Despite all the difficulties, the task ordered by the boss must still be completed.
Kuroki yawned and parked the car at the entrance of the airport. He reached out and felt the temperature outside, which was still scorching hot even though it was already autumn. He also felt the cool and comfortable temperature in the car, and decided to take a taxi. Even if you die, you won’t get out of the car.
He will wait in the car! Shirley can definitely find that by herself!
Yesterday, he rushed home and raced against time. He didn't sleep for long when he was woken up by the notification tone of Vodka's email. In order to avoid missing the news about Gin, he turned on the ringtone very loudly. As a result, he was so frightened that he couldn't fall asleep, so he had to I read the information on Shirley that was sent from beginning to end.
As a person who has not yet reached the age of 18 and has been studying abroad under the arrangement of the organization. He has received a code name without any major achievements, allowing the boss to use gin to pick him up at the airport. As soon as he comes back, he will serve as the deputy director of the Tokyo Scientific Research Department. , the woman who is directly responsible for one of the organization's most important researches, the so-called "Crippled Detective", who doesn't sound like the name of a drug at first sight - Kuroki Jin has no interest in her at all. In his eyes, this was an existence that would disturb his sweet dreams when he arrived at an untimely time.
But it was clear someone was interested in him.
Kuromu Ren had been drowsy in the car for an unknown period of time. He was suddenly awakened by the "dong dong" knocking on the car window. When he turned around, he saw an expressionless face pressed against the car window, a few steps away from Kuro Muren's car window. The face is no more than ten centimeters - of course there is glass in between.
The startled Kuroki pressed the switch to open half of the car window. The hot air outside instantly clashed with the air conditioning inside the car, and he frowned in discomfort.
Perhaps because Kuroki opened the window, or perhaps because of the sudden air-conditioning in the car, the woman took half a step back, still expressionless.
"What's the matter, Miss?" Kuroki Ren was confused and didn't recognize her and Shirley. As soon as he finished speaking, he recognized that this was the person he wanted to pick up.
"Shirley?"
"Um."
"Get in the car." Kuroki Ren curled his lips, complaining in his heart that this woman looked too cold, but he pressed the switch to open the rear door.
After Shirley sat down and fastened her seat belt, Kuroki put on sunglasses to cover half of her face to block the sun, stepped on the accelerator and left the airport parking lot.
The car was extremely silent. After Kuroki finished starting and bypassed the cars and crowds and finally breathed a sigh of relief, he realized that the atmosphere in the car was really awkward. He was a person who didn't like the weird and silent atmosphere, so he took the initiative and said: "I will send you directly back to the scientific research department."
"Um."
The voice that was still neither salty nor bland seemed to be telling that Kuroki Jin had disturbed the silence, which made him extremely frustrated and felt even more uncomfortable than Gin. He finally found someone who was even colder and more talkative than Gin. There are fewer people.
Haneda Airport is about 30 kilometers away from the R011 base. No matter how fast he drove for an hour and a half, he still wouldn't be able to reach his destination. The car was a boring gourd, so in the end, Kuroki Jin turned on the car radio and listened to the music out of boredom.
With the background music of Okino Yoko, Kuroki Jin finally got rid of the uncomfortable silence. He could hum a few lines as the music reached its climax, attracting the attention of the back row every time.
In fact, Shirley had some doubts about the person who came to pick her up. When she got in the car, she wanted to ask Kuroki Jin why it wasn't Gin who came here, but she was interrupted by Kuo Mu Jin's too crisp start and bit her tongue. , waiting for her to recover and then asking again would not be the expected [natural] inquiry at all.
But when she saw Kuroki Jin swaying left and right along with the music and humming from time to time, her face was expressionless and she still complained about this person in her heart:
Is he reliable?
Under the suspicion of Shirley, who was unaware of Kuroki Ren, the car finally drove into the area where Base No. 1 is located. It is an abandoned hospital. The appearance looks very desolate. You need to enter the underground from the semi-abandoned factory opposite. Only after security check can the car be parked in the parking lot, and after a few more checks can one enter the real base.
Kuroki took Shirley in. Because he was wearing large sunglasses that covered half of his face, Kuroki, who was not familiar with the people here, was not recognized, even though he was dressed in black. He stood out among all the white coats.
After swiping the ID card, the elevator went straight down to the second underground floor, which is their office area and living area.
He found the office with the code name [Vanilla Liquor] and knocked on the door. After getting permission from the person inside, Kuroki Jin opened the door. He heard Marschino, who was sitting on a chair in front of the computer and had no idea what to do. One question: "What's going on?"
"It's me." Kuroki Ren had met Vanilla Wine several times, always when he came to the scientific research department to pick up specific medicines or for a general physical examination. At that time, he was not S-level.
"...Port wine?" Vanilla Wine identified Kuroki Ren, whose face was half covered, and only recognized it after the latter reluctantly took off his sunglasses, "Are you here to urge that potion that suddenly increased investment in research and development? Didn’t I just tell you last week that I would be the first to notify you if there is any news?”
"No..." Kuroki Jin was about to explain when he was interrupted by Vanilla Wine: "I know it was not my intention to know that you came here. It must have been Gin who urged you. He has so many ways to kill, why should he be obsessed with this poison? .”
"I said..." Kuroki Ren was speechless at this person who didn't listen to what he had to say. Just as he was about to explain that he didn't come because of the potion but as a gift, his words were interrupted again:
"APTX4869 is not poison." Shirley, who had been shielded by Kuromu Ren and not seen by Vanilla Wine, suddenly spoke, startling Kuro Muren and also Vanilla Wine.
"who?"
Kuroki looked at this woman who could only hum in surprise, and took a step aside to let Vanilla Wine see Sherry behind him, and then explained: "I'm here to see someone off, Sherry, and I'm joining scientific research today. department."
Shirley nodded slightly with an expressionless face, which was regarded as saying hello to Vanilla Wine, although the latter may not have realized it.
"Is this the genius who came back from abroad?" Perhaps it was because of the dissatisfaction between people in the same profession. Vanilla Wine did not approve of Sherry who was parachuted back to China: "I heard Hine mention it yesterday and thought he was joking. "Mika is the branch director of the Tokyo Scientific Research Department and the person in charge of this base.
Shirley didn't speak, and the room was silent for a few seconds before she heard Vanilla Wine's sneer, and then he slapped a card on the table.
"If you lose your ID card, remember to go to the Logistics Department to get a replacement. Since you have been appointed to be mainly responsible for APTX4869, don't just meddle in other things, even if you are also a deputy minister." Vanilla Wine is also a deputy minister, and this scientific research Counting Shirley, there are three deputy ministers in the department. "After you swipe your ID card on the computer in the public area, you will get all the information you can check about the base and its situation. If you go into a prohibited place, I won't care if you lose your life. I will Let's go find your office and laboratory." He waved his hands to drive people away, but even Kuroki Jin planned to drive them away too.
Kuroki Ren was fine. He watched Shirley put away the ID card, said goodbye to Vanilla Wine naturally and closed the door of his office. "That's the public area over there. I'll leave after my mission is completed." He said Said to Shirley.
"Well, thank you." It seemed that she was not affected by the bad words of vanilla wine. Shirley thanked her and walked towards the public area, but her expression of thanks made Kuroki Jin not feel the slightest gratitude.
"Weird person..." Kuroki Jin shook his head, took out his mobile phone and sent an email to Gin to tell others that it had been delivered, but he received an order from Gin to let him stay here for a few days.
"Why Gin?" Kuroki Jin called and asked in a face-to-face manner, "I have delivered the person safely. The atmosphere here is so weird that I really don't want to stay any longer. Do you want to get something? I can do it." You can come back here and get it at any time when you call..."
Even Ginjiu couldn't find a way to interrupt for a while. "Shut up" silenced Kuroki Ren before he started to say: "I asked you to stay there for a few days so that you can take care of Shirley. If you have any questions, let me know." Report." After saying that, Heimuren immediately hung up the phone without giving him time to answer the call.
"...What, another boring mission like this." Kuroki Jin looked at the lighted up screen and muttered a few words. He didn't dare to call Gin back, so he had to follow Gin's instructions and swipe with his ID card. I opened an unoccupied room near the rest area, changed the room information to [Login], and lay down on the bed.
On the wall outside the door, the code name of [Port Wine] lights up.
