Chapter 51 Baileys Out
In the dark and dimly lit room, large boxes of miscellaneous items were piled up together, and countless iron shelves were pressed tightly against the walls, seemingly holding something on them.
This room is about the size of a basketball court, but there is only one narrow path, just wide enough for one person, leading from the door to a desk.
Five computer monitors were mounted on the desk, which was the only source of light in the room. The blue light from the screens illuminated the thin figure in front of the desk.
Baileys was still wearing his thick-rimmed black glasses, staring intently at the screen. His face was mostly covered by the hood of his sweatshirt, and the oversized clothes gave him an indescribable dampness.
"It doesn't matter much if Midorikawa Hikaru isn't there; the three of them can still create some beautiful fireworks."
"Hehehe, go get the gems, go, go..."
On the screen, Rei Furuya meets Jinpei Matsuda. The two exchange a few words, but for some reason, Jinpei Matsuda suddenly attacks Rei Furuya. The two exchange a token blow, and after a few moves, Jinpei Matsuda pretends to be defeated.
Under these circumstances, Rei Furuya decided to obtain the gem first before leaving.
Amidst the commotion, he broke free from Matsuda Jinpei and sprinted at lightning speed toward the glass display stand showcasing the sapphires.
Just as he was about to pull out a miniature bomb to shatter the tempered glass, a tall man appeared out of nowhere next to Furuya Rei.
The man was wearing an extravagant black robe, completely covering his entire body.
He kicked the unsuspecting Furuya Rei away, sending him crashing heavily against the wall.
"Huh? What's going on? Who is he?"
Baileys was confused when she saw the strangers, as this wasn't part of the plan.
"Snap!" In the scene, the man in black snapped his fingers crisply, and then something magical happened.
One by one, the panicked crowd and the police officers evacuating the crowd fainted and lost consciousness. Before long, only Kenji Hagiwara, Jinpei Matsuda, and Rei Furuya remained conscious on the field.
"What kind of tactic is this?"
Matsuda Jinpei looked at the unfamiliar man warily.
He wanted to rush forward, but his body wouldn't obey him at all; he couldn't move an inch, which was very strange.
Looking to the side, he saw that Kenji Hagiwara and Rei Furuya were also frozen in place, just like him.
The man in black destroyed the glass cover protecting the gemstone with ease, and easily obtained the treasure inside.
"Damn it, why did this happen?" Bailey frantically grabbed at her hair, making her already messy hairstyle even worse.
"Why is it always someone who ruins my plans! Damn it! Who is he?"
In his plan, Rei Furuya and Hiromitsu Morofushi would enter the Beika Museum together, and he would then call the police to lure Jinpei Matsuda and Kenji Hagiwara inside.
At this moment, he detonated the bomb he had prepared beforehand, so that his Gin-sama could watch the beautiful fireworks created by the blood and flesh of the traitor at the Flower Cafe.
First to lose control was Hikaru Midorikawa, who surprisingly didn't follow Tooru Amuro into the Beika Museum, followed by the inexplicable appearance of a man in black.
Anyone who ruins my plans must die!
Sitting idly by will only lead to more uncertainties; Baileys must take action.
"Go to hell!" Baileys opened a page on her computer with a red bomb button. If she clicked it, everything on the surveillance footage would be destroyed.
Hovering the mouse over it, Baileys clicked frantically, and for a moment time seemed to slow down...
"drop!"
"Bang!"
The door was kicked open and slammed against the wall with a loud bang.
A beam of strong light shone directly in from the doorway, dispelling the darkness in the room and illuminating the "rats" in the sewer.
Baileys' eyes squinted at the sudden light, and he turned to look at the open door.
The silver-haired man stood back to the light, his posture upright, exuding holiness and majesty. His emerald green eyes looked down at Bailey's hunched back.
"Oh God, I think I saw God descend!"
Baileys lunged forward, then fell to the ground, twisting her body as she crawled to Kurosawa Jin's feet, forgetting all about the bombs and fireworks.
"Gin-sama~ You actually came here~" Baileys said, tears streaming down her face, expressing her loyalty.
Kurosawa Jin immediately took two steps back, his whole body trembling with fear.
Ugh! How disgusting!
This was Kurosawa Jin's first time visiting Baileys's office. As a hacker, Baileys had her own office space within the base.
With the light on, the layout of the room became clearer and more transparent.
Those iron racks were filled with exquisite Gin figurines, and the walls were covered with beautiful photos of Gin from various angles.
The boxes piled up in the room were full of Gin "merchandise"!
Having witnessed everything, Kurosawa Jin's killing intent towards Baileys grew even stronger.
"Crack!"
The bullet was chambered, and the cold muzzle pressed against Bailey's forehead for what seemed like the umpteenth time. Bailey was already used to it, and there was no trace of panic on her face.
"Ah~ Lord Gin~ You still like treating me like this~ Please treat me like this more often in the future~"
Huh! Kurosawa Jin felt a chill run down his spine once again.
"There will be no more, Baileys, as a mouse." Kurosawa Jin said as if calling out a death knell, "You're about to die!"
"Lord Gin, you're really joking!"
"Hehe, Baileys, can't you understand what I mean?" Kurosawa Jin smiled meaningfully. "My purpose in coming here today is to wipe out the Zoo Organization's spies."
"An undercover agent from the zoo organization? What are you talking about? I'm the only one here, how could I be an undercover agent!" Baileys felt it was utterly absurd. He was an undercover agent, how come he didn't know?
"I come from the Zoo Organization, codename Scorpion."
At that moment, the voice of a man in black came from the surveillance camera behind Baileys.
A good show is about to begin.
Baileys turned around abruptly and exclaimed, "How come they weren't killed in the explosion!"
He stared at everything on the screen, a sense of dread rising within him.
Scorpion, holding the string of magnificent sapphires in his hand, strolled leisurely to Rei Furuya.
Rei Furuya could only watch the scorpion with his eyes, while he himself was completely unable to move.
"Kid, are you puzzled?" Scorpion's fingers traced Furuya Rei's cheek. "Want to know the truth? Hmm?"
"What exactly do you want?" Furuya Rei asked through gritted teeth.
"Since you're all going to die anyway, I'll tell you," the man in black laughed.
"Baileys is actually a member of our Zoo Organization, and this time the target is to kill you, the newest member of the Black Organization."
"..."
The rest of the conversation is unimportant; what matters is Scorpion's admission that Baileys was an undercover agent at the zoo.
This is the key to the play—framing someone.
The man in black called Scorpion was a puppet made by Kurosawa Jin using props; the real Scorpion was long dead.
"No! Lord Gin, don't believe his one-sided story! He's trying to sow discord!" Bailey grabbed Kurosawa Jin's sleeve as if grasping at a last straw.
"One surveillance video is nothing! I've contributed so much to the organization, the boss will definitely believe me!"
Kurosawa Jin kicked Baileys away to avoid getting his trench coat dirty, and looked down at Baileys.
"Heh, Baileys, I'm saying you're an undercover agent, and you are an undercover agent, so what if you aren't?"
Indeed, this surveillance video is nothing special, and the BOSS won't believe it easily. However, Kurosawa Jin can still fabricate some more evidence.
Once Baileys is dead, there will be no way to verify the story. Kurosawa Jin can simply submit a report, and the boss will naturally believe it.
Act first, report later—that's the right Gin has!
Therefore, when a high-ranking public security official learned that Kurosawa Jin had replaced Gin and infiltrated the organization, he was overjoyed.
Baileys belatedly realized that this was all a trap set by Kurosawa Jin.
Lord Gin despises him, so he wants him dead!
“Since Lord Gin wants me dead, then I am willing to die for you.” Bailey’s dejectedly got up, and then knelt on one knee with utmost devotion.
Kurosawa Jin: Huh? Is this your twisted thought process?
Kurosawa Jin didn't understand and was deeply shocked!
"But, Lord Gin, before I die, please allow me to tell you one more thing."
"Do you remember the policeman you killed a year ago? The one who looked exactly like you?" Bailey thought she was revealing the truth. "Amuro Tooru and Midorikawa Hikaru were his accomplices!"
"They are undercover police officers; you must eliminate them!"
Baileys thought that if she could do one thing for Lord Gin before she died, she would die without regrets!
However……
“You really are loyal, Baileys.” Kurosawa Jin raised his pistol again. “Too bad you should have told Gin, not me.”
"What?"
"Give my regards to Gin!"
"Bang--"
Without giving Baileys any time for regret or reflection, a bullet sent him straight to his death.
Hot blood mixed with brain matter splattered on the floor. This was how the organization's famous hacker died. Good and evil will eventually be rewarded. This is the best ending.
Back to the time when the fake scorpion told Furuya and the other two that Baileys was an undercover agent.
After completing the task assigned by Kurosawa Jin, the fake scorpion felt that something was still missing.
As an intelligent spirit puppet in the cultivation world, he needs to choose the most reasonable way to leave.
"Hahahaha." The fake scorpion waved his hand, closing and locking all the surrounding doors.
He pulled out a bomb vest from somewhere and promptly put it on Rei Furuya.
Having done all that, the fake scorpion uttered a villainous remark before disappearing without a trace: "Enjoy your last moments!"
"Thump!" Suddenly freed from the immobilization spell, the three of them fell to the ground simultaneously.
Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji disregarded their own safety and rushed to Furuya Rei's side.
The bomb vest clearly displayed a five-minute countdown.
"You guys go! It's too late!" Furuya Rei pushed Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji aside.
"Baka! The door's locked, how are we supposed to get out?!" Matsuda Jinpei's fist slammed into Furuya Rei.
“Five minutes left, we have enough time. Furuya, don’t forget we’re experts at bomb disposal.” Kenji Hagiwara took a pair of scissors out of his pocket.
"But after you've taken it apart, can you definitely tell us what 'Baleys' is?"
Baileys, like Gin, is the name of an alcoholic beverage. Kenji Hagiwara suspects that Rei Furuya must know something!
