The next day, Tokyo, the streets were crowded with people.

It was drizzling, and the office workers who had forgotten to bring an umbrella hugged their briefcases tightly in their arms and ran hurriedly with their glasses wet by the rain on their noses.

"Tequila has already got the box." Yin Jiu walked out from the game hall on the ground floor of the Mihua Hotel building wearing a black plush coat.

"Is it Vodka's responsibility to contact Tequila now?"

Yin Jiu's fingers stroked the handle of the umbrella in his hand, and the umbrella was slightly pressed down to cover his mouth shape.

"Tell Tequila to pay attention. I always feel like there's something we overlooked."

Yin Jiu thought back to the possible wrongful killing case that Tequila might encounter this time, and reflexively gave a warning in advance.

"Glenfiddich, do you mean someone is targeting us?" Vodka had been following Gin in the car and listening to Yin Jiu's movements. The finger that was about to answer Tequila's call immediately stopped, "Then Tequila called, should we answer it?"

"Got it. The situation is a bit complicated. It's best to take this box back to headquarters for a fresh inspection. I'll explain in detail when I get back to the car."

Yin Jiu spoke very quickly, but walked at a leisurely pace.

Vodka has answered the call in the headset.

"Hey, Tequila?"

"It's me, the mission has been accomplished." Tequila, who had just received the box, sounded relieved.

"Tequila, check your surroundings. Don't linger. Take the things directly to Base 1." Vodka lowered his voice and looked at the location pointed by Gin's phone and added, "Take a car and go there by yourself."

"Don't worry, Vodka." Tequila's muscles became stiff because of his companion's reminder, but soon relaxed. This mission was too smooth. Gin and Vodka didn't see it. The Mantiantang employee who was trading with him was obviously scared. He didn't dare to do anything with that look.

Tequila didn't care about Vodka's nervousness. "I'll meet up with you guys before evening. Please tell Brother Gin for me."

Yin Jiu happened to go around the back of the building and heard every word of the conversation between the two people in the headset.

Tequila's completely indifferent attitude made the silent Gin and Glenfiddich frown frequently.

"Tell him not to open the box and check it first." Yin Jiu had already walked to the Porsche 356A. He tapped the car window with his fingers, typed the words on the screen of his mobile phone and turned it over to show Vodka.

"..." Vodka nodded, and looked at Brother Gin who had a cold face and acquiesced without saying anything to stop him. He was about to open his mouth to remind him, but there was a crackling sound of objects falling to the ground from Tequila's end.

"What's that sound?" Vodka narrowed his eyes alertly.

"It was a kid. He dropped the money." Tequila paused for a second, probably to recheck the surroundings, then he exhaled, "Since someone is coming over, I'll hang up first. See you later."

"Wait..."

Before Vodka could finish his next sentence, a busy tone came from the headset of his phone. "Damn it, I didn't say I wouldn't open the box yet."

"..." Gin watched the entire ineffective communication between Vodka and Tequila, and veins popped out on his forehead.

Everyone in this organization has become arrogant and conceited, relying on their seniority.

"Tequila is so excessive. How can he bully Vodka like this just because he thinks the guardian is not around?" Yin Jiu opened the car door and was not at all worried about Tequila's situation.

It was just a sudden thought to rescue him, but the situation just now clearly showed that the other party had no desire to survive.

Yin Jiu slowly leaned back in his chair. He always respected the fate of those who wanted to die.

"But it seems that Vodka is also an expert with bombs?"

"bomb?"

Gin's attention was drawn along with Vodka's exclamation.

"Oh, there were so many people outside just now that I didn't have time to say anything." Yin Jiu paused, slowly rolled up the car window, and sat a little further inside before continuing, "In fact, I suspect that Tequila's transaction items were swapped, and there is a high possibility that what was inside was a bomb."

"Oh? Did you get the news in advance?" Gin looked sharp.

"How is this possible? I observed it." Yin Jiu shook his head to deny it, then he leaned forward, put his hands on the back of Gin's chair, and his expression became aggrieved.

"Mr. Guardian, do you doubt me? A highly destructive thing like a bomb is definitely not placed by an official organization. This is an accident, and I can't predict the future, so how could I get the news in advance?"

"And I came to this conclusion because I was responsible for tracking the target. So long before the target exchanged keys with Tequila, I saw the target's key being swapped by his colleague."

“Isn’t it normal that I would think of a bomb first when it is placed in such a large work box?” Yin Jiu concluded in an innocent tone.

Gin laughed out of anger.

"If that's the case, why didn't you report it?" Gin looked at the idiot's head almost touching his shoulder, and he almost couldn't help but pull out his gun.

Gin knows that Glenfiddich can't be a mouse, but no one can guarantee where this idiot will dig a hole for you to discover!

"How can this be called knowing and not reporting?!" Yin Jiu's eyes widened and he immediately retorted, "I told you the first time, Gin. If there weren't so many people around, I would have said it directly."

Yin Jiu took out a bunch of keys with the number 99 from his pocket and said, "And I didn't do nothing. It's just that the two employees exchanged keys. The so-called bomb is just my personal guess. So for the sake of safety, didn't I take the other employee's key as well?"

Gin: “…” He took back what he just said. Although the fool liked to dig holes, he could fill them up every time. Even he had to admit that Glenfiddich was flawless in its handling of the matter.

"This way we have made preparations for both scenarios. I called you as soon as I got the key."

Feeling that Gin's mood was getting better, Yin Jiu hooked the keychain on his index finger and turned it around and around, "If everything goes as I guess, then the best result is not to let the box explode in the mall."

"If we do this, no accidents will happen, and naturally we won't attract the Metropolitan Police Department's investigation. Afterwards, we can take the other box away without anyone noticing, and we can be absolutely sure of success."

"But on the contrary, if Tequila has a problem," Yin Jiu slapped the key on the armrest of Gin's chair, pushed it towards Gin's hand and shook his head regretfully.

"So in order to prevent further investigation, this key that is suspected to have been swapped will have to be discarded. All the information and clues will be returned to the starting point. We can only go to the target of the mission to obtain it again."

"It's a pity that if we do this, there will be more traces of us."

"A guy who is more likely to cause trouble than to do anything good!" Gin took the key handed over by Yin Jiu and immediately felt that Glenfiddich did a good job.

However, after listening to Yin Jiu's analysis and recalling the call that was hung up by Tequila earlier, Gin felt a breath stuck in his heart again.

Something that is more than enough to succeed but more than enough to fail!

He won't eat even if it's right in front of his mouth. He's almost dead but still wandering around outside!

Gin's face was as gloomy as water and he stopped talking. Instead, he used the computer to arrange the possible 'aftermath' work that might come.

"Tequila has been acting more and more independently recently. The failure of this mission was entirely the result of him being too lax."

Vodka had already determined that the mission had failed. He was still angry about Tequila hanging up the phone, but after listening to the conversation between the two, he understood Tequila's situation.

Compared to Gin's anger, Vodka was more worried, "Glenfiddich, do you think Tequila will open the box?"

"He will."

Yin Jiu couldn't bear to see Vodka's hopeful look shattered, so he turned his head to the side, "Tequila is an old member. Even if he slacked off, given our organization's usual style, there's no way he would slack off and go back to the base without checking the samples."

Yin Jiu gave a positive answer. Vodka is a highly concentrated but pure liquor. It is colorless and tasteless. It only has a strong smell of alcohol, but it is pure and free of impurities.

Perhaps it is because of this characteristic that Gin can feel at ease letting Vodka follow him around.

Yin Jiu took a deep look at a bottle of liquor that he had never taken away from the Mihua Hotel building, and sighed silently, "There was someone behind Tequila at the time. Although it was just a child, Tequila chose to leave before the other party's parents came over, so he did not do anything wrong..."

This result happened, and we can only say it was fate.

Yin Jiu tried to comfort Vodka when he heard a loud bang coming from the building, followed by countless panicked screams and horns.

"Ugh..."

Yin Jiu patted Vodka's shoulder and said, "It seems that the angel of luck is not on our side."
