A few days ago, in the corridor of the East Leaf Building of Clover Villa with no outsiders, Shirakawa Kiyoshi, who was disguised as Sato Miwako, raised his hands and pinched Shimazaki Kananko's cheeks, preventing her from shouting "Regel" in panic. "The attempt of this code name.
"Shhh."
Holding up the index finger of his right hand in front of his mouth, Shirakawa Qing approached Shimazaki Kananko with a smile and lowered his voice:
"Keep your voice down, it won't be good if others hear it, do you understand?"
"...Yes." Opening his mouth, Kananko Shimazaki forced himself to pronounce this syllable.
The distance between the two was extremely close at this time, and their eyes were only a few centimeters apart. Bai Heqing could clearly see the unconcealed fear in her eyes.
"Very good, I like obedient children best."
Suddenly he let go of Kananko Shimazaki's face and let her slide to the ground. Shirakawa Qing also squatted down and said with a smile:
"Then let's get down to business. Let's talk about it first. How did you lose your memory?"
"It's... by a mysterious organization."
Raising her hands to cover her pinched cheek, Shimazaki Kananko still knelt on the ground, lowered her head, and began to remember.
"There is a woman in this organization code-named Lilac. It was she who planned the terrorist attack at Clover Villa behind the scenes. Those terrorists were actually dispatched by her. I discovered their plan inadvertently. But she noticed it and knocked me unconscious before I could report it to the organization. When I woke up, I had lost my memory..."
"That's it, that's it."
Bai Heqing listened to her description and nodded thoughtfully.
"But I'm curious, why did Lilac just knock you out instead of killing you directly?"
"I don't know about this, but I guess..." After hesitating, Kananko Shimazaki said: "Maybe it's just like the list of organized members, because she also noticed the identities of me and Hiromichi Moriyama. Then It’s not yet time for them to plan their actions. If they kill me rashly, it might make Hiromichi Moriyama suspicious..."
"Hmm...don't you want to increase the variables before taking action? This explanation is also acceptable."
Bai Heqing seemed to accept her answer and continued to ask:
"Okay, then the next question is, this Lilac you are talking about, what does she look like?"
"I don't know. She has a mask on her face. Apart from the fact that she is a woman from her voice, I didn't find any other details that can be used to identify her identity..."
"Well, it seems that the other party is indeed very vigilant..."
Bai Heqing sighed lightly, a little regretful.
"Then let's move on to the next question. What is the deal between you and Hiromichi Moriyama and that mysterious organization?"
Bai Heqing's tone was particularly casual, as if he had asked a very ordinary question.
"We...huh?"
Shimazaki Kananko was stunned for a moment when he heard this. When he subconsciously wanted to answer, his brain suddenly reacted, and a chill instantly ran from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.
"What did you just...ask me?"
"Oh, let me ask you, what is the deal between you and Hiromichi Moriyama and that mysterious organization?" Bai Heqing repeated it patiently and in a calm tone.
【Why? Where did I show my flaws? 】
"Lord Regal, I didn't understand your question..."
Her body had begun to tremble uncontrollably. Kananko Shimazaki reluctantly met Shirakawa Kiyoshi's calm gaze, trying to cover herself.
"Hiromichi Moriyama and I have always been loyal to the organization and have never had any intention of betraying. This incident completely exceeded our predictions, but Hiromichi Moriyama has already done this... uh!"
Suddenly, Shirakawa Qing grabbed Shimazaki Kananko's neck, stood up slowly, and lifted her up bit by bit.
"Really, I've given you two chances, why don't you cherish it at all? No matter how good-tempered I am, I will still get angry..."
"Uh, I..."
Her feet gradually left the ground, and Shirakawa-ki held her neck against the wall. Kananko Shimazaki opened her mouth wide, and grabbed Shirakawa-kiyo's hand with all her strength. Her legs were straightened, and her delicate face had begun to turn red.
"Do you really think I can't guess it?"
Quietly looking at her painful look, Bai Heqing spoke slowly, with a cold tone.
"Such a large number of personnel, weapons and equipment can be hidden all over this artificial island without attracting anyone's attention. Putting aside the possibility that you and Hiromichi Moriyama are really stupid to the extreme, I think it’s the two of you who have reached some kind of cooperation with that mysterious organization, right?”
"I, we..."
"As for the purpose of cooperation, it's actually not difficult to imagine. Since you will allow them to carry out their terrorist attack plan on this island, it means that you have no memory of the organization's assets... What? You two also want to leave the organization?"
"No...we...please...forgive..."
The feeling of suffocation continued to rise, Shimazaki Kananko's eyes began to roll up uncontrollably, and the intensity of her body's struggle had reached a peak. If she continued to pinch her like this, Shirakawa Kiyoshi felt that he would have to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation on her.
Just when Kananko Shimazaki was wondering if he was going to be strangled to death like this today, Shirakawa Kiyoshi suddenly let go.
"Ahem! Ahem!"
She fell to the ground weakly. She covered her throat, coughed violently several times, and then began to breathe heavily.
"Is there anything wrong with my speculation just now?"
Bai Heqing squatted down again and looked at her almost exhausted with a smile.
"No, no."
Kananko Shimazaki shrank subconsciously and turned pale.
"I, we did secretly reach a deal with that mysterious organization, and we want to break away from the organization..."
When he said this, Kananko Shimazaki carefully raised his head and looked at the expression on Shirakawa Kiyo's face. After seeing that there was no reaction from him, he quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yes, honest people are welcome wherever they go."
Satisfied with her attitude, Bai Heqing smiled and nodded.
"So? How are you going to make this deal?"
"We helped them transport and hide those weapons to this island. In exchange, after the terrorist attack they planned is completed, they will use helicopters to carry us and leave the country directly..."
"Is it the helicopter on the roof of Beiye Building?"
"……yes."
"Everyone has his own plan. Unfortunately, Lilac chose to fall out in the end. If it weren't for your amnesia, you would have died together with Hiromichi Moriyama by now. It's really pitiful."
Shirakawa Qing shook his head slightly and sighed for Shimazaki Kananko.
"Despite this, the accounts between you and the organization still have to be settled."
