Jiang Lai's villain Yan won the approval of Zhu Fu Jingguang.
Jiang Lai: Thank you for the compliment, keep working hard (?)
He felt that in the next few days he could fully hone his ability to use the underworld filter in reverse.
Starting from the second day, the treatment was accompanied by pain that swept the whole body. Jiang Lai knew that this kind of pain caused by the conflict between memory and medicine was very difficult to endure even for people who had received professional training.
Therefore, after force-feeding the medicine to Shuichi Akai, Jiang Lai took off the gag that was holding him back, but did not rush to walk away. Instead, he pried open his mouth and forced a small medical silicone ball gag into it - to prevent Shuichi Akai from biting himself because of excessive pain.
By the way, the stability of the chain and the head of the bed was reinforced a second time, and the blanket flannel inside the handcuffs and leg cuffs was thickened again.
Jiang Lai maintained his evil face throughout the whole process, but he silently gave himself a thumbs up in his heart: I am so considerate.
Therefore, in Akai Shuichi's eyes, this was another form of humiliation. But he still maintained a calm attitude, using his dark green eyes to convey a sharp provocation.
Jiang Lai smiled and brushed his long black hair aside, and replied: "Your eyesight is good. I hope you can still have this energy later."
The small medical silicone ball gag not only prevented the opponent from biting you, but also prevented your mouth from closing. Before long, the saliva that could not be swallowed flowed out from the corners of your mouth.
Morobushi Kagemitsu placed a towel under Akai Shuichi's head, brought a pack of tissues, sat on the bed and wiped Akai Shuichi's face, and said casually, "It's very troublesome to dirty the bedding. This is the behavior of children. Lei, can you control yourself?"
This kind of natural physiological reaction is of course uncontrollable. It is obvious that Morobushi Kagemitsu is also showing his evil face and deliberately saying such words to cover up his original intention of caring for him.
"I'll leave Lai Yi to you. I'm going to work." Jiang Lai said hello after washing his hands.
"No problem, go ahead." Zhu Fu Jingguang smiled, "The drug should take effect soon, and I'll send you some interesting photos."
"Oh, OK." Jiang Lai responded, buttoning up his coat. "See you tonight, Lei Yi. I hope you can hold on for a while and don't pass out too quickly. Of course - I believe in your ability."
After displaying his perfect villain look, Jiang Lai left with satisfaction.
After sending Kurosawa Akira to school, Jiang Lai drove to Teitan High School.
The warm sunlight shines in through the office windows, illuminating the books and green plants piled up in the room, and everything is thriving.
Today's work was still relatively easy. After marking the students' homework, Jiang Lai turned on his mobile phone and saw the message Zhu Fu Jingguang posted in the Loving Family group.
[#景光大貓貓#: The antidote took effect very quickly. He struggled so hard that he almost pulled out the needle of the IV. I tightened the chain again. ]
【#景光大貓貓#: Fortunately, his mouth was stuck, otherwise he would have bitten his tongue now. 】
[#常年走业务的镜鏡#: Is it that serious? I mean, don't make too much noise or the police will come over. ]
Although he understood what the other party meant, Jiang Lai couldn't help but make a wild comment in his heart: You and Jingguang are also police officers.
【#江錦鯉萊#: Actually... the police have already been here. Hagiwara came to my house yesterday. 】
[#Mouse glasses for business trips all year round#: Huh? ? ]
[#Mouse glasses for business trips#: Hagi... won't get involved. 】
【#江錦鯉萊#: Probably not. I assured him that “nothing will happen to me, and no one else will either”, and he didn’t ask any more questions. 】
[#景光大貓貓#: His voice is not loud. He cannot speak after the medical silicone gag is put in, and he is restrained and patient, so the low sound that comes out of his throat only when the pain is too strong. ]
[#江錦鯉萊#: ...I remember the last time he came to my house, I stuffed him with screaming chickens and stuffed dolls to help him de-stress. But I can't do that this time.]
[#景光大貓貓#: The evil face cannot be broken. If you want to help, you can only hide a little. I deliberately put a thick blanket under him so that he can scratch the blanket, which is better than digging his nails into his skin. ]
Using a thicker blanket...that's a good idea.
Fortunately, it will soon be over, Jiang Lai thought. This is not an endless purgatory, but a phoenix nirvana. Although there is pain, there is hope ahead.
He relaxed his body, leaned back in his seat, and sorted out and thought about the current situation in his mind.
The Hidden BOSS camp has fully interacted with other Red Team organizations to demonstrate its identity. Although the interests of the organizations conflict, after many meetings, they finally put aside their disputes and reached a temporary cooperation data sharing and comprehensive general offensive agreement.
Jiang Lai was also secretly promoting the middle faction in the organization, especially after the antidote was successfully developed. He used the programs and lines that Xiao Mianyang Bingjiu secretly laid before his death, and took advantage of the time when the gentleman was in recuperation and could not pay attention to the outside world, and with the help of Gin's release and information, the propaganda fully and covertly reached the people who should see it.
——A subtle shift in camp was taking place in secret, like the slow movement of an ink painting.
The balance of victory also tilted accordingly.
Jiang Lai narrowed his eyes.
The Red Team is getting better prepared as the traitors are being removed. Some people in the organization are also leaning towards the hidden boss. The antidote is developed to cure and prevent the brainwashing led by that gentleman. We also need to get the code for Akai Shuichi's collar and the medicine that can help Kurosawa Akizawa escape from the frozen age and grow up smoothly.
It seems that the chances of winning this final battle have already greatly leaned towards my side. But... I always feel that the gentleman may have some hidden cards.
Jiang Lai's mind was filled with thoughts.
Apart from the absolutely loyal people within the organization and the technology that gentleman possesses, what other possible trump cards does he have that are important and unknown to the Red Team?
Several possibilities flashed through his mind, but he rejected them one by one. Jiang Lai scratched his head and decided to let the topic go for now since he couldn't remember.
Maybe when the information is more complete, it will be revealed.
The last two days were neither long nor short, but the treatment was definitely painful.
The antidote is like a sharp sword, cutting through the shackles cast by the gentleman's brainwashing, but it also hurts the person's spirit and body.
The pain was like tiny needles, piercing deep into every inch of skin, pulsating with the rise and fall of breathing, and even flowing in the blood. The sharp blades cut through every intact skin in the body.
Even Shuichi Akai couldn't hold on in such intense and prolonged pain. The sweat secreted from his body wet the T-shirt on his body. His sharp canine teeth bit the silicone in his mouth tightly, and he couldn't care less about the saliva overflowing.
His body was shaking uncontrollably, and Akai Shuichi wanted to curl up or even roll over, but the iron chain still bound him tightly. He clutched the blanket under him tightly, and used the last of his willpower to suppress the sound in his throat.
Chaotic fragments of memory flashed through his mind, but before he could sort them out and focus on them, another wave of pain came.
Shuichi Akai's consciousness was a little fuzzy. He had difficulty sensing time and had no strength left.
The people around him patiently wiped his face with tissues over and over again, and fed him medicine after a while. The door opened and closed, people came in and out, and it seemed like dark and light, but Akai Shuichi's perception was already difficult to judge at this time, and he only had a vague sense of the outside world.
Outside the door.
"This is the last time I'll give you medicine." Jiang Lai glanced at the instructions on his phone. "Fortunately, the pain only lasted for two days. If it had continued like this, I might have died from the pain..."
The small medical silicone ball mouth has been replaced two or three times, and the straps have been half-broken by Akai's sharp teeth.
Jiang Lai then sighed: "However, this is in line with the organization's style. Even if you want to break free from control, you will have to endure pain that ordinary people cannot endure."
"This is his own choice." Furuya Rei's expression was much calmer. He had just arrived and had not taken off his uniform jacket. He just folded his arms and leaned against the wall. "Since he chose to make this decision, he should have anticipated the consequences."
"It's not a big problem. After the last dose of medicine, the pain will almost end." The silver-haired boy added, sitting on a stool, swinging his legs. "What we should be concerned about is whether he can really get his memory back."
"Huh?" Jiang Lai was stunned. "Haven't I already completed the injections and medications according to the instructions?"
"That being said... Akai was brainwashed twice." Kurosawa Akira said, "The data research on the antidote is based on a single brainwashing. For someone like Akai Shuichi, repeated brainwashing and breaking free is a huge impact on the brain."
Jiang Lai paused: "Is there a possibility of memory confusion or nerve damage?"
If the person who was found after all the hard work was a stupid FBI ace, this matter would simply be—
Everyone fell silent and the room was very quiet.
The first thing that broke the silence was the sound of the cell phone ringing.
"Ah, it's time." Kurosawa Aki jumped off the bench, "Let's go inside and take a look at the situation."
With an uneasy and complicated mood, Jiang Lai straightened his expression and then gently opened the door.
The curtains of the guest room were drawn, and the room was still dim. Morofushi Keimitsu was still sitting by the bed, taking care of Akai Shuichi. He threw the paper ball into the trash can, and then turned around and asked, "You guys came in?"
"How are you now?" Jiang Lai took two or three steps over and looked at Akai Shuichi who was lying on the bed. The other person had his eyes closed, and only the slightly rising and falling chest showed that he was still alive.
"I don't know if he fainted from the pain." Morobushi Kagemitsu took out the medical silicone gag from Akai Shuichi's mouth. To be on the safe side, even after the treatment was over and Akai was very weak, Morobushi Kagemitsu did not uncuff him, but only loosened the chain.
"Hey, FBI, are you still awake?" Furuya Rei's tone was not very good. He stood in front of the bed and looked down at the long-haired man. "You can't even handle this?"
"Maybe he needs some water." Jiang Lai said. He half-lifted Akai Hide, let him lean against the head of the bed, and then picked up the cup of water on the bedside table and put it to his lips.
Akai Shuichi opened his mouth slightly and drank some cool water. His eyelashes fluttered, and his eyes slowly opened, his whole expression was a bit dazed.
"Are you okay, Akai?" Jiang Lai put down his water cup and waved his hand in front of him, "Hello? Are you okay?"
"..." Akai Shuichi's gaze moved to his face, still without saying a word, maintaining a stiff posture.
"You're not really stupid, are you—" Kurosawa Akira tilted his head, his voice childish, "That's too bad. If that gentleman knew about Akai's current state, he might find out the clues here."
Furiya Rei pursed his lips, took a big step forward, and grabbed Akai Shuichi by the collar: "Wake up, FBI! You are like this at this time... are you kidding me!?" The chain rustled with such a big movement.
If this is the outcome... all the efforts and sacrifices are nothing! Amuro gritted his teeth, and the brown-haired boy's playful smile, cute quirks and longing eyes inevitably emerged in his mind, shaking so clearly in his memory.
[I want to go to school with Hongshu. 】
Furiya Rei took a deep breath, lowered his head, and said in a low, unclear voice: "Thank you for Hiro's fake death... FBI."
The next second, a loud muffled sound of hammering was heard in the air, and Furiya Rei punched Akai Shuichi hard on the right cheek!
"And this time, I hit him for Watanabe!"
The blond man's eyes were burning with fierce anger: "Akai Shuichi, if you lose control at this moment and really can't wake up... can you be worthy of those people who died! - Before your condition is exposed to the organization, I will definitely kill you...!"
He released his hand that was grabbing Akai Shuichi's collar, threw him onto the bed, then turned around and slammed the door and left with a huge movement.
Morofushi Kagemitsu quickened his pace and followed, leaving only Jiang Lai and Kurosawa Akira in the room.
"Ah, what should we do?" Kurosawa Akira said, holding his chin, "Why not let Mr. Amuro kill Akai?"
"This probably won't work... I'll think of another way to see if I can get Akai back to normal." Jiang Lai shook his head, exhaled, and reached out to support Akai Shuichi who was half leaning against the head of the bed.
However, the other party raised his head before him.
The right half of his cheek was slightly red and swollen, his eyes were clear and calm: "...I'm fine." His voice was still a little hoarse.
Jiang Lai widened his eyes slightly, and then asked with a little surprise: "Are you awake?"
"My memory was too chaotic for a moment." Akai Shuichi sat up straight, "I have sorted it out now."
"We were so scared... We thought you were stupid." Jiang Lai patted his chest. To confirm, he checked a few FBI questions with Akai Shuichi before he believed that the other party had really recovered his memory.
Then, he said to Kurosawa Akira, "Xiao Zhao, go and tell Amuro and the others, and get the key back."
"Okay~"
The silver-haired boy opened the door and left, leaving only Jiang Lai and Akai Shuichi in the room.
Everything was very quiet in the dim house. Akai Shuichi sat quietly for a moment, then tilted his head and said, "...Is Bingjiu one of yours?"
"Hmm?" Jiang Lai didn't expect the other party to ask this suddenly, but he still responded, "Yes." He nodded, "The boy is from our side."
There was another silence.
Akai Shuichi asked, "Where is my cell phone?"
"Here." Jiang Lai opened the bedside cabinet and threw the phone to him, "We didn't move."
Shuichi Akai turned on his cell phone. He seemed to be looking for something on it. The bright screen was reflected in his calm green eyes.
Soon, his movements stopped. After a few seconds, he put down his phone.
"What are you looking for?" Jiang Lai asked in a curious voice, but he had a vague answer in his mind.
——The last photo of the little sheep? He knew that Lei had deleted it completely at that time, and it was absolutely impossible for him to find it back from his phone.
"..." Akai Shuichi lowered his eyes, suppressing all possible emotions, "Nothing." He said calmly.
Jiang Lai didn't know what Akai Shuichi was thinking, because he was always the kind of person who didn't reveal himself, silently swallowing everything and bearing everything.
Death and sorrow are piled up like monuments, one by one on his back. But Shuichi Akai will not be crushed by these. He will only silently carry the hopes of those who have passed away, and turn into a silver bullet to break the darkness and usher in the dawn.
So Jiang Lai just stretched out his hand, raised his moist warm brown eyes, and said softly: "——Welcome back, Agent Akai."
