The image of Johnny getting the bonus flashed through his mind.
Gin lowered his head, hiding the deep thought in his eyes.
"If that's what you want," he said with a lukewarm nod.
But everyone in the organization knows that Gin and Johnny English are on the same boat. If Johnny English can become the future boss, Gin will naturally be able to rise to the top with the alliance between the two.
——Unless the two of them are not allies in this matter, but enemies.
Does Gin want to become the boss of the organization?
In fact, he didn't really think about it. After all, the boss of the organization sounded cool, but Gin also had a clear understanding of his own position. Compared to the person in power, he was more suitable and liked to be a weapon.
However, he also hates control and restraint - this is exactly what Crow did to him. Even with this loyalty to the Boss, under the long-term and endless suspicion, the weight of that loyalty gradually weakened and became lighter than Gin himself - and to break this restraint, probably only by doing something extremely rebellious.
Between two evils, choose the lesser one. Gin is not against accepting the future of becoming the boss of the organization.
But when Crow said this, a new door opened in front of Gin.
If it was that guy...
Gin imagined in his mind the possibility of being the other party's subordinate.
Karasuma Renya didn't realize what Gin was thinking.
After all, compared to professional Gin, his strength does not lie in observing changes in the object, not to mention that there is a layer of technology between him and Gin, which makes it impossible for him to keenly capture any changes in Gin.
Gin can be said to be one of Karasuma Renya's most "trusted" subordinates in the organization, and can also be regarded as his proud weapon. With his agreement, Karasuma Renya nodded and talked about the organization's recent plans.
After a while, he waved away his subordinates, closed the communication page, and opened a document video in the dark room.
This was a video that had just arrived on his computer not long ago. The last time it was opened was just an hour ago - that is, before the organization's high-level meeting began. Karasuma Renya slowly reopened the video, and in an instant, flames occupied the entire screen.
The man's eyes were fixed on the images on the screen, and his expression could almost be described as obsessive.
…
…
The result of having a weird winery party in the middle of the night was that I had to sleep until almost noon the next day.
It had been a while since Tsunayoshi Sawada had slept so well. He went downstairs yawning. Worker Bourbon had already left the house. Scotland seemed to have some tasks to do and had already changed his shoes at the entrance. Only Lei was left. Seeing him coming down, he waved his hand in a good mood.
When Scot's mother (crossed out) saw him, she casually told him where the breakfast was and left in a hurry. Lei, who seemed to have woken up not much earlier than him, pointed to the kitchen with a toothbrush in her mouth. So Sawada Tsunayoshi knew that the breakfast that Scot had left for him was probably in the kitchen.
As for the specific location, choose one of the three: in the pot, on the table, and in the refrigerator.
It was during the meal that Tsunayoshi Sawada realized that Bourbon had actually passed away a long time ago - probably at six in the morning, going to bed at three and getting up at six. Even Reborn would have complimented this big brother on his good health.
Scotland arrived later, around eight o'clock, about the same as usual. Seeing that Bourbon had already left, she was sullen for a while - excuse me, Sawada Tsunayoshi, he actually couldn't imagine Scotland being sullen, but according to Lei, it was quite rare to see her. Anyway, she was sullen for a while into the phone, and only hung up when Bourbon showed up. I guess she was talking to Bourbon on the phone.
However, Scotland and Bourbon left at the right time, because Andrea would most likely hang around them, so Sawada Tsunayoshi also intended to take Lei with him recently... Although he didn't know the specific details, looking at the child's condition, he strongly suspected that Andrea did not contact the FBI after leaving.
Looking at the black-haired cat Lei eating the sandwich at a leisurely pace, and thinking of another cat with black hair and green eyes, Sawada Tsunayoshi couldn't help but sigh, and felt that he could eat one less of the heart-shaped sandwich specially made by his Scottish mother.
Sawada Tsunayoshi: "Alas."
Akai Shuichi: ? ?
For the thirteenth time, he heard Johnny, who was having breakfast across the street, sighed, and Akai Shuichi pricked up his ears alertly.
He was in good condition last night, but why did he suddenly become sentimental after sleeping... Did he do something in his dream?
What he didn't expect was that he could actually make Johnny miss him more (huh?). While being alert, he also wanted to take the opportunity to extract some information - last night was a good opportunity, but before he could say anything, and even failed to find out the whereabouts of Senior Andrea, Scotland and Bourbon got involved.
Akai Hide thought expresslessly, it seems that dislikes each other, but they are connected with each other with the support of Johnny Win, but the strange thing is that every time he tries to do something, those two guys will interfere... So in fact, the only ones who have a bad relationship are him and those two, and the relationship between Scotland and Bourbon has been improved without his knowledge, right?
He picked up a small tomato with his fork, put it in his mouth, and chewed it indifferently, feeling as if he was isolated.
Tsunayoshi Sawada:?
He thought about the work he was going to give to Lei today and asked tentatively.
"How was your recent mission?" he asked. "I'm sorry to ask you to accompany me to pick up Shiho-chan today."
This is about the young Miyano Shiho who needs a code member to accompany her when she goes out.
As his connection with the magazine company has deepened recently, Tsunayoshi Sawada thought about it and decided to keep Lai away from him for the time being... Although he is confident that nothing will be revealed, even if something is revealed, it is most likely just a strange story of official agencies of the two countries recognizing each other within the organization, but isn't it better to have less trouble than more?
And even if he is not worried, he still has to consider the physical and mental safety of the contact person.
The image of the serious social animal contact clerk in my imagination suddenly turned into a eloquent black-haired young man. Although there was a subtle sense of strangeness, there was more of a sense of freshness.
And although he is not the bald-headed black suit with glasses as imagined, Mr. Hagiwara's dedication to his work is still impressive... It is said that he worked until 5:30 for several nights in a row to write the debut plan, and then he had to go to the magazine office to work from 9 to 5 in the morning, which makes people feel awe.
It's this feeling of being a corporate slave that is subtly familiar.
Shuichi Akai never expected that his boss would apologize to him for such a thing.
Maybe it was because he "cried" last night and asked his boss if he was disliked that the soft-hearted boss finally remembered him, so today's task was for him and his boss together.
Although it is different from the imagined dark missions such as assassination, negotiation, and transaction, Miyano Shiho is at least one of the most valued scientists in the organization in recent years. From her, we can also learn a lot of information about the drugs being developed by the organization that Johnny cannot know.
So he accepted his boss's apology calmly.
"Miyano Shiho... is Miss Akemi's younger sister." His green eyes flashed with reminiscence. "It has been quite some time since I last saw them."
Sawada Tsunayoshi took a sip of milk with a guilty conscience.
Mr. Godfather would never admit that he was subtly shocked by the way Lei, that is, the big star, had entered the organization by fraud.
Even though he was not sure at first that Zhu Xingda was the undercover agent sent by the FBI after Andrea, based on the fact that the other party was trying to find a rich woman to live off of by professional fraud, he would try his best to separate him from the person who was fraudulently framed, Miyano Akemi.
But later on it was confirmed that Zhu Xingda was an undercover agent of the FBI, so pretending to be a gigolo was probably part of the plan... Was it something he had to do?
But if you think about it this way, it feels even more rubbish. An undercover agent who relies on deceiving women's feelings to enter the organization and rise to the top... Isn't this the behavior of a scumbag!
While waiting for Lei to wash the dishes, Sawada Tsunayoshi quickly went over this logic in his mind, and immediately entered a strange mode of rabbit universe sublimation.
Lei, who was wearing the funny pink bunny apron from the kitchen and came out to wipe the table:?
After Lai finished cleaning up, Sawada Tsunayoshi shook the black-haired young man's hand - to be honest, the sight of the gun in the other's hand was a bit annoying.
Then he said, "Before that, let's go to the bookstore first."
Lei:?
The elite FBI was stunned for a rare moment.
Looking at his boss's sincere and serious expression, he responded hesitantly.
Sawada Tsunayoshi felt guilty when he saw Lai looking like she didn't know what happened.
Thinking about it carefully, he had never heard of any nickname of Lai in the organization. What happened before might be arranged by the FBI. He himself was just following the FBI's instructions and wanted to use Miyano Akemi to get promoted... Even so, Sawada Tsunayoshi, who had always been educated to love and protect women, could no longer stand it.
He sat in the passenger seat, watching Lei driving steadily, and decided to give it a try first.
"Come to think of it, I haven't really cared about you, Lai Yi, or your life situation." The brown-haired young man leaned his hand against the window and asked casually, "Do you have a girlfriend now?"
Shuichi Akai almost rushed out as soon as the clutch was released, but he was still very stable, and looked at Johnny who asked this question with a calm look.
"no."
"Oh," Sawada Tsunayoshi paused, "Not now, but what about before?"
Akai Shuichi thought about it for a moment, and following the principle that the best lies are half true and half false, he answered, "There was one before."
Sawada Tsunayoshi's eyes lit up and he moved closer to Lei like a gossipy aunt.
"Before?" he asked, "Why did you break up?"
Asking someone why they broke up with their ex-girlfriend right away is indeed an act of low EQ, but this person is Johnny Yingjia. After hesitating between saying "I have no comment" with a cold face and fooling the other party with the reason for his breakup with his ex-girlfriend, Judy, who is also an FBI investigator, Shuichi chose the latter.
Appropriate gossip and secrets can bring you closer to your boss.
Besides, Bourbon, Scotland and Johnny Wong seem to have a good relationship... Scotland is fine, even he would be confused by that kind of person at some point, but Bourbon? I don't know when that shady little black-faced guy, with his good tea-making skills, made Johnny Wong lose his normal judgment.
Shuichi Akai sometimes feels like a concubine competing for favor in the emperor's (Johnny's) harem. The enemies he faces include not only the superior Scotland, but also a little black-faced man who is good at making tea and is competing openly and secretly with him.
Thinking of Bourbon's behavior in front of Johnny English, Shuichi Akai lowered his eyes.
"I broke up with her after I decided to come to Japan." He looked calm, but Sawada Tsunayoshi could sense an indescribable emotion from him. "I can't fall in love with two people at the same time*, and I told her so."
For Tsunayoshi Sawada, who knew about Shuichi Akai's original plan, this just happened to correspond to the other party's fraudulent behavior, which made the label of scumbag that he was ready to put on Shuichi Akai fade a little.
But that's just one point. It only shows that the other person is not a two-timing guy, but he is still a bad guy who tries to deceive the feelings of an innocent girl.
Tsunayoshi Sawada puffed up his cheeks imperceptibly and dragged Shuichi Akai into the bookstore.
Modern society has developed a lot compared to the past.
This development is not only reflected in the development of science and technology and the improvement of material life, but also in the changes in people's concepts.
For example, no matter which country, women were treated very harshly in the past. Women had to follow more rules than men, lost more freedom, and were not equal to other genders in status. The development of modern society is reflected in this aspect...
"I got it." Sawada Tsunayoshi searched for a long time in the bookstore and found a booklet in the moral education section and handed it to Lai.
The young man with long black hair was cool and sexy, and attracted a lot of attention as soon as he entered the bookstore.
He lowered his eyes and reached out to take the book that Tsunayoshi Sawada handed to him.
Like Gin, Shuichi Akai is also a cigarette lover. He once mocked Tsunayoshi Sawada for not knowing how to smoke. When the other party took the book from him, a faint smell of cigarettes came over.
Unexpectedly, it does not smell like the usual low-quality cigarettes, but has a light fragrance.
Shuichi Akai took the book and paused when he saw the title of the book, then repeated the title in a confused and lost voice.
"A handbook for cultivating good men in the new era... How to cultivate male virtues?"
…
When Vodka entered the bookstore, he heard the girls around him chattering about something.
He pressed down his black hat to make sure he would not be recognized... How the hell was it possible for him to meet someone who knew him here? If he was not in the organization, who would come to the bookstore to buy recipes?
Although he thought so, he still held his head in the atmosphere which was much more noisy than usual.
Then I heard the girls' delicate voices coming into my ears.
"What did the handsome guy over there just say...male morality?"
"So handsome! Are boys nowadays also interested in this?"
"There was a handsome guy next to him. He was the one who handed the book to the handsome guy. Did they study together? (Laughs)"
It turned out to be a handsome man holding a book on men's ethics.
As a 5G surfing expert, Vodka certainly knows what male morality means. It's just the moral character of men... Although Vodka smokes, drinks and hangs out in gangs, he is a good man who dares to boast about this.
The guy being praised by these people is just a little handsome. Shouldn't a man be as manly as him or the elder brother?
Aren't they just two pretty boys?
Just as he was thinking this, the two girls who were discussing seemed to have noticed him.
"Hey, look, there's also an old man in the recipe section?"
"Indeed, nowadays, men have to improve their competitiveness." Another girl said confidently, "After all, being ugly is pitiful. If you can't please your girlfriend in other ways, you might be dumped soon."
Another person felt sympathetic: "That's right."
Vodka: …
Damn it, Vodka is much more manly than those gigolos! They are just two gigolos!!
With a heart that refused to admit defeat, he raised his head and looked over. When he saw clearly the two guys being discussed, his mind went blank for a moment. The last sentence he just thought of, "Pretty boy?", kept echoing in his mind like an echo in an empty valley.
Although he knew he had not been discovered, Vodka still forced a half-crying smile under his mask.
Yes, it’s Johnny Lee.
He was actually with that pretty boy, oh no, it seemed to be his subordinate, the guy named Lei Yi, he was actually going to the bookstore with Lei Yi to advise on buying books on how to please girls?
Is his CP going to be a be?
Vodka was shocked and cried, but even if he was sad enough to play Chopin in the rain, Vodka couldn't rush up to Johnny Winger and grab him by the collar to ask him if he had fallen in love with a girl and wanted to be with his elder brother.
He couldn't even ask because this cp was originally an air cp.
Even if Johnny got married and had children with that girl and his eldest brother became the best man, he would have nowhere to cry.
The vodka wilts.
He was so sad that he was still depressed when he returned to the car to pick up his elder brother.
Logically speaking, Vodka should care about (?) his elder brother.
After all, even though he didn't let him follow, Vodka also knew who Gin was meeting today.
- Novan Dutch, Johnny's subordinate in Italy.
Vodka and Novantine don't have much in common. All we know is that the other is a die-hard Johnny English fan and a hardcore fan. Even the eldest brother calls that guy a "mad dog", which shows how mentally abnormal he is.
But his loyalty and ability to Johnny are real, so no matter how competitive they are, they will cooperate with each other when necessary.
Of course, the open and covert fighting and whispering outside of the cooperation period is another matter.
Vodka once thought that this guy might be the biggest obstacle on his Gin & Johnny's road to becoming a CP, but he didn't expect that today his CP would fall apart on its own... Never mind, it was just an empty CP in the first place, what was he expecting?
Although thinking this, Vodka couldn't stop drinking. Although he was driving, some depression mushrooms seemed to have grown on his body.
His elder brother let out a disdainful sound.
"Stop."
Vodka parked the car obediently.
Vodka, who had a tacit understanding with his elder brother that no one else could achieve, of course knew that his elder brother was not in trouble. The other party was just getting off the car to buy a cigarette to let him clear his mind - you know, usually it was Vodka who bought cigarettes for his elder brother, but now his elder brother actually went there by himself.
Feeling his big brother's special kindness, the little brother sniffed inwardly, and under his big brother's distant gaze, he imagined countless ways of having sex with him, but in the end, he still felt heartbroken.
Finally, when his elder brother got in the car, he said this somewhat awkwardly.
"Well, big brother..."
Gin looked at him silently.
Vodka knew that if he continued like this his elder brother would become impatient, so he closed his eyes and cut the Gordian knot.
"What do you think of Johnny getting a chance to learn about men's virtues... Oh no, that's not what I meant," he took a deep breath and asked loudly, "What do you think of Johnny getting a chance to learn about men's virtues!"
…
…
silence.
Speechless silence.
Gin finally made a decision about the state of the vodka, which seemed to be in trouble - it was broken.
He didn't even bother to answer. He gave Vodka a look that said "you understand" and then lit a cigarette and smoked it slowly.
I don't know what day it was recently, but this was the second person who asked him about Johnny's success.
Although Vodka seemed to be spoiled, which was why he asked this question, it didn't stop Gin from making a note of it.
But this is very strange, making the usually calm Gin a little irritated after a long time.
Whatever it is, what can it be? He thought coldly and cruelly that Johnny Englishman was just Johnny Englishman, so what was the difference between "what kind of person he was"?
Gin felt that he had a deep understanding of the brown-haired kid.
After all, it was himself who shaped him into what he is now. Although he didn't know what kind of wild upbringing that guy had gone through in Italy, and it felt a little beyond his expectations, he still looked like one with the darkness.
What's there to say? Isn't this normal?
While I was saying this in my heart, another voice was arguing that Johnny's addition might be a little different.
But what is the difference? Is it because the other party is the first one to realize his dissatisfaction with the boss? Or is it because of the so-called accomplice?
I have to admit that Gin actually likes the feeling of dragging the guys who originally belonged to the light realm into the darkness together. After all, he himself has been in this quagmire for a long time. If he sees something he likes, wouldn't it be fun to dye the other person the same color as himself?
But something unexpected happened after Johnny left him.
The Italian mafia, the little bugs in the organization, and the guys who constantly gathered around Johnny seemed to give his possessions different colors.
Although most of them are black, even black can be deep, shallow, or even colorful. Gin was very angry when his possessions came in other colors.
But his temper has improved a lot in recent years, so he can tolerate it for the time being. Even if a mad dog jumps in front of him, he can turn a blind eye for the sake of Johnny's reputation.
...Can this really be tolerated?
Gin closed his eyes, and the face of the crow appeared in his mind.
["As a leader—as my heir, in other words—what do you think of Johnny's inclusion?"]
——That is of course very good.
As the head of the organization, Johnny English could no longer live in Italy as he had before.
He will become the gang's hands and feet, gun and shield, imprisoning his accomplices in a cage in the name of the organization.
Just thinking about it, you can see how beautiful it would be.
