Toru Amuro's body reacted faster than his brain, and he stood up in an instant to hold up Angstra who almost fell to Shirley.
Morohoshi, who was sitting opposite, also made a move. He came to the opposite side and wanted to touch Angstra's body to check his condition. However, Toru Amuro blocked his hand with a cold face and touched his carotid artery first.
Check your pulse everywhere.
I felt nothing with this touch, as if I was touching a recently deceased corpse.
Amuro Toru's expression became even uglier. Shirley, who had not undergone any physical training, was the slowest to react. She had never encountered such a situation before. She did not come back to her senses until the other two made their own moves.
"Gray?!"
What sounded at the same time as Shirley's exclamation was what happened at the crew table not far away from them——
The fat man among them grabbed his neck with a livid face, and made a strange sound of "thump, thump, thump, thump, tack, tack, tack, tack, tack, tack, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, boo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, hoo, oooo, ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
"Ahhhh!!" The passing waiter screamed like an alarm.
Toru Amuro was supporting Angstra, and when he saw something happened next to him, he immediately reacted: "The food here is poisonous?!"
He did not lower his voice deliberately. The other diners who heard his words dropped their chopsticks in unison, and some even vomited, fearing that they had just accidentally eaten something they shouldn't have.
Toru Amuro held Angstra's body with one hand, and took out his mobile phone with the other hand to dial the emergency number. However, before he could dial the number, he was held down by Morohoshi.
With his hand firmly pressed, Toru Amuro felt the real urge to kill Moro Hoshida for the first time: "What are you doing?!"
"Their situations are different. He is not poisoned."
Zhu Xingda put down his hands indifferently. He was the calmest among them.
"He has a special status, so don't attract attention." He lowered his voice and said to Toru Amuro, "And someone over there has already called the police and ambulance."
Toru Amuro tightened his grip on Angstra, and Morohoshi's words calmed him down.
From his angle, he could see the profile of the fat man lying on the table - his face was ashen, and there was saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth due to poor breathing. It was most likely that he died of suffocation caused by potassium cyanide.
It's not that Amuro's eyesight is so good that he can perform autopsies with his eyes, but in recent years so many people have died in Mikawa Town and nearby areas, and potassium cyanide, a strictly controlled substance, is so common that it's like buying it from a vending machine.
Angstra was different from him. His little boss's state was more like when he fainted due to stimulation at the training ground. But that time Gin took Angstra away, and he had no idea how his little boss woke up.
…
"Ms. Miyano, could you please call me and ask about Gin?"
Toru Amuro looked at Shirley, another code member who was present, and found that her body trembled after hearing Gin's code name. He remembered this detail and continued: "Not long ago, Gray also fainted like this with no heartbeat.
, Gin took him away at that time, and he came back normally ten minutes later..."
Maybe it was his pleading tone that moved Shirley, or maybe Shirley liked Angstra very much to begin with. Her eyes were scared, but she still took out her phone.
Her fingers slid across the screen of her phone. Perhaps because the address book was very long, she scrolled down for a while before finding Gin's number.
Toru Amuro watched her movements. From his perspective, he could not see the screen of her mobile phone clearly.
Shirley is a researcher of the organization, and there must be many scientists among her contacts. Such people have less blood in their hands than people like Gin. Their brain power will be beneficial to society if used in the right way, and they are very suitable to be incited to rebel.
Go and contribute to the country...
Amuro Toru sighed inwardly and lowered his head to look at the lifeless little boss.
Now is not the time, Angstra's situation is more important.
It's not that he was worried about him. As a low-level member, he came to have dinner with his boss, but his boss fell unconscious and fell to the ground for no apparent reason. Regardless of whether his identity was exposed or not, his undercover career was definitely over... maybe it was because of the bad information he read.
, but only a little bit, will not affect his decision.
Angostela closed her only intact right eye and leaned against him with a pale face, as fragile as a piece of paper that could be easily punctured.
Toru Amuro stared at him and couldn't help but reach out to smooth the bangs in front of his forehead. His palms were sweaty, and he lightly touched the bandage on his left eye with his fingers. Even though he knew it wouldn't hurt, he didn't dare to use too much force.
.
Someone started to maintain order in the restaurant, and Toru Amuro noticed that Yusaku Kudo walked up to the waiter and said something.
The helpless staff member nodded repeatedly and called for two waiters: "Hurry up and call back the guests who haven't gone far, as well as the group of college students who have requested private rooms. They have their phone numbers in the contact book."
"Go to the surveillance camera and find all the people who approached that table just now." He ordered another waiter.
Amuro’s transparent white-collar worker’s purpose for doing this is to find as many people who have dined here as possible to prevent prisoners from escaping from the mix; to check the surveillance that is more reliable than memory, some rookie prisoners may be photographed in the process of poisoning
.
but……
He looked at the people at the same table with the deceased. Most of the potassium cyanide crimes were committed by acquaintances. There were very few cases of indiscriminate poisoning. The people at the same table with him were more suspicious.
Shirley had finished talking to Gin on the phone, but she didn't put down her phone. A few seconds later, her phone rang again, and she immediately picked it up, her expression a little more relaxed than when she faced Gin.
Toru Amuro saw her reaction and knew that the person talking to her was definitely not Gin...who could it be?
"Spiatus said Gray will wake up soon." Shirley hung up the phone and looked at the time in the upper right corner, "Five minutes at most."
After confirming that Angstra was fine, Toru Amuro finally relaxed and started gathering information for his job: "I see that not long after you hung up the phone, Gin called, and he didn't see Gray's specific situation.
...Is he nearby?"
Toru Amuro has met Spiatus. This man obviously doesn't look like Angstra, but he looks very similar to Angstra, especially the way he stirs coffee, which almost overlaps completely.
It's not a physical resemblance. If we abandon science for a moment and put it in more fantasy terms... it's a spiritual resemblance.
"He was beside Gin and happened to hear it." Shirley didn't think much about it.
"So that's it." Toru Amuro nodded, and then asked abruptly: "Then how did he know that he would wake up in five minutes?"
Shirley was not choked by his sudden question. Her expression seemed to have expected him to ask this question: "he is omniscient and omnipotent."
