"Isaka Shinkuro, a professional doctor, but he disappeared many years ago and was counted as a missing person. But! The truth is~"
"The Sonosaki family was attracted by his obsession with Gaia's memory and recruited him into the museum," Philip's tone had just stretched out when Sonosaki Kirihiko shook his head and told the result.
Philip put his hands on his hips, very dissatisfied with Sonosaki Kirihiko's complete lack of respect.
"Uh - Kirihiko, let me ask you a question, don't be angry." Reid, who lost to Kiryu Sento and Manjo Ryu in the rock-paper-scissors game, had no choice but to stand up. He asked awkwardly, "Isaka Shinkorou's status in the museum is higher than yours... or lower than yours."
Sonosaki Kirihiko's eyes twitched. He already knew what Red wanted to ask.
"He is in charge of the development of Gaia memory, and I am in charge of sales. We are not in the same department."
"But wasn't it because of your good performance that the old man of the Sonosaki family took a fancy to you, Kirihiko, and recruited you to be the son-in-law of the Sonosaki family? From this point of view, your status should be higher than that of Isaka Mikurou," Reid analyzed with his chin in his hand, raised his hand and patted Sonosaki Kirihiko on the shoulder with a look of regret on his face, "I'm sorry."
"Me too."
"I'm sorry, too."
Kiryu Sento and Manjo Ryuga held Sonosaki Kirihiko in the middle, one on each side.
The corner of Sonosaki Kirihiko's mouth twitched fiercely.
To be honest, he didn't feel sad at all.
After Red's analysis and Kiryu Sento and Banko Ryu's comfort, he suddenly felt so sad that his little pearls were about to fall.
But as an adult, especially an adult who works in sales, Sonosaki Kirihiko has a strong heart and rich experience in managing facial expressions.
"Thank you for your concern, but the real trouble right now is the rumor that appeared with Ms. Saeko," Sonosaki Kirihiko smiled bitterly.
“Saeko Sonosaki holds the museum’s true legacy in her hands.”
"The real legacy?"
Red raised his head and tilted his head to look at Philip.
"So, you are a fake inheritance?"
"Eh?!"
Philip was also surprised, but he quickly understood what was happening.
"I am responsible for making Gaia Memory, but that doesn't mean that I am the only one who can produce Gaia Memory in the museum. Moreover, I am not involved in the operation of the museum. It seems that the museum is hiding some other secrets. Wait a minute, I will go check it out."
After saying that, Philip closed his eyes. It seemed that he entered the Earth's memory to search for memories about the museum. But in less than thirty seconds, Philip opened his eyes with an embarrassed expression.
"Failed?" Reid raised his eyes.
"Ahem - I don't have permission to access this section," Philip coughed, his eyes flickering.
Just now she confidently said that she would take care of everything, but in less than thirty seconds, she failed.
Shame on you——
"Wait, let me try again!"
Having said that, Philip re-entered the Earth Museum without giving up, but just like before, no matter how she visited, the part about the museum was not displayed.
From Philip's reaction, Red knew that this attempt had also failed.
But this also proves from the side that the heritage exists.
And the legacy of this museum lies in the hands of Sonosaki Saeko.
Then things become troublesome.
When the Sonosaki family was alive, naturally no one dared to touch the museum's property, but now the Sonosaki family has been ruined, and Sonosaki Saeko is the only member of the family left.
The recent friction between the Beast Gang and the Mafia has gone beyond the level of armed fighting due to the existence of strengthening potions. The museum's heritage has a fatal attraction for them. If they can get it, they will become the new Sonosaki family.
And it's definitely not just the Beast Gang and the Mafia that have similar ideas.
This is also why Sonosaki Kirihiko hurried back to talk about this matter.
"Kirihiko, what do you think this inheritance will be?" Reid looked at Sonosaki Kirihiko, the son-in-law of the Sonosaki family and the museum's former best salesman.
Sonosaki Kirihiko gave a bitter smile and said nothing, but everyone present already knew the answer, and they took turns to hug Sonosaki Kirihiko and comfort him.
In the eyes of Sonozaki Ryu's guards, Sonozaki Kirihiko has never been the son-in-law of the Sonozaki family, but just a useful chess piece and an experimental subject of Nazca Gaia's memory.
Sonozaki Kirihiko probably didn't know as many secrets about the Sonozaki family as Isaka Shinkoro who has just emerged.
"Although I don't know what the museum's heritage is, since even Philip can't access that part, it is most likely the real secret of the Sonosaki family. No matter who gets it, it may cause considerable trouble." Reid supported his waist with his left hand and raised his right hand to shake the fingers left and right.
"Kirihiko, don't get involved in this matter."
When he heard that Red didn't want him to participate, Sonosaki Kirihiko immediately became agitated, but seeing Red's helpless look, Sonosaki Kirihiko immediately understood that Red didn't distrust him, but was simply worried that he knew something bad.
"I understand, but I hope to see Miss Saeko again in the end," Sonosaki Kirihiko was not an impulsive person. After thinking about the pros and cons, he smiled bitterly and nodded.
"Really? Don't make it sound like I'm planning to kill Sonosaki Saeko." Red spread his hands and smiled easily before his face turned serious. "But Kirihiko, if Sonosaki Saeko commits an absolutely unforgivable crime—"
"I know, please give her the punishment she deserves."
Reid was silent for a moment and then exhaled, "Then let's start the action. Battle Rabbit, the Beast Gang and the Mafia will definitely take action this time if there is a chance."
"Follow them to find the production site of the strengthening potion, right? Just leave it to me," Kiryu Battle Rabbit raised his fingers and snapped them.
"I'll leave it to you," Red nodded, turned around and raised his hand to knock on the head of Philip, who still had his eyes closed. "Also, don't try to find it in the Earth Library. It's probably blocked by someone with higher authority than you. You should think about it from a more practical direction."
Philip opened his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest, unwillingly, but what Red said was the truth.
"Kirihiko, where were Sonosaki Saeko and Isaka Mikurou last seen together?"
Red decided to start investigating from the places where Sonosaki Saeko had appeared. It was no mistake that a person who had disappeared for a while and carried the inheritance that everyone coveted suddenly appeared.
No matter it is a trap or a deliberate guidance, it is necessary to go to the scene and take a look. If you are lucky, you might run into other people who are tracking Sonosaki Saeko.
Red is very confident in his negotiation ability. With his logical and emotional negotiation, the other party will definitely be willing to share information with him.
Chapter 674: Asking for Reward from the God of Death
Considering that no one knew what would happen during the investigation, and the place where Sonosaki Saeko last appeared was a bit subtle, Red originally planned to act alone. However, when he went downstairs and was about to board Mobile Pegasus, he found that Medusa, wearing a doll suit, was standing behind him like a ghost.
Although Medusa didn't say a word, Red knew he had to take her with him.
Because Medusa is wearing a large doll leather suit, riding Mobile Pegasus would look a bit bulky and weird, and most importantly, it is too eye-catching.
Red had no choice but to take the subway which he had not seen for a long time.
In this society where weirdos and humans coexist, it's not just humans waiting for the subway, there are also weirdos of all shapes and sizes. If you were to walk around in the subway wearing a doll suit somewhere else, you'd probably attract a lot of attention, but in [S·L], no one would even look at you.
The Pleiades District is some distance away from the Xingxiu District. It takes at least 40 minutes by subway. It is somewhat boring to sit there. Red originally planned to play the Alien game to kill time, but Medusa, who didn't have a cell phone and didn't seem to know how to use one, sat next to him and stared at him without saying a word.
Even Red couldn't ignore Medusa's gaze.
Red had no choice but to put down his phone.
"Medusa, I've actually always been curious, why did you look for Inamori-san before?"
Medusa's attitude towards Mayu Inamori can only be described in two words: don't care.
So he was very surprised when Medusa proposed to meet Mayu Inamori. When he found out that Mayu Inamori actually got along well with Medusa, his eyes almost popped out of his head in surprise.
"I asked her if she had a boyfriend."
"Ah~ Is that what's going on?"
"..."
"Eh!?"
Red nodded, and after swaying for a long moment his eyes widened.
The statement that the part of Inamori Misa in her heart awakened after seeing Inamori Mayu does not hold true for Phantom.
Phantoms are born from the desperate remains of people with magician qualifications. Most of them don't even have the memory of their previous lives, and even if they do remember, they don't care at all.
You can tell from Medusa's attitude towards Mayu Inamori before that she remembered it, but didn't care at all.
Now Medusa actually told her that she had previously looked for Mayu Inamori because she wanted to ask her if she had a boyfriend?
"Medusa, you..."
"Inamori Misa is dead. That was a question I asked of my own volition."
"Uh, okay," Red scratched his face, put his hands behind his head and thought for a while, but still couldn't help his curiosity, "So why did you suddenly ask Mayu Inamori if she has a boyfriend."
"It doesn't matter anymore."
"Eh--"
After that, Red kept probing Medusa indirectly, wanting to know why Gao suddenly became unimportant. Unfortunately, although Medusa answered every question of his, once this question was mentioned, it became unimportant.
The crisp sound of the subway arrival bell reminded Red that they had arrived at their destination.
Red had no choice but to get off the car with Medusa first.
Medusa frowned as soon as she left the train suit, because the subway station was dirty and messy. The trash cans were not only crammed to the brim, but also most of her body was buried in the garbage.
No. 66, Angsu District.
【S·L】The largest slum, at the same time...
"Oh, here comes a clean little brother, do you want to come to your sister's place and experience the feeling of heaven?"
Before Red could move, the woman who was leaning against the map mark and smoking took a fancy to Red, and came towards him with her high heels, twisting her hips and smiling seductively.
Before he even got close to Red, he could smell the strong perfume that made his head hurt and the choking smell of cigarettes.
It is also the largest red-light district.
Before the woman could get close to Medusa, who was wearing a doll suit, stood in front of the woman, raised her hand to grab the woman's neck and kicked her up. The cold murderous intent made the woman, who was about to curse, turn pale in an instant.
"Yes, I'm sorry, I recognized the wrong person, I, I'll leave now!"
"Humph--"
Medusa snorted coldly and let go of the woman. The woman turned around and limped away without a second thought.
"Thanks," Red breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and frowned subconsciously.
The air conditioning is on 24 hours a day in the subway station, so as the largest slum and red-light district, there are many people living in the subway station. The more sophisticated ones set up a small tent, the less sophisticated ones made a small house out of cardboard, and the wilder ones just lay on the ground.
There were many women like the one just now, but because of the intimidation from Medusa just now, no one dared to approach.
Reid took out a photo from his arms. In the photo, Sonosaki Saeko was holding Isaka Shinkoro's arm and walking towards a hotel with a smile on her face.
Sonosaki Kirihiko, my friend, don't be sad.
There's no use being sad.
Red silently made the sign of the cross on his chest.
Just as Red and Medusa were about to leave the subway station through the passage, a homeless man suddenly stood up and asked, "Are you here for the museum's heritage as well?"
and also?
Red paused and turned to look, but before he could say anything, the homeless man rubbed his fingers together.
Medusa immediately became unhappy and planned to lift up the hood's mouth to petrify this bold guy.
Red raised his hand to stop Medusa, took out his wallet, pulled out the O coin voucher and handed it to the homeless man.
Now that the number of O coins has increased and the price has depreciated, even if you drag a truckload of O coins, it is not enough to spend. Therefore, Hongshang Fund has issued a large number of vouchers, which not only facilitates people but also keeps O coins firmly in their hands.
"Wow - you're really a good guy," the homeless man's eyes lit up and he quickly stuffed the voucher into his pocket. "Recently, a lot of guys have come here, and they seem to be looking for a woman, but hey - their target is actually Doctor Prospect."
"Doctor Prospect?" Reid blinked.
Another name I haven't heard of.
"Ah~ He's a pretty powerful guy," the homeless man chuckled, "I heard that he's conducting experiments on creating superpowers here, and has already created a group of superpowers with very strong telekinesis."
"Eh--"
Red nodded thoughtfully and handed over another voucher.
“What does this have to do with the museum’s legacy.”
"The museum is one of the investors of Dr. Prospect, and~ just a few hours ago, someone in a white uniform appeared here." The tramp looked around and lowered his voice, "It might be Consortium X!"
"Thanks."
"You're welcome, young man. You're a straightforward person," the homeless man waved his hand with a smile, watched Red leave, then sat back and spread out the vouchers happily.
Not long after, another group of people appeared at the subway station. There were four men and one woman. The woman looked very good at fighting. One of the men was obviously a macho. One looked like an emotionless killer. One looked very strong but his movements were very effeminate. And one... Shamatte? He seemed to be the weakest among them.
The homeless man who had just tasted the sweetness walked over without thinking, rubbing his fingers together, but the next second he was pinned to the ground by the man in his eyes.
