250 Withered Flowers
In the basement, Gin said, taking a picture out of his pocket and throwing it onto the body on the operating table.
Unlike the male corpse in the photo, the photograph shows a typical Asian woman, who also looks very young and pretty, with no obvious features in her appearance.
"Strange, this person ......"
Looking at the woman in the photo, Mizuno and Amuro Toru both showed thoughtful expressions at the same time.
"When we first locked down Scotland's identity, we found three cadres who were suspected of being undercover." Vodka said suddenly.
When they locked down their Scottish identity, they narrowed down the suspected possible candidates to three cadres within the organization.
In order to find out the real undercover agent from these three people, Mizuno has come up with a very vicious plan.
That is, the information of several congressmen who were about to assassinate at that time was revealed to these three people, and if the assassination of any member of parliament went wrong, the cadre who was revealed to be the corresponding information must be an undercover agent.
With this plan, the organization pinpointed the identity of the Scottish Metropolitan Police Department's undercover agent, and finally Bourbon and Kiel dealt with him.
What? Why do vodkas, you ask, remember so clearly?
That's of course because he was the "idiot cadre" who was responsible for leaking the assassination information in the first place! How could he not remember?!
The remaining two of the three cadres were no longer suspected by the organization because there were no incidents when the organization assassinated their corresponding councillors.
One of them is the woman in this photo.
She was originally a member of the organization's intelligence group, and she was considered a relatively capable cadre in the intelligence group, and she remembered that she seemed to have a good relationship with Scotland, and she remembered that the two had been on missions together many times before.
After the Scottish incident, although she was cleared of suspicion, she was also transferred to the action team by Gin out of prudence, and then she has been in charge of some less important organizational tasks, which belongs to the kind with a relatively low sense of existence.
"Didn't you expect the undercover agent to be her?" Shui Wuren was a little surprised.
"And it's a man dressed as a woman...... It's amazing, it turns out that we caught two big fish in the first place? Amuro smiled, still in the same frivolous tone.
He raised his hand to support his forehead, shook his head and sighed, as if to express his regret that he had not been able to arrest both undercover agents in the first place.
ãâĻâĻ I'm sorry]
"It turned out to be in BFIP...... This would explain why the FBI people were so quick to see through our plan when dealing with Scotland. Shui Wuren glanced at Amuro and spoke.
Because this undercover agent was in the intelligence group at the time, and in that incident, the operations of the intelligence group were already quite frequent, and Mizuno and Amuro Toru even secretly investigated the members of the intelligence group.
This series of actions must have aroused the undercover agent's alarm at that time, coupled with the fact that he and Scotland are highly likely to know each other's identities.
That's why he reacted quickly after Vodka "accidentally" revealed to him the information about the assassination of the congressman, detected the trap set by the organization from the clues, and even tried to let his FBI agent colleague rescue Scotland.
Is it hiding here?
After everyone had seen the photo, Gin spoke again:
"Looks like you all have some impression of this guy?"
"Not familiar."
Except for Cohen, who was still confused, the rest of the people simply replied, and it seemed that no one wanted to say much, and the basement fell silent for a while.
"Big Brother ......"
But soon, Vodka broke the silence, his gaze under his small sunglasses flickering back and forth between the photograph and the man's corpse, and he thought about it in a rare way.
"I think there's something strange about this guy."
Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look at him, and in the face of everyone's gaze, Vodka frowned, and said in a tone that was not very affirmative:
"He gave me a feeling of 'abrupt stops'......"
"Like you appeared out of nowhere, and then died suddenly?" Instantly realizing the meaning of the vodka's words, Mizumi took his words.
It's like a character who is supposed to have a long story, but suddenly leaves the scene in the middle of his script, causing his whole story to come to an abrupt end.
"That's right." Vodka nodded repeatedly.
"Why are you talking like this all of a sudden?" Amuro looked at the two helplessly.
"Oh, yes too......"
Dispelling this strange thought in his mind, Shui Wuren chuckled lightly and said:
"To be dead is to be dead, no matter what kind of story you have, you have to live to continue, and if you die, there will be nothing left......"
Her words were meaningful, and Amuro subconsciously looked at her more.
"Did it stop abruptly?"
Gin listened to the conversation between Mizuno and Vodka and smiled coldly.
"All mysteries are just to hide the truest secrets."
As he spoke, he reached for a ring from his pocket.
This is a small silver ring, the overall production is very ordinary, there is nothing special, if you have to say, the carved shape on it is slightly unique.
"Where did this ring come from?" Amuro asked curiously.
"It was found from this corpse." Vodka replied, "When we fished him up, he didn't have anything on him to identify himself, only the ring was found in his pocket." â
"It's not on your fingers, it's in your pocket...... Gin, do you wonder what special meaning this ring might have? Amuro understood the meaning of gin.
"There's something really special about the carving of this ring."
It was Mizuno who spoke, and she took the silver ring from Gin's hand and looked at it carefully.
Different from the general ring carving on the market, this ring has many layers of carving, although the petals are also engraved very large and beautiful, but the flower bones are dotted with dense stamens.
Mizuno recognized the variety of this carved flower, it was not a random carving.
It stands to reason that it doesn't usually appear on rings.
"What do you mean?" Amuro looked at her curiously.
"This carved flower on the ring is a Tumi flower."
"Tea Blossom?"
Several men in the basement didn't seem to know much about flowers, grass, or anything, and looking at the confused and curious eyes of several people, Shui Wunan sighed and explained:
"This is a traditional Chinese flower, and unlike most flowers, the flower does not bloom until midsummer, so this special flowering period also gives it a special name......
"Withered Flowers."
A voice suddenly sounded, and when everyone heard this, their faces showed varying degrees of surprise.
Regel?!
Amuro hurriedly turned around, only to see a man dressed as a reporter enter the basement at some point, followed by a mysterious person wrapped in black clothes who couldn't distinguish his appearance and size, it should be Buluo Ouxin.
"Regal, you're late again." Looking at him, Gin reminded coldly.
"I'm sorry, Xiaoqin, it's a little late, I thought you wouldn't be able to catch anyone tonight...... It's far away, and now it's a matter of course. â
Bai Heqing smiled unapologetically, then walked straight to everyone's side, reached out and took the ring in Shui Wulianna's hand, and held it up to look at it in the light.
"But it's really interesting to find this kind of ring with a special meaning on the body of a dead person.
You say, what exactly is this vital information? Or is it a deadly trap left for us? Guess what? â
