While Yuzuru and Akemi were being affectionate in the living room, Judy, as if she had lost her soul, drove away from the villa in a daze.
After turning a corner and completely losing sight of Yuzuru Hanyu's villa, the bewildered expression on Judy's face vanished instantly, as if it had never existed.
Her eyes turned cold, she gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands, and floored the accelerator.
With the roar of the engine, the car sped away like an arrow.
She skillfully steered the car with one hand, while with the other she pulled an earpiece from the glove compartment and put it to her ear, saying in a low voice, "James, mission failed. The forces behind the target are likely more terrifying than we imagined!"
James, who had clearly been waiting by the phone for Judy's message, immediately replied, "Roger that. Get back as soon as possible, making sure there are no tails around. We'll let you know when you get any news!"
"clear!"
After hanging up the call, Judy drove with a mocking smile on her lips.
Did that student and that silly woman really think they had successfully defeated her?
What a joke! She's a top-tier FBI agent, how could she not even handle this little setback!
The reason she chose to leave was simply because she knew in her heart that she absolutely could not continue carrying out the mission today.
Things were going very wrong, and she couldn't find a reason to stay any longer.
"This absolutely cannot be explained by talent alone..."
Judy was quite certain that Hanyu Nan's performance in class yesterday was his true level at the time.
Human language may lie, but accents are hard to fake!
In just one night, Yuzuru Hanyu was able to display two completely different accents, which cannot be explained by pretending to be weak while actually being strong.
What exactly is the reason?
During the brief pause while waiting at the traffic light, Judy's long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the steering wheel.
This is one of her unique habits; whenever she falls into deep thought, she likes to tap on something to help herself think.
Whether it's banging on a table, a gun, or hitting someone's head, these are all methods she frequently uses.
…………
Inside the FBI's base.
Shuichi Akai sat on the sofa, his eyes fixed on the door.
Upon hearing the doorknob turn, he immediately sprang up from the sofa and rushed towards the door.
As the door opened, Shuichi Akai saw Jodie walk in and eagerly asked, "How did it go? Did you find any clues about Akemi? Was she threatened?"
Hearing Shuichi Akai's attitude, so different from when she left that morning, made Judy feel a little annoyed.
"Akami! Akami! Is she the only one you see?"
Do you really think I'm some kind of lapdog you can summon and dismiss at will?
"I……"
Shuichi Akai was speechless for a moment, unsure how to respond.
What's going on?
The sycophant who always followed him around and obeyed his every word actually dared to speak loudly to him.
For a moment, the two of them stood facing each other at the door.
Shuichi Akai, who always had a cool and aloof expression, was now filled with disbelief.
Jodie, who always greeted Shuichi Akai with a smile, now had a cold expression, her eyes filled with anger and disappointment.
She didn't know why, but ever since leaving Yuzuru's house, she felt inexplicably angry whenever she thought of how incredibly gentle Yuzuru was with Miyano Akemi.
Why is everyone so nice to her?
Even Xiuyi couldn't forget her, and she always seemed impatient with him. Why should she?
Am I some worthless thing?
Am I really so unworthy of being treated well?
At home, Nanami Hanyu had no idea that his intimate interactions with Akemi in front of Judy would cause such a drastic change in Judy.
He went straight from the Joker to Superman.
Why not Batman?
That's because Batman is Shuichi Akai, who's in charge of fighting the Joker, while Superman is the one who can beat Batman up.
Seeing the awkward atmosphere between his two subordinates, James quickly stepped in to smooth things over, "Ahem, it's good that you're back safe and sound. Judy, can you tell us what happened?"
"Hmph!" Judy snorted, took a miniature camera from her collar, and tossed it to James. "Nothing to say, just see for yourselves!"
After James took it, he smiled awkwardly. He was caught in the middle of his two key players arguing, which put him in a difficult position.
Shuichi Akai, on the other hand, was completely different. His eyes were fixed on the camera in James's hand, as if he wanted to pounce on it and snatch it away.
Because it contained information about Akemi, whom he longed for day and night.
"Let's see what's inside!" Shuichi Akai said impatiently.
“Okay!” James nodded, then walked to the computer with Shuichi Akai and pulled up the content from the webcam.
After watching what happened at Yuzuru Hanyu's villa that day, Shuichi Akai's face was terribly gloomy. His attention was entirely focused on Akemi, who appeared unusually intimate with Yuzuru Hanyu in the video.
Watching their intimate interaction, Shuichi Akai was filled with anger and resentment.
He felt like a clown, being fooled.
He always believed that Akemi was forced by Hanyu Nan, and that she only hated Hanyu Nan, not loved him.
As a result, reality gave him a heavy slap in the face.
Compared to the irrational Shuichi Akai, James, as the team leader, remained calm and rational. He looked at the video in front of him with thoughtful and vigilant eyes: "It seems that our target this time is not simple!"
“Yes!” Judy, who had been tapping the table the whole time, nodded. “There must be a huge force behind the target, and the target must be an important figure in that force.”
As she spoke, Judy glanced at Shuichi Akai and continued her analysis: "The fact that someone would give such an item, which can make someone fluent in various languages overnight, to their own maid without hesitation is enough to prove their high status and powerful background."
She didn't believe what Yuzuru Nan had to say about family talent. "Are you related to Miyano Akemi?"
You just have family talent!
James agreed with Judy's point of view, stood up, and said in a serious tone, "I will immediately notify headquarters and have them try to dig deeper into the target." After saying that, he turned and left, leaving the others to continue thinking.
After James left, only Shuichi Akai, whose expression was uncertain, and Judy, who was sitting to the side and constantly tapping on the table, remained in the room.
