Chapter 015: Disdain

As a city hunter, Meng Bo's skills and intelligence were beyond doubt; otherwise, he wouldn't have solved so many cases.

But the one thing that left Wang Bo somewhat helpless was this guy's attitude toward women—he was a complete simp. As long as a woman was pretty, he would fawn over her until she was sick of it.

In short, this guy was a thorough lecher. The moment Saeko Nogami spoke, he hurriedly agreed, as if afraid that she, not he, would back out.

Saeko Nogami seemed to have anticipated Meng Bo's agreement, so she smiled at him, and that sent him over the moon.

Fortunately, Saeko Nogami was well aware that besides Meng Bo, there was another person present. After Meng Bo agreed, she turned her gaze to Wang Bo and asked for his opinion.

Wang Bo didn't hesitate and said directly, "Sure, but wait until I've asked a few questions first."

Saeko Nogami said with a smile, "Of course."

Seeing this, Meng Bo felt a bit jealous and quickly went to Wang Bo's side, lowering his voice, "Hey, hey, hey, a friend's wife is not to be trifled with. You'll get your comeuppance for this."

Wang Bo's mouth twitched slightly. Although Saeko Nogami was beautiful and alluring, a fine woman, Wang Bo had no interest in such women.

After all, he hadn't even flirted with Ya Zi, let alone this Saeko Nogami.

But Meng Bo's attitude, as if guarding against a thief, annoyed Wang Bo greatly, so he said bluntly, "I've only heard that a friend's wife is fair game, never that she's off-limits. Are you mistaken?"

Meng Bo: ...

This bastard, could he be serious?

His heart skipped a beat. He carefully studied Wang Bo's face, but Wang Bo looked indifferent. Even Meng Bo, who had read countless people, couldn't tell what he was thinking.

But thinking that Saeko Nogami admired the strong, and Wang Bo was strong, he felt a pang of panic.

Ahhh, beautiful Saeko-chan, could she really be stolen away by this guy?

If Wang Bo knew what Meng Bo was thinking, he would have been both amused and exasperated. This guy's inner drama was way too much.

Finally, led by the white dove, Wang Bo and his group entered Harajuku.

Harajuku was a representative of Tokyo's street culture, a famous youth street in Japan. When Wang Bo and his two companions arrived, what they saw most were not the various storefronts.

But people.

There were tons of young people in Harajuku—fashionably dressed girls, trendy young men, and even all kinds of cosplayers filling the streets.

Faced with such a crowd, Saeko Nogami couldn't help but worry: if they really found those people and a fight broke out here, wouldn't innocent bystanders get hurt?

So she quickly voiced her concern.

"Don't worry, Saeko." Meng Bo looked around, searching for the white dove, but said, "Once we find those guys, we'll find a way to lure them out of Harajuku."

Saeko Nogami said, "Do you have a good idea?"

"Thinking about it," Meng Bo said calmly.

Saeko Nogami really wanted to slap him in the face, but considering there was an outsider present, she held back her impulse and turned to ask Wang Bo, "I wonder if Wang Bo-san has any good ideas."

"Yes," Wang Bo nodded.

Saeko Nogami's heart leaped with joy, and she pressed, "What idea?"

Wang Bo said slowly, "You'll know when we find them."

Saeko Nogami: ...

This time she really wanted to strike, but considering she might not be his match and would only humiliate herself, she once again suppressed her impulse.

The three squeezed through the crowd and finally arrived at Harajuku Station.

This was Harajuku's station, built in imitation of English countryside style. After the white dove flew into the station, Wang Bo and the others followed and clearly saw the dove soar over the crowd and crash into a young man's body.

The young man seemed to sense something, turned around and looked, but saw nothing.

He suspiciously scanned the surroundings, then turned and continued forward.

Wang Bo and his group, hidden in the crowd, clearly saw this.

Saeko Nogami was a bit excited, "That's him! He's the kidnapper who abducted Imamura Kiyoko?"

Meng Bo turned to look at Wang Bo.

Wang Bo nodded and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, it's him."

Afraid of being noticed, Saeko Nogami didn't dare look directly at him, instead observing him out of the corner of her eye. "I thought those guys were all vicious criminals, but I didn't expect him to be such a young man."

The kidnapper was about twenty-something, with a distinctive yellow hair, dressed in the trendiest fashion of the time.

Merged into the crowd, he looked no different from any trendy young person.

It was hard to imagine that such a guy was a kidnapper.

And in the previous operation, he had brutally killed over a dozen law enforcement officers.

Saeko Nogami carefully observed the surroundings and found that he was alone, with no accomplices nearby.

Meng Bo asked in surprise, "Where's the white dove? It's gone."

Wang Bo said, "The white dove is inside that guy's body."

"Inside his body? But it was a white dove," Meng Bo said in astonishment.

Saeko Nogami remarked, "To be precise, it was a dove transformed from a dagger."

Wang Bo said calmly, "You have to understand, some things can't be explained by science, like magic."

Yes, magic was the most unscientific thing Wang Bo had ever seen.

For example, transfiguration could turn a rabbit into slippers, a mouse into a teacup, organic matter into inorganic matter—that was not scientific at all. So when Wang Bo learned magic, he had already given up on trying to make magic scientific.

Some magic didn't even obey the law of conservation of matter. What could you do?

Meng Bo said worriedly, "Should we act immediately?"

"Here? Are you crazy?" Saeko Nogami disagreed and shot Meng Bo a fierce glare. This was Harajuku Station; there were at least several thousand people here.

Starting a fight here, were you trying to cause a terrorist attack?

Meng Bo said, "Now that the white dove has flown into that guy's body, if we don't act, how will we track him?"

Saeko Nogami was taken aback and quickly said, "I'll have people seal off the exits right now."

Wang Bo interrupted, "No need for that trouble. The white dove inside him acts like a tracker; I can locate him anytime."

Meng Bo couldn't help but say, "That ability is too convenient, practically a nemesis of crime. Hey, where did you get this ability? Can you teach me?"

Wang Bo hadn't expected Meng Bo to be so thick-skinned, so he shot him a look of disdain.
