Chapter 98 Combating Corruption: Forcing Through
"Tou-chan—how do you think this outfit is? I think it suits you really!"
Inside the shopping mall, Bai Yexiu, with an innocent and cheerful smile, waved to Amuro Tooru not far away while holding a gray coat.
"It looks nice, but you didn't really have to buy it for me. This brand must be very expensive," Amuro Tooru said helplessly, rubbing his forehead.
"How can that be? As my subordinate, you need to maintain appearances! Besides, I just saw you peeking at this dress." Bai Yexiu slammed the bundle of clothes he was carrying onto the counter with an air of nonchalance. "Check, please!"
Amuro Tooru shook his head helplessly.
He felt that today's Cointreau was less like shopping and more like an emotional outburst.
Recalling the painful expression on Kundo's face when he fell asleep yesterday, which seemed to be enduring great pain, Amuro Tooru couldn't help but wonder what kind of terrifying and painful nightmare Kundo had.
They shopped from morning till dusk. When they came out of the mall, Amuro Tooru followed behind carrying large bags, while Byakuya Xiu was enjoying his grilled skewers.
Amuro Toru freed one hand and took out his car keys from his pocket: "Where does Junto want to go next?"
"A mission is assigned to Building B2 of the Ginza Building in the city center." Bai Yexiu tossed the skewers and the remaining barbecue into the trash can and opened the door of the Mazda to get in.
Amuro Tooru was stunned for a moment, somewhat flattered and surprised.
Is Cointreau taking him on a mission?
Amuro Tooru immediately put the clothes in the trunk, got into the car, and started the engine.
……
As it approached 8 p.m., many company employees inside the building had already packed up and left work. Although the area is in the city center, there were fewer pedestrians on the street.
In the car, Bai Yexiu had remained silent and hadn't told Amuro Tooru about the mission. Now that they'd gotten out of the car, Amuro Tooru finally couldn't help but ask, "What are we going to do in a bit?"
"Murder." Bai Yexiu uttered the two words expressionlessly, and gestured to the mysterious black box he was carrying: "Otherwise, what do you think I'm doing with this box when I go out?"
"..."
Okay, okay, Cointreau is so straightforward...
This was the first time Amuro Tooru had met Kimihiro, who spoke so bluntly.
The two entered the building one after the other and took the elevator. Neither of them spoke on the way, but Amuro Tooru noticed that Shirayuki seemed to be wearing a faint smile—not the kind of smile that comes from a happy mood, but rather a smile that seems to come from a little excitement.
Bai Yexiu rolled his eyes and suddenly noticed that Amuro Tooru seemed to have a nervous expression on his face, so he reassured him, "Don't worry, I've already had someone hack the surveillance cameras in the entire building beforehand, so we won't leave any evidence."
That's not how you offer comfort. Amuro Tooru's lips twitched.
As an undercover agent sent by the public security bureau, he was taken by his superiors to commit murder, but he comforted himself by saying that he would not leave any evidence.
Amuro Tooru smiled at Byakuya Xiu: "No, it's just that you haven't told me the details of the mission yet, and I'm afraid I'll do it wrong."
"Toru, where's your courage to play riddles with Gin? Why are you being so polite to me?" Bai Yexiu put his hands on his hips and looked up at Amuro Tooru, his eyes full of inquiry.
Ding--
Just then, the elevator arrived at its floor, and the beeping sound disrupted the atmosphere inside.
When the elevator doors opened, two burly men stood prominently at the elevator entrance!
"Who are you?!" Two burly men stepped forward at the same time, trying to subdue Bai Yexiu and Amuro Tooru.
Amuro Tooru's hand was already on the gun handle, almost ready to take it out. This scene made Amuro Tooru turn his head to see what Shirayu was going to do, but he only saw Shirayu lower his hand, which he had inexplicably raised.
Amuro Tooru looked back at the two burly men with a puzzled expression—the two men had scalpels stuck in their hearts, with only a small part of the handle sticking out.
"!"
However, in the short time it took him to turn his head, he didn't even see how Jundu made his move.
Two burly men fell backward onto the ground with a loud bang.
"Let's go." Bai Yexiu ignored the burly man's corpse and stepped out of the elevator.
Stepping out of the elevator, one is met with an empty corridor. Amuro Tooru inexplicably felt that the layout of this floor resembled a tomb, but in reality—
"See that? I told that guy before that this place looks like a tomb, but he wouldn't listen." Bai Yexiu started pointing.
After pushing open a door, there was another long corridor, at the end of which was an office. The difference was that every few meters along this corridor, there was a burly bodyguard in black carrying a pistol.
As soon as the door was pushed open by two strangers, the bodyguards in the corridor rushed forward, forming a dark wall of people in front of them.
"Who are you?!" A bodyguard in black drew his gun.
"Hmph." Bai Yexiu snorted lightly, opened the black box in his hand and took out two miniature submachine guns.
Upon seeing this, the bodyguards in black immediately opened fire on them.
The narrow corridor was filled with gunfire, but Bai Yexiu dodged with ease. After throwing one of his submachine guns to Amuro Tooru, Bai Yexiu nimbly dodged while simultaneously firing the submachine gun in his hand.
Amuro Tooru, on the other hand, was having a very hard time dodging and could only choose to engage in close combat and look for opportunities to fire small bursts of bullets.
The entire brawl was captured on the security camera outside the office and witnessed by Tanaka Shiyo.
“This person isn’t…” Tanaka Shiyo stared at the familiar-looking boy in the surveillance footage, lost in thought—
Why did Cointreau bring such a fierce person to kill him here?
Tanaka Shiyo recalled that Jundu and Pei Nuo were close friends. Could it be that her plan to secretly plot against Pei Nuo had been exposed? ...
Tanaka Shiyo was drenched in sweat.
In less than a minute, his six bodyguards were either dead or crippled, and the two devils were now marching toward his office. Moreover, he couldn't help but think through all the corrupt and embezzled things he had ever done. Could it be that the boss had ordered him to be eliminated?
"Tanaka Shiyo, are you going to open the door yourself, or am I going to kick it down?" Bai Yexiu, completely unharmed, stood in front of the office door and shouted, his imposing manner startling Tanaka Shiyo inside, who fell to the ground with a thud.
