Conan: The Man Behind the Romance

Chapter 192 Vermouth’s hush money—accomplishing good things!
Kiyoko finished her opening remarks according to Yingsheng's instructions, and asked Vodka in a cold tone what had happened.

Vodka was silent for a few breaths: "Your identity has been exposed, Vermouth. Someone set an ambush near Xuesong Qingzi's house, and my brother was shot."

"Is the problem serious? Do you need my support?"

"No need, just keep an eye on Shirley. You heard what Big Brother said before. This incident may be related to Miyano Akemi. It's a serial trap."

"Shirley can't run away. With the security level of the institute, even if Kaito Kidd comes, he can't escape." Kiyoko paused, "Speaking of Miyano Akemi, could this matter be related to Akai Shuichi? It's not impossible for the FBI to find someone who can disguise himself."

"I don't know. We'll talk about this later. If you have anything else to say, hurry up."

Vodka's tone was very impatient, and in the background there was a series of rapid honking of horns and even curses from passers-by.

"Is Gin seriously injured?" Kiyoko asked.

"Headshot, understand? Headshot! It's just a little bit away from hitting the center of the forehead!" Vodka almost shouted this, but in a moment he forced himself to suppress it and gritted his teeth and said, "Brother will not die, absolutely not!"

Qingzi was silent for a few breaths: "I'll wait for you at the research institute. There is no need to carry out the previous mission."

"I won't go to the institute. It's not safe there. Also, Vermouth, you are still using that disgusting voice. Are you really in love with that little detective? Don't forget your identity!"

"You're too excited, Vodka, just focus on driving, that's all." Qingzi's voice remained calm.

After that, hang up the phone.

In a certain overseas boutique, Qingzi lingered among the dazzling goods like a butterfly, her sweet smile more dazzling than the diamond lightly touched by her fingertips.

"Hinabu-kun, are you underestimating Mr. Vodka a little bit?"

"There are indeed some. I originally wanted to get rid of them after knowing their locations, but the topic couldn't be extended in this direction. The same goes for Miyano Akemi and Akai Shuichi. Now Vodka only has Gin in his mind and won't respond at all."

"Didn't you guess, Hotaru-kun, that the police relied on a reverse tracing program to find you in the bakery last time?"

"Yes, but I can't get it. Besides, Vodka is like this now. If you call him again later, you will be discovered at a glance."

"It should be about the same now. Even if Vermouth and Gin didn't keep in touch all the time before, once they established contact afterwards, they would immediately find something wrong and there would be another Sekizuki Kiyoko."

"First, I will ensure that their communications are completely disconnected at that time. Second, we will not allow them to establish any contact."

"Hmm? So, Hotaru-kun sent people to follow Gin, and they will definitely die?"

"No, Vodka's driving skills were so good that he easily shook off the police. I couldn't find anyone who could catch him for a while."

"So we want to cut off the connection in the direction of Vermouth?"

Qingzi became more and more confused: "Is he going to let Miss Shirley kill her? Is this possibility really possible? Or does Mr. Yingsheng want to take Miss Lan to break into the research institute, kill Vermouth, and take Miss Shirley away?"

"Breaking in by force is too rough. This is not my style."

Yingsheng smiled and said, "Call Miyano Akemi and tell her that this is all entirely under your control and Kudo Shinichi has no idea. If they can agree to one of your requests, then you will help Shirley escape."

Thirty seconds later, Miyano Akemi asked the question in a deep voice:

"any request?"

"From now on, you are not allowed to get close to Kudo-kun. No, you must show your ill will to him directly." Kiyoko smiled slightly, "I have an interesting idea, I hope you can tell your sister.

Don't worry, Gin is in a coma even if he's not dead, you can talk to him without worrying about being eavesdropped." A minute later, Miyano Akemi pressed the dial button with trembling fingers. After Miyano Shiho called her twice on the phone, she gritted her teeth and said calmly:

"Shiho, I have something very important to tell you. Whether you agree or not, even if you want to blame me or scold me, wait until I finish speaking."

In the sterile buffer zone, Miyano Shiho's eyes moved slightly: "Sister, you can say it, as long as you are not trying to persuade me to leave the organization."

She meant, beware of eavesdropping.

Miyano Akemi also understood immediately and said hurriedly: "Gin was ambushed and shot in the head. He can't monitor us now."

"what?!"

Miyano Shiho's heart trembled, but she quickly calmed down and asked questions one after another: "Who did it? How do you know, sister? Is this certain?"

"It was Yuzuki Kiyoko. She arranged everything. She was the one who told me that you could be rescued." Miyano Akemi sighed. "As for confirmation, she said that we could call Gin to see what his situation is."

Upon hearing this, Miyano Shiho immediately picked up a mobile phone from the table next to her. It was from Junerick.

Turn on the screen and there is a password.

Miyano Shiho entered her birthday and started.

She called Gin, and the call was connected half a minute later. Vodka's voice was so rude that it exploded:
"If you have anything to say, tell me!"

"It's a research matter and needs to be reported." Miyano Shiho's heart was slightly moved, but her tone was calm.

"Shirley? We'll talk about that later."

beep beep-

Vodka hung up the phone on his own initiative.

This was the first time that Miyano Shiho had seen Vodka in such an impatient state. She immediately became somewhat certain about what her sister said about Gin being attacked, and returned to her phone:
"Sister, tell me."

Miyano Akemi took a deep breath and said, "Shiho, Xuesong Kiyoko... likes Kudo-kun very much. She confessed to him but was rejected. Kudo-kun said he was sorry and that he only saw your shadow in her.

After that, she investigated you and learned about your current situation. She said she could help you escape, but the premise was that you must never get close to Kudo-kun again and show any ill will towards him, and...

Help her accomplish something."

Miyano Shiho's blue eyes suddenly rippled. The scene she saw in the coffee shop suddenly appeared in her eyes. She finally smiled slightly:
"She doesn't need to think so much. They are a perfect match. Sister, what's the matter?"

"Shiho, you have to agree first. Don't get too excited after hearing what's going to happen next. Xuesong Kiyoko's mind is not normal anymore. Even if you think it's too much, don't take it to heart."

Hearing that Miyano Akemi was giving herself a shot of prevention again, Miyano Shiho became more and more confused:

"I'll try my best, sis. What is it?"

Miyano Akemi made up her mind: "Xedomatsu Kiyoko asked you to call Kudo Shinichi to the laboratory, and then release that type of drug in the air, so that the two of them can...can...make good things happen!"

"!!!!!!"

Miyano Shiho's eyes widened: "What?!"
