The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

"I've heard that Kaito Kid is someone all the police and detectives in Japan want to capture, but from what you're saying, it seems like you're not interested in capturing him?"

Jiang Hang shrugged.

"I'm quite curious about Kaito Kid, but he's not a real robber. Haven't you noticed that the jewels he steals usually end up back in their original owners? Such an interesting guy, if I catch him, wouldn't I lose a lot of fun?"

But Jiang Hang was thinking about something completely different.

What is Kaito Kid? It's popularity and traffic. He even has quite a few fans online now. Even if Kaito Kid is not considered a "good guy", just based on his popularity alone, Jiang Hang would not really put in the effort to catch him.

He has now connected with Jirokichi Suzuki. As long as he puts in a little effort in some small details to make Jirokichi Suzuki continue to recognize him as the "eagle-eyed detective" and have the idea that "this time I'm just a tiny bit away from catching Kaito Kid," then Kaito Kid and Jirokichi Suzuki can become even more useful tools than Takagi.

Of course, you have to take advantage of the situation gradually. You can do it once this month, and then do it again after the museum's popularity has died down. This is what is known as sustainable development.

If you do this a few times, won't his industry level rise rapidly?

"I'm such a business genius!" Jiang Hang shamelessly gave himself a thumbs up.

Meanwhile, Chihiro Aya covered her mouth and chuckled after hearing Jiang Hang's words: "It seems that Mr. Jiang Hang thinks that capturing that Phantom Thief Kid would be a very easy thing if you wanted to?"

Jiang Hang, however, was completely unmoved by the opponent's provocation.

"No, I didn't, don't talk nonsense!" After throwing out a standard three-part rebuttal, Jiang Hang refused to say another word about Phantom Thief Kid.

Chihiro Aya didn't take Jiang Hang's words seriously.

After reviewing the contract, she prepared to return to her office.

Seeing the weariness on her face as she stood up, Jiang Hang frowned slightly and asked, "It seems you've been busy with something lately, Miss Aya?"

"I've been busy with some personal matters lately. It's almost finished, so I've been a bit hectic. It'll be fine in a couple of days." Chihiro Aya didn't reveal what the personal matter she was currently busy with was.

Controlling facial expressions is a crucial part of disguise skills, so he could naturally see the fleeting reluctance on Chihiro Aya's face.

"I'm afraid Miss Ayasato is doing something dangerous right now. Do you need my help? I think I'm quite good at handling these kinds of things. As for the commission fee, I can give you a friendly price, Miss Ayasato."

“Mr. Jiang Hang truly lives up to his reputation as a sharp-eyed detective; nothing escapes your eyes after all…” Ayato Chihiro did not deny this, then gently shook her head. “Actually, it’s not that dangerous. Just be a little more careful. In any case, Mr. Jiang Hang need not worry about this matter for now. I will handle it quickly and it won’t affect our work here.”

"If I really encounter any danger, I will definitely ask Mr. Jiang Hang for your help." As if to reassure Jiang Hang, she added this sentence.

Jiang Hang was skeptical about this.

And this premonition soon came true.

When Jiang Hang went to Lingli Law Firm that evening to observe, he discovered that eavesdropping devices had been installed in the firm.

As for that intriguingly named Xiao Zhongda, he was already spying on Ayato Chihiro from his hotel room across from the other party's office... no, it seems that he had already overheard some important information through his eavesdropping device.

He's planning to make his move tonight!

Jiang Hang blended into the darkness expressionlessly, waiting for the other party to make a move.

When a strange man wearing sunglasses hurriedly walked into Lingli Law Firm, Jiang Hang followed him with the gait of an assassin, unnoticed by anyone.

It looks like this matter can finally be resolved tonight.

Xiao, Zhong, and Da were completely unaware that a silent "ghost" was following them.

He only had one thing on his mind right now: to get rid of Ayato Chihiro.

Having worked in intelligence for twenty years, he never imagined that he would almost be ruined by this woman.

Over the years, he has made a lot of money through extortion, but at the same time, he has also made many enemies.

If he hadn't happened to overhear that someone was inquiring about him, and even that some of the people he had blackmailed and threatened had united against him, what awaited him would likely have been far more serious than just imprisonment.

Therefore, Chihiro Ayasato, that despicable woman, must die!

With this in mind, he quietly pushed open the door of the other party's office.

Chapter 63: Small, Medium, and Large Killing Intent

Inside the office, Chihiro Aya glanced at the time.

The time she had arranged to meet her sister, whom she hadn't seen for some time, would arrive in a little while.

And the things she has been busy with all these years are finally coming to an end.

Chihiro Aya's gaze involuntarily fell on the thinker-like clock placed in front of her desk.

She had hidden the man's criminal evidence and related lists at the bottom of the clock.

This was a decision made out of necessity.

If those pieces of evidence and lists were released, it would certainly plunge that man into an abyss, but it would also implicate too many people at the top.

When she visited those important figures in private, they all expressed deep hatred for that man, as if they wished he would never see the light of day again.

But everyone knows that if the price of letting that man fall into the abyss is to drag all of them down with him, they would absolutely not be willing to do so, and might even turn against her.

Thinking of this, a mocking smile involuntarily appeared on Chihiro Aya's face.

The evidence she had collected over several years contained most of things that could never see the light of day, but even what remained was enough to make the other party suffer.

This obsession had been in her heart for fifteen years, and today it could finally come to an end.

Just then, she heard the sound of the office door opening and closing.

"Is it Mayoi?" She had no doubts and simply asked.

No one answered her.

Then suddenly all the lights in the office went out.

In the entire office, only by the window could one see some things by the light from outside.

Chihiro Aya's heart sank.

"who is it?"

She stood up from her chair, her expression unusually grave.

At this point, she finally sensed something was wrong.

As a shadow approached from the darkness, the other person's voice reached her ears.

"This must be our first meeting, Miss Chihiro. I never expected to meet you in this way."

As her eyes gradually adjusted to the darkness, and with the help of the light from the window, Chihiro Ayasato finally saw the figure approaching from the shadows.

“Small, medium, large…” She looked at the flashy-dressed man in front of her with some disbelief.

She thought she had been careful enough during her investigation, but she never expected that the other party would still discover her at the last moment.

"I never expected that someone as insignificant as you would almost drive me to the brink of despair without my knowledge. I should give you some applause." Koichi walked up to Ayari Chihiro's desk.

Chihiro Ayasato seemed to want to run, but she was already at the very back of the agency, so no matter how she ran, the other party would always block her way.

"But this boring game should end now... So, Miss Chihiro, hand it over, that document."

Xiao Zhongda looked at Ayato Chihiro in front of him with a sense of confidence. There was still a little bit of time before he was ready. Before that, it wouldn't hurt for him to play with her for a while.

"I'm sorry, but that's something I can't give you. It's no longer here." Chihiro Aya stared intently at the other person, as if trying to find a way out.

However, Xiao Zhongda clicked his tongue a few times in response to her reply.

"It seems you're not so good at lying, Miss Chihiro. Isn't it perfectly fine here, in that Thinker?"

Using the information he obtained through eavesdropping, O-Naka mocked Ayato Chihiro with unrestrained sarcasm.

"You haven't forgotten, have you? Gathering intelligence is one of my strengths."

At this point, Chihiro Aya could only blame herself for being too careless.

“There’s one more thing,” Xiao Zhongda stared at Ayato Chihiro to prevent her from escaping, and at the same time, under Ayato Chihiro’s gaze, picked up the thinker-shaped clock.

"Although it's somewhat regrettable, I have to make a pact with you, a pact of 'eternal silence'..."

"Goodbye, Miss Chihiro. Don't blame me when you go to hell; you brought it on yourself!"

A ferocious look appeared on his face. Holding the rather heavy Thinker in his hand, after driving Ayato Chihiro into a dead end, he prepared to use this place where she hid her secrets as a murder weapon to kill her!

Then, just as he was about to end Ayari Chihiro's life, a hand reached out from the darkness and grabbed the hand he was about to strike!

"What!?"

Xiao, Zhong, and Da subconsciously turned their heads, wanting to know what was hindering their important matter.

What greeted him was a blinding light emanating from a mobile phone camera.

At this moment, the ferocity on his face had not yet faded.

Seeing the murderous glares that Xiao Zhongda cast in his direction, Jiang Hang nodded in satisfaction.

"Not bad, that look is quite menacing. It should be fine as evidence." After confirming that his phone had recorded the entire process, and considering the fierce look and movements of Xiao Zhongda when they turned around at the end, few people would believe that he wasn't planning to kill them to silence them.

He stopped taking pictures with his phone and put it in his pocket, plunging the entire office back into darkness.

Even Chihiro Ayasato was stunned by this sudden turn of events.

Taking advantage of the light from the phone's camera, she finally saw who had saved her.

“Mr. Jiang Hang…” She had no idea that he would save her at this moment.

Even before Jiang Hang made his move, she had no idea that he was standing right behind Xiao Zhongda, filming everything about him.

How...how did he do that?

However, at this moment, it was the small, medium, and large groups who were even more furious.

He had already prepared to kill Ayato Chihiro and then frame someone else, but unexpectedly, a guy followed him in, not only stopping him from killing her, but also filming everything that had just happened.

If this video gets leaked, even if I can handle it myself, it will probably cost me a lot of money...

Many ideas popped into the minds of the children, both young and old.

Knowing that he couldn't possibly defeat Ayasato Chihiro today, and having worked in the intelligence industry for twenty years, he decisively backed down after sensing Jiang Hang's toughness.

While Jiang Hang was still holding his hand, he suddenly showed an unsettling smile.

"Young man, I think there might be some misunderstanding. I'm just a businessman who wanted to talk to Miss Chihiro about intelligence gathering; I had no other intentions..."

The eavesdropping device he installed in the firm is still operational, and his assistant is definitely listening to what's happening in the firm. Having been by his side for so long, he should know how to handle this situation.

As long as I can find a way to bring over the police officers who have something on me, this evidence can be easily erased.

How could someone like you possibly understand the network of relationships I've built up over so many years?
