Chapter 34: 100 Overlord Tickets (Two-in-One) It’s just…
10:00 AM, Haneda Airport.
Zhu Fu Jingguang appeared in the VIP waiting room pulling a small suitcase.
Although Rei Furuya was so busy these days that he completely forgot to send him a message, Bourbon, who was very conscientious in his mission, still remembered to buy plane tickets for the two of them.
After receiving the information from the airline, Zhu Fujingguang came to the airport according to the flight information. He learned from the last lesson and brought a suitcase with him this time.
The blond young man arrived here earlier than Zhu Fujingguang and was resting with his eyes closed. The dark circles under his eyes that even his chocolate skin color could not completely cover up clearly showed that he had not had a good time in the past few days.
This made Zhu Fujingguang feel a little surprised.
Because in his guess, Fūya Rei, who has found his sweetheart, should be enjoying their world of two. At most, he would be dissatisfied that they had to separate to go on a mission while they were still in the passionate period of love.
But Rei Furuya doesn't look like someone in the honeymoon period at all.
Could it be that Zero is in love with someone? It's not impossible that after all the hard work, he or she might already be in love with someone else.
But even if you put aside the filter of childhood sweetness, Morobushi Jingguang still thinks that Furutani Rei is an excellent person who is close to perfect, whether in appearance, ability or honey trap. Is there really anyone who can face Furutani Rei's sincere pursuit and cruelly reject him?
I don’t know if it was because he felt Zhu Fu Jingguang’s gaze or heard the movement of the suitcase’s wheels, but Bourbon loosened his arm that was covering his eyes, and his purple-gray eyes looked at Zhu Fu Jingguang, then he was stunned for a moment.
Today, Zhu Fujingguang wore a white shirt with a brown windbreaker on the outside, linen casual pants and white sneakers on the bottom. With his handsome and fair face, he looked like a freshman taking advantage of the vacation to travel.
And Bourbon was still wearing his classic suit, which was incompatible with Zhu Fujingguang's painting style.
Bourbon: “…”
He straightened his body and smiled. "Looking at it this way, it seems I'm not being professional enough. After we land there, will you accompany me to buy some new clothes, Wei Jun?"
It was as if the incident of leaving alone three days ago and having no news since then had never happened.
Morofushi Kagemitsu, whose pseudonym is Midorikawa Yui: "..."
That's right, he was the only one affected. He probably had no memory of what happened before he received the call that day.
The young man with cat eyes stepped forward with a smile and gestured, "Okay, Tou."
As it turns out, even if it wasn't for the purpose of matching Zhu Fujingguang's style, Bourbon would still go shopping for clothes after getting off the plane.
Because of the heat that hit him after leaving the airport, Bourbon silently moved closer to a place where the airport's air conditioning was still lingering.
He finally understood why Scotland had just gone to the bathroom to change his inner clothes. It seemed that he had changed his long-sleeved shirt into a short-sleeved one.
Sure enough, Zhu Fujingguang slowly took off the windbreaker, revealing the short-sleeved T-shirt underneath, and looked at Bourbon with a half-smile in his eyes.
Bourbon: “…”
Bourbon turned his head away in a rare look of frustration.
Zhu Fujingguang sighed in his heart: What has Zero been busy with these days? It is really too inappropriate for Zero to make such a low-level mistake as to even forget to prepare clothes according to the situation of the mission.
Without further internal fighting, the two took a taxi and headed straight to a large shopping mall near the apartment.
The driver looked at Zhu Fujingguang's fair skin, which was obviously different from that of the locals, and Bourbon's appearance, whose skin color matched but hair color did not, and immediately realized that the two were foreigners.
He was a warm-hearted person, so he started chatting with the two people in English: "You two are still college students, right? Are you here for tourism?"
Bourbon laughed, pointing to his vest, and said in fluent English: "Don't look at us like this, we have actually been working for several years."
The driver was surprised.
Bourbon reached out and held Zhu Fujingguang's hand again, and raised it slightly: "I finally took the annual leave this time, and came here specially to accompany my lover."
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
He got into the role really quickly, and this was a driver who had nothing to do with the mission.
But then he thought again and decided that it would be a safe approach to have outsiders verify the effect of his acting as soon as possible, so he smiled gently and moved his upper body slightly closer to Bourbon, trying to create an atmosphere of intimacy between the two of them.
The driver was very supportive and praised them for being a well-matched AO couple, with a compatibility of over 90%!
The compatibility is actually 100% between two people: "..."
After a brief silence, Bourbon asked if there were any places in the local area suitable for couples to go, with a good environment and privacy.
The driver had a meaningful look on his face that said "I understand, I understand", but Zhu Fujingguang understood that Bourbon asked this just so that if the emotional card really didn't work, he could lure the target to a suitable place for easier action.
Although Bourbon's usual personality in the organization is aloof and sarcastic, when he switches to the friendly state of Amuro Toru, most people can let down their guard against him, start talking quite quickly, and can be guided by him to say what they want to hear, thus minimizing the intake of junk information.
By the time Bourbon and Morobushi Kagemitsu arrived at their destination, the driver had already listed all the mid-range and high-end places in the city, and even in central and southern Taiwan, suitable for couples and families. While the driver couldn't actually experience these places, his guests had, so he listed their pros and cons, along with a number of hidden gems.
When he got out of the car and was about to walk into the mall, Zhu Fujingguang noticed that his hand was still being held by Bourbon. He tried to pull his hand away, but it was no use.
Not wanting to spoil their current couple disguise in public, he could only stare at Bourbon with his cat eyes, who seemed completely unaware of his intention to pull his hand away.
Oh, this guy has now switched to Amuro Toru mode.
Amuro Toru smiled fondly, tilting his head to whisper softly in Morobushi Kagemitsu's ear, "If sign language isn't convenient, just type on your phone. We need to get into character quickly. Kato Hiroyuki isn't a fool. If he finds out, all our efforts will be wasted. If we can avoid bloodshed, we should, don't we, Scotland?"
Although they said such cruel words, to outsiders they were just a couple in the honeymoon period of their love affair.
When Amuro Toru spoke, the hot air inevitably sprayed onto Morobushi Kagemitsu's ears. The latter restrained himself and did not dodge.
The young man with cat eyes was silent for a moment, then turned his head slightly and rubbed Amuro Toru's cheek.
Now it was Toru Amuro's turn to freeze.
Feeling that he had turned the game around, Zhu Fujingguang stood up straight: Even if he had made such a decision, it was impossible for him to not be angry at all when facing Furuya Rei, who obviously didn't like him but still made such ambiguous moves to take advantage of him.
Now I feel comfortable.
After coming to his senses, Amuro Toru smiled brightly and pulled Morofushi Keimitsu into a chain men's clothing store.
He had said before that he wanted Midorikawa Yui to accompany him to buy clothes, but now, taking advantage of the fact that she had no hands free to use sign language and that her typing speed on her phone could not match his speed in picking up clothes, he forced her to try on one set of clothes after another, and then simultaneously picked up the same style for herself as "couple outfits."
In the end, he pretended to lose himself in the flattery of the shopping guide, bought all the clothes that Zhu Fujingguang tried on, and said that he would supervise his lover to change an outfit every day to ensure that there would be no repetitions.
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
The young man with cat eyes laughed in anger, and then dragged a blond and dark-skinned guy to another men's clothing store. He followed the same method and made Toru Amuro change a lot of clothes preemptively.
Finally, the two people came out of the store, each carrying a large and small bag, looked at each other, and then started laughing at the same time.
The character of "not being able to speak" has now been engraved into Morofushi Kagemitsu's instinct, so even though he is laughing, he still has to restrain himself from making any sound. It is much more difficult for him to hold back his laughter than for Amuro Toru.
Passersby looked at the two well-dressed handsome men standing there, laughing so hard that their waists were bent, and shook their heads regretfully and walked away.
It was unknown how long it was before the two of them straightened up and wiped the tears from the corners of their eyes.
The moment they raised their eyes, they both saw the genuine smile in each other's eyes, and subconsciously looked away because of this smile.
"Furugaya Rei's favorability +1! Even a mosquito leg is meat..."
Oh no, Zhu Fu Jingguang thought.
The scene of them joking and persecuting each other just now was too familiar and too nostalgic. Facing familiar people and familiar feelings, Zhu Fu Jingguang was unable to control his emotions for a while, and only now realized that he had crossed the line.
Amuro Toru cleared his throat, his expression becoming gentle and reliable again, as if the man who just smiled like a childish tenor wasn't himself: "Since the clothes have been bought, let's go back and put our things away."
They deliberately chose a shopping mall near their residence, so now they only need to walk a few minutes to reach the apartment where they will live for the next half month.
Although there was no communication between them after that, the atmosphere was better than at the beginning when they were calling each other by name and holding hands.
The reason they chose to live here was naturally because their target, Hiroyuki Kato, had also booked an apartment here, and they had to create a reasonable encounter that would not arouse the other party's suspicion.
Coincidentally, the landlord of this private apartment is Japanese, so the two of them are now distant relatives of the landlord who were invited to visit. Just in case, they even exchanged identification information and photos with the landlord to avoid being confused if they ran into each other one day.
This place is in the tropics and the climate is already hot. When they got off the car, they found that the ground was wet, which meant that it had just rained heavily. Instead of cooling down the air, it made the air sticky and uncomfortable.
So Toru Amuro, who was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and a vest, put down the bags in his hands and went into the shower immediately.
Zhu Fujingguang walked around the apartment.
In addition to the routine inspection for monitoring equipment and the surrounding environment, we also carefully looked at the internal structure of the apartment.
There are two bedrooms and two living rooms, and the two bedrooms are facing each other. The balcony of one of the bedrooms faces the living room of the target's residence. Zhu Fu Jingguang moved into the other bedroom on his own initiative and took some of the new clothes from the pile and hung them in the closet - the washing machine could not wash so many clothes at one time.
The open kitchen is quite large and is equipped with all the basic kitchen utensils. There are even a few bottles of beer and drinks in the double-door refrigerator.
There is only one shared bathroom, which is currently being used by Rei Jōgō.
The sound of splashing water came from inside. Zhu Fujingguang, who was about to go back to his room to rest after inspecting the living room and the balcony, suddenly found that the mobile phone in his pocket began to vibrate.
He took it out and took a look.
It is the mobile phone that belongs exclusively to "Cat".
Zhu Fu Jingguang took the phone, looked at the caller ID, then looked at the bathroom where the sound of water splashed, and question marks popped up in his head.
But since the person who initiated the call is not afraid of being exposed, then the person who answered the call, whose "cat" vest has not been removed, has nothing to fear either.
After all, he and Rei Furuya will be together for a long time, and the other party will not go without calling "Cat" for that long.
The magical thing was that after Zhu Fujingguang pressed the call button, there was no sound of water in the receiver.
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
The case was solved. Rei Furuya might have left the shower head on - although it was more likely to save water and use another mobile phone to play shower sounds - and then climbed through the bathroom window to go somewhere else before making the call.
After the call was connected, perhaps because he hadn't spoken for three days, his vocal cords became a little hoarse again, so Zhu Fu Jingguang didn't shout "zero" as usual.
After a few seconds of silence on both ends of the line, Furuya Rei finally spoke apologetically, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cat, I clearly agreed to call you the next day, but in the end I didn't do it because of an emergency..."
He paused, and apologized again carefully for this trivial matter in a mundane sense: "Sorry."
In fact, this is really a very small matter. After all, that day, Furiya Rei said that he would call "Cat" the next day, but he did not say why he made the call. Obviously, he did not want to say anything important.
It was just a one-time, minor breach of trust.
When he didn't receive the call that day, Morofushi Jingguang realized that he had been forgotten by Furuya Rei, but he would not blame him.
But at this moment, when he heard the heartfelt apology from Fūya Rei on the other end of the phone, the former undercover investigator, whose eyes had never turned red despite suffering severe injuries, felt a slight soreness in his nose.
A very unfamiliar emotion came over me.
Zhu Fu Jingguang thought about it and realized belatedly that this was "grievance".
For Rei Furuya, it's a pity that other people's affairs take precedence over his own.
In his original world, ever since meeting Rei Furuya as a child, Rei has always protected Morobushi Keimitsu well. While warm on the outside but cold on the inside, Morobushi Keimitsu truly cares for very few people. Initially, it was only Rei Furuya and Morobushi Takaaki, and after entering the police academy, three of his classmates joined him. Naturally, none of these people ever made him feel "wronged."
Be it Scotland or "Cat", in these short six months, they were ultimately unable to become anyone other than Falling Valley Zero.
I had worried before that Rei Furuya might actually fall in love with me, but it seems I was being overly worried.
I laughed at myself in my mind, but in reality only a few seconds passed.
But these few seconds were enough to make the atmosphere of the phone call even heavier, so Zhu Fujingguang wanted to smile and say "It's okay".
He found that he couldn't say this short sentence, so he changed it to: "Zero has more important things to do, I understand."
After he said this, Zhu Fujingguang felt that there seemed to be something wrong with what he said.
And Furuya Rei's reaction also confirmed this: "I will put Mr. 'Cat''s affairs first in my personal affairs from now on!"
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
Should he praise Zero for being very rigorous in adding the premise of "private matter" or should he complain that this sentence sounded like something a scumbag would say?
In the end, he just said: "It's not necessary."
Zhu Fujingguang endured it for a while, but still couldn't help but ask: "Did something happen to you that day?"
This time, the silent person turned out to be Rei Furuya.
As soon as he said that, Zhu Fujingguang began to regret it. Why did he want to make trouble for himself and Zero at the same time?
Just when he was about to change the subject, Furuya Rei spoke up: "There's news about the person I've been looking for."
Don’t ask anymore, Zhu Fu Jingguang.
I warned myself inwardly, but my mouth seemed to have its own thoughts: "The one I've been looking for?"
Furuya Rei was silent for a moment. It was obvious that he didn't want to bring up this topic with the "cat," but for some reason he still answered, "There's someone I... care about very much. But I can't remember his appearance or name, so it's very difficult to find him."
Don’t ask anymore, Zhu Fu Jingguang!
"Did you find it?"
Zhu Fushigami had no idea what he was doing at the moment. He knew the answer clearly, from seeing the tired and depressed look on Furuya Rei's face—
"No," Furuya Rei added, "Although the conditions were very close to what I was looking for, when I saw the photo, my instinct told me that it wasn't this person."
Reason finally regained control of his body, and Morofushi Jingguang decided to let himself and Furuya Lingyi go without asking any further questions.
Picking and choosing from the intelligence database in his brain, Zhu Fujingguang found some information from the logistics team that had little to do with the logistics team and was some time away from now and told it to Furuya Ling.
After all, I have just been in charge of the logistics team for a short time, so I need to be cautious in everything I do.
As usual, Fūya Rei said that he had written down the information, and habitually asked him if there was anything he wanted to know.
Actually, there was. Morofushi Kagemitsu needed to get some information from Shirley, but after contacting the logistics team, he realized that Shirley's identity was too sensitive. In addition, Miyano Akemi had already asked him to pass on the information, so there was no need for Furuya Rei to take this risk.
In addition, we also need to know the information about Tennessee, that is, Kenji Hagiwara, but it has been several days since the meeting between Keimitsu Morofushi and Jinpei Matsuda, and the latter has not conveyed any new information, and no one knows what the situation is.
Morofushi Jingguang was distracted for a moment: Let's see if it is necessary to send someone to follow Matsuda. He is not at ease with Hagiwara who looks completely black now.
"Not yet. If Zero doesn't have anything else to say, then that's it for now."
If we talk a little longer, it seems that when Bourbon comes out of the bathroom, he will have to face Scotland's gaze of "Is this the speed at which the intelligence team takes showers? I've never seen you take so long in the safe house before."
Zhu Fujingguang didn't want to express so many meanings with his eyes, it was very tiring.
In the end, Furuya Rei didn't understand his implicit kindness, and instead expressed concern with a hint of grievance: "Is Mr. Cat busy this time too?"
This was in response to the last time that Keimitsu Morobushi said on the phone, "I'm really tired these days, so I need to have a good rest," in order to avoid chatting with Rei Furuya.
The same excuse didn't work a second time, so Zhu Fujingguang decided to tell the truth from another angle: "Because I went somewhere for something, it's not very convenient to talk on the phone here."
Zhu Fushigi Jingguang thought that after such rejections happened many times, the emotionally intelligent Amuro Toru would naturally understand the "cat's" intention to distance himself, and then they would naturally be able to bring this relationship, which had long exceeded the social distance of "collaborators", back to normal.
As expected, the considerate Toru Amuro followed up on his words: "Then next time, Mr. Cat, please give me enough time."
Zhu Fu Jingguang chuckled: This time Zero has learned his lesson and didn't make any more appointments with specific dates like "tomorrow".
After hanging up the phone, some time passed and when Zhu Fujingguang walked out of the room, he happened to see Furuya Ling coming out of the bathroom wiping his wet hair.
It's a battle bath in every sense of the word.
Seeing the faint smile in Zhu Fu Jingguang's eyes, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Scotland, are you in a good mood now?"
Zhu Fujingguang replied in sign language as a matter of course: "You can see the sea from the room. It's quite beautiful."
This is also the reason why the mission subject chooses to stay here on vacation.
This apartment is a true sea view room. The higher the floor, the better the view, and you can see the beautiful sea of this coastal city.
Although Japan is also an island country and it is not difficult to see the sea, the tropical sea has a different flavor after all.
1207 suddenly interrupted, "Yeah, yeah, if you were by the window at night...it would be really romantic!"
Zhu Fu Jingguang almost couldn't control his expression when he heard this: "You've been so quiet lately, what have you been doing?"
1207 complained, "You guys haven't made any progress. I'm bored, so I'm planning on learning some physiology. After all, it's obvious you don't know much about this."
Zhu Fu Jingguang: “…” He really didn’t try to find out. After all, the frequency of his estrus was so low that he thought it could be ignored.
He wanted to say that there was no need to understand, but he didn't want 1207 to notice his negative attitude towards the strategy, so he stopped talking.
Bourbon had no idea what kind of conversation had just taken place in Zhufu Jingguang's mind. He just snorted and didn't refute what Zhufu Jingguang said.
But he also hinted at something: "For you now, this mission is no different from a vacation." Otherwise, you wouldn't have the leisure to appreciate the scenery.
indeed.
This mission itself does not involve any complex forces, and Scotland only plays a supporting role in the early stages. At least for now, it is indeed very easy compared to other missions.
But Zhu Fushi Jingguang had long been accustomed to the busy state. In addition, in order to take over the management of the logistics team from Rum as soon as possible, he added the management authority of the logistics team's tasks to his notebook, preparing to handle affairs during the free time of this mission.
He must show off his hard work to Zero.
So Scotland, in a rare leisurely pose, leaned his upper body against the bedroom door frame and gestured with his hands: "I brought other things to deal with."
His mini suitcase couldn't hold any paper documents, and his phone could only be used to check and process some simple emails.
I don’t know if Bourbon understood his hint - it seems that he didn’t understand it at all - so he must have understood it.
Bourbon was willing to change his previous attitude and take the initiative to approach Scotland. Wasn't it just for the intelligence and power of the logistics team?
As a "cat", he can't reveal too much to Rei Furuya at once, but it's normal that Bourbon, who is with Scotland every day and is deeply loved by Scotland, would know some trivial information about the logistics team, right?
Bourbon laughed, took two steps forward, and stopped one step away from Zhufu Jingguang.
He was only wearing a bathrobe tied loosely, and the towel he had used to dry his hair was draped around his neck, catching the water droplets dripping from the ends of his hair.
The sweet smell of milk was obvious, but it was hard to tell whether it was the smell of shower gel or shampoo. Combined with the light smell of coffee evaporated by body temperature, Zhu Fujingguang remembered the latte he drank that morning.
Approaching with such an alluring attitude, Bourbon opened his mouth and said, "Want to go eat all the beef noodles on this street together later?"
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
Zhu Fujingguang: “?”
