The Daily Life of a Salted Fish Assassin in Anime Crossovers

Judging from his current sleeping state, it doesn't seem like he just fell asleep; rather, it looks like he's been sleeping for a long time.

It seems that this man adjusted his schedule to be similar to that of Miho Nishitani in order to better track her.

As a stalker who followed someone all the way from Yokohama to Tokyo, and is still adjusting his schedule to facilitate his tracking, Jiang Hang was somewhat impressed by this guy's perseverance.

To be honest, Nagai Tatsu can be considered a rich second-generation. If he really likes a girl and is willing to go to such lengths for her, wouldn't it be better for him to put in the effort to pursue her properly?

With his patience after three months of tracking, and given that Miho Nishitani doesn't have a boyfriend and has come to Tokyo alone, he could probably succeed even if he used the most rudimentary method to slowly wear her down for several months.

But he's been secretly following Miho Nishitani for months, yet he's barely spoken a few words to her. What's going on in his head?

Or was this man simply enjoying the feeling of stalking Miho Nishitani? Thinking about it this way, Jiang Hang felt that the other man was even more perverted.

Jiang Hang had no intention of putting himself in the shoes of someone whose thinking might be flawed.

His goal was to find out whether Nagai Tatsuya really harbored resentment or even murderous intent towards her, as Nishitani Miho claimed.

By revealing Hawkeye's abilities, Jiang Hang carefully reconnoitered Nagai Tatsuya's room from outside his house.

Soon, he clearly saw that a suitcase had been placed next to Tatsuya Nagai's bed.

The bag was highlighted as a whole by Eagle Eye, indicating to Jiang Hang that it was an important clue, but he still couldn't figure out what was inside.

This can be considered a limitation of eagle-eye vision on inanimate objects.

Just like if a page in a book contains important information, then Eagle Vision will mark the entire book, and Jiang Hang will have to open the book to find out which page contains the important information.

The bag looked like it contained quite a lot of things, so it was immediately marked by Eagle Vision. He would have to open the bag to find out.

The locks on these apartments weren't difficult to unlock, and Jiang Hang easily entered Nagai Tatsuya's room before he woke up.

Perhaps because the curtains are never drawn to let the room air out during the day, Jiang Hang could smell a "rotten" odor as soon as he entered the room.

Jiang Hang came directly from Professor Agasa's house, and he didn't have any medicine on him to put Nagai Tatsuya back to sleep.

However, Nagai Tatsuya is currently in a light sleep, and Jiang Hang's ability to conceal his presence with the assassin's footsteps and scent is sufficient to ensure his stealth.

Jiang Hang tiptoed and opened the suitcase, looking at the tools inside.

Tape, rope, sedatives, knife, camera. These items, combined with the label of stalker, already conjure up images of many questionable things.

In addition, the bag also contained tools for picking locks and breaking glass, indicating that the man was quite well-prepared.

If you can't pry the door open, you'll just break the glass and barge in? You're quite daring.

Jiang Hang continued to examine the tools. Normal people wouldn't put all these things together, and Nagai Tatsuya, an unemployed bum, would certainly not use these things for anything worthwhile.

It seems that Miho Nishitani's premonition was correct. Now that Tatsuya Nagai has all his tools ready, it looks like the day he takes action is not far off.

After seeing these things, Jiang Hang had a better understanding of the situation.

Miho Nishitani is currently working at an izakaya (Japanese pub), so even if Tatsuya Nagai wanted to make a move, he would definitely do so after Miho Nishitani gets off work. Therefore, he doesn't need to rush and has plenty of time to think about his plan.

Sensing that Nagai Tatsuya on the bed seemed likely to wake up within minutes, Jiang Hang cleaned up the traces left at the scene and then quietly left the apartment.

He didn't forget to tell his system, "System, remember to set an alarm for 4:30 in the morning. I'll set it back after I finish this task."

When Miho Nishitani, who was about to leave work at 5 a.m. the next day, saw Jiang Hang suddenly arrive, she looked somewhat surprised.

"Detective, why are you here so early?"

With meditation as an aid, Jiang Hang is still in good spirits.

He glanced around the izakaya, which was practically empty of customers, and then told Miho Nishitani about what he had investigated the previous night.

“I did a quick investigation into Tatsuya Nagai yesterday and found out a little bit.”

Miho Nishitani's expression suddenly changed, and her voice trembled slightly as she spoke: "Could it be that that man is really going to take revenge on me?"

"I've just realized there's a possibility, there's no need to be so nervous."

Jiang Hang reassured Nishitani Miho, "But now that I've already figured this out, he can't possibly succeed. I'm here to put your mind at ease."

"Don't worry too much about the next few days, just continue with your normal life. I will protect you from the shadows."

As he said this, Jiang Hang took out something that looked like a decoration and handed it to Nishitani Miho: "This is a disguised camera. You can install it in your bedroom or living room. If the other party really comes to retaliate against you, the things recorded by the camera will be evidence."

Since becoming familiar with Professor Agasa, Jiang Hang has been able to obtain some interesting little inventions from him from time to time. This camera, shaped like a character decoration, is one of them. Its lens is hidden in the character's pupil, making it difficult for others to find. Moreover, it can be used continuously for several days on a single charge.

After completing all the preparations, Jiang Hang patiently waited for Nagai Tatsuya to take the bait.

This didn't keep him waiting long; after just one day, the Wolf of Rice Flower seemed to feel that the time was ripe and was ready to carry out his plan.

Chapter 180: Chapter 178: The Wolf of Rice Flower's Revenge

Following Jiang Hang's instructions, Nishitani Miho has placed the decorative camera in the living room.

Although she didn't know what methods Jiang Hang would use to protect her, she didn't have any better options than to trust him.

If she hadn't learned about Jiang Hang from Shizuka Sakaki, she would probably be thinking about how to get rid of him before Tatsuya Nagai killed her.

Even from the day that man pushed her down the stairs in the subway station, she secretly prepared a bottle of highly toxic pesticide in her home.

Of course, now that Jiang Hang is in trouble, that bottle of pesticide is no longer useful. Thinking of this, Nishitani Miho still seemed a little preoccupied, but she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

As she walked home from get off work, Miho Nishitani immediately noticed that the man was following her not far behind again.

She didn't dare to look back to confirm, and could only carefully use her peripheral vision to check behind her when turning at the intersection.

After confirming that it was indeed that man, even knowing that Jiang Hang might be following and protecting her, she still unconsciously quickened her pace.

She only felt a little more at ease after returning to her apartment building.

But as she locked the door and dragged her tired body toward the living room, she was surprised to find a man standing there!

Miho Nishitani felt her heart almost leap into her throat at that moment.

But the next moment, when she saw that the man in her house was Jiang Hang and not anyone else, and that Shizuka Sakaki was also in her room, Miho Nishitani touched her chest and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.

"Detective... Detective?" After calming down a bit, Miho Nishitani remembered that Jiang Hang had indeed taken a spare key from her and said that he would come to her house if necessary.

She never expected that just one day later, she would see Jiang Hang in her own home.

To be honest, if Jiang Hang hadn't brought Shizuka Sakaki with him, she probably would have suspected that Jiang Hang was planning something against her.

Jiang Hang greeted Nishitani Miho: "I emailed you before we came to say we were coming, but it looks like you were rushing back and didn't check your phone."

Jiang Hang can easily use "special" methods to enter the room of stalkers like Tatsuya Nagai and potential criminal suspects to collect evidence. However, when dealing with clients, Jiang Hang prefers to use normal methods to interact with them.

Miho Nishitani took out her phone and saw that there was indeed an unread email from Jiang Hang twenty minutes ago, which finally put her at ease.

"Detective, that man was following me again this morning, and I felt he wasn't trying to hide it at all this time. Is he about to make a move?"

Jiang Hang nodded, then led Nishitani Miho to the window of her living room and pointed to a tree outside the apartment.

"See that telephone pole? Around 5 a.m. this morning, before you came back, that man put a bag there. And if I'm not mistaken, he was planning to use the tools in that bag to break into your room and assault you after one last stalking of you."

"It seems that person is quite persistent about 'stalking'; they've already prepared their tools in advance and are going to do one last stalking."

"If he had broken into your house before you got back, you probably would have seen the police taking that man away when you returned," Jiang Hang said, shaking his head as if he regretted it.

Listening to Jiang Hang's description, Nishitani Miho felt her hands and feet were ice cold and cold sweat was breaking out on her back.

Jiang Hang continued, "If you want to call the police, you can do so now. With his criminal record and the contents of that bag as evidence, that's enough to keep that man out of sight for a long time. But if you want him to stay in jail longer, you can wait until he takes concrete action before calling the police."

As he said this, Jiang Hang took out a wig from his bag that matched Miho Nishitani's hair color and style and put it on his head: "But you'll have to hide in the closet for a while if you have one like that."

......

For Tatsuya Nagai, things haven't been very comfortable lately.

Back in Yokohama, he "thought" he was just stalking and secretly photographing Miho Nishitani, never expecting that she would choose to move to Tokyo.

Nagai Tatsuya went to great lengths to find her.

At this point, he already harbored some resentment towards Miho Nishitani.

Unexpectedly, after discovering him, Miho Nishitani actually chose to call the police, which even led to him being given the nickname "Beihua Wolf".

This directly caused him to develop a strong hatred for Miho Nishitani.

Today, he planned to break into Miho Nishitani's house one last time after following her, so that she could truly feel his hatred.

As for what happened next?

Since being abandoned by his own family and left to fend for himself, Nagai Tatsu has completely stopped caring about these things.

If his actions embarrassed his father, who valued his reputation, Tatsuya Nagai would feel a perverse sense of satisfaction.

With this in mind, Tatsuya Nagai became even more excited about what was to come.

Time passed slowly, and Nagai Tatsuya kept an eye on Nishitani Miho's room from a secluded corner, checking on the woman's movements.

By 10 a.m., he figured the woman should be asleep, and the office workers had all left the apartment. If he was careful, his actions wouldn't attract attention.

Outside Miho Nishitani's room, Tatsuya Nagai somewhat clumsily used lock-picking tools to pry open the door.

He had practiced at home many times before, but the lock on Miho Nishitani's room seemed to be more complicated than the lock he had practiced at home.

However, he was still very lucky. No one passed by and discovered his actions until he pried open the lock and sneaked into Miho Nishitani's room.

Suppressing his excitement, Nagai Tatsuya closed the door.

Then he took out the sleeping pills he had prepared beforehand from his bag, sprayed them on a handkerchief, and quietly opened the door to Miho Nishitani's bedroom with a rope attached.

Chapter 181: Chapter 179: Can I skip the prisoner's confession process from now on?

In Tatsuya Nagai's view, Miho Nishitani was currently lying in bed sleeping.

If he listened carefully, he could almost hear Miho Nishitani's even breathing.

Because the bedroom curtains were all drawn, he could only see Miho Nishitani's hair sticking out.

A strange smile crept onto Nagai Tatsuya's lips as he clutched the handkerchief laced with the sleeping potion tightly in his hand.

This handkerchief was originally prepared in case Miho Nishitani was still awake, but now that Miho Nishitani showed no signs of waking up, he was no longer in a hurry.

He wanted to see what interesting expression would appear on the woman's face the moment she woke up and saw him standing beside her.

It wouldn't be too late to seduce the woman after he'd had his fill of that terrified expression.

He slowly approached Miho Nishitani's bedside, his mind racing with thoughts of what he was about to do to this woman.

Finally, just a few steps away from Miho Nishitani, and when he was certain that she could not escape, he pounced on her!
