Cold sweat broke out on Ireland's forehead. The other party's understanding of the organization was beyond ordinary people. Now even the information of another commander of this operation, Vermouth, had been dug out.

Could it be that Xiang Yuanguang had already completely mastered all the information about this operation? Was everything that happened around him just a trap planned by Dante and Xiang Yuanguang?

The last chess piece.

He snapped his fingers at Yuan Guang and his tone became much more relaxed.

"In fact, after leaving the diplomatic embassy, ​​Dante had already contacted me secretly, because the murder at the diplomatic embassy was too coincidental. Why did Tsujimura Kimie take action just when the action team arrived?"

"This must have been planned and arranged by someone, and someone tipped off Vermouth to the exact time the action team would arrive at the diplomatic embassy..."

"It's a mole, right? There's a mole in the operation team, and your action is to remove the mole from suspicion or to evacuate him safely... right?"

At this time, the blue hedgehog put forward a guess that he had suspected before but had never been able to confirm.

And now the last broken heart lock on Ireland's body means that his guess is indeed correct.

There is a traitor in the action team, but we don’t know who it is yet————————

"Irish, I'm waiting for your answer."

—————May 28, 8:25 p.m.——————

—————Yika Town, the top floor office of the car company——————

"Ireland has not contacted us for a long time and has not shown up at the designated meeting point."

"I'm afraid something happened to him when he was dealing with Xiang Yuanguang. Maybe he was caught, or maybe he died."

The voice came from the other side of the phone. Pisk lay down on the sofa and just listened quietly.

Now that he is old, he no longer has the quick mind and good skills he once had.

He just felt that Ireland, as his chosen successor and the most promising younger generation, would not fail.

His fingers tapped on the table somewhat unnaturally, and with his other hand he put the phone to his ear, somewhat hesitantly.

"No, no, Ireland will be fine. He's a better man than me. How can anything go wrong with a lawyer?"

"Even if that lawyer is a good fighter, he is just an average fighter for professionals like us." Pisk's words made Vermouth, who was still in Kamurocho, snort coldly.

Sure enough, Gin's evaluation of Pisco was correct, Pisco was really old.

He is indecisive, his skills have declined, and he no longer has the professional ability and strength he once had.

She patiently emphasized it again.

"Ireland killed the man sent by the Nishikawa Group to pick up Xiang Yuanguang, and he disappeared after that."

"If he was caught or shot by the police, Kamurocho would definitely publish relevant news."

"After all, it's a lawless city, but there's no news from Kamurocho..."

"This shows that Ireland has been caught and his identity as a member of the organization has been exposed."

"You have never met Xiang Yuanguang, so you don't know his abilities... That man is like a mind reader. He can break down other people's defenses through words and easily get the answers he wants."

"According to my guess, Ireland has probably betrayed the organization and disclosed all the information about this operation! Even if he hasn't, it's only a matter of time before he reveals himself in the hands of the secret police."

"My idea is... to find Ireland and kill him to eliminate any future trouble."

The solution provided by Vermouth was very organized, but it was not what Pisco wanted.

He just thought in silence, and when it took so long that Vermouth became a little impatient, Pisk said.

"No, that won't happen. Ireland won't betray us. Even if we want to kill him... we have to confirm the situation first."

"Vermouth, I am the commander of this operation, and this is my final decision."

The person on the other end of the phone snorted coldly.

"Then we'll see."

——————-———————————

“It’s surprising.”

Xiang Yuanguang's gaze paused for a moment, and finally he just put his hands in his pockets, his eyes seemed a little depressed.

This surprised the secret policeman next to him, because it was the first time he saw this kind of look in Xiang Yuanguang's eyes since he met him.

So the secret police asked nervously.

"Well? Has Ireland told the whole truth about the case?"

"……No."

He took two steps back and looked at the doctors who were performing rescue operations in the interrogation room.

Then he added calmly.

"not yet."

Just as Xiang Yuanguang guessed at the beginning, as long as the logical chess is completed, Ireland will definitely reveal all the secrets of organizing this action——————

But what he didn't expect was that Ireland, realizing that his mood was wrong, directly bit off the poison hidden in the innermost part of his teeth and used suicide to avoid the settlement effect of logical chess.

Even if he immediately notified the prepared medical team to come for emergency treatment, it was still unknown whether Ireland could survive in the end and how much of his body functions he could recover even if he survived.

"...Although I have always been disgusted with this kind of murderous villain, I have to admit that this guy is indeed a tough guy..."

...Sure enough, without the mental shock effect brought by the heart lock, it is still unlikely to rely solely on logical chess to obtain the most unspeakable secrets hidden deep in other people's hearts.

Xiang Yuanguang leaned against the wall next to him, falling into silence and thought. He was wondering what the real creator and user of logical chess, Prosecutor Miken Reiji, would do if he encountered such a situation.

"…Perhaps, in this case, a game of logical chess that truly relies on logic and psychological knowledge will bring better results than a game of forced logical chess…"

...Just like the system's built-in mind-locking ability, the logical chess ability supplemented by the system also has some flaws that he has not noticed... ?

Chapter 444: Confrontation with Ireland (?)

—————May 28, 9:15 p.m.——————

—————Yukaka-cho, Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters——————

Except for the area that was required to be cleared, police officers in other places were doing their work at their daily pace.

Among them was Officer Takagi Wataru, who finally had some free time.

He yawned and lay down on his workstation, thinking about going back to sleep after Officer Sato came to relieve his shift.

Although there are always people working and on duty in places like the Metropolitan Police Department.

But it is definitely not the same group of people who are on duty day and night, because people always need to rest.

"Ha~ I really want to sleep. I've worked overtime for so many days in a row. It's time for me to have a good sleep."

Takagi Wataru rubbed his sleepy eyes, yawned, and spoke incoherently.

In response to this, Officer Chiba Kazunobu beside him nodded with deep understanding. Compared with Takagi Wataru, he was much more energetic, probably because he was a wimp...

"That's right, it would be great if there were fewer cases in Beika Town. I bought the Legend of Zelda game last week, but I still haven't rescued Zelda. It's all because of working too much overtime."

"Ah? The Legend of Zelda? Isn't Zelda the protagonist with the green hat?"

Officer Takagi was shocked.

"…Isn't that Link? Senior Takagi, are you confused?"

Officer Chiba said this with a bit of contempt, making Takagi Wataru feel the intimidation of the otaku's aura.

Originally, Takagi Shigeru wanted to explain to Officer Chiba that he was not a cloud player, but he saw a small bag falling from above his head and landing on the table at the workstation——————

The bag contained some snacks from roadside stalls.

"Officer Sato..."

Chiba Kazunobu raised his head and looked at Officer Sato who was walking past Takagi Wataru with an expression that said "what about me?" However, Sato Miwako just raised her eyebrows, which immediately made Officer Chiba shrink back.

"...You look really good today. I won't bother you anymore. I'm leaving now. I'm leaving now."

After tidying up their desks and picking up their bags, the otakus ran away rationally.

Takagi Shigeru looked at Sato Miwako helplessly. He just picked up the snacks that were prepared for him as a midnight snack, but suddenly his eyes froze in surprise.

Because someone went towards the area that the secret police had repeatedly warned not to pass through.

Without time to say anything more, Takagi Wataru immediately put the midnight snack aside and chased after the courageous stranger who had ventured into the world under the surprised gaze of Officer Sato.

What a joke, Master Xiang Yuan is still there. You know, when he passed by that area before, he took a look from afar and was frightened by the look in Master Xiang Yuan's eyes.

If this stranger went there and met Master Xiang Yuan who was in an extremely bad mood, he would probably go in upright and come out sideways, and he probably wouldn't even have a chance to ask for his medical expenses!

"Please wait! That's not the office area, you can't enter!"

Officer Takagi spoke loudly, however, the reckless stranger paused for a moment in surprise, then turned his head, looked at Officer Takagi, and took out his ID from his pocket.

Suddenly, Takagi Shigeru stopped and looked at the certificate with some surprise.

"Thank you for your concern, Mr. Criminal, but for now, I don't need your help."

The unfamiliar police officer said with a smile.

In response to this, Takagi Shigeru touched the back of his head in surprise and gave an embarrassed smile.

"Oh, I see. But don't you switch defense in pairs? Why did you come alone?"

"Of course it's because I'm not a police officer here to relieve the guard. Didn't an accident happen this afternoon?"

The unfamiliar police officer explained the situation fluently and unfolded the folder he had brought with him, revealing the words on it.

Although he couldn't see it clearly, Takagi Shigeru could see clearly that the top line read "Investigation Report".

"After the terrorist was captured this afternoon, an accident occurred due to some special factors. The person in charge of the investigation asked me to find the relevant information of the terrorist so that further questioning can be carried out." "If you don't believe it, just ask Inspector Shiratori who was here this afternoon to confirm whether what I said is true."

...Shiratori Jinzaburo, that guy was indeed on duty here in the afternoon, but was later called away by Detective Mori.

Takagi Shigeru nodded, asked no more questions, and turned back to his workstation.

However, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what it was.

After all, this is the headquarters of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. There's no way there could be some movie plot where an imposter sneaks in, right?

Tick, tick, tick, tick.

The footsteps were approaching. The police officer who was on guard in the restricted area narrowed his eyes, looked at the person who was coming, and after confirming his ID, he simply let him pass, allowing him to pass unimpeded.

Vermouth was not surprised by this. The identity she used to disguise herself was real, the ID was real, and even the information was real, but the person was fake.

However, since she dared to come here alone, she naturally did not think that her identity would be exposed - after all, the real original owner was also going to come here at this time, but was knocked unconscious by her.

Originally, Vermouth wanted to kill him directly, but when she thought about the commotion in Tokyo, she gave up the idea, mainly because it was relatively safe...

"...Everything is just as you said before."

Ireland's voice was heard in the room, causing Vermouth to subconsciously narrow her eyes.

"Yes, there is a spy in the special operations team. The specific time of the team's arrival was leaked by the spy."

"The one who poisoned...? Of course it wasn't the traitor. That guy didn't have the chance to poison."

Snap——————

A sound like snapping fingers came from the room. There was no doubt that the other person in the room besides Ireland was the person that Vermouth was afraid of in this operation, Xiang Yuanguang.

"Of course I know it's not that traitor. Tell me something more useful. You've already told me about Kenzo Masuyama. Tell me about the member of the organization that was sniping on the street."

"Sharon's admirer, Calvados...right?"

Although there was no change in Vermouth's expression, she was actually in deep pain. Those useless agents alone would not be able to uncover this information, especially Kenzo Masuyama's true identity.

Although Pisk was the commander, he did not officially participate in the operation. Other people who knew about it had been killed by her. Kenzo Masuyama was exposed only because of an insider.

So...did Ireland betray? If Ireland betrayed, why did Xiang Yuanguang use this kind of rhetoric to trick Ireland? If Ireland did not betray, why did Xiang Yuanguang know this information?

Crunch——————

Pushing open the door of the room, Ireland, who looked miserable and tortured, and Xiang Yuanguang, who was in power and seemed at ease, both appeared in Vermouth's sight.

Xiang Yuanguang didn't seem to find her appearance strange—even though she was a member sent by the public security department to assist Xiang Yuanguang in conducting questioning.

"Put down the information and you can leave."
