Chapter 68 Tequila: Lord Gin’s mission must not fail!
Chapter 68 Tequila: Lord Gin’s mission must not fail!
The working hours are always long.
But when working, I often don’t know where the time goes…
From late October to early March.
Many members of the organization found that the big tasks were no longer there, and only some trivial matters remained.
The big part is that they take money from others, including but not limited to threats, fraud, and extortion...
It’s a small matter. They give money to others in exchange for the intelligence needed by the organization, including but not limited to the financial sector...
Of course, in the minds of peripheral members, this is how the distinction between big and small works.
But in the eyes of the core members, intelligence is much more important than money...
Especially the old members, how could they not know how rich the organization is?
Is the organization committing extortion because it is short of money?
Are you kidding? That's for emergency use - the money extorted by the organization will basically not be used. God knows where the organization's real funding source is.
And the intelligence purchased from all kinds of people is the foundation for the survival of the organization.
If we really analyze it carefully, maybe half of Japan's top leaders have financial or intelligence dealings with the organization...
and so.
Tequila is in a very serious mood right now.
Now, it has been more than a year since Gin gave him the task.
However, he only collected a list of less than fifty software engineers, and their quality was uneven. For the organization, this number was definitely not enough.
There is one more important point:
The software engineer that Gin asked him to focus on, the man named Itakura Taku, had just returned to Japan recently, and he hadn't had time to get in touch with him yet...
Although Gin did not limit the time for completing the task, the rules of the organization naturally require that it be completed as quickly as possible.
Tequila seriously read the message sent by his subordinates yesterday from Itakura Taku, and he already understood what he had to do:
"We must find a way to get this software and hand it over to the organization."
Tequila pressed down his top hat, put on a black suit, picked up a suitcase full of 10,000 yen in cash, and strode out.
The mission assigned by Lord Gin must not fail!
……
Lezhuo Games Company.
Itakura Taku was wearing glasses and typing code in his own office.
When he was about to take a break and drink some water, a voice suddenly came from outside the door:
"Mr. Itakura is right here, so I'll excuse myself first..."
Itakura Taku remembered this voice, it seemed to be a girl from the stands on this floor.
Then, a man hummed in a low voice, and there was a knock on the office door.
Itakura Taku was slightly stunned.
Coming to see him? But it seems like no one else has an appointment today!
He looked at his watch and found that there was still a long time before the time his friend had agreed to meet him.
"Please come in." Itakura Taku slid his chair slightly away from the computer.
squeak~
The simple wooden door was pulled open.
A burly man in a black suit, a black top hat, carrying a black briefcase and with two big mustaches on his lips occupied the entire door frame.
"You are, Itakura Taku?"
As soon as the burly man in black opened his mouth, Itakura Taku heard his strong Kansai accent.
But this attitude...
Itakura Taku was a little displeased and frowned: "I am, what do you want to talk to me about? I remember you didn't make an appointment, right?"
"My purpose of coming here is to acquire the software you developed previously."
The burly man in black with a Kansai accent lifted up his suitcase.
"As long as you are willing to sell it, I can pay you a satisfactory price."
Itakura Taku was stunned.
This is the first time I've seen someone come directly to his door to buy his software...
However. Itakura Taku looked at the suitcase, his expression inexplicably improved, and he said apologetically: "Ah... So that's how it is, but I have developed a lot of software before, I don't know which one you are talking about?"
"It's the software with the abbreviation 'IANE'."
The burly man in black spread out a piece of paper, allowing Itakura Taku to clearly see the two letters and a punctuation mark on it.
"IANE?" Itakura Taku was stunned again, then said regretfully, "This software... Sorry, because my health is getting worse and worse, my eyesight has been declining, and the project of that software is too big, so I have stopped developing it."
"Has it stopped?"
The burly man in black was stunned, his face looked a little bad, although it was not much better to begin with, "I can provide funds for your development, the price is not a problem."
"…I'm sorry, I really don't plan to work on that software anymore." Itakura Taku said without any hesitation.
Seeing the other party being so decisive, the sturdy man in black's eyes became completely cold and ruthless.
He walked out of his office with his box in hand. "I think you'd better think about it... otherwise you will be of no use to me."
Itakura Taku frowned when he heard this.
When the burly man in black walked out of the office, he almost bumped into a square-faced man with tied hair, but he didn't even look at the man.
The square-faced man dodged the burly man in black and walked into the office in a strange way...
"Oh! Souma, you're here..."
……
Tequila walked out of the gaming company with a gloomy face.
The development of this software was suddenly terminated before, and we thought it was completed, but we didn’t expect that the development was interrupted... But we cannot rule out the possibility that the other party is unwilling to give them the software.
It seems that we have no choice but to use plan B.
Tequila dialed a number, "Hello? It's me, Tequila..."
Humph, if you don’t accept my toast, then you’ll have to drink a penalty drink!
Anyway, the mission assigned by Master Gin must not fail! !
-
Tokyo, Shinjuku.
Gin ran all night, then trained at the training ground for half a day before returning to Qinggang Pharmaceutical.
Sitting in the office, although Gin hadn't slept all night, he felt particularly refreshed after training and felt like he could work for another two nights.
“It’s March again…”
Gin let out a sigh.
He remembered it very clearly. It was at this time two years ago that the undercover agent named Bentang disappeared.
Also two years ago, around May, Scotland was also exposed...
Gin silently buried Ethan in his heart.
Gin may often not be able to remember the living members unless there is something particularly outstanding about them; but for the dead members, Gin can at least remember the names.
He may not fear anyone, but he must respect the dead...
No matter what the reason is.
Gin briefly reminisced about the dead undercover agents and organization members, as well as his own people who had sacrificed, and then entered the highest level of work mode again - without any emotions.
Among the emails sent by the core members of the organization, Gin caught his eye on the penultimate email at first sight and clicked on it to read the content.
Inside was a list attachment and an action report.
Qin recalled for five minutes with Alzheimer's wine.
He remembered asking Tequila to recruit software engineers, but this action report was about... acquiring software?
In Gin's Memories...
Recall failure.
After spending a few minutes looking for the task email he assigned to Tequila, Gin finally remembered the matter of Itakura Taku.
"..."
No, he really needs to replenish his brain.
The brain-boosting plan that has been delayed_(:з」∠)_
