26. REBIRTH: 24D Boss: It's over...

026

Fūya Rei began to think about the possibility that he had not woken up.

It might not be a big chance, but it's not zero. Otherwise, why would he see Miyama Chaodeng maintaining a cold expression and speaking to him in such a certain tone...

Meow?

Fūya Ling suddenly touched his nose. He had to admit that Miyama Chaodeng's trick seemed to have really worked. He opened his mouth, turned his face away and said coldly, "What nonsense."

This is much gentler than the usual scolding.

Yushan Chaodeng was as surprised as if he had discovered a new world, although his eyes only widened slightly. His eyes were originally round, and his pupils were very rare golden, so he really looked a bit like a cat.

Furiya Rei glanced at him and quickly looked away.

"...Mr. Amuro, let me go with you." Miyama Chaodeng reached out to grab his boss's sleeve, but the other party just stretched out his hand and hooked his fingertips very skillfully.

He wanted to let go, but then he thought of his purpose and tightened his grip instead: "I'm really fine now. Yesterday I had... low blood sugar."

Furiya Rei could tell at a glance that he was lying. On normal days he would have pointed this out directly, but today he couldn't say anything so strong for some reason.

The body temperature transmitted from his fingertips reminded him of the temperature in his arms last night. Furuya Rei now fully understood why Miyama Asato was able to fall asleep without any defense. After all, he himself had no right to criticize his adjutant.

Ever since he was assigned an undercover mission to infiltrate an organization after graduation, he has been on the defensive. To put it in an exaggerated way, he is so alert that he would even sleep with one eye open.

Yesterday was probably the first time in all these years that I slept so comfortably, peacefully and without any guard next to someone.

He trusted Yushan Chaodeng so much that when he said he wanted to resign, his first reaction was not to doubt whether he would reveal his identity, but to worry whether his adjutant had encountered some unsolvable problem.

But Rei Furuya never expected that she had trusted him to the extent that she could fall asleep next to him.

"Hey." Furiya Ling sighed, and his purple-gray eyes looked at the adjutant standing in front of him, "Do you know where I'm going?"

--have no idea.

Miyama Chaodeng quickly took a look at his boss's attire. It was clearly a bourbon suit, and now he was here again, so at least he didn't look like someone who was going to work in a coffee shop.

"Anywhere," he answered immediately.

Fūya Rei closed his eyes, took hold of Miyama Asato's hand, and raised it suddenly. The defenseless adjutant fell towards him, almost falling on his chest.

He opened his eyes and nodded slightly, just at the right height for Yushan Chaodeng's ear. He had some malicious intent from nowhere, and deliberately blew a breath into the adjutant's ear, feeling the other person's whole body stiffen, but still trusted him and didn't dodge.

"How can you accompany me when you look so innocent? We will be noticed as soon as we enter." Furuya Ling tilted his head slightly and saw the end of Miyama Asato's hair. He noticed when he was stroking it last night that the adjutant's hair seemed to have grown a little longer.

He wanted to remind the other person to get a haircut, but he also thought it would be nice to keep it longer.

"Mr. Fūya...are you going anywhere unhealthy?" Because they were very close now, Miyama Asato called the other person's real name again.

He tried to recall the sadness of running all day long and only drawing a total of five days for the double reward.

"I can learn." He pursed his lips and said very firmly.

Furiya Ling thought to himself that I would be crazy to teach you this, but his face showed no sign of it: "You can't even say a dirty word, how long do you want me to teach you?"

"...I'm still okay with swearing." Yu Shan choked and replied in a low voice.

The next second, his chin was pinched by Fōtani Rei, and he was forced to admire his boss's deep, and very tender, purple-gray eyes from the best position possible.

"Come on, scold me."

Within less than fourteen hours, he received two such requests. The first was from Morobushi Kagemitsu, and the second was from Mr. Fūya. Miyama Asato felt that these two people were worthy of being childhood friends.

He would not seek scolding, and he believed that Sawada Tsunayoshi would not do so either.

It seems that they are more normal. Is this a generation gap? They are not that far apart in age...

But since he was asked, he still planned to speak. But Miyama Chaodeng quickly remembered the way Zhufu Jingguang laughed so hard after he finished speaking yesterday. He believed that Zhufu Senior was not a perverted masochist, so what he said must be wrong.

“…”

So he tried to think of an offensive word.

It can be said that I hear it quite a lot in normal times, but because he never says it, and everyone uses more honorifics in daily conversation, I really can't say it out loud for a moment.

Furiya Ling sighed and tried to guide him: "Suppose, I called you and asked you to come immediately. It was raining heavily outside. When you arrived, you found that there was almost no place to hide from the rain. I didn't show up, and you waited there for five hours. What would you most want to say to me at that time?"

"...Can I contact you?"

"Well, I showed up at that time to tell you that everything was fine."

"I want to meet you." Miyama Chaodeng looked at him and said. Seeing that Furuya Rei suddenly fell silent, he tried to add, "Because I'm worried that Mr. Furuya might have encountered something else. I don't know what happened in the past five hours. It would be nice to be able to meet..."

Seeing Furiya Rei's suddenly expressionless face, Miyama Chaodeng sighed inwardly, knowing that he had said the wrong thing again. He shut his mouth very simply and waited for his boss's criticism.

But he didn't get any response from the other party for a long time, and he was even released by his boss.

Fūya Rei didn't give him a chance to observe his expression. He turned his back, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said coldly, "Unqualified."

"I……"

Fūya Rei slightly turned sideways, most of his expression hidden by his hair, and glanced at Miyama Chaodeng behind him. He interrupted him: "If you have nothing to do, go back and make up for the previous report."

Miyama Asato was thinking about the report on Gin that he had not yet submitted to his boss, and suddenly became silent.

"I understand, Mr. Fūya." He was silent for a few seconds, then agreed with some frustration.

Hearing the footsteps behind him gradually fading away, Fūya Rei did not take action immediately. He looked down at his hands, staring at them in silence for a long time, and finally put his hands into his hair and lowered his head.

"It's over."

-

Yu Shan Chaodeng walked back to the main road. There were already more people on the road at this time. Even if the man in black came back to attack, he might not attack in the situation where there were so many people and their safety could not be guaranteed.

He didn't quite understand what Mr. Fūya meant by holding him back. If both of them were there and a fight really broke out, the man in black would definitely not be able to escape.

He fought that guy last time, no problem.

However, Miyama Asato still habitually believed in Fūya Rei's judgment, and he probably had other intentions in letting that person go, such as investigating whether there were other forces behind that person.

However, he did not go to the police office to start writing the report immediately as he had promised his superior. Now he was a little reluctant to go back to work directly, so he suddenly felt like wandering around the street for a while.

Yushan Chaodeng seldom goes shopping. At most, he goes to the supermarket on weekends to buy food for the next week. Shopping, which requires doing it with friends, really has no interest for him.

But speaking of shopping, it seems he really should go to the supermarket.

Because of the previous mistake—of course, it wasn’t really a misdiagnosis, but he wasn’t really dead—the food in his home had been completely used up.

Lunch can be eaten in the cafeteria and dinner can be skipped, at least he has to buy some ingredients for breakfast.

He really can't drink the iced American coffee in the office animal meal, he wishes there was no iced American coffee in the world.

Last night, Zhu Fu Jingguang added him as his friend and taught him how to make that super awesome sandwich. This was Yu Shan Chao Deng's main purpose.

After driving to a nearby chain supermarket, Yushan Chaodeng, who skipped work for the first time in his life, felt a little guilty when he entered the supermarket.

But this can't be considered as slacking off. According to Mr. Furutani's opinion, he doesn't have to go out today and can stay at home... have a good rest for another day in Mr. Furutani and his friends' safe house.

He goes out only because he is dedicated to his work. He will go back to work hard later!

Miyama Chaodeng prepared himself mentally like a good student who skipped class for the first time. He went to the door, pulled the cart, entered the supermarket, and started to purchase ingredients according to Zhufu Jingguang's recipe.

This supermarket is very close to his home. Yushan Chaodeng often comes here and is very familiar with all the sections here. When he was about to go to the fresh produce section to buy some meat, Yushan Chaodeng's steps froze and he subconsciously hid behind the shelf.

There stood a man with a cart similar to his next to him, squatting in front of the refrigerator, carefully selecting beef.

The pink-haired man wore a pair of framed glasses and looked gentle and kind, but he always squinted his eyes and smiled, making people doubt whether he could see the words on the box clearly.

It's Okiya Subaru.

Yushan Chaodeng pushed his cart back and squatted behind the shelf. The long windbreaker fell on the ground, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He carefully stretched out half of his head to observe the man over there.

The last time I saw Okiya Subaru was three days ago, no, four days ago, when we solved the case of half of the bomber together.

He was accidentally injured, and he remembered that it was Subaru Okiya who carried him down. During that time, he said some strange things, which made Miyama Asato worry about him for a long time.

As a result, whenever Miyama Asato woke up in his boss's bed, he kept thinking about Akai Shuichi. In the end, in order to appease his boss who hated the FBI so much, he swore a solemn oath, "From now on, I will treat Akai Shuichi as dead."

...Ah, of course this poison may be for Akai Shuichi.

Okiya Subaru finally hesitated between the two boxes of beef. After picking up one, he couldn't bear to give up the other one.

The hesitant look on that handsome face actually seemed somewhat cute, clear and simple, not at all like the impression that Miyama Asato had of Akai Shuichi.

If this is also Akai Shuichi's acting, it's too...

Miyama Chaodeng feels that the FBI’s character design is somewhat broken.

But he still couldn't give up this idea, and Yushan Chaodeng bit the tip of his left thumb with some distress.

Mr. Fūya had been suspicious of this person's identity from the beginning. Although he personally confirmed that Akai Shuichi and Okiya Subaru were two different people that day, Miyama Asato still found him very suspicious.

There was no reason for him to follow ordinary citizens based on suspicion alone, but he felt like something was missing if he really gave up... After a brief thought, Yushan Chaodeng decided to use the most direct method.

"Isn't this Officer Miyama?"

Xiao Shekong was determined to strike up a conversation. Just as he was preparing himself mentally, someone took the initiative to talk to him.

An elegant voice sounded behind him, and the guilty Miyama Asato was startled, but fortunately he maintained his POKERFACE, slowly turned his head, and saw the smiling Okiya Subaru.

"Long time no see, are you feeling better?" Okiya Subaru greeted him with a smile, "Miya...ah, no, Asako-kun. Last time you promised me to let me call you by your name."

-

Miyama Asato was not sure why things turned out this way. He helped Okiya Subaru carry two shopping bags, allowed him to get into his beloved car, drove him back, and then left dinner for him at his home.

Okiya Subaru's invitation was so sincere that he really couldn't refuse it.

He is rarely the one who refuses people. Usually, many people would actively avoid him when they see his cold face, but when he meets someone like Okiya Subaru, he is completely at a disadvantage.

The villain in Miyama Chaodeng's heart began to cry. He felt that if Mr. Fūya knew what happened today, he would probably be scolded again.

"Finally put it away. Fortunately, I met you. Who could have thought that my car would break down suddenly? There are so many things, otherwise I really don't know what to do." Okiya Subaru closed the trunk door, came to the numb-faced Miyama Asato, and said to him with a smile.

"......Yeah." Yushan Chaodeng responded perfunctorily.

Subaru Okiya didn't care about his attitude. He smiled with his eyes curved. Suddenly, he reached out and took something out of Miyama Asato's hair and held it up to show it to Miyama Asato.

"Is it a cat or a dog?" Subaru Okiya asked, pinching a small strand of white cat hair.

Yushan Chaodeng's first reaction was that it was hard for you to find such a short white cat hair among my white hair. Then he thought that the cat transformed by this unlucky system could actually shed hair, and its useless abilities increased again.

"I got a cat." He was still as calm as ever when he said it, and you couldn't tell how devastated he was inside.

...He obviously just wanted to test Okiya Subaru a few times, just like a boss, a few simple and profound words could stir up other people's nerves and make them tense.

As expected, the gap between him and Mr. Fūya is very, very huge.

…

"Ah!" While driving past a place, Vodka suddenly noticed something.

Just like he said last time, some people will attract everyone's attention wherever they stand. In the not-so-empty parking area in front of the supermarket, Vodka saw the little white-haired guy at a glance.

"It's...that person!" Vodka swallowed the word "brother". Gin didn't tell him that it would be better for him not to know too much, so he pointed vaguely.

Gin looked in the direction he directed and his eyelids twitched violently.

Miyama Asato stood there, being intimate with a pink-haired man.

The two of them went out shopping together like a couple living together. The pink-haired man put the bags in the car, and Yushan Chaodeng stood behind and helped pass the noodles from the cart.

After everything was done, the two of them talked to each other, and the pink-haired man lowered his head slightly and helped him tidy up his hair very gently.

Gin: “…”

Vodka also opened his mouth wide. If I remember correctly, the eldest brother's younger brother seemed to be struggling between Bourbon and Scotland a few days ago.

He looked at his eldest brother cautiously. Gin stared ahead, not knowing what he was thinking. After a long while, he finally spoke quietly, "The fourth one."

Vodka: Huh?

Vodka: Huh???

He looked at Gin, with expressions of resentment (why should I go out today), shock (he actually still has the cat pinching skill), relief (forget it, is this the first day you know him?), and mockery (haha, Bourbon; haha, Scotland) appearing in his eyes one after another. Vodka felt that it was time for him to make his debut.

"In fact, open relationships are still very normal in this era. People are always fickle, and fixed partners are prone to quarrels, which affects the harmony of life." Vodka tried to convince himself, "Besides, that guy has such a good-looking face, it would be a shame to only date one person. If I had that kind of face, I wouldn't even close the door when I take a shower."

Gin looked at Vodka, and Vodka successfully convinced himself.

"Beauty is only worthy of the strong. He just found four lovers. Just four, it shows that he is very strong! Living together is nothing big." Vodka complimented his eldest brother's younger brother a little, and after seeing his eldest brother's more subtle look, he realized something was wrong.

He shouldn't be able to guess that the little guy is eldest brother's younger brother. Although he said this to praise eldest brother's family, it is not something he should know, so the focus should still be on eldest brother.

Vodka said to Gin solemnly: "And I believe that big brother can do it too. If it's big brother, he must be better than those people!"

Gin: Huh?

Gin: Huh? ? ? ?

Gin glared at Vodka fiercely. Vodka shrank his neck, restarted the car and drove away, leaving Gin leaning in the car seat in embarrassment and expressionless.

The world has gone completely crazy.

Even if I jump down from here and die outside, I will never get close to Yushan Chaodeng!

I'll go back and find an opportunity to make things difficult for Bourbon.

-

Miyama Asato's reputation was damaged once again without her knowledge. She sneezed quietly in the driver's seat, which attracted Subaru Okiya's concern: "Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Miyama Asato replied very coldly, fastened his seat belt listlessly, started the car, and didn't want to say a single extra word to Okiya Subaru.

Subaru Okiya, who was sitting in the passenger seat, laughed. He tilted his head and looked at the white-haired young man who was driving. The other party looked healthier than the previous times, but his personality was still very interesting.

"Don't make that expression. This isn't the first time we've met. In fact, I really want to be friends with you." Okiya Subaru smiled and spoke in a gentle tone like some nobleman.

Miyama Asato's ears twitched, not because of Okiya Subaru's overflowing kindness towards him, but because of the other party's first words.

He had just heard it from another person not long ago.

His expression became quiet, he pursed his lips, and said meaningfully: "That requires the approval of my superior."

Only Okiya Subaru couldn't understand what he was saying, but only Akai Shuichi could understand his threat.

"boss?"

There was just the right amount of doubt on Okiya Subaru's face, but Miyama Asato knew that he was now doubting this guy. Even if the other party did not reveal any flaws, he would only think that the other party had excellent acting skills.

"Your boss is really annoying, even if he's still in charge of your friendships." Okiya Subaru narrowed his eyes and said in a light tone, "Even lovers wouldn't be so strict."

Endless entanglement... Shuichi Akai did say this to Mr. Fūya at the time.

"Because the target is you." Miyama Chao Deng replied. He has confirmed 80% that Okiya Subaru is Akai Shuichi. His tone has become impolite, "It's never too careful."

"Oh, it's really an honor." Okiya Subaru was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "But can you tell me what made you unhappy? I really like you, Chao Deng, and I really want to make friends with you."

The car stopped by the roadside. Yu Shan Chaodeng unbuckled his seat belt, opened the door and got out.

Then, in front of Subaru Okiya, he took off his windbreaker and suit jacket and threw them on the seat, revealing a neat white shirt.

There are two decorative black leather cuffs on the upper arms, and a black gun belt that runs from both sides of the shoulders to the back divides the shirt into four parts, outlining a very thin waistline.

Miyama Asato also took down his gun and hooked his finger at Okiya Subaru: "Come down, I'll tell you."

Okiya Subaru opened his eyes slightly, a dark green light flashed across them, and he said with a wry smile: "It seems that I have no room for refusal."

…

The car stopped on the side of the road, and there was a small lawn inside.

There is a residential area nearby, and not many people come at this time, so it is a very quiet place.

When Okiya Subaru just got off the car, Miyama Asato's straight punch came towards him. He easily dodged it by turning his head, saying, "Oh my, that was dangerous. It almost hit me."

Miyama Chao Deng felt that the possibility could be raised to 90%. The person Mr. Furiya talked to at Kudo's house last time was most likely someone else's fake. If Mr. Furiya was as impulsive as he was this time and punched the other person directly, he would definitely be able to test it out.

After all, as long as there is someone who can disguise himself, anyone can disguise himself as Okiya Subaru, but not everyone has the skills of Akai Shuichi.

Miyama Asato kicked forward while retreating, but Okiya Subaru forcibly took the kick and shook his hands exaggeratedly.

"Can't we sit down and talk?" Okiya Subaru asked helplessly.

He was greeted with another leg lift.

Miyama Asato usually practices with Furiya Rei, who taught him to punch more often, and Miyama Asato is also good at boxing. But his arms are not as strong as his boss's, so he can't avoid using his lower body to attack.

But sitting down and talking was impossible, as he had long wanted to fight with Akai Shuichi again and again.

He didn't do anything the last time they met because he really didn't have the energy to do so. He could never forget the lesson he received from Shuichi Akai.

He didn't say anything, but just continued to attack. Okiya Subaru also understood what he meant, and finally switched from defense to attack.

The Jeet Kune Do that Subaru Okiya practices is a free-fighting technique that combines the strengths of many schools. The most famous representative of this style was Bruce Lee back then.

Subaru Okiya had also practiced Jeet Kune Do to the pinnacle. Once he started to fight back, Asato Miyama immediately felt the pressure.

But he had already made this mental preparation, and the sudden heavy attacks were also blocked. Occasionally, a few punches were not blocked, but Yushan Chaodeng also had a plug-in that numb the sense of pain.

However, after several attacks, Okiya Subaru finally felt something was wrong when Miyama Asato showed no sign of pain. He quickly and gently grabbed Miyama Asato's hand, and with his knee, he pressed Miyama Asato to the ground with the same move as three years ago.

One of the white-haired young man's hands was tied behind his back, and Okiya Subaru's knee was pressed against his back, and he was completely suppressed.

"...Huh." Okiya Subaru breathed a sigh of relief, and his voice suddenly became deep. It was the voice of Akai Shuichi, which Miyama Asato was very impressed with.

Subaru Okiya's glasses had fallen off somewhere during the fight. He opened his eyes, revealing dark green pupils, and said with some helplessness in his voice: "What a difficult kid."

He deliberately used the same name as three years ago, and successfully saw the white-haired young man bite his lower lip.

"What's wrong with your body? It doesn't hurt even like this?" Akai Shuichi's question this time was much friendlier than before. He used a little force in his hand, and the white-haired young man under him didn't even frown. "If you use more force, it will break. You didn't do anything dangerous, did you?"

Ever since their last conversation in the abandoned building, Shuichi Akai inexplicably developed a sense of responsibility towards Asato Miyama.

There was no essential conflict between them, and the other party was so outstanding that if he could lend a hand, he would never push him away.

"It's you." Miyama Chao Deng's voice didn't even tremble. He said coldly, "Akai Shuichi."

Akai Shuichi was a little depressed that Miyama Chaodeng was still paying attention to these things, and began to wonder how Bourbon usually educated this child? If he was his subordinate, he would definitely not be so stubborn.

So, Bourbon is also a guy who likes to get stuck in a rut.

"Are you here to seek revenge on me?" Akai Shuichi shook his head, reached out and grabbed the back of Miyama Asato's neck, using a little force.

Since the explanation didn't make sense, he didn't plan to continue. He did admire Yushan Chaodeng, but he would not affect the overall situation for him.

His tone lowered a little, and he chuckled, just like the joke he had read out word by word from his police ID back then: "You're still a little naive, boy. In another ten years, there's still a chance."

At his age now, he can no longer be considered a 'boy'. Even though he was mocked like this, he was not as angry as he was three years ago.

"I have grown a lot in this area... hmmm!"

Akai Shuichi suddenly groaned, and when he reacted, he was thrown on the grass on his back. The soft grass relieved most of the pressure, so it didn't hurt.

The white-haired young man who had already stood up stretched his stiff arms and looked down at him, his golden pupils shining brightly.

"It won't take ten years." Yu Shan said word by word, "This time I just sneaked up on you, but next time I will definitely make you convinced."

Akai Shuichi was stunned for a moment, then he laughed: "Okay, if you can keep Bourbon a secret for me, I will be your sparring partner for a year."

"Stop dreaming, I'm a public security officer." Yushan Chaodeng stretched out his hand with a cold face, and Akai Shuichi stood up with the help of his hand.

"Well, how about a month?" Akai Shuichi adjusted his neck, and his voice returned to the voice of Okiya Subaru, a gentle and elegant gentleman, "You keep it a secret for me for a month."

"Impossible." Yushan Chaodeng refused decisively.

"I can accept your surveillance, including the bathroom." Okiya Subaru saw the reflection in the grass, picked up his glasses, wiped them briefly and put them on, "At least give me some time, sir?"

Yushan Chaodeng really wants to say that he is not a pervert, who would put a camera in your bathroom?

He was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that "pervert" could also be considered a dirty word.

"I trust you very much, so I am willing to reveal my identity to you." Akai Shuichi said with a smile. His words were a request, but it was not obvious from his attitude. "Just like you kept Bourbon's secret, can you also keep it for me?"

There was a hint of temptation in his tone, but Yushan Chaodeng didn't buy it at all: "I have nothing to do with you."

"So, you are related to Amuro-kun." Akai Shuichi asked, his voice suddenly rising.

"Of course, can you be like him?" Miyama Chao Deng asked as a matter of course, "Mr. Amuro is my..."

His words stopped in mid-air, and suddenly he saw five or six more heads around him.

Right next to his beloved car, a small car appeared, and five little heads of the Junior Detective Team and Dr. Agasa's head popped out of it.

It also includes Kudo Shinichi's expression of wanting to hide when he saw him, but being really curious about the content and hesitant to speak.

Yushan Chaodeng closed his mouth.

However, Akai Shuichi refused to let him go, and asked with a smile: "What is Mr. Amuro to you? It's really curious."

Three people at the window nodded their heads very quickly, and the remaining few who were a little more mature also had curious expressions.

Yushan Chaodeng: "..."

Shuichi Akai made a 'please' gesture to him, and Miyama Chaodeng decided to call his boss right away and expose Shuichi Akai's identity.

In addition to Shuichi Akai, he still has some impressions of the kids in the car over there, from his previous life. What is certain is that these kids are among the protagonists.

However, under the gaze of Junhong, Miyama Asato once again felt the pressure of Junhei that Gin brought to him back then.

"Mr. Amuro is my...lover." Miyama Asato said this word very difficultly, and his ears instantly felt burning.

But it wasn't that difficult to say it. He looked at Akai Shuichi who was smiling even brighter beside him, and said quickly and calmly: "Yes, we are dating. Because of the special reasons of my work, I hope you can keep this matter confidential."

never mind.

Bourbon is already his lover, so he doesn't need another one. ：，m..，.
