Chu Ming also lowered his voice and quietly approached Amuro Toru: “The gossip you told me has been exposed. Bourbon, you can go with peace of mind. If you have an inheritance, tell big brother now and he will help you spend it.”

? ? ? ?

Amuro Toru suddenly turned his head and stared at Chu Ming: “You——”

“Don’t look at me. I didn’t say you said it. They guessed it themselves. There’s nothing I can do about it.” Chu Ming shirked the responsibility, like a scumbag who was defending himself in front of his wife and daughter.

Amuro Toru gritted his teeth and was about to say something else when Chu Ming knocked on the office door and pushed him in when he was not paying attention.

Amuro Toru stumbled into the room without noticing. When he looked up, he saw Gin sitting on a chair with murderous eyes. Vermouth was leaning against the wall with her arms folded across her chest, looking at him with a half-smile.

Standing next to them was Vodka, who was trying hard to pose and maintain the same momentum as the other two. There was also Granburch at the door, sticking his head out to watch the fun.

The Three Judges Trial is just like this, right? I knew that nothing good would happen if I got involved with Granburch!

“I heard that I’ve been hurt in love?” Gin looked at Bourbon with a sneer, his eyes constantly scanning his body, trying to see where to shoot.

Vermouth lifted her hair and said, “I heard that I have a warehouse full of corpses as collections?”

Vodka also put on a stern face and kept in line: “I heard that I’m a perverted otaku. Why do I cry while holding a life-size figurine for no reason?”

“…”

You’ve only told the real person some of this bizarre gossip, and you still have the nerve to say that they guessed it themselves?

Putting aside other things, with Vodka’s brain, could he guess it?

Bourbon remained calm despite the men’s gazes. “It’s just some gossip. Granburch insisted on asking me to listen. What can I do? You all know how persistent he is. He’s the captain. How can I refuse him? And I’ve also told him that these are just gossips and can’t be taken seriously.”

As Toru Amuro spoke, his expression became angry: “Instead of blaming me, why don’t you take care of Granburch? I’m from the intelligence team, not here to tell him gossip stories.”

Speaking of Granburch, the three aggressive men became a little less aggressive. After all, they all knew what kind of person Chu Ming was. It was not impossible for them to threaten Bourbon and force him to tell gossip or something.

Chu Ming watched as Amuro Toru bit back at him neatly, pushing all the responsibility onto him, and quickly stuck his head in again: “I didn’t force him to tell me, he clearly took the initiative–!”

“Yes, I told you that on my own initiative.” When Toru Amuro saw Chu Ming sticking his head out, he took over the blame neatly. His sharp eyebrows were now drooping, and his golden hair seemed to be a little dull. He did not give himself any excuse.

Chu Ming felt that he was full of question marks. What are you doing? Don’t be so teasing!

Anyone can steal his spotlight these days! This is clearly his character!

Bourbon, you should argue with Gin! You should argue with him!

Chu Ming looked at Bourbon, and his disappointed look made Amuro Toru feel puzzled. He was a member of the intelligence team, and if it wasn’t a big problem like betraying the organization, Gin and others would never do anything to him without Rum’s permission.

So even though he was pulled here by Gin and the others, he wasn’t too worried. It was just some gossip. What was wrong with the intelligence officers collecting some hearsay information?

He simply wanted to drag Granburch into the water, but why did Granburch look like that when he was clearly pressured by his words?

But the pressure was over, and Amuro Toru decisively threw out the news that Chu Ming had heard before to divert attention: “I heard that Akai Shuichi has arrived in Japan? I’ve been looking for his whereabouts recently. When I find out–“

There was a hint of strong hatred and murderous intent in Toru Amuro’s eyes, exactly the same as Gin’s.

“Hmph, Akai Shuichi.”

Vermouth rolled her eyes speechlessly as she looked at Gin, whose mind was filled with thoughts of fighting and killing as soon as he heard about Akai Shuichi. It turned out that no man was reliable.

She waved at Chu Ming outside the door, calling him in, then took out a few papers from the cabinet and handed them to Amuro Toru: “I’ll check on Akai Shuichi’s case. There happens to be a deal going on in Tottori Prefecture, and Granburch was supposed to go alone. Since you’re free, go and help Granburch.”

Free time? How could he be free? Amuro Toru took the information unhappily. He had been busy with Granburch’s tasks all this time. How could he have a moment of leisure?

Chapter 204 Check Bourbon

Chu Ming was not happy at all seeing that he had just been brought back to the base by Vermouth and was about to be sent out on a mission again.

“Why don’t we just let Bourbon do the mission alone? I think he can do it alone. I can go check on Akai Shuichi!”

Gin slowly put out the cigarette in his hand and sneered at Chu Ming’s suggestion.

“Why don’t you go alone?”

Chu Ming leaned over to read the mission content next to Amuro Toru, and shook his head like a rattle when he heard it: “Then let’s go together.”

“Some time ago, a new type of white powdery drinkable drug became popular on the black market. The user becomes energetic and excited in a short period of time, and can work all night without feeling tired. Two reckless peripheral members became addicted after taking it during a long surveillance mission. The investigation report from the experimental team has come out. Taking it can cause nerve poisoning, damage the heart and kidneys, and even cause brain tissue death—”

“I remember that the organization has expressly prohibited any contact with drugs.” Chu Ming frowned. After all, for people like them who live on the edge of death, any contact with drugs is tantamount to suicide.

“Oh, there are always some things that are unclear and short-sighted. Takeda Shinichi and Negishi Wada of Spider Mansion in Tottori Prefecture are the source of sales. Before you kill them, remember to ask where the goods come from. Is it still Myanmar?”

Bourbon had just finished reading the mission details and nodded when he heard this.

Although he has been very busy recently, the organization wants to crack down on drugs, which is a good thing for the country. No matter how busy he is, he will squeeze out time to go.

Chu Ming dusted off his clothes and said, “Okay, Bourbon and I will collect some relevant information this afternoon and set off in the evening. Bourbon will drive all night, so we will arrive around noon tomorrow~”

Toru Amuro looked at Chu Ming, who spoke the words of an evil capitalist with a calm face, and his eyes flew towards him like knives.

Chu Ming didn’t notice Bourbon’s death gaze at all. Instead, Gin disagreed with Chu Ming’s statement.

“You are going to complete the mission. When you come back, you can rent a car for him to drive. You should still take a plane when you go.”

“…”

Looking at Gin who was blatantly helping his younger brother to bully him, Toru Amuro could not help but sneer and draw out his tone to express his dissatisfaction.

“You should remember that I am an intelligence officer, not a driver? Your operation team transferred me here just to drive? This doesn’t seem to be in line with the organization’s regulations–“

Chu Ming said in an impatient tone: “Bourbon, you are so long-winded. I will go to investigate this afternoon. You go buy the tickets and we will take a plane. It’s just a small matter. Why don’t you just tell me? You keep fussing about it. Are you a grown man? Tsk, your intelligence team is troublesome.”

???

Looking at Chu Ming who was blaming others, Toru Amuro felt that he was almost out of breath. When would this team end? Ever since he teamed up with Granburch, he was either on a mission or on the way to a mission. He was often blamed by him and embarrassed by him. The intelligence he collected was not as much as when he was in the intelligence team.

But Gin had promised him before that he would introduce him to the BOSS after the team-building period was over. He had been undercover for so long and finally found a way to meet the BOSS. No matter how difficult it was, he would persevere.

Although his mind was full of thoughts, his face showed no flaws and he still looked extremely angry.

“Okay, Granburch, don’t be so blunt. Be more tactful next time. The members of the intelligence team are very sensitive and they will misunderstand~” Vermouth tried to smooth things over with a smile.

Of course, it would be better not to fight at all, as this would only add fuel to the fire.

At least Bourbon could hear her sarcasm.

But before he could fight back, Chu Ming grabbed his shoulders and led him out: “Alright, alright, you are a sensitive intelligence officer, so I, as your big brother, will give in to you. Come on, I will take you to complete the mission–“

After watching Bourbon and Chu Ming disappear at the door for a while, Gin relit a cigarette, with smoke rising up, and looked towards the door with an obscure look.

“Vermouth, check Bourbon.”

Vermouth was originally leaning against the wall, her fingers circling her long hair out of boredom. She raised her head after hearing this: “What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with him? Did sweetheart say that?”

Gin bit his cigarette butt, standing straight: “No, but I smell something wrong on him–“

“…” Vermouth curled his lips without leaving a trace, “Without any evidence or explanation that can be put on the table, we can’t torture Bourbon. After all, he is also Rum’s confidant.”

“So I asked you to check. Where did Rum bring him into the organization?”

“About five years ago, Bourbon was brought in by Rum as an intelligence dealer. At that time, Rum already had Curacao by his side, so he placed him directly in the training camp for peripheral members. Later, he met Scotland in the training camp. Both of them were good at fighting. After completing several missions perfectly, they were reused and given code names. Rye also rose to prominence at the same time as them. The three of them were in the same team. Later, Scotland died and Rye defected, so Rum transferred him to the intelligence team.”

Gin stood up and walked out, his cold voice coming with the wind.

“One team, two undercover agents. The remaining one might be a big problem. Go check it out first and report to me if you have any information. But if Bourbon makes any unusual moves, Granburch will not take it lightly.”

Chapter 205 The gap is a bit big

“Negishi Wada loves to drink. I’ve already contacted him. Let’s meet tonight at Box 12 on the second floor of YTH Bar in Tottori Prefecture. You know how to drink Bourbon, right?”

As soon as he got off the plane, Chu Ming asked Amuro Toru while walking. Anyway, it was impossible for him to drink another drop of alcohol!

Amuro Toru was wearing the disguise of a sloppy uncle who looked like an unrespectable man, and he said nothing.

“Bourbon, are you talking?” Chu Ming turned his head. He also had a weak face. Although he looked like a frail scholar, his eyes and eyebrows were affectionate and his face was like white jade. Anyway, he was many times more handsome than Amuro Toru’s face.

“Don’t you think there’s a big difference between our faces?” Toru Amuro took out his cell phone and looked at his face with the reflector on the back.

“Really? It’s all the same. Don’t be so picky. I’m asking you something serious. Can you drink?” Chu Ming waved his hand nonchalantly.

“…Yes, wouldn’t you?”

Chu Ming waved his hands, trying to cover up the fact that he was drunk after one glass of wine: “I am a sniper. Drinking affects my shooting speed because alcohol paralyzes me. So I won’t touch alcohol.”

Bourbon’s eyes flickered slightly. Could it be that the organization’s sniper’s self-control was so strong?

Chu Ming continued, “I got some new truth serum from the experimental group. Potter has improved the traditional truth serum. After taking it, it can act on the receptors in the human brain and spinal cord, weakening the activity of part of the brain, making people involuntarily speak the truth. Potter said it is better to take it in a drunken state. After waking up, the user will only think that he has blacked out. When you drink with Negishi later, drop this into his drink. After finding out the truth, pretend to kill him by accident.”

Toru Amuro nodded and took a small bottle handed to him by Chu Ming. There was a thin layer of transparent solution in the bottle.

When we got to the second floor of the bar, Negishi was already waiting in a private room.

“Gentlemen, please come in, come in.”

Negishi Wada did not doubt anything because of the way Chu Ming and Amuro Toru were dressed. On the contrary, it was this attire that made Negishi trust them even more.

After all, how many drug buyers have they not come into contact with? These two buyers are thin, have sallow complexions, and dry skin, and it is obvious that they have been immersed in drugs for a long time.

Negishi Wada has been doing business for many years, and he believes that his eyes are extremely sharp. He can tell at a glance whether someone is here to trade or the police are here to investigate.

This bar is where he does long-term transactions. If there is anything wrong with the people who come to trade, he can stop them at the door.

“Mr. Negishi, let’s not beat around the bush. How much of the latest Alpha 0127 can you provide?” Chu Ming sat on the chair after entering the room. Even his voice sounded weak, and he looked like a drug addict.

Negishi Wada showed an obscene smile: “Mr. Jiang Shang is straightforward, there are new products, but this price——”

“Heh, Mr. Negishi, as long as you can ensure the quality, money is not a problem.”

Chu Ming waved to Amuro Toru, who opened a box he had been holding in his hand. It was filled with stacks of banknotes, all of which were portraits of Fukuzawa Yukichi.

Negishi Wada seemed unconcerned, but his burning eyes betrayed him: “Okay, I won’t waste words. Seven hundred thousand per pound. We will use puppets to transport the goods to ensure safety.”

Chu Ming signaled Toru Amuro to fill his glass, raised his glass to Negishi Wada and said, “Mr. Negishi, it’s a pleasure to work with you. I’m allergic to alcohol, so I won’t drink with you. In order not to spoil your fun, my brother can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, so today he will drink with you to your heart’s content!”

Amuro Toru also smiled and said, “Mr. Negishi, I toast to you.”
