Chapter 212 The Third Player
According to the records in those documents, there are only a few short lines about "Lye", which is not much... At least compared to "Bourbon" and "Scotland", the two undercover agents who have been revealed to "Chiaki Uehara" by Asahina Kazuma, there is very little information about him in the records.
The so-called "teacher-student relationship" between the two of them was more like a joke than a true "master-disciple" relationship with a proper inheritance, in every aspect, so naturally, he did not record it in those documents.
——So there is something wrong with Lei.
"Yu Yuan Qian Qiu" can easily deduce this conclusion.
Then, Nishimi Haruto began his performance and pretended to show a surprised expression.
"Ley?" he asked. "What's the news?"
No rebuttal... Akai Shuichi's eyes flickered for a moment, and he said calmly: "I sent you a message three days ago. It seems that I accidentally touched a part of the gun you gave me, which caused a small problem. But you know, teacher, I can only shoot and not repair it, so I can only contact you."
"Text message?"
He took some time to look through the emails in his computer yesterday, but he didn't see any emails from him. Saikai Haruto lowered his head and opened his cell phone, and sure enough, he found a message from Akai Shuichi in the text messages.
"Ah, I remember there were other members who could have done the repairs while I was away, right? Didn't you contact them, Lei?"
Saikai Haruto asked, "Besides, you don't need to call me 'teacher' when you're repairing a gun, right? Eh - how should I put it, it feels a bit weird and disgusting?"
His expression was quite strange, as if he had seen something extremely confusing.
"Teacher, have you forgotten? You specially modified that gun. If you want to know more about it, no one knows it better than you - well, I won't call it that."
Akai Shuichi raised his eyebrows and raised his hands in surrender.
It looks like it's me? It's different from yesterday...
"I wanted to tell you this when I saw you at the base yesterday, but you and Bourbon seemed to be busy, and I also had something urgent to do, so I left first. I didn't expect you to be free to come over today, Cointreau."
"Yesterday? Gin and I only stayed at the base for a while yesterday. We only saw Bourbon and Shirley, but not you, Rai."
There was no sign of panic on Xi Haiqing Dou's face. He thought for a moment and said, "As for the gun, do you have it with you now?"
"Ah, I happened to bring it." Akai Hide nodded calmly, untied the black backpack on his back and handed it over.
Xi Hai Qing Dou: "..."
This might not be a coincidence, but was brought here specially, right?
He took it and unzipped it. Inside was a black sniper rifle. Xi Haiqingdou took a quick look and found that its general shape was somewhat similar to the Swiss SIG3000[1]... It looked familiar. He touched it casually and found that there was indeed his special mark on a certain place. It was indeed the one he gave to Akai Shuichi before - after all, he was a "teacher".
"You are so careless..."
He frowned, then raised his lips, nonchalantly: "Okay, I happen to be free recently, so come back in two days to pick up the gun, and I will send you the news then."
The curve of Akai Shuichi's lips also lifted up, but the amplitude was very small, and if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see any changes at all: "Then I'll trouble you."
He sent the message three days ago, the gun was indeed given to him by Cointreau, and there was indeed a small problem with it, "teacher" was indeed a title that Cointreau acknowledged but did not like to hear, and "Cointreau" was indeed the Bourbon that he met with Gin yesterday...all of these were true.
However, the person in front of me overlooked one thing.
——With the true character of "Cointreau", he would never simply brush it off with a casual word "accidental" and readily agreed to help him repair the gun, especially the gun that had problems due to his operation.
Not only complaining and accusing, but also taking this opportunity to blackmail with a righteous attitude, and at the same time taking the opportunity to say a few bad things about him and praise himself... This is Jundu.
If the gun is seriously damaged and cannot be completely restored, the guy will not hesitate to offer to replace it with a new one and take the discarded gun back himself - this is Cointreau.
There is something wrong with the Cointreau in front of us. So who is he? Where is the real Cointreau? Why do they do this?
Akai Shuichi fell into deep thought.
Saikai Haruto walked away leisurely, carrying the black backpack in his hand.
He really has a lot of tricks. This guy Akai Shuichi...his tricks are like a beehive, right? He shook his head secretly in his heart.
It seems that he saw the scene yesterday when he stood with Gin and Furuya Rei? I don't know what this guy has imagined... But who cares, he will "recover his memory" tomorrow anyway, so let him imagine as much as he wants. How he will react and what he will imagine then is none of his business.
Fortunately, there were no other problems elsewhere today and everything went smoothly.
When a new day came, Xi Haiqing Dou naturally chose to "recover his memory upon waking up".
So early in the morning, he immediately turned on his mobile phone, chose to call Shuichi Akai's number, and forcibly proposed to replace him with a new gun, and took the opportunity to extort a large sum of money from him without any courtesy - about the price of 1.5 SIG3000s.
Akai Shuichi who just woke up: "..."
Xi Hai Qing Dou smiled softly: "I thought you should be mentally prepared after handing me the gun, Lei? No way, you don't plan to get a new gun, do you? Then why did you send me a message? Are you trying to tease me? Or do you want to get something for free?"
Shuichi Akai hung up the phone silently and transferred money to his account silently.
Xihai Qingdou was satisfied.
As for what else Shuichi Akai will come up with after this, it has nothing to do with him.
As for Rei Furuya... Haruto Saikai naturally continued to cooperate with him. After all, whether he was "after losing his memory" or "after recovering his memory", he didn't know what he wanted to do, right? He was a really considerate and kind person, and he did one good deed a day (1/1) to achieve it.
Unfortunately, perhaps because his cooperation was not sincere enough, within two days, Furuya Rei probably guessed that he had "recovered to normal" and was deliberately playing tricks on him. He also gradually became less sincere, and the "test game" ended just like that.
...In fact, Saikai Haruto felt a little sorry for it.
Perhaps because it happened too many times, Gin had no reaction to his "memory recovery".
As for "Amnesia", it seems that "Yu Yuan Chiaki" has no effect at all... Except for adding two more records about "Lei's suspicious personality" in the "file", he looks no different from the past.
Everything returned to its original state.
Until the controversy surrounding this matter had died down again, Saikai Haruto finally released "Igarashi Yuuki" again.
The boy, about fourteen or fifteen years old, had short black hair, clear peridot green eyes, and a baby face with some blunt features, as if the baby fat on his face had not yet faded. The smile on his lips was bright and brilliant, without any gloom, and revealed two faintly visible little canine teeth.
"Hey, Brother Qianqiu, long time no see." The young man's voice rang out, refreshing and lively, full of vigor and fearlessness.
“…There has been no change at all.”
The young man with white hair and golden eyes stared at the black-haired boy in front of him for a full ten minutes before he finally spoke slowly.
——After the vest was recycled and reappeared, it should have maintained the same appearance as before the last recycling...but the last time it appeared, "Igarashi Yuuki" directly crossed the entire world, which was obviously an exception.
His current appearance is exactly the same as before he left this world, but he looks much more immature and youthful than when he appeared in the previous world.
[Igarashi Yuuki SSR]: An ordinary junior high school student with perfect motor skills and physical fitness. She has the affinity to chat with anyone from 80 to 8 months old, as well as bad luck that cannot be improved no matter what she does, and some harmless bad luck.
So... this vest can still be used again in this world, right?
Haruto Saikai thought that the "comic styles" of the two worlds were different, so it would be okay for him to bring "Yuuki Igarashi" out of this world for a walk, right?
Xi Haiqing Dou quickly convinced himself.
"So this time, we still have to start from... from junior high school?"
Igarashi Yuuki's smile fell.
The smile shifted to Chiaki Habuchi, an adult who didn't have to go to school.
"How many times have you been to junior high school?"
"Ah, after I got promoted to high school, I seemed to have gone to high school more often than junior high school."
The white-haired young man made no effort to conceal his schadenfreude.
The baby-faced boy chuckled: "That's better than Brother Qianqiu not having attended middle school, right?"
"I went to university on my own."
The golden eyes swept across the boy's head: "It's better than a kid who never went to college."
The boy's smile fell. "Wait, after all, we are the same person, right? Is it really okay to attack ourselves?"
"...Ah, sorry, you smiled so brightly that I couldn't help it."
The white-haired young man apologized insincerely.
"...Anyway, I wish you success in getting into university this time?"
"…Should we not set up a flag for now?"
The boy sighed: "I have already set enough flags in the last world."
"By the way, instead of wishing me success in getting into university, why don't I wish you to get rid of Kudo Shinichi as soon as possible and get to the finale? In that case, I will definitely be able to get into university smoothly!"
The lush green eyes like peridot sparkled, and the boy was excited and eager to try.
"...Why do I feel like you are more suitable to be a villain than me? I am a good person and would never do such a wicked thing as going against the protagonist."
The white-haired young man refused righteously and without hesitation.
The two looked at each other.
"Okay, that's a bit disgusting."
"Okay, that's a bit disgusting."
The two voices sounded synchronously.
"Anyway, I should go to school first and try to be classmates with the future 'Sherlock Holmes of the Heisei era', and then become classmates and friends."
The boy fell into deep thought, and belatedly realized something: "...Oh, right? Is my leave time going to expire?"
It seemed that he only got half a month's vacation at that time?
He opened the calendar.
Then, everything went dark - it was exactly one day longer.
...This damn familiar bad luck debuff.
The white-haired young man next to him immediately laughed out loud without any hesitation.
