Chapter 1090 1098 [Akai Shuichi's Weak Area]
Akai Shuichi looked at Okiya Subaru in silence. He suddenly realized that Okiya Subaru's psychological shadow on Usa seemed to be greater than he thought.
Is Uzo really that scary?
Shuichi Akai couldn't help but recall the figure in black that he saw through the broken section of Building B not long ago... The aura was indeed quite strong, but it didn't seem to be scary to the extent.
In fact, there is no need to rush this matter - since Wu Zuo has already discovered the abnormality of "Okiya Subaru", it will probably not be long before he will ask "Okiya Subaru" to go out for "work". At that time, if I go there in place of Okiya Subaru, I will naturally know more about Wu Zuo.
…
Therefore, now, Shuichi Akai simply recalled Okiya Subaru's description of Usa without thinking too much about it.
——Thinking too much now may affect your actual judgment.
He turned to look at the real Okiya Subaru and got back to business: "As for the two weeks before your evacuation..."
At this point, Akai Shuichi couldn't help but pause.
——In fact, the safest approach is for him to play the role of Okiya Subaru throughout the next two weeks.
But Shuichi Akai is actually very busy. In addition to Uzo, he is also keeping an eye on Vermouth. He has to conceal his identity from time to time to contact some peripheral members of the organization and try to obtain more information. He also has to find time to learn disguise and try to master the method of disguising himself as "Okiya Subaru" in a short period of time... Especially when doing this series of things, he must avoid the eyes and ears of the organization to prevent them from catching the trace of "Shuichi Akai".
Therefore, this "full-role acting" method is not very realistic.
Akai Shuichi sighed:
"I will stand up for you regarding matters related to Uzo. But normally, I'm afraid you'll still have to live on your own - if you run into Uzo when you're out for class, remember to message me immediately."
Okiya Subaru: "...If I meet him, will I still have a chance to send a message?"
Akai Shuichi thought seriously for a moment and nodded: "According to his methods, it should be possible - your fighting skills are actually not weak."
“…”Okiya Subaru mentally calculated his chances of winning a fight with Usa.
After a moment, his mind emerged with the first time he met Uzo. The man pressed him down with one hand so that he couldn't raise his head, and almost pressed him down on the half-rotten skull, forcing him to have a kiss with the "assassination tool" that transcended life and death.
Thinking of that horrible corpse, the cosmos flowers growing from the corpse and swaying in the wind, and the stench that still lingers in his memory, Subaru Okiya shuddered silently and his face turned pale.
Akai Hideichi glanced at him and realized that this graduate student with a very jumpy mind had gone astray, so he added:
"What I mean is that Uzo seems to prefer to use murder cases to achieve his plan of silencing people - you don't have to beat Uzo, you just have to beat the murderers."
As soon as he finished speaking, Akai Shuichi thought about what he had just said and suddenly found a loophole.
——He remembered Bourbon, the elite cadre who was somehow tricked by Uzo into the Twin Towers and almost killed by a bomb two hours ago.
Akai Shuichi: "..."
...Come to think of it, if it was Subaru Okiya instead of me who went to the Twin Towers tonight, he would probably have been shot in the leg by Bourbon and forced to lie dead in the building.
If Usa really wanted to kill him and then tricked someone of similar level... no, someone half the level of Bourbon, Subaru Okiya would probably have died "accidentally".
After a pause, Akai Shuichi changed the subject as if nothing had happened: "How about you take two weeks off first?"
Okiya Subaru heard the hesitation in his words: "..."
…In the past, this FBI big shot seemed quite reliable.
But now, why did the situation suddenly change when he met Uzo?
"This is the only way for now." Okiya Subaru sighed sadly and expressed his understanding reluctantly.
——No matter how talented Shuichi Akai is or how many fields he specializes in, I'm afraid that "how to survive" is not one of his research directions.
Okiya Subaru: “…” In this regard, it’s better to protect yourself… As long as you can survive two weeks, a beautiful new life will be right in front of you!
He took a deep breath and silently encouraged himself.
After calming down, Subaru Okiya's thinking ability quickly returned to normal.
"I have to send a message to Uzo first..."
Subaru Okiya reluctantly took the phone, opened his email, and began to respectfully write a reply to Usa.
——If you receive an email from your boss, especially such a "sincere and heartfelt" email, it would be very rude not to reply.
The more courtesy, the less blame. If he behaves like a loyal brother, maybe Uzo can let him stay a few more days.
It is certainly not a good thing to attract Uzo's interest and gain his favor.
But on the other hand, stepping on Wuzo's face and rolling it on the ground, or deliberately confronting him, would probably only lead to a faster and more miserable death...
…
Jiang Xia originally planned to go to bed early tonight to "recover from his injuries."
But after sending the email, he couldn't help but check his phone for a while - technology seems to have made a small leap forward recently, and entertainment activities on mobile phones are richer than before.
As I was scrolling, Subaru Okiya's reply arrived.
Jiang Xia found the email address and clicked on it to check.
The complicated greetings at the beginning, the cumbersome courtesies at the end, and the honorific ending in the middle that is even longer than the actual content...
All kinds of formulaic language filled the screen densely, which made people feel a little upset at first glance.
Fortunately, Jiang Xia was already accustomed to Okiya Subaru's way of sending emails. Even when he wanted to send honorifics to clients, he would pick out appropriate sentences from Okiya Subaru and repeat them to him... He patiently read through the two pages of words for a while and quickly found out what Okiya Subaru wanted to express.
——Be always available at all times, work hard for your boss, and never resign.
Jiang Xia nodded with satisfaction.
Not only Okiya Subaru, this must also be the meaning of "Akai Shuichi".
Although Shuichi Akai is not very reliable when it comes to "protecting others", he has always worked hard in fighting the organization and will never miss the opportunity to get close to Uzo.
It seems that it won't be long before I can have a source of ever-changing murderous aura at my disposal.
"..." The only problem is that according to Jiang Xia's observations that night - perhaps because Gin killed Miyano Akemi, or perhaps because of some other old grudges, Akai Shuichi's hatred is always locked on Gin.
In other words, unless something unexpected happened, Shuichi Akai usually reeked of alcohol and looked murderous.
If you want to get that kind of shameless "colorless murderous aura" in bulk, you have to observe more and find a more effective way to brush the murderous aura...
Jiang Xia yawned, put down his phone, and while thinking about where to work for "Okiya Subaru", he reached out to turn off the bedside lamp.
