Chapter 120 Chapter 120 Another Storm
The time of waiting is always longer and more unbearable.
Atobe Keigo stood at the junction of the parking lot and the amusement park, pacing back and forth, just wanting to see Tamane come out as soon as possible and make sure she was safe.
He waited and waited until the noise from the Ferris wheel died down, until the power in the park was restored, until a large number of police cars and rescue vehicles swarmed in, and until many tourists rushed to the parking lot, ready to leave this thrilling place, before he finally spotted Yuyin in the crowd.
The only difference from what he had imagined was that the figure was surrounded by dark clouds, and the atmosphere was extremely low.
Atobe Keigo's heart skipped a beat. He ran forward quickly and asked, "Yuyin, are you okay?" Without waiting for her to answer, he scanned her from head to toe to make sure there was no visible wound within his sight. Only then did Atobe's heart, which had been hanging in the air, calm down a little.
"I'm fine."
Yuyin slowly shook her head, perhaps noticing the obvious worry on Atobe's face. She tried to curl the corners of her mouth and put on a soothing smile. However, she had just been furious because the penguin was hurt and had scolded Gin, so she couldn't change her mood naturally for a while.
That's right, Yuyin has now learned from Curacao the name of the culprit and the existence of a cruel dark organization whose senior members use the names of alcohol as code names.
Originally, this kind of dark organization that did not involve special abilities was not within her authority to manage or interfere. However, Gin's bold and cold-blooded bombardment of the Ferris wheel, which almost caused serious casualties, really annoyed her. It was not because she wanted to avenge the suffering penguin, but she decided to take care of this "other business".
At that time, Curacao warned her with great concern, "Are you sure you really want to interfere in the organization's affairs?"
Yuyin nodded affirmatively. After asking about the cause and effect of the amusement park incident, she took Curacao to a remote corner to wait for Fushimi to pick her up. Then, just like the last juvenile detention center incident, she made a realistic "doll" imitating Curacao's corpse and threw it near the crushed crane, making the public security and the organization believe that she had died in this incident.
When Fushimi finally arrived, she chatted with him for a few words. Fushimi joked that she had to work overtime in exchange for his help - just like what the Special Ability Agent Department did to whitewash the identities of Oda Sakunosuke and Dazai Osamu, to erase Curacao's past tainted files and establish a new, clean identity.
After doing all this and handing Curacao over to Fushimi, she took the time to visit the penguin house, which was severely damaged and now in a mess, to treat the injured penguins. After that, she quietly disappeared into the crowd, like an ordinary tourist who came to play but was greatly frightened. She passed the gaze of the public security or police patrolling at the exit and walked out of the vortex of the incident tonight.
All this happened in just one hour, but it was truly thrilling. The situation was quite complicated, involving secrets from multiple organizations or institutions, all of which could not be revealed to Jingwu.
But after seeing Jingwu's worried expression, Yuyin felt a sense of returning to reality, from that bizarre world full of crises and responsibilities, to the down-to-earth, peaceful and warm real world.
"It's really okay."
Seeing that Atobe didn't seem to believe her, she emphasized her point again, then pouted and expressed her serious dissatisfaction to him, "...Keigo, you don't know how badly the penguin aquarium has been damaged because of this. I made a special detour to take a look. Many penguins were injured or cut by the building rocks. But now the rescue team is downstairs, who will care about the penguins and the animals in the aquarium?"
So you were worried about the penguins... Atobe breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that.
He understood that Yuyin wasn't a radical environmentalist or animal protectionist who believed that animals' lives took precedence over humans'. It was just that in this situation, he couldn't help but feel pity for the innocent animals affected by human behavior. He immediately assured her, "Don't worry, I'll contact Suzuki and have her family relocate the animals in the aquarium. The Suzuki Group's reconstruction capabilities are second to none in the island nation, and it shouldn't be long before everything is back to normal. You don't have to worry too much."
After hearing this, Yuyin felt a little more cheerful. She understood that after the incident, the rescue forces were under pressure and it was inevitable to prioritize rescuing people. As long as she got Jingwu's promise and knew that there was someone who would not completely ignore the creatures in the aquarium, she would be satisfied.
"Let's go," Tamane walked over to Atobe and stood shoulder to shoulder. "We finally got a day off to relax, but we ran into this unexpected disaster. It's a good thing you didn't get on that Ferris wheel, Jingwu. What if you got hurt and it affected next week's game?"
As Yuyin spoke, she felt a little scared and was genuinely worried. If she hadn't had a strong intuition and noticed something was wrong when she was taken from Curacao by the police to ride the Ferris wheel, she would have stopped Jingwu from riding and taken him away from the scene. Today's incident would not have been something that could be dismissed with a light "Fortunately, nothing happened."
"Isn't it all right?" Hearing her genuine worry from Yuyin's tone, Atobe patted her head gently and said softly, "Besides, it was me who said I was going to the aquarium today. If it weren't for you, I would have been in trouble. You saved me again."
Every move of the loved one will be magnified and beautified a hundred times or a thousand times in the eyes of those who care about her, but Tezuka believes that she has no filter at all. She is just so kind and beautiful, with a heart of gold.
"Oh, I'm tired of saying it's my duty. Jingwu, if you really care about me, just give me a raise and bonus, haha..."
"Bonus?" Atobe Keigo pondered, pulling out his phone and card wallet, "Should I call them there, or directly to you?"
For the first time in her life, Yuyin felt speechless and quickly waved her hands: "I was just kidding, just kidding, there's really no need to send money!"
Under the projection of the street lights that had been lit again, the shadows of the two people on the ground seemed to be intertwined, moving away together with the footsteps of the shadow owners.

That night, after learning about the incident at the amusement park from the driver, the housekeeper Shanzhi became worried again and ran around asking about their well-being.
Yuyin looked at the dessert supper in front of her, which was twice as much as usual, and fully felt the warm comfort of Butler Yamaji.
I turned on the TV and saw the news reporting a serious accident at the Dongdu Aquarium. The news only briefly touched on the cause of the accident and made no mention of the public security or the stolen secrets.
Of course, the fact that the police had stolen confidential intelligence had not been reported in the news before, and the public was completely unaware of it. Now that it has caused a serious accident, they will not take the initiative to mention it and expose it.
Yuyin learned the whole story from Curacao, and knew that she was ordered by the organization's second-in-command, Rum, to sneak into the police department to steal the Red Team's undercover list, which included but was not limited to undercover personnel from the FBI, CIA, Island National Public Security, MI6, BND... Once this list fell into the hands of the Jiuming organization, all the undercover agents could be caught in one fell swoop.
Yuyin no longer wanted to complain about the magic of this list. The intelligence secretly stored in the National Police Agency actually included the undercover lists and code names of other countries in the world. This sounded outrageous, but what if the Public Security Bureau also had a triple undercover intelligence officer as powerful as Mr. Ango? It was not completely impossible.
Judging from the list itself, this winery organization is simply a gathering of world intelligence agents. Even so, it has not collapsed yet. It is indeed very powerful!
Moreover, Curacao also emphasized that the person who was responsible for helping her escape this time was Gin, a well-known killer in the organization's action team. He was cold-blooded and ruthless. As soon as he found out that she intended to escape, he immediately ordered a sweep of the Ferris wheel without caring about the lives of the surrounding tourists. Curacao told Yuyin to be careful not to bump into Gin's hands.
Yuyin was very surprised. She had no idea that because she passionately insulted Gin for a full ten minutes for the sake of the penguin, Curacao was very worried that she would confront Gin impulsively, so he explained the matter between the organization and Gin in detail, for fear that she would rush forward without understanding the inside story.
In fact, Curacao was worrying too much. Yuyin would of course let the director and his team worry about such matters. After all, there were many organizations and forces in the complex world. Although the main responsibility of Scepter 4 was to prevent people with super powers such as those outside their jurisdiction from causing damage to society, maintaining social order and protecting the lives and safety of the majority of the people was the unswerving belief of Scepter 4. With the director's style, he would not let go of a dark force that acted recklessly and caused trouble in the island country.
So if they really had to take action against the winery, Yuyin felt that it was not her turn, so she would just cheer and provide assistance to the director, Miss Awashima and the others from behind.
Sure enough, when she was sitting on the expensive leather sofa in the Atobe family and leisurely finishing a small cake, a new message from Fushimi came.
Fushimi: [I have brought the person back to my room safely.]
Fushimi: [I compiled the information I learned from her and just reported it to the director. The director praised you for doing a good job this time :D]
Yuyin moved her fingers and sent: [? ]
Worried she didn't understand, Fushimi explained from the beginning: "The Special Ability Division has asked us to help investigate Francis Scott Key Fitzgerald, a wealthy American tycoon. He's the leader of the American supernatural organization, the Guild. He appears to have ulterior motives for entering the country, but he has diplomatic immunity. The Special Ability Division is worried he might cause trouble in Yokohama with the Guild's men."
Yuyin speculated: [So this is related to what happened today?]
Fushimi: [Specifically, it's connected to that dark organization. According to Curacao's confession, before she carried out her mission to infiltrate the National Police Agency, she was assigned to collect rumors about the "Human Tiger" and the "Book" in Yokohama for the organization. She overheard that this intelligence gathering mission was a quid pro quo for cooperation with the organization by a wealthy man named Fitzgerald.]
Yuyin pondered: [Are you saying that the Guild leader is collaborating with the winery organization? Is it to find this "human tiger" and "book"?]
Fushimi: [That's probably the case. Thankfully, you contacted me today and handed over the Curacao to us. Otherwise, it would have taken a lot of effort to find out Fitzgerald's purpose for entering the country this time, and that he's already collaborating with the winery organization.]
