The symbol of money seemed to appear in Maori Kogoro's eyes: "Don't worry, leave this mission to me, the famous detective Maori Kogoro!" That's 30 yen. An average office worker would have to work for two years to earn that kind of salary, and they still have to pay taxes. The special department does not have to pay taxes, and its job is to monitor the coffee shop on the first floor. Not only is the work easy, but the income is also stable, and it can connect with Luo Shu. This deal is worth it! "Then I will wait patiently for Mr. Maori's performance." Seeing Maori Kogoro accept the task, Luo Shu smiled and encouraged him a few words, then rolled down the car window and said: "Yika-cho is not far from Nerima. Let's go home and take a rest and have lunch. After three hours, we'll go to the antique coffee shop to get some information." "In that case, how about going to the supermarket to buy food?" "Since the lovely Miss Kisara said so, let's go~"
"You actually called me cute or something, what a fool, Shu-kun~" Accompanied by Mu Geng's soft murmurs, the car slowly drove away from the mountain road and carried Luo Shu towards the city. Chapter 57 Luo Shu: I need a test subject (new toy) At 1pm. Inside the antique coffee shop there is a sign saying "Closed Today" hanging at the door. "What about the store manager?" Kirishima Touka asked somewhat absentmindedly while sitting at the bar. "I'm sorting out the documents at my residence." The one who responded to Kirishima Touka was a handsome clerk with short silver hair. He is Renji Shiho, the uncle of Touka Kirishima and a clerk at the Antique Coffee Shop. "Does the store manager really intend to hand over the information?" The person who spoke was a male clerk named "Gu Jian Yuan'er" with brown hair and a big nose and a suit hairstyle. While wiping the tables and chairs in the coffee shop, he said: "According to what you said, that information is to be handed over to the authorities to be used to eliminate ghouls, right?" "Although my IQ is not high, but asking us to hand in the information and destroy ourselves... doesn't this sound a bit unreliable?" When Gu Jianyuan said this, his face was full of worry. "After the data is handed in and the ghouls are eliminated, will the rest of us really be safe?" "Who knows about this kind of thing." Kirishima Touka crushed the glass next to her hand.
With a snap, she looked at her palm without any scratches and said: "If I do what that monster says, both the store manager and us will be killed." "Touka..." Renji Shigao looked at Touka Kirishima with concern, who still had fear on her face. Although it is not known what happened to the niece and Xuan Rumi after they chased the manager out, it is obvious that in Kirishima Touka's eyes, the enemy is a monster that even the entire antique coffee shop cannot defeat. If Kirishima Touka's opinion alone is not enough to explain anything, then the actions of Yoshimura Kozen, who is still sorting out the information, and Irimi Xuan, who is helping him, are enough to show the strength of the enemy. "I thought I would have a better life after traveling to another world, but in the end, I stepped into a deep pit?" Sifang Lianshi sighed softly, raised his head, and shook his head at Gujian Yuaner who looked worried. "Oh." Yuan'er sighed, picked up the rag and wiped the table again, which she had wiped several times. The atmosphere in the store became tense. Know after 15 minutes. The shop door opened with the sound of tinkling wind chimes. "Sorry, the cafe is closed today." Kirishima Touka said subconsciously, and then she heard a male voice that seemed to be engraved in her DNA: "Give me a whipped coconut latte, five percent sugar." Hearing this voice, Kirishima Touka's face froze. She froze and sat motionless in the high chair. However, the sound of "thump, thump!" footsteps kept echoing in her ears. Soon, the high chair next to it was pulled away. A figure sat down next to Kirishima Touka and said to Shikata Ren, who was standing in front of the bar with a serious expression: “Can this latte be made?” "...Can." Sifang Lianshi was silent for a moment, then nodded. From the stiff posture of Kirishima Touka next to her, Shifang Renshi understood that the man in front of him was the 'real boss'. "Is this the man who defeated Touka and Irami in an instant and toyed with the store manager during the battle?" While getting the ingredients to make raw coconut latte, Sifang Lianshi looked at Luo Shu as calmly as possible. His face was very childish, probably around 18 years old. Although he looked good, his eyes were vague and he didn't look like someone who had experienced many ups and downs. There aren't any calluses on his hands, so he doesn't look like someone who's good at fighting, and he probably hasn't practiced with firearms much. Could such a person really be the kind of strong person that even the store manager is helpless against?
Just when Sifang Lianshi was puzzled, Luo Shu held his chin with one hand and said: "Where is Yoshimura Gongshan?" "I had a hard time getting Kisara to stay home and wait for me to come back, under the pretext of 'having a celebration dinner tonight'. If he doesn't provide timely intelligence, I'll be in trouble." After hearing what Luo Shu said, Kirishima Touka did not move. At this time, Gu Jianyuan, who was sitting next to him, answered: (bhde) "The store manager is sorting out documents at his residence, and Irimi is helping. He has been gone for almost 2 hours. Please wait a moment." Hearing what Gu Jianyuan'er said, Luo Shu turned his head slightly and glanced at the man with a flashy hairstyle but a very honest face. "SS-rank ghoul 'Magic Ape'?" "...It's me." Gu Jian Yuan'er had never expected that Luo Shu would know her, so she was a step slow. "Oh~~" Luo Shu stretched out his tone, then turned his head and looked at Shifang Renshi and said: "So you are the SS-level ghoul 'Crow' Shifang Renshi?" Sifang Lianshi nodded slightly and placed a cup of brewed raw coconut latte in front of Luo Shu: "Please use." Luo Shu picked up the raw coconut latte, took a sip, savored the sweetness of the coconut, and said: "Antique ghouls, are you the only ones right now?" Sifang Lianshi cleaned the tools for making latte, and then explained: "Including the store manager and Irimi, there are five of us in total. The rest are some of the ghouls we shelter, but they are all running other businesses." Luo Shu nodded upon seeing this, and then said, "The whitelist cannot have too many people." Sifang Lianshi paused after hearing this, but said nothing. Kirishima Touka, who was standing by, felt even more depressed after hearing this. "The whitelist cannot be too large. Does that mean there cannot be too few dead ghouls?" Everyone else came to kill her, but she could only sit there helplessly. Once again, Kirishima Touka realized her own powerlessness. Halfway through my whipped coconut latte, the door opened again. It was Yoshimura Kousen and Ru Jianxuan, who were wearing work clothes, who pushed the door open. "Are you here already?" Fangcun Gongshan, who was holding a laptop, glanced at Luo Shu who was sitting at the bar, was surprised for a moment, and then walked straight over. "It's pretty efficient." Luo Shu turned around, leaned against the bar, and stretched out his hand to Fangcun Gongshan: "Give me the thing." Upon hearing this, Fangcun Gongshan calmly handed over the laptop in his hand and said: "Most of the content in this document is based on my personal research and understanding. If there are any errors, I can only apologize."
"It doesn't matter. I didn't expect to get very complete information from you." Luo Shu opened the laptop. It seemed that because Fangcun Gongshan was still busy entering information, the computer was not closed, so he could use it directly after opening it. Luo Shu inserted the USB drive he brought with him into the computer, then clicked on the folder on the desktop that had "Ghoul Information" written on it, and began to read it at a glance. Fangcun Gongshan collected a lot of information. What ghoul organizations originally existed in the 23 districts of Tokyo, what possible areas of activities they might have after traveling through time, who were the leaders of the organizations, and what were their characteristics. Although these data do not pinpoint a specific ghoul or identity, they at least contain appearance data and personal strength assessments. Among all the ghoul organizations, the Bronze Tree and the V Organization are the ones that are described the most. And the most important thing is that within the Bronze Tree, a cadre named Aite was included in the white list by Fangcun Gongshan. This is also the only white list within the Bronze Tree. The rest of the whitelist consisted mostly of weak ghouls. Apparently, they were all ghouls that Yoshimura Kozen protected and considered "harmless". As the information came into view, Luo Shu felt that the corresponding search ability of the "Encyclopedia of Mysticism" had been greatly enhanced. Such a change made Luo Shu's mouth curl up slightly. The predecessor of the 'Encyclopedia of Mysticism' was the crystallization of knowledge and power that Luo Shu stripped from the demon god Vashak. Its ability is to obtain the "information" that the holder wants from the "world" through divination and information reasoning. Although this ability is powerful, it also has some flaws. That is, the more comprehensive Luo Shu's understanding of the target's information is, the more accurate the answer given by the Encyclopedia of Mysticism will be. The information between the two does not need to be equal, but there is a leverage. For example, if Luo Shu knows 10 pieces of information about Kirishima Touka, he can search for 100 pieces of information from the Encyclopedia of Mysticism. Therefore, the more Luo Shu knows about Kirishima Touka, the more information the Encyclopedia of Mysticism can reveal, and he may even know her better than Kirishima Touka herself. The more you know, the more powerful you are. This is Luo Shu's impression of the 'power of knowledge'. Therefore, from the very beginning, the ghoul information in Yoshimura Kousen's hands was just a data amplifier in Luo Shu's eyes. He could use the information in his hand and the power of the Encyclopedia of Mysticism to learn more about the information he wanted. For example, the total number of ghouls, the residences, abilities and weaknesses of each high-danger ghoul, the evil deeds of each ghoul organization, this information is unclear to Yoshimura Kozen, but Luo Shu can. At least, Luo Shu, who possesses the encyclopedia of mysticism transformed by the power of knowledge, can. After scanning the information, Luo Shu tapped the keyless area of the laptop with his index finger and squinted his eyes and said: "There's not much information about the V organization... You've been a scavenger for them for so long, but you don't know much about them? “It’s embarrassing, but it’s true.” Yoshimura Kozen sighed. He himself knew only a little about the V Organization, a powerful organization lurking among the ghouls. Perhaps his daughter Fangcun Aite knows more, but because Fangcun Gongshan gave the young Fangcun Aite to others to raise in order to protect her, the relationship between the father and daughter now is not much different from that of strangers.
"As far as I know, there is no trace of any V Organization members at the moment. Although I have received some eyewitness intelligence from other ghouls, I do not have any detailed information." Fangcun Gongshan said this and smiled bitterly: "I don't even know what they are doing now after traveling through the world." "Everyone is busy taking exams." Fangcun Gongshan was stunned for a moment, then looked up at Luo Shu who was typing quickly on the keyboard and modifying the data. "You mean the exam? Why?"
