Chapter 206 The Third Player

Gin certainly doesn't like Saikai Haruto's script.

As a member of the organization, what Gin hates the most is of course the cops and the like. But when Saikai Haruto came up and said this...there's no way Gin would like it.

Fortunately, he didn't look overly angry.

In fact, when Gin found out that he had "lost his memory" again, although he was unhappy at first, he didn't have any strong emotions of disbelief. He even felt a little calm, as if "something has finally settled"... If you really have to say, it can probably be considered as "getting used to it" or something like that?

As the saying goes, human hearts cannot withstand torture, but they can get used to being numb... Saikai Haruto is probably this kind of "habit" for Gin.

The fact that "Cointreau" would "lose his memory" is also considered a top secret in the organization - after all, it involves the research on the "Silver Bullet" (although it is fake), so its level of confidentiality can probably be compared to "why is Vermouth so valued by the Boss". Among the people who know about this in the organization, there are only three people left among the living people - the Boss himself, Saikai Haruto himself, and Gin.

For unknown reasons, the Boss kept this matter a secret. Even Bermode, who was also a "drug A victim" like Cointreau, did not know what the specific sequelae were.

On the surface, the reason why Gin knew this was, of course, because he had come into contact with "Haezen Chiaki" very early on, and the two had a close relationship, so it was only a matter of time before he discovered it. Moreover, because the two had been partners for many years, Gin could also help him hide the matter from other people when it was inconvenient for the Boss to show up... However, the actual reason was, of course, because Saikai Haruto wanted to find a scapegoat who was easy to fool... and Gin was the unfortunate person chosen.

——Gin is introverted and aloof, always loyal to the organization, he is not very curious, and has a good habit of not getting to the bottom of things other than betrayal... Of course, for Saikai Haruto, there is another more important and more real reason, which is that "he is the first important character he met", and he is deceptive - in a sense, very "deceptive" for "Cointreau".

So in the past ten years of partnership, as the only partner of "Cointreau", Gin was naturally the only person who took care of him diligently during the period of Saikai Haruto's "amnesia". After being tormented by him for more than ten years, Gin had even formed a numb habit to his amnesia.

——After all, apart from him, no one else could be competent for this overly difficult task.

Even in the ten years since they were separated, Saikai Haruto still insisted on contacting Gin every time he "lost his memory"... It can be said that this has greatly trained Gin's tolerance threshold.

Gin even found time to try to understand why Saikai Haruto now considered them all "public security police": Was it because of the incident with Canadian whiskey last month? So after losing his memory, he subconsciously took on the identity of the Canadian guy?

Of course, speculation is speculation, but it doesn't prevent Gin from ruthlessly shattering his fantasy.

"Public security police?" He sneered, "You just killed one last month."

"Eh?" Xi Haiqingdou pointed at himself blankly, his eyes slightly widened, and he continued to ask with a glimmer of hope, "Could it be that I am a scavenger in the police force?"

"How about we go to the Metropolitan Police Department and give it a try?"

Gin was speechless again.

"Will amnesia make you lose your brain? Throw away all those stupid and messy things in your head."

He didn't treat Xi Haiqingdou with a good face because of his "amnesia", and his words were as harsh as before: "Want to go to the Metropolitan Police Department? Are you going to let you choose a way to die? Believe it or not, if you dare to run to the Metropolitan Police Department, I will kill you here first."

Rather than letting him do something stupid and run to the Metropolitan Police Department to "fall into a trap" or cause trouble, it would be better to kill him here and now and save a few bullets.

“No.”

Xi Haiqingdou shook his head very crisply, and his golden eyes were calm and as if it was a matter of course: "Jin-chan, you will definitely stop me. Well, because the two of us, we should be partners, right?"

Gin gave him a flat look.

"Are you surprised that I trusted you so much and guessed it so quickly?"

Xi Haiqingdou interpreted this look as surprise, and slyly winked at Gin, like a child seeking praise and showing off, showing off a proud smile, eyes shining: "Of course it's because I know myself well enough."

His voice was brisk, and he was obviously very excited: "Jin-chan, do you know? You are the first and most important contact for me. This means--"

"That's enough, I know." Gin's reaction was still indifferent - or it would be more appropriate to say numb, as if he had become numb because he had experienced the same thing too many times. He had a blank expression on his face and a voice without any emotion to coldly stop Saikai Haruto's words: "You can shut up - you have said this many times."

"...Oh." Xi Haiqing Dou was forced to stop talking in disappointment.

Many times... no, or almost every time this guy "lost his memory", he would say something similar. He had heard it so many times that Gin could guess what he would say next even if he closed his ears. Anyway, he didn't have any sense of it anymore. Anyway, this guy never said a single truth, and in the end he would definitely turn to self-praise again - whether it was before or after losing his memory, this principle was always universal.

Gin glanced at him and suddenly felt that he looked better before he lost his memory.

At least not like now. Whether it was vigilance or tentative curiosity, it all looked so straightforward and almost stupid that it made people want to laugh.

Seeing him behave like this again after ten years, although I surprisingly didn't feel uncomfortable, the things flowing out of his eyes were still the same as every time before, which only made me feel irritated, even though this annoying thing was always something that both of us knew about.

...Thinking about this makes me even more upset.

Gin wants to smoke again.

...I see. This guy is complaining that he has used the same rhetoric too many times and it is not new anymore? He should use a new rhetoric next time, Xi Haiqingdou thought.

"So... we are all bad guys in the traditional sense?"

Without noticing Gin's change in attitude, the young man's tone became low, and his eyes inevitably showed a look of loss.

Gin remained noncommittal.

"What a pity! I thought I would be a good police officer. It's strange. I think people like me should be good people."

Xi Haiqingdou sighed, but the next second the disappointed look on his face was immediately replaced by new enthusiasm, and he even changed the title casually: "So what are we going to do next? Go against the police? Kill people and set fires? Or rob and commit crimes? It seems that it will be very interesting."

Gin didn't comment on his change of expression, his expression remained unchanged: "Pack all your things for me. Come back to the base with me to meet the Boss first."

Without asking him "Who is the boss?", Xi Haiqing Dou nodded with a smile, and started to clean up the computer in front of Gin.

Amnesia is a very useful thing.

At times, it can be a weapon, a means of defense, a smokescreen, a suitable excuse... or just a whim.

At least it's suitable for the current Saikai Haruto.

Disappearing for ten days without any reason would confuse people even in normal society and they would even call the police. In an organization, it would certainly attract more attention and suspicion, even if it was the boss... no, or rather, because it was the boss, people would be more suspicious.

Of course, it is impossible for Xi Haiqing Dou to make a casual excuse that there will be some omissions in the future, nor is it possible for him to not answer at all, and it is even more impossible for him to pretend that he has not "come back" after waking up... So he needs to find out what happened in the organization and some other places during the ten days when he was "asleep", so that he can "prescribe the right medicine" and make appropriate responses.

So, this "amnesia" can probably be considered an "emergency evacuation"?

While thinking this, Xi Haiqing Dou sat smoothly in the passenger seat of the black Porsche.

Gin is naturally in the driver's seat - vodka certainly doesn't appear here.

"What a classic, trendy and cool car."

Xi Haiqingdou's eyes lit up: "What a special four-seater 356A? The modification is so cool! Jin-chan, you really have good taste... Hey, why are you looking at me like that? Can't I sit here?"

He turned his head and looked innocently at Gin who was sitting in the driver's seat and staring at him.

Gin gave him a puzzled look: "Seat belt."

What's wrong with this guy?

“…Oh.” Xi Haiqing Dou lowered his head obediently.

A black Porsche was running like a snake on the streets of Tokyo, while on the other side in Yokohama, a young man with purple-black medium-length hair was sitting on the bed. He opened his cell phone and looked at the dozens of text messages and missed call records from the same person. He couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

If I remember correctly, he should have "slept" for ten days, not ten months... ?
