Chapter 14: Beware of snitches
Akai Shuichi's process of entering the organization was quite smooth.
After all, the FBI is such a large official organization, so it is not particularly difficult to create a fake identity for him that the organization cannot detect. The only problem is the channel, and with the help of the Miyano sisters, this problem has been solved.
The method of entry was no different from what he had thought before. At the beginning, he thought Natsume Natsuki was one of the more important ones, but later he got to know more people through Miyano Shiho, and he couldn't confirm which one of the people was recruited this time - in short, The first step is to get on track.
However, Natsume Natsuki left a deeper impression on him. When he was chatting with Miyano Akemi, he accidentally asked: "I just realized that the nature of the organization your sister belongs to is like this...Then the same goes for Miss Natsume." Is that so? She seemed to be aware of my past career last time. Is this recruitment because of what she said? "
"Hmm... I don't think so. Natsuki is just a researcher." Miyano Akemi said with a smile on her face, "She was recruited like Shiho because she is a genius in her field."
...Oh, yes, that girl seems to have an unusually good relationship with his girlfriend's sister. ——Akai Shuichi couldn't help but be a little silent.
But now the start is good, and he has enough patience not to be too impatient.
The top priority is to move up first so that you can reach more people and uncover the tip of the iceberg of this mysterious organization.
Of course, there must still be some temptations, and because of his current status, it is logical to ask some questions.
"It turns out that Shiho's codename is Shirley..." Shuichi Akai, who officially passed the assessment and entered the organization and became one of the newcomers, had a look of surprise on his face, "So the important members of the organization have alcohol codenames?"
"Yes, but you don't have to worry, Zhuxing. If you are up to your standards, I feel like you will soon be recognized by the superiors and get a code name." The members of the organization responsible for the inspection task assessment this time had a very good attitude towards the newcomer in front of them.
After all, he could see the potential of the other person, and even felt that the man in front of him would get a code name within a few months.
"I'll lend you some good words." Akai Shuichi smiled slightly, deliberately showing a slightly confused expression, but he quickly covered it up.
The other party noticed it and immediately asked: "Is there anything wrong?"
"Ah...it's nothing." Akai Shuichi said, but he still expressed his doubts, "I'm just a little curious...Is there a member named Natsume Natsuki in our organization?"
"...How did you know..." The other party asked halfway, and he showed a stunned expression before asking himself, "That's right, you came in because you knew Shirley..."
As expected, he is also a member of the organization...
Shuichi Akai came to a realization and made a judgment at the same time - Natsume Natsuki's status in the organization should be higher than Shirley!
Making this judgment is just basic reasoning - the organization does not allow the Miyano sisters to have too much contact, but it is no problem when Natsume Natsuki is present. This shows that the organization's trust in Natsume Natsuki is definitely higher than Miyano Shiho.
But the reason...if the other party is just an ordinary researcher...
"That Miss Natsume is also a member with a code name, right?" Akai Shuichi asked.
"Well... I advise you to ask less about her." The member who answered him glanced at him, his eyes became a little complicated, and he couldn't hold it back, "Especially you."
The previous words are understandable...the latter words made Shuichi Akai couldn't help but have a question mark on his head - why emphasize it in particular?
"The people who had crooked ideas about her before are all dead now." The other party said, his tone became more solemn, "She is protected by powerful people, and they are protected like water."

At the same time, on the other side——————
"Ajiu——" I sneezed, sniffed, turned my head and looked around in confusion, and muttered, "Who is saying bad things about me behind my back?"
"It could also be a cold." Miyano Shiho, who was next to me, half-opened his eyes and said, "Why don't you go home so late? According to your previous records, the Cold War time should also be here, right?"
"First of all, this is not a cold war. I feel that in his opinion, every time I lose my temper unilaterally... it makes me even more angry. But it is indeed not a cold war. I am not ignoring people, and I don't need to make peace. I replied solemnly, "Besides... Boss Gin has a mission of his own tonight, so he wouldn't have gone home in the first place. Speaking of which, I think his schedule has become immortal to a certain extent, plus... Smoking and drinking are just like food... To be honest, I'm a little worried, what if he dies earlier than me?"
"I don't even know whether I should say whether your relationship is good or bad..." Miyano Shiho had a black line on his face, then lowered his head and picked up the venison on the plate with a fork. After a moment of silence, he asked, "By the way, Let me tell you, my sister’s boyfriend has joined the organization.”
"Well, I know. Judging from his impressive resume, he will probably be able to make a name for himself soon, right? Was it you who recommended him?"
"Well... after all, my sister asked me to take care of her."
...Is it requested by Miyano Akemi?
Also, if it weren't for this relationship, Miyano Shiho would not have actively recommended people even though he was concentrating on research in the organization and not engaging in interpersonal relationships.
"Don't worry, Mingmei is not stupid." I comforted her without saying anything more.
After all, things have developed like this. If I come out with all the conjectures of my conspiracy theory, it will only make Miyano Shiho feel uncomfortable.
"...Hmm." Miyano Shiho nodded and started to care about another thing, "If my sister's boyfriend is good enough, does it meet your previous annoying requirements?"
"About this matter..." My face became more serious, "Let's discuss it after making sure he won't embarrass me."
What I meant to say. Rather, my personality of wanting to share more with whomever I have a better relationship with determines this.
You know, when I saw the very special shape of the colony on the petri dish today, I would take a photo and send it to the boss of Gin, not to mention the fact that the new people in the organization were family members of friends I had met before.
But because of the way he mocked me before and his attitude of not caring at all and looking down on me, I didn't plan to say anything. I also planned to scare him...forget it, it's impossible to scare him. Just think you can give him a surprise!
I was reading Miyano Shiho's recent experimental progress report. There was a new email on my phone. I picked it up and looked at it. I raised my eyebrows. I didn't have much surprise about the content - the person below told me about the Morohoshi. After joining the organization, I was mentioned.
Since we met at the beginning, the purpose of my test was quite obvious. As long as he was not stupid, he would have guessed that I had some relationship with the organization, and it was normal for him to ask me.
I thought for a while, then asked for Morohoshi's contact information, and made a call: "Hello? Morohoshi, it's me, Natsume Natsuki."
Opposite me, Miyano Shiho glanced at me with a little surprise, but remained silent and kept writing his own experimental notes.
The person on the other end of the phone didn't seem to expect the call. He paused for a second or two before replying as if he had just come to his senses: [Ah, it's Miss Natsume...Sorry, I'm not allowed to inquire about you in the organization. ? 】
"It doesn't matter. My secret is not leaked that easily. It's your ability to find out. First of all, congratulations on passing the test and joining the organization."
[Thank you... Does the organization's recruitment of me have anything to do with you? 】
"A little bit." I said confidently.
I also played a little negative role, so why can't this be considered related?
[Looks like this... Do you need me to say thank you? 】
"That's not necessary." I said honestly.
I'm not being polite, but I really didn't do anything that required the other person to thank me.
[You must be a senior person...what should I call you from now on? What's the code name? 】
"You will know my code name naturally when you need to know it. I just called you to give you a warning in advance."
[Is this advice to newcomers who are new to the organization? 】
"It's advice, but it's only for you." The smile in my voice subsided at this moment, and I lowered my voice and warned coldly, "I don't care what your intentions are in approaching Mingmei, if it involves their sisters. If so, I will kill you."
After a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone, he replied calmly in a very ordinary tone: "You are worrying too much." 】
"It's best like this. Now that you've decided to join, let's do it well!" I calmed down my previous momentum, put on a friendly tone of encouragement, hung up the phone, and looked at the other person who was looking at me with a somewhat complicated look. Looking at my Miyano Shiho, "What's wrong, Shiho? Are you too touched?"
"...Who would." Miyano Shiho replied awkwardly and withdrew his gaze.
"Don't be too moved. I must let the person involved know about my good deeds, otherwise I will lose money. So you also know that I have another purpose in trying to increase your sisters' favorability."
"Yes, yes - if you are fine, can you go home? It will hinder my work."
"Even if you're not touched, just be gentle to me..." I replied with a hint of sadness. I picked it up when I heard the beep of my phone, and casually checked the new emails. Then my expression changed and I put the phone away. He put it in his pocket and jumped up from the chair, "I have something to do and I have to leave first!"
Miyano Shiho was stunned for a moment, then asked again: "Huh? What happened?"
"Well... it's a big deal, I guess." I said solemnly, "Vodka just reported to me, and Belmod is here."
