Japanese noodle restaurants usually sat directly in front of the counter, and the boss would put his hands on his hips and smile as he watched the customers eat. Just thinking about that scene made Mochizuki feel awkward. He was the kind of person who would not be able to eat if someone stared at him.
"I don't know when I'll be able to be like that man. I can still eat when I'm being stared at and say in an exaggerated tone,'Ah! The smell of mommy!" The Moongazer Serpent sighed in its heart.
Fortunately, there were tables and chairs prepared for customers like Mochizuki. Mochizuki sat alone in a corner and started eating.
The noodles were very chewy, and the broth tasted very good.
While eating the noodles, Moongazer Serpent also thought about its situation.
For now, he didn't need to worry about his lifespan. However, there was one thing that troubled him, and that was money.
He had no money.
At the beginning of his transmigration, he was penniless. The penniless here referred to the yen. Because he was wearing it, his phone and wallet followed him. He tried to exchange Japanese Yen for Japanese Yen, and only after he succeeded did he have his first living expenses.
Now, he only had some change left in his card and cash.
" Not necessarily to find a job, but we must find a way to make money…" If Ming Mei heard this, she would feel that great minds think alike, because she was also worried about this.
Unlike Akami, Mochizuki knew the plot and had supernatural powers. It was easy to make money. He could make money by selling lifespan, but he couldn't find a suitable target at once.
He couldn't just find a random rich person and say," Give me 100 billion and I'll give you a year of life," right?
The lifespan he obtained from others was considered an official transaction and was protected by a contract. He gave his lifespan to others as a gift and was not protected. In other words, the other party could renege on the debt after obtaining lifespan. If the Moongazer Serpent killed the other party, it would only lose the lifespan it gave away.
Moreover, whether it was cash or bank transfer, there was a risk of exposure.
Therefore, the matter of selling his lifespan had to be discussed in the long run. The most important thing now was to get through this hurdle.
It was the same for Mochizuki to buy lifespan from the poor.
There was a difference between helping others complete their crimes and buying the lifespan of the poor. The former would keep his mouth shut because he had done something illegal, while the latter was just a simple money transaction without any scruples. After that, the person might brag to his friends and expose the existence of Death.
For someone who was willing to sell his life for money, verbal warnings were meaningless. Mochizuki couldn't monitor every transaction partner.
The Moongazer Serpent definitely didn't want the matter of Death to be made public.
"Speaking of money, I think of gold…"
The Moongazer Serpent first thought of the Pavilion of Dusk. That was a golden castle! He would not have to worry about living if he dug up a few pieces of gold. However, he immediately realized that things were not that simple.
"Even if I get the gold, I have to think of a way to cash it! It's not easy to cash in a large amount of gold with unknown origins…"
Mochizuki hadn't thought of a way to make money until he finished his breakfast, so he could only wander around the streets to see if he could get inspiration. As he was walking, he suddenly saw a building in front of him with the signboard of the Mi Hua Library.
"Mi Hua Library?" Moongazer Serpent had an idea.
If he remembered correctly, the librarian in the original novel seemed to be secretly selling drugs. An employee accidentally discovered this and was killed by the librarian. Later, the teenage detective team came to the library and coincidentally exposed the matter.
"The librarian's surname seems to be Jin Chuan? He should be very rich, right?" Mochizuki decided to be straightforward and steal the cash from Director Jin Chuan.
No! How could it be called stealing? Could it be called stealing?
"After I steal the money, I'll report it to the police. I'm doing a good deed!”Mochizuki had never done anything sneaky, but in order to eliminate the drug dealer, Director Jin Chuan, he decided to step forward.
Just like that, he found an empty corner, turned invisible, and walked into the Rice Blossom Library.
……
As it was a short holiday, there were many parents with children in the library. Although there were many people, it was not noisy at all. Everyone was reading quietly.
Mochizuki first checked the elevator. In the original novel, Director Tsugawa hid the body on top of the elevator after killing someone. However, the elevator was empty now, which proved that the murder had not happened.
Following the sign, Mochizuki came to the children's book area on the third floor.
If he remembered correctly, this was where Director Jin Chuan hid his drugs. If a book was taken off the shelf, one could see the back of the opposite book through the gap.
Anyone who saw the back of the book would think that it was the book on the opposite shelf, but in reality, there was another book placed between the two books. No matter how one looked at it, this book was not a book, but a box.
He didn't need to open the box. Mochizuki could see what was inside as long as he got close. A bag of white powder appeared in front of him.
"As expected, the plot hasn't changed. Director Jin Chuan is really selling drugs!”
The library, the holy land of knowledge, had been turned into a place for hiding drugs by Director Jin Chuan. How humiliating!
Moreover, the item was hidden in the children's book section. Although children might not notice anything unusual, what if a child discovered the box hidden in the middle of the bookshelf? Then, out of curiosity, he tasted the powder inside, and his life was over.
After all, not everyone could be like Conan, who dipped his finger into the powder and put it into his mouth before exclaiming,""This is…Hai Yin!" Nothing happened after that. This was illogical! Conan is not under the control of science.
As long as one touched a little of this stuff, they would never be able to quit.
……
After confirming that Director Jin Chuan was doing illegal business, Mochizuki would be able to go back on his word. He looked around the library but did not find any money. He guessed that the money should be at the curator's house, so he went to the parking lot and found the curator's car.
There was a driver's license in the car. The driver's license from Country R had his home address printed on it. After checking the address, Mochizuki went straight to the director's house. After some searching, Mochizuki found a basement with a lot of jewelry and cash hidden inside.
" Hiss..." Mochizuki sucked in a cold breath." So much money?”
There were stacks of cash neatly placed in the corner, piled up into a cube nearly half a meter high. It was estimated that there were at least 500 million yuan. "As expected, this kind of business is profitable!”
Moongazer Serpent couldn't take away so much money at once, so she paid a year of her lifespan and opened up a portable space with a capacity of 1 cubic meter. With a touch of his hand, all the cash was stored in his Dimensional Pocket.
Holding the 500 million yuan in cash stolen from Director Jin Chuan's house, Mochizuki felt very happy.
"This is not only robbing the rich to help the poor, but also eliminating evil for the people!”
The poor who robbed the rich to help the poor referred to himself.
Next, he should expose Director Jin Chuan's actions behind his back. Mochizuki fell into deep thought and felt that he couldn't call the police directly, because it would be easy for the police to find him later. Even if it was a public phone, there was a risk of being exposed.
"Let's write a letter." This ancient method of transmitting information was the most suitable for the Moongazer Serpent because it could enter anywhere without being detected. No one would know that it was him who sent the letter.
He immediately wrote a letter. In order to avoid exposing his handwriting, he wrote every word with a ruler. It was completely against his personal habits.
He sneaked into the police station and placed the letter on the desk of the police chief. This matter shouldn't have been under the jurisdiction of the Search Division, but Mochizuki didn't know any other police officers.
……
"Hmm? What is this?" Police Chief Mumu had gone to the toilet, and when he came back, he suddenly found a folded piece of paper on his desk. "Did anyone come to my place just now?" he asked his subordinate.”
Everyone said no.
That's strange…Megure was a little confused, so he picked up the paper on the table and spread it open.
Dear police officer, in order to cooperate with the police in the fight against drugs, I am writing this letter to report the director of the Beika Library, Tsugawa Shuji. This person is hiding drugs in the library and secretly conducting drug transactions. If the police didn't believe him, they would know that he had hidden the drug on the bookshelf of the children's book section on the third floor of the library in a box that was disguised as a book...
"Hmm? Why are there so many circles?"
Don't ask. If you say too much, you'll cry. Harmony!
