Chapter 53 Four Shotas

Since the end of last month, the three of them had to move into the same roof for a long-term mission, and Lei hadn't had a peaceful sleep for a long time.

It wasn't because he had no place to sleep. Rather, the safe house that they had taken turns setting up might be several times safer than the one he had set up alone, and was completely sufficient as a place to rest.

However, Ley is an undercover investigator from the FBI, also known as an undercover agent.

His other two roommates joined the organization at the same time as him. They were evenly matched in terms of abilities and code names, and they were real members of the organization.

This kind of situation, almost like a lamb walking into a tiger's mouth, made Lei unable to let down his guard. He could only maintain a state of light sleep and pay great attention to every aspect.

As an undercover agent, Lei is not afraid to go on missions with members of the ferocious organization and can blend in perfectly. However, living with them is different. He may reveal other information at any time because of some small habits that he himself is not aware of.

People's states when they are outside and when they are at home are completely different. The latter is much more subconsciously relaxed than the former, and Lei must make sure that this situation will never happen.

Let alone Bourbon, who was a scarce intelligence officer with excellent skills. They received the codenames at about the same time, so Ley knew how fast Bourbon was climbing up the ladder.

Besides, their relationship has always been bad. If Lei really reveals any details, Bourbon will definitely be the first one to dig out his undercover identity, and then happily accept him as a stepping stone.

As for Scotland, whose temper was already quite bad, after the two had worked together on several missions, Ley became more wary of Scotland than he was of Bourbon.

It is normal for a person who only smiles when the task requires it to be cold all the time in normal days. This is also the side of Lei himself that he shows most of the time.

But a person who is usually strict and serious, has no bad habits, occasionally relaxes and behaves gentle and calm, and is the easiest to get along with other weird members in the organization, can snipe the target family of four without any psychological burden, and even the child in the crib finally died in the sea of ​​fire with his parents.

Even before Ley, who was only responsible for destroying the scene during that mission, left, he heard Scotland in a good mood and making a dinner appointment with Bourbon.

After killing four people with a gun, Bourbon's frank cruelty was not uncommon, but Scotland's hidden cruelty was even more terrifying. Ley knew that if his identity was exposed, his two good roommates would definitely be the first to rush to kill him for credit.

He could trust them temporarily when they were doing their job, but he could never let his guard down at any other time.

Likewise, if given the chance, Ley believed he would have captured both Bourbon and Scotland without hesitation.

Last night, Lei returned to the safe house for a rare sleep after completing his scouting work in Hakata. In order to prevent Bourbon from saying something like "Are you hiding out there with something to hide" in a sarcastic tone as he did several times before, he deliberately returned to the apartment before six o'clock.

Just after he opened the door, the above idea changed slightly.

Lei stood calmly at the entrance and met the eyes of Chijiang Nayue who was standing beside the sofa.

A little boy with messy hair, wearing nothing but a bloodstained white coat, appeared in their temporary safe house and was heading towards the three bedrooms.

Great, is this a Bourbon or a Scottish masterpiece? The answer probably determines which of the two people Ley plans to arrest first.

—

Akajang Nayue knew very well that his only goal in the short term was to ensure that the three people living in this safe house all got his script smoothly, and this required him to control all the details when playing the role of Subject A and pay more attention to disguise than the spirit behind the scenes who could occasionally reveal his true nature.

Because after he leaves, the little Chijiang in this world will still have to come back, although the other party may not call him by this name at that time.

The spirit behind the scenes can reveal its little devil nature without any worries, however, Chijiang Nayue herself is also very clear about it.

Compared to the later period, he could really be called a "little angel" before the age of five... I don't want to admit it, but the fact is, he was a child who would even believe Dazai Osamu's nonsense like "you jumped out of a bamboo tube".

When she thought about how she would have to reduce the number of times she bullied her friends in this world, Akajinazuki couldn't help but reveal a melancholy expression.

Because he needed to play the role without being suspected, he did not let down his guard after leaving the Scottish room. He just put on a curious expression and pulled out all the eavesdropping and surveillance devices in the living room one by one, piling them on the coffee table.

He tiptoed beside the tea table, feeling extremely complicated.

...I didn't expect that Hiro and the others lived together like this before they opened up. Is it really impossible that they would take a picture of something in the middle of the night that would cause a child to get a stye after seeing it?

Don't get me wrong, he's referring to their high-definition nude photos... As far as Akae Nazuki knows, the childhood sweethearts, Furuya Rei and Morobushi Kagemitsu, are the ones who like to sleep naked, while the FBI guy, Akai Shuichi, often comes out of the shower wrapped in a bath towel.

If the data from these surveillance cameras were copied, it would surely be another piece of dark history that would stand out among his collections.

Even though he knew that the three of them were still on alert against each other at this stage, and therefore the situation he imagined would never happen, Chi Jiang Na Yue's eyes were still filled with regret.

He knew that when Bourbon came back, he would check the nearby surveillance to find his origins, and the surveillance and eavesdropping in the living room would not be missed. This was one of the reasons why he acted so devotedly.

Taking out all the equipment was just like the curiosity that Chi Jiang Na Yue had deliberately "accidentally" revealed along the way, it was purely his own plan.

A perfect play is one that pays attention to details even when there are no cameras or audiences.

Perhaps other people will not discover these clues hidden in the subtle places at first, but when the script is completely handed over to them and they recall every detail, they will suddenly realize that the truth has already been in front of them.

Everything is logical and natural.

This will make the things he made up seem more real. After all, people only believe what they see with their own eyes.

Then he showed them, and let them make these things real themselves.

Chijiang Nayue calculated the time in his mind. When he released the [Book], he also discovered the locations of the other two people. He estimated that Lei should be back by now.

The black-haired boy began to look uninterested, and it seemed that he quickly lost interest in the things he had found on the coffee table. He instead held the hem of his white coat and easily slipped out from the gap between the sofa and the coffee table, then turned around and walked back, almost counting the seconds in his heart.

Click.

The entrance door opens from the outside.

Chi Jiangnayue turned around and saw a man with long hair and a knitted hat standing there. A bag of guns was slung over his shoulder. His deep green eyes looked in his direction with a frown.

Yes, the audience is back.

So under Lei's gaze, the little boy who was suspected to be abducted by the other two roommates looked at him, immediately revealed complicated emotions, and then quickly ran behind the sofa and hid.

Since the body was only about five years old, it was not as high as the sofa back when it stood there, so by the time Lei Yi reacted and wanted to move forward, the child had only left him with a tuft of hair that barely rose above the back of the sofa.

Ley was speechless and confused: Did he look scary?

—

After Bourbon entered the apartment building, he met Scotland carrying shopping bags in front of the elevator.

Since Ley was not around, both of them were more relaxed. Bourbon looked down and casually flipped through the bag in his friend's hand, and asked curiously, "Children's clothes?"

"It's a long story." Scotland pressed his forehead with a headache, "I met a kid who looked about four or five years old. I bought this for him."

"Just be sensible." Bourbon said in a complicated tone, "Where is the child? I'll help you send him there."

He has always known that Yuujinran's personality is not suitable for undercover work, and Hiro is too soft-hearted. He also knows that Yuujinran is a very serious and sensible person and will not do anything out of line. But for safety reasons, he still needs him to help share the suspicions that Lei might have.

Then Bourbon heard Scotland say awkwardly: "Well, actually I took him back."

"…Are you serious?"

Bourbon, who had been close to Scotland for almost 20 years, quickly understood the meaning of Scotland's action and said firmly, "There is something wrong with that child."

As they were talking, the two of them were already standing at the door of the safe house.

Seeing that the door was ajar, they both stopped talking and thought of a terrible possibility.

Lei got back before them!

Scotland's heartstrings tensed for a second, but he quickly calmed down.

The child seemed to be very obedient and would not be scared by Lei's movements.

He exchanged a glance with Bourbon, who immediately reached out and opened the door. The two saw a strange scene at first sight.

A poorly dressed little boy stood on the dining table, his back unconsciously hunched, his eyes fixed in the direction of Lei, as if he would continue to dodge if the other party came closer in the next second.

After hearing the sound of the door opening, the child reacted immediately. He turned around and jumped off the dining table without hesitation, and jumped into Scotland's arms in three or two steps, grabbing the hem of Scotland's clothes tightly with both hands.

Scotland and Bourbon immediately gave Ley sharp looks.

Lei looked speechless and puzzled: "I didn't do anything at all..."

"I hate green." The child's voice sounded muffled, with a hint of genuine disgust and fear. But while speaking, he also tried to raise his head and look towards Lei, avoiding his face, and apologized politely and obediently, "I'm sorry, I don't hate you, sir."

"I didn't expect that someone has become so ferocious that even children are afraid of him." Bourbon never missed any opportunity to exclude Lei, and was committed to making Lei take the initiative to break up with their partnership out of anger, with a mocking expression.

Lei did not let his attention be diverted to respond to these words. He looked at Scotland, raised his eyebrows and asked: "Did you bring this kid back?"

His tone sounded very wrong.

Thinking of this, Scotland looked down at the child beside him and suddenly remembered why he went out alone to buy children's clothes. He couldn't help but take a breath and said, "Wait, this is a misunderstanding. I can explain it."

As Scotland spoke, the child pursed his lips again.

Perhaps he was worried that Scotland would go back on his word, so he grabbed the corner of Scotland's clothes again, raised his head and emphasized anxiously: "You promised me that you could be my new master!"

Feeling two pairs of shocked eyes cast upon him, Scotland could not help but cover his face with his hands.

Finished.

“…I can really explain it.”
