Chapter 244
The lounge fell into a brief silence. Hoshikawa Kazuaki lowered his eyes, looking like he was quickly weighing the pros and cons in his mind, but in fact he was communicating with Kagamino Satoshi, who was almost crazy, through the consciousness link.
Hoshikawa Kazuaki: "Toru Amuro's Bourbon face is really fierce. Although I was prepared to face this side of him, I almost couldn't help laughing when I saw it. But fortunately, I managed to hold it back in the end."
Kagino Satoshi: "So busy, so busy, so busy..."
Hoshikawa Kazuaki: "The timing is so unfortunate. I still can't get in touch with Momotani, so there's no way I can get him to save me. Officer Nishihara is also busy running for his life, and I don't know if Akai Shuichi can make it in time."
Kagino Satoshi: "So busy, so busy, so busy..."
Hoshikawa Kazuaki: "Even Morofushi Kagemitsu, who promised to protect me, is busy with the organization's artificial intelligence and has no time to care about him. Now, let alone saving me, I'm afraid he will need me to help him divert the organization's attention. So at this time, even if I want to find external help, I can't find anyone."
Kagino Satoshi: "So busy, so busy, so busy..."
Hoshikawa Kazuaki: "So, I should go with the flow and join the organization, right? Although this is a solution that the four of us have long rejected, it is surprisingly suitable in the current situation."
Kagino Satoshi: "So busy, so busy, so busy - what? Wait, Xiaoxing, you want to join the organization? No way! If Baifu knew, he would be so angry that he would beat you up on the spot!"
Hoshikawa Kazuaki: "But I really have no other choice now. The situation has already taken shape and cannot be broken by external force. I can only try to integrate from the inside so that I won't hurt myself in the end. So if I want to walk out of this lounge without any illness or disaster today, I can only agree to them."
Kagino Satoshi: “…Is that so?”
Kagino Satoshi: "Ahhh, Xiaoxing, you must be careful over there. I'm really too busy here, wuwuwu..."
Hoshikawa and Ming helplessly cut off the conversation with Kagamino Satoshi. He didn't want to disturb Kagamino Satoshi at this critical moment, but he really needed to find a trustworthy listener to vent his anger to, so that he could perform at his best when facing the organization and not make any wrong responses.
After thinking, Xingchuan and Ming also resumed their acting. He finally raised his head and said to Amuro Toru who was looking at him coldly, "Okay, I promise you." Xingchuan and Ming paused for a moment, and then added as if he was worried, "But you must also guarantee my safety, and at the same time guarantee that I can smoothly inherit the Kamimura family."
At this time, Hoshikawa and Akira seemed to be referring to Amuro Toru's attitude, and at the same time were greedy for the Kamimura family's industry and family background, so they agreed to go along with the organization.
"A smart choice." Bermode finally put away his gun and smiled with satisfaction. She then looked at Amuro Toru, who seemed to be lacking interest, and said jokingly, "Fortunately, Bourbon is here to help. It's true that with someone familiar around, things are much easier."
Xingchuan and Ming bowed their heads humbly, but they were relieved. Great, even a big star like Vermouth, who is good at acting, believed his lies. Then the other people in the organization should not doubt him anymore, right?
It seems that my previous performance was indeed very good, and I finally passed this first hurdle.
It was only then that Toru Amuro looked directly at Hoshikawa Kazuaki, gave him a mocking smile, and then said in a half-praising and half-threatening tone:
"That's right. Children should listen to adults. Since you are now half one of us, the organization will help you clear your name in the case, and the Kamimura family's property and the position of head of the family will soon be yours. But if you dare to do anything against the organization in the future, since the organization can give you these, it can naturally take them back at any time. I believe you don't want to lose everything and then be sent to a laboratory and tortured to death like a guinea pig, right?"
Hoshikawa Kazuaki seemed to be frightened by the malice in Amuro Toru's words and froze in place, and began to shiver unconsciously. However, in his heart, he was madly praising Amuro Toru's acting skills.
He is indeed an excellent undercover agent who has been undercover for seven years and still stands firm, and has rushed straight to the position of the ace of the organization's intelligence team. Not only is his acting skills impeccable, but he can also perfectly catch his own script and cooperate with himself as soon as he starts performing. Such an excellent teammate, please give me a bunch!
Vermodes had no idea that she was being played by the two acting masters in front of her. At this time, after listening to Amuro Toru's Bourbon-style speech, she laughed so hard behind Hoshikawa and Akira that she finally stopped laughing and comforted Hoshikawa and Akira lovingly:
"You are such a poor little girl. Your trusted brother betrayed you to the organization and threatened you so severely. You must be very sad, right? But don't worry. As long as you follow the organization's instructions in the future, the organization will not treat you unfairly. Whether it is your reputation as a cartoonist, or the wealth and power of the Uemura family in the future, there will be more in the future. As long as you behave yourself, nothing will be a problem."
Bermode's words were full of temptation. If Hoshikawa and Akira hadn't known exactly what the organization was, they would have been fooled by her. Unfortunately, Hoshikawa and Akira were not ordinary high school students as Bermode thought, but a mastermind who had mastered most of the secrets of the scientific plot and could make countless characters act according to his will with just a script.
However, although Xingchuan Heming was clear-headed in his heart, he still looked convinced on the surface. Even though there was only Amuro Toru in front of him, he did not dare to relax his acting skills at all.
Who knows if there is another pair of eyes watching and evaluating me at any time in a place I can't see? If I relax a little bit and leak some secrets, I am afraid that both I and Amuro Toru will be finished.
Sure enough, after Xingchuan and Ming Qieqiong stutteredly expressed that they would be loyal to the organization and obey the organization's arrangements in everything, applause from a third person suddenly rang out in the lounge.
"You are really amazing, Bourbon. You don't hesitate to kill an acquaintance who trusts you. You are indeed a ruthless intelligence officer. But it's a pity that I couldn't catch you today. Otherwise, I would be happier if I could make two bloody holes in your body."
A man in black casual clothes and a duckbill cap walked out from the corner. Xingchuan and Ming looked up in surprise. He had been in the lounge for so long, but he had never noticed that there was a person hiding in the corner.
Xingchuan and Ming looked at each other alertly, and then they looked at Amuro Toru with a look of help, asking for help: "Amuro-sama, is he one of your men too? He heard our previous conversation, so there won't be any problems, right?"
Amuro Toru slowly turned his head and looked carefully at the worried, helpless, and still young faces of Hoshikawa and Akira. He carefully gathered all his thoughts in his eyes, showed a fake smile that was hidden with malicious intent belonging to the Bourbon organization, and replied arrogantly: "Of course, no problem."
However, as Rei Furuya, who goes by the alias Toru Amuro, faced the trusting gaze of Hoshikawa Kazuaki, his heart was filled with frustration and guilt.
As a public security policeman and the older brother that Xingchuan and Ming have always trusted, not only was he unable to save him in time when he was in trouble, he even had to become the pusher of evil and pushed him into the darkness with his own hands.
Such a talented, determined, well-behaved and promising child was pushed into the vortex of sin and blood by himself. Can he really live up to his trust?
Even though he knew that Hoshikawa and Ming were just acting in coordination with him, and that they were actually much more resolute and upright than he showed at this moment, the more this was true, the deeper the guilt that Fūya Rei felt.
I feel sorry for the trust of Hiro and the squad leader, sorry for the trust that Hoshikawa and Akira have always had, and even sorry for the superb performance of Hoshikawa and Akira at this time, which was only to prevent my identity from being exposed, thus allowing the organization to discover my undercover identity.
I originally wanted to protect this child, but now, I was protected by this child instead. And the person who ultimately dragged him into darkness and cast a shadow over his bright and open life was me, an unqualified protector.
At this time, even though Hoshikawa Kazuaki was acting, his eyes were still shining. That was his trust and closeness from the bottom of his heart, and it was the heaviest kindness that both Amuro Toru and Furuya Rei would be in awe of but unable to respond to.
This is both ironic and sad.
At this moment, Furiya Rei couldn't even explain what he was feeling, but he knew that he would probably never forget the look in Hoshikawa Kazuaki's eyes for the rest of his life.
It was a light full of warmth and purity, but one that would be destroyed by one's own hands.
