Gin likes me?

As a subordinate, you always have to let your boss have some leverage over you.

As for whether such a reputation would cause Kurosawa Hotaru to misunderstand...

Uozuka Saburo felt that he seemed to have several girlfriends and he didn't know when they started their relationships. Kurosawa Hotaru never seemed to be interested in them, but she knew everything clearly.

"I'm sorry, this is my mistake, but I am a woman after all. Sometimes I should be careful to keep a distance from someone who makes me feel dangerous. It should be understandable."

Kusora nodded gently, and in the face of Uozuka Saburo's teasing, his answer was very natural.

However, the words she answered made Uozuka Saburo speechless.

But would Uozuka Saburo be embarrassed by such ridicule?

That is obviously impossible.

"That makes sense. As a lady with outstanding looks and a great figure, it's totally fine for her to be a little more careful."

Nodding in agreement, Uozuka Saburo carefully looked at Kusora from head to toe with his eyes behind his sunglasses. Although he was wearing sunglasses, his fiery gaze made Kusora feel as if he had taken off all his clothes, and he couldn't help but take a step back.

"I've heard that the Kusora members under Mr. Rum are rare all-round experts in the organization. I'm looking forward to the opportunity to carry out missions together in the future. I believe that will be a very good experience."

"You're too kind. My abilities are limited. I usually only take care of some simple housekeeping work beside Mr. Rum. Field work is a bit too difficult for me. It's better not to cause trouble for you, Mr. Vodka."

Shaking his head decisively, Kusora knew that he could not continue to waste time here with Uozuka Saburo.

If it comes to talking, she is definitely no match for Uozuka Saburo.

There is no way to talk it out, let alone fight...

Faced with this abnormal being who was suppressing him in all aspects, Kusora felt that it would be wise for him to keep his distance.

Kusora, who didn't care much about his appearance, felt panic for the first time in his life because of his outstanding appearance.

If, she meant if, Uozuka Saburo really was attracted by her beauty and wanted to attack her as rumored in the organization, Kusora didn't dare to imagine what she would face then.

The first thing that is certain is that Rum will never offend Uozuka Saburo for his own reasons.

In this case, maybe I would really follow Rum's orders, wash myself and run obediently to Uozuka Saburo's bed.

Although he is a killer and psychological quality is the most basic requirement, Kusola absolutely cannot accept such a result.

Having made up her mind, Kusora quickened her pace, leaving behind the confused Uozuka Saburo, who was at a loss as to what to do.

They were able to communicate normally at the beginning, so why did Kusora's eyes suddenly become so sad and alert after he was silent for a moment?

Didn't this woman think that he would really do something to her?

Damn it, my reputation in this organization really can’t be reversed, right?

The complaints in his heart surged like the tide, but Uozuka Saburo knew that things had developed to the point where it was no longer possible for anyone to believe his explanation.

Whatever happens, he doesn't plan to have any close relationship with the women in the organization anyway. It would be better if people in the organization think that he is a dangerous scum. Only in this way can he live up to his current identity as Vodka.

"Welcome back. How was your holiday?"

With a calm expression, he walked into the office door that Kusora opened. Looking at Rum, who was still obscured by the same light and shadow in the room, Saburo Uozuka narrowed his eyes slightly behind his sunglasses.

After several modifications, the sunglasses that Saburo Uozuka now carries every day are products of the laboratory under the name of Ayako Suzuki.

With built-in night vision and sensitive perception and capture of light, Uozuka Saburo can quickly adapt to various lighting conditions, so that he can wear sunglasses even at night without being affected.

When he got the glasses, Uozuka Saburo's first thought was to use the sunglasses to seize the opportunity to meet Rum and take a good look at what this man who had been hiding in the shadows and never revealed his true face looked like.

After all, as long as Uozuka Saburo remembered Rum's appearance, he could use his memory to replicate it.

Then, he can let Rum understand what it means to be noticed by the world's top killer!

But unfortunately, perhaps it was because he discovered from Uozuka's previous mission reports that Saburo Uozuka's sunglasses were a bit special. Even in the shadows, Rum was wearing a pair of huge sunglasses that completely covered half of his face, making it impossible for Uozuka Saburo to determine what Rum looked like based on the exposed part.

"It's OK. We had a lot of fun. So, after the complicated tasks are completed, we must have a vacation to relax. This has always been difficult for our organization to do!"

Nodding with a smile, Uozuka Saburo sat down opposite Rum without hesitation, flipped the wine glass on the table on the desk, then selected a bottle of whiskey, unscrewed the lid and poured himself a glass.

"There are people who treat the organization the same way they treat their company, but you, Vodka, are the first one who dares to say it in front of me."

There was some information in his tone. Rum took the glass of wine that Uozuka Saburo poured for him, but he held it in his hand without rushing to drink it.

"What does it matter? I can't change jobs anyway, and if I change jobs, I might not get such good treatment. I have worked so hard to get to this day."

After drinking the whiskey in one gulp, Uozuka Saburo breathed a sigh of relief.

I have to say that the wine in Rum's office is all good! It seems that Rum is not the kind of person who is devoted to the organization and never cares about his own quality of life.

"You can't deduct my year-end bonus for something like this, Rum."

"Haha, of course not. The organization has never deducted funds from any member."

Rum laughed out loud at what Uozuka Saburo said.

"That's good. Well, tell me what troublesome task you need to assign to me this time."

Playing with the wine glass in his hand, Saburo Uozuka casually looked at the rum in the shadow.

Although due to his current status and ability, Uozuka Saburo can behave very casually when facing Rum, but Uozuka Saburo himself is very clear where the line is.

As long as he maintains a positive attitude when facing the tasks assigned by Rum, Rum will have great patience to tolerate his "insolence".

"It's not a troublesome task, but I do have some ideas that I want to put into action later. But before that, I may need to ask for your opinion first."

Putting the wine glass aside, Rum crossed his hands and supported them on the table. Although both of them were wearing sunglasses, they could feel the seriousness and solemnity in each other's eyes at this moment.

"Please tell me."

Sitting up slightly, knowing that the main event was about to begin, Uozuka Saburo also restrained his relaxed posture.

"About two months later, we decided to conduct another covert operation. I originally wanted to hand over the mission entirely to you, but after careful consideration, I felt that you alone might not be enough."

"The main door isn't working either?"

His eyebrows furrowed, and hearing the meaning of "abandoning" Daimon Miyuki in Rum's words, Uozuka Saburo asked with some confusion.

This is an inevitable question, and he needs to see Rum's attitude from it.

"He can still carry out missions as your assistant, but I think it will be difficult for you to handle it alone."

"Mr. Rum, if you say that, I'm really a little excited. If I'm working with Da Men and the plan I prepared more than two months in advance can't be successfully completed, you don't want me to blow up a military base, do you?"

"It's not a military base, but this mission does have something to do with the military."

"Mr. Rum, are you serious?"

583: This state is too disgusting

"Since you couldn't wait even a day and came to me directly, it means that the task that Rum gave you is quite difficult."

He took out a can of canned coffee from his refrigerator and placed it in front of Uozuka Saburo. Being woken up from his sleep, Kimura Taka stared at Uozuka Saburo who was sitting opposite him with his dead eyes.

Although I am not grumpy when waking up, it is not a pleasant thing to be woken up in a sweet dream.

But unfortunately, after seeing the heavy expression on Uozuka Saburo's face, Kimura Taka knew that what happened here must be more important than his sleep.

“It’s really tricky.”

Nodding slowly, Saburo Uozuka did not take the coffee that Kimura Taka brought him, but instead took out a cigarette and lit it with some distress.

"Kimura, Rum might be crazy."

"Uh-huh?"

The action of drinking coffee paused for a moment, Kimura Taka looked up in surprise, looked at Uozuka Saburo, who was serious and didn't seem to be joking at all, and swallowed back the coffee that was about to fall from the corner of his mouth.

"Is Rum crazy? What happened? How did you figure it out?"

"He's already planning to attack Japan's army. Isn't he crazy?"

".. Tell me what happened.

. . .

"You actually think so. Rum is really too brave."

Putting down the tenth cigarette on his fingertips, Kimura Taka, whose hair had been messed up by himself, looked at Uozuka Saburo opposite him with a strange look.

Even though he had heard Rum's thoughts from Uozuka Saburo, Kimura Taka said he still couldn't understand.

"You said, even though we are a killer organization, and one that is not small in scale in the world, we still cannot be seen in public!"

"No matter in terms of manpower or equipment, how can we possibly compete with those regular organizations?"

"I originally thought that it was outrageous enough that Rum was so ruthless as to place his organization's undercover agents in the official circles of Tokyo and Neon, but he actually wanted to plan such a big move? He is the heir of a military family, and he is so calculating?"

"Yes, that's the plan. But it's obvious that Rum is not sure about this operation, so he told me so early so that I can prepare in advance."

Rubbing his brows, even Uozuka Saburo, who thought he knew enough, felt that he had underestimated this crazy man after listening to Rum's thoughts this time.

"And I definitely have no way of getting out of this mission. I think Rum is not going to ask for help from the organization in Magnesium. If that's the case, I will definitely be involved in this mission."

"Before that, try to get yourself hurt? See if you can get away with it?"

"It's useless. This time, the target will not leave Neon. Rum can just delay until I recover from my injury before carrying out the mission."

He shook his head with a wry smile. Uozuka Saburo had a very accurate understanding of his own positioning. Not to mention that Rum had told him about the matter more than two months in advance, even if he was transferred within the organization, Uozuka Saburo could not escape this mission.

"Then there is no other way. For such a confidential mission, Rum would probably only tell you in the entire organization."

Nodding slightly, Kimura Ying, who had fully realized the seriousness of the matter, no longer had any desire to sleep.

"Are you still in charge of manning the mission this time? Can we make some adjustments here?"

"No, although Rum told me to prepare on my own, I have a feeling that Rum will definitely intervene in the allocation of manpower this time."

After putting out the cigarette in the ashtray, Saburo Uozuka decisively denied Kimura Taka's guess.

"I can count the names that can be chosen on one hand. It depends on how many Rum wants to give me."

. . .

"Is this the candidate who gives you the most headaches?"

In a training venue organized by the organization, sitting in the coordination room, Kimura Takashi watched the black-haired woman who kept hitting the sandbag and looked extremely fierce on the monitor. He pursed his lips, then looked at Uozuka Saburo on the side with schadenfreude.

"Headache? Not really. If it's her, I think Rum made the right choice."

With his eyes slightly narrowed, he carefully observed the screen on the monitor. The more he looked, the more Sanro Uozuka felt a strange touch in his heart.

Of course, first of all, we have to rule out the absurd idea of ​​being attracted by beauty! Uozuka Saburo said that he is definitely not the kind of person who can't walk when he sees a beautiful woman.

He really felt that he must have seen the Rye Whiskey in the surveillance camera, the woman named Moroboshi Aya, somewhere before she joined the organization.

"But I haven't been on a mission in Southeast Asia either."

He scratched his hair in distress and observed for a while but still couldn't remember any detailed information. Uozuka Saburo let out a long sigh and gave up the meaningless thinking that he had done many times.

"Then I'll go over and take a look. By the way, remember our bet."

"Don't worry, I'll be watching from the monitor as well. I'm very confident in my judgment!"

Smiling, Kimura Taka gave Uozuka Saburo a thumbs up, watched him walk out of the mixing room, and then turned his gaze back to the woman who was still sweating profusely on the monitor.

"I just don't believe that any woman would ask for a fight after meeting each other. The organization is not full of weird people like you and Gin."

"I'm sure to win this bet!"

. . .

"boom!"

Another fierce side kick kicked the nearly 100-pound sandbag to a horizontal height. Akai Hidei, who was standing in front of the sandbag, slightly sideways to avoid the sandbag that fell due to gravity, and then stretched out her hand to fix it in place when it calmed down.

"That's a fierce attack. It seems that you, Rye, are really suitable for working in the organization."

The sound of applause and laughter rang out in the training room, but it did not surprise Akai Hidei.

In fact, when Uozuka Saburo just appeared at the door of the training room, Akai Hidei had already noticed his arrival.

"Thanks for the compliment, Vodka."

Turning her head to look at Uozuka Saburo who was standing behind her in a black suit, and seeing that Uozuka Saburo had never taken off his sunglasses, a strange look flashed in the depths of Akai Hidei's calm eyes.

"Mr. Rum has issued an order, saying that I will be carrying out tasks under your command for the rest of my life. Please give me your guidance in the future."

"Okay, okay. Having a skilled colleague like you like Hei Mai working with me will help me worry less."

He nodded with a smile. The relationship between Uozuka Saburo and Akai Hidei can be said to be very strange.

Although it was for the sake of Miyano Akemi, Akai Hidei was recommended by Uozuka Saburo to join the organization. With such an identity, even if she doesn't have a master-disciple relationship like Uozuka Saburo and Yamae Vodka, her relationship should be closer than that with other people in the organization.
