When Gin saw the box full of bombs, his heart skipped a beat.

He has faced countless life-or-death situations in his life. He has been held at gunpoint, had a knife to his neck, and was even once locked on by an opponent with a sniper rifle for three whole hours.

But never before have I felt so frustrated.

A bomb, a suitcase... no, maybe the other suitcase too!

Heart rate monitoring device.

If Miyano Akemi gets emotional and her heart stops beating, or if she is determined to die together with others, she can press the detonation button.

The three of them went to heaven together, leaving behind not even a complete corpse.

It would be a lie to say he wasn't afraid. Gin is human too, and he's afraid of dying.

He's just better at hiding his emotions than the average person.

But Gin is Gin after all.

He was panicking inside, but his face remained cold and expressionless.

His mind raced.

If a direct confrontation doesn't work, should we shoot her?

My heart stopped the moment I killed her; it exploded like a bomb.

Should we rush up and pin her down?

It's still unknown whether she has a detonator switch.

This woman is like a human nuclear bomb; you can't touch her, you can't provoke her, you can only stroke her fur.

He had an idea in mind.

We need to keep her calm first, then look for an opportunity to turn the tables.

Gin chuckled coldly and said, "Miyano Akemi, you... are quite good."

Akemi was taken aback—she hadn't expected Gin to suddenly praise her.

It's like a venomous snake suddenly flicking its tongue at you, but instead of biting you, it compliments your beauty.

Mingmei clenched her fists, watching him warily, wondering what he was up to.

Gin continued, "Your performance was excellent, beyond my expectations. You've passed and can officially become one of us."

When Mingmei heard this, she almost laughed in anger.

She bit her lip until it turned white: "I refuse to be complicit with you! I want you to release my sister! I want to leave the organization with my sister!"

Gin took a slow, deliberate drag on his cigarette and exhaled a cloud of white smoke.

The smoke dissipated in the sea breeze, and he looked at Mingmei through it, his eyes as cold as ice: "You have no idea how important your sister is to the organization."

"It seems Sherry didn't tell you—what she's researching."

Akemi was stunned.

She knew her sister was doing research in the organization, but Shiho Miyano never said what her research was, and she never asked.

She knew the organization's rules—don't ask what you shouldn't ask, the more you know, the more dangerous it is.

Gin looked at the expression on her face and knew he had guessed correctly.

He added slowly, "Your sister took over your parents' job—developing a miraculous drug for the organization."

"The boss won't let her leave. Unless she dies."

These words were like a needle, piercing Mingmei's softest spot. Her face turned pale instantly.

She thought of her parents.

Her childhood memories are hazy, but she still remembers her father working late into the night in the lab, and her mother hugging her and her sister and telling them, "You must live well from now on."

Later they "died in an accident"—that's what the organization told her.

Gin, observing the changes in her expression, knew he had seized the initiative.

He said coldly, "I guess... your idea of ​​leaving the organization with Sherry is just wishful thinking on your part, right? Sherry has no idea."

Akemi didn't say anything.

She lowered her head, bit her lip, and her shoulders trembled slightly.

Gin knew he was right.

He breathed a sigh of relief, knowing the situation had stabilized, but his face remained calm: "Give up on that idea."

"Shirley won't go with you. If you don't believe me, give her a call."

He took his phone out of his pocket, dialed a number, and then casually tossed it aside. The phone arced through the air and landed at Mingmei's feet.

Mingmei looked down at the phone, hesitated for a few seconds, and then bent down to pick it up.

She held the phone to her ear, her heart pounding.

The phone rang twice before being answered.

A familiar voice came through, its tone extremely cold: "What is it?"

It was Shiho's voice.

Upon hearing that voice, Akemi's nose immediately stung with tears: "Shiho, it's me... it's Akemi."

Shiho Miyano on the other end of the phone was visibly taken aback: "Sister? How did Gin's phone end up with you? What did he do to you?"

"No, I'm in his hands now—" Akemi quickly said, "I've caught him! Shiho, this is my chance to get you out of the organization!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone.

That silence was like a dull knife, cutting into Mingmei's heart again and again.

Her hand holding the phone was trembling, and her heart was beating faster and faster, so fast that she could hear the blood rushing through her veins.

Then Shiho Miyano spoke up: "Sister, I will not leave the organization."

"I'll stay here and continue Mom and Dad's research. You can leave on your own."

Akemi's mind went blank, as if something had snapped.

She opened her mouth, as if to say something, but her throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton, and she couldn't utter a single word.

She could no longer hear what was being said on the other end of the phone.

She simply hung up the phone silently, the phone slipping from her hand and falling to the ground with a thud.

She felt like a joke.

After doing so much, risking jail time to rob a bank, and even wearing a bomb vest to fight Gin, what was the result?

Her sister didn't want to leave at all.

Everything she did was just wishful thinking!

At that moment, Akemi felt like a clown!

Although Gin couldn't hear what was being said on the other end of the phone, he could tell from Akemi's expression.

Her eyes went from despair to utter despair in just a few seconds.

He spoke coldly, his voice carrying the composure of a victor: "Did you hear that? Not everyone hates the organization like you do."

"Without the organization, Shirley had nowhere to continue her research."

He paused, watching the light in Mingmei's eyes gradually fade.

But he didn't dare push too hard!

He also saw that Mingmei's chest was heaving more and more violently, her breathing was becoming more and more rapid, and the indicator light on the heart rate monitor was flashing faster and faster.

If her emotions continue to break down and her heart continues to beat too fast, then the three of them will have to continue their journey together.

Gin quickly spoke up, his tone softening slightly: "So, if you still want to stay with your sister, there's only one way: join us and become one of us."

"Considering that your whole family works for the organization, I can assure you that you sisters will be able to live together then."

These words were like a straw, offered to Akemi who was on the verge of drowning.

She hesitated for a long time.

Many images flashed through her mind—playing with Shiho in the yard when she was little, when her parents were still alive, when the family hadn't fallen apart... Those were good times.

After hesitating for a moment, she finally nodded.

Seeing this, Gin breathed a long sigh of relief.

Finally, they managed to convince the woman.

I escaped with my life!!

........................

The hotel has a private swimming pool.

The water rippled, and the lights reflected on the surface, like stars scattered on the ground.

Lin Shen had just climbed out of the pool, water droplets trickling down his muscle lines.

He picked up a towel and dried his hair, then saw Mingmei walk in looking lost and dejected.

She seemed to have lost her soul, and she was walking on air.

She walked to the poolside, sat on a lounge chair, and looked at Lin Shen with a wry smile: "Mr. Moriya... you... guessed right."

As she spoke, her eyes reddened again.

But she held back her tears.

Akemi took a deep breath, her tone carrying an indescribable emotion: "You guessed everything from the very beginning...every detail...every step was calculated...how did you do it?"

The look in her eyes as she looked at Lin Shen was one of almost worshipful admiration.

This man never made a mistake from the beginning—he guessed that Gin would use his sister to pressure her, guessed that Shiho might not want to leave, and guessed that Gin would ultimately have no choice but to recruit her.

He had calculated everything.

Lin Shen smiled but didn't say anything.

This is not hard to guess.

If Gin doesn't die with Akemi, then the only option is to recruit her!

Of course, this is not absolute.

If Gin weren't afraid of death, then all three of them would have perished together.

Aside from guessing wrong, Lin Shen suffered no loss.

He walked over, plopped down next to Mingmei, put his arm around her, and pulled her down onto the sofa.

He was incredibly shameless, brazenly declaring, "Don't worry, one day I will make sure you sisters can leave the organization."

Akemi's eyes lit up instantly, like a drowning person grabbing onto a piece of driftwood: "Really?"

Lin Shen nodded, making a grand promise without batting an eye: "Really."

He thought to himself: Anyway, it's a matter for the future; whether it will work out is another matter. But first, I need to keep her calm and collected. This woman is his most important pawn right now; I can't let her fall apart.

When Lin Shen said "really," his face didn't even turn red.

He held Mingmei in his arms, and Mingmei looked up at him, her eyes filled with emotion and admiration!
