Tokyo, My Childhood Friend is a Ghost Story

Chapter 210 Tell your boyfriend to put in some effort and find a rich woman to use his skills.
Although Mamizuko didn't know why Kayoko suddenly wanted to buy a gift, as the bookstore manager and Kayoko's assistant, she felt it was her duty to help her boss out.

"Does the store manager have any preferred gifts?"

Jia Yezi shook her head, walking somewhat blankly through the mall.

She never bought gifts; the only gift she ever received was one made from her own hair.

More precisely, the last time the word "gift" materialized in her life was this year. Before that, she knew there were gifts, but she hadn't had any connection with the word for over a decade.

"In that case, let's go check out the women's section, shall we?"

"Uh-huh!"

Jia Yezi nodded and followed Zhen Shuizi toward the women's clothing section.

The two first entered a beauty store. The store clerk, seeing Jia Yezi's voluptuous and alluring figure, yet her pure and lovely temperament, quickly came forward.

What would you two like to buy?

"My store manager wants to choose two gifts, do you have any recommendations?"

"A gift? Then I must recommend our Pearl Girl gift set. Please forgive me if you find it here."

As the shop assistant rattled off her introduction, Jia Yezi listened with a somewhat bewildered expression.

She was completely confused by all the claims about how good it is for the skin, how it helps makeup stay put, and how it resists sweating.

"Store manager?"

"Well"

Masamiko's shout brought Jia Yezi back to her senses. Looking at the expensive cosmetic gift set that the shop assistant was strongly recommending, Jia Yezi looked at Masamiko.

"Buy one?"

Masamiko saw the clear-eyed foolishness in her manager's eyes, smiled helplessly, and asked.

"Do Lady Fujiang and the others usually wear makeup?"

Jia Yezi shook her head.

"No, Fujiang, little Fujiang, she doesn't seem to wear makeup."

"I'm so sorry."

"Huh? You really don't want it? Since you've never worn makeup before, maybe giving you some cosmetics will have an unexpected effect. We also have a complete makeup tutorial."

Zhenshuizi shook her head and accompanied Jiayezi out of the beauty store.

"Should we look at clothes next? Forget it, let's look at jewelry instead."

"Uh-huh!"

Masamiko originally wanted to look at clothes and shoes, but then thought better of it. Her shop manager's pure and innocent outfit, which perfectly suited her temperament, was chosen by Lady Fukue.

Let's not overdo it. The main issue is that the prices are all very high. If the store manager knew the actual prices, he probably wouldn't dare to wear his own clothes as casually as usual.
Behind the two, three groups of twelve plainclothes police officers spread out and followed them, while the group leaders and bookstore employees followed at a distance.

"Speaking of which, why did Manager Jia Yezi suddenly decide to go out?"

"They said they wanted to pick out a gift for Miss Fujiang."

"Oh~"

Recalling the stunningly beautiful girl who occasionally appeared in the bookstore, the three group leaders suddenly realized what had happened.

To be honest, if it weren't for Superintendent Jun-bok's strict orders forbidding them from provoking Fu-jiang, and his repeated warnings that they would bear the consequences if they disobeyed, and the fact that the information also indicated that Fu-jiang had a very loving boyfriend, they would have been in serious trouble.

In addition, the police officers subtly mentioned the connection between Fu Jiang and the downfall of the Truth Cult, which greatly interested two of the young men in the plainclothes.

However, after learning the real danger behind it, the young people still suppressed their thoughts.

Putting aside moral issues, as police officers, they are well aware of the power and influence of authority.

Let alone now, even if he gets promoted in the future, if he really angers Fukue, it's uncertain how long he can survive within Fukue's vast network of connections. I heard that the currently popular Senate candidate, Kiwa Arima, was put forward by the Inoue family. If he really offends them, those few low-ranking police officers probably won't even know how they died.

After all, they weren't in the ivory tower of school. The young police officers, already aware of the dangers of society, still had a clear understanding of themselves.

Ahead, Mamizuko and Yoshinoko soon arrived at the jewelry area.

The plainclothes police officers watched the two go inside. Since they were bored anyway, the three team leaders discussed it and found two team members to go to the milk tea shop to queue up and buy milk tea.

The others continued to follow the two in case of any unforeseen circumstances.

After the milk tea was delivered to everyone, Mamizuko and Yoshino, who still hadn't found a suitable gift, walked out of the shopping center.

"The target starts heading downstairs to the parking lot; one group follows."

"receive."

Upon hearing the instructions transmitted through their earpieces, a group of people in the parking lot immediately started their vehicle and slowly followed the two as they drove away in their van.

Not only did plainclothes police officers follow them, but two shop employees who had been listening to the conversation between Mamizuko and Kayoko through their earpieces also started their car.

"It's such a hassle to be rich; you have to run around everywhere just to buy something."

"What are you muttering about? Where are we now?"

"Kakizaki-cho Trading Company, the target's car is parked here."

"Received, will continue to follow up."

As Jia Yezi and her companion got out of the car and entered this famous luxury shopping center in Osaka, the policewoman in the group sighed sincerely.

"I really envy Miss Jia Yezi. I visited this place once two years ago, and the prices were absolutely outrageous."

"You can't envy that. I'm not even talking about luck, just look at their figures. How many of those have you seen in real life?"

"Tsk, if you can't speak properly, then shut up. If I had her figure, would I be out here with you poor folks, exposed to the wind and sun?"

During our chat, Jia Yezi, carrying gifts and beaming with smiles, came out.

"That's Tiffany jewelry, isn't it? If you're really rich, I'd want some too."

"If you want that, just have your boyfriend work hard, find a rich woman to support, and then he can give you back. Your boyfriend is so handsome!"

"Get lost! My boyfriend would never be followed!"

Amidst the playful banter, the female plainclothes officer suddenly threw away the binoculars with a snap.

Amidst the stern address, the remaining two quickly reported the situation.

Looking at the three men who were pretending to smoke and chat not far behind Jia Yezi, but were actually secretly hanging around her, the female plainclothes officer started cursing.

"Damn it, if these idiots cause me to lose my year-end bonus, I'll beat the shit out of them!"

She burst outside and, without a word, drew her pistol and walked toward the three men who were clearly acting strangely.

Upon hearing what was happening on one side, the other two groups, along with the bookstore employees disguised as professional security personnel, immediately surrounded the three people.

Unaware that they were being targeted, the three robbers stared at the jewelry in Jia Yezi's hand, noticing that the two had already reached the alley leading to the parking lot.

The three men stubbed out their cigarettes and sped up, preparing to rush forward and rob the victim.

Seven or eight plainclothes police officers with extremely hostile expressions and black hands suddenly came into view before they could even figure out what was going on.

The female plainclothes officer cocked her pistol with a clatter, approached the three men with a sinister expression, and pressed the muzzle of the gun against the head of the man in the middle.

"What the hell do you want? Huh? What do you want?!"

Snapped!
The cold gun barrel combined with the hot slap left the three Black Stone Group members stunned. They looked at the plainclothes officers surrounding them, their eyes seeming to want to devour them, and swallowed hard in fear before obediently squatting down.
