On the other side, leave the Mori Detective Agency.
Ye Gengyi did not return to 2-chome, but came to the shopping street to buy coffee.
Stop and go along the way to make sure no one is following you.
He dialed Belmode's phone number.
…
after an hour.
The two came to a small courtyard covered with weeds outside the city of Miwa Town.
It was late spring and early summer, and the breeze blew through the lush treetops surrounding the house.
Ye Geng turned over some red bricks beside the flower pond and found the key to the door as expected.
With a harsh 'squeak' sound, the wooden door opened.
The two of them stood in front of the entrance, looking at the shabby, damaged, or almost rotten furniture and ornaments. They hesitated for a moment and gave up the idea of going in.
"Go back to the yard."
Ye Gengyi blurred the footprints in the dust, locked the door and put the key back to its original place.
There are 7 or 8 uninhabited huts nearby, but I think they are all like this bungalow. Because they have been unoccupied for a long time, a lot of mold and dust have accumulated inside.
Simply put, the two of them were not here for tourism, so there was no need to worry about finding a clean and tidy environment.
Ye Gengyi looked around and said:
"Today is a working day. As long as our luck is not too bad, no one will bump into us by chance."
...As for who is the worst person when you bump into someone, you can only analyze it based on the specific situation.
"Hmph, you invited me to a place like this in broad daylight. Little Tianjiu, you've learned a lot."
On the surface, Belmode was smiling and making bad jokes, but in fact, he was very wary, especially the place Ye Gengyi mentioned on the phone when he asked her to meet:
...Mori Detective Agency.
"If you think you have plenty of time, I wouldn't mind changing to another place." Ye Gengyi said.
"Humph~ You are still so boring..."
Belmod waved his hands and looked like he was defeated by you:
"I surrender. Tell me, why did you come to me?"
"I just went to the Maori Detective Agency."
Ye Gengzhi said bluntly:
"Then a bug was found on their third floor. Was it you who installed it?"
Bug?
A trace of astonishment flashed across Belmod's expression, and after frowning slightly, he tried:
"Why do you ask that? I've been busy looking for traces of Keir recently, and I don't have time to investigate any famous detectives."
"oh?"
Ye Gengyi said calmly:
"Then you mean...I found the wrong person?"
As he said that, he took out his mobile phone:
"Although it is troublesome to deal with a famous detective, it is not that troublesome."
Belmod only felt that Ye Gengyi's expression at this moment was even colder than the cold wind of winter.
She tried her best to calm down her mood, but the movement of raising her hand to stop her still showed a little bit of impatience:
"Wait a minute! You called me specifically to come over, did you just want to say this?"
"I thought it was you."
Ye Gengyi explained calmly, paused slightly with his fingers pressing the keys, and said:
"If not, then it's just Gin... I didn't expect him to do such a boring thing."
Gin? What's going on, why is it related to that person again...
The corners of Belmod's eyes twitched. This kind of loss of control in her facial expression was something that rarely happened to her, a Thousand-Faced Witch who was good at disguise.
"Okay, I did go to the famous detective's office yesterday to investigate, but what does this have to do with the bug you mentioned?"
"How do you prove it?" Ye Gengyi asked.
"Ah?" Belmod was stunned.
...Isn’t it okay to admit it to yourself?
"You said before that you didn't have time to investigate the famous detective, and now you said that you went to the office to investigate yesterday..."
Ye Gengyi said seriously:
"If you don't prove it, how will I know if you are deliberately delaying my time by saying this?"
"I, alas..."
Belmod suddenly felt like he was being choked. He sighed and thought about the details of the conversation between the two. After confirming that there was no trap, he took out his phone and sent an email to Ye Gengyi, saying:
"Look at it for yourself. There are a total of 63 photos in it, 14 of which are the internal layout of the office and the surrounding street maps. These are the results of my investigation of the famous detective. Combined with the files I borrowed at the Metropolitan Police Department last time , it can be basically concluded that he is not secretly investigating the organization, nor does he have anything to do with the FBI..."
Ye Gengyi quickly started browsing from the first photo.
Although it was expected that Bellmode would not deliberately choose some innocuous content, after seeing that nearly three-quarters of the remaining 49 power of attorney letters were murder cases, he still couldn't help but have an idea...
By providing so many 'records', is Belmod trying to absorb the God of Plague into the organization?
"You don't look too surprised~"
Belmode asked at the right time, and his tone returned to its slightly lazy and charming tone:
"I was shocked. It turns out that this famous detective is really not very lucky."
"Oh, I quite agree with this."
Ye Gengyi nodded slightly:
"Almost all the requests we encountered were murder cases, and in the end the criminal was successfully arrested by the police. If a detective with such a sense of justice is investigating the organization, it is impossible not to leave any traces."
"Humph~ It seems that we have reached the same conclusion."
Belmode chuckled:
"So, can you elaborate now, about the bug."
Ye Gengyi felt that he had laid enough groundwork and said directly:
"Last night, Moori Kogoro's estranged wife, Eri, called me and mentioned helping her take care of the cat..."
cat?
Belmode blinked suspiciously and continued to listen without interrupting.
Until Ye Gengyi mentioned the bug, his calm tone once again became a bit colder:
"What a coincidence. It happened that Fei Yingli received the commission, and I happened to go to the detective agency, and the bug happened to be there... So the next step, will the bug happen to be discovered by the famous detective, and then I will... Are you naturally included in the suspect list?"
He paused, pointed to his arm, and asked in a asking tone:
"You said...since I can't find the guy who made such a bad joke, shouldn't I just deal with the people who might find out my identity?"
So that's it, it turns out that ie is worried about this...
Only then did Belmode finally understand the origin of Ye Gengyi's anger. While he was depressed, a figure appeared in his mind.
However, she didn't think too much, lest a moment's hesitation cause Ye Gengyi to misunderstand what trick she was playing, and hurriedly explained:
"Ie, even if I say this now, you may not believe it, but the person who installed that bug is really not me..."
