Human machines can't take pictures of the monster mountain, so before returning, Gin specially asked Butterfly to record some images and show them to Ibaraki.

After watching the video, Ibaraki's expression was indescribable.

How to describe it, it's the kind of surprise with a hint of disgust, with a bit of discomfort mixed with disgust, with a little boredom in the discomfort, and a little bit of Zhixi's complexity and entanglement in the boredom.

This level of complexity is enough for a butterfly to make a fan-shaped statistical chart.

"I confirm that there were no such maple trees before Baiyun Mountain." Ibaraki said firmly.

Gin dug a spoonful of the pudding he bought on the way back and took it into his mouth: "Did you not have it when you left Baiyun Mountain last night?"

Ibaraki frowned: "This... I walked in a hurry yesterday and didn't pay attention to my surroundings."

"It seems that those maple trees have nothing to do with the ghost girl's red leaves." Gin ate the remaining pudding and threw the pudding box into the trash can, "Butterfly, I asked you to collect information about maple trees just now, how much did you collect? "

Finally it was her turn to play, Butterfly put down the half-drinked honey: "Which aspect do you want to hear?"

Qin Jiu squinted at him: "Which side is important to listen to."

Ibaraki interjected, "I want to listen too."

Butterfly looked at Gin, saw him nodding, and then said: "Then let me say the most important point first, those maple trees are not actually maple trees, but they are more than [-]% similar to maple trees."

Ibaraki visually inspected the thickness of the barrier erected by the silver knife, and quietly moved a few inches closer to Jiutun, when he heard this confusing speech, three question marks slowly popped up above his head.

Gin didn't even raise his head: "Explain again in words that normal people can understand."

"Oh." Butterfly quickly searched the human language database, and changed to a less embarrassing expression, "I mean, from what we have seen, those are indeed maple trees, with most of the characteristics of maple trees .But in fact, the so-called maple trees do not exist, they are just afterimages of the past, which for unknown reasons materialized in front of us at this time period."

With this explanation, Gin basically understood.

A maple tree is indeed a maple tree, but it does not exist in the present, but an afterimage left by things in the past, which is the same principle as a mirage.It's just that the mirage is a natural phenomenon, and the maple trees on Baiyun Mountain may have been formed by some kind of coincidence, or someone did it deliberately.

Gin leans towards the latter.

However, Gin understood, but Ibaraki still had a confused expression of "what are you talking about".

Gin was too lazy to explain so much to him: "You don't need to explain so much, just get to the point."

"Okay, the point is..."

……

As we all know, the organization in black is a real-life undercover RPG game, and all players push the plot with the purpose of destroying it. However, this organization that has been infiltrated like a sieve still persisted tenaciously for many years. Only when the fire was extinguished did they see the dawn of victory.

Regarding organizational information, all players have a consensus that the organization has devoted most of its resources to a certain project.For this project, the organization has recruited countless researchers from all over the world, and the monthly routine research alone will cost an astronomical amount of money.

However, the strange thing is that although the undercover agents know that the organization is making a big news secretly, no one knows the content of the big news, even if it is a little bit of untrue leftovers.

There are quite a few rumors, among which the elixir of life is the most widely circulated and the strangest.In recent years, many transnational organizations, no matter what color or path they are on, have produced a lot of human confusion behaviors, some of which can even be recorded in the annals of human history, but when it comes to outrageous, none of them are more outrageous than this rumor.

Although immortality is the ultimate dream of most human beings in the world, anyone who has experienced some life experience and has a clear mind and normal functioning understands that dreams can only be imagined in dreams. If the organization in black is really willing to pay for this illusory goal With such a high price, he would not be able to survive being infiltrated into a fishing net by undercover agents.

So what exactly is the organization researching?

"I am not sure."

Leaning on the car, Akai Hideichi was smoking a cigarette, and wrapped the wound on his arm with a bandage.A strand of broken hair swayed slightly in front of his eyes, and a dark color appeared in his eyes.

"You have been lurking in the organization for several years, and you don't know about this?" Toru Amuro sat opposite him, his handsome face was scratched with several scratches, one was very close to the eye, and his eyelashes were stained. Blood.

His injuries were more serious than Akai Shuichi, and half of his body was stained red with blood.

"This is the top secret of the organization, and only the boss should know about it." After spitting out the cigarette butt, Akai Hideichi bent down and leaned into the car, took out two cans of milk, "Drink?"

Toru Amuro sneered disdainfully, then Maka held out her hand.

That milk is really delicious.

This is not his idea alone, it is the consensus of all people who have drunk milk, including Conan.

"I don't have much left in stock, these are the last two bottles." Akai Hideichi sat casually on the ground, unscrewed the bottle cap and took a sip, "Speaking of the organization's research, besides the BOSS, there were two other people involved in that incident." Might know. One is Belmode..."

Toru Amuro interrupted calmly: "She knows and won't say."

Akai Shuichi was silent for a moment: "The other one is gin. It's a pity that he is missing now, but even if he is found, he probably won't open his mouth."

"The two roads can't work, we can only find another way." Toru Amuro sipped the milk, narrowed his eyes slightly, and a warm current seemed to rise in his body, wandering between the wounds, numb the pain, "destroy the tissue , find research-related information, and everything will come to light.”

Akai Hideichi chuckled, unable to hear his emotions: "I hope everything goes well."

Amuro replied, "I hope everything goes well."

He also wants to go back and buy milk to change the taste of the coffee in the store.

Just as the two were talking without saying a word, a red glow suddenly appeared in the sky.The place shrouded in brilliance lit up a little bit of starlight, as if the night was approaching, but it was clearly just past noon at this moment.

Akai Shuichi and Amuro Toru also noticed this strange celestial phenomenon, but they didn't pay attention to it. They just glanced at it and got up and walked into the gate of the organization branch. After a while, fierce gunshots rang out inside.

Here and now, on the twelfth basement floor of the branch, the intermittent sound of dripping water echoed in the vast and empty space that was almost terrifying, bringing a quiet echo.

The dim light converged into a dull color, and all fell on the eight beds scattered in eight directions.The bed is an ordinary bed, with bedding and pillows, which seems to be warm and comfortable.However, there are many machines of unknown use hidden under the quilt, and a considerable part of the machines are stained with blood, which is particularly strange in the light yellow light.

Only two of the eight beds were empty, and one person was lying on each of the other six beds.These people are very strange. It is said that they are human beings, but they have some strange parts. Some have curved antlers, and some have bird wings.It is said that they are not human, but their appearance and figure resemble human beings, and they are more handsome than ordinary people.

Among the six people, only one looked completely normal, and he was the only one among them who was still breathing.

At that time, Akai Shuichi and others had searched to the tenth floor, and they would soon find this place.Just at this moment, Gin and Butterfly opened the space door and came in calmly.

"Are you sure there is still life here?"

With a lighter in one hand and a kitchen knife in the other, Gin was fully armed and looked around cautiously, worried about touching any defensive devices.Fortunately, the undercover brigade cut off all the power supply before demolishing the house. Without power supply, all the original devices here lost their effectiveness.

As Akai Shuichi guessed, Gin did know the content of the organization's research, and he had personally participated in it for a period of time—as a research subject while still in the mother's womb—so he knew very well what the research represented.

It can be described in one word - no survivors.

The first few years of research were good, because the depth of the research was not enough, and the people who were used as experimental subjects still had a little chance of survival. For example, gin was one of the fish that slipped through the net back then.However, in recent years, the researchers have been under too much pressure, and the methods have become more radical, and the survival of the experimental subjects has been staged by the so-called research results.In the last five years, Gin has not seen a single person pushed out of the laboratory alive.

So Butterfly told Gin he was in a daze when he triggered a timed mission to save research victims.

"Sure, it's right there!" The butterfly flapped its wings and flew to the east, where the only boy who had breath was lying on the bed.

Gin quickly followed, because the sound of house demolition above his head was getting louder and closer, he had no time to check the situation and information of that person, and after confirming to Butterfly that he was his mission target, he carried him to the On the shoulders, together with the big and small bags beside the bed, they were packed and taken away.

The space door was opened and closed, and after a brief void shock, the No.12 floor returned to tranquility again.

Five minutes later, Hideyoshi Akai kicked open the locked door, and everyone rushed in, searching for the research materials they had been looking for.

It's a pity that they are doomed to do nothing.

……

The gin left and returned in a hurry, and the whole process took less than 3 minutes.Basically, it was equivalent to the time it took for Ibaraki to look at Shuten.

The time-limited task is a special task triggered temporarily. Before Qin Jiu left, he was learning about the situation of the maple trees on Baiyun Mountain with Butterfly. Because the time interval was not long, even if they were interrupted midway, it did not affect their continued discussion on this topic.

But before picking up the content of the previous conversation, Gin needs to settle the person he brought back.

Blowing Ibaraki away from Shuten, Gin turned on the second form of the kitchen knife, inserted the silver knife back into place, and opened the barrier to protect Shuten, causing Ibaraki to stare angrily.

Just being stared at a few times is not painful for Gin, so he walked past Ibaraki without paying attention, and put the boy on his shoulders on his bed.

The moment the boy lay down, a silver name tag slipped out of his pocket and fell to the ground.Gin picked it up and took a look, and the big characters of "Ping An Genji" came into view.

This term inadvertently brought back Gin's memories of this research.

There are three main persons in charge of this research project, all surnamed Yuan. They are the supporters who proposed, carried out, and promoted the research project to continue to this day, but their names have never appeared on the organization's personnel list.

Be safe, Genji.

Gin frowned slightly holding the name tag, and after a few seconds, he turned to look at Ibaraki.

Ibaraki instantly became vigilant, and blurted out: "I didn't touch Shuten-douji!"

"...Who asked you this!"

So guilty, what did this monster do to Shuten-douji during the 3 minutes when he left with a knife?
