Chapter 40
Chapter 40
As long as a member has a code name, he or she will rarely be called by name within the organization.
Except for Yashi, of course. He doesn't need others to call him Apple Cider to remind him who he is now. He has always had a clear understanding of himself and does his job well. As long as he remembers who he is, he won't make mistakes.
As for calling him by his name, it’s nothing. In the eyes of others, the name “Yashiro” may be more of a pseudonym than cider.
For example, when Gin mentioned Shirley, whom they were going to meet now, he just called her "Sherry" from beginning to end, instead of her real name Miyano Shiho.
Miyano Shiho's parents were also members of the organization, but after her parents passed away, everything about her was left to Gin. Her studies and future development, including what she would do when she returned to the organization, were all taken care of by Gin, who was not her biological sister.
Yashiro thought of himself. Although it was an accident that he was picked up by Gin, the boss also arranged for him to continue to follow Gin later, still in the subtle identity of Gin's younger brother.
However, anyone with eyes can see that he doesn't look like Gin at all, but since the boss said so, everyone agrees.
Before, Yayoi saw the blonde beauty in the safe house. As soon as Vermouth saw him, she gave him a hug, touched his head and said that you and Gin really look like brothers, and then congratulated Gin on finally having a son and a daughter, regardless of how dark Gin's face was.
He, and Miyano Shiho, Gin are like the teachers in the senior kindergarten class.
Of course, this is not because he thinks he is childish, but because Gin is the only real person in the organization who does practical things according to the stereotype, and he also takes time to take care of the children, which in a sense is full of comedy effects.
So the word "like" is actually sincere and full of admiration.
Maybe it was because his gaze at Gin was too obvious, Gin glanced at him, and Yayoi was not flustered by being exposed, and gave Gin a very warm smile - after all, he was a brother-con, so no matter how bright his smile was, it would not be excessive.
As expected, Gin didn't say anything, and his aura calmed down when her eyes fell on the collar around his neck. Yashiro subconsciously touched it.
The slightly cool metal buckle was frozen by the cold winter air and it felt a little stinging when I touched my fingertips.
He checked before putting it on, there shouldn't be any high-tech positioning inside, and the tag hadn't been removed when Gin threw it to him. So why did he feel better when he saw this?
Before Yashiro could figure out the reason, Gin stopped the car.
They arrived at a coffee shop in the downtown area. The location was good, the environment was quiet, and the decorations on the door looked expensive. It was the kind of shop that only Internet celebrities would come to if they wanted to be taken advantage of.
There were few cars parked at the entrance, and Gin was very unethical and occupied two parking spaces by himself. The doorman at the store door glanced at the license plate and pretended he saw nothing.
Yayo originally thought that they would go to some research institute or something like that. She always felt that when Miyano Shiho was mentioned, she would think of a scholar in a white coat. She didn't expect it to be such a normal coffee shop.
Gin walked straight in, and the waiter stopped after they entered the hall and did not follow them.
A chestnut-haired girl in a black dress was sitting in the room with a cup of coffee in front of her. Her face was expressionless, and it could be felt that she was not very excited about this meeting.
This is not surprising. When Gin told him yesterday, he said he would return to the United States in a few days. Yayoi calculated the time and realized that Christmas was coming soon, so Miyano Shiho was probably on vacation.
The person who could make the girl travel halfway around the world to come back to Japan to see her was definitely not him.
When Miyano Shiho heard the voice, she sighed softly, patted her skirt and stood up.
She finally returned to Japan during the Christmas holiday, originally thinking that she could spend more time with her sister during this holiday, but she didn't expect to be called to the laboratory after returning. She will graduate next year, and now she is going there to familiarize herself with the laboratory in advance.
Gin asked for leave today and thought she could go see her sister, but was asked to meet another person first.
——Gin’s younger brother.
If Gin hadn't promised her that she could arrange her own affairs after the meeting until the next day, who would be willing to meet this Gin brother who appeared out of nowhere?
Miyano Shiho doesn't have a good impression of gin, and has no interest in cider either.
The best you can do is not to vent your anger on him and just get it over with as soon as possible.
Miyano Shiho thought to herself, she imagined a smaller version of Shota Gin in her mind, sneered and fired.
Ah, it’s really annoying.
Miyano Shiho raised her head. She was still a little afraid of Gin, but she didn't mean to embarrass him. It was possible that she wanted to end the meeting quickly so that she could go see her sister. She was always cold to others, but she even said in a very nice manner, "Gin."
Gin nodded, and then a young man walked out from behind him.
Miyano Shiho is
Looking from below, he was a skinny young man, wearing thick-soled black lace-up short boots, a long black windbreaker, and black fingerless gloves, dressed in black like all members of the organization.
"I'm Miyano Shiho, Shirley." She stretched out her hand, closed her eyes, and then raised her head to speak to the other person.
——Nothing new, it's just a small gin.
Before Miyano Shiho could finish saying this in her mind, she suddenly saw the other person's face.
She was stunned.
"I'm Cider." The boy said expressionlessly, but his green eyes were very gentle, reflecting her shadow, "You can just call me Yashiro."
Then he gently held her hand. Her fingertips were slightly cold, but Miyano Shiho subconsciously took a step back as if she was scalded, and the mobile phone in her left hand fell to the ground.
Apple Cider squatted down first to help her pick it up. Maybe it touched the switch when it fell to the ground, and the phone screen lit up, revealing a screensaver with green as the main color.
For a girl with a cold personality like Miyano Shiho, this cute wallpaper that seems a little fancy, with various pictures scattered in the picture, although it looks very complicated, is handled very carefully and the picture does not appear messy.
All of the above are different expressions of the same person, a young man with black hair and green eyes. The one in the middle is wearing a black uniform similar to a military uniform, and he is showing a faint smile to the front.
In perfect sync, the boy in front of her looked at her phone with a similar expression.
It's like a ray of sunshine on a cold snowy day, warm and gentle, making people want to get closer.
Miyano Shiho covered her face with her hands, her palms were so hot that they seemed to be smoking.
Gin seemed to see Vodka.
…
This meeting was so successful that Gin didn't know what to say. He was sitting alone at the table next to him, with a cup of coffee in front of him, drinking it lonely and depressed.
Sitting in a row next to him were his adopted sons and daughters, bah.
After making a mental note for Vermouth, Gin continued.
The two kids next to him are his younger brother and subordinates. Shirley has been thrown into his charge since she showed her genius mind, and now she is almost grown up. Yayo next to her also has special abilities and receives special treatment from the BOSS.
Without exception, these two guys are the type who are cold and only gentle to certain people. However, at this moment, they are actually holding hands and chatting together. They have been chatting for half an hour.
It didn't stop.
If I had known I would have brought that book with me.
Gin originally thought that with these two people's personalities, this meeting would not last more than ten minutes, but he didn't expect that Shirley would grow into Vodka without him knowing...
This statement is so vicious.
Unexpectedly, Shirley turned into a second dimension without him knowing, and even her mobile phone wallpaper was——
Then Gin remembered that he already knew the ending of the book, and became even more depressed.
——How could the murderer be the teacher? He went through so much trouble but didn't kill anyone...
Gin put down the coffee cup in his hand heavily, and the porcelain made a crisp sound when it collided. Neither of the two people paid any attention to him. From the sound of it, it seemed that Shirley had invited Yayoi to the research institute...
I'd like to see what the appeal is, just a boring children's animation.
Gin took out his mobile phone with a cold face and typed the words "Wheel of Fortune" into the search bar without any problem. Then he was silent for a few seconds, and comforted himself with confidence that it was nothing strange that Vodka said it in his ear every day.
At the top is the video link of the animation, but when he clicked it, it didn’t play directly. The webpage prompted him to download the APP.
Gin held his breath and downloaded the barrage website, skipped the registration and opened the first episode of the "Wheel of Fortune" animation again as a visitor.
I didn’t see anything. The overwhelming barrage of comments covered the entire screen.
When he finally figured out how to turn off the barrage and was about to start watching, the explosive, super-burning epic reverb opening theme suddenly sounded. Shirley and Yashiro, who were chatting on the side, turned their heads and looked at him keenly.
"Is it the OP of Wheel of Fate?" Shirley immediately recognized the source of the music, and then looked at Gin hesitantly.
Of course Yayoi also knew this music. After all, he could only see the opening theme song every time he watched the animation. He had listened to this opening at least ten times.
At this time, he looked at Gin with some complicated expression.
Gin:.
Gin: So tired.
*
This meeting ended with the OP of Wheel of Fortune. Yayoi and Miyano Shiho made an appointment to visit her laboratory next time. Although Miyano Shiho has not graduated yet, the organization has already given her a laboratory.
Gin didn't even send him back. He said impatiently that he could go find Scotland or anyone else, he had something to do, and then drove away by himself.
After thinking about it, Yashiro called
Shuichi Akai.
After all, Shuichi Akai didn't know him before, so there was no pressure of being exposed.
Then he looked at Miyano Shiho next to him. The girl was a head shorter than him and also liked him.
Well, Miyano Shiho is the same as Vodka in this respect, she likes "Kuroya" more, it seems that she thinks he is more handsome. So when they first met, her heart beat faster when she saw his cold face.
"How are you going to get back, Shiho? Should I ask Lei to take you there?" Yayoi asked, bending down slightly.
He develops slowly. Chihiro, who is the same age as him, was about the same height as him when he was in junior high school. But once he entered high school, he grew rapidly as if he had taken drugs, and is now more than ten centimeters taller than him.
And Yayo grew only two centimeters taller when she entered high school.
This is outrageous! So when disguise is needed, he always pretends to be a girl when he is with Chihiro!
Facing Miyano Shiho, who is much shorter than him, Yayoi finally feels a sense of accomplishment as an older brother.
Of course, there was also a little bit when facing Kudo Shinichi, but he and Shinichi are not that familiar with each other.
"My sister said she'll be here soon." Miyano Shiho shook her head and said, "I'll go back with her."
"Ah." Yashiro paused. Shiho's sister is Miyano Akemi. Shouldn't he have called Lei over just now?
Although the plot is different from the original, I am still a little worried.
But there was no need for Shuichi Akai to get close to Mingmei now, right? Even if his undercover identity was discovered, the only trap he would have to deal with was him, the introducer.
Yayoi felt relieved and said to Miyano Shiho, "Then I feel relieved."
Miyano Shiho smiled faintly and said, "I'll wait for you in the laboratory tomorrow."
In fact, Yayoi felt that it was a bit heartbreaking for a little girl like Shiho, who chose the laboratory as her first choice when inviting her friends to play. Children who grew up in an organization may not have experienced a normal life.
But he didn't directly say that this was not a normal place for ordinary people to date. This might make the girl feel uncomfortable, so he planned to agree. If there is a first time, there will be a second time. Next time, he will invite Shiho to some normal place.
Miyano Akemi arrived before Lei and was a little surprised to see Yayo. She naturally knew what her sister's favorite character looked like. In fact, she also liked it very much. She wanted to have more topics to talk about with her sister, so she also watched the anime, but she still liked the leader Yayo more.
After saying goodbye to him politely, Miyano Akemi drove away
My sister left here, and about five minutes later, Shuichi Akai arrived.
In fact, it wasn't that slow. Shuichi Akai's residence was about half an hour's drive from here, but it took him less than twenty minutes, which showed that he was in a hurry on the way here.
Yashiro got on the car and saw the taciturn Akai Shuichi. Since he was in a good mood today, he wanted to tease him, such as saying something that would make Akai Shuichi's face change drastically.
"Thank you for your hard work, Akai. Shall we have lunch together?" Yashiro said to Akai Shuichi with a smile while fastening her seat belt. Before Akai Shuichi could react, she said, "Oops, I called you the wrong name. I've been with Scotland so often, so I made some mistakes."
Akai Shuichi looked at him, and there was something in his dark green eyes that Yashiro could not understand. Then Akai Shuichi smiled at him and said, "It's okay."
Then he started the car, because Yashi said that she wanted to have lunch with him. After asking, they decided to find a restaurant to eat outside. He was not Scottish, so he didn't even know how to cook...
When you think about it this way, Scotland really is that kind of perfect man.
She has good looks, a gentle personality, and is good at housework.
But this is not him and the minors...
Wait, could it be Yayoi's request? Although he has a filter for the original Yayoi, this Yayoi grew up in the organization, so maybe he has no relevant common sense at all.
When I think about it this way, it turns out that Scotland has bigger problems. If Yashi doesn't understand, doesn't he understand too?
…
Yashiro looked at Akai Shuichi's increasingly serious expression, and finally said, "The light is red."
Shuichi Akai suddenly reacted at this moment, but the car had already driven to the middle of the road, so he simply stepped on the accelerator and confirmed his reputation as a red light runner.
"What are you thinking about?" Yashiro felt more and more that she really shouldn't have asked Akai Shuichi to come over today. Although she didn't see Miyano Akemi, he was in a bad state today. Did something unexpected happen during yesterday's mission? Obviously, Rei looked fine.
Or did they fight again after he left?
...Zero isn't that childish.
Akai Shuichi glanced at Yayoi, suddenly turned the car and stopped temporarily on the side of the road.
He held the steering wheel with both hands, not looking at Yashiro, but staring at a certain point ahead.
"I have something I want to tell you."
"Hmm?" Yashiro was very confused, "You go ahead."
"I know I may not be in a position to say this, but as an adult,
I think it's necessary to remind you a little bit."
Yashiro tilted her head, her eyes filled with confusion.
"You are still young and don't understand many things. And the environment you grew up in... No, mainly because you are not yet an adult, there is no need to be special about some things..."
The more Shuichi Akai spoke, the more he regretted it. He felt that he shouldn't have asked that question.
But Yashiro still looked at him in confusion, so he had no choice but to continue.
"Scotland's behavior is also very irresponsible. After all, he is older than you..."
"What does this have to do with Scotland?" Mishi asked, confused.
Finally, through Shuichi Akai's tactful and implicit explanation, Yayoi finally understood what he wanted to express.
"So, you saw me outside that day, so you called me, right?" Yashi asked without any expression on her face.
Akai Shuichi nodded without looking at him.
"Dirty sir." Yashiro said coldly.
The author has something to say: OP is the opening song. Since I have the final say, I will say it boldly. I hope it is composed by Yuki Kajiura!
See you tomorrow babies!
