[Outside the interrogation room, the officer observing through the one-way glass shook his head at another older team member beside him.]
["How about it? You lost the bet?" The older team member seemed to have expected it and whispered:]
["You can tell at a glance that it's Jashinist Cult's group of lunatics again. Their brains have long been burned out by that set of evil doctrines, and pain and fear have extremely limited effect on them."]
["If you want such a tough guy to open his mouth, you can't just rely on toughness. This newcomer still needs some firepower and experience."]
[While the two were chatting in low voices, the crisp sound of a high-heeled shoe hitting the ground came from far and near, making it particularly clear in the silent corridor.]
[The two men immediately stopped talking, turned around quickly, stood at attention and saluted, their movements uniform, with obvious awe.]
[The visitor is a tall and graceful woman. She is wearing a well-tailored dark uniform, with the skirt open, revealing a white tight-fitting inner garment.]
[She has neat short orange hair, wears a pair of goggles that cover half of her face, and has an unpredictable smile at the corner of her mouth.]
[The most striking thing is that she exudes a strange temperament that mixes laziness, danger and extreme rationality.]
["What are you talking about?" Her voice was calm, even with a hint of laziness, but it made the two senior members tense up instantly.]
[The officer immediately responded respectfully: "Report Group Leader Makima! Nothing to talk about, just evaluating the interrogation performance of a newcomer."]
[Makima glanced through the one-way glass at Yuri, who was still trying in vain in the interrogation room, and Ishida Akira, who was still repeating the same sentence even though his body was bruised and bruised.]
[The mysterious arc at the corner of her mouth seemed to deepen.]
["Jashinist Cult's Believer!" She whispered to herself, as if savoring something, "I really need some more 'special' methods."]
[Her appearance is like a cold poisonous snake sliding into the already depressing space, seeming to freeze the air a bit.]
[Then, the iron door of the interrogation room was pushed open by her, and Makima walked in with calm steps, her high heels making clear echoes on the cold ground.]
[Her eyes fell directly on Yuri, who had just stopped torture and was still covered in sweat on his forehead.]
["Are you Yuri·Briar?" Her voice was calm, but with a penetrating power of Formless.]
[Yuri immediately stood up straight and saluted respectfully: "Hello, team leader!"]
[Makima did not respond to his salute. Instead, he took a few steps forward and was almost close to Yuri. The eyes behind the goggles seemed to wander around his young and handsome face, and the corners of his mouth raised a meaningful arc:]
["He's quite handsome!" Her voice was low, with a hint of lazy temptation, "Are you interested in being my dog?"]
[Yuri: "Huh?" He was completely confused, and his brain was unable to process this unexpected conversation.]
[When the officer on the side saw this, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he quickly stepped forward and interrupted bravely:]
["Group Leader Makima! The interrogation is still in progress. Do you want to deal with business first..."]
[Makima seemed to have just remembered it. He softly said "ah" and nodded: "You're right, business is more important."]
[She turned around and ordered to the people in the interrogation room: "You guys go to my office to gather first. I have important matters to convey to you later."]
["Yes!" The commander and another team member responded immediately as if they had been granted amnesty, and motioned for Yuri, who was still in a daze, to follow.]
[Several people filed out, and just as the heavy iron door was about to close, Yuri clearly heard Ishida Akira's heart-rending wails, full of extreme fear, coming from the interrogation room behind him:]
["I'll recruit! I'll recruit anything! Please let me go! You devil! Lord Jashin will definitely punish you!"]
["Ah!!!"]
[The desperation in that voice was completely different from the madness that had endured under his torture before, as if he had experienced some kind of mental torture that transcended physical pain.]
[Yuri followed the commander as he walked in the corridor, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Sir, Group Leader Makima, what kind of person is she? Is the 'dog' she just said a code name for some kind of operation?"]
[The officer's face became extremely serious, even with a trace of imperceptible fear. He lowered his voice, almost whispering:]
["Listen, Yuri, mark my words."]
["Group Leader Makima, she is a devilish woman with means you cannot see through or imagine."]
["You absolutely, never mess with her here, otherwise you will know what real hell is."]
[He paused and his tone became more serious: "Also, no matter what, never agree to be her 'dog'."]
["That is definitely not a code name, but it means that you will get a fate more terrifying than hell."]
[Yuri Listening to the commander's heartfelt warning and looking at the panic remaining in the other person's eyes, a chill involuntarily rose up from his spine, making him shudder.]
[Everyone waited quietly in the office for a moment, and soon, Makima opened the door and walked in.]
[She walked straight to the large office chair and sat down, casually putting her legs on the edge of the table, and looking at every member present.]
["Recently, you all have performed very well." She picked up the coffee that had been prepared on the table and took a sip.]
["Inside Kumogakure, those rats hiding in the shadows have been suppressed by us so that they dare not show up easily."]
["Thank you for your hard work."]
[Everyone hurriedly bowed and said: "I don't dare to be the leader. You are the team leader and you have good leadership!"]
[Makima smiled slightly, but that smile did not make people feel the slightest warmth:]
["However, I'm afraid the easy days are coming to an end. Next, we, Counterintelligence Unit, are about to face a real test."]
[She put down the coffee cup, her voice steady but like dropping a bomb:]
["According to reliable information, the legendary Spy and Kabuto Yakushi have now infiltrated Kumogakure."]
["What?!"]
["Kabuto Yakushi?!"]
["Hasn't he already retired?!"]
[There was an uncontrollable exclamation in the office, and everyone's faces were filled with shock and disbelief.]
[Even Yuri felt the huge sense of oppression brought by this name from the sudden change in the expressions of the commander and other senior members.]
["Look at what you look like now!" Makima's voice was still calm, but with a hint of sarcasm.]
["You are the elite of Kumogakure Counterespionage Group, one of the sharpest daggers in the village. Are you scared to death just by a name?"]
