Not to mention how Belmod rolled his eyes after hearing Asakura's answer, let's look at Akai Shuichi first.
After decisively cutting off the red cord, he freed the unconscious Kamel from the restraints of the chair.
After checking Kamel's physical condition and confirming that he was fine, Shuichi Akai breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he found a suitable corner, pushed Kamel over and settled him down, then turned towards the direction from which the sound came, and asked, "So, what are you trying to do with this call? Are you looking for fun?"
While talking, Akai Shuichi emphasized in his heart that no matter what the other party said next, he could not be involved in Brandy's pace.
For him, this is a rare opportunity to communicate directly with Brandy. Ever since they came here, they have been led by the organization. Now, this call, no matter what the other person said, can allow him to peek behind the scenes of Operation Brandy. clues.
"No, I just want to give you a reminder." Asakura cleared his throat, "Get ready for the next bomb disposal performance."
"I have a hostage here waiting for you to rescue."
Having said this, he walked up to Bermod and Sera Masumi, stretched out the microphone in his hand and put it to the tortured but stubborn girl's mouth.
"Come and say hello to your dear big brother."
Sera Masumi looked at the microphone, glared at Asakura Makoto with disdain, and turned his head to the side.
Seeing her move like this, Asakura took his hand back slowly: "Okay, I think she means-"
At this point, the benefit of being able to change his voice became apparent - he imitated Sera's voice perfectly.
"Brother, go away quickly and leave me alone!"
Asakura paused for a moment, seemingly watching Akai Shuichi's expression on the screen. After a moment, he continued to imitate: "Don't leave me, I'm so scared."
"Hmm... To be honest, this sentence is not something she would say. After all, her character should be relatively strong, right?"
Akai Shuichi listened calmly to Brandy's provocation. At this moment, even though he had repeatedly emphasized in his heart not to step into the other party's verbal trap, the familiar voice in his ears still made him unable to help but feel anger rising in his chest.
"You might as well explain it clearly, what do you want to do?" He adjusted his mood in an instant and asked seemingly indifferently.
"Ah..." Asakura sighed boredly, "It's really interesting to chat with a guy like you, so I'll just tell you."
"I thought you didn't have enough fun dismantling the bomb just now, so I prepared a second one for you. How about playing with it again? By the way, the winning prize is Sera."
"..." Akai Shuichi responded with a cold expression and said nothing.
"Aren't you going to give me some reaction?"
"Do I need to react to you?" Akai Shuichi asked, "You don't think that I will obey your words if Sera is in your hands."
He knows very well that the organization will not be moved by the enemy kneeling down and crying, and Brandy will not be soft-hearted because of the opponent's show of weakness. Instead of begging to let Serang go, he can show his strength and adopt a life-or-death attitude to let Brandy win. Consider negotiating with him out of concern for losses.
"Ah, of course I know this." Asakura glanced at Sera Masumi not far away, took two steps back and sat down, "After all, you are just like Gin, a cold-hearted guy, how can you do this? It’s really impossible to get rid of your cousin immediately after taking advantage of her. It’s really impossible to do that for your own sister.”
At this moment, Akai Shuichi suddenly felt that it was a good thing not to know the biological relationship between Miyano Akemi and himself. It would at least allow him to develop a cold-blooded character and gain some initiative here.
"But I still want to take a gamble." The next second, Brandy's voice came again.
"I know you got to know me during your undercover period, and you know that I am not a womanizer but a kind-hearted person, and I cannot do anything to cruelly threaten a young lady. In order to make you pay more attention to it, I would like to remind you that in the organization There are quite a few perverted cadres, so I brought one here this time."
"Now let me see, he is only a few centimeters away from your sister. I think he is probably waiting for me to say "well, she is yours", etc... Not now, this is just a hypothesis, no Let you take action. "The second half of the sentence was obviously not meant for Akai Shuichi.
Here, Belmode had a puzzled expression. He glanced at the hand at his side, then put it on his chest: "?"
"......what are you up to?"
This is the third time Akai Shuichi has asked this question. Compared with the previous doubts and temptations, this time he obviously chose to face reality and compromise for the sake of his family, whose life and death are in each other's hands.
"What I want to do is that you can ask Kamel later. The reason why he is returned to you alive is because I want you to get some information from him."
[In view of the general environment,
After finishing speaking, Asakura's voice disappeared. After a while, it seemed that the ending was a bit abrupt.
"That's it." He added this sentence before cutting off contact.
When Asakura put down the phone, Bermod stood up from the sofa and looked at him with a particularly unkind look: "What is a perverted cadre?"
...
Akai Shuichi carried Kamel back to the temporary residence——
After arriving in a safe environment, Judy made the bed and assisted Shuichi Akai in placing Kamel on it.
Then the two stood at the head and side of the bed respectively.
Judy asked, "What's going on?"
"Nothing." Akai Shuichi confirmed Kamel's condition in a manner similar to an autopsy, trying to find any clues that the kidnapper might have left on him unintentionally.
When his hand touched his cheek, something strange came from his hand that shocked him.
"There is a foreign object in his mouth."
Akai Shuichi raised his head and glanced at Judy who was standing by the bed. The latter immediately stood aside to make room for him.
Then he lifted Kamel's upper body and leaned forward, letting his head hang naturally on his chest. He reached out his right hand and pinched his chin, and carefully opened his mouth.
Judy stepped forward and took out the foreign object in Kamel's mouth - a ball of white silk. She held it in her hand and was about to unfold it, but was snatched away by Akai Shuichi who was returning to Kamel.
The news from Kamel’s mouth refers to this!
"Is this?" Judy had never seen Akai Shuichi in such a hurry. Looking at his reaction, she knew that this was definitely something extremely important.
Ignoring the fact that there was Kamel's saliva on it, Akai Shuichi immediately unfolded the silk cloth, and there were words densely packed with waterproof paint inside. At first glance, there were hundreds of words.
"It's a letter of challenge."
After seeing the content clearly, the two people's eyebrows were gloomy. After a few breaths, Judy looked at Akai Shuichi: "What should I do?"
