Ke Xue: Mastering Observation Haki at the start

“Nothing to be shocked about.” Jia Chen handed a handkerchief to Ai Haibara. “I’m very strong, so I need to find someone to cut me.”

"Tch... I don't believe it." Ai Haibara rolled her eyes slightly and put the handkerchief in her pocket.

"By the way, you're coming along too," Jia Chen said.

"Mmm..." Ai Haibara had just wanted to say she wanted to go too, but it seemed that Gatsuki hadn't abandoned her... She picked up her burgundy backpack, slung it over her shoulder, and walked towards the entrance in a rather cheerful mood. "I'm going to school."

"I'll give you a ride, I have something to do." Jia Chen stood up and took the car keys...

Twenty minutes later.

····Requesting flowers···

After dropping Ai Haibara off at school, Gatsu drove to the organization's training base.

After disguising himself in the car, he got out, closed the door, and walked towards the base.

As soon as I entered, I saw Vodka scolding his underlings.

"What are you all good for? You haven't done what I asked you to do yet?" Vodka's sunglasses reflected an unbearable light again, as if they only reflected light when he was intimidating people.

"No, Brother Vodka, we've looked for them, but they've vanished into thin air."

"Yeah, yeah, do you think it's possible that she shrank?"

"Vodka's black-clad henchman across from him said tremblingly."

"Heh~" Vodka's lips curled into a grin. "Is this your excuse for running away? It's nothing new. Just wait for your wages to be docked!"

After reprimanding his underlings, Vodka glanced around and saw Jia Chen out of the corner of his eye...

.....

"Galiano, what brings you here?" Vodka walked over and asked.

"I've come to see Shi Kaobing. There are some things I need to discuss." Jia Chen took out a cigarette from his pocket, put it in his mouth, and lit it.

"Oh... then I'll take you there, she's in the training room." Vodka nodded and walked towards the training room. "By the way, Galiano, do you have any news about Sherry?"

交流5)3{90柒912:6

"No." Jia Chen walked indifferently to the side.

Upon joining the organization, he was given the mission to find Sherry.

"Oh... okay, Scrooge is in the training room." Vodka scratched his head, glanced around, and cautiously said to Gachen, "Also, it's best not to go looking for Big Brother."

"What's wrong with Gin?" Jia Chen asked, frowning.

“Shirley has been missing for two months now, and we haven’t heard a word from her. She got scolded and had her wages docked,” Vodka whispered. “Apparently, our team’s funds have all been deducted.”

"So... how have you been operating these past few days?" Jia Chen wasn't surprised that the action team's funds had been withheld...

After all, Shirley was a genius researcher, and most importantly, she knew the main person in charge of aptx4869.

After he disappears, who else should be punished if not Gin?

Are you suggesting we blame vodka?

"It's said that our eldest brother is supporting the family by paying out of his own pocket," Vodka said in a low voice. "Our monthly salaries are all paid by our eldest brother out of his own pocket."

Jia Chen: "...

It seems Gin provided the funds to keep the Tokyo group afloat.

Come to think of it, Gin doesn't seem to have many high-end places to go. He usually eats cold bento boxes and takes care of his old cars.

This organization is truly taking "it's my home" to the extreme!

P.S.: As the new month begins, I wish everyone a happy May Day. The author would also like to ask for your monthly votes.

Chapter 88: Gin is having a tough time (Happy Labor Day everyone!)

Upon reaching the training room, the door opened, and the two went inside.

With the sound of a sniper rifle...

The simulator's right eye was instantly blown off.

Sensing the movement at the gate, Scrooge stepped forward and greeted the two men.

“You seem to be adapting quite well here,” Jia Chen said calmly, looking at Shi Kaobing.

Scrooge didn't seem that averse to it, after all, he had been kidnapped by him.

“It’s alright…” Shi Kaobing nodded, not understanding why Jia Chen would ask such a question.

Aside from Gin's cold demeanor, everyone else here is very friendly and speaks politely. Work hours are flexible; you can do whatever you want. If you want any dynasty treasures, just hand them over to the intelligence team, and they'll get the information. And the ammunition for training sniper rifles seems to be free; it's like they can get it anytime soon.

Daily training.

Moreover, Vodka had told herself that she could secretly get the organization to reimburse her for buying luxury goods without spending any money, and she loved it here.

"How's your learning of the disguise techniques and business knowledge I taught you coming along?" Jia Chen asked, sitting on the sofa next to him, stubbing out his cigarette in the ashtray and pouring himself a cup of tea.

"Business knowledge is alright, but I'm learning about disguise techniques every day," Shi Kaobing gave an ambiguous answer.

When it comes to business, Scroobing is still able to keep his composure.

Before joining the organization, how did she manage to acquire dynastic treasures and information about them across various regions? She must have possessed considerable wealth...

“Not bad.” Jia Chen nodded and explained the game type and method to Shi Kaobing.

"? That sounds pretty fun." Vodka raised an eyebrow. "Galiano, do you have any extra cards? Don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone. I, Vodka, am known for my integrity."

小说5)3$9.079壹2-6>

"Okay." Jia Chen nodded.

After giving his instructions, Jia Chen opened his laptop at the base.

Meanwhile... Gin is on the phone with Rum.

“I told you, I would find her.” Gin’s voice was somewhat cold.

"You got a Gin, and that's your answer?" Rum's voice mocked from the other end of the phone. "And you said 'I'll find her.' Blindly trusting your own judgment, how cute."

"So much time has passed, and there hasn't been a single word? As Sherry's boss, this is clearly your mistake!"

"I don't want to say anything more. That gentleman has lost his patience. Since Sherry escaped on her own, kill her without mercy!"

"You'd better watch yourself. Oh, and by the way, your Outstanding Model Employee Award is gone!"

After saying that, Rum hung up the phone.

Gin's expression was icy cold, and his fingers gripping his phone were turning blue.

The task force is currently self-sufficient, and since Scrooge came in, the expenses have increased by a quarter!

However, Gin couldn't say anything, after all, Scrooge was quite capable.

The door opened, and Gin walked in, but his face was unusually cold, like a volcano about to erupt.

Upon seeing his older brother, Vodka quickly put away the cards in his hand.

"You don't look well, what's wrong?" Jia Chen sat on the sofa, drinking tea, and looked at Qin Jiu.

"About Sherry," Gin replied coldly, walked over, sat on the sofa, lit a cigarette, and exhaled deeply. "Something's strange."

We've been searching for a long time recently, but haven't found any information.

Even the organization's intelligence network couldn't extract any information from them.

Galliano turned the lab into ruins after Sherry escaped...

He had his doubts, though, about whether Galliano had killed or rescued Sherry.

If it's the latter, then it's really not a big deal.

Judging from that gentleman's view of Jia Chen, he would probably treat Shirley as Jia Chen's private property, something to be studied without further ado.

However, Galliano's behavior suggests the former.

"Strange?" Jia Chen asked.

“I can’t imagine how Sherry escaped from the gas chamber,” Gin replied coldly, his gaze icy. “It’s too bizarre, and our intelligence network has no information about Sherry.”

"Don't even think about things you can't imagine," Jia Chen said, leaning back on the sofa.

Gin: "...

“Yeah, bro,” Vodka said from the side, “It’s lunchtime now, let’s go eat first. I heard there’s a really popular Western restaurant.”

As they spoke, his gaze, hidden behind his sunglasses, would occasionally dart towards Jia Chen.

Jia Chen was speechless.

If I didn't have Observation Haki, how would I know what vodka means?

However... he sensed it but didn't know it.

“Shut up, Vodka!” Gin gave Vodka a cold look.

The organization is currently facing some financial difficulties, and in the long run, the funds are far from sufficient.

Although having a meal isn't a big deal, ever since I ate at the French restaurant last time...

Chianti, Cohen, and Calvados all ate at a French restaurant, which they used as a canteen, and the expenses were even reimbursed by the organization!
