Chapter 48 The Fate of a Traitor
The orange-red rays of the setting sun shone on the gray-white walls of the unfinished building and spilled into the grass planted in the green belt.
"Go to Tianding Group?" Vodka asked. "Brother, but Tianding Liucai is in Beiyue Mountain."
He recalled the testimony of a low-ranking member of Organization A who had already been killed.
“Tian Ding Liu Cai defected to our organization with confidential documents from the Tian Ding Group. For her safety, we transferred her to Bei Yue Shan.” These were the exact words of a high-ranking member of Organization A.
“It’s destined that Ryusai won’t be on Kitagetsu Mountain.” Kurosawa Jin walked toward the car door and said coldly.
"Huh?" Vodka stood there dumbfounded.
Kurosawa Jin looked back at the group. Apart from Vodka, the others seemed to be deep in thought.
Shuichi Akai was genuinely trying to decipher Jin Kurosawa's words, while Kagemitsu Morofushi and Rei Furuya were probably racking their brains to figure out a way to leave.
Shuichi Akai was the first to speak up: "The person I captured was deliberately sent by Organization A to lure us to Kitagetsu Mountain."
"At that time, the people lying in ambush there will wipe us out in one fell swoop."
Kurosawa Jin looked at Akai Shuichi's face, and although he was displeased, he had to admit that Akai was indeed perceptive.
"What!" Vodka exclaimed in shock. "So, Tendō Ryūna is actually in the Tendō Group, and it was all a setup by her."
“No, it’s Shimoda Nobuo,” Furuya Rei denied. “He’s the one who truly betrayed the organization.”
The truth is that Shimoda Nobuo wants to break free from the Black Organization, join Organization A, and regain control of the Tenden Group.
Today, Kurosawa Jin went to the Tensei Group to test Nobuo Hata.
Nobuo Shimoda fabricated evidence of contact between Tenjou Ryuna and Organization A, attempting to mislead Jin Kurosawa into believing that the rat was Tenjou Ryuna, and then arranged for false information to lure Gin and his group to Mount Kitagaki.
"You guys are still somewhat useful," Kurosawa Jin said, a rare compliment.
“But it’s too late. You could have found out all this when you were investigating Organization A,” Kurosawa Jin said to Akai Shuichi.
He then looked at Rei Furuya, "And you two, when you were at Tenjo Group, Nobuo Shimoda's words were full of loopholes, couldn't you see anything?"
"I hereby declare that you have failed the assessment!"
The moment Kurosawa reached his conclusion, the three of them finally realized the extraordinary nature of this mission.
As expected, Kurosawa Jin's next words made them regret their slacking off and their underestimation of Gin's evil.
"Oh, I forgot to tell you, this mission is the assessment task for you to obtain your codenames." This short sentence made the three of them feel the harsh blow of the workplace.
"but……"
"I'm going to give you another chance."
These words rekindled hope in the three of them.
"Rei Furuya and Hiromitsu Morofushi will come with me to Tenjo Group to kill Nobuo Shimoda. Shuichi Akai, you will go and assassinate the leader of Organization A."
"You can also get a code name by completing these tasks."
Vodka, standing to the side, was incredulous and dumbfounded. His older brother was actually so forgiving and gave him a second chance. Was this really the older brother he knew?
And the older brother is so good to Rei Furuya and Kagemitsu Morofushi! Not only does he patiently answer their questions, but he also helps them with their codename assessment missions. What's the difference between this and taking a driving test with an instructor?
As expected, rumors are unreliable. They said Gin had his eye on Dai Moroboshi, but he clearly favored Hikaru Midorikawa and Tooru Amuro. Vodka got the truth.
Kurosawa Jin has sent the sea creature to his grandmother's house. He says that he can only spoil his own junior.
At this moment, Morofushi Kagemitsu jumped out and disrupted Kurosawa Jin's plan, "My lord, I wish to go with Moroboshi Dai to complete the assassination mission."
His only thought was to leave Kurosawa Jin and deliver a message so that he could save Matsuda Jinpei and the others.
Kurosawa Jin glanced at Morofushi Kagemitsu, who had a serious expression on his face, and inwardly sighed.
Sigh, in the end, he's now on the opposite side of Furuya Rei and the other guy. Even if he does things for their own good, they won't believe him.
After all, if Gin were a good person, the sun would rise in the west and dead pigs would fly!
Since Morofushi Kagemitsu insisted on going, Kurosawa Jin agreed. He took Furuya Rei to Tenjo Group, leaving Morofushi Kagemitsu and Akai Shuichi awkwardly facing each other in front of the unfinished building.
"I'm leaving now, I'll contact you by phone." Morifushi Kagemitsu said, leaving with an air of aloofness, and hurriedly departed.
Inside the Tensei Group building, Shimoda Nobuo sat leisurely on a leather sofa, his wrist swaying, the red wine in his glass rippling like waves.
He stood up and walked to the window, a faint smile on his face, looking down at everything outside the floor-to-ceiling window, as if he were the ultimate winner.
As night falls, the lights of the skyscrapers are on full display, and the headlights of cars on the distant roads flicker, creating a dazzling spectacle outside the window.
"Hahahahahahaha—" Shimoda Nobuo suddenly burst out laughing, going from very restrained laughter to unrestrained, hearty laughter.
"After tonight, I will have complete control of this group, hahaha, it will belong entirely to me! Hahahaha!"
Shimoda Nobuo laughed wildly and downed the wine in his glass in one gulp.
"Knock knock knock!" Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Enter."
"What's wrong? What happened?" Shimoda Nobuo, with his back to the door, was still admiring the night view, completely unaware of his dangerous situation.
"Boss..." The assistant's voice trembled, and Shimoda Nobuo immediately sensed that something was wrong.
As he turned around...
"Bang!"
"Pfft—"
Then he saw his assistant's bloodied forehead, pierced by a bullet, and a bullet flying toward him.
"Whoosh—" The bullet grazed Shimoda Nobuo's ear and shattered the glass behind him.
Then, the assistant collapsed, revealing the face that Shimoda Nobuo least wanted to see.
The silver-haired man in the black trench coat exuded a commanding presence, and standing beside him was a handsome, dark-skinned, blond man; the two of them together were a very pleasing sight to behold.
"What! How did you get here?" Shimoda Nobuo's hand trembled as he pointed at Kurosawa Jin and the other man, his eyes filled with fear!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"Why not?" Kurosawa Jin gradually approached Shimoda Nobuo. His deep voice was flat and monotone, yet it sent chills down one's spine.
Oh no, we've been exposed!
"Thump!" Shimoda Nobuo felt that his legs were no longer his own and was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground.
A silent world enveloped him, and all he could see was Kurosawa Jin's demonic figure gradually approaching him.
"Sir, it was all Organization A who ordered me to do it! It was all them! I didn't want to betray the organization, please spare me!" Shimoda Nobuo begged for mercy, clasping his hands together and kowtowing to Kurosawa Jin.
Faced with Shimoda Nobuo's clownish behavior, Kurosawa Jin laughed speechlessly, "You think you can get rid of the organization by killing me? You're really naive!"
"The power of this organization is beyond your imagination."
Nobuo Shimoda is clever; he can turn a chicken into a phoenix through his own abilities. However, he is also foolish; he is foolish enough to think that he can kill Gin with such a clumsy trick.
With a smile, Kurosawa Jin grabbed the trembling Shimoda Nobuo by the hair, ignoring his screams, and dragged him by the head to Furuya Rei.
"Newcomer, kill him!"
On a deserted street corner, the streetlights were dim, and several moths were swirling and fluttering in the beams of light.
A man wearing a blue hoodie leaned against the dim streetlight. He looked around warily, and after confirming that there was nothing wrong, he looked at his phone screen.
On the screen was a string of ordinary phone numbers, which looked like a telemarketing call. Only Morofushi Kagemitsu knew what the numbers meant.
Twenty minutes had passed since Morofushi Hiromitsu left the unfinished building. In those twenty minutes, he had called Kenji Hagiwara and Jinpei Matsuda countless times, but no one answered.
Just as he was frantic, like a cat on a hot tin roof, preparing to steal a car to catch up with his colleague, this number called his cell phone.
"Moshi Moshi, sir, I am so happy to congratulate you! You have won the prize! If you need to redeem it, please go to the second floor of Mihua Shopping Mall. The winning number is 5766."
"Beep beep beep..." The phone was quickly and mercilessly hung up by Morofushi Kagemitsu.
This is a secret phone number from the Public Security Bureau. Receiving this call means that Morofushi Kagemitsu's superior needs to contact him.
"Mihua Shopping Mall, second floor" is a key, representing a string of numbers. Adding "5766" to it forms a phone number.
This phone number was extremely secure. After entering the number using the keypad, Morobushi Kagemitsu pressed the dial button without hesitation.
"Sizzle sizzle sizzle—"
After a series of busy tones, an electronic voice reached Morofushi Kagemitsu's ears.
"Don't worry, we have taken Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji away. They are very safe now, so you don't need to worry."
The news of his online presence completely put Morofushi Kagemitsu's mind at ease. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I have basically gained the organization's trust. Once I pass the codename assessment, I will be able to obtain a codename."
"Okay, continue to lie low, remember to be careful and keep your safety safe."
"yes."
"Also, I received news from the Public Security Bureau that there are people of our kind in the organization's upper echelons. I'll send you their contact information."
Upon hearing this, Morofushi Kagemitsu was so shocked that he was speechless, 'This...this...'
According to the rules, undercover agents are unaware of each other's identities. After all, if an undercover agent is exposed and fails to withstand the organization's interrogation, exposing other undercover agents as well, then everything is over.
Even Morofushi Kagemitsu only learned that his childhood friend was an undercover agent, just like him, after meeting with the organization and Furuya Rei.
Of course, Morofushi Kagemitsu was no coward. He would rather shoot himself in the heart and die a heroic death than let himself fall into the hands of the organization.
Sensing his subordinate's confusion, he went online to explain, "Don't be surprised, they have their own considerations. Just do your job."
After giving a few more instructions, he hung up the phone.
Morofushi Kagemitsu put away his phone, his heart filled with mixed feelings as he tried to guess the identity of that senior.
To rise to the top ranks of the Black Organization, one must be a senior figure among his predecessors. Perhaps that senior already knows his and Furuya Rei's identities and is secretly observing and protecting them.
The fact that the police were able to rescue Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji in time is very likely due to the message passed on by that senior.
The senior holds a high position in the organization, so he cannot hold the senior back. Zhu Fujingguang secretly made up his mind that he would never leak the secret!
