Chapter Seventy-Three
Kawashima Ezaki said that he was going to inquire about the situation, but his body was very honest and he had been at home for a long time.
After he finished taking a shower, the two of them sat on the sofa and rested their heads on a meal. Zero was lazy today and didn't want to cook, but they chose an old restaurant that has been passed down for generations, and it tasted good.
I saw the hour hand approaching the three position little by little.
It would be rude to delay any longer, so the black-haired young man took out his mobile phone and called G.
"Toot toot."
Gin didn't know what he was doing, and the phone didn't connect.
Kawashima pressed the redial and pulled his slippers to the refrigerator to get ice water.
"Do you want to drink?"
He stood in front of the refrigerator in a relaxed posture, holding the phone in one hand, and raising the other hand to his waist and abdomen, his fingers hanging down naturally, buttoning the raised ring on the top of the can.
The fingertips were stained with condensation from the outside of the cold tank, and because of gravity, it took on a blood-loss, fragile cyan.
And the object of his questioning-
Zero was sitting cross-legged on the carpet in front of the coffee table, reporting on his actions on the computer. This is something to be handed over to Rum, after all, he is following Rum's instructions to keep an eye on Mori Kogoro.
"Thank you, teacher, but I don't want to drink it now~"
Zero lifts his gaze from the computer screen.
Kawashima nodded, snapped, opened the can with one hand, and took a sip of the cold liquid.
It only took a few seconds for them to talk, and when Kawashima Ezaki closed the refrigerator door, the redial phone was finally connected.
There was a slight amount of music and vocals coming from across the phone.
"Something?"
Gin's unique deep voice has been cut down by electronic devices and is not much inferior.
Kawashima Esaki walked to the window.
His raven-colored eyes were from top to bottom, and the void shrouded the scenery outside.
There are students in school uniforms on the sidewalks, office workers in suits and leather shoes, and middle-aged people who are finally able to change into light clothes and take their parents and children out to eat and shop on the sidewalk.
Students gather in groups, children clutch colorful balloons, bounce around their parents, and passers-by smile with relief and relief even if they are in a hurry.
As a villain, Kawashima feels that this should be the life of ordinary people.
Orderly, plain but warm.
Zero Valley, Ichiro Tokita, and Twilight Thirteen and all the police officers who love this job from the bottom of their hearts, desperately want to protect, probably because of this blandness and warmth.
The corners of Kawashima Ezaki's mouth are slightly hooked, and he looks very frivolous.
"Why, can't I call you if it's okay?"
"I haven't had a mission lately, so I shouldn't be guilty of breaking the law if I'm a little concerned about my superior's vacation life, right? Hmm, or am I interrupting your appointment? โ
I'm busy messing around with the action report, which is a mixed bag, so I can't see that Rum can't see the problem, and I can't stop and eavesdrop with bated breath: ............
What's going on with a little green head (
Gin, as the most temperamental cadre of the black-clad organization, has probably never been treated with such a prodigal tone. He doesn't know if the new member has a brain problem and others avoid him, but he is so bored that he takes the initiative to find him and asks some meaningless.
"It's okay, I'm hanging."
The system has become the host's puppy legs, and his face is depressed: Phew, a stinky man with no interest.
Kawashima Ezaki still had to inquire about Belmode, how could he let him hang up the phone, and said in time, "No kidding, there is something to find you." โ
Gin put down the glass.
The crisp pale orange liquor reflects the light on the bar's ceiling.
"Say."
"I can't tell you on the phone, I'll go and tell you face to face."
After thinking about it, Gin did not refuse.
"Roppongi ichichome, devil bar."
"Okay, right away."
Before the voice fell, the phone was hung up with a snap.
Kawashima: "............"
Kawashima Esaki thinks he shouldn't be annoying, right? He wouldn't be annoying to do anything with this face, would he??? So being forced to hang up the phone can't wait must be the other party's problem.
It's not easy to make money, the teacher sighed.
When will I be able to have an emotionally stable superior?
Kawashima Ezaki sorted out his clothes and prepared to go out, feeling that his back was hot, and he was about to be pierced two holes by someone with a strong sense of presence.
Look back.
Zero was staring at him with the eyes of her unchaste husband.
"How?"
Blonde student aggrieved: "The teacher didn't care about my vacation life......"
Kawashima Esaki: ???
Nonsense, when did you kid take a vacation?
Even if he wants to care, is there a chance?
The black-haired young man picked up the information on the coffee table, rolled it into a tube and slapped the student's head, "Eat less idle vinegar, you should know best what my relationship with gin is, right?" Troublesome people will lower my favorability. โ
The blonde student immediately changed his serious face and sat cross-legged on the ground, his hands on his knees.
"Yes! Not in the future. โ
Although both of them know that "lowering the favorability" is a joke, but the attitude of the valley zero is equivalent to saying clearly: the teacher's favorability is very important, and he will not do anything that will make the teacher hate, so don't hate him.
Kawashima Ezaki was not angry at all, but being valued so much that the depressed mood of going to work has changed a lot.
"I'm out of the house."
"Please walk slowly and be careful on the road."
Kawashima Ezaki changed his shoes, took the car keys on the shoe cabinet in the entrance and went out, and half an hour later, he arrived at the location that Gin said in his low-key business car.
Tokyo may be the most densely populated city in the world, but there aren't many people in the bars on weekday afternoons. Most of the guests who came were just drinking, the music was soft, there was almost no smell of smoke in the air, and the silhouettes of people sitting in twos and threes could be faintly seen in the dim light.
Kawashima Ezaki raised an eyebrow in surprise.
I didn't expect the bar environment chosen by Gin to be quite good.
He looked around, and finally found some man in black sitting in the corner.
"Long hair, black clothes, so dim lights and wearing a hat, it's gin."
Kawashima lifted his legs and walked that way, the main thing was self-confidence.
โgใโ
Gin looked at the passer.
The new member of the organization walked over unhurriedly, sat on the tall feet opposite the booth, looked left and right, and finally naturally complained to him, "Vodka is not there?" I thought you were all together no matter what you did. โ
Talking as if they were conjoined babies, Gin once again reflected on whether he had been too good at talking lately.
"Is this what you're "doing?"
The implication is that if you push more, you will get out.
Gin's eyes are getting more and more impatient, he is a very vicious look, his pupils are small, and they are very dark green, and the skeleton is very large, wherever he sits, he is a proper โกโก boss.
Few people refuse to leave after sensing his emotions.
Kawashima Ezaki counts as one.
The young man put one hand on his cheek and smoothed his hair, "Okay, okay, I'm not kidding, seriously, how is your relationship with Rum?" โ
"Hmph, what can I have to do with the guy with his head and tail hidden."
Kawashima Ezaki understands that Gin doesn't look down on each other.
However, it is understandable that as far as he knows, there are also different divisions of labor in the black-clad organization, such as the research group, the operation group, the intelligence group, and the money team responsible for the source of funds.
Gin and Rum are the bosses of the operation team, and the other is the head of the intelligence group, although they are equal in position, but because of the special status of the intelligence group, Gin often has to act according to Rum's intelligence.
This inevitably has a sense of unwillingness and aggrieved to be instructed.
Knowing that the relationship between the two is not good, Kawashima Esaki can lead to the topic.
"Rum is very concerned about the 'sleeping detective' who has been in the limelight lately......"
Gin's fingers moved slightly, but he thought of the rookie in front of him and Rum's subordinate Bourbon, "How do you know?" โ
Kawashima Ezaki took it for granted, "Bourbon was writing an action report, and I accidentally peeked at it." โ
"Really accidental?"
"It's better than being kept in the dark and being a tool to be used. I mean myself. โ
The black-haired young man smiled at him innocently, there was no outstanding color on his body, only monotonous black and white, but it looked pleasing to the eye.
"I was very skeptical about Rum as to why he was so interested in Mori Kogoro, but when I got to know him, I found out that he was just a lucky scrap uncle, and Rum must have other purposes."
"Is it ......?"
Kawashima Ezaki dragged out his voice, "Could it be related to the sherry that defected a few months ago?" โ
After speaking, Kawashima Ezaki stared closely at Gin's expression.
No matter what Gin answers, he can use the question to play and knock on the side of the absinthe.
Shiho Miyano's defection is known only to internal members.
Kawashima Ezaki entered the action group where Gin was, his qualifications were still young but his identity was sufficient, and Gin didn't say hello to let people hide from him, and it was not surprising that Kawashima knew.
Not to mention anything else, the few people under him are not strict-mouthed.
Here is a critical critique of Scotland by name.
Don't think he doesn't know, after the warehouse is parted, the new members are like a communicator, messing around with flowers and grass, meat and vegetarian are not taboo, men and women are not limited, and through vodka they asked for the contact information of all the members of the organization who have met.
Vodka was with him at the time, and he found that the first person to agree to his friend's application was Scotland.
Tut.
Goblin.
Gin looked at Kawashima Ezaki expressionlessly, and most of his eyes were covered by long silver hair, and his expression was not unusual.
The posture of the two seems to be relaxed, and Kawashima speaks softly with a smile, but if a third party is present, you can feel that the atmosphere between them is not as friendly as it seems.
Hidden under the corners of the mouth with a light smile is centrifugal and detached.
Just when neither of them spoke, the voice in the bar suddenly became a little louder, and there was a bit of noise.
Kawashima Ezaki raised his eyes and found that it were two sexyly dressed women.
Both of them were wearing ultra-short tight dresses, big wavy smoky makeup, and stepping on stiletto heels, and the door attracted the eyes of all the men in the room as soon as they entered.
System: "Wow. โ
When the two beauties asked for wine, chatted and laughed with strange guests, and finally saw Kawashima and Gin, and walked in their direction.
The system was even more excited: "Wow, wow, wow! โ
Kawashima Esaki was annoyed by him: "...... So something that isn't even a human being, what's exciting? โ
By this time they had already walked to the booth and ruffled their hair at the silent gin, the sweet aroma diffusing in the air.
"Sir, may you give me a drink?"
As he spoke, he wanted to put his fingers on the back of Gin's hand.
The system laughed out loud and decided to hurt each other with the host, "But people weren't attracted to you, they came here because of gin~Oh, the charm of the big beauty has failed~~":,,
