"It's alright, you can go back to your room." Shirakawa Natsu patted her hand, then turned to Ximu and said, "You should go and get ready too, we can't miss this opportunity."
"Okay." Xi Mu got up from the sofa and went back to her room.
He was left alone in the living room.
Shirakawa Natsu picked up her phone and dialed Maki's number again: "Aunt Maki, does Hirose Iku have a special identity?"
"Hmph," Ma Fei chuckled, "Her father is the Superintendent General of the Metropolitan Police Department, and she works in the Anti-Violence Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, currently as a supplementary inspector. If you have any leads, you can provide them directly to her; don't worry about being passed around."
“Oh, this identity is indeed a very suitable candidate.” Shirakawa Natsu nodded, having a police chief as her father.
He was clearly a graduate of the professional group, but his father used his connections to transfer him to the Metropolitan Police Department's Anti-Violence Division.
Then consider how eagerly he seemed to want to talk to her on the phone earlier.
The second-generation police officer, usually well protected by his father, clearly has an ambition to achieve success.
"By the way, Hana and Kanna are going back to Japan next week," Maki said softly. "Want to have dinner together?"
“Of course.” Shirakawa Natsu understood. Aunt Maki knew better than anyone else: “Once I finish what I’m doing, I’ll go meet them. We need a formal occasion to tell them our identities.”
"Okay, be careful." Ma Fei's voice was noticeably lighter.
Shirakawa Natsu hung up the phone, clenching his fists. He couldn't delay any longer; he had to be a responsible man.
I'll explain everything to Hana and Kanna when they return to Japan.
They are only father and daughter.
The time comes in the afternoon.
Shirakawa Natsu received another call from Hirose Iku, asking him to meet at the pier. He didn't bring Miyuki with him and went directly to the pier to meet.
The sea breeze carried a distinctive fishy smell characteristic of the seaside.
Shirakawa Natsu parked the car at the designated location and saw another black BMW parked on the side of the road. After he got out of the car...
A young man emerged from inside. He had a square face, regular features, a strong physique, and was under thirty years old. He was wearing headphones.
He saw that Shirakawa Natsu was dressed in a stylish casual outfit, but it couldn't hide his handsome appearance.
A flicker of wariness crossed the man's eyes, but he quickly concealed it, stepped forward to Shirakawa Natsumi, and extended his hand warmly:
"Hello, are you Mr. Shirakawa Natsu? My name is Mifune Takashi."
"Hello." Shirakawa Natsu reached out and shook hands, immediately feeling a tremendous force coming from her palm.
His current strength attribute is 10, while that of an adult male is 6.
Shirakawa Natsume feigned pain, looking at Mizuki Takashi with a puzzled expression.
"Haha, sorry, it's a habit." Sanzhou Qiao laughed it off. "Please come with me."
After he finished speaking, he got into the car and gestured for him to sit in the back seat.
Shirakawa Natsu thought to himself that this person was quite wary, and then got into the BMW.
Sanzhou Qiao drove at full speed all the way, speeding for a kilometer before stopping outside a dilapidated one-bedroom apartment.
Shirakawa Natsu got out of the car, her lips twitching. These people were acting like spies meeting.
"Excuse me, would you mind if I search you?" San Zhouqiao said, and without waiting for his reply, he reached out his hand.
Shirakawa Natsu dodged to the side, her voice lowering: "Officer Mifune, you seem to have misunderstood something. I'm providing you with information. If this is your attitude, then I won't keep you company."
He wanted to cooperate with the police simply because he thought targeting Yamada would draw the police's firepower.
San Zhouqiao's current attitude is clearly not towards someone who provided them with intelligence, but rather towards someone with inexplicable hostility.
To intimidate him.
“Mr. Shirakawa,” Mitsuki Takashi said with a smile, “citizens have an obligation to cooperate with the police. If my actions have caused you any misunderstanding, I apologize.”
He was apologizing, but his body was blocking his way.
Shirakawa Natsu narrowed his eyes, feeling puzzled. Why was this man hostile towards him on their first meeting?
He clenched his fist; it seemed he needed to be taught some manners.
at this time.
San Zhou Qiao paused for a moment, reached out to adjust his earpiece, listened to the voice inside, and after a moment of silence, said to Shirakawa Natsu, "Excuse me, Mr. Shirakawa, please."
He pointed to the door of the dilapidated one-bedroom apartment, but didn't go inside himself.
"Oh." Shirakawa Natsu rested her chin on her hand, a smile playing on her lips. "So you're just a stray dog kept in captivity. I thought you were someone important just now, with your arrogance."
"?" San Zhouqiao was stunned, his pupils dilated. He obviously did not expect Shirakawa Natsu to dare to provoke him like this.
"What, you're not convinced?" Shirakawa Natsu deliberately took a step forward: "If you want to prove that you're not a domesticated stray dog, you can try disobeying your master's orders and biting me."
San Zhouqiao's expression was gloomy and uncertain. He clenched his fists but did not make any further moves.
Shirakawa Natsu secretly regretted it. He was very concerned about Misaki's inexplicable hostility and wanted to provoke him to see if he could get any new information.
Unfortunately, he held back.
Instead of heading towards the dilapidated one-bedroom apartment, Shirakawa Natsu turned and left.
"Where are you going?!" Sanzhou Qiao frowned and walked up, blocking his way.
"What, officer? Do you want to restrict my personal freedom without a reason?" Shirakawa Natsu's eyes were playful.
at this time.
His cell phone rang.
Shirakawa Natsu took out his phone, and sure enough, it was Hirose Iku calling. Without hesitation, he pressed the hang-up button.
“Mr. Shirakawa.” Mitsuki Takashi frowned deeply. “I suggest you cooperate with the investigation, otherwise I will take coercive measures.”
“Fine.” Shirakawa Natsu stretched out her hand: “Come on, arrest me, or you’re not a man.”
He narrowed his eyes: "However, I will hire lawyers to keep suing you. You should know who I am, and you should know the consequences of offending me."
After Shirakawa Natsu finished speaking, she looked at Mizuki Takashi's expression.
His expression was initially confused, then hesitation flashed in his eyes.
"Strange?" Shirakawa Natsu thought to himself, knowing that he was testing him.
He was unaware of his own identity within the Yamagishi Group, so he wasn't sent by the Yamada Group to deal with him.
His hesitation proves that he is afraid of Shirakawa Natsumi's true identity, or at least that he is not someone with powerful backing.
"?" Shirakawa Natsu was truly speechless. What the hell? You weren't sent by the enemy, so why are you so hostile towards me?
Just then, the door to the one-bedroom apartment opened, and a smart and capable woman stepped out.
"Ding-dong." Shirakawa Natsu's phone popped up with a notification.
"Yellow Hair App: Yellow Hair Mission Initiated, Target: Mifune Joe. Mission Objective: Take Hirose Iku from him."
"?" Bai Chuanxia was taken aback. He didn't want to be dominated by cheats, so he had abandoned them for a long time.
He'd almost forgotten he had a cheat code.
Chapter 681 She has a problem
Hirose Iku had short, shoulder-length hair, and her eyes were serious and bright. She looked dashing in her women's suit. She walked up to Shirakawa Natsu:
"I'm sorry, but because the information you provided is rather unusual, please forgive us, we will be more cautious."
"He doesn't seem cautious." Shirakawa Natsu didn't intend to complete the mission; he wasn't some walking, self-propelled cannon.
He pointed at San Zhouqiao: "Your companion harbors inexplicable hostility towards me, which makes me doubt your true identities."
When Shirakawa Natsu saw the yellow-haired guy's app, she knew where his inexplicable hostility came from.
The old-fashioned jealousy led them to believe he was a man deliberately trying to get close to Hirose Iku.
Displeasure flashed in San Zhouqiao's eyes. Bai Chuanxia said it directly, clearly wanting to embarrass him: "I am just taking necessary security measures."
“Officer Mifune, apologize to Mr. Shirakawa,” Hirose Iku said softly.
Upon hearing this, Mitsuki Takashi's expression changed, but he quickly concealed it and turned to Shirakawa Natsumi: "I'm sorry, Mr. Shirakawa."
Hirose Iku turned to Shirakawa Natsu and bowed slightly: "I'm sorry, please forgive me."
"Hmm." Shirakawa Natsu squinted. This Hirose Iku didn't seem like the spoiled second-generation rich kids in those movies who were arrogant. On the contrary, he was flexible and adaptable.
Shirakawa Natsu glanced at Mizuki Takashi, the blond-haired guy identified by the system, though he was trying his best to hide it.
But the displeasure in his eyes was impossible to hide.
“I feel there’s a lack of basic trust between us.” Shirakawa Natsumi wasn’t one to tolerate things easily, and she looked at Mizuki Joe:
“We need to face the reality that if I wanted to take action, you have no way to protect this woman.”
"?" San Zhou Qiao was stunned. Looking at Bai Chuan Xia's delicate appearance, he found this provocation inexplicable.
Hirose Iku frowned.
“Perhaps you can give it a try.” Shirakawa Natsu held up three fingers: “In three seconds, I will attack you. If you can withstand even one of my blows, I will lose, three…”
"Hmph." San Zhou Qiao frowned. "I'm sorry, Mr. Shirakawa, I don't want to play childish games with you."
"Two." Shirakawa Natsu smiled and lowered one finger.
Sanzhou Qiao squinted, seeing that he wasn't joking, and tried to step back, but stopped, feeling that if he retreated, he would lose his momentum.
Hirose Iku did not stop him, wanting to see what the boy would do.
“One.” Shirakawa Natsu lowered another finger.
Mizuki didn't adopt a fighting stance, but all his muscles were tense as he intently watched his movements.
"Zero." Shirakawa Natsu lowered the last finger, which simultaneously transformed into a palm. Humanity's ultimate speed, strength, and stamina were all condensed into this palm.
A blur flashed before his eyes, and with a "smack," Sanzhou Qiao's jaw was struck hard.
He was like an appliance that had been unplugged; his brain was forcibly shut down, his body went limp, he collapsed to the ground, his legs twitched a couple of times, and then he stopped moving altogether.
The jaw strike is one of the most commonly used techniques in boxing.
Even a boxer who has undergone long-term training will fall into a baby-like sleep if hit in the jaw, just like a switch on the human body.
Although Shirakawa Natsu possessed peak human strength and speed, Mifune Joe clearly knew how to fight. If he had defended in advance, he might not have fallen so easily. He was truly overconfident.
Hirose Iku's pupils dilated; she had only seen a black shadow flash by during that attack.
“He’ll wake up in a bit.” Shirakawa Natsu reached out and grabbed him by the back of his collar, tossing him into the car. “Officer Hirose, let’s get down to business.”
Demonstrating strength is also a way of showing force.
Hirose Yu watched as Mifune Takashi's abdomen rose and fell, then calmly took a half-step back: "Please."
Shirakawa Natsumi maintained her smile and followed behind her into the dilapidated one-bedroom apartment in front of them.
The room was fairly clean and had all sorts of furnishings.
It looks like a regular rental room.
As soon as he stepped inside, he noticed his phone had lost signal. A signal jammer had been installed here, and judging from its effectiveness, it was a high-end product.
“This room is equipped with the Metropolitan Police Department’s latest electronic jamming equipment. Mr. Shirakawa, please feel free to speak frankly about any information you may have.” Hirose Iku gestured for him to sit on the sofa. “Would you like some water?”
"No need," Shirakawa Natsu smiled. "Compared to intelligence, I have some doubts. Your colleague just now showed me a lot of hostility, which bothers me. I firmly believe that there is no hatred in the world without a cause."
He wasn't very willing to carry out Huang Mao's mission.
Hirose Yu is quite handsome and dashing. At 25 or 6 years old, he is at the peak of his looks.
However, this kind of second-generation official would be troublesome. Bai Chuanxia already has enough women around him and doesn't want to provoke them easily, but that doesn't stop him from maintaining a relationship with her. After all, she is a woman recognized by the Huangmao app, and he might be able to use her when he needs points in the future.
“I don’t want to cooperate with forces that are hostile to me without a suitable reason,” Shirakawa Natsumi said bluntly.
Hirose Iku looked into his eyes, which were very clear.
She remained silent for a long time before saying softly, "He's my boyfriend. I think he sees you as a man who wants to get close to me."
Hirose Iku did not make any excuses.
"Huh?" Shirakawa Natsu feigned surprise, calculating in her mind to glean two pieces of information from Hirose Iku's answer.
Firstly, Hirose Iku was very concerned about the information he might provide this time, which is why he chose to answer honestly.
