“Joker！”

“Leader！”

"No, he doesn't look like he can hear. What happened suddenly? ”

"Maybe it's a recurrence, I told you, Lunar."

"Flashbacks? Or a sudden emotional breakdown......"

Soon, a few pairs of hands caught Tang Ze, who was lying down, trying to regain his attention.

And the sounds of these conversations, with their distant, hollow echoes, surround the noisy sound in Tang Ze's ears, so ethereal that they seem to be impossible to touch.

His attention was still fixed on the sounds that seemed to be auditory hallucinations, and like some clear replay, trying to discern the source of each sound, and the uncontrollable anguish slowly infected all his sanity, causing him a splitting headache.

The familiar feeling of anxiety and over-breathing came over him, but even if his mood fluctuated violently, no matter how much chaotic movement tried to break his reason, Tang Ze still managed to maintain his consciousness, and did not waver in the slightest with these disturbing information.

It's about his secrets, the secrets of this world, about a lot of plausible truths, and he has to hold on, he has to grasp the point......

As he tried, the messy voice became smaller and smaller, the divided emotions gradually dissociated, and a scene gradually became clear in front of his eyes.

"Look what I find." The silver-haired man bent down, looked at the child who was trampled on the ground by himself, and cruelly hooked the corners of his mouth, "A fledgling that has not yet grown all its feathers, but thinks it can escape with its treasure." ”

————

"Cognitive? Of course I've heard of it, isn't that what you want Kumel and me to bring back from Tang Zezhao? Sorting out the cardboard box in his hand, Amuro adjusted his headphones and replied casually, "What, is there anything that needs to be investigated?" I thought you'd be more than happy to talk to Kumel about these topics. ”

"Hmph." On the other side of the headphones, Gin's distorted sneer came, "If I can, I don't want to find you either." ”

"Oh? Sounds like something, a task that only I can do. Amuro blinked, without a pause as he moved toward the foam box to fill the drink, "Tell me about it." ”

"You don't need to know that much, and you're not qualified to know. Arrive at the address sent to you within three hours, receive the injection, and the rest is none of your business. Gin was rarely not irritated by his contemptuous tone, and just finished the request in a straightforward manner.

Received the injection, and after asking him how much he knew about cognitive science.

The muscles on Amuro's back slowly tensed, but the words he said only brought a little dissatisfaction: "Hey, it's rude to suddenly ask me to get a needle and not tell me what it is." I thought I was past the stage where I had to get two injections of truth every now and then. ”

"Since you dare to let out big words to climb up, this is the link that can't be avoided. What, Bourbon," Gin leaned back, hiding his eyes in the shadows at the top of the windshield, revealing a cruel smile at the corners of his mouth, "Are you scared?" ”

“…… So, is it Belmode that mentioned the so-called 'test that must be accepted for promotion'? Amuro stroked his hair, the expression on his face was already quite serious, but the tone of his voice was still full of smiles, "You can say it directly." Or is it that the fact that I'm about to go higher makes you so unhappy? ”

"Huh." Gin sneered disdainfully at his provocation, and didn't bother to talk to this guy who was in the limelight lately, and he just pressed and hung up.

The distribution of power and the arrangement of resources in the organization, to be honest, have little to do with him, and those are all practices that the adult personally handles.

Whether it is Rum, who is not greedy enough and plays some unruly tricks all day long, or Bourbon, who is eyeing him and rushing to the forefront with his personal ability, no matter which of the two of them can have the last laugh, it depends on what the adult thinks.

This is not a seniority company, an organization, a glacier dormant in the huge Black Sea, who can go to the heights, it is all in the mind of the adult, those tricks to compete for power and profit, are insignificant.

Sitting in the co-pilot, he didn't dare to squeak, and listened to Gin dial out several vodka to arrange work, and only then did he finally catch his breath.

He thought about it, picked a question that didn't involve core secrets, and asked compromisedly: "Big brother, is it really possible for Bourbon to take Rum's place?" ”

Although they are far from Rum's system, and no matter how they change their personnel, it is still worth worrying that if the person in charge of intelligence really changes from Rum, a related person who has been transferred from Rum, to a new generation with tough wrists, it is very likely to become a new destabilizing factor.

"Who knows, it's not about us." Picking up a cigarette, Gin took out the lighter, looked at the silver metal object in his hand, and commented coldly, "If Bourbon really did something right, the only way to say that Bourbon was to firmly control the matter itself." ”

In an organization, being the head of intelligence means that you have to keep secrets in every way.

A person who can dig up confidential waste by other means is not qualified to be a think tank of the organization.

That's why Kummel is different, he's a better candidate than Curacao, and he's able to hold on to his loyalty, and by any means, he'll be able to take on about ten of Rum's men.

“…… It seems that the adult still believes that the cognitive world does exist. Vodka heard the subtext of Gin, and knew very well how Rum had taken over the power of his father, so he couldn't help but whisper.

"Be careful, don't talk about what the Lord thinks." Gin lit the cigarette in his mouth, and didn't give the vodka a trace of attention, but it made the other party shudder.

Knowing the world, of course, exists.

It's a pity that some opportunities are fleeting, and they failed to seize the tail of the opportunity 8 years ago, and now they are destined to be difficult to reverse the theory that has almost reached the occult field.

Exhaling a puff of smoke and watching the gray-white particles spread out in the afternoon sun, Gin hooked the corners of his mouth.

But it doesn't matter, the last thing that the adult lacks is time.

————

"Is it really okay?" Akemi Miyano reached out and touched Tang Ze's still slightly wet cheeks, and said worriedly, "Now that you have figured out the route, there are still more opportunities to investigate, don't force yourself." ”

"It's really fine." Taking a deep breath, Tang Ze broke free from the support of several teammates, "I just, I was affected by the sudden auditory hallucinations. Did it scare you? ”

"Joker, I haven't heard you mention any signs of your recent relapse." Hoshikawa Hui frowned, and maintained his observation of Tang Ze's state with distrust, "Is it because you've been too tired lately, or has the experience on American Island caused you stress?" ”

"It's okay anymore, I figured out where the pressure was coming from. Rest assured, I'll tune in on my own. Tang Ze shook his head, looked around at the countless objects that symbolized time, and let out a long breath.

Again and again hallucinations and dreams, again and again superfluous emotions, he could no longer deceive himself.

- Perhaps, at this time, he is already a raider for two weeks.

In other words, the save he inherited was not exactly what he thought, and the save of the game he brought from that world also included some of the things he left behind from the "last week".

This may be the reason why Leon is so secretive and can tell himself with such certainty that he exists as a referee as an "archive".

And just like the previous test results, who will be the person who has the ability to "delete part of Tang Ze's memory"?

Tang Ze himself!

"Really, either you will leave all the memories, or you will delete the memories a little bit, if you want to delete them or not, you can't understand it, and you don't have the energy to squeeze toothpaste here all day long......"

"What did you just say?"

"Nothing. I just don't think it looks like the bottom of the subway where we want to go. Tang Ze, who had fully recovered, naturally looked at his teammates who were still trying to bump around, "Anyway, Ark, since you've walked in, you should be able to sense the situation on the map, right?" ”

"Well, the record is done. There was no sign of any hostile creatures, and it looked like an empty room. Noah silently scanned his surroundings with glowing green eyes, nodding in conviction.

"If you don't understand the research, you can talk about it slowly, and there are many things that you can't understand in cognitive studies. Today, we have walked so far in one breath, and everyone has worked very hard, so let's go back first? Tang Ze nodded and made a decision.

It seems that Tang Ze really needs to take a break.

The others silently exchanged glances, naturally no objections.

After the last detour to inspect the empty room, several people stood back in the elevator car where they came, waiting for Tang Ze, who had the authority, to come in and operate the button.

At the last moment of entering the elevator, a final auditory hallucination, like a small sigh, crossed Tang Ze's ears.

"Lilith, you say, did I make a big mistake from the beginning?"

The reflection of the past, once again, passed over him.

Tang Ze's footsteps paused imperceptibly, and he walked straight into the elevator without looking back.

No matter what happened, since you have chosen to pull back and choose to reopen, it means that you have experienced irreparable losses and regrets.

Then the frustration of the loser, don't take it out to annoy people.

Be quiet.

"A cherry blossom viewing party jointly organized by the Rice Flower Shop? Is it time to enjoy the cherry blossoms? ”

"Yes, Tang Ze, you may not know that you have been here for a long time, but the merchants here often entertain neighbors and regular customers to go out to enjoy the cherry blossoms. This is not only for promotion and bonding, but also a good advertising opportunity. Azusa Enomoto happily put the delivery plate in the box, "Each store will bring some of its own products, and we will all go there, it's very lively." ”

"Tomorrow?" Tang Ze glanced at Toru Amuro, who was sitting by the bar, and naturally sat down beside him, "Then count me in." ”

"Uh-huh! That's it! ”

Enomoto Azusa nodded excitedly, turned her head to prepare other things that were convenient to carry, and Tang Ze saw her return to the back kitchen, and reached over to glance at Amuro's arm that had been staring.

It was a spot of blood caused by the injection needle, which was not obvious to his wheat complexion, but it was very eye-catching to look at.

"Mr. Amuro, although Belmode says that this injection is not dangerous, it is still too risky." Very disapproving, Tang Ze frowned, "With the current research strength of the organization in medicine, it is too simple for them to do it. ”

"It's okay, I don't feel anything." Amuro put down his rolled up cuffs and said in a very firm tone, "I have also taken some antidote drugs in advance, so the risk is not great." ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Tang Ze's face, picked up the coffee in his hand, and swallowed the rest of the words together.

It should be said that this is also one of the reasons why he did not directly handcuff people away after confirming Tang Ze's identity.

With the help of the information that Karasawa kept sharing, Kyosuke Kado, and the research results left by the relevant chains, he was not at a loss in the face of possible drug control methods for the organization.

No matter what kind of plan Tang Ze wants to use each identity to do, he is sparing no effort to support them, and as a beneficiary, he has no position to accuse him of concealment.

Although he is still provocative, it is also true that Joker has reached a cooperation with them at the level of facts.

"Even if that's ......," Tang Ze shook his head helplessly, "that's a very risky move." I was shocked to see you message what you were going to do. ”

If it weren't for the fact that Amuro's blood bar was fine after he ordered the team, and there were no strange debuffs, Tang Ze wouldn't be sitting here now, talking so calmly, he should have been thinking about how to knock him out and drag him to 2-chome, and give Gray Yuan to mourn them to see the situation.

In more serious cases, he will simply consider taking the person directly to the cognitive world, trying to transfer the debuff, or simply killing and resurrecting to try to refresh the state.

Matter is a priority, if there is really any situation that endangers the life of Coop, even if it is to abandon this layer of real identity, Tang Ze will not hesitate to do it, not to mention the awkwardness of holding the vest so much.

The big deal is that the society dies, and it's not a big problem.

"Who knows, just observe and observe." Amuro shook the coffee cup in his hand, watched the collapsed latte art on his face slowly lose its shape, and calmly said, "Even if there is any danger, we should do what we need to do, and this is the meaning of our existence." ”

Gin personally stared at him to receive the injection, and without being sure that he could deceive the other party, the only way he could choose was to receive the injection.

Even if it is really the organization that has doubts about his identity, as long as it has not come to the moment of exposure, it is his greatest duty to play his current role perfectly, and there is no room for any doubts and retreats.

A person who is not firm enough will be excluded from the undercover mission in the screening stage, and the undercover agents who can go down in the criminal organization can only rely on their own inner strength.

And the valley is zero, it is precisely because there is no lack of these that we can get to today.

Tang Ze poured himself a cup of coffee, looked at the warm mist rising from the coffee, and sighed silently.

In fact, what the organization is doing, he probably has some ideas.

It was because of this speculation that he wanted to sigh so badly.

According to Gin's statement to Amuro, this so-called procedure is an effective means to "ensure that members who have access to core secrets are able to keep secrets."

While the fact that the organization can keep secrets may sound like a joke in itself, the mention of the issue will cause the casserole-sized fist of the Giant Gin to replay in front of your eyes.

The case has been solved, and it seems that Gin is really a mechanism that every core member of the organization has, and it belongs to the Sentinel that will send you a Sentinel as long as you are ready to touch the real secret.

I really should let this kind of flowery bastard go to the world to see what the hell he has made!

And really, isn't your organization only the gin that can be used, and it's really just working overtime all year round, right?

In other words, how did this indescribable God-bound design come about? Could it be that a tube of gin's blood was drawn and the serum was extracted to give to others? Is it so magical?

So now that tube of his own serum is useful for Amuro, can it block the effect of that potion?

He still likes the movie theater in the valley very much, and when he goes back, it's like going home, and he really doesn't want to see any strange gin there!

"Don't talk about me, you look at yourself first." Amuro squinted his eyes and looked at Tang Ze faintly, "The movement you made last time was not small, and this time it is even more intensified...... If we hadn't cleared the traces of your situation after landing on the island, you might have been directly held accountable this time. ”

Although he didn't realize that this island was actually related to the organization before Tang Ze set off, anyway, when Kazami Yuya, who was full of predictability, came to him with the photos taken by tourists of Tang Ze hanging in the waterfall, his blood pressure still rushed up all of a sudden.

If there is any harm in discovering Tang Ze's other identity, it is that the workload of wiping their butts has increased again.

As long as Tang Ze stayed on the island, the members of Team Zero stayed in the office, dealing with the media and information everywhere, and they were busy like a public relations team covering up scandals for celebrities.

"I don't think you'd better travel casually." The final word, Toru Amuro said, "I should inform Kazami, you can't just let you take the application and use it yourself." ”

"Huh? Don't, I'm just-"

"Protests are ineffective."

"Mr. Amuro, don't go, Mr. Amuro, I was wrong, I will be safe next time, Mr. Amuro-"
