Chapter 0218: I miss my phone

Finished dinner.

After saying goodbye to the little guy, Hoshino Bai Ze went out.

He went to the place where he and Vermouth had met for the only time in a bar, which was the Fallen Angel Bar.

The journey was not far, and he arrived at the place about half an hour later. He glanced at the quiet streets around him, looked at the door in front of him, paused for a moment, then pushed it open and walked in.

As the bell on the door rang a few times, the bar, which was originally a little gloomy, became silent in an instant, as if the pause button had been pressed. However, it only lasted for a short moment and then became lively again, as if it was a normal bar that could not be more normal.

"Aren't you here?"

Hoshino Bai Ze saw that there was no one at the bar, and thought that he had made a mistake. Just as he was about to leave, the bartender inside the bar called out, "Hello, is this Mr. Hoshino? If so, please wait here. Because a distinguished guest has left a message for you, saying that you should not leave in a hurry, and she will be here soon."

“It’s quite mysterious.”

Hoshino Bai Ze paused, muttered something in his heart, walked towards the bar, sat directly on the chair, and looked at some customers in other directions.

If nothing unexpected happened, these people around should be peripheral members of the organization. After all, they were all dressed in various styles, and none of them were dressed in black like the core members. They could only be described as a group of minions.

He didn't know if it was his illusion, but he always felt that these people were staring at him intentionally or unintentionally, or looking at his appearance, as if they were confirming something.

"Tsk tsk, it seems like my life will not be easy in the future."

Hoshino Bai Ze thought to himself that he was basically certain that the final outcome of these peripheral members in front of him would be either death in certain missions or being captured by various official forces.

And his identity is likely to be exposed by these people, but fortunately, on the surface he has no relationship with the Black Organization. Even if some people know that he is involved with the Black Organization, there is still room for him to pull it out, and he will not be killed with one blow.

Of course, with his current abilities, ordinary weapons can no longer deal with him.

"Mr. Hoshino, would you like something to drink?"

It was at this time that the bartender started to ask, his tone and gesture were quite respectful, even with a hint of flattery.

"Uh, a fresh juice."

Hoshino Bai Ze didn't think there was anything wrong. After all, the Black Organization believed in the law of the jungle. If you were strong, whatever you said would be right. You wouldn't even have to open your mouth, someone would come to help you solve some small problems.

"Okay... okay." The bartender was stunned, but still took the initiative to look for fruit. After all, what he just talked about was fresh juice. The mixed ones would definitely not work. As for why he didn't ask for wine, the bartender instinctively regarded it as a personal habit. After all, not everyone likes to drink, and it is normal to like enjoying juice.

Because in this organization, people often face life and death situations, and some people's habits are very strange, but just drinking juice in a bar is already as normal as it can be.

As the bartender left.

There was no one around Hoshino Bai Ze, which made him very bored.

Fortunately, this bar, although not a bar for ordinary people, still plays some soothing music, otherwise it would be really boring.

"Oh, it would be nice if I had a cell phone."

At this moment, Hoshino Bai Ze really missed his future life. With a smartphone, he wouldn't be so bored even if he was alone.

When you have nothing to do, you can watch videos, movies, TV series, and all kinds of novels. When you are tired, you can enjoy music, the news and gossip flying around, and countless interesting things happening abroad. These things combined can enrich your spiritual enjoyment.

It’s not like now, when I am alone, I can truly feel the loneliness. That state of having nothing to do is very uncomfortable.

Especially when there are people around you who keep glancing at you from time to time, it really makes people feel uneasy. They don’t know what expression to use or where to put their hands.

"Sister Bei, Sister Bei, please come quickly, I'm really bored."

"Really? Women are all the same. They were the ones who asked for the date first, but they were still late. They are really bullying."

Hoshino Bai Ze kept daydreaming, for no particular purpose, just to kill some time.

that's it.

He just stared blankly.

I don’t know how long it took, but when I didn’t know what to think, I suddenly realized that those people from other places had left one by one.

He walked so carefully that he didn't even dare to make any loud noise.

"Hmm? What's going on?"

Hoshino Bai Ze raised his eyebrows, wondering if he should leave as well.

But at this time, the bartender finally came back with a glass of fresh juice, his steps were a little hurried, even a little anxious.

"Mr. Hoshino, I'm sorry, I have to leave first. Here's the juice you asked for."

After the bartender finished speaking, he took out a bottle of red wine and two glasses from the wine rack behind him and placed them on the bar. Without further explanation, he left quickly.

It only took a short while.

In the dark red bar, the only person left was Hoshino Shirazawa, who was sitting at the bar with a strange look on his face.

Really, he was so confused and had no idea what was going on.

He even had some doubts as to whether it was Vermouth who asked him to meet here, or whether some important person wanted to see him on purpose.

"are you crazy."

Hoshino Bai Ze complained lightly, picked up the juice in front of him, and played with it carefully. His ability [Danger Prediction] was not activated, which meant that there was nothing dangerous in the juice and it would not cause any harm to him.

From this perspective, it seems that the situations just now were not a trap designed against him, but something really happened, or someone was coming, and they were notified and left by some actions in advance that he was not aware of.

A "ding" sound.

The door of the bar opened and the sound of bells rang out.

When Xingye Bai Ze turned his head, he found a familiar figure rushing over and sitting next to him. He picked up the bottle of red wine left by the bartender, poured himself half a glass, and tasted it without hesitation.

Chapter 0219: Is Sister Bei going to stand me up?

In front of the bar.

An old man wearing a hat was quietly tasting red wine, shaking his head from time to time. He seemed to be enjoying it very much and immersed in his own world.

And next to him.

Hoshino Bai Ze stared with a pair of dead fish eyes, looked down at the juice in the glass, and inexplicably felt as if he was suppressed in momentum. After all, one was drinking wine and the other was drinking juice, so the meanings were always slightly different.

But it's too late to say anything now. The juice is already in my hand and there is no point in explaining.

"Well, Director Sakamaki, why are you here tonight?"

"No, nothing at all. I just met two people outside and passed by here on my way back, so I notified them that I was coming over for a drink."

"No wonder they all left. It turned out to be you who did it."

"What else?" Sakumaki Akishiro glanced at Hoshino Bai Ze and said quietly, "They are all peripheral members and cannot know my identity. After all, I am a core member. If it is exposed, it will cause a lot of trouble."

"That's it. They were staring at me when I came here just now."

"It's okay. They won't treat you as a core member, because core members won't just appear like this. They know this very well."

"Too."

Hoshino Bai Ze nodded. This was indeed the case. Otherwise, with an organization as powerful as the Black Organization and Leaky, if every core member showed up openly, they would have been wiped out long ago. Otherwise, they would not have survived for twenty years.

All I can say is that there are some little tricks, but not too many. Otherwise, they would not all be undercover agents in the future. Their lives are so miserable, and they live entirely on their former fame.

"By the way, what are you doing here?" Sakujuan Zhaoshi was quite curious about this. After all, she never saw the other person before.

He instinctively thought that something had happened that was why he came here on his own initiative, which made him become active.

"It's not my intention to come."

"What do you mean? Someone invited you here?"

"of course."

"Who?"

Jiujuan Zhao raised his eyebrows and slowly put down the wine glass. He couldn't help but think of what happened before.

Gin took the initiative to come to me, wanting to meet with Hoshino Shirazawa and resolve the previous grudges once again.

Moreover, he heard during this period that Rum was very optimistic about Gin, so he subconsciously thought that Hoshino Shirazawa's appearance in this bar might be an order from Rum, asking him to meet with Gin and resolve the previous grudge.

When he thought of this possible result, his expression became serious. To be honest, he didn't like juniors like Gin very much. They were too bloody and too cold-blooded. Although this was his fate of joining the organization, he could imagine that the other party would definitely be a very scary person in the future.

After all, if you want to make friends, you must make friends with people who have good personalities and are not so cold-blooded.

For example, he is very optimistic about Hoshino Bai Ze and thinks that this kid can take over his job in the future and will not be involved in blood and bullets. At least on the surface, he can live the life he wants, which is actually a good thing.

Because the organization is very powerful and has influence in all aspects, although these forces are only in secret, for some seemingly normal people, it is a very scary force that can make those who appear in the open live very comfortably.

For example, Sakuramaki Akishino is an example. Since he was young, he has never been troubled. In fact, he had some difficulties, but they were all solved secretly by the organization. It can be said that his life has been smooth sailing, and at least three-fifths of the credit is due to the organization, and the remaining two-fifths is due to his own ability.

"Who? Who else could it be?"

Hoshino Bai Ze took a big gulp of juice, missing the sofa at home and wanting to lie down on it very much:

"I only know a few people. Who else do you think can give me orders except her?"

Thinking of Vermouth, I felt helpless. I had been waiting here for a long time, and even the old man Sakumaki Akishima came, but that woman was reluctant to show up. I really don't know what she is doing.

He also thought of what Ryoko said, and judging from Vermouth's expression, it seemed that even if he didn't come today, it would actually be okay.

When he thought of this, he regretted it very much. He should have pretended that he knew nothing, or that he couldn't find the meeting place and didn't need to come.

But now, everything is too late. I have already come here and have been seen by so many people. I even heard the message she left for the bartender. If I just leave now.

Hoshino Bai Ze can be very sure that the next time they meet, that woman Vermouth will definitely cause a lot of trouble.

"Well, that seems to be the case. Haha..."

Sakujyou Akishino smiled awkwardly, and at this moment she finally reacted.

After all, although Hoshino Shirazawa is considered a member of the organization on the surface, in reality, he belongs to Vermouth and is not under the control of anyone else.

In other words, what he had been thinking about for a long time was purely his own imagination. Without Vermouth speaking, Rum didn't dare to order Hoshino Bai Ze at all. Otherwise, if Vermouth made a fuss, it would be very troublesome.

After all, apart from the boss, there are few people in the organization who can suppress Vermouth. If something troublesome happens, it will not be good for anyone.

Therefore, it is impossible for Rum to be so stupid as to do something that would lead to internal strife without Vermouth's consent.

"Director Sakamaki, do you have any contact information? Please help me contact her. I have been waiting here for a long time."

"No."

"Is it true?" Hoshino Bai Ze was very skeptical about this.

"Really." Sakumaki Akishiro said helplessly, "After all, I am in charge of different things than she is. In other words, under normal circumstances, there will be no intersection between the two of us. So, if I have her contact information, no matter who of us has problems, it will cause some unnecessary trouble. After all, we are considered to be hated by everyone."

"Okay then. I'll wait slowly..." Hoshino Bai Ze gave up and just did it like this.

Chapter 0220: Unnecessary Worry

for the rest of the time.

The two of them seemed to be silent.

One person is drinking juice, one is drinking red wine, one is a young high school student, and the other is a bald old man. This picture combined together is very interesting, and there is an inexplicable feeling of joy.

This gradually consumed the extremely serious atmosphere in the originally dark red bar.

All I can say is that when these two people get together, it seems as if they can evolve the surroundings naturally. This is not something intentional, but something that really happens. There is no performance element at all. It can even be said that this is something that cannot be performed.

After a while.

Jiujuan Zhaoshi drank well, her old face became ruddy, she exhaled deeply, and slowly opened her mouth and said:

"I have something here that has something to do with you. If you don't take it seriously, you might suffer in the future. I didn't want to tell you at first, but after thinking about that person's character, it's better to remind you first so that you can be prepared."

"Something related to me? I'll suffer a loss? And it's even because of someone..."

Hoshino Bai Ze repeated the key important information, and his eyes gradually narrowed.

To be honest, if it was any other time, he would probably be confused and not know what was going on.

But it was different when it came out of Sakumaki Akishima's mouth. After all, this old man was a member of the Black Organization, and he was the first to know about it, which made him guess what it was.

There was a pause.

It was not until Sakumaki Akishima said it first that Hoshino Shirazawa started to guess:

"The thing you mentioned, or the person who will cause me trouble, isn't it that guy Gin?"

"..."
