Chapter 27
The huge office suddenly fell into a rather strange silence.
…
The roller shutters of the floor-to-ceiling windows fell one by one with the sound of mechanical sliding, and the room was shrouded in darkness. Kamado Kenryu was then kicked out of the office.
Of course, they were kicked out only because Mori Ogai had a new task to assign to the two blacks, and it was inconvenient for others to be present.
The white-haired boy had already obtained the key to the secret weapons vault No. 11. He bowed lightly and left the heavily guarded leader's office peacefully.
"I'll step back first."
"Wait, Shendu-kun."
Before Shen Du Jianliu left, Mori Ogai suddenly called him and said in a deep voice: "I am only 36 this year?"
"Yes."
Shen Du Jianliu replied doubtfully: "You are still young."
Mori Ogai: “…”
"You go down."
"Um."
Nakahara Chuuya, who stayed in the office, covered his hat with his hands and looked up at the sky. Dazai Osamu, who was standing next to him, had already burst into tears and covered his mouth with his shoulders shaking wildly.
Mori Ogai coughed lightly, and the empty room suddenly returned to silence.
The task assigned to the two blacks was this weekend, and both of them had a few days of rest.
After bidding farewell to the leader's office, Nakahara Chuuya glanced at Dazai Osamu who was also leaving and followed him into the elevator as he left the floor.
"Hey, Dazai."
"How much do you know about that guy Shen Du?"
"What are you going to do by asking about him, Chuuya?"
Dazai Osamu looked at the serious-looking ochre-haired boy with a smile, but his brown eyes were not as friendly as they looked: "Ah... Could it be that you saw the bracelet that Jianliu-kun was wearing on his wrist?"
"You know!?"
Nakahara Chuuya widened his eyes in surprise.
"It's obvious, right? Didn't Chuuya notice it when they first met? You're really a slug with an inactive brain."
"Speak to me seriously!"
The orange-haired boy stiffened his fists and held back his anger: "What's wrong with his body? His complexion is so bad, but his recovery speed is surprisingly fast."
"Chu Ye, do you think a normal person can restore a shattered liver, spleen, stomach, and a bleeding abdomen in just one night?"
Dazai Osamu looked away indifferently, his left eye fixed on the dial in the elevator that kept jumping down: "And there is a 'switch' in the body."
"As long as the 'switch' of containment is removed, chaos and disorder will be released, which is powerful enough to surpass its own strength."
Nakahara Chuuya's eyebrows twitched: "What do you mean..."
"I went to the data room and used the authority that only cadres can use to view relevant secrets from 17 years ago."
"Nothing."
The black-haired boy said casually, glancing meaningfully at the ochre-haired boy wearing a top hat behind him: "Except that it is closer to now, the [Artificial Psychic] plan 11 years ago."
"This is an absolute secret from the military and police, and all relevant records have been erased."
Nakahara Chuuya: “…”
"Of course, some traces can still be captured. This research includes but is not limited to the government's singularity research back then, which is the so-called Arabaratu Project."
"Logically speaking, all the test subjects, except Huang Batu, should have failed and died."
"But we cannot rule out the possibility that the other test subjects survived by chance."
With a ding-dong sound, the sound of the elevator door opening interrupted the silent atmosphere inside the box.
"Well, this is all nonsense~"
"ha!!??"
"Isn't it the one who knows best whether there are any experimental subjects of the real Huangbatu alive? You have been to the military's supernatural research institute, right?"
Seeing the elevator stop at the 7th floor where he wanted to go, Dazai Osamu walked out of the box without any reluctance, waved his hand indifferently, turned around and disappeared.
"You bastard mackerel...!"
Nakahara Chuuya gritted his teeth as he watched the other person leave the elevator compartment, but did not chase after him.
The elevator began to slide down again. The boy silently took off his hat, lowered his eyes and looked quietly at the name printed on it.
So to speak.
It was because he had been there that he knew that Dazai Osamu's hypothesis was not impossible.
Because the person in charge of the Huangbatu project was still alive two years ago today, and continued to conduct related experiments in secret.
He was experimental body No. 258 more than 10 years ago. Who can guarantee that there will not be No. 259, 260... or even 300 in the future?
Zhongyuan Zhongye is the only perfect successful example of Huangba Tu's experiment.
So, what if there are “defective products” that survive by chance?
He twirled the bowler hat in his palm and put it back on, raised his hand to change the elevator button, and headed for the quasi-cadre-level database where secret intelligence was stored.
Although the information that Huang Batu provided to him was given to him by Mori Ogai in advance, he still remembered some records of related information.
***
Before leaving the headquarters, Shen Du Jianliu went to the cadre building again.
Kojima Haruki's office is a collective office, which contains lockers similar to those in the Black Lizard.
As luck would have it, this former partner happened to be sitting on the sofa in the public area.
The other person had a short bun on the back of her head that didn't show her hairstyle at all. She had kept the same hairstyle since the day of training and was chatting with a colleague on duty.
"Shendu?"
Noticing the slender boy standing at the door, Kojima Haruki immediately raised his arm and waved: "I was just about to look for you."
"I heard that you came to see me before, and you were hospitalized a few days ago?"
The other person looked energetic. Although his face showed some physical fatigue and busyness, he was very energetic.
"I have been following Lord Sasaki these past two days. I am so busy that I have no idea about this matter."
"Are you okay?"
When Kojima Haruki's colleague saw the person coming, he stood up, retreated to the guard position very respectfully, put his hands behind his back, stretched out his hands, and lowered his head in a rest position.
Shen Du Jianliu had done so many glorious deeds in the past few days, especially 30 minutes ago, when he and the quasi-cadre Zhongyuan came back from outside with a carriage full of supplies, and the news had spread throughout the interior at an extremely fast speed.
"fine."
Shen Du Jian Liu walked into the room calmly and said calmly: "Are you on a business trip?"
"Yes, I went to Saitama. I heard that they will go to Sapporo next week."
"Don't mention me."
"I heard that you were transporting the goods well, but were attacked by the enemy, and together with Lord Zhongyuan, you wiped out the organization."
Kojima Haruki's expression was both admiration and complexity. Admiration was because he knew how powerful Shen Du was when he was a rookie training, and complexity was because...
"Do you have some kind of magical power? Every time you go on a mission, you encounter major events."
"I don't know whether to say you are lucky or unlucky."
Shen Du Jian Liu didn't say anything.
Super high school level luck?
He was not sure whether his transformation had added this factor. Rather than saying it was "luck", it was more like a probability, the probability of encountering related things he had come into contact with.
Based on calculations and summaries of all the events encountered in this world so far, the probability of coincidence is approximately 59.81%.
"By the way, I found a super delicious dessert shop in Saitama. Do you want to go there together next time?"
"Um."
Shen Du Jianliu agreed to the other party indifferently.
The two of them didn't chat for too long. There were a lot of people walking around in the office, so it wasn't suitable to find out more information.
Taking the corn silk tea that Haruki Kojima insisted on brewing for him before he left, and exchanging new contact information, he said goodbye to the other party's department while holding the cup.
…
Next week, Sapporo.
Sapporo is in Hokkaido, the driving distance is over 1,100km, and you need to go through the airport when departing from Yokohama.
The handsome young man with pale skin had a calm expression and walked into the elevator with his purple eyes without any ripples. His scattered bangs cast a light shadow under the swaying light.
He almost understood.
The next step is to wait for the opportunity.
[Where is Shendu going now?]
[Ryubo, Zai's clothes are still in Captain Ishizaki's office]
[It's not just clothes, there's also a bug]
[Seeing that Liu is getting promoted again, I am relieved]
[On the contrary, I don’t want him to be promoted so quickly. A tall tree attracts the wind.]
[When I thought about Mori Xie directing and acting out the Mimic organization into Yokohama and using Oda as a pawn, I started crying. Is A Liu really going to stay in Hong Kong? 】
[Mori Xie said he is 36 years old, Dazai is also an executive, the Mimic incident won’t happen this year! 】
Shen Du Jian Liu frowned slightly.
He had seen comments discussing Oda Sakunosuke more than once.
It seems that the impact of this incident is very great. As a friend of Dazai Osamu, the other party will also aggravate the spread of despair to a certain extent.
I need to pay attention to the organization that sneaked into Yokohama as soon as possible, and find some time to find out the relevant information about Mimic.
With the authority that Kamado Kenryu has currently been promoted to in PortMafia, it would be easy for him to investigate some grassroots intelligence, but for various reasons, it would be best for him not to go to the Hong Kong Mafia's data room and leave a record of his investigation.
This problem is easy to solve.
He could ask Sakaguchi Ango privately.
Don’t forget that Shen Du Jianliu has another identity, which in a sense is a second channel for obtaining intelligence.
The elevator has now reached the lowest floor. The white-haired boy walked out of the branch building and, while heading towards the main building, he re-organized his current main goals:
① Eliminate Sasaki, one of the five top leaders of the Port Mafia; ② Influence Dazai Osamu; ③ Investigate the Mimic organization mentioned in the barrage and question Sakaguchi Ango.
The comments in the barrage are not credible, so the third one needs to be investigated.
As for now...
After taking the elevator to the floor where Ishizaki Yamato's office was located, Kamado Miru decided to first retrieve the transfer report that had been stamped.
If he goes to the registration office to apply now, he will have his own office approved tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. From now on, Shen Du will be in charge of a department alone, and can also recruit some subordinates from the new employee training department, freeing up a lot of wasted time.
However.
Noticing that Shen Du Jianliu came out of the elevator, the member standing upright beside him suddenly stopped him and said, "Master Shen Du."
Realizing that the other party was calling him, the white-haired boy stopped in confusion.
"Ishizaki Ten-man Leader was suddenly withdrawn this afternoon. It seems that the higher-ups are urgently dispatching personnel."
"He may not be back for several days, so the room will be empty for a while. The head of the ten-man team asked me to tell you that you can enter his office at will."
"……oh."
Shen Du saw that there was no emotion in Liu Lan's purple eyes, and nodded with an unchanged expression.
He left the elevator and continued walking towards Ishizaki Yamato's office. This time, at the big turn in the middle of the artificial staircase, he ran into Nakahara Chuuya, with whom he had just parted not long ago.
The handsome young man with ochre-red hair was holding a document in his hand. He walked silently through the long and deep corridor. Just as he was about to go down the stairs, he suddenly caught sight of Kamado Kenryu who was standing not far away.
The other party was startled and subconsciously put away the documents in his hand.
"you……"
Nakahara Chuuya looked surprised, as if he had not expected the other party to appear here: "Are you not leaving yet?"
"Um."
Shen Du Jianliu saw the folded black and white copy clearly at a glance, but did not say anything.
He nodded slightly, his expression neither humble nor arrogant.
Nakahara Chuuya looked at the respectful Kamado Miru with mixed feelings. His cobalt blue eyes reflected the pale and bloodless lips of the white-haired boy. Some addresses he had just seen in the document unconsciously emerged in his mind.
"You... said before that you were in Yokohama when you regained consciousness. Do you remember the exact location?"
Location?
Shen Du Jianliu thought deeply for a second in a somewhat puzzled manner.
The system suddenly teleported him to this world. There was no specific place name or street. Shen Du only remembered the surrounding scenery.
If he were to return along the same route as he remembered, he could certainly do it, but there was no need.
"I don't remember. It's on the mountainside outside the city."
"On the mountainside outside the city!?"
The orange-haired boy's voice rose a little. When he was 16 years old... that is, two years ago, he entered the military's supernatural research institute at the end of the mountain road outside the village.
When Nakahara Chuuya looked at Kamado Miru, his expression had completely changed.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something soothing or affectionate, but he didn't know where to start.
Finally, the handsome orange-haired boy softened his voice and asked softly, "You just finished the mission, you haven't eaten yet."
"Are you hungry? Do you want to come to my house? Or I can treat you to a meal."
…
Shen Du Jian Liu: “???”
