Chapter 1959 1967 [Brother Takes Office]
"Also, there is one more thing." Uzo's voice called back Hashimoto Maya's scattered thoughts, "I want to build a theater in the sea. I have already chosen the location, and all I have to do is implement it."
He moved his fingers and sent the relevant information to Hashimoto Maya: "You go and do it."
——Jiang Xia still remembers the theater on the isolated island not long ago, and the faint ghostly atmosphere in the theater.
Since the ghost fetus is suspected to be the earthbound spirit in the theater, why not try to move the entire theater closer, and then slowly study the method of abducting it. Otherwise, we can't run to a deserted island every day.
Jiang Xia had also thought about the location in Tokyo - the former Crystal Water Restaurant was very good. Although part of it was blown up by the bartender who lost his sense of taste, the foundation was still there, and it would be much easier to rebuild it than to build a building himself.
Moreover, both the theater and the Water Crystal Restaurant are relics left over from a murder case. They are affordable and there is no need to use the gold obtained from digging up the boss's old house. The usual bonuses are more than enough. The organization is quite generous in giving out money.
Hashimoto Maya: “…Okay.”
Although the news that "Uzo is going to open a theater" is creepy, compared to the previous mission, Hashimoto Maya suddenly felt down to earth - this is what a normal subordinate should do.
Jiang Xia looked at his relieved expression and his eyes fell on Hashimoto Maya's face: If you don't look at his surroundings, this subordinate does look a lot like Akai Shuichi.
Jiang Xia: “…” The iced black tea is available, and fried eggs and sweet water are also provided. The flavors of the meals are becoming more and more diverse. I don’t know when Shuichi Akai, the omnipotent murderous aura, will be able to join the team.
Although Shuichi Akai is cautious in his actions, he is not the kind of person who would stop for the sake of safety. When necessary, he is definitely adventurous.
"Okiya Subaru is such a bright opportunity. Even if it's risky, the FBI will definitely find a way to contact him, and then get in touch with me..."
I don’t know if Shuichi Akai will have a lot of random thoughts and increase production when he sees Maya Hashimoto’s face that looks so similar to his in the future while wearing Okiya Subaru’s disguise.
It's really exciting.
On the opposite side, Maya Hashimoto was looking down at an email when she suddenly felt a chill.
He was startled and looked up alertly, only to see Wu Zuo looking at him thoughtfully. He didn't know what he was thinking about, but he seemed to be in a good mood.
"Work hard." The two looked at each other, and Wu Zuo showed a happy smile that made people's scalps tingle. "I will introduce you to a colleague in a while. I believe you will get along well."
Hashimoto Maya: “…” No need, I just want to be a lone ranger under your command, and stay as far away from those minions who are infected with your scent as possible!
He wanted to say that, but the words turned around and what finally came out was a dry sentence: "Okay, I will work hard."
…
Uzo dropped off a bunch of tasks and left, letting Hashimoto Maya drink as much as she wanted and the bill would be put in his name.
That being said, Maya Hashimoto didn't want to stay in the box where Usa had stayed any longer.
He sat in the room anxiously for a while, calculating that the time was almost enough for Uzo to go far away, so he immediately stood up and prepared to leave.
Before leaving, Hashimoto Maya thought for a moment and ordered another glass of wine - it was customary for a boss to pay the bill for his subordinates. If he left without drinking anything, and Uzo saw it and thought that he had something against him, things would be troublesome.
While waiting, Maya Hashimoto secretly glanced at the record and found that Uzo had also taken some drinks with him, probably because he had gone somewhere again.
And the name he left in the account book was actually "Kurosawa".
Hashimoto Maya: “…” He dared to sign his name in the account book so openly. This shouldn’t be Uzo’s real name.
By the way, this last name...
Hashimoto Maya's face changed slightly, and he suddenly remembered his unlucky temporary accomplice. He couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Could this be the real cause of Kurosawa's death? Even if it was a fake name, Usa didn't want to bump into others... What a tyrannical and terrible thug."
"But the good news is that after the encounter with Uzo, I not only survived, but also became his subordinate. As long as I complete my work seriously from now on, I won't have to worry anymore."
Hashimoto Maya breathed a sigh of relief, but when she came to her senses, she couldn't help but feel distressed: She actually surrendered to her enemy and gained a chance to survive by surrendering. Is this good? This is not good.
"But if you think about it carefully, there is actually no hatred between Uzo and me. Especially now that I am no longer Mr. Ireland's subordinate, there is even less reason for me to keep going against Uzo." Hashimoto Maya secretly adjusted her mentality, "Don't think too much, this is just an ordinary job transfer. Who doesn't change jobs a few times in their life? It's normal, this is normal."
The clerk quickly packed the wine for him, and Maya Hashimoto walked out of the bar carrying it.
"Come to think of it, Mr. Ireland also said that he met Usa in a bar when he was in London." Maya Hashimoto remembered that she had always believed that Naoko Torimaru was Usa, and suddenly felt that she was so self-deceiving and stupid at that time.
“No wonder Mr. Ireland thought that the curly-haired guy in black was Uzo, not a smokescreen released by Uzo. Now that we’ve talked face to face, I finally understand—this terrible sense of oppression, this attitude of playing everything, this polite look on the outside but a look that treats people as if they are not human beings... This kind of scum can only be Uzo!”
Although he only muttered a few words in his heart and did not say anything, after a moment, Hashimoto Maya could not help but look around guiltily, especially paying special attention to the top of his head, worried that the new boss could really read his mind and then drop something with a bang, giving him an unforgettable punishment.
Hashimoto Maya: “…” Don’t think about this anymore, it’s too dangerous, think about something else.
“I don’t know who the new colleague who will be introduced to me is. I hope he can be easier to get along with, or at least not be as keen on persecuting his colleagues as Uzo.”
Hashimoto Maya sorted out what to do next: "Also, how should I approach Jiang Xia? Although Wu Zuo said that as long as there is no evidence, it doesn't matter if it is exposed, but Jiang Xia can be scary sometimes! That look that seems to see through everything...
"No, I still have to try to avoid being exposed. I have to listen to what Wuzo says, but if I accept everything and do whatever he says, I'm afraid I'll be 'resigned' or 'died in the line of duty' soon."
"How about going to the detective agency in Jiangxia and pretending that I have a commission?" Hashimoto Maya nodded inwardly, "This is a good idea. I'll first see if there's an opportunity to talk to him near Jiangxia. If not, I'll go directly to his office."
