How to file a resignation with Gin

Hojo Natsuki's terrified expression certainly caught the attention of Matsuda and Hagiwara.

"What's wrong with you?" Matsuda asked with concern, "Did you remember anything?"

Xia Shu took a deep breath, alleviating the dizziness just below: "It's nothing, I thought of something else."

Of course he didn't dare to think about "Qin Jiang". After a brief shock, he asked: "Didn't I tell you his full name? Is his 'array' definitely Matsuda-kun's 'array'? Yes." Could it be the name of a foreigner?"

Matsuda suddenly seemed a little embarrassed: "You said that his 'zhen' is the same as mine, but the full name doesn't seem to be there?"

Hagiwara continued: "I'm sure I don't have the full name, but Natsuki-kun said at the time to keep it secret."

【You always call him Ah Zhen, what's his last name? 】

Xiao Xiashu smiled slyly, dimples appearing on the side of her face: 【Secret, don't tell anyone about this. 】

Afterwards, Matsuda and Hagiwara agreed that 'Ah Jin' was the eldest son of some chaebol, and for the sake of the other party's safety, Natsuki could not disclose the information.

Hojo Natsuki was puzzled: "Master?"

He grew up in an organization life, how could he have the opportunity to know that kind of person, could it be the illegitimate son of the boss?

Hagiwara smiled and said, "Natsuki, don't you do the same yourself?"

Xia Shu: "Huh?"

Hagiwara: "You are so humble."

Xia Shu: "?"

In their memories, Xia Shu didn't have to go to school, but hired a private teacher to attend classes at home, skipped a grade to go to university at the age of 15, and wore a very expensive watch... No matter how you look at it, he is a typical rich young master.

Hojo Natsuki decided not to delve into why they had such a strange misunderstanding, and focused on asking about "Ah Jin".

"I want to know why you guess he is the young master." Xia Shu said cautiously, "Is it possible that there are other reasons to keep it secret?"

"Because the car he drives is very expensive. Before that, I only saw it in the "007" series." Matsuda recalled, with a hint of longing on his face, "Aston Martin, I really want to take it apart. Even the four-liter V8 twin-turbocharged engine in the most entry-level model has an output of 510 horsepower..."

Hagiwara smiled and elbowed him: "Xiao Zhenping."

"Can't even think about it?" Matsuda supported him with his hand, "It's not breaking the law."

Natsuki Hojo would not be able to think of anyone who likes to drive an Aston Martin for a while, it is elegant, mysterious and a bit sullen, which is quite similar to Morohoshi's temperament.

...Wait, so it looks like gin?

No way, is it really Qin Jiang?

Hojo Natsuki shivered at the thought that popped up in his mind.

The grill pan gradually heated up, and Hagiwara skillfully handled the ribs, spreading them piece by piece.

"Speaking of which, is your program that can predict the future still under development?" Matsuda picked up his chopsticks and asked curiously, "I never believed in such things before, but Hagi and I did become policemen, and Hagi was in On November 11th..."

Hojo Natsuki suddenly came back to his senses: "What did you say?"

"A program that predicts the future"—doesn't it mean [Laplace's Demon]?

"No way, have you even forgotten this?" Matsuda was stunned. "This is a very successful invention. If it is made public, it will change the world."

"I really forgot." Hojo Natsuki locked his eyes on him, leaned forward, and said sincerely, "But this matter is very important to me, please be sure to tell me everything in detail .”

Matsuda said: "You took a small game console that looked like a Tamagotchi, and said it could predict the future, and then asked our names and some simple information, and told me and Hagi within a few minutes, the future of the two of us They're all going to be cops."

Xia Shu: "?"

He had the same doubt in his heart as back then: What is Tamagotchi?

"You also predicted that Hagi would die on November 11, six years later. Compared to now, it was two years ago, and it has come true." Matsuda glanced at Hagiwara beside him, and muttered, "... It was really dangerous, that day."

"Yes." Hagiwara nodded, "I was deeply impressed by this date. Before going to work that day, I had a subtle premonition. I specially wore the explosion-proof suit, and I also discovered something wrong with the bomb in advance..."

As he spoke, he rolled up his cuffs, and the winding scars were attached to the skin of his forearm, like the ground cracked by an earthquake.

It looks like it has been healed for a while, and the horror at that time can still be imagined from the scar.

"Thanks to Natsuki, I got my life back." Hagiwara's tone was still full of emotion and fear, "Thank you very much."

Matsuda went on to say: "You said that I will die on November 11, ten years later, so I will also be careful... There are still two years."

"That is to say." Hojo Natsuki said thoughtfully, "The current program, the prophecy on you, has been fulfilled, right?"

The two looked at each other and nodded.

Hagiwara picked up a few pieces of grilled meat and put them on his plate, while Hojo Natsuki held his chopsticks, his fingertips were cold, and fell into deep thought.

"Don't you like eating five flowers?" Hagiwara asked.

Xia Shu came back to his senses, smiled and shook his head: "Thank you, I really like it."

This is impossible.

Although the organization did not require it, he also tried to use the demo samples left by his parents to develop [Laplace Demon] during college. No researcher can resist the temptation of "omniscience".

During the two years of consecutive undergraduate and postgraduate studies, Hojo Natsuki never stopped working hard, but the results were always unsatisfactory. The accuracy rate of the long-term predictions he inferred using the program was less than 60%.

Xia Shu applied to the organization to view the research materials left by his parents, but was rejected; soon after, the gentleman announced that the [Laplace Demon] project was completely abolished.

But from the descriptions of Hagiwara and Matsuda, the parents, or he himself did create the "Laplace Demon", and he let them experience it for the purpose of experimentation, and accurately predicted Hagiwara's disaster six years later.

Has a program that cannot be realized in the current timeline ever actually existed?

Hojo Natsuki believes that this conflict is related to his loss of memory, and it is also inseparable from the forum.

After looking at the forum, there are no redundant functions unlocked yet.

He lowered his eyes and edited a text message to 110.

"I was thinking of asking you to predict when I would be able to get out of the order." Matsuda said with a regretful tone, "You completely forgot that you made such a prediction procedure before?"

Xia Shu's innocent face: "I really don't remember, sorry Matsuda-kun."

Hagiwara put the tinfoil cup filled with cheese and durian on the baking tray, and joked: "Is there such a possibility that you know something you shouldn't know through this program, so you lose your memory?"

Matsuda nodded: "That makes sense. Movies are played like that. Amnesia must have an incidental plot."

"Then you will start a relationship with a beautiful girl, and find that she is your first love that you forgot." Hagiwara said, "...It's a pity that your good friend is a man, otherwise it would be quite suitable for this heroine script."

Matsuda's imagination is rather bizarre: "You discovered a secret involving all human beings, for example, there is really a Gundam in this world, so the institute brainwashed you..."

Hagiwara: "Little Jinpei, how old are you?"

Matsuda choked back: "Is your love script much better than mine?"

Hagiwara chuckled: "At least it sounds more romantic."

Matsuda plausibly said: "Gundam is a man's romance!"

Xia Shu looked a little envious: "You two have such a good relationship."

"Don't be envious." Matsuda waved his hand, "You will definitely find your good friend soon."

A few minutes later, Matsuda's bell rang, and immediately afterward, Hagiwara's cell phone on the table vibrated.

Hagiwara glanced at the news, stood up solemnly: "Sorry Xia Shu, we have an urgent task, excuse me."

"Let's go first." Matsuda picked up his coat, "You eat slowly, and when our side is over, drink together at night."

Hojo Natsuki said sincerely: "Work is important, pay attention to safety."

He watched the backs of the two hurriedly leaving.

Hagiwara did not forget to check out at the front desk before leaving the store, and told the waiter a few words.

Then Natsuki Hojo opened the forum interface and began to wait.

A few days ago, he learned that a criminal had installed six time bombs in public places in the city; the bombs were bought from an organization, and the timing program was improved by him.

Xia Shu monitored this person's movements, determined where he was placed, and then skillfully entered the background of the timing program—he was used to leaving a back door for all the programs he handled. This habit is very good, and it is now in use.

Seeing that meeting Matsuda Hagiwara and not unlocking the forum, Xia Shu carried out the next experiment: using an anonymous phone card to send a terrorist attack warning text message to the Metropolitan Police Department.

With a wide range and short notice time, the entire explosive ordnance disposal team should be notified of attendance.

He ate a slow meal at the kebab shop, went back to work, and near dinnertime, Matsuda texted him.

[Matsuda: OK, do you want to go out for a drink together tonight? 】

Xia Li immediately checked the forum, and the posts on the front page had expanded to the fourth page, with 35 posts.

【personal information】

[Visitor 555227[modify nickname]]

It turns out that there is no [Modify Nickname] button.

The terrorist attack of the bomber was terminated due to his notice, and combined with the infiltration of Zhu Xing into the organization, it can be roughly concluded that helping the red side is the way to unlock the forum.

Natsuki Hojo suddenly went numb.

Wonderful, he finally found the right direction of exploration. The question is why the way of exploration is to help the red side? !

It's true that he doesn't have a sense of belonging to the organization, but it doesn't mean he wants to be a boy!

He would die miserably if he kept secret under Qin Jiu's nose, wouldn't he?

Xia Shu was restless and agreed to Matsuda's invitation to drink.

…and then sit at the bar drinking milk that night.

Under Hagiwara's half-smile gaze, Hojo Natsuki explained humiliatedly: "I'm allergic to alcohol."

"So that's the case, why didn't you say it earlier?" Matsuda was surprised, "Then let's go out for a stroll, you can't drink, it's boring."

His proposal was very good, and none of the three felt that there was any problem.

The night breeze in early summer is cool, and the neon lights of the commercial street are shining. It is quite pleasant to walk on the street and blow the wind.Matsuda couldn't move his footsteps in the concept store of the drone, and disassembled it with his eyes through the window. He stopped for a long time before being dragged out by Hagiwara, which was quite reluctant.

Matsuda and Hagiwara quarreled back and forth again, Hojo Natsuki looked at them with a smile, and when he looked around, he suddenly saw a familiar figure.

— Shirley.

The little brown-haired girl was wearing a short skirt and leather boots, talking and laughing with a long-haired woman, carrying a few paper bags with LOGO in her hand.Natsuki Hojo recognizes another woman as her older sister, Akemi Miyano, a member of the lower ranks of the organization.

Shirley was extremely sensitive to sight, and before he could stare for a few seconds, she looked in the direction of Xia Shu.

Her eyes lit up, and she waved to him from afar.

Hojo Natsuki softened his brows and walked towards Shirley.

The so-called genius girl is only thirteen or fourteen years old this year. She likes to eat, likes beautiful skirts, and maybe she is also obsessed with a certain star.

"Come out to let the wind out? Little Xueli." He joked with a smile, "Will the people in the research institute let you out alone?"

As the leading researcher of the [Silver Bullet] project, Shirley has always been tightly protected, and she must be accompanied by many bodyguards when she goes out.

Xue Li snorted softly: "Today is my sister's birthday, and it took me a long time to agree."

Xia Shu nodded at Miyano Mingmei: "Happy birthday."

Miyano Akemi smiled: "Thank you Hojo-kun."

"Who are they?" Shirley tilted her head slightly, her eyes fell on Hagiwara and Matsuda not far away, "Are you friends?"

Hojo Natsuki choked up suddenly. For him, Matsuda and Hagiwara just met today. They could not be called friends, but it was impossible to explain it to Shirley in detail.

So he nodded: "Yes, yes."

Shirley was keenly aware of his emotional changes: "Oh."

Girls are always superior in emotional perception. She realized that something was wrong with Natsuki, and seemed to be trying to hide something, with an unnatural attitude.

She suddenly thought of an event that happened a few months ago.

Xia Shu knows more about software development than she does, but somehow asks her to help delete a blue software... It's also a gay dating software!

When she went to school in the United States, Shirley also had classmates who liked the same sex, LoveisLove, and it was not a big deal.

But Xia Shu's actions at that time may have other deep meanings, such as hinting at her and coming out to her?

Xue Li's eyes suddenly became sharp, even with her critical eyes, those two young men deserved a compliment.

"Which do you prefer?" Shirley boldly asked, "The one with curly hair, the one with long hair? Or are you dating at the same time?"

She has a good relationship with Natsuki, so this kind of question can be asked directly.

Natsuki Hojo was stunned: "...What are you talking about?"

After a few seconds, he realized that he couldn't laugh or cry: "It's really just friends, what are you thinking?"

He even suspected that if Shirley also set up a forum, she might be the main force for posting CP rumors.

Shirley let out a long "Oh——" with a face full of "Really? Don't lie to me, I've seen it through."

Xia Shu was helpless: "I didn't lie to you."

Shirley's half-moon eyes: "Oh——"

Akemi Miyano showed disapproval: "Shirley, how can you say that, Hojo-kun's lover will be angry if he finds out."

Xia Shu was stunned: "????"

Shirley: "What! Do you already have a lover?"

Seeing the surprised expressions of his younger sister and Xia Shu, Miyano Akemi was stunned for a moment, and immediately apologized with a smile: "Sorry, maybe I misunderstood."

Hojo Natsuki knew that there might be some rumors inside the organization, and he was used to it, sighing: "Who is my scandal partner this time? Telling it makes me happy too."

In the past, the targets were all women, and I haven't partnered with female members outside the action group recently, so... this time it won't be Zhu Xingda, right?

Miyano Akemi lowered her head and smiled shyly: "Gin."

Xia Shu almost didn't come up in one breath: "...cough cough cough!!!"

At noon, he thought that there was nothing more terrifying than the name "Gin sauce", and it turned out that there was.

"Me and Gin?" Xia Shu's expression was almost distorted, "How can someone really believe such an outrageous thing?"

Miyano Akemi was slightly taken aback, and subconsciously said: "Everyone thinks..."

She immediately stopped talking, but Hojo Natsuki had already heard it, and was shocked and in a trance.

After bidding farewell to the Miyano sisters, he still couldn't cheer up.

"What's the matter? You look dejected." Matsuda patted him on the shoulder, and looked in the direction where the Miyano sisters were leaving, "Are you friends?"

Hojo Natsuki nodded listlessly: "Yes."

"The little girl is quite cute." Matsuda took out his pocket and took out a Polaroid photo paper, "By the way, take a look at this."

The old photos are well preserved. In the picture, three teenagers are standing at the gate of the orphanage, smiling brightly.

Matsuda looked at him expectantly: "Did you remember anything?"

Xia Shu shook his head honestly: "I don't remember at all."

"This photo was taken by your friend 'Azhen' for us at the time." Hagiwara frowned, with a nostalgic tone, "I used to watch him waiting for you at the door from a distance, thinking he had blond hair, until When he took the Polaroid from me and helped us take pictures, he realized that his hair was silver..."

Hagiwara raised his eyes, and found that Natsuki was almost petrified by the amount of information in this sentence, and the expression on his handsome face froze instantly.

"What's the matter with you?" he asked.

Xia Shu: "..."

Matsuda shook his hand in front of his eyes: "Did you remember something? Hey, come back to your senses."

Xia Shu: "..."

……

A profound spiritual shock!

Natsuki Hojo was in a trance all the way, and returned to the residence with fluttering feet, and he still didn't regain his senses when he lay on the bed after taking a shower.

When he was flipping through the [Love Letter] CP post, he had never seen anyone mention that he and Gin Jiu had met before the age of 17, so he took it for granted that 'Ah Zhen' was not Gin Jiu, otherwise these CP girls would have started dating a long time ago. Wu [Bamboo Horse and Bamboo Horse is the best in the world].

Thinking about it carefully, there are not many posts about his past in the forum.

By the way, the forum.

Hojo Natsuki turned on the phone, his eyes piercing.

He also has permission to post now, why not post a post to ask?

He quickly put on the clothes of CP fans, endured his shame and quickly edited a theme post.

[CP Xiang/Qin Shu] Who was the good friend of the schoolbag before the age of 17?Did someone pick it up?

[The original poster|552277: As in the title, it is that green-eyed sniper, who is he? 】

[1L: woc pure numbers]

[2L: Six figures? ! 】

【3L: Big Sticker】

[4L: omg six-figure beauty! ! 】

……

Most people in the building were amazed at his ID and didn't answer the question directly, but there were still a few related ones.

[106L: Look at the layout rules, the output of the second creation should be marked on the theme separately]

[151L: Sisters persuaded to delete, Love Letter Pi never cracked fake sugar, or is this your second creation? 】

【198L: Are you playing immersive?The fish area often plays like this. 】

【203L: Uh, is the landlord serious...?Did you mean Tsushima?He is not a sniper. 】

Xia Shu: "..."

What does this mean? I did not understand.

Because the pure digital ID was too eye-catching, he changed his nickname, studied hard and deeply learned the CP fan circle's speaking skills, and sent out a few posts.

[CP Xiang/Qin Shu] Is Mr. Zhuma in the schoolbag the eldest brother?

[Help] Black Fang card, I got a plot about the content of amnesia in the schoolbag, can you answer it.

【Help】I'm in the winery, I want to ask who is the person who forgot his schoolbag?

……

... Then he was torn apart because of making trouble.

[Uh, if the love letter aunt is going crazy, can you stop making trouble?Wouldn't it be nice to turn left and go to the Kejia area? 】

[This looks like a schoolbag sfw, it has nothing to do with our double-duty CP fans]

[It's okay, cue, what are you doing, sister Meidi?Don't disturb the sales if you are busy. 】

[It's started, it's started, the American emperor is going crazy → he was expelled from the fandom → we are the American emperor, we are arrogant and others are crazy, it has nothing to do with us, this is very skilled]

Hojo Natsuki didn’t understand why he would be scolded after posting seven or eight posts. Netizens said he was a love letter CP fan who was stunned. Receive fans around the purchased love letter.

He couldn't understand it, felt that he was out of place in this forum, and sighed melancholy.

He let go of his thoughts, and today's scenes played in rotation in his mind as quickly as a movie.

Matsuda said: 【At that time, you took a small game console that looked like a Tamagotchi, and said it could predict the future...】

What is Tamagotchi?

Natsuki Hojo searched and found that it is a pet machine that looks like an egg and is the size of a palm. In the early years, entertainment methods were scarce, and Tamagoko enjoyed high popularity among minors, especially children.

A few seconds later, his fingers froze, and his breathing also stagnated.

...he's seen this.

Natsuki Hojo immediately opened the storage box on the lower level of the closet and rummaged through his memories.

A Tamagotchi.

The blue and white egg-shaped game console lay in his palm, and the plastic shell of the Jenny turtle was slightly yellowed.

When he returned to Japan at the age of 17 and started working for Gin, the other party suddenly threw a storage box at him one day.

"These are your old things," he said.

Xia Shu asked curiously at that time: "Did I entrust it to you before?"

The other party did not answer, bowed his head and lit a cigarette.

It seemed to be acquiescing, but it seemed that he was just too lazy to respond.

Xia Shu didn't remember most of the things inside, and he wasn't sure if it was his own; he felt that it would be a pity to throw it away if it could help him recover his memory, so he kept it.

Now it seems that it has become evidence of Gin's identity.

Natsuki Hojo was so upset that he didn't sleep well all night, until he got into the car the next day, his face was still full of sleepiness.

Vodka asked: "Did you not rest?"

Hojo Natsuki responded vaguely: "Hmm... insomnia."

He didn't know how to face Gin, but fortunately, the other party didn't take the initiative to pay attention to him. The two lived together peacefully for a long time, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

The appearance of Zhu Xingda shattered the tranquility.

When Gin saw the other party, he immediately raised Beretta and pointed it between his eyebrows.

"There is a problem with C8's mission." His tone was cold, "Zhu Xingda, it's your fault."

Akai's expression froze, and he naturally changed his stance slightly, which brought his hand closer to the mini pistol in his pocket.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Akai shrugged, frankly, "I just completed the task you assigned."

Gin got up, with a contemptuous and chilly tone: "Do you think you've covered it up well?"

His murderous aura was like a cruel and decisive knife, intending to kill the opponent Ling Chi.

"Are you doubting me?"

Akai stared at the other party closely, not daring to be distracted at all, planning how to counter it later.

His brain was thinking quickly, and suddenly he thought of a possible mistake, he held off the other party first, and asked his FBI colleagues to help clean up the mess. Fortunately, this was not such a serious mistake...

And Natsuki Hojo on the side also became nervous.

He knows Qin Jiu too well, and the other party's current attitude is really planning to kill Zhu Xingda.

...but his forum hasn't been unlocked yet, and Zhu Xingda can't die yet!

He immediately went up to meet him, tried his best to explain to Zhu Xingda and smooth things over.

"We are all companions, why not..."

After a few minutes.

Xia Shu despaired to find that Gin was getting angrier again.

And Akai was sitting on pins and needles, his back began to drip cold sweat, and he had already begun to think about the worst countermeasures at the moment.

There is a confrontation with Gin here, how to injure the opponent and then retreat smoothly, the nearby route...

He half blocked Zhu Xingda's body, while Qin Jiu stared at him with an indifferent expression.

After a long time, a sneer escaped from his throat: "Very good."

"Hojo Natsuki." He called out his first and last name, "You are fine."

After finishing speaking, Gin turned around abruptly and strode away.

Don't know where to go.

Hojo Natsuki took a big look at Zhuxing, left a hasty sentence "You are here to stare at me and come back soon", and trotted to catch up with Gin.

"Gin!"

The silver-haired man didn't look back.

Xia Shu tried to grab his windbreaker cuff: "Gin——! Listen to me..."

However, the black cloth only stayed in his palm for a second, and left with the master without mercy.

Gin still didn't look at him, treating him like air.

Hojo Natsuki stared blankly at his silver hair swaying behind him.

A few seconds later, facing Qin Jiu's back, he tentatively and cautiously called out: "Ah Zhen?"

To Xia Shu's delight, the other party finally stopped ignoring him.

...but it also terrifies him! !

Qin Jiu stopped in his tracks, turned his head and looked over, his cold green eyes were like icy moonlight.

He raised his eyebrows slightly, with a playful smile on his lips.

Xia Shu: "..."

He quickly comforted himself - ostriches are best at this - maybe Gin just thought it was novel and angry to call him "Gin sauce", and maybe he would come over and beat him later...

Gin stared straight at him, his green eyes were cool, but his eyes were so hot, his emotions were almost overflowing.

He took Xia Shu's bewildered expression into his eyes, and smiled softly: "Remember?"

Xia Shu: "?"

Xia Shu: "...Huh?"

He belatedly realized what Gin had said...

Xia Shu choked: "...!!!"

So scary!

Is there something wrong? !
