Chapter 1689 1697 [Uzo: Organizational target? It's mine]
Hashimoto Maya noticed Curacao's vague friendliness, but although she thought her attitude was strange, she still reflected seriously as if she was writing a self-criticism, saying, "I will be careful with my words and actions in the future and will never expose myself."
Curacao was noncommittal: "Don't leave Tokyo during this period. We will arrange accommodation for you."
After that, she glanced at Ireland again: "No contact between you two."
Ireland certainly didn't expect that such a ridiculous thing as "the enemy has targeted my confidant" would happen around him. He just thought that the organization wanted to put Hashimoto Maya under house arrest and further investigate whether this person needed to be silenced.
To move his subordinates would be a disgrace to him, but at this moment, remembering that Hashimoto Maya had already contacted Uzo, and now he didn't know whether his subordinates could still be trusted, Ireland didn't resist the order too much, and nodded casually to indicate that he understood.
...In fact, even if the organization did not put Hashimoto Maya under house arrest, he planned to act separately from this subordinate in the short term.
Maya Hashimoto didn't notice that he had been ruthlessly abandoned by his boss. At this moment, he was still immersed in the surprise of "I don't have to be silenced!" Although it sounded like he would be under surveillance for a while, this was much better than he expected.
After a while of being happy, Hashimoto Maya became a little suspicious: "..." Is the organization really so kind? Why does he always have a bad premonition, just like someone brought a delicious last meal before the execution.
He saw Curacao in the rearview mirror, and suddenly realized that the way the woman looked at him was scrutinizing and probing, with a hint of pity.
“…”
This look was so strange that a bad premonition surged in Hashimoto Maya's heart, but he didn't dare to ask.
…
As soon as their eyes met, Curacao looked away, but her doubts remained.
Curacao: “…” What on earth was it about this guy that attracted Uzo?
Hashimoto Maya's resume is considered excellent among ordinary people, but it is nothing in an organization full of talented people. And in order to get this subordinate, Uzo put Ireland behind. Could it really be just because of that half-resemblance to Akai Shuichi's face?
Is it that Usa couldn't find the missing Akai Shuichi for the time being, so he found someone who looks very similar and caught him to rub against him?
Or does he want to use this tool to create some sinister traps against cadres?
By the way, Bourbon seems to have always been at odds with Akai Shuichi, and Gin is even worse. Is it their turn to suffer this time?
Curacao suddenly felt a little curious and wanted to know what tricks this subordinate could play on Uzo.
But she soon came to her senses, a trace of cold sweat broke out on her palms, and she quickly put this thought behind her - a guy like Uzo would be hard to hide from, and she actually wanted to go over and watch... She must have been too tired recently, which affected her IQ.
Curacao quickly put Hashimoto Maya behind her and stopped looking at the back seat: she had already confirmed what she was most concerned about - she had nothing in common with Hashimoto Maya, so she didn't have to worry about Uzo's attention suddenly being focused on her. What she had to pay attention to now was to keep a distance from the two guys in the car as soon as possible, so as not to be entangled by any troublesome people because of them.
…
On the other hand, Jiang Xia didn't know that his colleague, whom he had just met a few times, had already started to dislike him in an unsportsmanlike manner. At this time, he was in a good mood and was browsing the complete list of attractions in Hokkaido.
Suzuki Sonoko sighed beside him: "I really want to play in Hokkaido for a month, but unfortunately the exam is coming soon, so I have to go back and pretend to review."
Jiang Xia comforted her: "Come again if you have the chance. It's summer now, and there are more attractions here in winter. We can come here when there are more people and it's bustling.
After a pause, he hesitated and said, "Actually, I still have a few days of free time. Why not just find a scenic spot before going back..."
Before he finished speaking, his phone vibrated and he received an email.
Jiang Xia clicked it to check, and was slightly startled: "It seems that I don't have time to play here. I have to go back as soon as possible."
"Hmm? What happened?" Suzuki Sonoko and Mao Lilan were both curious. They all knew that Jiang Xia's hobby of traveling was second only to solving crimes. How could something happen that made him give up traveling so decisively? Could it be that some major case had happened?
When I got closer to take a look, I found that it was not a case that had come to Jiang Xia.
Suzuki Sonoko was surprised: "A commendation ceremony? It was actually the popular congressman Masao Takada who presented you the award...Haha, they really have good taste. This award is worth it! You are the one who saved such a big plane."
Suzuki Sonoko thought of the thrilling experience of last night, sighed, and regretted not staying in the cockpit at that time, holding the camera and taking N consecutive photos of Jiang Xia to record the unique scene at that time.
Jiang Xia flipped through the pages again and found that the sender was Tsuneaki Shinkura. He introduced himself as Congressman Takata's secretary and hoped that Jiang Xia would call him back when he was free to discuss the details.
Jiang Xia: "..." Is this the legendary ticket to the upper class? If I hand out business cards at the banquet, I'm afraid I'll accidentally hurt some member of the organization or its collaborators.
Speaking of which, he had some impression of this Congressman Takata. It seemed that this man was about to die, and happened to die at a banquet.
Jiang Xia hesitated for a moment, then decided decisively to keep the appointment.
First, he wanted to go.
Besides, the organization must want him to go - the opportunity to raise the detective's value is right in front of him, and it would be strange to let it go.
Jiang Xia: "..." So he should go. Even if something really happened, honestly speaking, what does the congressman's experience have to do with him? He just went to receive an award and hear a few compliments.
Jiang Xia made a decision quickly. He called the secretary back to confirm the details, and then booked tickets with several classmates to Tokyo.
…
On the other hand, Curacao also arranged for Ireland and Hashimoto Maya to return to Tokyo respectively.
"That Lord" hadn't responded to the news about the plane crash yet, so she wasn't sure whether she should send Ireland back to the UK. Rather than letting this unstable factor wander around, she should definitely put him in Tokyo, where the organization was stronger, and keep him under close watch.
Curacao didn't have to be responsible for such a small matter as arranging accommodation. After confirming the situation of the two people, she handed them over to someone else.
Watching the other two cars driving away, Curacao breathed a sigh of relief: the only interaction between her and Uzo so far was with these two guys.
Now that she has let go of Ireland and Maya Hashimoto, she can finally feel more at ease and return to her daily life.
In the past, Curacao actually didn't like her job. But now looking at Ireland and thinking about Bourbon, she realized that her life was still very comfortable. Without ouzo, she was much happier.
But when it's time to work, you still have to work.
A new email came to his phone. Curacao opened it and saw a document about a bald man with a strange hairstyle.
"Masao Takada, 48 years old, congressman." Curacao, "Is this my next target?"
