Chapter 48 Partnership



"...He was just careless," Finlandia said awkwardly.

"But you chased Akai Shuichi for him for thousands of miles?" Zhu Fushiguri blinked. "By the way, you haven't told me what happened to Akai Shuichi in the end?"

“…ran away.” Finlandia managed to utter after a long while, “He was too cunning and too vigilant.”

"That's a pity." Zhu Fujing smiled with his cat eyes.

"...Aren't you all police officers?" Finlandia looked at Zhufu Jingguang suspiciously.

"That's different." Zhu Fujingguang said gently, "How can the FBI be the same as our Japanese public security? Those people are unreasonable sometimes." For example, they came to Japan without permission in order to obtain intelligence about the organization on their own.

"...Is that so?" Is it natural for the public security to reject the FBI? He thought that except for Furuya Rei, the rest would not be like this.

"Perhaps... you could start investigating from your childhood?" Zhu Fujingguang suggested, "For example, when you first joined the organization, or it would be even better if you have information before you joined the organization."

"Of course." Zhu Fujingguang, who had some guesses in his mind, considered his words and asked, "Finlandia, do you think...you and Gin were...very good partners before joining the organization?" "Me and Gin?! Very good partners?!" Finlandia widened her eyes in disbelief and almost blurted out, "How can he and I..."

"Anyway, you saved me because you had questions to ask. Why don't you just tell me about your current problem? Maybe I can help you solve it?"

"In that case, I certainly can't give you an answer right now, Finlandia." Zhu Fu Jingguang said, "There are too few clues, and the whole picture is unknown. I won't comment. Maybe you should go and learn more?"

"..." Zhu Fu Jingguang didn't speak for a long time.

"Well, maybe you can give it a try. I'm waiting for your good news." Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled.

However, Zhu Fu Jingguang still said: "It's okay, every child has a rebellious period, it's normal, I believe that gentleman will understand." How could he understand? Don't let him know.

Finlandia looked at Zhu Fujingguang dimly: "Sir said..."

Finlandia glared at him angrily, then looked at the time and said, "It's getting late. I have to go back. You..." Finlandia paused and said after a while, "Be careful."

"But... every time I try to think more deeply, my mind seems to be blurred by something. There is also a thick fog in the deep jungle where my target is... I can't see anything." Finlandia retracted her half-clenched fist and slowly opened it in front of her. There was only invisible air in her palm.

Miyano… She had heard of Shirley’s codename before, and it seemed that Zero had paid special attention to it for a while before. He had only seen Shirley from a distance when he and Finlandia were on missions before, and he didn’t know much about her sister, but since he could find a clue, it couldn’t be better.

"I shouldn't be hostile to Gin, and Gin shouldn't be so bad to me. It seems like we should have a deeper connection rather than just being colleagues with a bad relationship." Finlandia leaned back on the sofa and stretched out her right hand vaguely, as if trying to grab something.

Finlandia looked up for a while, then slowly sat up, rummaged in her pocket, and took out a bunch of keys. After thinking it over, she said to Zhu Fu Jingguang seriously, "The door can be used for both key and fingerprint. Since you don't have fingerprints, just use the key. This one is in the basement, and the rest are outside. You can try them yourself when the time comes. Now I'll give them to you."

"Finlandia..." Zhu Fujingguang lowered his voice.

"Okay." Zhu Fu Jingguang bent his cat eyes gently, "Believe me, Finlandia, it will be solved. Everything will be fine." I don't know if the last sentence was said to Finlandia or to himself.

"knew."

After a while, Finlandia finally showed a compromising expression. He sighed, put the cup on the coffee table, and said softly, "Actually... it wasn't originally intended to hunt down the undercover."

"Then there's nothing to worry about." Finlandia shrugged. "You have to have a certain degree of trust in your partners. By the way, this is what Gin said, not what the gentleman said."

"I won't tell the gentleman." Finlandia snorted, and she really looked like a rebellious child. "He won't understand. He will just tell me to be a good boy and not to go after Gin."

"Mr. won't explain to me." Finlandia didn't care about Zhu Fu Jing Guang's thoughts, "Mr. will only say that it was my illusion." He turned to look at Zhu Fu Jing Guang with a complicated expression, "Mr. will tell me to stay away from Gin and not be interested in him. Mr. will not let me touch his useful tools, but..."

Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned.

Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at Finlandia quietly.

"Zhu Fu Jingguang." Finlandia looked at Zhu Fu Jingguang seriously, "You are a smart person. The police will not send a fool to be an undercover. Your identity was exposed because the police have an undercover agent. I think you will not rashly expose yourself when the enemy is unclear."

"...Is it really okay to just give it to me like this?" Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned, but still asked before taking the key.

"Yes, cooperation."

"Well, Miyano Akemi is Shirley's older sister. I remember we played well together when we were little. Anyway, I still have a good relationship with them now." Finlandia smiled, "Maybe I can ask her."

From what Finlandia just said, because Gin was seriously injured by the FBI, Finlandia chased Akai Shu for a month or two and traveled halfway around the world before arriving in the United States.

Watching Finlandia open the door of the basement and the afternoon sun pouring in, Zhu Fu Jingguang felt an indescribable emotion in his heart.

"...Okay." Zhu Fu Jingguang laughed.

"Well, you say... Isn't it a bit bad to lock up your partners in the basement?"

"...Yeah, so it's fine if only the two of us know about it." Zhu Fu Jingguang suppressed a smile, "Don't tell anyone else."

Zhu Fu Jingguang's mind reappeared the sudden encounter that night. He still remembered the moonlight that night. The originally clear moon was obscured by clouds and mist, and the full view could not be seen, which was very much like Finlandia's description today.

It seems that Finlandia and Gin were good friends. Wait, Finlandia was brainwashed by the organization when she was a child? Then Gin was probably brainwashed when he was a child, so they... had a childhood relationship? Zhu Fushi Jingguang suddenly felt that he had discovered something incredible.

"Shh!" Zhu Fujingguang put his index finger in front of Finlandia's mouth and winked playfully, "Don't you want to see a world that is different from what Mr. said? Then let's try to start by getting rid of 'Mr. said'."

[It can be seen that it is very sparkling, host. 】

"You have a point." Finlandia said listlessly, "But what kind of clues do we need?"

Finlandia sat up again. "I think what you said makes sense." He thought for a moment. "If it was when we were kids, I don't remember much else except training. But Mingmei should know a lot."

Zhu Fujingguang felt that if he was brainwashed, he would definitely have a natural affinity for Zero. There was no basis for this, he was just simply confident in their childhood relationship.

"..." Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at Finlandia, feeling like there was something stuck in his throat.

"..."Yes, Finlandia was right. The enemy and us were unclear, so he couldn't contact the police department rashly.

"Of course." Finlandia's lips curled up slightly, and her mood obviously improved a lot. "I know that this kind of complicated problem cannot be solved overnight, but the two of us can solve it slowly."

"..." Finlandia's lips trembled a few times, and he answered with some difficulty, "Yes..." He fell back somewhat dejectedly, "That's why I want to know what's going on."

"What does it feel like?"

"But..." Finlandia met Zhu Fu Jingguang's gentle eyes and was hesitant to speak.

"So... didn't you say you would help me solve the problem?" Finlandia seemed to have adjusted her mood, but she still looked listless.

"Do you want to admit it, Finlandia?" Zhu Fujingguang did not give Finlandia a chance to escape. "Obviously my first reaction was to deny it, but there was always a feeling that told me that this might be true, right?"

“It’s like…” Finlandia turned her head and looked at Zhufu Jingguang blankly, “We shouldn’t have been like this.”

"Finlandia, what you said to me has nothing to do with anything." Zhu Fu Jingguang took the kettle on the coffee table and poured a glass of water for himself and Finlandia. "It's cold. Drink some if you don't mind." He pushed the cup in front of Finlandia. "Anyway, I have completely cut off contact with the outside world, but at least I am a living person, so I am more or less useful."

"It should be...Xian said." Zhu Fujingguang retracted his hand, "This world has to be seen and said by Xian himself before it counts."

"..." Finlandia's breathing became a little rapid, and she looked away in embarrassment.

Help, my eyes are blinded, officer.

"I see..." Finlandia leaned back on the sofa, tilted her head back, and her eyes fell on the large bag of supplies that had been placed on the dining table. The smile on her face slowly faded.

"Well... I want to be a good child of the teacher, but... I'm still curious about where my strange obsession with gin comes from. That's why I want to understand something that is completely different from what the teacher said. Um... just think of me as entering a rebellious phase..." Finlandia muttered embarrassedly.

"Mingmei?" Zhu Fu Jingguang was startled.

"Eh?" Zhu Fujingguang's heart moved slightly. Did they want him to return to the sunlight? He thought that it was good enough to gain Finlandia's trust today, but he didn't expect that he could get the right to use the sunlight in one fell swoop? He was in good spirits in the basement now, which was largely due to the long-term undercover training after graduating from the police academy, but if he stayed there for too long, he would really become listless, and he was not sure how long he could continue to stay.

Finlandia lowered her head again, her eyes and tone filled with sadness: "What I want...is not gin."

Gin...is like the moon tonight.

"But, Finlandia, what's the problem with this?" Zhu Fujingguang continued, "It's just hunting down an undercover agent, isn't this normal?"

Zhu Fu Jingguang was stunned. If it wasn't about hunting down the undercover agent, then what was it? "...It's because of Gin." Finlandia didn't look at Zhu Fu Jingguang, but just lowered her head and played with her fingers. "It's so strange. Every time I see Gin, I have a strange feeling."

"..." Finlandia frowned, "No sir, what is that?"

So… the key point of similarity is the occlusion, not the moon?

"Uh...of course not."

"Of course." Finlandia also smiled. "So we are now in a partnership?"

"What's wrong?" Zhu Fujingguang keenly sensed Finlandia's emotional changes.

"What I want is... Yeah, who is it?"

"...What are you going to say again?" Finlandia said sullenly, holding the water cup.

Whenever he was about to catch up, Shuichi Akai would dodge him quickly and the sniper could not hit his vital points. This also shows that Shuichi Akai's ability is indeed strong. It seems that Lei still hid his strength when he was undercover.

"Then tell me, it's obviously a normal act of hunting down undercover agents, why are you so entangled?" "..." Finlandia's lips moved a few times, and he always seemed to be hesitant to speak. Zhu Fu Jingguang was not in a hurry either. He just looked at him quietly, his eyes full of encouragement.

He might be able to guess that the organization had brainwashed Finlandia, making him abandon his past at such a young age and completely become the organization's Finlandia. However, no matter how much he understood and trained, he could not become the person involved. He knew that the process of awakening the mind was difficult and painful, but he would never truly feel that unforgettable emotion.

Rebellious period? The rebellious period in the twenties? Zhu Fujingguang showed a hint of smile in his eyes.

So… Finlandia and gin, too?

"Those who can be sent undercover into the organization must be very capable, so I believe you won't just walk around the street brazenly, right?"

"...Finlandia." Zhu Fu Jingguang spoke, and when he saw Finlandia looking back, he said, "Can I... call you Xian?"

Finlandia was visibly stunned.

The slanting afternoon sunlight rushed into the basement, trying to extend into the small living room. Zhu Fu Jingguang stood at the dividing line between light and darkness, asking him with a smile.

"...Of course, Jingguang."
