Chapter 173



Gin still had no expression on his face. When he saw the little sheep Jiang Lai jumping over, he just nodded and said coldly, "Ice wine."

Jiang Lai maintained a playful smile on his face and walked over as usual, but in his heart he was quietly thinking why Gin was here.

Just before going downstairs, I learned from the program I set that Gin was on the second underground floor. At this moment, he actually came to the first underground floor.

What surprised Jiang Lai was not Gin's wandering around, but how he got here so quickly and unnoticed.

Even if you had seen the structural diagram here in advance, it would not be possible to move so quickly.

Jiang Lai narrowed his eyes.

Unless... this wasn't the first time the other person came here. He must have been here several times to be so familiar with the structure here.

After skipping to the side of the silver-haired man, the little sheep Jiang Lai said cheerfully, "What a surprise! I didn't expect to meet Brother Gin here. Did Brother Gin join us temporarily on this mission?"

Gin's deep green eyes were expressionless, and he showed no intention of answering.

Jiang Lai had expected this situation. It was not Gin's setting to answer every question. He was just asking with a bit of a tentative mind. Anyway, he could still make up for it.

Jiang Lai, the little sheep, still had a playful smile on his face, and continued, "If Brother Gin joins midway, his salary should be calculated extra. The overall salary for Lei and I has been determined, so it won't be divided between us, right?"

There was a mixture of caution and nervousness, like a little dragon vigilantly guarding a pile of gold coins with its wings and tail.

This line of questioning fits well with Little Lamb Ice Wine's personality, being natural and fluent without raising suspicion, while also being able to ferret out whether Gin was the one who arranged this.

However, the silver-haired killer raised his lips slightly, but did not take the bait. He just said in a deep and hoarse voice: "I remember Lei's order was for you to wait in the lobby on the first floor. Ice wine."

"Mee?" The little sheep Jiang Lai was stunned.

How did Gin know about the conversation between Akai Shuichi and himself just now! Obviously, the other party had not yet stepped into the Amada Ichiji Entertainment Club at that time!

The cold and calm demeanor of the silver-haired man in front of her was reflected in her pupils, and in a flash, a possibility surfaced.

——The collar on Shuichi Akai’s neck also has an eavesdropping function?

Thoughts quickly flashed through Jiang Lai's mind.

The man was suspicious and conceited. He learned directly from the comics that the collar had explosion and electric shock functions. In addition, he also summarized some functions from forums and books, such as eavesdropping, positioning, command transmission, anesthesia and other possibilities.

Shuichi Akai and I are both cautious people, and we would not have a bug on us without knowing it, unless it is something he cannot take off.

Jiang Lai pondered in his heart.

From this point of view, could it be that the gentleman also gave Gin some of the rights of the collar? It seems that he trusts this top killer of the organization very much.

If I were to make a bold guess... would that gentleman also tell Gin the code of the collar?

Jiang Lai's heart was filled with a flame of anticipation, but he quickly extinguished it and calmed down.

Even if that gentleman told Gin the password, Gin's attitude would be more like "I'll kill you after I finish solving these problems." Maybe he would even deliberately detonate the bomb and strangle FBI agent Shuichi Akai cleanly and neatly.

The leakage of password may cause trouble, so the gentleman will most likely not reveal it.

As for other permissions, perhaps some of them were shared with Gin to better use the tool man Lei.

Jiang Lai made a final conclusion in his mind.

But... Gin's direct disclosure of the eavesdropping information was like a subtle revelation of the matter. Was it intentional? Was it a test or a helping hand?

Jiang Lai's mind was working quickly, and he still put on a sheepish smile as he replied, "It's so boring to stay in the lobby alone. I've never been to this kind of entertainment club before. Of course I have to take a good look around! Of course, the most important thing is that it will be suspicious if I just stand in the lobby on the first floor. I will not attract attention if I move around." The last reason was serious.

The little sheep Jiang Lai smiled and shook his head as he spoke. His eyes caught a glimpse of the cell phone that Gin was holding casually, and his mind froze again.

...Wait, maybe I was just being too complicated. If the two of them had just communicated via email, it would be reasonable for Ley to tell Gin about the arrangement and location of the lamb.

A simple explanation showed him two different possibilities. Jiang Lai was thinking. If Bingjiu was a hidden BOSS camp, then he would pay attention to the collar and extend it to the first guess; if he was not, then he would only think that the two had exchanged emails.

What should I say, is this Gin as expected? Jiang Lai sighed in his heart. Considering Gin's familiarity with this place, maybe he is also one of the atmospheric players.

Gin didn't seem to care about the little sheep's explanation. He put his hands in his pockets and said in a deep voice: "Don't delay the mission assigned to you by the organization, Ice Wine."

"No! Little sheep promises to complete the mission!" Little sheep Jiang Lai giggled and gave an imperfect salute. In his mind, he read and understood the other party's words again - from the hint of the eavesdropping device just now, to the words emphasizing the organization's release of the mission. Was this a reminder for himself not to let that gentleman discover his little tricks?

Gin nodded slightly without saying anything more. He spread his long legs and walked forward, sweeping the slightly cold air.

The little sheep Jiang Lai jumped and followed: "Where are you going, Brother Gin? Should I go with you?" He followed while chattering.

"Get lost." The silver-haired man said without even turning his head and disappeared at the stairs.

The brown-haired boy looked a little depressed on the surface, but in his heart he was setting off fireworks for all things cats and dogs.

——Great! I knew that this would be Gin's reply. It's worth it that I left the impression of harassing the little master with the Ice Wine. Jiang Lai was very satisfied with this.

Now that the other party has left, I can start my secret observation again!

However, Jiang Lai remained vigilant and did not directly reveal his purpose. He first wandered around the casino for a few rounds, and then returned to the position he had just taken a fancy to. Through the half-hidden statue, he stared at Ueda Kariko and the woman beside her with cold eyes.

Ueda Kariko kept saying something, but she carefully covered her mouth with her hand to prevent others from reading her lips and judging what she was saying. The woman next to her, whose face was half covered with a veil, had her blue eyes curved, smiling and revealing tenderness.

That woman...could it be Miyano Akemi? His heart felt as if it was being grasped by a big hand, tense and excited.

It does make sense that Ueda Kariko knew Miyano Akemi, so she would pay extra attention to Miyano Shiho and observe the people around Akemi's sister!

Jiang Lai set his sights on the masked woman.

The burn marks on her body were scary even from a distance. Even if she took off her veil, it would be hard to tell what she looked like with such extensive burns. Only her blue eyes were still as beautiful and gentle as ever.

I don't know how the person who rescued Miyano Akemi discussed with the owner of this entertainment club, and how he kept it secret for so many years. Miyano Akemi may not be able to go out, so she can't go to see her sister in person.

It's possible that the gentleman had recently learned something about Miyano Akemi being here, and was too lazy to search for it. In order to avoid any escapees and accidents, he simply let Lei blow up the place when he left!

Ueda Kariko waved her hand and left for some reason. The masked woman returned to sitting alone at the front desk.

Jiang Lai knew that in order to confirm whether the woman was Miyano Akemi, he first needed a relatively hidden opportunity where he could communicate and observe closely.

There were also security guards wandering around, who were there to maintain order and clear out the rogues. They had bare upper arms and muscular bodies.

...The situation here obviously cannot be forced by pretending to threaten.

Little Sheep Jiang Lai scanned the surroundings, watching the woman with straight flax hair walk out of his sight, and then the woman in the mask. He thought for a moment and decided to take the initiative and not wait any longer.

——Time is very precious.

The little sheep Jiang Lai adjusted his facial expression, walked out from the corner, pretended to look around a few gambling games for a while, and then jumped to the front desk.

"Sister, how do you bet on this?" He smiled shyly and asked curiously, "I want to play too."

The masked woman looked up at the brown-haired boy in front of her. His fair face was full of youth. She paused and said softly, "Are you an adult, little brother? If you are underage, according to the rules here, you can only play in the entertainment facilities on the first floor and cannot come downstairs."

Jiang Lai: It appears, a sentence that every little sheep must go through!!

Of course, this time he also planned to make good use of his young appearance.

The little sheep Jiang Lai answered quickly: "Of course I'm an adult!" But after he finished speaking, he touched his nose with his hand unconsciously, which was a small gesture that indicated he was telling a lie.

The masked woman frowned and stared silently at the little sheep Jiang Lai with her blue eyes, as if she had seen through his little lie long ago.

The little sheep Jiang Lai lowered his head slightly under the gaze, then puffed up his cheeks and said, "...I am an adult now, so I won't ask. I will go there to attend the meeting by myself!" He turned around and wanted to leave.

The masked woman remained gentle: "Sorry, without a number plate, you cannot participate in the gambling game here."

The brown-haired boy paused, turned around and came back. He half-lay down at the front desk, placed his hands on the table, blinked his dark eyes and said in a long tone: "Sister - can you give me a number card? These look fun. Am I really an adult now?"

The masked woman's attitude remained unchanged. Seeing the innocent and sincere expression of the brown-haired boy, she sighed and said with a soft smile, "Come on, little brother. I'll take you to another fun place."

This kind of situation that violates the rules is usually handled violently by the security personnel nearby. However, the masked woman looked at the brown-haired boy in front of her and guessed that he was just a curious student who had strayed into the place by mistake. She couldn't bear to drive him away directly, so she used a softer approach.

The boy's attention was quickly diverted. When he heard about something fun, his expression immediately brightened up, his eyes sparkling, "Really? What fun is that?"

"I'll take you there and you'll know."

The masked woman whispered to the staff standing next to her, saying that she would leave for a while and let her help watch the work. Then she stood up, led the little sheep through the crowd, and walked up the stairs.

Back to the familiar lobby on the first floor, the little sheep Jiang Lai skipped and followed the masked woman, thinking in his heart how to create a covert environment for communication and exploration.

There is an elevator in front of me. The silver elevator door slowly opens to both sides. From a distance, I can see a man with long black hair and dark green wolf eyes, with a cold temperament, walking out.

Jiang Lai: ???

My goodness, this is such a coincidence!

Akai Shuichi lowered his head and seemed to send an email. Jiang Lai felt the vibration of his cell phone in his pocket.

No... He finally got the chance, no one can interfere with his testing work!!

While Akai Shuichi didn't turn his head and the masked woman didn't look towards the elevator, the little sheep Jiang Lai stopped walking immediately, holding her stomach, and said in a soft voice: "...Sister, my stomach suddenly feels so hot and uncomfortable...Should I not drink the drink that the uncle gave me just now?"

He squeezed his eyes, making the corners of his eyes slightly moist, and tried hard to create a gesture of pain to attract the masked woman's attention.

Jiang Lai: I am really a talented actor! I become weak in a second and then I start to act weak again!
