The letter to Dr. Agasa soon received a reply.
He did have such a device, but it was not particularly suitable for use on cars and needed to be modified.
He kindly offered to help and listed several issues that needed to be paid attention to and areas for improvement if the modification was to be done on the car.
Jinpei Matsuda was the only one among the four who could understand Dr. Agasa's suggestions on the spot without even looking at the materials and made improvements directly on his drawings, while Kenji Hagiwara also quickly understood after hearing the brief explanation from the curly-haired boy.
The two boys who could be called mechanical geniuses began to mumble and offer suggestions for improvement. Yue Yuanqing was absent-minded for a moment, and for no reason he thought of his younger brother Yue Yuan Liang, whom he had not seen for eight years. When they first met, he felt that his younger brother and Matsuda Jinpei both liked to destroy things, and wondered if the former could also become a mechanical genius.
Although Tokiwa Hiiragi didn't understand the specific content of their discussion, his ability to read minds allowed him to quickly hand the two boys the tools and materials they needed before they could speak. As for Tsukionno Kiyoshi, he volunteered to go to the library to get some materials that might be needed.
The library was crowded with all kinds of people, including students and office workers. Yue Yuanqing walked quickly through them, silently searching for the books he needed.
The shelves in the front row were filled with popular books. The professional books that Matsuda Jinpei and his team needed were at the back of the library. There was almost no space between the thick books. The small body of the black-haired, blue-eyed boy was blocked by the books. There were not many people visiting the bookshelves here. Even if there were, they were students or workers in related majors. No one expected that there would be a short junior high school student. Yue Yuanqing, who had a low sense of presence, was naturally ignored by others.
One of the books, "Overview of Private Car Model Structure and Modification Tips", was placed on a slightly high shelf. Yue Yuanqing was about to stand on tiptoe to touch it when he heard two people talking.
"...We found him, but we still need to verify. Yes, I know the rules of the organization, and we would rather kill the innocent than let him go. But please listen to me, sir, I don't want to attract attention. You know, the organization can only dominate the inner world now, and its control over the outside world is not strong enough. We need to keep a low profile..."
Yue Yuanqing had a bad feeling in his heart, and he quickly retracted his hand and did not take the book again. He took a light breath and quietly peeked at the two people through the narrow gap between the book and the bookshelf.
This was a shocking sight. Yue Yuanqing pursed her lips, and her whole body froze, trying to make her breathing lighter. The two people in front of her were all dressed in black. The man who had just spoken wore a black sweater with black jeans, a dark gray T-shirt underneath, and a black cap on his head; the woman opposite him wore a black shirt with a black fishtail skirt, her lipstick was almost black, her black hair was scattered, and she was wearing a black lady's veil hat.
Even though it was autumn, dressing in all black was a bit exaggerated, as if she was saying, "Hello, I'm a member of the Black Organization, come and catch me!"
But what is puzzling is that no one questioned or looked at this kind of dress.
Therefore, Yue Yuanqing quickly concluded that this was a member of the Black Organization.
There's no other reason. Only people from the Black Organization would dress strangely without attracting attention.
Tang Lichu in Yueyuanqing's body was particularly sure of this. When he was a child, he was very curious about why Gin wore the same black windbreaker, shirt, pants and hat every day, which was like cosplay in the hottest weather, and people around him could turn a blind eye to it so naturally.
Yue Yuanqing's heart was pounding, and he closed his eyes, knowing that if he went out now, he would only be killed. So he hid where he was, hoping that the two people would not find him.
His choice seemed to be extremely successful for the time being, because the two of them continued to communicate with each other without realizing it, and their lowered voices made them seem even more suspicious.
“…Do you think I don’t know? But that boy is extremely important to the organization. There are only a few experimenters left for us to consume, and he is one of the few sober experimenters. I must capture him, otherwise I will have trouble explaining to Lord Rum…”, the woman wearing particularly dark lipstick spoke in a serious tone.
The two spoke in extremely low voices, and Yue Yuanqing could only hear them intermittently. He could only barely make out that the two were trying to capture a sober person who had escaped and had experienced the organization's experiments and brought him back to the Black Organization.
The bad feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Tokiwa Hiiragi never said it explicitly, but his three good friends all tacitly acknowledged his peculiarity - it could be said that his ability to read minds was an unspoken secret among the four children.
It is impossible to infer based on this alone, but don't forget that Tang Lichu in Yueyuan Qing's body has actually experienced the branch line "Escape from the Black Crow". He knows very well that Shi Ting Shu is the organization's experimental subject.
So the two people in front of us are here to capture Shi Ting Shu!
After realizing this, Yue Yuanqing became even more nervous. He didn't dare to move, for fear that his footsteps would be discovered.
Even if it has nothing to do with the side quest, Tang Lichu will definitely try his best to save Shi Ting Shu.
He didn't know who was controlling Tokiwa Hiiragi's body right now, but it was undeniable that he, Hagiwara Kenji, and Matsuda Jinpei all brought him a truly relaxed friendship that he had never felt before.
Tang Lichu had never felt such emotions before he traveled through time. His mother always told him that everyone who tried to befriend him had bad intentions. Either they had worse grades than him and wanted to drag him down with them, or they had better grades than him and wanted to trick him out of competing. So he was alone throughout his elementary and middle school years.
It was not until I reached high school that I realized I had gained a reputation as being “difficult to approach,” and it was too late to make a few more close friends.
In short, as Yue Yuanqing, he was simply enjoying this branch quest and didn't want to leave. It was completely different from the painful experience in the previous branch quest, and he was enjoying almost everything here.
Of course, some of this is also due to the fact that the app has lowered our perception of time.
And now.
Looking at the two men in black talking in front of him, Yue Yuanqing clenched his fists. He wanted to take a deep breath to calm himself down, but he was worried that the sound would be heard. He pursed his lips, and as a second choice, he let his nails dig into his palms to create a slight sting, barely suppressing the trembling of his breathing.
The real crisis of the side quest seems to be coming, and his good friend is in danger.
Yue Yuanqing continued to listen to the conversation between the two people. The woman walked closer to the bookshelf opposite him, and her words gradually became clearer. When the woman stopped, she was only two layers of books away from Yue Yuanqing. As long as she went down to the books in front of her, she could see the eavesdropping boy through the gap in the other layer.
"You know that the experiment has three good friends." The female member of the organization is the one with higher status in the Black Organization. She gave an order to another man in black, "Threaten him with them. He doesn't care about his own life, but he should care about his companions."
"Yes." The male member of the organization responded respectfully, "Your Excellency is indeed wise. You can come up with such a low-key method that can quickly achieve the goal." He obviously agreed with the other party and agreed that it was a good method.
"And that brat, you should have heard it in the bug." The woman's voice followed. Then Yue Yuanqing heard the sound of fabric rubbing against each other, probably because she turned around.
"Is it... the kid who developed the car Chivas wanted?" the male member of the organization asked hesitantly, "Or the one next to him...?"
"That's the adolescent brat who acts like he's owed money. Lord Rum is short of manpower, right? Let's send him over. If Lord Rum is happy, we can let him make some interesting gadgets. If he's not happy, let him die, or use him as a waste for experiments. Anyway, it won't do any harm."
Yue Yuanqing pinched his hand until it almost bled.
They have already targeted Toki, but now they want to capture Xiao Zhenping?!
"Yes, sir, then what should I do?" the man asked humbly.
The woman's voice was filled with satisfaction. "The base has what you need. I'm leaving now. You can leave later so as not to arouse suspicion."
"yes."
The man didn't leave until about three quarters of an hour after the woman left. He had already pretended to pick out books and walked through every shelf in the professional books area. Yue Yuanqing hesitated for a moment and decided to put down the books and follow.
He followed not too far, but not too close either, just a distance that would prevent him from being left behind. This was extracted by Tang Lichu from the memory of Yue Yuanqing - the grown-up Yue Yuanqing.
Like nesting dolls, the skills of the future Yue Yuanqing benefited the past Yue Yuanqing, and the past Yue Yuanqing worked hard to learn and acquired skills so that the future Yue Yuanqing could know these... Yue Yuanqing thought about the messy content in a haphazard manner, which seemed to be a sense of trying to find joy in suffering.
At this moment, the familiar feeling of multiple perspectives came over him, and Tang Lichu found that he could control Shi Ting Shu's vest again. No, to be exact, he still couldn't control it, he just shared the other's senses.
For some reason, Tokiwa Hiiragi followed the woman in black and walked into a bar.
Yue Yuanqing raised his eyes and looked at the corner of another street not far away. That was the bar seen from Shi Tingshu's perspective, and it was also the destination of the man in black he was following.
It was a very ordinary bar, perhaps a clean bar, so no one was outside to stop minors from entering. Men and women were sitting around two or three small tables, talking and laughing. Shi Ting Shu could tell their purpose. Most of them came here to have fun, which showed that they were ordinary people and had little to do with the Black Organization.
Further inside was a private room, but someone blocked the way. Because of his young face and innocent temperament, Shi Ting Shu was identified as a minor at a glance and could not enter. Fortunately, he had caught a glimpse of the faces of the woman and man in black before, and Tang Lichu took the opportunity to obtain their memories.
Tokiwa Shuu didn't force his way in. He looked around and quickly locked onto a very immature-looking male high school student. After reading his mind and empathizing with him for a moment, he became a student who came here to seek excitement without telling his parents. He opened a pair of curious eyes and looked inside tentatively, but because he was timid and didn't dare to cause any trouble, he stepped aside and ordered some wine.
He ordered a glass of whiskey and wanted to take a sip and then pretend that he couldn't drink it and leave, but the waiter stopped him with the words "minors are not allowed to drink" and brought him a beautiful-looking drink.
Tokiwa Hiiragi: ...Okay.
On this side, the chestnut-haired boy was drinking and watching the performance in the bar. On the other side, Yue Yuanqing skillfully blocked the other party's hearing and began to track him nervously.
This time, he didn't think it didn't matter if the vest died like he did in the first branch quest. Even if it was just to prevent his two little friends from being sad, he would cherish the life of this vest.
That's why he has to be more cautious.
But to be honest, barging in rashly was already imprudent enough, but for Matsuda Jinpei, Tsukizono Kiyoshi was willing to take a chance.
Tang Lichu has already seen the memories detected from Tokiwa Hiiragi's perspective. The man in black is a peripheral member of the organization, has no code name, and his last name is Kusama. This time, he follows his superior to capture Tokiwa Hiiragi and bring him back to the organization. The woman in black is his superior, a code officer at the lowest level, from the Rum faction, codenamed Qingmeijiu, and her direct superior is Stout.
By the way, according to the information obtained by the future Tsukizono Kiyota, Stout is an undercover agent planted by M16 in the organization.
This time, Qingmeishu came to the organization's base deep in the bar's private room to report to Stout.
Yue Yuanqing is going to take a big gamble.
When he first met Kenji Hagiwara, he made him realize that his low sense of presence in the eyes of some people could be exploited. And now, he was going to take advantage of this feature——
kill.
In fact, I really went to a bar and ordered a cocktail. It was on the day after the high school entrance examination. My classmate’s mother accompanied me and I had a good time (). We also went to FamilyMart to buy some wine, including green plum wine and peach blossom wine, both of which were delicious.
What I'm saying is that it seems that they basically don't check whether someone is an adult. I don't know if it's the same in Japan () but let's just assume it's like this ()
