Ke Xue World: The Confrontation between Black and Red

On the night when the organization was completely destroyed, Rei Furuya had a dream he hadn't had in a long time.

in dreams,

He finally saw his good friend from the same class who had not appeared in his dreams for a long time.

Even though the biological alarm clock that had been running for years made this dream last less than two hours, he was still very satisfied when he woke up.

Naturally, there was no need for Fūya Zero to personally search for the remnants of the organization. After returning from undercover, the senior officials of the National Police Agency gave him countless praises and compliments without hesitation.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that he will receive more substantial rewards after the undercover investigation period is over.

During the time when he no longer needed to be so cautious, Rei Furuya went to several places including Kanagawa and Nagano under the surveillance of undercover investigators.

I didn't go out of my way to meet anyone, nor did I go out of my way to look for anyone.

The two-month undercover investigation period finally gave Rei Kotani enough respite for his nerves, which had been tense like a conditioned reflex.

Even the insomnia symptoms that he developed during his undercover days were effectively alleviated.

In March when the early cherry blossoms were in full bloom, Fūya Rei, who had completed his undercover investigation period, officially became the leader of Public Security Team Zero and became the signature figure of the National Police Agency.

The rank of Superintendent of Police has the same salary, benefits and authority as that of Chief Inspector of Police.

His legendary undercover experience and numerous honors have made him the envy and idol of countless police officers.

For a time, the Japanese Public Security Bureau, a group with a very bad reputation in the police system, actually gained some good reputation.

But...Rei Furuya was not very happy about this.

The undercover career that occupied one-third of his life taught him not only how to survive better in the other world.

It also allows him to clearly see the not-so-beautiful reality hidden underneath after removing the filters of status, reputation, image, etc.

The Black Organization was destroyed, and the vast majority of people who hid their identities or even sacrificed their lives for it did not receive the treatment and honor they deserved.

The yellowed files are still locked deep in the archive room that never sees the light of day, just like the years they lived, as if they are not worthy of appearing in the sunlight.

Compared to these unimportant things, which can be done at any time or not at all.

Naturally, the top leaders of various countries prefer to focus most of their energy on dividing the spoils after defeating the Black Organization.

No, it would be more appropriate to use the word "scramble".

Sitting in his seat at the conference hall, Fūya Rei listened to the quarrels and table-slamming sounds that came one after another.

Looking at the group of people in front of me, who were dressed neatly, speaking various languages rapidly and arguing with each other until their faces were red.

I just feel ironic.

This was the third meeting of the same nature he had participated in since completing his undercover investigation.

It had been like this every time before.

They argued from the beginning to the end of the meeting.

The topic of controversy always revolves around two words.

--Benefit.

When a whale falls, all things come to life. Even if a transnational criminal group that is supported by countless money and wealth is destroyed, what it leaves behind is far more valuable than a whale.

Among these, the most valuable one, which has caused all parties to argue and fail to reach a consensus, is a piece of information.

Eternal life, this word seems to be born with the power to bewitch people. Just by mentioning it, countless people can lose their minds.

The sun was high in the sky, and the sunlight shone through the windows, illuminating the entire conference room.

Nearing noon, the meeting, which had not been quiet for even a minute since the beginning, finally came to an end.

Unlike before, this time, after seeing others off, Fūya Rei did not go back to deal with the work at hand, but instead sent out a text message.

Twenty minutes later, Rei Furugaya, dressed simply, appeared at Dr. Agasa's house.

In the room, not only Kudo Yusaku's family was there, but also Akai Shuichi, Akai Mary and others who had just been seen in the meeting twenty minutes ago all appeared here in an orderly manner.

Everyone knew that there was definitely something important that brought Rei Furuya here.

But when he spoke, everyone couldn't help but show their shock.

"Thirty minutes ago, someone exploited a programming loophole, bypassing normal procedures and secretly accessed the highly confidential information stored in the police department's archives."

As soon as she finished speaking, Haibara Ai's face turned pale.

No one knew better than her what was recorded in that document.

Once that information falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, it will be a Pandora's box that can be opened at any time.

"I will find out who accessed the information as soon as possible."

Fūya Rei's expression was serious.

"Before that, there are two things I need your help with."

That night,

A huge fire broke out in the National Police Agency's data room, which stored the APTX series data.

The entire police department building became extremely lively because of this. At the same time, after changing her clothes, Haibara Ai boarded a plane to Ying Country accompanied by Sera Masumi.

then,

Unfortunately, a precious document, the only one of its kind, was destroyed in the fire.

The official forces of various countries, which had always failed to reach an agreement, seemed to have finally realized that they had stayed in a rural place like Japan for too long.

So after a brief fourth meeting to divide the spoils, everyone quickly went home.

The moment he confirmed that these people had finally left, Jōgōu Rei suddenly felt that the air had become much fresher.

Little did he know that just when he was fully motivated to get ready to talk to his superiors.

While striving for the honor and rewards that they deserve for the undercover investigators who sacrificed their lives, including Kotori Morifushi Kagemitsu, and for all those who contributed to the elimination of the Black Organization.

Some people have already started thinking about how to get rid of this thorn in their side.

At the same time, thousands of miles away, someone gave a very cold evaluation of his information.

"He is an excellent person, but unfortunately in such an environment, his excellence will only make him die faster."

The information containing the recent movements of Rei Furuya was casually thrown back on the table. The young man with short crimson hair and wearing light-colored casual home clothes leaned back slightly, and his straight back was pressed back against the comfortable sofa.

The young man had a face that could be described as sharp and handsome. His expression was calm, but there was a clear hint of arrogance between his eyebrows.

But few people realize that the young man is very handsome.

Or to be more precise, rather than his appearance, the first thing anyone who saw the young man noticed was the lingering indifference around him.

And those unforgettable eyes.

April is springtime in London.

But even though the floor heating system in the house has maximized its contribution, there is always a lingering chill in the air.

Although the real reason may be the half-open corner window not far away.

However, Whisky felt that the gin on the other side had added too much air conditioning.

Of course, this is understandable.

After all, no one who is surrounded and almost loses his life will show a happy expression when hearing the enemy's new achievements.

Especially... I once admired and recognized the other person's abilities.

Recalling the few things Gin had occasionally mentioned to him on the phone, Whiskey, in a good mood, decided not to bother with Gin about it.

Instead, he showed rare concern for his injuries.

Gin, who knew clearly the character of this guy, was not moved at all.

After taking a look at the information on the table, Gin seemed to realize something, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

"Who is going to get involved?"

"not me."

In the silent silence, Gin's dark green pupils shrank slightly.

Looking at the young man in front of him who told him his true intentions calmly, he suddenly smiled coldly.

"Karasuma Soshin, it's already come to this, and you still haven't faced reality?"

Facing Gin's coldness, Whiskey blinked in surprise, then raised the corners of his lips and smiled very freely.

"So what?"

At worst, you'll just get a few beatings and be put in solitary confinement for a few days.

"As a father, he wouldn't kill his own son. It's not the first day he knows what kind of person I am."

Seeing Whiskey's indifferent look, Gin's eyes darkened. He wanted to say something, but suddenly he heard the sound of wings cutting through the air outside the window.

Not long after, a crow with slightly wet feathers flew through the half-open corner window and landed steadily on Whiskey's shoulder.

Then, the unmistakable sound of a vehicle engine came from afar, and a completely black car came into the sight of the two.

Gin was the first to get up from the sofa, but until the door was pushed open from the outside, Whiskey was still leaning on the sofa, with no intention of getting up to greet him.

May and June,

The cherry blossoms that were in full bloom a month ago have now fallen and not a single one can be found.

After months of negotiations, the dark stalkers who had been buried in time along with the files and made contributions and sacrifices to the destruction of the Black Organization finally received the compensation and honor they deserved.

However, in the investigation of the case in which top secret information was accessed without following proper procedures, Rei Fūya has never made much progress.

On the night when the archive room burned down, Fūya Rei, who had made arrangements in advance, successfully caught the person who exploited the program loophole and accessed the confidential information.

However, the moment the other party realized that he could not escape, he shot himself, leaving behind a body that was deader than dead.

Naturally, Rei Furuya didn't think that the matter ended here.

But when he followed the clues he could find on the deceased, he found that the whole matter became more and more confusing.

A police officer who seems to be so ordinary in terms of his resume, but the interpersonal relationships behind him are so complicated that they can be drawn as a tree with lush branches and leaves.

Time passed by in a flash, and the end of September slipped away into the distance with the election for the new prime minister.

Everyone knows that when one person succeeds, everyone around him will benefit.

Therefore, the series of personnel changes that took place after the new prime minister took office did not attract much attention.

But the zero valley is exactly the accident.

With extremely high authority, he soon discovered that these people had one thing in common in this series of personnel transfers.

That is, it has a close relationship, either overt or covert, with the Karasuma Group, Japan's largest conglomerate.

The Karasuma Group, the Karasuma Family, Karasuma Renya, Karasuma Soshin, the Black Organization...

As his train of thought continued to expand and build, a dark truth hidden beneath the flowers and sunshine finally revealed its clear outline in front of Rei Furuya.

For a moment, Fūya Rei felt the absurdity of hearing a black humor joke.

But, he is an ace intelligence officer who has gone through countless crises and walked between life and death several times.

Soon, he regained his spirit and threw himself into a new battle.

Time flies like an arrow.

Before she knew it, Haibara Ai had been in Ying Country for more than half a year.

During this period, she lived more easily than ever before.

After leaving the land that carried the scent of her sister's death, she no longer had to play the role of a primary school student, nor did she have to be frightened to the point of suffering a nervous breakdown.

In a foreign country, the company of her family gave her enough sense of spiritual security.
