Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Honma Kyou breathed a sigh of relief, closed the box, took out a handkerchief from his pocket, carefully wiped the places he had touched, and asked seriously and politely the doubts in his heart, "I don't quite understand why you would think of letting If you want to find someone to send these things, shouldn't you arrange for someone you trust to do it? This is our first meeting today, and I have never done anything like this before. Instead of choosing me to do this, If you go with someone who has no experience at all, wouldn’t it be safer to choose an experienced person to do it? If you can get these things, there should be no shortage of talents at your disposal..."

"Are you worried that you have fallen into a trap?" Chi Feichi asked in a hissing voice.

Honma Kyou hesitated for a moment, but did not deny it, "I do have such worries, but when I think about it carefully, I don't seem to have anything worthy of your calculations, so I am really confused..."

"To be honest, I have noticed you before," Chi Feichi could see that Honma Kyou was smart and thoughtful. In order to avoid the truth being exposed in the future and causing Honma Kyou to feel grudge, he simply told the truth, " I think you are a smart and talented person, and I want you to help me, but I am not sure whether you are reliable, so I asked Ledo...that is, Midorikawa, to go to Cowherd's shop to spend money and find a chance to observe it. What kind of person are you..."

Honma Kyou turned to look at Midorikawa Saki outside the car with a surprised expression, "Did Ms. Midorikawa go to Cowherd's shop just to observe me?"

"Yes, I gave her an operation fund, and the remaining money was given to her as a bonus from her previous job. It was her own wish to help you pay for college. But since she After making a decision, I will naturally not object." Chi Feichi took out a cigarette from the cigarette case at hand, bit the cigarette in his mouth, and lit the cigarette with the cigarette lighter in the car, "Even if you don't If she is willing to work for me, I will not force her to take back the money, unless she is unwilling to lend you the money again..."

Honma Kyou looked at Midorikawa Saki who was standing outside by the wall smoking, and then placed her eyes on the box beside her, her eyes a little complicated, "Ms. Midorikawa...do you usually do this kind of work?"

"Pretty much," Chi Feichi said, "occasionally he kills people and stuff."

Honma Kyou: "?!"

What? Who?

Did he hear it wrong?

"Are you kidding?" Honma Kyou couldn't help but look at Midorikawa Saki again, thinking of Midorikawa Saki unconditionally giving him a large amount of money, and thinking of how Midorikawa Saki was always polite to everyone at Cowherd's shop. Angry, I couldn't help but suspect that the person in front of me was joking, "Miss Midorikawa has never had a conflict with anyone. I think she is the kind of person who would avoid even fighting, let alone killing someone..."

"You can't just look at the surface," Chi Feichi also looked at Midorikawa Saki outside, "If you don't like fighting, it won't hinder killing, as long as you have a gun."

"That's what I said..."

Honma Kyou is a little uncomfortable with someone using such a calm and casual tone to talk about the atrocities of murder and arson. She feels that her moral values ​​have been somewhat impacted. Although she is not sure whether the man in front of her is joking or deliberately scaring her, she still chooses I ended the topic first, stayed silent for a while, and then brought up the previous question, "Frankly speaking, I still find it incredible. I feel that I am no different from other people around me. I didn't expect that I would receive your attention. In fact, no matter why you pay attention I, I am very grateful to both of you for your attention and help, and I hope that I will have the opportunity to help you or Miss Midorikawa do something, but... the job you mentioned is too unfamiliar to me. This is something I have never dreamed of before. It’s something I wouldn’t dare to dream about. I’m not confident that I can do the job you mentioned, so I wonder if you should consider finding someone more reliable to do it?”

Seeing that Honma Kyou didn't express disgust or rejection for this job, Chi Feichi slowed down and said, "I still have a lot of things like those in that box. It doesn't matter if I lose a batch, so I want you to give it a try." , you just need to deliver the things as much as possible while ensuring that you will not be traced. That's it. Before departure, you can ask Ledo if there is anything you need to pay attention to. She should be happy to do so. To help you, it may not be as difficult as you think. After you try it, if I think you are capable of working for me and you think this kind of work is acceptable, I can give you an extra helper. You will There is another path that is dangerous but can make a lot of money quickly. As long as you are not too stupid, this path will allow you to quickly return the money Ledo lent you and save some money for your parents. I There are many channels that can help you transfer part of the money to your parents' names in a reasonable manner, so that even if you have an accident, your parents will still have money to support their lives..."

In the narrow space, a low and hoarse voice continued to sound, unhurried and unhurried, like the calm whisper of a devil. People knew that there were many dangers behind it, but they were still tempted by the benefits mentioned.

Honma Kyou looked sideways at the box beside him, trying his best to keep a straight face, but his eyes were full of tangles.

"Of course, the dangers of this road are also obvious. I will not ask you to make an immediate decision." Chi Feichi did not force Honma Kyou to make an immediate decision. "I will give you twenty-four hours to consider. Where are you?" You have Ledo’s contact information. Before one o’clock tomorrow afternoon, after you think about it, send her a message with your answer.”

He didn't mind giving Honma some time.

Some people will temporarily lose their minds due to temptation, and after time cools down, they will change their minds, but Honma is different.

In the face of high pay, Honma did not only see the benefits he could get from it, but instead considered whether this was a trap for him, what he had to calculate, and the problems he would face in doing this. This child did not get excited from the beginning, and naturally did not need time to calm down.

On the contrary, he gave Honma more time, so that Honma had enough time to turn over the painful experiences of the past from his memory, recalling his mother's hard life to take care of the family, recalling his father's self-blame day and night, recalling the bitterness hidden behind others praising him for being "sensible", and recalling his sadness, anxiety and helplessness when his mother left...

Even if he just recalled that he entered a gigolo club to make money not long ago, but was bullied in the gigolo club, it was enough to make Honma angry.

Midorikawa gave Honma a large sum of money before, which helped him out of the predicament. But Honma is a good kid with self-esteem. In Honma's opinion, the money still belongs to Midorikawa. If Midorikawa wants to take the money back someday, he should not refuse. This leads to the fact that the money cannot bring Honma a sense of security. Therefore, even if Midorikawa gave Honma so much money, Honma still longs for a sum of money that he can earn with his own efforts and spend with peace of mind.

He gave Honma time to think about it, so that Honma could think about the past and the future, which could push Honma to accept the job he proposed.

After getting the first payment, Honma will naturally be eager to get the second and third payments...

After all, in addition to tuition, Honma's father also needs money for medical treatment. Honma's mother and stepfather had lent money to Honma's father for medical treatment before, so don't they also need pension expenses? Since the pension issues of parents and stepfather have been considered, isn't it human nature to want to make more money to make parents live better?

In the future, Honma will have a lot of motivation working for him.
