"how is the situation?"

Sitting in his favorite car, an old-fashioned Chevrolet pickup, Akai Shuichi picked up the communicator connected to the panel, and asked in a low voice.

"..."

There was no sound from the opposite side, only the faint sound of electric current flickering gently.

Akai Shuichi suppressed the ominous feeling in his heart, paused for a while and continued to call the person on the other end of the communicator.

"Yuko? Are you still here?"

"...Are you going to scare me to death by making a sudden noise?"

This time, a female voice finally sounded through the communicator, her complaints suppressed in a low voice.If the servants of Akashi's family were here, they would be able to recognize the owner of the voice. It was Yuko Kuraki who had worked in Akashi's main house for a while and then resigned due to family reasons.

"I was accidentally spilled champagne by a guest just now. The butler asked me to come back and change my clothes, and accidentally wiped off the earphones."

After explaining why she didn't respond to the other party immediately, Yuko Kuraki, who is actually an American FBI agent, carefully plugged in the invisible earphones, and quickly put on the spare deacon outfit.

After she resigned from the Akashi family, she did not waste this identity with such a shining experience of working in the Akashi family, but raised this identity in a genuine and down-to-earth manner.

Some time ago, after receiving news from the headquarters, she applied for the position of the Usami family. She worked as a housekeeper in the villa of this big family in Karuizawa, and was responsible for managing a group of maids who specialize in cleaning the house—yes, she was also promoted !Although it is only in the villa where few masters come, it is not the personal affairs of the master.but!Kuraki Yuko has to say that there are very few examples like her who can be promoted from an ordinary maid to a housekeeper in a short period of time!

According to what Butler Tanaka revealed to her in private, as long as she can continue to perform well this time, she can be promoted to a higher level later, from a housekeeper who only takes care of cleaning to a headmistress who takes care of all the maids in Karuizawa Villa.In a few years, there will be a chance to be transferred to the main house!At that time, whether it is salary or treatment, there will be earth-shaking changes!

It is undeniable that she was moved for a moment - of course, she has no plans to change her career yet.However, from another point of view, her efforts were also successful, wasn't it?

Although it seems that there is nothing to be proud of, it is also a display of talent!

It is gold that shines wherever it goes.Even if you are a servant, you can become a role model in the servant world!

I fully affirmed my achievements in my heart. The woman whose real name is unknown, but whose pseudonym was Yuko Kuraki moved her lips slightly, and said a word to Akai Hideo on the other side.

"Don't worry, I haven't seen any suspicious people yet... Seriously, is there really a killer with such conspicuous long silver hair?"

Kuraki Yuko, who had seen the blurred silhouette photo of a man in a black windbreaker and black top hat sent to her by Akai Shuichi, complained.

"He may do a certain amount of camouflage, don't be careless."

Akai Hideichi took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, knocked out one and lit it to refresh himself, he was ready to spend the whole night.

"If you find the target, don't approach without authorization, everything is based on protecting yourself."

This identity that has initially gained the trust of the Usami family is too precious, and it is likely to be of greater use in the future, and it cannot be wasted just because of today's investigation mission.

To be honest, he himself is not sure whether gin will appear in this kind of dinner that almost brings together celebrities from the entire country.

"receive."

Yuko Kuraki replied simply, not planning to do anything, raised a professional smile, and pushed open the door of the changing room.

If Akai Shuichi's description is true, she wouldn't be so stupid to directly bump into it, do you think she has a long life?

So, according to the plan, she was just an ordinary deaconess tonight.

Behind the gate, bright lights poured down.

Graceful ladies, well-dressed successful people, tall and straight boys, beautiful and shy girls walk freely in the huge living room of Usami's house.Handsome or beautiful maids and waiters shuttled back and forth, smiling with uniformly trained standards, and responding to the requests of the guests in a soft voice.

At a glance, Yuko Cangmu has already seen several familiar faces, which she has seen occasionally in financial magazines.However, it used to be a photo, but now it is a real person.

And these successful people, who are beyond the reach of ordinary people, all smiled modestly when they met the host of the banquet.He even bowed slightly.

Opposite them, the beautiful young man is like a green pine, yet he has a serious bearing, his long hair is neatly tied down behind his head, under the bright light, Yuko Kuraki even has the illusion that his hair is shining .

Long silver hair, yes, only the protagonist of the banquet has long silver hair.

However, there is no way this new heir to the Usami family is a notorious killer.

Among other things, the body is not the same.

Tell her where to find another killer with long silver hair!Cang Mu Yuko shook her head in her heart, and from the corner of her eye, she saw a woman in an expensive evening gown beckoning to her, and rushed to meet her.

Just finish your job first!For example, lead the arrogant mother and daughter to the lounge.

"Excuse me, is there anything else you need?"

Kuraki Yuko bent over and asked softly.

The woman who leaned on the soft cushion in a beautiful posture without rest waved her hand, and then she bowed slightly and left the lounge.

Pausing at the door, Kuraki Yuko hooked her fingers to a waiter who passed by not far away.When the other party saw the deacon uniform on her body, even though she was not very familiar with it, she still walked forward without any doubt.

"Pay attention to the guests inside, and don't let them think that our Uzuo Jian's house has neglected the way of hospitality."

The handsome waiter nodded, still without any doubts, just guarding the door of this lounge diligently.

Seeing this, Kuraki Yuko nodded in satisfaction, as if she had already immersed herself in the persona of her excellent deaconess.

As soon as she was about to return to her post, she turned around and saw a young man wearing a dark blue English double-breasted jacket walking slowly towards the corridor of the lounge. Layers of hollow lace, the retro design is beautiful and not feminine.

It is the protagonist of the banquet, Usami's new heir, Teruhashi Tsukimi.

No, after tonight, he will change his name to Usa Mizuki.

Kuraki Yuko hurriedly backed away, stood aside, slightly lowered her head.

"...Ah, I remember you, aren't you a servant in Zhengjiang's family?"

Unexpectedly, only two years ago, the young man still remembered his own Kuraki Yuko, who was taken aback and hurriedly replied.

"Yes, I had the honor to serve at Master Akashi's house. Because my great-grandfather died later, I resigned and went home. I applied again just in time for Karuizawa Villa to recruit a housekeeper. It was a great honor to be transferred to the house some time ago. .”

After succinctly explaining the reason why she appeared here, she bowed gracefully, without the frizzy and shy look she had when we first met.

Cang Mu Yuko is not nervous, all her itineraries can be traced, and she is indeed a servant who has worked steadily for two years or nearly three years - isn't this almost a sense of professional pride!

Yue Jian, who just saw a familiar face and was concerned about a sentence, nodded, didn't say anything more, and gave a command with a smile.

"Bring me a pot of black tea, and I want tea."

Watching the boy's thin back go up the stairs and disappear on the second floor, Yuko Kuraki thought for a while and told the boy's request to the miniature walkie-talkie, and stood guard at the stairs without daring to leave.

With such professionalism, it's no wonder that she has crossed a distance that ordinary maids can't cross for several years in a short period of time.

Sure enough, the housekeeper Tanaka who came with a tea tray was very satisfied when he saw her standing, and the smile on his face was a little sincere.He thought for a while, and motioned her to take the tea served by the waiter behind him.

Under the envious gaze of the waiter, Yuko Kuraki held the plate firmly in her arms, straightened her back and followed behind the butler, and walked up the stairs on the second floor that she had never climbed since she had been in the main house for so long.

"The second floor of the main house is full of young master's rooms. They are divided into study, living room, exercise room, etc. according to different functions. Now I am going to the living room. Follow me for a while, don't look around."

After a routine instruction, the housekeeper Tanaka stood in front of a carved door, knocked lightly three times, then put down his hands and waited quietly.

"Come in."

With her head lowered slightly, Kuraki Yuko followed the steps of the butler Tanaka in front of her, and walked into the room covered with soft blankets.

The footsteps were already light, but the landing was even more silent.

She squinted her eyes, looked well-behaved, but quietly observed the living room decorated with a fireplace from the corner of her eyes in private.

The decoration is all English. It seems that the servants of the main house have privately said that the gossip that the wife of the patriarch Usami is an English rose is quite reliable.Kuraki Yuko recalled the information he had inquired for the investigation, and vaguely remembered that the ancestor of this lady seemed to have had a title.

However, because she mainly investigated the Akashi family, she didn't know much about the Usami family.As far as this information is concerned, it was made up some time ago.

The summer night is cool, and the open window blows the breeze from the garden outside with the fragrance of flowers and trees.Under the window, a handsome man with dark blue hair and wearing a classic hunting suit leaned lazily.

Sitting on the couch was the protagonist boy who had sneaked away from the banquet.At this moment, he was holding his head, his lips were slightly parted, as if he was talking about something just now.However, after seeing them coming in, the topic ended.

According to the order, Yuko Kuraki followed the figure of Butler Tanaka and walked to the side of the coffee table without looking too much.

Just when Butler Tanaka bent down to put down the tray, he lost the cover in front of him, and Kuraki Yuko's gaze immediately caught a dark figure.

It was a tall man with the same long silver hair as a teenager, hanging on one side and resting on the armrest.He sat on the single sofa opposite Yue Jian, but it seemed that his whole body was trapped in the shadow.

Kuraki Yuko's pupils shrank.

The goal that was thought to be impossible has really come.

Fortunately, years of rigorous training had tempered her nerves, and her half-closed eyelids covered her eyes.

Counting the steady beating of her own heart, she brought the tea in her hand to the table, and then imitated Butler Tanaka and silently retreated.

Before closing the door, she seemed to hear the young man yelling in an intimate tone...

Gin.
