- It should be that when Watanuki Yiichi buried the items, he was afraid that he would forget the specific location of the items because of his old age, so he threw a cosmos here as a guide for himself.
While thinking instinctively, Subaru Okiya squatted down, picked a very narrow area according to the place pointed by Uzo, excavated carefully, and placed the excavated soil next to it in order.
Not long after digging, he suddenly felt the tip of the shovel hit something hard.
Okiya Subaru was startled. He put the soil and folding shovel aside and dug with his hands instead, so as not to damage objects that could be used as a threat.
Under the slightly moist soil, a strange-shaped object was quickly revealed. The whole thing looked like a round cavity, with dirty impurities attached to it, and a faint white color could be seen in the exposed area.
"...?!"
Okiya Subaru looked at it for a few times in confusion, his movements suddenly froze, and his heart started beating violently.
He suddenly understood what he had dug out. Dried eye holes, a collapsed nose - it was half a face that was so rotten that some of the bones were exposed. It looked like a woman, with dyed hair tangled and covered in
The side of his face was stained with dirt, dirty and scary.
It is the instinct of most people to feel fear and disgust towards the corpses of the same kind.
While cold sweat broke out on Okiya Subaru's palms, he instinctively wanted to retreat.
However, before he stood up, a hand suddenly placed on the back of his neck, interrupting his escape plan.
——Uzuo squatted down next to him at some point, like an ethereal wraith with a sinister air. The hand on his neck was also like a sinister snake, crawling with traces of venom.
, and finally pinched his artery with her fingertips, and pressed him firmly with her palms, making him look into the empty eye sockets on the ground.
"I am a very trusting and caring person, so I hope that my subordinates can repay me with the same loyalty." Jiang Xia turned to look at Subaru Okiya and recalled the common process on TV when big bosses recruit their underlings.
Start talking nonsense and pretend to give a stick and then a date:
"I looked at your past resume, and it seems that you don't like killing people. It shows that we share the same goals - that kind of atrocities without any sense of beauty are simply a desecration of life."
"..."
Okiya Subaru was forced to look lovingly at a dead corpse. He thought of Usa's words just now, and then thought about how he was sitting and drinking tea with Shuichi Akai a few hours ago, and for a moment he didn't know if he was going to be buried side by side.
this.
But after all, he was still young and had a strong desire to survive. He quickly smiled and maintained his composure: "...I am honored to have the same taste as you."
"..." Jiang Xia secretly nodded. It's good. Although the new little brother looks a little weak, he finally didn't kneel down and say anything like "spare me, I have an old man and a young man" to ruin the atmosphere.
Lines.
He let go of his hand and turned his head to glance at the ghost.
The ghosts shook their heads at him in disappointment.
——There is still no hidden murderous aura nearby.
"..." When I was tearing off my disguise in the cafe just now, I didn't detect Shuichi Akai around me, so I could barely interpret it as "the way of tearing off my face was too gentle to inspire murderous intent."
But now, he looks like he wants to bury the person on the spot, but still doesn't...
Jiang Xia glanced at the new boy next to him with complicated emotions and withdrew his hand.
No one continued to hold Okiya Subaru down, but he still didn't dare to get up and froze in place, staring at the corpse on the ground.
"Okay, bury it back." Uzuo patted the dust off his hands and said in a brisk tone, "As a gift to celebrate our reunion - make good use of this information. This is to make Yiichi Watanuki disappear from society.
The key."
Okiya Subaru: "..."
He moved like a rusty machine, slowly shoveling and filling the soil in order, restoring the small hole he dug.
During this mechanized movement, Okiya Subaru suddenly remembered the few words he heard about Uzo before.
——Uzo rarely kills people with his own hands. But the targets he targets always end up dying inexplicably one after another, or become violent and impulsive, killing others, leading to a miserable situation worse than death. I heard that
, even the equally astute cadres cannot escape his clutches.
After all, we are discussing the gossip of ruthless cadres. No one dares to be too aboveboard. Things about Uzuo are also spread in a single line in the form of "I tell you a secret, but you must not tell others." The rumors are specific.
The origin has been difficult to verify. A more reliable theory is that it came from a cadre who had a competitive relationship with Uzuo, so he was unfortunately targeted by Uzuo, and then fought with Uzuo in a battle of wits and courage, and escaped bravely several times...
…
Subaru Okiya felt that the pores in his body were exuding a chill of fear - even such a powerful cadre regarded Usa as a tiger and a wolf, but just now he actually felt that Usa was a good person from the peace faction.
——Although the fact that Uzuo led him to find the female corpse can also be explained as "As soon as Miguanyi buried the body, Uzuo happened to be passing by and saw it."
But no matter how you think about it, this is too much of a coincidence.
Compared with the vague answer of "Uzzo is lucky", combined with Uzzo's reputation, there is obviously another more reliable explanation.
——The reason why Watanuki Yiichi wanted to kill this woman underground was because he was unknowingly influenced by Uzo.
Thinking of this, Subaru Okiya realized more and more that he had misunderstood just now.
It turns out that in Uzo's dictionary, the extended meaning of "killing people simply and brutally" is not "don't kill people", but "kill them in a fancy way so that you can make the most of everything".
"..."
Thinking of this, Subaru Okiya raised his wrist and held the frame of his glasses that had slipped due to cold sweat, feeling that he should change to a new pair of glasses.
Before, he thought that among the many reckless peripheral members, he could be regarded as a wise man who was good at understanding people and had some strategies. However, now...
…
Fear is not a pleasant experience, but it can indeed stimulate people's desire to survive and increase work efficiency several times.
Subaru Okiya quickly filled in the soil, filled the top layer of the soil he had just dug back into the top, compacted it, and then carefully covered it with the surrounding loose soil.
During the aftermath, he looked at Uzo's shadow on the ground next to him, and suddenly felt that the difficulty of his own survival had been raised to S level for no reason.
...In addition, when Uzo specifically mentioned "trust" just now, was he simply trying to express his expectations for his subordinates, or was he already aware that his new subordinate was changing in the direction of the second and fifth generation, so he was warning him? Or even...himself
Has also become Uzo’s target??
"..." No, no matter how talented you are, you still have to pay attention to the basic laws.
Uzo is indeed good at analyzing and inducing other people's psychology, but it is impossible for him to read minds.
