Not only does the Kuroba family live there, it is also the hometown of the original owner.
Jie Byakuya himself didn't stay in Ekoda Town for long. Before signing the contract, he watched the life of the original owner in a ghost-like state for a few days. After the original owner signed the contract, he quickly solved his enemy and completed his mission.
wish, and met Belmode on the same day.
Of course, she didn't take him away that day - "the parents died and the child disappeared" is much more troublesome than "the parents died unexpectedly and the child became an orphan and was adopted by a kind person". The former might even be published in the newspaper and attract unnecessary attention.
Jing Baiye was not familiar with Ekota Town, and he did not inherit any memories from the original owner. Who this body had met in the past, and what friends it had made were all told to him by the original owner, and he would not know if he did not mention them.
He only knew the address of the safe house there, so he sent an email to Midorikawa Shin.
[I know, please be safe...]
Jing Baiye hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't tell him about the boss's assessment, lest he be distracted by other things.
[The address of Ekoda's safe house is at 6-chome 24. There is no key, but it can be unlocked by fingerprint. I will register your identity there. Get some rest early and I'll wait for you to come back.——angostura]
[Okay. You should also go to bed early, good night. - Midorikawa]
After being taken away by Belmod at Jingbaiye and meeting the boss, Gin took people to clean up the traces of his past.
Belmod deliberately concealed the existence of the Black Feather family, and Jing Baiye would not sell off a few people who were good to the original owner and were also good to him, so the only thing that needed to be cleaned up was the house where the original owner used to live.
The house where the original owner's family of four used to live was rented and has become a haunted house - his sister was beaten to death there and his parents were poisoned in the bathroom - the real owner took him to the orphanage after he was sent to it.
That house was listed with the agent at a very low price.
Not long after he left, the accident house was sold by a seller at a normal price, and the difference in price was unknown.
However, Gin didn't care so much. He took advantage of the enemy's family to go on a trip and arranged an explosion overnight, blowing it up completely. Afterwards, the police closed the case with a gas explosion.
The family later left Ekota Town, and the scarred land was taken over by the organization, and houses were rebuilt on it as a safe house for the organization.
The organization deliberately built the new house exactly like the old one, so what Midorikawa Xin was going to was actually the original owner's past home.
Seeing Bai Ye put down his cell phone, Toru Amuro brought up the topic just now: "Angstra, what is that assessment you are talking about?"
"The boss's assessment." Jing Baiye said, "After completing the task of tracking xyz cocktail, the boss will give him an assessment. As long as he passes, he can get the code name... Don't tell him yet."
Toru Amuro nodded, her purple-grey eyes astonishingly bright, like a police dog that finally smelled the enemy's scent.
Jing Baiye glanced at him a few more times, and Toru Amuro looked better with such a high-spirited attitude. She always felt that he was the most real like this.

9:37 pm, Ekota Town.
Zhu Fu Jingguang carried some things out of the convenience store and returned to the rented car.
Tracking also requires skills. He only has one person, and it is impossible to keep track of him 24 hours a day. Moreover, his target is an undercover agent sent by another criminal organization, and he is also a member of the code name. It is easy to be discovered if he keeps tabs too close.
He didn't drive immediately. He put the bag on the passenger seat, leaned on the steering wheel, and sat quietly for a while.
It has been half a year since they joined the organization. During this period, they have been doing odd jobs and doing small and inconspicuous tasks. This is the first time he has been exposed to such an important task, but he did not earn it by himself. It was his junior boss who wanted him to work as soon as possible.
Got the code name, specially given to him.
Thinking of the sentence in Angstra's email, "I'll wait for your return", Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and his eyes softened involuntarily.
But then, he remembered his identity, his smile froze, and then slowly disappeared.
There are gradually fewer pedestrians on the road at this time. This convenience store is in a good location. It is opposite a park and a little further ahead is a garbage collection point.
Zhu Fu Jingguang was about to drive away. Not far away from him, a girl dressed as a student pulled a little boy out of the park. She suddenly stopped midway and took out a handkerchief to wipe the boy's face.
He stayed in the car and couldn't hear what they said, but he could read it through his lip movements-
Why are you playing so late? Mom and dad will be worried. If dad spanks you, I won't care about you.
Sister, don't be angry.
The little boy twisted his body to avoid his sister who continued to wipe his face, and took out something from his pocket: I found the lost toy.
…
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at this scene, and for some reason, he suddenly remembered an incident that happened several years ago.
This was not his first time here. When he was in high school - about seven or eight years ago - he took the train to Ekoda Town on a Friday afternoon in order to visit a senior student who had moved away during his middle school years.
He looked for it based on the address his senior gave him in the past, and his parents told him that his senior went to the police academy after graduating from high school.
Zhu Fu Jingguang's senior was two years older than him. He didn't know why he didn't go to college. After finishing high school, he was eager to go to the police academy. But he didn't ask any more questions. After bidding farewell to his senior's parents, he started on the same route.
Return to the station.
As he passed the park and walked to the garbage collection point in front, he saw a little boy rummaging through the garbage.
The boy was about seven years old, with a schoolbag on his back and black hair. He was obviously about to go on summer vacation, but he was still wearing long-sleeved trousers that were inappropriate for the season.
Zhu Fu Jingguang thought it was a naughty child playing with rubbish, so he immediately stepped forward to stop him. As soon as he picked up the boy, he found that he was crying.
"Why are you digging through the trash?"
It had been so long that Zhu Fu Jingguang could no longer remember the boy's specific appearance. He only remembered his eyes that were filled with tears and were covered with gold by the setting sun, covering up their original color.
And the words he murmured——
"Daddy threw away my toys."
Zhu Fu Jingguang remembered what he said at that time: "What toy?"
"A pair of handcuffs, given to me by my neighbor's brother..." The boy wiped his tears, "He said he would come after he became a policeman..."
Zhu Fu Jingguang couldn't remember what happened next.
The boy continued to want to throw himself into the garbage while sobbing, until a girl who was a little older than him hurriedly ran from the street and took out a handkerchief to wipe his face like the female student.
…
Zhu Fu Jingguang came back to his senses and didn't know why he remembered what happened several years ago.
His senior who once wanted to be a police officer suffered an unknown shock after graduating from the police academy and returned home. Although he had excellent grades, he did not become a police officer in the end.
