That gentleman once again distributed the power in an orderly and temporary manner. Among them, Kurosawa Akira, who had always been trained by the boss, was appointed as the temporary general manager. Of course, the power was not solely in the hands of Kurosawa Akira. Rum still had some power in his hands, and each experiment was independent of the management system.

In the office of the organization's base, Kurosawa Akira did not show any extra expression and remained expressionless and cold. After that gentleman left, he went straight into processing documents.

Jiang Lai also stood quietly aside. Kurosawa Akira did not ask him to kneel, but only asked him to stand on the side and hand over the items.

There was a small special stun gun on the side of the table. At the beginning, the gentleman would use a low-speed electric shock while asking Jiang Lai questions. After the pain, he observed Jiang Lai's expression, movements and responses, which was a kind of test of the effectiveness of the brainwashing.

At that time, Jiang Lai, even though he was being electrocuted, still looked at the gentleman with admiration and respect, and tried his best to maintain a steady voice to answer the gentleman's questions. After several tests, the gentleman was satisfied and no longer adopted this method.

However, before leaving this time, the gentleman took out the object again and handed it to Kurosawa Akira.

The silver-haired boy took it calmly, but did not use it. He just quietly placed it aside.

After a while, Kurosawa Akira took it to the other end of the table - it seemed that he took it away because it would interfere with the review of documents, but in fact he didn't want Jiang Lai to see it.

Jiang Lai didn't have any special reaction. He was like a perfect machine, delivering and moving the desktop materials according to Kurosawa Akira's rhythm.

Everything was in order, and Kurosawa Akira and Jiang Lai maintained a distant and indifferent attitude.

Only after the paperwork was processed and the time was almost up did Kurosawa Akira jump off the chair and said calmly, "Let's go."

The black-haired young man lowered his head, still maintaining a respectful attitude towards the boss, and said, "Okay, young sir."

Hearing this address, Kurosawa Akira paused for a moment, then continued walking forward as usual. Jiang Lai followed closely behind him.

The organization naturally had spare vehicles and drivers, but Kurosawa Akira simply asked the person in charge to pick a car and then let Jiang Lai drive it: "Your car has been inspected recently, so drive this one. If any colleagues ask, just tell others that it is a rental car. The procedures have been completed."

"Okay." Jiang Lai nodded, "I won't be exposed."

He started the car, tilted his head slightly, and looked at Kurosawa Akira in the back seat: "Where are we going, young master?"

Jiang Lai actually knew where the destination was, but he still asked.

"Let's go home." Kurosawa Akira raised his gray-green eyes and looked at Jiang Lai, "Let's go home."

The moonlight was dim, and street lights illuminated a small area of ​​the ground. Looking from afar, the apartment buildings were lit up with warm lights. It was dinner time, and the lights of thousands of homes added a bit of warmth to the night.

The voice-activated lights downstairs had recently broken down and had not been repaired yet. Jiang Lai naturally extended his hand: "Let me lead you along. Don't fall, Xiao Zhao."

He spoke softly, changing the name he used.

"..." The silver-haired boy raised his head and looked at the other party through the dim night. After pausing for a few seconds, he stretched out his little hand and steadily grasped Jiang Lai, "Okay, Brother Jiang Lai."

The atmosphere between the two was different from that in the organization's base. Under the moonlight, it was a little softer and warmer. The two did not say much, but held hands tacitly and walked up the stairs one step at a time as usual.

Morofushi Jingguang had already prepared dinner at home. When he saw Jiang Lai and Kurosawa Akira coming back, he looked up and said with a smile, "Are you back? Just in time. The food is just ready and the porridge is almost done now."

He didn't ask any more questions and stood up to go to the kitchen. However, Jiang Lai, who had changed into slippers, walked in first and stood by the pot of porridge, looking: "There won't be any more chopped ginger in the porridge tonight, right?"

"Tonight it's red date porridge. Sweet porridge." Zhu Fu Jingguang responded gently and walked to Jiang Lai.

"Sweet porridge is great. Thank you for your hard work." Jiang Lai turned his head, his warm brown eyes looked warm under the light, "I'll cook tomorrow morning."

Kurosawa Akira also ran into the kitchen and looked up: "I want to eat the tomato egg noodles made by Brother Jiang Lai. I haven't eaten it for a long time--"

Zhu Fu Jingguang was slightly startled when he heard this, then he smiled and said, "Ah, indeed, I haven't eaten it for a long time."

As he scooped the warm porridge into the bowl, the man with blue-gray raised eyes added: "...Welcome home, Jiang Lai."

"Well," Jiang Lai took the bowl of sweet porridge, "I'm back."

It is very dangerous to reveal the truth before confirming that it is truly safe. Jiang Lai has recalled some of his memories about Kurosawa Akihiro, Morobushi Kagemitsu, and Matsuda Jinpei. Although some details are still vague, he knows in his heart that they are reliable family members.

When the organization, Jiang Lai and Kurosawa Akira met again, his warm brown eyes looked at Xiao Zhao, and his smart eyes revealed many emotions in an instant.

Kurosawa Akira felt it, but tacitly said nothing. After the gentleman left, the two still maintained a distant yet clear superior-subordinate relationship, but in the exchange of information, they showed a unique tacit understanding and small habits.

However, considering that they were still in the organization, they did not speak to each other. It was not until they drove back downstairs and Jiang Lai held Kurosawa Akira's hand that they really took off the disguise and revealed their true feelings.

The conversation in the kitchen was also a kind of silent declaration, expressing the fact that they had recovered their memories. However, Morobushi Jingguang and Xiao Zhao were still careful not to reveal anything, and Jiang Lai was still calling the name "Midoka".

After finishing dinner and clearing the table, the silver-haired boy handed Jiang Lai a pen and a piece of paper, and looked up and said, "Brother Jiang Lai, can you help me fill out the questionnaire?"

Jiang Lai looked down and saw a paper full of questions. However, the content was not a survey, but some inquiries related to him and the people around him.

He understood and replied with a smile: "Okay, I'll fill it out now."

——This questionnaire was prepared by Jiang Lai and his family before the plan started, and several people from the Public Security Research Institute who knew about it also studied it. The purpose was to test the degree of brainwashing. Only when Jiang Lai reached a certain score would they proceed to the next stage of the conversation.

In addition, there is also a situation of therapeutic drug use. Morobushi Kagemitsu has been mixing restorative drugs into Jiang Lai's meals during this period. At this time, the treatment process has reached 80%, and the remaining 20% ​​requires the same process as Akai.

The combination of the two, coupled with some on-the-spot tests and Kurosawa Akira's psychological suggestion tests, allowed them to truly return to their original state of being a family.

"It's really not easy." Jiang Lai sighed, "Although I have gotten rid of the instruction to [obey orders], some memories are still vague. Should I take advantage of the gentleman's recuperation and get the treatment as well?"

"In theory, letting you recover all your memories first is the safest and most reliable approach." Zhu Fu Jingguang paused for a second, "But..."

"However, the time of that gentleman's recuperation has always been uncertain. He never told us when he would be back, so we could conduct surprise inspections." Kurosawa Akira continued, "This time, it was very close to his last recuperation. I think his recuperation this time should be very short."

The time is short and uncertain, so Jiang Lai cannot carry out the full course of continuous recovery treatment for the time being, because it may be interrupted or "raided" at any time.

"If the time is short, why would he assign the work to you?" Jiang Lai asked with a hint of doubt. "If it's only a few days, even if he doesn't notify you to take over temporarily, there won't be any big problems with the organization."

"That's right." Kurosawa Akira nodded, "So, it's very likely that this is another test and trial. He often does this kind of thing."

...The organization is almost gone, why are you still testing it? Jiang Lai complained in his heart and paused for another second. Oh, by the way, that gentleman doesn't know that his organization is going to be gone.

"Um, has the controller problem been solved?" Jiang Lai looked at Kurosawa Akira, "And the code on the collar around Akai's neck."

"I've told Akai the collar code. He will take it off in the final battle." The silver-haired boy nodded and narrated slowly, "The controller... this is actually on his computer. Every time he sets the time, he needs to enter the password to enter the program to postpone the detonation date, otherwise the bomb will automatically detonate. And, although this program has a button to detonate, there is no pause or stop button."

Ah... It's the most troublesome situation. Jiang Lai frowned. It's not a key or remote control that can be used to turn the tables. It's much more troublesome to set up an automatic detonation program like this.

"Now that we have the password, we can just hand it over to the police and have them input the password at regular intervals and postpone the date," Jiang Lai said.

"No, the password is only one aspect. On the other hand, the gentleman must be present to open the program. Because the computer is connected to a device that detects emotions, the gentleman must remain awake and at the same time be relaxed in order to open the computer."

Jiang Lai: I was just about to say kidnap that gentleman and turn him into a permanent card reader...

"I didn't expect there would be an emotion detection device." Jiang Lai lowered his chin silently, "Does relaxation after hypnosis count? - Or should we brainwash that gentleman again?"

Jiang Lai: God has his own way, and no one can escape punishment. You will soon become a tool for swiping cards, sir!

"I'm not sure if this will work." Kurosawa Akira shook his head, "Maybe the system will judge it as a failure."

"Is it that troublesome... Speaking of which, can the date be extended indefinitely?" Jiang Lai tilted his head and asked, "If we set an indefinite date that it will not explode until thousands of years later, it is actually equivalent to pressing the permanent pause button. Then after the organization is destroyed, each country will check for bombs in various places and slowly dismantle them."

"No, the maximum extension time is two months." Kurosawa Akira shook his head.

If it's two months at most, then the time is indeed a bit tight. Jiang Lai was silent for a while.

"However, these are just the original settings of the program." Kurosawa Akira looked at Jiang Lai with his gray-green eyes. "If there is someone who can hack into the computer and change the program internally, perhaps he can set up the function of terminating, pausing, and extending the date column indefinitely."

Change the program...

Jiang Lai's eyes gathered, and a bright and steady smile appeared: "Then, leave it to me."
