Amuro Tooru glanced at Kurosawa.

He was still looking at the computer screen and didn't seem to notice us.

But Amuro is transparent white.

Vodka's actions at this moment must have been at Gin's behest.

He realized that he had not yet truly gained the trust of the two of them.

Amuro Toru shrugged.

Fine.

If you don't want me to see it, then you don't want me to see it.

These things really can't be rushed.

But since Gin was willing to let him come along...

That means there is hope.

He believed that one day...

He could openly see Gin's computer screen.

……

A few hours later.

A burst of fire followed.

In the picture, the evil dragon tramples the hero under its feet and flies away arrogantly with the princess in its mouth.

All that remained was the ruined castle and a small, weeping figure representing the king in a corner.

The game screen freezes at this point, signifying that the dragon has once again successfully abducted the princess.

Kurosawa put down the mouse with satisfaction, rubbed his wrist, and looked at Vodka and the other man who were removing the coating from the gold brick.

The 15,000 gold coins were melted down and recast into approximately 300 large gold bars.

Kurosawa picked up one of the pieces and weighed it in his hand, quite satisfied with its weight.

Kurosawa pulled out a large black bag from a corner and put the gold bricks on the ground into it one by one.

After Vodka and the other man finished unmolding, Kurosawa handed the task over to them.

He sat on the stool and watched them.

As he turned the bag over, Amuro Tooru seemed to smell a strange odor.

"What was this bag used to hold before?"

"It's probably someone's corpse?"

Vodka said somewhat uncertainly.

"Sometimes we bring the bodies here to be burned."

He pointed to another stove.

"The bag should have been burned along with the contents, but I don't know why it was left behind."

Upon hearing Vodka's words, Amuro Tooru fell silent for a moment.

"...Was that furnace specifically used for cremating corpses?"

"Not really. Sometimes, evidence that is difficult to destroy is also brought over and burned."

"Oh, and there's also my older brother's..."

"Vodka!"

Kurosawa interrupted Vodka before he could finish speaking.

Vodka realized he couldn't say this in front of outsiders, so he immediately shut his mouth.

Amuro Tooru was somewhat curious.

But judging from Vodka's demeanor, he clearly didn't intend to speak again.

He planned to ask again when Gin wasn't around.

The two quickly filled the gold bars with them.

Upon seeing this, Kurosawa stood up.

"Let's go."

……

The three of them got back into the Porsche.

After gold coins are converted into gold bars, they take up significantly less space.

At least Amuro Tooru won't be squeezed anymore.

"Big brother, shall we go?"

Vodka asked the question as usual.

Kurosawa didn't answer directly, but instead glanced back at Amuro Tooru.

"Where are you going? I'll take you home first."

Amuro Tooru was somewhat flattered.

Of course, that's just on the surface.

Gin will not let him know where he is.

Amuro Tooru was well aware of this.

So Amuro Tooru wasn't surprised to hear that Gin had chosen to give it to him first.

However, this cannot be shown on one's face.

So, he smiled and, looking quite pleased, gave an address.

Of course, it's fake.

This is at least two streets away from his residence.

Kurosawa nodded upon hearing this, indicating that Vodka should go there.

Vodka had no objection upon hearing this and started the car immediately.

……

late at night.

A Porsche stopped on a street.

Amuro Tooru opened the car door and got out.

After thanking the two men with a smile, he prepared to leave.

"and many more."

Kurosawa stopped him.

"Take those with you."

Kurosawa pointed to the bag containing gold bricks in the back seat.

"What?" Amuro Tooru asked, somewhat puzzled.

He suspected that he had heard wrongly.

"Take those with you and exchange them for cash."

"This is your next task."

Kurosawa offered a few words of explanation, which was unusual for him.

Amuro Tooru's smile froze.

He understood that this was a test Gin was giving him.

And what the test is about.

The question is whether he can convert these gold bars into cash without attracting the attention of the police.

After all, the Italian gang had just been silenced.

If at this moment someone suddenly appears and dumps a large amount of gold.

This will inevitably attract the attention of the police.

However, if this gold were taken directly to the black market for exchange...

Its price will also decrease significantly.

Gin's demand was clearly to exchange all the gold for cash without compromising its value.

In other words, he was going to give Gin around 600 million yen in cash.

If converted to US dollars, it would be nearly four million.

This is difficult...

Amuro Tooru felt he was in a difficult situation.

But he certainly wouldn't refuse Gin's request.

After all, the more difficult the task, the more trust he would gain upon completion.

Amuro Tooru then silently dragged the bag off the back seat of the car, indicating that he would definitely do his best to complete the mission.

"Don't let me down, Bourbon."

Kurosawa gave him a satisfied look, left a message, and then signaled that Vodka could leave.

Amuro Tooru watched them leave.

He didn't look away until the Porsche's taillights disappeared from sight.

Just as he was thinking of returning to his residence to think about how to complete the task,
