A world where only the protagonist has color

"do we know each other?"

The puzzled question fell to the last note, and Zhu Fu Jingguang in the distance still sang the lingering ballad with a warm voice, but the two people sitting opposite each other were only silent.

Toru Amuro paused his smile, showing a lost expression, his slightly frowned brows expressed the melancholy and uneasiness in his heart, and the corners of his mouth that were barely raised were just a forced smile.

"Qianshu, are you so unwilling to recognize me?"

Chisuke Inoue did not say a word, she stared directly at Toru Amuro with her emerald green eyes, her face was so calm that she was even a little indifferent.After a long time, she said, "Why do you know my name?"

The eyes reflecting Toru Amuro's figure were full of vigilance, and the hand holding the handle of the wine glass pushed the untouched cocktail halfway away, silently resisting the fine wine offered by the person in front of him.Every word and deed seems to say: I don't feel safe drinking the wine you brought over.

Jiang Gu Ling should have been sad, but was treated with a defensive attitude by his beloved, and even pushed away the fine wine he made himself.

But he is Toru Amuro, a member of an organization that should not have any intersection with the Metropolitan Police Department.With the corner of his mouth raised, Amuro showed a relieved expression, but continued to play the role he should play: "You really don't remember me?"

"I remember," Chisuke Inoue replied coldly, "The waiter I met at the western restaurant yesterday."

She crossed her fingers on her chin, leaned forward with a sense of interrogation oppression, narrowed her eyes and stared at Toru Amuro, unwilling to miss the details of his face.

"If you don't tell me, I forgot. I registered my name during the meal yesterday, but I didn't expect you to remember it when there were so many people dining. But I don't remember that I am so close to you that I can call you by name or even reminisce about the old days. Mister receptionist."

Deliberately biting down the accent on the last few words, Inoue Chifu silently opened the distance between the two.The estrangement is like a mountain between the two, which is difficult to overcome.

Toru Amuro was silent for a moment, then laughed out loud: "Oh, it's too bad, the trick has been seen through."

He rested his chin on one hand and smiled harmlessly: "Let me introduce myself, my name is Amuro Toru, and I am a detective. Because Ms. Inoue's appearance and personality happen to be the one I like, so I want to try to pursue it. But It seems that this strike-up is so bad, I thought I could use the memory bias effect to mislead Ms. Inoue and make you think we are old acquaintances."

"Detective..."

Showing a somewhat surprised expression, Inoue Chisuke did not speak, but looked at Amuro Toru for a moment, meeting his eyes: "But Mr. Amuro, your behavior only makes me think you are a troublesome and suspicious person, very similar to that The kind of guy who will do terrible things to women if he doesn't succeed in his pursuit."

"Ah? I'm sorry, I didn't expect to cause you such trouble. But don't worry, I'm not that kind of person, and I really like you, it's love at first sight."

The joyful emotions reached directly to the bottom of the eyes, Toru Amuro was happy from the bottom of his heart.One is that it has been a long time since he had watched Qian Shu face-to-face for a long time, and the other is... Belmode's test, they have passed it for the time being.

——"I want you to say 'Long time no see' and 'Long time no chat like this' to her in the way of an old friend."

Belmode's request is a trap buried under the dead leaves, and if you are not careful, you will fall into the abyss full of sharp blades.

When he sat down and said the old-fashioned opening remarks, Toru Amuro was actually very nervous, with a heart hanging high in his throat.He wanted to tap the desktop with his fingers to pass the Morse code, but he was afraid of being noticed by Belmode and would blew himself up.

But fortunately, Chizuru Inoue was alert enough, and when she looked at Toru Amuro, she looked indifferent like a stranger in the true sense.

——"Are you so unwilling to recognize me?"

When he uttered these words in a pitiful and tragic state, the frowning was more disturbing than sad.Because Toru Amuro saw that when Inoue Chizuru caught a glimpse of the aggrieved expression on his face, she frowned slightly, which was a subconscious action that often appeared when her heart was soft.

I kept praying in my heart, hoping that Chizuka Inoue would never respond, but at the same time, I began to think about how to escape with Chitsuka Inoue if she was exposed.

Fortunately, Inoue Chitsu did not respond.

The moment she entered the bar and took a seat, she clearly realized that her actions, including where she would sit, were all carefully planned.

Relying on his higher status and power, Belmode temporarily cut off Toru Amuro's communication, and then arranged for him to talk to Chitsu Inoue as an old acquaintance.On the surface, he made an appearance of "I just need you to inquire about the news", but in fact he was inquiring about the reaction of the two of them - after all, the distance from the table No. Belmode really shouldn't be able to hear the conversation between the two.

Moreover, at first glance, Belmode didn't know which table Chizuka Inoue would sit at when he arrived, and he couldn't prepare bugs in advance.It is impossible to ask her to cover every table in the bar with bugs, which sounds too troublesome.

But that's just the appearance of letting one's guard down.

Since he was invited by an unknown person, Chisuke Inoue, a professional police officer, will subconsciously search for the best view in the bar after entering the bar. Polestara is only a medium-sized bar. Looking around, there are only a few places suitable for insight into the overall situation, but it is a pity that there are people in all of them.Unless one of the tables checks out at this time, Chizuka Inoue can only settle for the next best thing and choose some places close to the door for easy escape.

Probably, the god of fate heard the expectation from Inoue Qianshu's heart. When she stood in front of the bar and looked around, the customer at table 11, who was in the corner with a panoramic view of most of the bar, happened to stand up, check out and leave. A small table for four people was vacated.

Is it a coincidence, of course not.

Everything is arranged by Belmode.

Now that we know the habits of the Metropolitan Police Department in investigations, we should simply design a trap based on it.Find someone to fill up all the seats with a good view in advance, and then deliberately pretend to check out to vacate one of the tables when Chizuka Inoue arrives——vacate the table with the bug glued on it.As a police officer, Chizuka Inoue would definitely choose to sit at the table that they could vacate without hesitation.

It seems random, but every step is carefully designed.

It's a pity that, at the cost of two bloody lives, Inoue Chisuke learned how to balance courage and prudence when facing the organization.

Forced to learn to grow up, and saw all kinds of ugly human nature in a murder case.Inoue Qianshu is no longer the white rose that bloomed in the morning dew.

The order of checkout for normal people after drinking and chatting should be to call the bartender and then swipe the card to pay.But Chizuka Inoue noticed the customers at the previous table where she was sitting. It was the bartender at the bar who walked up to them holding the bill first, and then they got up to check out, and walked away laughing shoulder to shoulder.

Rather than taking the initiative to check out and leave after drinking enough, it is more like getting up to make room after receiving instructions from the bartender.

Facing Toru Amuro's sudden request for a seat and greetings, Chizuka Inoue, who was nervous when she first entered the bar, completely calmed down at this moment.Her reasoning was not wrong, as expected, a third party was suspicious of her relationship with Amuro Toru, and deliberately designed such a good show.

So Inoue Chizuru rested his chin with one hand, looking uninterested, and followed Toru Amuro's words in a nonchalant manner, but looked around quietly, as if observing secretly.

From Belmode's point of view, this behavior conveyed only one message—Chisuke Inoue didn't know Amuro Toru, nor was he interested in Amuro Toru.She thought that Toru Amuro was not the person she was waiting for, so she kept looking around to find the right candidate for an appointment.The wine on the table remained untouched because she was wary of Toru Amuro, a stranger who suddenly appeared and struck up a conversation.

Fingertips tapped on the table rhythmically, seeing that Toru Amuro had no intention of leaving at all, a trace of anxiety appeared on Chizuka Inoue's face, she had no choice but to ask Toru Amuro to evict the guest: "Sorry, because I have an appointment, so... ..."

"I'm being rude, I wonder if I'll be lucky enough to know Ms. Inoue's phone number?"

"Hmm..." Inoue Chiku pursed her lips, hesitating.After all, for her at this time, Amuro Toru is a handsome man with offensive behavior under the banner of love at first sight.

Toru Amuro also realized this, and he smiled and immediately handed out the steps: "Ah, so, please allow me to save my number in Ms. Inoue's mobile phone. As for whether to contact me again, the initiative is entirely up to you. .what do you think?"

Pretending to take the phone and save his number, Furutani Rei smiled apologetically at Chizu Inoue, then got up and went back to the bar.

"It's a pity that I was driven back without asking any useful information."

Belmod snorted coldly, but didn't respond.Instead, Matsuda Jinhei, who was sitting in front of the bar and ordered a signature cocktail, raised his head and drank the remaining cocktail at the bottom of the glass, then put the glass on the table with a bang.

"Continued Cup."

The expression he looked at Toru Amuro was very subtle, as if he was suppressing anger and provocation, but this kind of emotion was in line with the rumors Belmode knew.She leaned close to Amuro Toru's ear, with a schadenfreude attitude: "Oh, you seem to be hated by the incredible police."

Toru Amuro lifted the cap of the tequila bottle and skillfully poured the kumquat liquor into the cup in proportion.He shrugged indifferently, smiled and said nothing.

When he was secretly taken away by Kuroda Hei on the day of graduation, he thought that he would definitely be beaten up by his fellow contemporaries who had a good relationship with him—especially Matsuda Jinpei, who has always had a bad temper. on the big list.What's more, just now Toru Amuro ran to chat with Chisuke Inoue in front of Jinpei Matsuda for a long time, making no secret of his enthusiasm and liking for Chisuke Inoue.

Seeing Matsuda Jinpei's slightly displeased expression, Toru Amuro felt maliciously happy.Obviously he is Chizuka Inoue's real boyfriend—the farewell letter wrapped in chocolate when he left without saying goodbye was selectively forgotten by Toru Amuro.Although Toru Amuro thought very clearly in an absolutely rational and sober state when he left, no matter what choice Qian Shu made, he would silently support and respect him, but now he has decided to go back on his word.

The rumored object should disappear as soon as possible, he is the real genuine boyfriend.

Recalling Kuroda Hei's seemingly invisible concealment and Inoue Chizuru's cooperation, they probably don't know that they have discovered everything, and if this is the case, they will plan.

All men are mean, the difference is only in degree.Toru Amuro hoped that Chiku Inoue could stay away from darkness and danger, and bloom in the light.But if Inoue Chisuke has been pulled into the abyss and forced to stand side by side with him in the dark, then why can't he be the one who brings happiness to Inoue Chisuke.

So Toru Amuro decided that he would keep pretending until Chizuka Inoue noticed something.Obsessed and nostalgic, he watched her affectionately, followed her, and protected her.

Playing dumb is despicable, but it's a choice.Will not let go, Inoue Chisuke will still be the girlfriend of the excellent police officer Fuguya Rei of the National Police Agency.

The clock pointed to eleven, and Chisuke Inoue, who had waited for two hours, finally couldn't sit still, patted her skirt impatiently, stood up and left.Chizuka Inoue didn't take a sip of the fine wine that Amuro Toru made on the table.And because of standing for too long, the beautiful color layering in the glass has merged and become cloudy.

This seemingly unattended invitation had already been completed when Toru Amuro returned to the bar.Whether it is Belmode or Amuro Toru, they have completed their respective tasks-whether it is investigating relationships or clearing suspicions.

Half an hour after Inoue Chisuke left the bar, Matsuda Jinpei also paid the bill, got up and left.He did have a few drinks and ordered some food, dutifully playing the part of the bar patron while remaining sober.Except for the slight displeasure on his face when he stared at Toru Amuro at first, after drinking his second cup of tequila sunset, he clenched his fist with one hand and cupped his chin thoughtfully, without saying a word.

Watching Curly, who was his love rival in the police academy, turn and leave at the same time, Toru Amuro hung the cleaned cup upside down on the top of the bar, with a standard commercial smile on his face, and whispered to Belmode: "Although I can't I got some useful news, but since you are worried, how about I go after her."

"Then find an opportunity to steal the information in her mobile phone or computer."

"Eh~?" The protracted ending turned a few tones, and Belmode, who was disguised as a male bartender, spoke with a playful mockery: "But she is so vigilant that she doesn't even want to take a sip of the wine you made, you just Are you so confident that you can approach her?"

"Hmph," Toru Amuro sneered, and he looked ahead without looking back, like a wolf that had already bit its prey: "Of course."

After a short silence, Belmode stopped interfering.

"As you please, remember to send me the information."

She had seen the email from that guy in Nakatani. The "Black Cherry Blossom" plan proposed by Rum to the Metropolitan Police Department only managed to deliver five cherry blossoms, one of which withered due to trying to reverse, and the remaining three are still in the balance. Well-behaved, except Chizuka Inoue... Nakatani is not sure about Chizuka Inoue's attitude, although he prefers that she is loyal to the Karasuma Group.

But since someone is willing to take the initiative to ask Ying to investigate, and the other party happens to be the most powerful intelligence agent in the organization in recent years, and he can enjoy the benefits, why is Belmode not willing to do it.If you're lucky, maybe this guy can turn Inoue Chizuka into a ridiculous cat, put away all his minions and be obedient.

"Of course, all information will be shared with you as soon as possible."

Smiling and preparing a glass of sake martini for the customer who ordered, Amuro Toru did not look at Bellmore who turned to leave.

Outside the bar, Kenji Hagiwara, who was about to be tossed to the point of exhaustion by waves of women who approached him one after another, saw Chisuke Inoue coming out of the hidden glass door, his gloomy eyes instantly lit up like searchlights.

This is no wonder to others, Hagi was originally handsome, standing alone under the street lamp with a cigarette between his fingers, exuding a sad aura all over his body—although he was jealous of Matsuda Jinpei being able to accompany Inoue Chisuke into the bar Inside, I can only wait outside.The handsome and melancholy man, with just the right atmosphere and light, is like the scene in a love movie where the hero loses love.

He found an excuse and left in a hurry. Hagiwara Kenji waited for about seven or eight minutes in the driver's seat of the entry-level sports car that he and Matsuda jointly purchased.

"Qianshujiang, how is it? Is everything going well?"

"Fortunately, it went well."

However, for the same question, Matsuda Jinpei, who only appeared half an hour later, received a completely opposite answer: "Successful ghost."

Hagiwara Kenji: "Huh?"

"That guy Zhufu and the golden-haired bastard are both in that bar. Especially the golden-haired bastard, he actually went to strike up a conversation with Qian Shu."

Hagiwara Kenji: "Huh???"

That was pretty rough :)

The author says:

In order to prevent some friends from understanding this chapter, let me check the logic.

The game between Chizuka Inoue and Belmode has three layers,

【level one】

Ordinary people must sit randomly when they enter the bar. You can't control which seat is empty and which seat is occupied when she enters the bar.There is also no way to control which of the simultaneously vacant seats she will choose. (Similar to Conan "There are ten cakes here, but only one cake is poisonous. You can't control the order in which the one you want to kill will be ranked in order to choose the cake, and you can't control which cake he decides to eat, so the poison must not be poisoned. In the cake" logic.) Therefore, in Inoue Chisuke's view, Amuro Toru's strike-up should come from himself, rather than being ordered to strike up a conversation.After all, it was impossible for the enemy to predict in advance which table she would sit at.As a result, Chizuka Inoue may be misled, make wrong judgments and lower vigilance.

【Second floor】

But as a policeman, when invited by an unknown person, he either chooses the one that is easy to escape or evacuates, or he chooses the one with a good view.So Belmode asked someone to fill all the eligible seats and installed a bug on a certain table.When Chizuka Inoue arrived, Belmode deliberately walked to that table and asked them to check out and leave.In this case, even if there are still many vacancies in the bar, the only seat that meets Chizuka Inoue's current requirements is the table that has been bugged.

【the third floor】

Chisuke Inoue has already realized that the seat she was sitting in was bugged, so she played the role of "I don't know Toru Amuro" and "Why hasn't the person who asked me out" from the beginning to the end.

Mission: Impossible, Impossible.

Come on, let's calculate each other!
