It's All Bourbon's Fault

97-104, 106-110 need fixing The second time she encounters the mysterious Public Security officer who pinned her against a wall when they first met, Arakawa Mio fights him. While cursing Rum for ordering her to [infiltrate the National Police Agency], she lands two solid punches on the mysterious officer's head. Though this "Mr. Furuya" eventually lets her escape after a slip of the hand, that does nothing to stop Arakawa Mio from naming him her number-one nemesis. Back at the safe house, her number-two nemesis, Bourbon, greets her with a beaming smile. At this point, someone might ask: if they're nemeses, why are they living together? Hearing that question, Arakawa Mio wants nothing more than to punch her past self twice for praising Bourbon as "so sweet" when choosing a partner. The blond partner she picked herself is a complicated one. He points a gun at her head, then believes what she tells him; escapes with her by jumping off a bridge; plants a tracking device on her under the pretense of giving her a ride since they happen to be going the same way; and, just like her, holds down several jobs. Oh, and she goes by the codename Amaretto in the Organization, is a spy planted in the liquor business by an intelligence agency, has a brother who died young, and possesses a special ability. Her days of working hard half the time and slacking off the other half go by, until one day her brother, who has come back from the dead disguised as a pink-haired man with squinting eyes, invites her to the Kudo residence for a meeting about a joint investigation. In the crowd, Arakawa Mio finds herself face-to-face with that mysterious blond, dark-skinned Public Security officer, Mr. Furuya. After a moment's thought, she grits her teeth, seething with rage. "Your time is up, Rei Furuya!" Reader's Notes: 1. The main focus is the plot, and the romance is weird. There are author-created settings and timeline adjustments, so the logic may go flying out the window. 2. Matsuda and Hiromitsu survive, and the heroine has a special skill. Theme: World peace
