"Gin, have you thought about what to say?" In the dim base room, there were several figures standing or sitting.
Zhufu Jingguang had already removed his disguise by this time, and his eyes were narrowed deliberately, making him look particularly fierce.
Gin, who was being looked at by him, held a cigarette in his hand and said coldly: "What do I need to say?"
"Why did you go to see A without permission that day, and when did you prepare the medicine?" Zhu Fu Jingguang said coldly, "I think you and Vermode need to explain."
The blonde girl who was sitting beside him with her legs crossed suppressed her smile for a rare moment. She frowned, unable to understand why this had happened.
"A was awake the whole time?" she said. "That's incredible, Yul. Did you really not notice?"
Zhufu Jingguang smiled bitterly in his heart. He was so absorbed in being entangled and cautious that he didn't notice it at first, not to mention... the enemy was in the dark and we were in the light. Songjiang Shigure was probably cooperating with him in his performance.
Instructor, instructor, your acting is so realistic.
If Song Tian hadn't come out and given him a hint at the end, he might have been arrested by his peers.
Morofushi Jingguang thought about it for a long time, and finally concluded that Matsue Shigure recognized his identity.
But he didn't tell anyone else, but deliberately arranged for Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara to come and "arrest" him.
Otherwise, Zhu Fu Jingguang could not explain why these two guys from the explosive disposal team were mixed up with the police.
It seems that after the review period at the public security department is over, he will have to contact Instructor Songjiang in addition to Zero.
No - I'd better tell Instructor Songjiang first. At least, other people don't need to know the details of the "acting process" during this week.
Zhu Fu Jingguang felt like digging his toes into the ground just thinking about it, but when he recalled how calm he was during the rain in Songjiang, he couldn't help but admire him.
He didn't know it anyway. It was amazing that Instructor Songjiang was able to devote himself so wholeheartedly even though he knew the whole process.
This is the attitude he should learn!
But on the surface, Morobushi Kagemitsu looked at the silver-haired killer and began to blame: "After all, someone said it was foolproof - now think about it, the so-called memory-erasing drug is actually just your statement to the organization, right?"
Gin's brows were tightly knitted together.
The meeting was a coincidence. He took the drug from the car and intended to use it to erase Songjiang Shigure's memory of meeting him.
The subsequent appearance of Yule and the subsequent chain reactions were beyond Gin's expectations.
But Songjiang Shigure's memory was not erased, and he even secretly prepared a plan to turn the tables.
If it weren't for Yuer Minrui, he would have been trapped by the police by now.
The memory was not erased, probably because the syringe was broken by Matsue Shigure at the last moment, which can be explained.
Gin was thinking about another problem.
——Was our initial meeting really just a coincidence?
In the rain, a blond young man with extremely poor eyesight coincidentally appeared in front of him when he had just finished his task and was resting, and naturally turned into an empty alley to welcome his game.
The more Gin thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. He began to wonder if there was a mole in the organization who revealed his whereabouts.
Understand his thoughts and whereabouts... vodka?
Before the three of them finished arguing with each other, the gentleman arrived.
*****
In the evening, after being punished, Gin walked out of the base with a smell of blood on his body. He smoked a cigarette, and the spicy taste relieved the pain very well.
The younger brother wearing sunglasses stood beside the car as upright as ever, and called out "Big Brother" when he approached.
"Vodka." Gin exhaled smoke slowly, "I remember you talked to A before."
Vodka was stunned for a moment, then turned angry: "Yes, it happened a few times, but that guy always thought I was just a driver!!"
He is a code member of the organization and Gin's most trusted helper, but he only leaves others with the simple impression of "being able to drive".
How can this be possible!
Gin didn't say anything. He was smoking gently one second, and the next second he had his pistol pointed at Vodka's forehead.
The latter was still cursing when he suddenly stopped talking and raised his hand tremblingly and shouted, "Big Brother...?"
Gin looked at him coldly: "After completing the mission last Wednesday, you disappeared for ten minutes. Why?"
Vodka's face almost turned pale with fright. He quickly recalled what happened last Wednesday and suddenly hesitant to speak.
"I, I..." But facing the black muzzle of the gun, Vodka still spoke, but his voice became smaller and smaller.
"At that time, I was rushing around Ms. Yoko Nono, and I saw that there was still enough time, so I went to the nearby newsstand and bought a few copies."
"Okino Yoko?" Gin frowned, "Who is that?"
Vodka whispered: "My idol, she filmed a show called Good Morning 7: Okino Yoko's Four-Minute Cooking Time, it was great!! Big brother, I put the peripherals at home, if you want to see it I can go get it now!"
Gin: “?”
Seeing that Gin didn't pursue the matter, Vodka's usually rusty little brain worked quickly: "Brother, what do you mean by suddenly mentioning A just now? Didn't that guy already get busted?"
Gin put the pistol back indifferently. He would investigate Vodka's whereabouts again. This was not the most important thing right now.
This time Yul's plan was exposed, which not only revealed that the power behind Matsue Shigure was the Japanese Public Security Bureau, but also showed that the influence of "Akabane Subaru" on him was not as great as everyone thought.
Then, the original deployment on the "Victory Goddess" would have to be changed.
The public security department so blatantly exposed Matsue Shigure, a traitor who had defected from the organization and was still alive. This was nothing but an attempt to touch the bottom line of the organization, something the boss absolutely could not tolerate.
Just like what happened with Akai Shuichi before, no matter what, he had to find a chance to kill Matsue Shigure.
Gin was originally the one in charge of the mission, but because of this failure, the boss chose to give Rum the same opportunity.
"After all, he was a tool that escaped from my hands." Rum's cold voice from the communication also carried obvious murderous intent, "GIN, this time we hunt fairly."
Gin did not respond to him at the time, but just left coldly and accepted the punishment.
…
"He's still alive." Gin got in the car and directed Vodka, "Go to the safe house in Toriya Town."
Vodka quickly went around to the driver's seat and said in surprise, "A is not dead yet? Then when can he return to the organization?"
Looking at Gin's cold and scrutinizing eyes, Vodka's voice gradually became weaker and finally disappeared in his mouth: "... Has he been confirmed to be a traitor?"
Gin sneered: "How come I didn't know that you trusted A so much?"
Vodka shook his head and said, "Brother's judgment is definitely correct, but I still feel that there is something fishy about that mission."
Vodka refers to the incident two years ago when A intercepted the organization's signal on the ferry, causing the organization members to be ambushed by the police and almost arrested.
Before escaping, Gin eliminated the traitor on the deck.
This matter can be said to be a fact that is set in stone. Everything matches up except that A is not dead.
Not to mention that A now has the support of the Japanese public security.
Gin looked up at him: "Why do you say that?"
Vodka said, "Because the day before that mission, A told me that he was going to Yoshinoyama in Nara to see the cherry blossoms - and asked me when the driver would be free."
He scratched his head and said, "At that time, I didn't know that you guys were going to do a mission on Saturday, so I said I was free on Saturday, and A agreed at that time."
Vodka still remembers the scene at that time.
The hacker was in a good mood after being approved by the organization and allowed to go out once. He even typed fewer swear words.
He turned his wheelchair, called out to Vodka, who was running errands for Gin to get information, and stated his request in a matter-of-fact manner.
Vodka was almost pissed off by A's words "Gin's driver", but when he met those sparkling blue eyes, he still didn't refuse.
He stayed indoors every day, wearing an ugly cloak, and couldn't even walk.
No matter what, this guy looks much more pitiful than him, so just think of it as a act of kindness.
That’s what Vodka thought at the time. It just so happened that his elder brother had to go on a secret mission the next day, so he had a day off.
Then the next day, he excitedly drove the car he had maintained for a long time but never used to the base, but was turned down.
"A didn't come." Vodka felt a little aggrieved. "If he had originally planned to assist the public security in dealing with the organization, there would be no need to go out of his way to tell me about this."
At that time, no one told Vodka where A had gone. When he asked the manager, the manager just said "someone borrowed the tools." He waited outside for a whole day, but no one showed up.
Afterwards, what Vodka waited for was Gin's long-lasting depression and the conclusion that "A is a traitor and has been killed."
Vodka didn't understand. If A was really a traitor, why did he make an appointment with him to go to Nara the day before, and then get on the ship and team up with the police to betray the organization?
If it was really a collusion in advance, there was no need for A to go to the trouble of looking for him - Vodka knew very well that he was of no use!
Not to mention such an obvious operation as intercepting the signal. If it was done by A, he should be very clear that as long as Gin and others were not caught in one fell swoop, his fate would be certain to be death.
Under Gin's gaze, Vodka's voice became lower and lower: "...I just think there might be something fishy going on, but Big Brother has already said that he is a traitor, so he must be a traitor."
It's just a pity to waste such beautiful cherry blossoms.
Vodka later went to Nara for a tour, broke off a cigarette, and threw it into the sea.
Gin said coldly: "No matter what happened in the past, he is now an enemy of the organization."
He didn't tell Vodka a thing.
At the beginning of the secret mission at sea, A only needed remote assistance, but on the last day, he suddenly changed his mind and chose to board the ship.
It was precisely because of this unusual behavior that his suspicion increased.
In the last chance that Gin gave to explain himself, A said nothing and even took the initiative to meet his gun.
If he was not the one who intercepted the signal, and Akai Shuichi's defection was also questionable, then why didn't A, who was still under control and loyal to the organization at the time, make an excuse?
Gin couldn't understand what that guy was thinking.
But he didn't want to find out now.
Gin just wanted to do it himself and extinguish those deep blue eyes that were burning with the flames of revenge.
*****
"Hahaha, I'd be surprised if you could figure that out!"
Matsue Shigure was lying on the bed with his arms and legs spread out, reading a comic and laughing.
He has been looking forward to seeing Gin being punished for a long time!
What a retribution! Let Gin be cruel to him!
However...
The player looked at the firm abdominal muscles revealed when Gin was punished, and touched his belly dejectedly.
System: "Hey, you've gained weight."
Matsue Shigure: "Shut up, shut up! I'm in the atmosphere!"
System: "Scotland is an expert at raising pigs."
Matsue Shigure: "Get lost! Stop interrupting me from showing off!"
Matsue Shigure pretended to be injected with drugs, on the one hand to test Yule and the forum, and on the other hand to make the organization more suspicious of Gin after the mission failed.
As expected, Yule... ahem, or maybe it was Morobushi Kagemitsu, after the mission failed, threw all the blame on Gin and Vermouth without hesitation.
Unfortunately, these two people could only accept their mistakes and never thought that Matsue Shigure knew the organization's plan from the very beginning.
The player had a lot of fun and gave a thumbs up to Gin who was punished.
Awesome, Mr. Qin, you were so cooperative from beginning to end!
Even Vodka didn't think he was a traitor, which was something Matsue Shigure hadn't expected.
System: "He can do other things besides driving. It's really hurtful to say that."
Matsue Shigure: "What else can he do?"
The system thought for a while and asked, "Light a cigarette for Big Brother?"
Songjiang Shiyu said quietly, "Vodka probably wants to beat you now that he knows about this."
"However, they actually mentioned my death escape in the second round." Matsue Shigure smacked his lips, "I also want to see the cherry blossoms, who said this is a coincidence."
System: "So why did you agree to Bourbon?"
Songjiang Shigure said, "At that time, Scotland was not here, so there was one less person to chat with. I quarreled with people every day, and only Shirley could comfort me. It was so tiring."
Hacker Ka couldn't walk and wanted to curse people. Songjiang Shiyu felt it was a miracle that he could endure it for so long.
System: “And then?”
Matsue Shigure: "Given Bourbon's usual stern attitude towards me and his eagerness to part ways with me, it's possible that he would actively drag me into a mission, but now that his attitude towards me has softened a little, it's unlikely."
After all, the player is an old drama queen, and he can keenly sense any softening of Bourbon's attitude.
This can only be described as a natural talent.
System: “So you got on?”
Songjiang Shiyu said calmly: "Yes, I don't want to play with this useless ID card any longer, but I can't die if I stay at home every day.
If suicide wasn't so OOC and not in line with my professional qualities as an actor, I would have died halfway through the film."
"Bourbon gave me this opportunity, and I'm eager to thank him, so it's normal to put the pigeon in vodka."
Only someone like Songjiang Shigure can talk about seeking death in such a cheerful way.
It was a pity for Vodka as he waited the whole day for nothing and didn't even get to see the concert.
The system complained: "...scumbag!"
Songjiang Shigure thinks he is not a scumbag.
He retorted: "If I hadn't taken the blame in the end, then the other members of the organization would have been investigated. What if Bourbon was exposed? I'm helping a lot!"
At that time, Matsue Shigure didn't know that Bourbon was Furuya Rei, his student, so he didn't think too much about it and just tore up the card and escaped.
But thinking about it now, he couldn't help but feel lucky that he took the blame, at least it made the students more serious.
The system pondered: "So why did Bourbon attack you?"
Songjiang Shiyu touched his chin and said solemnly: "This boy is so terrifying, we must not let him stay!"
System: “???”
Matsue Shigure folded his hands: "There is no other way. I must find a chance to defeat such a powerful enemy."
It just so happened that at that time Matsue Shigure helped Akai Shuichi and sold a broken ribbon. It would be strange if Bourbon didn't catch it.
This is a very reasonable thing to do from the standpoints of both parties, and considering the ultimate goal, it is a win-win situation for both parties.
In the end, Matsue Shigure was even too lazy to act and nag at Gin. When the latter threatened to shoot him, he twisted his body and forced himself to take the bullet.
But at that time, he didn't notice whether Bourbon was there...
Of course, after the worlds merged and the characters regained their memories, Matsue Shigure was overjoyed and then sad.
Why was he so afraid of being exposed in the beginning? In the end, his identity was exposed. Isn't it a tragedy that infected two people?
The result is now that all kinds of problems have come to the door and cannot be covered up.
The organization wants to get rid of him, it is impossible for Songjiang Shigure not to fight back.
The Trojan horse he installed into the organization's program this time was aimed at Rum.
After all, Rum was the leader of the organization's intelligence unit and had more contact with "A".
By then, Matsue Shigure will try to adjust his strategy according to the organization's plan to see if he can catch Rum.
As for Amuro Toru——
The system said coldly: "If Amuro Toru knew this, we would be doomed."
Matsue Shigure had a splitting headache: "Of course, let Amuro Toru know that he was such a great instructor, but now he has become the A in the organization who quarrels with him every day? And in the end, he chose to take the blame because he wanted to tear up the card (die)?"
Forget it, he should just stay like that!
We will go find Shuichi Akai and the others later. We must keep A's identity a secret!
Anyway, hacking skills can be pushed to those who learn them later. As long as you don't cut the [Hacker] card in front of Toru Amuro, there shouldn't be too many problems.
******
On the other side, the blond policeman who had fallen asleep on the table due to excessive fatigue suddenly raised his head and took a few deep breaths.
Toru Amuro looked at the gradually darkening sky, rubbing his temples while flipping through the text messages on his phone.
When he saw that Yule was not caught, he couldn't help but reveal a somewhat disappointed expression. After learning that Songjiang Shigure was safe and sound, his brows relaxed a little.
The report was quite long, so Toru Amuro took out a piece of paper and listed the key points on it, but soon his pen tip left an ink stain on the white paper.
"Blue eyes, brown hair." This color combination was too familiar, and he murmured subconsciously, "Hiro..."
His childhood friend, who was also an undercover agent in the organization, was gentle but sensitive, but he was exposed to mistakes that were not his.
Even now, Toru Amuro cannot accept this reality. He often dreams of Morobushi Kagemitsu, who plays the bass and gently teases him.
And the person who caused him to be exposed...A.
Amuro Toru slowly closed his eyes and let out a breath.
He just had a dream, in which he dreamed about how he avenged Zhu Fu Jingguang.
But for some reason, Toru Amuro didn't feel any pleasure at all, instead he felt extremely suffocated.
Two years ago, the organization reached a cooperation with foreign terrorist forces and wanted to assassinate a visiting foreign leader on a ferry in Japan.
As an undercover agent of Bourbon, Toru Amuro got the information and quickly arranged for the public security to counterattack. They not only had to find a way to protect the leader, but also had to capture as many members of the organization as possible.
Relying on the authority assigned to him by Rum, Amuro Toru learned that A would also remotely assist the organization in completing the assassination mission.
Therefore, he went to find A the night before boarding the ferry, and asked A to board the ferry with him, saying that he had the right to use him and hoped that he would assist in the mission on site.
At that time, Toru Amuro was even prepared to provoke A and quarrel with him.
It can be said that ever since "Scotland" was executed, there has never been a peaceful day between him and A.
Toru Amuro has never made a direct accusation, and A has never directly admitted it either.
But I don't know if A also felt a little regretful, because when he mentioned Scotland, Toru Amuro could always see doubt in his eyes.
Toru Amuro still decided to take action.
One is to avenge Morobuchi Kagemitsu, and the other is to reduce the power of the organization.
——A’s skills made everyone uneasy.
As usual, the young man, hiding himself under a hood and a mask, stared at him with cobalt blue eyes, spewing sharp and sarcastic remarks, completely ignoring his request.
Bourbon took a few steps closer, almost squatting next to the man's wheelchair, his eyes parallel to his.
The hacker was obviously startled by his action. Not only did he become speechless for a moment, he grabbed his cloak with both hands, and only his vigilant eyes were visible from under his messy bangs.
It looks like a chestnut ball with its hair blown up, and it has a hole in it, revealing the chestnut inside.
After all, Bourbon was not a hard-hearted man, and he was prepared to be scolded by A without fighting back.
But when he repeated his request, A spoke lightly and said "OK" directly.
Bourbon looked at him in surprise.
"Why are you looking at me?" The hot-tempered hacker lowered his tone again, and said irritably, "Let's make it clear that you don't bother me after you get on the boat. I want to enjoy the scenery and bask in the sun."
Bourbon: “…Okay.”
"Also, pick me up tomorrow morning. Remember to drive a convertible. I want to go for a ride!"
"I'll confirm the exact time later."
"What the hell, I'll be out all day tomorrow."
Bourbon was a little surprised, thinking that Rum had arranged the task in advance. He pretended to suppress his impatience and replied, "I know."
——I have no intention of engaging in a quarrel with A.
A looked at him in surprise: "Have you changed your personality? Have you become dumb? Bourbon, have you done something shameful and want me to clean it up? Look at the dark circles under your eyes. Have you been having kidney problems recently——"
Bourbon had a cross on his forehead and interrupted his trash talk: "If you keep talking nonsense, I will take off your mask!"
"I'm not fucking going!"
"Can you say that again?"
A wanted to say more, but Bourbon simply stood up, reached out his hand, and covered his mouth through the mask.
The hacker's eyes were filled with fear for a moment, but before Bourbon could say anything, the knife in A's sleeve cut a hole in his palm.
The latter broke free from Bourbon's hand and grabbed his cloak again, but there was a streak of blood on the originally gray mask, falling on the position of his lips.
"Get the hell out of here!" A gritted his teeth and said, "Before I change my mind!"
Bourbon shook his hands regretfully. He really wanted to know what A looked like under the mask. He was just teasing her just now.
But there is no need to rush. As long as tomorrow's plan succeeds, not only will his identity not be exposed, but the police will also be able to capture the organization members alive.
Bourbon has made various preparations based on A's reaction. No matter what, he can put the blame of "betraying the organization" on him.
It will be easy to watch it when you want to.
However, even he did not expect that Gin would be able to shoot so decisively after discovering the public security ambush, and A...
He didn't say a word to explain himself, nor did he look at Bourbon. He didn't waste any time to give the police time to act, and he went straight into the face of the bullet.
It was as if he just came to the boat for a walk and wanted to die.
