"I've heard that before,"
Gu Xing handed the coffee in front of Shengzi,
"You joined the weird training class after graduating from high school. After the training, you followed the widow investigator——
All my original wishes have come true. "
Satomi immediately thought of a few years ago, not long after her grandma passed away.
In other words, when the black hole just appeared in the sky above Lidu, she was being chased by Yoshino all day long and was so embarrassed that she could not survive, trying to obtain extraordinary power from the black hole.
Now, after experiencing the cruel training of the weird training class, she knows that any idea of placing her hopes on others or having a miracle from the sky is just a fairy tale. The most reliable thing is her own tenacity and persistence.
"It's not even close,"
Satomi smiled and said: "I'm just a little internship assistant. Who did you hear about me from?"
Gu Xing was silent for a moment and replied, "Miss Xijing Shengzi told me."
"It turns out to be Senior Saint Son,"
Rimi nodded and looked directly at Gu Xing,
"After I separated from you that year, my landlord told me that a kind-hearted person who refused to be named paid my rent for half a year. After that, he secretly paid the rent for me several times until I was employed at the police headquarters. Come down——
What I'm trying to say is that if it weren't for his funding, I would have had no chance of being admitted to the eccentric training class. I have always wanted to find him and express my gratitude in person. Unfortunately, after such a long time, there was no news from him. "
Gu Xing: "Since we are helping anonymously, he probably has his own reasons. If he wants to see you, he will come to you sooner or later."
"That's true," Rimi said with a smile, "Then I will wait patiently for the day when he is willing to see me."
"I remember,"
Gu Xing picked up the coffee in front of him, "You had heard of Weirdness and Investigators back then. I didn't know anything about them at that time - you never told me how you knew about them."
"Weird things happened at school,"
Satomi also picked up the cup and looked at the bottom of the cup through the dark coffee.
"I happened to be a witness and almost died in the bizarre incident. After the incident, they erased everyone's memory, and they also tried to erase mine... but strangely, I still retained all the memories of that incident."
"So you slipped through the cracks?"
"It's better to say he's a lucky guy."
"Why did you keep it a secret from me back then?"
"I was still young at the time," Satomi said, "I always thought this was a big deal, and I was also worried that if this incident spread, they would erase my memory again."
"Oh, even I can't rest assured."
"Haha, in my eyes you were still a bad policeman who threw girls to the ground."
"Hey, I'm not a few years older than you... I mean it."
At this point, the two looked at each other and smiled.
The memories of that time came to mind, but the people were different.
"And you,"
Satomi asked: "How did you become a private detective? Although you never said it, I always felt that you liked the police profession very much at that time. I have heard people tell your stories, but I always felt that it was not true enough, like It's just like the legends told by adults when I was young...I want to hear it told by you yourself."
"Do you really want to hear it? It's very long."
"It just so happens that I have a lot of time today."
Gu Xing told a long story, and Li Mei listened carefully without missing a word.
It took the two of them more than a dozen cups of coffee to finish telling the story.
When leaving, Li Mei asked Gu Xing: "Actually, I come here this time and want to ask you something."
"Speaking."
"Do you remember my grandma?"
"certainly."
"I told you at that time," Satomi said: "The night Yoshino died, my grandma's ghost returned to my house and stayed with me for a long time. But suddenly one day she disappeared, and I kept looking for her. "
"You want to ask me if I have any news about her."
"You don't believe in ghosts, do you?"
"Since such outrageous monsters as grotesques exist, ghosts are not surprising."
"My grandma..."
"Sorry." Gu Xing's face was expressionless, and he glanced at the corner of the living room with his peripheral vision. There was nothing there.
"So,"
Satomi then asked, "You are a private detective, can you accept the commission to find missing ghosts?"
