Chapter 304 Thirty-nine Presidents
Shuichi Akai stared blankly at the scenery passing by outside the car window, while in his ears he could hear the discussions of the other people who were in the same room with him at the moment.
"...Think about it carefully. It is impossible that such important information as the marriage of the leader of the Port Mafia has not been leaked at all. Since someone knows about it and wants to kidnap you, the public security should not know nothing."
This is Bourbon's analysis voice - oh sorry, that person has long since changed back to Officer Furuya's identity, but Akai Shuichi has had too many dreams recently, so he occasionally makes mistakes that he can't correct.
It sounds like these people have finally calmed down? Akai Shuichi thought to himself: Who would believe that it was the cautious Rei Furuya, who was shocked by what that person said before? And the others, who usually get along with each other and think that each of them has their own strengths, especially their brains, would believe such words...
What's wrong with you Japanese police?
"And Mr. Nakahara has been in Yokohama for some time, but Nazuki-chan has been put in solitary confinement since the resolution of the Five Degenerations of the Celestial Being incident." Shuichi Akai listened to Officer Hagiwara, a person he had met many times and who had a very nice personality, seriously analyzing the possibilities.
"Before the Five Decays of the Celestial Being incident, Xiao Nayue's frequency of going to Yokohama was the same as before, without a sudden increase. Most of the time he would go home before 10 pm, and occasionally stayed overnight in hotels and the staff dormitory of the detective agency in Yokohama... Hmm? Ah, Noah would report to me regularly, so I remember that Xiao Nayue had basically not stayed in Hong Kong for more than half a year before this. He should have stayed in the Black Headquarters for more than three days."
The five signs of decline of heavenly beings.
Shuichi Akai narrowed his eyes. A month ago, when he was tracking down a serial killer in Boston, he happened to encounter the American native superpower organization [Guild] and learned that their target happened to be the same person.
In exchange for handing over the murderer to the Guild, a psychic with bangs covering his eyes in the other organization told him a piece of information.
[“That Yue-kun commissioned me to write a novel.” Po said, “Well… because he is a companion that Ranpo-kun values, I won’t tell you the specific content, but as a condition, I can tell you that Yokohama will be very uneasy during this period. If you don’t want to die, stay away from there.”]
Edgar Allan Poe is a very good mystery novelist. Even Shuichi Akai, who had just returned to the United States after a long undercover mission, was deeply impressed by him. But this was mostly because Poe was not only a well-known writer, but also a Guild member with special abilities.
Therefore, the information provided by Poe cannot be analyzed solely from Poe's perspective. Shuichi Akai quickly guessed that this was actually a kind reminder from the Guild. The person who really wanted to tell him to stay away from Yokohama was probably the Guild leader Francis, not Poe.
Shuichi Akai didn't know why the "qualified businessman" would tell him such information at a loss. Anyway, he was not planning to go to Yokohama in the near future, so he didn't say much in the end... until his boss James in the FBI asked him not long ago whether he had been in contact with Akagi Nazuki recently.
The answer to this question is undoubtedly yes. As long as we put aside their FBI identities, the relationship between Shuichi Akai and the police officer has always been very good. They even have many common hobbies, not to mention that they saved Akemi and Shirley, and were also the great contributors to the destruction of the organization.
This period was especially bad. Ever since Akai Shuichi started dreaming about things that seemed to happen in another world, he planned to ask Akagi Nayue about it as soon as possible. Unfortunately, he missed it because of some things and the other party never brought it up on his own initiative, so he didn't say much.
After hearing this question from James, Shuichi Akai was still a little confused and concerned, so he said with some reservation that they had indeed contacted each other.
Then he learned that this special friend had done something, no, several things, the previous afternoon.
First, they arrested two members of the recently world-famous terrorist organization "The Five Decays of Heaven", one of whom was said to be the leader of the underground thief group "Rats of the Dead House" that the FBI had been pursuing for a long time. Then, they easily defeated the world-class psychic terrorist Shibozawa Ryuhiko in a battle.
The Clock Tower in England sent people to inquire about the relevant information of Shibuzawa Ryuhiko, but they were defeated by Akajinazuki "equally". The Clock Tower spent a lot of money to "redeem" the psychic it sent out.
"Many of us here can understand his approach," James explained. "After all, the psychic sent by the clock tower could easily destroy the entire Yokohama... Letting such a person go to 'inquire' is threatening in itself."
Threatening Akae Nayue? Akai Shuichi thought without any sympathy in his heart: the last person he remembered doing this must have died a long time ago, it seems that Akae's temper has improved a lot.
Finally, at a meeting of important representatives from all countries with superpowers, Akae Nazuki successfully prevented a terrorist attack on everyone, exposed the true face of the 'Hero of the Far East' Fukuchi Sakurachi, and arrested him while revealing that he was the leader of the [Five Decays of the Celestial Being].
And all this was accomplished in less than five hours.
Shuichi Akai in New York: …
He originally thought that his cognition had been refreshed by the psychic, but he didn't expect that it could be refreshed again.
The memory in his mind lasted only a moment, and Shuichi Akai's attention quickly focused on the second half of what Kenji Hagiwara had just said.
Apart from other things, how on earth do you know Yue Jun's whereabouts so well? And if I understand correctly, you are also using that powerful artificial intelligence to monitor Yue Jun's location all the time? Doesn't anyone think that this level of understanding is a bit scary? Call the police... Oh, they are the police.
Shuichi Akai didn't think that Akae Nazuki didn't know that the artificial intelligence beside her was providing her location to her friends, so this was probably something that Akae Nazuki tacitly approved.
Akai Shuichi once again: ...
What's wrong with you Japanese police?
"Ha, I found you." Shuichi Akai raised his eyes and saw the curly-haired police officer Jinpei Matsuda, who had been fanning the flames when he was talking to Rei Furuya, put his hands on the shoulders of the black-haired woman and moved closer to her with squinted eyes. Their faces were so close at this moment - when Shuichi Akai was undercover in Japan, he usually called this sexual harassment - it was alarming.
Originally, the latter was forced to sit down on a seat while he was recounting that bizarre love story, and the curtains in the room were drawn, so all of them could see the scene clearly, not to mention Matsuda Jinpei, one of the parties involved. He could even see that the other person's eyelashes, which seemed to be shining golden in the sunlight, trembled subconsciously when he approached.
Matsuda Jinpei was unmoved and pointed out proudly: "Your lipstick is the one I bought for Aka just last week, Givenchy Lambskin #301!"
Akae Nayue paused for a moment, then she remembered that this was indeed the case, but it was indeed a mistake. She didn't bring any cosmetics with her when she went to Yokohama, so the one she used was of course newly opened, and it just happened to be the same color as the one bought by Matsuda Jinpei.
Shuichi Akai hesitated for the third time: He was really curious, why did you give lipstick to your male friend, and why could you tell at a glance that the other person was wearing the same color you gave him?
"oops?"
The black-haired woman on the seat seemed confused by her friends' strange reactions today, which made Morofu Jingguang a little uncertain about the guess of the "parallel world". After all, for Akae Nayue, it was just a change of gender, and she shouldn't be so dull. The little devil of a woman would only be more sensitive.
Zhufu Jingguang froze for a moment: Unless the opponent is gathering up a big move.
"It's normal for a beautiful girl to always have a few lipsticks in her bag. This can only mean that Jinpei-kun happened to give me and Mr. Chuuya the same color. Strange, what are you doubting about?"
The girl who claimed to be a beautiful girl looked very dissatisfied. When Morobushi Kagemitsu was frightened but had no time to stop her, she leaned forward a little, raised her hand to cover the neck of Matsuda Jinpei who was close to her, and left a beautiful lip print on the latter's left cheek in front of everyone's shocked gaze.
Then she slowly sat back in her chair, gently brushed her lips with her thumb, curled her lips and smiled, finally revealing her little devil's horns, and it seemed as if a dangling devil's tail emerged from behind her.
"It seems that I have come to a strange world. Judging from your reactions, I am a man here." Akajina Yue was very skilled in lying. She did not look at their reactions when she spoke, but stretched out her hands and leaned back in her chair to admire her nails in the sun. "It's so interesting. Even Zhenping's reaction is so interesting - ah, I forgot."
The non-existent devil's tail swayed, and the black-haired, red-eyed beauty withdrew her hand. Her round nails gently stroked the corners of Matsuda Jinpei's eyes, who was still very close to her. She frivolously flicked his eyelashes, and finally put her two fingers together and blew a kiss to Matsuda Jinpei, who had unknowingly become as stiff as a stone.
“Thank you for the hospitality~”
Matsuda Jinpei was awakened and took a few steps back, covering his left face in disbelief. It was only then that he realized that the person in front of him was not Akae Nazuki in disguise, but a real female version of his good friend.
He is mute.
"Jinpei-chan, you look like you've been molested." Hagiwara Kenji complained quietly beside Matsuda Jinpei, his eyes looking envious, "That's great, Kenji-chan also wants to be kissed by such a beautiful girl."
Matsuda Jinpei's expression seemed to be asking, "Even if that girl is aka?!" Hagiwara Kenji pretended not to notice.
Akae Nazuki blinked and hooked her finger at Hagiwara Kenji who said this. The latter raised his eyebrows and came closer without any hesitation, but still maintained a gentleman's social distance: "What's wrong? Nazuki-chan——"
The former then reached out and grabbed Hagiwara Kenji's tie and pulled it down, leaving a faint lip print on the right cheek of his good friend.
"You're welcome." Akajinazuki smiled and said generously, "I'd also be happy to kiss handsome men like Kenji and Jinpei. Besides, we seem to be good friends no matter which world we are in."
Although he is good at organizing social activities, the young man who has been single since birth was stunned and slightly widened his eyes. However, he reacted quickly and smiled at Chi Jiang Na Yue: "Hey? It's my honor."
Furiya Ling simply couldn't bear to watch this: "Didn't you just say that you were married to Mr. Nakahara? Why are you so skilled..."
And then again, how did they become friends in the world of the female aka? There are no mixed classes for men and women in the police academy, and they rarely meet each other in class. After careful consideration, Furuya Rei thinks that they may have met at a social gathering organized by Hagiwara.
But how could that little devil from the police academy days possibly attend a social event?
The beauty on the chair uttered a cry, tapped her lips with her index finger, and said thoughtfully: "This has nothing to do with Mr. Chuuya and I getting married. We have always been good friends, okay?"
She smiled and winked at him: "Zero, do you want a kiss too? I don't mind."
...Furiya Rei suddenly didn't want to think about what that good friend meant.
He really cares! Even though he used to be an intelligence officer in the organization who was good at honey traps, he could always throw away his bottom line, but he still didn't want to be kissed by a female best friend, right? !
In the corner.
Shuichi Akai felt that he should not be in the box and he should go out.
So why did you so easily accept the existence of this woman who claimed to be Akae Nazuki, and let herself be kissed so calmly (referring only to Hagiwara)? Who of you and him is from America?
You Japanese policemen, what are you doing——
never mind.
Akai Shuichi kept a stern face and slowly closed his eyes.
It would be impolite to continue complaining.
