Naomi Tanizaki was curious about Qianye mentioned by Kunikida, and asked: "Mr. Kunikida, even if they are good friends, aren't you and Mr. Hanabukuro also good friends? Why do you feel that you are looking forward to being with Qianye more..."
"Sir, Mr. Qianye. Amamiya Qianye." Kunikida continued Naomi's words. He said proudly, "You want to ask why I value Qian Ye so much, right? The reason is very simple..."
He quickly walked towards Dazai, grabbed the other man's collar with familiarity, and swung it quickly like a swing, and swung it hard like a wet piece of cloth.
The familiar roar of a member of the Butei Club resounded in the room: "Of course it's because having you, a depraved and trouble-making partner, has made my life extremely difficult. I'm either cleaning up your mess, or... On the way to being teased by you. This kind of hellish days are happening every day! And Qianye, as a normal person, Qianye is the harbor that allows me to say goodbye to this abnormal life! It is good medicine! You know I don’t understand, you bastard bandage wasting device!!!”
Dazai let Kunikida sway like a noodle, and he let out a giggle: "Ara ala, Kunikida is very energetic today~ah~ harder, please shake my brain like this Broken and stirred into a ball, it can be regarded as a clean and refreshing suicide~~"
Kunikida: "..."
Kunikida: "Ah, you bastard——! Give me a little reflection, even if it's just a show!!!"
My expectations for you have been so low that I just have to show off! Isn't that enough? ! Do you still want to challenge my delicate brain? !
Everyone: "..."
Yosano still wanted to complain, but Ms. Haruno sharply pointed out: "There are no normal people in our detective agency." Especially those who are regular employees with supernatural powers.
Such a noisy daily routine is the work environment she is familiar with.
Everyone: "..." Well, there is no way to refute.
Tokyo.
Amamiya Qianye arrived at the bookstore he had agreed with Kakashi early, but the traffic conditions in Tokyo were good today, and he arrived seven minutes and twenty-three seconds earlier than he expected.
So, he used this time to buy an umbrella that was exactly the same as before. He carved his name on it with the Swiss knife he carried to show his ownership, and then entered the book cafe. He had excellent eyesight. Scanning the raised beams, inside the spacious room, you immediately saw a man sitting at a corner table, carefully tasting a stack of small cakes.
That is a man with a very strong sense of presence.
He is a thin man with a stern face. His excessively white skin color gives people an unhealthy and morbid feeling. Even when he is eating, his expression is as cold and serious as if he is performing official duties. It feels like hearing the offensive words from that mouth.
He was wearing ordinary-looking casual clothes. He was probably around 25 or 26 years old. He wore a light-colored peaked cap on his head. He seemed to be aware of this gaze and turned his head to look at Qian Ye.
Unexpectedly, the man stood up and said politely to Qian Ye, who was walking over: "Good day, Mr. Qian Ye."
Amamiya Qianye bowed slightly towards him: "It's an honor to meet you, Mr. Kakashi."
After sitting down and ordering a cup of American iced coffee, Qianye asked his doubts: "It's nineteen days ahead of my estimated time. Is there anything important?"
Jiajiazhi shook his head: "I just happened to be on vacation, so I came up here for a walk." The topic changed, "I also want to see if my boss can handle his duties well when I can't be on call."
Qian Ye feels that the latter should be the focus.
He nodded understandingly and said: "Occasionally, I have to let King Yama try to work independently. As expected of you, you are very considerate."
——It’s strange, I can’t tell who is the boss, you or King Yama.
That's right, after all, the man in front of you with the pseudonym Kagashi is actually the first assistant to the lord of hell, King Yama, Oni Deng... But in fact, if you understand the development history of hell a little, you will know that Oni Deng is the real hell. The mastermind behind the scenes.
Qianye heard the other party say with his own ears, "Compared to the nominal Lord of Hell, this kind of role hidden behind the scenes is more suitable for me to play freely"... words that make people think deeply.
Not wanting to dwell on such things that were far away from him, Qianye took out a work notebook and opened the latest page, which was written in a font that only ghosts could understand and that was exclusive to hell.
"Although your early arrival disrupted my plans, it's not a big problem. We have moved the plans to today." Qian Ye said.
Gui Deng said with appreciation: "You are indeed the future assistant I value. Your rigorous yet flexible work attitude is exactly what I urgently need."
Qian Ye pursed her lips and tried her best to ignore this sentence. She sent the note to the other party and said, "This is what was agreed. The wages given to your employees in the last mission have been reduced by mine." For travel expenses and subsidies, if you think it’s okay, I’ll pay in real money.”
The ghost lamp said: "No, I will deposit your share in the hell bank for you. You only need to pay the employees' wages in real world currency, and I will convert it into hell currency and give it to those ghosts."
Qian Ye had no objection and took out his mobile phone to transfer money into Gui Deng's account.
Because Ghost Lantern occasionally comes to the real world to inspect, he needs to use modern money, but he does not have the corresponding currency on hand. If he wants to use money, he needs to go through several procedures. Although the process is not troublesome, it still affects the efficiency.
After interacting with Qian Ye reciprocally, this situation was easily solved.
After confirming the amount on the phone, Gui Deng nodded with satisfaction. After the official business was settled, he started talking about unrelated things and said: "The reason why I chose this book cafe has something to do with work."
Qian Ye: "..."
He opened his mouth, and just as he was about to say goodbye, he heard a sharp scream, tables and chairs overturning, and the screams of the crowd.
Qian Ye, his movements stopped.
Gui Deng showed a smile that he thought was kind but was actually very dangerous in the eyes of outsiders: "I accept a ghost conveniently. He is a person with superpowers. I have arranged a suitable position for him in advance."
As far as the ghost lamp is concerned, superpowers = subordinates = tool ghosts, there is nothing wrong with that.
Qian Ye wanted to leave here, especially when he saw the screaming man lying straight on the ground, his face twisted and his pupils dilated, obviously looking like he couldn't be saved.
As the auxiliary officer of hell, Ghost Lantern can know the time of death of human beings. Although this death date is not fixed and changes at any time, it is obvious that the future employee he values will die according to the predetermined fate.
The ghost lamp will not interfere in human affairs. He is in a good mood and continues to attack his little cake, planning to drag the other party to hell after the ghost appears.
After death, the soul will leave the body, but it will take at least half an hour for the soul body to take shape. In other words, we still have to wait.
Qian Ye couldn't leave. The owner and clerk of the bookstore were trying to reassure the customers. They had already called the police. Before the police arrived, everything had to remain as it was. Naturally, none of the customers could leave.
Today is a working day, and there are not many customers in the bookstore, so the situation is easily controlled.
Tokyo is the central city in the country, and the police arrived very quickly. Qianye sat in his seat without even looking in the direction of the body.
He is not very curious and does not like to watch the excitement. He just wants to end the case as soon as possible.
If this was a premeditated murder, the murderer would definitely not be able to escape if the ghost lantern was there anyway.
The reason is very simple. Since the deceased is already Guideng's intended subordinate, then the deceased must want to avenge himself. In order to prevent the deceased from degenerating into an evil ghost due to murder, Guideng will definitely uphold justice for the other party and let the murderer accept the laws of this world. trial.
It doesn't matter even if the murderer goes free. The debts you owe during life must be repaid after death. If the two cannot offset each other, then accept the punishment... If you don't want to accept it, it depends on whether you can compete for a job and use work to pay for your sins.
However... this rule does not apply to the dead whose souls are so dark that they cannot be saved.
Because of his supernatural powers, Qian Ye got to know Gui Deng and learned a lot of inside information... But in fact, if he had a choice, he didn't want to know.
It is not a good thing to know that there is a hell after death and some basic rules of hell.
Let’s not talk about other things. Just the fact that Ichijo has to work and eat even though he is a ghost is enough to shatter Qianye’s outlook on life.
In order to survive, he worked hard to make money. Even if you die, you still have to work and make money. too difficult.
In particular, Gui Deng was very satisfied with his ability and expressed countless times that he wanted to be his assistant after death... Of course Qianye could refuse. People like him who lived peacefully and peacefully had no crimes and could be reincarnated directly after death.
But... reincarnation is random, whether it will be good or bad cannot be predicted. But if you have enough hell currency, you can buy yourself a good pregnancy.
... Damn it, money is so easy to use in hell. Capital really goes deep into every aspect.
