Gin likes me?

But is it really that simple?

With a doting and helpless smile on his lips, Uozuka Saburo held Suzuki Ayako's face with one hand, and slowly put his other hand on the stage, gently stroking Suzuki Ayako's habitually squinted eyelids, pushing them up little by little, revealing Suzuki Ayako's pupils.

There is nothing strange about the white of the eye, but the position of the eyeball and pupil is enough to shock and praise.

Compared to the eyeballs and pupils of normal people, Suzuki Ayako's eyeballs and pupils seem to be more like a whole, and the crystal feeling is stronger. Under the sunlight, the crystal black crystal-like eyes that reflect a variety of colors but maintain their own essence, no matter who sees them, they will be shocked and then obsessed with them.

This is also the reason why Suzuki Ayako always squints her eyes habitually. She is very clear about how much trouble her beautiful eyes, which are like works of art, can bring her in life.

Suzuki Ayako, who discovered that her eyes were a little different from those of ordinary people when she was young, had long been accustomed to hiding her abnormal eyes. It was not until last year, when her eyes finally stopped changing, that Suzuki Ayako completely accepted her condition.

Because when Uozuka Saburo accompanied Suzuki Ayako to have her body and eyes checked, he said very seriously that he liked Suzuki Ayako's eyes very much. They gave people a dreamy beauty and made him very intoxicated.

At this moment, with this mysterious and dreamy "black crystal", Uozuka Saburo only felt that Suzuki Ayako in his arms was as ethereal and beautiful as an elf walking out of a myth.

"See, Ayako, I have to take deep breaths very hard to keep the passion and excitement in my heart. Do you still doubt your charm?"

Looking at Suzuki Ayako in the floor-length mirror together with her, Uozuka Saburo directly acknowledged Suzuki Ayako's charm at the moment.

"So, Mr. Uozuka thinks I'm very attractive~" With a happy and proud smile on her lips, Suzuki Ayako opened her eyes and looked at herself in the mirror, whose face seemed to have changed. She smiled and cast her gaze on Saburo Uozuka's face.

"Of course, Ayako, your charm is number one in my heart, no worse than anyone else!"

"Really~" Her fingers gently stroked the side of Uozuka Saburo's face and the tip of his nose. Suzuki Ayako finally slowly lowered her head and put her lips close to Uozuka Saburo's ear.

"But this charm seems to have no appeal to Mr. Uozuka at all. Otherwise, why did Mr. Uozuka never think of taking the initiative to do anything to Ayako, but look at Miss Wittels differently?"

"..." His body tensed up instantly, and Uozuka Saburo felt his forehead start to become wet.

He never expected that Suzuki Ayako, who had not shown any reaction at the beginning and seemed to not care about the matter between him and Andrea Vitels at all, would suddenly attack him after he released Neon and asked a fatal question that he could not give a perfect answer to.

Sure enough, even a considerate and gentle girl like Suzuki Ayako could not calmly accept the fact that her boyfriend was taken advantage of by someone else first.

"Well, Ayako, listen to me, I can explain."

Shaking his head in panic, under Suzuki Ayako's smiling gaze, Uozuka Saburo quickly repeated his previous reasons to her.

It's not that he doesn't have feelings for Suzuki Ayako, but because his side is too unstable, so he is a little cautious. Besides, Suzuki Ayako is a little young, so she is not suitable.

"Oh, but Uozuka-san and I are the same age, and we are adults this year~"

"..." Looking at Suzuki Ayako who was excitedly tapping her fingers in his arms as if thinking about something, Uozuka Saburo became even more flustered.

"Hehe, okay, let's talk about some other topics~"

Just when Uozuka Saburo didn't know how to change the subject, Suzuki Ayako, who seemed to have had enough of Uozuka Saburo's panicked expression and had expressed some resentment in her heart, finally took the initiative to give Uozuka Saburo a way out.

This made Uozuka Saburo breathe a sigh of relief without concealing it, and then he looked at Suzuki Ayako in distress, who was still sitting in his arms, smiling and looking particularly happy.

"Please forgive me, Mr. Uozuka, girls always have some temper~"

"How could I be angry with you, Ayako?" He nodded with a helpless look. Uozuka Saburo, who was already feeling guilty, certainly would not have any dissatisfaction. Rather, if this matter could make Suzuki Ayako calm down, Uozuka Saburo would be very happy.

The rest of the journey can be said to be very smooth.

No longer teasing Saburo Uozuka with Andrea Vitels's style clothes, Suzuki Ayako quickly selected the clothes she liked, asked the store manager to make some detailed changes according to her requirements and then sent them to the Suzuki residence. Then she took Saburo Uozuka away from the store.

After having a relatively simple lunch outside, Suzuki Ayako did not relax and went to do some fun activities with Uozuka Saburo.

On the contrary, Suzuki Ayako was busy processing the documents in her office throughout the afternoon.

In this regard, Saburo Uozuka, who learned from Tanaka Flag that the Suzuki Group had recently encountered troubles, was not surprised. Unable to bear to see Suzuki Ayako busy alone, Saburo Uozuka moved a stool and sat opposite the desk like an assistant, and integrated into Suzuki Ayako's work rhythm without much effort.

Although most of the work was done by Suzuki Ayako herself, judging from the happy and satisfied expression on her face after the work was completed, Suzuki Ayako really enjoyed working with Saburo Uozuka.

"Are we really not going back for dinner tonight? When we left this morning, that girl from Yuanzi kept asking me to play with her in the evening."

Staring eagerly at Suzuki Ayako who was sitting opposite him and ordering elegantly from the waiter, Uozuka Saburo, with his chin supported by one hand, spoke in a subtle tone after Suzuki Ayako finished ordering.

"Sonoko won't say you broke your promise, Mr. Uozuka~"

In the locker room of the office, Suzuki Ayako changed into a dress of her own style that perfectly complemented her temperament. She looked at Uozuka Saburo with a smile, holding her chin with both hands and showing a somewhat naive expression.

"I have already agreed with Sonoko that I will have dinner with you, Mr. Uozuka, outside tonight~ Because I also want to enjoy a dinner for two with Mr. Uozuka~"

She winked at Uozuka Saburo playfully. The expectation and love revealed in Suzuki Ayako's eyes at this moment made Uozuka Saburo unable to say anything to refuse.

Even so, since stepping into this restaurant, Uozuka Saburo has had an inexplicable subtle sense of vigilance.

"Is it because I haven't been back to Neon for so long that I'm not used to it?"

Such doubts flashed through his mind, but Uozuka Saburo did not show it. He just raised his glass and clinked it with Suzuki Ayako opposite him with a smile.

No matter what, the most important thing now is to spend time with Suzuki Ayako who has been busy all day. Nothing else matters.

What was beyond Uozuka Saburo's expectations was that, perhaps because they did not have enough fun on the island before, Suzuki Ayako happily drank more red wine than she usually could during their real dinner for two today.

Until the end, it was Saburo Uozuka who embraced the already intoxicated Suzuki Ayako and left the restaurant and came to a high-end high-rise apartment belonging to Suzuki Ayako.

In Suzuki Ayako's words, it was already too late and she had drunk so much alcohol, so she should not rush back to the Suzuki family's residence to avoid disturbing others.

Although he felt that it was not necessary, under Suzuki Ayako's drunken and coquettish behavior, Uozuka Saburo had no room for refusal. He cooperated and brought Suzuki Ayako to this apartment, which was not his first time to visit.

After gently placing Suzuki Ayako in her bedroom and helping her change into pajamas, Uozuka Saburo went to the guest room to find his own change of clothes. While feeling that today had been normal and uneventful, he simply took a shower.

When did this relaxed and happy mood disappear?

Looking at Suzuki Ayako who was leaning on the bed in his guest room with an opened bottle of red wine and a quilt in her hand, and who had come in at some point and was smiling at him under a thin quilt, Saburo Uozuka remained motionless as he pushed open the bathroom door.

He knew that tonight, he might be in trouble!

477: Unpleasant news

"So, you just escaped like this. I'm not saying anything bad about you, Uozuka, but you're really a coward."

Looking at Saburo Uozuka beside him with disdain, Kimura Takashi, who was dragged out from the organization by the other party, shook the wine glass in his hand, and his words were full of ridicule towards Saburo Uozuka.

"What do you mean by escaping? I stayed with Ayako for the entire morning, had lunch with her at noon, and sent her to the company before I left!"

Slapping the table in dissatisfaction, Uozuka Saburo expressed his strong disagreement with Kimura Takashi's statement!

Statements like this sound like a scumbag who takes all the blame and refuses to admit it!

"I was supposed to stay in the company to work with Ayako, but she didn't want me to stay there and kicked me out. I had to pick up Ayako and go back to Suzuki's house to have dinner together in the evening!"

"Yes, yes, isn't that great? You two have been struggling for several years, and now it's finally come to fruition. What else are you dissatisfied about?"

Taking out a cigarette and putting it in his mouth, Kimura Ying waved his hand lazily.

Regarding the affairs of Saburo Uozuka and Ayako Suzuki, Kimura Taka has never wanted to express any opinion.

After all, with Saburo Uozuka's level, it wouldn't be surprising to Kimura Takashi that he was controlled to any extent by Suzuki Ayako, the girl who even he found scary.

From the moment Saburo Uozuka told him on the Hawaiian islands that Ayako Suzuki and Andrea Vitels' vacations collided, Taka Kimura had already thought about what Ayako Suzuki would do.

Are you kidding? Could it be that the eldest daughter of the Suzuki family lacks the ability to take action and make decisions?

In the past, because there was no competition in this area, they were fooled by all the excuses of Uozuka Saburo. But now, Andrea Vitels has made a good start. If Suzuki Ayako doesn't follow up, Kimura Takashi will think there is a problem!

"You can't be nervous just because you have to formally meet your parents tonight, right? Come on, that's not your style, Uozuka Saburo. Besides, those two people from the Suzuki family have already considered you as their son-in-law."

"I can't say I'm not nervous at all. After all, we were just boyfriend and girlfriend before, but now... I think I'll feel guilty when I see Mr. Suzuki again." Scratching his hair, Saburo Uozuka said in a subtle tone, taking out a cigarette from his arms, lighting it and putting it in his mouth.

"I should call you uncle now. Mr. Suzuki, please be polite~"

"...Don't tease me about this." He glared at Kimura Taka with disdain, but after chatting with Kimura Taka for a few words, Uozuka Saburo's originally nervous mood was completely relaxed.

What Kimura Taka said was right. In fact, Uozuka Saburo did not feel too embarrassed if he faced Suzuki Shiro and Suzuki Tomoko again tonight.

After nearly three years of getting along and accompanying each other, he and Suzuki Ayako can be said to have come together naturally.

Although we were caught off guard by Suzuki Ayako's sudden attack last night, all actions after that were led by Uozuka Saburo.

Thinking of how Suzuki Ayako lay in his arms this morning, kissing him drowsily and saying good morning, Uozuka Saburo felt very happy in his heart.

"Well, I'm actually too lazy to get involved in this kind of thing, but you, Uozuka, should pay more attention to yourself."

After playing the banquet music and looking at Uozuka Saburo whose face was full of happiness, Kimura Ying curled his lips.

Although he is a non-marriage advocate and often goes to bars and high-end clubs to "hunt", why is he so unhappy when he looks at the current Uozuka Saburo?

"During this period of time, the organization seems to have begun investigating some groups within Neon. Although it may not be possible to infiltrate the Suzuki Group, a hierarchical organization, it is still worth paying attention to."

"But considering your status as a member of the Suzuki family, if the organization really wants to take action against the Suzuki family, Rum will not hide it from you."

"I'll pay attention to this aspect." He nodded slightly. Although it was Kimura Taka's attempt to change the subject, this was also an important reason why Uozuka Saburo sought out Kimura Taka in his free time this afternoon.

He wanted to use Kimura Takashi to quickly understand the organizational changes in Japan during the time he was away.

For this, neither Daimon Miyabi, whose identity is questionable, nor Miyano Akemi, who has been hovering on the periphery of the organization, can do it. Only Kimura Takashi, who is obviously trusted by Ram but secretly defected to Uozuka Saburo early on and holds an important position in the Japanese organization, can meet the requirements.

"What about other aspects?"

"As for other aspects, actually there haven't been too many changes internally. We're still in a latent state, and the overt actions have been reduced a lot. The policy is the same as what was formulated before you left. We disguise ourselves as a killer organization and contact those groups that want to profit through illegal means. While helping them solve their problems, we obtain evidence of their crimes, and then try to control and 'cooperate'~" He shrugged. As the deputy director of the intelligence department of the Neon Organization, Kimura Ying was very familiar with the operation of the organization.

"But when it comes to important matters, I think there is one thing that makes people suspicious."

"Oh, tell me about it!" His eyes lit up instantly, and looking at Kimura Takashi beside him, Uozuka Saburo became interested.

Although he always said that Kimura Taka's character and actions were problematic, Uozuka Saburo absolutely agreed with Kimura Taka's vision.

Otherwise, he would not have discovered the clues of Zhang Yi's escape from the organization.

"You know, Yuzuka, in the past two years, because of the purge that Rum started, many of our organization's facilities suffered a severe blow. For example, there are only two training bases left that are absolutely intact and in operation. Other facilities and personnel have suffered even greater blows. Until now, the organization has not fully recovered."

"I know this, and then what?" Raising his eyebrows, Kimura Takashi said the information that could be said to be known to all members of the organization, and it was not something that Uozuka Saburo cared about.

"For the past two years, every department in the organization has been understaffed. Uozuka, you are in the operations team and you should feel it more deeply."

"Although the training base is also providing fresh blood to the organization, to be honest, the people coming out of the training base are barely able to mechanically deal with tasks, and their flexibility is a headache." He tapped the table with his fingers in distress. It was not because Kimura Taka was loyal to the organization and couldn't bear to see the organization in trouble, but because if there were any problems with the guys in the action group, their intelligence department would have to work overtime too! !

"And just a few days ago, the FBI and the CIA went crazy and launched a massive purge of the organization's bases in Asia at all costs. This time the action came so quickly that Rum was not fully prepared." Kimura Takashi glanced to both sides and subconsciously wanted to confirm the situation, but was interrupted by Uozuka Saburo.

"I've checked everything around here, tell me your story!"

"Tsk, isn't the consequence obvious? Because Japan is the center of the organization in Asia, and there is a shortage of manpower in those places, of course we have to send people out to fill the gap. Then, we are short of manpower here again!"

“Well, this is a realistic answer.”

"Yes, and the situation is so serious now that even Rum's application to the organization in Magnesium for personnel transfer was not approved. As for the reason..." He looked at Uozuka Saburo subtly. The expression of 'you experience it slowly yourself' on Kimura Takashi's face made Uozuka Saburo stunned.

"Hey, Kimura, you're not going to say it's because of me, are you?"

"Otherwise, even if the style of the organization in Magnesium is a little more arrogant than in Japan, except for the last time when we were forced to do so after the 'Hancock John Incident', this is the first time that you, Uozuka, have caused such a big mess! You don't really think that the official investigation in Magnesium can't prove that the explosive incident was caused by our organization, right?"

"... Tsk, if they are really that powerful, why didn't they kill Hancock John earlier, so that I wouldn't have to suffer so much." He snorted in dissatisfaction, but Uozuka Saburo also fully understood what Kimura Takashi was going to say.

No wonder even at this point, Kurosawa Hotaru is still in Magnesium and unable to return with me.

The punishment mission is one thing, and on the other hand, the Magnesium Organization is also short of people!

No one really thinks that an organization like Uozuka Saburo has no shortage of talent, right?

On the contrary, they are eager for talents!

As long as you come to them, except for the fact that your personal freedom cannot be guaranteed, as long as you demonstrate value that is recognized by the organization, the organization will be able to meet all your requirements!

As for those who really made extraordinary demands on the organization, well, Saburo Uozuka can only say that those who treat the organization as a normal company to work for have some abnormalities in their brains.

"So, this time, even if Rum is unwilling, he can only continue to open the door and allow the organization to absorb new members from the outside world."

After taking a sip of wine, Uozuka Saburo, as a cadre of the organization, had worked under Rum for several years and had a sufficient understanding of his current direct superior.

"Yes, but that's the problem." Nodding in agreement, Kimura Takashi put the cigarette in the ashtray and pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose.

"Yuzhong, let me be frank with you. I don't care about recruiting talents, and I have no control over it. But who among us can guarantee the true identity of the talents we recruit? I can't do that, but can you, Yuzhong?"

"I can't either~" With his mouth wide open, Uozuka Saburo laughed happily.

"Yeah, I have no objection to undercover agents. You know me. If the undercover agent is really capable and can make the organization... ahem, I'll cheer with both hands." With a confused and stiff face, Kimura Ying took a big gulp of wine, his eyes full of a bad look.

"But to the undercover agents, I'm not a good person either! I don't trust them enough to be a so-called tainted witness. That's really ridiculous."

"Indeed, people like us have been immersed too deeply. How can we stand in front of everyone just by turning over?" He picked up the bottle and poured another glass of wine for Kimura Ying.

"But this matter has little to do with us. We have always been cautious in the organization anyway. Recruiting people is fine. Think about it from another perspective. If those undercovers want to obtain more useful intelligence, they must improve their rank and status in the organization. In this way, they will have to work hard, and our work will be much easier in the future."

"...That's true, but I think that the ones who can relax more are those in your action team. It's really hard for us in the intelligence department to recruit new people." He raised his wine glass distressedly and clinked it with Uozuka Saburo. After realizing it belatedly, Kimura Takashi looked at Uozuka Saburo with a wry smile.

"By the way, isn't it a bit bad for us to predict the bad news before the action is fully launched?"

"There's nothing wrong with it. We are telling the truth."

"That's true." Kimura Takashi nodded. He felt that he needed to change his future work ideas.
