Chapter 40 He is so poor, but he works hard

Inside the office.

At this moment, a figure was sneaking and active in the darkness.

Kosagawa Maho skillfully opened the locked file cabinet in front of him, took out the power of attorney and checked them one by one.

"Captain, we haven't found anything strange so far. The commissions accepted by the target seem to be normal commissions, and there are no traces of the use of spiritual power in the room..."

"Osagawa." A communication voice suddenly sounded in the earphones.

"Huh? Does the captain have any new instructions?" Kosagawa Maho asked while flipping through the documents in his hand.

"Nothing, I just want to remind you, remember to wear gloves when doing this." The other party asked calmly.

Well?

Kosagawa Maho was startled, lowered his head, and looked at his slender fingers that were fiddling with documents.

Then he suddenly realized something and responded bravely.

"Of course I remember this!"

"I'm a professional. How could I make such a low-level mistake as leaving fingerprints at the scene? Captain, please stop looking down on others -"

The other party seemed to have anticipated Kosagawa Maho's reaction and said calmly.

"Take it out and put it on immediately, and don't forget to clean up any fingerprints left behind."

"oh......"

After being exposed, Kosagawa Maho's whole aura suddenly dropped, and he obediently took out his gloves from his chest and put them on.

After checking the filing cabinet to no avail, she turned her attention to the desk in the center.

Go behind the desk, open the drawer, tap the bottom board gently, and judge from the sound coming back whether there is an extra mezzanine underneath.

It was only after confirming that nothing was found that Kosagawa Maho reconnected to the communication.

She looked at the unremarkable office in front of her and asked doubtfully.

"Captain, is there really anything dangerous here?"

"Not necessarily, it's just my guess. It's normal if I don't find it." The other party responded.

Hearing this, Kosagawa Maho breathed a sigh of relief and vowed.

"Then it's obvious that the captain guessed wrong. I can assure the captain that Yagami Sora is not that kind of person."

Recalling the scene when the other party appeared in front of her without hesitation for the Yusen brothers and sisters, she was still a little shocked.

How could such a person be the kind of person who is willing to risk his own life to save someone he has never met?

However, even though Yagami was very smart, he certainly could not have imagined that everything he did was actually within the pattern of actions predicted by the captain.

The Yumori brothers and sisters are just a bait to give Sagawa Maho a legitimate reason to approach Yagami Sora, lurk next to him, observe his every move and provide timely feedback.

Thinking of this, Kosagawa Maho couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Sorry, Yagami, actually I am an undercover agent.

However, I will do my best to prove your innocence!

She thought for a moment and added.

"Captain, if there is really something dangerous hidden here, it might not be Yagami Sora's fault, but his detective father..."

"Detective father?" The tone of the voice in the earphone suddenly fluctuated.

"Xiao Sagawa, how did you know?"

"Huh? It was Yagami Sora who told me. At that time, it was all about his father... Wow!"

At this moment, Xiao Sagawa's exclamation suddenly sounded in the communication channel.

The other party was startled, and then asked sharply.

"Xiao Sagawa, what happened, answer me immediately!"

"Team, captain..."

At this moment, Kosagawa Maho was kneeling on the floor of the office, with his head under the desk, his expression a little dull.

After a long while, she replied tremblingly.

"There are a lot of bills stuck under the table..."

bill?

The sound in the earphones was stagnant, and he obviously didn't understand what Kosagawa Maho was talking about, so he wondered.

"What's the bill?"

"Uh...everything is available, electricity bills, water bills, online shopping, air tickets..."

"Wait a minute, there is something else here." Kosagawa Maho immediately found something again and reached out to reach for it.

After getting it, she was suddenly surprised.

"This...this is..."

"It's Yagami Sora's usual itinerary!"

Trip record sheet?

Upon hearing this ranking, the voice in the headphones suddenly had a hint of urgency.

"Xiao Sagawa, look at what's written on it?"

"Well... let me take a look."

In the darkness, Kosagawa Maho's eyes flashed with a faint fluorescent light as he scanned the documents in front of him.

Word by word.

"Deliver express delivery, deliver food, repair water pipes, work as a tutor..."

ha?

What are these things?

The voice in the earphones couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

Looking at the full schedule in front of him, Kosagawa Maho couldn't help but get wet at the corners of his eyes.

Choked.

"Captain, Ye Shen seems to have been busy working during this time..."

"He is so poor, but he works so hard, wuwuwu, I cry to death..."

Snap.

The familiar hang-up sound sounded.

"Captain? Captain?"

"Why did you cut off my communication again?!"

...

In a conference room somewhere.

At the end of the oval conference table, a girl in a cherry-white kimono took off her headphones and rubbed her brows helplessly.

"Captain, your coffee."

Beside her, a woman in a white coat took a cup of freshly brewed matcha coffee from the tray and brought it to the girl.

She is about thirty years old, with long wavy brown hair, and her half-frame glasses reveal her unique mature temperament as a scientific researcher.

"Thanks."

The girl nodded slightly.

"Hey Sakura, I want to order here too."

On the other side of the conference table, Nohara Rintaro, who was also the last person in the room, waved enthusiastically and shouted.

"Please give me a cup of the same cup, just replace the coffee with agave, and replace the cream and tea powder with lime slices."

Hearing this, Sakura Yui coldly stretched out her hand to push up her glasses and said unceremoniously.

"Forgive me for refusing."

"I must remind you, Nohara, this is not a bar, and I am not your bartender. If you want to drink, please go elsewhere."

Nohara Rintaro raised his head, leaned on the back of the chair with his hands, and sighed quietly.

"You can adjust it to the captain, but you can't adjust it to me. Such differential treatment is really cruel."

He immediately turned around and said with a serious face.

"In this case, as the deputy captain of the fifth division, I order you to go and make me a Matador cocktail right now."

"Add more lemon, less pineapple."

"Nohara, please stop this!"

Looking at the careless man in front of her, Sakura Yui couldn't help but feel a little angry on her academic face.

"Well, don't be angry, I just think it's a pity Sakura that you don't use your curse seal to mix drinks."

"If you don't adjust, forget it. After all, Sakura, you don't pay attention to the vice-captain appointed by the captain himself..."

Nohara Rintaro shrugged indifferently.

"What did you say?"

Hearing this, Sakura Yui's eyes suddenly darkened behind her lenses.

The temperature in the conference room seemed to have suddenly lost control. The heat above the coffee in front of her quickly disappeared and was replaced by a thin layer of frost.

"Oh? Do you want to compete?"

Nohara Rintaro rubbed his palms and said with interest.

"Stop it, Sakura."

At this moment, the girl suddenly spoke.

She stared at the matcha coffee in front of her that had turned into ice and sighed softly.

"You can't defeat Nohara, so it's better to obey his orders."

"You heard it, Sakura, the captain even spoke personally." Nohara Rintaro Ichiraku happily gave the girl a thumbs up and expressed his appreciation.

"Captain, good job!"

"snort."

Sakura Yui glared at the playful Nohara Rintaro, then snorted angrily and turned around to leave.

The sound of high heels hitting the ground was like a gunshot.

It wasn't until the angrily leaving figure disappeared from his sight that Nohara Rintaro turned his head and asked curiously.

"Captain, why did you suddenly pay attention to this person named Yagami Sora and arrange for the idiot Xiao Sagawa to go undercover next to him?"

"According to the report submitted by Meiji Shrine, four days ago, he participated in the spirit-exorcism assessment at Meiji Shrine and received a certificate of exemption from spirit-exorcism." The girl pondered.

"Huh? What's the use of an assessment like that of a child playing house?"

Nohara Rintaro had a disdainful expression on his face.

"Because of the fear of casualties, it's okay to limit the supernatural power to a very low range. There is no additional time limit. Even a three-year-old child can pass such an assessment."

"Things are a little different this time."

The girl said calmly.

"This young man named Yagami Sora only took seven minutes to complete the assessment and get the token back from the secondary singularity point controlled by Meiji Shrine."

"Really, that's quite capable." Nohara Rintaro nodded reluctantly.

But he immediately added.

"However, it's just a Level 2 Singularity. At this level, all members of the Fifth Division, except for that loser Ozagawa, should be able to do it easily..."

"Besides, the person who recommended him to take the exam as an exception is the eldest lady of the Jingu family."

The girl continued.

"The eldest lady of the Jingu family? The candidate for the Supreme God Miko?"

Hearing this name, Nohara Rintaro was suddenly startled and spoke in surprise.

"What's going on? Why would such a noble person do such a thing?"

"I don't know either." The girl shook her head.

"Last point, this boy named Sora Yagami has been very close to a girl named Chiba Yui recently."

"And the place where the girl named Chiba Yui's home is located happens to be near the singular point where she suddenly disappeared last time and never showed her head again."

At this moment, the careless expression on Nohara Rintaro's face suddenly solidified.

He unconsciously leaned forward to straighten his sitting posture, and the expression on his face became extremely serious.

"What the captain means is that the person who eliminated the third-level singularity is this Yagami Sora?"

"It's just speculation at the moment. Objective analysis shows that the possibility of it being him is 8%." The girl said calmly.

"After listening to Obsagawa's report just now, this possibility has been reduced to 6%."

"However, if I add my subjective feelings, I will increase his possibility to 20%."

Recalling the ghost-like look in her eyes that she saw today, the girl's eyes were not only solemn.

If true evil is awakened in such eyes, what kind of monster will fall out?

"Huh? Why?"

Nohara Rintaro asked curiously.

"Go with your gut."

The girl said frankly.

"intuition?"

Nohara Rintaro suddenly had an expression on his face and said blankly.

"This word actually comes out of the captain's mouth. It's really off the mark..."

"Don't look down on women's sixth sense, Nohara." The girl snorted.

"Sometimes I can see through a lot of hidden things just by intuition."

She raised her eyes, her calm gaze like two sharp thorns piercing Nohara Rintaro's aorta.

"For example, about you Nohara."

Under the calm gaze, Nohara Rintaro's forehead was covered with sweat.

"Captain, you really love to joke... I, Rintaro Nohara, am very loyal. I have been injured and shed blood for the team, so how can I hide anything from you..."

"Captain, please stop looking at me, I'm getting shy..."

In response to this, the girl did not continue to exert pressure and withdrew her gaze.

"In short, in order to catch the other party's flaws, we must formulate a more detailed plan, because the other party may be more cunning than we think."

"Why does the captain feel this way?"

"I have seen the camera video near Chiba Yui's house on the day the singularity appeared."

"However, the footage from those cameras did not capture the appearance of Yashenkong."

"What the captain means is that Yashenkong consciously avoided those cameras?"

"Isn't this unreasonable? Who would be free to memorize the locations of those cameras?"

"There will be." The girl said softly.

"For example, detective."

"Or maybe he's a criminal."

"I don't know which category Yashenkong belongs to..."

Seeing the obvious doubt in the other person's eyes, Nohara Rintaro suddenly realized.

"I see. Is this what the captain is confused about?"

"No, that's not where I'm confused."

While speaking, the girl's eyes swept over the thick pile of information in front of her.

His brows furrowed even more tightly.

He bit his fingers unconsciously.

"Why didn't I find out that he has a father?"
