Chapter 15 Unsafe publicly funded travel is like...
"Buzz—"
The anti-fraud team emphasized its presence and then proactively displayed the previous reporting records in a pop-up window:
[Just now, a user reported "Ishimaru Seiya"...]
Ishimaru is the cross-shaped guy who just left.
That's like the police coming to arrest him, only to get themselves implicated. So, wouldn't the person who reported him be...?
Oh, it's me. It's alright then.
Zhu Fujingguang coughed lightly, then immediately began falsifying accounts, relying on his accounting skills which he had only studied for a few months. Of course, all of this was remotely directed by the public security team, and in the end, he managed to clear his name within the critical 24 hours.
Of course, when he saw his squad leader and the others blocking the company building that night, no one would think about the extent of his psychological trauma at that moment.
Fortunately, he managed to shift the blame in time and actively reported his former superior, Akita, for illegally disseminating pornographic videos, thus earning a small merit. He was released after only a few polite words with the squad leader in the interrogation room.
Before leaving, Date patted Morofushi Kagemitsu on the shoulder, everything was understood without words.
The incident of accidentally ending up in the police station was just a minor episode. After he explained the whole story to Melo (and Akita was inevitably dragged out to take the blame again), he wasn't neglected. He continued to handle part of the organization's financial transactions, and the police team continued to work overtime.
While he was busy with paperwork, he received an "award" from the organization.
It turned out to be his superior, Melo. She had used some unknown means to frame Akita as a spy planted by Rum, and even pinned a small portion of the money Rum had embezzled over the years on Akita. If it weren't for the intelligence team obtaining crucial information about the Osaka Tzu Chi Foundation, Rum would likely have been completely crushed.
Of course, these are just rumors circulating within the organization. Whether or not a boss is weighing the pros and cons behind the scenes in this power struggle between the two forces is debatable, but judging from the outcome alone, Melo currently has the upper hand.
Morofushi Kagemitsu also benefited from his superior's influence, and since he had also contributed significantly to eliminating Akita, he was also given a reward.
Oh, it's a travel voucher.
= =
A travel voucher... and the electronic kind at that.
That's it?
That sounds so unreliable. Could it be one of those coupons that reduces airfare by 500 yen?
Having seen so many company perks these past few days, Morofushi Kagemitsu had no doubt that the organization wouldn't do something like this. You see, even Ishimaru, who had worked there for quite some time, had a whole bunch of perks in his office drawer like "helicopter discount cards" and "custom jewelry discount coupons"—perks that he simply couldn't use and didn't need to use.
Why doesn't this brewery—no, this Black Organization—like other criminal organizations, try to win people over with money? They didn't even manage to secure the privilege of an extra case of beer on holidays.
well……
Without much expectation, Morofushi Kagemitsu opened his email, only to find that the message wasn't a benefit offer, but rather a mission to go abroad. The so-called travel vouchers were simply a way to redeem the travel, accommodation, and meals for this business trip.
...
Well, in any case, he has another opportunity to prove his abilities.
Last time, someone was robbed of their head. This time, they're abroad. Surely they can't run into some detective again, right?
He glanced at the contents:
[Visiting and processing research institutes marked in the United States (+)]
The "+" is currently grayed out and cannot be expanded, but it's clear that this is a complex task, with multiple layers, and there are likely more participants than just myself. Moreover, since the task has already been issued, countless smaller tasks have probably already been assigned, just waiting for them to run errands.
Morobuchi Kagemitsu naturally replied with "Received".
Then, following the time and location specified on the travel voucher, he used his current fake identity to apply for a passport right under the nose of the cross-shaped camera.
Actually, he didn't want to go through all this trouble, but there was no record of Asakawa Sora leaving the country, so the appearance of a passport out of nowhere seemed very fake. Therefore, he used the police's fast track to deceive everyone.
While waiting for his passport, he took advantage of his position in the finance department to learn some juicy gossip about the trip.
It turns out that the organization's temporary transfer of these personnel in Japan was a last resort, and the process was extremely convoluted and absurd.
The original plan was for them to coordinate with members located in the United States to launch a large-scale attack against the major owners of certain research institutes as a deterrent. However, the plan was leaked for some reason, and the operation was foiled by the FBI on the day of the operation, resulting in heavy losses for the organization.
As if things weren't going to go wrong, the FBI, having already tasted success, had no reason to let go. The renowned Commissioner Smith, with a flash of inspiration, cleverly devised various pretexts to siphon off a large sum of money to deal with the Black Organization.
Soon, they prepared a counterattack, and Smith even placed his top lieutenants Edward and Thomas into the group to AFK and gain experience.
What should have been an ordinary gunfight turned out to be an unexpected turn of events.
The person in charge of this operation accidentally added the wrong person to the group chat during the operation discussion. By sheer coincidence, he added one of the organization's intelligence personnel to the group, and no one in the entire group noticed anything was wrong!
What happened next...
In short, the FBI team was enraged.
Commissioner Smith, despite condemnation from Congress and under the guise of national security, persuaded the president to use force to deter illegal immigrants and, if necessary, deport them.
This put the organization in a difficult position. Their American members had been severely weakened, and martial law had been tightened at the Mexican border. Therefore, the personnel seconded from Japan had to use their passports strictly, and to avoid attracting the attention of the authorities, they even managed to obtain citizenship from various Southeast Asian countries.
After watching the drama unfold, Morofushi Kagemitsu had mixed feelings. He initially wanted to complain a little about the organization's and the US's intelligence security, but then he thought about the state of his own country...
Since things have come to this, let's just lie down and let them mock us.
He was packing his luggage for this "business trip," and the anti-fraud team didn't think too much about it, continuing to refresh various news feeds for him at a steady pace.
"Buzz—Buzz—Buzz—"
[Breaking News: Major good news! Another stronghold of an illegal organization has been seized by the police!]
Good news! It's probably another one of the organization's strongholds.
By the way, he didn't even know the people and places mentioned in the report. Could it be that his colleagues were emboldened after seeing the scandal that broke in the United States a few days ago and were working hard to redeem themselves?
If that's the case, it wouldn't be a bad thing.
"Buzz—"
[Scam Exposed: Information Security! Pay Attention to These Points When Buying Airline Tickets!]
The account in this screenshot was the one I reported last night. Did I get feedback so quickly? Considering the Cross Guy incident, the anti-fraud team has been very efficient lately.
Great news!
I wonder if, after going abroad, the anti-fraud team will still only report on incidents within Japan. If its other "spirits" can't go overseas, then they'll only be able to leak those information to their contacts under the guise of "intelligence." Like the airline information leak, I should have already disembarked by then, but that wouldn't have prevented the public security team from investigating.
Moreover, looking at it from another perspective, since I'm not in the country, the public security team can operate more freely. Even if the organization wants to investigate the intelligence leak, they're unlikely to start with me; they can simply find a scapegoat and shift the blame, just like before.
After settling his affairs, Morofushi Kagemitsu boarded a flight to the United States early the next morning with his luggage.
Just as he was preparing to take a nap and sneak to his destination, something unexpected happened.
"All of you, behave yourselves! Hijacking!"
Zhu Fujingguang: ...
