The call was not interrupted, nor was the signal bad. It was simply that Akai Mary did not give any instructions.
But continuing to drag it out like this is obviously not a solution.
Serabelle was too lazy to think too much and asked the question he thought was most valuable.
"Who is your boss and where is he now?"
"You mean the boss?"
Pisco's mocking voice continued to come from the sack.
"Well, although this matter is kept secret by most of the people in the organization, I think it doesn't matter even if I tell you. The boss's name is Karasuma Renya. You may find it unbelievable, but the fact is that the organization is still controlled by him."
Karasuma...Isn't that the largest conglomerate in Japan that Zhenchun had mentioned before?
"Okay, I remember."
Serabelle said seriously.
"So the second question is, where is this Karasuma Renya now?"
"……what?"
As if hearing some incredible question, Pisco paused, all the ridicule disappeared, replaced by complete amazement.
"You really don't know anything. Let me put it this way. No one can find the boss's location. Not even you, not even us, not anyone."
"What's the reason?" Serabelle asked, still unconvinced.
"..."
Pisco simply didn't answer.
"Okay, thank you for your cooperation then."
After saying this, Serabelle opened the lid of the cement mixer next to her and threw the sack of pisco into it.
Put the lid on and start the blender.
The noise of the blender drowned out Pisco's cries. Soon, as the water flowing into the blender through the pipe came into contact with the quicklime and cement dust inside, white mist immediately rose from the gaps in the blender.
Thinking that the pisco inside should have been covered by cement, Serabelle unplugged the power connector of the mixer, raised her leg and kicked the mixer and the person into the sea, splashing a huge splash of water on the sea surface.
"52.5% marine cement shouldn't crack, right?"
Looking at the dark ripples rising on the dark sea at night, Serabelle muttered something to herself, but quickly put the question behind her and turned to walk towards the parking lot.

Under the lights of the dock road, the driver's door of the Audi was opened from the outside.
Serabelle got in the car and sat behind the steering wheel. She skillfully pulled out the seat belt from the location where her DNA was engraved and put it on. Then she glanced at the silent British girl in the passenger seat.
Mary Akai still looked the same as before he got off the car, holding her cell phone in both hands and looking calmly ahead.
"Ms. Mary?"
Serabelle asked tentatively.
No response.
"Mary?"
Serabelle tried a different name.
As if the voice activated some switch, Akai Mary blinked, came back to her senses, and turned her head to take a look.
Serabelle thought she would ask as usual, "Have you finished all the finishing touches?" and then nod and say "Let's go" after getting a positive answer.
But he didn't expect that the next second a pair of slender arms would go around his head and around his neck.
Not a chokehold, just a hug.
The British girl reached over the gear lever between the front seats and hugged him without saying a word, but her expression was filled with a confusion and vulnerability she had never felt before.
Chapter 207: People live for Akai Mary
If you were to ask Serabel what kind of person Akai Mari is in his eyes, he would probably answer that she is a calm, strong and decisive person.
This has become clear after more than ten years of getting along with each other.
Whether at work or in life, no matter how difficult the problem is, Mary Akai will never be discouraged or give up. Instead, she will think about solutions and possibilities as soon as possible, try her best to overcome all difficulties and obstacles, and finally reach the other side of success.
But this was the first and only time that Serabel remembered that Akai Mari showed such vulnerability in front of her.
Serabelle herself has never had any religious or group beliefs, so she doesn't know what it feels like when her faith collapses, but that's the feeling Akai Mary gives her now.
It was as if something that he had been holding on to in his heart for a long time completely collapsed and disintegrated in an instant.
Is it because of what Pisco just said?
Serabel couldn't figure it out and didn't want to guess, so he chose to ask directly.
Unbuckling the seat belt around the girl's waist and picking up her small body, Serabel lowered her head and wrapped her arms around her soft waist.
"Ms. Mary, are you okay?"
No response.
It was not until several seconds had passed that the British girl, who had curled up in his arms like a little animal, nodded gently and hummed softly.
This is clearly not what “nothing is wrong” looks like.
Serabelle continued to comfort him, "Don't worry, I've already dealt with Pisco, and there's no evidence left. What's more, even if something is wrong at the dock tomorrow, they'll only find that a blender is missing. With this level of loss, the most they can do is buy a new one, and there's no way they'll spend a lot of money to salvage it."
The sound of the two people's conversation stopped in the car. Akai Mari lowered her head, and the curly golden bangs on her forehead blocked the light, casting a large shadow on her face, blurring her expression, and her voice was intermittent.
"... Well, you've worked hard... Let's go back, it's getting late now."
?
A big question mark appeared above Serabelle's head.
Admittedly, there are a few more words than before, but it still feels wrong.
This can't go on...
After whispering an apology, Serabelle held the girl's face with both hands, and forced Akai Mari to raise her head from lowered state, forcing her to look into his eyes.
With the street light shining in from the car window, there was even a hint of despair in the British girl's eyes.
Serabelle was slightly startled, but quickly suppressed her emotions and spoke word by word.
"Ms. Mary, what happened to you?"
"You...didn't you understand..."
With the boy holding her face and forcing her to make eye contact, Mari Akai's eyes barely regained a glimmer of spirit.
She raised her hand and grabbed Serabelle's wrist, motioning for her to let go. As her fingertips touched skin, she sighed lightly and spoke slowly.
"If according to what Pisco said, if there really is such a so-called jointly signed undercover list between the intelligence departments of various countries, do you know what this means?"
"mean……"
Serabelle was also suddenly stunned.
When he was at the dock before, he was only focused on prying open Pisco's mouth, and did not think about the specific meaning of what the other party said.
Now that I think about it, if the top leaders of various countries really united and sent a bunch of investigators to infiltrate the Black Organization, it would be easy to destroy them.
After all, it is foolish for any non-governmental organization to confront the power of a country, just like using children's building blocks to compete with a hammer.
Even if the building blocks are big enough, it only takes a few minutes to smash them all into pieces as long as you swing the hammer.
In other words, success or failure depends solely on whether you want to or not.
But even under such circumstances, the Black Organization has existed for more than half a century.
This is of course due to the fact that the Black Organization is cautious and works hard to expand its influence. For example, even the president of Mitsubishi Motors, a giant in the Japanese automobile manufacturing industry, is one of their members.
But there are probably more reasons...
"Understand?"
Akai Mary shook her head.
"If what he said is true, then the purpose of the intelligence agencies of various countries, including MI6, sending investigators to infiltrate as undercover agents was not to destroy the Black Organization from the beginning. It was purely to wait for the development of the magical drug that can make people rejuvenate to be completed under their supervision, and then work together to seize the research results."
"And those investigators who were sent in as undercover agents never imagined that the undercover mission they had taken, at the risk of their lives, for the sake of world peace, would end up being a complete betrayal."
As she spoke, a helpless smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.
"When my body was transformed into this state, I was still thinking about tracking down that organization and obtaining the antidote to return to my original body."
"But after being in Japan for a while, I gradually feel that there is nothing wrong with my current body. On the contrary, I have more time to spend with you, Bell, and Zhenchun. My life is no longer like when I was in the UK, where I was pressed by various tasks every day and had a rare day off."
"It's incredible, but sometimes... I even think this might be the legendary blessing in disguise."
Akai Mari stretched out her arms and wrapped them around the boy's neck again, tightening the hug and closing the distance.
"But I've never said this to you. I just thought about it in my heart. After all, we came to Japan for my sake. It would be a great disrespect to you and Masumi for what you and Masumi have done so far to give up all of a sudden."
“It’s just that now I have to revisit this issue.”
Mary Akai's speech was not fast and her voice was very soft, but every word she spoke seemed to be carrying a thousand-pound weight on the tip of her tongue.
"No matter how powerful a person is, there is a limit. It is impossible for him to fight against the whole world. If the price of revenge is to drag you and Zhenchun into eternal damnation, then... it's not impossible for me to give up. And as I said just now, there's nothing wrong with this body now."
"No, I don't think it's nice."
As soon as he finished speaking, Serabelle took over.
"Of course I'm not saying that you're not in good shape now, Sister Mary. What I mean is, if Sister Mary plans to settle down in Japan with us in the future, never come back to Japan, no longer be involved with MI6, or even not restore your original body, then that's fine... But I have to eliminate all threats to us. Now that I've taken this step and entered their sight, I have no choice but to go all the way."
After thinking for a moment, Serabelle added another sentence.
"Don't worry, I will protect you and Zhenchun, Sister Mary. Besides, what the old man said may not be true, right?"
"Bell..."
As if shocked by the independent opinion expressed by the young man in front of her, Akai Mari opened her mouth slightly with a look of surprise.
But soon this surprise turned into gentleness and relief as gentle as water.
"Really? The little kid back then has now grown into a man who can stand tall and proud."
Chapter 208 The fragrance of heather in the car
Kenzo Masuyama sank into the sea at 7:30, while Serabel and Marie Akai stayed in the car at the port until after 9 o'clock before leaving.
It was completely dark as the Audi left the Tokyo Bay Terminal and headed back to Beido Town. The wheels rolled forward while the streetlights on both sides of the road quickly swept backwards one after another.
Inside the car, Serabelle held the steering wheel with one hand and glanced at the navigation screen. The current time was displayed in the upper left corner.
9:23 pm.
It's a little late.
The blonde British girl in the passenger seat was half lying in the seat with her eyes half blurry, with her seat belt fastened around her waist very obediently, and an air of laziness emanating from her whole body.
"Feeling better now?"
Serabelle asked while staring straight ahead at the road conditions.
Although he did not mention who he was asking by name, there were only two people in the car, so it was obvious who was asking whom and there was no need to think about it.
Hearing the words of the young man behind the steering wheel, Akai Mari exhaled slowly, sniffed the heather scent that still remained in the car, and hummed lazily.
"I am relaxed, but I have almost no strength to move. After we park the car at the bottom of the hotel, Bell, you carry me up."
"What if someone sees us in the elevator..."
"If they see me, then so be it. Anyway, you and I are not much younger in appearance, so it won't matter if we are seen."
The British girl said slowly with a nonchalant look on her face.
It is said that mental state is mostly linked to physical state, and Akai Mary is no exception in this regard.
If Serabelle wanted to hug her in public at other times, she would definitely refuse out of shame, but this is an exception as she is now exhausted after a "fierce battle".
In this state, Mari Akai will fall into a subtle state of tanking, no longer caring about the opinions of people around her, even if her daughter sees her in person.
