Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Organization Members Visit
In the spring when flowers are blooming, An You is enjoying the beautiful scenery in the garden and the warm breeze.
I was holding a book in my hand, the title of which was "A Collection of Jokes", and reading it with great interest. I had found the book in the study.
An You was lying on the steps of the garden, holding up her head and laughing loudly, not caring whether her clothes were clean or dirty.
Just as he was in a daze, a male voice came, "Master, Master, are you basking in the sun here?"
A man in a black suit and black leather shoes came over, pushing a small food cart.
From a distance, the sweet aroma of cake wafted from the car, but An You's mind was completely on the book in her hands.
He couldn't help but be attracted, and he casually asked, "Sebastian-chan, what are you doing here?"
The butler argued quietly, "Uh, my name is not Sebastian-chan, Master."
An You also responded in a low voice, "I know, I was just kidding you."
The housekeeper sighed, "By the way, Master, did I disturb your reading?"
"It's okay, actually I didn't read anything." An You said, supporting his head.
"Well, Master, why don't you try my newly baked shortbread and Ceylon black tea. They have a unique flavor, and you're sure to like them."
The housekeeper gave him a large plate of crispy cakes. An You looked at them again and again and decided to eat them while reading.
"Thank you, you're very thoughtful. Leave it there."
The butler did as he was told, placed the tray next to him, and turned to leave the garden.
On one side was a novel, and on the other side was a pastry brought by the butler. An You ate happily.
The atmosphere was harmonious and not even the sound of car engines could be heard.
And six hours ago, Bourbon, a member of the organization, received a new task from the organization.
This was not the task he had just completed when he joined the organization, but it was the one that required the most attention.
Unlike those intelligence gathering missions, the objective of this mission is very simple, but its simplicity is a little suspicious.
The mission was given to him by Vermouth.
Vermouth lit a ladies' cigarette and smiled mysteriously amidst the smoke.
— Let's go and welcome a newcomer. He's the target of an important mission for the organization, the boss's lost grandson. He had been studying and living abroad, and now he's been found.
You guys should be careful and protect his personal safety. Maybe he will become the youngest powerful person in the organization.
The man was mysterious and young. He gave him a simple hand-drawn map and roughly marked the directions on the map.
This location cannot be found on the Tokyo map. After giving him the map, Vermouth asked him to search for clues and find the place himself, saying that it was to test his intelligence gathering skills.
It is unclear whether they are trying to test his strength or taking the opportunity to test his background. The organization still does not trust him very much.
Bourbon sneered and took on the task.
The map is equivalent to a small puzzle game that can be solved with just a little time.
After finding the approximate location, which was on the side of a mountain in the suburbs, Bourbon consulted a real estate agent near the suburbs and learned that there was a villa in the mountains.
I guess that's where the boss lives recently. However, the address that the members know about means he won't live there for long, so it's probably a temporary residence.
Given the boss's mysterious attitude, he still doesn't know the other person's appearance and personality. This time, he may have a chance to find out.
This was not a solo operation. There was another person going with him, who was also a member of the organization, but he had never met him before. After all, their tasks did not overlap and they rarely met.
In the designated parking lot, Bourbon drove his car and met another mission member. When they saw each other in the car, there was uncontrollable shock in their eyes.
The man asked seriously, "Nice to meet you. I'm Scotland from the sniper team. What's you?"
Bourbon felt his throat go dry for a moment, "Hello, I'm Intelligence member Bourbon."
The cat-eyed young man said seriously, "It's an honor to work with you, sir."
Bourbon was silent, overwhelmed by the brief shock.
It turned out to be him.
It turned out to be his good friend Zhu Fu Jingguang, who had been secretly arranged to be an undercover agent since graduation in order to prevent his identity from being revealed.
He had severed his connection with the bright world, so he had no idea what his friend's profession was.
In his impression, his friend should become a righteous policeman.
At least they should be active in schools, shopping malls, near subway stations, and close to life.
Instead of being an undercover agent that no one cares about like me.
Covered with a rotten skin, he lives a cold life of self-disguise and anonymity.
So when he saw him in the car, a hint of shock flashed in Bourbon's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. This was not the time to reminisce.
There are listening devices hidden somewhere in the car, even in their phones, and on their bodies.
To be on the safe side, the two pretended to be strangers, neither greeting nor chatting.
The car drove onto an uninhabited mountain road, and the signal should have been interrupted.
Bourbon carefully checked the car, found a listening device in the rear, and threw it off the cliff.
After a long silence, the other person, the young man with blue cat eyes, checked his phone signal and found it was completely gone. He then asked, "Do you know the target of this special mission?"
Bourbon, who was driving without distraction, asked, "What?"
Scotland: "The prince of the organization, I heard that the boss's long-lost grandson has returned."
Bourbon: "Yes, I heard from Vermouth that he is a mysterious man."
Scotland: "If it's the heir, he should be protected by someone trustworthy. After all, the organization's future is at stake. At the very least, more experienced members should be sent to pick him up. However, the organization only sent two of us newcomers. They even publicly exposed the other party's identity, as if they weren't worried at all. They thought they could eliminate the heir with even the slightest mishap."
Bourbon pondered for a long time and concluded, "Perhaps this is exactly what the boss is secretly hoping for. If something unexpected happens, at most he'll be sad for a while, but a young heir will disappear, and he'll feel somewhat relieved. Without a competitor, he can rest easy."
Scotland frowned. "You mean, he's a tool of the powers that be, with life and death at his disposal? That sounds cruel."
Bourbon said coldly, "...This is how power transitions work. The older a person gets, the more they fear losing power and benefits. When it comes to gaining benefits, even family members will be calculated. True family affection itself is a joke."
Scotland sighed. Those who live in the light can't look directly at the darkness for long. Even if they know it has nothing to do with them, they still can't help but lose their voice. The cruel reality, the truth that makes it impossible to face it directly.
He didn't know how the heir would survive in the organization in the future. It would be like a slow death, watching others wither away.
After a moment of silence, the car finally arrived at a magnificent villa area after turning many corners.
Here, the mountains are green and the waters are clear, the grass and trees are lush and green.
Because you are surrounded by nature, the air is fresh and everything is so unique.
Scotland admired the mountain scenery for a while and then stepped into the silent mansion.
Walking in along the rockery with winding water and passing by the fountain square, you will be greeted by the sight of more luxuriant flowers and plants.
The building has white walls and a corridor lined with green wisteria flowers.
This is a huge garden, and the faint fragrance of roses fills the nose.
A clear laugh reached their ears, Scotland and Bourbon looked at each other, and there were other people in the garden.
The two slowly approached a circular flower bed where a figure was lying on its side.
His slender figure was exposed to the air, and the laughter came from him.
An You was lying there when she felt uncomfortable all over. She turned over and happened to meet the figure behind the garden.
An You was sipping his black tea when he saw two people at the intersection of the garden peeking at him furtively. So he was really being spied on!
An You sat up suddenly, "Who's outside?"
The blond young man and the black-haired young man with cat eyes stepped forward and stood not far away. "We are members of the organization. Sorry for not coming here so late."
The blond young man has childish facial features, his gray-purple eyes reveal his emotions, and his skin is dark brown. Generally, dark skin color easily reminds people of Africans.
Most players definitely don’t like the dark-skinned young man, but with his face and serious attitude, there is an inexplicable tension in the scene.
His body lines are ridiculously good, and an ordinary white shirt adds a lot of masculine charm to him.
The cat-eyed young man has slightly handsome features, bright eyes, a smile on his face, and a calm demeanor, giving people a sense of static beauty.
At first glance, the two people look a little familiar. Aren’t these the portraits I saw when I first entered the game?
Two of them are exactly the same as the two people we see now.
The painting style is consistent with the modeling. This time the modeler is riding on the painter's head.
An You admired the two handsome guys for a while. Not bad, not bad, really pleasing to the eyes.
But he is still not as handsome as me.
He remembered what the old man had promised him a few days ago, saying that he could go to Tokyo, but he would send members of the organization to receive him.
Considering his life safety, he didn't expect the organization to be so efficient and arrive at the villa so quickly.
"You guys are here to pick me up, right? You came so quickly."
Bourbon and Scotland took a moment to glance at each other and adjust their surprised expressions. They didn't expect the heir to be so young.
He looks to be in his early twenties, not even necessarily more mature than them.
Scotland replied, "Yes, we are here to pick up the young master. Is it convenient for you to go back with us now?"
An You touched his chin and said, "Now, maybe we need to wait for a while. Let me pack my luggage."
Scotland nodded, "So you have luggage. Do you need our help then?"
An You walked in front and led the way. "Sure, come into the villa and help me move some things."
He didn't see that the two people behind him looked at each other and knew what was going on.
This may be their closest chance to see the boss's true face.
But often the closer you are to the truth, the more cautious you need to be.
When An You came, he only brought a set of white clothes and entered the game empty-handed. However, with the help of the housekeeper, he now has quite a few black suits.
Moreover, Karasuma Renya said that this is his home and told him not to be polite.
He actually didn't intend to be polite. Even if the other party didn't say so, he would still take a part of the harvest before leaving. After all, no player could tolerate entering a scene without looting. The open world game was all about exploration and collection.
An You led the two servants into his room and inspected it. "Help me take this bed away."
Bourbon raised his eyelids, feeling a sense of foreboding: "What do you want this for?"
"Take it back and sleep."
"The accommodation provided by the organization has beds." Bourbon reminded coldly.
An You nodded, "I know, but I slept in this bed first, so I have to be responsible for it. I will take it with me wherever I go."
"Don't worry, you won't be accustomed to the bed."
An You asked in surprise, "How do you know I won't be single?"
Bourbon calmly analyzed, "Your statement is not valid. If you recognize your bed, you should recognize the bed you used before coming to Tokyo, rather than becoming dependent on the bed in the villa in a short period of time."
An You thought what he said made sense. "Okay, I think you're convinced. It's just a slight case of being bed-shy, but he's quite good at adapting to new environments. I also like the style of this sofa. It's 2.2 meters long and 1 meter wide, and it feels very soft. Let's take this furniture with us."
Bourbon quickly processed the information he had said in his mind and looked at the other person's hopeful eyes, but he still wanted to say one important thing, "There's no room in the car."
"……ah?"
An You: "Is the car you drive small?"
Bourbon: "I'm sorry, not the truck."
An You: "What about this piano?"
“I can’t let it go.”
"table……"
“It is not recommended.”
"Okay, then I'll pack my clothes and take them away."
An You sighed, saying that you are not allowed to bring this or that.
He didn't know what else to take with him, otherwise he would have to leave alone.
Seeing that Anyou was already immersed in the fun of cleaning up, Scotland asked gently, "By the way, where is the bathroom here?"
An You didn't even turn around: "Oh, turn right at the end of the corridor, it's the one outside."
