I'm in Conan, I'm not a gangster

Chapter 303 Spiral Test Tube (3 more)
Tokiwa Eisaku, carrying a black coded briefcase, hurriedly followed Vermouth through a bright corridor and finally entered a luxuriously decorated VIP room.

Inside the room, Rum was already sitting on a leather sofa, holding a glass of red wine in his hand and sipping it.

As soon as Tokiwa Eisaku entered the room, he couldn't help but complain, "Can't you let me play a few more rounds? Why do you have to come here now?"

While muttering, he walked to the wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of whiskey, and took a big gulp, as if trying to vent his unhappiness.

Rum glanced up at him, his tone calm but with unquestionable majesty: "We are here to do serious business this time, not to play."

He put down his glass and said, "But if something goes wrong, you won't see the sun tomorrow, understand?"

Although his tone was calm, the threat in his words instantly sobered Tokiwa Eisaku.

Tokiwa Eisaku's expression changed slightly, and he immediately put away his frivolous attitude and said quickly, "Don't worry, I still know the priorities! Didn't I bring all the boxes here?!!"

He put down his glass, placed the password briefcase on the table, and quickly entered a complex password in front of Rum.

With a slight "click", a keyhole appeared in the box.

Tokiwa Eisaku took out an exquisite key from his pocket, inserted it into one of the keyholes, twisted it gently, then looked up at Rum: "It's your turn."

Rum said nothing more. He took out an equally exquisite key from his pocket, inserted it into another keyhole, and turned it gently.

With two crisp mechanical sounds, the coded briefcase was finally fully opened.

Rum took out a spiral test tube from the box, which contained a blue liquid.

He looked at it carefully for a while, then looked up at Tokiwa Eisaku and asked, "How is the stability?"

Tokiwa Eisaku pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose and a proud smile appeared on his face: "After several improvements, the stability has been improved to 69 percent." There was a hint of pride in his tone, and he was obviously satisfied with his achievements.

Rum nodded, with a rare look of approval on his face: "I hope this performance will satisfy those rich people..." His eyes fell on the spiral test tube again, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing that everything had been explained, Tokiwa Eisaku couldn't wait to say, "I have nothing to do here, so I'll leave first." As he spoke, he walked towards the door, obviously not wanting to stay here for another second.

Rum did not stop him, but reminded him lightly: "Well, let's go! Remember to watch the time, otherwise don't blame me if you die." His tone was still calm, but the warning in his words made Tokiwa Eisaku pause slightly.

Tokiwa Eisaku nodded quickly and said "I know" as he quickly left the room, wanting to gamble a few more times before starting!

After Tokiwa Eisaku left, Vermouth, who was wearing an elegant black dress, came over and chuckled, "I guess I'll be the one to drug her this time, right?"

Rum handed her the spiral test tube in his hand and said, "You guessed it right, but there is no reward!"

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he was very much looking forward to what was about to happen!
Vermouth took the spiral test tube. Although she was extremely reluctant in her heart, she still maintained a decent smile on her face.

As she looked around, she asked, "But, you've made such a big move, how are you going to end it?"

Rum smiled slightly, as if he had already figured it out. He did not answer directly, but clapped his hands twice.

As he moved, the door of the room opened again, and a man wearing a gangster mask walked in.

He was tall, walked steadily, and his eyes beneath the mask revealed a fierce aura.

Belmode was shocked when she saw this scene, and said in surprise: "The gangster A-Zu? How did you contact him————"

Before she could finish her words, she saw several men wearing gangster masks walking into the room one after another.

They were of similar build and height, as if they were carved from the same mold.

Vermouth reacted immediately, with a flash of understanding in his eyes: "Are you planning to sink the ship and then put the blame on the gangster A-Zu?"

Rum smiled slightly, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, with a hint of pride in his tone: "Haha, this makes sense, doesn't it?"

Vermouth nodded, apparently approving of the plan: "That's true. That guy even blew up the Tokyo Tower, so it wouldn't be surprising if he blew up a ship... But as for the Suzuki Group..."

Rum waved his hand, signaling Belmode not to worry: "Don't worry, the insurance company will compensate in full!"

Seeing that Rum had made all the arrangements, Vermouth didn't say anything more.

She carefully put away the spiral test tube and turned to leave.

Just as she was about to leave the room, Rum's voice came from behind her again: "Remember, the people on the list must not be hurt by mistake!"

Vermouth didn't look back, but just said: "Are you still worried about me doing things?"

After leaving the room, the smile on Vermouth's face disappeared instantly, replaced by a solemn look.

She looked down at the spiral test tube in her hand, a complex wave of emotions welling up in her heart.

She sighed softly and whispered to herself, "Oh, I don't know how many people will die this time."

Vermouth was filled with helplessness and disgust, and even for a moment, she wanted to destroy the test tube in her hand. However, Vermouth knew very well that if she failed, Rum would definitely send other members of the organization to carry out this task.

The methods used by other members are far more cruel and crazy than hers.

Would they be so crazy as to use people not on the list as experimental subjects? She didn't dare to think about it.

"Let me do it..." Belmode murmured in a low voice, with a hint of determination in her eyes. At least, she could keep the casualties within a controllable range.

At the casino table.

Xiaolan saw that she had won again and cheered happily:

"Yeah! We won again!"

"Great, I didn't expect my luck to be so good."

"Including this one, I've won 13 games in a row!"

"........."

She happily took the chips that the dealer gave her from the table.

Shiraishi Hui saw that the chips in front of her had doubled in size.

In other words...she won 20 million yen!
No one has this luck.

"Xiaolan's luck is still as good as ever." His tone was somewhat envious!
Hibiki Eri nodded in agreement: "Yes... This child has been lucky since he was young. Whenever he participates in a lottery, he wins a prize."

She knew her daughter had good luck, but she didn’t expect it to be so good that she won thirteen times in a row! !

Looking back at myself...I have already lost almost half.

My luck is really bad.

Whether in gambling or in life, he lost miserably!
Thinking of this, she suddenly lost the mood to continue gambling.

After checking her watch, Hibiki Eri said to Xiaolan, "Lan, it's almost time. We should leave too."

"Okay, let's go!!" Xiaolan agreed without any hesitation.

It was as if she wasn't the one who had just won so much money.

However, other gamblers who followed suit kept persuading her: "Beauty, you are very lucky tonight, why don't you try a few more rounds?"

"Yes! Maybe you can win more money tonight than you can ever earn in your entire life!"

"Two more, two more!!"

"........."

Faced with other gamblers' attempts to keep her, Xiaolan refused and left with her chips.

After seeing her mother return all the chips to Shiraishi Hui, Xiaolan also stuffed all the chips in her hand to the other party.

"Give it all to me? Don't you plan to keep some?" Although Shiraishi Hui knew that Xiaolan was not the kind of person who was greedy for money, wasn't this too ungreedy?

"It's all for the experience, as for the money... forget it." Xiaolan shook her head repeatedly, not wanting the money she won from gambling. !
Hibiki Eri looked at her daughter with admiration and said with relief: "After experiencing the overnight wealth brought by gambling, many people can't stand earning only 200,000 or 300,000 yen a month."

"Xiaolan, you can resist the temptation of money, it's amazing!"

"Much better than your useless dad."

Xiaolan was very happy to get her mother's recognition, but she felt that her mother looked at her father with prejudice!

She wanted to say a few good words on behalf of Kogoro Mouri, but found herself at a loss for words.

After all, my dad does gamble on horses and play mahjong...

For a moment, her mood suddenly became depressed.

Shiraishi Hui didn't say anything, but asked them to wait a moment while she went to exchange the chips for money and deposited it into her own account.

After reuniting, the three left the casino and headed to the banquet hall.
