"Why are you so late? If you have a mission at night, shouldn't you save your energy during the day? And why are you so busy all of a sudden?" She had a lot of questions to ask, but when she saw Winnet's expression, she stopped, "Answer me when you wake up."

"It's just that the higher-ups assigned me a task, as usual."

"This is different from usual." She pouted, "You must be hiding something from me again. If you tell me, I can help. I'm involved in all aspects of materialization."

After listening to her, Winette's eyes became serious and she said, "You can't get involved in my things. Even if you don't know about them, you know what they mean... It's of no benefit to you to become my accomplice. I don't want you to get involved in those things again..." She felt that her tone was a little too harsh, so she yawned casually again and walked towards the stairs.

"If you don't want to tell me, then don't tell me!" Xiao Ai gritted her teeth and snorted.

She wasn't angry. She was different from those ignorant girls. She knew Winnet's concerns - everything was for her own good. But the more she thought about it, the more she felt that there was a gap between them, not only in terms of physical size, but also in terms of the soul. The physical distance was shortened, but the soul seemed to be far away.

Winnet is not the type to speak her mind.

This was the only way she could comfort herself.

……

Winnett returned to the room and pinched her arm.

This was the first time she spoke to Xiao Ai like that.

Miss Pastor is kind to everyone, especially to her loved ones.

Winnett said to herself, "I don't know. I've never encountered such a situation before. I always try to avoid making choices as much as possible. But now, I may have to make a choice. But if we leave the organization, where will we be able to stay?"

"I'm scared."

Winnet murmured in a cold voice.

She lay down on the bed and took a nap. After getting up, she checked the things she brought with her across the ocean and found the diary that had been gathering dust.

"Maybe you'll give me an answer, right?"

Winette opened it after a long absence.

On a new page, the redemption diary reads:

[Mission: Destroy the human trafficking run by the Matsuba Society.]

[Note: The president of the Matsuba-kai, Eba Kyohei, reached a deal with Kumagawa Shinnosuke, and used the excuse of recruiting foreign talents in companies in Southeast Asia and other third world countries, and paid to deliver "goods" to Kumagawa's auction. One of the chiefs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Mabe Yuya, was their accomplice. You knew that it would be meaningless to just deal with Mabe Yuya, so you decided to destroy the Matsuba-kai's business. ]

"There's nothing wrong with getting a reward. Maybe you can get a special item to protect Ai."

Miss Winnett regained her energy.

She called Bourbon and after a short wait she heard his voice, which surprised her by its spirits.

He said, "You are really enthusiastic about your work, Miss Abbey. I just cooked Beef Wellington. Would you like to have some? Um... it's not time for lunch yet. I just had a detective commission, but I turned it down. Just as I thought, you are really eager."

Hearing what Amuro Toru said, Winette stretched her shoulders and said, "Wouldn't it be better to take a vacation after finishing the work at hand? Anyway, the organization doesn't stipulate working hours. The sooner you finish the vacation, the longer the vacation will be, and the higher the evaluation will be. It's really a conscientious company."

Conscientious enterprise?

Criminal organization!

The corner of Amuro Toru's mouth twitched.

This Ablis is really unconventional in her speech, but since she is on vacation, it seems that she is not usually very busy. From this point of view, she does not have another busy identity like Vermouth.

As for him, he still has several identities to play, and he has not been to the Public Security Bureau for training in the past two days.

"It seems that you live a very comfortable life."

Winnett did not deny it. For her, life is not boring as long as she goes to church from time to time. She has not received any wedding or other business yet. Although a couple has booked a wedding, they hope that a respected pastor will help them preside over the wedding. Fortunately, there is an old pastor among the couples recruited by Miss Fantian Qian. He has retired for a while, but due to the financial situation of the family, they can solve this problem. This is also the reason why she can act freely until now.

Despite this, she did not completely let it go. She still showed up at events and made some policy decisions.

"The important thing is to enjoy it, which I didn't understand before, but a lot of people tried to teach me," she said.

This sentence overturned Amuro Toru's cognition again.

The crazy Abris seems to have become rational again, and even made some achievements on the philosophical level.

A person with extremely wide range of interests, sometimes crazy and sometimes rational.

She cannot be guessed by common sense and is also an extremely difficult person to deal with. In contrast, Gin is very easy to understand, and as for the Rum hidden somewhere, he has not yet come into contact with him.

But judging from Gin's attitude, Rum and Abris don't seem to get along well.

Maybe it's because of her decisive style of doing things.

An hour later, Winette showed up at Toru Amuro's house and said casually, "Bourbon, I think you can consider working as a chef in a restaurant. I can't say whether you can be the head chef, but you should be the master chef."

"Even though you said that, you are actually very confident in your cooking. The previous evaluation doesn't seem to be given by someone who doesn't know much. Or are you a food critic? But they are often good cooks themselves. However, you are right. I can find a job in a restaurant as a cover. After all, I am just a detective on the Internet, which is actually the same as being unemployed in the eyes of some people."

Although he has a job, he cannot speak.

"Oh, remember to tell me about the restaurant where you work part-time... maybe I can stop by once in a while."

Amuro Toru didn't expect her to say this, "Are you around here?"

It took Abris an hour to get here. This time was most likely a smokescreen. At least we can't judge the distance by the time. She didn't even drive and might have stopped on the way.

"Who knows? Phantoms are silent and omnipresent."

"Okay, okay, there's nothing wrong with you pretending to be a phantom. I've simulated your performance in the venue many times in my head, and I definitely can't do it... Abby, I'm more interested in you now. Isn't it time to tell me your next plan? Although I also have a few plans to find them, I'm most curious about your idea now."

Winnet wiped her mouth with a napkin, "I don't like to complicate things, let's just use the simple one."

"Simple?"

"Yes, that's the simplest way. You just need to play your true self and be a cunning intelligence dealer... Oh, no, your profession also needs to change a little! You have to be a notorious mercenary who likes alcohol, women and money, and does everything, including kidnapping. With this, you have a tricky cargo and want to take action against them, and they will be attracted by this gimmick."

He had thought about playing the role of a kidnapper, but gaining trust was a difficult problem, and there was a chance that the disguise would be exposed, so it was not a very good strategy.

but--

"Tricky cargo... cargo, what is it?"

"Lend me your computer."

He took out the laptop and gave it to Winnet. After she operated it, the computer flipped over and he could see the flat screen. There was a news report on the screen, saying that a war broke out between two small countries in Northern Europe, and one of them was almost destroyed. Because it was a historical issue, the international community did not intervene. Winnet switched to another website, which contained a photo of a very beautiful woman with long silver hair and violet pupils.

"You don't want to..."

"Yes."

“This is crazy,” he said.

After expressing his opinion on the plan, Toru Amuro could not help but feel a little worried - would Ablis ask him to play the role of this foreign princess again? Winnet switched the web page interface, and a video appeared on the screen. In the video, there was a man about 25 years old, smoking at the door of a convenience store. He looked ordinary, and Toru Amuro did not know Winnet's intention.

"He is an employee of a company under the Matsuba Society. After using my connections, I learned that he often travels to Vietnam and other Southeast Asian countries." Winnett said, picking up her knife and fork again and cutting a piece of steak. The dessert included orange juice, which she liked.

"You are going to follow him." Amuro Toru said knowingly. Following this man, there is a high probability that they can find the base where they hide the "goods". With Abis's disguise, it is not difficult to replace him. But first, they have to pry enough information from this man, otherwise the plan will easily fail.

"He comes from a divorced family, has a mother to take care of at home, and also has a girlfriend," Winnett explained.

"Threatened him," Amuro Toru's tone changed slightly, "If it's for his mother, he should tell us everything, but what should we do afterwards?"

"It doesn't matter. The Songye Society will become a thing of the past anyway."

Winette adjusted her posture and put the computer aside so that she could eat comfortably. Amuro looked at her with surprise. This was not what they had agreed on. It was undoubtedly difficult to destroy the Matsuba Society. But it was destroyed. There was no need for such a sinful group to exist. This view actually agreed with him. Whether he jumped out to refute Abbes or dissuade him, he would appear timid and even reduce her favorability. Since she was so confident, she must not be joking.

"It's not appropriate to become a thing of the past. They should be reduced to ashes, otherwise a second or third one will grow out of their corpses. That's what gangs are."

"You have a dark sense of humor."

He smiled appropriately. He could hear the sound of the fire burning in his heart. Whether in the public security or the organization, it was undoubtedly a blessing to be able to do what he thought was right. What did Bourbon do? It was just a few damned guys dying. Putting them in jail was a waste of food. Nothing was more suitable for them than the judgment of death.

Yes, trial.

He inexplicably liked the words used by Ibis, which reminded him of the passion he felt when he first entered the police academy. However, his original goal could no longer be achieved. In order to avoid more regrets, he had to do his best in everything he did.

He went to the corner of the room, picked up the guitar he had carefully cared for, and played a tune briefly.

"Hmm - humor," he said. "You wouldn't ask me to play the princess, would you? I'm not the right size."

"If you want, I can give it a try." She followed his words and smiled. When asked what the song was, he said he didn't know, but he had heard someone play it often before.

He shook his head: "One bad experience like this is enough. I'd better play the role of a mercenary. Anyway, with this hair and skin color, I look like it, and I have a few scars on my body. To be honest, I hated being mistaken for a foreigner the most before, but this look can come in handy occasionally." For example, now, and when he has infiltrated the organization.

"Indeed, you look quite frivolous. If your expression was more appropriate, you could be a soldier...but other preparations are still needed," she said.

He laughed nervously: "I'll just take it as a compliment from you."

After the meal, they were busy again. First, they had to prepare. The carbine was a popular weapon on the battlefield. Winette helped Amuro Toru buy a set of military uniforms online that were even shabbier than the smelly socks with holes that he had worn for a month. From the pictures, they looked like "artifacts" just unearthed from under a tank. Winette asked him to take off his shirt and drew a bunch of various scars on his body, new and old. His face was too clean, so Winette replaced it with a long scar that stretched from his forehead to his forehead, making it look like he had been hit by a bayonet at an angle.

This finally creates a weathered feeling.

This was just the first step. Winnett also booked a special photo shoot, which she got from some other criminals. The types of photos are extremely rich, and they also undertake the production of fake passports and other documents. She scheduled the time for tomorrow, with a jungle background, and several actors with distinctive looks and different races prepared. For this, she had to pay a good price. It didn't matter, the organization would reimburse her anyway. After she finished communicating, it was already evening. At this time, they could find the man in the video. Clyde had already investigated his duty list and knew that today was his night duty day.

"Where's the address?" she asked on the phone, her eyes never leaving the TV. The TV was showing the accident that happened on the ship yesterday, but the most crucial thing was covered up. She guessed that the Japanese public security was involved. If such a big scandal was reported on TV, the people involved would lose face.

She got the answer from Clyde, it was a company called Shijing Trading.

A search on the Internet revealed that it was just a shell company with poor business conditions and only registration information.

"…It seems that, at least for a short period of time, the man called Funami will not be able to organize similar trading locations. Those who once participated will also stop and will not be active at this cusp."

Amuro Toru concluded when he saw Winnet hang up the phone.

"This is also the period for the Matsuba Society to prepare goods." She stood up and stretched her stiff body. "They are in urgent need of goods that are attractive enough, and you can provide them."

"If you put yourself in someone else's shoes, it's really tempting, provided everything is true."

“People want to believe what they want to believe.”

Winnet commissioned Candy to create a fake website to spread the news that the princess was kidnapped. After all, a small country at war doesn't have many channels to spread information. It's impossible for the so-called missing princess to come back safely in just one week and then make the whole world know about it.

"You're right..." He shrugged, marked the organization's base on the map, and drew a red circle in it. "This is not bad. It's suitable for a lawbreaker to live in."

"It's geographically in line with expectations. But it still needs to be renovated to make it look more like a gloomy lair."

"Go over and take a look?"

She readily agreed. When passing by the mall, Winnet bought a bowl of popcorn to relieve her boredom on the way. The destination was an unused auto repair shop. The damaged parts looked like a mountain of garbage. It was said that there were motorcycle gangs nearby, so almost no one would come. The smell of motor oil in the shop was shabby. The two looked at each other helplessly and began to do the minimum cleaning work to make it look like a place where people live.

In fact, the recycling company has a lot of war-damaged furniture, and they just need to buy it back there and transport it here in a van. After tossing until late at night, this place finally began to look like something, and gave people a feeling that the people living here were either homeless or criminals.

Winette lay on the rotten sofa and said to Amuro Toru, "You have to live here for a while. Try to use everything you can and get some dandruff and other things... You have to let them know that you have been living here for quite a while."

"Oh, this is terrible." He looked at the mess here and complained, but he didn't really care. Abbes asked him not to take a shower and try to look as decadent as possible. These two days were just enough time for a little stubble to grow, just like he had just shaved. He checked the environment and found that there was really no basis for cooking here.

For the food waste - that's what Winette said, she wanted him to bring more junk food, like pizza.

Which means they'll have to eat pizza tonight.

Amuro Toru said: "Actually, you don't have to stay here with me..."

"Don't be so conceited." Winette rolled her eyes at him. "It's not that I want to stay with you, but I have things to do in the evening. I've been working overtime today, and I need to take advantage of my free time to rest well before starting the next job. I also need to 'negotiate' with that man and find someone to replace him. As for this person... I have to borrow someone from Gin."

"You mean vodka?"

He thought about it and decided that neither Cohen nor Chianti would work, as one was taciturn and the other was crazy. The only one who could be considered alert was Vodka. It was said that there was a new core member, but she was a foreigner and speaking Japanese was enough to ruin the show.

"No, Vodka's size is too different from his." Winette said, "There are many grassroots personnel in Japan, and many of them have performed well... like you in the past. For this group of people, the key to being given a code name is personal ability and loyalty, but how to reflect them? This is about the ability to execute the task. I think most people will not refuse the opportunity to show themselves, but I don't have a suitable candidate, so I thought of asking Gin to borrow... Although he doesn't manage them, he has a complete list and the power of life and death over them, and he speaks much more than you and me, because he is that person's confidant. Even Rum may not be trusted as deeply as Gin."

"I see." Amuro Toru said. He was still very curious about the relationship that Abis mentioned. Because he had not received any direct orders from the boss, he could not receive any core secrets from the inside.

Although he is an intelligence officer, he still takes the field route.

But the Ablis in front of him was different from him, at least she was more trustworthy.

"So, have you already chosen this candidate?" he asked gently.

Winnet only had a list of some of the people, and logically she couldn't contact them personally. But she knew which ones the organization really needed, and there was a man she was very optimistic about. He was very cautious and loyal, and even if there were some flaws in his abilities, as long as he was used in the right place, there would be no big problem.

"Ryukumichi Kusuda." Winnet said.

"It seems that this person is also special." Just because of Ibis, Toru Amuro looked up to this person.

"This mission was originally assigned by Gin, so it's reasonable to borrow something from him." She murmured.

"Kusuda plays the undercover agent, I am a mercenary and kidnapper, and Ibis plays the princess... How should we close the net?" asked Toru Amuro.

"You have to act to the end. For such a precious 'commodity', the boss should personally inspect the goods."

"You plan to capture them all in one fell swoop? But what are you going to do when you are in the middle of the enemy?"

Amuro Toru looked at Winnet's expression and thought that even if she could deal with several people at the same time, it would be difficult for her to defeat several people with guns and sticks with bare hands or even with restricted movements. Speaking of the insider, the character played by Kusuda probably doesn't have this ability yet.

"It's your turn again now."
