Chapter 405 Asking for Signs
Gin did not continue to ask Granlivet whether he had received the tears that could make him immortal from his mother. All this was just speculation. The organization could not take action against Granlivet for the time being, so it was meaningless to know the exact answer.
The others also heard Gin's last question, and couldn't help but observe Granlivet subtly with the corner of their eyes, trying to see if his age matched his appearance, or if he was now older than the combined ages of everyone present and was an old monster who could live for hundreds of years.
After the tasks were assigned, several people left the base one after another.
As he was leaving, Bourbon happened to run into Kiel.
He stopped and called out to Keel, asking in a deep voice, "Keel, do you think Rye is really dead?"
"Of course, I did it myself, so I'm sure he's dead." Keel looked back at Bourbon calmly, "Besides, the whole process was recorded on surveillance video. Bourbon, you should have seen it too, right?"
Bourbon carefully observed her expression and found no flaws. If he had not confirmed that Rye was faking his death, he would probably have been fooled by Kil. He was now more and more sure of Kil's undercover identity.
"Indeed. But I have not seen Rye's body for a day, so I am skeptical about his death."
Kiel's expression turned a little dissatisfied. "You mean, if you haven't seen Rye's body for a day, you will always doubt me? It's not easy for you to see the body. You can ask Vermouth to help you change your appearance and sneak into the hospital morgue to see it."
"No, that's not Rye's body." Bourbon smiled and shook his head, "It was just an unrecognizable male corpse that appeared on the exploded vehicle in Raihayama. All the evidence that proves that the body is Rye is circumstantial, so I reserve my opinion."
Before Gil could speak, Bourbon changed the subject and asked, "By the way, Gil, I heard that you were noticed by Gin because you caught an undercover agent? What was that person's name? Oh, I remember, his name was Ethan Bentang."
Kiel suddenly heard her father's name, her breath stagnated, and then she quickly relaxed. She seemed unhappy and said, "Why are you talking about something that happened so long ago? Bourbon, you don't suspect that this is also fake, do you? In that incident, the undercover's body was left at the scene of the incident, and his face was intact. This can't be fake."
When Kil said the word "corpse", his voice was a little difficult, but he remained indifferent on the surface, just a little impatient with Bourbon's entanglement.
"Nothing, I'm just a little curious about which organization sent Ethan Bentang as an undercover." Bourbon waved his hand and said casually with some contempt, "I just want to know which organization sent such a rubbish undercover agent to kill a person who was controlled and injected with truth serum. Tsk." His disdain was evident in his words, "FBI? MI6? Or CIA?"
Bourbon keenly noticed that when he mentioned the name CIA, Kiel pursed his lips slightly and clenched his hands uncontrollably for a moment.
It seems that the organization that Kiel belongs to is the CIA.
The boy who asked about Mizunashi Rena at the Beika Central Hospital should have recognized the wrong person. Keel was the boy's sister, Hondou Eikai. As for the blood type mismatch, it was nothing. There were ways to change blood type.
Kiel didn't realize that Bourbon had noticed his subtle reaction: "It doesn't matter who it is. They are all enemies of the organization anyway."
Bourbon got the answer he wanted, so he didn't plan to say more and said goodbye directly: "What you said makes sense. Then I won't talk any more. I have a mission, so I'm leaving first."
Kiel was left staring at Bourbon's back in confusion, not understanding why he suddenly came over to talk to him like that. Was he just trying to provoke him?
Two days later, at the foot of the mountain where Narujin Taisha Shrine is located.
At this time, a middle-aged man and woman were walking slowly along the mountain road. They were dressed in simple and neat clothes, holding hands, with gentle smiles on their faces. Judging from their intimate behavior, they were obviously a loving couple.
The couple heard from friends that there was a shrine on a mountain in Osaka that was extremely effective for drawing fortunes, so they traveled here from another place specifically to get an answer to the problem of childlessness that had troubled them for many years.
The two supported each other and slowly walked towards the shrine on the mountain. The wife stayed close to her husband and said something intimately.
"The road to Narukami Taisha Shrine is quite difficult to travel. No wonder I didn't meet many people along the way."
"Yeah, this shrine isn't very famous. I heard that most people who go there are from nearby."
"But they say that the fortune sticks at Naruto Grand Shrine are very effective, but I don't know if it's true." The wife smiled gently and looked at her husband, "Dear, then we must sincerely ask for a fortune stick for our child."
