Chapter 170 Establishment of Gu's Ghost Story Detective Agency
Bai Niao tried his best to persuade Gu Xing to stay, and his persuasion was extremely sincere, but in the end it failed to shake Gu Xing's belief in leaving.
"Seriously,"
Bai Niao accepted the resignation letter, looked at Gu Xing and smiled bitterly: "I'm very optimistic about you."
On the night when Gu Xing resigned, Bai Niao organized a farewell dinner for him, and everyone drank a lot.
"You bastard,"
Anda sat next to Gu Xing, beating and scolding him, patting him on the back and shoulders.
"Are you just going to leave your dearest friend like this?"
"Gu Xingjun,"
The drunken Holy Son came to Gu Xing's side and said with a silly smile:
"From now on, you are no longer a policeman. It is your turn to envy me."
This kind of separate dinner often does not have a second or third party, otherwise the separation will not have a separate atmosphere.
When the dinner party ended, Gu Xing activated all the weirdos under his command to ensure that every colleague could go home safely.
Two days after resigning, Gu Xing had not decided what industry he should pursue next.
He just has three goals that require persistent efforts -
First, find the enemy and retrieve the small hole.
Second, find the owner of the mysterious box and determine whether he is an enemy.
Third, find the exit and send him to hell.
There are currently no clear clues about the three incidents, so we can only continue to investigate them relentlessly.
One night before resigning, Gu Xing took advantage of the absence of everyone in the criminal department and secretly copied all the case files of Gui Yingying. He also copied many case files of unsolved murder cases, hoping to help him with his next step.
plan.
Just when he was still unclear about his future career plan, Ye Ying, a weird investigator from Dongdu, came to his door with detective answers.
"I want to know what happened to that weird taxi, preferably in some detail."
The answer is straight to the point.
This is also the main purpose of the answer coming to Dongdu - to investigate the faceless man who appeared in the taxi and was suspected of being disguised.
The answer should go directly to the Bizarre Investigation Section of the Lido Police Headquarters to obtain information, but as a semi-official detective from Dongdu who has maintained long-term cooperation with the Dongdu Metropolitan Police Department, the answer is not popular in the city's police system.
.
The Lidu Weird Investigation Section adopts the "three no's" principle of no support, no cooperation, and no openness to the investigation requests for answers.
Of course, the investigation will not end here. If the answer would give up the pursuit of the answer easily, then the code name of the answer would not be so persistently determined as the answer.
The answer was to take the victim route and understand the situation with the family members of those who were missing at the time. Of course, including the police officers from the Jing’an Police Department who had experienced the bizarre taxi incident. However, the results were minimal——
Almost everyone has had their weird memories erased, and it is believed that the death of their family members was due to traffic accidents, kidnapping by robbers, accidental drowning, or depression and suicide.
In short, all deaths are the inevitable result of certain habits accumulated over time during the lifetime of the missing person.
A person who likes to swim drowns in the end, a driver who is often tired drives his car under a bridge, a rich man is kidnapped by robbers, and a patient with depression takes sleeping pills. Everything is logical and reasonable.
As the only survivor who has experienced the bizarre taxi incident and retained the memory of that time, it is reasonable for Gu Xing to be approached by the answer.
"I remember that the first colleague who was targeted by a taxi was Hidero Terai..."
"Finally, it was found out that the reason why everyone was targeted by the taxi killing rules was probably Tetsuo..."
In Gu Xing's mind, there was no power struggle between the East Police Department and the National Police Department, nor was there a territorial dispute between the East Police Department and the Lidu Police Headquarters.
He just instinctively felt that the strange faceless detective in front of him seemed to be a very difficult character, so he simply told the story of what happened to everyone in the criminal class at that time from the perspective of a victim and a bystander.
come out.
Of course, everything really happened, and even someone as smart as Answer could not realize that Gu Xing had concealed the most critical and core part - the taxi driver had been detained.
In addition, the answers raised dozens of questions at once, and Gu Xing answered them as best as he could within the scope of what he should know.
"Thank you very much for your cooperation,"
When the conversation was over and they were leaving, An Da shook Gu Xing's hand vigorously.
"If the police officers in Lidu headquarters can be like you and not have the slightest sense of narrow regional consciousness and prejudice, this country will definitely be greatly improved in its ability and efficiency to solve bizarre incidents."
"You're flattering me," Gu Xing said modestly, "This may be because I just resigned from the police department."
"I'm taking the liberty to ask,"
The answer still held Gu Xing's hand, "What are you going to do next? Or do you have any career plans?"
"temporary……"
"Why don't you open a detective agency?"
"Detective... agency?"
"Yes, but it's not an ordinary detective agency,"
The answer said: "I heard that you have acquired weird abilities from some way. If you have such abilities, you can register a detective agency with the Lidu Police Headquarters that specializes in investigating weird incidents, and the income from running it will be considerable.
"
"Investigating bizarre events?"
Gu Xing was puzzled, "Isn't this kind of thing the responsibility of the weird investigation departments in each city?"
"The power of the Oddity Investigation Section is actually very limited,"
The answer said: "With the exception of the East Police Department, the Oddity Investigation Sections in most cities are exhausted from dealing with the chaotic and disorderly murderous grotesques.
Therefore...for some weird cases from the good camp, where the situation is controllable and the harm is less, the Special Investigation Section will even take the initiative to introduce the reporter to a more reliable local weird detective agency to deal with it."
"grateful,"
Gu Xing shook his answer hand, "This information is very important to me."
If a grotesque detective agency is really established, Gu Xing will have a legitimate reason to contact the grotesques. Whether it is to find the enemy, deal with the serial killer, or contain the grotesques, he will have a very suitable platform.
Moreover, Gu Xing will always have to live in the future. It seems that the funds he needs can still be exchanged from the note, but the source of the funds must have a reasonable and legal explanation.
"You are welcome,"
The answer: "Actually, I am helping myself."
Gu Xing looked at him doubtfully.
"I've been searching for answers all my life,"
The answer said: "But my life is limited, my time is limited, and my energy is limited. If there are many people with weird abilities like you who can help me find the answer together, this is my ideal state."
When Answer said this, there was some weird sincerity on his face without facial features.
"I don't understand a little bit,"
Gu Xing said: "Why are you so obsessed with this... There are countless puzzles in the world, and there are countless answers. It will never be possible to find all the answers."
"Some people are born to pursue something, as if a piece of their soul is missing,"
The answer looked at Gu Xing, "They want to complete it, even if they give their lives."
Hearing this, Gu Xing remembered that a few months ago, he paid five years of his life to create the first monstrosity in the describer's career. In this way, he somewhat understood the answer.
People always want to pursue something.
Some people are paranoid about justice, and some people pursue answers, which is normal.
"The great detective of the future,"
The Dongdu investigator codenamed Ye Ying said to Gu Xing before the two left:
"I don't care about the answer, but if you take over any case related to sexual transformation in Lidu, remember to call me. I will come to help and I will be there at your call. I will definitely thank you in the future."
…
While registering for his detective agency in the Bizarre Investigation Section of Lidu, Gu Xing met the frogman who was investigating the bizarre incident of "Blue and Red Toilet Paper".
He held a thick stack of photos in his hand, all of which were pictures of strange red and blue corpses.
Gu Xing knew that one of these photos must belong to a colleague from the Criminal Division. He felt a little uncomfortable and increasingly believed that his decision to resign was the right one.
"Is this case difficult?" Gu Xing asked.
"Interested?" The frogman stopped.
"Yeah." Gu Xing nodded.
"Oh, I remembered, there is a colleague of yours in Jing'an Police Station who seems to be..."
"His name is Mikio Endo, and he just completed his wedding ceremony last month."
"What a pity,"
The frogman scratched his head and said, "Otherwise, if I leave this case to you, it would be your first deal since you opened your business..."
Just as Gu Xing was about to agree, the frogman said again: "No, I just remembered that you just opened your business. Weird things like [Blue and Red Toilet Paper], although the level is not very high, are still killing humans in a disorderly manner.
You can’t pick it up yet.”
"How can I pick it up?"
"Join our special investigation class."
"You know this is impossible."
"Don't be so stubborn, nothing is completely impossible in the world,"
The frogman said: "Don't deny it in a hurry - this sentence was said by the senior who led me into the industry... I didn't believe it at that time, but now I think it is simply the truth."
"How on earth can I take this case?"
"Well, young people always like to bang their heads and bleed to improve their memory,"
The frogman let out a long sigh, "You need to keep taking those weird cases. If you successfully handle one, you will add one point to our filing manual. If you add it to fifty points, you will be qualified."
"good."
After completing the registration, Gu Xing walked to the elevator on the Special Investigation Department floor and heard the frogman standing in the corridor shouting from afar,
"Don't worry, I will introduce you to a good job, Gu Xingjun! Don't worry about starving to death."
"..."
The elevator door opened and the Holy Son walked out of the elevator.
When she saw Gu Xing, she smiled at him and said hello briefly.
The two people passed by each other with unfamiliar looks and expressions.
The Holy Son in police uniform is beautiful, refreshing, and a little more mysterious than before. But it is this little bit of mystery that makes the Holy Son himself look far more charming than before.
Gu Xing knew that it was the change brought about by the bloody chain.
At first, Gu Xing gave his detective agency many names, such as Dongzi Detective Agency, Black Hole Detective Agency, Dongsang Detective Agency, etc. It seemed that he named it out of nostalgia for Xiaodong, but even thinking about it would expose himself.
The possibility of secrets.
Finally, he named it Gu's Ghost Story Detective Agency.
Originally, I wanted to use the word "grotesque" for the middle two words, but the Special Investigation Division banned it because the word "grotesque" is too sensitive.
The detective agency was quickly established, and the procedures were almost completed, but the office space had not yet been secured. Gu Xing wandered around Jing'an District for a few days, and finally selected an office on the second floor of a remote office building on the edge of Jing'an District.
The office faces the south, and the sun can shine in. Outside is a crowded residential area. The scenery is average, but the advantage is that the rent is cheap. Salary workers like Gu Xing can save a few years of salary to rent such an office space.
Obtrusive places.
Gu Xing really wanted to hang the Gu's Ghost Story Detective Agency sign outside the window. When he called the frogman to consult, the frogman said that if such a sign was hung up, the first people who would come would be women investigating cheating husbands and looking for missing persons.
The family members asked detectives to go to the school to investigate the parents whose children were bullied, and so on. It was endless and annoying, so it was best not to put up a sign and wait for the frogman to introduce customers to him.
"Then why do I need to rent an office?" Gu Xing said, "I can just stay at home and wait for your call."
"How could it be so careless,"
On the other end of the phone, the frogman said solemnly: "Being a detective must have a sense of ritual. What is the difference between a detective without a detective agency and an office space and a salted fish?"
"..."
"By the way, Gu Xing, do you need an assistant?"
"Assistant? What are you doing?"
"Help you answer the phone, coordinate things, and arrange your schedule,"
The frogman said:
"To be honest, I have wanted to go solo for a long time. I want to be a famous detective who walks with wind. Behind me is a beautiful assistant wearing high heels, holding a folder and wearing gold-rimmed glasses. If it weren't for the tires... forget it, bullshit.
Far away. What do you think of female assistants?
A mysterious detective, paired with a young, beautiful, and stunningly beautiful assistant, is such a dreamy combination that can only appear in TV series."
"..."
"If you don't have a suitable candidate for the time being, I can recommend you here. There are several intern assistants in our weird training class who are waiting to be filled. I will send you the photos later. If you don't think they are pretty enough, we still have some intern assistants here.
Trainees can also work part-time... By the way, the Holy Son is also participating in the training. How about the Holy Son? Is he pretty enough?"
"Du-du--"
Gu Xing brought all the weird things at home to the detective agency's office.
Seeing the weird people in the room busy doing their own thing, looking for the place they want to stay in the new environment, Gu Xing couldn't help but think: This is the real weird detective agency.
In the future, when investigating weird events, you can also let Weird take action and let Weird investigate Weird, Weird Detective, Detective Granny, Detective Fujino, Detective Gap Man, Detective Hat Man, Detective Haye... the picture should not be too wonderful.
One week after opening, Gu Xing welcomed his first customer.
That morning was as quiet as the first few days when the office had just opened and had nothing to do.
Gu Xing once thought that because he followed the frogman's advice and did not put up a sign, Gu's Weird Detective Agency would never open.
He was lying on the newly bought sofa that still smelled of patent leather, and the sun shone warmly on his face through the window sill. The years were quiet, as long as there were no weird and disorderly murders.
Perhaps it's because the business is not open, and the weirdos in the office are all listless.
Grandma Satomi was knitting on the other side of the sofa, and the family TV was also moved over.
Zao Hui half-knelt beside Gu Xing, holding her chin in her hands and looking at him.
Eijiro was writing a proposal, but his efficiency seemed to be very low. He spent half the morning writing, holding back eight words, and kept yawning.
Nobuhiko Kumada stood basking in the sun by a window that was much larger than the one in his Shibuya apartment, looking at a small, vibrant tree of unknown species under the office building in a bored daze.
At this time, a luxury business car parked under the office building, and a very capable-looking woman and a fully armed woman wearing a peaked cap, exaggerated sunglasses, and a mask walked out of the car.
Kumada Nobuhiko shook his head, opened his cracked mouth, and quickly ran to Gu Xing, pointing out the window as if he was asking for credit...
