Ke Xue invades the three-dimensional

In any case, Qianmu's hair was indeed a bit long, and it didn't take long for it to be trimmed.

The hair at the back has long exceeded the shoulders, and if the bangs are not well-trimmed, they will cover the eyes, and they will slide down when he bows his head, covering the lens of the instrument, or directly slipping into the corrosive solution inside.

"Brother! Why is the hair around your eyes burnt?"

"Ah, I was too obsessed with the experiment, my hair accidentally fell into it..."

"I won't talk about how ugly the hairstyle becomes, what if the solution splashes on the skin!"

"Theoretically not, I will avoid it the moment it splashes. However, even if it splashes, it will leave a little scar at most, and it won't be a problem for men... But you should pay attention, Shiho is so cute , Be careful when doing experiments."

"...It's just a little scar, you really don't care about your own affairs anymore. It's nothing, you won't listen to me anyway."

Miyano Shiho has changed a lot recently.

Two and a half years ago, she was still a vigilant little animal that frowned wherever she went, and she was cautious and stayed away from people and things around her.

But since being taken over by Qianmu and released to nature in a sanatorium with only a few people in a radius of tens of kilometers, the little girl is free to do experiments and live freely. Rye, who can't get over the storm, will study and make soup with her. Also gradually let go of myself.

Miyano Shiho's flying, of course, can't be flying backwards like Qianmu's. On the surface, she still looks indifferent and precocious, but once it comes to something she cares about—or something that makes her dissatisfied, her aura will change. Suddenly changed, so strong that even her brother dared not refute easily.

She can't stand it now, and it's hard to say something that she is very unhappy about.

Qian Mu actually wanted to ask, but his younger sister quickly learned to block his psychological analysis with a cold face, and put the materials brought over from the laboratory next door on the table. Just as the loud sound of "Bang!" As if he didn't see his hesitant expression, he walked straight away with a straight face.

Qian Mu: "..."

He sighed softly, put aside the urgently needed materials, and without delay, followed the cold and proud pace of the little girl with brown hair out of the laboratory, and knocked on the door of the little girl's own laboratory.

He knows the password of Miyano Shiho's lab, but since he urgently needed to verify a key data last time, he couldn't help but stay in her lab—his own password was changed by Rye because of his previous convictions—and stayed for an hour Afterwards, Miyano Shiho also changed the password, and replaced it with a number that Qianmu would never be able to guess anyway.

"Dong dong dong."

Qian Mu knocked on the door three times, ten seconds apart each time, and waited another minute after knocking.

Miyano Shiho didn't come to open the door, and he didn't even snort uncomfortably inside, which meant that the matter this time was not as serious as usual.

"...Did I do anything else to make her angry?"

Qian Mu couldn't understand it.

The mind of a 12-year-old girl is even more difficult to guess than Kingsman, especially recently, the number of times the little girl is angry and irritable has been increasing.

The culprit has never been so helpless.

He recently bought his younger sister a new bag from his favorite fashion brand. My younger sister loves to flip through women's clothing magazines, and he bought her all the clothes that surpassed the girl's age. He couldn't wear them, but he could. Look, all the empty rooms in the nursing home can be used as her cloakroom.

He was also afraid that her staying in the research institute as a child would hinder her physical and mental health, so he would drive her back to Tokyo regularly, and let Akemi Miyano take her to play enough before coming back.

But Miyano Shiho did not.

She often called her sister on the phone, but the two sisters had only met once in the past two years. Qianmu wanted to send her to a reunion during the holidays, but she pretended not to hear and insisted on staying with Qianmu in a desolate place.

She should like all the gifts Qian Mu gave her, but for some reason, the "bribery" has not achieved much, and she still treats her brother with no false words, and there are signs of developing in the direction of becoming more and more lazy to care about him.

This is Qianmu's hardest attempt to coax a "woman" in the past 24 years - and it still fails.

After returning in vain, the red-haired young man did not immediately throw himself into the experiment, but sat in front of the workbench and meditated, as if he was a little troubled.

Someone watched the siblings for a long time.

He has no right to speak about the experiment, but regarding the conflict between siblings... Based on his not-so-rich experience, he can still say:

"Have you ever considered that children of this age generally have a rebellious period?"

"..."

After a brief silence, Qian Mu retorted calmly: "Zhibao's mentality has surpassed the stage of rebellion, the environment and interpersonal relationships do not put much pressure on her, and she is very well-behaved and sensible, so she will not have a rebellious mentality. "

"Is that so..."

Akai Hideo thought wholeheartedly, isn't this already completely caught in his brother's blind perception of his lovely sister? No wonder he is so sensitive, but he can't figure out the real reason for Xiao Zhibao's irritability...

Or maybe they have already discovered it, but they are just deliberately pretending not to know?

"It's not a problem to procrastinate. How about talking to her directly if you want to find out what she thinks?"

"...Talking is fine, but Shiho probably won't tell me what's on his mind."

Because you won't tell her what's on your mind.Hideo Akai already understood the biggest problem between the siblings, but as a bystander, he definitely couldn't say it.

Taking advantage of Ketor’s rare willingness to chat with him in the laboratory, he continued:

"It's true for precocious children...then do something that will surprise and interest her."

"I have given her a lot of gifts, and she didn't have much surprise."

"Only a gift given at a specific time and in a specific environment can be called a 'surprise', just like the socks that children hang on the bed at Christmas, because they don't know what gifts will appear in the socks when they wake up. You only look forward to it before you go to bed. So in the end, you give too much and it’s too boring, Ketor-kun.”

"..."

Qian Mu pressed the center of his eyebrows, and for the first time in the strict sense, cast a serious eye on the undercover person who finally showed his existence value.

"Mr. Zhu Xing, who seems to be very experienced, do you have any suggestions?"

Unlike Shuichi Akai, who seems to have forgotten his code name, he only calls him "Morousei-kun" instead of "Rye" when it comes to personal matters, and clearly divides the relationship domain.

"Yes, there are. However, there may be some sequelae. I don't know if you are willing, Mr. Ketor. Ah, it is not the kind of sequelae that hurt the body. It may involve mental aspects. How serious it is depends on the individual. acceptance."

Qian Mu didn't take seriously Akai Hideichi's mysterious statement: "Tell me about it."

"How about asking her to help you cut your hair once."

"...?"

"Isn't Zhibao slightly critical of your current long hair, plus her usual hobbies in fashion aesthetics, she should be very interested in helping you reorganize your image, not to mention, this act itself represents trust and Encouragement, she will feel it."

"Whether she will move me or not, I don't know, but it seems that both of you pay a lot of attention to my hairstyle."

Qian Mu didn't bother to pay any attention to Akai Shuichi's "doing nothing" that he ignored the information - he didn't want to have more contact with this man if it wasn't necessary.

It was all because the ominous premonition brought about by the soaring blood pressure was too strong, Qian Mu was alerted to this familiar opening, because there were already enough police dogs sticking to him because of a single opportunity, and he didn't want to be hurt so badly. become more unlucky.

Letting go of "trust" and letting Shuichi Akai hang out is for the purpose of fighting against the script, and there is no need to be kind to him at other times.

Therefore, Qian Mu was in a bad mood and planned to drive the wolfhound away in the most direct way.

He suddenly became extremely rude: "It's a good idea, but Zhibao has never tried it before, and it would be troublesome if you hurt yourself rashly. Rye, since you are so experienced in hair care, let her practice with your hair first. How about you guiding me?"

"Well, yes, you really should practice first, this is also an extra layer of protection for your safety."

"..."

Qian Mu's gaze never seemed to turn to the side, did someone speak just now?He is the only one in the laboratory, and the rest are all air.

Seeing him ignoring her expressionlessly, Akai Hideichi consciously took the silence as a default, and told Miyano Shiho about it that night.

Miyano Shiho was so shocked that he was willing to talk to Qianmu.

"Brother? Would you really like me to cut your hair? Really? Let me do it?"

She was surprised and skeptical, but her eyes lit up and she was ready to move. She was several times more surprised than the new discovery of the experiment and the receipt of 12 limited-edition bags overnight, but she finally had the appearance that a [-]-year-old girl should have.

What else can Qian Mu say?

"Well, really... When do you want to cut it? I will cooperate with you all the way. By the way, you can practice with Rye first." He glanced at the hateful undercover with fluttering hair expressionlessly, not a glare but a glare , the threat has a deeper meaning, "Anyway, Rye has enough hair and long enough, it's just right for him to practice, right?"

Akai Shuichi replied of course: "Yes, I will also cooperate with the whole process, just let go and practice, but I suggest that before practicing, we should discuss the direction of trimming and choose a hairstyle that suits Ketor-kun... at the same time As a man, I should be able to give you a lot of advice, Shiho."

Miyano Shiho: "!"

Ding dong——Miyano Shiho's favorability for the kitchen killer Rye has risen.

Her interest was so high that she left her speechless brother behind for a second, and had a heated discussion with Akai Shuichi that day, and even showed enthusiasm for experiments, and even drew several design drawings. Give it to Qianmu to choose.

Qian Mu: "..."

"I remember, it should just be a little bit, trim the hair that is too long, right? What are these things, why do you need a design drawing for a haircut? Men's hairstyles are just casual—"

"What's the matter, Rye said that a man's hairstyle also needs to be particular about it, which is an important symbol that directly affects a person's mental outlook! Brother, do you think it's enough to cut it with a few simple clicks? How rigorous are you in scientific research? "

"..."

"We've discussed it. Your hair is a little curly. If you cut it too short, it won't look good. A different style should make you look better. If you don't want to, just cut it a little above your shoulders. You should also trim your bangs. Now it's not just about covering Eyes also affect your temperament, do you want to become a gloomy and moldy middle-aged researcher at the age of 24?"

"Gloomy... musty..."

"Hmph, although it's just a hypothesis, it won't be far if you go on like this. Oh, Rye said, your hair quality is obviously much worse than it was a few years ago, and now you can still save it with conditioner and essential oils, please. He recommended a few, you take it back to your room, and you will use it from today, do you understand?"

"..."

The boss of the world's largest evil force was turned away by a 12-year-old girl, who snorted fiercely.

After Belmode, Miyano Shiho became the second brave man who can knock the BOSS speechless—no, Belmode is not as fierce as her.

Fortunately, she didn't know that it was her boss's boss's boss, the boss who was [-] times more terrifying than Gin. At this time, she could still fold her arms around her chest confidently, squinted and gave a tough look: "Rye wants to help me practice Alright bro, go for a walk by yourself, don't take Rye with you."

"...Shiho, are you not going to the lab?"

The boss's expression was turned blank, and there was a sluggish look in his fiery eyes.

In the eyes of the little girl who had an exclusive filter for him, Brother Qianmu seemed to have been hit hard suddenly, and he didn't react for a while, and he was pitifully as if he lost two points of hair for a short time.

But her determination will never waver——

"No. I want to practice, and try to practice in the afternoon after the morning practice, and get rid of your messy hair in one fell swoop."

"Unexpectedly, I didn't even go to the laboratory..."

The figure of the boss swayed invisibly.

However, the blow from his sister was not the whole reason for his mental shock.

"Shiho, you and Rye... when did your relationship become so good?"

It's so good that every few sentences have to say "Rye".

So good that he readily accepts Rye's guidance, regards his set of fallacies as canon, and backfires on himself who has deliberately shielded Rye.

Miyano Shiho only gave his elder brother a flirty response: "Rye and I formed the 'Healthy Soup, Haircut, Practice, Jaktor, Physical and Mental Health Maintenance Alliance' Oh, there has indeed been a little more private communication recently, but that's it. The alliance doesn’t need your participation, you just need to be obedient.”

Qian Mu: "?"

Watching the little girl walking away with the barber tool, the silent boss raised his hand and patted his chest, which was too undulating, as if he was trying his best to suppress the blood pressure that reached his temple.

Chi · well · show · one.

This hateful, insidious, bottomless... shameless salary thief who ignores the intelligence of the research institute and finds another way to coax the trust of the little girl!

Akai Shuichi is very good at finding a sense of presence for himself, forcing Qian Mu to face him squarely for the second time, and he carries such a monstrous murderous aura.

Qian Mu knew that he couldn't let it go any longer, so why not go for a walk? In the morning, he didn't even go to the laboratory where he almost wanted to take root. He just wanted to watch the two "new allies" seriously practice.

They chose to practice outdoors, probably because the weather is fine today, so they can get some fresh air.

Miyano Shiho had done enough homework in advance, holding the small scissors for haircuts with one hand, and picked up a strand of black hair from the man with the other hand, pointed the scissors at the end of the hair with concentration, and cut it obliquely.

Click, click, as soon as a little bit of broken hair fell, it was blown away by the warm spring breeze, saving a while of cleaning effort.

It was the man who took off his knitted hat and put on a veil first saw Qian Mu.

Probably when Miyano Shiho frowned and started to do something, Qian Mu came, but he never stepped forward, just stood in the shade of the trees at the side and rear, watching quietly.

As soon as Shuichi Akai caught sight of his figure from the corner of his eye, An Ran felt "here it is" in his heart. It would be strange if Ketor didn't respond.

Moreover, he would abandon his most important experiments and come here, obviously not on a whim, but simply to admire his sister's hard work at the side.

Akai Hideichi waited until he finally stepped out of the shade.

"Shiho's movements are already decent, really amazing."

"It's very simple once you master the technique...Brother? When did you come? Wait, that's in your hand—"

"Looking at the side, I'm also a little interested in haircuts." Qianmu walked over with a smile, and tapped the haircutting tools that came with him in the palm of his hand, "I almost figured out how to cut it, and it shouldn't be a problem, Rye , mind letting me try?"

A little astonishment appeared on Miyano Shiho's face, and she wanted to stop it, because the "tool" that Brother Qianmu took out... was not quite right.

--elder brother!Where did you get the paring knife? !

Swish.

Qian Mu had already pulled out the sheath of the knife, and the blade avoided the direction of Miyano Shiho, and the white reflection shone into the eyes of Hideo Akai, who was looking from the side of his head.

Akai Shuichi: "No..."

"I don't mind" is not finished yet.

Qian Mu was already standing behind him, with his left hand he lifted half of his straight long hair, his thumb slid on it casually, and sandwiched his hair between his tiger's mouth through a layer of gloves .

Afterwards, the blade touched the right under the grabbed hair, and the coldness was close to the back of the neck, which was not covered by the long hair, and there was almost no distance to speak of.

The skin on the back of Akai Shuichi's neck was suddenly exposed to the air. The temperature was right today, and the sharpest point of the blade did not directly touch him. A small piece of cold fine particles still floated on the surface of the skin.

The expression on Qianmu's face was indifferent, and the fine eyelashes drooped, casting small shadows under his eyes.

Except for this strange move—slightly flipping the angle and using a little force, it seemed that he could easily cut off the man's neck, but he didn't show any killing intent, even the right hand holding the knife hilt was calm.

"Would you mind if I wanted to change your hairstyle?"

This is a cold threat that only Shuichi Akai can understand.

Miyano Shiho was standing next to him with an inexplicable expression. After she stepped aside, she stood on the left side of the two men. Qianmu's subtle movements were not obvious, and they were just blocked by the angle and Akai Shuichi's long hair. She completely I don't know the danger implied in Qianmu's actions at this moment.

"I don't mind." Akai Hideichi said calmly, as if he didn't notice the warning that his neck would be cut off between the words.

Immediately afterwards, he said something inexplicable: "Mr. Ketor, if you believe in equivalent exchange, I can also try to entrust you with the trust."

"Sorry, I just believe that in this world, there is no such thing as a fair trade."

The hints of the FBI's inside and outside words were somewhat true and some false. Qian Mu didn't want to waste time distinguishing, and treated them all as nonsense, and his reply was equally indifferent.

When the words came to an end, the hand holding the knife stopped hesitating and moved indifferently in a certain direction.

"Bah-"

It's like breaking a piece of silk.

Qian Mu threw away the neatly cut long hair in his hand, and when Akai Shuichi and Miyano Shiho subconsciously looked at the ground, those strands of unknowable number of hairs had been blown away by the wind, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Brother, is this the hairstyle you chose for Rye...?"

Looking back, Miyano Shiho saw inexplicable complexity in his eyes apart from surprise.

Qianmu casually stuffed the sharp fruit knife back into the knife case, and after putting it away, he touched the little girl's head with the hand that hadn't touched Akai Shuichi's hair: "Isn't it suitable for him to have short hair? At least I think so, the actual effect -- hopefully he likes it."

"I'll go to the kitchen to cook, you guys continue to practice, remember to come back for dinner when it's time."

He left without delay.

Miyano Shiho felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was weird. He wanted to go to the kitchen with Qianmu, but was reminded of the purpose of the practice by his gentle voice, so he had to fall back thinking about it.

She guessed that Qian Muge had a problem with Rye, probably because she and Rye formed an alliance against him, but he was still not at ease with Rye-but this was probably only half of the truth, the remaining half, Miyano It was impossible for Shiho to guess.

After all, she didn't know that Shuichi Akai was actually an undercover agent. Even in the original version of the script, the undercover agent was organized by Pengci's sister Miyano Akemi. After using Miyano Akemi, she turned her head and left.

It was precisely because of this that Qianmu could never trust Akai Shuichi. He had to come forward again and warn this undercover agent with abnormal brain circuits not to be distracted. Miyano Shiho is not someone he can use.

Qian Mu felt that he had made a clear hint and made his words very clear.

The secrets that undercover agents are interested in are all placed in the research institute, so if you don't play cards according to the routine, you don't have to send people away.

He will deal with him directly.

So what if Akai Shuichi is an important character in the script, he can save people who deserve to die, or he can personally kill people who must live.

An undercover agent should do what an undercover agent should do, quickly find all the information he wants, and then, hurry up and get out.

That's what Qianmu expected from Akai Shuichi.

——So, I hope Akai Shuichi can cooperate a little bit, and after he understands the warning, don't let him waste a third time.

In fact, Akai Shuichi did understand.

When he was preparing to build a good relationship with Miyano Shiho, he expected Ketor's reaction, but he didn't expect the reaction to be so big—when he rashly punctured his unsteady state of mind, he didn't reveal any killing intent. It even touched the back of his neck with the blade.

In fact, Shuichi Akai was more or less wronged. He wanted to continue trying to kill Ketor, but he had no intention of taking advantage of the little girl.

His current situation is completely different from the original script. It can only be described as "relaxed like a dream", and there is no need to go around in circles.

Ketor was the only one who paid attention to and wanted to decipher layer by layer.

Once, Akai Shuichi thought that Ketor was a member of the complete crow, mysterious and dangerous, who voluntarily accompanied blood.

When they met again two years later, Akai Shuichi thought that Ketor was the center of the mystery of some unknowing change. His temperament and appearance had subverted the past. He must have hidden a big secret in order to be with a genius little girl who is easy to control. Together, they were organized and confined in an empty research institute deviated from the human world.

Up to now, Akai Shuichi seems to have grasped the thread that directly leads to the truth.

Ketor's attitude towards his assistant Xiao Zhibao is not malicious, not used, and not mixed with any dark side. He really regards her as his "sister" and protects her under his wings.

He did protect the little girl very well.

Akai Hideichi once doubted the authenticity of this feeling, because in a filthy organization, such a true feeling is almost as inconceivable as a short-lived epiphyllum blooming in the dark without light. He has seen so many crows with different personalities. Thor is probably a unique mixture of black and white, and the Miyano Shiho he sheltered is almost white, how can it not be shocking.

Thinking of this, Akai Hideichi raised a hand from under the drape, and brushed away the few strands of uncut hair around his neck, which were a bit thorny.

Ketor compared the back of his head with a knife, deliberately cut off half of his hair horizontally, and the remaining half was still longer than his waist. This half-long and half-short hairstyle is really miraculous.

Coincidentally, the little girl who was well taken care of sighed and apologized on behalf of her brother in an adult tone: "I'm sorry, my brother seems to be in a bad mood because I want to ruin his hair."

"It's okay, I just want to cut my hair short." Akai Shuichi said.

Miyano Shiho didn't believe his words, but she apologized out of politeness, her feet were always on her brother's side, so she couldn't expose it.

She stepped on the stepping platform and went back behind Akai Hideichi. Before picking up the scissors, she looked at the side of the man's face with blue eyes for a while, and her eyes became a little indifferent: "My brother doesn't like you, it's not wrong, The main reason is yourself."

"My fault?"

Akai Shuichi was a little curious about what Miyano Shiho would say, but after the little girl lowered her vigilance towards "Rye", what she said was not polite.

"It can only be your fault. Adults are creatures who are good at hiding things, and it is especially obvious in you, but unfortunately, my brother is the last one to eat this."

"Uh...Actually, in the adult world, keeping a distance is polite, and it's also the most comfortable way for everyone to get along by default."

Hideichi Akai thought carefully about his words, explaining what he saw as nothing wrong with the behavior, the world of ordinary people is like this, not to mention that he has an extra layer of disguise that exposure means death.

"Tsk." The little girl with tea hair was even more shameless.

She used small scissors to trim the ends of the man's hair that was randomly cut by her brother, but what she said was sharp words that pierced the heart and lungs of adults: "Don't you want to be real friends with my brother? Although you sometimes blame me There is a tacit understanding, but the relationship is not like the acquaintances I met a few years ago. If the way adults make friends is secretive like this, then I didn't say it."

Akai Shuichi: "..."

He wants to be friends with Ketor... The little girl still underestimates the complexity of the adult world.

However, letting her think so could explain his concern for Ketor, so Akai Shuichi didn't explain further.

Miyano Shiho snorted, "That's true". The arrogant adult is still confused by the "complexity of the adult world", but she has already seen the truth.

"First of all, I want to emphasize that I don't fully trust you. I just confirmed that your concern for my brother is true. If you..., you should be able to help him, so I will remind you."

Miyano Shiho said coldly: "I have never figured out what my brother is thinking, maybe no one can figure it out at all. But it is not that difficult to get close to him. Rye, you have to show your sincerity, wait price exchange."

"..."

Akai Shuichi's eyes widened slightly, but luckily the little girl behind him couldn't see it.

The little girl didn't know how much a reminder she said after hesitating for a long time shocked the silent man's heart.

At this moment, Akai Shuichi, the first thing he thought of was not himself, but Ketor.

He thought of Ketor's anomaly that seemed to be greatly stimulated, and Ketor's laboratory that was generously opened to him after Ketor's carefree but tragic laughter.

An absurd possibility that had been briefly thought of before but was immediately ruled out resurfaced in his mind, and after rising this time, he couldn't get rid of it for a long time.

Miyano Shiho stopped suddenly, and the scissors did not move for a long time.

After a long time, she said in an almost inaudible voice: "I can feel——you and 'those people' have very similar breaths, but they are still not the same."

"My brother is also different from 'those people', you are more like... no, you are not like, but..."

Miyano Shiho's unclear and messy words proved that she was already entangled in her heart.

She is a cautious and delicate child, taking risks and gambling is not her style, but Qianmu's situation is getting worse day by day, and she can't help him with her weak strength, so she also chooses to take the risk and bet on the certainty in the uncertainty ——Rye is a gentle person by nature, just like the soup he always cooks very soft and thin.

He is different from himself, if it is him, if he is not from "over there"...it will definitely help Brother Qianmu.

So, it was different from the phone call she was forced to make to Gin when she was desperate.

Miyano Shiho subconsciously grabbed a strand of the man's long hair that hadn't been cut, as if to reassure himself again, seriously, nervously, and fearfully, he whispered in his ear:

"...Rye."

"Can you help him?"

The long hair held tightly by the little girl pulled at the scalp, causing obvious stinging pain.

Akai Shuichi didn't blame her, he was just shocked by this brave and intelligent child again.

It turned out that it wasn't just Shuichi Akai himself.

Ketor, and even Miyano Shiho, they are all betting on a crazy game of indistinguishable truth and falsehood, waiting for a result that does not know life or death.

It turned out that the truth had been missed once before.

Akai Shuichi once again recalled the scene when Ketor was "allied" with him. The smile of the red-haired young man and the unwillingness to resist hidden in the laughter all got the most reasonable explanation.

He knew the secrets hidden by the organization, his freedom was restricted, his body and mind suffered unimaginable damage, and he had a child who needed to be protected by his side, so he would not be able to get out of trouble on his own.

Then, the emergence of "Rye" is an opportunity.

As long as "Rye" as the watcher does not pass on real information to the outside world, and the red-haired young man locked up here, he can get a relatively easy breathing room.

The situation may be even worse...Because Ketor didn't even spend much time probing "Rye"'s details, and he did not hesitate to expose the secret that could not be leaked. With his character, he would never be so hasty.

——At that time, Ketor initiated the most sincere cooperation invitation to him.

The person least likely to trust him really entrusted him with all his trust.

After Akai Shuichi sorted out his thoughts, he couldn't help but regret his hindsight.

No wonder Ketor urged him to act, because he wasted too much time.

It’s no wonder that just now, when he tentatively said the equivalent exchange, Ketor would react in that way: he was probably disappointed by his intentional delay, and he didn’t believe that he would give him the same trust.

...It's really troublesome, I didn't expect things to develop like this.

Akai Shuichi sighed secretly.

Even though so many thoughts had passed in his mind, the time in reality still stopped after the little girl's desperate questioning.

He has nothing to hesitate.

"I am willing."

"... Tell me, are you willing?"

"Yes, that's probably why I'm here."

When Akai Hideichi untied the cover and stood up, he also took the scissors that Miyano Shiho put on the side shelf into his hands.

The clicking sound was very crisp.

The last half of the long hair fell to the ground. The man didn't care about the result of cutting it casually. He squatted down in front of the little girl with brown hair, rubbing the top of her hair lightly with his palm.

"I need to make another confirmation. This confirmation is very important to me, Ketor, and you. So, girl, forgive me for delaying for a while."

The panic in Miyano Shiho's eyes faded away, and after examining Akai Shuichi's serious and dignified expression, she quickly recovered a calmness beyond her age.

"...You are also a careless adult. If you expose it so easily, don't worry too much. I will trade your life for my brother's freedom."

"Haha, don't show such an expression, my life is not as valuable as your brother." The smile on the corner of Akai Shuichi's lips flickered, "How about keeping this conversation as our secret?"

"Okay, but I have to double check... Rye, can you guarantee that you are sincere?"

"Relax, girl."

Akai Shuichi said.

"I'm a beast that takes risks because of the bait, and caution and suspicion are also instincts. Since someone forced me a gift that I couldn't afford, there's nothing I can do about it."

"I don't dare to owe such a big favor, so I will naturally abide by the principle of equal value exchange... Return all the gifts of the same amount from me to him."

Exchange your heart with your heart.

Akai Shuichi still needs a little time to prepare.

When he was ready, he would do what Ketor wished—and give him all his trust, no less, no less.

"In the end, this transaction is mutually beneficial and win-win, or whoever loses and who gains..."

Still full of uncertain factors, it is worth calling.

The secret alliance between the FBI's undercover agent and his talented assistant has officially formed.

Qian Mu knew nothing about it.

He only found that after Xiao Zhibao followed his steps and finished shuffling the remaining half of Akai Shuichi's long hair, he felt more than a little better.

The strange thing is that Akai Shuichi, who has long hair that Shiho has taken care of, seems to be in a good mood - this is the point that is doubtful.

Wasn't he intimidating enough?Or is Shuichi Akai just out of his mind?

Qian Mu was puzzled for three seconds, then dismissed it indifferently.

Anyway, after this encounter, Akai Shuichi will always calm down a little bit, and after a while, the vicious salary thief will be able to get away with the information.

——Until the second before being suddenly approached by the green-eyed wolfhound, the ruthless boss still believed so firmly.

"Ketor."

"?"

"Dr. Alex, who I escorted two years ago, was actually you, right?"
