Chapter 31
Shigeto Tsujimoto eventually fell into a deep sleep.
Morofushi Kagemitsu originally thought that Tsujimoto Shigeto would collapse after learning about Tsujimoto Yuuma's situation, but his attitude was calmer than expected.
Facing the gazes of Furuya Gawahito and Morobushi Kagemitsu, the silver-haired man's eyes dimmed a little, like a lamp that had been extinguished.
But when he raised his head again, his voice returned to its usual calmness.
"I understand. I will rest well. Don't worry about me. You should go and rest soon too."
"Sheren-kun..."
But the more peaceful it is, the more uneasy it makes people feel.
Can he really let go completely? Can he really accept what happened to his brother?
How is that possible?
The two of them watched in silence as Shigeto Tsujimoto lay down quietly again, covered himself with the quilt and fell asleep.
For a moment, they seemed to be able to feel Tsujimoto's pain, but as always, Tsujimoto kept these emotions hidden in his heart.
It was obvious that he didn't want to cause them any trouble.
"Let's go." Furuya Kawai patted Morobushi Kagemitsu's shoulder.
"You haven't had a good rest for a long time. Go to bed early at night."
"Um……"
Morofushi Kagemitsu took one last look back and quickly followed Furuya Kawayu Jin out of the room.
If Shigeto Tsujimoto could express his emotions more clearly, or even scold him, he might feel better.
But the more tolerant he was, the more sad he felt.
Yuma Tsujimoto and Shigeto Tsujimoto are clearly people with two different personalities.
Shigetsu Tsujimoto is always very direct, and always calms down before anyone else. Yuma Tsujimoto is willful and self-centered, and never hides his emotions unless he needs to pretend, which makes Morofushi Kagemitsu feel closer to him.
At least Yuma Tsujimoto's spirit was indeed connected to him for a period of time.
He could feel the pain in Yuma Tsujimoto's heart, and could also feel the fatigue and compromise that he occasionally showed. There were several times when he was about to step on the other party's bottom line, but Yuma Tsujimoto still tolerated him.
If he could have discovered the other party's undercover identity earlier, perhaps he would have been gentler towards him.
A flash of regret flashed across Morofu Jingguang's eyes.
But there's no going back.
Without him by her side, what will Yuma Tsujimoto do next?
·
At this moment, inside the Black Organization.
"I think you need some explanation, Grenc."
Gin looked down at the yawning man with an extremely unpleasant expression.
"Why did Shigeto Tsujimoto run away?"
A huge loophole appeared within the Black Organization, or more specifically, a traitor appeared.
The experimental subject that was originally prepared suddenly disappeared overnight. According to what others said, they didn't know what happened. The surveillance seemed to be fine, and no one knew how Shigeto Tsujimoto escaped.
The only direct connection was the Grenz wine, but the other party remained calm and showed no intention of explaining.
"What are you talking about? Does this have anything to do with me?" Yuma Tsujimoto crossed her arms.
"Don't accuse others, Gin. After all, you are the one who has the closest relationship with Tsujimoto Furuto, right?"
"I was out on a mission that day, how could it be me?" Gin narrowed his eyes.
"Really? I was not feeling well that day and was resting. How could it be me?" Yuma Tsujimoto shrugged.
"You think I can't see it? Destroying the evidence will put you at ease and keep away from suspicion?" Gin sneered.
"Who else but you could hack into the organization's system and take away Tsujimoto Shigetsu by pretending to be me?"
"Why can't I say that someone created this illusion deliberately to frame me? Gin, can you at least produce evidence if you suspect someone? Isn't it too ridiculous to use your sensitive nose, which is useless and even misses countless undercover agents, to judge right and wrong?" Tsujimoto Yuma mocked mercilessly.
"That's enough."
Rum's voice rang out from the darkness, and it was obvious that he was getting impatient.
"It's fine if the subject has already escaped, but in this case, I can be sure that there is an undercover agent inside the Black Organization."
"Grenz, although I don't really want to doubt you, you are indeed the most suspicious."
"I know."
Yuma Tsujimoto stood quietly on the side and accepted the other party's statement.
In fact, everyone knows the truth, but without any evidence, they really can't do anything to Yuma Tsujimoto.
"If we need to verify your identity, you will not refuse, Gruntz?" Rum asked.
"You talk as if I have the right to refuse." Tsujimoto Yuma sneered.
"Rum, what do you mean?" Gin was obviously unhappy.
"Grunz is a big suspect. I think that's pretty clear."
"That's right. Even if this incident has nothing to do with Grenz Wine, Tsujimoto Shigetsu's escape is also inseparable from Grenz Wine's negligence, right?" Bermode lifted her beautiful golden hair and smiled sweetly.
"Mr. Grenz, you are always so strict and never make mistakes, but how could you not even notice the escape of a person who was injected with anesthesia and was unconscious? This is very strange."
“…”
Yuma Tsujimoto remained silent.
Everyone in the room no longer trusted him, even though they had never trusted him in the first place.
But as a member of the Black Organization, once you lose everyone's trust, there is no need to say what the outcome will be.
Even Gin didn't shoot him directly, probably because of orders from above. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to see Gin alive.
"I need rest and recuperation. I don't think there's any problem with that. Besides, I'm in charge of all the organization's intelligence work during this period. Can you guarantee that you can detect a mouse escaping under such high-intensity work conditions?" Yuma Tsujimoto raised his eyebrows.
Everyone in the organization is well aware of the physical condition of Grenci wine.
After A injured him, Grenz's health deteriorated, and he almost disappeared for several days. Although doctors in the organization examined his health, they all said that he needed a long period of recuperation instead of high-intensity work.
The organization does not need people without value, Yuma Tsujimoto has always known this.
Therefore, he seldom allowed himself to take a holiday, and he could always maintain a high intensity of work even when he was sick.
"We really haven't taken good care of Grenz's health. How about we put the work aside and [rest for a while]?"
There seemed to be a voice coming from the darkness, and everyone looked at Yuma Tsujimoto, the look in their eyes was self-evident.
"This is a good suggestion." Gin was satisfied.
"Oh, poor little guy." Bermode shook his head.
"I agree with the boss's choice." Rum also gradually retreated into the darkness.
Countless shadows approached the corner and finally reached the edge of the cliff.
Yuma Tsujimoto pressed his back against the cold wall, looking coldly at the mocking looks coming from the people around him, without saying a word.
Do you think he has no use anymore? Do you want to use him as a test subject instead of Shigeto Tsujimoto? This is really a waste of resources.
She knew clearly that his health condition was extremely poor, but she still made such a choice...
So you are beginning to suspect him, right? But you don't have any solid evidence, so you want to force him this way.
"If Mr. Grenz has no grudges in his heart, he will not reject such a kind gesture, right?" Rum lowered his voice slightly.
"Or, what does Mr. Gruntz have to say about this?"
"no."
Any advice?
Since they were planning to push him into the abyss, there was no way for him to return.
A rough hand grabbed his collar, and with the force of pulling him forward, Yuma Tsujimoto was forced to stagger and follow the researcher towards the room.
The intelligence work was temporarily handed over to Bourbon, and he needed to take good care of his body.
However, from beginning to end, this young member of the organization did not show any resistance or fierce expression. He was like a volcano about to erupt, suppressing extremely unstable emotions.
"You are a bit similar to Shigeto Tsujimoto." Gin said suddenly.
"Really? If you're in doubt, maybe you can try a DNA test." Tsujimoto Yuma raised his eyes.
"You should trust the information you get from my body more than the information you get from my mouth, right?"
"You seem to be very self-aware."
Gin looked very happy as he looked at Grenci lying on the operating chair.
"I hope you won't cry out in pain later."
"Varied--"
Yuma Tsujimoto's pupils froze for a second, and his fingers suddenly curled up as the needle was inserted.
For most people, it is just the pain of a needle prick, but for him it is like a knife cutting his body.
Damn it…
"Just as I guessed, Grenci must have a sensitive constitution. I remember that his reaction to pain is more obvious than that of ordinary people." The doctor's voice sounded.
"Let me guess, have you ever been through that experiment?"
"What experiment?" Yuma Tsujimoto turned his head and frowned in pain.
"A group dedicated to cultivating geniuses. They will force the development of the brain through drugs, but this will also bring certain side effects." The doctor grabbed his arm and searched for the location of the blood vessels.
"The brains of those who undergo the experiment will be further developed. They will have stronger memory and analytical abilities than the average person, but their perception of pain will also increase tenfold."
"So, you are actually afraid of pain, right?"
…
Is he trying to find out his background? It seems that the boss has already started investigating him.
"It would be quicker if you just killed me." Yuma Tsujimoto showed an undisguised mocking smile and skipped the other party's question.
"Wouldn't it be more convenient to cut up the body data?"
"I dare not damage such a precious experimental subject casually." The doctor also smiled. He gently stroked the man's cheek, but his tone was chilling.
"But don't worry, we won't treat you like we treated Tsujimoto Shigetsu. You are too fragile, as if you were made of glass. You will be crushed if you use a little force, so we will be very careful during the research process."
"Until then, let's just have a good time here."
The tube of medicine was placed not far from him, and the red liquid in the transparent tube was inexplicably eye-catching.
·
The next morning, in the hospital.
Even after all he's been through, Tsujimoto's biological clock remains remarkably accurate.
He lay quietly in the quilt, feeling the complete silence of the world, while seeing the bullet screen rolling before his eyes.
[I was stabbed silly.]
[Ahhhhhhhhhhh…I am also stupid, I am completely stupid. ]
[I just want to cry now, help me... At the end, Yuma stayed in the darkness, watching them disappear little by little at the door, and my tears fell directly...]
[He gave his hope of survival to his brother and Hiro, help... I'm dead, I'm dead, damn, I was cut into pieces by the knife.]
[So Yuma is on the red side no matter how you look at it! In fact, both brothers are on the red side!! Why don’t you want to tell your brother? ! Don’t you know that he is really worried about you? ! ]
[Both the elder brother and the younger brother are idiots! Idiots!! You always think about each other and end up hurting yourselves!! Can’t you take care of yourselves a little more, you bastard brothers!!]
[It's too difficult to deal with someone who keeps silent. After thinking about it, I think Hiro is the most reliable. ]
[So, apart from Shigetsu, Yuma only showed his vulnerable and true side to Hiro, but he let Hiro go...]
[Does Yuma want to face the Black Organization alone? ? It's impossible for the organization not to notice if he just takes such a big person away! ! ]
[I also think there is something wrong with Shibuto. Didn't you say before that Shibuto has lost his memory? Yuma has always been reluctant to let Shibuto know about the Black Organization. Is it because he doesn't want Shibuto to recall his bad memories? ]
【“Because you are the most important person to me, all I need to do is watch you being the center of attention.
If you leave, don't come back. It would be better if you could forget everything. This is not the place for you to stay.
It doesn’t matter what happens to me, because from the beginning to the end, the only person I care about is you, my brother.”】
[Wuwuwu... I can't breathe because of this. I want to look at the fanart posted by my brothers to relieve my stress! ! ]
[Yuuma! You need the sandwich of Shibuto and Hiro! I order you to come out and get the sandwich now!!]
[Hiro will be able to meet Zero, Shibuto will be able to meet Matsuda and Hagi again, but Yuuma, my Yuuma, he has nothing left...]
…
It's terrible.
It was terrible in every way.
From the moment he realized that something was wrong, Tsujimoto had a certain suspicion in his mind. He didn't believe it at first, but after verifying it step by step, he finally found that something was wrong.
Then the problem can only be attributed to the system.
Shigeto Tsujimoto grabbed the repaired hearing aid on the bedside table and put it back on. If he guessed correctly, the hearing aid that was originally broken by Gin should have been repaired by Yuma.
In this case, he should ask the system what is going on.
"System." Tsujimoto Shigetsu suddenly asked.
"explain."
A crystal blue panel appeared, and the mailbox slowly popped up. The gifted skill [Safe House] soon appeared in front of him.
If I remember correctly, this should be Yuma Tsujimoto's skill.
Yuma Tsujimoto is a very insecure person. He likes to hide himself in a dark and quiet corner. It seems that only in this way can he feel at ease.
To him, such skills are as important as life.
But he gave him the skill.
[I am here……]
The system customer service's voice became uneasy.
"What's going on with the Black side's progress bar? What's going on with the skill gift?" Shigetto Tsujimoto asked calmly.
"Also, what exactly did you and Yuma hide from me? I need your explanation."
[I…I…]
The system stuttered and even began to panic.
[I don’t know either!! I just realized that I was deceived! I’m just a new system, I really don’t know anything…]
"Cheated? Who?" Shigetsu Tsujimoto raised his eyebrows.
[We originally issued the mission according to the intelligence given by the higher-ups. It seems to be correct no matter how you look at it. I don’t know what went wrong…] The system sounded like it was about to cry.
[We immediately made corrections after we realized something was wrong. According to the original script, you should have taken the black script, and Yuma Tsujimoto was the red script!! But there was really no problem when we issued the mission!!]
"Oh." Still an emotionless reply.
[Well, I’m really sorry. We don’t know why this happened.] The system said embarrassedly.
[We have discussed this, and we will give you some compensation, but your mission still needs to continue, and this cannot be changed...]
"In other words, Yuma should actually be the red side, and I should be the black side, right?" Shigetsu Tsujimoto's voice remained calm.
But the calmer it got, the more terrifying Tsujimoto Shigeto became to the system.
[yes……]
"You did a great job. It's hard to forgive someone who was so careless."
[We can give you brothers double the compensation! !] The system said hurriedly,
[As compensation, I exchanged these for my own points accumulated as a system. You don’t need to spend even a single point!]
"Not enough." Shigetto Tsujimoto held his chin, his deep blue eyes as quiet as dead water.
"It's not enough. If Yuu Tsujimoto is really dead, then all this will be meaningless. Do you understand what I mean? System?"
[I……]
"He is different from me. Even if I were thrown into a blender, I wouldn't necessarily die, but Yuma would." Shigetto Tsujimoto tilted his head.
"I don't really want to be angry, but I'm almost at the edge of my emotions. Guess what I'm going to do when my emotions collapse?"
[Host, I was wrong, I was wrong, please don’t be angry!! You can ask me to do anything, wuwuwuwu!! Just make your request!! I will agree to anything!!!] The system almost knelt on the ground and cried.
Did he raise a host? He raised a master!
"That's easy. I need a tool that can store memories and restore lost memories under certain conditions. This should be easy for you, right?" said Shigetsu Tsujimoto.
[Huh? ? It's so simple! !] The system was stunned.
"Is it so simple? Then I'll think of a more complicated one..."
[Stop, wuwuwuwu. I was wrong, isn’t that enough? ! Host, feel free to ask for anything you want! I will satisfy anything that can be satisfied! !] The system cried.
"Not all requests can be made, right?" Shigetto Tsujimoto looked at him.
"If you are like the wish-making machine, at least Yuma will definitely not let go of this opportunity. I won't exploit you. Apart from the memory-related props, I just need you to tell me the truth."
"What happened when the mission was assigned? I have lost my memory and can't quite remember what happened then."
[You actually don’t remember it? !] The system was shocked.
[At that time, I remember that the situation seemed to be... your brother passed out for some reason, and you took over the mission in his place. According to the original judgment, it should be the black side of the suspect, Yuma, and the red side.]
"Did I take it?" Tsujimoto Shigetsu was stunned for a moment, "That shouldn't be the case. Why would I take the red side and throw the black side mission to Yuma?"
[I, I don’t know either!!] The system is really about to cry,
[The first landing place was when you were in your 20s. The first time was in an orphanage, but you were too young at that time, so it was difficult to assign a camp or something like that...]
"I see. So I took on the mission when I was in the police academy. Yuma happened to be by my side when I took on the mission. I chose the red route and took on the black route for Yuma?" Shigetto Tsujimoto understood.
"At that time, I looked almost exactly like Yuma, right? How did you tell the difference between me and Yuma?"
[Uh... this is very simple, your brother has long hair and you have short hair! ] The system answered immediately.
Shigeto Tsujimoto stared silently at the crystal blue panel.
[Okay, I was wrong! Actually, you had already marked them when you were little! The one with long hair is the younger brother, and the one with short hair is the older brother! After all, you look exactly the same, so that’s how we distinguished you at the beginning.] The system stammered.
"Have you ever thought that I can also grow long hair, and Yuma can actually cut her hair short?" Shigetsu Tsujimoto said this faintly.
[Ah! Is this really the case?!] The system was shocked.
"You've been fooled by Yuma." Shigetto Tsujimoto slowly sat up.
"Didn't you say that when [Yuma] was unconscious, [Shibuto] took over the mission for him? In fact, the unconscious person should be me, and the person who took over the mission should be Yuma, right?"
"The deception was set up when I was very young. He pretended to be me and went to the black side, and I was tricked by him and you to go to the red side, and I didn't know anything about it."
"System, may I ask if your full name is Silly and Sweet System?"
[I…wuwuwu…I, I was wrong!! I was really wrong!!!] The system burst into tears.
"You can't be blamed entirely for this. After all, Yuma was the leader and you were deceived by him." Shigetsu Tsujimoto lifted the quilt. He saw his physical fitness value that just barely passed the passing line, thought for a moment, and continued:
"So, system, can you give me a data pen that can change the panel at will?"
[I can’t do this!] The system barked and cried again, [Host! If I could really do this, I would have drawn an infinite number for you guys! I really can’t do this! !]
"Then you can max out my physical fitness and stamina, and heal my injuries at the same time, is that ok?"
[Yes, it is possible, but the damage may only be slightly restored, and the value cannot be maxed out... Let me make a deal, I can't give you too many buffs, I will be fired by the company, and your body can't withstand so many debuffs!!] The system said pitifully.
"How much can I add at most?" asked Shigetto Tsujimoto.
[70……]
"Okay, 70 then."
Shigetto Tsujimoto thinks that he is still easy to talk to, and there is simply no host with a more conscientious conscience than him.
Of course, if the system heard this, it would definitely cry and call him a heartless capitalist.
[I’m risking my life to help you! You, you, you better not make a mistake!] the system cried.
"Got it, isn't it just returning to the black side? By the way, give Yuma a matching memory box. You should be able to control it remotely, right?"
[Matched...] The system feels aggrieved.
"That's good, you can go now." Shigeto Tsujimoto said with a smile.
[Ooo ...
He was in a terrible mood, but that didn't mean he had to vent his emotions on other people/the system.
Come to think of it, he has a really good temper.
"Officer involved?? Are you okay?"
Noticing that Tsujimoto Shigetsu had gotten off the bed, Morofushi Kagemitsu, who had just entered the room, hurried over.
The silver-haired police officer stared out the window silently, as if his attention was attracted by something, or he was lost in thought.
"Sheren... Jun?"
Zhu Fu Jingguang walked forward slowly, stretched out his hand and waved it in front of him.
"Are you okay? Are you able to walk?"
Has he recovered already? ? He was still semi-conscious and covered in wounds last night, but today he is fully alive?
The police officer involved is a Saiyan! !
Morofushi Kagemitsu started the cat universe.
"Ah, is it the ambush officer?" Shigetto Tsujimoto turned around and, as the man looked bewildered, he stretched out his arms and hugged him.
"Thank you for taking care of Yuma all that time. It must have been hard work. I'm sure your arms have been bruised a lot, right?"
Morobushi Kagemitsu was suddenly hugged: "Huh?? What???"
"It's much better than what I did back then." Tsujimoto Shigetto let go of Morobushi Kagemitsu and briefly examined his arm before sighing.
"Hey, his personality is much better now. At least you don't have as many scratches on your arms as I did back then."
Morofushi Kagemitsu: “???”
Is this some kind of cat raising experience sharing conference? ?
No! This isn’t the point right now!!
"By the way, I want to look for Yuma. Where is Inspector Furutani?" Tsujimoto Shigaraki changed the subject and went straight to a rather scary one.
"What are you going to do??"
Stunned by the other party's leaping frog-like thinking, Morofushi Jingguang was a little at a loss for a moment.
"I'm going to look for Yuma, and I can bring him back with assurance that I'm completely fine." Shigetto Tsujimoto looked into his eyes and said word by word.
"Take me to see Inspector Furuya. I'm going to meet A afterwards. Isn't he the most loyal to me? It would be a shame if he didn't show some self-worth, right?"
Doesn’t the Black Organization want to bring back the former Wataru Tsujimoto?
In that case, he gave them this kind of Shigeto Tsujimoto.
Such a heavy chip should be enough to replace Yuma, right?
