Chapter 1089 1097 [Okiya Subaru wants to run away] Ask for monthly ticket (づど)
After reading the email, Shuichi Akai couldn't help but repeat in a low voice: "An occasional whim, a surprising unauthorized action?"
He pondered the words that Usa used and realized that Usa must have known that "Okiya Subaru" had just sneaked into the Twin Towers. At that time, at the break of the 60-story building, when the two of them were looking at each other from afar across the blown-up communication bridge, Akai Shuichi had a lucky thought that he was standing in the shadows, and Usa might not have seen his face clearly, but only saw that there was a person there.
...And now, this possibility has been neatly eliminated.
——Either Uzo has excellent eyesight.
Or, he had already expected that "Okiya Subaru" would go to the building to join in the fun.
"Every action that has been done and is about to be done seems to be seen through by him... He is really an opponent that cannot be ignored. Fortunately, judging from the words used by Usa, he may not have discovered the 'disguise'. He just thinks that 'Okiya Subaru's' abnormal behavior does not seem like an ordinary member of a peripheral organization."
Akai Shuichi closed his phone and handed it to Okiya Subaru.
Okiya Subaru took it reluctantly, with a complicated expression as if he was receiving a death notice.
He quickly put his phone on the table beside him, and looked at Akai Shuichi's expression, his scalp tingling: "You don't really want to use this identity to continue to be his 'subordinate', do you?"
…I always feel like he will be called to some secluded place and shot to death. No, judging by Uzo's style, he might be left lying in the square when some bomber passes by, and then explode with a bang, leaving nothing behind.
However, Shuichi Akai really thought so.
He thought: "Usa probably just found out that there's something wrong with 'Okiya Subaru', but he hasn't confirmed that I'm Akai Shuichi. Otherwise, given how much importance the organization places on me, this place would have been surrounded long ago..."
Halfway through his words, seeing Okiya Subaru's pale face, Akai Shuichi had to explain:
"I have arranged people around. If the organization was planning to attack, they would have sent a message long ago. Anyway, things haven't reached the worst point yet, so don't worry."
Subaru Okiya: "..." He didn't want to rush, but his opponent was that Uzo! - Even if there was no organized encirclement, maybe tomorrow he would take a nap on the subway and miss his stop, and be stabbed to death by a passerby in a bad mood for "occupying public resources"; or when he was buying breakfast, because he looked like the convenience store clerk's ex, the newspaper clerk secretly poured a bottle of potassium cyanide or something like that in his lunch box...
Akai Shuichi didn't pay much attention to Okiya Subaru's hesitation to speak.
He was still thinking about the email that Uzo had just sent.
The meaning of this mysterious cadre was very clear - he had long known that Okiya Subaru had some private "little secrets", but he did not mind it. Instead, he was surprised by it.
Combined with what Subaru Okiya had heard before, about the rumors that Usa "harmed his fellow cadres", Shuichi Akai slowly formed a vague picture of Usa in his mind.
——He is very capable, but also has a strong personality. He is obviously not a cadre like Gin who is devoted to the organization. Instead, he feels that his own fun and experience are more important.
Shuichi Akai has never been a person who would give up opportunities because of fear of danger.
If this is the case, he secretly thought: by taking the risk of staying in this one-on-one game with Uzo, he might be able to obtain more information than originally expected.
And in this way, once he reaches a consensus with Uzo, he won't have to worry about Bourbon snitching.
——Just now, although Shuichi Akai was not sure whether Usa had seen "Okiya Subaru" in the Twin Towers, "Okiya Subaru" had indeed met Bourbon, and more importantly, he also revealed the location of the bomb to him.
At the beginning, Shuichi Akai actually wanted to use Bourbon's undercover position to reveal his identity as "not an enemy", and then induce Bourbon to help conceal the suspiciousness of "Okiya Subaru" and seek cooperation - Bourbon has obviously been targeted by Usa, and he is already very wary of the organization's cadres. Compared with Usa, "Okiya Subaru", who seems to be more friendly in every way and seems to be an innocent citizen who wants to abandon his hateful boss and take the right path, will surely win Bourbon's favor.
Akai Shuichi: "..." But this is only the most ideal situation. There must be many risks in actual implementation.
And now, with an email from Uzo, all the troubles have been solved.
...No, it should be said that Uzo cut the Gordian knot and removed other factors that might affect his "gambling fun", creating a good gaming space for "Okiya Subaru".
As he thought about it, Akai Shuichi's eyes, which were as calm as water, couldn't help but become sharp.
A smile of determination appeared on his lips, and he felt the excitement of encountering a strong enemy for the first time in a long time. He even had a vague expectation of the life-threatening situation of "contacting Usa under the identity of Okiya Subaru" in the future.
But, next to it.
Apparently some people have no expectations for this and just want to run away.
Subaru Okiya carefully looked at Shuichi Akai's expression. The more he looked, the more he felt something was wrong. He couldn't help but interrupt the FBI ace's thoughts: "...Ahem, Mr. Akai, what should we do now?"
Akai Shuichi came back to his senses and looked at Okiya Subaru: "If he comes to you again in the name of 'work', I will go there for you. In addition, I will arrange for you to leave as soon as possible."
Okiya Subaru's eyes lit up.
Akai Shuichi glanced at him and had to pour a bucket of cold water on him: "But not now - Uzo has obviously made two preparations, waiting for us to accept the challenge, and preventing you from "resigning" in any form... Honestly, even if I arrange a plane for you immediately, do you dare to take it?"
Okiya Subaru: "..."
I really don't dare...
Seeing him calm down, Akai Hide nodded: "Since Usa sent such an email, he will probably contact 'Okiya Subaru' in the near future. I will meet him a few times first to dispel his suspicion. After two weeks, I will secretly arrange for you to evacuate."
When Subaru Okiya heard the exact evacuation time, he heaved a sigh of relief—he was finally free!
But at the same time, he always had a bad feeling in his heart.
——Is it really possible to escape so easily?
Especially since Uzo discovered he had a problem…
After thinking it over, Subaru Okiya couldn't figure out where to start to prevent Usa's vicious attack.
Finally, I could only offer a little advice: "If you want to arrange a driver to pick me up at the airport, please choose someone with a good temper, good character, and no tendency to depression."
...The driver must not suddenly lose his mind and kill innocent passengers who are evacuating, or drive the passengers to the cliff and do a "You jump, I jump" with an Ouzou atmosphere...
