Chapter 48: At the winery, you can just be like this...
“…”
Falling from a great height, he only had time to temporarily cushion his fall before crashing directly onto the water. His entire body felt as if he had hit a steel plate, and an indescribable dull pain spread throughout his body.
All audible sounds disappeared the moment he fell into the water.
The water rushed into his ears and nasal cavity first. The instinctive panic of losing oxygen and the double pain in his body made him try hard to open his eyes underwater. He saw the blood flowing from the gunshot wound on his waist turning into light red in front of his eyes, and then being diluted and disappeared in the next second.
This was part of their advance planning.
The bullet that hit the bulletproof plate on his chest was used to confuse Gin's judgment, and Lei's subsequent shot in his waist and abdomen added a layer of credibility.
Across the water, he could vaguely see a figure on the bridge looking down.
Zhu Fujingguang followed the plan and allowed himself to move with the flow of the water without resisting or struggling, allowing himself to sink and float like a real corpse.
A trustworthy officer from the public security department would be waiting for him downstream. He only had to wait to be pulled out of the water and then treat the gunshot wound on his waist.
As I gradually sank, all sounds from the outside world were cut off, even the rapid beating of my heart in my chest due to nervousness became muffled. All the anxiety and worry seemed to disappear without a trace during this period.
The double hypothermia caused by the gunshot wound and soaking in water made Zhu Fujingguang's consciousness a little blurred.
Is it really too much for him?
I hope Gin won't suddenly want to identify the body of the traitor Scotland.
The Japanese police who were sent in advance to pick him up were pulled out of the water, and the injury on his waist was properly treated urgently. Zhu Fujingguang did not look at the person who was picking him up. The ends of his hair were still dripping with water, and his slightly dazed eyes looked straight at the distant place where he came from.
Help him escape this step smoothly with cooperation.
Temporary success does not mean there will be no risks in the future.
I don’t know if Zero and the others can deceive Gin later.
He is an extremely perceptive and dangerous man...
Especially his undisguised disgust for undercover agents, which would not allow anyone any chance of survival.
His brows were furrowed in restraint, and worry was inevitably mixed in his eyes.
"Officer Zhufu?" The informant saw him frowning and asked in a questioning tone.
"...Nothing, let's get out of here as soon as possible."
Zhu Fujingguang withdrew his gaze when the other party spoke, and at the same time sorted out his emotions.
Worrying won't help them in any real way.
Instead, it will only allow your heart to be eroded by restlessness and anxiety.
What he should do most now is to leave the scene to prevent Gin from finding out.
Zhu Fu Jingguang silently read out the names of the three people, stood up resolutely, and walked into the inky night with the people around him.
Hopefully... tomorrow will be a nice day.
Before they discussed how to make the Scottish identity "die" under Gin's nose and let the other party witness and confirm this fact with his own eyes, they considered the possibility that the other people would put on a show in front of Gin at that time.
"Ah, discussing what will happen after my death is a very strange feeling..." Even the current Zhufu Jingguang would probably think so.
When it comes to acting, whether he is an FBI agent who has undergone layers of special training, or Bourbon who uses a mask to disguise his own personality and has honed the ability to keep his emotions expressionless in the organization, he is not a candidate that needs to be worried about.
The only thing to worry about is...
Three pairs of eyes, some obvious and some subtle, were all looking in the same direction.
Fushimi Kyoki suddenly became the focus: Oo?
Surprisingly, it doesn't feel strange.
I've even gotten used to the fact that the other person puts on a friendly and harmless face and says a lot of frightening things.
Morofushi Kagemitsu remembered that before his identity was exposed, he had exchanged information with Amuro Toru and the two talked about a topic that had nothing to do with the organization and was only related to childhood friends.
"Hiro."
As the conversation drew to a close, Amuro Toru chose not to end the topic. Instead, he scanned his face with an inquiring gaze, not missing any subtle expression. Following his intuition, he asked sharply, "Has your recent concern for Kuroko gone beyond normal limits?"
Should I say it's worthy of being called Zero?
He did not show any obvious closeness, but just slightly restrained some of Scotland's dark aura belonging to the organization, and as a result, the change was immediately noticed.
"...So I was so obvious."
Amuro Toru hummed, "That guy Lei must have noticed it, but he probably thinks he's just trying to get along with Kuroko, so it won't arouse suspicion. But I want to know your attitude towards Kuroko."
“…” Zhu Fujingguang was silent for a moment.
He had clearly told Zero not long ago that he would not try to instigate the other side.
But also at the same time, the other party prevented the bomb from exploding in the apartment where Kenji Hagiwara was.
The balance that was originally firmly tilted to one side was swaying due to the increase and decrease of the weight of the weights on both sides, and it tended to gradually tilt.
——That’s all.
It sways unsteadily, but never completely exceeds the weight of the other side.
Until he was questioned face to face by Amuro Toru, or rather, just asked a slightly more serious question, facing the direct question from Yu Junran, Morofushi Keimitsu's closed heart seemed to be opened, and the thoughts hidden deep inside poured out.
"The situation in my second year of graduate school..." He paused, "was very thrilling."
When the two were alone, Fūya Rei told him the whole process, but later on, Morofushi Kagemitsu pieced together a more complete account of what happened by combining the various scenes.
The fear of almost losing his peers instantly soaked the fabric on his back with cold sweat, and also shook his impression of the player.
"I've been thinking recently... maybe we can let Fushimi become our informant in the organization." Zhu Fushimi said, "Persuade or bribe..."
However, judging from the contact during this period, the other party is not the type of person with high material desires.
"That's not what I'm asking!"
However, Toru Amuro acted out of character and waved his hands in a very ungraceful manner without even waiting for Keimitsu Morifushi to finish his words. He frowned as if he had heard an incomprehensible proposal, and a complex expression of resistance appeared on his face.
"…Sorry, I got a little excited."
Realizing from Morifushi Keimitsu's stunned expression that he had overreacted, Amuro Toru readily admitted his mistake, but persisted in getting an answer from Morifushi Keimitsu, persistently asking, "Hiro, I want to ask, are you right..."
"No."
Morofushi Kagemitsu said this to Toru Amuro, who looked a bit confused after being interrupted. Worried that his friend might not believe him, he repeated, "No."
He knew what Zero was worried about.
Emotions can affect reason.
As a Japanese public security officer undercover in a criminal organization, this not only concerns his own safety. If he takes a wrong step, it is very likely that the entire undercover line responsible for infiltrating will collapse. Therefore, he must never let his emotions control his judgment.
Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled bitterly.
How could he forget that?
Moreover, that inexplicable throbbing feeling was probably just the suspension bridge effect caused by the other party's shocking words from time to time, which made one feel nervous inside.
...It's just an illusion caused by physiological reaction.
"After shooting down Scotland as planned, appropriately express your depressed mood in front of Gin." Rye taught on the spot in the most understandable way.
"There's no need for exaggerated body movements or expressions; inexperience will only reveal your flaws."
Fushimi Kyoji seemed to understand but not quite.
Depressed... huh?
Then click on the expression wheel and select [Crying].
The player began to cry silently with a blank expression, tilting his head slightly: "How is it?"
"No, it feels like our relationship is so good that it's hard to imagine that they would shoot me." Zhu Fujingguang said tactfully with a little embarrassment.
Moreover, Gin will definitely misunderstand the extent of their relationship.
"Ugh! This is so hard to understand..."
Zhu Fu Jingguang looked at the other person with his arms spread out in front of him, looking deflated, with a hint of smile in his eyes. He was about to say something comforting, but another voice came faster than his.
“No changes are needed.”
After revealing his identity, Rei Furuya, who no longer displays his "Bourbon" personality, spoke in silence, shedding the mask of disguise on his face, revealing a bit of cold seriousness when he wasn't smiling.
"Just act like you have been doing and that will satisfy Gin."
Zhu Fujingguang's gaze unconsciously lingered on Furuya Ling's face.
Maybe Zero hasn't realized it yet, or maybe he just doesn't want to admit it.
Whether it was cooperating with the FBI or semi-forcing Fushimi to stand in the same boat with them, it looked like he had no choice but to cooperate, but he could see it.
Zero... wasn't as resistant as he appeared.
