Chapter 49 Chapter 49 They must be having an affair!
Olga's gloomy eyes passed over Amuro Toru and then to Vermouth. They both tacitly avoided mentioning Olga's previous order to locate the undercover agent in front of Amuro Toru, instead treating "Rena Mizunashi" as a new mission to discuss.
But this tacit understanding did not last long.
Olga said, "I refuse."
Although she lost some of her memory, through Vermouth's recollection, she had clearly reported to Rum several times before that Rena Mizunashi was an undercover agent.
Since Rum didn't believe her, Olga felt there was no point in wasting time. She was already tired of the constant searching.
"I still have school to go to," Olga lied calmly. "I still have a lot of homework to do."
Toru Amuro: "..."
Amuro Toru probably guessed something from the fragments of what Vermouth and Olga said, but...it was obviously him who did the homework...
Vermouth remained unmoved: "This is Rum's order. If you have any objections, you can go and talk to Rum in person."
When Olga mentioned rum, the gloomy aura on her body almost overflowed.
Vermouth looked at her again, then turned her gaze to Amuro Toru: "Bourbon, keep an eye on Arthas. This time, Rum requires you to go with Arthas."
It wasn't that Rum didn't trust Olga's abilities. What Vermouth didn't mention was that Rum was probably doing this to prevent Olga from causing trouble, so he needed someone to keep an eye on her. And Amuro Toru was undoubtedly the most suitable person.
Who among the core members of the organization didn't know that? Arthas would only listen to Bourbon.
However, this happened before Olga fell into the sea. Apparently, the organization's members, including Rum and Vermouth, hadn't yet updated their database. They wishfully believed Bourbon could control Arthas, but they didn't consider that if he could truly control him, how could such a collision with the barrier pier have occurred?
Before Amuro Toru could say anything, he heard a series of shattering sounds. He turned and saw Olga smashing every vases and porcelain in the house onto the floor.
Vermouth remained calm amidst the clanging, thrashing noises, as if she were already accustomed to it. She gave Amuro Toru another long, deep look before leaving the room.
Now, only Toru Amuro and Olga were left in the room.
After Olga had trashed the house, she was so angry that she couldn't breathe. Her face was pale and almost blue, and her lips were bloodless.
Amuro Toru knew something was wrong at first glance.
Sure enough, the next second, Olga knelt on the ground, holding her heart in pain.
Amuro Toru quickly pulled the doctor's prescription painkillers from her pocket. Olga swallowed two pills dry into Amuro Toru's palm. She clutched his sleeve tightly, her emerald eyes fixed on the door with a sinister look.
"I'm going to kill him."
"He" naturally refers to Rum.
Toru Amuro covered Olga's mouth and looked around vigilantly.
This is the organization's property, and he hadn't checked it beforehand. Who knows if there might be any eavesdropping devices here or something.
Olga sneered and broke free from Amuro Toru's hand: "Rum won't be happy about the possibility of being eavesdropped on."
The implication is that there is absolutely no eavesdropping device in this house.
Amuro Toru only sighed softly and said, "Don't say such things next time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Amuro Toru felt himself being stared at by a deep gaze. He was not afraid of Olga's gaze, but simply touched her head: "At least until you can break free from the control of the group-Rum."
He saw Olga purse her lips. Her eyes were still filled with gloom, but she didn't say anything more.

Rena Mizunashi now mostly operates in Japan. Therefore, to investigate her, Olga would have to fly from America to Japan.
As for academics? Oh, I guess with the organization's management, the professors wouldn't object to remote teaching. Olga felt that she might graduate by correspondence...even though Toru Amuro was writing the homework and the paper.
Olga didn't like being in Japan, perhaps because she was not familiar with the place, or perhaps because she had strong separation anxiety. On the other hand, Amuro Toru seemed to be completely at ease.
Yes, he had lived in Japan for many years before joining the organization. Olga glanced at Amuro Toru in the driver's seat with a puzzled look, then sneered silently.
Letting an undercover agent catch an undercover agent, Rum must be crazy.
Thinking of this, Olga turned her gaze indifferently to the front. From this angle, she could see Mizunashi Rena in a cafe.
What Olga didn't understand was that if the organization didn't trust Rena Mizunashi, why did they let her come to Japan? It would have been safer to put her in America, after all, most of the organization's core personnel were in Japan.

Mizunashi Rena sat alone at a table in a corner of the cafe, and all the other seats around the table were empty. But...
"Are the methods used by undercover agents today so simple?"
Olga yawned and rubbed her sleepy eyes. She didn't want to continue investigating this idiotic task with no technical difficulty.
There was no one sitting opposite or next to Rena Mizunashi, but there was someone sitting behind her!
The seating arrangement in this cafe is quite crowded. People sitting back to back at two different tables can whisper to the person behind them just by leaning back slightly.
And Rena Mizunashi, in just twenty minutes, she had already spoken to the uncle behind her at least four times!
Toru Amuro obviously also felt that this way of connecting was offensive, but he did not make any comments about it. Instead, he lowered his head and quickly tapped on the keyboard of the laptop he was carrying.
After a few seconds, he turned the computer screen slightly towards Olga.
"Ethan Hunt joined the organization seventeen years ago." Toru Amuro succinctly summarized the information about the uncle who was whispering with Rena Mizunashi.
Olga hummed twice as she stared at the computer screen. Ethan Hunt's entire life story was clearly displayed before her. However... resumes can be falsified, and even the name isn't certain to be real.
"However, I don't think they are necessarily undercover agents." Amuro Toru closed his laptop and expressed his own opinion. "Organization members sometimes exchange information with each other."
Olga curled her lips and said nothing, looking like she was going to stare blankly and slack off.
"Speaking of which, why would Rum give you this kind of mission, Olya?" Amuro Toru finally had the chance to ask his doubts. "Isn't this kind of mission usually done by Gin?"
Even Amuro Toru himself had rarely carried out such a mission. The action team always had a fixed personnel, but Olga grew up among a group of intelligence team members.
Speaking of which...
Amuro Toru pursed his lips. He truly hadn't known what missions Olga had been carrying out over the years. He had always assumed that, given Olga's age and her special status as a test subject, she wasn't required to carry out any missions for the time being.
At least, in the years since he became Olga's guardian, he had never seen the organization assign her any tasks.
Olga stared at Amuro Toru for several seconds. Just when Amuro Toru thought she would not answer, she suddenly smiled.
"Ah, maybe it's because Rena Mizunashi and I are both girls, so I was the one investigating her. After all, girls understand girls better~"
Toru Amuro: “…” Why don’t you say that there is a generation gap every three years?
Anyway, Amuro Toru felt that there was no way that Olga and Rena Mizunashi's train of thought could align. They were too different.
"Look, I now think what you said just now makes a lot of sense." Olga signaled Amuro Toru to look in the direction of Mizunashi Rena with her eyes.
Amuro Toru looked over with half belief and half doubt.
There was nothing unusual going on. Rena Mizunashi was probably about to leave the cafe when she accidentally dropped her handbag on the ground as she passed Ethan Hunt. Ethan Hunt bent down and helped her pick it up.
The two people said something again, but they were too far away to hear clearly.
“‘…Thank you.’ ‘It’s okay…Be more careful next time.’” Olga said these words in a stumbling voice.
Toru Amuro was stunned for a moment, then realized that she was reading the lip movements of Rena Mizunashi and Ethan Hunt.
But... when did Olga learn to read lips? No, more accurately, when did she learn Japanese? As Olga's Japanese teacher, Toru Amuro had no idea her Japanese had reached this level!
Perhaps having guessed what Amuro Toru was thinking, Olga suddenly turned around and winked at him: "I guessed it."
Toru Amuro: "..."
"It's normal for lovers to say this kind of thing in this situation, right?" Olga propped up her chin with one hand, looking very proud.
Amuro Toru: "...couple?"
Olga was surprised and said, "Why, didn't you see it? Rena Mizunashi and Ethan Hunt are obviously a couple. Look at their eyes!"
Toru Amuro: "..."
Amuro Toru looked through the car's windshield again, and then he felt that either Olga's eyes were damaged or his eyes were damaged.
Olga looked so disappointed that she almost wanted to climb onto the front console and point it out to him. Fortunately, Amuro Toru stopped her from doing this dangerous thing. He pushed Olga into the passenger seat and rebuckled her seatbelt.
"You really didn't notice?" Perhaps out of surprise, Olga couldn't help but raise her voice. "Look at the atmosphere between the two of them! How could normal people be like that? They must be having an affair!"
Toru Amuro: "..."
Seeing Olga's expectant look, he had to look towards Rena Mizunashi again.
"Rather than a couple, they're more like a parent and child?"
Although Rena Mizunashi and Ethan Hunt do seem to be closer than ordinary colleagues who are not familiar with each other, this relationship does not look like that of a couple at all.
Anyway, Toru Amuro really can't see any ambiguous relationship between Rena Mizunashi and Ethan Hunt.
Olga hummed twice again, but Toru Amuro couldn't hear what she was mumbling.
It wasn't until the two of them sat in the car and watched Mizunashi Rena leave the cafe that Olga crossed her arms and said sullenly—
