Chapter 190
A few casual words from Usaku Saiki almost caused Shuichi Akai's brain to overheat.
However, Shuichi Akai quickly realized what was happening.
—Bo Yezaki is playing tricks on people again.
There is a possibility that a random guess might lead you to believe he is an FBI agent, but the possibility of a random guess that he is related to Akemi Miyano is almost nonexistent.
And both of these things were guessed correctly at the same time...
Shuichi Akai could not believe such a coincidence.
However, after giving him this information, Bo Yezhai then turned around and denied his actions...
Shuichi Akai strongly suspected that this guy wasn't just being cautious and didn't want to talk much on the phone, but simply had a mean personality and was deliberately trying to mess with his mind.
“…I understand.” Shuichi Akai took a deep breath, not pressing the issue, but simply hinting, “I look forward to seeing you again.”
Usakabe Saiki said in a disdainful and indifferent tone, "Eh? I'm not looking forward to it at all. I hate the FBI the most."
Shuichi Akai: "...Okay, I understand. I won't bother you anymore."
He had heard similar phrases like "I hate the FBI" from Usaku Saiki several times, but each time his feelings were different.
Now, the thought that Usakabe Saiki knew his identity all along, and that every time he said he hated the FBI, he wasn't just making veiled accusations, but was genuinely cursing him... made his feelings particularly complicated.
So, if you hate the FBI so much, why are you helping them?
What is the real thought behind Usoppō Saiki's always unpredictable behavior?
Shuichi Akai thought that Vodka was right; guessing Saiki Usaba's thought process was a very profound subject—and the most terrifying thing was that everyone had gotten the research direction wrong.
Usuoba Saiki is really something, could he be an undercover agent? To be an undercover agent to this extent...
The voice of Usaku Saiki involuntarily echoed in his mind.
[Gin is an undercover agent, right? Vodka definitely is too, and so are you, and so on... Sigh, I'm just an ordinary person who wants to do my job properly, and I'm surrounded by a bunch of traitors who are holding me back. It's so hard for me.]
Akai Shuichi: "…………"
Well, even if Usakabe Saiki isn't an undercover agent, it's truly a blessing for the organization to be able to recruit someone like him.
Yes, even at this point, Shuichi Akai still couldn't be sure whether Saiki Usaku was truly on his side.
After all, what he was now 100% certain of, besides the fact that Bo Yezaki already knew his identity, was that Bo Yezaki had a very bad personality...
Both have silver hair and green eyes, but Gin's danger is obvious to the naked eye, while Usui's danger is deeply hidden. Only when you suddenly realize it do you find yourself already deeply involved.
Especially for those who didn't take Usaku Saiki's words seriously, the shock they felt when they realized what was happening was indescribable.
Considering Usakabe Saiki's age... he wasn't even an adult when he joined the organization, right?
Shuichi Akai hung up the phone and couldn't help but press his temples.
...Anyway, it's great that such a terrifying guy isn't just a pure enemy.
As for whether or not they can cooperate, he'll ask about it when Bo Yezaki is in a better mood next time.
After teasing Shuichi Akai, Usui looked at the flood of suspicion points that had accumulated and felt satisfied: [As expected, the undercover agent was the one who thought the most!]
The system was thrilled: [As expected of you! You came up with something new so quickly!]
As for Furuya Rei and Morofushi Kagemitsu, since they are part of the Japanese Public Security Bureau and have their own intelligence network, it's quite natural for them to suspect Usui Saiki. On the other hand, Akai Shuichi is too patient. Even though they had already hinted at it with his sister, Akai Shuichi still refrained from testing them. And most people have already become desensitized to the tactic of spreading rumors that someone is an undercover agent...
Usui Saiki then came up with a new idea, tormenting Akai Shuichi to the point that he contributed a day and a night's worth of Usui Saiki's usual weekly output when he wasn't doing anything special...
That's incredibly prolific! Shuichi Akai!
Usoppei boasted shamelessly: "Helping others is a pleasure, so Shuichi Akai doesn't need to thank me too much."
system:【…………】
There was nothing it could say... Usui Saiki exposing the kinship between Akai Shuichi and Miyano Akemi might not necessarily be a good thing for either of them.
If, like in the original work, Shuichi Akai joined the organization through his relationship with Akemi Miyano, then Saiki Usui telling her about this kinship is indeed helping them.
The situation is different now. Even if Shuichi Akai is exposed later, the Miyano sisters can still maintain their previous status in the organization. One continues to develop drugs, and the other continues to be a nanny for Saiki Usui.
But now that Shuichi Akai knows that the Miyano sisters are his cousins, and one of them is an important executive who might know some core intelligence, it's impossible for him not to think about anything. He might already be thinking about how to bring her back to the FBI.
Once Akai Hideaki has this idea, the daily pressure will definitely be much greater than simply being an undercover agent gathering intelligence, since stealing someone from the organization is no easy feat...
Even the system couldn't help but wonder if Usui Saiki really hated the FBI. This didn't seem like a kind offer at all; it was more like he had found a high-sounding excuse to annoy Shuichi Akai, and Shuichi Akai should thank him for it.
but……
[It seems that your image in Shuichi Akai's mind doesn't need a "behind-the-scenes aura" to achieve a similar effect.]
Bo Yezaki pretended to wipe away tears: [It's all because I'm unlucky and encountered a buggy system. Otherwise, I could have just activated the "cover-up aura" in the organization and been doing just fine. I wouldn't have to suffer like this.]
System headache: [I'll submit another report to check on the progress of the undercover system maintenance.]
It's really not easy for Usaku Saiki to achieve an effect similar to "the halo of darkness" through his own abilities... Hmm?
The system suddenly realized something.
To be able to achieve this level... Usaku Saiki's acting skills don't seem too bad...?
"Little Deep Current~"
Just then, the rooftop door opened, and Kenji Hagiwara walked over: "I knew you'd be here. You really like the rooftop, huh?"
Usoppei regained his calm expression and casually remarked, "Delinquents all like rooftops."
Kenji Hagiwara was used to this kind of self-deprecation and knew it was the other person's dry humor.
However, after hearing this, he couldn't help but imagine what Hanchuan Shenliu looked like in junior high and high school... Hmm, if the school uniform was the kind with a tsukigami collar, and the buttons weren't fastened properly, revealing the white shirt underneath... he really did look like a delinquent in a TV drama.
And he must be the leader of the delinquent youths.
He knew that Han Chuan Shenliu wouldn't mind, so he asked directly, "Speaking of which, were you ever bullied when you were in school?"
"...Who's got the guts to do that?" Bo Ye Saiki couldn't help but complain.
Kenji Hagiwara then asked, "Did you bully anyone else?"
Usoya Saiki: "Back then, I didn't like to pay attention to others. If they didn't bother me, I wouldn't do anything."
Hmm... Hagiwara Kenji recalled the scene when Samikawa Shinryu isolated everyone at the police academy and thought it made sense, otherwise he wouldn't have been unable to make friends.
If you really want to make friends but are isolated by others, wouldn't that be too pitiful?
Kofuka's personality actually makes people feel more at ease.
"I'd really like to see what Fukami Nagare looked like as a child," Kenji Hagiwara suddenly said. "Do you have any photos?"
Usoya Saiki remained calm: "No, what photos would an orphan take?"
Hagihara Kenji: "…………"
Well, having a strong inner strength is certainly good, but it's too much. It seems like Shinryu himself doesn't take it seriously, but those around him are constantly getting hurt...
"...It's a bit of a shame." Kenji Hagiwara finally sighed regretfully. "I feel like Fukami Nagashi must have been very cute when he was little...and you don't like taking pictures now, so when you look back on this in a few years, you probably won't have any photos to show."
"It's alright, I've remembered everything."
He avoids cameras altogether, let alone taking pictures; he simply doesn't like leaving any traces.
On the other hand, the main body...
Not only are there photos, but the photos seem to still be in Gin's hands... Ugh!
Usoppō Saiki felt a chill.
I usually don't think about this, but now that I've suddenly realized it, it feels disgusting!
He didn't even know what he looked like in that photo. Anyway, it must have been automatically generated by the undercover system to fill in the gaps in his identity... Sigh, the photo that was originally there should have been Han Chuan Shenliu's. What was the undercover system thinking back then?!
Even though it's fake, I'll still ask Gin for that photo back later.
While Bo Yezaki was busy causing trouble for others and living a carefree life, the international bomber Pramia, whom he reported to the organization as a performance indicator, was not so fortunate.
She found another letter in the safe house she had just moved to, asking her to meet at a certain location, as they wanted to talk to her about something.
This time, the tone of the letter was much more businesslike, and even revealed an intention to recruit.
...Oh, I see. That explains how they were able to find the address of that bomber who had just been released from prison. Turns out there was an organization behind it!
So, was that third-rate bomber jealous that she was also being recruited, and wanted to duel her to make her back down? Or did the organization want to test her abilities and use her as a guinea pig to test the waters?
What a joke! She has no desire to join any organization!
And they even investigated her without her consent...
Pramia sneered repeatedly.
If you're going to recruit her, you should at least prove your abilities. Otherwise, do you expect her to agree to anything just because someone finds out her true identity?
Let's survive her bomb first, then we'll talk about everything else!

Akai's View of Thin Leaves: A Dangerous and Terrifying Guy
↑A truly artificial black screen halo effect ( )
From now on, Akai will be completely out of place with the organization members...
.
Bo Ye: Okay, tell him this news, increase his pressure, and add the task of rescuing people, and also make him frequently contribute to my suspicion points...
Akai: Thank you.
system:……

When Usoba was in junior and senior high school in the original world... emmm... he really did look like a delinquent.
