softly from behind. "This is for you... at your convenience." She held out a white paper bag.Nogami looked at Mahiro in surprise. "Ah, it's all right. It's clean." Regarding Mahiro's words, Nogami snorted and put the banknotes he was holding into a paper bag.One bundle, two bundles, three bundles... The reason why Nogami used the paper bag that Mahiro handed over without any doubt was because Kantaro picked up 10,000 yuan banknotes from the ground... Eleven, Twelve... all the time Holding it in his arms, it's easy to fall to the ground, he thought so... Seventeen, eighteen.Then there were dozens of scattered 10,000-yuan banknotes.The moment everything was put into the bag, Wu Ze clenched his fists in his heart.Now, there is only one last step left. "Um... um? Um..." Kantaro poked his head into the safe, creaking and groping inside with his right hand.Everyone stared at Kantaro's squirming ass.The old Titan's machine continued to make noise. "oh oh!" 终于,贯太郎把汗透的上半身从保险柜里费劲地拽出来,站起身,靠近野上。 “这个,中继器。顶上靠门边的地方,藏得很好。” 贯太郎右手手掌上放着的是一个灰色的四方形机器。当然,这个其实是刚刚从工作服的腹部取出来的。正好是半块豆腐的大小。顶上伸出短短的天线。这也是贯太郎准备的道具。虽然不知道窃听的时候是不是真要有中继器之类的东西,不过姑且先让贯太郎做了个看上去挺像回事的东西。包括之前老铁拿的中继探测器,贯太郎坐起来倒是相当得心应手。到底是做过魔术道具的人。 不过,虽然是难得做出来的作品,野上他们对它本身好像并没什么兴趣。他们快速穿过贯太郎身边,聚集到保险柜旁。没有仔细检查这个假货固然不错,但这样一来,和预想的倒是有点不一样了。保险柜——野上等人——武泽他们——门口。这样的站立位置不好。要想个办法小心调整…… “到底是谁,怎么把这东西装到保险柜里去的?” 拎着装现金的纸袋,野上往保险柜里张望。武泽严肃地回答说:“这一点我们也不知道。请让我们再检查一下可以吗?也许会发现某些外部人员动手脚的证据。” “动手脚的证据吗,哪种……” 野上上半身探进保险柜里,开始用手在里面乱摸,看起来他好像是想自己找线索。怎么办——武泽犹豫了。按照现在这样站立的位置,没办法进行下一步行动。必须想个办法让野上离开保险柜。但是现在不能随便说话。需要小心选择台词。戴不惯的帽子内侧,湿湿地渗出了汗珠。其中的一滴飞快地从脑后滴落。武泽一边用手擦汗,一边向老铁投去询问的眼神——怎么办?老铁表情僵硬地回望武泽。 就在这时,预想外的可怕事件在眼前发生了。 “你在干——” 武泽倒吸一口冷气。眼前的景象让人无法置信。不愿相信。 “贯太郎……” 武泽情不自禁地喊出了真名,不过似乎谁也没注意到这一点。全员都注视着贯太郎。除了上半身探进保险柜的野上之外。 “你……在干什么……” 老铁挤出泄气般的声音。 贯太郎握在双手里的是那只气枪。枪口正对着野上的背。武泽脑海里满是疑问。贯太郎在干什么?到底打算怎么样?只听到哧、哧、哧、哧的声音。那是贯太郎河豚一样的嘴里发出来的。他的嘴唇不断颤抖,下颌的肉僵硬着,咆哮道:“都给我闭嘴。” 贯太郎这么一喊,大家全都安静下来。同时这一声也让野上“嗯”地一声从保险柜里抽出身体,然后看见正对自己的黑色L字形可怕物体,顿时大叫一声,条件反射地仰头朝后,后脑勺撞在保险柜边缘,发出哐的一声。 “说了闭嘴闭嘴闭嘴!都闭嘴!闭嘴!” No one spoke.贯太郎的双眼看上去异常狂躁。胸口和肩膀在颤抖,汗水从脸上一滴滴掉落,唿吸急促——明显是不知道自己在做什么的模样。 "you--" 武泽刚说了一个字,就被老铁伸出一只手拦住了。他小声说:“糟糕。那小子……眼神不对头。” “那个,那个袋,袋子给我!给我!钱!那些钱钱钱!” 贯太郎朝屁股着地的野上伸出手去。那手像是酒精中毒的患者一样在颤抖。老铁朝野上望去,微微摇头。 “不能给。” 野上尖锐的目光死盯着贯太郎——但那眼神深处明显带着困惑——他把装有现金的白色纸袋紧紧抱在肚子上。 “快!钱!钱!” 贯太郎再度双手握住气枪。野上、老蚕豆、三角眼、无表情的胖子,四个人在保险柜前面各自紧闭双唇,视线游移。说到心中的慌乱,武泽他们也是一样。当然武泽等人知道贯太郎手中的是气枪,但这一计划外的事态让他们也不禁变了脸色。 悄无声息潜入野上四个人和贯太郎之间的是老铁。他用胸口挡在气枪的枪口前,一只手朝背后的野上他们示意。 “逃吧——快。” 野上他们刹那间交换了一下眼神,四个人立刻聚到一起,开始向房间的角落逐步移动。贯太郎的枪口追随着他们的动作。但是老铁一直挡在枪口和四个人之间——终于,野上他们到了门口。就在这时,老蚕豆歪嘴一笑。 “喂,胖子,那枪不是真的吧。” 老铁猛然回身。枪口直指老蚕豆。 “仿造得倒是很不错嘛。” “闭闭闭,闭嘴!” 叫喊的同时贯太郎扣动了扳机。砰的一声,几乎连鼓膜都要震破的爆炸声在房间里响起。老蚕豆的正后方——客厅沙发的一头,猛然飞出白色的棉絮。皮革上出现黑色的洞口,里面冒出缕缕青烟。 “你……你那个……” 老铁的手脚都僵在半路,双眼和嘴都瞪得老大,费力地挤出声音。 “那个,不是气枪吗?” “我说这个才是气枪!” 贯太郎唾沫横飞地叫喊着,从工作服的腹部掏出一个黑黑的东西,扔到地上。是气枪。 “不好意思,钱归我了。全都归我了。给我。这次绝对不会错过了。谁敢拦我我就打爆谁的头。真的打爆!爆!爆掉!” 贯太郎把枪口对准野上。野上庞大的身躯微微发颤,死死盯着贯太郎。 “快给我大猩猩!” 贯太郎咆哮着逼近一步。野上四肢僵硬,视线在同伙中游移。但是另外三个人都想木偶一样僵硬不动,只是呆呆看着贯太郎。 “……这边。” 发出声音的是真寻。声音里带有与当下的场面不相称的毅然。站在野上身边的她,眼神像是要说什么似的,抬头望向野上,伸出一只手。 “袋子给我。” “想干什么!快给钱!给我!” 贯太郎又逼近一步。像是要从那股迫力下逃走一般,野上飞快把纸袋递到真寻手里。 “喂,喂,喂!为什么你拿着?给我!” 这一回贯太郎向真寻逼去。 “给我!不然打你!不管什么人,敢反抗的就杀!真的杀!杀!杀!” 颤抖的枪口朝向真寻。at this time-- 真寻飞快转身,飞快地跑了出去。啊,不知是谁叫了一声。贯太郎喊了一声什么,同时扣动了扳机。房间里再度响起震耳欲聋的爆炸声,紧挨着飞跑出去的真寻身边,椅子旋转着飞了出去。真寻没有回身,她奔向客厅。贯太郎噔噔噔地在后面追。身体撞在玄关门上的声音。只穿着袜子跑上走廊的声音。短短的声音。True voice.Then-- 传来咚的一声。冲击声,像是使足力气把铁哑铃砸到混凝土上的声音。那声音在远处回荡。在远处,不是在远远的前方,也不是在远远的后方,而是在远远的——下方。 “小子……” 武泽跑了出去,其他人都紧跟在后面。武泽飞奔出客厅,穿过短短的走廊,出了玄关的门。贯太郎站在那里,就在外廊的边缘木然而立,一动不动。 贯太郎的脸向下望着,面无表情地俯览着什么。武泽简直像撞上去一样,紧挨住外廊的栏杆,顺着贯太郎的视线望去。 最初映入眼帘的是一片红色。那红色慢慢扩展开来。接着武泽眼中分辨出灰色。是工作服的灰色。然后是肌肤的颜色。摊开的头发的栗色。装现金的纸袋的白色——就在旁边的二层楼建筑的屋顶。硬硬的混凝土屋顶。 “不是我……” 像是做梦一样毫无起伏的声音。 “不是我……她……她自己要逃……她自己……” “你干了什么浑蛋!” 伴随着怒吼,武泽再度跑了出去。势头猛烈地冲下楼梯,冲下去,冲下去,冲下去,一直冲到二楼走廊上。旁边屋顶就在近旁。从走廊栏杆到旁边屋顶虽然有近两米的距离,但武泽还是毫不犹豫地飞跃过去。冰冷的混凝土棱角咕咚一声撞到肚子上。武泽一边呻吟一边纵身跳上屋顶。 "Hey!" 武泽喊了一声,但是地上的人动也不动,完全没有反应。装了现金的袋子一直很小心地抱在胸口。 武泽双膝跪地,触摸她的肩膀。依然没有反应。她的嘴巴半张着,眼帘也微微睁开,从那缝隙间露出白眼珠。嗒嗒嗒嗒,背后的走廊里传来许多脚步声。第一个跳过来的是老铁。 “救护车!快!” 武泽向老铁喊了一句,然后把倒在地上的身子抱起来,用手臂撑住无力垂下的头。工作服被染得鲜红。武泽回身朝向大楼走廊。贯太郎逃向紧急楼梯,惊惶地跑下去,从武泽的视野里消失了。 “喂,那个——” 野上想要说什么。武泽把装了现金的纸袋拿起来,朝房顶上粗暴地扔过去。 “钱什么的给你!你们也帮帮忙,今天的事都当没看见。赶紧回你们事务所去。不然你们也有麻烦,有个人——” 咽下后半句话,武泽嘴里低低骂了一句。 “救护车叫了!马上就来!不要晃头,把她抬到下面去。” 武泽和老铁两个人把不再动弹的身体小心抬起来,从天台进入大楼,下了昏暗的楼梯。虽然没有忘记老铁说的“不要晃头”,但是武泽怎么也稳不住脚步。她的头晃个不停。 忍受不了那么剧烈的摇晃,八寻终于发出声音。 “老武——老武,稍微抬好点行不行?” “尸体闭嘴。再有一点儿就好了。” “跟受刑一样。行了行了我自己走。反正也没人了。” 武泽猛然站住,走在前面的老铁怪叫一声摔下去。屁股口袋里飞出的中继探测器掉在地上。那冲击让里面的半导体收音机的频率偶然碰上了某个电台,堀内孝雄的《怀念之日》从扬声器里响了起来。老铁正要捡起机器,被武泽拦住了。 “行了,别捡了。反正也不用了。” “那就扔了吧。” “这个也扔了吧,重的要命。” 八寻把工作服里塞的五公斤铁哑铃扔到地上。 把堀内孝雄的歌声留在背后,三个人啪嗒啪嗒赶下楼梯。一边走,八寻一边问武泽:“喂,顺利吗?按计划进行的吗?” “哎呀,很危险。” “贯太郎个浑蛋,差点儿全搞砸了。那家伙把站的位置搞错了。” “站的位置?” 稍微想了想,八寻明白了贯太郎的失败。 “难道贯贯背对着装火药的地方掏出枪了?” “不愧是八寻,没看都知道。” 老铁钦佩地说。 是吗,贯太郎犯了那样的错误吗? 计划是这样的:首先,贯太郎装作寻找窃听器的样子,在房间的几个地方撞上火药和遥控式点火装置。点火装置以贯太郎的气枪启动,也就是一扣扳机,装好的火药就会爆炸。当然气枪本身也做了改动,让它能发出爆炸声。从武泽和老铁的话来看,贯太郎设置火药和点火装置应该没有问题。那就是之后掏出气枪的时间错了。本来贯太郎掏出气枪的时候,需要时“贯太郎——敌人——火药”这样的站立位置。原因很明显:不然的话,面朝敌人扣动扳机的时候,反而是相反方向的火药爆炸。但听起来贯太郎是在“敌人——贯太郎——火药”的站位上掏抢了。 武泽哼了一声。 “幸亏老铁聪明,领着野上他们转了一圈——真是莫名其妙的错误。” “那家伙一直都干得不坏,动作台词全都不错。只有一回,那个猩猩问的时候,回答的时间拖长了点儿。哎,不过还是不错吧,最终到底成功了。” 是吧,老铁向武泽一笑,武泽也像受了影响似的笑起来。 “是啊。接下来就是和真寻贯太郎会合,顺利逃走,然后就结束了。” 大楼出口马上就到了,预定在那里和真寻贯太郎他们汇合。接下来的任务就是逃走。其实只要脱了工作服混迹在人群里,全员都和路人没有区别了。 “真寻做的也不错吗?” “啊,她干得很好。” "Always?" “一直。就连知道计划的我,都以为她是真的掉下去了。” 也就是这样的:作战的最后,抱了装现金的袋子从事务所里跑出去的真寻,飞奔出一〇〇一室的玄关,立刻跑进隔壁房间。隔壁的门由“出去查查表箱”的老铁事先开好。所以这一次的作战必须要等一〇〇二室的住客不在的时候才能进行。 其他人迟一步跑出走廊的时候,贯太郎一边说“她掉下去了……”一边木然俯瞰隔壁大楼的房顶。在那里,八寻事先全身染满红色墨水,抱着同样的袋子,翻起白眼倒在那里。掉地的声音当然只是铁哑铃撞击混凝土而已。另一方面,抱着真正袋子的真寻,飞跑进一〇〇二室里,把钱换到仿冒的LV包里。脱下工作服,里面本来就穿好了少女风格的衣服,然后趁其他人集中在二楼走廊的功夫,悠然自得地坐电梯下楼——贯太郎以气枪和火药牵制敌人,是防止他们当中有人追在真寻后面跑出房间,看到她跑进隔壁,那就会露馅了,整个计划将功亏一篑。贯太郎的开枪,是为了让敌人的行动迟缓混乱,准备两枪是觉得如此更显真实。那是武泽的主意。 八寻这边,当武泽、老铁、贯太郎、真寻四个人在一〇〇一室开战作战的过程中,一直守在九〇二室里,竖起耳朵收听接收机里的声音,一边听一〇〇一室的动静,一边等待躺到隔壁楼顶上的时机。太早染上红墨水躺过去的话,说不定会被别的房客凑巧看到,弄假成真叫救护车过来就糟了。相比之下八寻的工作虽然是最简单,不过要把沾在头发上的这些墨水洗干净,也不是件容易事。 下了楼梯,八寻他们来到大楼的大厅。 “姐姐,你还这么红啊。” 真寻站在那里。前襟敞开的针织衫、超短百褶裙、金光闪烁的粗腰带、仿冒LV包——太配了。她要是去夜店工作的话,真能招来很多客人吧,八寻想。 真寻旁边站着贯太郎。 "Everyone has worked hard." “啊贯贯,看看这个很红吗?” 八寻吧自己的工作成果拿给他看。 “不辛苦啊贯太郎!” 武泽挖苦道:“你知道自己差点捅娄子吗?” “啊?捅娄子?” “掏出气枪的时机啊。装火药的沙发和椅子都在背后,你到底怎么想的啊?” “啊,这一点我也觉得奇怪。在那时候掏气枪真的好吗?我是有点犹豫——不过老武给了我信号啊。” "I?" 反问了一句,武泽突然显出“啊”的表情,不过他立刻恢复了正常,催促大家说:“行了行了,这事回头再说。赶紧先逃。” 哈哈,八寻想。恐怕贯太郎犯错是因为武泽的缘故吧。贯太郎掏出气枪的信号是事先决定好的,那就是武泽伸出一只手抚摩自己的后脑勺。武泽和老铁两个人做生意的时候经常用这个做信号。一定是武泽在事务所无意识地做出了这个动作。他到现在才想起来吧。 “那,大家走吧。” 贯太郎满面堆笑。八寻在九〇二室送他们出门的时候,他还紧张得瑟瑟发抖。两个表情相比起来判若云泥。 “贯贯,不紧张了真好呀。” “哎,没紧张啊我。” “还说没有,别嘴硬啊。” 老铁一边向大楼出口走一边说:“汗都湿透了,脸上都滴下来了——很早以前,我和老武就在担心了。你这么紧张行不行什么的。” “啊,那不是紧张,是我害怕火药。” “火药?” “嗯,以前不是说过吗,小的时候,被大家扔炮仗欺负过,吓得连花火大会都不敢去。我是真的害怕火药。所以听说这次作战的时候,一直在后悔为什么当初要答应一起干。” 难怪贯太郎的样子那么奇怪。 “不过,不是很好吗?回过头去看,也没什么了不起嘛,火药这东西。八寻,到了夏天,一起去看花火吧。” 啪的一声,老铁一巴掌拍在贯太郎的屁股上。 “你小子,这种事情你倒是早说啊。我们换个办法就是了。不必这么战战兢兢用火药也行。” “我想克服害怕的东西啊。有了胆量,阳痿说不定也能治好吧,我想。” “这两个有关系吗?” "Ok." 哈哈哈,正在开怀大笑的时候—— 哐的一声,老铁和什么东西撞在一起。是某个人的身体。老铁走在最前面,五个人正要出大楼门厅的刹那,外面的人突然站在门口,拦住了去路。 “哎呀……啊,对不起,走得有点急了。” 捂住鼻子,老铁道歉说,但是对方毫无反应。八寻抬头看那张脸。是这栋楼的房客吗?个头很高,面无表情—— Boom.以此同时,钝钝的声音响起,老铁的身体弯曲着向后面飞去。脸朝下摔在玄关门厅的地上,手脚晚一步才落到地上。 “哎”的一声,老铁的鼻子里溢出许多血。鲜红的血滴到嘴唇上、流过面颊,滴滴答答浸湿了地上的瓷砖。 “果然很有趣啊。” 低头看着自己的拳头,男人发出低低的声音。“是”这个字的齿擦音特别刺耳。 “做了一场大生意,你们辛苦了。” 另一个声音响起。男人身后还有一个人。乌贼一样眼睛的小个子男人。 整理人向旁边的男人抬起头问:“火口先生,这些人怎么处理?”
