Gin likes me?

Since Kogoro Mori was so happy about it, Uozuka Saburo didn't want to hesitate and let down Kogoro Mori's awareness.

However, when they finally agreed on the plan and parted ways with Uozuka Saburo, Uozuka Saburo couldn't help but stop. Without looking back, he assured Maori Kogoro in a very serious tone that he would handle the matter properly this time and would not let anyone get into trouble.

Saburo Uozuka is in a very happy mood right now.

Because he discovered that he had completely integrated into this world. He had friends he could confide in, a girlfriend who cared for him and loved him, and people who cared about him and who cared about him.

This made Uozuka Saburo feel that the courage on his shoulders was even heavier, but he did not hate this heavy feeling! It was this heavy feeling that told Uozuka Saburo that he was living his own life in a real way.

Well, now that he has made up his mind, Uozuka Saburo must make this plan more perfect.

In the following period of time, Saburo Uozuka did not accept any tasks from the organization and completely focused his time on his own plans for the evening.

Rum pretended not to see it and completely approved of Uozuka Saburo's actions.

Although he had no idea what Uozuka Saburo was preparing for, Rum was not curious. He just wanted to get the results he wanted to see.

And Saburo Uozuka would certainly not expose the affairs of Liu Hu and Kogoro Mori to Rum, so he simply selected some action records that were reasonable and would not arouse Rum's suspicion, and after discussing with Kimura Takashi, he asked Kimura Takashi to report them.

Yes, as long as we have people in the organization, everything will be easy.

With Rum's tacit consent, Uozuka Saburo took some guns and ammunition from the organization's armory, and more guns and ammunition were collected and purchased with the help of Fuyuki Otogen, who had already eliminated Akasaka Kimura's power and confiscated his territory and property.

Although it is very convenient to buy weapons and other things in Magnesium, Saburo Uozuka feels that it is better to get everything that can be done in Japan in Japan, which will save him a lot of worry and peace of mind.

As for how to transport the goods from Japan to Magnesium, after hesitating for a moment, Saburo Uozuka gritted his teeth and found his "good president" Suzuki Ayako. With Suzuki Ayako's unhesitating promise, he used the Suzuki Group's ships to solve the problem of cargo transportation.

Of course, it was because of this request that the perceptive Suzuki Ayako noticed something. Amidst the pitiful eyes and soft and hard pleading, Uozuka Saburo still briefly stated his purpose.

Upon learning that Saburo Uozuka was going to do a very dangerous thing for his greatest enemy, Suzuki Ayako had mixed feelings, but did not stop Saburo Uozuka.

As a woman of the Suzuki family, she knew what attitude she needed most at this moment.

Saburo Uozuka was able to not consider giving up the idea of ​​Kurosawa Hotaru when facing such danger. Suzuki Ayako believed that Saburo Uozuka would treat her in the same way!

After comforting Suzuki Ayako, Uozuka Saburo thought for a while and told Asai Narumi, Akiba Reiko, and Hagiwara Chisatsu that he would be leaving Neon temporarily. However, he did not say more, just that he could not contact them for the time being.

Then, after receiving the express delivery from abroad, opening the box and looking at the three exquisite human skin masks made by Vermouth, Saburo Uozuka thought about his plan and breathed a long sigh of relief.

The props are set up and the staffing is complete.

Well, we can start the group now!

383: Of course I am in... Tokyo!

"Yes, Big Sister, I've been very busy recently. I don't know what Rum is thinking. Many tasks are obviously not for cadres of my level to do, but they must be assigned to me. Don't you think this is unfair?"

Putting the phone to his ear, Saburo Uozuka, who was sitting in the passenger seat, complained unhappily, as if he was really tired and helpless because of Rum's arrangement.

"You are completing tasks too quickly. If you encounter tasks that are not urgent, just slow down a little and give yourself some time to rest."

A voice that was more mature and hoarse than before came from the phone. Although there was no hint of kindness and gentleness in it, Uozuka Saburo, who knew Kurosawa Hotaru well, knew that his big sister had begun to feel sorry for him.

Saburo Uozuka believed that if he continued to complain, the call between him and Kurosawa Hotaru would have been hung up as soon as Kurosawa Hotaru went to find Rum to argue.

So, quit while you're ahead.

"By the way, Big Sister, you have already obtained the wine name, why don't you come back? Could it be that Vermouth won't let you go?"

It was a bit abrupt, but it was also normal to shift the topic to this side. Uozuka Saburo was very calm so that Kurosawa Hotaru on the other end of the phone did not become suspicious.

"Well, there are still some things to deal with. After that, I will go back to Neon to find you, Uozuka." Hearing the straightforward expression of his longing for himself from Uozuka Saburo, even Kurosawa Hotaru, who was used to having a cold face, couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth.

Even though Kurosawa Hotaru was obsessed with revenge and focused all her energy and attention on training and completing missions and had no idea what feelings were, she still understood which feeling would make her feel involuntarily happy and warm.

Well, just staying by Uozuka Saburo's side, even if they did nothing, just the two of them quietly staring blankly for an entire afternoon, Kurosawa Hotaru would not feel bored at that time.

"What's the matter? Is it a trouble?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just something I have to do." Although Kurosawa Hotaru's questioning brought up some strange emotions, he still answered in his own style.

"Don't worry, Uozuka, it will be over soon."

"Okay, I understand, big sister."

"Well, you are still in Tokyo, right?" Kurosawa Hotaru, who was about to hang up the phone, suddenly asked a question that he thought was nonsense for some reason.

"Yes, I'm in Tokyo. I'm already too busy with tasks in Tokyo. I won't go to other cities."

"I understand. Just be careful."

"Okay, big sister. I'm really looking forward to seeing you again~" After hanging up the phone with a smile, Uozuka Saburo looked out the car window at the Statue of Liberty that had just passed by, with a somewhat subtle expression.

Unknowingly, he told another lie to Kurosawa Hotaru.

Yes, two hours ago, Saburo Uozuka had just arrived in New York, and found Kogoro Mori and Liu Hu, who had arrived earlier at different times, at the agreed location. Then Liu Hu drove to another safe house prepared for them by Vermouth.

"New York, I haven't been here for a long time." With a cigarette in his mouth, Liu Hu looked at the endless stream of vehicles around him and shook his head with some emotion.

Although I am not convinced, but judging from the number of vehicles alone, there are indeed a lot more than in my hometown.

"It turns out that Brother Liu has been to New York. That's amazing. This is my first time here." Kogoro Maori, who was sitting in the back seat, was also looking at the scenery of a foreign country with some curiosity.

After all, among the three people, Kogoro Mouri is the most panicked one now.

Although Kogoro Mori had no regrets after agreeing to Uozuka Saburo, no matter what kind of danger or predicament he faced, Kogoro Mori believed that he had the ability to overcome it on his own and help Uozuka Saburo.

Then, Kogoro Mori never expected that after he agreed to Uozuka Saburo, the first difficulty he faced would come so quickly and violently.

He can't speak English!

This is very fatal for Kogoro Mori who is going to carry out a mission in Magnesium. Although Kogoro Mori can pretend to be dumb and not say a word, and there is no need to communicate with strangers, it will undoubtedly be a very convenient thing if he can understand English communication.

Uozuka Saburo felt that this was very necessary.

Then, Kogoro Mori, with no choice but to cry, signed up for a 7-day English speaking crash course at the request of Saburo Uozuka.

On average, he trained in English for 10 hours a day. Although the effect was remarkable, it was also a very painful experience for Kogoro Mori.

It was so painful that even after being certified by the training class teachers, Uozuka Saburo, and Liu Hu, that Maori Kogoro could now have normal conversations without any problems, Maori Kogoro still had a great fear of English, fearing that he would have problems.

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, for us, no matter which city it is, it's all the same." He shrugged indifferently. Although this was his first time in Magnesium, the experience of reading explosive messages on the Internet in his previous life made Uozuka Saburo not very interested in coming to a new country.

Of course, more importantly, Saburo Uozuka has no time for sightseeing during his visit to Magnesium this time!

They are here to do serious business.

"When we get to the safe house, which is about 500 meters away, drop me off. I'll go to the safe house and wait for you. Brother Liu, you and Brother Maori can go to the hotel you booked and wait for me. If you have any news, please email me anytime."

"No problem, leave this to me. But if you go to the meeting alone, do you really not need me to keep an eye on you?" After exhaling a puff of smoke, Liu Hu seemed to be very familiar with it. However, he still had some opinions about Uozuka Saburo's choice to meet alone.

"That's right, Kurosawa, I also think that it's a bit risky for you to go alone. After all, they are the ones who are truly part of the same organization." Knowing only that Uozuka Saburo was going to meet with a member of his 'undercover' organization to exchange information, Maori Kogoro seemed even more serious.

Kogoro Mori, who had fought many battles with Saburo Uozuka and that "organization" and had also carried out many sabotage missions, was deeply aware of how vicious the members of that organization were and how powerful that organization was!

"Don't worry, I can still guarantee this matter. Although I can't let you meet each other, I still have some trust in her."

"After all, the other party has the same idea as us, and they all want that person to die!"

384: After two years, you are still so shameless

"I really didn't expect that I would actually go out on an assassination mission one day."

Sitting in the living room of the hotel with a somewhat melancholy look on his face, Kogoro Mouri lit a cigarette.

"You know, I was a police officer of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department at the beginning, but now I have become a... killer?"

"This is what we call the impermanence of life, isn't it, Maori? This is the fun of life. You never know which one will come first, tomorrow or an accident~" Looking at Kogoro Maori with a smile, Liu Hu, who was standing by the window and scanning the hotel, was monitoring the entire street from his high vantage point.

You should know that this hotel, including this room, was specially selected by Liu Hu after he learned from Uozuka Saburo about the safe house arranged for them by Vermouth, in order to have a better perspective for surveillance.

From the moment he set foot on New York soil, the more experienced Liu Hu knew that the only people he could trust were Uozuka Saburo and Mori Kogoro. Apart from them, he could not entrust his safety to anyone else!

"You're right. If possible, I actually want to continue to be a policeman, go to work every day, and spend time with my wife and daughter after work." He nodded helplessly. After Liu Hu arrived in Neon, Uozuka Saburo took the time to bring Liu Hu to Maori Kogoro the next day so that they could get to know each other.

And during the period of waiting for Vermouth's notification, Liu Hu had been helping Kogoro Mori with corrections and guidance in shooting training.

You know, Liu Hu's guidance is much better than those trainers in the training ground. Maori Kogoro also benefited a lot. At the same time, he gradually came to respect this Chinese brother who is older than him, has a generous personality, but is powerful.

And through the narration of Uozuka Saburo and some revelations made by Mori Kogoro during casual conversations, Liu Hu also had a deep understanding of Mori Kogoro.

Liu Hu admires Kogoro Mori very much. Although he is a Japanese, Kogoro Mori's character and awareness, as well as his responsibility as a man and a former policeman, make Liu Hu feel that he is a real man.

Of course, after seeing each other's appearance and looking forward to each other, Liu Hu and Maori Kogoro admired Uozuka Saburo even more, and they actually knew such a great person.

"After smoking this cigarette, let's forget about this idea. We don't have time to think about our next action." Liu Hu couldn't help but frowning as he stared at several people entering and leaving the apartment opposite.

According to what Saburo Uozuka told him, the member of the organization named Vermouth was indeed a woman. However, until now, the agreed time mentioned by Saburo Uozuka has passed, and no woman has entered or left the apartment opposite.

but.

"Tsk, I'm stupid." Thinking that the exquisite human skin mask he put in the suitcase was also made by the person named Vermouth, Liu Hu felt that his action of stalking was stupid.

How could someone who is so proficient in makeup and disguise be discovered so easily by himself?

"I still underestimated everyone in the world. I can't be so casual about it."

"What's wrong, Brother Liu, have you discovered something?" Attracted by Liu Hu's mumbling, Maori Kogoro slowly walked to the window and carefully looked outside.

"Nothing was found. It seems that what Kurosawa said is right. We can't help much over there for the time being." Shaking his head slightly, Liu Hu decided not to worry about the affairs of Uozuka Saburo for the time being.

"Mauri, is there any news about the phone that Kurosawa left behind?"

"Well, I just received a message saying that the ship will arrive at the port around 11:40 tonight, and we need to make time to go there." Nodding slightly, Kogoro Mori actually had bigger doubts in his mind that he didn't ask.

He never imagined that the ship that Uozuka Saburo asked to transport the goods was actually from the First Suzuki Group!

What Kogoro Mori could not believe was that the Suzuki Group was actually willing to take such a risk for Uozuka Saburo and use their own cargo ship to transport a whole box of arms.

Thinking of the weapons and ammunition that had been prepared and added because of Uozuka Saburo's efforts to be safe, Kogoro Mori's palpitating colleagues also became a little excited.

After all, he is a man, who doesn’t like big and powerful firepower equipment!

"Well, by that time, Kurosawa should have completed the information exchange. We can go together then. Now, let's take a short break and adjust to the jet lag." Sitting back on the sofa and lighting a cigarette, Liu Hu looked much better than Maori Kogoro.

"By the way, Maori."

"What's wrong, Brother Liu?"

"From now on, be prepared to kill at any time. Even if you don't consider yourself or Kurosawa, you must remember that there are people waiting for you to return home."

"...I know, Brother Liu, I have thought about this kind of thing very clearly a long time ago." With a flicker in his eyes, Maori Kogoro grinned and nodded at Liu Hu.

"Haha, this is also what I like most about you. Okay, don't worry. If the three of us attack together, it's just a matter of killing one person. It's easy."

"Hey, I thought so too~"

. . .

"You're a little slow, Vermouth."

Looking at the man who opened the door with the key, Uozuka Saburo's mouth twitched and he greeted him in a somewhat subtle tone.

"I just walked around and spent a little time." Shrugging his shoulders, the man who came in took off his hat and tore off the mask on his face. The charming and beautiful face hidden under the mask was looking directly at Uozuka Saburo with a faint smile.

"I walked around, but I didn't see any surveillance from the people following you. Interesting. It seems that the person you are looking for is not ordinary, Brother Uozuka~"

"What I'm saying is that I came to New York alone. It would be strange if you could find anyone else." Waving his hand in disdain, Uozuka Saburo looked at the mask that was torn off and thrown aside by Vermouth, and then looked back at Vermouth with a look that was all "this woman is such a waste."

"It's just an exchange of information. You still have to go back secretly afterwards. There's no need to waste a human skin mask."

"I can't come to see brother Uozuka with an ugly face, otherwise, how can I be worthy of our relationship, right~" Raising her eyebrows, Vermouth walked in front of Uozuka Saburo, pretending to reach out and lift Uozuka Saburo's chin.

However, after seeing that Uozuka Saburo didn't move and just looked at him with a smile, he stopped abruptly.

"Not going on? I'm already prepared. I'll complain to the big sister later and say you teased me~"

"Tsk, Brother Uozuka, after not seeing you for two years, you are still as shameless as ever."

"You're welcome. I have to make some progress, right?"

385: Jack Daniel's

"Where are the people you brought with you? Aren't you going to let me take a look?"

Giving up teasing Uozuka Saburo, Vermouth turned around and sat on the sofa opposite Uozuka Saburo, crossed her fingers across her chest, and looked at Uozuka Saburo with a scrutinizing and curious look.

"People? For such a personal matter, I can't find help from the organization, so of course I came here by myself." Shrugging innocently, Uozuka Saburo indicated that Vermouth was overthinking, and he really came here alone.
