Whose personality mask's power comes from the heroic spirit?

She really didn't think that the other people around Taiyi were easy to get along with.

Although there were three faces she recognized among them...such as the daughter of Kogoro Mori whom she had met before, the queen of the legal world, Eri Kissing, and the second daughter of the Suzuki family, Suzuki Sonoko.

But the others were all unfamiliar faces.

It would be difficult for Bourbon and I to have a falling out here.

Otherwise, you will be thrown into the sea to feed the fish.

For the first time, Hondou Eikai felt that the gun in his hand was unable to protect his own safety.

Seeing Hondou Eikai admit defeat on his own initiative, Furukaya Rei was also surprised.

Are you really not going to act anymore?

“It’s been a long time since we last met, Vermouth.” Following Hondou Eikai’s movements, Fūya Rei put his gun back into his waist and turned to look at Vermouth and said, “After all, we have been companions for many years. Why didn’t you say hello before leaving?”

"Hmph, come on." Vermouth sneered and asked Furuya Rei in a sarcastic tone, "How could I be so lucky to be a partner with the Japanese public security officers of the National Police Agency?"

Hondou Eikai's brows couldn't help but twitch slightly.

My goodness, after knowing such a secret, do I really have the chance to go back alive?

"Oh, there's also a CIA agent... wow, the organization is really lucky to have him." Vermouth glanced at Hondou Eikai and added.

If it was within the expectations of Furuya Rei and Hondou Eikai that Vermouth, who followed Taichi, knew their identities, then this was somewhat unacceptable to Ooka Momiji and Iori Muga.

She, Ooka Momiji, the heiress of the Ooka family, was forced by Japanese public security and CIA agents to ask for help from the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, who were wanted by the public.

Even before meeting Taichi, in order to prevent Taichi from standing idly by, she agreed to the suggestion made by Kaguya Shinomiya via text message and became a non-staff member of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts.

bang.

The sound of gnashing teeth came from Ooka Hongye's mouth.

But no one present looked at her.

After all, before the girl had the chance to reveal that she had become a non-staff member of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts, Taichi had already agreed to her request to protect their master and servant.

Although it was a bit embarrassing to beg for help in a desperate manner, fortunately the most embarrassing thing had not been exposed yet.

But after that, as long as the boy not far away casually said a few words to Kaguya Shinomiya, the fact that she joined the non-staff member group of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts at this critical juncture could no longer be concealed.

The confused mentality made Ooka Hongye lose her composure, and she lost control when she bit her teeth, making a noise.

"Now, let's talk about why you're targeting Ms. Ooka." Taichi put the teacup back on the coffee table, then looked at Furuya Rei and Hondou Eikai, "I don't want to play tricks with you, so let's just speak frankly."

Fūya Rei glanced at Taichi uncomfortably.

There is no Japanese saying like "speak openly and honestly".

"It was Rum's request." After taking a look at Vermouth, Furuya Rei stated without any hesitation the reason why he was forced to target Ooka Momiji.

Whether it is the existence of the Phantom Thieves of Hearts or the existence of that hacker with extraordinary abilities, the threat is too serious for Furuya Rei, so much so that he does not dare to really play tricks with Taichi.

They were afraid that he would be unhappy and expose all the internal secrets of the police department.

Although he is completely disappointed with politics, he, Rei Furutani, is still a Japanese public security officer who has vowed to protect this country.

"To be precise, it was a 'loyalty test' conducted by the organization on the two of us." Seeing that Furuya Rei started to tell the truth without hesitation, Hondou Eikai, who was afraid that he might be abandoned if he was a step slower than him, immediately added.

"Oh? Then you are really lucky." Vermouth sneered a few times and continued, "If Gin and Vodka had not been killed by Mordred-San, then what you two should have received was not a test, but two bullets from Gin."

"Did someone close to you kill Gin and Vodka?" Furiya Rei turned his head and looked at Taichi in shock, his face full of regret. "Why kill them? They know a lot about that organization. We might be able to get important information by arresting them."

Hondou Eikai also nodded in agreement.

"You should not be thinking about this now, but how to deal with the failure of this test." Taiyi rolled his eyes unhappily and reminded, "Or do you two intend to complete this test even if you are in danger of being thrown into the sea by me?"

Iori Muga immediately stood in front of Ooka Momiji and blocked her behind him.

"I advise you to take care of yourself." Iori Muga, who somewhat recognized the identity of this 'junior' in front of him, spoke up and reminded him.

Hondou Eikai spread his hands in frustration.

"I don't have the confidence to complete this test mission. I will run away as soon as the ship docks."

This woman is not honest.

Taichi narrowed his eyes and looked at Hondou Eikai without a smile on his face.

Chapter 188: The storm is coming?

Hondou Eikai actually has no way out.

If she had insisted on being an undercover agent in the organization before just because of her rage for revenge against the organization, now she was purely forced to do so.

After all, her last treasure in this world was controlled by her and her father’s old employer.

In order to control her as a pawn, the damn FBI actually cooperated with the CIA to abduct her brother to America!

In order to avoid the consequences, she no longer valued her own life.

It’s all because of that damn kid with glasses and the hateful FBI!

[“It’s the truth, but it conceals some important information. Beep, this is the result of the divination by Lady Himiko.” Himiko reminded in her mental meeting.]

"I remember that your brother was sent to live in America not long ago, right?" Taiyi asked in a threatening tone.

The expression on Hondou Eikai's face immediately became tense.

"Okay, I admit it." Considering the terrifying intelligence power of the man in front of him, and the fact that even the senior cadre Vermouth abandoned the organization and turned to him, Hondou Eikai raised his hands with a bitter face, "I was planning to shoot the young lady while she was off the ship and let her guard down... So, please spare my brother's life."

Ooka Momiji's face twitched, and she poked her face slightly out from behind Iori Muga and looked towards Hondou Eikai.

This woman is really dangerous. She must remember her face and avoid her next time she sees her.

There was a cold gleam in Fūya Rei's eyes when he looked at Hondou Eikai.

He began to consider whether he should risk further suspicion from the organization and kill this bastard who might drag him down.

They are just partners. Who among the members with code names in the organization hasn’t lost dozens of partners?

Anyway, Gin is gone now. Given Rum's character, even if he suspects him deeply, he will let him go a little before getting actual evidence, based on the principle that "this chess piece can still be used for a while".

But the Ooka faction really can’t fall now… just like the Shido faction can’t fall either.

The fall of a political family means the tragic loss of homes and lives of countless ordinary citizens.

At the very least, we have to wait until the corrupt factions start fighting each other until one faction is almost completely devoured, and then we can collapse. This way, the impact on society will be minimal.

Rei Furuya suddenly slapped himself for no reason.

Everyone looked at him strangely.

"It's just that my face is a little itchy." Fūya Rei explained.

At the same time, he cursed himself in his heart.

Just now he was feeling sorry for the worthless deaths of Gin and Vodka, but now he was planning to arrange for "Kil" to take a trip to the Santu River!

The information in her head has not been interrogated yet.

Furukaya Rei wanted to invite Kiel to go to the police station with him first.

Interrogate her to find out what she knows about the organization... and get some intelligence from the CIA at the same time.

Intelligence weapons can be hidden from everyone.

But you can't really not have it in your hands.

……

"Mordred? Do you want to go into the sea?"

After lunch, Kisaragi returned to the deck to prepare for sunbathing and looked at Mordred, who was lying on the railing overlooking the deep sea, with some confusion and asked.

"...No." Mordred looked away and shook his head, explaining with a look of doubt on his face, "I just suddenly felt that there seemed to be something very terrifying in the sea."

"Thalassophobia?" Hibari raised her eyebrows and looked at Mordred and asked.

She remembered that Mordred had expressed his aversion to the sea several times before.

"That's not the case." Mordred retorted unhappily, "There is nothing in this world that can scare me."

"It's just that I... Using Taiyi's words, it should be considered as the alertness brought by 'ancestral intuition'." Mordred replied somewhat unhappily, "My alertness is quite effective."

"…If there really was something under the ship, the people in the cockpit should have discovered it in advance and changed direction." Although Eri Kisaki didn't quite understand what 'ancestral intuition' was, she was still quite confident in modern technology.

"Mordred, did you sense it?" Xin Tiao Qian, who suddenly appeared from somewhere, came over and stared at Mordred and asked.

"What did you sense?" Mordred looked at Xin Tiaoqian and asked.

"I can't really put it into words." Xin Tiao Qian answered hesitantly, "I just feel a tightness in my chest, as if some danger is about to come."

If one person says it, Kisaki Eri will smile. If two people say it, Kisaki Eri will remain expressionless. But if three people say it, Kisaki Eri will take it more or less seriously.

Especially now the world is not peaceful.

So, when Mordred and Akane Shinjo expressed their ominous premonitions one after another, Eri Kisaki turned her head to look at Ayane, who was about to ask Ran Mouri to help her apply sunscreen on another folding chair.

"Don't look at me. I don't have the same magical intuition as Mordred and Lady Akane." Ayane waved her hand and stood up from the folding chair and answered, "But I choose to believe in their intuition."

"Mordred-san, Lady Akane, please protect the three here for the time being. I will report the results of your intuition to His Majesty."

Well, here comes the third person.

This time, Kisaki Eri felt completely uneasy.

She simply picked up the blanket that was originally used to cover her back so that she could ask her daughter to help apply sunscreen and wrapped it around her waist, then turned her head to look at Mordred and Xin Tiaoqian.

"I have a bad feeling now, so let's just give up sunbathing and take Xiaolan and Sonoko back with us."

Kisaki Eri believed that if any dangerous accident happened, Taichi's side would undoubtedly be the safest place.

I would rather trust it to have it than to trust it to have nothing.

Hibiki Eri doesn't want to make any mistake that she will regret later.

"Huh? Not taking a sunbath?" When Suzuki Sonoko heard that Kisaki Eri was going to take them both back to the room, she asked with some regret.

"No." Hibiki Eri answered without hesitation, "People are already in a state of panic because of the murders and disappearances on the ship. Sunbathing will easily arouse the jealousy and hostility of those with ulterior motives."

In order to cover up Mordred and Akane Shinjo's ominous premonition, Eri Kisaki even made up a story.

As a result, as soon as they arrived at Taiyi's room, they found that it was very lively inside.

The reason lies with Ayane.

When she came back to report to Taiyi, she discovered that several anonymous "public security officers" hiding in the dark were monitoring Taiyi's room, so she simply tied them up and handed them over to Taiyi for decision.

Then, Furuya Rei was in trouble.

Chapter 189 Monster Gu

"Is there something wrong under the sea?" After listening to Ayane and the others' description of their feelings, Taiyi's eyebrows instantly raised.

Mordred, even Akane Shinjo felt that something was wrong, so Taichi couldn't just ignore it as an illusion.

"I have promised to temporarily protect Miss Ooka and her housekeeper while we are on the ship. You can take care of them for a while." Taiyi nodded to Mordred and Ayane and said, "It is best to stay in the room and don't walk around."

"I'll go check out the situation."

After saying that, Taiyi left the room.

Just as Hondou Eikai turned around and was about to leave, a hand was placed on her shoulder.

"No one can leave here before Taichi comes back." Mordred looked at Hondou Eikai with cold eyes and reminded him, "So, wait here, Kaikai."

"I have given up this job and just want to go back to my room." Hondou Eikai felt a chill on his back and raised his hands in surrender with some uneasiness.

"No." Mordred answered bluntly, "Just wait here obediently."

"Ah... do I have no choice but to stay here?" Ooka Hongye hesitated for a moment and raised one hand and asked.

"If you don't care about your own safety, then go ahead." Mordred glanced at Ooka Hongye and replied, "I can't guarantee that everyone on this ship who has ill will and murderous intentions towards you is here. Besides, I have other people to protect, so it's even more impossible for me to follow you around."

"I understand." Ooka Hongye nodded with a smile, then pointed to the bed where Shinjo Akane and Mao Lilan sat, "Can I sit with them?"

"As you wish." Mordred didn't even look in the direction Ooka Momiji pointed, but just stared at Hondou Eikai and Furuya Rei.

"Tsk." Vermouth crossed her arms in dissatisfaction as she looked at the slightly crowded room.

Of course, what made her feel even more uncomfortable was that the bed that Mao Lilan was sitting on was not the one she slept on.
