"Okay, let's end this matter here."
While they were talking, Hoshino Aoi didn't say anything. She just lowered her head and fiddled with her cell phone. She didn't look up until all three of them were silent.
It seemed that they had stopped arguing at some point and turned to look at her with sparkling eyes, as if to see what she thought.
Seeing this, Hoshino Aoi raised her eyebrows and made a 'pause' gesture, indicating that they should end the topic here. She didn't want to know who among the three of them had more problems and who had fewer.
This attitude also made Akai Shuichi's eyes flash, and he asked tentatively:
"If I understand correctly, this mission is supposed to test our position, right?"
So is it really okay for you to be passive and lazy like this?
However, Hoshino Aoi said that these are minor issues and there is no need to pay attention to those details.
Seeing this, Akai Shuichi shrugged.
"Now that you say that..."
So what else could he say?
"Anyway, there shouldn't be anything for us to do later, right? In that case, I'll be heading back first."
Amuro Toru also waved his phone and gestured to Hoshino Aoi:
"Vermouth just contacted me and said there's a mission that needs my help, so if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."
Hearing this, Hoshino Aoi raised her eyebrows:
"When did you become so familiar with Vermouth? You even exchanged contact information with her without telling me."
To someone who didn't know what was going on, Hoshino Aoi's words sounded quite ambiguous, as if there was some special relationship between the two of them. However, to Toru Amuro, it just became an ordinary question mixed with a hint of curiosity.
but……
He shrugged.
"I didn't contact her secretly without your knowledge."
Seeing that Hoshino Aoi didn't say anything and just looked at him straight, her obsidian eyes were calm, yet full of concentration.
He could see his own reflection in her eyes, and he could see nothing else in them except himself.
This made him unable to help but explain:
"Really? Before you asked me, I always thought you gave her my phone number, but now it seems that she must have found it out herself, right?"
Hearing this, Hoshino Aoi looked away.
"possible."
She said casually:
"It seems like you have caught her eye, but that's also..."
As if she had thought of something interesting, Aoi Hoshino's eyebrows curved suddenly and she laughed:
"Intelligence personnel have always been a scarce talent in the organization, so it's not surprising that she would take a fancy to you."
At this point, she raised her chin towards Amuro Toru and gestured:
"In that case, then go find Vermouth. After all, we've been teammates twice, so let me warn you. Vermouth isn't as good-tempered as I am. That woman has always been a believer in mysticism. Often, she calls you a teammate, but in reality, you're just there to help her navigate the minefields. That's why many people don't want to be on the same team with her. If you're really assigned to be her teammate, you can only pray that you're more thoughtful, otherwise you might be abandoned by her at any time and become a scapegoat for no apparent reason."
"Is that so... Thank you very much then."
Amuro Toru was stunned for a moment, but soon, he curved his eyebrows and said to Hoshino Aoi with a smile:
"I will try to live longer under her control."
Hoshino Aoi remained silent.
As for Akai Shuichi and Morofushi Kagemitsu...
She looked at the two people in front of her and blinked.
"You guys should go back first. Oh, right, Scotland..."
As if she suddenly thought of something, she turned her head and looked at Zhu Fu Jingguang:
"You'll be with me for now. We have a mission that needs to be completed by the two of us. As for Rye... you can go back and wait for notification. But since the Bourbon and Scotland locations have already been decided, I guess your arrangements will be announced soon."
As she spoke, her fingers unconsciously rubbed the edge of the phone case. Seeing this, Shuichi Akai and Kagemitsu Morobushi immediately understood what she meant.
As the winner of this mission, Bourbon has already received preliminary recognition from the organization, so as an intelligence officer, he was directly taken over by the intelligence team.
Once he completes his observation period at Vermouth's hands, he will be able to truly come into contact with the secrets of the Black Organization.
As for the two of them...
Shuichi Akai glanced obscurely at 'Scotland' beside him.
It seems that this game, on the surface, is 2v2, but in reality it is 1v3...
And he is the '1' among them.
In other words, he is the only loser in this game.
Thinking of this, although Akai Shuichi's expression did not change, he secretly snorted in his heart.
"In that case, I'll be leaving first."
He carried the modified violin case on his back and turned to leave this troublesome place.
The ends of his black hair drew an arc in the air. Hoshino Aoi held her chin with both hands, smiling and taking his turning around as his silent venting.
"Then I'll excuse myself too?"
He felt as if he saw a hint of a prank-successful smile in Hoshino Aoi's eyes, and this smile obviously evoked the memories of Morobushi Kagemitsu.
When they were still in the police academy, every time Xiao Kui succeeded in her prank, she would have a smile on her face that was a bit naughty, but not annoying, and instead made people think she was cute.
Once again, Zhu Fujingguang couldn't help but think in his heart:
"Who is she now? Is she Middles? Or is she Aoi Hoshino?"
How can we fully awaken the so-called self-awareness?
They couldn't take her to a place that might awaken her memory.
After all, they couldn't be sure whether it would be 'Middles' or 'Hoshino Aoi' who would dominate after her memory was awakened.
If it's Middles, then it would be better to maintain the status quo.
After all, the current "Middles" doesn't know their true identities.
But if we don't find a way to wake her up, then she may always be like this, and the so-called self-awareness can only be suppressed in the deepest part of her mind forever. As time goes by, no one knows whether that self-awareness will disappear or become more obvious.
just in case……
Thinking of that possibility, Zhu Fu Jingguang felt a slight chill on his back.
Hoshino Aoi, however, didn't seem to notice anything at all, and said to him with a smile:
"I asked someone to book a room for you next door, so we can leave together tomorrow."
