Jiang Xia always felt that if Okiya Subaru and Akai Shuichi came into contact, he would not be there.
So rather than "relying on transmitters and bugs to intercept intelligence," it is more likely that those surveillance props will be quietly disposed of by Shuichi Akai. If you want to continue tracking, you will have to wait for the next mission.
…In short, it’s best to recycle those little things in time before they are discovered.
——Although Subaru Okiya doesn’t have the habit of checking himself all the time, that’s because no one has had close contact with him in the past few days. And the only one who was close enough to quietly place a bug on him was one
A cat passing by occasionally.
In this case, if the transmitter on Subaru Okiya is discovered, the cat may be suspected by some cautious and intuitive people... This is not a good thing. After all, all the vests currently combined will
Only cats are the most suitable for tracking - they don't even have to hide their body shape. If they meet someone who is friendly to cats, they don't have to walk hard by themselves, and they can just lie on the person's shoulder and take a ride.
When they first met, Jiang Xia once wanted to use a cat to find Okiya Subaru's residence.
It's a pity that at that time, Subaru Okiya was infected by the professionalism of his new boss and became too dedicated. He stayed near the mission target and never left, even staying in a hotel... Now that the mission is over, he will finally return to his hometown.
…
The taxi soon arrived at Miwa Town.
After sending the two children away, Jiang Xia returned home.
Then he went in through the front door and slipped out through the back door, ready to follow.
…
Cupido Town.
In the coffee shop next to Miguanyi's family.
Although it is already dark, there is still some time before the store closes.
Sitting in the corner seat, Okiya Subaru was typing his paper against the clock with a cup of steaming coffee in his hand.
You are most productive when you take a break from your busy schedule.
——In the past few days, Subaru Okiya has been prioritizing Usa's tasks. Compared with the life threat that hangs over his head at all times, the paper has become the lovable "idle"... This comparison is so
It is so strong that even now, even if Uzo's task has been completed, as long as he sits in this seat in the cafe, Okiya Subaru can still feel the happiness he felt when writing the paper a few days ago, and his efficiency is much higher than usual.
few.
...Of course, this was just one of the reasons why he didn't leave immediately.
Another reason is that the police are still at the construction site and dealing with the follow-up issues with Mikananyi's family.
——Since this matter is not yet completely over, Subaru Okiya feels that he needs to keep an eye on it until the last moment to prevent any accidents. He has always been a cautious person.
…
Several hours passed.
When the coffee shop was about to close, the police finally retreated.
Okiya Subaru looked at the situation over there from a distance, and his half-suspended heart finally fell to the ground.
He took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Uzuo: [Yiichi Watanuki's deeds have been exposed and he has been arrested].
Not long after, the phone rang.
Okiya Subaru quickly clicked on it to check, and found that the other person only replied:
[good]
"..."
Okiya Subaru read this simple word several times, but it was still difficult to figure out Usa's true tone and mood.
Fortunately, one thing is certain.
——The mission finally ended successfully...
Subaru Okiya leaned back in his chair, took a sip of coffee, breathed out slowly, and felt like an invisible burden had been lifted off his shoulders.
He put away his computer and prepared to go home.
As soon as I walked to the door of the store, out of the corner of my eye, I saw something stepping on the billboard next to me.
This time, Subaru Okiya was much calmer.
He turned around and looked over, and sure enough he saw a familiar cat on dark clouds and snow.
There was no cat tag on this cat's neck, like a free cat that claimed the neighborhood as its territory. At this time, the two sides looked at each other, and the cat shook its tail as usual, as if to say hello to him.
Okiya Subaru nodded to the cat in a good mood.
In the past two days, Subaru Okiya often saw this cat. Sometimes the cat would sneak into the cafe and lie down next to his seat, staring at his mobile phone or computer screen, as if he had the highest IQ among cats and wanted to compete with humans.
The look of being together.
That cafe is not a cat cafe. Logically speaking, pets are not allowed in, but a cat like this walks quietly and is very good at hiding. I guess as long as no customers report it, it can stay in the cafe safely.
in the hall.
Okiya Subaru didn't become the reporter - he didn't hate cats, and he was under a lot of pressure these past two days. There was an elusive cat next to him, which could be used to relieve stress.
However, today is the last time we meet. After the mission is completed, there is no need for him to continue coming here.
Okiya Subaru: "..." Thinking about it this way, I'm still a little bit reluctant to give up... Hiss, in fact, when you need to make up for your thesis in the future, you can definitely come to this store to sit down. On the one hand, it can improve efficiency, and on the other hand, if
Jiang Xia really felt that "Okiya Subaru" was suspicious because of today's incident, so if he showed up more in this area, wouldn't it increase the suspicion that "Okiya Subaru used to frequent this place, but accidentally discovered the body"?
a possibility.
…
Okiya Subaru thought as he walked towards the parking lot.
Then soon, as he was preparing to go home, he suddenly discovered that he was not the only one who felt reluctant to leave.
——The black cat with white paws actually followed him.
The moment he opened the car door, he jumped into the car very naturally, and then lay down comfortably on the passenger seat, as if he wanted to take a ride.
Seeing that Okiya Subaru froze, he turned his head and glanced, as if he was urging him dissatisfied.
Okiya Subaru: "...?"
……What's the meaning?
Is this cat dependent on him?
...Haha, don't you think that he seems to be a good-tempered human being who would randomly pick up strange cats and take them home.
…
five minutes later.
Okiya Subaru drove the car and walked on the way home.
Lying on the passenger seat was a yawning Wuyun walking in the snow.
"..." Subaru Okiya pushed up his glasses silently.
...He really won't pick up a strange cat and bring it home. He is not such a casual person.
But after so many days, this cat has become quite close to me. Judging from the frequency with which stray cats meet people, it can definitely be regarded as a familiar cat... In addition, it is rare to meet a cat that is so close to people. Since I am about to hug a cat,
If you leave your hometown with the help of the FBI, you can take the cat you picked up from your hometown with you to relieve your homesickness...
Next to him, Jiang Xia did not study Okiya Subaru's complicated mood.
What he originally thought was that if Subaru Okiya could accept a ride with a cat, he would follow him directly.
If that doesn't work, just take advantage of Okiya Subaru's unpreparedness, spread it out into a cat cake, and hide it in any part of the car. Anyway, if you follow it, you'll be done.
…
As expected, the car did not drive to the "Tokuma Manor" where "Okiya Subaru" lived in the original world line.
Instead, we drove through the city center and drove to Toei Town - not far from Toto University, right between the university and the bustling downtown, and it is very convenient to go to both sides.
