Chapter 174



Furuya Rei's bottom line and sensitive point is Morobushi Kagemitsu - they are relatives and friends, and grew up together like brothers and family.

In particular, Morobushi Kagemitsu had been gone from his heart for four years. These four long years were enough for his nostalgia to glorify the childhood he had lost to a level that he would never allow anyone to slander.

It's just that his profession is too dangerous. Even if someone mentions Scotland in front of him, he can only maintain a mocking, cold and nonchalant attitude, otherwise he will expose the relationship between himself and Scotland.

Therefore, the only time that Furuya Rei can vent his anger is when he is facing Akai Shuichi.

Because Shuichi Akai is an undercover agent, a traitor, and an enemy of the organization. As a member of the organization, he can show his malice to Shuichi Akai without any scruples, without revealing his own identity.

Because Akai Shuichi is from the FBI in the United States, the two countries naturally have conflicts of interest and contradictory consciousness, which is equivalent to an outsider invading their own country. As a Japanese public security officer, Furuya Rei naturally hates such existence.

Regardless of the reasons, it was natural for Furuya Rei to dislike Akai Shuichi, not to mention... there was another person involved.

Even though he knew the truth and deduced that Kagemitsu committed suicide, Furuya Rei still had the mentality of "If it were you, you would have stopped him from committing suicide! Why couldn't you save him!"

Just like Haibara Ai back then, she cried to Conan Edogawa, "Why didn't you save my sister!"

The two are similar - because Haibara Ai believes that Edogawa Conan has the ability and opportunity to save her sister, the same thing happened to Akai Shuichi back then.

But Miyano Akemi died, and Morofushi Kagemitsu also died.

It was a recognition of their strength, but also an outburst of uncontrollable rage.

Conan Edogawa felt sorry for not being able to save Miyano Akemi, and could not deny Miyano Shiho's anger and grief, so he could only lower his eyes and let Miyano Shiho, who had turned into Haibara Ai, vent her tears in front of him.

The same is true for Akai Shuichi.

Because from the very beginning, Rei Furuya had a line drawn between his three identities.

Bourbon, Furuya Rei, and Amuro Toru are all the same person. However, the distinctions between the three identities of Furuya Rei are becoming more and more obvious.

A serious public security police officer, a terrifying member of the organization, and a gentle Poirot waiter.

They are one person, yet not one person.

Four years ago, he and Zhufu Jingguang could support each other. When either of them couldn't hold on any longer, the other could wake them up. They acted in front of outsiders, and smiled at each other quietly when others didn't notice. Their eyes were full of trust and closeness, and they could talk about any topic with each other. They knew that as long as the other was there, they could hold on.

When Morofuku Kagemitsu's defenses collapsed, he would only go to Furuya Rei. But now, who can Furuya Rei go to?

All of Rei Furuya's past friends have left him, and the people he met as an undercover agent can't believe him. He has no friends or family, and is all alone. He wants to vent, but he can't.

He cannot get drunk because he will tell secrets that he should not tell when he is drunk. He must stay sober and not let his emotions control his brain.

Only when facing Akai Shuichi can he express disgust and anger as a matter of course.

This was the only way for him to vent his anger. Only in front of Akai Shuichi could he abandon his rationality.

How could Shuichi Akai not know this? But he readily accepted it, and even deliberately guided Rei Furuya's emotions, saying some slightly excessive words to make Rei Furuya express his anger in his heart. Keeping it in his heart will only make Rei Furuya deviate further and further from his original track.

Because he was once an undercover agent, Shuichi Akai had experienced all the psychological problems that an undercover agent would have - alcohol and cigarettes are enough to paralyze a person's nerves, and how could Shuichi Akai not have the experience of not being able to sleep all night?

So what if Akai Shuichi is strong and excellent? He is still a human being. He is just good at self-regulation, can control his emotions in front of others, and endure everything by himself.

Most importantly, Akai Shuichi has left the organization and no longer has to face the evil deeds that disgust him. He has enough time to get in touch with the light side, he doesn't need to be vigilant all the time, and he can rest for a while next to his partner.

And Furuya Rei is still struggling in the dark and damp black mud, and cannot and will not escape from it.

His close friends who had stood by him in the past left him.

He replayed the terrifying scene in his mind again and again, and he felt the temperature under his palm gradually turning cold... The death of his best friend four years ago has always been a nightmare that Rei Furuya could not forget.

If anyone said this, Furuya Rei's first reaction would be that the other party was testing him and he needed to be alert, because the other party might suspect the relationship between him and the dead Scotland and would discover his identity as a public security officer.

However, the one who said this was Zhufu Kongliang.

He is Yujin's biological brother, and he has known his identity from the beginning.

Furiya Rei froze in place. He began to wonder what the words he heard meant. Was there some hidden code in them? Or was it just an illusion because he hadn't slept for two days and only rested for 20 minutes?

Furuya Rei couldn't even parse the meaning and connection between them, and just looked at the pair of upturned blue cat eyes with an expression of being unable to react.

The person who most wants Morofushi Kagemitsu to be alive must be Furutani Rei.

But on the contrary, the person who is least willing to believe that Morobushi Kagemitsu is alive would be Furuya Rei.

Because childhood memories were too important to him, he didn't have even a glimmer of hope. Because Furuya Rei knew very well that once hope arose, the despair that followed would be enough to crush him and make him collapse.

A hand waved in front of Rei Furuya's eyes. Hagiwara Kenji still had that gentle smile on his face, but there was a hint of worry in his expression: "Little Furuya? Are you okay?"

"...I'm fine." Fūya Rei closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, he had regained his stern and serious attitude as a public security officer.

Seeing the smile on Zhufu Kongliang's face, Furuya Ling was silent for a while before asking, "Evidence."

"I can give you any evidence you want." Zhu Fukongliang narrowed his eyes: "The premise is, do you believe what I say?"

Unlike Kenji Hagiwara who only has one sister, DNA testing related to kinship can confirm Kenji Hagiwara's identity. Even without DNA, just by meeting him, Chitose Hagiwara can recognize his biological brother. This is ironclad evidence.

Morobushi Jingguang has two brothers. Even if the DNA relationship is tested, it can be the connection between Morobushi Gaoming and Morobushi Kongliang. Morobushi Jingguang erased all traces of himself when he was undercover, so now there is nothing left.

As for the other thing that could be used to prove Morobushi Jingguang's identity... the cell phone stained with Morobushi Jingguang's blood, since the phone was no longer in his hands, there were also countless opportunities and time for it to be forged.

Although I don’t know what the purpose is or what it can achieve.

Zhu Fukongliang opened his mouth, and outside the window, which was originally quiet, there was a sudden flash of lightning that was too bright and startling, followed by a huge rumbling thunder.

The black-haired police officer could only give up the words that were on his lips once again, just like he gave up on revealing Bourbon's identity in front of Gin on the train (come to think of it, he still has some nostalgia for this situation) - Hagiwara Kenji was wearing a fake skin of Katai Genjin, and Morofuku Sora had no idea to what extent he had guessed in his head.

It's different with Rei Furuya, he's one of the main characters, so you can't even talk to him directly about anything out of the ordinary.

The words on Zhu Fu Kong Liang's lips turned into a third question: "I can give you evidence, but do you believe me?"

What was going on in Furuya Rei's mind? Without the existence of superpowers, Morobu Sora Ryo didn't know. But at this moment, the blond police officer lowered his eyes and exhaled in a slightly unfamiliar manner: "I believe you."

"Really?" Zhufu Kongliang also responded casually. At this time, he noticed the look that Hagiwara Kenji gave him and suddenly became interested.

Before Rei Furuya could calm down, he looked blankly and dully at his former classmate, and his best friend's younger brother suddenly hugged his arms on both sides.

The sudden loss of balance made Fūya Rei panic. Hagiwara Kenji said with a smile: "Since you answered Sora Ryo, can you answer a question for me, Fūya?"

Although he had come here to call for an explanation, Furuya Rei swallowed and inexplicably felt a little guilty: "...What?"

"Tell me, when was the last time you got at least 6 hours of continuous sleep?" The young man with silver-gray hair tilted his head and even acted cute.

Furuya Rei—Furuya Rei fell silent.

You can't say it was the time when Kong Liang anesthetized him last time? Was it six hours at that time...?

"So that's how it is—" Hagiwara Kenji and Morobushi Soryo jointly controlled Furuya Rei's attempt to struggle, and directly dragged him into the bedroom and stuffed him into the bed.

Hagiwara Kenji smiled and said, "I know you don't recognize your bed, so don't make excuses."

"It's eight o'clock in the evening now. You have at least ten hours to go to work tomorrow. If it's not possible, I can go to work for you. Anyway, I don't have a job now."

"You can use four hours to adapt to this strange environment. There is no surveillance or monitoring. You can lock the door and turn off your cell phone. You won't force me to dismantle your cell phone and take away the battery, right?"

"Since you have time to come here to complain to me, it proves that all your work today is not particularly important, at least not so important that it must be solved today." Hagiwara Kenji leaned close to his classmate's face and said in an extremely serious tone: "So today, you should have a good night's rest."

It was obvious that Furuya Rei wanted to say something, but was blocked by his beloved classmate. Although Morobuchi Sora Ryo didn't say anything, there was a hint of threat on his face - as if to say that if you resist again, you will be anesthetized.

Furiya Rei shut up.

After leaving the bedroom to him and closing the door, Hagiwara Kenji turned to Morofuku Soryo and said, "Little Furuya, he..."

"You don't have to tell me, I can see it." Zhu Fu Kongliang shrugged and said calmly: "He doesn't believe me."
