I'm the heroine of a love game in a comic book
Chapter 31 Rum Offline
"Before the car accident, Tsukishiro Yasuko had treated a patient with an eye injury. Due to the severity of the injury, the patient's eye was eventually lost. Not long after the patient was discharged from the hospital, Tsukishiro Yasuko died in a car accident."
Xuejian's throat tightened. "Have you found out who the patient is?"
Amuro Toru pondered for a moment and said, "His name is Wakita Kanenori. Gippson, it seems we all know who Rum is."
After hanging up the phone, Xuejian opened the curtains that had been closed because of Akai Shuichi's visit. The warm sunlight shone on her body, but it could not resist the chill rising from the bottom of her heart.
Seventeen years ago, in the case of Haneda Hiroshi, Rum failed in his mission and injured his right eye, and was treated at Tsukishiro Seiko's clinic. Tsukishiro Seiko failed to cure Rum's eye, and was assassinated by the angry Rum.
As fate would have it, her daughter joined the organization and became one of the people who killed her.
If this is true, [Gibson] will be desperate. Don't worry, I will avenge you before I leave this world.
Xuejian stretched her waist. If that was the case, how should she deal with Rum and take revenge on the organization?
After more than a month of hard work, Karasuma Renya has become very trusting of Xuejian. The old man has lost the foresight of his youth, and only has the desire for immortality. After taking two pills produced by the system, he can even get out of the wheelchair and walk a few steps. As a result, he also gave more power to Xuejian, making Xuejian the spokesperson of Boss overnight.
Xuejian began to openly exclude Rum, leaving all the dirty work to Rum's people. She also deliberately acted intimately with Gin in front of others and behind their backs, calling him "big brother" all the time, saying that she would never forget her roots even if she became successful.
The already tense situation between Rum and Gin is now even more tense, and even the low-level code-less members are unconsciously involved in the struggle between the two factions. It's not that no one has discovered that it was Yukie who was behind this, but with the cooperation of Toru Amuro and Rena Mizunashi, and Vermouth's intentional or unintentional cover-up, they will never have the opportunity to let their advice reach the ears of the emperor.
Great, just slowly muddy the water.
Xuejian stood on the balcony of the villa and looked at the scenery. This villa was the hiding place of Karasuma Renye, hidden among the mountains.
The only ones in the organization who knew that the Boss lived here were her, Gin, Rum and Vermouth.
Today, Vermouth came to see the boss. Xuejian tactfully left the room and waited outside. Unexpectedly, after Vermouth finished reporting to the boss, he would come to her specifically.
The experience and sixth sense of a female star allowed her to discover Xuejian's abnormality first, but out of disgust for the organization, she was happy to see Xuejian fanning the flames everywhere. She even kindly came to remind her to restrain herself and not be discovered.
Even if they knew it, they couldn't say it out loud. Xuejian and Vermouth laughed, "I just stood up for Gin and said a few good words in front of the boss. I didn't do anything else. Don't blame me."
"Whatever. I just complained to the boss. Not only did Rum fail in his mission, but he also delayed my trip. As for the punishment, it's up to you."
Vermouth threw a coquettish glance at Xuejian and walked out of the villa with a twist of her waist.
Xuejian stared at her back, and Vermouth's existence was a mystery. Why did she help him? Was it because of Kudo Shinichi, or did she hate the existence of the organization?
After sorting out her thoughts, Xue Jian lowered her eyebrows and walked towards the Boss with a respectful expression.
After hearing that the organization's actions had failed, Karasuma Renya did not get furious as Xuejian had imagined. He was in a good mood and asked someone to serve Xuejian a cup of tea. After telling Rum's failure as a joke, he waited for Xuejian's response calmly.
Holding the hot tea, Xuejian's brain was working rapidly.
Did Boss mean to cover up the failure of this operation? No, he knew that I disliked Rum, but he still asked for my opinion, just to punish Rum.
Rum and his father are both veterans of the organization. Even after Haneda Hiroshi made such a big mistake, Rum was still able to sit firmly in the second-in-command position, which shows the status of this father and son in the boss's heart.
This failure was not a big deal, but it was not a small one either. The fact that Boss wanted to make use of it showed that his patience with Rum had reached its limit.
What kind of punishment would satisfy the Boss without seeming to be overstepping the mark?
After a moment's silence, Xue Jian spoke hesitantly, "Lord Rum has made great contributions. A failed mission cannot erase his contributions to the organization." She glanced at Karasuma Renya's face and said, "But only by distinguishing rewards and punishments can we show your character, Boss."
"Why not let Lord Rum use his remaining energy to test the medicine for you? Announce in public that you have asked him to step down and retire to the countryside, so that everyone can see that you are a generous and kind person."
Xue Jian smiled slightly. "Speaking of which, APTX4869 is already being studied by a new researcher. I also have some conjectures that need to be tested on experimental subjects. Lord Rum has devoted his entire life to the organization and is loyal to you. I'm sure he would be happy to test the drug for you to find a way to achieve immortality."
Karasuma Renya believed in his own big pie, so he tolerated his small actions and bias. But even without him, the conflict between Gin and Rum has already reached the point where it cannot be adjusted. In the long run, will Karasuma Renya feel that these people are hindering his immortality?
Now that Rum has been found to have made a mistake, he asks himself, as a member of the Gin faction, how to punish him. This shows that he is tired of the fight between the two parties and tacitly allows the Gin faction to win.
Since the question has come to her head, she can't let Rum die easily. Just be a medicine man!
Xuejian's answer was exactly what Karasuma Renya wanted.
Rum and his father had served him for two generations, so he couldn't bear to kill them casually. However, Rum, who had lost his right eye, was too weak, and the pragmatic Karasuma Renya tolerated him again and again, until he could no longer tolerate him.
In comparison, Gin is equally loyal, young and powerful, and it is time for someone else to take the second position. Karasuma Renya is not worried about being sidelined by his subordinates, as he is about to become immortal and the whole world will be at his feet, not to mention that Gin is just a useful knife to him.
The suggestion of letting Rum try the medicine made him even more satisfied. Rum was only useful for this purpose now. When he took the elixir and became the master of the world, he would give Rum a credit.
Karasuma Renya nodded slowly, his eyes showing approval, "You have thought very carefully. I will leave this matter to you."
"Yes, Boss."
