Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

Chapter 329 Prelude to the Snowstorm (2)

It was the morning of the third day after the lost and found notice was issued, which was also the last day of December.

Vermouth received the news from the Crystal Casino.

She said that she had found the whereabouts of the autographed photo, but the specific situation was a bit complicated and she needed to go to the Crystal Palace in person.

By the way, I have something important to discuss with Master Vasily in person.

Vermouth already knew about the latter's request for a meeting.

As the heir of the Friedman family, Alexei took the trouble to find an autographed photo that was actually fabricated by her, just to use this as an opportunity.

He reached a deal with Vasily, a man of mysterious origin, who showed impressive strength and was suspected to be supported by a powerful force.

But what does this so-called complicated situation mean?

It's impossible that several bottles of vodka would appear at once.

With this thought in mind, Vermouth sent a message to the special receptionist who contacted her, asking her to meet at 3pm.

Upstairs lounge,

Like last year, Karasuma Soshin attended the organization's annual year-end meeting remotely online.

What’s different from last year is that this year’s year-end meeting had only four attendees.

Not only Gin was absent, but also Vermouth.

Even though they were only separated by an upper and lower floor, Vermouth, who had once enjoyed such preferential treatment and favor, could only sit downstairs now, waiting for Karasuma Soshin to finish the meeting.

The process was exactly the same as before, and no one seemed at all surprised by Gin's absence.

Rum, who attended the event as the acting head of the intelligence team, was exceptionally quiet, while Champagne, who had just recovered from a serious injury and was still recuperating, was not much different from the past.

Brandy, who had finally finished all the year-end work in the past two days, exuded a sense of laziness after the busyness.

Perhaps knowing that many people complained about the location of last year's year-end dinner, this year's year-end meeting was set in a tropical area with a warm climate.

In order to reward myself, and also out of the frank mentality of not hiding it since everyone knows it.

This time, Brandy attended the meeting in his favorite floral shirt and beach pants.

Under the conference table, two beach slippers clearly look out of place in the entire conference room.

Omega did try to stop him, but ever since he had a friendly exchange with Vermouth, Brandy learned from it.

I spent money to buy the latest and most eye-catching floral shirts, as well as the matching beach pants and beach slippers in the city where the meeting was held in advance.

And asked the merchant to send it to the meeting place.

Therefore, Omega had no idea that his immediate boss, who was dressed appropriately when he went out, went straight to the locker room as soon as he arrived.

Then, wearing a floral shirt, beach pants, and beach shoes with colorful patterns on them, he walked into the solemnly decorated conference room.

Become the most eye-catching one among them.

Champagne, who was sitting next to Brandy, looked two shades paler than last year, with a hint of weakness in the corners of his eyebrows and eyes.

But just looking at the tense facial nerves, it is hard to tell whether Champagne is feeling unwell because he has just recovered from a serious injury, or he is disgusted by Brandy's ugly outfit.

What Champagne didn't know was that if Brandy hadn't been afraid that Hennessy would come and beat him up so that he couldn't take care of himself, he would have originally planned to dye his hair in various colors.

But in fact, even in this state now, Champagne is already having a hard time enduring it.

The speed of speaking during the report was several points faster than before.

There has never been a time when he wanted the year-end meeting to be over more than this one.

Of course, Rum thought so too.

As soon as he saw Karasuma Soshin's face, he couldn't help but think of the painful fact that he was now one level lower than Karasuma Soshin.

And the eyes filled with crazy murderous intent that you will never forget after seeing them once.

Rum used to be not afraid of a whiskey that was caught by the organization, whose weak points were controlled by the organization and bound by the ban.

He was confident that he could always keep an eye on Whiskey.

He is confident that in future fights, he will always be the one favored by Karasuma Renya.

In terms of background, trust, and power, how could a Whiskey recruited from outside be qualified to be compared with him.

Rum's hostility towards Karasuma Soshin was initially due to the word "equal".

He didn't care how Karasuma Soshin joined the organization, whether it was voluntary or involuntary.

He only knew that a boy who was only seventeen or eighteen years old and had never done anything was suddenly on the same level as him.

I recall the hard times I went through before I became a core cadre and the second-in-command of the organization.

Let’s take a look at Karasuma Soshin, who didn’t have to do anything and had everything prepared for him before he even joined the organization.

Naturally, it was difficult for Rum, who was inherently vicious and vengeful, to accept this huge psychological gap.

However, he had done so many things that he never thought that one day he would end up like this.

Want to ask him if he regrets it?

Of course he regretted it.

however,

What he regretted was not that he had done something too extreme and completely offended Karasuma Soshin, which led to the current situation where everything seemed to be at peace on the surface, but in fact the situation had already reached the point of a life-and-death feud.

But he failed to discover in advance that Karasuma Soshin was such a scheming and cunning person who was as cruel and ruthless as him.

By the time they realized it, Karasuma Soshin had already established a firm foothold in the organization, and the once precarious equipment group was now firmly in Karasuma Soshin's hands.

Based on this, he began the open and covert struggles with him that continue to this day.

Perhaps the joint wish of champagne and rum was really heard by the gods in heaven.

This year-end meeting did end earlier than previous ones.

When Karasuma Ren'ya announced the end of the meeting, Champagne and Rum both had a light of redemption in their eyes.

Karasuma Soshin glanced at Rum's expression, and as usual, he disconnected the signal link with the conference room the next second after hearing the end of the meeting.

Champagne, who usually walked calmly, stood up and left quickly, as if there was a ghost chasing him.

Rum was not slow either, and was the second one to leave after Champagne.

In the blink of an eye, Brandy was the only one left in the conference room, with his butt still sitting on the chair.

He blinked in confusion, then blinked again.

Brandy, who didn't understand what was going on, slowly got up from the chair, stepped on his favorite beach slippers, and continued to walk out slowly.

Champagne had no idea that after leaving the meeting room first, he took out his cell phone and called Hennessy to complain.

Hennessy, who had just got off the plane, listened to the conversation with a gloomy face, then turned around and called Omega who stayed in the hotel.

Then, with murderous intent, he got into the car sent by the logistics team here and drove straight to the hotel.

three o'clock in the afternoon,

Karasuma Soshin and Vermouth came to the Crystal Palace again.

Compared with the last time, this time the two men were followed by three black-clad bodyguards with typical Ross men's faces.

Artem, who was guarding the gate, immediately recognized the engaged couple with their recognizable looks.

I also know that the two of them are the distinguished guests who are being given special receptions.

He quickly went over to him before the other doormen noticed.

Vermouth had a good impression of Artem, who looked better than other doormen. When she saw him approaching, she gave him another stack of tips without waiting for him to speak.

Artem was so happy that he was grinning from ear to ear.

The other doormen who saw this cast jealous glances at him, wishing they were the ones being rewarded.

He deftly took the tip handed over by Vermouth.

Warmly welcome people into the door.

Inside the door, there was still a bustling scene of decadence and extravagance.

The special receptionist waiting at the door glanced at the three bodyguards following behind Karasuma Soshin, greeted them respectfully but cordially, and led them towards the elevator.

Two minutes later, Karasuma Soshin, led by the special receptionist, came to the VIP lounge he had visited a few days ago.

As soon as I entered the VIP lounge, Alexi, who was waiting there, stood up and greeted me.

"Long time no see, Vasily.

And Miss Yana, you are still as radiant as ever."

Karasuma Soshin nodded indifferently.

Vermouth, who was particularly praised by Alexi, accepted the offer without hesitation.

As soon as she sat down, she asked Alexei about the matter that concerned her most.

"Your men told me that my autographed photo was found. Where is it?"

Alexei's expression froze for two seconds. The special receptionist standing behind him noticed the boss's expression and quickly took over the conversation to explain:

"It's like this, Ms. Yana, we found three people who claimed to have found an autographed photo.

But the three men said they would not hand over the photos until they were paid.

We're not sure who is the one who picked up the actual autographed photo.

Miss Yana, please confirm it yourself."

Vermouth looked disgusted when she heard this:

"It's really useless, why do you want me to come here?

Where is the person? I want to see who dares to cheat me."

Alexei, who was scolded as useless, suppressed his displeasure and tried to remain calm while thinking about the next cooperation.

I didn't dare to delay the special reception.

In a few seconds, three men with similar clothes and heights and body shapes stood in front of Vermouth.

Vermouth glanced at the three people and felt a little confused.

What does vodka look like?

Looking at three faces with different looks without sunglasses.

Vermouth tried hard to recall and found that she really couldn't remember what Vodka looked like without sunglasses.

But this did not stop her from speaking:

"You found my autographed photo?"

The three of them nodded in unison, their movements in unison.

"But I only lost one, and you three all said you found it."

Vermouth, who originally had a smile on her face, suddenly looked cold, her eyes were full of arrogance, and her brows were full of contempt for human life.

“I hate it when people cheat me, especially when they cheat me with something I love.

I'm in a good mood now, if you just admit it, I'll spare your lives.

Otherwise, the bottom of the Golden Horn will be your burial place."

After hearing what Vermouth said, Alexei looked at Karasuma Soshin.

Seeing that Karasuma Soshin had no reaction to this and the cold expression on his face did not fluctuate at all, his guess about Karasuma Soshin's identity in his heart moved him a little closer to the inner world.

"Pasha."

Suddenly, Karasuma Soshin called out softly.

"exist."

The strong man from Goose who was called answered.

"These three don't seem to take Yana's threat seriously. Go help her."

"Yes."

Pasha, who had been carrying a small suitcase all the way, walked up to the three people from behind Karasuma Soshin, put the suitcase on the ground and opened it.

As a gust of cold air emerged, the contents of the box were not only seen by the three people, but also by Vermouth, Alexi and others.

Transparent ampoules filled with light pink liquid lie neatly in corresponding grooves.

In addition, there is another long grid with twenty small injection pens neatly stacked inside.

Pasha took out three ampoules with deft movements and removed three injection pens from the grid.

Then he closed the box.

Mini-theater 1: Main World Card-drawing Movie-Gin's Weakness (XII)

[On the fifth floor of the building, in the lighted core laboratory,

Gin was leaning against the wall with a gloomy expression, looking very embarrassed.

Blood flowed all the way from the leg wound to the ground.

His left arm was also shot, and blood dripped from his fingertips onto the floor.

Although the Beretta, which he always carried with him, was still in Gin's hands, it only served a decorative purpose.

It’s not that Gin is out of bullets.

But now Gin is the only one in this laboratory.

There were iron walls on all four sides, and the only door was locked remotely the moment he entered.

Through the monitor, the person behind the scenes saw Gin leaning against the wall in embarrassment, with a look of satisfaction on his face.

So what if he is the top killer of the Black Organization, has a supreme status, and is feared by countless people.

Isn't it still impossible for me to be trapped here by him and wait for death?

"Gin, give up struggling, you can't escape.

The mechanical door has been completely locked by me. It is impossible to open it without my fingerprint, iris, and correct password.

The mechanism inside the door is connected to the gas system in the room.

Even if you carry powerful explosives and can blow open the door, you will still die."

Gin breathed quietly and steadily, not paying any attention to the barking of the man behind the scenes.

The person behind the scenes was displeased when he saw that Gin was still so stubborn even at this point:

"I have shut down the laboratory's ventilation system. No matter how powerful you are, you will eventually suffocate to death due to lack of oxygen.

Gin, as long as you kneel down and beg me, beg me until I am satisfied, and be loyal to me from now on, I will give you a chance to live."

The person behind the scenes spoke sincerely, but Gin didn't even raise his eyelids and started bandaging his wound.

Seeing this, the person behind the scenes laughed instead of getting angry:

"Okay, okay, I want to see how long you can hold on."

Outside the laboratory,

After avoiding the guards and climbing four floors, Yueyawan followed the mechanical bee all the way to here through the window and looked at the mechanical door in front of him.

He looked up and down, left and right, then knocked lightly on the door with his ear.

Then he took off the backpack on his back.

In the pitch-black corridor, Yueyawan bit a small flashlight while taking out tools. 】
