Chapter 105 (Previously Chapter 104): Senbei! Please go out with me! ...
Senbei!
Please go out with me!
"Rice crackers?"
Kazami Yuya felt somewhat dazed, to the point that he kept hearing a voice that sounded exactly like his boss calling him "Senbei," using the respectful term a subordinate would use to address a superior, and the tone was respectful with a hint of expectation.
What a terrifying hallucination! How could Mr. Furuya possibly call me "senpai"?
The dark circles under his eyes from staying up two long nights in a row to organize the major changes were hanging down. Kazami Yuya, who still insisted on getting up early for work today, had his brain shut down. He just calmly wiped his glasses and waited for the auditory hallucinations to disappear.
Hmm... there seems to be something very important today. The police officer, with his tired, heavily nearsighted eyes lowered, tried hard to recall the thing he couldn't remember, and had a feeling that if he couldn't remember it, he was doomed.
But only one thought was in my mind: I'm so hungry.
Last night, after staying up all night, I was so sleepy that I didn't have time for a midnight snack. This morning, I was rushing to work and forgot to have breakfast... Kazami Yuya's thoughts and soul were drawn away by his empty stomach, but he was still trying to remember.
What exactly has been forgotten...?
"Kaze-senpai?"
The honorific, laced with murderous intent, sent a shiver down Kazami Yuya's spine.
His brain, which had been malfunctioning, finally started working again. He hurriedly put his glasses on his nose, clenched his fist in front of his mouth, and cleared his throat seriously, trying to maintain his dignity as a senior.
"Hmm, what's wrong?"
We'll think about Mr. Furuya's matter later; for now, let's deal with this colleague whose voice is nine-tenths like our boss's.
Although he was distracted just now, he still caught some fragmented words.
What about those who have made great contributions, those in non-professional groups, students from the University of Tokyo... and new hires?
Hmm, new employee?
Kazami Yuya suddenly looked up and saw Furuya Rei smiling slightly in front of him.
"What's Kazami-senpai thinking? She seems a bit off."
The blond man was openly dressed in a blue police uniform. Compared to his usual casual hoodies and more formal suits, the uniform accentuated his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and resolute features.
Rei Furuya seemed to be in a good mood, but when he looked at his subordinate who clearly hadn't managed his body properly, his gaze still carried a stern and intimidating force that made people involuntarily straighten their backs.
Kazami Yu subconsciously straightened up, inwardly realizing something was wrong.
Oh no! He completely forgot that Mr. Furuya would be infiltrating the Public Security Bureau today!
The voice he just heard was not a hallucination; it was Mr. Furuya, a new recruit to the Public Security Bureau, calling him. A bead of cold sweat visibly appeared on Kazami Yuya's forehead, even though he had made his superior call him "senpai" three times.
My life is over!
Rei Furuya frowned slightly as he looked at his flustered assistant. His gaze swept from the assistant's disheveled hair to the dark bruises under his slanted eyes, finally settling on his haggard face.
Rei Furuya: A disapproving gaze.
Kazami Yuya: Sweat
"Mr. Furuya, ah, no..." He got nervous and blurted out Furuya Rei's real name, "Um, that..."
Faced with his boss's increasingly disapproving gaze, Kazami Yuya racked his brains to recall what his new fake identity was, but the more nervous he became, the more elusive the correct answer seemed, like a drifting feather.
Before he could figure it out, a police colleague walked over with some documents and handed them to Furuya Rei quite naturally. "Furuya-kun, you should start by familiarizing yourself with the work of the police from these documents."
"Okay, thank you, Chida-senpai." The blond man smiled awkwardly, took the stack of work papers, which were very basic in public security matters, and solemnly promised, "I will definitely complete the mission well."
Yes. Kazami Yuya finally remembered—the alias Furuya Rei used to infiltrate the Public Security Bureau this time was "Furuya Rei".
Falling valley zero, falling valley zero, falling valley zero zero.
It sounds outrageous, and it is indeed outrageous, but it also outrageously received almost unanimous approval.
Rag's reasoning was that it's difficult to develop a natural reaction to a new name in a short time, so it's better to use his original name.
Zhuge Tongzhi's reasoning is: "Amuro Tooru" has his own well-defined identity trajectory. Even if Noah's Ark can be altered, Furuya Rei, who is destined to work in the charming and prosperous Beika Town, will frequently run into old acquaintances in the future.
Since he didn't know that Kid was his cousin, Conan's reason was: there are three people in the world who look exactly alike, and Kid looks exactly like him, so it's not a big deal.
If necessary, Furuya Rei could even steal Amuro Tooru's account.
Having suffered greatly from account theft, Conan offered sincere advice based on his own experience. Zhuge Tongzhi glanced at the great detective who was still unaware of having gained several new relatives and chose to keep the secret.
And continued to encourage Rei Furuya to use his real name.
Rei Furuya felt that Zhuge Tongzhi's current torment of himself was comparable to Lager's torment of Gin, as natural as breathing, and without the slightest psychological burden.
“The children are right.” Kudo Yusaku pushed up his glasses and agreed with the suggestion. “You are now an ‘undercover agent’ who has entered the Public Security Bureau to replace Yagi Yuji as an organization. In fact, you are also under the attention of Gin Rum and others. You do need to pay attention to the details of your pseudonym.”
"Besides, your identity information has been kept confidential, right?" The refined man with a mustache looked at Zhuge Tongzhi, who shook his phone to indicate that there was absolutely no mistake, and smiled slightly. "In that case, there is nothing to worry about."
"Well, I'm not worried about confidentiality." His identity file is highly classified, and basically only his direct supervisor can view it. Furuya Rei has also prepared to go undercover back to his hometown.
only……
“I must say, this is indeed a bit strange,” the blond man said helplessly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the phone on the table rang with Shuichi Akai's calm and pleasant voice.
The man chuckled softly, "Nice to meet you, Officer Furuya."
"..." Furuya Rei looked down at his phone, which was accompanied by Chianti's shrill laughter. After looking at it for three seconds, he replied irritably, "Don't die at Gin's hands, Agent."
"I guarantee the mission will be accomplished." Shuichi Akai pressed his earpiece, squinted at the target through the sniper rifle scope, and whispered, "Rum is yours."
"Hmm," Furuya Rei replied briefly.
Zhuge Tongzhi: "Oh~ you guys finally stopped arguing~"
Conan: ...Zhuge, although this is the truth, won't saying it directly make people angry?
"May the world be at peace." This is the wish in the heart of the detective who unknowingly stirs up countless bloody storms.
But Furuya Rei had indeed mastered the skill. He casually brushed aside Zhuge Tongzhi's teasing words and went straight to the point, "Are you going to Sherry's lab?"
"Hmm." Zhuge Tongzhi leaned back on the sofa and browsed the forum, casually saying, "Most of the organization's labs are not connected to the external network, and the information security level is very high. Without the key, it is too difficult to steal data remotely."
However, if they could get inside the laboratory, they would achieve their goal by connecting Noah's Ark directly to the laboratory's internal systems.
"Just you? Is there Conan too?" Furuya Rei didn't think that a few children could break into Sherry's laboratory on their own, but when he thought back to the people Zhuge Tongzhi could trust, he couldn't find anyone for the time being.
Shuichi Akai is keeping Gin in check, while Hiromitsu Morofushi is working day and night to purge the organization's old crows. He himself is being pushed into the Public Security Bureau by Rag, and at the same time, he is monitoring the movements of sushi chef Rum.
Matsuda Jinpei, Hagiwara Kenji, and Date Wataru were all in busy departments, and Furuya Rei and Zhuge Tongzhi's original plan was for these insiders to just provide assistance, as the police's work itself was not suitable for them to be involved.
Although Rag was causing a ruckus at the distillery, as the newly appointed organization boss, all the matters that the old crow had been killed by Morofushi Kagemitsu had fallen into her hands.
With power in hand, the "blessing" of working 996 (9am-9pm, 6 days a week) is also in hand.
Rag was handling official business in complete darkness.
Aside from the adults who each had their own tasks, Zhuge Tongzhi trusted only underage high school students. Furuya Rei began to consider finding an excuse to take a few days off; he couldn't possibly agree to let Elle go alone.
“Conan isn’t going, but I’m not the only one.” Zhuge Tongzhi shook his head and said that Conan needed to stay in Beika Town to oversee the overall situation of the Red vs. Black confrontation. Then, he predicted Furuya Rei’s plan and said, “Rum is keeping a close eye on you, so you can’t leave either.”
“And I’m not alone,” the black-haired girl said slowly. “Sherry’s Fourth Research Institute in Japan was burned to the ground after her defection, but the experimental data was transferred to the old laboratory in the United States.”
Zhuge Tongzhi jumped off the sofa, carried a stool to the wine cabinet, and took a bottle of rosy-red liquor from the Kudo family's collection.
The liquor cabinet, once overflowing, now has some empty spaces. The important spirits are used as metaphors in conversations, but the often overlooked sweet wines are also slowly developing their own character.
"So I will go to the old lab in the United States."
The dark-haired girl placed the bottle of liquor on the counter, then steadily pushed it among the bourbon, Scotch, and rye whiskeys, revealing the labels with a flick of her fingers.
Kir
Kiel
In an instant, Furuya Reiichi remembered the female codename member with lightning bolt-shaped bangs, calm and intelligent, the CIA undercover agent named Mizunashi Rena, whose real name was Hondo Hidemi.
She is also the daughter of CIA agent Ethan Bendo. Four years ago, her identity was exposed, and she was forced to pretend to have killed her father to gain the organization's trust. In reality, Ethan Bendo committed suicide to protect his daughter, thus sending Gil to continue his undercover work in the organization.
“Of course I won’t go through this alone.” Zhuge Tongzhi gently patted the bottle of Kiel and said, “Kiel is right there, she will help me.”
Rei Furuya paused for a moment upon hearing this, but wasn't Kir a member of the operations team stationed in Japan? How come he's in the United States now?
Having been sent undercover within the police force, he had a bad feeling. "Is Kiel in America?"
"Yes, she's currently undercover in the CIA."
Jianggu Ling:......
Are you organizing some kind of movement to send educated youth back to their hometowns?
"In short, just go and 'go undercover' in the police force with peace of mind." Zhuge Tongzhi sat back on the sofa, looked up and smiled at Furuya Rei, who had already changed into a police uniform. "You must work diligently for the country and 'deceive' them into trust, Officer Furuya."
This is the first time since graduating from police academy that Rei Furuya has worn a police uniform and been able to openly enforce the law on the streets.
Although his police rank was lower than his actual professional title, when he put on the uniform that symbolized honor and responsibility and held the police ID with his real photo and real name on it, Furuya Rei still felt a kind of lightheartedness, as if he were in another world.
"Um."
…
A moment's thought drifted back to the present. Chida-senpai, who wasn't involved in Group Zero's work, patted Furuya Rei on the shoulder with a hearty pat and offered some encouraging words:
"Haha, just follow Kazami-senpai's lead and take it slow."
Rei Furuya nodded politely in response, and the policeman offered a few more words of encouragement to Yuya Kazami, who looked as if he had seen a ghost, before returning to his workstation.
"Hey, so this is the new recruit who reported Inspector Yagi. He looks like a college student."
"He just graduated from university. I heard that he made a great contribution before he even finished his training and was directly recruited into the police force. His promotion might be even faster than that of the professional group. He really hit the jackpot."
"If you stand on the street now, you might just hit the jackpot."
"roll."
"Don't underestimate him. Getting enough evidence to report Yagi isn't just a matter of luck; you need both luck and skill. This Furuya Rei must have some unimaginable extraordinary abilities."
"Hehe, putting everything else aside, her face is truly outstanding."
The sound of hushed chatter drifted from the nearby tea room. Very few people had access to Group Zero, so it wasn't surprising that the few insiders present kept their mouths shut with strange expressions.
The police officers in the office were curiously looking at him, but the "police newbie" Furuya Rei had a surprisingly good attitude. He remained unmoved, flipping through the documents in his hands, and started walking towards Kazami Yuya's office.
He had only taken two steps when he turned back to look at Kazami Yuya, who was habitually two steps behind him, and said helplessly, "What are you doing, Kazami? Go ahead."
“Now that you’re my senior, act like one!” Furuya Rei said with a serious expression, “This is an important mission, Kazami.”
"Yes, sir!" Kazami Yuya habitually replied, then coughed twice in a low voice before stepping forward and adopting his best acting skills to say seriously, "Come on, Furuya."
"Hi, Kazami-senpai." Furuya Rei toned down his imposing manner and obediently followed behind his subordinate, perfectly embodying the role of a greenhorn police officer.
Hearing his boss call him "senior," Kazami Yuya felt that his ability to manage his facial expressions was being challenged like never before.
However, he will definitely not let Mr. Furuya down!
…
When the head of the public security bureau went undercover, Zhuge Tongzhi had just stepped off a multinational airline.
Carrying a rubber duck backpack that Natalie had chosen for her, the black-haired girl dragged her small suitcase and was led all the way to the terminal exit by the flight attendant's service for underage passengers.
Wearing a black baseball cap, Kiel was waiting for her there. Her signature lightning bolt bangs and sharp, resilient demeanor made Zhuge Tongzhi recognize her at a glance.
Of course, she had seen Kiel before, so O automatically marked her name when he glanced at the crowd of people picking up passengers.
"Yes, that's my parent." Zhuge Tongzhi blinked and said goodbye to the flight attendant in a cute English, "Bye-bye, beautiful big sister."
After charming the girl, she dragged her suitcase and met up with Kiel at the exit of the arrivals area.
The undercover woman's appearance hadn't changed much since the last time we met.
However, when Zhuge Tongzhi last saw Gil, the young undercover woman still had her father's blood on her cheeks, and her trembling hand was wrapped by Ethan Hondo as she gripped the cold black pistol, pointing it at her father's throat.
But El fired first.

Author's Note: Kazami, you are my pitiful working-class friend, so pathetic.
But daring to sculpt clay bones is still too ahead of its time.

Rag is struggling to handle official business.
Tragic, so tragic

Speaking of braised pork ribs
Yesterday, Chenxing passed by a dumpling shop. A large portion of the sign outside read:
Signature Braised Pork Ribs/
Chenxing stopped and laughed for two minutes, took a picture, and then left.
Signature braised pork ribs, hahaha!
…
Xiaotong went to get the experiment data.
Kiel is a very kind person, but he's always on the verge of being monitored and shot.
She remained steadfast in her desire to avenge her family and protect her younger brother.
An incredibly beautiful and powerful undercover sister!

Mwah!
