“Welcome to visit us next time!
”
Following the waitress's heartfelt voice, Fujiwara Yu and White walked out of Ramen Ogura together. He glanced down at White's still flat stomach. He now had the right to suspect that this guy's stomach might be directly connected to outer space, otherwise how could he eat five bowls of ramen without any rise or fall in his stomach.
"Wow! I haven't eaten so well in a long time. Thank you, Mr. Clare!" White patted his belly with satisfaction, thinking to himself: Sure enough, joining the CIA and choosing to repay a favor is the best decision. I shouldn't have to worry about food and drink in the future.
Fujiwara Yuu thought about how fast he ate ramen, frowned, looked at White and asked:
"Have you been hungry for a few days? The salary at the CIA is not low. Where did you spend the money?"
"Hey, I did go hungry for two days. To be more precise, I have a big appetite, but a normal meal is not enough to fill my stomach." White scratched the back of his head embarrassedly. He whispered, "I gave all my salary to the director of the orphanage. It's not easy for him to raise those children. I also hope that they can live better than I did when I was young."
Fujiwara Yuu paused. Is that really the case? This behavior could be considered a disguised way of making up for his childhood.
He just said "hmm" softly and walked towards the Jaguar XJ220 parked in the parking lot. After opening the door and getting in, he answered while fastening his seat belt:
"I will cover your three meals a day from now on, provided you work hard."
"Really? But will this cost you money, sir?"
"I don't live on the salary the CIA pays me."
When White heard this, he blinked twice in confusion. After a brief moment of brain blankness, he realized the meaning of Claire's words. He never thought that the gentleman was actually a rich man. It was amazing.
Fujiwara Yuu didn't rush to start the car. He knew White had come with a target assigned to him by the CIA. He turned his head to look at White, who was grinning almost to his ears, and said in a low voice:
"You didn't forget what Mr. Elfret asked you to bring, did you?"
"Of course I can't forget it!" White immediately put away the smile on his face. He pointed to the trunk of the car and said, "I put it in the secret compartment of the luggage. It's very safe."
[To be honest, I've been using Yeguo Reader to keep up with updates lately. It's easy to switch between sources, and has a variety of reading voices. .yeguoyuedu is available for both Android and Apple devices.]
"The safest place is you. From now on, you must memorize confidential files like this and commit them to memory. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I will pay attention to it next time."
"Go get the documents. This mission should be assigned to you in the near future. I need to keep an eye on the movements of another codenamed member of the organization."
"OK!"
White excitedly ran out of the car and took out the leather briefcase from the trunk. He put it in his arms and got into the car, then politely handed it to Claire with both hands. Fujiwara Yu took it and directly pulled out the first document. Before even reading it, he asked:
"What news did the CIA bring this time? You should have seen it in advance, right?"
"Well, the first file is about code-named member Sherry, and the second file is about a grassroots staff member. However, the identity of the grassroots staff member is rather special. She is Sherry's biological sister." White answered immediately after thinking for a while.
Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Yuu directly returned the file bag containing the second document to White, and lowered his head to carefully study the first document. It was obvious that the information on it was about the code-named member Sherry.
Shiho Miyano, female, fifteen years old, belongs to the research group, codenamed Sherry, graduated from Johns Hopkins University at the age of twelve, became a doctor in cell and developmental biology at the age of fourteen, and also has extensive research experience in biochemistry and molecular biology.
He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows at this. Graduating from a prestigious university at the age of twelve and earning a doctorate two years later—this was no ordinary achievement. Furthermore, she was able to obtain an organizational codename at such a young age based on her scientific achievements, which showed that the organization was very interested in, and even valued, scientific research.
"Shirley, I will follow up the investigation myself. I'll leave the other junior staff member to you."
"Huh?" White raised the file bag in his hand in surprise and asked in confusion, "Mr. Clare, are you not going to take a look at this document? After all, you are a grassroots member of the organization."
"There are so many grassroots personnel in this huge organization. I'm not interested in worthless targets." Fujiwara Yu handed the documents back to White and instructed, "Find a way to deal with them cleanly later. Don't leave any possibility of recovery."
"I understand. Then Mr. Claire, should I go directly to investigate tomorrow?"
"Well, grassroots organizations won't pay much attention to it, but you should also be careful not to be noticed when you act."
White scratched his neck in confusion and asked:
"Mr. Claire, there's one thing I don't quite understand. I think this grassroots employee is still valuable. She's Shirley's sister, and they must have had contact. So as long as we get her information, we can get clues about Shirley. Why do you think she's a worthless target?"
"The treatment of codename members and grassroots members is very different. This is the first time that the CIA has obtained information about the organization's scientific researchers. This shows that scientific researchers are very important to the organization. They may be concentrated in a certain research institute and have no personal freedom." Fujiwara Yu explained patiently, but did not explain everything. He left some information for White to think about on his own.
"Sir, what you mean is... the grassroots personnel are direct relatives but have no code names, which means they are not valued by the organization at all? So you are saying that this grassroots personnel has no value at all?" White came to a conclusion after thinking for a moment and asked boldly.
"Yes, that's what I mean." Fujiwara Yu said as he drove to the Beido Grand Hotel, "You'd better be cautious when following her. The organization might be using this grassroots member as a hostage to force Shirley to conduct research, and they might have people around to monitor her."
"Yeah! I'll be careful!"
The car slowly drove into the underground garage of the Beihu Zunhao Hotel. Just as the car was parked, Fujiwara Yu suddenly remembered something. He turned his head to look at White and asked:
"White, who gave you this document?"
"Huh? It's Mr. Elfret. He was the one who arranged for me to be with you." White said without hesitation.
Could it be that the teacher got this document?
Fujiwara Yuu held his chin in his hand, feeling puzzled. Could it be that someone had passed the document to the teacher? The teacher was currently wheelchair-bound and unable to travel, so his position within the CIA wasn't very high. How could such intelligence have come into his hands?
He thought for a moment and did not choose to report the news to the teacher, but reminded again:
"White, you must pay attention to safety during the follow-up investigation. Protect yourself when necessary. The mission is secondary."
"Eh? I, I understand sir."
