Chapter 61 Chapter 61 Perhaps we can still meet in the future...
Along with the reply to Rei Furuya's email, a miniature package arrived from an anonymous source.
The package was sent to an ordinary flower shop in Tokyo for Morofushi Keimitsu to pick up.
At this time when time was extremely precious and a storm was about to come, the young man with cat eyes originally didn't want to pay attention to this thing of unknown origin, but then he received a photo in his mailbox. On it was a string of numbers and a message urging him to pick up the package. The signature was a simple drawing of a pizza with lettuce falling out.
…it was actually the Mezcal that was rumored to have disappeared from the face of the earth.
After changing into his familiar blue hoodie, Zhu Fujingguang not only successfully received the express delivery, but was also given a large bouquet of roses. The clerk said it was also part of the express delivery.
The young man with cat eyes checked the bouquet inside and out twice but found nothing hidden inside. He also couldn't figure out any clues from the number and placement of the flowers. He originally wanted to give it to the little girl selling flowers on the street, but in the end he was worried and took it back to the safe house.
The package was small but heavy, and it turned out to be a mini safe.
He used the number on the email to open the safe, and a white pill rolled out.
Thinking that Mescal was originally from the medical team and knew Scotland's identity as an experimental subject, Zhu Fu Jingguang stared at the pill with a serious expression for a while, and began to rummage through the safe. After almost dismantling the safe, he finally found a note.
There was a long poem written on the note, but Zhu Fujingguang quickly recognized it. It was a code they created when they were on a mission together in Europe with Mezcal in order to facilitate communication without leaking secrets.
Although I haven't been exposed to medical knowledge in a few years, I believe this won't kill you (even if you have that kind of constitution). Before you're trapped in this cage, I suggest you eat it. Perhaps we'll have a chance to meet again in the future.
This pill is unremarkable in appearance. It looks like the vitamin C that one has to supplement because he has not had time to eat fresh vegetables during the multi-day mission. It lies quietly in Zhu Fu Jingguang's palm.
He felt that Mezcal's attitude was very subtle.
The information that Mescal provided to Zhufu Jingguang last time went beyond Scotland's coercion and inducement. In addition, during the previous cooperation in Europe, Zhufu Jingguang saw that the other party was more like a social animal who was climbing up the social ladder for fun rather than a ruthless member of the organization. That was why Zhufu Jingguang persuaded Mescal to abandon the dark and join the light at the end of the last conversation.
Judging from the recent rumors about the latter, his instigation was most likely successful.
So far, Mezcal has been very friendly towards Scotland, so friendly that he even took time out of his busy schedule to make medicine for him and sent it to him at the risk of exposing his whereabouts.
However, when it came to the most crucial drug description, Mezcal was again keeping it a secret, not directly stating its effects. He only guaranteed that even a test subject like the Scottish one would not be in danger of death if it took it.
Zhu Fujingguang knew that he would not be able to live to see the destruction of the organization, but at least there were still things he wanted to accomplish, so maybe Mescal's pill would really be useful to him - this person knew the nature of Scotland's experimental subjects better than Scotland himself.
Ever since the day when it caused trouble and caused Zhu Fu Jingguang to be temporarily marked by Jiang Gu Ling and its favorability plummeted to an irreversible level, 1207 has been silent. Even the occasional small movements and complaints it would make in the past have disappeared. It was so quiet as if it had been turned off or in hibernation. Only when Zhu Fu Jingguang occasionally called it worriedly and it responded weakly did it prove that it was actually still staying in Zhu Fu Jingguang's body.
So when Zhu Fushi Jingguang was considering the feasibility of taking the pill, 1207's voice almost made him throw the pill away: "Take it. I think Mezcal just heard that you were marked by Bourbon and got angry, so he turned into the Riddler."
Zhu Fujingguang: "..."
He wasn't as clueless as Matsuda Jinpei in this regard. Morobushi Kagemitsu could vaguely sense whether Mezcal's final words during their last video call were truly a joke. However, his heart was always solely focused on Fūya Rei, and even the coffee pheromones still barely faded, so naturally, he wouldn't dwell on that when facing other people.
After being reminded by 1207 and thinking carefully, Zhu Fujingguang began to understand Mescal's mental journey. So he sent a message to the email address: "Is it okay to send it in advance, such as now?"
Perhaps this remark made Mezcal sense Scotland's attitude, and he stopped being a riddler, replying quickly and concisely: "The sooner the better."
Just in case, before swallowing the pill, Morofushi Kagemitsu set up scheduled emails to Matsuda Jinpei and Bourbon respectively, so that no one could save him if Mezcal really had bad intentions.
There was no reaction when he first ate it, and Zhu Fujingguang continued with his previous cleaning work. Half an hour later, the gland area began to feel hot, and the coffee-flavored pheromones that were originally fading away at a slowly seemed to be stimulated by this temperature, spreading throughout his body again and wrapping him up, as if to drown him.
It wasn't painful, but there was an indescribable strange feeling that made Zhu Fu Jingguang feel like he was sitting on pins and needles.
It wasn't until another half an hour later that the body's reactions slowly returned to normal.
Tiredly postponing the scheduled email, the young man with cat eyes straightened his sweaty hair and examined his physical condition. There was nothing abnormal that could be seen with the naked eye.
When he met Matsuda Jinpei safely, he completely deleted the scheduled email and decided to leave some of the information he had to Mescal.
Jinpei Matsuda was incredibly efficient, and he finished the bomb design in just over a day. He even had most of the materials prepared for him strictly according to the designed quantities, except for two of them, which he couldn't get. If he had gotten them, he wouldn't be a bomb detective but a criminal. However, as the head of the organization's logistics team, it was easy for Scotland to get those two materials.
When Matsuda Jinpei saw him easily take out the two documents, the look in his eyes seemed to say, "After knowing you for so long, I finally feel that you are a criminal."
Before the curly-haired officer could unleash his instinct to grab the silver and handcuffs, Zhu Fujingguang reminded him that he could start teaching how to assemble a bomb.
Looking at the assembled results, Matsuda Jinpei introduced its power with some pride: just two such bombs can destroy a villa.
Zhu Fu Jingguang: “…” What a coincidence, he was going to blow up the villa.
After repeated practice and confirming that Morofushi Kagemitsu could assemble the bomb as quickly as possible, Matsuda Jinpei decided to go back.
Before he had time to wonder why the curly-haired young man was in such a hurry to go back, the latter asked him for pheromone remover.
"Last time, Hagi seemed to have discovered that I came out to see you, but his reaction was not as big as before." The implication was that it would be better not to let Hagihara Kenji discover that he came to see Midorikawa Yui again.
Thinking of what Matsuda Jinpei had told him before about Kenji Hagiwara's deeds, Morofushi Kagemitsu readily took out the pheromone remover. After all, it was better not to add uncontrollable factors at this point in time.
The materials for the bomb and the method for assembling it were all there, and the only problem left was where to hide them.
The clever Zhu Fu Jingguang naturally took this into consideration.
On the day he was temporarily marked by Fōtani Rei, the clothes he was wearing and the clothes Fōtani Rei later prepared for him, even after being washed in the washing machine, the scent of grape oolong and coffee could still be sensed from several meters away, and it was unlikely to dissipate in the near future.
Zhu Fujingguang carefully hid the various parts of the bomb in his clothes.
Thanks to Bourbon, a well-known trendy man in Mihua, both sets of clothes have many small decorations and pockets. With the help of needlework, they are not too abrupt after hiding the materials. If asked, just say that they are heavy work.
The cat-eyed young man who had stomachache and couldn't sleep because of the smell of coffee that night, now seems to be able to live in peace with the smell of coffee - if you ignore his increasingly pale face.
For the next two days, Zhu Fujingguang either stayed at the organization's base or in his own safe house.
Pisco's battle with Rum ultimately ended in defeat at the hands of Rum's subordinate, Bourbon. Vermouth's return of Mezcal's body turned out to be a fake. Someone resembling Ley was spotted in Tokyo. The Hokkaido base fell under the siege of the Public Security Bureau... Staying at the base, you'll hear all sorts of true and false news. Internal and external troubles have left the people in a state of panic. Even if Morobushi Kagemitsu isn't currently affiliated with the Public Security Bureau, he can infer from recent events that the Public Security Bureau will launch a general offensive against the organization's two most important locations in the near future.
One is the largest base in Tokyo, and the other is the organization’s real headquarters - Tottori Prefecture.
The place where China Kato's ancestors lived, the location of the pharmaceutical company's branch, and most importantly, in the email that Rei Furuya sent to "Cat" that day, he mentioned a surprising discovery: there is a building in Tottori Prefecture that is a one-to-one replica of the house he painted.
And that building, located inside the pharmaceutical factory, was disguised as an abandoned factory where an experimental accident had occurred.
Because Scotland is currently the most stable one among the junior leaders of the organization, Kashasa, who was already feeling guilty after being exposed by him, saw that Pisco was about to fall, so he quickly clung to the thigh of his current boss, and hinted at Scotland whether he had already thought about how to escape and whether he could take him with him. There were some channels of the logistics team that Scotland didn't know before, but now he can provide all these and the information he knew about Pisco.
Scotland was in a good mood when he unexpectedly learned that the pharmaceutical company in Tottori Prefecture was actually registered under the name of Pisco. He smiled and praised his subordinate who had come to the right path, and generously said that the subordinate could take half of the logistics team's working capital in Tokyo and run away, and his people would pick him up.
Then he gave Kashasa the location of a dock that the public security had paid close attention to, and immediately sent this location and the information that Kashasa had just provided to Furuya Zero in the identity of "Cat" after the other party left the organization's base.
After that extremely brief phone call, Furuya Rei and "Cat" tacitly agreed not to talk on the phone again, and instead relied solely on emails to communicate.
Unfortunately, before he could act out the scene of "his capable subordinate was brutally arrested by the police, and he was heartbroken and vowed to take back everything from the logistics team" and then kick Pisco again when he was down, hoping to get all the information about the pharmaceutical company, the number that had been silent for a long time finally sent a message again.
Come back.
