Chapter 557 - Chapter 557: All the Cadres of That Organization Are Double Agents

"Eh? So you and your sister only know two cadres?"

Chika's eyes widened as she looked at Shiho with surprise.

Shiho could only nod helplessly.

"Actually, I have always been very curious why, as a key member of the organization, I never had contact with any other cadres."

"It was only when the god told me that our parents had hidden a research Key of Light for my sister and me that I understood why the organization was so lenient with us."

"All the reasons lie in the research of APTX."

While in the organization, Shiho never understood why the only people she could contact were Gin and Vodka.

Although she had heard other people's names, it was only limited to hearing their names.

She truly knew nothing else, even less than her sister.

"Because the only person capable of researching immortality was Miyano Shiho, for that organization, Miyano Shiho was someone they absolutely needed to find."

"And because of Shiho's uniqueness, the organization restricted her living space within their control. On one hand, it was to ensure Shiho's safety, and also to prevent other members of the organization from contacting her."

Sakuya analyzed seriously. Logically speaking, this arrangement was indeed very reasonable.

"No wonder."

"The people in that organization must have witnessed special circumstances and gone through many people's practices before confirming this point. In order to completely control the research, they took special care of you."

Saying this, Sakuya looked at Akemi with a clear understanding.

"No wonder you did not receive an overly severe punishment even after bringing in the undercover agent."

"The organization must have kept you to stabilize Shiho. Even if you did some excessive things, they did not immediately act against you."

"I think the bank robbery was probably a deliberately impossible mission arranged by the organization for you, to stall you and keep you quiet for a while."

Analyzing from the results, the 1 billion yen mission Akemi was assigned back then was not necessarily a death mission.

Akemi nodded slightly.

"Hmm, I think even if I had failed the mission back then, Gin probably would not have killed me. After all, Shiho is the only one who can continue the APTX research, and they could not bear to lay a hand on the two of us."

"However, we did not know that at the time."

Indeed, just as Akemi said, she did not know about this at the time, nor did she realize how important the sisters were in the organization's eyes.

"Well, after all, that organization still hides some things quite well."

Sakuya was not very surprised to hear this answer.

"They probably do not know what the Sefirot is, but they are very clear that the condition for immortality is the research of that drug. Since it concerns the foundation of the organization, they will naturally hide it well."

"However, if Shiho does not know the detailed information about the organization, then we can only find a more authoritative source of information."

At four in the afternoon, after Ren and Nagi finished their game, everyone except Maria, who was in charge of dinner, gathered in front of Ren.

They asked him the questions they wanted to know.

"Huh? Cadres in that organization who are more likely to betray? That organization is infiltrated from top to bottom like a sieve. Except for Gin and Vodka who are somewhat useful, everyone else acts like a double agent."

If he had to say who in that organization was prone to betrayal, Ren thought about it and indeed found many.

Aside from Gin and Vodka, it felt like all other cadres had the potential to become traitors.

"That organization is really quite strange..."

Sakuya felt a bit speechless listening to Ren's words.

It did not feel like a very cohesive organization internally. Ren even called everyone in it double agents.

This evaluation was quite unique.

"Ren, I mean, who in that organization is most likely to betray? Not the undercover agents, but the cadres who are originally from the organization."

In that case, there was only one answer.

"In that case, it should be Vermouth."

"That woman is skilled at disguising others. Besides changing her voice, she can also use makeup, so she is also known as the Thousand-Faced Witch in that organization."

"Of course, she has another identity."

Ren looked toward the Miyano sisters as he said this.

"She was the initial experimental subject for APTX, and one of the few survivors."

"For this reason, her status in that organization is very special."

"According to the current changes in circumstances, perhaps her identity in the organization is almost equivalent to being unrestricted. Because she is the only survivor in the organization, she will always be regarded as valuable experimental data by them as a successful case."

"But because of this, the people she hates most are actually your parents, followed by the two of you."

The only survivor of the drug developed by their parents?

Neither Akemi nor Shiho had expected that there was actually a true experimental subject of that drug in the organization.

"No wonder the organization is so dedicated to the research of that drug."

Now Shiho finally understood why the organization put so much effort into drug research. The reason was that they had always known the drug was actually successful. The only thing missing was the probability of triggering the accidental effect when taking the drug.

"A delusional experimental result would not attract too much attention. The problem is that the possibility of that drug has been verified by a survivor."

With a successful case, it would naturally be taken seriously, even if the probability of the drug's occasional effect was truly very low.

But ultimately, it increased lifespan and extended youth, so it was inevitable that the organization would pay special attention to it.

"It was also because of the drug's success on Vermouth that she felt a particular aversion to the organization."

"However, why are you interested in this matter?"
