Standalone Tokyo

Chapter 17: Exploring information
  Tracking is a difficult problem, especially for an ordinary person who has not received professional training. How to keep up with the tracking target without being discovered or thrown away? This is a difficult problem. The person being tracked is fine just walking. , if he drove, then such tracking would definitely be an extremely difficult thing.

Fujiwara Masato didn't know exactly how difficult it was to do this, because he had never tried tracking, and he was glad that he didn't have to do such an activity... He cheated and had a system map.

After Fujiwara Masato and his three subordinates, Huang Mao, Giyu No. 1, and Hatoshi Ren, had eaten and drank enough, he calmly opened the system map and saw that the two people had returned to the so-called Oshima Loan Sharing Company. Within the stronghold of the violent group.

In order to achieve his goal and solve this matter, Fujiwara Masato began to think about what he was going to do. According to the knowledge he gained from reading novels and movies, no matter what he wanted to do, the first thing he should obtain should be intelligence, and besides intelligence In addition to character information, the most important thing is familiarity with the terrain.

The system map is very useful, but it is not direct enough for Masato Fujiwara’s senses. Through the map, he can only roughly know the general distribution of the terrain around the violent group’s stronghold, but the specific details are unclear. Therefore, Masato Fujiwara personally believes that he needs Go around the neighborhood for yourself and get a feel for the situation.

During this operation, Fujiwara Masato could not ride a bicycle. In order to move faster and more conveniently, he decided to drive the Japanese crispy hatchback parked in the garage.

Although Fujiwara Masato does not have a Japanese driver's license, and although the steering wheel of Japanese cars is on the right side, he is still confident that he can drive the car well. As long as he is not caught by the Japanese traffic police, nothing will happen to him.

Thinking of this, Fujiwara Masato made a note in his mind... He must get a Japanese driver's license as soon as possible, otherwise it would be really inconvenient to go out to do errands.

The car had not been parked in the garage for long, and there was still half a tank of gasoline. Fujiwara Masato did not need to go to a garage or a gas station, he just drove the car and followed the map to the destination.

The distance of two or three kilometers is not far. Fujiwara Masato arrived nearby after 20 minutes of driving. When he arrived nearby, he found a place to park the car, got out of the car and walked there. On the way, he did not forget to put on his mask and I put on my glasses and bought a peaked cap from a convenience store on the roadside.

Although this outfit makes Masato Fujiwara look suspicious, it is better than walking on the street with his face exposed, but the former will not be remembered deeply, and as long as Masato Fujiwara is not beaten by the two violent men who just came to collect debts, Even if a member of the group collides head-on, he is not afraid of being seen by others.

The Oshima Lending Company is located in a residential area of ​​apartment buildings. It is quite down-to-earth. The people who live here are all office workers who come to Tokyo to work. They can go to it when they are short of money. Therefore, Its location is very obvious and has nothing to do with being hidden.

Fujiwara Masato easily found the office building where Oshima Lending Company is located among the apartment buildings. The building has 12 floors. According to the sign in the building, Fujiwara Masato knew that Oshima Lending Company has an area on the sixth floor of the building. Office area.

Fujiwara Masato did not rush up. He first walked around the building a few times in the nearby area. After spending more than an hour getting familiar with the surrounding terrain, he found a place to stop where he could see the sixth floor of the office building. , looking towards the building, he saw bright lights in the building, including the lights on the sixth floor, which meant that there was someone inside.

Just when Fujiwara Masato was observing, he suddenly found that the two gangsters on the system map who had visited him began to move. They left in different directions and very quickly, leaving within a few minutes. The street where the office building is located.

What's going on here? Do they have a mission?
  Fujiwara Masato was stunned for a while, but after thinking about it, he figured out the reason... Hey, these two street bastards got off work, but they didn't work overtime at night.

Now that these two thugs are off work, who is still on the sixth floor? Is it the person who reads Oshima Lending Company owner and writes gang leader?
  Impossible, how could such a leader allow you to work overtime at night, so after eliminating other candidates, there is only one possibility left.

"It's those two gangsters." Fujiwara Masato opened the system and took a look at the gangster X2 behind the gang base information. He suddenly woke up. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the Japanese office workers of the Oshima Lending Company learned from the American office workers. The company owned When people get off work, they don't turn off the lights when there's no one inside, leaving the company lights on hours a day. Although this possibility is possible, it's not very likely.

These two gangsters go to work during the day to collect money, and they get off work at night. Then the two gangsters work the night shift to guard the company to prevent things from being lost. Oh, by the way, there is also the gangster accountant, whose existence cannot be ignored.

Fujiwara Masato was thinking, and he looked up at the brightly lit sixth floor of the office building. He suddenly felt that he should go up to investigate the situation. First, there was such a hostile personal unit, and the villain unit on the system map seemed to need him or an NPC under his command. It will only appear after meeting in person.

Of course, Fujiwara Masato will not go up to the sixth floor by himself, because such behavior is too risky. If an accident occurs, he will be trapped. Instead of taking the risk himself, it is better to send someone up to check the situation, so that even Oshima The people from the loan company wanted to hit someone, but they couldn't hit Masato Fujiwara.

Fujiwara Masato opened the system's troop list, and the first thing that caught his eye was Huang Mao.

No, Huang Mao is not suitable. He has been a little too active recently. Coupled with his street gangster temperament, Huang Mao might be misunderstood when he went up to the sixth floor. He was sent by other gangs to find trouble.

The Volunteer No. 1 is not very suitable. Although he is only a militia unit, his habitual determined look shows that he is not an ordinary person. Even his temperament is a bit incompatible with the Japanese, so he is not very suitable for this. Camouflage reconnaissance operation.

Two of the three people are not suitable, so the remaining one has no choice but to choose him. His honest country boy appearance is quite suitable, but his intelligence is insufficient, so Masato Fujiwara must use the third-person perspective. Then, issue orders to him for guidance in a timely manner.

Now that you have thought of a way, let's get started. Dreaming is meaningless, and hard work is the only way to success.

……

"Ah ah... another boring night." Yuta Misu, who was wearing fashionable hair and loose pants, was lying on the sofa in the company. He looked up at the clock hanging on the wall and saw the pointer pointing to 11. Number, he suddenly yawned out of boredom.

After thinking about it, Misu Yuta reached out and took out a pack of cigarettes from his trouser pocket. He opened it to reveal the only two cigarettes left in it. He took out one and held it in his mouth. Before he could close the cigarette case, another one came from behind the sofa. The hand that reached out "swiped" away the last inventory with lightning speed.

"Bagya Road!" Misu Yuta cursed loudly. He didn't need to look back to know who had robbed him of his last spiritual food.

"You have a very bad conscience!"

The person being scolded was not angry either. He happily took out the lighter and lit the cigarette in his mouth. He took a long puff before responding slowly.

"You whipped me yesterday and I whip you back now. It's fair."

Misu Yuta was dissatisfied. He stood up and pounced on his companion with bared teeth. The two sides started "fighting" in the hall, laughing and joking until the doorbell rang for visitors to the company.

"Ding dong."

"Is there anyone? Yuta Misu, please go and see what's going on."

"Why don't we go together?" "Have you forgotten what our boss said before? When someone comes at night, there must be one person standing next to the alarm. If someone from other gangs comes over, he will call it immediately. Ring, I’ll stay here, you go quickly.”

Misu Yuta didn't think much about it. He just chatted and bickered out of habit. This was one of his daily interactions with his friends.

The layout of Oshima Lending Company is not much different from that of ordinary small businesses. The entrance is a glass door, followed by the front desk. Behind the front desk is a lobby and several workstations separated by partitions. Three or four computers are placed inside. The company The financial and boss offices occupy two rooms, and the remaining room is used to stack sundries and documents.

Yuta Misu turned a corner and came to the gate. He saw an honest and humble middle-aged man standing behind the glass door. Just looking at his plain clothes and timid posture, Yuta Misu subconsciously thought that this was a man. Rural people from the countryside who come to the city to find work.

"Get out of here, we are Oshima Lending Company, not a labor service company. You are in the wrong place." Yuta Misu waved at the man through the glass door, his face full of impatience.

"I'm just here to borrow money... I'm a little tight on money, and other friends don't want to borrow money from me. I picked this up on the road." The honest farmer rubbed his hands, smiled stiffly with the muscles on his face, and asked Yuta Misu A small flyer showing the Big Island Lending Company.

"Really?" Misu Yuta was a little confused, but he didn't think much about it. On the one hand, there was nothing wrong with the visitors' behavior, and their accents all had the flavor of country people's dialect. On the other hand, although there were few people who came to borrow money in the middle of the night, they were also like this There are three urgent situations that people have. There will always be times when they need money urgently, but they happen to have no cash in hand.

"Then come in." Misu Yuta said, reaching out and pressing the door open button on the front desk to open the locked glass door.

"You're lucky today. Our company's finance department hasn't gotten off work yet, so you can still borrow money. Otherwise, you'd have to wait until tomorrow."

After saying that, Mitsu Yuta turned around and led the farmer towards the hall. His companion lying on the sofa in the hall saw him and the person behind him and asked casually.

"The person who borrowed the money?"

"Yes, in the middle of the night... is the finance department here?"

"Inside." The companion pointed to a room door with a financial sign.

"Follow me." Mitsu Yuta tilted his head towards the farmer and motioned for him to follow.

The door of the finance room was pushed open by Yuta Misu. Inside, a middle-aged man wearing glasses was lying on the table writing and drawing on a document. The door was suddenly pushed open, which obviously affected his work. The young man looked up at Yuta Misu with dissatisfaction.

"I said you have to knock on the door when you come in. No one can come in without my permission, especially outsiders."

Misu Yuta thought he was very cool and shrugged his shoulders. He said something about admitting his mistake, but he obviously didn't take the matter seriously. This made the middle-aged man sigh helplessly and decided not to talk to Misu Yuta. There were warnings like that the documents in the finance room were very important and no one could come in at will.

The middle-aged man was a little doubtful whether this idiot who had not even graduated from high school could understand what he said.

"Forget it, what's the matter?"

"Someone came to borrow money."

"Who?"

"Here, it's this uncle." After saying that, Yuta Misu turned around and left. He didn't forget to close the door and let the farmers and middle-aged people stay in the financial room.

"Tell me how much money you want to borrow."

"I want to borrow one hundred thousand yen. With one hundred thousand yen, I can find a place to live, and then go to the construction site to find work." The farmer's tone was a bit stiff, which made the middle-aged man a little unhappy... Come and borrow it Qian, why are you speaking so forcefully?
  "Yeah, no problem." Although he was unhappy, but out of professional character, the middle-aged man did not show his emotions. He didn't care what others borrowed money for, since a loan of 100,000 yen was within his jurisdiction. Then he can decide whether to lend the money out. As for how to get it back, that is a matter for the collection employee and has nothing to do with him.

"Show me your ID, driver's license or resident's card. I want to register."

"What? You need a resident's certificate. When my fellow villagers told me about it, they didn't tell me, and I didn't see this condition on the paper?" The rural farmer sounded a little surprised.

"Don't fool me...if you take away my resident card, I won't be able to work on the construction site."

"This is common sense. You can't borrow money without proof of identity. Our Dadao Lending Company will not lend money to a non-national, and I will only register your proof of identity and will not take your documents away." The middle-aged man He was a little impatient. He didn't like this migrant worker in the first place, and he was already very tired after working for a day. He really had no interest in arguing with the country people, so he issued an expulsion order to this man.

"Without a resident's certificate, you can't borrow money, that's it, get out of here now!"

"Okay, okay...well, I need to go back. I didn't know that I need a resident's certificate to borrow money. I didn't bring my resident's certificate with me. It was hidden by me."

The middle-aged man waved weakly to the country bumpkin and told him to leave quickly and not stay here to delay his work.

"If you want to borrow money, come tomorrow morning or afternoon. Don't come any time at night. I have to get off work."

The country bumpkin left. He left the Dashima Loan Company normally under the watchful eyes of the two gangsters. Before leaving, he did not forget to ask the two about the company's business and off-duty hours. The honest country guy didn't understand the city. The rules and questions asked back and forth in a stiff tone were disgusting.

So before leaving, the migrant workers successfully received a few kicks from two gangsters and were kicked out of the Dadao Lending Company.
