Let's finish up these few days' business first, get through this period, and then try to get the information out of Yukino, or try with other people who have been in contact with Luo Feng to find out the specific details of the transaction.

Only by knowing the specifics can she come up with a solution.

Moreover, this is on the premise that Yukinoshita's family must be stable.

Absolutely avoid stocks; they'll likely continue to trigger circuit breakers. For now, stick to the conventional route.

Damn it, I should have known that my mother would have designs on Yukino, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. I was still dealing with family issues when she went straight there.

In addition, he was taken back for questioning after the shooting, missing the best opportunity...

Stay calm, you must stay calm...

I mustn't show any unusual behavior lately, lest I worry Yukino.

I will handle it well, I will definitely handle it well.

Yukino, wait for me.

…………

At the same time, the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

Yukino Yukinoshita went to work with a somewhat uneasy feeling. She had dark circles under her eyes, clearly indicating that she hadn't slept well the night before.

Yesterday, while investigating the case, she became increasingly worried and uneasy.

Even without breaking the law, there are many things that can harm you. Being forced to shout "I have flat chests" in the street is just embarrassing. But what if he asked you to work part-time in a brothel?

It's terrifying to even think about!

Although Yukino Yukinoshita is upright and proud, that does not mean she is fearless.

So many tough guys couldn't withstand it during wartime, how could she, who was born in peacetime, possibly withstand it?

Especially since Luo Feng doesn't contact her or ask her to do anything, it makes her more prone to overthinking.

At first, it was fine. She was already intimidated by her mother and had no choice but to sign. But after signing, she realized how deep the pitfall was.

That contract certainly has no legal effect, but is it possible for her to talk about law with the devil? Would it be useful?

Looking back now, it would have been the best outcome if Luo Feng had only been lusting after her body.

Although she hasn't had a boyfriend for so many years, it's a bit of a pity that she ended up with him like this... But she's an adult, and she still has to take on the responsibilities she should.

"Under the snow, under the snow?"

"Yes, what's up?" Yukino Yukinoshita was sitting behind her desk. Her boss called her twice before she responded.

She is a detective in the Fourth Division of the First Investigative Division of the Metropolitan Police Department, which is equivalent to the position of Miwako Sato in Detective Conan. She has reached this position at a young age, and it is almost certain that she will become a police inspector in a few years, provided that the Yukinoshita family does not run into trouble.

"Why do you look so tired?" The boss frowned slightly, then relaxed. "Your sister must have been terrified yesterday, right?"

“My sister is fine.” Yukino Yukinoshita shook her head.

"Hmm." The superior nodded: "Don't worry, this is the Metropolitan Police Department. If you want to help her, this is the place you can help her."

"I understand." Yukino Yukinoshita couldn't help but relax a little.

Yeah, this is the Metropolitan Police Department. Even if that guy is incredibly powerful, how could he possibly influence this place?

This is the country's legal authority, a place impervious to all evil.

"Your sister was also at the scene of last night's shooting. Do you have any clues?" The boss sat down opposite Yukino Yukinoshita.

“I can’t find anything. I’ve read the statements. When he went in, no one should have noticed the presence of the firearms. There’s no possibility that he brought them in through the entrance. In the garden, he didn’t contact anyone and didn’t leave anyone’s sight.” Yukino Yukinoshita said thoughtfully.

In the past, she would have thought that the other person's technique was superb and that there were details she was unaware of.

But after getting to know Luo Feng, she felt that this might be a supernatural case?

Could his gun have really appeared out of thin air?

"Someone who hasn't received special training has such marksmanship. It doesn't seem right at all. Is he hiding his skills very well, or is he just incredibly lucky?" The superior was puzzled.

Every shot hits its mark, and the way the enemy is hit is symmetrical. If this is just luck, you'd be more likely to get struck by lightning every day.

"The cause has been identified," Yukino Yukinoshita said. "It was a revenge killing. Inoue had an affair with the perpetrator's wife and sister."

"Yes, now all that's missing is the source of the gun." The superior stood up: "This incident is extremely serious, we must find out the truth."

“I think he really deserves to die,” Yukino Yukinoshita said softly.

“We are police officers,” the superior said seriously. “Even if he deserves to die, he should die under the law, not through a revenge killing. One thing at a time.”

“I know.” Yukino Yukinoshita nodded.

The boss left Yukino's side.

The only special thing about this case is that Haruno happened to be present and had a previous phone call record with Inoue, but no matter how you investigate, this connection is broken and it's impossible for her to have any connection with Yukinoshita Haruno.

The boss came to ask Yukino not because of her high case-solving rate, but simply to see if Haruno had any clues he didn't know about.

After all, the people brought back yesterday to give statements were all important figures, so they couldn't ask them detailed questions.

It's really absurd to handle cases in Tokyo, because many cases are simply impossible to solve.

Looking at the documents in front of her, Yukino had a bizarre idea for some reason: she wanted to call Luo Feng and ask if he knew any clues.

As a police officer, she was always competent, conscientious, unburdened, and professional, always leading by example. Her mother hinted several times that she should use her position for personal gain, but she always managed to deflect the hints.

She even went so far as to advise her mother not to do those things.

In Yukinoshita Saori's eyes, she was definitely not a good daughter, but among the common people, at least some fairness could be found in her.

"Phew, I don't even know that guy's phone number," Yukino muttered to herself.

"I can tell you."

"Ah!" Yukino was startled by the sudden sound and immediately stood up.

She suddenly realized that everyone in the police station had stopped moving, and everyone except her and Luo Feng had turned black and white.

"You, you..." Yukino was just thinking that this was a legal institution, and they just let a devil sneak in like this?

What about Japan's native deities? Are they just sitting idly by?

Also, since there are demons, shouldn't there be superhumans too? Let's drive them away!

"What do you want from me?" Yukino forced herself to remain calm.

"Nothing, just wanted to tell you my phone number." Luo Feng typed his phone number and email address into her notebook as if no one else was there: "I didn't stop time in this world, I just slowed down your time infinitely to the point of stopping. They're fine."

After writing down the number, Luo Feng looked at Xue Nai and smiled, "Remember to call me if you need anything."

"Did you commit this crime?" Since Luo Feng was there, Yukino asked, voicing her doubts: "Was it done by a supernatural being?"

"Guess," Luo Feng said, lowering his hat brim. "If you want to know the answer to anything, you can ask me, but only if you make a deal with me."

"I...I'm not already..."

"It's not that deal. Your soul is pledged to me, and I only need your service for one year. How about it, want to renew?" Luo Feng raised his head: "Interested in an annual membership?"

"I will not sign any more contracts," Yukino Yukinoshita said decisively, taking a deep breath.

"Hmm, I see." Luo Feng turned and left. "I'm leaving now. I'm still thinking about what I should ask you to do, like, perform a pole dance at the Metropolitan Police Department? Tsk, that sounds interesting."

Yukino trembled all over; she didn't know if Luo Feng would really do that!

She was certain that Luo Feng could do it...

Chapter 051? A Kind Devil?

Yukino Yukinoshita spent three days in this anxious state, but when she realized that Luo Feng was no longer looking for her, she couldn't help but feel relieved.

If her family's situation hadn't improved so much, even returning to its former state, she would have truly believed it was all a dream.

The previous shooting incidents ultimately came to nothing.

She couldn't possibly ask Luo Feng, so she could only attribute it to a supernatural event and sealed the file.

She drove home, intending to do her usual evening study on some cases to improve her efficiency. But as usual, she found an uninvited guest as soon as she opened the door.

She had already finished get off work and couldn't possibly be carrying a gun. Her instinct was to back out and call the police.

She had seen too many cases where lone heroes were ultimately killed while the criminals went unpunished; she knew she must never act impulsively.

"came back?"

Luo Feng's voice rang out in the room.

He didn't turn on the lights or watch TV; he was just playing on his phone. "Come in," he said.

"What do you want from me?" Yukino asked warily.

She hadn't seen Luo Feng for three days and thought he had forgotten about her. Just as she lowered her guard, he came knocking on her door.

"What are you doing? Guess?" Luo Feng's gaze fell on Yukino, and he opened his eyes slightly.

Since there were no lights on in the room, only the light from a cell phone, when he turned his head and opened his eyes, Yukino was so startled by the bright crimson in his eyes that she instinctively took a half step back.

Looking into his eyes, Yukino pulled up her neatly trimmed collar, gritted her teeth, and seemed somewhat hesitant.

It's finally here?

Seeing that Luo Feng had only come for this reason, Yukino Yukinoshita felt a sense of relief for some reason.

As a result, Luo Feng glanced at Yukino Yukinoshita's chest and revealed a somewhat disdainful expression.

You're already working, and your salary is as high as silver. How can you be so shameless?

"What are you looking at!" Yukino Yukinoshita didn't know why, but she was inexplicably annoyed by his gaze.

Isn't that why you made a contract with me?

“Ginzi is on leave today, you’ll cover her work.” Luo Feng stood up and walked to Yukino.

"Are you taking leave?" Yukino Yukinoshita was taken aback. "What kind of work?"

She found it somewhat inexplicable that Luo Feng would use words like "leave of absence" and "work."

The girl I saw that day seemed to be just doing normal house cleaning? Is this what he meant by "job"?

Could this be a benevolent devil?

"It's just helping me run the shop, nothing difficult," Luo Feng said with a slight smile.
