"Long time no see, Brother Shuichi."
On the vacation beach, under the umbrella next to the two Baihe sisters, a dark-skinned man with a strong build was lying.
The man was wearing beach shorts and shirtless, with his hands behind his head, a black hat on his head, and sunglasses on his eyes. He looked to be about twenty years old, almost the same age as Bai Hejing.
In front of the man in sunglasses, stood a man with a fair complexion and who was much thinner in comparison.
The man is also wearing beach pants and a yellow short-sleeved jacket on his upper body. His hair is a little messy. He looks one or two years younger than the man in sunglasses, and he looks frail.
"Well, it's true that we haven't seen each other for seven years, and you have grown up, Hideyoshi."
Glancing at his younger brother, Akai Shuichi said calmly.
"Are you already in your third year of high school this year?"
"Um."
Hideyoshi nodded, then reached out and pulled out a little girl who had been hiding behind him, and said softly:
"Come on, let's say hello first? Today is a very meaningful first meeting, right?"
This is a little girl wearing a children's swimsuit. She looks to be six or seven years old. Her appearance is somewhat similar to Akai Shuichi. After being pulled out from behind by Hideyoshi, she still hugged his thigh and looked at Akai timidly. Xiuyi said:
"Hello, I'm really pure..."
"Huh? Who is this little girl?" Akai Shuichi looked the little girl up and down and frowned subconsciously.
His reaction scared the already timid little girl Masumi back behind Hideyoshi.
"It's my sister. I've sent photos before, right?" Hideyoshi reminded.
"Ah, that seems to be the case." Akai Shuichi nodded slightly, "I remember when I came to the United States seven years ago, my mother seemed to be pregnant..."
"Really..."
Feeling helpless at Akai Shuichi's careless attitude, Hideyoshi shook his head, then looked around again, and asked doubtfully:
"By the way, mother Mary? Didn't she pick you up at your brother's hotel first? Why isn't she here?"
"Oh, it's nothing, it's just that my mother and I had a little conflict in the hotel..."
Seeing Hideyoshi asking about this, Akai Shuichi suddenly sat up and while speaking, he raised his hand to take off the sunglasses from his face.
Under his sunglasses, there was an obvious bruise on his left eye.
"Then I received a blow from her hand, which made my eyes look like this now, but you don't have to worry..."
With that said, Akai Shuichi put on his sunglasses again, looked at Hideyoshi, and said with a slightly proud tone:
"After all, I punched her two or three times. I guess mom is looking for ice cubes somewhere right now..."
"It's your head that really needs ice."
Suddenly, a voice suddenly sounded behind Akai Shuichi. He looked back and found that his mother, Akai Mari, had suddenly appeared behind him at some point.
Mary was also wearing a swimsuit and a sun hat, with her hands on her hips, looking at Akai Shuichi expressionlessly.
"It was you who said you wanted to study in the United States, so I allowed you to come and study abroad. I didn't expect you to use this as an excuse to secretly investigate the truth about your father's incident...
Are you talking about joining the FBI after graduating from college? Where did you come from to be such a hot-blooded, childish brat? "
Facing his mother's ridicule, Shuichi Akai lay back on the beach chair again and said leisurely:
"I have already obtained the citizenship and green card of the United States. I only need to accumulate three more years of work experience, and then pass their training and exams, and everything will be fine."
"What about living expenses? What are you going to do? You don't think I will pay to support someone who says such stupid things, do you?" Mary asked with a slightly higher tone.
"You don't need to worry about this. I have already found a job with a fairly good salary. I can support myself with this job before joining the FBI."
Akai Shuichi replied again, with the attitude of "I have arranged everything, so don't bother yourself."
"Really..."
Seeing his appearance, Mary couldn't help but harden her fist again. She really wanted to knock this traitor out and take him back.
But in the end, she let go and sighed helplessly.
"It's rare that I even took a trip to San Francisco to take you back... Forget it, just lie here and calm down your heated brain, and think carefully about what your dad said back then. He... "
As soon as she said this, Mary suddenly paused because she was keenly aware that a gaze from nearby suddenly struck her very directly.
This look came from under the parasol next to a few people. Mary immediately turned around and saw that it was a young silver-haired woman.
【FBI? 】
Bai He lay quietly on the beach chair, holding a book in his hand, and the two looked at each other at this moment.
[It’s really sharp. 】
"Xiaoying, let's go. I'll take you to buy some food first."
"Great!"
Instantly looking away, Bai Hejing immediately stood up, put down the book, and led Bai Heying towards Hai Zhijia in the back.
Mary stood there, watching Bai Hejing walk away, and then withdrew her gaze.
【That girl...】
Without thinking too much, Mary glanced at Akai Shuichi again, probably because she was afraid that she would be tempted to deal with him again, so she turned around and walked towards the parasol on the other side.
"Anyway, your dad's matter is not as simple as you think. Don't do anything stupid..."
Mary didn't want to say anything else.
Her visit to San Francisco this time was originally to carry out a special mission from MI6.
According to the information obtained from the intelligence team, there happened to be a high-level cadre in the mysterious black organization that she had been tracking down in the past few years who seemed to want to leave the organization and was seeking asylum from MI6.
Mary originally came to San Francisco as the contact person for this operation. Unexpectedly, as soon as she got on the plane, the MI6 informant received information that this high-level cadre who wanted to defect had been dealt with internally by the black organization.
Coincidentally, at this time, she also received a contact from her eldest son, saying that he wanted to join the FBI to investigate the truth about his father's disappearance.
Mary, who was worried that he would encounter danger in the future, took a leave of absence from London, called Hideyoshi and Masumi, and came to San Francisco together to try to persuade her rebellious son to change his mind...
Of course, looking at it now, she didn’t succeed...
"You should tell your mother this sentence yourself."
With his hands behind his head, Akai Shuichi heard Mary's words and whispered in a voice that only he could hear:
"Haven't you also been looking for dad's whereabouts over the years..."
