Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

Second day

Toru Amuro, who received the highest-profile order from his husband last night, had just finished breakfast and was washing dishes in the kitchen. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door outside the safe house.

After wiping his hands, Toru Amuro took off his apron and walked towards the door. Then he saw Yozumi put down the rag he was using to clean the table and opened the door one step ahead of him.

Then, an unexpected person appeared in front of him.

Zhu Fu Jingguang's original doubt suddenly turned into shock when he saw the person outside the door. He opened the door and shouted in a low voice:

"Master Whiskey."

Karasuma Sonobu put down his hand on the door, then followed the path that Zhu Fu Jingguang left, walked into the house, and at the same time said hello to the two of them naturally:

"Long time no see, Scotland, Bourbon."

After entering the room, Toru Amuro poured a glass of water for Karasuma Sonobu naturally, and then asked tentatively:

"I didn't expect you to come. The things in the safe house are rudimentary. Please drink a glass of water first. I don't know if you are here with me last night..."

Regarding Amuro's tentative behavior that ended abruptly in the middle of speaking, Karasuma Sonobu nodded, and then told the whole story of the highest-profile order:

"Sir, a treasure has been robbed by the organization that uses animal names as code names. The task of gathering everyone tonight is to find the members of the zoo organization who are following Kaitou Kidd, and then capture them alive.

The organization has been busy lately, so my husband has left this matter to me. However, I don’t have any manpower in Neon, so I specifically asked my husband to lend you, Scotland and some other people to help.

This is why you and Scotland will receive this secret transfer order. "

After hearing the whole story, Toru Amuro was confused. Since it was tonight's mission, why did Whiskey come to tell him about it early in the morning? Couldn't he just send them an email or phone call to tell them tonight's action plan?

Then he also asked this question.

Karasuma Soshin replied:

“Because I will not be directly involved in this operation, the person with the highest command authority in this operation tonight is you, Bourbon.

In Neon Territory, I will not appear in the organization as Whiskey unless necessary, so I will take this opportunity to tell you in advance. "

As he said that, Karasuma Sonobu seemed to have thought of something again, and reminded him a few more words:

"By the way, I will also be attending the Chunying dinner tonight. If anything happens, I will contact the two of you through a single line.

The rest of the specific action arrangements are up to you, Bourbon. Unless it is an accident, I will not intervene.

Of course, the most important thing is not to mention me to the rest of the organization. "

After saying that, Karasuma Sonobu stood up and planned to leave.

He came here just to get a vaccination with Bourbon and the others in advance, and by the way, he used this as an excuse to see the capabilities of the new ace of the intelligence team.

After delivering the whiskey and going out, Zhu Fu Jingguang closed the door and told You Tongran about his new discovery:

"Zero, Whiskey, he drives a very, very eye-catching luxury sports car."

Zhufu Jingguang, who was watching Karasuma Sonobu drive away, used two extraordinary words to describe the luxury sports car he saw.

"Eye-catching? Luxurious?"

Could it be that Whiskey's public identity this time is that of a rich man with a wealth of wealth? Otherwise, why would he be driving around in a striking and luxurious car?

While Toru Amuro guessed, he began to discuss with Morofushi Jingguang the purpose of Whiskey's special trip tonight.

"I once heard Vodka mention that Whiskey has never been to Neon since he joined the organization. There are rumors that it is because Rum has been stationed in Neon for a long time and Whiskey has an old grudge with him, so he has not stepped into Neon. step."

Zhufu Jingguang mentioned the old news about whiskey he heard from Gin.

Toru Amuro only had 50% confidence in the authenticity of this rumor.

The most important thing is that he doesn't think that the whiskey list is just to hate rum. Not only does he not take a step into neon, but even his equipment team does not set foot in this place.

And why would Sir leave this matter to Whiskey? Even if there was trouble at Rum recently, wouldn't there still be Gin and Champagne? In terms of closeness and distance, as well as the deployment of manpower, wouldn't those two more convenient.

In this regard, Zhufu Jingguang mentioned that Ginjiu had been following up on the recent incident revealed by Rum's men in the past few days, and the rest of the free manpower was basically sent out to investigate other members of the organization.

It's probably because of this that I can't take action for the time being.

After being reminded by Zhu Fu Jingguang, Toru Amuro suddenly realized:

"If that's the case, I guess Champagne was probably too busy investigating the subordinates, so in the end the matter fell on Whiskey's head.

After all, Rum's men have repeatedly violated the law. As Mr.'s informants, the direct team monitoring the entire organization in the dark did not find anything. At a small level, it was due to neglect of duty and not paying attention, at a large level, it was probably because they were early. He and the heads of the two branches secretly colluded with each other, so they turned a blind eye and concealed it. "

If it is ultimately found to be the latter, then not only rum but also champagne will be implicated, and this implication is likely to shake Mr.'s trust in champagne.

In fact, the facts were almost as Tohru Amuro had guessed. After Renye Karasuma went to see Rum in person, Champagne received orders from his adoptive father, the steward Karasuma.

He was ordered to thoroughly investigate within the next month whether any members of his direct team were involved in this matter.

Champagne is very aware of the seriousness of this matter. Once his members are involved, as the captain, he has an unshirkable responsibility.

The people at Rum's place are already dead anyway. The final outcome depends solely on Mr.'s decision. No matter what, it is just handing over the position of second-in-command. The position of leader of the intelligence team will still be his.

As for other powers, since Mr. can give them away, he can naturally take them back to Rum in the future when he regains his trust.

But what about his champagne.

He doesn't have the same status and background as Rum, who is the second generation of the organization. He does not accompany his husband to establish the foundation of the organization and make numerous achievements. In the end, his father died to protect his husband.

Not to mention the affection inherited from the blood parents.

Champagne was able to climb to his current status, firstly because he was the adopted son chosen by Butler Karasuma, and secondly because of his loyalty.

However, he knew very well that in the heart of Butler Karasuma, the status of Mr. Karasuma Renye was much more important than that of his adopted son.

Once his loyalty is doubted due to this matter, first of all, as his adoptive father, Butler Karasuma will not intercede for him in front of his husband.

Secondly, after his position in the heart of his husband begins to waver, if he wants to regain his trust, it will require a greater price and more energy than Rum.

There are too many people in the organization who want to remove him from the position of captain of the direct team and replace him. Not to mention the distance, the deputy captain of the direct team, Oisette, often tries to get ahead of him based on his seniority.

Therefore, in order to find out the truth, put aside his suspicions and prove his loyalty to his husband.

Champagne is currently racing against time to investigate and organize members of the direct team scattered in various branches around the world, and has no time to deal with other matters.

However, Toru Amuro is still not sure why Whiskey gave him the highest command of tonight's operation. After all, even if he doesn't like to appear in front of other organization members, he can still command remotely from behind the scenes, just like Gin. .

Besides, Whiskey himself will be attending the Spring Sakura Dinner tonight, wouldn't it be more convenient?

He is obviously the leader of the organization's equipment team and one of the five core high-level executives. But when it comes to Neon, it doesn't matter if he becomes invisible. Even his identity must be invisible in the organization. Why is this?

Amuro Toru and Zhufu Jingguang studied for a long time, but still couldn't come up with a reasonable guess.

This doubt was answered when the two met Whiskey at the Spring Cherry Dinner tonight.

After bidding farewell to Bourbon and Scotland, Karasuma Sonobu returned to the Karasuma residence where he had stayed for one night.

As soon as he entered the door, the head maid came to report that Butler Karasuma had sent something for him to see.

Later, as soon as Karasuma Sonobu sat down, a servant walked up to him holding a stack of information and a delicate mahogany box.

Karasuma Sonobu directly ignored the familiar box, took the information in his hand and turned it over. After discovering that these were the guest information for tonight's Haru Sakura Dinner, he became a little interested and read it carefully.

The head maid quietly served a pot of hot tea, and then signaled the servant to put the mahogany box in the cloakroom and accessories room on the third floor.

Half an hour later, Karasuma Sonobu closed the document and threw it on the table, and asked the head maid next to him:

"When will father arrive?"

The head maid replied softly with a loving smile:

"Butler Karasuma said the flight is at 3:46 in the afternoon. The head of the family will come over first, and then set off to the Chunying Club with the young master."

"Oh."

Karasuma Aoi responded with a calm tone, and then asked:

"I heard that Kidd sent a warning letter to the Suzuki family, saying that he was going to steal the Brilliant Star, the grand finale of tonight's Haru Sakura Dinner. There should be a lot of people gathered outside the Haru Sakura Club now."

The head maid nodded. This is normal. There are many people in Neon who pursue Kaitou Kidd, so once Kidd releases the notice letter, the notice location will be crowded by a large number of fans of Magician under the Moon.

"Well, there will be a lot of media present. My father and I don't like our photos to appear in various media reports and become a talking point for the public.

After contacting the Suzuki family, the Karasuma family requested that the entrance to Haru Sakura Club must be cleared before the dinner began, and no media was allowed to appear except for the guests present. "

In response to Karasuma Sonobu's willful request, the head maid did not hesitate at all and bowed her head in response:

"Yes, I will contact the Suzuki family later. Does the young master have any other instructions?"

"I heard that wherever Kaitou Kidd appears, there will also be the appearance of the Mori Ginsan Police Department of the Metropolitan Police Investigation Section 2. Those who will be present tomorrow night are the big shots who are currently at the top of the neon economy and power. This number of people may not be enough. .”

"I understand."

The head maid understood the meaning of Karasuma Sonobu's words. Regarding this, the head maid said that she would contact the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department in the name of the Karasuma family later and ask them to send additional manpower to maintain and protect the safety of the guests present.

After throwing out the probing bait, Karasuma Sonobu made no other demands. After lunch, he stayed alone in the quiet room all afternoon.

Unlike the previous time when he was bohemian, this time Karasuma Sonobu knelt down and sat on the light gray cloth embroidered with cloud patterns. He looked at the word "meditation" hanging on the wall in front of him, and all disguises were gone. There was only endless indifference in the emotional red eyes.

Looking into his own heart, Karasuma Sonobu quietly felt the passage of time. Suddenly, for a moment, he began to think, if his last concern was gone, then what was the meaning of all the things he was calculating now? .

Just boring humans, just a boring world.

An inhuman sense of separation became more and more obvious from Karasuma Sonobu.

However, thinking about his mother whom he had not seen for nearly 11 years, the extremely cold aura of Karasuma Sonobu returned to his previous indifference and world-weariness in an instant.

The head maid moved very quickly. Shortly after Karasuma Sonobu entered the quiet room, she made a phone call to Suzuki's house.

The Suzuki family received a message from the Karasuma family, and Shiro Suzuki finally made the decision to agree.

Suzuki Jirokichi was a little reluctant, but in the end he did not speak to refute his brother's proposal.

After all, the Karasuma family has stood at the top of Neon for thousands of years. It has never declined since the Heian era. Now, the Karasuma consortium alone controls most of Neon's economic lifeline.

Not to mention those political officials and congressmen who are secretly funded by the Karasuma Consortium.

Even though Neon is now a political party in power, the Karasuma family still has the power to cover the sky with one hand.

As for the Suzuki family, although they are also a top-notch family worthy of Neon's reputation, they still cannot compare with the Karasuma family in terms of foundation and strength.

The head maid's second call was to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. The specific person she called was not disclosed. However, that night, Officer Ginzo Nakamori welcomed a security guard that was more than three times more powerful than before.

Even the two bomb disposal aces from the Explosive Ordnance Disposal Squad of the Security Department were urgently transferred to the Chunying Club.

While Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji led their respective teams to conduct a strict explosives investigation on the entire five floors of the Haru Sakura Club, they also noticed the patrols on the three floors inside and outside.

"I feel like all the police from the Metropolitan Police Department are here. This posture is nothing more than the Prime Minister's arrival."

Matsuda Jinpei couldn't help but be a little speechless. Hagiwara Kenji looked around for a week and then spoke:

"About that. It is said that the top Neon conglomerates will be present tonight, including the Suzuki Consortium from Kanto, the Ooka Consortium from Kansai, and the Karasuma Consortium, which is rarely seen in the outside world and is known as Neon's No. 1 conglomerate.

Not to mention anything else, just the presence of these three major financial groups is much more valuable than our Prime Minister. "

After all, if a prime minister dies, a second one will take over immediately, which will not affect the lives of the neon people at all. But if something happens to these three major consortiums, the neon economy will collapse in an instant, and countless neon people will People will line up to jump off the rooftop.

Suddenly, noticing the police officer Kawamura, the head of the security department, who came to patrol, Matsuda Jinpei and Hagiwara Kenji quickly stopped talking and pretended to be working hard.

On the other side, the defensive security force instantly increased several times in just one afternoon. Kuroba Kaito, who was stationed nearby, couldn't help but secretly feel lucky.

Fortunately, he decided to come back before Haru Sakura Dinner. There were so many police this time. Didn't all the police in Tokyo have other things to do? Why did it feel like most of them were here.

However, the more difficult the challenge, the more Kuroba Kaito becomes more motivated to fight. No matter what, he will never give up.

If one of the two gems he planned to take at this meeting was Pandora, then he would really regret it until his intestines turned blue.

Even if it is as Koizumi Hongzi predicted, this time he will encounter a life-and-death crisis, Kuroba Kaito is willing to take the gamble.

As long as he can avenge his father and find and destroy Pandora before the zoo, he will not hesitate to do so, even if it costs his life.

A trace of paranoia flashed across Kuroba Kaito's eyes, and then quickly dissipated.

Koizumi Anko, who was far away in Ekoda, seemed to feel Kuroba Kaito's determination. She held up the crystal ball in front of her and wanted to perform another divination to find a solution, but found that the magic power in her body could not be mobilized at all.

Koizumi Hongzi had never encountered this situation before. She wanted to ask the housekeeper, but suddenly her vision went dark and she fainted.

Immediately afterwards, the crystal ball that Koizumi Hongzi fainted and brought down on the table quietly reflected a pair of bright red eyes.

After Koizumi Hongzi woke up, the crystal ball returned to its original appearance.

After waking up, Koizumi Anko asked the housekeeper, but the housekeeper had never encountered such a phenomenon in his memory, so Koizumi Anko went to the secret room of the study to read the manuscripts passed down by the previous Red Witches, and finally found only one sentence.

At the moment of evil, fate will cover the witch's eyes.
