Yu Ashiya, who was once a close friend of his father in the industry, now runs the largest private exorcism agency in Jibei City, and is said to have more than 300 regular customers.
In industries such as detectives and lawyers that lack the monopoly of large platforms, regular customers who are willing to pay for supernatural matters are extremely valuable resources. Therefore, when Ashiya Yu bluntly said on the phone that he would take him to meet his "big customer", Chen Ziang
I was also a little touched - this is really not treating myself as an outsider.
In order to show his sincerity, of course he quickly packed his bags, took the Mandala Sword and the Reiatsu Meter, and quickly took a taxi to the "Ashiya Detective Agency" without even having time to eat lunch.
After all, although it is a spirit-removing agency, due to the characteristics of mental pollution, of course it cannot put "spirit-removing" on its sign.
Anyway, by the time he arrived at the office, it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon.
Chen Ziang was walking in the aisle with his secretary when he suddenly heard a fierce female voice coming from a distance, seemingly venting his dissatisfaction:
"If this little matter can't be resolved, I think there's no need for us to continue talking."
"Sorry, we are still investigating the specific cause." Then Yu Ashiya explained, "But when you have nightmares, do you have to rule out the possibility of disease?"
"This aspect is not something you should consider." The female voice continued to say sternly, "What you have to do is to confirm or rule out the supernatural factors in this!"
"If it is confirmed that her nightmares every night have nothing to do with curses, head-downing, etc., then of course I will find other doctors, but you can't confirm it now, can you?"
"Ms. Hoshino." Yu Ashiya said with a wry smile, "We promise to give you an answer as soon as possible... Oh, Chen Ziang is here."
Chen Ziang pushed the door open, nodded to Yu Ashiya, and then looked at the people in the room.
Yu Ashiya, known as the heir to the famous ancient onmyoji Ashiya Michitsu, is also the head of Ashiya Detective Agency. He looks like a curly-haired uncle in his forties. He holds a cigarette in his hand, which is not lit, and his face is full of helplessness.
wry smile.
Sitting on the guest seat opposite the coffee table was a mature woman in professional attire. She looked to be in her thirties. Her expression was majestic and impatient, and she looked over with contempt and scrutiny.
"Who is this?" the mature woman asked with a frown.
"My assistant, Chen Zi'ang." Ashiya Yu motioned for him to sit next to him.
Chen Ziang sat down on the sofa and saw the business card on the coffee table with the words "Agent: Hoshino Norika" printed on it.
"What kind of commission is it?" he asked in a low voice.
"Ms. Hoshino's artist has been having nightmares every night for a week." Yu Ashiya sighed and said, "It has seriously affected her normal routine and sleep quality, so she came to us to find out the cause."
"But you guys can't seem to solve my problem." Hoshino Norika said coldly, "Maybe I should look for another firm."
"Forgive me for asking, is the content of nightmares the same every night?" Chen Ziang asked in confirmation.
Dreams are a reflection of the subconscious mind. If the dream is caused by mental pollution, the content should be roughly the same.
"It can be said to be the same, or it can be said to be different." Ashiya Yu explained, "The same thing is that in almost every nightmare, she commits suicide."
"suicide?"
"The difference is that the method of committing suicide is different every time." Yu Ashiya said with a wry smile, "We went to her residence and her usual office, and we did not find any traces of mysterious contamination, so we cannot rule out that it was psychological.
The possibility of disease…”
"Maki is usually very optimistic, and her career is also on the rise. Everything is going well. Where does her psychological problem come from?" Hoshino Norika interrupted him, "What I want is the answer, not this kind of ambiguity.
Baseless speculation!"
"Maki?" Chen Zi'ang was stunned for a moment, "Is she the singing female star?"
"Akamaru is the most valuable female singer-songwriter who has risen rapidly to the top of the charts for the most number of times. She has been selected for the Red and White Uta Competition for three consecutive years and the Golden Disc Awards. She is a well-known singer who won the first place in the 'National Goddess' voting last year.
Kiritani Maki!" Hoshino Norika is very dissatisfied with the title of "singing female star".
"Sorry." Chen Ziang said quickly, "Ms. Kiritani Maki is indeed very famous. I still have her records at home. My sister likes her songs very much... so she doesn't have any psychological problems, right?"
"Maki has a dedicated psychiatrist." Hoshino Norika said coldly, "She also undergoes stress tests regularly. All her psychological indicators are normal."
"Actually." The agent's upper body leaned forward slightly, making her expression and words more oppressive. "If you have really met Maki, you will know that this child is not the type who is good at hiding emotions. Even if he just suffered a pain
Even if she feels a little bit wronged, she will definitely tell me!"
Hoshino Norika's words were so conclusive that it was difficult for Ashiya Yu and Chen Ziang to continue speculating on "mental illness".
"Since Miss Hoshino is sure that it is not a psychological problem," Chen Ziang said seriously, "then perhaps we can only trouble you and arrange for us to meet the person involved. After all, whether the person involved is troubled by mystery or not, we can't help relying solely on your description.
Judgmental.”
"Impossible!" Hoshino Norika immediately refused, "She has a concert at the Budokan next week and is actively adjusting her condition today. It is impossible for me to bring a group of unreasonable people to influence her!"
What does it mean to be a person who is neither three nor four... Chen Ziang was used to being a security officer, but this was the first time he was evaluated as "neither three nor four", and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
However, on the one hand, this celebrity agent really looked down on the detective profession, and on the other hand, she had to ask for help from someone she despised. It seemed that the big star was indeed extremely seriously affected.
"If you continue to have nightmares, your condition will not be much better next week, right?" Yuya Ashiya knew the opponent's psychology well and directly used a killing blow.
Hoshino Norika's face was filled with anger, but she was speechless.
Holding a concert at the Heian Kei Budokan is the ultimate goal that many singers dream of. It is also an important milestone for Kiritani Maki's rise in the music industry. There is absolutely no room for any mistakes.
The reason why it took her a whole day to adjust was because she was plagued by nightmares and lack of sleep at night, so that she was always in a daze during the day - she even almost ate the napkin as toast this morning.
"Okay." Although she was very unhappy about being threatened, Hoshino Norika, who knew that everything had to be compromised for the concert, finally gave in, "I will take you to see her, but..."
"...Do not ask questions that are not related to the investigation."
Chen Ziang and Ashiya Yu naturally agreed wholeheartedly.
Hoshino Norika went outside to arrange a driver, and Ashiya Yu asked Chen Ziang:
"So why were you suspended?"
"The unit will confiscate the sealed items." Chen Ziang sighed.
"Hey." Ashiya Yuya sneered and lit a cigarette, "To be honest, I'm not surprised at all."
"The most powerful thing about the system is that it doesn't matter whether you are a god, a Buddha, a devil or a Shura on the outside, once you enter, it will turn you into something unique to the system."
"Confiscating the sealed items is just a trivial matter. Do you believe it or not, maybe in the future, the regular security officers will no longer work, and people like us will be hired specifically to solve the anomalies?"
"As long as I have work to do and no staff, it doesn't matter to me. At least I don't have to abide by those outrageous regulations." Chen Zi'ang was complaining when his phone suddenly vibrated.
If you look carefully, you will see that it is a text message from Tsukimiya Suzuna:
"Senior, I scolded the idiot at the racecourse, and then I was suspended! Where are you, I'll find you~"
