Chapter 258 Amuro Toru: You have the ability to open the door! (two-in-one chapter)
Upon hearing this, Spiatus was not angry at all.
He just sat there quietly, without any gin or rum, as he would have reacted violently when he learned that he was an undercover agent in the organization. It was as if he had just heard an insignificant thing.
"You knew they existed, why didn't you catch them?" Jing Baiye asked strangely.
Spiatus picked up the tea cup and took a sip. He did not answer directly, but asked: "Bai Ye, what do you think of undercover agents?"
Jing Baiye hadn't heard anyone call him by his real name for a long time, and was stunned for a moment.
He didn't know why Spiatus, the boss, wanted to ask him about the attitude of an ordinary member towards undercover agents. He thought about it and chose to tell the truth.
"Only elites with outstanding abilities will be sent as undercover agents, especially those from intelligence agencies from various countries who have received professional training... most of them are very capable." Jing Baiye paused and said something that would raise Ginjiu's blood pressure.
What he said in his heart: "If they don't cause me too much financial losses, I don't mind being colleagues with them at all."
"That's good."
Spiatus put down the tea cup, "Your thoughts are also my thoughts."
Qian Duoduo and Mo Ni ran over pushing the ball from a distance. When Jing Baiye saw the two of them having fun, he couldn't help but smile. He pushed the expensive-sounding tea cup to the center of the table to avoid them.
I accidentally hit the table and let it fall from the top.
"Do you know Ginjiu?" Jing Baiye is worried about the future workload of model workers.
"He doesn't know. Unlike me, he will never tolerate undercovers." Spiatus said, "My attitude towards undercovers has always been to let nature take its course. I won't go out of my way to find them, but if they have the ability
If it’s not enough, if other members find out their identities, I won’t let them go, and I will deal with them as I should.”
“What if they cause a lot of financial damage to you?”
Thinking of his villa that was destroyed on his fourteenth birthday, Jing Baiye was very worried.
"It doesn't matter. Even including your villa, the current financial losses caused by undercover agents in the organization are not comparable to the building Gin blew up thirteen years ago." Spiatus smiled.
"You don't have to worry about my money. According to my calculations, if Gin works six more years, he can pay it off."
"…………"
Gin, I thought you were a model worker for the organization, but it turned out that you were better than an undercover agent at cheating the boss out of his money... Jing Baiye's expression became confused when he thought of how expensive his villa was.
Spiatus stood up, walked around the low table to Jing Baiye, bent down and touched his head.
"Don't worry too much about being an undercover. How you lived before will be fine in the future."
Jing Baiye felt that Spiatus was treating him like a cat, but he still nodded obediently.
Due to the height after sitting down, his eyes naturally fell on the three-legged crow at the hem of his black yukata. He vaguely felt that such a crow looked familiar.
"The clothes in this hotel are really nice and suit you very well."
"Thank you for the compliment. This is the yukata I designed." Spiatus smiled, "This hotel was opened when I first took over."
"Under the name of Karasuma Group?"
"No, this is the private property of Fenrir Crowe."
Jing Baiye was surprised, not only because he heard Spiatus' full name, but also because of the incident itself.
Spiatus' secret identity is the leader of a transnational criminal organization, and his apparent identity is the current chairman of Japan's top consortium. He is very busy no matter what job he is in, but he still has time to open a hot spring hotel?
"...Why?" He was puzzled.
"Have you paid attention to the staff at this hotel?" Spiatus did not answer directly.
"The female receptionist at the front desk has a disabled leg, and the waiter who comes to deliver food at noon has hearing problems..." Jing Baiye said what he saw, "The employees here seem to have physical disabilities."
"That's true."
As a hotel owner, Spiatus confirmed his suspicions and then stated the reason: "They are victims of the organization's past human experiments."
"In that experiment, some people succeeded, such as Bermod, Friedman, and Jerez... They even gained stronger physical fitness than ordinary people."
Jing Baiye was stunned.
He knew the dark and bloody history of the organization, the rise of Spiatus, and what happened to Belmode and the others, especially the part about human experiments, because he had contact with three... no, four victims.
Heard it from them.
Belmode is immortal, Friedman has greater strength than normal people, Jerez Brandy has the reflexes to easily dodge bullets, and Spiatus is a combination of them all.
Jing Baiye's system can see Belmod's ability values, but cannot find out the status of the three people behind him. There is only one sentence on it: Special people who have been transformed cannot be judged by normal human standards, and the results will not be displayed.
"But the success rate was less than one percent, and more victims died. Those who were lucky enough to survive to the end also had irreparable physical damage."
Spiatus's eyes were deep and calm. Jing Baiye didn't know what kind of mood he, who had also experienced human experiments, said this, and why he sounded like an outsider, without any disgust or hatred.
"Did you build this hotel to house them?"
"Yes. This is his wish. I promised him that I would save Belmode and other victims of human experiments."
……he?
When Jing Baiye heard this, he thought of another boss that would only appear at dusk.
He looked up at Spiatus, wanting to ask him what was going on, but after looking into those crimson eyes for a second, he suddenly felt very sleepy, as if he would fall asleep in the next second.
.
Such inexplicable sleepiness made Jing Baiye wonder if Spiatus had done something, but he quickly realized that the boss had no need to do that, and he didn't do anything to him, he just looked at each other.
Jing Baiye yawned, resisting the sleepiness and getting up: "I want to go back to sleep..."
As soon as he stood up, his legs gave way and he fell straight forward. Spiatus stretched out his hand to support him, but he didn't even have the strength to move his mouth and say thank you to him.
[System, this is...]
The system didn't answer. It hadn't said a word since Jing Baiye entered the room.
Spiatus patted him on the back: "Then you go to sleep first, I will take you down later."
It's a pity that Jing Baiye can no longer hear what he is saying. His eyes are closed tightly and his head hangs to one side. He has no way of knowing what is happening in the outside world.
Almost as soon as he closed his eyes, the smart bandages wrapped around his left eye, collarbone, and legs automatically loosened themselves from his body because they had expired for one month. They fell to the ground and disappeared.

Shuichi Akai is smoking in the smoking room outside the Ebisu Onsen Hotel.
Without Angstra watching from the side, Toru Amuro made no secret of his distaste for him. Midorikawa Xin... now it's time to call him Scotch. He openly tried to persuade him to make peace, but actually favored his friends. He couldn't break up with them for the time being.
Out of shame and wanting to smoke, I avoided it for the time being.
Shuichi Akai was the only one in the smoking room. He did not sit down, half leaning against the wall, looking at the tourists on the street outside through the transparent glass of the smoking room.
Being an undercover agent is a job that requires suspicion, so he made a lot of preparations before coming to Hakone.
Overall, it wasn't a big problem. He was used to Toru Amuro's behavior. The most troublesome thing was the Kudo family who were also in the hotel.
Since this family had met him at the beach a few years ago and he knew his real name, Akai Shuichi paid special attention to them after returning from Yokohama Chinatown in order to avoid them as much as possible - their family is a celebrity and has many fans.
Sometimes you can also see their family’s private itinerary posted by some fans online.
...As it turned out, during this trip, his family happened to stay in the same hotel as him.
Akai Shuichi slowly exhaled the smoke and thought about countermeasures.
The possibility that the Kudo family is a member of a black organization is actually low, but just in case, we still have to ask James and the others to check. Next month, the Kudo couple will temporarily fly to the United States. This is a good opportunity. The FBI is in the country.
Only in this way can you exert your strength better.
As for what to do now, he can only rely on him to improvise.
Akai Shuichi was very calm, and the situation was not dangerous at the moment, so there was no need for him to be anxious. He calmly stubbed out the cigarette butts and put them into his specially prepared pocket.
When he returned to the hotel, a woman wearing glasses and a haircut came out carrying a bag, passed him by, and left angrily.
Akai Shuichi noticed that the corners of her eyes were slightly red, and continued walking inside without stopping.
He was about to turn into the east corridor. At this moment, a girl wearing a hotel yukata ran out from another corridor on the opposite side. She looked around, walked up to Akai Shuichi and asked, "Sorry to bother you, are you there?"
Have you ever seen a woman with tied hair and framed glasses?”
Akai Shuichi lowered his head and glanced at her, and the girl's body trembled visibly.
...Is he so scary? Shirley and this girl, he scares them even if he doesn't do anything...
The FBI undercover agent felt helpless, but he would not care about the little girl who was about the same age as his sister. He told what happened when he came in: "There was a woman who left the hotel just now. I don't know if she is the person you are looking for."
"Thanks."
The girl thanked him and hurried out.
Akai Shuichi sneaked through the check-in register of this hotel before going out to smoke. In addition to his group and the Kudo family, there was also the Mori family living on the west side of the first floor.
It was probably a couple who had a quarrel and one of them ran away, leaving the child in the middle. Shuichi Akai had seen this kind of thing a lot and didn't take it to heart at all.
Japan is safer than the United States and some European countries at night, and it is a bustling scenic spot with many people. There are only a few guys who look like dogs like the two people in his room and have bad intentions towards minors... A weak teenage girl alone
Nothing will happen if you go out.
Just as Akai Shuichi was about to continue walking to Uzuki, the sound of wooden boards being stepped on suddenly came from the stairs not far away.
He subconsciously looked back and saw a man in a black bathrobe slowly walking down from the second floor with something in his arms.
Akai Shuichi recognized that this was the man on the stone bridge in the morning. He was also a member of the organization. Angstra said that his code name was Spiatus. These are not the point. The point is that the man in his arms is...
…Angstra?!
Seeing that the organization's junior boss, who was alive and kicking ten minutes ago, was now being held in someone's arms unconsciously, Shuichi Akai's face suddenly darkened.
After Spiatus came down the stairs, he walked straight towards Shuichi Akai, as if he didn't notice that he was wary of him at all.
"You came just in time. He fell asleep on the second floor. Please take him back."
…
Akai Shuichi brought Angstra to the door of Utsukijian, and Qian Duoduo lay on its shoulder. He held him with one hand, took out the wooden door card with the other hand, and swiped it on the recognition machine.
The door was opened and there was no one in the room. Akai Shuichi was temporarily relieved.
Fortunately, those two... Mainly because Toru Amuro was not here, otherwise I would have quarreled with him again when he came back with Angstra who was sleeping.
He helped Angstra take off her shoes, put on his slippers, quietly entered the bedroom, and locked the door.
He walked to the bed and put Angostela on it. Qian Duoduo climbed down his arms and jumped onto the bed.
Angostela was wrapped in a thin blanket, with only her head exposed. Her cheeks were pale and round, and the blush from the hot springs had long faded. There was no smell of blood on her body, and her breathing was steady... It seemed that it was really just...
He fell asleep, not because he was drugged or anything else.
The little bear with bat wings flew from the bedside table to Angstra's side, and looked at him with Qian Duoduo.
Shuichi Akai looked at this scene. Angstra, surrounded by pets, looked really harmless, making him feel like he had met the boy from five years ago again.
People always remember their first job and the first task they take on deeply, and Shuichi Akai is like this.
Even in the past five years, he still remembers the shock when he dug out a large amount of human flesh from the trash can, the disgust when the female ogre showed no remorse, and the nausea when he wrote down the details of her actions...
I remember that he and his colleagues watched the campus internal surveillance together to determine the specific time of her abduction.
The boy was only nine years old and was a child prodigy who was admitted to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He was thin and small and looked younger than his peers. One of his eyes was injured and he couldn't see, but he still smiled cutely and innocently.
Not only that, he would stop his classmates from laughing and insulting the female ogre's fat body, hold the woman's hand and say "Teacher, your cake is delicious", and celebrate Valentine's Day with the pervert who had bad intentions towards him.
When she sheds tears when she doesn't receive any roses, fold a beautiful paper flower for her, hold her in her arms and say, "I love your teacher, don't be sad."
Looking at the boy gently comforting the teacher in the video, I thought about the detailed record in the woman's notebook of how to dismember his body parts, cook them and eat them... A senior agent whose child had just celebrated his ninth birthday turned his head.
Quietly wiped away tears.
Akai Shuichi was twenty-two years old at the time. His family destined him to not be naive and gentle. He was calm, firm, and difficult to be shaken. It was the first time that he had such a strong feeling for someone who had nothing to do with his goals.
anger.
"..."
Akai Shuichi sat down by the bed. The bandage on Angstra's face disappeared. He raised his hand to push aside the bangs on his forehead, revealing the blind left eye. He knew that he had more such scars on his body.
He turned his head in silence and subconsciously touched the pocket where he kept his cigarette, but did not actually take out the cigarette to smoke.
He had known what was hidden under Angostela's bandages five years ago, he had seen his inspection report and the accompanying photos.
Angostura can arouse his desire to conquer, and Gray Crow can arouse his desire to protect.
The twenty-two-year-old Akai Shuichi cannot understand why someone would hurt someone who is kind to him; and the twenty-six-year-old Akai Shuichi plans to use the few teenagers in the organization in front of him who are kind to him to achieve his goals.
The goal all along.
Apart from not having a perverted hobby for Angstra that would warrant the electric chair, there seems to be no difference between him and the woman he once spurned.
This thought flashed through Akai Shuichi's mind, and his eyes fell on Angstra again.
...Did the man whose codename was Spiatus wrap him up too tightly? They just covered him with a blanket to prevent him from getting cold, so why did he wrap him up like this?
With this thought in mind, he took action, pulled away the tightly wrapped blanket, and spread it flatly over Angostela's body like a quilt.
Angstra was sleeping soundly. He moved his body and turned over towards Shuichi Akai, with one arm exposed.
The loose sleeves of his yukata were pulled up to his elbows, and his forearms were covered with tiny scars as hideous as spider webs.
Akai Shuichi, who had seen Gray Crow's physical examination photos with his own eyes, frowned. He remembered that most of the photos showed very shallow wounds, as if they had been lightly scratched by a utility knife, but now this kind of injury was a very serious cut.
...Why is this happening? Could it be that other parts of his body are also...
Shuichi Akai, who was extremely mobile, got up from the bed and lifted Angstra's blanket. He had the same kind of scars on his exposed calves and collarbone.
"…………"
Akai Shuichi frowned, glanced at Angstra's expression, and made sure that he wouldn't wake up in a short time. He went straight to loosen the belt of his yukata - during which Qian Duoduo rushed over to grab his palm, and was
He picked up the nape of his neck and put it under the bed - losing the restraint around his waist, the collar of his yukata slowly opened.
However, before he could continue to check, there was a sudden polite knock on the door.
"Stars, it's me." Scotland's voice sounded outside, "Has Angstra come back? There are his shoes at the entrance."
"He's already asleep." Akai Hide replied without changing his expression.
Qian Duoduo, who was thrown out of bed by him, ran to the door of the bedroom, pressed his paws on the door and scratched hard, making a sound like human nails scraping a blackboard, and also let out a loud meowing cry from his mouth.
There was a sudden silence outside.
Immediately afterwards, there was a rapid "dong dong dong dong dong" knock on the door.
At the same time, Toru Amuro's unceremonious voice came: "Morohoshidai, open the door!!"
