The atmosphere inside and outside the study room was immediately filled with joy.
Karasuma Renye burst out laughing without any image, and the wrinkles on her face knitted together.
But the next second, Karasuma Renye suddenly stopped all smiles, and her eyes became cold.
"I'm not asking for your opinion, Yu Jiang." He spoke slowly, looking at Yu Jiang without any emotion.
Yu Jiang raised his eyebrows slightly at an angle that Karasuma Renye couldn't see, but he respectfully replied: "Yes."
William Drake, the best student in this training camp, became a member of Yujiang from today on. However, due to Papet's "death" and Yu Jiang himself not having a formal organizational identity, the two of them should be considered non-staff members of the organization at the moment - the kind that don't even have a code name.
William Drake's personality seemed to have changed a lot. Whether he was around Karasuma Renye or Yue, he always had a low eyebrow and said nothing except in response.
The first time he saw William, Yu Jiang suddenly remembered a piece of news he heard a few years ago.
It is said that there was an accident at the research base in the UK at that time. A test subject survived a near-death experiment and backhandedly killed the researcher responsible for the last step.
Yujiang remembered that the organization didn't seem to deal with it immediately at the time. Later, he was busy with the whiskey team and didn't care about it anymore. Thinking about it now, William Drake was most likely the test subject at that time, and the horrific scars on his face should have been left in that test.
Yue bowed slightly to Renye Karasuma and left the study. Naturally, William Drake followed him step by step.
Karasuma Renye squinted her eyes and watched the study door slowly close.
He picked up the cold tea and drank half the cup slowly.
"Dudududu..."
Renye Karasuma used the landline on the table to make a call to Italy, thousands of kilometers away.
A few seconds later, the transoceanic call was connected, and a familiar old voice came from the receiver: "I hope you still remember me, an old subordinate."
Karasuma Renye laughed: "You are still exactly the same as before, Rum."
"You won't call me unless there is something important. Is it Yujiang or Belmod this time?"
"Alas." Karasuma Renye put away the happy expression on her face and turned to worry, "He really thought that I did that thing."
When he heard that it was "he" instead of "she", Rum understood, but he really couldn't say much about the matter between Yu Jiang and BOSS, so he could only say with relief:
"You know him well. Before he investigates clearly, he is always used to doubting everyone. But this is also the reason why you fell in love with him in the first place, isn't it? A person who can draw a line from the past at any time is terrifyingly rational. But in the face of enough benefits, he is the best friend."
"Yes, he is our chosen successor. But to be honest, I am not optimistic about the future of the organization." Karasuma Renye sighed faintly, "How far can we go?"
Rum only said: "Take it one step at a time. Until the future arrives, none of us will know the outcome - including those guys."
Mentioning "those guys", Karasuma Renye's face suddenly turned cold. This coldness was different from the deliberate expression on his face in front of Yu Jiang before. It was the indifference that truly contained a storm.
"Still not found out?" Renye Karasuma asked angrily. In addition to questioning, there was also a trace of unnoticeable worry in his tone.
Rum calmly accepted all the blame: "At present, it seems that it may have something to do with it sixteen years ago. In the end, it is still my problem."
"That incident sixteen years ago was not that important." Karasuma Renye said firmly, "On the other hand, Akai Mutake cannot rest assured for a day without seeing his body!"
"At that time..." Rum said tentatively, "Didn't many people witness the scene of him being buried in the fire? Even Superman wouldn't be able to survive that situation."
"Hmph, these people we are facing, let alone the sea of swords, guns and fire, even if it is the end of the world, I am afraid they will only be the few who can survive to the end.
"Rum, maybe your vacation will end early."
Rum laughed and joked: "I can't keep my old bones for a few years. However, I am always happy to help you as long as you need it."
"Old? Who is not old?"
Karasuma Renye's eyes fell on the green shade outside the window, "Not everyone has that girl's luck."
Of course, Rum knew what Renye Karasuma was lamenting, but as an old man, he kept silent very wisely, and only echoed with a few nutritious words from time to time.
…
After leaving Karasuma Renye's beautiful "palace", Yue refused the kindness of the members of Karasuma Renye's "Tendan" to drive them to their residence.
"In ten minutes, arrange a vehicle to take me to the Vinedick Hotel." Yu Jiang calmly ordered William Drake, not caring that the other party now had nothing like him.
William Drake responded calmly.
He walked aside, took out his mobile phone and started to communicate.
Yu Jiang didn't care what he was going to do, let alone worry that William Drake would be detrimental to him. After all, this is the territory of the Karasuma Group. He holds the title of Karasuma Ikue, and no one dares to do anything to him.
Five minutes later, the car arranged by William Drake arrived.
The car is not a good one, and it is incomparable to Renya Karasuma's collection, but William's great thing is that he can call for transportation in five minutes.
You must know that Karasuma Renye's residence is not in a prosperous area. Not to mention people around here, not even a bird can be seen!
Yu Jiang glanced at William Drake and got into the car calmly.
What is this called in psychology? Compliance test?
The result was pretty good, even surprising Yu Jiang.
He is now very sure that William Drake is indeed different from four years ago. Not only his personality, but also his abilities have improved a lot.
As for the reason why Renye Karasuma insisted on placing William Drake next to him, Ikue didn't even have to guess.
It's nothing more than an informant used to monitor him.
The car drove on the highway for about an hour before finally delivering Yu Jiang to the Vinedick Hotel.
Before getting out of the car, Yu Jiang stopped William Drake who was about to act with him.
He pulled a note from his seat pocket, scribbled an address on it, and handed it to William Drake.
William asked for the address with his eyes without saying a word.
"I figured out a way to pass the test and became the bodyguard of the Haneda family. Within a month, I was sent by Haneda Yasuharu to protect his son."
"Any means will do."
Yu Jiang finished the second half of the sentence with a smile, closed the car door, left William Drake in the car, and walked toward the hotel lobby alone.
