In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone through the gap between the two thick curtains and fell on the remaining half of the cup of tap water from last night.
The glass of water reflected the light on the table that was covered by the curtain.
Tan Hao, who had slept on the table for the night, stretched lazily and forced himself to open his sleepy eyes. When he saw that there was still half a glass of water on the table, he picked it up.
The whale swallowed it. She held the cup upside down, but she was still not full. Tan Hao had no choice but to get up and go to the water dispenser to get some water. Unexpectedly, just as he took a step, his foot slipped
Tan Hao sat on the floor. With a thud, his head hit the edge of the table. Tan Hao gritted his teeth in pain and muttered to himself,""It hurts so much
Ah, why is it so unlucky! How f * cking unlucky!" Rubbing her head, she looked down and realized that she had stepped on a banana peel. Only then did Tan Hao remember that a few people from last night
His old classmates came to his firm for a gathering and ate and drank until late at night. He had left the banana peel on the ground. Tan Hao didn't fall too hard this time, so he supported him.
The desk stood up and looked around. The entire office was in a mess.
Tan Hao had graduated from university a year ago. Because he had been addicted to detective and mystery novels since he was young, he opened this private detective agency after graduation. in his own words
You guys are addicted to Detective Conan because you fell in love with Kudo Shinichi, Conan, and Kidd... but I fell in love with Maori Kogoro.”but the reality
It was far crueler than a dream. Private detectives in China were not as common as those in comic novels. It was normal for them not to commission a case for a few months. Plus, Tan Hao, this person,
It was a three-minute heat. Now that his days were in a dilemma, he had already given up. He stayed in this law firm all day and played online games. He was too lazy to deal with business.
。
Tan Hao walked to the water dispenser and realized that the bucket was empty. He could only take another cup of tap water and gulp it down. As he was drinking, he suddenly heard the doorbell ring.
Dong, dong, dong, dong. It was as if he was urging her to die. Tan Hao was so shocked that he spat out a mouthful of water. Tan Hao knew very well that the landlord was probably here to ask for rent again. he crept
She tiptoed to the door and tried not to make a sound. She looked through the door mirror. As expected, it was the plump landlady with an impatient and impatient face.
It was facing the door. Tan Hao was so frightened that he did not even dare to breathe loudly and did not move at all. However, the doorbell kept ringing. After a while, the landlord became anxious and his big hands slapped the doorbell.
" Tan Hao, you little bastard! I know you're inside! Do you think you can hide without making a sound?" he shouted as he banged on the door. Let me tell you, you owe me a month's rent
You're still a university student! Pah!" Tan Hao saw the iron anti-theft door banging, and even worse, under the landlord's invincible shaking, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that
This security door should fall. "Let me tell you, three days. I'll give you another three days. If you don't have the money, you'll have to pack up and get lost as soon as possible!”Then, he heard
He heard footsteps coming downstairs. Tan Hao heaved a long sigh of relief.”He secretly opened the door a little to confirm that the landlord had indeed left. Actually, Tan Hao
They also had their own difficulties. As long as they had money, who would be willing to let the landlord block the door every day? Tan Hao looked at the messy room and smacked his lips."Sigh, looks like I really have to
He left."
The next day, Tan Hao found a few large cardboard boxes from the street and put his things in a good place. He threw away everything that should be thrown away and put in what was still useful.
Carton. After packing up for an entire day, Tan Hao actually sighed with emotion."Damn it, chase me away! Hmph, if you don't leave me here, I'll leave you somewhere else. Everywhere I go, I won't leave you,
I'll go home and stay." He was certain that tomorrow was the three-day deadline. As long as the landlord came, he would leave immediately.
The third day came very quickly. While Tan Hao was still in a deep sleep, the doorbell rang. Tan Hao looked at his watch. It was already nine in the morning. Tan Hao steeled his heart.
Since he was about to leave, he might as well argue with the landlord. He shouted,"He's here, like a death hunter. I'm not here to stay.
When I become rich in the future, I won't come back even if you invite me back with eight palanquins!”Unexpectedly, when Tan Hao opened the door, he was stunned. It turned out that the visitor was not
The landlord was a well-dressed gentleman in a suit. He looked to be in his thirties.
Tan Hao obviously didn't react in time and asked slowly,""You are…"
The visitor looked at Tan Hao and said,"Excuse me, is this Tongda Detective Agency?"”
Tan Hao nodded woodenly.
The visitor smiled and said,"I would like to ask your firm to help me with a small matter.”
Tan Hao suddenly realized that there was business. He hurriedly said,"Welcome, welcome, please come in!"
The visitor followed him into the house and suddenly saw the cardboard boxes on the ground. He was very puzzled and asked,"Your firm is…"
Tan Hao smiled." We'll just clean up. Please sit down. I'll get you a glass of water."”
The visitor looked around but didn't sit down. Looking at Tan Hao's back, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled into a smile that was not easily noticed.
Tan Hao walked to the water dispenser and remembered that the bucket was out of water. He could only smile awkwardly at the visitor.
The visitor did not mind and waved his hand."You're welcome. May I know who you are…"
"I'm the supervisor here, Tan Hao.”(Actually, he was the only one in the entire detective agency.)
"Hello, Mr. Tan." The visitor extended his right hand.”
"Hello, please take a seat."
After the two of them sat down, the visitor smiled indifferently and said,"Mr. Tan, let me introduce myself. My name is Takahashi. I'm here to ask Mr. Tan for help.
I need a favor." As he spoke, he took out a photo from the inner pocket of his suit jacket and continued,"Help me monitor this woman."
Tan Hao took the photo and looked at it, he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart. The woman in the photo was too beautiful. She was 24 or 25 years old, with bright eyes and white teeth.
Duozi, even the most popular internet beauty and movie star in the world would have to admit defeat. Tan Hao looked at the photo and asked,"Mr. Gao, according to the usual practice, I must
He wanted to know the ins and outs of the entire matter to prevent breaking the law. And this will help me complete your mission as soon as possible.”
"Mr. Tan, you're indeed quick-witted." Gao Qiao laughed. The woman in the photo is my big brother's fiancée, who is also my future sister-in-law. My Big Brother One
He had been in the jewelry business for a long time and had met this woman half a year ago. But later, he found that this woman was suspicious. She always went to see a man behind his back.
。Like…like…"
Tan Hao held the photo and said calmly,""To see my lover."
Takahashi blushed and nodded.""Mr. Tan, my big brother is also a famous person in the local area. He doesn't want to wash his dirty linen in public. As long as you can find this
We can pay you a large sum of money for the evidence of a woman meeting her lover. How about 100,000?”
When Tan Hao heard that, his heart almost jumped out. Heavens, 100,000! With this 100,000 yuan, not only could he pay off the rent, but he could also enjoy himself. but he can't
Exhibiting this joy, Tan Hao tried his best to keep his expression calm and said,""Mr. Gao, don't worry. Leave it to me.”
Takahashi was instantly overjoyed. He opened his briefcase and took out a brown envelope."Here is the deposit of 20,000 yuan.
After that, there will be 80,000 as a reward."
Tan Hao took the envelope. He tried his best to control his hand from trembling. He opened the seal and looked at the money. Suddenly, he remembered and asked,"Mr. Gao, you haven't sued me yet.
Tell me what this woman's name is.”
"Well, someone will tell you when you get there," Takahashi said. There was also a plane ticket and a letter in the envelope. The purpose of your trip is written on the ticket
The letter will tell you what to do when you get there. Farewell." With that, he turned around and left.
After Tan Hao sent him off, he couldn't wait to pour everything in the envelope onto the table. Sure enough, in addition to the two thick stacks of money, there was also a plane ticket and a letter
Yes. However, when Tan Hao saw the destination on the ticket, he was shocked. It was clearly printed on it-Tokyo, Japan. Just as Tan Hao was feeling suspicious, the doorbell rang.
It rang again. Could it be that Takahashi realized that the ticket was wrong and wanted to come back and explain? Tan Hao hurriedly put everything into the envelope and went to open the door. Unexpectedly, when he opened the door, he was dumbfounded.
It was the angry landlord.
As soon as the landlord entered the house, he smiled sarcastically and said,"Detective Tan, I finally caught you. How was it? Our three-day deadline is up. Today, this room
The rent should be paid off, right?"
Tan Hao hurriedly smiled apologetically and said," Auntie, you came just in time. Say, you…" Before he could finish speaking, he heard his phone ring. Tan Haoyi
He didn't recognize the number on the screen. After picking it up, he said,"Hello, Tongda Detective Agency." "Hello, I'm Takahashi." just happened
I saw this number on Mr. Tan's signboard when I came here, so I wrote it down so that we can contact him more easily.”Tan Hao said,"Just nice, I was worried about how to find you."
。Mr. Gao, is there a mistake in the ticket? Why is it a ticket to Tokyo?”"That's right, Tokyo," Takahashi said with a smile. It was a long way, but
Mr. Tan, think about it carefully. The remuneration we offer is not low.”Tan Hao smiled bitterly and said,"It's not low. Who wouldn't want to earn money?" But I…I said,
" Mr. Tan, you don't have to worry about this. We will naturally provide you with a translator when you arrive in Japan. Well, still
Do you have any doubts?" Tan Hao thought about it and could only say,"No…No more."”"Mr. Tan, I'll see you in Tokyo." Takahashi smiled.”Tan Hao hung up.
Then, he let out a long sigh of relief.
At this moment, the landlord looked at the large cardboard box in the room and sneered."Yo, the great detective is moving?"
Tan Hao also looked around and said indignantly,""Who said I'm moving? Our contract says it's a year. Tell me, how much rent do I owe you?"
The landlord saw that he was so poor and unreasonable. He crossed his arms in front of his chest and said," Three months, a total of 15,000."
Tan Hao pursed his lips and took out the plane tickets and letters from the envelope. He counted out another 50 tickets and threw the envelope to the landlord. The landlord hurriedly caught it.
When he opened it, his eyes lit up. "Fifteen thousand, count it," Tan Hao said.”
The landlord sealed the envelope with a smile and said,"No need to count, no need to count. I knew it. The great Detective Tan is young and promising. How could he owe this little thing?
Where's the money?"
"Alright, Auntie." Tan Hao said. Let's not talk about idle chatter. I'm going on a long trip recently. "The things I have here…" He looked at them."Just put it like this
Let's go. Help me look after this house. I'll be back at any time.”
The landlord nodded vigorously.”
That night, Tan Hao asked his old classmate Sun Shuqin out, and the two of them went to Star Bay Blue Bar together. Tan Hao told Sun Shuqin the whole story.
。He knew that among all his friends, Sun Shuqin was the one with the most ideas. He hoped that Sun Shuqin would be able to control him.
Sun Shuqin looked older, which was completely inconsistent with his age of twenty-four. He had a tuft of beard under his nose and wore a pair of glasses. After listening to Tan Hao's story, he said,
He lowered his head and did not speak. "Old Sun, what do you mean?" Tan Hao asked anxiously. Brother is in trouble, you can't leave him in the lurch.”
"Tan Hao, do you believe that pie falls from the sky?" Sun Shuqin asked.”
"You mean there's a problem here?" Tan Hao couldn't help but frown.”
"Think about it. Since Takahashi's big brother is in Tokyo, why didn't he find a private detective in Tokyo? Why did he come all the way to China?”
Tan Hao thought for a moment." Takahashi also said that his elder brother is also a famous person in Tokyo. If we find a local detective, the news might leak."
Ah. You also know that to these rich people, their face is more important than their lives.”
"Brother, I'm not trying to refute you." Sun Shuqin shook his head. In China, private detectives were not recognized. If they really wanted to investigate, they could.
Why would they come to China if they went to a country where private detectives are well-developed?”
"You don't even understand this. It's a waste that brother thinks so highly of you. Gao Qiao was from China, so he naturally had to find a Chinese detective to communicate with.”
"But to give a hundred thousand yuan as a reward all at once, it seems…" Sun Shuqin took a sip of wine and said.
"He runs a jewelry business. 100,000 yuan is just a drop in the bucket. I just said that their face is more important than anything else. As long as we can successfully find out the truth,
To them, money was secondary.”
Sun Shuqin was silent for a long time before suddenly saying,""Tan Hao, let me ask you. What do you think of your current job?”
Tan Hao was stunned, not expecting Sun Shuqin to suddenly ask this question. He said,""It's not easy. You said it yourself, we're not recognized.”
"Then are there any famous private detectives in China?”
"There are a few."
"How are you compared to them?"
"Ah?"
"I'm asking how you compare to those famous private detectives.”
"Don't tease me. If I could compare to them, would I not even be able to pay the rent?”
"That's the problem." Sun Shuqin nodded. The previous questions were reasonable, but this was the most important one. Brother, say you don't love me
You're just a nobody in the detective world. Why would they hire you with such a high price?”
Tan Hao couldn't help but fall into deep thought. After a while, he suddenly said,""Oh no, is there some conspiracy here? Are you trying to harm me?”
"First, you have no money, and second, you have no looks. What do they want from you?" Sun Shuqin laughed. By the way, when is your flight?”
"Tomorrow morning at 8:25."”
Sun Shuqin patted his shoulder and said,""Take care, brother. Take care of yourself. I'll ask one of my classmates in Tokyo to take care of you.”
Tan Hao took a sip of wine thoughtfully.
