Gin doesn't want to work hard

"can!"

"I really didn't... anything?"

Rum instinctively wanted to say, as originally planned, that he really didn't have any more.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that what Gin had just said was different from what he had imagined.

Rum was somewhat surprised, and he asked again.

"what did you just say?"

Kurosawa glanced at him indifferently.

How much wealth does Rum possess?

Kurosawa had already investigated thoroughly.

The things Rum just mentioned.

That's pretty much all he has to offer right now.

Besides, he couldn't go too far in front of the boss.

Having achieved his goal, Kurosawa didn't want to waste any more time, so he agreed immediately.

But judging from Rum's current reaction, he seems to still have some ulterior motives.

Seeing this, Kurosawa didn't tolerate him and retorted sarcastically.

"What, you want to give me a little more?"

"you……!"

Rum was taken aback and fell silent.

The boss saw that the two had reached a consensus.

We were about to get down to business.

This time he came to see Rum.

Aside from listening to Rum's report on related work.

And one more thing.

Gin happened to be there too, so he could say it all at once.

"Gin, rum."

"There is a task that requires your cooperation soon."

"The fact that lawmaker Shigehiko Tomoguchi accepted bribes has been exposed."

"We need to silence him before the police arrest him."

Upon hearing that it was a mission to silence witnesses...

Rum immediately lost interest.

This kind of task can be left to Gin.

As for him, once he finds out Shigehiko Tonoguchi's whereabouts and finds a suitable sniping spot, the rest is up to Gin.

Although Rum doesn't like Gin.

But he still acknowledged Gin's abilities.

but……

Although the target is a member of parliament.

But a task of this level shouldn't require the Boss to give specific instructions.

Or is there something special about this mission?

Sure enough, the Boss continued speaking.

“Pisco has taken on this task.”

"All you have to do is cooperate with him."

Pisk?

Upon hearing the code name, both Kurosawa and Rum frowned.

That old codger who relies on his seniority, does nothing, and likes to boss others around?

Clearly, Kurosawa and his companion did not have a very good impression of Pisco.

The Boss continued speaking.

“Pisco’s plan also needs Vermouth’s cooperation.”

"Gin will be in charge of contacting Vermouth."

"I understand."

"I'll have Vermouth contact Piske."

Kurosawa immediately passed the matter to Vermouth.

Now that you have Vermouth, you can't come looking for him anymore.

The Boss also understood the meaning behind Kurosawa's words.

But he didn't say much.

Anyway, they just need to cooperate with Pisco to complete the mission.

As for the specifics of how they cooperated, the boss didn't want to get involved.

Kurosawa could use Vermouth as a shield, but Rum couldn't.

After all, Vermouth was indeed more familiar with Kurosawa than with him.

Rum remained silent for a moment.

What the boss said next silenced him even more.

"As for Rum, you go and contact Pisco first."

Rum reluctantly agreed.

Think about it from another perspective.

He also has considerable seniority within the organization.

Pisco couldn't very well rely on his seniority to get ahead of him.

After explaining the situation, the Boss hung up the video call.

Seeing this, Kurosawa walked towards Rum.

"What do you want to do?"

Rum immediately became alert.

Kurosawa ignored him and simply pulled out the chair next to him and sat down.

He demonstrated his meaning through his actions.

Rum was somewhat embarrassed by the sight.

His overreaction is truly unbecoming.

But it's not a big problem, at least no one saw it.

Rum comforted himself with this thought, and silently moved his chair a little further away from Kurosawa.

……

Kurosawa called Vermouth.

It's 3 a.m. in Japan.

That would be evening for the United States.

At this time, Vermouth is most likely awake.

that's the truth.

Kurosawa's call was answered shortly after it connected.

"Hey, Gin?"

"What brings you to me?"

Vermouth's slightly languid voice came through.

Without wasting any words, Kurosawa told her directly about Pisco's situation.

"You want me to go back to Japan?"

Vermouth was silent for a moment, seemingly deep in thought.

However, she quickly agreed.

"no problem."

"I'll go back after I've finished dealing with things here."

"It will probably take another two weeks."

Two weeks?

Does that sound a bit long?

However, Kurosawa didn't care about any of that.

The timing issue can be handled by Pisco and Vermouth themselves.

Seeing that Kurosawa did not object, Vermouth acquiesced to the timing.

As for Pisker?

Who is that?

Vermouth said she wasn't familiar with the situation.
