Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

At the Vyazemsky Police Headquarters, Bukaev spent a great deal of time persuading his superiors to put the entire police station on high alert.

Regardless of whether the fax was real or fake, Bukayev felt it was necessary to take it seriously.

After all, Gin's true identity has not yet been figured out, and there can be no mistakes whatsoever.

He's got his hands on this guy. Even Jesus couldn't stop him, as Bukaev said!

"Ahem, Inspector Bukayev."

Just as Bukaev was feeling smug, a soft cough suddenly came to his ear, instantly bringing him back to his senses. He then coughed in a similar manner before turning around to look.

Interrupting his daydreaming about the future was a handsome blond young man, tall with striking gray-brown eyes, exuding a youthful naiveté and innocence.

Does she look like a graduate of a police academy?

what do you say that is?

Nikolaif?

"what's up?"

Unable to remember, Bukaev simply stopped thinking about it.

“Officer Ksenia wants to see you in her office,” Nikolai had to repeat.

"I understand." Bukaev nodded and then left the lobby on the first floor.

Due to the security signal, the police officers on the first floor are currently very busy.

Nikolai stood there, a slight smile on his lips, and subconsciously touched his cheek before walking towards the archives on the first floor.

Along the way, he didn't forget to greet other people, acting as if they were very familiar with each other.

"Didn't you notice how enthusiastic that police academy graduate was today?"

"Perhaps this is the first time we've encountered such a warning."

"A passionate young man, always prone to daydreaming. Working here, who wouldn't want to just stay here every day?"

"Hehe, as if you never thought about making a name for yourself when you were young."

Watching Nikolai's retreating figure, the group whispered among themselves for a moment before returning to their own tasks.

Nikolai also entered the archives smoothly.

To be honest, the layout of the Vyazemsky General Headquarters is not much different from that of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department.

The most advanced feature in the entire archive room is probably the electronic lock on the door.

Nikolai looked around and quickly strode toward the rightmost bookshelf, his goal very clear.

Clearly, he was no stranger to this place.

Just then, the phone rang. Nikolai stopped in his tracks and answered it without thinking.

"Which one?"

"It's me," came Kiana's voice.

Nikolai placed his phone on the table beside him and said calmly, "Wasn't the Vladivostok matter entrusted to you?"

“Indeed, but we’ve run into a little trouble,” Kiana explained. “Back in Osaka, do you remember Owl?”

Nikolai paused for a moment, then continued rummaging through the file shelf.

枭？

Of course he remembered that he had tricked the other party back then.

But why mention her?

“Unfortunately, little raven,” Kiana’s slightly regretful voice rang out, “she has escaped from prison and is currently in… Vladivostok.”

"That woman has gone even crazier. The owner and all the employees of the underground casino we used to work at died. They looked terrible."

Ok?

Nikolai stopped what he was doing, his brow furrowing deeply.

Logically speaking, he shouldn't have been puzzled.

However... the places where the owl strikes are very particular.

"I understand. Keep an eye on her location and let me know if you need to." Nikolai hung up the phone after saying that.

Just as he put away his phone, a policewoman with a ponytail was staring intently at him from the bookshelf to his right, her pupils trembling uncontrollably.

“Nikolaf…no, who are you?” the policewoman asked, her voice trembling as she clutched the documents in her hands.

Nikolai's expression changed instantly, and he muttered speechlessly, "Gat, you bastard..."

"Someone..."

The policewoman immediately shouted, but was quickly restrained by a large hand.

Nikolai leaned close to her ear, suppressing her struggles and speaking as slowly as possible.

"Don't worry, I have principles, I won't kill police officers."

He then knocked the policewoman unconscious. Nikolai waited at the door for a while, and after confirming that no one had heard, he placed the policewoman on a chair in the archives room, positioning her as if she were sleeping on the table, and thoughtfully draped a coat over her.

Nikolai turned around and burrowed into piles of documents again, starting to search through them.

It took Nikolai a good ten minutes before he finally pulled out a yellowed map.

Once under the light, Nikolai unfolded it completely, revealing clear Russian markings.

Detailed Construction Map of the Vyazemsky Main Directorate

After a quick glance, Nikolai felt an increasing headache.

This differs significantly from the one he had seen before.

Meanwhile, Gart was dutifully guarding the policeman who was tied to a chair in front of him. Upon closer inspection, one would find that he looked exactly like Nikolai, the policeman at the police station.

"Why not kill him?" Gart muttered to himself, uttering a chilling statement.

He's a latecomer to the profession and doesn't have the same professional ethics as Yuichi Shiina.

Kill the police, especially a Russian policeman.

Haha...you're so naughty.

Lak silently watched the sleeping Nikolav, his thoughts drifting back to a short while ago when Shiina Yuichi fiddled with a mask that looked exactly like this face, and then took over the other person's identity.

His enviable skill made him envious.

I wonder if asking Shiina Yuichi afterwards would have taught him this technique.

Garth was dreaming about the future, but little did he know that Shiina Yu would suddenly stab him in the heart.

Returning to the Vyazemsky Police Headquarters, after Shiina Yuichi had completely memorized the map, he bumped into a bearded police officer as soon as he stepped outside.

After a moment of stunned silence, Shiina Yuichi spoke first, "Officer Regice."

"Oh, it's Nikolai." The bearded officer, sensing something amiss, responded warmly, "I heard you're new here. Are you settling in well?"

Upon hearing this, Shiina Yuichi gave a humble smile, "Everyone is very kind to me, and I really like it here."

Officer Radis patted Shiina Yuichi on the shoulder and laughed heartily, "Haha, I heard you were assigned to work under Ksenia. Don't let her cold demeanor fool you, she's actually very kind-hearted. Don't hesitate to ask her questions if you don't understand something."

It's clear that he is also a very warm person and treats younger people very gently.

Yuichi Shiina chimed in, "Of course, I will try my best to learn from my senior."

He looked just like a naive young man, and Radis didn't sense anything was wrong.

"Alright, you can go ahead and get busy." Radis waved his hand, then pushed open the door and entered.

Shiina Yuichi was also about to leave when he suddenly seemed to remember something and turned his head away.

Just then, Radis's voice came from behind the door.

Having a loud voice also has its advantages.

"Lia, why are you asleep again?"

"Did Nikolai put this on you? That kid has a good eye."

The helpless tone brought a slight sense of relief to Shiina Yuichi.

It seems that Radis isn't a good man who would disturb someone's sleep.

As for how Qingmeng came about, let's not worry about that for now.
