Chapter 74 New Commission!

"exist."

Jason raised the corner of his mouth and gave the answer.

Jason will always be tolerant of people who deliver goods to their doorsteps, even if they have impure motives.

It did not remove the [Keya Seal] in the room.

Jason stood up and walked to the door.

When the door was opened, a man appeared in front of Jason.

Compared to his slightly older voice just now, the other person's face is well-groomed, and although his clothes look simple, if you look closely, you can see that the materials are extraordinary.

At least, Jason could tell that the buttons were sterling silver.

Leather shoes should be purely handmade.

Rich people.

This was Jason's first impression of the other party.

Then, there is fatigue.

Even after careful grooming, the dark circles under the eyes and tired look could not be hidden.

Especially when the other person looked at Jason, his eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes.

Obviously, the other party has not had a good rest for a long time.

This puts the opponent in a very bad state.

He even felt mentally trance-like.

So much so that the other party was obviously the one who knocked on the door first, but when Jason opened the door, the other party was still startled.

The other party took a step back first.

Then, he quickly realized that it was rude to do so.

"Feel sorry."

The middle-aged man bowed apologetically.

Jason frowned.

It's not because of the other party's rudeness.

But I feel that the other party should not be a 'chess piece' or something like that.

First of all, the other party's clothes indicate that the other party should have a pretty good income and a pretty rich family background.

Secondly, the other party's current way of calmly apologizing despite making mistakes is not a temperament that can be developed in a short period of time.

Third, the opponent has not undergone any training and should maintain some fitness and running habits, but he has never been exposed to combat training or firearms.

Such a person should obviously be born in an upper-class society and inherit the wealth of his father's generation. He does not need to run around for life and does not have too much ambition.

In the same way, such people will not become other people's 'chess pieces'.

Of course, there are no absolutes.

Everyone has something they care about.

That's his weakness.

Start with your weaknesses and the impossible becomes possible.

As for having no weaknesses?

impossible.

That just means you haven't found it yet.

Therefore, after making a preliminary judgment, Jason still remained vigilant.

After all, it is possible for a professional actor to confuse the fake with the real.

And with the power of Huakaiyuanjia, it is not difficult to find a professional actor within a few hours.

Therefore, Jason did not invite the other party into the room, but just stood at the door and looked at the other party.

"Hello, is this Mr. Jason?"

The other party didn't feel angry at all. He just looked at Jason and confirmed again.

"Um."

Jason nodded.

Then, Jason keenly discovered that after he admitted his identity, the other party was obviously relieved.

It was a feeling of relief.

After that, the other party said very simply.

"That's great."

"I've been here several times, but you're not here every time."

"Mr. Rock said that you must have received some big task and asked me to wait patiently. But after something like that happened at home, I really can't wait any longer..."

The middle-aged man said happily.

There is some nagging feeling.

However, Jason could feel that the other party was venting.

Catharsis comes from inner fears.

"You know Boss Rock?"

Jason had a pretty good impression of the boss of ‘Rock Electric’ across the street.

He is passionate and sticks to his bottom line.

The new TV in his room is proof of that.

There is also the incident of ‘Curse Video Murder’, which is also proof.

Obviously you can ignore the matter and ignore it, but the other party launched an investigation.

"Yes, I used to be business partners with Mr. Rock. This time something strange happened at home. It was Mr. Rock who informed me of your existence, Mr. Jason... Sorry, I forgot to introduce myself, I am Uesugi."

With that said, the middle-aged man bowed again and took out his business card.

Jason took the business card.

Uesugi Winery.

winery?

Making wine?

Jason thought, just turn to one side.

"Excuse me."

The middle-aged man said very politely before walking into the room.

However, there were no slippers in the empty corridor, which made the middle-aged man stunned.

"I don't have spare slippers here, please feel free to do so."

Jason said this.

The middle-aged man nodded, walked through the corridor, and sat on the sofa with some restraint.

"What do you need?"

"Coffee? Water? Juice?"

Jason asked as he walked towards the window.

“Just plain coffee.”

"Thanks."

The middle-aged man named Uesugi looked around curiously as he spoke.

The place where Jason lives is really simple.

There is no refrigerator, no coffee machine, and no water dispenser.

How to prepare coffee?

Just as Uesugi was thinking about it, Jason opened the window and shouted down -

"Hui Lijing, bring me a cup of coffee and a cup of water."

The voice is loud and clear.

And it has a very powerful sense of penetration.

Hui Lijing, who was trying to figure out the sword skill 'Thrust', could hear it clearly.

The tall female detective frowned.

No one likes to be interrupted when they are concentrating.

Huilijing is no exception.

But similarly, Hui Lijing believed that Jason was not a person who would bother her for no reason.

Coffee is the best proof!

Jason doesn't drink coffee.

Hui Lijing is quite clear about this.

So it could only be a visitor.

And what kind of client will come to the office of ‘Mask X Machete X Meat’?

They are all people related to the ‘mysterious side’ and inextricably linked to the ‘other world’!

Therefore, Hui Lijing immediately sheathed the dagger in her hand, put it in her long boots, and responded with excitement.

"I know, come right away!"

The female detective who has already come into contact with the ‘mysterious side’ and ‘inside world’ and has begun to get in touch with ‘mysterious knowledge’, at this time, her ‘interest’ in the ‘mysterious side’ and ‘inside world’ has officially reached its peak.

It's like an adolescent boy has mastered a certain skill and can't wait to show it in front of the girl he loves every day.

Licking a dog?

No!

This is not dog licking.

To be more precise, it is a peacock with its tail spread.

Under the stimulation of hormones, the people, things and things you like will put on filters, and everything will become so beautiful.

And when the hormones subside?

The beauty remains.

It has both responsibilities and habits.

They stand there firmly, allowing you to experience life like never before.

At this moment, Hui Lijing seems to be feeling the first beauty, which is also the most fascinating part.

As for what happens next?

Right now, she hasn't thought about it that much.

After all, you can't expect a detective who dreams of being a barista to think so much after going through a military camp career and wandering around the battlefield several times, right?

Hui Lijing quickly appeared in the office on the second floor with coffee, water, some biscuits and dried fruits.

After seeing Uesugi, Hui Lijing's eyes lit up.

Sure enough, we have guests!

What other mysterious incident is it?

With speculation in her heart, the female detective brought the coffee to Uesugi and handed the water to Jason.

"Thanks."

Uesugi thanked the female detective very politely, and at the same time, quietly looked at the female detective.

So tall!

Are all exorcists this tall?

Uesugi looked at Hui Lijing standing side by side with Jason and couldn't help but think.

"This is my assistant."

Jason introduced Hui Lijing’s identity.

This is the identity that the two people reconfirmed after reaching the second step of cooperation.

With Jason's 'fame', the original setting was no longer suitable.

Hui Lijing has no objections to this.

She is just a newbie, a rookie.

Being Jason's assistant is just right.

"Hello, Miss Hui Lijing."

"I, Uesugi."

There was no need for Jason to introduce the name, the voice just now had already let Uesugi know the name of the female detective.

When the female detective who took the business card saw the words on it, she almost subconsciously said.

"Are you the Uesugi that Boss Rock told you about?"

"If no one has been so unlucky lately...it should be me."

Boss Uesugi said with a wry smile.

Then, the middle-aged man described his own affairs.

Boss Uesugi's winery is a family business, which can be traced back to the Warring States Period, and was even owned by a prince.

Boss Uesugi was quite proud when he said this.

But, immediately, the boss sighed.

"But as time goes by, the Uesugi family has long since declined, especially in my generation - I am an incompetent person. Apart from guarding the only ancestral property, I have no ambition at all."

"Fortunately, none of my parents, wife, or daughter dislike me because of this."

"On the contrary, he was very accommodating to me, so I lived a very happy life."

"It was just that something strange happened during the renovation of the ancestral home about two months ago."

"The figure of a girl always appears in my dreams."

"At first I thought it was because I didn't get enough rest."

"But for a week, I dreamed about this girl."

"Then my wife and daughter also dreamed about it."

Speaking of this, Uesugi's face became a little more sad.

There is no doubt that this middle-aged man cares very much about his family, his wife and children.

"Where are your parents?"

Hui Lijing asked.

"This is something to be thankful for. My parents traveled outside the island. Otherwise, given their age, they might not be able to withstand such torture."

"If I had known better, I should have asked my wife and daughter to go with me."

"But my wife is worried that I have no one to take care of me and my daughter is studying."

"well."

Uesugi sighed as he spoke.

"What does that girl look like?"

Hui Lijing continued to ask.

As a detective, Hui Lijing obviously understands what her assistant should do.

It is not Ryousuke and Urashima's privilege to have one person ask and the other observe.

In the detective world, this kind of thing is almost routine.

Hui Lijing believed that Jason could see something.

Although Jason kept twitching his nose, which made her a little confused.

It's not like you're smelling food, so why are you twitching your nose?

"The girl can't see clearly, but she must be very pretty, right?"

"Like a princess!"

"Although I can't see it, my intuition tells me that it is like that, and she shouldn't have any malicious intentions."

Uesugi answered truthfully.

"oh?"

"and you?"

Hui Lijing didn't finish her question, but the meaning was already obvious.

If there is no malicious intent, why do you come here to find Jason?

Uesugi answered immediately.

"She's asking me for help!"

"Help?"

Hui Lijing frowned.

This was an answer she didn't expect.

In her perception, most ordinary people are the victims of what happens in the 'mysterious side' and the 'other world'.

Why did it turn over this time?

Are the existences of the ‘mysterious side’ and ‘inside world’ asking ordinary people for help?

"Yes, please help."

"She kept saying help me."

"But after I asked about it, she disappeared."

"It's like this every time."

"My wife and daughter asked the same question."

Facing Hui Lijing's doubts, Uesugi nodded and said with certainty. Then, the middle-aged man stood up, threw himself to the ground, and said to Jason: "Your Excellency Jason,

Please save her and my family."

Hui Lijing blinked.

This time, the female detective didn't speak again.

She left it entirely to Jason to make the decision.

This is the self-consciousness of a newbie and a rookie.

This is also a valuable experience Hui Lijing learned from the battlefield.

Don’t believe people with such experience?

Most of them will always remain a newcomer, a rookie, and then... their bodies will be penetrated by bullets, or their bodies will be smashed to pieces by artillery shells.

Simply put, this is an experience gained in exchange for life.

Hui Lijing will naturally comply.

"Um."

Jason nodded.

Uesugi raised his head in joy.

"Thank you so much."

"Thank you so much."

The middle-aged man said repeatedly, and then continued bluntly: "The little girl did not hurt us, but there is some kind of force that is hurting her. If she is killed, we who are connected with her will naturally be very worried.

There is no way to escape the disaster - so please don't think that I have any benevolence and righteousness, I am just protecting myself."

"For this reason, please tell me truthfully what remuneration you need."

Uesugi said, saluting again.

Seeing Uesugi like this, Hui Lijing's impression of him reached a new level again.

He is really a polite and honest person.

She has seen too many people who are deceitful and care about every penny.

There are really too few people like Uesugi.

Subconsciously, Hui Lijing wanted to help Uesugi speak.

However, the female detective restrained herself wisely.

"Take me to your ancestral home."

"After seeing it, let's talk about the reward."

Jason ended the conversation with these words.

After the three people left the office, Jason walked specifically to Rock Electric. After the Rock boss confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Uesugi in front of him, Jason got in the car.

It was Hui Lijing who drove.

Follow Uesugi's car.

"Jason, you are really too careful."

"It's worth learning from."

"Are you doubting him?"

The female detective naturally understood the meaning of Jason's actions just now.

"If you have not experienced life and death, it is always questionable."

Jason expressed his ideas.

To this, the female detective did not refute.

She also recognized such words.

And just when the female detective was about to say something, she suddenly noticed that Jason was looking behind him.

Subconsciously, the female detective looked in the rearview mirror.

Immediately, she made a discovery.

Hey, stalker?
