Let’s not mention Kawakami’s miserable sleepless nights.
On the other side, after assisting the police to review the endgame, Toru Amuro had to return to his safe house. The last mission of the action team was not completely over yet, and he needed to write a written report and submit it to Rum.
But when composing the report, Toru Amuro couldn't help but think back over and over again the words Kashasha said when he left: [It's over, Mr. Furitani. 】
I have to say that at that time, Toru Amuro almost felt like he was being poured a bucket of ice water over from head to toe. Then he realized that Kashasha was deceiving him because the meaningful smile on the guy's face was too obvious.
Then, Scotland quickly evacuated with Kashasha.
The two members of the organization jumped out of the window together. But because his real surname was called out by Kashasha, Toru Amuro was stunned for a few seconds before rushing over to check...
The first page of the report was successfully coded. Toru Amuro briefly checked it to make sure there were no typos before continuing to write a paragraph.
Kashasha probably didn't fully understand his true identity. He probably heard the surname "Furuya" from Yuya Kazami. If he had successfully established the equation of "Bourbon = Toru Amuro = Furuya", I will definitely call him by his codename when lip-syncing.
Therefore, Kashaxia only knew that there was a leader named Jianggu on the police side. Therefore, people will test out words when they encounter possible people. At the same time, Kashasha's test was successful, because his reaction at that moment was indeed substandard.
However, there is another very important point... Why did Kashasha lip-sync to prompt Scotland when they attacked them? If that guy hadn't warned them, Toru Amuro might not have been able to catch the sound of the bomb falling in time under those circumstances, and they would have suffered heavy losses.
The inference he had made with Scotland came to mind again, but only for a moment.
From Toru Amuro's point of view, although Kashasha may not be completely organized, he doesn't look like a good person. Even with Jing's inference, there is no evidence that Kashasha is an undercover agent...
What's more, the situation in Scotland is unclear, and Kashasha is an enemy on the surface...
After Success Lake completed the report, Toru Amuro sent it to Rum, and his boss, whom he had never met before, was as efficient as ever and gave feedback quickly.
【receive. ——Rum]
Only now did Toru Amuro relax slightly. After handing in the report, there would be no loopholes in Rum's trajectory today. Rubbing his sore wrist, Toru Amuro took out another mobile phone and contacted Yuya Kazami.
"How's the situation?" he asked, his voice involuntarily taking on a serious tone.
"Mr. Furutani... we suffered heavy losses in this operation. Not only the invasion of the stronghold, but also our internal network was attacked, and the relevant technical personnel are now solving the problem."
There are naturally powerful hackers within Group Zero, but Ash, the leader, stayed at the Ministry of Public Security due to his identity. He seemed to have died in a previous attack by the organization against the Ministry of Public Security, so now they are at a disadvantage in the online game with the organization.
"Has the information left by that researcher been unlocked?" Toru Amuro asked again.
"It has been unlocked, but I don't have permission to view the information. It should be about drugs. Also, we have notified the parents of the three children left behind. The Suzuki Consortium is negotiating with our people."
"Try to explain this incident as a retaliatory act by an ordinary underworld. The existence of the organization cannot be disclosed at will." Although he knew that his boss had probably given corresponding orders, Toru Amuro still warned him again.
"But what about the two children who were taken away by the organization?" Kazami Yuya asked cautiously.
Amuro Toru was stuck for a moment.
In his opinion, the person pretending to be Mari Jingchuan was Belmod, and with Belmod's methods... it was almost impossible for the two children to survive.
"Notify their families directly of the death." Toru Amuro said weakly.
…………
Kawakami hurriedly finished writing the review at three o'clock in the morning. He felt that he was almost squeezed dry by these 10,000 words. After I sent my review to the gentleman by email, I was so tired that I just lay down on the table.
It's time to sleep, but Kawakamiji's mind is extremely active, and his brain keeps sending him a message: lemon candy, lemon candy, lemon candy...
Indeed, you should eat some lemon candy to comfort yourself after writing your review. Kawakami thought.
His heart beat his actions. Five minutes later, the gray-haired young man successfully smuggled out of the organization's stronghold and wandered on the deserted street. The cold wind in winter was as strong as a knife, so Kawakami couldn't help but wrap himself tightly in a windbreaker.
It seems that Scotland gave him a lot of warm-up patches and they haven't used them up yet, but Tsumugi Kawakami only cared about lemon candies and didn't take them with him when he went out...
Forget it, just be colder.
After being completely frozen by the wind, Kawakami didn't feel anything anymore. He walked along the edge of the sidewalk. At this time, there were only a few main roads with lights on in the city, so when he looked up at the sky, he could see more stars.
The gray-haired young man only admired it for two minutes before losing interest. He headed straight to the nearest 24-hour convenience store with a clear goal.
After successfully emptying the entire shelf of lemon candies, Kawakami Satisfied, he found a place with a leeward side and sat down, slowly consuming less than half of the bag.
During Kashasha's previous rehabilitation training period, because of that gentleman's supervision, Kawakami had almost no chance to eat lemon candies. Now that gentleman is still in Tottori Prefecture and has no control over Yoneka Town, which makes Kawakami Economics can't help but consume in revenge.
"Okay, it's time to get down to business." After replenishing his sugar, Kawakami was very satisfied and said to himself.
The main thing that Kawakami wanted to do was to contact the Mad Hatter. In the previous operation, Barolo's appearance reminded him. There are many ways to contact the powerful hacker.
For example, a public telephone box on the street.
After walking for a while, Kawakami found his target.
Before making contact, this area of monitoring must be dealt with. Since he didn't have any hacking tools, he destroyed the camera by force.
After everything was taken care of, Kawakami locked himself into the phone booth on the corner of the street. He ate another lemon candy and closed the door. After checking the small space of the phone booth inside and out, Kawakami dialed a phone number.
It says it's a phone number, but it's actually a bunch of garbled characters.
There was neither a warm reminder that the number was empty nor a beeping sound indicating that the phone was waiting to be answered. In fact, Kawakamiji could only hear silence. After waiting patiently for five minutes, he typed in another string of garbled characters.
"Long time no see, my friend I have never met." This time, Kawakami Tsumugi heard the Mad Hatter's greeting, a mechanical voice that could not tell the difference between male and female.
"You said before, you can explain." Tsumugi Kawakami started, "It's a pity that I just have time now. To be honest, there are a lot of things I want to know, such as your purpose and how you guided Qian Mu Liangchen to find My reasons..."
He paused, and then continued to test: "But what I want to ask most is this...what exactly are you?"
This sentence sounds very much like a curse, but Kawakami's doubts are sincere.
In fact, he began to doubt the hacker's identity during the Scotland incident, and even doubted his relationship with his own system.
"So you want to have an honest conversation with me?"
"That's right."
Speaking of "open and honest communication" sounds a bit crooked, but the Mad Hatter's tone was serious - God knows how he could hear the seriousness in the mechanical voice.
The Mad Hatter didn't respond immediately, but remained silent for a long time. Kawakami didn't rush him either. He quietly waited for the latter's reaction.
Because he had eaten a lot of lemon candies in a short period of time, his tongue felt a little sore.
"As you may think, I am not a simple hacker." said the Mad Hatter. "In a way, I am your system, but only part of it."
Thunder struck the ground, and Kawakami almost jumped out of the phone booth due to a stress reaction. He stepped back involuntarily and hit the glass so hard that he held his breath for a moment.
Because, the Mad Hatter didn't communicate over the phone.
His voice appeared directly in Kawakami's brain.
