Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

The electronic sound coming from the organization's boss, which had no discernible timbre, was calm yet eerie.

Even if the content of the speech is very kind, if you add the tone, it will probably be a negotiating tone.

But no one present thought that this matter could really be discussed again.

When that gentleman said this, it meant that the matter was decided.

No one had any objection to this. Even though the action group and the direct team had just been arguing over this smart and outstanding student, they all fell silent at this moment.

As for the joy of having a big son, well, cross it out. As for the joy of having a direct subordinate, Toru Amuro, his face was filled with fear and trepidation.

After more than twenty minutes,

Finally, a few outstanding students were recruited by the direct team.

From then on, this year's training camp graduation ceremony was officially declared over.

Brandy, who left first, just like when he came, was surrounded by Hennessy and others. He took the elevator to the top of the building and got on the helicopter on the top floor.

However, Vermouth, who also came by helicopter, did not leave immediately.

He followed the others out of the observation room on the second floor and gave instructions to the subordinates who followed him, asking them to leave first.

Vermouth stopped and fixed her eyes on Toru Amuro who was not far away.

After the other members who congratulated Amuro Toru gradually dispersed, even Morobushi Kagemitsu left with the rest of the action team.

Then he walked up to him, smiled and congratulated him:

"Congratulations, Bourbon. You've gained such an excellent subordinate in your first training camp graduation ceremony. The master personally selected him for you."

"That gentleman hasn't attended the training camp's graduation ceremony in almost ten years."

"Not only did he attend this time, he also personally selected an excellent subordinate for you. This is such a great honor that even I envy him."

"I believe that under the guidance of an intelligence expert like you, the child will soon be reborn and become an excellent member of the organization."

Vermouth's tone was gentle and her eyes were full of affection, as if she truly believed this.

Amuro Toru looked bitter when he heard this:

“I’m just an ordinary code member, how can I have any face?

As for the gentleman, it is only for the sake of my parents."

"You really know how to put me on the spot. I was scared by your previous greeting, and now you say you envy me.

If those people from Zacapa heard this, they would talk about me behind my back."

After hearing this, Vermouth's smile became even brighter:

"So...I'm going to wait until they leave before congratulating you."

“As for the greeting before, it was indeed my inconsiderateness. In fact, it was because we hadn’t seen each other for a while, so I was a little excited.

But I think you won’t hold it against me, Bourbon.”

Toru Amuro didn't believe it at all, but since Vermouth had said so, he wouldn't be so tactless as to ruin her reputation, so the two of them put the matter aside and talked about other topics.

Everyone is an expert in intelligence, so the atmosphere during the conversation was naturally very harmonious.

After tacitly avoiding certain topics that were not suitable to mention, the two chatted for nearly ten minutes while walking along a shady path.

The bright sunlight shines through the gaps between the trees, leaving large and small, sparse and irregular light spots on the ground.

When the wind blows, the shadows of the trees sway and these light spots change continuously.

Walking under the shade of the trees, the beautiful spots of light were like a colorful dress woven by fairies, draped over Vermouth and Amuro Toru.

This makes the two people, who already have outstanding looks and temperament, even more dazzling.

It immediately attracted the sparse graduates who were dispersing one after another not far away.

Looking at the two people walking together and slowly towards here, no one thought that they were just ordinary people who wandered here.

Today is the graduation ceremony.

Well, being able to dress like this and appear here so casually, without being bound by any rules, even the instructors who are usually strict turned a blind eye and had no reaction.

Who else could it be except the senior codename members who came to select students.

Many people's eyes lit up instantly.

They have already learned about their job assignments from their instructors, and except for a very few who are secretly dissatisfied, most people are very satisfied.

In other words, they would be satisfied just to be able to stand at the selection stage alive.

As for the rest, they are not worth mentioning compared to being alive.

They were raised by the organization since childhood, and the first thing they learned from the first day they came into contact with the organization was to obey orders.

Moreover, they all know that organizing long-term training and course learning consumes countless efforts and accumulates countless funds and manpower for special training and elite education.

Everything has a price.

As the best of this training camp, they will undoubtedly become the fresh blood of the organization.

In the future, we will enter the huge and powerful system of the organization and contribute our own strength to its operation and development.

But as one of the powerful forces in the other world, the organization also believes in the law of survival of the fittest and respects the strong.

Rules, regulations, and even orders from high-level officials can sometimes be compromised for the sake of the powerful.

Although members of the training camp receive strict education and management from the instructors on a daily basis, there is no restriction on them from fighting privately, and the instructors even encourage such behavior.

The winners with strong strength will not only be favored by the instructors, but also receive many priorities over ordinary students.

As the best of their peers, none of them has not enjoyed those priorities.

And power always breeds ambition.

Therefore, at this moment, they all knew very well that these two senior code members appeared here, no matter what their purpose was.

For them, it will be an opportunity.

This is a great opportunity to gain the favor of senior code members and rise to the top.

Although their destinations have been determined, this thing does not require faithfulness.

Moreover, once they enter the organization, their chances of meeting senior codename members will be extremely slim.

The organization has a large number of members, but senior codename members account for less than one percent.

If you are unlucky, you may not even be able to meet a senior code member in your lifetime.

When the instructors nearby saw this situation, they immediately understood what these little brats were planning.

In the past, they would have scolded him harshly.

But now, the kids who have graduated are no longer part of the training camp, and there is no need to apply the training camp rules to them.

Some things can only be appreciated after you have tried them yourself.

So, when the trainees who were supposed to disperse stopped, the instructors did not take any action and only focused on the affairs in the assessment area and the medical area.

Attracted by the sight and movement in the distance, Toru Amuro raised his head and saw a group of boys and girls in uniform training clothes standing not far away and looking over here.

He immediately realized that the people opposite were the members of the training camp who had been divided up by various departments not long ago.

He stopped and his eyes subconsciously fell on one of the girls, who had long brown curly hair, lake blue almond eyes, and beautiful features but also a tough look.

That was something he had never thought of, but was appointed by the boss of the organization himself, a direct subordinate who fell out of nowhere.

The stupid and cute Haodaer in the dream suddenly turned into a smart and cunning little fox with a Bourbon style.

Toru Amuro still can't accept it.

Vermouth followed Amuro Toru's gaze and saw the girl who had no scars on her body except for a bandage on her arm.

He joked out loud:

"Bourbon, so you brought me here specifically to meet your direct subordinates in advance."

"Looking closer, she is indeed a beautiful beauty."

"If you don't have time, I can help you take care of it for a while."

Toru Amuro did not agree.

Although his new subordinate was smart, she was just a sixteen-year-old girl who had just graduated.

How could he possibly beat a woman like Vermouth who has been around in the smart world for many years?

Besides, with a cold-hearted and dark nature like Vermouth, how can she raise a normal child?

Vermouth didn't care about Toru Amuro's rejection, she was just saying it casually.

Even if Toru Amuro really agreed, she would just use him as a fun thing to make up the numbers. How could she raise a child sincerely?

What's more, it was not a child, but a poisonous flower that had begun to bloom in the darkness.

Seeing the senior code member on the opposite side stopped and looked over, but did not show any intention of coming over for a long time.

The trainees on the other side were immediately disappointed.

But no one had the courage to approach the two men.

The organization has strict rules and the hierarchy is even more stringent.

Once they offend the other party, the senior code members will have to deal with these ordinary members who haven't even touched the code, and it will take them a long time.

Among the students,

The brown-haired girl who was being stared at by Toru Amuro and Vermouth looked at the two people in the distance who had already withdrawn their gazes, and was extremely sure that the person those two senior code members had just been looking at was her.

Recalling what the instructor had told her privately, the girl thought for a few seconds, and then silently shouted to Amuro Toru who was looking at her again:

Good day, Lord Bourbon.

Toru Amuro and Vermouth, who are proficient in lip reading, did not miss this scene.

Amuro Toru sighed in his heart again:

This child is really smart.

There was a hint of appreciation in Vermouth's eyes.

Toru Amuro, who didn't want to face reality so quickly, felt that he couldn't stand here any longer, so he nodded slightly to the girl among the students.

Invited Vermouth to dinner.

It is already past two in the afternoon and the helicopter will take at least three hours to return to Tokyo.

At this time, you can book a restaurant in advance, and then change your clothes after arriving in Tokyo and keep the appointment in just the right time.

Vermouth readily agreed.

So, with the few remaining hopes of the students, the two senior code members who were staying not far away looked at each other, chatted for a few words, and then turned around and left.

Soon, even the back of the figure could no longer be seen.

The students who had stayed here because of the appearance of Toru Amuro and Vermouth dispersed again.

In the temporary rest area, after perfunctorily dealing with a girl from the same class as her who asked about her whereabouts, she looked out the window at the sun gradually moving westward, quietly admiring it.

There seemed to be a ball of frozen black flame in the lake blue eyes.

Tokyo, around 7pm.

As Toru Amuro, who had changed his clothes, was welcomed into the box by the waiter, he saw Vermouth sitting at the inside of the dining table in a scarlet kimono with dark patterns embroidered on it.

After praising Vermouth's bright and eye-catching outfit as usual, Toru Amuro sat on the other side of the dining table.

Looking at the dishes on the table, Amuro Toru picked up the sake glass beside him and asked in confusion:

"Tokyo's autumn leaves season hasn't arrived yet. Isn't it too early to eat the autumn leaves season limited dishes now?"

Vermouth picked up the wine glass, clinked glasses with Amuro Toru, drank the sake in the glass, then put down the wine glass, looked at Amuro Toru, and said meaningfully:

"It's just that the autumn leaves season in Tokyo hasn't arrived yet."

Amuro Toru looked at Vermouth's expression for a long while before speaking:

"What major action will the organization take recently?"

"Have you heard of the Red Leaf Treasure?"

Toru Amuro thought about it and found some information from the corners of his memory.

"Are you referring to the Red Leaf Treasure that has been handed down from the Kamakura period to this day, containing wealth that rivals a country and treasures of the dead?

That should just be a rumor.”

Or maybe everyone has heard about it since childhood, the rumor that it has attracted countless treasure hunters and hosted countless treasure hunting competitions.

"At the end of July this year, a treasure map of the Red Leaf Treasure appeared at a top auction that was not open to the public and was bought by a mysterious buyer."

"The organization is planning to get the treasure map and then find the Red Leaf treasure?"

But what is the purpose? Is it the wealth that rivals a country? Or is it the legendary treasure of the dead?

Vermouth shook her head and gave a negative answer:

"No."

Toru Amuro was waiting for Vermouth's next words, and then he heard Vermouth change the subject.

"This year there is a treasure hunt for red leaf treasures, sponsored by the Ooka Foundation in Kansai."

In order to increase attention and exposure to the newly opened red leaf season tourism line under the Ooka Foundation, the Ooka Foundation held a treasure hunt competition using the red leaf treasure as a gimmick.

Participants in the treasure hunt will take the red leaf special train owned by the Ooka Foundation, passing through several places that have been highly suspected of being the location of red leaf treasures in history, as well as several places with beautiful maple leaf scenery.

Then embark on a treasure hunt.

During the period, professional media reporters will accompany and report the treasure hunt competition in full.

Then use this to build brand awareness and expand customer base for its red leaf season tourism line.

"What is the purpose of the organization?"

After listening to Vermouth talk about the Ooka family's tourism promotion strategy, Toru Amuro couldn't help but ask.

"Find the person who holds the real treasure map, and bring him and the treasure map back together."
