Chapter 868: Smooth and Skillful PryingJudy and Nanakawa Xuan were hiding among the crowd at this time.
They were actually quite embarrassed that their students and good friends were thought to have done something shameful.
However, when Nanakawa Xuan saw the man, he couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise:
"It's you?!"
"Xiao Xuan, do you know this guy?"
Suzuki Sonoko knew that if she wanted to ease the embarrassment, she could only change the subject, so she followed Nanakawa Aya's question and shifted all the questions to the man.
"Well...of course I know him."
Nanakawa Xuan frowned: "He is the company employee I mentioned...but why is he here?"
“Eh, eh eh eh?!”
Suzuki Sonoko was obviously confused. "Didn't you say that the company employee had the air of a scholar? This guy has a scruffy beard...ah!"
As a healthy female high school student, Suzuki Sonoko feels that there are some things that should not be said out loud.
For example, loser or something.
In short, I almost spoke Tibetan.
"I think this is because he hasn't had time to tidy it up yet."
Mao Lilan felt the sense of the female high school detective calling to her, so she began to reason: "He usually comes here to buy razors, towels and the like. I think it is to tidy up his appearance. After all, he has been hiding in the ceiling. If he doesn't tidy up well, he will look very sloppy."
"ceiling?"
Nanakawa Xuan was stunned for a moment.
Judy looked at the man and pretended to be surprised.
But in fact, as an FBI agent, she was not surprised at all.
In the United States, there are many cases of breaking into other people's homes.
You can even come and take over the magpie's nest.
"Actually, this was all discovered by Senior Fujino. I don't know the details very well..."
Xiaolan did not continue to explain. Although being a detective felt pretty good, she still felt that it would be better for her not to take over the reins too much and not to encroach on the fruits of other people's labor.
"This guy used the opening in the bathroom ceiling to climb up and live there."
Fujino let the man go and casually took over the conversation, "As for Nanakawa being wrongly accused... he should be the culprit. After all, he lives on the ceiling of the convenience store. If he was hungry, he would definitely run down and eat a lot, and then take some back after eating."
"It's like a rat living in the ceiling."
"There is a lot of garbage on the ceiling now. As long as we compare it with the lost barcodes, we should be able to determine the source of those items..."
As he spoke, Fujino looked at the store manager in the crowd and said, "How about it, Mr. Manager? This evidence should be enough to clear Nanakawa of the suspicion of stealing those goods, right?"
The store manager who was directly @ in front of a group of people was confused.
After all, he never thought from the beginning to the end that someone would live on the ceiling of his store.
He just thought that it was Nanakawa Xuan who stole the things and he refused to admit it.
His face looked strange, and he couldn't help wondering, "But why did this guy come out to steal things when Xuan was on duty? Why didn't he steal when others were out? Otherwise, I wouldn't have misunderstood..."
"When someone slaps you, why doesn't he hit others but only you?"
Fujino first glanced at the store manager as if he was a fool, not wanting to waste too much time talking, and then looked at the man behind him: "What is the specific reason, you explain it yourself."
"thump!"
After being criticized by Fujino to this extent, the man did a standard kneeling gesture, admitted his mistake, and began his confession.
As for why he chose Xiaoxuan, it was simply because Xiaoxuan was too diligent and usually kept the goods in order... and others on duty did not move the boxes, so he did not dare to move the boxes because he felt guilty and was afraid of being discovered.
After some explanation, the store manager successfully forgave him and hired him as a clerk to compensate for the things he had stolen during this period. As for the reason for forgiveness...
It is said that he opened the convenience store after being fired from the company.
After listening to the man's story, I felt empathy for him. The scene was as touching as an inspirational movie.
Fujino was extremely speechless about this action, but he could understand it. Strictly speaking, this store manager was a good person, but his appearance and tone were a bit scary. Otherwise, he would not just ask the wronged Nanakawa Xuan to repent, but should directly call the police and demand compensation.
Mao Lilan and others were not impressed by this scene.
She put her hands on her hips and looked at the two helplessly: "You two, now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, shouldn't you admit your mistakes to Xiao Xuan?"
Suzuki Sonoko on the side was filled with righteous indignation: "That's right, Xiao Xuan was wronged by you and she even cried!"
“Private Marseille!”
“Private Marseille with red bean paste!”
Both of them seemed a little embarrassed when they heard this, and bowed 90 degrees to Nanakawa Xuan on the spot.
"..."
Fujino looked at the two speechlessly, thinking: "As expected of a former company dog, the bowing and squatting postures are standard."
"Thanks to you, Mr. Fujino. Thank you very much!"
"And Sonoko, Xiaolan, you too..."
Nanakawa Aya was very happy that the suspicion that had been surrounding her for a month or two had been cleared up, and she smiled the bright smile of an adolescent girl.
"So, what are your plans next?"
"Intend?"
Nanakawa Aya was completely confused by Fujino's question.
Fujino was not interested in words of thanks.
This thing can't be eaten...
Snow King Ice City is in need of manpower right now.
His main concern now is to steal someone else's girlfriend.
So, he mentioned his real purpose: "After what you've done, do you still want to stay in this convenience store?"
"Well..."
Fujino said skillfully: "Speaking of which, I recently opened a branch of a beverage store next to the Mika Station. Now I am short of staff. If you are interested, you can go and take a look. I will give you double the salary you make here."
"I……"
Nanakawa Xuan glanced at the store manager.
The store manager lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly.
Nanakawa Aya's salary is actually very low, only 900 yen per hour.
Even if you work full-time, it would only be a little over 150,000 yen a month.
Moreover, high school students usually have unstable working hours, and most businesses cannot offer them high wages based on daily wages.
He couldn't afford double the salary, after all, he was a stingy person.
Otherwise, they would not turn off the surveillance at night.
"It's okay. Just think about it first. If you've made up your mind, please contact me anytime. I'm always here to serve you."
Fujino took out a business card of Snow King Bingcheng from his pocket. On the business card was printed the Snow King Bingcheng's logo, his phone number and Miyano Akemi's phone number.
"I will seriously consider it."
Nanakawa Xuan accepted the business card, obviously tempted by the double salary.
After all, this is double the salary, who wouldn’t be tempted?
Generally speaking, hardworking workers like Nanakawa Aya are hard to come by.
Fujino felt that double salary was not excessive. Even if he could only come on weekends, one person could do the work of several people who only worked for free.
Sonoko and Xiaolan were confused as they watched Fujino solve the case first and then steal the girl's girlfriend.
Why is Fujino's method of prying people away so smooth and skillful?
Why does it feel like the senior has been waiting for this moment?
