Chapter 723: This Is a Warning!
The two cars separated at the Street Corner, sped through the Street, and drove along different Roads towards the same direction.
On the Road, Chi Feichei sat in the Back Seat of Gin's Car and checked Cleopatra's Mobile Phone. "All Emails have been deleted, there are Phone Numbers for the Manager, Company Management, and several business and political figures, but no Contact Information for Jacques Bernard is stored. In the UL Chat Software, there is a Human noted as J. There is only this one Classification. It is very likely Jacques Bernard. However, the Chat History has been deleted, so no Information can be found."
"Then No Need to Care," Gin said. "Anyway, that Bourbon Fellow is Already Staring at the Human!"
Chi Feichei formatted the Mobile Phone, put on Gloves, took out a Tissue and carefully wiped the Fingerprint left on the Mobile Phone, and asked without raising his Head, "Are you Intending to Solve them together?"
"Their Value is Already exhausted, keeping them around would also be a big Trouble," Gin's Gaze was gloomy. "You Contact Kurahashi, have him bring all the People All over. Solve the seven Humans besides him! I will have that Anbe Fellow find a good Witness for the Alibi."
The Black Porsche 356A passed the Bridge. An orange Mobile Phone and the taken-out Phone Card were Thrown out from the Back Seat Car Window, flew out over the Guardrail, and fell into the River with a 'plop'.
In the Back Seat, Chi Feichei raised the Car Window again, took out his Mobile Phone and made a Phone Call to Kurahashi Kenichi.
The Fish is Already hooked, Then the Bait is also Useless.
If eight builders from the same Company were Murdered at the same Time, it might cause the Boss of that Construction Company to be Investigated by the Police. To protect that black-hearted Boss, the Action Should not have been so simple and crude, But Now Cleopatra is dead, Funato is meeting with Cleopatra's Person of Rumor, Then, those Humans can be Called over and Handled together.
The best Method is Explosion.
This way, Will create an Illusion for the Outside World: This Is someone Resenting Cleopatra and her Person of Rumor, So they Will in one Night, first Assassinate Cleopatra, and then Explode Jacques Bernard with a Bomb, while the other seven Humans besides Kurahashi were Just Acquaintances of Jacques Bernard, and were just unlucky fellows who happened to gather together at the Izakaya and got caught in the blast.
It can be Disposable Handled cleanly, and also Cover-up the Organization's existence and Real Purpose.
As For that black-hearted Boss Anbe...
It was not Easy for Gin to be Able to remind The Other Party to find a good Alibi. If even this is still pursued and Investigated by the Police, Then Guess it Will Again be the Fate of being Silenced.
...
Early Morning 1:06, O-chō, Bunkyo Ward.
Police Car, Ambulance, Fire Truck gathered in front of an Izakaya burning with a Big Fire.
Reporters who rushed over upon hearing the news stood in the rolling Smoke and Dust, and Reported the Big Explosion from over ten minutes Before into the Camera Lens.
"...According to Our Knowledge, in this Explosion, only the Izakaya Boss who took the Guest to the Washroom and that Guest escaped the disaster. The specific number of casualties is still not Confirmed. The Reason for the Explosion is also still under Investigation..."
On the Ambulance, Kurahashi Kenichi lay quietly on the Stretcher, listening to the Ambulance close its Car Door and leave with a whistle, and closed his eyes.
One Hour Before, he received a Phone Call from that Man with a Hoarse Voice and unpleasant Sound, telling him to find any Reason, and trick his Companion of four years Getting Along to this Izakaya. There was a Bomb set up by the Organization inside the Izakaya, telling him to leave Before 0:50.
He did as told.
He and those seven Humans were Just connected by Benefit, far less Important than his Daughter.
In Fact, Even If the Humans are dead Now, he wasn't very sad, Just felt waves of Chill in his Heart.
Previously, although he knew this Organization was building Illegal Building, and Illegal Fund Raising, and also knew some Humans were involved in Murder Case, But they always thought of seeking wealth in Danger, under the impact of Money again and again, they Slowly stopped caring about it.
This Time was their First Time participating. He became an accomplice, and the other seven Humans, along with that foreign Man who was sitting with Funato, became the Victims.
Thinking of these Things, his Mood was Still difficult to Calm.
For a Moment, he Realized that when he and the other six Humans entered the Door, they Saw Funato's Face was a Bit unpleasant when he was sitting with a foreign Man. He Still Smilingly Greeted and Said what a coincidence, and those Faces were annihilated in the Explosion in a Moment...
For a Moment, he Again Realized that when he received the Phone Call, he Asked The Other Party how he should clear his Suspicion by slipping away alone. The Other Party's Hoarse Voice was Still Calmness and Cold, and Just Said One Sentence: 'That Is your Matter'.
He could only find a Reason to leave temporarily, and still didn't dare to Go To too far, regardless of severity, he had to suffer A Bit Injury.
Taking the Izakaya Boss with him, was considered him praying for blessings for his Own Daughter, accumulating A Bit virtue.
He could Feel, the Organization was like a Pitch Black swamp hiding Danger. Before, he was Just walking on the Edge, his Shoe soles were stained with Mud but not much. But Afterwards this Time, he had Already stepped into the swamp. What made him Uncomfortable was, his Daughter was also pulled down.
Raki Said, his Daughter joined the Organization.
Just Now he Saw the Police, and countless Times wanted to ask the Police for help. At least he wanted the Police to pull his Daughter out. But he didn't dare. These Day he secretly inquired from Acquaintances in Kumamoto. His Daughter Run Away From Home, and is still Missing to this Day. Should be in the Hands of those Humans.
"Mr.? This Mr.?"
By his ear, the Young Doctor's shouting made Kurahashi Kenichi come back to his senses.
"The Burn on your Arm and the Scratch on your Face, I have Already Handled them for you. Is there anywhere you Feel Uncomfortable? For Example Dizziness, nausea, or similar Things."
"Nothing." Kurahashi Kenichi responded, Lowering his Head to Look at his cleaned and bandaged Arm. He didn't Know if he was too distracted, or if this Doctor's Method was too good, but Just Now he Actually didn't Feel any pain.
"That's Good. But Afterwards you arrive at the Hospital, you Still need to have a comprehensive Inspect..." The Young Doctor's Face was a Bit meaty, and he Looked very Kind when Smilingly. Seeing that no other Humans noticed, he leaned towards Kurahashi Kenichi's ear, and Said in a lowered Voice, "I'm relaying Raki's Words: You are very smart. These Day, recover from your injuries, Wait for the Limelight to pass, and you Will be allowed to meet your Daughter. Afterwards you Will Go To America. Hope you can continue to be smart."
Kurahashi Kenichi's Face stiffened A Bit, the Chill in his Heart grew stronger, and he silently Nodded.
This Is a warning, warning him not to Try to reveal anything to the Police!
He Unexpectedly, even the Ambulance that Came Over had Humans from those Humans. If Just Now he went to Contact the Police, Then the Outcome awaiting him would probably not be Good.
...
On another Secluded Street in O-chō, two Cars were stopped at the Roadside.
In the Porsche Back Seat, Chi Feichei Looked at the Email received on his Mobile Phone, "Kurahashi did not Contact the Police."
Vodka smiled A Bit. "This Fellow is not too stupid!"
In the Rear, Curaçao got out of the Car, Go To the Car Side, knocked on the Car Window A Bit, with a smile at the Corner of Mouth that had no Temperature. "Rum told me to withdraw, I'll leave First Time."
After Saying, she Just Turned Around and entered the nearby Alley.
Chi Feichei Looked One Eye, and withdrew his Line of Sight.
Curaçao had Previously Discovered Things she Shouldn't Know. She was almost Executed. After being saved by Rum, she was trained to be a Confidant. She is considered a Human who has experienced great ups and downs. Moreover, her Own Pride and Danger Level are absolutely no worse than other Core Members.
The Organization's Core Members Seemingly all have a Problem - Don't talk to me about being Friend, We Just talk about Task.
Everyone is like this, So no one is out of place, and no one Will pay attention to whether other Humans are out of place. They Just Look at whether they find it pleasing to the Eye.
Before Contacting the Junior Detective League, Curaçao was not that Good at Getting Along. Or rather, If Curaçao hadn't lost her Memory at that Time, she also wouldn't play with a Group of Kid. This Is also a Human who is Cold at Heart, Slow to warm up, and full of Vigilance.
Rena Mizunashi (Kir) also got out of the Car, Go To the Porsche side, Turned Head and Looked at the Alley where the Figure was Gone. and Asked in a Tone of Relaxation, "What about Us? Gin? Should we also withdraw?"
Gin Just wanted to Say Words, when he Saw the Figure walking from the Street Corner. His Gaze paused A Bit, and a Cold smile rose at the Corner of Mouth. "Bourbon is here!"
The Human walking over was All Black Clothes. Looking at the figure, it could be seen that it was a Male. The hood plus the Baseball Cap almost completely blocked the Face. Only a Bit of Blonde Hair and a sharp chin showing Black Skin were exposed.
Chi Feichei Saw the skin color, Hair Color, and figure, and Guessed that the person coming was Amuro, the little Undercover Agent. He Asked in a Hoarse Voice, "Bourbon?"
Hassashi hid under the Clothes, resisting the urge to pop his Head out and Greet.
It's not Easy ah, he finally ran into Amuro Toru during an Action.
"A Bit Unexpected, right?" Gin Turned Head to Look at Chi Feichei. His Voice was very low, so low that Rena Mizunashi (Kir) standing by the Car Side couldn't hear it clearly either.
According to his Knowledge, Bourbon Previously, in order to Investigate July, infiltrated the Pet Hospital, and happened to become Raki's Assistant.
But Raki Just Contacted the Organization Before, and didn't Know that his Own former Assistant was Bourbon, the Search Expert in the Organization. And Raki's True Identity needed to be Concealed. Bourbon Still doesn't Know that Raki was his Advisor during that short period.
"It's Okay." Chi Feichei's Tone was flat.
He could be glad that his Own Face was always Calm. When he Saw Amuro Toru, he also didn't need to Intentionally put on a Performance of the Expression and Reaction 'My Inner Self is very surprised, But I need to quickly suppress the surprised Reaction'.
Gin Indeed didn't hope to see anything from Chi Feichei's Expression. He Turned Head and Looked Towards Outside the window.
Amuro Toru Go To the Front of Car. He didn't get too close, and didn't Greet either. After Stopping, he maintained his distance, and Said in a Tone with a slight Playfulness, "Just Now I went to Look A Bit at that French Teacher's Residence. That Fellow Should have a Connection with DGSE. It Seemingly the Connection has Already existed for several years. But there is only a Handbook in the Residence that can prove his Identity. Letter and other Materials Should have been destroyed. I have Already taken away the Things related to DGSE from his Home. The Police Will not be able to Investigate his Abnormality. If there is any Discovery, I Will tell You Again."
Chi Feichei lowered his Eye A Bit. DGSE, which is the Abbreviation for the French General Directorate for External Security...
Gin Cold snorted. "Your Speed is Really Fast enough!"
Bourbon's Ability is undeniable. If Not for this Fellow Discovering Jacques Bernard, this Key Human, Cleopatra probably wouldn't have revealed anything even upon death. They also couldn't figure out which Faction had extended its Hand into the Organization.
Moreover Bourbon has Already gone to Search, Confirmed Jacques Bernard's Identity, and also took away some Things. Otherwise, Japanese Public Security would Probably be involved, Staring at Jacques Bernard to Investigate. Even If they couldn't find anything, casually interfering with Organization Operation would also be annoying to the Human Heart.
But the Human is Already dead, and the Factions Staring at the Organization are more than just one or two. Figuring out which side Cleopatra leaked the Intelligence to is also not that Important Anymore...
He Still has the old Point of view, mystics all have Problems.
If Not for Bourbon indirectly causing Jacques Bernard's death this Time, which doesn't seem like something an Accomplice would do, Moreover, going over in Time to Clean Up some Trace was considered helpful, Just the Point that Bourbon himself ran to Jacques Bernard's Home to look for Things, he would have Reason to Suspect that Bourbon is also a Human from DGSE. Previously, he was Cleaning Up the Connection with his Accomplice and Cleaning Up DGSE's Important Intelligence.
