No wonder.
Originally, Kuroki Jin was still thinking that there was just a problem with a smuggling route. As for sending out Gin to investigate? But if this was the case, it would be natural. The person in charge was killed in front of the police. It would be strange if the police didn't go crazy and investigate. If they really dig something out, it will be an unnecessary blow to the organization.
That's why Gin was dispatched to find out the matter as soon as possible and then hand over the "murderer" and the line to the police to quell the anger over there, and the organization would hide in the darkness again.
"So everyone who has been in contact with this line during this period is suspected." Kuroki Ren guessed the result, and he was helpless because he knew the result. He just took over after the previous person in charge had an accident and waited for a few days until the new person in charge took office. It was really unfair.
"Everyone with knowledge is suspicious." Gin corrected him.
"Then this is too much." Kuroki Jin shook his head, "In addition to the trading department responsible for smuggling, there are people from the Intelligence Department, Operations Department, and Supervision Department following up... Oh, and there is also the Logistics Department. There is no way to investigate this. ah."
"This is my business." Gin said coldly, looking at Kuroki Jin who looked innocent. "Did you drink with Bourbon yesterday?"
"Ah? Yes." Kuroki Ren was a little stunned when he was asked. Then he remembered that when he came out, he saw Bourbon also going in. At that time, he didn't think anything was wrong, but now he thinks about what connection he has with this matter. Why was he called in for questioning?
"You are responsible for testing Bourbon." Gin quickly gave him the task. Kuroki Jin opened his mouth, half explaining and half asking: "But Bourbon should not know about this route if he is not active in Tokyo."
"What don't you know about the intelligence department?" Gin sneered. Kuroki Jin wanted to retort, "Then why don't you doubt Belmod?", but after thinking about it, Gin shot out the gun very quickly, and there was too much in it. Dirty, he rolled on the ground and stopped asking for his clothes. He swallowed these words wisely.
"You seem to want to say something." Gin looked at him.
"No, it's nothing. I just want to say, leave the bourbon to me." Kuroki Ren swallowed, "Is there anything else you need my help with?"
"No more, get out."
"Eh--"
After hurriedly waving goodbye to Vodka, Kuroki Ren drove his car and ran away. Halfway through, he received a call from Bourbon.
"Hello--"
"Ah, those bastards from the Supervision Department are so mad at me." Bourbon's energetic voice came from the phone port, and then his voice suddenly lowered: "... Well, Gin is not with you."
"Congratulations," Kuroki Ren paused, "If I had called you five minutes earlier, you would have received a gun fired at you from who knows when."
"You scared me to death." Bourbon was tired from hearing him gasping. "Whoever touches his gun at this time will be unlucky... By the way, why aren't you by his side?"
"After all, I am half a suspect." Kuroki Ren said helplessly, "Gin told me to get away, how dare I stay here any longer."
"It's not easy for you either." Followed Gin. "Then if you are free, let's work together. The Supervision Department wants me not to leave Tokyo within three days."
"Fortunately, I came back to relax for a few days after handling the case over there, otherwise I would have died."
After asking about Bourbon's location, Kuroki Jin continued: "Your transparent detective is still working. If you ask me to say that you have been fishing for three days and drying the nets for two days, it is better not to do it."
"You have to have a clear identity to pass the test." Bourbon chuckled, "How about you, Potter, have you ever thought about doing something?"
"Come on, I can't do anything because Gin is always on call." Kuroki Jin rolled his eyes, "Besides, I have a record at the police station, so I have to be careful when I go out."
"When you filed the record, you asked me to just delete it and it would be over. But you didn't delete it. What's the use of bothering you now."
"It can't be deleted." Kuroki Ren's voice rarely softened, "This is the only spiritual sustenance I have left. In fact, you can't find it if you don't check it carefully, so let's leave it at that."
"I thought your spiritual sustenance had always been Gin." Bourbon teased, and Kuroki was delighted when he heard this, and replied: "This seems to be okay. One day I will ask Gin if he wants to live forever. in my memory."
"Gin can't kill you."
"To each other, I will explain in advance that you asked me to ask."
"..."
While chatting about useless words, Kuroki quickly joined Bourbon. The two drank wine yesterday, and today they casually found a small restaurant to sit at the backmost seat and ordered a few dishes and a pot of tea.
Kuroki Ren hasn't eaten since morning. He was half drunk last night and his stomach had already started to feel uncomfortable. When the food came, he completely ignored the bourbon and ate until he was half full before pouring it for himself. Had a cup of hot tea.
"Didn't you have something to eat when you came out of the Inspection Department?" Bourbon looked at him like a starving ghost reincarnated, and was a little puzzled.
"As you said, I'm always on call, so I don't have time to eat." Kuroki Ren sighed, "What did those dogs ask you?"
"Gin is also within the scope of a dog's nose." Bourbon laughed, "I didn't ask anything. It was just where I was last night, who I was with, why I came back, and so on."
"I don't know which one of us is more responsible." Kuroki Jin sincerely sighed. Both of them were involved in this incident due to various coincidences. It is unlikely that the suspicion will be cleared before the incident is over.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. How about it? I heard that something big happened a few days ago?" Bourbon changed the subject.
"Do the people in your intelligence department have spies everywhere?" Kuroki Ren deliberately looked at him with wary eyes, "I don't know who can be trusted now."
"There's no need for my eyeliner." Bourbon narrowed his eyes. His pale golden hair contrasted with his wheat-colored skin, and he looked like he had the potential to be a magician. "You finally arranged a crime for Shindo Masami in public." Duan, after returning, the news spread throughout the Supervision Department and Operations Department."
"Then what does this intelligence department have to do with you?" Kuroki asked sincerely, and Bourbon laughed and tried to get over.
"I said, you are very interested in the new Shirley." Bourbon began to wink, "What, you have a crush on her? But it doesn't matter if you are attracted to her, you are about the same age, and her family background is better than yours. A little, but your parents have passed away. As for you, you don’t have to worry about anything if you have gin and wine to cover you..."
"Hey, hey, it's too far off topic." Kuroki Jin rolled his eyes at him, "Gin asked me to go, that's all. Don't think too much, and don't spread rumors. Gin can peel off my skin if you hear it." .”
"There is no explicit prohibition on dating in the organization." Bourbon retorted.
"So you're in an upright 'love'?" Kuroki Jin pronounced the last word very seriously.
The two stared at each other tit-for-tat, and after a few seconds, they glanced away in no particular order, looking for a random topic to talk about.
