Chapter 13 Computers and Diaries
Chapter 13 Computers and Diaries
"Let's go," Xu Yuan said.
Although Shin Kamiya didn't know what was going on, he could tell that he was looking for something.
Could it be that Lord Xu Yuan has lost something?
Unfortunately, it seems I couldn't find it.
"Are we going home now?" Shin Kamiya asked.
Xu Yuan shook his head, went downstairs, hailed a taxi, and gave them an address.
It is near the address on the resident's certificate.
After getting off the bus, he circled around a few times to make sure no one was following him before walking to his destination, which turned out to be a detached house.
I guess she shares an apartment with someone.
Xu Yuan didn't rush in, but instead let Shiya Shinichi go in first to investigate.
After a while, Shikiya Shinpō returned.
"Lord Xu Yuan, there's no one inside."
"Is there CCTV footage?"
"no."
"You've seen everything from inside the wall?"
"Everything has been checked."
Xu Yuan nodded.
What's the most troublesome thing in modern society?
It's surveillance, of course.
While Shin Kamiya couldn't interfere with the surveillance, he could help him check if there was any surveillance.
Moreover, he can crawl inside walls.
No matter how small the camera is, it can't escape his eyes.
This soul form is quite useful.
After confirming that no one was around and there were no security cameras, Xu Yuan took out the sunglasses he had bought on the way, put them on, and quickly walked over.
Upon reaching the door, he put on rubber gloves, opened the door with the largest key, and immediately changed into disposable shoe covers before heading straight to the second floor.
After using the key to locate the room of the other person, Xu Yuan went inside, closed the door, and locked it.
The room wasn't very big.
It is about 20 square meters.
Bed, wardrobe, desk, air conditioner, dehumidifier...
It has most of the necessary furniture and appliances.
The isotope is not short of money, and although he is low-key, he would not deliberately mistreat himself.
Xu Yuan glanced around and suddenly felt something was wrong.
One thing is missing!
Where's the computer?!
If you don't have a desktop computer, you should at least have a laptop, right?
Where did the computer go?
If it's not on the desk, is it in the schoolbag?
Xu Yuan rummaged through the backpacks on the floor but couldn't find the laptop.
He looked around the room.
Although I didn't think my counterpart would put the laptop in the drawer, I still opened the drawer and checked everything just in case.
However, it still hasn't been found.
"Are there any hidden compartments in this room?" he asked.
"No." Shin Kamiya shook his head, floated back into the wall to check again, and said once more, "No."
Xu Yuan frowned.
He doesn't believe that isotopes don't have computers.
Could it have been taken by someone?
Thinking of this, he picked up his diary.
This is a gray-covered diary with a lock that he found while searching the drawer.
That isotope guy actually keeps a diary.
However, Xu Yuan was not too excited at this moment.
He had a vague sense of unease.
If someone had actually been in this room, there's no reason they would have let this diary go.
It is probably not worth much.
The lock on the diary was very ordinary; it could be opened by fiddling with a wire.
Of course, Xu Yuan doesn't need to go through that much trouble.
He has the key.
Take out the smallest key and open it.
Xu Yuan opened his diary.
The first page had a line of text written on it.
The handwriting was slightly messy and trembled a little.
A new life begins.
He flipped over.
Gone.
There was nothing after that; it was all blank pages.
There were no signs of pages being torn from the diary.
In other words, the isotope only wrote this one sentence.
There wasn't even a date marked.
This sentence may have been written when he first arrived in Japan, filled with excitement as he envisioned his student life.
It could also have been written after breaking up with an ex-girlfriend.
It's alright... It really was at a moment that changed his life that he couldn't help but write it down.
But what's the point of just saying that?
Shin Kamiya speculated, "Could it be that they used invisible ink or something?"
Xu Yuan felt that this possibility was unlikely.
Someone may have already been here.
Since it was left behind, it means it's useless.
But maybe I'm just overthinking it.
Or perhaps the other party misjudged the situation.
Therefore, Xu Yuan decided to take the diary with him.
After searching the house and finding no other clues, he left.
After a whole afternoon of fussing, it was almost evening.
Xu Yuan was not in a good mood.
A rainy night, the rooftop of an abandoned building, a bizarre cause of death, the so-called part-time job discussed in the group chat, the missing laptop, and that sentence in the diary.
All indications suggest that the death of isotopes is not a simple matter.
But all the leads have gone cold.
There were no marks on the body or on the rooftop.
I went through everything on my phone.
There was only one damn sentence in the diary in the room!
How can we investigate now?!
Do you want to check the surveillance footage?
Japan isn't China; it doesn't have that much surveillance.
When Xu Yuan went to that abandoned building to look for clues, he had already noticed that there were no surveillance cameras installed in that area.
Besides, he can't just check the surveillance footage whenever he wants.
Xu Yuan frowned, and the atmosphere immediately became tense.
Shinichi Kamitani stood beside him, too afraid to speak.
"Never mind, let's go eat."
Xu Yuan sighed, his expression returning to calm.
Now that all the leads have gone cold, he has nothing left to worry about.
Instead of dwelling on this, focus on becoming stronger.
As long as he's strong enough, no matter who the murderer is, anyone who dares to cause him trouble will be killed with a single punch.
Moreover, upon closer examination, the murderer might just be an ordinary person.
He couldn't find the killer, but he had no clues.
This does not mean the killer was very strong.
As Xu Yuan was walking down the street, looking for a place to eat, he suddenly spotted two somewhat familiar figures.
The two of them also saw him, their expressions changed simultaneously, and without saying a word, they turned and left.
"Stop!" Xu Yuan shouted.
Upon hearing this, Hayata Takaaki and Katai Kazuo were immediately startled!
Instead of stopping, it took off running!
How could they dare to stand still?
One slap knocked out three teeth!
He kicked him several meters away!
Is this a comic or reality?
hateful!
Did that guy, Kamitani, secretly learn kung fu?!
stop?
Only a fool would stop!
Unfortunately, how could they outrun Xu Yuan?
Soon, the two stood in front of Xu Yuan, their faces full of awkward smiles as they said, "Kami-kun, how have you been?"
Xu Yuan asked with a stern face, "What day of the week is it today?"
The two exchanged a glance: "Friday."
"Do we have school on Friday?"
"Oh? I'll take it."
Upon hearing this, Xu Yuan threw two punches.
Even though he had reduced his strength, the two of them still clutched their stomachs in excruciating pain and collapsed to their knees with a thud.
"So you guys are still wandering around outside?!" Xu Yuan said.
Hayata Takaaki and Katai Kazuo opened their mouths, their voices filled with pain: "School's out..."
"So we can just wander around after school?"
"..."
"Can't you all just read books?"
"..."
"What? Did I say something wrong?"
"No, no, no, you're right. Whatever you say goes."
"Alright, I order you all to get into Tokyo University!"
"???"
