【Comprehensive Anime】Gender-swapped Tomie is a popular figure
Chapter 292 God, please save me (private plot line)
He had been using the poison distributed by the organization to kill people, but he met the only survivor - Kudo Shinichi.
So is he someone else in disguise or a ghost returning? We have to see him with our own eyes again to be sure, right?
It is also possible that there is a problem with the APTX4869 poison.
Gin sat casually on the sofa and thought. This was something he had been struggling with for the past few days, and he could only hide in the safe house and ponder over it.
Smoking one cigarette after another, in the smoke, Gin's cold face was blurred for a moment, but when the smoke dissipated, he still sat there steadily, thinking about his next plan.
In the end, he chose to contact his boss.
He hasn't contacted his boss for a long time. When he gets an order, either Rum sends him a text message or Vermouth comes to tell him.
In the past, communication between Gin and his boss was usually done through email, and text messages were rarely sent.
The boss is an overly cautious person. His voice is all electronically synthesized and he never shows his true face. He has never seen the boss's true face until now.
But, rum and absinthe have definitely been seen.
They are more favored by the boss than Gin, especially the strange woman Absinthe, who always keeps to herself in the organization and does not obey any orders.
The boss knew clearly what she had done but never punished her, and Rum deliberately indulged her, as if she was the most honorable person in the organization.
If they hadn't said every time that they were following the boss's orders, Gin would have suspected that the boss had been replaced long ago.
But that has nothing to do with Gin. He is only loyal to the organization. After all, it was the organization that rescued him and gave him a life.
So what if Rum looked down on them? Even though he already knew that the two were working together to "isolate" him, the boss treated them differently...
There is also absinthe's unprovoked provocations and smug smile when teasing, which always reveal an incomprehensible and unpredictable feeling.
The more I think about it, the weirder it seems. There are too many doubts.
Gin continued thinking while holding the mobile phone and dialing the number. Suddenly, his mind uncontrollably recalled the joking words that Kawakami Tomie had said to him, and then he took a deep breath.
He didn't want to believe it.
But he still remembered the scene when he was rescued and thrown into the killer training base. At that time, he saw Absinthe who looked exactly the same as now.
She hasn't changed at all over the years, while Gin is already twenty-nine and almost thirty.
The organization seemed to be hiding some unknown secrets, and from the time the organization rescued him from the slums and trained him to be a killer, to his current reuse in the periphery, it all showed that the organization was handling him in a fair and impartial manner and was determined to squeeze out all his value.
As soon as he reveals his true colors or shows any signs of being useless, he will be expelled from the organization and strangled to death.
Absinthe, that strange woman, gets all the favors without any effort, and everything is covered with mystery.
It's not fair, he's so annoying.
No one could doubt his loyalty to the organization, at least before that.
But now it’s no longer possible, Gin is a suspicious person by nature.
Not to mention seeing Kudo Shinichi again, who was supposed to be dead, and the meaningful gaze of Kawakami Tomie.
Those devilish words echoed in my ears.
All signs indicate that the boss does not actually trust him, otherwise he would not have let him capture Kudo Shinichi alive.
It’s a test from the organization.
So we have to believe a little bit of what Tomie Kawakami said.
After wavering between the two thoughts, he finally subconsciously decided to call his boss.
Making a phone call to report the situation was a test, and also a hint of distrust.
He is testing both the organization and Tomie Kawakami.
As for the organization, Gin can be said to have grown up in it. In addition to issuing orders, he is also very familiar with certain characteristics of the organization. He can combine the orders with some of his familiarity to speculate the authenticity of events; but as for Kawakami Tomie, he has no evidence at all.
Even if he occupied his mind too much, even if he felt impulsive and possessive towards him, even if he was attracted to him, he would not let his emotions get the better of him.
But on the other hand, it also proves that the organization is actually afraid of him.
Otherwise, with his own strength, how could he allow Absinthe to show off his power over him.
I've wanted to break her...
Gin's cruel dark green pupils narrowed slightly. After licking his lips that were dry from smoking, he finally clicked on the confirmation option.
"Beep-beep-beep-"
After beeping for a long time, the call was finally connected. Gin lowered his eyes to the phone in his hand and spoke first.
"Boss, I'm Gin, and the mission to capture Kudo Shinichi alive has failed."
After a while, a mechanical electronic sound came from the phone, which was so slow and harsh.
"So that's why you made this call, Gin? What a failure."
"..."
The person on the other end of the phone continued: "If I remember correctly, this famous high school detective has become a threat to the organization because of his fame. Didn't you deal with him a long time ago? Are you sure it was him you saw?"
Gin immediately recalled the scene of capturing Kudo Shinichi alive.
At that time, Kudo Shinichi was still fighting hard, and he didn't have time to check whether there were any traces of disguise on his face before he let him run away, so he really couldn't be sure whether he was the real Kudo Shinichi.
And in fact...
Gin pulled the corner of his lips, suddenly feeling a little impatient. He suppressed his temper and reluctantly continued talking to the boss, then gave an answer that was contrary to what he felt in his heart.
"Not sure. Boss, you should know that I will be ruthless. I know how to root out the problem completely."
"Oh, is that so?" the mechanical voice said indifferently, "Then I'll give you a chance to atone for your crime. Go and bring Kawakami Tomie and Shirley back to the headquarters without any harm. I believe you can accomplish this mission, right?"
Gin's pupils widened instantly, and for a moment he thought he had heard it wrong, and almost dropped the mobile phone in his hand.
But he quickly calmed himself down so that the other party would not hear that there was anything wrong with him, and continued to reply in a steady voice.
"Yes."
The call was then hung up.
Gin looked at the hung up phone and was about to smash it to the ground in annoyance, but before he could do anything, a text message sounded.
Gin frowned, but clicked it anyway.
On the other side, in a white room full of metal style that looked like a laboratory, an old man with a hunched back sitting on a blanket was staring solemnly at the communication device in front of him.
His hair was so gray that only a few strands were left, and he was almost bald. The wrinkles on his face were drooping in circles, and even opening his eyes was difficult for him. He looked as old and withered as the bark of a dying tree.
He is really too old and will soon die.
But when his cloudy eyes fell on the photo in front of him, they instantly burst into an unprecedented light.
As if re-energized, his skinny hands, shaped like dead branches, began to tremble violently and uncontrollably. Then, with all his strength, he slowly reached out to the photo. His movements were slow but firm.
Finally, he successfully picked up the photo thrown in front of him and held it tightly in his hands, as if it was the most precious treasure in the world.
His lips were moving slightly and he was mumbling incoherently.
"Tomie...he's back, he's finally back...I've been waiting for him for so long, he's finally saved!"
The voice was low and hoarse, carrying an almost insane joy and anticipation.
At this moment, a gentle and intellectual voice of a royal sister suddenly sounded beside, breaking the silence around.
"Grandfather, is this why you are still alive?"
Then, a slender hand with brightly polished nails quickly reached over and effortlessly snatched the photo from the old man.
The old man knew very well that he could not compete with the strong woman next to him. All his actions were now restricted by his old body and he could not move at all.
So his shrunken head could only helplessly follow the movement of the photo, his eyeballs bulging out. When he finally saw who had snatched his photo, he squeezed out a hoarse cry from his throat.
"Vermouth... eh... give the photo back to me... eh——"
"Oh, you haven't answered my question yet."
Vermouth pursed her red lips and sneered, her eyes full of charm. When her gaze fell on the photo in her hand, her expression became inexplicable again.
Because she knew who the person in the photo was, it was Tomie Kawakami, who she called "Angel" after only meeting her once and who is now all over the news.
——An inexplicable sense of closeness and the secret of her eternal youth.
The organization's research on elixirs is information that can be investigated by the U.S. FBL and the Japanese Public Security Bureau, but these are all confidential and not known to the general public.
Vermouth knew this because the leader of the organization, Karasuma Renya, was her biological grandfather, and she herself was also an experimental subject of this research, otherwise how could she still look like she was in her 20s.
The same is true of her grandfather Karasuma Renya, but because of differences in people's physiques, Karasuma Renya did not remain forever young like Vermouth. Instead, his appearance still aged a little bit with time, even though his aging process was slow enough compared to normal people.
However, people are greedy, and bad people who hold power will only desire immortality more.
Hence, we have what we have now.
So now that things have come to this, is Kawakami Tomie's return to repeat the past or to break time?
Vermouth stared at the photo for a long time, until the grandfather in front of her uttered an unconscious low roar, then she slowly cast her gaze on Karasuma Renya under the blanket and continued speaking.
"I know exactly how you obtained his blood. Are you going to keep it secret, Grandfather? I even have the power to ask Gin to interrupt the order just now. Didn't you just see the whole process of me issuing the order? I have that ability, don't I?"
Facing Vermouth's threat, Karasuma Renya slowly turned his eyes and looked at her. His gray-white eyeballs no longer had any normal human crystals, but rather looked like the beastly gaze of a monster.
Vermouth looked into those eyes without any fear. Just when she was about to say something else to threaten him, Karasuma Renya finally spoke again.
He was panting, the breath in his throat becoming heavier, as if he was going to die in the next second, and his eyes revealed unclear emotions.
He was like a lamp running out of steam, and he spoke intermittently: "I envy you so much... You are the one he favors... And I can only greet him like this..."
Karasuma Renya began to speak with a look of deep taboo:
"His blood...actually...was of no use at first...but his cells...are so active...if the opening is not sealed, I'd think something would come out of it..."
Thus, the two people who extended their lifespan were born.
Unfortunately, the medicine was no longer available, and Karasuma Renya was wondering how to continue living every day...
He was so afraid of getting old. No torture could be compared to watching himself grow old little by little while his granddaughter remained young and unchanged.
There is no harm without comparison.
He has gone mad.
Now, he finally found the god that obsessed him, and he knew that God wanted him to continue living...
If the blood of the Muse was hidden out of morbid love at the beginning, now it is purely for immortality... and to plunder divine power.
God, please save me...
Or let me see you again.
Karasuma Renya prayed pitifully in his heart.
