"Cough cough cough..." Amuro Toru coughed violently for a while, then wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and shook his head slightly, "It's okay. It feels much better to spit out this congestion."
"Why did this place become like this? What did that woman from Belmode do?" Chianti couldn't help but complain.
"Let's get out of here first. The police have set up an isolation zone here. If you stay too long, you may be noticed." Toru Amuro regained his composure and said calmly.
So the three of them left here in a hurry. They thought they could take a rest after three days of hard work, but in the end they had to run around in the middle of the night.
Amuro contacted Belmod via phone and soon received the meeting location - another hidden base of the organization.
An hour later, the three of them, holding back their anger, finally found the place and met Belmode.
"You're a little embarrassed. From the looks of you, it seems like things didn't go well. Did you fail?"
Belmode was sitting behind a desk, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, looking very relaxed.
The wine matched the color of her lips, which were bright red, and Calvados, standing behind her, stared intently.
"Disgusting behavior," Chianti said with unabashed disgust.
"Indeed, as you said, the operation failed and encountered a series of changes. Now Numabuchi Kiichiro is still in the hands of the Osaka police."
Toru Amuro didn't mince words, but his eyes were fixed on Bermod.
"I will take responsibility for my failure. What about you, Belmod? What's going on at the institute? Where are the researchers and the Sherry people?"
Belmod looked at him with a half-smile, "I still remember her..."
"Don't talk nonsense, you should know better than me how much the organization values her!" Toru Amuro said in a bad tone.
"Actually, I don't attach as much importance to her as you think." Belmod took a sip of red wine and said slowly, "It has been difficult to achieve results. The higher-ups are actually a little impatient with her."
"This is not the reason for you to cause trouble on purpose!" Toru Amuro leaned forward, pressed his hands on the table and stared, "Why do you do these things? You know that you have to bear the consequences of doing these things!"
"Yeah...why?" Belmod stared at the wine glass, slightly absent-minded.
"Are you asking me?" Toru Amuro was a little impatient. What on earth is this woman doing?
Belmode did not explain the reason, but just talked about what happened. She chuckled and said: "You are the person in charge of the research institute, so it seems that I should report the incident to you?
But I didn't take action against her, I just kindly told her the truth of some things.
For example... you were the one who directed her sister to commit a bank robbery, and you also knew the order to deal with her sister in advance and did not stop it.
Of course there are other truths, so I won’t go into details one by one.”
Toru Amuro's expression suddenly became distorted. He did know about this from the beginning, but at that time he didn't know that the peripheral member to be dealt with was Miyano Akemi!
There are three tasks he took over from Gin: bank robbery, assassination of Shizuo Komemon, and elimination of traitors among peripheral members.
Belmod volunteered to take over the last task, but did not tell him the details, so that he only found out after the incident that he had unintentionally sent Miyano Akemi to hell.
It is true that Belmode did not tell any lies, but the partial truth is sometimes sharper than lies.
Before leaving, he had just let Shirley cheer up a little bit. When the latter learned about this, he would undoubtedly regard him as a hypocritical and cunning guy.
The last ignited hope was shattered. You can imagine how desperate Shirley was. There was no need for Bellmode to do it himself. Shirley would have sought death on her own!
And before he died, he must have been filled with extreme hatred for himself, right?
Compared to Gin and Belmode, who showed malice from the beginning, I am afraid that I, the guy who "pretends" to express kindness, is even more unforgivable!
When he thought of this, Toru Amuro became a little unsteady on his feet. Seeing this, Chianti quickly helped him.
Belmod looked at his appearance and said with a bit of boredom:
"Whether it's because of Shirley herself or because you are obsessed with this position and power, your current appearance, Bourbon, is really disappointing. You are not at all as calm as before."
"Do you think everyone is treated as special by that adult as you are?!"
Before Tohru Amuro opened his mouth, Chianti couldn't help it anymore, pointed at Bermod and started scolding him.
"You can make mistakes, once, twice or more, and that adult will not do anything to you, but we are not as lucky as you!
You guys don’t understand at all that we people who are struggling on the line of life and death can’t be so leisurely and calm!”
Belmode glanced at Chianti, slightly amused, and then looked at Toru Amuro, "Shirley is not dead."
Amuro Toru was startled for a moment, but then became even more angry, "That's enough! Belmod, no one has time to play games with you. Isn't it fun to play tricks on people?!"
Belmod's expression did not change, and he still said calmly: "This is a fact. I didn't say that Shirley was dead just now. It was just your own guess, right?"
Amuro Toru was suddenly enlightened. He frowned and thought for a moment. It was true that Bermod had never said that, but because the latter had a precedent of killing Miyano Akemi, he subconsciously thought that she had used the same method to deal with Shirley.
"I wish she had died like this. That would have saved a lot of trouble, but it's a pity that she escaped."
Belmod's face was full of regret, "So, your next task also includes tracking down Shirley and catching her.
Of course, in fact, I don’t need to say these things. Rum will soon assign you a task, and I will not interfere in your affairs in the future.”
Belmode stood up slowly and looked at Chianti again, "You made a mistake about something. No one in the organization can make a mistake without being punished. Moreover, sometimes death is far easier than living."
She walked past Toru Amuro, paused for a moment, put her hand on the latter's shoulder, and whispered: "This position is more difficult to sit in than you think, you have to be mentally prepared, Bourbon.
The knife in your hand is absolutely not allowed to have any thoughts of your own. Only by obeying orders 100% can you gain trust.
And once you are no longer trusted, you can probably guess what will happen."
After speaking, Belmode left directly with Calvados. Just when she walked to the door, Toru Amuro suddenly spoke.
"Gin's situation seems to be far worse than I thought."
Belmod paused, but did not turn around.
Amuro Toru raised his head and regained his composure. He looked at her back calmly and said, "Otherwise you wouldn't use such a stupid method to try to prove that without Gin, the situation would be too bad to be dealt with."
"Is this how you understand it?" Belmode chuckled, noncommittal.
Toru Amuro's tone was very firm, "However, if you do this, it will only be counterproductive. The upper-level controllers of any organization will not want to see an irreplaceable member."
Belmod didn't say anything, just waved his hand and left a message, "If you go forward, you can't turn back. Bourbon, I wish you good luck."
