Chapter 3285 3297 [Uzo's Full Moon] Ask for monthly tickets (づど)
Shuichi Akai quickly figured out the clue: Uzo's sudden disappearance just now was because he walked behind the board with strange material - just like a ninja covering himself with an environmental cloth that can conceal his body.
The board is so small, if you just keep your eyes on both sides, it will be a dead end...
“…”
The distance was not far, and Akai Shuichi rushed to the wall in the blink of an eye. He leaned over and rolled to prevent Uzo from attacking him first.
However, the next moment after changing his body shape, Shuichi Akai discovered that his bad premonition came true: there was nothing behind the board.
There was no figure, no ouzo, no secret passage, and no ladder.
Suddenly, three heads popped up on the wall. Akai Shuichi took a quick glance and knew that they were his three colleagues. He frowned and asked, "Did anyone climb over the wall just now?"
"No, we've been watching, but we didn't see anyone." The three people said in unison. At the same time, they looked down and suddenly asked in surprise, "Why is there a painting here?"
"painting?"
Akai Shuichi was stunned for a moment, then realized something belatedly.
He looked around vigilantly again, then stomped on the ground behind the board to confirm that it was solid. He sighed silently, and had to stop searching for the figure and focus his attention on the one-meter-high board.
Then he suddenly discovered that on the back of this "board" was actually a huge oil painting.
The whole painting is gloomy and dark, depicting a lone moon on the sea. The sea is rolling, the moon is huge, and there is a strange sense of oppression.
In the center of the picture, where the moon touches the sea surface, according to common sense, there should be a small boat that fits the atmosphere, but at this time, there is a boat-like conical wine glass painted there, and the glass seems to be filled with translucent cold white liquid.
"Silver Bullet!" An FBI who loves to hang out in bars recognized it. "Haha, this is my favorite drink. Even if the top of the glass is knocked off, I can still recognize it!"
That’s right, the originally complete wine glass was now broken into half - it was shattered by Shuichi Akai’s bullet.
The spinning bullet seemed to make a pure white flower of death bloom on the wine glass.
Akai Shuichi looked at the painting and fell into silence for a moment.
——Silver Bullet, a classic cocktail, its name comes from the European exorcist legend.
In these ancient legends, silver-plated bullets are the nemesis of werewolves and vampires, and they can penetrate the enemy's heart with one shot.
After leaving the Black Organization, during the FBI's ongoing investigation, Shuichi Akai learned that there seemed to be a saying in the organization that the bottle of "rye whiskey" that once lurked in his body would turn into a silver bullet and shoot through the heart of the organization.
It seemed that Uzo had also heard of this legend, but he seemed to be different from his colleagues. He had no fear of the "Silver Bullet". Instead, he lured the "Silver Bullet" to play hide-and-seek for two hours, and then used this cruel method to let the "Silver Bullet" himself shoot the Silver Bullet in the head.
"...What a playwright who can never rest." Akai Shuichi whispered.
The three FBI on the wall shuddered and looked at the ace nervously, but fortunately, there seemed to be no anger of provocation on Shuichi Akai's face.
This made them feel relieved, and they regained their confidence and asked, "Mr. Akai, what should we do now?"
"Leave this yard." Akai Shuichi has gradually become accustomed to this group of unthinking colleagues. "Although I used a silencer just now, firing two shots in a row in this alley will easily amplify the sound. If the owner of the yard is alert enough, they may come out to check... Do you want to be caught breaking into the house?"
"Oh, okay!" The three FBIs woke up as if from a dream, and quickly climbed over the wall and crawled out.
Shuichi Akai put on gloves and looked at the board in front of him: "Then move it away - Kamal, go drive a car over here."
The person he pointed out trotted away.
The other two came over to lend a hand and couldn't help but say, "Such an unlucky thing..."
Shuichi Akai: "The materials, brushstrokes, the source of the pigments, the DNA that may be attached to the painting, these are all very important information. Since he wants to give me this gift, I will accept it..."
Before he finished speaking, with a bang, the board in front of him turned into a field of white flowers. The petals fluttered down, fell to the ground, and disappeared.
Two FBI: “!!”
Akai Shuichi: "..."
...Tsk.
If his colleagues had been 1% as cautious as this guy, perhaps the organization would have been almost destroyed by now.
but……
Shuichi Akai stretched out his hand to catch the petals in the air, but the petals seemed to have eyes and fluttered around. It took him a lot of effort to catch one before it fell to the ground, but when he opened his palm and looked in front of him, his hand was empty.
"…What kind of material is this?" Shuichi Akai frowned deeply when he thought of the organization's various laboratories.
"Shuichi!"
A voice rang out and Judy ran over.
Her car couldn't get into the alley, so she had to leave it outside and run all the way here. After arriving, even the FBI with outstanding physical fitness couldn't help but support her knees and pant for several times.
Then she had time to speak: "What happened? You haven't been replying to messages, and there are gunshots in the earphones."
"I don't think I asked you to come over." Akai Shuichi's head hurt again: When will these teammates learn to obey orders when they should, and think and act alone when there are no orders?
If Uzo had not left after delivering the gift, but had set a series of traps here... then Judy, who had hurried over, would probably disrupt his rhythm in dealing with Uzo.
...But now is not the time to talk about this. It’s not the first day that he has known about his teammates’ problems.
Akai Shuichi had no choice but to shake his head and briefly describe what had just happened, then said: "The police may be here soon, you guys evacuate immediately."
Then he spoke into the intercom: "Keep watching your own intersections, hide more covertly, and be careful to avoid the police."
Judy got the hint and subconsciously looked at the gun he was holding: "You don't want to stay here!"
Akai Shuichi looked back at the quiet alley. "It's impossible for him to disappear out of thin air. Even if he managed to escape from my sight like a magic trick, our encirclement has not been completely removed. He may not have gone far. I will try to look for him first."
From his tone, Judy knew that Shuichi Akai didn't actually hold out much hope, but was just being cautious and didn't want to miss the clue in front of him.
