Chapter 78

Morobushi Jingguang certainly believed in the childhood dream, but the content of the dream was too horrifying, and it took him a long time to delete all the images that shouldn't exist in his mind.

Then I couldn't sleep anymore.

Since he couldn't sleep, he drove directly to the location. After more than an extremely long hour, it was finally time to go to work.

Just as the alarm for eight o'clock in the morning was about to ring, he quickly pressed the mute button, quickly picked up the spare room card with a hint of anxiety, and went to the hotel room.

Is it too early after all?

Looking at the person in the middle of the bed with only half of his face exposed, Zhu Fu Jingguang sighed barely perceptibly.

There were not many signs of use in the room. The kettle and cups on the wooden tea table were still in their original condition, and the sofa and cushions were as clean as new. There was no sign that anyone else had been there.

Morofushi Jingguang thought to himself that even though Ling said on the phone that he and Shengjiu "would spend the night together", they didn't necessarily have to stay in the same room.

Since he can't get too close to the members of the organization, Zero should have maintained the most basic defense.

Having convinced himself, Morofushi Jingguang felt more at ease than when he first arrived. He looked around habitually and looked down to see his cell phone thrown on the fluffy carpet. He picked up the phone and bumped into something in the process. The screen flashed twice with the "low battery" prompt.

Thinking that there should be a charger in a hotel room that often hosts drunk guests, Morofu Jingguang quietly opened the drawer of the bedside cabinet and found a shared charging cable inside.

He half-crouched, stretched out his arm, connected the power supply on the side of the bedside, and glanced casually to the side.

His pupils shrank for a moment.

The sheets were black - so the light blonde hair stood out against them.

...Unfortunately, as far as he knew, there seemed to be only one person with hair of this color who had been in this room.

Morofushi Kagemitsu's breathing stopped for a few seconds and he turned his eyes away stiffly.

The person on the bed hasn't woken up yet. The quilt is covered tightly, the tip of the white nose is lost in the shadows, the slightly messy silver hair blocks the eyebrows and eyes, and a hint of red can be vaguely seen at the corners of the eyes.

“…”

Zhu Fu Jingguang took a deep breath and calmed down.

He stood up slowly, moving very gently for fear of waking anyone up, and carefully picked up the light blond hair and cleaned it.

Before leaving the room, Morobushi Jingguang checked again to make sure there were no other traces that might lead to exposure, and then left the bedroom with an unclear expression.

After walking out of the corridor completely, he couldn't help but take out his cell phone. When he saw the name of Furuya Rei, he started to have a headache. He didn't know how to ask, so he had to put it back.

In just a few hours, Morofu Jingguang's mood went up and down like a lift, and now it was so complicated that he was speechless.

——Zero, what happened to you yesterday?

--

At first, Kono Seiryoshi was just pretending to be asleep, but as he pretended, he became too sleepy and really fell asleep.

When I woke up again, the sunlight shone through the gauze curtains onto my face, which was a bit dazzling.

He had slept too long and was not fully awake yet. He yawned and it took him a long time to regain his focus.

The memory before falling asleep flashed through his mind, and Gong Ye Shengliang was startled. He quickly opened the system map and was relieved when he didn't see anyone nearby.

Fortunately, fortunately, I managed to escape.

……Um?

Why is he hiding?

When he thought of this, Gongye Shengliang's originally confused eyes suddenly became sharp, and he called out the system.

"I don't believe it."

His voice was unusually serious, and he emphasized: "I am a good drinker."

The light ball was very suspicious: [Really?]

Kono Seira was silent: "... probably."

He felt unwilling to give up after saying this, and made a small excuse: "Although I don't have much experience of getting drunk, I never feel awkward when I meet people the next day after drinking."

The mafia in Europe pays special attention to etiquette and tradition. Most of the leaders of the tenth generation of Vongola are from Japan, but they also follow the local customs and participate in the activities. Hibari Kyoya has never liked gatherings. As a subordinate of Kumoshou, he will more or less be invited to banquets on behalf of his superiors, and drinking is inevitable.

"If Fran and Collom were here, they would use magic to help me replace the alcohol with drinks." Kono Seira answered honestly.

Light Ball: […So you have never drunk alcohol before!]

Kono Seiryoshi patted the quilt vigorously, trying to convince others with facts: "I did drink it during the family gathering!"

It was the first time that he was drinking legally on his twentieth birthday according to Japanese law. The enthusiastic Harumori patted him on the shoulder and shouted excitedly: "Today, men should drink to the extreme! Go ahead, I'm rooting for you!"

In his heart, Kono Sei was wondering why he had never heard of this custom, but soon he lost himself in Harumori's repeated shouts of "Limit!" "Passionate!" "Never admit defeat!" and drank the sake in the cup in one gulp.

As the wine went down his throat, his first thought was - this man is not a good man at all.

The next day came in the blink of an eye. He felt guilty for wasting Harumori's kindness, but he couldn't find Harumori after searching the entire base. Just as he was puzzled, Kirimori appeared from the red lotus mist and told him with a smile that Harumori had gone on a business trip to Australia to practice his box weapon and boxing with local kangaroos.

At that time, Kono Seiryoshi said: "..."

It's a bit outrageous, but it seems reasonable.

With the idea of ​​"If I can't find Harumori, I can ask someone else", he grabbed the coat of Rokudo Mukuro who was about to leave. Under the gaze of the double-colored eyes, he spoke hesitantly: "I didn't cause any trouble to everyone yesterday, did I?"

"What do you mean?" The blue-haired man raised his eyebrows and chuckled twice before he could answer. "If you want to know if I made any noise after getting drunk, don't worry. You're very obedient."

At this point, his elegant voice with a strange tone sank slightly: "But...it's better to drink less in the future."

"——That's what Mr. Mukuro said, so I would never do what you said when I'm drunk." Kono Seira spoke confidently, becoming more and more confident, and he was just about to raise his hand to swear.

After listening to his description, the light ball said: [.]

This pineapple head looks suspicious! How can you believe what he says?

The system suddenly felt that a heavy burden had been placed on its shoulders, and it was urgent to raise the contractors' awareness of fraud prevention.

At this moment, the AI ​​system felt the emotion that humans often say: "I am disappointed that my friends have failed to make it." It did not want to talk and packaged up and sent the video records of last night to the contractor.

By directly transmitting information to the consciousness, several hours of records can be digested in a few seconds. The system cannot interfere with the direction of the world line, so the record stops at the moment when Furuya Rei was stunned after hearing the answer.

During this time, the light ball saw the contractor's expression change from calm and confident to a frown as if he realized something was wrong, and finally his pupils trembled in disbelief.

It lit up an electronic cigarette with a sad look on its face and said in a deep voice: [So, you should finally believe me now.]

Kono Seiryoshi was still in shock from being exposed without doing anything. He paused for a moment and looked at the system with a complicated expression: "It was because of what you said that I was almost recognized."

Light Ball: [……]

Light Ball: [Hey.]

Kono Seiryoshi: “…”

He should have known that none of the options given by the system were reliable.

Being lazy is not a good thing. Gongye Shengliang reflected deeply and decided to rely on himself in the future.

Fortunately, when Furuya Rei asked, "Do you know who I am?", he did not stupidly answer "Zero" or "zero", so his current identity can still be saved.

However, this insignificant little pride was soon washed away by sorrow. It is easy to be suspicious, but it is very difficult to overturn the suspicion.

Especially when one or two of them are very familiar to him from the past and cannot be fooled...

There were two unread text messages from Scotland in the mailbox of my mobile phone. The first one said "I'll pick you up", and the second one was sent forty minutes ago, saying that he was downstairs and could come over at any time.

Kono Seiryoshi replied to the latter message, packed up briefly, and waited for Morofu Kagemitsu to come upstairs.

There was a subtle sense of incongruity in the disguise when looking in the mirror, but Kono Seiryoshi thought it was just an accidental scratch while falling asleep and didn't take it seriously.

Almost the second after he came out of the bathroom, there was a knock on the door. "It's me."

A familiar voice reached my ears, and perhaps because of the door between us, it sounded a little tense.

Kono Seiryoshi insisted on maintaining his image as a holy wine and opened the door wearing gloves and a mask.

It was unknown what the black-haired, phoenix-eyed young man was thinking. When he met his face, he was stunned at first, then avoided his gaze a little uncomfortably.

Kono Seira was a little confused. If Ling had told Jingguang about his doubts about his identity, the latter's reaction should not have been like this.

Moreover, he thought he had pretended to be asleep very well just now, so could something unexpected have happened along the way?

By the way, when did Zero leave?

Problems arose one after another, and considering the nature of the organization's work, Gongye Shengliang couldn't help but feel a little worried.

As he walked out of the room, he glanced at Zhu Fu Jing Guang, who was particularly silent today, and asked in a roundabout way, "Scotland, did you meet anyone on the way here?"

"..." Zhu Fujingguang smiled politely, "Do you want to ask about Bourbon?"

As soon as the words came out, the air seemed to stop flowing and became completely still.

Kono Seira was silent for a few seconds and turned his head away silently, "...No, nothing."

Help! He didn’t dare to ask!
