In the shopping mall, a young man wearing a black sweatshirt and hat walked slowly in front of the major shelves.
Occasionally stop and think about which item to choose.
In the end, they all were thrown into the shopping cart at the back as if they had given up on themselves.
The blond man and the black-haired man were wearing common black suits but unusual sunglasses. The two men, who looked like social elites, were pushing shopping carts behind the boy. The scene was particularly eye-catching.
After all, most of the people who appear in the food section at this time are housewives.
Three young men appeared among a group of women, the only ones who stood out.
Shuji Tsushima looked back at the ingredients in the shopping cart and nodded. Although he couldn't finish the food, it didn't matter. Just choose happily when buying.
There are still a few things left to do...
"How could there be less wine?" Tsushima Shuji chuckled.
Of course, shopping malls also sell wine, and there are many varieties, although most of them are wines with no collectible value.
"This, this, and this, um...and this and this..." Shuji Tsushima selected several bottles of wine.
Put them into the shopping cart one by one.
Then he turned around to pick up a bottle of wine, but met another hand halfway.
Both hands stopped in front of the same bottle of wine.
"Hey? Mr. Okiya, we meet again." The young man looked a little dazed, as if he was surprised by this coincidence.
"You are not allowed to drink underage?" the pink-haired man said with a squinted smile.
"...Of course it's not me who drank, it's just that they like to drink." Shuji Tsushima glanced at the two men behind him.
"Does Mr. Okiya like to drink too?" he asked politely.
"I'm used to having two drinks before going to bed...but my drinking capacity is very poor..." Subaru Okiya said with a smile.
"That's right..." The black-haired boy with wild eyes nodded thoughtfully.
"Your bodyguards also like bourbon... I also think bourbon is very good." Okiya Subaru took the initiative to find a topic.
"What they said... As long as it's wine and the taste is pure enough, they all like it." The black-haired boy with wild eyes lowered his eyes. Half of his face under the hood was pale and cold, and his tone of voice had no clear meaning.
"That's true, but I think bourbon tastes better, after all, it tastes sweet." Subaru Okiya nodded and said clearly.
"I can't talk to you about this topic. I'm just a minor who can't drink." The young man sighed and said helplessly.
It's just that he secretly owns many bars and goes to them from time to time.
On the surface, he is still a well-behaved, self-conscious, good boy who never drinks.
"Then let's talk about this after you can drink." Subaru Okiya smiled nonchalantly, picked up a bottle of bourbon, and put it in his cart.
Although we met by chance, he actually visited the supermarket and bought some things.
Although he is not good at cooking, the character he assigned to Subaru Okiya is someone who can cook, and for this he still needs to learn how to cook.
"Then I'll leave first." The pink-haired man waved his hand and pushed the cart away.
After turning his back to them, he still had a smile on his face. It wasn't until he was completely far away from their range that the smile on his face subsided.
The wines in the shopping cart include Scotch, Laphroaig, Barolo, and Arak.
The last bottle Tsushima Shuji wanted to get was bourbon.
That is the code name of the blond man following the other party in the organization - Bourbon.
In that case...
Could the other four bottles of wine also be a hint?
But... maybe those four bottles are not all.
There may be two bottles among them that Shuji Tsushima put in to confuse the two of them.
After all, it is a bit strange to only buy wines with their code names.
Okiya Subaru's green eyes opened with solemnity.
…
After Subaru Okiya left, Shuji Tsushima slowly put a bottle of bourbon into the cart.
"This is the second chance encounter. Guess how many times we will bump into him today?" Shuji Tsushima asked lazily as he stepped on the shopping cart and leaned his upper body on the handle of the cart.
Seeing that the whole person was about to get into the shopping cart, Toru Amuro picked him up.
"Three times, because... if it's more than three times, it's a bit too much." Midorikawa's voice was gentle, but his sea-blue eyes under his sunglasses were cold.
"Then, let me ask, where will we meet by chance for the third time?" Shuji Tsushima clapped his hands, his voice brisk.
"When leaving." Toru Amuro answered.
"So, let's see if this is the case? Let's wait and see~" Shuji Tsushima said happily.
"Are you buying these wines as a reminder to him?" Toru Amuro asked, but he just looked at the five bottles of wine neatly arranged in the shopping cart.
Bourbon, Scotland, Laphroaig.
Three bottles correct.
Barolo, Arak.
Two bottles of fake.
"Why don't you put in the black wine that represents yourself?" the blond man said with a raised voice.
"Huh? What are you talking about? My code name is obviously Barolo." Shuji Tsushima had an expression on his face that you, the guy, couldn't understand.
"...Oh." Toru Amuro responded dryly.
The familiar feeling started, Kaa started to lie again.
Like this, Bourbon, Scotch, Laphroaig, and Barolo, these are the four code names that Kaa plans to reveal to Shuichi Akai.
So...what about Arak?
Is it used to confuse people?
"Isn't he living on the floor below us? On the same floor as Sakai." Toru Amuro said matter-of-factly, as if he had seen through what he was thinking.
"He"? Does he mean Arak?
Arak and Laphroaig live on the same floor?
"You know there is a singer living downstairs, right?" Shuji Tsushima asked.
"I do know..." Amuro revealed her natural expression.
Amilin, a male singer, lives downstairs from them. We meet him occasionally but never say hello.
It turns out that he is also a member of the organization. No wonder I always want to stay away from each other every time I see him.
But Kaa didn't say anything, so he didn't care.
After all, if Kao didn’t mention it, you don’t need to pay too much attention to it.
Arak, also known as arrack, is a white spirit with an alcohol content of over 70, also known as lion's milk.
This codename sounds...
That guy is pretty strong.
"So you just sold everyone else?" Toru Amuro twitched.
Without hesitation, he disclosed other people's codenames to the FBI...
But this style is indeed in line with Kaa's always willful style.
"I'm just giving him some hints, after all..." The black-haired boy with wild eyes smiled softly.
"I am a poor little person who is targeted by the organization and can only work hard to seek salvation." He sighed, seemingly true and false.
"I am an undercover righteous police officer who has no choice but to pretend to be a villain. What about you?" Amuro Toru thought for a while and said seriously, then looked at Midorikawa Mu.
"...I am a complete villain." Midorikawa Mu was silent for a moment, helplessly cooperating with his friend's performance.
