Chapter 2560 2572 [Vodka: Deceiving the public with lies! ]
As Toru Amuro was unable to get any information out of the situation, he could only give up on getting clues from Jiangxia for the time being - fortunately, there was more than one clue, and once Fumi and the others had thoroughly checked the bus station, things should be able to come to a conclusion.
With this in mind, Amuro Toru had no intention of staying any longer. He showed some concern for the employees who had gone through a lot today, then drove away with the friendly farewell from them, intending to look for the subordinates who were not allowed to see the light of day on the other side.
But after driving for a while, Amuro Toru remembered something and frowned and turned back: "I heard that both of your phones are in the hands of the robbers - why do you want to hand over both?"
Although "hand over your cell phone" is the robbers' rule for the passengers, a young man who likes to secretly drive fast late at night and occasionally beat up criminals behind the police's back should not be so pedantic as to obey the kidnappers' orders.
But in fact, Jiang Xia actually handed over both his work phone and his personal phone to the kidnappers.
…This is not right.
And for an intelligence agent, anything unusual is worth paying attention to.
Sure enough, when this matter was mentioned, Jiang Xia's expression suddenly changed slightly.
...Is there really a problem?
Amuro Toru's eyes suddenly became sharp, "What's going on?"
Jiang Xia wanted to say something but stopped.
When Toru Amuro saw his familiar face, he immediately understood: "Is it related to the organization?"
Jiang Xia nodded hesitantly.
Amuro Toru sighed, "What happened? Just tell me."
Jiang Xia watched the ghosts take another handful of coffee, then he said with satisfaction: "'Mr. Edward' was also on that bus before, and his seat was near me. After the robbers asked for his phone, he didn't seem to want to hand it over, so he asked me to lend him one. I couldn't refuse..."
"...It's that guy again." Amuro Toru was fed up with Ireland and Vodka, two organizational cadres who were buzzing around Jiang Xia like flies. He thought about it unhappily and suddenly realized something, "Let me see the phone you lent him."
Jiang Xia took out his cell phone and handed it to him without hesitation.
This calm look makes people feel at ease.
But when he thought about how Ireland had probably taken the phone from Jiang Xia so easily before, Toru Amuro couldn't help but get angry: One or two, don't you have your own subordinates? Every day, you take other people's employees' phones...
Halfway through his thought, the keyword "subordinates" suddenly reminded Toru Amuro of what Ireland's confidant, or "former confidant" was doing now.
“…”
His anger subsided slightly, and he suddenly wanted to laugh again: "Maybe this is karma, I actually feel a little sympathetic towards him."
"Sympathy?" Jiang Xia seemed to have not followed his jumping thoughts. "Sympathy for whom?"
"Well, nothing." Toru Amuro came back to his senses and did not tell Jiang Xia about these secrets that involved too many cadres.
He looked at Jiang Xia's mobile phone carefully, then leaned over to take out his laptop from the passenger seat, connected it to the phone, lowered his head and tapped on the keyboard to start operating.
"Hmph, they really did something." Looking at the strings of characters on the screen, Toru Amuro frowned and felt a little troubled: with the monitoring software, wouldn't the conversation between him and Jiang Xia just now have been heard?
Ireland was trying every possible way to get close to and use Jiang Xia when he didn't know his true identity. If he knew that Jiang Xia was actually a peripheral member of the organization...
No one knew what that bastard Ireland would use his authority to make Jiang Xia do. If he was not careful, Jiang Xia would face Uzo head-on, while Ireland would just watch the show leisurely from behind.
But soon, Toru Amuro discovered that the situation was better than he had imagined.
"You're lucky. I didn't expect that guy to be so cautious."
Amuro Toru looked at the many details displayed on the screen, his lips curled up slightly: "These mobile phones have been in the hands of the robbers, so they can be regarded as physical evidence. They may be checked by the police from the technical department. If any problems are found, the trust he has won from you, the "famous detective", will collapse.
"So he set a timer. At midnight tonight, the software will wake up and officially start. After all, in his opinion, monitoring you is a long-term operation, and there is no need to take the risk of monitoring you immediately."
Jiang Xia seemed to be relieved and nodded: "What should we do now?"
As Toru Amuro typed away on the keyboard, he said, "He can easily make up an excuse to take your phone, so of course I can too. In his eyes, you are a useful tool, and Vodka and I are both his competitors for you. So it makes sense for me to take your phone and uninstall the apps he installed."
At this point, Toru Amuro paused: "..." Forget about himself, but as an undercover police agent, he hoped that the organization cadres knew nothing about everything and then fell flat on their face at the critical moment.
But Vodka has been able to hold back until now and not tell Ireland about Jiang Xia's true identity. This shows...
"On the one hand, my threat to Vodka worked. On the other hand, the relationship between Vodka and Ireland is worse than I thought. Although they are cooperating on the surface, the reliability of this cooperation is almost negligible."
Amuro Toru gloated over the misfortune, thinking to himself: "Of course, this actually represents the bad relationship between Gin and Ireland... I hope these two people will meet sooner rather than later, and it would be best if both sides suffer losses, so that I can have more room for maneuver."
Intelligence agents who work multiple jobs every day are apparently also very good at multitasking.
While thinking about all sorts of things, Toru Amuro did not stop his actions.
Amid the crisp sound of keyboard tapping, he typed the last few words and pressed the enter key hard.
The characters on the screen disappeared line by line, as if being swallowed and wiped out by something invisible.
At the same time, a stream of information came from far away and headed towards a certain organizational cadre.
"Okay, I've said hello to him. He won't suspect you of deactivating the software."
Amuro Toru was sitting in the car, and he handed the phone back to Jiang Xia through the car window. "If he mentions this matter indirectly, you should pretend that you don't know and just say that I borrowed your phone."
At the same time, he couldn't help but frowned: "Mobile phones are very important things, especially the mobile phones of members of the organization, even those of peripheral members - if someone asks you for it in the future, don't give it out easily."
Jiang Xia looked at Noah's ball bouncing around boredly beside him: "But..."
"No buts." Amuro Toru interrupted him, "You have to make good use of your identity as a famous detective. Under the watchful eyes of the public, they dare not go against you, especially now that they need your help."
Jiang Xia thought about it and sighed sadly: "But this trick can only be used against 'Mr. Edward' - Vodka knows that I am a peripheral member of the organization."
