Chapter 56 Chapter 56 Scotland is a traitor
During the few days in Yokohama, he bargained with the Central Plains cadres as soon as he opened his eyes, and he still bargained as soon as he closed his eyes. He talked so much that his lips were almost on fire. Finally, after much persuasion, An You got the price he wanted most.
Five hundred million yen.
The price was cut in half, and even my grandma would come and praise him for being so great.
An You quickly called Gin and the call went through.
An You: "We've dispatched personnel to assist with transportation. We've finalized the cargo deal in Yokohama."
There was silence for a moment. "What?"
An You: "It was Zhu Xingda's mission. I participated in Zhu Xingda's mission."
Gin: "Muroboshi, what do you want to say?"
An You: "I'm pretty good, right?"
The person on the phone was silent for a moment. Gin's voice was filled with contempt. "It was just a failed mission. What's there to be proud of?"
An You: "Okay, I have nothing to say to you. Remember to send someone to transport it."
Gin: "Figure it out yourself."
An You: "Hey, I'm working so diligently, and I can't even ask you for help?"
Gin: "This isn't my codename mission."
An You was really out of ideas, so he had to contact Rum again and send more people to help escort them back.
The three of them are also preparing to return to Tokyo.
At a Tokyo street corner, Moroboshi Dai's car stopped at a fork in the road. "Where are you going? I'll take you there."
Before Anyou could speak, Scotland spoke up, "Let's go to my safe house first."
Zhu Xingda glanced at him and drove to his residence. Just as An You was watching Scotland get out of the car, the door on the other side was opened. A pair of hands suddenly attacked An You, pulled him out of the car, and he stumbled into Scotland's arms.
Scotland said loudly to Moroboshi, "Thank you for taking us. He and I have reached our destination. We will be leaving now."
An You: "Hey, wait." His destination is not his home in Scotland.
Before he could refuse, Scotland's gentle and powerful arms suppressed his twisting body and almost half-forcefully brought him back.
Returning to the familiar safe house, An You looked around and found that the room next door had remained the same as when he left, and his desk lamp was placed exactly the same as when he left.
"Why hasn't your safe house been moved?"
Scotland chuckled, "Because I've been waiting for you, waiting for you to come back and live here. This has always been your second home."
His tone was gentle and his expression was focused when he looked at him. An You immediately softened her guard and felt that there was no need to make things difficult for Scotland. Apart from establishing a romantic relationship, he was still her favorite friend after all.
He couldn't do the same as breaking up with his good friend.
"I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye. I was too willful at the time and left abruptly without explaining it to you clearly. You've been worrying about me the whole time."
Scotland's eyes were gentle and deep, "No, you don't need to apologize to me. I didn't notice your feelings. I approached you even though I knew you didn't like the same sex."
Bringing up this topic again was inevitably awkward. An You did not respond. She picked up the tea from the table and took a big gulp to ease the awkwardness.
Scotland's eyes were gentle and soft, and he kept staring at An You. After a long time, An You couldn't help but feel her face blushing and her heart beating fast.
Unexpectedly, Scotland moved closer to him, touching his face with his palms, cupping his chin, and gently asked, "Are you okay? Your face is so red, I was a little worried."
An You grabbed his sleeve, a little dazed, "I'm fine, Scotland, you just said that you won't have any other thoughts about me, right?"
Scotland's eyes were dark, "Not anymore."
An You chose to believe in his kind and gentle Scotland.
"So you're willing to come back?"
An You nodded, "Sure, sure. Now that I'm back, you must not kiss me secretly at night."
Scotland: “No.”
An You: "Then swear."
Scotland: "I swear."
Scotland came closer again, "Stay at my house tonight."
An You: "That's fine."
Scotland touched his face lightly, "I know, you're absolutely safe in my house, don't worry."
"By the way, winter is coming soon. Do you mind going on vacation with me to a hot spring hotel?"
An You: "This isn't very good."
Scotland: "I can teach you advanced sniper rifle skills."
An You nodded quickly: "Sure, sure."
The phone rang, Scotland received a call. His expression was serious. After he put down the phone number, he said with guilt, "I'm sorry, I just received a call from the organization. I have to go on a business trip for a while. I guess I can't accompany you to the hot spring hotel for the time being. Wait for me for a while. I will definitely go with you when I come back."
An You: "Since it's a mission, then go ahead and don't worry about me."
However, before he could get any news from Scotland, he heard a brand new piece of bad news. A text message came to his mobile phone from Zhu Xingda. The message was very simple, telling him that.
[The undercover agent in Scotland has been exposed.]
An You immediately sat up from the sofa, and before he could even say "I'm going", he didn't know what to feel for a moment. He was wondering about Scotland's betrayal of the organization and himself, and about Scotland choosing to face the organization's members alone even though he knew that they would definitely help him.
Where are you now?
【On the rooftop of the organization. 】
【Wait for me, I'll be there soon. 】
The distance to the organization was neither too far nor too close. When I went there, I felt for the first time how cold the air was and how long the distance was.
An You took a taxi to the organization. This was the first time he felt panicked and helpless. Time passed so quickly. During this period, An You kept calling Scotland, but the call was always unanswered. It was not until he redialed several times that the call was finally connected.
"Hello."
When An You first heard Scotland's voice, she was still a little dazed. His voice was dry and a little panicked. "Scotland, are you okay? I'm coming."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time. An You waited for a long time before hearing a reply, "My identity has been discovered. I'm sorry. Take care of yourself."
"Hello? Scotland, what's wrong?"
An You's voice revealed panic, and for some reason, Scotland's voice revealed a strong sense of foreboding.
An You also felt extremely uneasy. He clutched the phone tightly and said nervously, "Scotland, don't joke with me. I asked you how you are. You must not have any accidents."
Scotland didn't reply, but the silence pierced the void, like the clearest signal.
An You's heart sank suddenly, and then a gunshot rang out.
The gunshot came from the other end of the phone. Something unexpected happened in Scotland, but unfortunately he was unaware of it and couldn't change anything.
An You ran towards the stairs and saw another familiar figure. Bourbon was also there. Before he could stop, Bourbon grabbed his shoulder and asked, "Why are you here?"
An You replied in a panic: "I came to find Scotland. His identity has been discovered."
Bourbon: "I understand. Stay away from me. This matter has nothing to do with you."
An You: "No, I still have to go find him. He must be in danger now."
"Then we will split up."
An You couldn't get through to Scotland, so she had to call Zhu Xingda, "Is Scotland still with you?"
"He's still here. He won't listen to anything I say now. Come on."
The phone was handed over. An You felt the other party's particularly light breathing and confirmed that it was Scotland on the other end. An You said, "Scotland, don't do anything stupid. I will take you away from the organization and hide you."
"But hiding it won't solve the problem."
An You: "There is no problem that needs to be solved. All you need to do is wait for me."
Scotland: "I know you're thinking about me, but once I accept your help, you'll be in danger."
An You: "No, I won't be killed, don't worry."
I ran up the stairs to the rooftop, complaining, "You, oh, are you on this staircase? Why does it take so long? I can't take it anymore. I can't breathe. If you are, just tell me and don't torture me by running up and down without saying a word."
Scotland: "...It's here."
As expected, they saw Scotland standing on the rooftop with a gun. An You almost flew over and held his hand. "What are you going to do, Scotland? Even if your undercover operation was discovered, you don't have to give up on yourself. Besides, I can still help you."
Scotland: "It's too dangerous. I don't want to get you involved, and I don't want you to get into trouble for helping me."
An You sighed, "My situation isn't that difficult. Besides, considering our relationship, if you ask me for help, I definitely won't refuse you."
Scotland's expression was a little complicated. Zhu Xingdai didn't want to get involved in the subsequent events and had left when he arrived.
An You grabbed Scotland's arm and said, "Come with me. I'll take you away from here before the organization finds you. Otherwise, you'll be hunted down even if you go to the ends of the earth."
Scotland was still a little worried, "Aren't you afraid of taking a risk with me like this?"
An You was stunned for a moment. "That won't happen. At worst, I can just hide my identity and move away. After all, moving a tree to a dead tree can bring life to a person. I'm going to send you to the countryside of Kyoto to hide for a while."
The fact that Scotland was a traitor was discovered by Gin the next day. An You couldn't help but sigh that this big brother's intelligence methods were really powerful and he discovered things faster than ordinary people.
Before he could lead Scotland to leave Tokyo, he received a call from Gin.
"You know that Scotland is undercover."
An You was surprised, "Scottish undercover, when did this happen?"
Gin's voice was cold, "You won't be shielding him anymore."
An You: "How is that possible? The undercover agent must hate me to death. If I help them, I might as well take me hostage. I'm not that stupid."
Gin: "Huh, you have some brains."
An You: "Hey, why are you making personal attacks? That's too much."
Gin ignored him and hung up the phone.
Taking advantage of this gap, An You drove to Kyoto overnight and rented a place for him to live. Then An You rushed back to Tokyo. Unexpectedly, as soon as he returned to the door of his villa, he found a gun aimed at his head.
The reason he was sure he was being targeted was because he had been learning sniping for a while, initially with Scotland and later with Dai Moroboshi. Under the instruction of these two steady and reliable snipers, he had become aware of the dangers of guns. As a result, when he saw Bo and Leta standing not far away, held by Gin, he immediately raised his hand and said, "Brother, why are you so sudden? I haven't done anything bad."
Gin pressed on, "Where have you been?"
An You: "I didn't go anywhere. I just went out for a walk."
Gin: "Do you know about Scotland's betrayal?"
