Chapter 288 Thirty-three Villains
When the banquet started, Morofushi Jingguang and his companions were waiting in the corridor outside the banquet hall, still thinking about a very important question in their mind.
Before them, had the public security department ever sent any undercover seniors with a high enough status to be able to obtain such intelligence?
The 22-year-old Morobushi Jingguang knew nothing about it, but the 27-year-old Scotland knew that the answer was no. He and his childhood friend were undercover agents who had climbed to the highest position in the public security organization at that time. But maybe the truth is that there was indeed such a predecessor back then, but he died in the line of duty later?
After thinking about it, Morofushi Jingguang denied this guess himself.
No, that still doesn't quite explain it.
Morobushi Kagemitsu has a deep understanding of the organization. Although he doesn't know what the organization is trading this time, he knows that Kaluya has a very high position in the organization, even higher than Gin. The fact that the organization sent out such a Kaluya for this transaction is enough to show how much importance the organization attaches to this transaction.
It is conceivable that for a transaction that the organization attaches so much importance to, the number of people who know the inside story will not exceed three, and they are estimated to be of the same level as Bermode and Gin... You can't say that Bermode is an undercover police officer, right? He wouldn't dare to dream of such a beautiful thing.
Morofu Jingguang didn't even think about Gin at all. He always felt that whenever he put the code name Gin and the words "public security undercover" together, his head and stomach would start to ache.
For the sake of his health, he should not think about things that can easily shorten his life.
In short, after excluding Vermode and Gin, the only one left is 'Kalua' Akae Nazuki. Morofushi Kagemitsu hopes from the bottom of his heart that the other party can be the undercover senior, but the information he has confirmed based on clues is that Akae Nazuki is an undercover sent to the police academy by the organization.
So not to mention that the other party dropped out of school on the first day of school this time, even if Chijiang Nayue was really an undercover agent of the public security, she was a double undercover agent who went from the organization to the police and then returned to the organization. It was impossible for her to leak such important information to the public security.
He pressed his forehead in slight distress.
Gaining memories from other timelines did not make Morobushi Kagemitsu lose himself. This feeling is very subtle, but the fact is that he can indeed distinguish between 'Scotland' and 'Morobushi Kagemitsu' very well. He only occasionally forgets this distinction and habitually thinks about the things around him from the perspective of a public security undercover.
Just calm down... He is still just a police academy student who hasn't even graduated yet.
Morobushi Kagemitsu also has something to say about this matter. When Hakata met Sharon, he and Zero had not yet recovered their memories, so they naturally would not avoid talking to each other about their identities as police academy students, not to mention that earlier, when they met Akae that month in this timeline, they had never concealed their identities.
In this way, I will definitely not be able to organize undercover operations in the future.
Imagine if they followed the original trajectory and went undercover in the organization. It would be fine if they couldn't get in touch with the code members in the early stages, but once they got the code names and participated in the action meetings of the code members, they would look at each other in bewilderment at the meeting. And Belmode's personality would make her take the trouble to ask them in public, "The benefits of being a police officer are so good, why would you switch to this organization?"
Maybe he would even say something like 'I still remember that time when you were in a gigolo club...' in a nostalgic tone.
Morofushi Jingguang felt suffocated just by imagining that scene.
Stop thinking about this!
"Are you still thinking about the deal?" A voice from Xiao Huan came from beside him.
"Yeah, there are some things I'm concerned about." Morobushi Kagemitsu smiled nonchalantly and replied, "Zero too, right?"
Furuya Rei nodded silently.
To be precise, they both really cared about today's banquet and the secret deals that took place at the banquet, but their main concerns were quite different.
Although he felt a little uncomfortable with the overly serious Furuya Rei since he knew Akae Nazuki's identity as a 'criminal', at this moment, he was still worried when he spoke -
"I saw Chijiang when I came back from the banquet hall just now." The blond, dark-skinned future police officer tilted his head in the direction of Yu Xunran and whispered about the meeting in the banquet hall. He then added his thoughts, "No matter what his identity is, if the public security takes action later... there will probably be no room for redemption."
Chi Jiang Na Yue clearly had the opportunity to stay away from the terrible organization and become an excellent and respected police officer. She clearly didn't have to live cautiously in the dark.
Even if it was just as a friend, Furuya Rei felt very... regretful? Not completely, he couldn't accurately describe his complicated feelings at the moment, but he could sense the thought in his heart that he didn't want Akae Nazuki to be completely labeled as a member of the organization.
However, Morobushi Kagemitsu, who knew more about the organization and Akae Nazuki than he did, had a completely opposite view, especially when he heard Akae Nazuki claiming to be Miss Amami's assistant. Morobushi Kagemitsu held back and did not show a subtle expression directly.
He seemed to have heard this name somewhere else... Tianhai and a member of the organization, and the description of short black hair and blue eyes, why does it sound so much like Curacao under Rum?
When he was still working as Scotland, he had cooperated with Curacao several times, so he knew that what he had seen was Curacao in disguise. He was an intelligence agent, so it was normal for him to hide his appearance, so Morobushi Kagemitsu didn't pay much attention to it.
If we really want to talk about someone who is capable of teaming up with Kaluuya to complete missions, Curacao seems to be a real possibility.
But the problem is, Curacao's status is obviously lower than Kalua's, and it's not just a little bit lower. How could Kalua be the former's assistant in social status... To put it in a slightly different way, can you imagine that Gin's fake identity is Bourbon's detective assistant?
Morobushi Kagemitsu's expression began to become distorted by that strange imagination, and he had this reaction more than once tonight.
He cleared his throat awkwardly and whispered, "Maybe there's something wrong with the person we need to worry about?"
Na Yuehui called himself an assistant, probably to divert the attention of the public security department, so that they would think that he would not be an important figure in the organization.
The fact that Na Yue did this was enough to show that she was really concerned about this mission. But it was still unclear who would be in danger.
Scotland knew Kalua, and Morobushi Kagemitsu knew Akae Nazuki, so he knew.
"Nan Yue is not someone who would just sit there and wait for others to save him." He said half seriously, "Since it was his decision, I think he is fully prepared."
A head suddenly popped up from between the two of them. Hagiwara Kenji held Morobushi Kagemitsu with one hand and Furuya Rei with the other, and said calmly with a smile, "That's right, so we just need to do what we should do - such as reaching out to pull Xiao Nayue back. I guess he has already prepared everything else, right?"
This means——
"Whether we come or not, whether he chooses us or stays, he must have a follow-up plan." Matsuda Jinpei yawned and added in agreement, "You think too much, Zero. He's a little control freak. Do you think he will really let things develop to the point of no return?"
"Maybe he just lacks a reason," Ida said, "and we can create such a reason."
It has to be said that based on the four people's understanding of Chi Jiang Na Yue in their memories, their analysis was actually very correct, and they might really be able to pull their good friends who were not really against them out of the darkness in this way.
However, there was always a lingering feeling of unease in Furuya Rei's heart, and his intuition told him that things might not be that simple.
His peers said that this time was probably the same as before, and that Akae Nazuki deliberately wanted them to misunderstand that he was a bad guy in order to facilitate the restart of the timeline.
However, the only one among the five who has not yet recovered his memory, Rei Furuya, almost instinctively has a liking for Akae Nazuki, but is also wary of her. He actually does not completely agree with the views of his peers.
Furiya Rei licked his dry lips unconsciously and smiled bitterly in his heart: Maybe this is real this time, and not the wolf coming.
—
Chijiang Nayue touched the tip of her nose and felt someone talking about her. She was certain in her heart: [Zero must have realized it.]
He knew that the other four friends who had recovered their memories would definitely be influenced by the Akae Nayue in their memories when it came to matters concerning him. However, if they really applied that way of thinking to him, he would definitely lose miserably.
Not only because he is not the stupid Kaluuya in their memory who seems to have inherited the true teachings of Dazai Sensei, but also because he is now holding a genuine villain script.
This is no joke.
Because the undercover senior that Morobushi Jingguang was thinking about, the person who passed the information about the organization's transaction to the public security... was Akae Nazuki himself.
The big devil whistled in his heart.
Regardless of whether he was taken back to Yokohama by his teacher after his parents' death, every one of him who lived to the age of 19 would have met someone from the Public Security Bureau before that and been contacted by Chief Kuroda, and finally established contact with the other party at the request of Karasuma Renya to facilitate his future admission to the police academy.
Even though Kalua dropped out of school on the first day of school in this timeline, the contact with Commander Kuroda was not cut off. Kalua went back and killed Karasuma Renya and then committed suicide without passing any information to the public security.
After Chi Jiang arrived that month, in order to justify his dropping out of school, he simply used the excuse of "being contacted by people organized in advance" to make the police think that he dropped out of school in order to be an undercover agent more reasonably.
From the perspective of the public security department, the organization would basically not speculate that a person who has not even entered the police academy would have any connection with the public security department.
So now, in the eyes of the organization, Kaluya is one of their own who was once sent undercover to the police but returned on the first day of school. In the eyes of the public security, Akjiang Nayue is the only child of an undercover couple who died in the organization, and he is one of their own who infiltrated the organization to avenge his parents.
Both sides feel that he is theirs, isn't that exciting?
Akae Nazuki had done more exciting things before, so she didn't take it seriously. As for whether the resurrected Kaluuya decided to stay in the organization and become the future helmsman of the underworld, or stab the organization and return to the Public Security Bureau to become an undercover agent who endures humiliation, it has nothing to do with Akae Nazuki.
During the time before Chi Jiang Nanyue left this world, he had only one role-playing goal: to do bad things sincerely to attract the attention of all his friends and create a living environment for them that would not let them die easily... a super invincible villain!
As long as he is the biggest bad guy, no other bad guy can bypass him and hurt his friends. Akajinazuki always feels that his teacher might have thought the same when he became the mafia boss.
Will the villain care about the life and death of others? Of course not, so Akae Nayue ordered Gin to install those bombs, in theory, so that he could blow up the public security and all the ordinary people here if he was unhappy.
However, apart from acting, the savior himself would care, so after Chi Jiang revealed the information to the public security that month, he also tried to help Zhu Fu Jingguang and the others, and asked the public security to transfer his colleague who was proficient in bomb disposal skills and very trustworthy.
What does the Savior have to do with Kaluya? What about passing information to the police? Kaluya doesn't know. He just wants to use this information to deceive the police and invite everyone to watch a fireworks display.
[Book] Having seen many things that Dazai Osamu did, he was not at all unacceptable to Akae Nazuki's behavior. He was even a little relieved that Xiaohong had become much more restrained. This time, he probably didn't need to argue with the world consciousness here for too long, which was good.
Several people outside were having a conversation, and of course there was no pause inside.
On the one hand, Curacao, confused inside but calm on the surface, accepted the identity of the general manager who had been contacted in advance. At the suggestion of Akjiang Nayue, he brought the Count of Guise and the agent lady who were in charge of this matter to the rest area where they could talk in peace. On the other hand, Akjiang Nayue took the initiative to offer to lead the way to the Duke and the Prince.
"There is a suite on the second floor of the banquet hall specially prepared for His Highness and His Excellency the Duke." The assistant said with a graceful smile, "If you two don't mind, please allow me to lead you there."
The duke seemed to want to say something, but before he could speak, the young prince spoke first. From his every move, it was not difficult to tell that he had grown up in a non-serious environment, and at the same time, he was also a young boy with an excellent etiquette education.
Chijiang Nayue blinked, and slightly curled the corners of her mouth as she turned around and led the way.
It was because of his excellent etiquette education that the little Prince Jill forced himself to show his discomfort at the banquet he had to attend. He even concealed it so well that the Duke, who didn't seem to really care about him, didn't notice it at all. And because it was a banquet, the little prince's attendants did not follow him all the time.
The mature and independent little prince is very interesting, but since he is a child, he has the right to act coquettishly.
What's more, this is an extremely smart child.
Sure enough, not long after entering the lounge, the little prince found an excuse to send the Duke and the bodyguard out the door, and stayed alone in the lounge to face this "little assistant".
The bodyguards naturally disagreed, but the Duke looked at the black-haired assistant who had led them all the way here, and finally agreed to this somewhat willful request for some reason and walked out of the room.
As for the assistant who was asked to stay, he kept a decent smile throughout, like a welded mask, and it was unclear whether he had any opinion on this.
When the lounge was cleared, the blond-haired, green-eyed little prince sat on the sofa and looked at him with the same curious eyes as before in the banquet hall. He said, "Actually, Mr. Chijiang is the general manager. Miss Tianhai is your assistant, right?"
The air in the lounge was silent for a while.
The smile on Chi Jiang's moon-like lips deepened. He had no intention of making excuses, but he still reminded him seriously: "Your Highness, it's better to say this when the bodyguards are still here. It will be safer for you. Otherwise, what if I'm going to silence you?"
Jill looked at him, not frightened by his words, and still looked calm: "Since you chose to show up in this way, it means that you need a living me. Normally, if you don't kill me, other people who are only one door away will rescue me faster than you."
…
Chi Jiang Na Yue, who was not an ordinary person, smiled unchanged: "Yeah, that makes sense."
Even though it didn't take him even a few seconds to kill the kid in front of him, the kid was certainly exaggerating.
Of course, after praising Chi Jiang, Na Yue did not end the topic. Instead, she glanced at the door and said meaningfully, "But sometimes, danger may come from behind, your wise highness."
After all, among these foreign visitors, the one who actually made deals with the organization was Duke Killard. He was responsible for providing the organization with ore, while the organization was responsible for...
For the Duke who wants that country, remove the obstacles.
This part of the plan was also made by Chijiang Nayue, but he had no intention of making the deal happen in the first place, so even though the original plan was for Gin to listen to what was going on here through headphones and blow up the banquet hall once the deal was reached, he reminded the little prince without any concealment.
[Don't do unnecessary things, Kalua.] Gin's cold voice sounded in the headset.
[Compared to helping that ambitious and ugly duke to seize the throne, I still prefer this little prince.] - Such a message was blindly sent to Gin by Akae Nazuki behind his back.
The person in the headset sneered and was too lazy to pay attention to him.
Akajina Yue curled her lips secretly and decided that she must leave a message for Kaluya in this world and ask Kaluya to make things difficult for Gin on her behalf.
Don't worry, he is very experienced in this!
