Death Countdown: 6D
003
Miyama Asato's first reaction was that Furuya Rei wanted to kill people to silence them.
Of course this is an exaggeration. After all, the boss is a public security officer and will not do anything illegal or criminal.
Miyama Asato sadly discovered that he was still a little afraid of Furuya Rei, but his expressionless face was even colder than ice, making people feel chilly in the early spring day.
"There's nothing to talk about." He lowered his eyes, and his light eyelashes, which were similar in color to his hair, cast a small shadow on his face. He avoided Furuya Rei's sight, "I've said everything I wanted to say."
"Men who keep pestering others will be annoying, Furuya Rei-kun." Akai Shuichi laughed and naturally interrupted the conversation between the two. "Occasionally, you have to give others some freedom."
"It's none of your business, Akai Shuichi." Furiya Rei's tone was also very impolite. The two of them called each other by their full names. "Stay away from my people."
Seeing these two people arguing, and the content of the dispute was actually himself, a barely perceptible confusion flashed in Yushan Chaodeng's eyes.
But he was obviously just an innocent bystander who was dragged into the feud between the two. Even if he was not there, they would still fight when they met.
Miyama Asato told himself to keep calm for a while, and when they finished this round, he said that he wanted to go back and rest.
He had gone through several days without a rest and was now really tired.
"This is none of your business, Bourbon. I have no obligation to report to you, and of course, he will soon have no such obligation."
"Akai Shuichi, you..."
"Enough!" Yushan Chaodeng finally couldn't bear it anymore and interrupted their conversation. If left alone, these two people looked like they would quarrel until dawn.
He first looked at Akai Shuichi. The man was wearing his signature knitted hat. His hair had changed from long to short, but the dangerous temperament in his cold green eyes was still the same as before.
Even though the other party was very friendly during this meeting, when Miyama Chaodeng saw those eyes, he remembered the time three years ago when Akai Hide half-knelt in front of him and asked him with a smile when he had no power to fight back, "Who sent you here, kid?"
As expected, he agreed very much with Furuya Rei on this point. The FBI hated him very much.
"Thank you very much for what happened tonight. But your current behavior is beyond my comprehension." Yu Shan raised his chin towards Deng, revealing his golden pupils. "I haven't officially resigned yet."
This was an obvious threat, meaning that he was still qualified to arrest Akai Shuichi, especially since he was a public security officer, and the procedure in this regard was simple and easy.
Akai Shuichi raised his eyebrows and spread his hands to indicate: "I'll leave now."
But he didn't act immediately, and Miyama Asato looked at Furuya Rei. His boss was looking at him with a look that he couldn't understand, a seriousness that could be misunderstood.
It must be an illusion.
Miyama Chaodeng grabbed his wrist through his sleeve and lifted it up: "Come with me to the nearest 711 now, write your resignation letter and print it out, and I'll give it directly to you."
Furugaya Rei was stunned for a moment, and Akai Shuichi's merciless laughter came from the side. The man in the knitted hat held the car door, ignoring the other party as if Furugaya Rei ignored him at the beginning, and nodded to Miyama Chaodeng: "Then, I will leave first."
He got in the car. Kamil was probably already prepared. The car raised a small amount of dust and drove away quickly, leaving Miyama Chaodeng alone to face Furuya Rei.
After Akai Shuichi's interruption, Miyama Asato was no longer in the mood he was in just now. After his emotions passed, he looked at his boss's very handsome face that made people ptsd, and belatedly realized that he was a little scared.
Taking my boss to write my resignation letter in person, he must have been hit by a car to come up with such a bad idea.
Miyama Chaodeng released Furukaya Rei's wrist and hid his hand behind his back. He was panicking inside, but he couldn't show it on the surface. He said the most cowardly words in the coldest tone: "...Or I can go to your office tomorrow to find you, is that ok? Mr. Furukaya, will you go tomorrow?"
Fūya Rei didn't say anything. Miyama Chaodeng assumed that he had agreed and nodded slightly at him: "Then I will go back first. You should also go back and rest early."
He turned around at the fastest speed in his life, and the next second someone behind him held his shoulders.
Yushan Chaodeng's body stiffened slightly: "Do you have anything else to say?"
He didn't turn back, but just tilted his face. His white-gloved hand rested on his shoulder, and he could faintly feel the warmth through the fabric.
"Are you in trouble?" Furuya Rei's voice was lower than usual, and it was not like the tone he usually used as a boss. It was even a little gentle. "If you don't want to tell me, I won't ask you. But if you need my help, I will definitely do my best."
Miyama Chaodeng opened his eyes slightly. This was the first time he heard Furuya Rei say such caring words. It was incredible.
"So, I hope you can reconsider your resignation. You are still young, Chao Deng, don't be impulsive." Furugaya Rei took a deep breath and persuaded in a gentle tone.
He didn't persuade him to stay because Yushan Chaodeng was useful, he really felt it was a pity. With Yushan Chaodeng's resume, anyone who heard it would say that he had a promising future.
"But, no matter what, in the days ahead..."
He didn't finish his words, his eyes were fixed on a pair of golden pupils. Furiya Ling always thought that the adjutant's eyes were very beautiful, especially after hearing some of his words, she would suddenly stare at him in a daze, and then slowly agree, like a cat.
Today seemed to be a similar scene, but he noticed that Miyama Chaodeng's eyes seemed a little red. The adjutant had fair skin, so this color was very clear.
"You simply..." Yushan Chaodeng squeezed out half a sentence from his teeth. He took a breath and finally turned around with great force.
"It's okay. I don't need any help. I'm fine." His tone returned to normal, as cold and calm as usual, but his expression could not be seen. "Go to bed early and take care of yourself."
After saying this, he didn't wait for Furutani Rei to continue speaking and left quickly.
Furiya Ling watched his back disappear into the corridor, and after a while, he slowly took out his cell phone from his pocket. He hadn't checked his phone for just 20 minutes, and it was full of messages waiting for him to process.
He raised his hand and pressed his brow with the knuckle of his index finger, then sighed for some reason. When he opened his eyes again, he regained his usual calmness and dialed one of the numbers: "I'll be there right away."
·
Yushan Chaodeng leaned back against the door, fiddled with the door behind his back a few times to lock it, and slowly slid to the ground.
He buried his face in his arms, his body trembled slightly, and he made very small sobbing sounds.
He is not a child anymore, and it is really embarrassing to cry like this, but he really can't help it.
Furiya Rei knew nothing and had good intentions. But it was precisely because he knew this that Miyama Asato felt even more sad.
If there is no physical reaction at all, he might live on with the hope that 'a miracle may happen to me'.
But when he came to Yeya tonight, perhaps because he had consumed too much energy in the past few days, he really felt overwhelmed. This was also his consideration when he accepted Akai Shuichi's invitation.
After resting for a while, he regained some energy to deal with the things that followed. If he didn't leave quickly, he would probably faint in front of Furuya Rei.
Yushan Chaodeng really felt that he didn't have much time left.
He calmed himself down, took out his cell phone from his pocket, found one of the numbers and dialed it.
No one answered the phone until the busy speaker stopped. Yushan Chaodeng wiped his face with his sleeve to wipe off the water stains. At this moment, someone called.
"Sorry, Asahi, my phone just fell into the lake... This is the third one I've changed this month." A young man's gentle voice came from the other end of the phone. He seemed to be very familiar with Miyama Asahi. Both his tone and the content of his words were very casual. "Why are you calling at this time? It's early morning there, right? Are you working overtime again?"
"Tsunayoshi." Miyama Chaodeng slowly called the other party's name. Hearing the voice of his childhood sweetheart at this time made him feel a lot better.
"Wait a moment." Sawada Tsunayoshi paused, and put aside the topic he had been wanting to talk about with his friend for a while. He walked from the noisy environment to a quieter place, and his voice was filled with a tolerant smile, which made people feel very reassured. "What's wrong? Did your boss scold you again?"
Yushan smiled at Deng, his voice a little nasal, it was obvious that he had just cried: "No."
He recalled that when he first started working, his son Xunran also went to Italy to inherit the family property. Both of them were newcomers who were not very familiar with their current jobs.
During that period, Miyama Asato was scolded by his boss all day long, while Sawada Tsunayoshi was given love education by a cruel tutor.
The two would make a long-distance phone call almost every day, crying and complaining about their superiors and teachers.
Thinking back now, they were so childish back then. They would not do such embarrassing things long ago.
Now, he can almost stand on his own, and You Xunran has also become the boss of the fishery company who has the final say. They have all grown up.
Sawada Tsunayoshi's laughter also came from the other end of the phone, and it was obvious that he also remembered what happened at that time. He could sense that something had happened to Miyama Asato that he didn't want to tell him, so he didn't ask, and gently brought up the topic that had been put aside to his friend: "Yesterday, when I was discussing a new contract with the Xifen family... the seafood processing company, Hayato and Takeru..."
Yushan Chaodeng listened to the voice of his friend on the other end of the phone, lowered his eyes and looked at his fingertips, wondering what he was thinking.
Sawada Tsunayoshi was his only friend since childhood. Although there were more people around Tsunayoshi later, their relationship was still different. There would not be any estrangement even if they hadn't seen each other for a few years.
Although he knew that his friend seemed to be hiding something from him, this would not affect his relationship with Sawada Tsunayoshi. It is not that you are good friends just because you can talk about everything. As long as they are both working hard, that is enough.
If there was anyone he cared about before he died, it was Sawada Tsunayoshi.
"…In the end, he was taken back by Hibari-senpai." After Sawada Tsunayoshi finished telling the story, they both laughed at the same time.
At this time, Miyama Asato said casually, "By the way, Tsunayoshi. How about I go to Italy to see you?"
"Eh? No problem at all." Sawada Tsunayoshi didn't expect the topic to change so quickly, but he agreed without any hesitation and asked, "Aren't you busy at work?"
"Not busy anymore... I mean not busy recently. I plan to use up my annual leave." Miyama Chaodeng didn't plan to tell him that he had resigned, not only because he had to hide his illness, but also because his good friends supported him in taking the police exam.
He was a little hesitant at first, worried that he had a bad personality and couldn't do such a job. It was Sawada Tsunayoshi who strongly persuaded him to go.
Although I don't know why, Tsunayoshi's expression was a little strange at that time. And after learning that he passed the exam, from the video of the video call, we can see that Sawada Tsunayoshi looked at the sea outside for a long time, and finally said something inexplicable like "Just in case... Although it may not happen, please go easy on me, Asato."
"Of course, we haven't seen each other for three or four years, right?" Sawada Tsunayoshi's voice became cheerful, and he seemed to be walking somewhere, "I will definitely treat you well! There will definitely be no accidents! Let you return to Japan safely!"
He made a very strange wish, and then asked, "When will you arrive?"
"Ming..." Miyama Asato paused, and his cell phone vibrated. Miyama Asato put down the phone and took a look. There was a new email from someone named "Amuro Toru".
【I will go to the police station tomorrow. 】
Miyama Chaodeng deleted the email and said to Xiao Xunran on the other end of the phone with a smile: "The day after tomorrow."
I'm going to meet Furuya Rei tomorrow. I have to throw my resignation letter in front of him and let him see my determination to quit!
