Moreover, Wei Que's current state looks very strange. If the other party were to make any big moves in the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.

She's figured it out now; if she can't escape it, then so be it.

Didn't we anticipate this outcome from the very beginning?

It seems that even she is afraid when faced with death.

Yusuke Suzuki hasn't stopped since he got out of the taxi.

If he hadn't heard the gunshot, he would have continued searching everywhere.

Just as the burst of power was about to end.

The Catera ahead suddenly turned and headed towards the mountain road.

Keep running!

My current physical strength is only just over halfway gone!

After half an hour.

Vermouth was panting as she looked at the text on her phone screen.

It seems I've given you too much freedom. Come back to me, Vermouth.

"I'm afraid I can't go back, Boss."

After catching her breath, she looked to her side. "Now that I'm left with this child, what am I supposed to do with this self-important brat?"

She figured she could lure Wei Que away herself. Although she didn't think Wei Que would do anything to Conan, the chaotic atmosphere she felt at the dock earlier still made her uneasy.

Just then, Vermouth, who was about to touch Conan's face, suddenly noticed something.

She pulled out a dagger and cut open Conan's clothes, discovering the electrocardiogram monitoring device inside.

this......

There were also transmitters and recorders.

Could it be that the phone call was recorded?!

She quickly reached out to dismantle the equipment.

You'd better not do that.

Conan, who had already woken up, spoke quietly, "Once you pull it out, the signals from my heart will stop immediately. Based on the text message you just sent to your boss, my partner can find out his location."

"Even if you kill me now, it won't make a difference."

“My companions are waiting for your answer,” Conan said, pulling the wire connecting the electrodes. “Alright, take me to your boss, and we’ll settle this properly!”

Do you really think it's that easy to find the Boss?

What looks like a clue is actually the tentacles that are pulling you into the darkness.

Vermouth sighed inwardly as she looked at Conan's expression.

The bird will probably arrive soon, and I still have a dose of hypnotic gas left.

Do I really have to give up everything to face that man?

Vermouth didn't hesitate much.

Like Conan, it's time for her to settle things with Wei Que.

Just as she was about to take out the hypnotic gas, a black hand suddenly reached in through the car window on Conan's side.

With a simple chop to the neck, Conan immediately disconnected.

"I'll give you the time it takes to smoke one more cigarette. Cherish it, Vermouth."

Standing outside the car door, Yusuke Suzuki ripped off his wig and disguise, took out a cigarette, lit it, and walked a few meters away.

Chapter 418 The Moonlight Was a Little Dazzling

Vermouth quickly recovered from her daze.

With the electrodes still attached to Conan, his so-called accomplices will not make any moves.

After carefully examining the device's construction, Vermouth precisely destroyed the recorder's memory card.

None of these actions lasted more than half a minute.

"Would you harm this child?"

She called out to the figure outside the car window and quickly received a reply.

“I never intended to do anything to him from the beginning. You're the one who pushed me to this point step by step.”

"So you'd let him go if I died?"

There was no reply this time, but in Vermouth's eyes, she could only take it as tacit agreement.

Even if Wei Que wanted to do something, she was powerless to interfere at the moment.

Her own life was in the other party's hands!

Vermouth turned her head and looked carefully at Conan's face, a rare tenderness appearing on her face.

Yukiko, you really did raise a good son.

Thinking about it, she wanted to reach out and touch the other person's face, but then she withdrew her hand and instead kissed the other person's forehead.

This is the last time I'll see you, Shinichi.

Although there was still time, she opened the car door and got out, then threw the hypnotic gas into the car.

Sleep a little longer.

"Let's go."

Vermouth approached Yusuke Suzuki, but the height difference meant she could only look up at his profile.

From this angle, the full moon, like a silver platter, is positioned right behind his head.

"You choose the burial plot."

Yusuke Suzuki, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, gestured for the other man to lead the way.

Vermouth had no choice but to head deeper into the jungle.

If possible, she hopes to stay as far away from Shinichi Kudo as possible.

Yusuke Suzuki followed silently behind, without urging him on.

The two walked through the woods in the moonlight.

After walking for an unknown distance, Vermouth suddenly stopped.

"Is this here?"

Yusuke Suzuki looked around.

This location carries a certain air of destiny.

The dense jungle has cleared out a nearly round clearing.

Under the bright moonlight, it appeared brighter than elsewhere.

"Well, this is it."

Vermouth walked to the center of the open space and spread her arms to feel it.

“The moonlight is indeed much gentler,” she said, tilting her head back and closing her eyes, seemingly quite relaxed. “Someone like me would never dare to do such a thing in the sunlight.”

"boom!"

Gunshots suddenly rang out in the silent woods.

A bullet pierced straight through Vermouth's left leg.

"Are you still gentle now?"

Yusuke Suzuki took out a silencer and attached it to the pistol. The cigarette in his mouth burned out naturally.

"Of course..."

Vermouth knelt on the ground in a disheveled state, her smile inexplicably poignant.

“Actually, I never wanted to come to this,” Yusuke Suzuki stepped forward, stomping on the grass. “You forced me to do this.”

As he said this, he was clearly suppressing something in his heart, and his voice trembled.

Vermouth turned her head and saw the madness in Yusuke Suzuki's eyes.

"Just think of me as a stubborn woman, Wei Que, no, Yusuke."

"Go ahead and do it. My death will make you feel better."

Upon hearing this, Yusuke Suzuki pressed the muzzle of his gun against Vermouth's shoulder.

shot.

"You just need to listen to me."

The gun was moved to the right shoulder.

shot.

"It didn't have to come to this."

The gun was turned around again, this time aimed at her forehead.

While Vermouth was losing her senses due to the excruciating pain, she vaguely saw the distorted expression on Yusuke Suzuki's face.

However, the shot that would have finally freed her was delayed.

Her exhausted body collapsed to the ground.

The moonlight was a bit dazzling.

“I know everything. As long as you don’t cause trouble, I’ll keep doing my job and find a way to make sure you can give an account to the organization.”

"When the time is right, we'll take down Karasuma Renya and destroy the organization."

"I will also help you get a new identity so that you can live freely."
