Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 149 Who understands the pain of visiting the graves of the four of them all by myself?
“Judy, someone is following us, it looks like one of your students.”

Shuichi Akai glanced behind him discreetly and immediately noticed that the two girls following him were wearing the uniforms of Jodie School.

He had even met one of the female students once before.

He also knew the other girl, but he only knew her from her profile.

Sonoko Suzuki, the second daughter of the Suzuki zaibatsu, was someone he naturally needed to know.

As for Ran, he met her a year ago. They met on a rainy evening when he was chasing the silver-haired serial killer and then he encountered Ran and Shinichi Kudo.

Xiao Lan was crying at the time.

As for the reason, he didn't know and didn't want to know, since he had a mission to complete at the time.

However, he later lost track of his mission objective.

Upon hearing this, Judy nodded and sighed, "They are indeed my students. They probably saw me with you at the school gate and assumed you were my boyfriend, so they secretly followed us."

After saying that, she subconsciously glanced at Shuichi Akai.

But when he found that Shuichi Akai did not react at all, he couldn't help but sigh.

Indeed, we can never go back!

She simply thought that the breakup a few years ago was due to mission requirements, but she never expected that their relationship would never be the same again after this breakup.

Although they are still good friends, they have become quite estranged, and she can also feel that she no longer holds a place in Shuichi Akai's heart.

The woman currently occupying Shuichi Akai's heart is his cousin.

Akemi Miyano is the girl I met at the restaurant today.

This was her first time meeting Akemi Miyano, and in this way no less.

"Hmm." Akai Shuichi nodded, not asking about the matter further, and changed the subject.

"You suddenly asked me to meet you at the school gate, did you find out something?"

They had originally planned to meet directly at the store, but this morning, Judy suddenly called and asked him to meet somewhere else.

They probably knew that Akemi Miyano and Bourbon were in that restaurant.

Judy happened to know both of these people.

Judy glanced at Shuichi Akai, feeling dejected, but could only force herself to stay alert: "This morning I went to the store with Natsuhiro Kitahara, and that's when I discovered Akemi Miyano, who was using the alias Masami Hirota, and Bourbon, who was using the alias Tooru Amuro."

"I think these two people appearing together might be a trap for you, so I want to eat somewhere else."

Judy isn't stupid; she knows what it means for two people to get together as members of an organization. It couldn't have been an accident that they became colleagues.

This is simply not possible.

Moreover, she had seen the text message that Miyano Akemi sent to Akai Shuichi, and the content of the text message was exactly like the last text message sent before she died.

But now, Akemi Miyano is still alive and well, which means that there was something wrong with the text message she sent back then.

It's possible that it wasn't posted by Akemi Miyano herself, but rather by a member of the organization through her.

Besides, there is another possibility, which is...
Akemi Miyano did it voluntarily; she willingly cooperated with the organization to lure Shuichi Akai to Tokyo and then kill him!

If that's the case, then Judy probably understands Miyano Akemi's motives.

It all boils down to Shuichi Akai abandoning Akemi Miyano, leaving her on the brink of death and nearly killed by the organization.

Judy could understand this situation and knew that Shuichi Akai had taken advantage of Akemi Miyano, which led to this incident.

Miyano Akemi's revenge is understandable.

But she never expected that the kind-hearted Miyano Akemi would turn out like this, all because of the despicable black organization.

None of this would have happened without this organization.

Shuichi Akai wouldn't break up with her because he's going undercover, and Akemi Miyano wouldn't retaliate against Shuichi Akai by luring him here to kill him.

Most importantly, she won't lose her boyfriend, Shuichi Akai.

It's all the fault of the Black Organization!

Upon hearing this, Shuichi Akai said calmly, "Actually, I already found out. I know that Akemi is perfectly fine and is even cooperating with the organization, waiting for me to take the bait."

"Then why are you still going?"

Upon hearing this, Judy's eyes widened, her face filled with disbelief.

Why would the usually wise Shuichi Akai make such a foolish choice? The other party is trying to kill you!

She couldn't understand Shuichi Akai's inner thoughts at all.

"There are some things I have to face sooner or later; running away won't solve anything." A hint of sadness flashed in Akai Hide's eyes.

He could understand Miyano Akemi's betrayal, but he was still very upset and felt like his heart was being torn apart.

But this sorrow was only momentary, and he forgot about it in the next instant.

"So I have to meet with Akemi Miyano, and besides, it's not impossible to turn enemies into friends."

"And Bourbon might not be what you imagine."

"Some things can only be explained after we meet in person."

He knew Akemi Miyano; she was a gentle and kind woman who could be persuaded.

Besides, Amuro Tooru is almost certainly one of their own, even if he's not from the FBI, he's practically one of their own.

Besides, Scotland's death really had nothing to do with him. He didn't do anything, and Scotland committed suicide to protect his family and Amuro Tooru!
He was merely following orders, and it's unreasonable for Amuro Tooru to pin this crime on himself.

However, he understood why Amuro Tooru would pin the blame on him, but while he understood, he didn't agree. "Are you crazy?!" Judy exclaimed in shock. "Even if Bourbon is different, he's still a member of the organization!"

Shuichi Akai going to see Akemi Miyano is one thing, they're relatives after all, and they were boyfriend and girlfriend before, so it's unlikely there will be any major problems.

But Bourbon is different; he is a true member of the organization and has a grudge against Shuichi Akai.

Bourbon has never forgotten Scotland's death. If he has the chance to capture Shuichi Akai, he will not hesitate to take him to the organization to claim credit.

This way, one can gain merit and advance in status.

Faced with a choice between personal feelings and national interests, Bourbon chose the latter.

He could even kill the daughter of his first love!

Of course, Judy didn't know Bourbon's true identity; if she had, she probably wouldn't have thought that way.

"Judy, trust my judgment." Shuichi Akai was as confident as ever.

However, he did not reveal his speculation about Bourbon's true identity.

In any case, Bourbon was a member who had infiltrated the local community, and the fewer people who knew his true identity, the more likely it was to be discovered.

So he didn't plan to tell anyone else, not even Judy, for Bourbon's safety.

Compared to his personal feud with Bourbon, he was more willing to eliminate the cancerous organization.

After all, his father had also died at their hands, and as his son, he had to avenge his father.

This was his promise to his elderly mother.

"you"

Judy seemed about to say something, but was interrupted by Shuichi Akai.

“I will protect myself, and if things become unbearable, I will withdraw in time, so you don’t need to worry about my safety.”

He understood Judy and knew what she was worried about.

Hearing this, Jodie looked at Shuichi Akai's serious expression and couldn't help but sigh: "Whatever."

"Anyway, I'm no longer anyone to you, so I have no right to tell you what to do."

After saying that, Judy quickened her pace and headed towards the Kitahara Chinese Restaurant.

Shuichi Akai watched Jodie's retreating figure and thought to himself, "I'm sorry, Jodie."

"It's time to sever our past relationship. Now we're just comrades-in-arms fighting side by side."

Although Judy is very nice, he no longer has the same feelings for her as before.

So, Judy, stop staring at me. I'm not worth your effort.

"Hey, it seems like Ms. Judy said something to that man and then got angry. What exactly did she say?!"

Sonoko followed behind the two, but didn't dare to get close at all, and didn't even see Shuichi Akai's face.

Now, it seems that a small conflict has broken out between the two of them because of something, but she has no idea what it is, which makes her a little anxious.

After all, she's the gossip queen of Teitan High School!
"It's too far away, I can't hear it at all, and this direction seems to be the direction of my house."

"Oh right, this morning, Ms. Judy said she was inviting someone to dinner and had even reserved a table at Ms. Kitahara's restaurant," Ran suddenly remembered.

"Huh?" Sonoko turned to look at Ran, her fists clenched. "Why are you only telling me this now? It's such important information!"

"I forgot!"

"In that case, let's head to our destination now: Kitahara-sensei's restaurant!"

Sonoko walked excitedly and confidently toward Ran's house.

"Sonoko is really something."

Xiao Lan muttered something to herself and followed.

ten minutes later
Jodie and Shuichi Akai appeared in the restaurant.

Meanwhile, Kitahara Natsuyu had already arrived at the restaurant before them, his purpose being to gossip after get off work that day.

Gossip about Jodie, Shuichi Akai, Akemi Miyano, and Tooru Amuro.

In the story, Jodie is in love with Shuichi Akai, while Shuichi Akai can't forget Akemi Miyano, and the two are cousins. Akemi Miyano wants to rescue her sister and take revenge.

As for Amuro Tooru, he also has a grudge against Akai Shuichi.

After all, he could never forget the death of Morofushi Kagemitsu.

Most importantly, if Morofushi Kagemitsu hadn't died, he wouldn't have had to go to their graves alone.

It hurts, it hurts so much!

and
When Jodie and Shuichi Akai entered the store, the atmosphere inside subtly changed.

"Shuichi Akai and Jodie?!"

"So this woman is also an FBI agent!" Amuro Tooru narrowed his eyes, a cold glint in them.

"Akai Shuichi!!!"

A complex look flashed across Miyano Akemi's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by a resolute expression.

Since you are ruthless, then don't blame me for being unjust.

My silly cousin!
