Chapter 75 The Model Worker's Imagination
Because of the organization's secretive nature, most members were unaware of its inner workings. Even he didn't understand it at first. There were quite a few members in the organization with good 'cleaning' abilities.
Why did that person test him with a mercenary mission and then choose to make him his 'executioner'? And why did he deliberately use various privileges to elevate his status in the organization, making him the third-in-command so quickly?
It wasn't until he had been in the organization for a long time that he secretly arranged for people to collect various intelligence about the organization. Only then did he find a clue. According to the intelligence he investigated, Rum, who was the second-in-command of the organization, sounded like that person's confidant.
In reality, because Rum held a great deal of leverage over privileged individuals from around the world, and thus wielded considerable influence over Japan and Western countries, he became less obedient to that man's orders.
In stark contrast to that gentleman's low-key style, he was extremely arrogant and unrestrained until he made a major mistake 17 years ago, at which point he became a little more subdued. However, within the organization, Rum still wielded a voice and a solid core of support that was no less than that gentleman.
Many members of the organization even only obeyed Rum's orders. Before they joined the organization, Rum often arranged and directed members to do certain actions without Rum's permission.
In short, the organization knows its members inside and out, and those members who have been brainwashed and trained from childhood are either Rum's people or they obey both Rum's and that person's orders. The BOSS faction, who only obey that person, is a minority.
Presumably, that's why that person recruited people from outside, deliberately delegating power to him so that he could suppress Rum's influence, cultivate loyal followers who were only loyal to that person, and intimidate Rum's members with his ruthless 'executioner' style...
This also led to the FBI agent Shuichi Akai, the two Japanese public security officers, Scottish and Sakakibara, and that guy whose background was unknown—I think it was Hondo or something—who was killed by Kir, infiltrating the organization and causing a lot of trouble.
Rum had become much more subdued after becoming the third-in-command of the organization, but he became arrogant again after the organization's boss went into seclusion three years ago and stopped appearing in front of the organization members.
Not only did they use the organization's techniques to hypnotize its members and turn them into confidants, but they also developed many loyal followers. They even sent these guys around to probe and try to find the man's secluded place...
Therefore, based on the current information about the future and his understanding of the organization's situation, Gin believes that the reason for this strange phenomenon is very likely that Rum harbors ulterior motives and has the intention to rebel and usurp the throne.
That lord sensed his intentions, which is why he deliberately cultivated himself as the third-in-command to oppose him, and hid his tracks. He estimated that Rum would be more skilled next year and successfully usurp the throne, which is why he, as that lord's executioner, was brought down.
.
After Rum came to power, Bourbon and other of Rum's confidants were naturally given important positions. As for the piglet, given his habit of rarely contacting her, even if the monthly remittances were suspended, she wouldn't have imagined that she had already fallen from grace.
On the contrary, during this period, given Rum's domineering personality of being guilty of anything without question, even though he hadn't told Fat Piglet about the organization, if he successfully usurped the throne...
The person in charge processed the personal information of the members for him.
There's no guarantee that there won't be traitors among the intelligence personnel, who might leak their personal information to Rum. Then, before Rum is certain of his own fate, he'll probably arrange for people to monitor Fat Piglet.
Logically speaking, if he hadn't died, but because of the situation where that person was already dead, he would most likely choose to lie low and wait for an opportunity to take revenge. During this time, he could ignore the life and death of anyone else, but he might be worried about his own little piglet and secretly contact her.
Although, given her personality, she would never seek revenge for a defeated general, but only to avenge her own downfall and find a way to get back at him, she would definitely contact Fat Piglet as long as she was alive, so that she wouldn't worry about him.
So perhaps Granwitt and Dalmore were responsible for monitoring the piglet, and later developed a romantic relationship with him, which led to the piglet possibly joining the organization for Granwitt's sake.
It's also possible that they'll always remain family members of organization members, rather than being actual members of the organization...
Whether Fat Piglet joined the organization voluntarily in the future to investigate his own fate, was lured into the organization by Rum's men, or formed contact with the organization under the surveillance and deliberate approach of Rum's members...
Regardless of the possibility, now that Rum has successfully taken power, he will naturally erase all traces and evidence of his usurpation and attacks on him. Given the piglet's abilities, it would be difficult to uncover the truth under such a 'clean' environment.
His current power in the organization is roughly equal to that of that person. If he were to launch a coup, even if it were next year, he would likely suffer huge losses. Besides, that person said that Rum's intelligence is currently just sitting on its slate.
He no longer had the means to gather more intelligence on important figures from various countries. Once those he could threaten and use were dead, or no longer of value to the organization, he would be useless.
Therefore, Gin speculates that Rum suffered huge losses in his 'final battle' with that person, or that he threatened and exploited them during this period in order to obtain more private information about important figures from various countries in the future.
After successfully developing time travel technology within his organization, he deliberately sent test subjects back in time to contact his confidants, using the information they knew about the future to build an even more powerful force than before.
And to dismantle the manpower of that person, so as to achieve the goal of successfully usurping the throne with minimal losses. The only thing that is unclear is why the person chosen to control the ability to travel through time and space is Fat Piglet. Even the two future members of the organization who seem to have a good relationship with her do not have this kind of authority.
The fat piglet is the one who controls this ability; the ability to travel through time is in the hands of the fat piglet in 2025. Does this mean the organization's time travel technology is selective, and only the fat piglet can use it? I feel like there are still a few things that don't add up in this reasoning...
.
Just as Gin was imagining this 'truth', Bourbon, upon hearing the phrase 'Rum in the future 2025,' instantly realized that Matsuda and Hagiwara had made up their own ideas and somehow tricked Gin into believing that this time travel technology was Rum's masterpiece.
Given Bourbon's intelligence-gathering abilities, even if he was initially unaware of the turbulent power struggles at the top of the organization, the longer he stayed in the organization and the more inside information he investigated, the more he would naturally become aware of the organization's power structure.
In short, the organization BO
SS is very mysterious. Only a very few trusted confidants and close associates whom he admires and trusts can get the opportunity to be summoned by him. Most members of the organization never see him in person from the time they join until they die.
Although Rum is the organization's second-in-command and is considered by most members to be the organization's boss's confidant, he has actually been urging and arranging for the organization's members to find the organization's boss's secluded place for the past three years.
What trusted confidant wouldn't even know where their master is? It's fair to say that Bourbon only realized he had infiltrated the wrong ship after receiving this order three years ago and immediately launching various investigations, even digging up Vermouth's past.
He thought that by quickly gaining Rum's approval and becoming his confidant, he could follow him to the opportunity to meet the organization's BOSS and wipe out this secretive and mysterious criminal gang.
As it turned out, the mud boat he chose was one where he could never see the organization's boss. The organization's boss and Rum, his nominal confidant, were actually potential enemies vying for power. Following him meant he would never see the organization's boss, and it was only because he was cautious enough that he wasn't killed as an accomplice of Rum's plot to usurp the throne.
It can be said that the description of Rum as a confidant is exactly the same as the descriptions of Rum's image in the organization, including men, women, and old men. The BOSS must be very angry that a confidant has been added to his list!
It was because of these discoveries that Bourbon realized that in order to achieve his goals and confirm the true identity of the organization's boss, he would have to capture heavyweight traitors or rivals like Sherry and Shuichi Akai to have a chance of being summoned by the organization's boss.
As a result, neither Shuichi Akai nor Sherry has been caught. Instead, he heard Gin say something that made him feel that Gin might have been misled by Matsuda and the others, and he could hear the deep suspicion in Gin's tone.
As long as he can dismantle this organization and bring its boss and everyone else to justice, Bourbon, who has been working at the brewery for seven years and is now as cunning as a black sesame dumpling filling, doesn't care about deceiving Gin!
He's not like Hagiwara, reserving someone's brother-in-law's seat and not afraid of offending him at all... cough! His childhood friend's revival ticket is still in his sister's hands, so at least for now, he can't afford to offend him too much, lest his sister hold a grudge.
After all, the siblings seem to have a good relationship! If he goes too far and angers Gin, his sister will definitely hate him too! Thinking of this, Bourbon, who was originally full of malice, silently diluted half of his malice.
Then, in his clear and innocent voice, he replied, "What future Rum? I don't know anything about that! Why are you saying such strange things today!"
"Just thinking about your innocent expression makes me want to vomit." Gin never cares about his villainous face when dealing with anyone; being two-faced, untrustworthy, and using coercion and bribery are all his specialties.
Aside from his own sister, he never knew what it meant to show mercy to anyone else. Even with Fat Pig's boyfriend, a simple reminder was the most lenient thing he could do. Not to mention, in his mind, Bourbon was just a friend of his Fat Pig's boyfriend.
So, without a care, he launched into a threatening mode: "Bourbon, do you want to keep Pisco company? I don't mind sending you on your way today. You don't think you can escape my tracking, do you? My nose is always very sensitive to prey."
