age is not a problem

The helicopter hovered over the blue sea and departed from the capital of Sicily to the Lipari Islands in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea.

On the helicopter, both Takeshi Yamamoto, who was driving, and Tsunayoshi, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat, looked tired.

Before setting off this morning, the former was pissed off by Hayato Kageji, while the latter was complained by Hayato Kyodera.

"Why is it you, a baseball idiot, who accompanied Judaime to the Lipari Islands to search for rough stones! It should be up to me, my right-hand man, to protect Judaime's safety with me!"

"Judaimu... You have just come back and are leaving again, please pay attention to safety! If anything happens, please contact me immediately! I will definitely rush to your side as quickly as possible! "

Although Prison Temple said over and over in the end that he wanted to go, he was still detained by Li Baoen. The reason was...you left, who will deal with the piles of documents in the office?Anyway, you've been working on approving documents for your Judaime for more than three months, so it's not too late.

"Don't worry, Gang, this trip will be successful. Everyone is waiting for your official return." Yamamoto said optimistically, but then his face changed again, and he said with apology: "Sorry, Gang, Kurihara . . . I'm really sorry."

After all, Osuke Kurihara is his deputy, the second in command of the Yushou department, and has even been in charge of the intelligence network established by the Pengelie family in Japan in the name of "Bamboo Sushi".However, he is a spy arranged by the elders of the family.In any case, he cannot absolve himself of the blame.

"It's okay, Yamamoto, don't mind too much." Tsuna reassured, although the feeling of being "betrayed" is really uncomfortable, but you must always look forward anyway, "He has his position, it's not someone else What he can control, he just did what he should do."

"So, what do you plan to do with him after this matter is completely over?" Yamamoto didn't intend to excuse his deputy, but the fetters in his voice over the years since the establishment of the Yushou department still made his voice tingle. I felt a little unbearable.

"Let's talk about it at that time. Now is not the time to consider these issues... If what he did has indeed caused harm to the family, then deal with it according to the family's regulations."

……

On a speedboat heading in the other direction toward the Lipari Islands—

"It's so slow, you, tieisney, k?" Qingmei said lazily lying on the edge of the boat, and the hanging sea breeze blew her long black hair flying freely in the air.

Nicole, who was concentrating on driving the speedboat, rolled his eyes deeply covered by sunglasses, "People who take the boat should not express so many opinions."

He really felt that compared to the past... she was a lot more rascal, and her ability to blow up popularity was getting better.

"Tch, if I didn't carry your big burden, I would have swum or dived there yesterday evening, so why would I have to wait until today." Qingmei simply closed her eyes and basked in the sun.

Nicole: "...", well, he can't refute it, after all, he is a former subin ace fighter known as the "frogman" unit, and this sea area is not bad for someone like her who has swum through ice holes. It's really nothing.

And that's why he wanted to drive the boat himself and not let her do it... How dare he let someone who used to drive submarines and warships drive this small speedboat!He didn't want to spit all the way in this sea.

"Hey, Nicole, why did you join sismi in the first place?" Qingmei suddenly started such a topic.

"Huh?" Nicole didn't understand why the woman's thoughts suddenly jumped to this kind of thing again, but she still responded: "There are so many reasons, the employment rate in Italy has been so hopeless over the years, can you find a job?" You should be smiling."

"Don't bluff people. I heard that your university tutor repeatedly advised you to stay in school and do academic research with him, but you finally fell into the arms of the chief uncle."

"Hey, can you make your words less ambiguous?" Nicole's eyes twitched, and then he asked, "What about you? Why did you go to the Leghorn Military Academy in the first place? If you got into that school , it basically means that you won’t have a very peaceful career in the future.”

"This... probably because it was the rebellious period of youth at that time, and I had to fight against my parents in everything. My parents hoped that I could inherit their mantle and engage in the same profession as them in the future, and then I was very disgusted. Since their job is to save people, I'll choose a job that requires killing people." After speaking, Qingmei smiled self-deprecatingly, "Well, at that time, I had very distorted and childish views. Bar."

Nicole: "... Then I'm glad you didn't choose to be a killer."

"Actually, I had some weird ideas at the time. I just wanted to prove to my parents that saving people is not necessarily justice, and killing people is not necessarily a crime. And the final result... oh, the people who saved people died, all the way It’s so ironic that I survived the murderer.” Qingmei looked at the sea while talking, with a rare look of confusion on her face, “Nicole, do you think the position we represent is justice? ?”

"If you put it in the eyes of ordinary people, one side is a government agency that protects the people and the country, and the other side is a dangerous mafia engaged in illegal activities. In their eyes, it is obvious who is the embodiment of justice." Nicholl's There was undisguised sarcasm in the words, and his face sank a bit, "But what is it actually... From a certain point of view, it's just a power game between the two sides. I have used it a lot, and no one is cleaner than the other. You have already seen through this point, so you told me last time that you are not interested in being a pawn in the game of various forces."

Qingmei: "Have you watched the movie "The Godfather"?"

"Of course, a series of classic films in the last century, the first one starring Marlon Brando is even more classic among the classics." Nicole replied.

"I once read a film review about "The Godfather". It said that the outlook on life shown in the film showed three stages. The first step is to realize the value of life; the second step is to take good care of the family; the third step is to help the kind The fourth step is to speak out for the nation; the fifth step is to strive for glory for the country... How much do you think our so-called 'just institutions' have achieved?" Qingmei seemed to be asking the other party as well as herself .

"You and I know it well." Nicole chuckled lightly.

Looking up at the blue sky, Qingmei said in an elusive tone, "I'm really curious...how many steps can our current Italian godfather do."

……

Lipari Islands——

The combined permanent population of several islands is only tens of thousands, so Xisha looks desolate to the human eye.

After going to the island, Qingmei naturally had no leisure to enjoy the scenery, and went straight to the place shown in the photo, the church on the main island.

When we arrived, there was no one around.After searching for a long time, I only found the pastor in this church.

The pastor was a little old and dim-sighted. He took the photos Qingmei handed over, and carefully identified them for a long time without seeing one or two clearly.And he also speaks Italian with a strong local accent, which makes people half-knowledgeable.

A little impatient Qingmei directly took off the hat and glasses she had been wearing all the time, and pointed at herself while expressing this meaning in short words, "The person in the photo looks very similar to me. You recently Have you ever seen a person who looks like me?"

There are not many permanent residents here, and it is not a very well-known tourist destination, so if there are foreigners, it will definitely leave a certain impression on the locals.

The pastor stared at Qingmei's face for a long time, and frowned thoughtfully, "It seems... I seem to have seen it before. The woman with long black hair and green eyes does not look like a pure Italian... But, He's taller than you."

"What happened later! Did she come again later?!" Qingmei asked excitedly.

The older pastor took a step back in fright, then shook his head desolately, and said tremblingly, "No... no... no... I won't know anything from now on, and I don't know either. Who is she, let me go, really."

"It seems that we can only stop here." Nicole rescued the pastor who was about to faint from fright, and also signaled Qingmei not to get excited, "At least it proves that it is true. Let's go to other places on the island to find Clues. As long as that person has stayed here, there will always be some clues."

Qingmei finally stopped questioning the pastor, put on her hat and sunglasses again, then turned and walked out.

Nicole hastened to follow.

The priest, who was so frightened, almost collapsed, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and sighed silently in his heart... so scary, is this woman a mafia!

……

In an open-air cafe on a street corner on the island, Qingmei drank a cup of bitter coffee to calm her emotions.

"In the afternoon, where should we go to find it? Shall we search on the main island first?" Nicole asked.

Qingmei took a sip of her coffee, and when she was about to say something, she suddenly slapped the table and got up, and after seeing something, she ran after her.

The author has something to say:

Regarding the age of Yoni, I continued the original work ten years later, and the "resurrected" Yoni during the proxy war didn't look like he was four years old.
