"Something happened...what's the specific situation?"

Qin Zhibo, who knew what happened, paused his tone and pretended to be a little surprised.

James explained what happened on the other side of the phone.

"Two days ago, after you completed the investigation at the home of the female anchor named Shui Wu Reina, I had a phone call with Xiuyi."

"But since then, Xiuyi has stopped returning calls, and has not even shown up at regular internal meetings of the FBI. It's as if he has disappeared from the world..."

James' description made Qin Zhibo understand that Shuichi Akai did not disclose to the FBI his plan to invite his "father" to cooperate in capturing Gin.

This shows that in terms of emotional tendencies, Akai Shuichi is still more inclined to his father.

"Isn't he usually with you?" Qin Zhibo pretended not to know and continued to ask.

"No, he said he needed to hide from someone outside to ensure the safety of the FBI, so he acted alone most of the time."

Qin Zhibo could probably guess that the person Akai Shuichi wanted to avoid was Toru Amuro.

Since Toru Amuro took a leave of absence from the office, it seems that he has been following and investigating Shuichi Akai.

"Qin, do you think it's the person Xiuyi wants to avoid outside? Finally he took action against Xiuyi..."

Although James is not willing to believe this conjecture, after all, Shuichi's strength is obvious to all in the FBI, and ordinary people cannot deal with him.

Are there any experts out there?

"It's hard to say..." Qin Zhibo pondered, "It seems that there have been no murders against foreigners in Tokyo in the past two days."

"If it's Xiuichi, he may be hiding temporarily. You don't need to worry too much."

"Yeah?"

James nudged the white police chief Hu, and he noticed that Qin's attitude towards this matter was relatively calm.

But then I thought about it, Shuichi was partnered with Qin when he first entered the FBI, and the latter also knew Shuichi's strength very well.

This may be due to the trust between companions, so they believe that Shuichi Akai is fine.

However, as the commander-in-chief of the FBI's operations in Japan, he should be responsible for every subordinate and cannot expect Xiuichi to show up on his own.

"I know, I will organize the FBI to conduct an all-out search in the near future."

"Qin, do you have time?"

Obviously, James wanted to include Qin Zhibo in the search team.

After all, searching for missing persons is not directly part of the FBI's mission, so there is no problem in letting former FBI agents join in.

But Qin Zhibo really didn't have time. He still had to find a way for the FBI to find a living Shuichi Akai.

"Sorry, I have some things to do recently and have to go back to the United States."

"Going back to the United States? So suddenly?"

James was a little surprised. He thought his old friend had settled in Japan.

"Well, I have some things to do...so I would like to trouble you to provide me with access rights to the files I handled in the past."

In this era, high-tech information storage technology such as databases has not yet been developed, not even the FBI.

Therefore, I have to go to the United States to see these dossier information, which also provides a suitable reason for going to the United States.

"Past files?" James obviously didn't guess the reason. "Did something go wrong with the past files?"

"I'm a little concerned...but I'm not sure yet, so I have to go back and confirm with my own eyes..."

Qin Zhibo's words were ambiguous, which made James hesitate.

But after a few seconds, he agreed.

"Okay, I will ask someone to make arrangements after you arrive in New York."

"Thank you then. If there are any new updates on Xiuyi's side, don't forget to contact me at any time."

After hanging up the phone, James turned his heavy eyes to the many FBI agents in the room.

Judy, who was eager to find someone, stepped forward and asked hurriedly: "How is it? What did he say?"

James shook his head helplessly.

"He doesn't have any clues about Xiuyi either..."

Judy's expression changed and she stayed where she was with her eyes wide open.

Seeing this, James could understand that the office romance between Judy and Shuichi Akai was not a secret within the FBI.

Later, Akai Shuichi unilaterally dumped Judy due to the needs of the mission.

But until now, Judy still has feelings for Shuichi, and they are beyond the relationship between colleagues.

In this regard, James could only use Qin Zhibo's words to comfort this concerned and confused subordinate.

"You have to believe in Shuichi's ability. He can't be solved so easily."

"The more times this happens, the more we must stay calm and do our best to find out the whereabouts of our companions!"

"Now arrange the area for everyone to search..."

James looked at a Tokyo city map on the table and began to plan areas for each investigator.

Doing this is like looking for a needle in a haystack, but it's better than doing nothing.

Moreover, now that there is no clue about the character of Reina Mizuno, the FBI has also temporarily lost the clues about the investigation organization. Finding the missing agent is the only thing they can do.

…

Under James' arrangement, everyone was given new tasks.

Judy also cheered up again, and walked out of the building with other agents with confidence and hope.

Everyone got into their cars in the parking lot and drove in different directions.

Behind the green belt across the street, a figure was silently staring at the parking lot opposite.

One, two, three, four...

"A total of 10 people..."

This figure was wearing a gray sportswear and a sweatshirt hood. He looked like an ordinary resident running and exercising nearby.

But if anyone is staring at him, he has actually been wandering around here for more than an hour.

And this person is none other than Toru Amuro.

Since the assassination incident two days ago, Toru Amuro has been secretly investigating the mystery behind the incident, especially who killed Gin.

According to the surveillance, that face is probably Zhu Fu Jingguang.

This is not the first time Tohru Amuro has encountered Kageguang Morofuku, but every time it is a coincidence, as if fate keeps the two of them passing each other.

But no matter what, the appearance of Zhu Fu Jingguang is inseparable from the FBI.

Because back then, it was Akai Shuichi who "killed" Zhu Fu Jingguang in front of his eyes.

Now that Gin is being killed, it may be related to Shuichi Akai's manipulation of Zhu Fujingguang behind the scenes, and he cannot let go of this clue.

After more than a day of investigation, he took the lead in finding the FBI's stronghold.

In fact, it is not difficult to find FBI bases. These foreigners who use their own information to rent houses will be easily detected. In addition, a large number of foreign faces frequently visit the same place, which will definitely arouse the suspicion of the surrounding neighbors.

Therefore, as long as the search target is locked in a place where many foreign faces come and go, it will not arouse suspicion and leave no clues.

Before, I was registered with the FBI to stay in major hotels and inns, but then I suddenly moved to other places and disappeared for a while.

But now, these FBI's have reappeared in a foreigner's club.

This club is private, and member information is highly confidential, and even foreigners entering and exiting the club will not arouse suspicion.

I have to say, this is a great place.

But for Toru Amuro, it would be easy to find out the whereabouts of these people in Japan as long as they are not as cunning as Shuichi Akai and it is a home game.

In order to avoid alerting others, he didn't plan to install a monitor immediately. He wanted to see what was going on outside first.

But just from observing during this period, he could tell that something seemed to be going on within the FBI.

Almost all FBI agents went out to investigate with serious expressions, and they went in different directions.

They are looking for someone.

As for who he is looking for, it is a reasonable guess that it may be Shuichi Akai.

It has been analyzed before that the FBI would not order Gin to be killed, but it is hard to say for Akai Hide alone.

Once that man asked Zhu Fu Jingguang to kill Gin out of revenge, it would be exactly the opposite of the FBI's philosophy.

Shuichi Akai may be expelled from the FBI because of this.

But now, Toru Amuro is not completely sure whether Shuichi Akai will be so emotional.

Therefore, a reasonable method is needed to confirm the FBI's attitude and even penetrate into the FBI.
