Gin likes me?

When he has money in the future, he will definitely buy a house of his own.

Saburo Uozuka was not very fond of villas. When he was with Suzuki Ayako, Saburo Uozuka already knew how difficult it was to take care of a villa.

Moreover, due to the special nature of his job, he estimated that apart from himself and Kurosawa Hotaru, no one else would know where his home was, let alone find a cleaning staff to clean it.

"Sure enough, I should buy a higher-end villa in the future. The floor should not be too low or too high, and the area should be larger."

Touching his chin with a little stubble, Uozuka Saburo looked forward to his future life with longing eyes.

Although there was no clear explanation, after communicating with Vodka several times, Uozuka Saburo knew that after this purge, Japan's organization had undergone very big changes.

And in this change, he and Kurosawa Hotaru will definitely be the ones who benefit the most.

His identity is transparent and trustworthy, his outstanding ability can help the organization share its worries, and he can actually kill people, cutting off the possibility of practicing with other hostile organizations.

If I think about it this way, I might just take off!

There was a hint of pride in his grin. Although Uozuka Saburo kept telling himself to stay calm, the joy in his heart couldn't help but swell after the mission was completed.

Even if he cannot obtain the wine name this time, his status in the organization will have been improved. In this way, everything will be much easier.

Although it is not stated openly, the hierarchy in the organization is still very strict.

Members with wine titles have the right to temporarily transfer and command ordinary members of the organization. Except for some special researchers, everyone else can be said to be their subordinates.

Among the members who have wine names, there is an invisible hierarchy. For example, those members who have relatively outstanding abilities and are relatively trusted by the organization can have wine names, but they are not considered core and elite members.

Among the members of the organization that Saburo Uozuka knows so far, only Vodka and the mysterious leader Rum in Neon can be considered elite members. Oh, Pisk should also be considered elite members, but the rest are not.

This is also the reason why after becoming Vodka's student, Uozuka Saburo's invisible status in the organization has been greatly improved.

And without considering these rights issues, in terms of more realistic salary and benefits, Saburo Uozuka will also receive an objective increase.

This is already a very good thing for Uozuka Saburo.

In fact, if Uozuka Saburo was to spend alone, his current salary was more than enough, and he could save quite a bit every month.

But there are still many people that Uozuka Saburo needs to take care of.

Asai Narimi's monthly living expenses and medical expenses are a considerable expense. If Asai Narimi had not won enough scholarships with his outstanding performance, Uozuka Saburo might not have been able to afford it.

Moreover, as he became more and more familiar with the Miyano sisters, Uozuka Saburo, who had already treated the two girls as his own sisters, could not bear to see Miyano Akemi living alone relying on the salary he earned from studying and working part-time and the funds given by the organization "only for living expenses".

Every now and then, Uozuka Saburo would buy some food and send it to the Miyano sisters, using the excuse of eating there, and then leaving the food for the two sisters. It was not that Uozuka had not thought about giving them clothes, but if he really did that, Miyano Akemi, that strong-willed little girl, would definitely not agree. After thinking about it, Uozuka Saburo had to give up.

"I didn't expect that even though I'm already a killer, I still have to worry about money. This is too real."

"What are you smirking about, Uozuka."

"Um, nothing. Big sister, if we take a break, let's go out and have something delicious to celebrate. I know there's a very good restaurant nearby. Their sushi is amazing!"

"Is it that young lady who took you there again?"

"Um... well, Big Sister, don't you like eating sushi? I just paid special attention to it."

"Then go ahead."

"Okay!~"

256: Can I apply for a replacement?

"So, our base will be gone in the future?"

Looking at Vodka with some surprise, Saburo Uozuka found it hard to accept for a moment.

Although from the known information, Saburo Uozuka knew that in this operation, each organization participating in it had gained something but also suffered losses.

Apart from anything else, what Vodka told him about the losses suffered as a result of his organization's layout and benefits in the Neon area over the years had already shocked Saburo Uozuka.

However, what Saburo Uozuka did not expect was that after he and Kurosawa Hotaru had rested lazily for two days, he received such news as soon as he got the news to meet Vodka in the tavern.

"Almost. This time, Rum saw the possible dangers. He thought that the members of our organization should be more secretive and careful, and the contacts between each other should be safer." Vodka said lazily, shaking his glass and looking a little tired.

It can be seen that Vodka has been working very hard these days. As the only elite liquor cadre from the action team in the Neon area, Vodka has shouldered more responsibilities in places that Saburo Uozuka does not know.

"But this time, we found so many people. Didn't anyone leak the situation inside the Pisk Building?"

"So, never underestimate the members of the organization. Although Pisk has been deliberately moving away from the missions of the action team in recent years and has gradually focused on business operations, when it comes to being cautious and self-protective, that cunning old guy can be said to be the most powerful in the organization."

With a sneer, Vodka spoke with some disdain, holding a cigarette in his mouth.

"You should know that those who can enter and leave the Pisk Building can basically be said to be legitimate members of the organization. The worst ones are selected from the organization's training bases in various regions of Neon. The rest of the people have never had the opportunity to know the situation of the Pisk Building."

"Members of the intelligence team and those 'outside' action team members are not aware of the relationship between Pisk and us. Even many experimental groups, although funded by Pisk, know nothing about him. The group of experimental personnel in the Pisk Building can be said to be a group that the organization trusts very much and there is absolutely no possibility of them escaping the organization."

"...I remember that I vaguely heard Big Sister mention that among the members of the action team in the Pisk Building, Big Sister and I seemed to be the only ones who had teamed up with people from the outside group to carry out missions."

His eyes changed slightly and Uozuka Saburo's tone became subtle.

"The big sister is already dead. She was chosen specifically to expose the hidden organization behind her. What about me?"

"Well, as for that guy Daimon, the organization is actually more assured. After all, he has been working for the organization for almost ten years, and there has been no problems. What's more, he doesn't know about the Pisk Building, so there's no need to worry. He's the person I introduced to you, what are you worried about?" Looking at Saburo Uozuka whose expression suddenly became nervous with amusement, Vodka patted his shoulder and poured him a glass of wine jokingly.

"I just wanted you to meet some members with outstanding abilities in the Neon region."

"...Master, do you want me to form a team?" After listening to Vodka's words, Uozuka Saburo not only did not feel relieved, but looked at Vodka with even more entanglement.

"Master, you know, I just need to follow the big sister..."

"I know that you have both good abilities and character, but this is the point that really makes me helpless." He waved his hand to interrupt Uozuka Saburo's words. Vodka's face was shrouded in smoke, making it difficult for Uozuka Saburo to see his eyes clearly for a moment.

"But it's understandable. You two have been together all the way through the training camp, and your relationship is still so good. To be honest, I'm quite envious."

"But Uozuka, even if that girl, Kurosawa Hotaru, can really always stay ahead of you and help you make a name for yourself in the organization, I also think that you need a team of your own." The smoke dissipated slightly, and Uozuka Saburo finally saw Vodka's gaze clearly.

Serious and earnest, completely lacking the playfulness and familiarity of the past.

"Although I don't want to say this, Uozuka can really help you a lot at the critical moment." After putting out the cigarette in the ashtray, Vodka immediately lit another one.

"It was too late for me to realize this. As an elite cadre, if I were to come into contact with other members of the organization too much, it would not be a good sign."

"But you are different. Although you can barely be considered a rising star of the organization, it is precisely because of this that the organization will allow you to get to know and communicate with more members of the organization. They want to see more of your performance and progress, and see more shining points of your abilities so that they can use them. Do you understand, Uozuka?"

"I can help you now, and your big sister can help you in the future, but there will always be a time when we can't take care of you. At that time, you can only rely on yourself."

"...Master, do you really have such an idea?" After a long silence, he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. Uozuka Saburo's eyes became serious and he stared at the vodka beside him.

He originally thought that today's meeting was just a normal exchange of information, and to tell him and Kurosawa Hotaru about their next mission, but obviously, the situation was different.

"I don't believe it's just for that woman in China."

"Uozuka, even if you are my student, you can't say bad things to her, understand."

"I didn't mean that. It's reasonable for me to show enough respect to her." His eyes kept changing, and after a moment of seriousness, Uozuka Saburo's face turned helpless.

"It's just that, Master, in that case..."

"Well, I don't even know what to do, so don't let me make wild guesses. Just focus on what's in front of you."

Smilingly interrupting what Uozuka Saburo was about to say, Vodka poured Uozuka Saburo another glass of wine and clinked glasses with him in the look of frustration and helplessness in Uozuka Saburo's eyes.

"Tell me about your next mission."

"You can rest for about three days, and then I will give you new instructions. You and Kurosawa Hotaru will go to a place to meet up with another elite cadre of the organization. During this period, you must follow her orders to carry out some finishing and deployment tasks."

"She? Is she a woman?"

"Yes, and she is a very difficult woman. Even I don't want to be remembered by her."

"...Can I apply for a different mission?"

"I'm sorry, you two were named by someone~"

“…Fuck!”

257: Don’t pounce on me suddenly!!

"Alas, the road ahead is full of twists and turns."

And vodka from the pub parted a day later.

After telling Kurosawa Hotaru their next mission instructions, Kurosawa Hotaru simply nodded to show that he understood, and didn't say anything.

Except for the first day of rest, Kurosawa Hotaru has resumed his daily exercise.

The environment and configuration of Vodka's safe house are quite good. There is even a room specifically for exercise, which is equipped with treadmills and various fitness equipment. There is even a fighting mat of about ten square meters in the middle of the room.

If it weren't for the fact that Uozuka Saburo's injuries had not yet fully healed, Kurosawa Hotaru would have been ready to pull Uozuka Saburo to start exercising together.

This made Uozuka Saburo feel relieved. Although he did not hate the feeling of training with Kurosawa Hotaru, he really wanted to rest for a while.

Although Vodka's words were not very clear in the previous conversation, after having been together for such a long time, Uozuka Saburo still understood what Vodka wanted to express.

Regardless of what kind of mission that high-level elite cadre from outside the organization wanted to bring himself and Kurosawa Hotaru over, it was clear that he came with bad intentions.

Moreover, Saburo Uozuka had a feeling that when Vodka was drinking, the meaning of his words seemed to be telling him implicitly that the organization cadre seemed to be targeting Kurosawa Hotaru.

If this happens, things will become very difficult.

With a helpless sigh, Saburo Uozuka, wearing casual clothes and sunglasses, walked out of the hospital elevator.

After asking Kurosawa Hotaru and finding out that she wanted to watch TV in the safe house and didn't want to come out together, Uozuka Saburo, who had nothing to do, looked at the time and decided to go to the hospital to see Hagiwara Chisawa who had blocked a bullet for him.

Speaking of that girl, Uozuka Saburo felt very angry.

Obviously, she had a better choice at that time, but this girl insisted on using her body to help block the gun.

How can your frail body compare to mine? I can only be slightly injured, but if something really happens to you, I will be so guilty that I will die.

Standing in front of Chisuga Hagiwara's ward door, he walked around the area twice and made sure that there were no police officers guarding the area. Then, Saburo Uozuka gently pushed open the door of the ward.

"Excuse me, who is this?" Hearing the sound of the ward door opening, Hagiwara Chisu, who was leaning on the hospital bed watching TV, looked over with some curiosity.

After accompanying him for two days, his parents were sent back by Hagiwara Chisu. His injuries were not serious, and he felt embarrassed to be taken care of all the time. Couldn't he learn from his younger brother and stop bothering him after making sure that he was fine?

Thinking about how his mother took care of him like a child, Hagiwara Chisu felt both warm and helpless.

Finally, after persuading her parents to go back and leaving only her good friend Usamiko in the school dormitory to look after her, Hagiwara Chisawa finally felt a lot more relieved.

However, even though he was lying in the hospital with nothing to do, Hagiwara Chisu's mind could not calm down.

Every night before closing his eyes, Hagiwara Chisuku couldn't help but think of what he experienced in that alley on the night he was shot.

Although he is a student at the police academy, Chisu Hagiwara also knows how risky the undercover job is.

However, after seeing with his own eyes that his beloved Uozuka Saburo was attacked with a gun in the street, Hagiwara Chisu found it difficult to calm down.

'He didn't look surprised or flustered at all. He must be used to such things. It's really heartbreaking. 'He blinked with heartache. Hagiwara Chisaku felt that Uozuka Saburo had a very hard time.

In addition to heartache, I am more worried.

As someone who has already stepped half a step into the public security organs of Japan, and with a senior instructor from the Police Academy who is very prestigious in the Tokyo police community as his teacher, Chisu Hagiwara can be said to be a person who will surely rise to the top as long as he does not make the mistakes he sees.

Not to mention, with the help of Saburo Uozuka on several occasions, she is now highly regarded within the public security department.

Therefore, Chisu Hagiwara has also seen the unrest in Tokyo in recent times.

Originally, she had hoped that there might not be anything about Uozuka Saburo, but from this shooting incident, Hagiwara Chisawa realized that she was thinking too rosyly.

The boy I like is always the first to rush to the front line when encountering such things.

Chisawa Hagiwara could not feel at ease when he thought about the role that Saburo Uozuka played in this super turmoil, which was described by his teacher as difficult and the first of its kind in decades.

Sometimes I even complain irrationally, saying that there are so many public security personnel in Japan, but why is Saburo Uozuka always asked to work on the most dangerous front lines?

'I don't know how Zhen is doing now?'

Usamiko went out to buy fruits and snacks, while Chisaku Hagiwara, who was left alone in the ward, was distractedly thinking about Saburo Uozuka. At this moment, she heard the sound of her ward door being opened.

When he turned around, a bright smile suddenly broke out on Hagiwara Chisu's face.

Who else could the person standing at the door be but the one he has been thinking about all the time, Uozuka Saburo?

"You look pretty good, so I feel relieved."

Placing the fruits and flowers in his hands on the bedside table next to the bed, Uozuka Saburo, who was sitting on a chair, looked at Hagiwara Chisui, who looked a little sick and weak but in good spirits, and nodded with a smile.

"Hehe, are you here to see me, Zhen~" Looking at Uozuka Saburo with a smile, Hagiwara Chisu felt that a huge surprise was constantly hitting him.

She really didn't expect that under the current tense situation, Saburo Uozuka would take time out to visit her.

"He looks so tired, and he's a lot thinner than when we last met."
