Akiko slapped Shotaro's head hard, speaking in a tone of disappointment.
With the recent development of the internet, firms can now generate more business opportunities through online platforms.
"It hurts!" Shotaro rubbed his head, his face contorted in pain.
"If we can't get ahead of others in information and intelligence, where will we find clients?"
...........
Akiko said seriously, after all, running a detective agency is extremely expensive.
"Um, I have a request."
The old man approached slowly, his voice very weak. Shotaro and Akiko were too busy arguing to hear him at all.
"Okay, I'm going to take the picture now."
Akiko beat up Shotaro Hidari, then, panting, rearranged the camera. Looking at Shotaro Hidari, who was bent over and groaning in pain, she showed no pity whatsoever.
"Okay, here you go, eggplant."
Akiko casually handed the green slippers to Shotaro, who took them instinctively. The pain made him somewhat confused. After hastily taking the photos, Akiko calmed down a lot. The neglected old man also posed for a photo.
"Alright, let me see how the photos turned out." Akiko quickly picked up the camera, and her face turned pale instantly when she saw the old man in the photo.
7125
76Z68
"A ghost photo!!!"
Akiko's body trembled.
His face was etched with fear.
"what are you talking about?"
Shotaro Zuo said, somewhat bewildered, then picked up the camera and his eyes widened instantly.
Shotaro and Akiko felt a chill run down their spines, as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, and their hair stood on end!
The elderly man curiously leaned closer to look at the photo while apologizing, "I'm so sorry."
“Ahhhh——!!!”
As soon as he spoke, Akiko and Shotaro screamed instantly. Akiko even collapsed to the ground, her face full of terror.
The old man looked at the two people with some confusion, not understanding what he had done wrong to frighten them to this extent.
Is he so scary?
"Honestly, you guys are so noisy!"
At this moment, Philip walked over, displeased.
He frowned as he looked at the chaotic scene.
"What on earth is going on?" Philip sighed, annoyed that he had been interrupted from reading.
"Why are you here?!!"
The old man saw Philip and instinctively asked a question. Philip looked at the unfamiliar old man with suspicion, but before Philip could ask, the old man quickly waved his hand and said:
"No...nothing."
Philip didn't investigate further, assuming the old man had mistaken him for someone else. He knew his memory was excellent and couldn't possibly be wrong.
Do you know Philip?
Shotaro noticed that something was off about the old man's expression and asked him a question.
"No, I don't know him!"
"I've mistaken you for someone else!!!"
The old man waved his hands frantically, glancing instinctively at Philip with a somewhat flustered expression.
Philip and Shotaro exchanged a glance.
Although everyone found it strange.
But he didn't say anything.
"By the way, who are you?"
Akiko then realized she had forgotten to ask the ghost-like old man his name.
"I'm looking for someone."
The old man hurriedly said, frantically rummaging through his bag for an old photograph, its surface marked by the passage of time. "The photograph shows my family members who were separated from me ten years ago."
Akiko looked curiously at the family of three in the photo; they seemed to be getting along very well.
Shotaro Satoshi was still not recovered from the old man's somewhat suspicious expression.
Philip turned away and started doodling in the book; he wasn't interested in such trivial matters.
At that moment, they had no idea that the arrival of this listless and deaf client meant that their fate would be completely changed from this day forward!
......and.
Chapter Eighty-Nine: Meeting Philip! Adding to the mix! The locust-like purple-haired woman!
"Sorry to keep you waiting, sir. We have prepared a room for you."
The man in the white suit standing in front of the hotel reception was handsome. He nodded slightly, took the room key, and as he turned around, he bumped into a woman with purple hair.
However, it was just a slight bump.
No one fell or anything.
"They're coming out soon, bugs."
The man pointed to the box in the woman's hand.
He said, frowning.
The box in the purple-haired woman's hand was full of wriggling worms.
"Want to eat?"
The heavily made-up woman carefully chewed the insects, looking completely satisfied, showing no disgust or sense of being an oddity in the eyes of others.
She even reached out and handed the box to the man, sharing the food. The man was completely stunned, and the keys in his hand instantly fell to the ground.
"no need."
The man calmly and naturally bent down and quickly picked up the keys. His good upbringing prevented him from doing anything out of line, so he quickly turned and left.
"This is delicious."
The girl dressed in Lolita fashion didn't seem to care and picked up another worm, putting it in her mouth. The delicious taste exploded in her mouth instantly.
He had a satisfied look on his face.
He then took out his phone and reported:
"The X89 Consortium members, 6, are here. 60."
After hanging up the phone, she skipped and hopped in the opposite direction from the person.
Next, she was going to carry out a mission.
...
After the museum came into the public eye, the existence of the Gaia Memory became more widely accepted and people were more willing to use it. There was no way around it; it had all sorts of powerful and interesting abilities, plus the new version of the Gaia Memory had no toxins and didn't require surgery.
Who wouldn't want to try it out?
Therefore, during this period, the museum either gifted or sold a large number of Gaia Memory Entities to the people of Fengdu, and those who used these Gaia Memory Entities were subtly influenced to become loyal to Lu Chen.
Everything went smoothly.
However, the mission "533" to subdue the Sonozaki family and the Kamen Riders was still just one step away from completion. Therefore, Lu Chen decided not to wait any longer and went directly to Shotaro and the others...
showdown!
......
Shotaro became suspicious and secretly investigated the identity of the strange old man.
"Xiao Xiang!"
"Your sixth sense is really accurate!"
The monitor sighed on the phone.
He went to great lengths and finally found out the old man's background.
"That man you mentioned is no ordinary person," the monitor said, his voice tinged with apprehension.
"..."
"Really? I understand."
"That man was definitely suspicious!"
Shotaro chuckled coldly, then quickly hung up the phone and headed towards the office.
