Chapter 223 Okino Yoko's Answer (22)

Masumi Sera really didn't expect this.

I had clearly exposed Yoko Okino's behavior in person.

And all the important things she had concealed were brought to the table in front of her.

As a result, what Yoko Okino was concerned about was that she did not add a title when addressing Akikawa Sousuke.

"I remember Miss Sera, when you used to call Xiaokong, you always called him 'Mr. Akikawa', right?"

Okino Yoko stared at Sera Masumi seriously and asked again.

Usually only people who are close to each other, or when elders are addressing younger people, will omit the titles when calling each other, or call each other by their names.

And now, the way Sera Masumi addressed Akikawa Sousuke was obviously much more intimate than what Okino Yoko had heard before.

"No, what does this have to do with what happened this time?"

"Of course it is related. It just suddenly feels like Miss Sera, you seem to be particularly concerned about Xiaokong now."

Yoko Okino poured the milk into her coffee cup and then stirred it gently with a small metal spoon.

In stark contrast to Sera Masumi who just showed an indifferent attitude,

At this moment, Yoko Okino's eyes were full of cunning when she looked at Masumi Sera.

However, Okino Yoko did not give Sera Masumi time to reply, and directly said:
"If this is the case, it seems that it is not impossible to tell Miss Sera the truth."

"Wait wait, did you misunderstand something?"

Masumi Sera hurriedly called out to Yoko Okino, who was obviously starting to think in a strange direction, and unconsciously raised her voice.

"Maybe it really is a misunderstanding."

Yoko Okino stared at Masumi Sera opposite her, her eyes full of amusement.

"But Miss Sera, aren't you also misunderstanding something?"

"From what you said, it seems that I knew that the people who were hunting down Mom and Xiaokong were extremely powerful, but I deliberately lured you, Miss Sera, to investigate."

"It was you, Miss Sera, who asked me for information about the car accident, but I never asked you to investigate."

Masumi Sera was gagged by Yoko Okino's words.

The situation at that time was indeed as Yoko Okino described.

It was after I heard that Yoko Okino had missed a filming last year and investigated the dates of her absence that I came to think that Yoko Okino was related to the car accident.

Although from Sera Masumi's current perspective.

It is very likely that the phone call at that time was made intentionally for me to hear by this scheming artist in front of me.

She knew that she could link the information revealed in her few words to last year's car accident.

That's why I made that phone call on purpose.

However, such a thing without evidence is impossible to prove.

Just as Yoko Okino said, she really didn't ask me for anything.

Everything is my own spontaneous behavior.

"Besides."

Okino Yoko spoke again.

"Last year's car accident case was handled by Ms. Sera, helping the Metropolitan Police Department, right?"

"Based on Xiaokong's physical condition and injuries at the time, he should not be able to withstand the interrogation of the police and detectives, right?"

"I heard that Xiaokong was even considered a suspect for a while. Does this have anything to do with Miss Sera?"

Okino Yoko's words once again left Sera Masumi speechless.

One of the important reasons why she decided to find out the real culprit of the car accident was because she had mistaken Akikawa Sosuke as the murderer.

indeed.

One of the important reasons why Akikawa Sosuke was considered the murderer was that he had been hiding the fact that he had taken sleeping pills before the car accident.

However, Masumi Sera only found out after getting to know Akikawa Sousuke better.

Akikawa Sosuke did this to increase the suspicion of the real murderer. Although Akikawa Sosuke was at fault for this matter, he was also responsible for not being able to identify the half-life of triazolam in time.

Therefore, Masumi Sera wanted to make up for the mistake he made and express his apology to Sosuke Akikawa.

Just when Masumi Sera remained silent because of Yoko Okino's remarks.

She suddenly realized that Yoko Okino seemed to have taken back the initiative in her speech.

Masumi Sera narrowed her unique deep green eyes slightly, and shot her family's sharp gaze at Yoko Okino who was standing opposite her.

"Ms. Yoko, I don't deny what you said."

"But please answer my question."

"The reason why Ms. Ryoko was targeted by the organization, and the consequences after Akikawa revealed his old name, Okino."

"Don't say you don't know these things."

"If this incident leads to something irreversible, it will all be your fault, Miss Yoko, for hiding the truth!"

Sera Masumi said to Okino Yoko.

This isn't just for Akikawa Sosuke.

The main reason she wanted to know this was to speed up her and her mother's progress in fighting against the organization.

Masumi Sera found that after he said this, Yoko Okino fell silent again.

The artist in front of him, who was perfect in both appearance and figure, was staring at him quietly with her azure eyes, the same as Akikawa Sorasuke's.

Yoko Okino did not continue to play dumb.

However, she didn't seem to have any intention of speaking.

Masumi Sera suddenly realized the difference between Okino Yoko and Akikawa Sosuke.

I didn't have the foundation to make Yoko Okino trust me.

However, the information about the organization involved was too extensive, and just saying the name might attract the other party's attention.

That's why Yoko Okino couldn't just open her mouth and tell the truth.

"Ms. Yoko, I can understand how you feel."

"I also have family members who were harmed by the organization, so I am eager to fight against that organization."

Masumi Sera lowered his voice and whispered to Yoko Okino.

After hearing what Sera Masumi said, Okino Yoko spoke again.

"So this is ah."

"If that's the case, perhaps Miss Sera can be trusted."

"So you believe me now?"

The fact that Yoko Okino believed him so easily made Masumi Sera feel a little puzzled.

She originally thought that she would have to argue with Yoko Okino for a long time before the big star in front of her would speak.

'Did she see that I wasn't lying, or was this another part of her plan?'

Sera Masumi was thinking in his heart, and then he heard Okino Yoko say:

"Mom, she was once a member of that organization."

"It is so!"

Masumi Sera couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

It seems that my judgment that Akikawa and his mother had been hunted by the organization for so many years was not wrong.

"As for what Miss Sera mentioned, the question of the old surname."

"This is an extremely fatal problem for both my dead mother and Xiaokong, so it must be concealed."

"I believe that with your intelligence, Miss Sera, you can already understand what I mean by revealing this."

Okino Yoko said to Sera Masumi with a serious expression.
