Jiang Lai stared at the phone, wanting to see through the object, across the distance, and see what was happening on the other side. However, this was naturally impossible.
I don't know how Akai Shuichi is doing...
He pursed his lips, took out the thing that Shuichi Akai gave him, and waited to study it carefully after returning home.
Kurosawa Akira beside him seemed to sense some of Jiang Lai's emotions and raised his gray-green eyes: "What's wrong, Brother Jiang Lai?"
Jiang Lai didn't say anything, but glanced at the people not far away.
Kurosawa Akira understood immediately: "Let's talk about it when we get home."
This case, which happened at the flower show, was solved with the help of a famous detective. As always, the murderer first made excuses, then cried, and was finally taken away by the police.
After this happened, naturally, they couldn't watch the flower show. Samuster politely said "I'm sorry for surprising everyone" and "I'll make it up to you later", but Komiyama Yuaki mocked him secretly, and then the two began to compete secretly again.
Jiang Lai's mind was no longer here. He lazily listened to the two perverts fighting for a while, then looked down at his watch and said, "Oh, it's getting late. Everyone must be hungry, shall we go home for dinner?"
After saying goodbye to Mori, Ueda Kariko and others, Komiyama Yuu came over and said, "Rai-kun, let me treat you to lunch! I wanted to have a good time with you, but I didn't expect something like this to happen at the flower show..."
Samuster adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses and said, "I should be the one to pay for this meal. Fortunately, I know a good restaurant nearby that would be perfect."
Jiang Lai didn't want to compete with these two today. His expression changed and he exclaimed in surprise, "Oh! Damn! The water at home seemed to be still boiling before I left this morning!" He pushed Komiyayama Yuu and said, "I have to go home and take a look. You two can eat first. It's a good opportunity for you to get to know each other. I'm leaving first!"
Then he moved at lightning speed and pulled Kurosawa Akira away, leaving only the two perverts at the scene.
No matter what kind of communication the two perverts would have after they left, Jiang Lai took Kurosawa Akira all the way back home, closed the door, sat at the desk, and formally got into a posture for conversation.
Kurosawa Akira's expression also gathered: "What's wrong?"
"I received a reply from Shuichi Akai." Jiang Lai let out a breath, showed the content of the email to Kurosawa Akira, and expressed his inner guess just now.
The silver-haired boy was silent for two seconds, then nodded and said, "If there really is a traitor in the FBI who has contact with this part, then indeed, Akai Shuichi's affair will definitely be exposed. The result will naturally be more disastrous than good."
Jiang Lai's fingers on the table moved slightly, and his voice was a little hoarse: "Akagi, he..."
They won't die before dawn! It would be too cruel for the new series to be like this!!
"But he probably won't die." Kurosawa Akira raised his gray-green eyes. "If he doesn't choose to commit suicide, that gentleman won't kill him, but will brainwash him again."
Jiang Lai was surprised for a second, then answered subconsciously, "But Akai escaped once, so would that gentleman do the same thing again? Isn't he afraid that Akai will play him again?"
"The organization's brainwashing technology must have made some new breakthroughs compared to the last time. Just like our research on the antidote has been ongoing, they are also catching up." Kurosawa Akira said in a flat voice, "That gentleman is a very proud and persistent person. He will not give up because of a failure. He will learn from the lesson and will tighten the supervision of Lei and brainwash him regularly in the future."
"Akai Shuichi is the trump card of the FBI, a well-honed top-level sword. Although his sharp murderous aura is directed at the core of the organization, that gentleman will not give up turning it into a powerful weapon in his own hands. Control is more meaningful than direct killing."
Kurosawa Akira's voice was calm.
"Breaking claws and shattering spines is certainly neat and tidy, but making the wolf king a loyal guard dog and the wild horse a docile mount is more fulfilling, right?"
Jiang Lai: “Um…”
His expression froze for a few seconds, and then he slowly whispered, "But, when a wolf king becomes a guard dog, he is no longer a wolf king. When a wild horse is tamed, it loses its once most striking wildness."
"That gentleman just wanted an obedient tool." Kurosawa Akira chuckled, "Unique personalities are something that must be eliminated... This is why so many people in the organization are opposed to this experiment."
——No one wants to have the traces of thoughts and the meaning of existence erased.
"So now, we have to find clues to the antidote data of the Miyano family as soon as possible and develop a method to crack the brainwashing of the organization." Jiang Lai's expression became serious, "Then get Akai Shuichi out."
Unexpectedly, when the finals were approaching, the undercover spy sent by that gentleman actually brought Shuichi Akai back to the organization's camp!
"Actually..." Kurosawa Akira paused, "The situation isn't that bad. Akai Shuichi might have done it on purpose."
"Huh?" Jiang Lai was stunned, "Intentionally...?"
"Akai Shuichi often partners with Gin in the organization. He probably knows a little bit about Gin's attitude towards him." Kurosawa Akira raised his gray-green eyes and said.
Gin's attitude is to maintain the overall balance of the scale and let himself enjoy the free and happy world woven by the shadows. He does not belong to any fixed camp, but is a unique and loyal person.
Jiang Lai thought about it.
Shuichi Akai was brainwashed again. Most members of the organization would not know about it, but Gin, as a core member, would know about it.
In this case, Shuichi Akai was forcibly taken away for brainwashing by that gentleman. On the one hand, it shows that the power of the hidden BOSS has weakened again. On the other hand, it also silently declares that the gentleman's brainwashing technology has been improved again, and those who are brainwashed will become tools without self.
"Akai Shuichi knew that there was a spy infiltrating the FBI, but he did not choose to leave the organization. Instead, he was captured and brainwashed again in order to push Gin's position towards us?" Jiang Lai said hesitantly.
"That's probably the case. Because it may not be too late to escape temporarily. Rather than a desperate struggle or a life-threatening escape, it's better to go with the flow and set up a trap." Kurosawa Akira lowered his eyes. "After all, he used to be an FBI agent. No matter what, that gentleman would not let him get in touch with too many secrets. But Gin is different. He must know more."
"So, the situation at this moment is suitable for a temporary... change of camps." Kurosawa Akira's voice was childish, yet calm and powerful.
Although it is essentially a dangerous gamble, Shuichi Akai is not afraid to take a chance, even if the stakes are his own.
——My goodness, are you going to get a black and red piano?
Jiang Lai didn't know what expression to put on. He picked up the water cup on the table and took a sip. After calming down, he said, "This email..."
"He probably guessed that the sender was someone from Hidden Boss's side. Because of the mole issue on the FBI side, it's safest to send this to you right now." Kurosawa Akira said, "Also, this weird gesture can just show you that there's something wrong on his side, so that you won't be fooled by him after he's brainwashed you."
Jiang Lai wanted to ask if the camp of Little Lamb Ice Wine and Kurosawa Akira would be exposed, but then he thought that Akai Shuichi had been brainwashed before and did not betray other FBI undercovers. In this case, perhaps brainwashing would also hide things related to his former camp, leaving only the one of obeying the organization's orders.
It is precisely because of this that Shuichi Akai took the risk and chose such a dangerous but valuable gamble.
I thought the other party had made a mistake, but I didn't expect that he had a gambler's mentality and jumped into the organization's trap to gain more possibilities for the future.
Jiang Lai crossed his hands, was silent for a moment, and said: "He trusts the hidden BOSS so much? He is not afraid that we will lose. If we lose..."
"Perhaps he sensed a glimmer of hope for victory." Kurosawa Akira looked at Jiang Lai seriously and said softly. He raised his lips again and said in a casual voice, "Besides, since it is a gamble, when placing the bet, you are already prepared to face everything. Moreover, the situation is critical and there is no time to think more."
Perhaps Shuichi Akai, who is in the organization, has come into contact with the original content of the organization and the true nature of the hidden boss camp. Jiang Lai thought. The other party knows that this is no longer a simple fight between two factions within the organization.
"Gin... should be able to help us a little, but not too much." The silver-haired boy lowered his head slightly, his long hair fluttering in the wind through the window. He said calmly, "--Don't expect too much from him."
Jiang Lai exhaled, his warm brown eyes calm: "I understand."
He knows that success cannot be achieved by waiting for help, but by participating, gaining, creating and changing things personally.
——The road to victory always requires one to open up one's own path, not the concessions of others.
Jiang Lai's expression gradually became firm.
The most important thing at the moment is the Miyano family, Miyano Akemi, and the antidote data.
A few days ago, he secretly contacted Curacao using the hidden BOSS mailbox and asked about the news of Akemi Miyano, but Curacao's answer was: She was just a link in the response at the beginning, and she knew nothing about the rest until Akemi Miyano was rescued.
What remains is the operation of other members of the previous hidden BOSS camp, but now they have lost contact and it is unclear who they are.
Jiang Lai put down his water glass and said, "I will look through the address and wine names in the researcher's diary again, study the last message sent by Akai, and combine it with the information collected by Little Lamb Ice Wine on the black market. I will prepare to go out in the next few days."
He believed that Miyano Akemi must still be alive, and that there must be information about her hidden in these data! Even if he couldn't find Miyano Akemi, it would be good to find some evidence of the original research institute of the organization. Jiang Lai thought.
The key is to decipher the garbled code at the back of the researcher's diary. It is impossible to write down meaningless addresses and wine names at random.
Jiang Lai felt the vibration of his phone, looked down, and saw an extra message in Bingjiu's mailbox.
It is a new task, which will be completed in two weeks, so the ice wine will be prepared in advance.
My partner is... Lei.
Jiang Lai: “?!”
Jiang Lai was shocked: "Two weeks later, this should be just a short time after the brainwashing, and they are released without any observation?"
"Hmm..." The silver-haired boy tilted his head, "It's just a test after brainwashing. In fact, the period right after brainwashing is the safest and most stable period for that gentleman. He is particularly confident in the results of his experiment."
"The mission was released in such a short time. I guess it was also for the purpose of testing the Ice Wine faction's stance. Besides that, maybe the mission information was leaked to other parties on purpose."
Because most of the organization members didn't know that Lei had been brainwashed again, Bingjiu naturally didn't know either, let alone outsiders. No one would have expected such a change to happen in such a short time.
Jiang Lai suddenly realized something. Was he releasing Hei Chi to fish on purpose?
...I'm going to see Hei Chi, whom I've never seen before, so soon.
