Fujiwara Yu, who was being educated by his subordinates, showed a harmless smile. He reached out and pressed the button to close the hatch. As for Kenzo Masuyama's body, it was naturally left on the 75th floor and not taken away.
He glanced at White who was flying the helicopter, and instead of making a call, he sent a message asking Mingmei to take good care of Shiho, who was about to lose the effect of the medicine and shrink into the size of a child.
At the same time, he also sent an email to Kudo, asking him to trick the three children of the Junior Detective Team. After all, he had other things to do and could not meet up with them in Building B.
"Mr. Clare, this terrorist attack was carried out by an organization, right? Is their only goal to kill Senator Kou?" White asked as he controlled the helicopter to fly back to its original location.
After receiving the reply, Fujiwara Yu used his mobile phone to search for information about Kenzo Masuyama. He did not answer this question, nor did he intend to reveal the information about meeting Vermouth. After all, he was wary of White.
CIA people are not as trustworthy as FBI people. At least his father has experienced betrayal, so he has to be on guard. There are some things that don't need to be told, so just hide them.
After finding out Masuyama Kenzo's address, he forwarded it directly to Akai Shuichi and changed the subject:
"Well, is there any movement from the CIA recently? I feel like the teacher hasn't assigned any tasks to us lately."
"There's nothing special going on, right? As for the mission, hasn't it always been about investigating the organization?" White sometimes felt that the CIA wasn't very interested in the organization, just like they had only customized a simple intelligence mission before. They had clearly obtained Shirley's information, but hadn't specified what they were going to do to her.
After thinking for a moment, Fujiwara Yu took out his cell phone and called his teacher Elfret Adler after a long time.
After three busy tones, the call was finally connected, and a familiar voice came from the other end:
"Claire, you called to report in person. Something bad must have happened, right?"
"Teacher, you know everything about my actions, don't you?" Fujiwara Yuu paused, looking down at the neon night scene outside the window, squinting his eyes. "Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi was executed by the organization, and another clue we had was lost. Also, member Masuyama Kenzo is confirmed dead from a gunshot wound, and we're not sure who was responsible."
Elfret frowned slightly when he heard this. The CIA didn't have many clues to begin with, and now they had lost someone who could reveal the organization's intelligence, which was very disadvantageous for them.
After a long silence, he picked up the document in front of him and replied in a deep voice:
"The organization has probably caused quite a stir this time. You and White should be careful during this period. Don't provoke a rabid dog during its outbreak. If the clues are broken, then they are broken. You should also try not to meet with Hondou Eikai in the near future."
"Okay, teacher. I won't bother you anymore. I still have a lot of things to deal with."
"Well, be safe."
White glanced back and saw Claire lowering his head, thinking about something. He said:
"Mr. Claire, do we need to go further into Itakura Taku?"
"Of course we must, and we must protect him."
Fujiwara Yuu felt something was amiss. Shouldn't the CIA have been more aggressive at this critical juncture? Why did they back down?
He really couldn't understand what the CIA top brass were thinking. If they just dealt with things coldly every time something happened, he would never be able to overthrow the organization in his lifetime.
Fujiwara Yu leaned back in his seat in annoyance. It was not until he returned to Tokyo and got off the helicopter that he received a call from Akai Shuichi. When he heard the first sentence, his annoyance became even worse.
Akai Shuichi leaned against the car door, looking at the mansion in the distance, which had barely been preserved thanks to the efforts of the firefighters. He adjusted the position of his headset, struck a match to light a cigarette, and said calmly:
"When Judy and I arrived here, the house had already been burned to the ground. The organization must have decided to execute him long ago, so they set it on fire in advance."
"Hehe, this is indeed what they would do, to destroy all suspicious parts." Fujiwara Yu sneered. Fortunately, he was well prepared and sent Shigehiko Tsuchiguchi's family to the United States in advance.
Those who were granted witness protection could at least stay alive, which was why Shigehiko Tōguchi was willing to cooperate with him. When Tōguchi first came into contact with the organization, he was completely unaware of its terrifying nature. His mind was solely focused on climbing to a higher position, but he didn't consider what kind of contribution he would make to the organization after reaching that level.
Human greed is enough to blind their eyes, and by the time they wake up... they have already become part of it.
Akai Shuichi slowly exhaled a smoke ring. He looked at the white envelope on the hood and said with a slight smile:
"But it's not like there's no good news. Someone left a letter here for you."
Fujiwara Yuu looked bewildered. Could it be that the organization's undercover agents had some clues to pass on to me? No, that was impossible. They couldn't possibly do such a dangerous thing.
He had a vague guess in his mind, but he was not sure. Just when he was about to ask for clarification, a familiar English word came out of Akai Shuichi's mouth:
"Vermouth, vermouth, is no stranger to us."
"Why would Vermouth leave a letter for me? Is this... a provocation?" Fujiwara Yu didn't expect that his guess was correct. He put one hand in his pocket unhappily and asked coldly.
Akai Shuichi shrugged his shoulders. He didn't know much about Vermouth, and replied:
"Maybe. No matter what this woman does, it's not surprising."
"Open the letter and read it to me."
Shuichi Akai curled the corners of his mouth. Claire's actions showed that he was confident in him. It was also very important for him to confirm that his partner trusted him.
He was in a good mood, and his tone when reading the letter was much more lighthearted than before:
"Meeting you tonight is a surprise to me, but it means we are destined to be together. Dear X, I believe we will meet again on a grander stage. Until then, please hold on to your expectations."
"...Isn't this just a provocation to me?" Fujiwara Yu rolled his eyes. What fate and expectations? This woman must be crazy. She acts as if they should be very familiar with each other.
"You ask me, and I can't answer you, but I always feel that this letter is quite ambiguous." Akai Shuichi noticed the red mark at the signature and said jokingly, "There's a lip print at the signature, and they still call you dear X. Claire, you wouldn't betray Vermouth..."
"Get lost, you're the one selling your looks."
"I didn't say anything."
"Akai Shuichi, do you believe that I can dismantle your car?"
Akai Shuichi thought of what Judy had said to him, a smile appeared in his eyes, and he gave a friendly reminder:
"Claire, as a partner, I must remind you that the woman is not as young as she looks."
"Oh, so?"
"Don't get yourself involved."
"roll!!!"
