Chapter 612 Gin: I want to play cards with my colleagues...
That's terrifying...
Everyone was subconsciously feeling a sense of感慨 (gǎnkǎi, a complex emotion encompassing feelings, thoughts, and reflections).
Sonoko Suzuki is a truly terrifying woman, and the Suzuki Group is truly unfathomable...
This woman, with just a simple sentence, was able to make Gin, this eternally unyielding iceberg, instantly reveal his vulnerable side...
This is something Vermouth, who once secured Gin's first blood, couldn't even do!
Now, this person has actually done it, and his ability is enough to earn the admiration of everyone in the organization.
Even a seasoned veteran like Pisco found the scene before him somewhat unbelievable.
"Ah, I know,"
Sonoko Suzuki interrupted Gin, speaking first and smiling as she spoke on his behalf.
"I know you're definitely not here yet."
"Our security guards already informed me beforehand that you hadn't appeared within three kilometers of the estate..."
"I................."
Gin was speechless in the face of Sonoko Suzuki's words.
Lin Jiayou, who was standing next to her, clearly heard what Suzuki Sonoko said, and his lips twitched slightly.
Damn, the Suzuki Group is really rich. They've put a three-kilometer radius around the manor under surveillance just for the second young lady's date...
However, Lin Jiayou reconsidered.
That old bastard Jirokichi Suzuki actually hired a whole bunch of helicopters for a mere Phantom Thief Kid and a jewel that was just a stone to him.
These helicopters were so numerous that even police helicopters couldn't fly in.
Even more outrageous is that these helicopters weren't used to corner Kaito Kid; they were simply used to film his autobiography, Suzuki Jirokichi...
Well, I'm sorry, Lin Jiayou can't understand the simple and unpretentious life of the wealthy...
but.................
Lin Jiayou glanced at Gin over there, then at the crowd around him who were straining to hear more clearly, and his eyes flickered slightly...
Swah——
With lightning speed, he tapped something on Gin's phone...
Even Gin didn't have time to react to that speed.
By the time he noticed, he was already horrified to discover...
Lin Jiayou actually turned on the hands-free function on his phone!!!
Damn that guy!
Gin gritted his teeth in hatred and instinctively reached for the speakerphone button to turn it off.
I absolutely must not let my conversation with Sonoko Suzuki reach the ears of the rest of the organization!
Otherwise, how could he, as the branch secretary of the Tokyo branch, establish a dignified image in front of all his subordinates and the newly hired Kimie Shimabukuro?
But unfortunately...
Just as he was about to turn off the hands-free button, he felt Lin Jiayou's meaningful gaze.
Among them were teasing spectators and threats that wouldn't allow him to turn off speakerphone...
At the same time, Lin Jiayou was silently mouthing a gesture to Gin—
No, you can't!
If I close it, I'll open it again...
Gin's lips twitched, and his face turned ashen.
He knew Cherry hadn't come to his house with good intentions...
Now, turning it off is out of the question; otherwise, with Cherry's lightning-fast reflexes, he'd be back on the spot the moment Cherry turns it off...
Ugh--
Gin let out a long sigh.
Now, all we can do is pray that the woman doesn't say anything inappropriate...
"I didn't call to rush you,"
Sonoko Suzuki was still talking non-stop, and at times, she even started to explain herself in a somewhat hurried manner.
"I called just to ask if you've left yet. I feel like my preparations aren't quite complete yet, and I'd like to make some more arrangements..."
"No, no,"
Gin, upon hearing Sonoko Suzuki's words, completely forgot about the hands-free issue and inexplicably felt a pang of guilt.
I had already promised her, but now I can't go, and I really feel bad for her...
However, when he thought of the organization as his true love, and the people within it as his brothers and sisters, he could only harden his stance slightly and speak calmly to Suzuki Sonoko.
"I'm still at home right now, I have something to take care of..."
"Eh?!"
Sonoko Suzuki gasped in surprise.
All you could hear was a trace of anger in her voice, replaced by a look of worry for Gin.
"Do you have a job?"
"Still working this late?"
"Mr. Yin, please be careful. Regarding work... I don't know much about it, but please make sure you're safe..."
She had already guessed about Mr. Yin's profession.
Although his specific information is uncertain, it is certain that it must be extremely dangerous and his work is very demanding...
And so, the words of concern just slipped out...
"I............"
Gin felt even more guilty after hearing what Sonoko Suzuki said.
However, he still had no choice but to force himself to speak.
"I have plans with my colleagues right now, let's do it another time..."
"........"
Upon hearing Gin's words, the other end of the phone suddenly fell silent...
