Chapter 42: The Chatty Hirota Masami, Li Ze Was About to Crack!
Hirota Masami, with a bewildered look on her face.
She was completely stunned.
Yes!
Even when she was attending university, she was using the name Hirota Masami in the outside world.
Miyano Akemi.
Only her sister, the Black Organization, and her beloved Daikun knew this name.
But, what then?
Firstly.
Her sister would absolutely not leak this information, and Daikun, as an FBI detective, would most likely not leak such a thing.
So, obviously.
The only remaining source would be the Black Organization.
The question arose!
The fact that they were able to obtain this kind of intelligence from within the organization, in itself, spoke volumes.
At the very least.
They knew more about the organization than she did.
Under these circumstances, they dared to talk about revenge, which was enough to explain everything.
Looking at Li Ze, who was calm and composed, she pondered for a long time before attempting to speak: “You, can you really confront the organization?”
“To completely wipe out the organization, that’s absolutely impossible.” Li Ze shrugged, his tone calm as he said: “But just protecting you, that’s no problem!”
“What do you say?”
“Are you willing to make a deal with me?”
Li Ze, with an indifferent expression.
He reiterated his purpose once again.
And, this time.
Hirota Masami, began to take it seriously.
After thinking carefully for a long time, she tentatively spoke: “You should know about my sister, right?”
“Miyano Shiho, of course I know.” Li Ze casually said: “I can save her and provide her with protection.”
“But she has to join my company and work for me!”
“Of course, I’m a legitimate company.”
“We’ll sign a formal employment agreement, and there won’t be any restrictions on her personal freedom.”
Honestly speaking.
After hearing these words, Hirota Masami wanted to refuse.
After all.
Didn’t she put in so much effort just to gain freedom?
If, after escaping the organization with great difficulty, she was controlled by Li Ze, then what was the point of doing this foolish thing?
But…
Li Ze’s final statement, however, eased her mind.
A legitimate company?
This was something she could consider!
“Alright, fine.” Hirota Masami, with a hint of helplessness: “But…”
However.
Before she could finish, she was interrupted by Li Ze.
“I said, don’t get carried away!”
“Even if I really set you and your sister free, can you guarantee your safety?”
“Remember, your organization is not to be trifled with, they have bases all over the world.”
“Without my protection, where can you go?”
Hirota Masami, instantly dumbfounded.
Her mind, blank.
“All over the world, they have bases?” She was full of disbelief.
Hearing these words, Li Ze couldn’t help but cover his face and said: “You don’t even know the basic situation of the organization?”
“I don’t know!” Hirota Masami, helplessly shaking her head: “I’m just a peripheral member.”
Li Ze, helpless.
But he still briefly introduced the organization, then rolled his eyes: “Without my protection, wherever you run, you’re dead!”
“But, they promised me.” Hirota Masami, looking terrible.
Li Ze countered: “You wouldn’t really believe Gin’s lies, would you? Do you think the organization really needs that ten billion?”
But, regarding this.
Hirota Masami, still wanted to refute.
However, unfortunately.
Before she could speak again, she was immediately interrupted by Li Ze.
“Alright, stop it.”
“While I want revenge on the organization, it’s not like I can’t do it without you.”
“The fact that I’m willing to talk to you now, don’t you think you’re really that important?”
“You’re able to stay alive in the organization until now, it’s purely because your sister is protecting you.”
“Otherwise, you would have been dead long ago!”
“I’m willing to talk to you for so long, it’s naturally for the same reason.”
“So I’m asking one last time, are you willing to make a deal with me?”
“If you’re not, I’ll leave now.”
“You two sisters, just wait for your death.”
Hirota Masami, as if struck by lightning.
Clearly.
She had previously genuinely believed that the reason they were able to survive until now was because of her persistence and dedication.
But now.
Li Ze’s words shattered her confidence, making her realize that she, after all this time, was the one dragging them down.
Now, the fact that he was willing to talk to her was also due to his regard for her sister.
After pondering for a moment.
She took a deep breath and said solemnly.
“One last question.”
“Since the organization is so powerful, how can you guarantee that you can protect us?”
“As long as you can answer this question, then my sister and I will follow you.”
Yes.
She had already realized.
She had no right to negotiate with Li Ze.
But, at the same time.
This matter was too important to her, she had to know something.
And, in response.
Li Ze nodded, his face regaining its composure, then he calmly said.
“Because, I’m a tycoon!”
“I have a PMC backing me, so I naturally don’t fear the organization.”
“This PMC is contracted to the US Department of Defense, its members are all made up of retired officers from Delta Force, SEALs, and other special forces units. They are active in war-torn regions, dealing with forces like the military and local militias on a daily basis.”
“If I want to, I can mobilize a special forces team at any time.”
“Furthermore, there is a permanent detachment stationed in Japan.”
“Armed security, understand?”
“Even if the organization uses Apaches to hunt you down, the detachment stationed at our group has Stinger and other man-portable air defense missiles.”
“By the way, a reminder.”
“Don’t expect your Daikun, Akai Shuichi, he’s an FBI agent, this kind of intelligence, organization members have to follow their leaders’ instructions.”
“Even if he wants to take you two sisters to the FBI, I don’t recommend you accept.”
“Because there are also organization moles within the FBI!”
Yes.
Since he had already opened up, he didn’t mind saying a little more.
He directly dispelled her desire to seek refuge in the FBI, after all, he really didn’t want to let go of someone like Miyano Shiho, a research scientist.
Honestly speaking, he wasn’t interested in APTX-4869.
Because.
He wanted Miyano Shiho to engage in some reliable medical research.
He could easily create a medical empire by simply creating a few drugs.
“Alright, I agree.”
“Whatever you want me to do, I’ll listen to you.”
“But, Shiho!”
“You have to rescue Shiho!”
Hirota Masami, hastily said.
Her eyes were filled with pleading, it was obvious that the only person she could rely on now was Li Ze.
And, in response.
Li Ze rolled his eyes, couldn’t help but helplessly say.
“Alright, I know!”
“You don’t need to say it, I’ll do my best.”
“After all, to be honest.”
“It’s your sister that I really care about.”
“As for, you…”
“You don’t need to do anything, just follow me.”
“That ridiculous ten-billion robbery case, you have nothing to do with it, you know?”
“Anyway, your accomplices, Gin will take care of them all tonight.”
“As for, your suspicions.”
“I’ll handle the Metropolitan Police Department.”
“Now pack up and come with me.”
“Finally, one more thing.”
“From now on, you don’t need to use a fake name, just go back to Miyano Akemi.”
