The fog stayed on the screen for a long time. Kano Qiuichi roughly calculated that this time lasted for about half an hour.
And during this half hour, screams kept coming from the screen.
This video was only half an hour long. After the progress bar ran out, Kano Qiuichi saw the fog disperse, revealing the original appearance of the alley.
The alley was not filled with corpses as Kano Akiichi had imagined. Instead, it was very quiet and empty. Even Shibusawa Tatsuhiko, who was standing here just now, disappeared, as if he disappeared out of thin air.
Just half an hour was enough for Shibusawa Tatsuhiko to run away, and the surveillance did not capture him.
"It's just a video, it doesn't mean anything. There are many people with special abilities that can disguise themselves as another person."
"Whether he is Shibusawa Tatsuhiko or not, our goal today is not him at all. Our goal is the Africa Star that was sold to Mr. Suzuki a week ago."
“What does this have to do with the Star of Africa?”
"Shibusawa Tatsuhiko met the Star of Africa before leaving."
"...Then please ask Mr. Kano to bring the Star of Africa over."
Kano Qiuichi called people outside and asked them to bring the African Star. Kano Qiuichi also had close contact with the African Star. According to his perception, there was nothing wrong with the diamond.
A very ordinary diamond.
Assuming that Shibusawa Tatsuhiko really left the dungeon, even participated in the auction, encountered the African Star and dropped it, it is impossible for Kano Akichi not to know about it.
Within two minutes, the people from the Sports Special Branch came with the African Star and knocked on the door. The Kano Qiu family and the African Star came in and asked the people who came to deliver things to leave before placing the gems on the coffee table among them.
.
"Do you have the key?"
"It's here with me." Mr. Suzuki stretched out his hand, unlocked the password box with his fingerprint, and then took out a copper key to open the box made of tempered glass.
The Star of Africa shined even more brightly without the barrier of the glass box. Unfortunately, no one present was interested in admiring the diamond. After consent, Fitzgerald put on his gloves and grabbed the diamond.
Lift it up and hold it in the palm of your hand.
He even asked for a professional appraisal to test whether the diamond was a diamond. However, after some troubles, it was just like Kano Qiuichi judged that the diamond was just a very ordinary diamond.
That’s all.
"This is just an ordinary diamond. Even if he is really touched by Shibusawa Tatsuhiko, Tatsuhiko's superpower will not turn this diamond into anything else."
"Is this really true?" Fitzgerald was a little reluctant to believe it, because after verifying the information he received, the answer he got was that the Star of Africa was no longer the original Star of Africa.
Shibusawa Tatsuhiko's special ability is to draw out other people's willpower and turn it into gems. The gem he took from the Port Mafia at the beginning should be the gem made by Shibusawa Tatsuhiko.
With their combined capabilities, there is absolutely no need to snatch stones from a little-known organization.
The Star of Africa is indeed very precious, but it is nothing compared to the combined assets.
The reason why they care so much about Shibusawa Tatsuhiko is also because of the special nature of Shibusawa Tatsuhiko's abilities.
If the gem he pulled out was placed in an ordinary person's body, that ordinary person would also gain abilities.
Every organization wants to recruit such a talent. If the Special Intelligence Division hadn't acted quickly and quickly rescued the person, it's not certain which country he is in now.
When the port mafia transported diamonds, they were afraid that someone without eyesight would take advantage of their gems. So they made three other almost identical imitations and shipped them together. After the combination used tricks to take away the gems, they also took the other ones in order to confirm.
The imitations were taken away.
Even the Port Mafia didn't know that out of the four diamonds in total, only two were serious imitations made by it. Only one of the remaining two diamonds was genuine, and the other one was stolen by Shibusawa Ryu.
Yan's forged supernatural power crystal.
And the diamond he sold to Mr. Suzuki was genuine.
The two organizations, the Combination and the Port Mafia, cannot be compared at all. One is a transnational organization, while the other is only a regional organization. They cannot be compared at all. It is impossible for Fitzgerald not to recognize the leader when he saw him.
, I just don’t want to pay attention to him.
"Then do you still need this diamond?"
"Since it's not the one we're looking for, there's no need for it." Fitzgerald rubbed the teacup in his hand.
But what is strange about the six people now is that one of the four gems is in Mr. Suzuki's place, and the remaining three are in his hands. However, the three gems in his hand have been authenticated by professionals, and they are all genuine.
But... among these four, one is obviously genuine, one is a superpower crystal, and the remaining two are all fakes.
What exactly went wrong?
From the Port Mafia in Yokohama, Osamu Dazai, wearing a black suit jacket, hummed softly and followed Ogai Mori from the first floor to his office.
Jianye's port mafia headquarters was unexpectedly quiet, probably because the people in charge had all gone to the cruise ship, and only some minions were left here. The manager, Ozaki Momiji, was not upstairs either, but was doing daily work in the basement.
interrogation work.
Mori Ogai has been in the Port Mafia for several years. In addition, he is the leader's personal doctor and is much higher than the average member at the headquarters. Coupled with his status, he can walk independently in the area than when he just joined.
There are many more Osamu Dazai in the Port Mafia.
Originally, since the leader was away, Mori Ogai didn't have to come to work today, but he came anyway, and he even brought the new guy Dazai Osamu with him.
"Dazai-kun, hurry up, otherwise it will be too late." After Mori Ogai walked in front for a while, he turned to Dazai, who was slowly following behind him.
"It's not an important matter anyway, it's useless even if you hurry up." Even though Osamu Dazai said this, he still walked a lot faster, jogged a few steps and followed closely behind him.
Mori Ogai's office is just one floor below the chief's office. He is afraid that he will not be treated in time. Now the chief has even built a direct passage from the medical room to the chief's office. Normally this road is sealed. Only in special circumstances can he go directly there.
Come up below.
This room is indeed convenient. If there is an emergency, you can come up from this room for rescue, but in a certain way, this room and this passage have become a weapon for him to kill.
As long as the other party is willing, he can go up from this room and kill him without anyone noticing.
It's a pity that the leader who is a little unclear now does not take this to heart. Although other cadres are already trying to stop him, he can't listen to other people's opinions and insists on going his own way, like a child. The more he is not allowed to do anything,
The more you do, the more you do.
Even Mori Ogai dissuaded him when he heard that he wanted to connect his room with the chief's office, but unfortunately the other party did not listen to him at all. Mori Ogai had to accept it half-heartedly, creating good conditions for today's action.
.
There is a gem the size of a pigeon egg in the pocket of Mori Ogai's white coat. Even in such a dark environment, this gem still shines with a charming luster.
Mori Ogai walked to a place out of the surveillance camera's reach, took out the gem, and handed it to Dazai Osamu behind him, "This gem is priceless. It would be very difficult to deal with it if you accidentally lose it."
"But it is so valuable. Mr. Sen, didn't you still steal it? I believe everyone is looking for it."
The diamond that the Port Mafia could not find is now in Mori Ogai's hands, and Mori Ogai obviously had a premeditated plan to steal the gem.
The conversation between the two people was not heard by others. If someone heard it, they would be surprised and rush forward to arrest them.
However, the current situation is that the person in charge is too busy in the execution room, and the others have been sent out by Mori Ogai. Those who remain in the headquarters only have the most basic security force, even in the monitoring room at all times.
Those who checked the surveillance did not notice the conversation between Ogai Mori and Osamu Dazai.
The picture on the surveillance camera showed Ogai Mori returning to his room with his new apprentice. The two people who returned to the room changed their clothes and opened the cabinet where the medicine was placed, revealing a door at the back that was almost the same as the wall.
A small door to be integrated into one.
This door is the passage that can directly connect to the leader's office. The only person with the key, besides the leader, is Mori Ogai.
Mori Ogai opened the door with the key, and led Dazai Osamu through the long stairs from the room. After passing dozens of checkpoints, he finally stood in front of another metal door.
As long as you open that door, there is the chief's office and the chief's bedroom.
There are actually very few people who know this passage. Only the leader and the cadres under his command know it. Apart from the six of them, the only one who knows this passage is Mori Ogai, and now Osamu Dazai is included.
"I'll leave the security work to you." Mori Ogai, who was standing at the door but had not yet entered, said to Dazai Osamu.
Even if there is no one in the office, there are still mafia on duty outside the chief's office.
It's just that the leader is afraid that someone will disturb him, so the room is very soundproofed. Unless the sound is extremely loud, no one outside can hear it.
He would bring Dazai Osamu here because he wanted to pull Dazai Osamu onto his ship.
The first time Mori Ogai saw Dazai Osamu, he understood that this child, like himself, was definitely not someone who would settle for mediocrity. When he saw this child, he even had the illusion of seeing himself when he was young.
As long as this child doesn't betray him, the two of them will be the best allies.
"I can't fight at all. It's useless even if you ask me to be on guard." He stretched out his hand and took the gem thrown by Mori Ogai. The dark diamond seemed to have lost its disguise in Dazai Osamu's hand.
The same, revealing the red crystals inside.
This rhombus-shaped red gem exuded blood-colored light. He pinched the corners of both ends and placed it in front of his eyes. He looked through the gem at Mori Ogai. Mori Ogai was taking out the key to open the door and making a squeaking sound.
There was a sound.
Then the gem in his hand lost all its luster in a matter of moments.
The red light that originally flowed in the gem disappeared and turned into an ordinary glass stone. Mori Ogai noticed the strangeness of the diamond in Dazai Osamu's hand, but was not too surprised. He took the diamond back from Dazai Osamu's hand.
Diamond stepped on the soft carpet, found the leader's safe with ease, opened the safe with the password in his heart, and threw the diamond in.
There is no surveillance in the chief's office, so Mori Ogai only needs to wear gloves to ensure that he does not leave any fingerprints on the safe.
Mori Ogai threw the ordinary piece of glass in and locked the door.
"Okay, our mission for today is over. Now we can go back to eat." Mori Ogai clasped his palms together, "Remember to clean up the traces you left before leaving."
Osamu Dazai was told that today's operation was over before he could even look at the layout in the leader's office.
"Is it over so soon? It was so grand." Dazai Osamu complained in a low voice, "I thought it would be very thrilling."
Otherwise he wouldn't agree to come.
No matter how ignorant he is, he still knows that this kind of thing is not something that a child like him can interfere with. Once he is discovered, he will probably face death.
But he still did it.
Just for the pursuit of excitement.
