Chapter 1054 1062 [One undercover, two undercovers, three...]
Thinking of this, a dark silhouette named "Uzo" seemed to slowly emerge in Amuro Toru's mind.
He stared at the illusory figure with a slightly gloomy look in his eyes, believing that one day he would be able to pierce through the fog and see Wuzo's true face.
And that time will definitely not be too far away.
…
When Toru Amuro was a little wary and curious about what Usa really looked like.
On the other side, in Okiya Subaru's apartment.
…
Subaru Okiya returned home and turned on the light after a while.
He drew the curtains tightly, hesitated for a moment, and glanced out through the gap in the curtains.
Of course I saw nothing.
In the corner of the room, there was a tall man wearing a knitted hat.
Shuichi Akai had already sneaked into this apartment with ease when he tipped off Subaru Okiya and told him that "someone was following him."
At this time, seeing Okiya Subaru looking out secretly, he whispered a reminder:
"Don't look for him anymore. The way you looked at your phone just now was too obvious. He should have known that you were exposed."
“…I see.” Okiya Subaru nodded with mixed feelings. He withdrew his gaze from the window and carefully tucked in the corners of the curtains.
Then he turned to Akai Shuichi and said tiredly: "I unexpectedly encountered Uzo again - four attacks in one night. Fortunately, I only encountered two. It seems that Uzo is not coming for me."
As Okiya Subaru spoke, he sighed.
In the past, he always thought that he had a very strong tendency to get involved in things. It was not until later, when he had fewer and fewer acquaintances, that this tendency to get involved in things gradually subsided.
But now it seems that even when this physical condition was at its peak, the "frequent murders" that troubled him were nothing compared to what he encountered today at the "Uzo Amusement Park".
...The new boss is so scary.
…
When Shuichi Akai heard "attacks from all sides", he nodded calmly.
After all, the FBI ace is a man who has seen the world. In addition, he had heard a lot of horrific rumors about "Uzo" from Okiya Subaru before. When he heard them again now, he no longer felt the shock he had when he first heard them.
Compared to this, Akai Shuichi thinks another thing is more worthy of attention:
"You ran into Uzo by chance, so why is Amuro Toru stalking you now? —He was also present at tonight's incident?"
Okiya Subaru was startled: "Do you know that Boss Amuro?"
Akai Hide nodded. They were all undercover agents in the same organization, and they were even undercover agents who had infiltrated the organization together five years ago. Their abilities were not too different. Of course, he knew "Bourbon" and they had even been on several missions together.
——That’s right, although there is no substantial evidence, Shuichi Akai always feels that Toru Amuro is actually an undercover agent, and is very likely related to the island country’s police.
Because four years ago, in their usual three-person team, there was another person codenamed "Scotch Whisky". That person often went on missions with him and Bourbon and was also an undercover agent.
After infiltrating the organization for a year, "Scotch Whisky"'s undercover identity was unfortunately exposed. He fled to the rooftop and shot himself.
Shuichi Akai failed to stop the attack and noticed someone approaching, so he immediately took the blame for "shooting the undercover agent" and pretended that he had just executed a rat.
However, what surprised Shuichi Akai was that Toru Amuro, who arrived a step later, was not shocked by the fact that "Scotch was actually an undercover agent", nor did he verify the authenticity. Instead, he ran to confirm the life or death of "Scotch Whisky". When he found that the person was really dead, he looked like he wanted to shoot Shuichi Akai... Shuichi Akai stood silently by and watched, thinking to himself, if it was Gin instead of himself, the killer Gin Nao would be ecstatic on the spot - because the corpse of a "rat" successfully caught another suspicious one...
At that time, Shuichi Akai thought that with Toru Amuro's personality, he might not be able to lie down for long before his identity would be exposed.
Who would have thought that now, among the three undercover agents, only "Bourbon" had successfully stayed in the organization, and was becoming more and more like a real bottle of wine - if two of the three people in the same period had not had big problems, causing Bourbon to be more or less suspected and exposing some doubts, otherwise Amuro Toru would probably have climbed to a higher position by now.
After more than two years, when he met Toru Amuro again, Shuichi Akai couldn't help but recall that complicated undercover time.
Okiya Subaru was a little surprised. He didn't expect that someone as powerful as Akai Shuichi would know Amuro Toru.
“……”Could it be that Toru Amuro is not actually a “senior employee under Usa”, but rather… a special-grade employee?
…
Shuichi Akai is not the terrible Uzo.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
Subaru Okiya couldn't help but confirm his guess with him: "That Boss Amuro is the subordinate that Usa has taken a fancy to, right?"
"...Huh?" Akai Shuichi came back to his senses and looked at him in surprise, "No."
Shuichi Akai remembered that before he left the organization, Toru Amuro had already joined Rum. Now that so much time has passed, theoretically, this "lone wolf" should only listen to the orders of Rum and the boss.
A person should not have two code names. "Uzo" cannot be "Rum" himself.
Moreover, given the position that Akai Shuichi had when he was an undercover agent, he had never heard of "Uzo". This shows that Uzo was most likely a cadre who had only started to emerge in the past two years, or had just been transferred to Tokyo from somewhere else. Regardless of whether he was a newcomer or an outsider, it was impossible for him to suddenly ride on the head of "Bourbon".
Okiya Subaru was stunned. Akai Shuichi's answer was completely contrary to what he firmly believed tonight. He couldn't help but blurt out: "How do you know he's not?"
"..." Akai Shuichi tapped his cigarette butt on the ashtray and fell silent: How should I explain these complicated situations to a peripheral member... Forget it, Okiya Subaru will be leaving soon anyway, and it would be bad for him to know too much.
And although "Bourbon" does not belong to the FBI, after all, we are all undercover agents, so we can say that we have the same goal...
Shuichi Akai was reliable for once, and did not sell out his former colleague. He only said: "Although Toru Amuro is not Usa's subordinate, he is also a troublesome guy. Be careful when you meet him."
“……”Okiya Subaru looked like he had a lot of questions.
However, seeing that Akai Shuichi didn't want to answer, he politely didn't ask any more questions.
Although Akai Shuichi looked calmer than Okiya Subaru, he actually had some doubts in his heart.
——Why did Bourbon get involved with Usa and was even thought by Subaru Okiya to be Usa’s subordinate?
Could it be that these two people are working together to carry out some secret mission?
