Chapter 429: A codename that does not match the time
Chapter 431 A code name that doesn’t match the time
Pisk is that gentleman's pawn. Kuroki Jin has known this for a long time.
But he was still surprised that the gentleman would come to rescue Pisk.
Belmode chuckled. Her beautiful face exuded the charm of a mature woman at this moment, but any normal man would probably get lost in this smile.
It just so happens that Kuroki Ren is not normal, and Crow Messenger is not a man.
Even with a voice changer, women's speaking habits cannot be changed. Kuroki Jin identified her gender after only listening to two sentences, let alone Belmod, who seemed to know who this person was.<
/p>
The Crow Messenger asked Belmod to release Pisk and take her back.
Her arrival to a certain extent represents the intention of that gentleman. Although it is a pity for Kuroki Jin, he knows that being able to throw Pisk in and clean him up is already a favor given to him by Belmode.
Unexpectedly, Belmode was not in a hurry, sitting leisurely in his seat without being anxious at all, and while listening to the scolding in the background, he ordered Kuroki Hitoshi:
"Porter, give this guest a Negroni."
Kuroki Ren was stunned for a moment, glanced at Belmode to confirm that she was not joking, then lightly pursed his lips and said yes.
There was no wine in the room, so Kuroki could only go out to the warehouse to get it. Since he wanted to go out, he had to pass by the crow messenger.
The moment he turned sideways, he couldn't help but glance in the direction to his side, and then quickly looked back.
As soon as he went out, Kuroki put the mask on his face. The top hat was placed inside the house, and he could only raise his collar further up and walk with his head lowered.
He didn't move quickly, and it took him nearly twenty minutes just to pick the wine. When he took the selected wine bottle and ice cubes back to the room, he saw the crow messenger still standing at the door.
"Why don't you come in and sit for a while?" Kuroki Jin politely invited as he passed by.
"Someone doesn't welcome me, so I won't come in." The crow messenger didn't look like a man of few words, "Just give me my wine."
Kuroki Jin finished mixing the Negroni in front of her and handed it into her hands.
The right hand exposed from under the raincoat made Kuroki Jin even more sure that it was a woman. Although her five fingers were wrapped with black gauze, the slenderness of her palm was not as slender as that of a man.
After taking the glass and thanking her, Kuroki Ren watched her finish the high-altitude cocktail and said goodbye without changing her voice.
Only then did Kuroki Ren notice that the scolding in the background had stopped at some point.
After people left, Kuroki piled the remaining gin, vermouth and Campari on the table, took off his mask and stared at Bermod with a puzzled expression.
Belmode: "..."
"What do you want to say?"
Kuroki Ren looked like a good boy and said, "Did he do it on purpose?"
Belmode figured out who the "him" Kuroki Jin was referring to.
While secretly sighing that this child has been taught to be so smart, Belmode made a puzzled "Huh?" sound.
It also comes with a head-turning killer.
Kuroki Ren: "..."
"It's getting late, I'm going home." He said coldly.
"Xiaoren," Bermod said softly, "bring this back." She pushed the Campari toward him among the three bottles of wine that Kuroki Ren picked out.
Kuroki stared at the wine for a few seconds, then smiled and said: "Okay."
The codename Campari is used by someone in the organization. Coincidentally, the user is a graduate of the same class as Jin Kuroki.
The message that the woman from Belmod wanted to convey to him was that the crow messenger was related to Campari.
There are no female graduates in their class, and he is actually not very familiar with the other two boys.
At that time, he was focused on trying his best to be transferred to Gin's side as soon as possible, so naturally he didn't pay much attention to the people around him.
At most, I know that the codenames of the last two boys are Jagermeister and Campair, both of which are liqueurs.
It seems that his code name seems a bit out of place.
Kuroki Ren was stunned. He suddenly thought that it seemed that every member who officially joined the organization had the same code name. For example, the earlier one had whiskey. Fortified wines like Port... It seemed that they were born in the 10th century.
The batch given five years ago.
Fifteen years ago, Kuroki Jin just joined the organization and was still a frail child.
Fifteen years ago...
Kuroki hit the brakes and stopped the car, then called Gin.
It is now eight o'clock in the evening, the time for the resident female singer of a certain bar to take the stage.
Gin who answered the phone said "Hello" with murderous intent.
Kuroki Jin didn't hear the impatience hidden in his words, but he was busy asking: "Gin, Gin, when did Shirley's code name be given to her?"
Gin: "..."
He took a deep breath, fearing that Kuroki Ren's inquiry was of some importance, so he gritted his teeth and answered him: "What happened fifteen years ago?"
Is there any news from Shirley?
"Oh, okay, thank you." Kuroki Jin hung up the phone.
Gin:?!
Kuroki Ren didn't know that he had inadvertently angered the boss. He put his head on the steering wheel and tried hard to clear his mind and think about what happened before.
He was rescued by Gin, and followed Gin all the way to meet Belmode. The two were going on a mission. Belmode proposed to take him back to the organization's training base. He waited for the two of them in a safe house for seven days before being released.
Take it away.
There was very little food in the safe house. According to Kuroki Ren's memory, it was not enough to feed his child for seven days. It seemed that on the fourth day he went outside... to pick fruits?
He remembered that the safe house was located in a mountain forest.
He was in a daze for two days, and even fell asleep on the last day. If Gin hadn't come back in time, he would have suspected that he would starve to death there.
Then he was brought into the organization and trained day after day until he got his code name and was taken by Gin with him.
No, no, then why is your code name not liqueur, but port, a fortified wine?
If he hadn't found this pattern, it could be said that the organization randomly issued them. After all, some codenames were inherited by new people due to the death of the previous one, such as the current Pisk.
But as graduates in the same period, they even have the same surname, but the types of wine are different?
Unless... the time when Kuroki Jin actually got the code name was not at graduation, but the code name he got with that class of graduates when he was just sent to the organization fifteen years ago.
Or maybe...this code name has been reserved for him for fifteen years.
"Dong dong."
Kuroki Jin woke up and jumped up from the steering wheel. When he turned his head, he saw Haibara Ai knocking on his window with no expression... and the faces of four children.
He pressed down the car window, and while his mind was still confused, he was attacked by the sonic waves of three excited children.
"Brother Ren, brother Ren, why did you park your car here?"
"Brother Ren, brother Ren, did you come to pick us up specially?"
"Brother Ren, brother Ren, I... am hungry..."
The three excited children instantly turned into three hungry children, standing dejectedly outside the car.
Kuroki Ren: "..."
He was so confused by the calls of "Brother Ren" that he subconsciously said:
