At night.
Asakura Makoto returns home.
He closed the door, casually hung his coat on the coat rack in the entrance, walked through the living room into the open kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, took a can of cold bitter coffee from it and threw it towards the sofa in the living room——
"Let me know in advance if you are coming to visit. It will give me time to prepare."
Asakura complained without looking back, and then rummaged through the refrigerator for the remaining ingredients.
"What to eat?" he asked.
"No need." Gin raised his hand to catch the flying coffee can and held it in his hand. He pulled the ring open with a "Peng" sound, "I remember your cooking skills are not very good."
This uninvited man evaluated Asakura Makoto in a straightforward tone.
"Although it's not great, it's okay to open a can and heat the semi-finished product."
Asakura took a can of soda, closed the refrigerator door, then walked all the way to the single sofa diagonally opposite the gin and sat down, pulled the tab and took a big sip.
Carbon dioxide surged from his stomach, and Asakura burped. After regaining his breath, he complained: "I thought you were going to knock my sap on the corridor, but I didn't expect you to sneak in directly. You don't regard this place as my home at all."
"Humph." Gin sneered, "Aren't you here to see me now?"
He didn't squat at Brandy's house in advance. In fact, it was strange for a person like Brandy to have a fixed address. Only in this area of Tokyo, openly, secretly, luxurious, dilapidated, and all kinds of places directly or indirectly belonged to His home approaches triple digits.
Some are affiliated with legitimate companies, some belong to adventurers who live abroad all year round, and some are even temporary rentals for high school students.
In short, in the island country's household registration system, which is full of loopholes, coupled with the ability of a cross-dressing expert, it is really easy to find a hiding place that does not arouse suspicion.
It would be difficult for people who don't know Brandy's itinerary to find Brandy's location in these houses. After all, the purpose of this method is to enhance concealment, but Gin does not need to find out where he is, he only needs to let Brandy know that he is looking for That's it for him.
In order to ensure the reliability of these hiding places, no matter what method is used, Brandy will always know the situation here. When he sees Gin appearing in them, he will naturally come to find them himself if he knows the purpose of his visit.
In case Brandy didn't come, it wouldn't be a hurry to find him with the Berta in hand.
"Akai Shuichi's affairs are not out of my control. There are five members of their family. Akai Shuichi is the eldest son. The head of the family, Akai Mutake, is dead. His wife, Akai Mari, and their third daughter, Sera Masumi, seem to have noticed someone watching around them. , so he has been running away, but it doesn’t matter, everything is under control now, the second son Haneda Hideyoshi, the adopted son of the Haneda family, is currently a celebrity in the shogi world."
Listen to Asakura Makoto finish telling you the information about Brandy.
"As expected of you, the speed of the intelligence investigation really surprised me." Gin was surprised, but the scrutiny behind his words was palpable.
Not long after Akai Shuichi's undercover identity was revealed, Asakura Shin had a clear picture of his family situation.
This speed...
"Thank you for the compliment." Asakura shook the jar, listening to the sound of gas sizzling in it, and turned a blind eye to Gin's suspicion that he already knew Akai Shuichi's undercover identity.
"..."
Gin's eyes focused. He didn't know whether Brandy's words meant that he had indeed known that Akai Shuichi was an undercover agent for a long time, or whether he was really complacent about his intelligence network.
Regardless of the possibility, the problem at hand is that it is obvious that Brandy cannot be honest with him about these contents.
"After hanging out with Belmod for a while, your style is becoming more and more similar to hers."
Mysterious and pretentious, Gin doesn't like these elements.
"Ah, that's not all. In fact, at first I had a vague feeling that there was something wrong with Shuichi Akai. Who made him suddenly appear next to Miyano Akemi like he jumped out of a stone?"
Asakura put the soda can on the coffee table, leaned back and sunk into the sofa.
"It's just that he is really powerful and hid it very well. I didn't catch any obvious clues."
Gin listened patiently to Asakura's story. There was nothing wrong with praising Akai Shuichi's strength in front of him. Even if he was a traitor, he could not change his recognition of Akai Shuichi's ability.
In Akai Shuichi, Gin is more angry at being fooled and fearful that his own strength may not be as good as the former's hatred of traitors. Such emotions are like a heavy mountain, which makes him tirelessly pursue the original history. The traces of Akai Shuichi seemed to be completely suppressed when they met again.
"It's a pity that he did something stupid." Asakura continued, "He actually had true feelings for Miyano Akemi. His breakup with Miyano Akemi seemed to be getting rid of useless baggage, but in fact it was because he was afraid of his own identity The exposure implicated the woman.”
】
It is indeed a stupid thing, Gin nodded secretly. Emotions can make people lose control unconsciously, and even the shrewdest guy will become a fool after being exposed to this.
"What's even more stupid is that the Miyano Akemi he fell in love with is just a puppet for me to control. When it came to the choice between Shirley and her boyfriend, she chose the former without hesitation, our Akai When Mr. Shuichi is enjoying his relationship, he may not realize that the people around him are constantly testing his true identity."
"That woman, just her?"
Weak, childish, and stupid, this is Gin's impression of Miyano Akemi. Such a person can actually deceive Akai Shuichi and make him give up?
If this is the case, then he has to admit that he overestimated Shuichi Akai.
"After all, Miyano Akemi is not weak. She has been trying to escape from the organization with her sister all day long, but she is still alive and well. You know, she didn't have Shirley's amulet a few years ago." Asakura sneered, like It was a mockery of Miyano's innocent thoughts, "Although that woman is weak and weak, she is actually very good at reading people's faces."
In the original history, she saw through Akai Shuichi's identity, and was able to deceive him by pretending not to know anything. In this case, either Akai Shuichi was really full of flaws, or Miyano Akemi's abilities were not as good as hers. Acting so harmless.
"Looking at people's faces, this is in line with her status." A strong person never needs to look at people's faces, and Gin is very confident in this.
"The result is not bad. Miyano Akemi, who discovered Akai Shuichi's identity, must take at least 30% of the credit for this FBI annihilation operation."
Of course, the exposure of the FBI was not due to Akemi Miyano. It came from the efforts of Toru Amuro. Asakura had previously asked Toru Amuro to investigate the FBI, which came in handy here.
It's okay not to mention the FBI's annihilation operation, but the mention of gin piqued my interest.
For such an action, Gin himself is completely happy to see it happen. He can fly a helicopter to bomb Tokyo Tower. He really can't turn a blind eye to the rats hiding in front of him. If it weren't for Brandy's suppression, he might have found a way to launch a similar action.
"Speaking of which, haven't you always held the view of having as little direct conflict with official violent institutions as possible? How could you be so public about it?"
He knew very well that the FBI's revenge was not so easy to swallow, and he somewhat wanted to know what the purpose of Brandy's actions was.
"Of course I already have a solution to this." Asakura took out his mobile phone and pointed the screen at Gin so that he could see the time clearly, "But, I have to give Rum some test questions. Come on. Test his elasticity.”
"What a pity, I still can't control my selfishness."
His face was expressionless, and his words were full of regret.
