Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 220 Bei Xia: You didn’t say you had a date with someone else

Gin and Vermouth looked at each other, and no one spoke for a while.

The atmosphere gradually became tense in silence...

“…Um, Sister Vermouth, how about you take a seat first?”

Vodka said weakly, and helped Vermouth push the chair out.

He just didn't understand why the atmosphere would become so awkward every time these two met... What was wrong with the atmosphere?
"Thank you, Vodka~"

Vermouth smiled at the vodka and sat down leisurely.

Gin shook his glass silently but didn't drink. "What did you call me here for this time?"

“Well, I just wanted to ask you to come over for a drink.” Vermouth tied up her hair and said, “But today I encountered something that I am more concerned about, about——”

"Oh my friend! I finally found you~"

A warm greeting interrupted Vermouth's words.

Gin's eye twitched and he looked at someone who was walking towards him with a big box, his expression speechless.

Does this guy really take his baby Finny with him wherever he goes?
Vodka also looked back.

Isn't this... Chablis?
Chablis waved to them generously and strode over carrying his baby Finny.

But his eyesight was probably not very good. Only after he got closer did he see Vermouth looking at him with a dazed look on her face.

Belmode: "..."

Damn, could this guy be that crazy bartender?

"...Oh! You are, dear Miss 'Thousand-Faced Witch'?" Chablis was also slightly startled, and then quickly put his dear Finnie on the ground and straightened his collar, "Miss Vermouth, please forgive my rudeness."

"It's okay, Chablis... I've heard a lot about you."

Vermouth smiled wryly and drank the martini in front of Gin.

Gentleman Chablis smiled and sat down in the vacant seat.

Then the two of them looked at Gin who remained silent:

"I say, you didn't seem to tell me that you had an appointment with someone else?" Vermouth's eyes were full of resentment.

It would be fine if he just brought some vodka, but he also brought this crazy bottle of liquor. How could he be a pimp for Gin?

"My dear friend, why didn't you tell me in advance that there was such a beautiful lady here?"

Chablis also complained.

He didn't even dress himself up properly...now he made a fool of himself in front of the ladies.

Gin frowned, "Didn't I say I was going to bring someone with me?"

"...So Vodka isn't considered a human being, right?" Vermouth pointed at Vodka speechlessly.

Chablis also nodded frequently.

"..."

Gin glanced at Vodka in silence.

Boy, he forgot...

Vodka received the look from his elder brother: "..."

So what you mean is that he is not actually a human being?

The atmosphere was tense again.

After a long while, when the real bartender served them all the drinks, Gin looked at Vermouth:

"Okay, you guys can talk about what you want to say."

He raised his chin towards Vermouth, motioning for her to go first.

Chablis narrowed his eyes, sat up straight, and made a please-you gesture. Gin disliked Chablis in every way, but the good thing about this guy was that he was particularly gentlemanly, in every sense...

"Well, since everyone is here."

Vermouth glanced at them and smiled, "It's rare that several of us who are currently in Japan would get together."

"Okay, stop talking nonsense." Gin took a sip of whiskey, "The last time we got together, someone died."

Well, at the memorial service at the hotel, the three most senior people were gathered in one place...

Then Pisk was gone.

Vermouth rolled her eyes and said, "Okay, okay, you really have no sense of humor at all... Let me get down to business."

"Because I'm still in the investigation stage, I haven't reported these things to my boss yet, because I don't know if those people are coming for me or have other purposes."

She probably knew that Vodka shouldn't drink and drive, so she naturally pushed the first few glasses of wine in front of Vodka to herself.

Gin ignored this and raised his eyebrows: "You mean, the FBI has taken action?"

He remembered that there was an FBI agent named Judy hanging around near Vermouth before, and Shuichi Akai had also returned, but no one knew what he was doing.

However, he could only pretend that he didn't know about this, because no one who had requested to report the news had reported it to the FBI.

"FBI?"

A sharp light suddenly flashed in Chablis's eyes, "Why did those local dogs come to Japan?"

"Oh, don't be so excited, Chablis." Vermouth shook the glass and took a sip. "Have you ever heard of the 'Silver Bullet'? A traitor..."

"Oh? I've heard of it, but I didn't look into it in detail."

Chablis smiled apologetically, "Would it be convenient for Miss Vermouth to explain it to me?"

Vermouth didn't speak immediately, but looked at Gin with a smile, "Should I say it? Or should you?"

Gin rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Are you still trying to shirk responsibility for this? Whoever speaks first will be the one to say no.

Seeing that Vermouth seemed to want him to describe it, Gin didn't care. He leaned back in his chair and said calmly: "That man used to be my subordinate, codenamed 'Rye', his real name is Akai Shuichi, and he was an undercover agent of the FBI in the organization."

This incident was widely reported at the time, and Arrack, who recommended Shuichi Akai, seemed to have been removed from the stage by the boss... He didn't believe that Chablis didn't know about it and was just playing dumb.

Chablis narrowed his eyes and said meaningfully, "It's your men, Gin~"

"Yeah." Gin grinned at him, revealing his sharp fangs. "So don't underestimate him. Vermouth has suffered at the hands of this guy."

"...I'm telling you, why are you exposing my scars?" Vermouth wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction.

She was shot by Akai Shuichi, but luckily she managed to escape...

But it's embarrassing, isn't it?
Gin snorted, "Otherwise I'm afraid this guy doesn't know the seriousness of the matter."

This Chablis kept staring at him instead of the FBI guy...so unprofessional.

"Okay, okay~" Chablis retracted his fierce look and showed a harmless smile, "So, why did the FBI come to Japan? What do they want to do?"

"I'm investigating, too."

Vermouth rubbed his chin, "It has been confirmed that some people are coming for me. I guess I was targeted when I targeted Akai Shuichi last time."

"As for the others, it seems that they have other actions..."

Vermouth pondered for a while before remembering what she wanted to tell Gin just now. She turned to look at her blind date and said, "By the way, I want to tell you about some people I met this morning... They are very strange."

"What?" Gin tilted his head.

"Besides the FBI agent I know, there are three other people that I'm concerned about." Vermouth's face was a little solemn, "and two of them disappeared after that without me noticing."
