Of course, the various forces will not squat in front of the TV waiting to watch the Pandora Gem program.
So when they reacted belatedly, they were left to repeatedly study the option of recording and broadcasting.
"What day is it today? I actually have to come to attend a meeting." Walking into the room, Asakura asked with interest as he looked around at the layout of the room.
This is an ordinary conference room that can be found in any company of some size. The long square table takes up most of the space in the room.
Asakura walked to the first seat on the right side of the conference table and sat down, which was left tacitly by the cadres who had already taken their seats. Opposite him, on the upper left side, sat the current leader of the organization— —Rum.
The left and right sides of the conference table were clearly divided, with members belonging to Brandy and Rum's command sitting on each side.
Judging from the faces, there were obviously more familiar cadres on Brandy's side than on the other side.
"Ah, you actually sat across from me. It seems like you have a high opinion of that guy."
After sitting down, seeing that the boss had not yet appeared, Asakura turned his eyes to Rum's side, where Gin was sitting.
Gin made no reply to his provocation - he had no intention of supporting Rum, and sitting there merely showed that he now belonged to the underground part of the organization.
Even though he was dissatisfied with Rum, the organization's loyal dog never liked to take things personally in formal situations.
"I'm so envious. All I can see is gin, and you don't even look at me sitting here." Bellmode was also there. She sat next to Asakura Makoto, but she wanted to sit across from her and add some brandy. There was some trouble, but it was a pity that Gin was there. For the sake of the balance within the organization, she could only stay on this side.
Asakura ignored Belmod who had entered the cadre state, and glanced past her to look behind her.
Bourbon...Okay, look no further, a public secret meeting.
Toru Amuro, who took credit for capturing Shuichi Akai during the British operation, and coupled with his hard work over the past few years, finally slipped into the periphery of the core power of the organization and became qualified to appear in meetings of this level.
"What about the issue?"
Withdrawing his gaze, Asakura looked at Gin who was diagonally opposite, completely ignoring Rum who was staring at him from the opposite side.
"Hey, someone is craving for your attention." Belmode held his chin and said in a voice that was just right for the entire conference room to hear clearly, "Although he was your defeat before, he can't You can’t turn a blind eye.”
Gonghuo fits her character who is afraid of chaos in the world. Since Rum returned from overseas, these two powerful cadres have not officially met. Now, this kind of confrontation scene is what Bellmode has been looking forward to for a long time.
Come on, I want to see blood flowing here. Under her mysterious appearance, there is such eager expectation hidden.
"The defeated generals and so on are all colleagues working hard for the same goal." Asakura Shinya replied in a similar voice, which could be heard in the entire conference room, "I ignored him not because of his lack of ability, but because I thought he was tall. He usually has to sit among us, which is a little bit of an eyesore."
As soon as these words came out, the attention of everyone in the room was consciously or unconsciously focused on the head of the long table - indeed, the painting style of Rum and the other three people was quite inconsistent.
Listening to Asakura's true sarcasm, Rum didn't feel the slightest bit angry.
"It's been so long since I last saw you, and you're still so sharp-tongued."
He squeezed out a smile from his mouth, his expression was like seeing a child he hadn't seen for many years. Brandy seized the opportunity to exile him. After countless days and nights of tossing and turning, he finally figured out a way to get along with Brandy - take out the lead. With his seniority in joining the organization, no matter what the other party does, he treats it with the attitude of a senior...
This can be considered a different kind of poker face.
"You haven't changed much either. I thought everyone knew that every step of the way leads to wisdom." Asakura stood up and walked behind Rum.
This action made the two forces on the scene at war with each other.
Rum stood still, he didn't think Brandy would take action against him on this occasion.
"If you want to threaten me, you can choose a more suitable one..."
Before the words could be spoken, Rum's neck was caught with an elbow from behind. The arms tightened instantly and there was a feeling of nausea in his throat. After a while, it became difficult for him to breathe.
Do you really want to kill me?
Rum, who gradually felt suffocated, did not dare to bet his hope of survival on Brandy's stopping, and immediately started struggling violently.
However, as soon as he struggled, Asakura Makoto let go and retreated, raising his hands in front of everyone who had left their seats to indicate that he had done nothing.
"Everyone sit back!"
Gin scolded and drank both sides, who were filled with the smell of gunpowder, back to their original positions.
"Let's get down to business. What's the topic?" Asakura Zhen's raised hands clapped twice, drawing everyone's attention to the business.
Rum coughed twice to relieve his newly tightened throat.
After this battle, his hard-fought calm demeanor came to an end not long after. He glared at Asakura Makoto with hatred, and then began to explain the purpose of this meeting.
He knew that he was already in a weak position. Although Brandy's sudden attack was quick, it was nothing to Gin who was sitting next to him. Ginjiu did not stop him immediately, but waited until Brandy let go before he scolded Gin who was about to make a move. Everyone, this situation has explained his attitude - I am sitting here out of duty, and I am happy to watch you die.
"That legendary gem, Pandora, has appeared."
"The purpose this time is to seize that priceless gem."
Rumm projected a video of the interview on the screen.
Not many people at the scene knew the effect of Pandora's Stone. When they heard this purpose, their faces showed more or less doubtful looks.
"This stone, combined with the corresponding method of use, can make people immortal." Asakura explained as he returned to his seat.
Rum glanced at Asakura Makoto and paused the video being played. At this moment, it happened to be a close-up of the beautiful female host. Pointing at the people here, he asked: "If I remember correctly, she is your subordinate." That Geel, the gem is very close to Chi Chi, why didn’t she take action?”
"So are you the kind of person who would tell secrets to subordinates who don't have enough authority to know?" Asakura crossed his hands and supported his chin, "I think this is not a good habit. Listen to me and change it."
At this time, he picked up the elder look that Rum had thrown away and advised him.
Rum choked.
"What's the follow-up, what should I do?" Asakura's attitude was as calm as a tutor listening to a student's defense. He just said that your paper is not good, go back and rewrite it.
"The collector who holds Pandora decided to hold a shogi open competition and give the gem as the prize for the winner."
When it came to shogi, Rum looked unhappy. He recalled Haneda Koji who caused his defeat countless times. If it hadn't been for that shogi player, he wouldn't have been punished for leaking the identity information of the boss.
