Chapter 55: The Winery [CG: Blooming in the Darkness for a Short Time...
“…”
Amuro Toru's eyes flashed frequently.
The backup phone that was usually used to contact the person who knew his other identity was unconsciously held in his hand.
The information he received was destroyed immediately after he read it.
The content above remained in front of his eyes for a long time.
Although they have become a community of interests bound together in the same boat, it was unexpected that Yan Er also...
He raised his hand and lightly pressed his chest through the fabric. Feeling the documents in his inner pocket, he put his hand down again.
Maybe it's time to reconnect with his former co-stars.
He thought.
Almost at the same time as receiving the text message from Kenji Hagiwara, a code message came from Keimitsu Morifushi that only the two of them knew.
This was also the first time Zhu Fujingguang contacted him after faking his death in Scotland.
In order to prevent Gin from still harboring doubts about the whole thing and causing any hasty contact to affect the three people who were still in the organization, Morofushi Kagemitsu did not take the initiative to contact any of them, including Furuya Rei, after escaping.
Because he trusts Yu Junran's ability, Toru Amuro doesn't worry about not receiving the text message reporting his safety.
After confirming that both parties were in a safe environment, Morofushi Kagemitsu briefly discussed the current situation with him. Amuro Toru learned about the process of his friend changing his appearance and being recognized by players with his new identity.
"I have applied to my superiors for a witness protection program." Zhu Fujingguang on the other end of the phone fell into a long silence after saying this. Neither of them spoke again, and only the faint sound of electricity passed by their ears.
After their last meeting, Zhu Fujingguang tried to contact the player again, but it seemed that the message he sent was identified as a sales promotion text message, and the other party ignored it.
Jianggu Ling:......
This is also why he is responsible for bringing players out under the pretext of exchanging mission information.
Zhu Fujingguang, who was well disguised, dressed up as a bartender and welcomed three guests who were also subtly disguised at the bar opposite him.
That’s right, three of them.
Amuro Toru unconcealedly shot a dagger-like look at the man who was not invited but was sitting calmly on the bar stool.
Why is this guy Lei everywhere?
When the player was served a plate of Taiyaki that didn't quite match the environment, she looked into the bartender's familiar blue eyes under his hat. The bartender blinked at her, and she realized that the person in front of her might be Morobushi Kagemitsu.
"Didn't you say that we should discuss the organization in detail in person?"
Fushimi Kyoji looked around at the two people sitting next to her, not noticing the subtle atmosphere, and continued, "Lei almost missed the mission. What a close call!"
Fortunately, the players stopped him.
Toru Amuro easily analyzed the other person's thoughts and secretly clenched his fists.
This guy...
Do you think that the fact that they covered up Hiro's fake death before means that they will be in solidarity with the FBI and there will be no friction or hidden competition?
Although everyone has the goal of destroying the organization, who wants to be part of the same family as the hateful FBI?
For a moment, Toru Amuro even felt empathy with the characters in film and television dramas who appear as villains and hate their children in reconstituted families, such as stepfathers and stepmothers.
That is...
How nice it would be if there wasn't this annoying burden?
"Is it okay?" Fushimi Kyoji looked around. It was during working hours and there was a closed sign hanging in front of the door. There was no one else around except them.
"They showed up in the same place together, even in Scotland..."
Amuro said with a forced smile, "If you could restrain your occasional bluntness and not suddenly call out one of our real names, I believe no one would doubt our identities."
As for whether this would alert Gin...
"If you want to keep your whereabouts secret, isn't it essential to avoid the organization's eyes and ears?"
Shuichi Akai glanced calmly at Toru Amuro, who had a fake smile on his face.
This sharp and exposed side is different from the vague feeling of "Bourbon", as if being watched coldly by a poisonous snake.
It seems... closer to the arrogance in his own character.
Fushimi Kyoji propped up his face, his eyes fixed on the plate in front of him. He held his fork upside down and poked the cream out of the taiyaki from time to time. "So, so, why did you call them over? Is there something important?"
It's impossible to be like Gin, organizing code members with tasks from time to time, executing traitors in person, so as to increase the unity among members?
He didn't look up at anyone, but he could hear rustling sounds in the silence, accompanied by a rustling sound similar to the sound of paper unfolding.
"..." Toru Amuro and Keimitsu Morofushi looked at each other. Shuichi Akai guessed something from their actions and also put his hand into the side of his clothes.
Three slightly different paper documents were handed to the players.
The time difference between the three people was no different, and Fushimi Kyoji didn't even know who to visit first.
The formats of the documents handed over to the left and the front were similar. On the right, Lei handed over an identity information with detailed life experience. Next to the unfamiliar name was the player's photo.
Hey...this can't be the legend!
Fushimi Kyoji seemed to have some feelings.
"Your future actions will be protected by the authorities. Our shared goal is to destroy the organization. If necessary, you will be required to testify as a tainted witness. We will guarantee your personal safety. You can continue living under your new identity after everything is settled."
Now he is no longer the unpredictable Bourbon in the organization. He lists the benefits that players can enjoy in a serious and meticulous manner, without any impatience or vagueness.
Zhu Fujingguang met the player's gaze and nodded slightly. "In order to protect the safety of witnesses, the witness protection plan will not be entered into the system before the organization is destroyed. It will only exist verbally. Also..."
His eyes fell to the document in his hand.
The FBI agent, who was very familiar with the 'Witness Protection Program', had a prepared fake identity in his hand, which was about twice as thick as the documents in the hands of Toru Amuro and Scotland.
"If you want, you can leave the organization now and live whatever life you want."
Akai Shuichi said it succinctly.
"You are free."
Toru Amuro frowned fiercely and almost sneered subconsciously. He was indeed an agent trained in the so-called freest country, and he could speak so openly about other people's generosity.
Black Label Whisky, who is trusted by Gin in the organization, is obviously more valuable than Fushimi Kyoki who has left the organization and has nothing to do with it.
He didn't believe that Lei was as indifferent as he seemed.
The ridge between Amuro Toru's eyebrows never disappeared, but he didn't say anything to interrupt.
Hiro has been saved. If she really...
[cg·The flower of friendship that blooms briefly in the darkness]
Different from the previous cgs which were either quick or tense background music, a soothing piano piece gradually sounded, accompanied by a relaxing melody, and the cg gradually flashed.
While on the way to carry out the mission, the four people in the car, who seemed to be in harmony but were actually at odds, had different expressions on their faces.
Figures walking side by side, four people with pale faces looking at a plate of unknown objects, and several people sitting in a row on bar stools...
The increasingly close distance between the people in the picture seems to indirectly indicate that their relationship is also getting closer over time.
The slideshow gradually faded, and the last thing that remained was the player's bright smile, holding three witness protection plans and surrounded by three bottles of whiskey.
"*Whiskey Group CG Collection Progress (2/3), Current Route Enters HE Ending [Traveling Against the Path]!"
"*Auto-saving... "
"*You can log in again and load your game progress at any time later!"
"*Do you want to end the [Love Brewery] dungeon?"
"whether]"
"Eh...it turns out to be the witness protection program. I just thought it was..." The player's voice fell off inconspicuously.
Zhu Fujingguang turned his head and asked patiently, "What?"
babble!
Not expecting to be heard, the player mentally checked his fingers in response to the gazes coming over.
If you think that this is about a love line, you don't need to tell them.
Shuichi Akai stared at the player's inexplicably wandering eyes and looked away.
Fushimi Kyoji gathered the heavy document and handed it back to the owner in its original form.
"Then please keep these for me."
The three people reacted differently. Although their expressions showed no emotion, their eyes were filled with unexpected surprise.
"Are you so confident in handing over the witness protection program with your name on it to three people?" There was a smile in Amuro Toru's eyes, holding the document in his hand. To some extent, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was a handle.
If it gets out, she will be dead in Gin's eyes anyway, and her status as a second-generation member will not be preserved.
"Hmm!" the player said heavily.
Things like the witness protection program...
He kept it in his hand because he was afraid that Gin would not be able to find evidence to sink the player into Tokyo Bay.
