Gin likes me?

Shaking his head, Saburo Uozuka, who had originally wanted to cover up the matter, stood up and took his jacket from Suzuki Ayako.

"Let's go."

"Ok!"

The rest of the journey went so smoothly that Uozuka Saburo felt strange. He felt that there must be someone following him, but that person showed no intention of showing up.

Since the other party did not show up, Uozuka Saburo was too lazy to cause trouble for the other party. He quickened his pace and took Suzuki Ayako with him. At about noon, they finally walked out of the forest and came to a mountain road.

They walked in silence for about twenty minutes before Uozuka Saburo stopped when he spotted a gas station with a convenience store ahead.

"Go ahead and contact your parents, then you can go home."

Pointing at the gas station ahead, Uozuka Saburo spoke to Suzuki Ayako who was lowering her head behind him.

Looking at Suzuki Ayako who was silent and trembling slightly, Uozuka Saburo felt that he could understand her feelings.

After going through so many upsetting things in just three days, she is now finally able to return to her safe home. She must be so happy that she is speechless.

"Um, Mr. Uozuka."

"Hmm?" His eyebrows wrinkled slightly. To be honest, Uozuka Saburo regretted telling Suzuki Ayako his real name on impulse.

But later on, when I thought about it carefully, it seemed that it wouldn't matter if I told the other party my real name. Anyway, I didn't have any formal identification in society, and I wouldn't take any actions in society under the identity of Uozuka Saburo, so it didn't matter.

"Can I, leave your contact information?" Slowly raising her head, Suzuki Ayako looked at him with a look that Uozuka Saburo could not understand.

"I'm a killer, why would you leave my contact information?" Shaking his head in amusement, Uozuka Saburo felt that this girl was too naive.

"Then, can I see your face?" An undisguised look of disappointment flashed across Suzuki Ayako's face, but Suzuki Ayako did not give up, but continued to ask.

"Forget it, I think we will never meet again." Shaking his head slightly, Saburo Uozuka felt that there was no need for him to reveal anything in front of Suzuki Ayako.

He had never intended to get too close to the girl as Vodka had said, and after spending a night with the girl, he felt that this girl, who was firm, gentle but not weak, should live in a brighter place.

"Be more careful when you go out next time, and don't be stupid enough to get caught again." Looking at the skirt that became a little torn due to walking in the mountains and forests, Uozuka Saburo took off his jacket and handed it to Suzuki Ayako so that she could cover her legs.

"See you later, Miss Suzuki."

Looking at Uozuka Saburo's resolute back, Suzuki Ayako opened her mouth but said nothing, but held Uozuka Saburo's jacket tighter and tighter.

Finally, when Uozuka Saburo's figure was about to completely disappear in the forest, Suzuki Ayako could no longer hold back and shouted out for the first time in such a sharp and bright voice.

"I will never forget you, Mr. Uozuka Saburo!"

. . .

"You won't forget me. It's really scary."

He shook his head and hid in the woods opposite the gas station. He watched with his own eyes as cars quickly came to the gas station, and then a couple got out and a little girl cried and hugged Suzuki Ayako in her arms. Only then did Uozuka Saburo move and walk back into the woods.

Now that this matter has been resolved, there is another matter that needs to be dealt with by myself.

"That disgusting guy who has been following behind me but never comes out, I want to see what kind of ghost you are!"

Cursing under his breath, Uozuka Saburo raised his vigilance to the highest level, using the combat knowledge he had learned to keep approaching the dangerous position.

However, when he held his breath, did a tactical roll, rushed over the slope and pointed his gun at the enemy behind the slope, his eyes almost popped out.

"Ha! Why are you here?!"

067: This damn guy!!

"Not bad, not bad. Your anti-reconnaissance awareness is pretty good, your shooting accuracy is also so-so, and your basic qualities in jungle combat are also relatively solid. It seems that you have indeed learned well in the training base."

Smiling at Saburo Uozuka who was pointing a gun at him, Vodka put the rifle behind his back, leisurely lit a cigarette, and held it in his mouth without caring that he was in the jungle.

"How is it? I, your master, must have put a lot of pressure on you from behind, right? I noticed it at the time. Your expression was quite scary~"

"Do you really have nothing to do in Neon? Are you so idle?"

Looking at Vodka angrily, Uozuka Saburo really didn't expect that the 'fierce gunman' who chased him all night and made him and Suzuki Ayako flee in the mountains and forests in a desperate situation was actually his master.

"Why are you doing this, Master?"

He put the rifle behind his back and looked at Vodka with confusion.

"Are you worried that I can't handle the assassination mission of Yoshikawa Society by myself?"

"Of course not. It's just an ordinary club in Tokyo. It's nothing for me to worry about."

Smiling and waving his hand, Vodka took out a pack of compressed biscuits from his combat bag and threw it to Uozuka Saburo.

"If you can't even handle them, I'll have to think about whether I should let you continue to be my student."

"So what are you doing here? Simply want to test my jungle combat abilities?"

He tore open the compressed biscuit without hesitation. The energy bar he had eaten in the first half of the night had long been digested by Uozuka Saburo, and he was now extremely hungry.

"On the one hand, but more importantly, I have to fulfill my responsibilities as a master."

Looking at Saburo Uozuka who was eating compressed biscuits in big mouthfuls, Vodka smiled and took out a bottle of water and handed it to him.

"Responsibility?" The voice was a little unclear. With his mouth full of compressed biscuits, Saburo Uozuka raised his head and looked at the vodka in front of him with suspicion.

Uozuka Saburo is completely convinced of the abilities of his cheap master. Not to mention himself, even the omnipotent big sister Kurosawa Hotaru, who is in Uozuka Saburo's heart, is no match for Vodka now.

It’s just that, despite being a very capable colleague, this man also has an extremely bad personality.

Saburo Uozuka has felt more than once how much Vodka likes to play tricks on his students as long as it does not affect the mission.

And they always say it's for their own good!

"Yes, there is an old saying in the East that a teacher is a father for life. Although we have not been master and apprentice for a long time, I think we are destined to be in sync~"

"Heh." Looking indifferently at Vodka who still had a smirk on his face, Uozuka Saburo treated Vodka's words as nonsense.

"As your master and half-father, I should always consider your major life events. After all, you are not a child anymore."

"Ok?"

After unscrewing the bottle cap, Saburo Uozuka used cold mineral water to suppress the dryness of the compressed biscuits in his mouth.

He didn't quite understand what Vodka was doing.

A major event in your own life?

Is there anything important in your life that you need his help with?

"You don't seem to be interested in that police girl named Chisuga Hagiwara. How about Suzuki Ayako this time?" Vodka became more and more excited as he spoke, looking at the stunned Uozuka Saburo with shining eyes.

"I've checked. This girl has a very good reputation in school and among people she knows. Although she is the eldest daughter of a large group, she has a very gentle and kind personality. She has her own opinions but is not stubborn. She is good at listening to other people's opinions, and she is always very sincere to the people she cares about."

"The growth of the Suzuki Group she works for has been terrifying in the past few years. At present, they can be seen in all walks of life. In my opinion, within ten years, the Suzuki Group will become a giant among the many financial groups in Japan. Wouldn't you be tempted by the eldest daughter of such a group, Saburo?"

"what?"

"The most important thing is that this girl has a really good figure! Although she is only 18 years old, her measurements are already..."

"master!"

"..." The teasing words stopped, and Vodka half-closed his eyes and looked at Uozuka Saburo who was standing straight in front of him and looking at him with a righteous face.

"Really not moved at all?"

"I know what you are thinking, Master. Indeed, if I can establish a good relationship with someone of this level, it will be of great help to my future actions."

Slowly screwing the bottle cap on, Uozuka Saburo looked at the vodka with a determined gaze, not caring at all that what he was about to say might make the elite liquor managers in this organization feel uncomfortable.

"Before, it was Chisuga Hagiwara, and this time it was Suzuki Ayako. I am very grateful to you, Master, for your efforts in facilitating the connection between us."

"But! I also have my own judgment and thoughts on this point."

His eyes were burning, without the slightest dodging. Uozuka Saburo had never been so frank and straightforward in front of Vodka.

"I will complete my mission with all my ability. If I fail to complete it and encounter danger, it can only mean that this is my fate."

"We should live our own lives and not drag her into this world!"

"...Huh~" His half-closed eyes flickered slightly and a puff of smoke came out of his mouth. Under the somewhat stiff expression of Uozuka Saburo, Vodka laughed instead.

"It seems that you are attracted to this girl, Sanlang."

"I... didn't!" His words were a little awkward, but Uozuka Saburo still retorted stubbornly.

"Okay, stop playing such petty tricks in front of me." His eyes turned funny, and Vodka reached out and pulled a bug from Uozuka Saburo's tactical belt in the shocked look of Uozuka Saburo.

"I always keep my word, you don't need to worry!" Vodka pretended to be serious when he said this, which made Uozuka Saburo's expression suddenly change. The mockery on Vodka's face could no longer be described in words.

"Tsk tsk, Sanlang, I didn't expect that you, with your thick eyebrows and big eyes, could say something that would touch a little girl's heart like this."

"Don't even mention an 18-year-old girl. In that situation, even if it were me, my heart would be moved for you!~"

"No! Don't say it, Master!" Looking at Vodka pleadingly, Saburo Uozuka's attitude completely softened.

God, how could he know that this damn guy would be so shameless as to place a bug on himself!

"By the way, Sanlang, after holding her for a whole night, do you feel that the girl's body is soft?~"

"I have no idea!"

"I will never forget you, Mr. Uozuka Saburo~"

"Ahhh! I'm going to fight you, go to hell!!"

068: I swear!

"Wow, Sanlang, you really are ruthless!"

Rubbing his nose, Vodka looked at Uozuka Saburo, who was squatting in front of him and panting, with a helpless look on his face.

Although it was obvious how unyielding and stubborn this boy was when he competed with Uozuka Saburo in the gym, it was only after the real fight that Vodka understood the reason for the evaluation given by the organization's number one training base that "his physical fitness has been the best among everyone since the establishment of this base."

Is this guy really not a bear but a human? His body is too tough!

"It's the same as if you were at a disadvantage."

His body was a little stiff and painful, the corners of his mouth were scratched, and the corners of his eyes were a little swollen. No matter how you looked at it, it was Uozuka Saburo who was more seriously injured, but he laughed.

It’s so enjoyable!

As long as he looked up and saw Vodka's black and blue left eye, Uozuka Saburo felt that all the depression in his heart was released!

Although he was at a greater disadvantage, he still seized the opportunity in the previous fight and successfully punched Vodka in the face!

Perfect! Uozuka Saburo felt that he had already achieved perfection!

"I guess in another five years, I won't be your opponent in a fight like this."

Vodka smiled and shook his head, not angry at all, and rubbed the painful parts of his body.

Although Uozuka Saburo had attacked suddenly before, both sides had tacitly understood each other and were fighting in the form of a sparring. On the one hand, Uozuka Saburo wanted to see how strong Vodka was in close combat besides being better than him in shooting and tracking, and on the other hand, he also wanted to vent the embarrassment of being teased and teased.

As for Vodka, he was just accompanying his disciple for some fun.

Well, although the price of this game is a bit high.

"Oh, it won't take five years, you won't be able to do it in three years." With a snorted of pretended disdain, Uozuka Saburo, who already knew very well that he was no match for Vodka, was neither convinced nor convinced in his heart.

Although I am not his opponent now, I will have a bright future in the future!

"I just like your character of never giving in to anything." With his mouth slightly opened, Vodka laughed happily, causing Saburo Uozuka on the side to frown in surprise.

"Well, we two, master and disciple, should stop hiding things." Vodka relit a cigarette and threw the cigarette box and lighter to Uozuka Saburo.

"I'm really optimistic about that little girl."

"She looks weak, but she has a strong determination and awareness. She doesn't want to be a burden to others even at the critical moment of life and death. Such a girl is really too dazzling for people like us."

"..." Saburo Uozuka lit the cigarette silently without saying anything more.

What Vodka said was actually correct. The reason why Uozuka Saburo didn't want to have any more contact with Suzuki Ayako was because after seeing Suzuki Ayako's character and personality, he didn't want her to have any contact with himself as a member of a dangerous organization.

They are two different kinds of people and live in different places.

This is not to say that Saburo Uozuka fell in love with Suzuki Ayako after just one night of spending time together, but he was indeed touched by this girl who let him leave alone with a smile on her face.

"Well, but our Saburo is not bad either." Vodka smiled and patted Saburo Uozuka on the shoulder. Seeing that Saburo Uozuka didn't say anything, Vodka was not surprised.

"I really didn't expect that you would say those words to me so seriously. Really, you have no idea how surprised I am." Holding his arm around Uozuka Saburo's shoulders, Vodka exhaled smoke and his voice became a little ethereal.

"Although it sounds very touching, don't let anyone else in the organization know about this except me."

"...Master, are you really a cadre in the organization?"
