Chapter 559 I don't want to eat cookies anymore. More to the leader [idiot oh yeah 2333]
“…”
Vodka felt his hands numbed by the shock, and in an instant, many vulgar words popped up in his mind.
But in the end, having lost his weapon, he just raised his hands rationally and loudly argued: "Wait, he's not dead yet!"
Toru Amuro looked down at Jiang Xia in the light from the entrance.
The detective's instinct kicked in and he quickly eliminated all possibilities - no gunshot wounds, no knife wounds, no strangulation marks on the neck... and look at the snacks that fell from Vodka's hand when he raised his hand... If Vodka was really trying to murder his subordinates, there seemed to be only one possibility.
...poisoning?
Toru Amuro held a gun in one hand, pointed it at Vodka, and told him to move away.
Then he walked to Jiang Xia, squatted down, and stretched out his other hand to probe Jiang Xia.
"..." As Vodka said, the person is still alive. And he doesn't have any common signs of poisoning, such as a rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, or cold sweats and convulsions... Anesthetics, or sleeping pills?
Toru Amuro took a look at the snack bag on the ground and quickly recalled Vodka's previous actions - the strangely shaped "weapon" under Vodka's black robe seemed to be this snack bag.
Amuro Toru remembered that before, Vodka would occasionally touch his waist, and seemed to care about these things... Could this be a new product made by the equipment department or the laboratory? Could Vodka be using Jiang Xia to test the poison?
...A dark and inhumane organization is indeed capable of doing such a thing.
Although Jiang Xia seems to be fine at the moment, I don’t know if there will be any hidden side effects...
Thinking of this, Toru Amuro's heart moved and he suddenly had an idea.
He turned to Vodka with a sinister smile, and slightly exerted force on the finger holding the trigger: "You plotted against my subordinates while I was away... Are you dissatisfied with me?"
Vodka: “…”
He glanced at Jiang Xia, who was lying peacefully behind Bo Ben, looking like he was living a peaceful life. Then he thought about himself being pointed at by a gun... He suddenly had the urge to pretend to faint and fall over to crush Uzo.
...Unfortunately, it's just something I can think about.
...Speaking of which, judging from what Brother Gin said before, shouldn't Uzo be concentrating on plotting against Bourbon at this moment? But why does the current situation seem to make it seem like Vodka is being persecuted more?
Vodka briefly fell into deep thought, and began to wonder if Uzo thought too highly of him, perhaps thinking that he could beat Bourbon in a 1v1 situation, so he arranged this situation...
However, at this moment, facing Bourbon's gun ready to fire, and thinking about the gun that had rolled into the corner, Vodka could only focus on the present.
He tried hard to think of a statement that could explain the current situation without exposing Uzo's identity and causing retaliation.
Then, perhaps it was the strong desire to survive that activated Vodka's thinking, and he suddenly had an idea.
He explained calmly, "I have no problem with you or him. There are only some harmless anesthetics in the cookies. This is just a small contribution to Kira."
"...For Kira?" Bourbon frowned and began to wonder what the vodka thief Ma Jiangxia had to do with an idol who died a year ago.
Vodka took a deep breath and thought that he had already failed many times today, so this time wouldn't matter.
So he said in a deep voice, half sincerely and half falsely, with a straight face:
"Kira has participated in a lot of traffic publicity in her hometown without pay. There are reports that she was involved in a car accident before and her family members were killed in that car accident. I don't think she would do something like 'driving into the lake while drunk'. She must have been murdered by someone.
"And judging from the replaced recording in the meditation room, tonight, no matter how she will 'resurrect and seek revenge', the existence of this detective" Vodka glanced at Jiang Xia in a serious manner, "may become an obstacle to Kira's revenge."
Toru Amuro: "..."
The topic suddenly turned to star chasing, which made him a little uncomfortable.
But he barely understood what Vodka meant.
——Just now, when a group of people were holding that chuunibyou seance in the meditation room, in the tape prepared by Hirasaka Reiki, the lines of the dead Kira were replaced by "I will be resurrected tonight and take revenge with my own hands!" by an unknown person.
Vodka may have smelled crime and supported the act of revenge from the bottom of his heart.
In this situation, Jiang Xia's keen insight and his reputation as a detective may become obstacles to this revenge action - Vodka is probably worried that Jiang Xia will see through the avenger's murder plan and stop it in advance; or that the avenger will be afraid of Jiang Xia and stop the action on his own initiative.
So in order to give the vengeful warrior a little help, Vodka tricked his employees into coming in and drugging them.
“……”After realizing this, Toru Amuro fell into silence for a moment.
...Is Vodka actually really chasing after a star?
...Come to think of it, they would use their rare vacation time for such gatherings; they would take time out of their busy schedules to make action figures for their idols; and they would even chant those weird, middle school-like spells for their idols... This kind of thoughtfulness really doesn't seem fake.
Moreover, the people in the organization really have all kinds of strange interests and hobbies. He vaguely remembered that there was a sniper who liked the childish facilities in the amusement park. When Toru Amuro was bored, he once planned how to efficiently capture people in that environment...
Realizing that his thoughts had strayed, Toru Amuro quickly regained his attention.
In short, what happened tonight - Jiang Xia might become an obstacle for the mysterious man to avenge Kira, so Vodka knocked Jiang Xia down first... This simple and rough way of solving obstacles does have a strong organizational style. This is indeed what Vodka can do.
Vodka did not personally avenge Kira and shoot the person who killed Kira. It might be because his own reasoning ability was insufficient and he could not find the enemy of his idol, so he had to do his best for another unknown teammate by dealing with Jiang Xia.
Come to think of it, Vodka brought anesthetic biscuits with him when he came to the party... This in itself shows that he was planning to cause trouble at the party... Wait, speaking of biscuits, the words of the organization members cannot be trusted, even Vodka, who doesn't seem to be good at lying.
——Are the cookies that this person gave Jiang Xia really just anesthetic foods with no side effects?
"Harmless anesthetic?" Toru Amuro repeated what Vodka had just said while picking up the fallen biscuit bag.
He weighed it in his hand, and then took a look inside the bag. He found that there were indeed only cookies inside, and no weapons or anything like that. Then he threw the bag towards Vodka and sneered, "Prove it to me. Eat it up."
