Volume 2: Crisis Acceptance Chapter 18: Can't Bear to Part with the Child, Can't Tie Up the Wolf

  The light in the cave wasn't very dim, but after a long time of being blocked out, Kawahara still couldn't see things clearly when he opened his eyes. However, Mochizuki was still recognizable to him.

  "Bastard! You're a female demon!" Kawahime's anger flared up instantly, and he struggled desperately to pounce on her immediately, tearing the woman who had tormented him to death into pieces. However, the wooden stake behind him didn't budge, only creaking with a "creak, creak" sound.

  Mei Zhīzi knew there was a tiger on the mountain, but she deliberately walked towards the mountain and rode to the river. She personally untied the ropes on his body and ordered her subordinates to prepare wine and dishes to calm him down.

  "Yes, Black Team." The female team member who played the role of Kawaritsuki's daughter replied, bowing her head to pick up the torn and tattered silk fabrics on the ground and walking out of the cave. Just as she was about to leave, she was called back by Mochizuki.

  The female team member asked: "May I ask, are there any other instructions from the Black Team?"

  "First go get the medicine box, give our white team vice-captain a shot of penicillin, and then bandage him up." Meizhi stroked the wounds on Chuanji's body, feigning heartache: "Look at these horizontal and vertical bloodstains, it's heartbreaking for our team."

  "Yes, Black Team." The female team member turned and left.

  Mitsuko's feigned sympathy made Kawaki feel as if he had swallowed a bird's droppings, and he reflexively raised his hand, which had just been freed, to cover his mouth. As soon as he stretched out his hand, Mitsuko mistakenly thought that he was going to retaliate against her, so she quickly and skillfully applied a powerful grappling move on him.

  "Ah yo!" Kawaki shouted, his hand falling limply as if severed, with a mixture of energy and powerlessness.

  From Mei Chizuko's wrist strength, Kawaki knew he was no match for her and secretly gave up his revenge against her.

  Kawaki's eyes gradually cleared up, and the cave seemed to have brightened a lot. He neatly let Mochizuki untie the rope-like strings wrapped around his body, swept a glance at the crow team members in front of him, and then began to observe this cave.

  Just as the cavalry imagined when they were blinded, this is a spacious cave, with wooden stakes, stone benches and abandoned knives and spears scattered within sight, leaving traces of human habitation everywhere.

  At a glance, Kawara knew that this place had once been inhabited by bandits. A bandit's nest that could accommodate hundreds of people was actually occupied by Mochizuki's Crow Troop. It can be imagined that this special force of twenty or thirty people is not ordinary.

  The female crow team member came in, carrying a heavy first-aid box. She professionally gave Kanji an injection, applied medicine and bandaged him up, completing the rescue neatly in no time.

  Mizuko bent down to hug Kawari, but he struggled. She still used her old trick of pressing a point on his body, making him lie quietly in her arms, and then carried him out of the cave entrance.

  Finally saw the sun, enjoyed the fresh air, the blue sky and white clouds above are extremely pleasing to the eye, the terrible mood of being stuck in a traffic jam has improved.

  "Darling, you must be wondering why I'm being so hard on you." Meiko deliberately pressed the two large grapefruits tightly against his body, trying to use a woman's gentleness to pull back the man who was drifting away from her.

  Kawaki knew that Yoshiko was being too hard on herself, but what he couldn't understand was whether she had to test herself so much. However, he only thought about this in his heart. To be honest, he really didn't dare to confront this woman who had become abnormal.

  "Maybe it's what the Chinese say, 'can't bear to part with one's children, can't keep wolves at bay'." Mei Zhizi understood in her heart that Kawahara didn't want to touch on the pain of these past few days, and she said hoarsely: "Who made us special agents among special agents?"

  "Must all special agents be tested like this?" Kawahime couldn't help but finally speak up.

  Mizuko didn't answer, silently carrying Kawahito into a white birch forest, then through a secret training ground, and finally entering a small mountain hut, coming to her own room, putting him on the fragrant bed.

  Kanetai swept a glance over the room, the furnishings were extremely simple, apart from the bed, there was also a wooden desk, two wooden stools, and under the desk was placed a radio. It could be seen that this was where Meichiko often worked.

  The weather was sweltering, and the room felt like a steamer that couldn't breathe. Guan Yu felt as if he were lying on a hot board, with sweat sticking his body and clothes together. Although the penicillin was gradually taking effect, the wound still throbbed with unbearable pain.

  Mizuko put down the river and faced him without hesitation, taking off his black clothes and revealing a patch of white skin. The two large grapefruits stretched his undershirt to the point where it was bursting at the seams, and the enticing cleavage made him hastily cast his eyes into it, producing an inexplicable impulse.

  "Go, go, go." Mieko understood Kawaki's gaze and said, like driving away a naughty child, "After you recover, look at them however you want. Anyway, they're all yours."

  Kanji thought to himself, "How dare you say something so shameless!", but he said out loud: "You still haven't answered my question."

  Mizuko sat on the bed, stroking Kawari's face and said: "Not every special agent has to go through such a rigorous test like you. The test for you was carefully planned by the higher-ups."

  "Why?" Kawahori asked, prying open Mochizuki's hand.

  Mizuko said seriously, "Because you are the soul of the entire Crow, that is, the head. Once you have a problem, our big boss's painstakingly managed team will be finished."

  Kawara asked strangely: "Isn't the leader of Crow Team supposed to be Urasawa Michiko?"

  "Mei said: 'I, Mei, have self-awareness and it's hard to win. So I recommended you to the big boss.'"

  Kawaji pressed urgently: "Who is your big boss? Is it Tōyama Gensuke or Hirayama Iwajirō?"

  "You're wrong, dear." Michiko said with some annoyance, standing up and correcting him: "It should be our old boss."

  The cavalryman pursued closely: "You haven't answered me yet, who is he?"

  "Mind your own business, or you'll get a headache."

  "I'm the head of the Crow Team, what about you?"

  "My task was to test you, and since you passed, this Crow Team has nothing to do with me anymore."

  "Are you leaving the Crow Team?"

  "Yes, the highest officer of the Crow Team is White Crow - Lieutenant Kawara."

  "Where are you going?"

  "Don't ask what shouldn't be asked, this is discipline."

  "What kind of wolf are you going to cheat again?"

  "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, Captain Kawachi." Michiko's face fell.

  Kawaki saw the same kind of bitter sorrow on Michiko's face as when they parted ways, and his heart forgave this poor woman. He was really wondering if that big boss who made Michiko jump with just one touch was that mysterious figure? What earth-shaking thing would Michiko go to do again?
