Chapter 2237 2249 [No Conscience]

Shuichi Akai sat in the interrogation room of the Metropolitan Police Department, waiting for James to handle the follow-up.

Apart from not being able to use his mobile phone temporarily, he felt quite comfortable here and had plenty of time to think about problems.

——Bourbon was actually involved with Uzo. If I remember correctly, Bourbon was almost burned to death by that guy in the Twin Towers not long ago.

...Or maybe tonight was not a pre-arranged collaboration, but Bourbon was just being used by the other side?

Shuichi Akai glanced through the open door at Amuro Toru, who was in a good mood, and for a moment he felt like he was looking at two brothers in distress.

...Of course, no matter what the reason is, these things cannot be discussed in the Metropolitan Police Department.

And Amuro Toru, the apparent "member of the organization", did not stay in the police base for long. He stirred up trouble for a while and then left leisurely.

For Toru Amuro, what happened today was purely a spur-of-the-moment decision - he happened to be working at the restaurant where the police were having their dinner party, and when he heard the noise and went out to take a look, he saw Shuichi Akai fighting with a policeman on the street.

The opportunity was rare, and without hesitating for too long, Toru Amuro decisively stepped forward to give a helping hand: Even if going to the police station could not bring a real blow to Shuichi Akai, at least it could put the actions of these FBI groups under the nose of the Tokyo police, preventing them from doing things secretly behind his back.

"But why did he suddenly clash with the police?"

Amuro Toru touched his chin in confusion, muttering to himself: "I heard from Sato that Akai was chasing an innocent passerby at the time... Haha, someone who can think of using the police to escape pursuit can't be a real 'innocent passerby'. Could it be that he is actually a cunning member of the organization?"

Realizing that he might have interrupted Shuichi Akai's pursuit of the organization's members...

Not only did Toru Amuro not feel any pain in his conscience, but it became even more lively.

—— If the FBI can’t get the intelligence, what does it have to do with him, an undercover agent in Tokyo?

"If it was any other FBI agent, it would be fine, but it was Shuichi Akai who did it, so you can't blame me." Amuro Toru thought to himself, "After all, I'm an undercover agent, and I have to do something to maintain the image of Bourbon. Helping members of the organization get rid of other organizations' pursuit is obviously an action that fits my position well and is beneficial to me."

"The only problem is, we don't know who the unlucky guy is. Never mind, it's not a big deal. We're both in Tokyo, so we'll meet again sooner or later."

…

Shuichi Akai had a pretty bad night in the police station, and was finally led out by his boss James after completing the formalities.

"I never thought I could save you once." James stroked his gray hair and laughed, "I never thought it would be in this way."

"..." Akai Shuichi sighed, "I wanted to break away from his rhythm, but I didn't expect to fall into his trap. His control over people's hearts is far beyond my expectations."

This made Shuichi Akai alert and he also reflected secretly: In fact, he should have had a premonition as early as when he saw Judy being played around by the other party, because a considerable part of Judy's actions during this period were actually planned by him.

But he didn't take it too seriously because of the difference in strength between him and Judy. Until he took the initiative... and then was easily tricked by the other party.

Akai Shuichi belatedly remembered something: "What's the situation in Karuizawa? Any new information?"

He believed that what happened to him last night must have been caused by Uzo. So it seems that the main stage of yesterday was actually in this city and on that bus, not in that forest villa in Gunma Prefecture.

However, the next moment, seeing James' complicated expression, Shuichi Akai realized that he had failed to guess the other party's routine again.

Akai Shuichi frowned: "What happened over there?"

"It's nothing, actually..." James still took Ace's feelings into consideration and chose his words carefully, "It's just that a person who looks like Uzo showed up."

Akai Shuichi was silent for several seconds: "What did he do?"

James hesitated: "He..."

When Shuichi Akai looked at him, his heart sank and a scene of mass casualties emerged in his mind.

Then I heard James say: "He suddenly appeared, solved a case, gained a police fan boy... and then suddenly left again."

Akai Shuichi: "..."

Akai Shuichi: "Solve the case?"

James nodded heavily. "Our encirclement network didn't find out how he got in or left. Perhaps this was a prank with an ulterior motive. Before we knew what happened to you, we were always confused about his behavior, but now, I think I understand."

Akai Shuichi seemed to understand: "On one side is a vicious trap set up by all parties, and on the other side is the goal we are chasing... He is using this method to warn me that only by obeying the drama he arranged can I see more of the truth?"

He suddenly caught another key point: "Jiang Xia should have been present yesterday, why was Wu Zuo the one solving the case?"

This cunning and shameless guy wouldn't rely on the script he has and use reading the script to speed up Jiang Xia's case-solving speed.

James recalled what he heard from Judy: "Jiang Xia caught a cold yesterday, and was dragged out by Judy to get caught in the rain. He also ate the spicy curry dinner provided by the owner. His voice became hoarse after eating, and he took a nap afterwards, so that person took advantage of him."

Shuichi Akai: "Judy has become part of the team that destroyed Jiang Xia's state... Uzo's manipulation of people's hearts is really perfect. We must be careful - in the next few days, you should pay more attention to the colleagues who participated in the siege. If anyone shows abnormal behavior, such as irritability, or conflicts with others, you must eliminate the hidden dangers immediately."

James nodded seriously: "I understand."

He racked his brains but couldn't figure out how Wuzo could control others so accurately, and his observations over the past few days had yielded no results. To him, this was simply a magical skill.

The only thing that comforted James before was that they were a group of foreigners who had just arrived in Tokyo. The FBI's thinking pattern was very different from the Tokyo people that Uzo was familiar with.

He thought this would cause great difficulties for Uzo, and that their team was indestructible in front of that guy... but after just a few encounters, Judy, who was quite capable among them, was about to become a puppet of the opponent, and she herself knew nothing about it.

As he thought about it, James sighed: the advantage he thought he had was collapsing rapidly, and it seemed that he had to think of some new defensive methods.

Next to him, Shuichi Akai finally came back to his senses from the new messages. He took out the mobile phone he had just retrieved from the police and began to look through it.
