At noon, in a cafe in Ginza, Tokyo …
Li Bencheng drank a glass of iced juice and said to Zhao Yu, "I think … I should be on guard … Your friend is not very reliable!"
"Okay, stop messing around!" Zhao Yu said. "Think about it. This can't be a trap at all!"
"You don't know your opponent," Li Bencheng said. "My style is to be foolproof!"
"Save your energy, old man." Zhao Yu swallowed the cake in his mouth and said, "Think about it. If the successor wanted to get rid of me in Tokyo, why would he make up such a nonsensical reason?"
He then said, "He went through a lot of trouble to ask Juliet to bring us a message. Oh, no, to bring me a message. If it was just to get rid of me, why would he talk so much nonsense?
He could have just asked Senior Tuo Qiang to fight me to the death.
"Why did he have to resort to so many tricks? Why did he threaten me with so many photos and conditions?"
"So …" Li Bencheng suppressed his uneasiness and said to Zhao Yu, "Do you really think that the successor really wants you to help him solve this case?
"Don't you think it sounds ridiculous?"
"D * mn, you even know how to talk nonsense?" Zhao Yu was surprised. "Whether he's talking nonsense or not, the truth is right in front of us!"
"It's an ordinary case, and it happened in the faraway Tokyo!" Li Bencheng was still suspicious. "The successor is so powerful. Why did they choose you?"
"No, this is not an ordinary case. A beautiful girl was killed! It's a murder! " Zhao Yu corrected. "As a detective with a conscience, I must find out the truth and seek justice for the victim."
"Justice? You're taking it for granted!" Li Bencheng shook his head. "If you're wrong, then we are probably on the verge of death now!
Maybe there is already a sniper aiming at our foreheads! "
Zhao Yu pointed to the restaurant. "We're not near the window, so how could there be a sniper aiming at us? Don't be like this, okay?
I've said it before. I'll give you a certificate, so you can go home and reunite with your son.
"You're so paranoid. You're delaying my work!"
"I've said it before, I'm not an ungrateful villain. You've saved me twice, I must return it to you!" Li Bencheng vowed.
"I've also said that I'm a person of high morals. I saved you because I'm merciful, and I don't ask for anything in return!
"Of course, if you really feel bad about it," Zhao Yu said. "You can give me one or two hundred million. I won't refuse!"
"Hahaha …" Li Bencheng was so angry that he laughed out loud. "You guys have an old saying, 'If you want money, you don't have it. If you want life, you have it!"
"F * ck you!" Zhao Yu looked at the King of Agents in disdain, then turned his gaze to the window, waiting for someone to arrive.
In fact, Li Bencheng's worries were not unreasonable, but in Zhao Yu's opinion, the successor would never mention such a case for no reason!
He believed that the murder of a young girl in Tokyo a few decades ago must have some kind of connection with the successor!
By solving this case, he might be able to find out the identity of the successor and better understand the criminal empire that Long Di had built!
Of course, this was not the only way, but in Zhao Yu's opinion, it was the safest way.
Before making the decision to go to Tokyo, he had analyzed the situation deeply.
Yes, with his magical equipment, it was not difficult for him to save Amelora. However, even if he managed to save Amelora, it would not be of much use in the grand scheme of things. Instead, it would agitate the enemy and make them act even more crazily!
Zhao Yu clearly knew that it was not a problem for him to protect himself, but in the face of the enemy's indiscriminate attacks, he was powerless!
Once the successor was completely angered, the two sides would really go to war. His family, friends, and colleagues would all be in great danger!
At that time, the situation would inevitably get out of control, and he would fall into a passive position. If he did that, it would obviously be disadvantageous to himself and the Secret Service.
So, after calm consideration, Zhao Yu finally decided to come to Tokyo and try to solve this unsolved case. He wanted to see what the mysterious successor was up to!
Just as Zhao Yu and Li Bencheng were discussing, the person that Zhao Yu was waiting for finally appeared.
A short woman walked in from the coffee shop's main entrance. The woman was holding a kraft paper portfolio in her arms. She wore large sunglasses on her face and a sunhat on her head, completely covering her face.
This person was none other than the female reporter that Zhao Yu had met when he was investigating the Black Pupil Case in Seoul, Yangshan Masako!
Because they had greeted each other before, Masako came to Zhao Yu in a very low-key manner and whispered, "Oh my god, it's really you!
I didn't expect that we would meet in this way. This is … "She pointed to Li Bencheng next to her.
"Oh," Zhao Yu said casually. "This is my assistant. You can call him Old Li!"
"Hello, my name is Yangshan Masako. Nice to meet you!" Miss Masako greeted him politely.
"Nonsense!" Li Bencheng returned the greeting in Japanese.
"Zhao-san," Yangshan Masako said in fluent Chinese. "Did you come here for the murder of the young girl?
This case … Although the murderer has not been found yet, for Tokyo, it is just a very ordinary case.
"You … Do you have any important clues?"
"Ms. Masako, first of all, thank you for your help!" Zhao Yu said solemnly. "I promise that after I find out everything, I will give you exclusive information about this case.
But, before we find out everything, I hope that you can help us keep it a secret! "
"I understand. Don't worry! It's not our first time working together, "Masako said." I'll listen to you, Detective Zhao! "
Then, she opened the kraft paper portfolio and took out the documents inside.
"Although this is just an ordinary unsolved case," Yangshan Masako said sincerely. "If Detective Zhao can find out the truth and catch the murderer, it will be considered as fulfilling the wish of the victim's family!
This is a great thing. Even if there is no reward, I will fully support you! "
"Then, thank you in advance!"
Zhao Yu said as he opened the file to check it out. When he opened it, he was dumbfounded. The file was, of course, written in Japanese, and he could not understand it at all.
"Let me … Let me give you a general introduction!" Yangshan Masako saw Zhao Yu's embarrassment and quickly said, "This case happened in 1994. It was summer, the season when the sunflowers were in full bloom!"
"Sunflowers …" Zhao Yu asked. "Are they sunflowers?"
"Yes, we prefer to call them sunflowers here," Yangshan Masako continued. "The body was found by an old farmer who was fertilizing the sunflowers. When it was found, the body had already been there for some time.
"In midsummer, the air was humid, so the body decomposed quickly," Yangshan Masako said. "Later, after identification, the deceased was identified as a 23-year-old girl named Pingcheng Xinjia!
"The murderer's method of committing the crime was simple and crude," Yangshan Masako said. "The murderer first strangled the girl, then dragged her to the sunflower field and cut the girl's wrist with a knife, causing the girl to bleed to death.
After she died, the murderer also cut off one of her ears … "
Listening to Masako's introduction, Zhao Yu saw the victim's photo in the file. There were X-shaped wounds on both of the victim's wrists.
