Chapter 183



While everyone was having dinner together, Jiang Lai recounted everything that happened on the cruise ship, and finally added: "How about I use Xiao Mianyang's account to send a message to Amuro Toru? Or Jingguang, you can talk to Furuya and just say that I'm still alive, and don't reveal that it's my pseudonym."

In fact, Morofushi Kagemitsu and Matsuda Jinpei could roughly guess the mental shock their friends would suffer after the death of Watanabe Weilai.

Despite this, Morobushi Jingguang remained calm. He shook his head slightly and replied, "The account could be stolen. Even if I tell him now, Zero might not believe it."

"Why?"

"The person you value died in front of you, but someone else told you that he was not dead. For people like us, our first reaction was not surprise, but... caution." Morobushi Kagemitsu put down his cutlery and said, "He saw Watanabe Weilai being shot by a sniper with his own eyes."

"Ah, that's right." Matsuda Jinpei nodded in agreement. "An undercover agent would instinctively think this is a trap. In addition to disbelief, he would probably also feel angry - the enemy would actually toy with and use his dear dead friend in this way, squeezing out the last bit of his value."

Jiang Lai paused and held his chin in his hand: "Yeah, it seems to be the case."

If the organization knew about the good relationship between ice wine and bourbon, they would definitely do such a wicked thing as whipping a corpse to test it!

If it hadn't fallen into the sea, who knows what the body would have been used for.

In the current situation where the black and red sides are entangled and the organization suspects Bourbon, even if Morofushi Kagemitsu tells him, Furuya Rei will think that a web of confusion has been woven in front of Kokenran.

"Besides, if the news that Little Lamb Ice Wine is still alive is accidentally leaked to the organization, the organization will start to suspect Akai Shuichi." Kurosawa Akira suddenly spoke up and reminded, "If there is another escape from brainwashing, that gentleman will definitely kill the FBI ace directly."

"The reason is that now is not the right time." Morobushi Jingguang raised his blue-gray eyes and said in a gentle voice, "Wait until everything is over, then tell Zero that Watanabe Weilai is still alive, or let the little sheep vest appear again. This is more credible and safer."

"I'm sorry to Zero... for keeping this a secret for so long. But I'm afraid I have to do this."

Jiang Lai pondered for a few seconds, nodded and said, "Let's talk about it after everything is over." He smiled, "Maybe we don't have to keep it secret for too long."

Everything is going well step by step, Jiang Lai thought. The final battle date is approaching, and we won't have to wait much longer.

After reaching a consensus, several people chatted about other things, and the atmosphere was friendly and warm. Morobushi Jingguang's cooking skills are very good. Even if he made a table full of dishes, they were eaten up in the end.

Jiang Lai, who had eaten his fill, had a satisfied look on his face. He caught a glimpse of Zhu Fu Jingguang bringing out a small pot from the kitchen. He subconsciously asked, "What is this? Porridge?"

Such a small pot doesn't seem to be enough for four people to share.

Zhu Fu Jingguang seemed to be able to guess what Jiang Lai was thinking. He put the small pot on the heat-insulating mat on the table and said with a smile, "This is exclusively for you."

My exclusive? Jiang Lai Siwei, who had just finished his meal, was inevitably a little slow. It took him a few seconds to react.

"Specially made thick ginger soup!" His eyes widened.

"That's right." Zhu Fu Jingguang replied with a smile. He opened the lid of the small pot and slowly scooped out a bowl with a spoon, "Drink slowly, this small pot is all yours."

Jiang Lai: “!!” (Cosmic Cat’s Thoughts Sublime.jpg)

"Well...thank you, Jingguang, but I'm already very full." Jiang Lai straightened his expression and said in an especially sincere tone, "How about we not drink the ginger soup?"

"You can take a rest first and drink it later." Zhu Fu Jingguang turned his head and said considerately, "When are you going to drink it? Tell me in advance and I'll heat it up for you."

Jiang Lai: ...No matter what, you can't escape the fate of drinking ginger soup.

Matsuda Jinpei propped his head up with one hand, sitting aside and looking like he was enjoying the show. He said lazily, "Come on, Jiang Lai. You finished it in one breath."

Kurosawa Akira blinked and put his snack box on the table: "Don't be afraid, Brother Jiang Lai, I still have a lot of desserts here."

"This is my improved version. I tried to make it taste better. It should be more accommodating to you than the previous one." Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled and said, "Would you like to give it a try?"

"Hurry up and drink, Jiang Lai. It's better than getting sick. Otherwise..." Song Tian Zhenping paused for a few seconds, as if he had made up his mind, and gritted his teeth and said, "I'll accompany you. I'll also make a glass of green pepper juice."

Jiang Lai immediately became alert: "No, don't touch the green peppers, Matsuda."

Anyone who dares to touch green peppers is a black pine. Jiang Lai said that if this happens, he will shake Matsuda violently and ask him if he still remembers that he is a policeman!

Matsuda Jinpei (unsure): “???”

Encouraged by his relatives and friends (?), Jiang Lai pursed his lips, bravely picked up the small bowl in front of him, and said proudly: "Okay, I'll go for it!"

——People must always overcome their dietary taboos. Good medicine tastes bitter but is good for the disease!

Ten minutes later.

"Wuwuwu Jingguang, I really can't drink even a drop... I can't do it anymore..." Jiang Lai half lowered his head and raised his hands weakly, trembling as if he was seriously ill, "Let me go, I can't drink anymore, I want to go to the children's table..."

Kurosawa Akira blinked, seemingly not quite understanding the joke.

"Drinking ginger soup will also turn you into this, so ginger can trigger some kind of weakness buff on you?" Matsuda Jinpei complained while standing next to Jiang Lai. Seeing Jiang Lai's pale face, he patted his back caringly, "Are you okay?"

Jiang Lai fell on the table, which scared Matsuda Jinpei: "I didn't use any force at all, Jiang Lai, you are trying to scam me!"

Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled helplessly: "If you don't want to drink, then don't drink. It's really difficult for you to break your dietary restrictions." He put away the pot and said, "Keep warm and exercise regularly, and you shouldn't catch a cold or fever."

"Yeah." Jiang Lai nodded and sat up straight, revealing his moist warm brown eyes, "Sorry, I didn't finish it."

"It's okay." Zhu Fu Jingguang shook his head and then smiled, "Go to bed early and have a good sleep. You are also very tired today."

"Okay." Jiang Lai seemed to still be in the [Jiang Tang Weakness Buff]. He stood up shakily and walked towards his room.

Matsuda Jinpei was helping to clear the table. He looked at Jiang Lai's back and was worried that he might fall down, so he simply followed him.

The room was structured as a large hall and dining room, with a corridor on the right and several bedrooms. Jiang Lai's steps became faster and faster, and he was already full of energy when he arrived at his room. He happily opened the door, not even looking weak as before!

Matsuda Jinpei: "...?"

Then the door was opened again, and Jiang Lai stepped out again. He caught a glimpse of Matsuda Jinpei standing in the corridor, and was slightly surprised. Then he blinked and whispered, "Help me get the phone on the dining table, Matsuda." Then he added, "Don't tell Jingguang."

——After all, I just promised the boy’s mother to go to bed early tonight!

Matsuda Jinpei was silent for a moment: "Your acting skills are getting better and better, Jiang Lai."

Jiang Lai: "Uh, thank you?" Then he paused and quickly shook his head, "No, that's not acting, I really have Jiang Tang's weakness buff!"

Matsuda Jinpei: Do you think I believe it?

Jiang Lai: Sincere big eyes.jpg

These two days were holidays, so there was no need to go to Teitan High School to work. After resting at home, Jiang Lai set off to visit Komiyayama Yuu in the hospital the next morning.

The Beihua Central Hospital is a complex place, with both the Summers' power and the organization's power. Generally speaking, it is the organization's territory.

But just in case, Yu Komiyayama was hospitalized in another hospital.

Jiang Lai included this hospital in the list and passed the news to Zhu Fu Jingguang, asking the public security department to investigate to see if this hospital might be the organization's asset.

The public security had secretly talked to Hagihara Kenji before, so Hagihara Kenji actually knew Komiyama Yuu's identity, but on the surface they were still good seniors and juniors. But behind the usual smile, Hagihara Kenji had already erected a cautious wall.

This time when Komiyama Yuu was hospitalized, Hagihara Kenji also visited him, and Jiang Lai also learned the location of the hospital and ward from him. Hagihara Kenji added at the end: "If you need any help, please feel free to contact me, Jiang Lai~"

For the sake of confidentiality, he certainly could not tell Jiang Lai the identity of Yu Komiyayama, but he still gave him a subtle reminder.

Jiang-who actually knows everything-replied with a smile: "Okay, Hagiwara."

The air in the hospital was filled with a faint smell of disinfectant. Jiang Lai walked all the way up to the third floor and found the ward where Yu Komiyayama was based on the house number.

This is a single room, and Komiyayama Yuu is the only one in the room. Jiang Lai entered the room holding flowers, and his eyes paused slightly when he saw the left eye of the young man with light beige hair - there was a gauze bandage wrapped around it, as if he had just had surgery.

"Rai-kun!" Yu Komiyayama seemed very surprised to see Jiang Lai.

"Xiaomiya-san," Jiang Lai walked over quickly, placed the flowers on the bedside table, and asked with a worried look on his face, "Are you okay? What happened?"

Komiyayama subconsciously raised his hand to touch his left eye, then stopped moving. He said in a low voice, "There was an accident."

Did Samuste take action? Jiang Lai thought silently in his heart. The two of them really started fighting, and caused bloody injuries to each other.

"Your eyes..." Jiang Lai's gaze moved to the other person's covered left eye. He paused for a few seconds, and finally said nothing. He just reached out and patted the other person's shoulder, giving silent comfort.

Komiyayama Yuu leaned towards Jiang Lai and continued in a low voice: "I will consider getting an artificial eye. Otherwise, as a police officer on duty, I am afraid of scaring others." He paused, then lowered his eyes and smiled, "Ah... maybe I will resign after working for a while. In this situation, someone else with good health is definitely more suitable than me..."

"Komiyayama." Jiang Lai interrupted the other person's mumbling and held his hand. "You are a very good person." His warm brown eyes were filled with a warm light. "You will always be in my heart."

The young man with light beige hair was slightly startled.

Jiang Lai didn't say a lot of big truths or consoling nonsense. He knew that these were not the words that Pinot Noir wanted to hear after he showed weakness to him.

Therefore, he just looked at Yu Komiyama with a gentle gaze and slowly said the response that the other party hoped to hear: "- No matter what happens, I will stay with you to the end." His voice was clear and bright.

This statement is very sincere, and there is not a single falsehood in it. In fact, it is indeed the truth.

Jiang Lai would of course accompany him to the end. But the meaning of "the end" here refers to the "final ending".

On the surface, Yuu Komiyayama appears to be cheerful, considerate and sociable, but in reality he is an ardent supporter of the organization's experiments. Countless people have died directly or indirectly at his hands.

Facing the new target Jiang Lai, Xiao Miyayama Yu has never stopped giving Jiang Lai drugs in various places, and hypnotizing Jiang Lai in real time when Jiang Lai is overwhelmed, guiding Jiang Lai to abandon his own personality and only trust him absolutely. Those targeted kindness and care are honey to lure Jiang Lai into the trap and lose his defense.

If I hadn't been on guard all the time and if Xiao Zhao hadn't been there, I would have probably become a puppet created by the other party.

Jiang Lai knew it very well in his heart, and he also knew that the superficial friendship between the two was all fake. He was always clear-headed, acting and counter-strategizing clearly.

This is a trap woven by the other party, but only the other party will fall into it.

Jiang Lai will certainly accompany Komiyayama to the end, and he will witness the ending that Pinot Noir deserves.
