[Zhuge Cong, observing Shiho Miyano's expression, guessed what she was thinking and said...]
"It's not a treatment, just a short-term suppressive medication; it can't cure the condition."
Jiuwu Mountain is famous for its wine.
[Upon hearing this, Shiho Miyano understood what was happening and then spoke to Zhuge Cong.]
"Do you have any more of that drug? Could you give me some so I can study it?"
[Shiho Miyano is still a researcher; she's only busy in this office all day instead of in the lab because Zhuge Cong entrusted her with this task.]
"That's it, there was only a tiny bit left."
"Knock knock knock."
【“Come in.”】
Just as Zhuge Cong and Shiho Miyano were talking, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Then Zhuge Cong saw Vermouth walk in carrying a stack of documents.
"Ms. Miyano, we'll be leaving in twenty-five minutes."
"Is there anything else you need, boss?"
[Tsukasa Shishio, holding a briefcase and suitcase, stood at the door and spoke.]
"No need, Simba."
"I need a little while longer."
After Zhuge Cong and Shiho Miyano finished speaking, they exchanged a glance.
"It's like getting a divorce and neither of my kids want to stay with me."
[Zhuge Cong waved his hand and said, "Although Tsukasa Shishio and Vermouth were both assigned to Shiho Miyano by me, Tsukasa Shishio was sent by Zhuge Cong to protect Shiho Miyano, and Vermouth was assigned to Shiho Miyano along with Tsukasa Shishio to keep an eye on her."]
"Divorce? You're already thinking about having two kids before we're even divorced?"
[Shiho Miyano, without looking up from the documents, spoke, not because she felt her face flush and become hot after saying those words.]
"Two isn't enough; we need at least a full football team, eleven a side."
"Actually, I originally thought you two would get along very badly."
[Zhuge Cong looked at Vermouth and Shiho Miyano and said.]
[Zhuge Cong knew that Vermouth had worked at S.H.I.E.L.D. before joining, and he also knew that Shiho Miyano had worked there, so he wondered if it would be inappropriate to have Vermouth working alongside Shiho Miyano.]
However, after much thought, I still think it's probably possible. After all, Shishio Tsukasa is there to protect Shiho Miyano, and besides, the brewery was completely destroyed years ago.
To be honest, after learning more about it, he was quite surprised by how many undercover agents there were in the distillery. He had initially thought there were only a handful, but it turned out that at least half of them were involved in counterfeiting.
If all the fake liquor left here, the distillery might go bankrupt.
"Snap, crack."
Gin, the most loyal bottle of real liquor in the brewery, would have gone to deliver a helping hand to Shiho Miyano if it weren't for the fact that Zhuge Cong was a formidable figure, or if it were any ordinary family.
As for Vermouth, Gin didn't know whether it was an organization's mission or something else, so he didn't pay much attention to Vermouth joining S.H.I.E.L.D., but he still kept a watchful eye on her.
Now, the destruction of the distillery clearly shows that Vermouth truly betrayed them, and most importantly, it reflects the thought in Zhuge Cong's mind.
There are a lot of undercover agents in the distillery, at least half of them.
This made Gin somewhat unable to tolerate it.
You know, he killed several undercover agents, but if, according to Zhuge Cong, more than half of them were undercover agents, then it would probably take him a long time to kill them one by one.
Moreover, if what Zhuge Cong said is true, if all those undercover agents really leave, it will probably cause the organization a lot of trouble.
"Hmph, let's go."
"Boss, where are we going?"
Gin, seeing Vodka beside him, also began to have doubts. Vodka immediately realized what Gin was thinking and hurriedly said something.
"Boss, I'm not an undercover agent. You're watching me. I'm following you around the clock, boss."
"Hmph, I never said you were an undercover agent. I'm leaving."
"Kill the undercover agent, begin now."
Gin got into the car with a cold look in his eyes and opened the list of people he had suspected. Now Gin was sure those guys were undercover agents.
Meanwhile, the undercover agents inside the distillery were also having some ulterior motives.
He wondered if the person he had been scheming against was also an undercover agent. If that were the case, then he felt a bit foolish for scheming against himself all this time.
As a counterfeit liquor seller, he started trying to distinguish the other real and fake liquors so that Gin wouldn't suspect him and he could contact his superiors.
But those who actually drank the liquor suffered a bitter fate; with nearly half the organization's undercover agents, wouldn't most of their dirty secrets have been leaked?
Moreover, as a true Gin fan, I know to some extent that Gin hates undercover traitors the most.
He was probably driven to madness by the fact that at least half of the undercover agents were traitors.
Therefore, now genuine liquor not only needs to distinguish between genuine and fake liquor, but also worries that Gin might sell itself as fake liquor.
"Alright, I'm leaving now. There are still some of your personal belongings over there. See if you're planning to deal with them."
After speaking, Shiho Miyano got up and left with Tsukasa Shishio. Learning that Zhuge Cong's health had improved somewhat, even if only temporarily, made Shiho Miyano feel happy, and her steps became much lighter.
"So, do you want me to send someone to take you back, or do you want to drive yourself?"
[Vermouth finished tidying up the documents and said, seemingly asking Zhuge Cong, but she turned and left without looking back.]
Zhuge Cong walked over to the boxes piled up in the corner of the office and a huge model.
Zhuge Cong quickly rummaged through the box and found it contained mostly unnecessary items. He then got up and examined the enormous model.
To be honest, Zhuge Cong had looked at this model at least three thousand times, but just as he was about to order someone to throw it away, he suddenly noticed the words "The key to the future is here" written next to the model's frame.
[Zhuge Cong immediately recalled the words his father, Zhuge Yunhai, had said in a video he had watched.]
Then Zhuge Cong lifted the curtain that was covering half of the model, and looking at the architecture on the model, he felt a lot of wonderful ideas pop into his mind.
[Then Zhuge Cong stepped back a few paces, cupped his right hand as a telescope, and looked at the giant, brightly lit globe on the model.]
In an instant, a bold idea popped into Zhuge Cong's mind.
Without any hesitation, Zhuge Cong ordered his men to load the model onto his car and then sped home.
"So, after seeing that model, Zhuge Cong roughly understood what his father meant by changing the world and the problem that his father couldn't solve for the rest of his life?"
Looking at Zhuge Cong's excited expression and impatient look while driving, Yagami Light thought to himself.
L on the other side also began to guess what Zhuge Cong was thinking.
For people like Light Yagami and L, rather than slowly waiting for the content to be released through the light screen, they prefer to deduce it themselves and conduct more in-depth analysis.
"So, Zhuge Cong figured something out and even deliberately used his hand to look through the telescope at the Ark Reactor model."
"Model, model, model..."
L kept muttering about the model, as if trying to put himself in Zhuge Cong's shoes.
"Just put two fire element cards to form a double fire synergy and increase attack power, then put two lightning element cards to deal high burst damage."
"You can't play it like that. There are only so many slots. Although three fires are powerful and fire element is very effective against water element, the enemy isn't stupid. They won't just blindly play a single water element card."
"I estimate that the deck will have two Earth and two Water cards paired with one Wind card. Your two Fire and two Thunder cards won't do any good, no matter what attribute you put on the remaining card."
L suddenly heard two people behind him discussing something while they were playing games. After all, some people don't pay much attention to the screen and will watch the screen while playing games.
The two guys behind L were discussing the latest card game, and L didn't pay much attention. But when they heard about fire and lightning elements, an idea popped into L's mind.
The elements, the new elements, those models are all rough shapes of the new elements, but there are many distracting elements. Just eliminate the distracting elements and find the key buildings. As for the model of the giant globe with the highlight that Zhuge Cong saw, it is probably the atomic nucleus.
"If this is truly a completely new element, then you—no, you and your father—are truly the ones who will change the world."
L also thought that if it really was a completely new element, it probably wouldn't be bad, and might even be very powerful and practical.
"Jarvis, could you please create a digital wireframe structure? I need an operable projector."
After taking the model home, Zhuge Cong placed it in his underground laboratory.
Jarvis immediately scanned the model and then reconstructed it one-to-one using projection.
"Sir, the Zhuge Expo model has been scanned."
[Zhuge Cong looked at the projection, raised his hand, and the projection rose up accordingly. He then moved the projection to an open space.]
[Then Zhuge Cong snapped his fingers, turning the model upright to recreate what he had seen in his office.]
"Jarvis, tell me, what does it remind you of? I think it looks a lot like an atom, with the nucleus right here."
[Zhuge Cong looked at the raised light screen and spoke, then pointed to the giant, brightly lit projector in the center of the model.]
[Then Zhuge Cong took out the giant, high-gloss globe and examined it closely.]
"Delete all the roads."
"What are you doing, sir?"
[Zhuge Cong deleted all the roads from the model, and Jarvis asked him about it. This wasn't out of curiosity, but rather Jarvis's way of helping Zhuge Cong more easily.]
