"I didn't respond right away." Scotland whispered, "Sorry, Kashasha."
He really didn't react.
In fact, Scotland felt like the whole world was alien, including himself.
After meeting Kashasha's eyes, Scotland reluctantly matched him with "Kawakami Tsuji", and then realized that this was his partner, not a stranger who might bring danger.
"Tsk, this explanation is really perfunctory..."
The gray-haired young man tilted his head, with a fake smile on his face, and looked at Scotland with an inquiring look on his face.
From this angle, Kawakami's glasses reflected light, making Scotland unable to see his expression clearly.
After a few seconds, Kawakami put down his Colt, and there was even an imperceptible worry in his expression.
"There's something wrong with you, Scotch," he said with absolute certainty.
That's right, Kawakamiji intends to make the situation clear directly.
With the observation ability of "Kashasha", he can certainly see that something is wrong in Scotland. According to his usual curiosity and mobility, it is impossible to ignore it.
Therefore, for Kawakami, this is an opportunity to test Scotland openly.
Well, Scotland pointed it out directly when he found out he had a problem, probably because of this... Kawakami thought silently, sometimes it is really troublesome to beat around the bush.
"What's wrong?"
Scotland asked. The cat-eyed young man's expression was closer to doubt than to rhetorical question or denial, although there was still no expression other than a smile on his face.
Kawakami raised his hand, stepped down from the window sill, and landed on the ground of the safe house. He almost knocked over the pothos on the edge. He took a few steps forward to close the distance between himself and Scotland.
"You should know that I like to walk through windows, but you actually shoot? Ah, take a step back and pretend that you really didn't react, but -"
As he spoke, the gray-haired young man raised his hand violently and hit Scotland in the face, who subconsciously blocked it.
But Kawakami was just a feint. His purpose was not to attack Scotland, but to have physical contact with him.
Tsugumi Kawakami plunged the syringe into Scotland's skin.
——By the way, this syringe and medicine came from the doctor's laboratory.
"Kawakami, you..."
The medicine produced by the organization was naturally excellent, and Scotland soon fell into a coma. His guard against Kawakami Tsumugi was still too low. After realizing this, the gray-haired young man's impression of Scotland improved slightly.
"This is revenge. Now I forgive you for shooting me."
Even though he knew Scotland couldn't hear it, Kawakami still explained seriously.
…………
After settling in Scotland on the sofa, Kawakami took out his mobile phone and dialed the doctor's temporary number.
Fortunately, the doctor didn't block him yet.
“Ka-sha-xia-!
! You actually touched my medicine!
! Are you looking for death? Do you really think that I won’t kill you on the operating table in the future? Let me tell you, even then that person won’t be able to stop you—”
Sounding in good spirits and even more energetic than when he was yelling before, the gray-haired young man held the phone half a palm's width away from his ear.
...Suddenly I thought the doctor's hairy look was quite interesting. Kawakami thought aimlessly, if he had known he would be so angry, he should have taken more medicine when he got it...
"I'm sorry, doctor." Kawakami apologized without any remorse, and his tone was sincere, "I was very measured. I just took away a little of the anesthetic and neurotoxin. Well, I also helped you put the rest back. original position……"
"Why, do you still need me to praise you?! You - you -"
Just when the other party was so angry that he lost his voice, Kawakamiji interrupted the topic:
"My partner is in a bad state. He is Scotch, the one who sent me to the medical base early this morning. You guys met him."
"...I admire your ability to pretend to be stupid." The doctor said grimly, "If you dare to touch my medicine, I will tell you clearly, Kashasha, you are finished -"
Kawakami pretended not to hear the doctor's sarcasm and continued the chicken-to-duck conversation:
"Due to your sudden appearance, I have a reasonable suspicion that the current situation in Scotland may be caused by the organization, but there may be other circumstances."
"In order to find out the truth and resolve possible hidden dangers within the organization, I feel it is necessary to take some preventive measures. In this case, I would like to ask you to give professional advice from a doctor's perspective-"
"If I interrogate Scotland, will it affect his mental state?"
…………
Kawakami Tsuna could feel that the doctor actually didn't care what he wanted to do to Scotland, he only cared about his own medicine.
He deliberately called back the communication, which was actually a covert lie.
From the doctor's reaction, Kawakami confirmed that the other party would probably not complain to that gentleman, but would prefer to recover the situation when he was injured next time. This also showed that the doctor and that gentleman were not special. familiar.
Just find a place to find a place. Let’s talk about the next time. The gray-haired young man had no sense of crisis when facing the mad doctor.
After dealing with the doctor, Kawakami took out a small glass bottle from his room and took some Scotland's blood.
Then the gray-haired young man brought a chair over and sat in front of Scotland, crossing his legs and supporting his chin with his left hand.
He was waiting for Scotland to wake up.
Because he didn't know the concentration, Kawakami only gave Scotland one-third of the anesthetic. The effect of the drug shouldn't last long.
Sure enough, it didn't take long for Scotland to wake up.
The cat-eyed young man lowered his head, looked at the nylon rope tightly wrapped around his body, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"Kashasha, what do you want to do?" Scotland's tone became colder, "Codename members are prohibited from killing each other or lynching."
"Ah, that's right. If I poke Gin, I'll probably deduct the year-end bonus - luckily our organization doesn't have such a thing as a year-end bonus."
The gray-haired young man said lazily,
"I'm sorry to treat you like this, but what happened before gave me a sense of crisis. Before I get rid of this sense of crisis, I probably have to wrong you. After all, I don't want to be suddenly shot in the head by my partner... "
"I explained it, it was an accident."
Scotland moved, and he could feel that the nylon rope binding him was not particularly tight, but it was very professional and could not be removed for a while.
"You are angry - no, you should be angry. But you can't feel this emotion. Out of the instinct of not wanting to reveal that something is wrong with you, you are pretending. Well... there is also a possibility that you can have emotions, just The way to express emotions is blocked?”
Kawakamiji suddenly leaned down and almost touched Scotland's face.
There was a creepy excitement in his dull black eyes, the kind of emotion that avid researchers would show when they see a topic of interest.
"This is very interesting. It seems that the organization is playing tricks on you? To be honest, I shouldn't have the right to ask, but since I discovered this, I naturally have to find out... After all, my personal safety is threatened."
From this perspective, Kawakami would also like to thank Scotland for that shot.
In this way, "Kashasha" can openly explore the situation in Scotland, and even if the gentleman asks, he will have enough reasons.
"I don't know what you're talking about," Scotland replied coldly.
"Don't worry, I just want to help you figure out what you don't know. You can trust me." Kawakami said soothingly, "So, can you tell me how you feel now?"
