After reading all this, Yin Kong roughly understood that as long as Karasuma Renya still held the secret of Drug A, it would be virtually impossible to eliminate the Black Organization through official means.

Of course, after discovering the entrance to the Dark Realm, his original plan was to ask Rum and his trusted lieutenants to go diving in Tokyo Bay.

But now, he clearly has a better option.

Through Rum's memories, Yin Kong also confirmed one thing: the fake Takagi who attacked Sato Miwako was indeed Vermouth in disguise.

But after that, she fled to the United States for unknown reasons.

Even when the BOSS personally contacted her and assigned her a new mission, she refused with excuses, unwilling to take another step closer to the Far East.

Otherwise, it's highly likely that Rum wouldn't have had to personally handle Gin's situation.

Rum was naturally baffled by Vermouth's actions.

Yin Kong, on the other hand, naturally connected the strange gaze he had sensed not long ago and began to speculate:

Could this person have gotten together with that "Changing Witch"?

However, this is precisely what has created the current delicate situation for the Black Organization.

As the BOSS, Karasuma Renya is extremely mysterious. He rarely shows his face, and he can be counted on one hand the number of times he directly issues orders.

Therefore, the organization's tasks are usually conveyed by Rum or Vermouth.

Gin's astonishing work efficiency made him one of the few members who occasionally received direct orders from the BOSS. This "honor" was the root cause of his long-standing feud with Rum.

But now, Gin has fallen into the abyss and is most likely following the young master to "tata" (a euphemism for being harassed). Vermouth is hiding in the United States and does not dare to take a step near East Asia. Apart from a few who escaped the net, Rum has become Karasuma Renya's only channel for speaking out.

In other words, as long as Yin Kong controls this second-in-command and finds an opportunity to deal with those few who slipped through the net, wouldn't that be equivalent to directly taking over the entire Black Organization?

Chapter 156 Hidden dangers

Not to mention how many of the organization's many members are truly loyal to Karasuma Renya.

Even if they did exist, given Rum's status and position, it would be easy for him to arrange a few dangerous missions and make them disappear one by one.

Of course, it might be a little too early to raise the banner of "Karasuma is dead, Rum should rise."

Without the secret of Drug A, and perhaps without even Karasuma Renya himself taking action, the ruthless intelligence agencies of various countries could probably dismantle the Black Organization directly.

However, if it's just a matter of paying lip service while secretly undermining this nominal boss, then it shouldn't be a big problem.

"But this makes the issues that need to be considered much more complicated."

Yin Kong couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache. After figuring out the foundation of the Black Organization, he naturally didn't want to get involved in the love-hate relationship between the Black Organization and intelligence agencies of various countries.

But if he became the actual controller of the winery and continued to let it run rampant in various countries, even if Yin Kong didn't mind, Old Master Zhong probably wouldn't agree, right?

Fortunately, Yin Kong rummaged through Rum's memories and quickly discovered that the distillery's various criminal activities were basically for the purpose of maintaining the experiments and its own rampant expansion.

Even Gin would often take the opportunity to do some "small tasks" of extortion.

Although Karasuma is Japan's largest conglomerate, it would be impossible for it to openly provide funds to the Black Organization under these circumstances.

Therefore, if we cut these two largest expenditures, as well as the funding for various criminal operations...

Yin Kong scratched his head and asked A Ren to help him calculate. They discovered that this way, the winery could actually make a considerable profit every year.

After all, in order to avoid suspicion, the Black Organization would also set up some legitimate businesses in the area. Over the years of expansion and development, this has become a very large fortune.

However, figuring out how to integrate these resources and successfully launder the money is a complex and challenging process that can be quite daunting.

"Rin, can I leave this to you?"

Therefore, Yin Kong's first reaction was naturally to think of this very reliable deputy.

"It's okay, it's okay..."

Ah Ren didn't disappoint him, stating that as long as she had the [Book of Bewitching Hearts], she was confident she could fulfill Yin Kong's request, but—

"I'm not really good at this kind of work, and I don't really like it. It would be better to find a more suitable person to replace me as soon as possible."

Kuki Shinobu doesn't dislike tasks like tracking, gathering information, and fighting demons; in fact, she quite enjoys them.

But she had no interest in controlling Rum and managing the Black Organization; in fact, she was quite annoyed by it.

Out of respect for Yin Kong, doing it for a couple of days occasionally was fine, but if she continued doing it all the time, she felt she definitely couldn't stand it.

"I see. I will find a more suitable candidate as soon as possible."

Yin Kong suddenly realized that, given Ah Ren's unrestrained personality, she really couldn't handle these things.

However, there is no one more suitable for her role in her current team.

Zhongli's abilities are certainly more than sufficient, but using them for this kind of thing is really a waste of his talents.

Even if the Rock King Emperor were willing, Yin Kong would not be willing to leave him at the winery.

As for Cole, Xiangling, Fischl, and Mona, there's no need to say more; they basically lack talent in this area.

The remaining deer, Wanye and Candice, were stronger than them, but they clearly had no interest in this.

Upon thinking of this, Yin Kong immediately took the Ruoshui in his hand, lost in thought.

A sexy, tall figure gradually became clear in his mind.

If it were Yelan, she would probably be very adept at doing this and enjoy it, right?

So, is the reason why my future self kept this level 5 [Ruoshui] weapon as a reminder to me to pull out Yelan as soon as possible and take better control of the brewery in place of Aren?

Since such a hint was specifically left out, it means that this matter may be extremely important.

Could it be that Karasuma Renya still possesses some powerful trump card that could threaten him?

Only Yelan could have discovered it beforehand?

If that's the case, then Yin Kong is indeed looking forward to when he will finally get his hands on the Night Queen's card pool.

Why am I suddenly so sleepy?

After Ah Ren crossed out the drowsiness that Yin Kong had written, Rum quickly opened his eyes with a puzzled look and got up from the table again.

As a member of the organization, he was very vigilant. With strange ideas popping up one after another, Rum soon began to suspect that something was wrong with him.

But after Ah Ren casually crossed out these thoughts, his doubts vanished completely.

"That's a terrifying ability."

Watching Rum, who had been completely turned into a puppet under Ah Ren's control and was almost entirely driven by the words, Yin Kong couldn't help but sigh.

Fortunately, this is only because Rum's constitution is special and has a very high compatibility with the Book of Bewitching Hearts, which is why he has such a special effect.

Otherwise, wouldn't world leaders have long since become puppets of the winery?

Ah Ren's first action was naturally to have Rum pick up the phone and call Vermouth, who was far away in the United States, to confirm her situation again.

After all, although Yin Kong had roughly guessed that she probably wouldn't dare to show herself for the time being, if he wanted to sideline Karasuma Renya, this Thousand-Faced Witch was still the most pressing threat that needed to be eliminated.

"Belmod?"

"Rum, it's really rare for you to call me."

Upon hearing Rum's voice, Vermouth's tone became somewhat gloating:

"Could it be that we've encountered some serious trouble?"

She did know that the task of rescuing Gin had been handed over to Rum by the BOSS.

But clearly, after witnessing how Yin Kong shot down the armed helicopter with a bow and arrow, Vermouth had given up all hope that Rum would succeed.

However, just as Vermouth was about to project the [Changing Witch] onto the mirror to check Rum's current state, she heard an unfamiliar male voice on the phone:

"Don't move yet, let me finish what I have to say."

Upon hearing this, Vermouth immediately had a very bad feeling. However, when she tried to hang up the phone, her body completely disobeyed her commands, and she instantly froze on the spot.

Just as she heard, she could only obediently follow orders and couldn't do anything else.

Of course, there's also the "Changing Witch" who's adjusting the mirror, just like her.

The moment she heard Yin Kong's voice, she had already swung her claws at the phone in Vermouth's hand.

Unfortunately, it was still a step too late.

Chapter 157 Copy

Now, the "Ever-Changing Witch" can finally understand what Vermouth felt like yesterday when she was tricked by her.

I regret it, I really regret it.

If she had known this would happen, she would have patiently explained all the limitations of the golden talisman.

In that case, Vermouth should be more cautious when she receives Rum's call, right?

Unfortunately, it was all too late.

"where are you now?"

Despite their inner resistance, Vermouth and the "Changing Witch" were unusually honest, revealing the villa's true location in unison.

"Who...who are you?!"

Rum was naturally shocked to see Yin Kong suddenly appear and snatch his receiver.

Yin Kong obviously didn't need to answer his question, because A Ren had already casually picked up a pen from the table, then inlaid a fragment of the Shikon Jewel into it, and after writing a sentence, Rum's eyes widened in surprise.

Then, he completely ignored Yin Kong and sat back in his luxurious armchair to continue focusing on reviewing the documents.

Hearing two almost identical answers from the other end of the phone, Yin Kong was slightly surprised.

It seems his guess was right; Vermouth did indeed associate with the "Changing Witch."

Furthermore, it is unknown what they did, but the talisman that Zhongli planted was able to split apart, and even Vermouth was also restrained.

However, this shouldn't be considered a bad thing.

"Get to Sakuragawa Pharmaceutical Factory and wait for me as quickly as possible."

After hanging up the phone, the "Ever-Changing Witch" finally regained her ability to move.

However, it felt as if its sky had suddenly collapsed.

"Vermouth, you're so smart, you have to find a way to save me!"

The "Ever-Changing Witch" immediately tried to cling to Vermouth's leg and beg for mercy.

After all, it was very clear that even a hundred of it tied together would be no match for a cunning human, compared to using their brains.

Unfortunately, it can no longer do that.

Because after the call ended, the body of the "Changing Witch" began to act on its own.

It simply darted into the mirror in front of it and quickly disappeared.

Clearly, it had activated its innate ability and was rapidly heading towards the target location set by Yin Kong through the mirror.

I'm barely able to take care of myself either.

Hearing the words of the "Changing Witch" before she disappeared, Vermouth couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.

She never expected that even though she had refused the mission despite the BOSS's wrath, she would still fail in such an unbelievable way.

Vermouth's body, too, moved uncontrollably toward the private jet.

No wonder the "Ever-Changing Witch" feared the Far East so much, not even allowing her to get close. It turned out that the golden talisman had such a terrifying effect.

Wait, isn't this the information from the Cunning Rabbit House?

As someone who could cause Gin to fail, Rum would definitely investigate Heizo Kanoin and the Rabbit House behind him thoroughly, even without the Boss's orders.

In fact, Yin Kong had already found the photos of the cunning rabbit house and himself on the table.

These are all files left during registration, which Rum could easily obtain given his identity.

Apart from that, Yin Kong didn't see anything that could be considered a core secret.

Because besides Yin Kong, it seems that Rum only managed to get photos of Xiao Lu, Okino Yoko, and Aoyama Nanami.

After all, even among the real agents, Xiangling, who seems carefree, is actually very vigilant.

If someone were to secretly take photos, it would be impossible for them to detect it.

But besides that, the astonishing mission completion rate of the Rabbit House, and even Yin Kong's recent involvement in Ms. Yangzi's case, were also discovered.
