Chapter 683 Belmod’s new job
Two years later.
The earth did not stop because of Lin Xinyi's departure.
But the trajectory of the operation changed silently.
At least Shuichi Akai never thought that he, an ace FBI agent, would become a Japanese police officer, and he stayed there for two years.
My days as a police officer in the forensics department are calm and stable.
To him, it seemed like nothing had happened in the past two years.
But it seems that a lot of things happened:
First of all, his work in the forensics class is no longer as busy as before.
Because the forensic craze started by Lin Xinyi on his own finally bore fruitful results two years later.
Out of admiration for Manager Lin and yearning for a just cause, many outstanding medical graduates resolutely gave up their high-paying careers as doctors after graduation and actively jumped into the field of forensic medicine. They chose the promising career of forensic medicine. career.
As a result, the forensics class was finally no longer short of people.
The grassroots team, which originally consisted of a group of veterans and lay police officers, finally established a systematic and professional technical investigation police team after two years of adjustment and progress.
Shuichi Akai and Narumi Asai, the two "department chiefs" who were once in name only, are no longer the polished commanders that no one can use.
And speaking of these new professional talents.
We have to talk about the once famous "Heisei Holmes", Mr. Kudo Shinichi.
He has already entered university with Mao Lilan and is studying medicine at the University of Tokyo;
At the same time, he also followed in the footsteps of Miss Maori and officially joined the forensics class as a special police officer, working with his girlfriend——
Yes, Kudo-san is now his girlfriend's subordinate.
The kind where you have to stand at attention and salute first when you meet someone.
In addition to Kudo Shinichi and Mao Lilan, Akai Shuichi also made many other new friends in his new job and new life in the past two years.
For example, Miss Sonoko is very similar to Miyano Shiho, but her personality is surprisingly easy to deal with.
Her Saiyan boyfriend is so ridiculously strong that he can beat him, a king agent, with one hand.
Dr. Ali, a strange old man whose wife looks 20 years younger than him and who always comes up with some small technological inventions.
Ayumi, Mitsuhiko, Genta, Kudou Shinichi's lifelong friends, the Shinigami elementary school students who always appear at various murder scenes.
Not to mention the drop to zero.
Who would have thought that these two sworn enemies in the black organization would become the famous "ace combination" in the Metropolitan Police Department.
"Time flies so fast."
Recalling the past two years, Akai Shuichi couldn't help but sigh.
Unknowingly, he had a new life.
Only when he was alone in the evening when he was getting off work, with nothing to do and no one to disturb him, would he think about the past with regret.
The things of the past, and the people of the past.
"Akemi."
After all, Akai Shuichi could not completely forget her:
"Are you ok?"
With Lin Xinyi taking care of him, it should be fine.
But Shuichi Akai is worried about Belmode.
That's a dangerous woman.
Thinking that Mingmei was probably living with Belmode now, he instinctively felt worried.
What worried him even more was the mysterious Noah organization.
Although Lin Xinyi never disclosed the specific relationship between him and the Noah organization, nor did he admit whether he was a formal member of the Noah organization.
But in Akai Shuichi’s view:
Lin Xinyi has been able to disappear so completely in the past two years that even the FBI and CIA can't find him at all, so there is obviously another huge force behind him that is secretly protecting him.
This force is probably the Noah organization.
And this Noah organization is very dangerous.
Although Shuichi Akai has been lurking for two full years, relying on the FBI's intelligence network and exchanging intelligence with "friends" such as the CIA and MI6, he has not discovered anything bad that the Noah organization has done in the past two years.
This organization really seems to be just fighting crime and has no other purpose.
But Akai Shuichi still thinks it is dangerous.
Not because of what it does, but because of its very existence——
This Noah organization is really too powerful.
In the past two years, his NEXT Group has been making rapid progress in the field of Internet technology and has become a giant that dominates the global market.
What was even more frightening and even more terrifying to Shuichi Akai was a piece of news he saw on TV not long ago.
According to the news, NEXT Group has successfully improved and perfected the virtual reality technology developed by Sindora Group, and creatively proposed a new concept of "using artificial intelligence technology to restore human consciousness and give NPCs real human behavior patterns."
Most people haven’t felt much about this news yet.
I just thought it was the 2.0 version of the virtual reality game that was invented by the Sindora Group a long time ago.
The so-called new technology is just a game design technology to make NPCs more like real people.
But Akai Shuichi was keenly aware that this matter was not that simple.
Because artificial intelligence technology is used to restore human consciousness.
The black organization has been studying this technology before.
After all, if this technology for making real-life NPCs could be used slightly differently, it would be:
Consciousness is uploaded, and data is immortal!
It has about the same effect as the elixir.
The research on prescription medicines has continued for decades, gathering the wisdom of countless top scientists, and conducting countless unscrupulous human experiments. In the end, only two successful special individuals were produced.
Who knows how long it will take for the research to be successful.
Or even whether the research can be successful.
Therefore, even if the United States took over the research on the elixir from the black organization as they wished, they still failed to obtain any tangible results from this research.
And if at this time, the Noah Organization can provide a mature and reliable alternative to those dignitaries who desperately want to live forever.
Then it can control the whole world!
After realizing this shocking fact, Shuichi Akai did not forget to report his conjecture to the top of the FBI.
However, the top FBI leaders unanimously refuted him and advised him to seriously "lurk" in the Noah organization and not to speculate and have random thoughts all day long.
This made Akai Shuichi even more vigilant:
He even suspected that the top officials of the FBI were colluding with the Noah organization.
If this is the case, then even he, the ace agent, may not be able to stop the ambitions of the Noah organization.
"Ding--"
Akai Shuichi is thinking about these major events related to the rise and fall of the country and the fate of mankind.
Suddenly, a short message reminder brought him back to reality.
"Shuichi, go home early tonight"
"Mom, they are already here, and they are just waiting for you to come back to take a family photo."
"Well, I'll be right back."
Akai Shuichi quickly replied to the message.
His eyes were unconsciously fixed on the screen of his mobile phone, where Miss Judy's profile picture was full of happy smiles.
Next to Miss Judy's happy smile, his note to her was:
Wife.
"It's time to go home."
Akai Shuichi looked at his watch.
And the wedding ring on her hand.
The worries and vigilance about Noah's organization just now quietly dissipated from his mind.
Akai Shuichi suddenly didn't want to think about those big things anymore.
He has fallen in love with this little life where couples join hands and families reunite.
The dangerous mission of saving the world may not be what he should consider now.
"go home."
Akai Shuichi completely put aside those distracting thoughts.
Thinking of waiting for his wife and family at home, he secretly hid the Noah organization and Miyano Akemi in his heart.
Soon, Shuichi Akai drove away from the Metropolitan Police Department and embarked on his journey home.
Cars drive slowly on the bustling streets of Tokyo.
Home is getting closer.
The past was getting further and further away from him.
Today seems to be the same as usual, another ordinary and happy day.
but
Just when Shuichi Akai was driving to a congested intersection, he stopped in the traffic and waited for the traffic light.
Suddenly, he heard a voice:
"Wait, I'll be there soon."
"The 'mission' was successfully completed, don't worry."
Akai Shuichi had not heard this voice for more than two years.
But he still reacted immediately:
"Belmod?!"
Akai Shuichi followed the sound and looked:
Yes, it’s really Belmode!
The Witch with a Thousand Faces, whom the FBI and CIA had been tracking for two years without a trace, was driving another car and parked next to his car!
Through the other party's half-open front window, Shuichi Akai could see more clearly:
This is Belmode himself.
She didn't even change her appearance, she just wore her iconic long silver hair and wore her unique mysterious smile. She was clearly sitting in the driver's seat of the car, making phone calls with a focused expression.
"Belmod, it's really her"
"What has she been doing for the past two years, and where is she going now?"
Akai Shuichi instinctively became vigilant again.
Past experience told him that the appearance of Belmod often heralds disaster and death.
She used to be the organization's killing tool and was known as the witch.
What now? Had she really been at peace during the two years she disappeared?
Also, what happened to Mingmei, who left with her?
Akai Shuichi thought of Akemi again.
So he carefully raised his ears and tried to eavesdrop on Belmode's phone call.
But Belmode didn't notice him at all.
She was still calling her phone defenselessly:
"Everything is fine."
"With me taking action, can there be any problems?"
"Oh, are you asking our 'Mr. VIP'?"
"Don't worry, he's in my car now."
Belmod's tone was very calm when he spoke.
But her special temperament that is mysterious and tinged with danger is always revealed in her smile.
This made Akai Shuichi, who knew her, slightly uneasy:
"'Mission', 'Mr. VIP'?"
He chewed carefully the words Belmod just mentioned on the phone.
"Is it possible that she is on a mission targeting some important person?"
"The so-called Mr. VIP is her mission target?"
In the past, when they were doing dirty work in the black organization, they used to call their assassination targets this way.
So Akai Shuichi instinctively felt that what Belmode was doing was not a good thing:
"She also said that 'Mr. VIP' is in her car now."
"But."
But Akai Hide looked to one side and could only see Belmode through the other party's car window.
It was clear that only Belmode was sitting in the car, why did she say that "Mr. VIP" was in her car?
This question is actually easy to answer.
Because based on Akai Shuichi’s past experience working in a black organization:
Those "VIPs" kidnapped by the organization generally have no chance to sit in the carriage——
They will only be kidnapped by organized killers, knocked unconscious and stuffed into the trunk.
really
As soon as Akai Shuichi made this guess, he heard Belmode say into the phone:
"This kid is really good at making trouble."
"It took me a lot of effort to get him to sleep properly."
"Oh, it's true that I have never been so tired when dealing with Akai Shuichi before."
"This" Akai Shuichi is even more certain:
As expected, Belmode returned to her old profession and engaged in the evil business of kidnapping and murder.
But now the black organizations have been destroyed.
Who is she working for?
"Noah Organization!"
Akai Shuichi's long-standing worries finally broke out at this moment:
The Noah organization is indeed not as noble, great, selfless and free from vulgar taste as it seems.
Behind the scenes, it must also have a group of killers who specialize in doing dirty work.
Belmode is probably one of them.
And if Belmode is still doing these underhanded things for the Noah organization, what about Mingmei who disappeared with her?
Miyano Akemi, will she also be firmly controlled by Mr. Noah?
Thinking that Minmei might still be living in darkness and terror, Akai Shuichi felt heartbroken for no reason.
Perhaps, he shouldn't have let her go with Lin Xinyi in the first place.
Lin Xinyi and Belmod probably brought Mingmei into another fire pit.
Thinking of this, Mr. Akai could no longer sit still.
The green light turned on and the traffic flowed slowly.
Belmode stepped on the accelerator lightly and was about to disappear from his eyes again.
Akai Shuichi finally made a decision:
"Stop!"
A coldness flashed in his eyes.
The engine underfoot roared.
The car rushed straight up like an arrow, and then turned sharply in the center of the intersection.
Finally, he stopped in front of Belmod's car.
"Hello!!"
"How on earth do you drive, you bastard?!"
"Do you know there is one in the car?"
Belmod's angry shouts immediately sounded.
She had never been so angry before, at least not in Akai Shuichi's impression.
But now, she was like an ordinary person, and she instantly lost her cool after being stopped by a car.
Akai Shuichi felt vaguely strange.
But he still opened the door and got out of the car immediately, blocking in front of Belmod's car:
"Belmod, long time no see."
"It's you?!"
Belmod's anger ended abruptly.
She was slightly stunned at first, and then looked up and down with a subtle look at the long-lost "old friend" in front of her:
"It turns out to be the FBI's ace, Mr. Shuichi Akai."
"Why, what do you want from me?"
Belmod smiled softly and said in a calm tone:
"If you want to arrest me, then I have to remind you——"
"I have obtained a pardon from Mr. President."
"According to the laws of the United States, I am at most an ex-convict, not a criminal."
"Huh?" Akai Shuichi frowned:
This scene was different from what he had imagined.
He thought that Belmod would be nervous and hostile because of his appearance, and even trigger a fierce fight on the spot.
Didn't expect
The other party actually brought out His Excellency the Commander-in-Chief with just one mouthful.
Even openly say that he is not a criminal?
"Not a criminal?"
"ridiculous!"
Akai Shuichi does not believe that Belmode will change his ways:
"Isn't what you are doing now a crime?"
"Me?" Unexpectedly, Belmod showed a surprised and innocent expression: "Am I committing a crime now?"
"Where did I commit a crime?"
At this time, Akai Shuichi replied with a stern face:
"Open your trunk, Belmode."
“We’ve all worked in organizations—”
"You know what 'Mr. VIP' means."
"You" Belmode was speechless for a long time.
She was about to say something subtle, when suddenly
"Woah woah woah woah."
A cry like an air raid siren rang from the back seat of the car.
"What?!" Akai Shuichi's expression froze: "That's..."
"Damn."
Belmode glared at him unhappily:
"You woke up our 'Mr. VIP'."
"I managed to get him to sleep."
With that said, Belmode pushed the door open and got out of the car with a look of helplessness, and then opened the rear door.
As soon as the rear door is opened, what comes into view is a baby carrier fixed on the back seat.
Because the carrier basket was placed too low, Akai Shuichi had not seen through the car window before that there was another person lying in the back seat.
A chubby little baby.
He looks about a year old.
"This" Akai Shuichi said to himself blankly: "Is this the 'Mr. VIP' you are talking about?"
"yes."
"Why, isn't he still very important?"
Belmode glared at Akai Shuichi again angrily.
And when she lowered her head to look at the little baby, her expression quietly softened:
"Be good don't cry, don't cry."
"Come and let me kiss youmuma!"
Belmod picked up the child with a doting look on his face, his movements as gentle as if he were holding some rare treasure.
Akai Shuichi has never seen such a gentle Belmode.
I have never seen such a happy Belmode.
She is no longer some witch with a thousand faces.
Just a mother with her children.
It seems that Belmod's new job in the past two years is
Housewife with baby.
"Wait. Is this your child?"
Akai Shuichi was even more surprised:
How old is Belmod? How can he still follow life?
"Hey, what's your expression?"
Belmod glanced at him in disgust, but his expression quickly became complicated:
"No, I'm not his mother."
"I would rather have a child of my own."
Loneliness flashed in her eyes.
But that happy love quickly emerged in front of the child:
"But he's also my child."
"After all, Shinichi's child is my child."
Belmod stared intently at the whimpering baby in his arms, his eyes as gentle as water.
"Shinichi's child."
"Is this Lin Xinyi's child?"
Akai Shuichi suddenly felt at a loss:
Lin Xinyi's child.
Then the mother of this child, isn’t it?
"He's an old acquaintance of yours."
"That annoying Miyano girl."
Belmod gave him a narrow smile while coaxing the child in his arms.
Akai Shuichi: "."
He was silent for a while, as if he couldn't even form words.
"By the way, Mr. Akai, let me tell you something:"
"Our family has moved back."
Belmode smiled meaningfully.
The family did move back.
Because Noah's Ark has already fulfilled Karasuma Renye's wish through the technology of virtual world and data immortality.
Rulers from all over the world are united around "Mr. Noah" because of the interests of eternal life.
In fact, the Noah organization is no longer a rival to intelligence agencies such as the FBI and CIA.
But their superiors.
Lin Xinyi and Miyano Shiho can finally live openly and openly under the sun.
So they're back.
"We are living in Miss Asai's villa now——"
"That villa has been bought by Shinichi."
Belmod sent an invitation to Akai Shuichi with a kind face:
"The reason why we came back to live here is because we wanted to come back and live with our friends."
"Mr. Akai, you are also our old friend."
"If you have the chance, be sure to come and sit at home."
Akai Shuichi was still silent.
He didn't listen carefully to what Belmode said.
He just lowered his head and looked at his wedding ring.
turn out to be
It's not that uncomfortable.
Akai Shuichi had thought about how he felt when he saw Mingmei and Lin Xinyi's child countless times.
He thought he would be sad, sad, or even unable to accept it.
But two years have passed, and now I see this baby who has a vague shadow of Mingmei.
His mood was very calm.
It turned out that without realizing it, he had let go of the past.
As for Belmod and the Noah organization, he didn't want to worry about it. After all, Belmod took the initiative to report his address and even invited him to visit. It seemed that he had a backer behind him and was not afraid of him checking.
"Belmod."
Akai Shuichi slowly raised his head:
"Say hello to Mingmei for me——"
"Just tell me and wish her happiness."
With that said, Akai Shuichi turned around and left.
"Huh?" Belmod was a little surprised: "Don't you want to ask me some more questions?"
"No."
Akai Shuichi smiled in relief:
"There are still people waiting for me at home."
