Chapter 115 The brothers who broke the ice for the first time
"[Nichimai Shimbun] A bomb attack occurred near Abeido Mall in Tokyo on November 7. The incident resulted in the death of a police officer. Our station is still following the specific situation."
Almost at the same time that Qingchuan Yu saw the news, Toru Amuro received a phone call.
The soundproofing effect of his mobile phone was excellent. Ikue and Morohoshida did not hear the content of the call, but Toru Amuro's face turned pale in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, Toru Amuro stood up and looked at Qingchuan Yu.
Qingchuan Yu's voice became a little hoarse: "Bourbon..."
"I have something to deal with, it's urgent." Toru Amuro emphasized.
It can be seen that he is trying his best to conceal his emotions, but his slightly trembling voice still reveals his fluctuating mood.
"I'll go with you." Although Qingchuan Yu didn't know what happened yet, he still said to his best friend without hesitation.
Toru Amuro just nodded slightly. He left the safe house without looking at Ikue and Morohoshi again.
Oh, something interesting seems to have happened.
Yu Jiang looked at Qingchuan Yu with interest.
Qingchuan Yu barely managed to calm down: "I'm going to see what's urgent. I'll leave the mission commission to you and Lai."
"Yeah."
The light spots in Yu Jiang's eyes flickered slightly, but he did not ask in the end.
——Even though he knew that as long as Qingchuan Yu and Amuro Tohru were threatened with their status as undercover agents, Qingchuan Yu would have to tell him the truth no matter what happened.
"The commission this time is not bad." Zhu Xingda just finished checking his account balance and said with satisfaction.
"Hey, Rai." Yujiang asked abruptly, "Who is that girl to you?"
"Didn't I tell you?" Zhu Xingda looked as usual, slightly indifferent, "She is the daughter of an old acquaintance of mine. But I didn't shoot the gangster to save her, I just didn't want the gangster to affect our mission.
."
Yujiang ignored the second half of Zhu Xingda's words: "You must have a very good relationship with your old acquaintance. You even have to take care of his daughter."
Zhu Xingda didn't respond. He was huddled in the corner of the safe house smoking alone, looking a little lonely.
Yu Jiang pointed to the no-smoking sign next to him and reminded him: "The fine for violating the ban is two hundred yuan. Please pay in U.S. dollars, thank you."
This thing is actually a rule set by Papert himself, and it is not universal. Otherwise, to stop those old smokers from urinating, banning smoking will kill them.
Moro Hoshida didn't waste any time and took out two hundred-dollar bills from his pocket and threw them to Yujiang.
It was rare for Zhu Xingda to be generous, which surprised Yu Jiang.
Anyway, the fine was paid, so Zhu Xingda simply refilled his cigarette. He leaned on his chair and asked Yu Jiang casually: "Is there anyone you care about?"
Huh?
This question is not something Shuichi Akai could ask at all.
Yu Jiang sneered unceremoniously: "For people like us, don't we care most about ourselves?"
He doesn't care at all about describing himself as a selfish person. On the contrary, Yu Jiang enjoys the feeling of pulling Akai Shu into the water.
Aren't you an MI6 undercover? Aren't you a so-called good person? Everyone in the organization is the same, at least in the eyes of others.
Unexpectedly, Zhu Xingda did not refute: "You are right, we are all selfish people."
The smoke curled up, obscuring Zhu Xingda's expression, making it impossible for Yu Jiang to tell whether what he said was true or false.
"I have made mistakes in the past." Zhu Xingda confessed in a deep voice, "So I don't want to let the mistakes of the past happen again. There is no clear boundary between selfishness and selflessness. If it must be judged with secular eyes, then it doesn't matter to me. Being selfish is
Be selfish."
Ikue didn't expect to hear such words from Akai Shuichi. He said dryly: "No one can always make the right choice."
He didn't dare to think about whether the "making mistakes" Akai Shuichi mentioned was referring to the incident of abandoning him fourteen years ago, nor did he dare to think about what the future would be like.
But no matter what, Akai Shuichi was able to choose the latter between the mission and his sister without hesitation today, which was beyond Yu Jiang's expectations.
Maybe Akai Shuichi also has a gentle and responsible side, but his kindness never belongs to Yue.
But so what?
His name is not Akai Hideyoshi now, he is Karasuma Ikue, the sole heir to the organization's future, and in a sense he controls Akai Shuichi's life.
He is no longer what he used to be.
Akai Hideyoshi can never go back to the past.
"Ding——"
A sudden beep broke the dull atmosphere.
Yu Jiang took out his mobile phone and saw the email from Qingchuan Yu.
The message is very simple, just one sentence:
【Bourbon and I are leaving first, no need to wait for us.——Scotch】
Yu Jiang frowned slightly.
Qingchuan Yu would actually leave with Toru Amuro openly?
Although the whiskey team has been working together for two years, it is normal for them to be familiar with each other. But before today, Aokawa Yu had been careful and tried not to show his familiarity with Amuro Tohru, so much so that Reina Mizuno thought that Aokawa Yu and Amuro Toru
His relationship is the most ordinary in the entire whiskey group, far less powerful than that between him and Yu Jiang or Morohoshi.
There must be a reason behind these two undercover police officers suddenly becoming so abnormal.
Yujie remembers that this abnormality seems to have started at Aimeito Mall.
"What happened at Abedo Mall?" Yu Jiang looked at Zhu Xingda and asked.
Moro Hoshida has been with Yu Jiang and has no time to pay attention to the news. After hearing Yu Jiang's question, he turned on his mobile phone and browsed the latest news: "It seems that someone threatened the Metropolitan Police Department with a bomb, and the Ferris wheel explosion caused the death of a criminal policeman.
”
"Criminal police?" Yu Jiang discovered a blind spot, "Aren't these matters usually handled by the explosives disposal squad?"
"Maybe the incident happened so suddenly that the Metropolitan Police Department didn't have time to send professionals to the scene."
"Can you find the information about that criminal police officer?"
Zhu Xingda took a puff of his cigarette and said calmly: "Intelligence collection is not my job. You should ask Bourbon and Gere for this kind of thing."
Yu Jiang's breath was blocked in his throat, and he couldn't go up or down. He was so suffocated that he wanted to strangle Akai Shuichi's neck with his own hands.
"Are you worried about Bourbon?" Zhu Xingda suddenly asked.
Yu Jiang glanced at him sideways and said angrily: "Are you blind?"
Does he act like he's worried? It's almost doubtful.
But...
"You took a car with Scotland when you came back. How was he? Is there anything strange?"
Upon hearing this, Zhu Xingda glanced at Yu Jiang calmly, and then put out his half-smoked cigarette on the table: "Scotland is still like that, likes to meddle in other people's business. But to be weird... I think you are even weirder."

"Ah." Yu Jiang met Zhu Xingda's gaze, with a hint of coldness in his eyes, "I said I don't like deception, but it seems you have almost forgotten it."
