When Chongzong received a text message from Uesugi Yui, he was already on the shopping street.

-"Among these five individuals, one is the black Kuroda we are looking for, I'll leave the analysis to you." (Uesugi Yui)

Along with this message were five photos, corresponding to five individuals named Kuroda, either criminals or suspects.

Kuroda Mikawa, Kuroda Daikamon, Kuroda Kaisuke, Kuroda Soichiro, and Kuroda Hirotaka, it was surprising to find so many individuals with the surname Kuroda on this small shopping street.

Fortunately, the photos sent by Uesugi Yui included detailed information about the criminals as well as police remarks. After Chongzong went through all of them, he locked onto his target.

Kuroda Soichiro, twenty-one years old, a senior high school student who repeated a year, the founder and current leader of the organization "Black Wheel," with no actual criminal record. He was suspected of accepting money from others, instructing his subordinates in the organization to carry out violent acts. Although over twenty members of the organization had been arrested, there was still no decisive evidence to arrest Kuroda Soichiro.

Kuroda Hirotaka, twenty-seven years old, unemployed, and the biological brother of Kuroda Soichiro, the second in command of the "Black Wheel" organization, with multiple records of assault crimes and approximately 13 months of accumulated detention.

It turned out that the two brothers jointly operated the organization.

It seemed that the younger brother was more intellectually capable, while the elder brother was physically stronger.

As Chongzong pondered, he carefully examined the photos of these two individuals.

Kuroda Soichiro appeared thin and weak, 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighing 110 pounds, with a slender figure, short hair, and a flash of intelligence in his eyes.

Kuroda Hirotaka was muscular, 6 feet tall, weighing 170 pounds, with robust muscles bulging through his clothes, and his black short hair looked very tough.

One in charge of the organization, the other at the forefront of the action, a combination of strategy and force. For brothers, that was indeed quite impressive.

It was just a pity that they were not partners in legitimate business but were engaged in illegal violent activities.

Now that Chongzong had the photos, he could sneak into the shopping street to confirm Kuroda's whereabouts.

However, before that, there was a problem to solve.

Previously, in order to gather intelligence, Chongzong had already clashed with members of the Kuroda organization, revealing his face.

Now, it was not possible to openly show up on the shopping street.

But finding someone else to investigate on his behalf was not an option.

There was no time, and no suitable candidates.

He had to do it himself.

Chongzong decided to disguise himself.

But he did not have any props for a disguise with him now.

-Should he go back to fetch them? Or...

Just as Chongzong was pondering these thoughts, a familiar voice sounded behind him.

"Uesugi, what are you doing here?" (Mysterious)

Chongzong turned abruptly to see the Yasha Nurse Chief, with whom he had previously interacted.

She was dressed in loose outerwear and pants, carrying a huge mountaineering backpack on her back, seemingly on her way somewhere.

"From your expression, it seems like you're troubled about something?" (Yasha Nurse Chief)

She could see through Chongzong's mind at a glance.

"Well... uh, I've run into a bit of trouble." (Chongzong)

"Oh? Tell me about it?" (Yasha Head Nurse)

The Yasha head nurse stood with her legs apart, exuding a confidence that she could solve any problem, no matter what.

- Should I tell her the truth?

- No, I can't reveal the truth to her, but I can be clever and change the wording...

Soon, Chongzong had an idea in mind.

"I want to go to the shopping street to find someone, but I don't want to be recognized by acquaintances..." (Chongzong)

"Oh, I understand, I understand. Teenagers in their youth, I understand your troubles very well." (Yasha Head Nurse)

Before Chongzong could finish his sentence, the Yasha head nurse was already nodding continuously in a manner that indicated she had already grasped the situation.

"I have a solution, so just leave it to me to handle!" (Yasha Head Nurse)
