Phantom Thief of Heart!but conan

Chapter 927: Kicking the Red Team to Speed ​​Up

"So, what are you going to do next? Although we can contact the CIA on your behalf, but, you know, Ms. Hondou..."

After catching up with his former colleagues, Shuichi Akai turned his focus back to his current work.

As he spoke, he kept an eye on the silent Tang Ze, as if waiting for the other party's reaction.

With his departure, the FBI now has no spies in the organization, at least from the perspective of this group of people.

It is not an easy thing to stay in an organization for a long time. It is even more difficult to be like Shuichi Akai before he left, who not only stayed but also got promoted all the way, obtained a code name, and almost came into contact with the organization's core senior management and task content, and continuously conveyed the organization's plans back.

In Akai Shuichi's opinion, even if the FBI has other backup plans, he is not the only one in the organization. It would be difficult to train another undercover agent who could climb to the position of Moroboshi Dai, and it might take even longer...

This was also one of the reasons why he agreed to Tang Ze's plan so quickly.

His struggle with the organization will not end because of temporary success or failure. In order to find out the truth about his father's disappearance and to free his loved ones from the shadow of this behemoth, he and the organization are in an irreconcilable relationship.

Since Tang Ze is just like he was in the beginning, determined to join the game, he has no reason to object except that he is worried that the other party has not received systematic training and may be in danger of death.

This is even more true for the FBI. An opportunity to quickly gain access to an organization's power structure is worth investing in, even if it is a risky move.

Facts have proved that Karasawa did a very good job, but due to various complicated reasons, Karasawa, a wild undercover agent with no background, can currently be regarded as being shared by multiple parties, not only the FBI, but also the Japanese Public Security Bureau, because of Toru Amuro, the cooperation with him is even deeper.

...Oh, and there is also the Phantom Thieves Group founded by Karasawa himself.

Of course, Shuichi Akai also knew that as long as he opened his mouth, Tang Ze would definitely help him with all his might, whether it was intelligence or the required targets, but precisely because of this, he would be extremely restrained, and would never add difficulty to Tang Ze unless his mission did intersect with the other party.

In short, Tang Ze is good, but the FBI still needs its own spies, and the young woman sitting in front of him is a good choice.

"I understand." Mizunashi Reina lowered her head. "Let's not talk about our relationship. After I officially joined the organization, the CIA has deleted and destroyed all my personal information. I'm sure the same is true for you."

The FBI and the CIA don't get along. Even if the FBI takes the initiative to contact the CIA for cooperation, the CIA will not believe it. This is one aspect, but whether cooperation can be achieved is another.

Due to the confidentiality of the organization and its stringent requirements for confidentiality, all undercover agents who join the organization will basically have their identity information completely redone and will not leave any traces in the original database.

This is the difficulty of being a disconnected undercover agent. Their few contacts and logistics are destined to be their only connection with their original lives. Only a few people can persevere to the end like Furutani Rei, become managers, regain the initiative, and then receive more investment and support, and have a complete logistics team.

From this perspective, unless Gin is also an undercover agent, Bourbon is now the most successful undercover agent in the entire organization.

"After I left the organization, the FBI also lost a large part of its channels and perspectives. I think there is a basis for cooperation between us. What do you think, Ms. Hondou Eikai?"

Mizuno Rena took a deep breath.

She knew that this was the most important part of this meeting and the reason why Tang Ze chose to bring her here in the first place.

She needs organized support, someone to process the collected intelligence for her and turn it into action in a timely manner to disrupt the organization's plans. The FBI needs a new spy to restore the intelligence gap caused by Shuichi Akai's exposure and withdrawal.

Common interests and goals are the basis of cooperation. After figuring out his identity, I'm afraid this is what Tang Ze had planned long ago.

Now is the most important part of the whole conversation. No matter how high the price is, you still have to pay it back in the end.

Tang Ze raised his head and stood up: "There are other things at the office, I'll leave first."

He made a phone gesture to Mizunashi Rena, indicating that she should contact him later, and then made a few obscure gestures to Akai Shuichi, indicating that he could make a fuss about Hondou Eisuke. He consciously completed the task of a broker, turned around and prepared to leave leisurely.

"Kangze." Akai Shuichi stood up and called him.

Tang Ze turned around and met Akai Shuichi's green eyes.

Shuichi Akai was wearing a suit of Iwai Munehisa's, but his green eyes were the only thing that still belonged to him.

"Thank you for your hard work all along." Akai Shuichi didn't say anything else, but spoke in a serious tone.

How difficult is the work of an undercover agent? How much effort is needed to develop to such an ease? And Tang Ze, who lacks an identity background to support him, still needs to deal with various forces and save up wealth for himself bit by bit...

No one knows better than Shuichi Akai, who has been an intelligence agent for six years, how much this brother who always has a smile on his face has paid.

"...You're welcome." Tang Ze smiled, without delving into the reason why he suddenly said that seriously. He just put two fingers together and pointed them at his temple, waving them casually, "Come on, you guys too, big brother."

Mizuno Reina, who was calculating the chips in her mind, was stunned for a moment, turned her head and repeated in a low voice: "Brother...?"

Shuichi Akai did not answer. He watched Tang Ze leave before sitting down again.

Without Tang Ze's observation, his sharp and cold temperament was not restrained at all this time. Mizunashi Rena was in a trance for a moment, and suddenly remembered the organization's evaluation of rye whiskey.

"The Second Gin"...

"The conversation that follows is between an FBI agent and a CIA agent. Tell me, Kiel, what do you have now?"

----

Tang Ze turned and left, listening to the familiar sound of shattering as he walked along the crowded streets of Shibuya, quietly listening to Leon's voice.

【rank up！rank 2】

[Learned Ability: Advanced Sniper Mastery] [I am steadfast, open-minded, unwavering, and never give up...

He has principles, beliefs, an unyielding will, is not bound by means, is not troubled by shallow moral issues, and always looks directly at what he really needs. He is almost the kind of person you once wanted to be.

This connection is even more valuable given his background and origins, and his current relationship with you.

After six years of trials and tribulations, he now stands in the same position as you, and looks at you with the same eyes as you once did. What kind of scenery do you see, traveler? 】

"I thought he wanted to give me some instructions." Tang Ze said to himself as if answering this question, "In the end, he actually said, thank you for your hard work..."

As Tang Ze spoke, he began to laugh, walked out of the bustling Shibuya Central Street, and turned into the intersection on the other side.

After a while, the familiar RV appeared in the field of vision. Its tall and long body made the open green park next to it seem a lot more cramped.

Since his initiative to confront Rena Mizunashi was somewhat risky and might cause a huge backlash from the undercover agent who had been nervous for several years, even though it was just a conversation, the Phantom Thieves followed him out as usual to be on the safe side.

Therefore, when Karasawa took Mizunashi Rena away from the TV station, they quickly returned to the RV, which resulted in the current scene where a group of people are huddled here as a war room, just like in a signal monitoring vehicle.

After climbing a few steps, Tang Ze saw his teammates who were discussing the FBI and CIA enthusiastically as expected.

"…The organization's influence in the United States is not as deep as in Japan - I guess it has something to do with the land area - but they also have a lot of say. I heard that they have set up an off-campus lobbying organization under the guise of a pharmaceutical company." Zhu Fushiki sat in front of the screen and explained to his peers, "To be able to stay in the organization for so many years without being exposed, whether it's Akai Shuichi or Mizunashi Rena, their information should have been destroyed very cleanly."

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"So, after the death of her father and related contacts, she has completely lost the channel with the CIA." Matsuda Jinpei nodded slowly, "She now needs external help to restore this connection."

"If that's not possible, at least they should be able to provide equal resources and assistance." Hagiwara Kenji stroked his chin, "It sounds like their cooperation is indeed the best option."

"At this stage, this is the case." Zhu Fu Jingguang glanced at Tang Ze who was walking over and nodded.

He didn't say much, but Tang Ze understood what he meant from his eyes and pointed to his phone with a smile: "I'm not partial to one over the other. Regarding Mizunashi Rena's situation, I have been in contact with Mr. Amuro throughout the whole process. He knows everything."

"That's not what I meant..." Zhu Fujingguang shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "It's really difficult for the Japanese public security to provide what she needs. I just suddenly felt that..."

"Do you think I'm a little cunning for having three girlfriends at the same time?" Tang Ze raised his eyebrows and asked bluntly.

"I think you are really smart." Zhu Fujingguang sighed, "It only took you two hours to make such a decision. Tang Ze, you really have the capital to fight against the organization."

This was the main point of his conversation with his peers.

Why did Karasawa choose to bring Mizunashi Rena to visit Akai Shuichi in the first place, why this cooperation was achieved so quickly, and the unfinished words between the three people...

Having been an undercover agent for three years, Zhu Fujingguang, who thought he was not dull in this regard, asked himself honestly and once again admired Tang Ze's quick decision-making and execution capabilities.

"This decision cannot be said to be made by me. There are so many prerequisites as a prelude, and I am just an initiator. Without me, as long as the identity of Mizunashi Rena is investigated clearly, this decision will be made sooner or later." Tang Ze said the truth.

He has an intelligence base that is ahead of everyone else, the amount of information he knows from the plot, and an identity background that allows him to move between various parties. He has too many advantages. If he can't kick the butts of all the red parties and fast forward, then he can forget about playing the undercover role.

"I know it, but when it comes to actual execution, no one is as fast as you..." Zhu Fu Jingguang said with emotion.

"You're really 18 years old, and you've been unable to communicate with the outside world for 10 years. You've only lived for 8 years..." Matsuda Jinpei, who was leaning on the table and watching their conversation, complained, "You've caused so much trouble for a criminal group that's been causing trouble everywhere. If I were a high-ranking official, I'd want to commit suicide right now."

"Just think of it as a compliment." Tang Ze spread his hands, "The leader of the omnipotent Phantom Thieves must also be omnipotent, right?"

"You kid..." Miyano Akemi patted the back of his head and smiled helplessly.

The conversation in the weapons shop was still being faithfully broadcast by Noah. After the jokes, several people's attention was drawn back to their conversation.

Miyano Akemi took the opportunity to pat Tang Ze's shoulder twice, then leaned over to whisper in his ear, "Xingchuan heard their conversation and seemed a little uncomfortable. The organization's experiments and his previous life probably left him with a lot of psychological trauma. You can go ask him when you get a chance."

It is true that she had comforted Xingchuan Teru, but she couldn't help but worry whenever she thought of the gloomy mood that had resurfaced in him before.

Hoshikawa Teru's past life was definitely abnormal, but after joining the Phantom Thieves, such a life may not be normal.

She felt that although Xingchuan's trauma had recovered to a certain extent due to collective life, most of the problems were actually just covered up, and they were bound to erupt someday.

Tang Ze provided him with material conditions so that he did not have to worry about food and clothing, and also established many interpersonal relationships for him through fighting and cooperation, but some problems would take longer and more effort to solve.

If possible, Miyano Akemi hopes that this child who has finally escaped from the shadow of the organization and found a place to stay can move into a brighter future and not be bound by the pain of the past.

"I understand." Tang Ze used his peripheral vision to watch Xingchuan Hui who was sitting in front of the computer browsing web pages and information, and nodded slightly.

This is also the reason why he took the initiative to find the RV.

He was not surprised that Hoshikawa Teru's coop would be suddenly upgraded. Ever since he felt the strong desire for identity recognition in Hoshikawa Teru, he has been guiding him in this direction.

Whether it is playing the role of Goro Akechi or becoming the Phantom Thief of Hearts, if Hoshikawa Teru was not eager to get out of the past and was eager to help Karasawa, Karasawa would not have thrown these tasks to him.

Hoshikawa Teru wants to be recognized and needed. Having never experienced a normal life, he wants an anchor point and motivation. For now, this anchor point is Karasawa and the Phantom Thieves.

What really surprised Tang Ze was Leon's vague but somewhat disturbing comment...

"I'll talk to him."
