I was framed for taking the civil service exam, so I joined the National Security Bureau

Chapter 263

After listening to Nishikawa Jiro's explanation, Sakurai nodded and said:

"This is very reasonable. Now we are in the final stage of research and development. No matter what, we must coordinate the forces of all parties and absolutely cannot make any mistakes at the last critical moment."

Nishikawa Jiro nodded solemnly to show his agreement, and then the two chatted about some other unimportant things.

After a while, Sakurai left first.

At this time, Zhang Xing and Geng Jianhui, who had been hiding in the box, were very tormented. Although they were specially trained national security personnel, it was also extremely difficult for them to maintain a posture for a long time in such a closed and narrow space for half an hour.

At this moment, the only hope of the two was that Nishikawa Jiro could leave this place as soon as possible.

After Sakurai left, Nishikawa Jiro sat on a chair in the medicine store to rest for a while. After about three to five minutes, he finally stood up.

Zhang Xing and Geng Jianhui both breathed a sigh of relief, secretly thinking that Nishikawa Jiro might be leaving soon.

However, to their surprise, after Nishikawa Jiro stood up, he did not walk towards the warehouse door, but carefully checked the medicine counter.

After Nishikawa Jiro browsed around the medicine cabinet several times, his eyes suddenly focused on a bottle of chemical agent, and his eyes became sharp and focused, as if he had found some important clues.

Then, he carefully reached out his hand, gently picked up the bottle of chemical agent, and brought it close to his eyes for a careful inspection. After a moment, his face suddenly changed, and his originally calm expression instantly became alert.

He quickly put the chemical agent in his hand back to its original place, then turned around abruptly, and his eyes scanned the entire medicine warehouse sharply.

This sudden move made Zhang Xing, who was hiding in the box, suddenly feel a sudden shock in his heart, and he secretly shouted in his heart: "Not good!"

Zhang Xing suddenly remembered that he had made a serious mistake. Before he and team leader Geng Jianhui entered this medicine warehouse, they had carefully observed the medicine shelf for a while.

At that time, Zhang Xing did not pay much attention and casually reached out to touch a bottle of chemical agent. Since he had just entered from the tunnel, his hands were inevitably stained with some dust.

Perhaps it was this small detail that was keenly captured by Jiro Nishikawa. The bottle of chemical agent may have been left with dust marks, which aroused his suspicion, so Jiro Nishikawa suddenly changed his face.

Zhang Xing cursed his carelessness in his heart and was secretly annoyed. But he knew that now was not the time to blame himself, and he had to react immediately, so he quickly adjusted his state and prepared for the battle.

Judging from Jiro Nishikawa's position as the vice president of the Panasonic Youth Association and the degree of trust in him by Junji Watanabe, it can be inferred that this person's vigilance and spy literacy are quite high. Therefore, if he had any doubts, he would definitely launch a comprehensive search in the warehouse. And once they started searching, the box he and Geng Jianhui hid would inevitably be discovered.

Although fighting with Jiro Nishikawa here might arouse the outsiders' vigilance, at this moment, Zhang Xing and Geng Jianhui had no other choice. Geng Jianhui seemed to understand this, and poked Zhang Xing lightly in the dark, signaling him to prepare for battle.

Outside, Jiro Nishikawa pulled out a pistol from his waist and carefully observed every corner of the drug warehouse.

A minute later, Jiro Nishikawa's eyes finally focused on the box where Zhang Xing and Geng Jianhui were hiding.

One step.

Two steps.

Three steps.

Zhang Xing's heart was beating wildly, as if it was about to jump out of his throat. He held an assault dagger tightly in his hand, nervously waiting for Jiro Nishikawa to come forward.

At the same time, he quickly simulated a variety of combat scenarios in his mind, thinking about the best response strategy. The ideal situation is to quickly solve Jiro Nishikawa with a dagger the moment he pushed open the box door, but doing so may cause a larger conflict.

However, as an experienced and well-trained spy, Jiro Nishikawa also held a gun in his hand. If he attacked directly with a dagger, not only would the success rate be low, but he might even be shot dead.

This strategy is extremely risky, but Zhang Xing has no other choice at this time. If he does not take action, he and Geng Jianhui will be controlled by Nishikawa Jiro, and their identities will be exposed, and all their efforts to explore the tunnel today will be in vain.

"Give it a try, and die!"

At this moment, Zhang Xing made up his mind to fight to the death with Nishikawa Jiro.

However, at this thrilling moment, footsteps suddenly came from outside the warehouse door.

After hearing the footsteps, Nishikawa Jiro immediately alertedHe stood up suddenly, reached his hand to his waist quickly, and grasped the handle of the pistol. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the door vigilantly. Soon, the door was pushed open, but when Jiro Nishikawa saw the person coming, a trace of surprise and confusion flashed in his eyes.

Unexpectedly, the person who came was Sakurai who had returned. Sakurai hurried into the room, and Jiro Kawanishi's heart sank, thinking that something urgent had happened.

Sakurai walked to Kawanishi Jiro, who whispered, "Sakurai, why are you back again? What's the matter?"

Sakurai looked anxious, and she spoke to Kawanishi Jiro in a low voice. Kawanishi Jiro's expression became serious, his brows furrowed, and his eyes revealed worry and gloom. He asked Sakurai with a confirming tone:

"Did you see it clearly?"

Sakurai nodded as if to confirm:

"I saw it clearly. When I went to deliver the experimental report, I saw the two of them just coming out of the office. It seemed that they had been talking in the office for a long time. Later, I saw them both on the ground together. I had a hunch that they must have something important when they went out."

"This is a great opportunity for you. They haven't gone far yet. , maybe you can find out something important if you follow him. "

Jiro Nishikawa's eyes exuded a solemn look, and he nodded seriously. However, when he turned around and prepared to leave, his steps suddenly stopped, turned his head and looked at Sakurai, and asked seriously:

"Are you the only one who usually comes to your drug warehouse?"

When Sakurai heard this, a trace of doubt flashed in her eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. She rolled her eyes and replied:

"Most of the time I come here alone. After all, I am responsible for the management and storage of the chemical agents here, so the keys are also in my hands. Of course, if I encounter a particularly busy or short-staffed situation, I may ask Kiku to come and help me get the medicine together."
