i'm not a detective

Chapter 68

Today's dinner at Qiyuan's family is relatively simple. Qiyuan Wu only made a "full-color ball" with the meatballs he had nothing to do last night, including shrimp balls, fish balls, pork balls, beef balls, mutton balls, and chicken balls. Yes, the flavors are different but can be integrated together by the broth and fresh juice. The whole dish is soft and tender, the juice is delicious, and it is definitely a top-grade delicacy.

A psychic chef with an emperor's tongue, a police dog's nose, and hypermemory is willing to start with the preparation of the ingredients, select the ingredients, and do every process by himself. He spends three or four hours carefully crafting, even if it is not a complicated dish , the taste is still amazing, and it is estimated that it is enough to fight a dozen in the King of Chefs Competition.

But Qingjian Liuli didn't care about these delicious meatballs now, and let Qiyuan Wu pick out his favorite food first, but said in surprise: "Guida-san committed suicide and cheated insurance? What's going on?"

Takeshi Qiyuan stuffed a big beef ball into his mouth, tasted the elastic texture and the thick gravy that came out as soon as he bit into it, and said vaguely: "Atsushi Kameda is a poor man who was shot to death by the tide of the times. I lost my job, but kept it a secret from my family. The salary I got back every month was earned by doing odd jobs with all my strength. Before I saw his family’s passbook, it was a little strange. In the past year, his income has continued to decrease, and only occasionally As a result, his wife has been forced to use the meager family savings to guarantee her life, and it is getting more and more difficult for him to earn money if he wants to do odd jobs, so he simply committed suicide and cheated insurance."

Qing Jian Liuli recalled Atsushi Kameda's work clothes and labor insurance gloves in the broken cardboard boxes. If he realized something, but he didn't realize it completely, he felt very aggrieved, and said unhappily: "Who can understand when you say that... ..."

"Let's talk about it according to the timeline, but I'm just guessing. I can't guarantee that it's completely right. I can only say that it's about the same." Qiyuan Wu is easy to talk now. He has the habit of chatting when eating. Bian said, "The cause of the incident probably happened nearly a year ago. You should know about the collapse of the bubble economy. It once triggered a chain of bankruptcy, and even several large banks went bankrupt, let alone ordinary enterprises.

I guess the company that Atsushi Kameda was working for at that time was a little bit overwhelmed and wanted to lay off employees, but Japan mainly uses the "lifetime employment, seniority system" and it is not so easy to lay off employees. If you are not careful, you will destroy the tradition and ruin your reputation. , and even being sued for "wrongful dismissal" for improper operation will lose a lot of money, so Japanese companies usually don't just say that they want to lay off employees. It is to hope that employees will put the company's survival as the most important thing, leave voluntarily, and transfer to other companies to work.

Atsushi Kameda is probably on the list. He is in his 40s, his energy has long been drained by work, and his ability has not kept up with the changes of the times. He does the same job, and his salary may be more than twice that of the newcomer, so it is natural to streamline him.

He will definitely not be happy. He has worked in the company for 20 and a half years. He definitely doesn’t want to leave. He just wants to stay in the company and wait for retirement, or there are other reasons, including the voluntary resignation campaign. It’s not suitable for him to find a good next home. It's possible that he doesn't want to go if the salary is too low or something like that. "

When Qiyuan Wu said this, he ate another ball, took a small sip of soup, and Qing Jian Liuli was stunned. For a young girl in the first year of high school, lifelong employment and voluntary resignation are really too far away. But she could understand more or less, and asked hesitantly, "Then what's next?"

"It's time for Saigura Harumi to appear next." Nanahara Takeshi raised his eyebrows when he mentioned this person, and said calmly, "Atsushi Kameda is unwilling to take the initiative to sacrifice to reduce the burden on the company. Nao, he's a thorn in the side, the company's HR department definitely can't spare him, probably secretly found Aiura from the affiliated company, and asked him to seduce Atsushi Kameda in private, and let him suddenly discover that Atsushi Kameda is a rare talent in a thousand years, and his working ability is simply amazing. He is so strong that he is willing to offer him a very lucrative job contract.

On the one hand, the old company that has worked for 20 years since graduating from university wants to reduce the burden. Just thinking about the company... He was so stupid and honest. He probably left his job voluntarily and joined Harimitsu Aigura's small company just out of gratitude for his old company. "

Qingjian Liuli couldn't believe it when she heard this, "Is...is this possible? Is there really someone in this world... so, so despicable?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Qing saw that Liuli was out of mind, Qiyuan Wu finished the most delicious part first, and later prepared to serve her soup with rice, and said: "Yes, there is progress, you can probably guess the following What will happen, but this can only be regarded as normal. Some people have hearts that are darker than mine... well, they are darker than coal. For their own interests, or to protect themselves in order to meet performance requirements, things will happen in the workplace. Countless nasty things.

But this has nothing to do with us. Back to the topic, Atsushi Kameda was of course cheated. The new contract is estimated to have a lot of text traps. There are work goals that are difficult for him to complete or he suddenly has strict requirements for performance, plus the new contract. Originally, it was specially prepared to eliminate his thorn. As a small company associated with a large company, Xiangpu also treats new employees. He is not afraid of bad reputation, let alone contract disputes. According to the terms, he was forcibly fired, or he was not allowed to go to work, and he was not paid a salary, so he dragged him until he gave in and left obediently with a little compensation.

Since then, Atsushi Kameda has been inexplicably unemployed, 20 years of hard work have been destroyed, and the family has lost its main source of income. "

This is similar to what Qingjian Liuli guessed before, but she was still stunned for a long time, and murmured: "It's really vicious, they are really bad, but why didn't Kameda-san tell his wife that he insisted on doing odd jobs secretly?" ?”

Takeshi Qiyuan ate the balls and said vaguely: "Maybe I feel guilty because I was cheated and ruined my family's income, and it's hard to say it. Maybe it's because his wife has been in poor health and has been taking medicine for chronic diseases for a long time. I am afraid that my wife will worry if I say it. , no longer willing to take medicine, and even forced to go out to work, so he pretended nothing happened, went out to work every day in a suit and leather shoes, changed his clothes, and then went to do manual labor and do odd jobs, barely maintaining the various expenses of the family and Pay the mortgage."

Qing Jian Liuli suddenly said: "So that's the case, no wonder he went to such a remote and cheap place to rent a house."

"Renting a house is not the reason." Qiyuan Wu shook his head and said, "Didn't you notice that only his own door in the Baijiayuan has a nameplate with his surname written on it."

Qing Jian Liuli recalled it for a while, but couldn't remember clearly, and asked hesitantly, "What's wrong?"

Qiyuan Wu looked at her speechless for a moment, and suddenly felt that she was doing well, and said with a smile: "This kind of nameplate, or letter, that is pasted on the door or on the side of the door has only become popular in Japan more than 60 years ago. , At that time, Japan’s postal reforms began to spread among the people, and the surnames were pasted on the door, just for the convenience of one type of person, that is, the postman.

Atsushi Kameda posted a nameplate to prevent the postman from finding him, sending him to the wrong room, or losing important letters, so he had to mark where he lived. The reason why he was worried about this was because he had been looking for a job, and he needed a postman to find a job. A fixed address, no company dares to ask for a person without a fixed address, and he cannot send letters such as interview notices, but he dare not let such letters be sent to his home, so he can only squeeze out money to rent a cheap apartment. to receive mail.At that time, he had not given up hope in life, and he hoped that he could survive this difficulty. "

Qing Jian Liuli came to his senses, Qi Yuanwu made sense, if it is just to change clothes, there is really no need to rent a house, find a station to rent a temporary locker, and go to the bathroom to change is probably enough.

And after hearing the tragedy of Kameda, she felt a little sympathetic. Her empathy is very strong, so she couldn't help asking: "Then did he succeed?"

She knew that 40% of the answers were not a good answer, but she still hoped that things would have a happy ending, but Takeshi Qihara took out a photocopy of the "Kameda Secret Words Book" and opened it, watching the lines on it being scratched hard. The lost entry, sighed: "I don't blame you for saying stupid things this time, of course Kameda didn't succeed, he spent nearly a year looking for a job, but finding a decent job after the bubble burst is not so easy, he In his [-]s, which company would be crazy to choose him as a regular employee? The items that were crossed out were rejected directly after receiving the reply, and the small part that was not crossed out were those that did not even receive the rejection letter. I’m still looking forward to a good result someday.”

Qing Jian Liuli also stared at the "Secret Language Book" blankly, feeling that one of the puzzles had been solved, but it didn't seem to be the answer that would make her happy, so she felt uncomfortable for a while before whispering: "No wonder we can't understand it all the time, It turned out that it was his job search record for a long time, he was afraid of missing something and afraid of being accidentally seen by his wife, so he wrote it in a secret language..."

Qiyuan Wu nodded: "The same is true for long-term eating and tasting products. Probably the company I worked in before was large and had a cafeteria. He couldn't find a reason to often bring bento. It was too strange to go home directly after get off work every afternoon. In addition, I’m not willing to spend money on food, so I can only wander around the commercial street when I’m hungry, and I can grab a little bit.”

Following Takeshi Qihara's words, Qingjian Liuli seemed to see Atsushi Kameda walking blankly on the commercial street for a moment, mingling with the crowd, picking up a taster and stuffing it into his mouth quickly, and then leaving quickly with an embarrassed expression. , She couldn't help but feel a little sore just thinking about it.

She didn't even expect to be able to find out a tragic event that happened to ordinary people by randomly accepting the "exorcism" commission. : "So, he was murdered, lost his job, couldn't find a job, became more and more desperate, and earned less and less money from odd jobs, and finally couldn't hold on anymore, feeling that his family was about to be destroyed, so he How many times would he cry uncontrollably and be heard by the neighbors next door? That's why he wanted to commit suicide to cheat the insurance, and tried his best to leave a sum of insurance money for his wife and children?"

Qiyuan Wu put a meatball on his plate, but when he talked about this kind of tragedy in the world, he seemed to suddenly realize his conscience, he hesitated and then transferred it to Qingjian Liuli, sighing: "I think so, and there is a very The important reason is that it has been almost a year, and his original personal accident insurance when he was in a big company is about to expire. Xiangpu will not renew it for him, and he has no ability to renew it himself. To leave more money for wives and children, to ensure that they can repay the mortgage and live a stable life, you must act this month, and you can’t wait for things to turn around.”

Qing Jian Liuli remained silent for a long time after listening to it, fiddled with the delicious meatballs with chopsticks, and had no appetite at all, and Qiyuan Wu also looked helpless.

This matter is really unlucky to say the least. He received a commission to remove spirits and exorcise demons in an ordinary way. He was really just earning hard money. "The tragedy of a small person", a person who was shot to death by the tide of the times will make people feel extremely unhappy. Just take his wallet, instead of stuffing it in the trash.

It's really speechless, the Japanese society is too weird, otherwise why would I always encounter strange things, maybe I shouldn't stay in Japan to prevent myself from going to extremes one day, it's better to move.
