266.

"Sherry, this is the information you requested."

As the sun sets, the world is already covered in a golden hue. A brown-haired girl in a white coat stands by the window, reading a report sent by her assistant.

The lines of data that ordinary people could not understand left no trace in her eyes. After quickly flipping through all the content, Miyano Shiho stood there for a long time.

Half of her face was hidden in the shadows, her eyelashes drooped, and a feeling of powerlessness spread from her fingertips, making her almost unable to hold on to the thin papers.

"How... is it getting more serious?" The girl murmured, her voice full of confusion, "Obviously my research direction is not wrong."

In order to save the life of a temporary guardian who doesn't care about his own body, Miyano Shiho has devoted himself to research in the past few years, and his progress can be said to be rapid.

It had been over five years since she returned to Japan, but now, at the age of sixteen, nothing had changed—not that nothing had changed at all, but still not enough.

The incomplete data left by her parents allowed her to restart the APTX series of experiments. With the previous data, the difference between the two samples of Cinsou and Vermode became more obvious in Shiho Miyano's eyes.

She selfishly wanted to work hard to solve the mystery of the former and put the latter aside, but every time the experimental results would give her a blow - Vermode's condition had improved a lot, but Shensuo's data was too complicated, so absurd that it was simply not like a human being!

Even a genius like her found it difficult to get started.

In the eyes of outsiders, it seemed that Shirley was the first to research drugs related to Vermode, while the temporary guardian Shinso was left aside.

In response to this, Vermode used this to mock Shinso, saying that it was useless for her to please Shirley.

The latter just uttered a faint "Huh" and took Miyano Shiho, who had just got off work, out for dinner. He didn't look like he was offended at all and continued to do what he wanted.

Miyano Shiho even asked her anxiously: "Shinso, I really didn't mean to..."

The pair of hands, which were always cold all year round due to physical reasons, once again fell on her head. The nearly blind woman was used to measuring her height in this way, even though she was almost as tall as her.

Shinsou said calmly, "I don't care."

"Shirley, just do what you can. I know my own body."

Miyano Shiho subconsciously grasped Shinsou's slender, cold fingertips, trying to convey her warmth. She bit her lip and said, "Logically, the effect of the drug in your body should have worn off by now. Is there anything else you can't tell me?"

The effect of the medicine that Miyano Shiho mentioned was something she discovered by chance when she was examining Shinsou.

After several rounds of secret investigations, she figured out that it was another type of drug being researched by the organization - APTX-3112, which has the effects of truth-telling and brainwashing.

However, because there were too few samples and the research cost was huge, it was temporarily shelved after the rise of the experimental team led by Shirley and was only used as an ordinary truth serum.

After Miyano Shiho found out, she told Shinsou, who also showed a surprised expression in front of her for the first time.

No one likes to be controlled, let alone Miyano Shiho, who has lived in an organization since childhood and even her meeting with her sister is strictly restricted. Her attitude towards this is particularly intense.

"Don't you want to know what the organization has erased from you?" The young girl said excitedly, "Shinso, I know you don't want to be a puppet of this organization!"

Shinsou was sitting on the sofa, holding a cup of warm tea. He was silent until the tea turned cold. Then he said to her slowly, "Shirley, be careful with your words and actions."

——It almost made Miyano Shiho angry to death.

But before the brown-haired girl could get angry, the black-haired woman smiled faintly and said, "Okay."

Miyano Shiho reasonably suspected that Shinsou deliberately wanted to see her change her expression. This woman is actually very sinister!

Therefore, with the tacit consent of both parties, Miyano Shiho secretly developed an antidote that completely eliminated the brainwashing effect of Shinsou and brought back all the emotions that she had originally blocked.

That was also the only time Shinsou cried in front of Miyano Shiho.

The black-haired woman, who was usually as cold as a piece of ice, held the brown-haired girl in her arms without saying a word. Only the gradually wet clothes on Miyano Shiho's shoulders revealed the violent fluctuations in her heart at the moment.

The most desperate grief is voiceless, and even crying is just a futile vent.

Miyano Shiho heard Shinsou say "I'm sorry" in a trembling voice, his voice so hoarse and out of tune, like the last cry of a dying bird.

She knew that wasn't meant for her, but that person... never mind, anything bad would happen to anyone who was associated with the organization.

All Miyano Shiho could do was to slowly hug her back, pat her back gently with her hands, and in her heart, as if she was coaxing her like an older sister, she whispered "Don't cry, don't cry."

After that, the two continued to live in peace. Shinsou was still cold and decadent. If Miyano Shiho had not checked several times and found no residual effects of the drug, she would have even thought that day was just a dream.

But that cold embrace was too shocking, and Shiho Miyano would think of it from time to time...

------

"I'm not hiding anything from you. But Shirley, you still need to increase your value. It's not enough now." Shinsou let her lead him and said in a tone that was almost an order, "Focus on the research of APTX."

"Why?"

"If you want to survive in this place." Shinso did not answer her question, and said dictatorially, "No blueberry jam today. You have exceeded your sweets quota this week."

Miyano Shiho: "...You are not allowed to eat spicy curry either!"

Shinsou changes the subject again!

The brown-haired girl knew how stubborn this woman was. She agreed on the surface, but secretly still devoted a lot of energy to studying Shinsou's data.

only……

The sunset outside the window was about to set, and the warm orange turned into twilight. Miyano Shiho looked at the information in her hands and felt extremely tired both physically and mentally.

Invalid, invalid!

Shinsou's health is getting worse!

What on earth should she do?

After so many years, she has made great progress in the APTX series of experiments, but she is still helpless against Shinsou. She even has to conduct research secretly without telling anyone because the person involved is unwilling to let her waste her energy.

Thinking of Shinsou's increasingly serious symptoms over the years, including his multiple episodes of unconsciousness, Miyano Shiho became so anxious that her hair started falling out.

The organization never keeps idle people. Shinsou has warned her many times about this truth, just to prevent Miyano Shiho from slowing down the research progress because of her health condition. That would not only be of no benefit, but might also force her to cut off contact with Shinsou.

Miyano Shiho naturally understood, but Shenso herself was at a loss as to what to do!

She retired from the action team due to health reasons, and the deteriorating eyesight caused by the side effects prevented her from gaining a foothold in the intelligence team. If her research did not make any progress, what would she do in the future?

Things without value will be thrown away in this organization!

But the guy himself didn't take it seriously at all. Every time he woke up from a coma, he would call her to ask about the time as if nothing had happened!

For this reason, Miyano Shiba developed a habit of keeping her cell phone open at all times. She subconsciously checked her cell phone, fearing that she would see Shinsou's messed-up text message again.

Fortunately, there was no such thing this time, but the last call record was just yesterday.

Miyano Shiho clenched her cell phone tightly, and a rare smile appeared on her cold face.

She gets angry every time she sees this now. Sooner or later, she will be so angry that she will die!

This worrying temporary guardian!

It's a pity that she initially thought Shinsou was such a cold-hearted guy, but in fact he was just a stupid idiot who couldn't even take care of himself!

Although she cursed and raged countless times in her heart, the brown-haired girl still managed to maintain her outward appearance very well.

Miyano Shiho smoothed out the wrinkled information and was thinking about how to look for clues from a different angle. At this moment, her cell phone suddenly rang.

The brown-haired girl subconsciously thought it was Shinsou calling and was startled. She picked up the phone without even looking at it. But before she could say anything to complain, she heard a cold and anxious male voice saying, "Shirley, are you still in the research institute? Come out."

——Bourbon.

Three years ago, the blond young man Toru Amuro, who was sent by Gin to "protect" Shinsou, finally got the code name - Bourbon Whiskey, and became a rare all-round talent in the organization.

Because he was too capable, he rarely interfered with trivial matters such as driving to pick up Shirley or taking care of Shensuo's daily life.

Miyano Shiho knew that there were some complicated emotions between him and Shinsou that she didn't understand, and she still trusted him.

Why is she calling her so late at night? Miyano Shiho frowned and said, "I haven't finished my research yet. If you have anything to say, just call me..."

"Come out." Bourbon repeated, "Rye has confirmed his defection. Something has happened to Shensuo."

"Although this matter has nothing to do with you, there is still some information I want to confirm with you."

Miyano Shiho only felt a buzzing sound in her head, and the data slipped from her hands, covering the ground with a white area.

[Akai defected?! Is this the beginning of this episode so exciting! (Tactical retreat)]

[My tears are flowing. Why is my sister Shinso mentioned again? Is her luck really negative?! God knows that I, a Shinso chef, put all kinds of lucky items on her figurines every day, but when I open the comics, I get nothing but the pain of wheat (crying voice)]

[It seems like there is nothing that can be done about this... After all, this time Akai was brought into the organization by Shinsou. Mingmei, an outsider, can still pretend not to know, but Shinsou has a code name, so this situation is serious!]

[Kneel down, spit blood, kowtow, can I expect a Gran to kill someone?]

[Wake up, upstairs! It's been five years, and the brother and sister are still in isolation! When can I see the brother and sister being close?——(Cat clinging to the wall)]

[Are you sure it's Tietie and not Daodao? Glenn has been getting more and more ruthless in recent years. If it weren't for the disguises from the Metropolitan Police Department and Toru's restraint, I think he would have been on the wanted list nationwide...]

267.

Chiyoya Saori already knew through the forum that Shuichi Akai wanted to arrest Gin but failed, his undercover identity was exposed, and he subsequently defected.

This is a major plot point, just like how Rei Furuya will definitely go undercover in the organization, it is bound to happen and she cannot change it.

But it is still possible to prepare yourself mentally in advance.

After all, it was because of that funny guy Chianti that she became the member who recommended Shuichi Akai to join the organization.

But the Chianti guy will also be investigated this time, so we can share the same difficulties!

At this time, Chiyoya Saori was sitting in the back seat of Gin's car.

Gin was the one in charge of driving, because the matter was of great importance and the person he was going to meet was the BOSS, so Vodka was ruthlessly left behind.

She turned the forum's opacity to the maximum and read the comments slowly and calmly, without feeling panic at all.

She is no longer the naive girl she was before. She has already stockpiled all the necessary items and is very familiar with the thinking of other people in the organization. It can be said that if the progress of the comics had not been slow, Chiyoya Saori would have gone to the Dark Shark Boss long ago...

But that guy is really mean. He hasn't shown up in all these years. Apart from knocking on her two vests from time to time, he hasn't revealed any information at all.

However, Chiyoya Saori learned a lot of information through the so-called "Two-Level Reversal" which can "probe the psychological activities of the subject for three minutes".

For example, the current condition of the BOSS is not very good, and he can't wait for Shensuo's slow research progress, so he turns his attention to Granmani.

In his eyes, Granmani's appearance has not changed in the past five years, and his physique is still very good. Compared with Shinsou, he is more perfect.

As for the capsules that Shinsou took - maybe Chiyodani Toru was also fed them by his parents when he was young?

However, there was a lack of sufficient clues and opportunities, and Gran had an outstanding record in the action team. In order not to cause unrest among the higher-ups, the boss suppressed the urge to send Granmani to the laboratory and maintained superficial peace.

Chiyoya Saori is not panicking about this. She wants to take this opportunity to find out the true situation of the BOSS.

However, she still had doubts about the secret information that had been mentioned many times. But as this piece of information was drawn in the comics, she knew that it was only a matter of time before the truth came out.

She can wait.

The information that cost her family so much...

"Shinso, don't you have anything to say?"

When Chiyoya Saori fell into deep thought again, the silver-haired killer in the driver's seat spoke.

"What should I say?" She came back to her senses and raised her head coldly, "Whose responsibility is it that his true identity has not been discovered after so many years of traveling?"

Gin sneered, mocking her indifferent attitude: "Are you questioning that gentleman?"

"Gin, it's you who can't do this."

The black-haired woman's calm voice rang out, causing the killer's expression to darken instantly.

Shinsou's seemingly direct accusation carried a hint of weirdness, which made Gin inexplicably think of the rumors that had been rampant in the organization in recent years.

Although in recent years, due to Shinsou's physical condition, the opponent's offensiveness and damage to him are not as strong as when he was brainwashed in the beginning, but this twisted emotion directed at him alone, which cannot be washed away even by sending a handsome guy, makes Gin feel like a thorn in his throat.

#This is what is called a mental attack being greater than a physical attack#

The silver-haired killer looked through the rearview mirror and noticed that Shinsou's hands on her knees suddenly tightened, and he knew that she was not as calm as she seemed.

Letting a rat from nowhere into the organization and allowing him to reach a high level is enough to bring shame to the entire upper echelons of the organization. It is still uncertain whether Shinsou's current value can withstand the wrath of that gentleman.

There was no point in him getting mad at a useless piece of junk.

Thinking of this, the silver-haired killer just sneered: "Good luck to you."

…

Good luck, good luck!

Chiyogaya Saori stood at the gate of the base with an expressionless face, feeling the chilly night breeze.

Gin dropped her off here and drove away directly. Logically, Shinsou had never been to this base.

She is now! On the surface! Still blind!

It would be fine if she had poor eyesight to walk around in other unfamiliar places, but she didn't even know how she could walk in this organization base that was like a rat's nest with its eyes closed!

Chiyoya Saori would never do such a thing that would bring about social humiliation.

Although you can lower the opacity and walk more steadily...but this place must be monitored, and it will easily expose the real situation!

Chiyoya Saori stood at the door with a sullen face, waiting for the boss to find out the situation and send someone to rescue her, while she was madly stabbing Gin, the villain of this guy.

Gin, you ran away halfway through sending the Buddha a gift, you are done!!

-------------

Gin parked the Porsche in a more remote place, then walked back and saw Shinsou standing at the gate of the base like a statue from a distance.

The woman stood straight in the cold wind, her black hair blowing back in the night breeze, revealing her fair face. Her face, hidden by sunglasses, did not show much reaction, and one could only see her irritability at the moment from her clenched, white fingertips.

She just stood there quietly, as if she was trapped on an isolated island, finding it difficult to move.

——In fact, this is true.

"It has been sent to the base, sir." Gin pressed down on the earphone and whispered, "There is nothing unusual about Shinsou's reaction."

The boss's specially processed voice sounded: "GIN, do you think Shinsou is still worth keeping?"

Gin stopped and said respectfully: "Everything is subject to your will."

"I don't mean to criticize you." The boss's voice was very calm. "Just analyze it according to your usual practice."

The silver-haired killer's dark green eyes flashed with a hint of sadness: "The organization has invested too much money in researching her, but the progress is still slow. In this regard... her value is not enough; moreover, whether in the action team or the intelligence team, the role that Shinsou can play is almost zero."

“Oh——?” The boss stretched out his tone.

"But she's not completely useless." Gin said calmly, "She can control Shirley and Glenmarie very well, and Bourbon has a good relationship with her too - provided that her loyalty is reliable."

"Granmani..." The boss whispered the code name, but his tone was strangely crazy. "GIN, I remember that you have a good relationship with that kid, right?"

Gin didn't know how to respond to this for a moment.

But the boss didn't seem to want him to continue, and instead spoke to himself, "Does he look very similar to Shinsou? Whether it was five years ago or now - has his appearance changed?"

Gin was stunned.

Because of his special identity, Granmani always wears a disguise when he is on a mission, but he cannot show up in front of the police. His appearance...

"no……!"

The silver-haired killer's pupils shrank involuntarily. The point that he usually never paid attention to was brought up at this moment and became the target of the sniper.

He didn't expect that Shensuo's mistake would cause the boss to shift his attention to Gran.

"You are right. Using the divine cord to restrain Granmani is the best option at the moment. Don't give her the opportunity to get in touch with the core affairs of the organization. Naturally, there is no such thing as loyalty. Moreover, she really has no reason to betray."

The boss suddenly said something surprising: "GIN, my time is running out. I can't wait too long."

"If there is not much progress with Vermode and Cinsou, Granmani will become my last resort."

Gin thought of the boss's current situation and his breathing subconsciously stagnated. He whispered, "Has it come to this? But we have never done any relevant research in Granmani."

"So start understanding now." The boss gave the order directly, "Bring Shensuo here first."

Gin looked at Shinsou who knew nothing about this and said respectfully, "I understand."
