Chapter 109 [Two-Front Warfare]

The brutal shooting of an important Allied political figure did shock Japan's top managers.

It is impossible to see the specific appearance of the interior of the Prime Minister's Residence from the outside, but just by looking at the cars coming and going and the shadowy figures near the windows inside the building, one can feel that the entire building is filled with a panic atmosphere.

"The target left the National Diet Building. It was a white Toyota Alphard with the license plate number... Also, someone was shooting at me." Hanamiju had clearly been staying in the Imperial Palace, and no one knew what connections she had used, but she actually knew the target's movements earlier than the people who had been keeping an eye on him.

Therefore, Gin did not delve into why she did not report the movements of the Prime Minister's residence, but continued to observe the vehicles leaving the Parliament Building with a telescope.

Although Hanamisake gave a clear model and license plate number, the country's strong herd mentality means that senior officials often use similar models of the same brand.

Of the ten cars leaving the National Assembly Hall at this moment, seven or eight were Toyotas, with a few Mazdas. Of these Toyotas, a good half were Alphards and the similar Alphard, Vellfires. Judging solely by their exterior, the only difference between them was the shape of the front vents.

This means that to find the target license plate number from a bunch of Alphards and similar Vellfires, not only does it take some time and energy, but you also have to keep an eye on the movements of the vehicle.

Otherwise, you might accidentally kill an unimportant person. Killing the wrong person is a small matter, but if that person is an important figure supported by the organization, it would be a big loss.

Even Gin, the leader of the action team, could not tolerate a mistake of this magnitude.

Another thing that concerned Gin was that Hanamizuki had reported that she had been shot. According to the trajectory of the bullet, the attacker was not far away from them.

Hanamizuki had been under constant surveillance since becoming a member, and Gin hadn't seen anything about her movements that could lead to assassination. Furthermore, Sayuri had appeared on the streets of Tokyo hundreds, if not thousands, of times. Why was she targeted only at the Imperial Palace?

This is one of the most heavily guarded areas in Japan.

"Change the sniper point." He gave a decisive order, asking several snipers to leave their current positions.

No matter who is targeting Agatsuma Sayuri - or Hanamisake, they will first avoid the attack and complete the mission.

Everything is mission-oriented.

According to Hanamisake and Bourbon's prior research, the target would relax in a park after completing work, then enjoy a few drinks and snacks with his subordinates nearby. He would then return home at the "appropriate" time to have dinner with his wife and daughter.

The park I visit is different every time, and I would even drive dozens of kilometers just to change my mood.

Compared with the extravagant lifestyle of many politicians, this person's hobbies can be said to be very simple.

Although the destination seems random, some patterns can still be summarized.

If working until dark, the target will usually choose from three parks within a three-kilometer radius, tending to choose the one closest to home.

If work is stressful but the target gets off work early, they will go to a few parks with fishing spots. Although the target does not fish himself, he enjoys watching others fish.

The driver he met was named "Honda" - the target had three full-time drivers, and if he had plenty of time, no matter where he would go next, he would definitely go to Hibiya Park first.

In the park, the target must first pass by the Grand Concert Hall and the Grand Fountain, stay at the library for 40 minutes, and then leave.

Honda drivers themselves said that if natural disasters or man-made disasters occur, they will naturally change their itineraries. But for some reason, every time he drives, things are always relatively smooth, and there has never been a need to change the itinerary.

Today was the day the Honda driver was driving, which was one of the reasons why the organization chose this day to act. Their alternative plan was to kill the target in Hibiya Park.

The park has a wide field of view, allowing you to not only shoot targets with sniper rifles, but also to assassinate them at close range.

This plan is called Plan B simply because the target will only go to Hibiya Park after get off work, and the organization plans to take action during the target's working hours.

"Hanami Sake, go to Hibiya Park and provide the action team with on-site information."

My wife Sayuri protested loudly, "I'm still being shot at here! There's no way I can leave the bunker."

"Chianti, Cohen, provide cover for Hanamisake. Ireland, go meet the guy who dared to attack the members of the organization."

Gin gave a series of orders, then glanced at Scotland. The snipers were each at their respective positions, and Gin, though he didn't have to stay at his sniper position, was now sharing one with Scotland, whether intentionally or not.

He released his hand from the earphone and spoke directly into Scotland's ear: "Scotland, you also act with Ireland."

He sneered coldly and clapped his hand on Scotland's shoulder. "Protect Hanamisake, who loves you the most. Do you know what it means to let the organization suffer losses?"

Scotland said nothing, put away the sniper rifle parts, put on his bass bag and headed towards the direction Hanamizuki guessed.

If you are a professional sniper, you will move your position as soon as possible after firing a shot and will never stay in the same place for too long.

Several minutes have passed since Hanamizu reported the attack. Before, Gin seemed to have not taken the accidental shooting seriously, but now he has mobilized so many people to encircle and suppress the attack.

Everyone knows that a delay of just a few minutes means the probability of catching the criminal is greatly reduced. In this situation with Gin, it is hard not to think that he is deliberately letting the murderer go.

I had guessed before that Hanamizu's background as a high-level member of the organization would be a demerit for Gin, but I didn't expect that he would go so far as to ruin his reputation for a high completion rate of tasks in order to trip her up.

[Could it be that the sniper who shot Hanamisake is also from the organization? ]

Being able to arrange a sniper position so close to them and knowing that Hanamisake would go to the Imperial Palace could only be done by Gin, who arranged for Hanamisake to act alone.

Although he knew that Hanamisake in the Imperial Palace was the clone of my wife Sayuri, Morofushi Kagemitsu was still anxious because he knew that the killing of the clone meant a shock to the original's spirit.

The thought of the girl bearing the memory of her death filled his chest with a tightness. This wasn't the feeling of slowing his breathing to an extreme for stability; it was part of a series of physical reactions triggered by the trauma he'd suffered in his childhood.

Deprived of physical sensation, only the worst thoughts remained, replaying in my mind over and over again. Each frame slowly and meticulously depicted the image of death.

He is a sniper, a weapon that can take someone's life at any time while working undercover.

I thought he had forgotten the tragedy at that time, and that the arrest of the murderer would comfort his parents' souls in heaven, but I didn't expect it to happen again today.

He could only walk faster and faster.

If the murderer can be caught here, then Agatsuma Sayuri's clone will not suffer any more harm.

He was almost in a state of rushing forward headfirst when someone grabbed his left forearm. The person was not heavy, so even though he grabbed Zhu Fu Jingguang's hand with force, it did not directly dissipate the latter's momentum. Instead, he staggered and bumped into Zhu Fu Jingguang.

Feeling the soft and warm human body, Morobushi Kagemitsu immediately realized that it was my wife Sayuri. The girl who appeared near him was probably the girl's true self.

He gave a slight tug on his left hand, and the girl was drawn into his arms like a fish taking a bite of a hook.

"Why are you here? It's too dangerous. Others might see us."

That's what he said, but when Morufushi Kagemitsu looked down, he found that the person in front of him was wearing a baseball cap, a loose T-shirt and overalls that were easy to move in. He didn't know whether she had no makeup on her face or had makeup on that Morufushi Kagemitsu couldn't see, which made my wife Sayuri look completely different from her usual appearance.

The girl giggled, and she seemed to have a bit of the charm of my wife Sayuri. She said softly to Zhufu Jingguang, "I was afraid you were worried, so I came to check you out."

Zhu Fujingguang sighed helplessly. If it were the case in the past, he should have warned her, saying something like, "It's too dangerous" or "Be careful", but this time he didn't want to blame the girl.

"It's definitely a relief," he said.

But he looked worried, and it felt like he was relieved but not completely relieved.

"As long as you are safe, I am safe." The girl glanced at the door that Scotland was going downstairs and gently pushed the man's chest.

She slowly backed away, raised her thumbs as a "good" gesture, and quickly retreated before more codename members of the organization noticed this, disappearing in the constantly flowing crowd.

"Hurry up, Scotland."

It was Ireland who came from afar, and he probably didn't expect that there would be a sniper operating with him.

According to the tactical assignment, he should have confronted the enemy head-on, and there was no other suitable sniping location nearby. Did Scotland have to snipe the enemy at a distance of no more than 100 meters?

If the enemy did not set up their guns on the rooftop or was already on the way out, it would probably turn into a close combat encounter, which would not be conducive to the sniper's performance.

No matter how hard I try, I can't understand the purpose of Gin's order.

I don't know if it was because Ireland had seen Scotland too many times, or if Scotland had already sensed his doubts, but during the operation, Scotland broke his taciturn image in the organization - in fact, this image had already been shattered when he confronted Rye and Bourbon over the matter of my wife Sayuri.

He observed Ireland's reaction out of the corner of his eye and said, "That's an intelligence officer. Be careful when you go up there. They might be alert."

Ireland's face darkened, and he stopped thinking about the gossip about Scotland, Hanamisake, and a certain intelligence officer, and focused his attention on the mysterious sniper he was going to deal with.

"How much do you know about this guy?"

"He fired several shots at Hanamisake. His sniping skills weren't very good at all."

But they were not going up to test the opponent's sniping ability. As soon as Ireland entered the building, he took out his pistol and loaded it. If he really met the opponent face to face, he would at least send a burst of bullets to the opponent.

The two of them took the elevator to the top floor as naturally as ordinary visitors. At this time, Zhu Fu Jingguang controlled the remote control device that had been set up in advance to shut down the power of the entire building, including the elevator.

"stairs?"

"Rye and Bourbon are watching."

As long as the criminal does not leave within a few minutes after Gin releases the water, he will be unable to escape.
