After dinner, Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda were in a good mood to see their long-missing friends. Miyazaki Ren was walking while playing with his phone. He hacked into the bar's surveillance, captured the clip of Rum being caught by his wig, and sent it to Vermouth and Gin.
The two generous local tycoons were in a good mood, which allowed him to quickly receive two large transfers. With the small amount of money in his pocket, Miyazaki Ren was humming a song while walking.
Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji whispered, "It turns out that Miyazaki and Zero have such a good relationship. They were so happy that they started singing when they met."
Hagiwara Kenji also sighed, "Yeah, I didn't notice it in the store just now, and he never mentioned it normally. I didn't expect that he was always so worried in his heart. Miyazaki just loves to hide his emotions too much."
The next morning, before Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda got up, Miyazaki Ren left a note saying she was going out for a walk, and then went to meet Rum with the USB drive containing the data.
The meeting place was Rum's safe house in Rio de Janeiro. Besides the two of them, there was also a woman with heterochromatic eyes.
"Mr. Rum." Miyazaki Ren seriously played the role of a loyal subordinate. He didn't even pay any attention to this woman until Rum introduced her.
Rum was very pleased with his interest and took the initiative to introduce him, "This is my new subordinate, Curacao, who has an absolutely photographic memory."
"She must have been blessed to be able to be with Mr. Rum all the time." Miyazaki Ren showed a jealous look as he handed over the USB drive. "Mr. Rum, this is Pisk's information and the information of some senior police officials. I was afraid it would be unsafe to send it directly, so I put it all in here."
"Curaçao." Rum called the woman's name.
"Yes, Lord Rum." Curacao took the USB drive. Miyazaki Ren glared at her again. She frowned but did not stop. She inserted the USB drive into the computer and quickly read the files. "I have memorized it, Lord Rum."
"Handle cleanly."
"Yes." As Curacao finished speaking, the data in the USB drive was deleted completely.
"Mr. Rum." Miyazaki Ren hesitated, "Can she really remember everything without making any mistakes?"
"Of course." Rum was very proud. "I picked her out of many talented people at the training base. I can't go wrong with her."
"Mr. Rum has a keen eye and is wise and powerful."
Miyazaki Ren's words seemed to be praising Rum, but in fact, he was expressing his absolute trust in Rum. He didn't trust Curacao, but he trusted Rum, so as long as Rum was sure of something, he would believe it, and he thought everything Rum did was right.
Rum patted his shoulder with relief. Curacao was still too dull. He was not as considerate as Brandy. Thinking about how Brandy risked being exposed and his life to save him last night, he felt excited.
All the subordinates of that gentleman came here by coercion and temptation. Rum thought of Vermouth, Gin, and himself, all of them were traitors. That gentleman was also a little pitiful. Although he had many subordinates, none of them was as loyal as Brandy, who wanted to do what the leader wanted. Only he had such charm. Who else could be the boss of the organization but him?
"Curaçao, being with Mr. Rum is a blessing you have earned over many lifetimes. You must fulfill your duties and responsibilities. Not only must you complete the mission, but you must also take good care of Mr. Rum's health. The temperature in Brazil is high, so you must remember to take care of Mr. Rum..."
Curacao is aloof and quiet by nature. Her super memory not only makes her valued by Rum, but also brings her endless pain. Every sad memory and every pain she suffers seems to have just happened in her mind, which makes her become what she is now.
After she was chosen by Rum, she often heard Rum praising Brandy. The image of Brandy in her mind was more like gin. She didn't expect that he would have such great hostility towards her when they first met. Now she saw that he was a real bootlicker. She could only perfunctorily say absentmindedly, "Okay, I remember. Yeah, I'll pay attention..."
When Rum saw this scene, he once again admired Brandy's loyalty. If his funds had not been reduced after arriving in Brazil, he would have wanted to raise Brandy's salary.
Miyazaki Ren had stopped talking, and Rum didn't say anything. It seemed that Rum had become much poorer after arriving in Brazil. A poor man was not worthy of my flattery. He immediately lost interest in talking further, and pretended to give Curacao some instructions before leaving in a hurry.
Before leaving, he did not forget to dig a hole. Such a big treasure as Curacao cannot be enjoyed by Rum alone.
He whispered to Rum, "Of course I believe in Mr. Rum's judgment, but I still need to confirm who she is loyal to. It's not that I'm jealous of her, but I don't want Mr. Rum to put his trust in her in the wrong place."
"I promoted her, don't worry." Rum was still very confident in his own vision.
Miyazaki Ren raised her eyebrows and said nothing. When she returned in the afternoon, she packed up the information in the USB drive and sent it to the boss of the winery. Then she continued to have fun in Rio de Janeiro with Hagiwara Kenji, Matsuda Jinpei and others.
On his last day in Brazil, he received another message from Rum.
At this time, Rum's face was full of gloom. Miyazaki Ren reminded him that although he said he believed in Curacao, he was suspicious by nature, so he still went to check.
Just as Brandy expected, Curacao was untrustworthy. He found out that Curacao had recently sent an email, and the recipient's IP address was from Tottori Prefecture, Japan, which was a common cover used by the boss.
Unsure of how much the boss knew, he urgently called in Miyazaki Ren, the only subordinate who could be sure to be loyal to him, "Brandy, Curacao is the boss's man."
Rum told Miyazaki Ren in detail how he discovered the abnormality in Curacao. He tends to talk a lot when he is nervous, and the amount of talk he is doing now is enough to show how panicked Rum is at the moment.
"That gentleman is very shrewd, while Mr. Rum treats people with sincerity. Fortunately, you, sir, have a keen eye and discovered it in time." Miyazaki Ren first put the blame on Rum. There must be no problem with the leader's vision, but the opponent was too strong. We lost because we had too good a character.
Sure enough, when Rum heard this, his face looked much better. It was not because he had bad vision, but because his boss was too cunning and he was too sincere.
"Mr. Rum is very busy, and that gentleman is also very busy. Mr. Rum is just considerate and compiled all the information before sending it to that gentleman."
Rum slapped his forehead. He was anxious. What Brandy said was absolutely right.
I am in charge of intelligence, and Brandy is a member of the intelligence team. Is it wrong for him to report intelligence to me? Yes. I just arrived in Brazil recently, and I am busy with things. I am afraid of disturbing my boss, so I summarized the intelligence before sending it. Is it wrong for it to be two days later than Curacao? Yes.
Rum, who had figured it out, smiled happily. The people in the training base were unreliable, and only people like Brandy who were recruited and trained could be reused. For example, the mixed-race intelligence dealer was very good and he must be recruited under his command.
Seeing such a thoughtful Brandy, Rum gritted his teeth and tried to pretend to be calm and nonchalant. "Brandy, you did a good job. Now that you are in Brazil, relax. I have transferred some money to you. Have fun."
Miyazaki Ren was immediately overjoyed. Rum was a very easy-going person. Even if he had no money, he would still squeeze out money to give him a red envelope. What a good boss!
After returning, he immediately sent a text message to the boss of the winery, briefly telling him that he had alienated the trust between Rum and his right-hand man. He didn't mention the specific method, and it seemed like he just mentioned it casually.
The boss of the winery, who was wearing a mask and breathing oxygen, couldn't help but admire Brandy's loyalty and usefulness. He praised Bermode next to him, "Brandy is a good subordinate."
Vermouth looked at this aging relative and recalled the embarrassing photo of rum that Miyazaki Ren sent him. He sneered in his heart and neither agreed nor spoke for Miyazaki Ren.
The boss of the winery was very satisfied with her attitude and told his secretary, "Transfer one million dollars to Brandy's account and let him keep working hard."
Miyazaki Ren, who was boarding the plane, received a transfer text message. After comparing Rum's 10 million yen with the boss's 1 million US dollars, she turned to the boss without hesitation. "Rum, it's not that I'm not loyal enough, it's just that the money you have is not enough."
.....
After returning to Japan, Miyazaki Ren packed up her things and started working again, she became busy again.
In the cafeteria of the Metropolitan Police Department, Kenji Hagiwara, Jinpei Matsuda, Ginzo Nakamori and Ren Miyazaki were sitting at the same table.
"Miyazaki, haven't you managed to pry open Toyama Taro's mouth yet?" Jinpei Matsuda asked curiously, looking at the bruises under Miyazaki Ren and Nakamori Ginzo's eyes.
Miyazaki Ren nodded weakly. He was not good at interrogation. "He is so confident that he won't say anything. Sigh."
Taro Toyama is the full name of Councillor Toyama. It is worth mentioning that he is the brother of the criminal who was caught by Mizuo Sosuke in the barbecue house. Their father, Morimasa Toyama, is in a high position of power. Taro Toyama refused to cooperate and refused to speak, which put the case into a stagnation period.
Everyone in the Metropolitan Police Department had heard about Councillor Toyama's affairs. Hagiwara Kenji recalled the recent rumors and said, "I heard that another official came to visit Superintendent Tenjing today?"
Nakamori Ginzo has been in charge of receiving the high-ranking officials who are now incorruptible these past two days, and he feels quite resentful. "Well, but Superintendent Tianjing has a bad temper and won't pay any attention to them. The other police officers don't like dealing with them either, so they let me receive them all. I'm so annoyed by those parasites. But today, Superintendent Tianjing received one for the first time."
Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda recalled the arrogant look of the officials they met before, and their sympathy for Ginzo Nakamori increased dramatically. They served him food and said, "Inspector Nakamori, you have worked hard. Eat more."
Miyazaki Ren swallowed the food in his mouth. He naturally knew what the second vest had done. "It should be not long before Soyama Taro speaks up. If it continues to drag on, even if the term is changed, his backer should be the most anxious."
At this time, a news report was interrupted on the TV in the cafeteria. It was a news report of Morimasa Toyama, a senior official of the Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, bowing to apologize. His hair was gray, and he was wearing a well-fitting suit. His face was solemn, but tears were streaming down his face unconsciously. He told the people about his failure as a father. He was busy with work and focused on the people, neglecting his children's education, which led to their making such a big mistake.
Miyazaki Ren lost his appetite instantly. He gave the remaining fried pork chop on his plate to Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinpei, "I'm full."
Hagiwara Kenji and Matsuda Jinpei looked at the red fried pork cutlet sprinkled with sauce, and bad memories came to their minds, "Miyazaki, what's wrong with you? You only eat this much."
"Nothing." Miyazaki Ren put away the food tray and pushed Nakamori Ginzo beside him, "Inspector Nakamori, Toyama Taro should be confessing. Let's go back quickly."
Ginzo Nakamori had been concentrating on his food and had not been paying attention to the cafeteria news, so he was a little confused, but he still put away his plate and left in a hurry with Miyazaki Ren.
Neither Matsuda Jinpei nor Hagiwara Kenji was the type to waste food, and they looked at each other in bewilderment at the fried pork cutlets on their plates.
"Do you want to eat? Hagi?" Jinpei Matsuda asked hesitantly.
Hagiwara Kenji gritted his teeth and said, "Eat..."
The two of them took a bite cautiously, and suddenly, their eyes widened. It was ketchup!
.....
"Taro Toyama, aren't you going to confess yet?" Miyazaki Ren asked, staring at Taro Toyama with sharp eyes.
Taro Toyama has been feeling uneasy since he learned about his father's apology at noon, but he still holds on to a glimmer of hope and refuses to speak.
Nakamori Ginzo poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Toyama Taro. "Toyama Taro, it's been six hours since your father apologized, but no one has come to see you. Don't you understand? Confess now, and I will consider it as surrendering for your cooperation. If you confess more, it will be a meritorious recommendation."
In fact, Toyama Morimasa did send someone to visit Toyama Taro, after all, it was just a temporary delaying tactic. He thought that everything had been communicated, but he didn't know that the person he sent had been turned and had never met Toyama Taro, so there was naturally no such thing as communication.
Taro Toyama looked haggard. He covered his ears with his hands and lowered his head helplessly.
"What a poor person! I remember that Toyama Morimasa had a mistress and gave birth to a son. It is said that the son was very smart and he loved him very much." Miyazaki Ren played with her nails and said casually.
When Toyama Taro heard this, he was stimulated and roared like crazy, "That bastard! I will never allow him to enter our house. I confess..."
Taro Toyama was very frank. He not only talked about how he bribed and accepted bribes, as well as the various bribery channels, but also revealed some of the dirty secrets of Toyama Morimasa's backer, Daigo Shindo. "... Daigo Shindo is not a good guy either. Although I have no evidence, I saw him having dinner with the old man. It seemed that they were conducting secret transactions. He must have accepted bribes."
When Miyazaki Ren heard the name, the pen in his hand couldn't help but break, and Nakamori Ginzo beside him also had a bad look on his face.
After Toyama Taro finished explaining everything, Nakamori Ginzo sorted out the information and asked curiously, "Miyazaki, how did you know that Toyama Morimasa had a mistress?"
Miyazaki Ren yawned and said, "I guess. With the abilities of these two brothers, how could Toyama Morimasa feel comfortable leaving his family property to these two sons? Moreover, the character of the sons can reflect the father to a certain extent. The possibility that Toyama Morimasa has a concubine is as high as 90%. I will try to deceive him."
"Well done." Nakamori Ginzo couldn't help but give a thumbs up. "Go home and have a good rest this weekend. We'll be busy with the economic conference next week. This is the focus of the first half of the year. We must not make any mistakes. Do you understand?"
The February economic conference was exactly the task assigned by the boss of the laboratory brewery. If she completed it well this time, she would get a lot of bonus and it would not be impossible to make further progress. Thinking of this, Miyazaki Ren's unhappiness caused by Shindo Daigo disappeared a lot. The only way to relieve her worries was to get promoted and get rich.
