Chapter 81

【

"This room had been empty for a long time before you came."

Gin lit a cigarette, the curling smoke mixed with water vapor, and the picture showed a disgusting turbidity.

The silver-haired man had his back to the surveillance camera above his head, so it was impossible to see where his eyes were looking.

A deep voice sounded: "How does it feel to be away for so long?"

"…What are you doing here?"

The person being questioned was wearing a thin shirt that was completely soaked, and the cloth that had absorbed enough moisture was sticky to his body. He turned his head away, looking very uncomfortable, and with such a simple action, he didn't know where he was hurt, and he suddenly bent over and started coughing.

The translucent shirt highlights the shape of the butterfly bones, and the curve of the back suddenly sinks into an arc at the lower back, rising and shaking with the sound of coughing.

In contrast to the wet stains on his body, his voice was extremely hoarse when he spoke, as if it had been dry for many days.

Gin didn't answer. The killer stared silently at the prey that had no way to escape, but he didn't show any emotion similar to "satisfaction" or "joy".

Tick-tock——

The only sounds in the room were panting and the constant sound of dripping water.

Just when the breathing of the young man, whose half body was tied to the chair frame, calmed down a little, the tall and cold killer like a cold and hard sculpture suddenly made a move.

Gin took a big step forward, and the distance between the two of them shrank to a very small size in an instant. His fingers, which had been holding a gun for many years, pulled off the black cloth covering the young man's eyes with force like iron hooks.

The strong light pierced into the eyeballs, and almost at the same time, the tears that welled up due to conditioned reflex once again wet the tightly closed eyelashes.

】

In that short period of less than half a second, people inside and outside the screen also caught a moment - a flash of dark red irises, as dark as solidified blood.

Fūya Rei felt a chill run down his spine. After seeing the layout of the room, he couldn't help but recall the scene when the two of them parted at the gate of the base after their joint mission was completed.

...After that, when he contacted Matsuda and was immersed in the joy of meeting his classmate, did Seijiu encounter such a thing while being locked in the confinement room?

He clenched his teeth tightly, and a strong smell of rust seeped out of his throat, but it seemed to be just his illusion.

The image continued, and Furuya Rei could only force himself not to miss any possible breakthrough.

【

"These useless eyes are really an eyesore... I might as well dig them out for you."

Gin's tone suddenly became sinister, and he burst out with undisguised murderous intent. Before he finished speaking, the hand that he had just torn off the strip of cloth had already covered the fragile eyes of the white-haired young man, and the moment their skin touched, the latter's whole body was violently shaken.

Shengjiu should have tried to struggle and push him away, but his hands were bound in handcuffs, and the result of his movement was that the restraints became tighter and tighter. Fortunately, he had little strength to begin with, and his red wrists did not bleed.

Gin slowed down his speech and lowered his voice to a very low level, but the movements of his hands were completely different from the intimacy between lovers, which was almost like whispering.

The young man was forced to raise his chin, his lips unconsciously parted slightly, and he gasped in unbearable breaths.

】

——No.

Furukaya Rei suddenly realized that Holy Wine seemed to be saying something.

The blond man's stiff and cold limbs regained consciousness at this moment. His pupils trembled, but he still stared at the young man on the screen, trying to analyze his lip movements.

【

——Your memory is not very good.

The most vulnerable organ is controlled by others. After saying this silently, the white-haired young man even smiled slightly.

He ignored Gin's reaction, turned his head with some effort, and slowly opened his eyes.

Gin, who had always been tough, did not get angry and let the other party escape from his control. However, he still did not retract his left hand. His thumb rubbed from the corner of his eye to behind his ear, and his palm moved down, holding his neck.

There was a layer of mist in Shengjiu's eyes that could not be dispersed. The mist reduced the indifference in his eyes, and added a bit of fragility and harmlessness. Even though he had no expression on his face, when he looked at someone, he seemed to be begging for something silently, making people want to reach out and wipe away the tears on his eyelids.

Gin did exactly that, but in a more violent way. The rough fingertips rubbed the broken tears, leaving a circle of heavy red marks on the young man's cold white skin. It's more like a revengeful act than a thoughtful gesture.

This time the Holy Wine did not dodge. After the previous two attempts, he knew he could not dodge.

He just stared at Gin. His weak voice was mostly covered by the sound of water, but it still reached his ears with great penetrating power.

"Give me my medicine."

"You know..."

“…Give it to me.”

】

Bang——!

There was a sound of something being smashed, and Fūya Rei felt dizzy and there seemed to be a tinnitus in his ears.

The image ended at this moment, and his dazed eyes were reflected on the screen which returned to darkness.

The last words he heard echoed like a curse, tearing him in two.

His throat tightened, and chaotic thoughts flashed through his mind uncontrollably.

Medicine? What exactly is the medicine mentioned in the Holy Wine? Is it related to his appearance in the organization under disguise?

When facing his questions that night, I kept murmuring apologies. Was it because of this...?

Because the organization used a certain drug on Yuki, he could not tell his true identity, and could never return to the light, and could not recognize them.

In the midst of his extremely suppressed anger, Fūya Rei suddenly tasted a sense of desolate and powerless bitterness.

Yes... Even if Holy Wine had revealed his real name that night, what would it matter? As long as the organization's roots were deeply rooted in this country, they would never be safe and could never be honest with each other.

He can't protect important people either.

The stinging pain in his palm forced him back to consciousness. When he came to his senses, he found that he still had the instinct to protect himself and had already returned the progress bar to the beginning. In the dark screen, there was still only the faint sound of water.

Fūya Rei laughed at himself in his heart and dared not look at the screen again.

He took a step back slowly, and after a moment he realized that his clothes were soaked with cold sweat.

Bourbon's cell phone in his pocket vibrated twice, indicating that there was a new email.

Fūya Rei took out his cell phone with stiff fingers, and after seeing the contents clearly, his eyes and brows were filled with an icy coldness.

He was breathing rapidly and clenched his hand around the phone so tightly that he almost crushed the outer casing.

"Rum: Tell me exactly what's in the video."

——Lang, Mu!

Even though Rao was a strict and upright person like Jiang Gu Ling, he couldn't stand it anymore and swore.

Sure enough, he said how could Gin not notice that the image on the screen was still playing when he left the room!

It turns out that it was Rum who was causing trouble behind the scenes!

Fūya Rei took a deep breath, calmed his head and analyzed the doubts.

Could it be that Rum and Gin were testing him together? No, just playing the video on the table didn't prove anything. He could assume that it was data that would be used in the mission.

So Rum wanted to get this video, but for some reason he couldn't show up himself or alarm Gin, so he chose him?

Come to think of it, Gin's hasty departure just now did seem like he was temporarily transferred away.

A strong sense of sarcasm appeared in Fūya Rei's eyes.

Is it true that the second-in-command and the top killer in the organization still have a relationship of suspicion of each other?

Although there are still many things that have not been explained, such as how Rum was sure that he had seen the video and what his purpose was in recording it - but Furuya Rei took a deep breath and began to think about how to reply to the email.

...Do you want to tell it as it is?

That——

Fūya Rei's gaze fell on the screen and suddenly retracted as if he was stabbed in pain.

...He had faced this dilemma countless times, but this was the first time he had the urge to return to the person he loved at all costs.
