“I just thought of something.” Vermouth chuckled softly, her voice alluring. “What, judging from your expression, are you planning to do something to me? If you’re willing, I won’t resist.”

"Hey, what are you two doing in the car?" A black Porsche 356A reversed from the front, and Volta shouted, "Are you doing something weird?"

“We were just having a really good chat, and Galiano got so excited that he stopped the car,” Vermouth said with a smile.

"Oh...I see." Vodka gave Gachen a strange look. "By the way, Galiano, my brother said he's going to your house for dinner, which is a good opportunity to welcome Vermouth."

"You haven't eaten?" Jia Chen couldn't help but ask. "Or does Gin want to eat Chinese food?"

“Of course, it’s because my brother wants to eat what you make…” Vodka said, then seemed to realize something and quickly changed his words, “to welcome Vermouth.”

Jia Chen: "Drive the way, and I'll follow behind."

After saying that, the Porsche 356A slowly drove off ahead.

Jia Chen started the car and followed behind.

He abandoned his previous idea, considering that Vermouth had just learned his true identity.

That gentleman still values ​​Vermouth highly.

Moreover, the other party also knew a lot of information about the organization.

Once you've maxed out your Observation Haki, then you can train and control it.

Anyway, the other party also harbored resentment towards the organization subconsciously.

"Your emotions were a bit off just now, and you made me feel a little dangerous," Jia Chen said. "What were you thinking just now?"

“Secrets make a woman woman,” Vermouth said with a smile.

However, he leaned stiffly against the back of the chair, trying his best to suppress the rise and fall of his chest.

The feeling she just experienced brought her back to the desperate situation of being experimented on in the laboratory, a terrifying experience with no way out.

Galliano could sense it just by using his senses, so... she should reduce her contact with Ran Mouri to avoid Galliano noticing anything.

What is most frightening is the unknown, because Vermouth doesn't know whether Gachen knew the source of her killing intent.

She hoped that Galiano wouldn't understand these feelings, so that he wouldn't realize how much she cared for Ran.

If she really found out, it would be like someone had grasped her greatest weakness, and her life and death would be out of her own hands.

“Old riddle teller…” Jia Chen glanced at Vermouth in the rearview mirror.

Vermouth: "???"

Inside the villa, Vermouth was walking around in purple slippers.

"Oh my, isn't this the same villa as before?" Vermouth looked the villa over. "It's just that all the furniture has been replaced with new ones."

Upon hearing this, Vodka, who was sitting on the sofa drinking, downed another glass in one gulp.

He almost forgot that the villa had been given to Jia Chen, but... he hadn't asked for the furniture payment yet.

This has left him without any money to support his idol.

After a while, the group sat down at the dining table to eat.

"I didn't expect Galiano's cooking skills to be so good." Vermouth saw that he was still full of energy after eating a lot of vodka, so she picked up her chopsticks and took a bite.

"Of course." Vodka picked up his beer and chugged it down. "Big Brother especially likes it too."

"Hmph..." Gin snorted coldly, said nothing, and ate quietly.

However, the cold air around has decreased a bit, and it's clear that... Gin also enjoys good food.

Scrooge sat in his seat, eating, occasionally observing Vermouth.

Vodka said the other party was dangerous.

Although he was somewhat curious, Shi Kaobing did not ask any further questions.

She now has a pretty good understanding of the organization's situation, and the other party must have a mission to complete upon returning.

Asking too many questions could lead to very bad results (for Li Hao).

"As for the recipe, I also sent a copy to Scobin," Jia Chen said while eating. "If you want to try it, just ask Scobin for it."

Shi Kaobing: "...

So she's now completely a secretary. She's the one running "Who's Xiao Hei" in Jia Chen, and she'll still be cooking the meals.

So after that, does that mean I'll be working as a secretary?

"That's great." Vodka nodded, picked up his rice bowl, and asked, "Who wants to eat rice? I'll get some."

Seeing that everyone was shaking their heads, Vodka's lips curled into a slight smile.

All the other Chinese dishes are made with our own spicy wheat.

Vermouth, however, is somewhat different.

Gin suddenly fell silent, while Ganfan... Vodka became much more cheerful, still looking rather simple-minded, and there was also Scrooge, who occasionally revealed a resentful look in his eyes.

This feels... strangely harmonious and warm.

Something's not right.

Chapter 142 The Reaction Begins

As night fell, and after midnight, the temperature plummeted.

Jia Chen's footsteps were very light, and she went upstairs almost silently.

After opening the door, I went into the room, took off my coat, and hung it on the hanger.

At this moment, Ai was kneeling on the bed wearing a soft burgundy nightgown, her eyes somewhat unfocused, lost in thought.

"Why did you wake up in the middle of the night?" Jia Chen poured a glass of water, handed it to Xiao Ai, and then sat on the bed.

“I…” Ai Haibara took the water glass and then shook her head.

She was unsure whether to tell Jia Chen about her dream, so she picked up her water glass and took a small sip.

Her gaze flickered with melancholy from time to time. After a while, Ai Haibara's eyebrows curved into a smile, a warm glow spreading across her usually cold and aloof face. Her voice, no longer sharp and cold, softened into a gentle, sweet tone as she said, "Garchen... thank you for taking care of me all this time, I..."

"Had a nightmare?" Jia Chen interrupted Ai, who was behaving unusually.

Now that Vermouth is back, according to the original storyline... the incident where Ai was captured is about to begin.

Ai Haibara looked at Jia Chen 530 with some surprise, then realized that she had been sleeping soundly when she was suddenly awakened... and thought about it, she must have had a nightmare.

"Don't even think about getting involved in any cases these days." Jia Chen reached out and ruffled Xiao Ai's brown hair. "Forget it, just don't go to school."

Ai Haibara: "...

It was just a nightmare. Judging from Jia Chen's expression, he's really making a mountain out of a molehill.

However... my initial fear and tension suddenly eased after seeing Jia Chen.

"It's just a dream." Ai looked at Jia Chen, who was sitting next to her with his head down in thought, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless. She reached out her little hand and pinched Jia Chen's nose.

"Yes, I know." Jia Chen nodded. "Don't play any detective games lately."

He remembered that the incident in the original storyline involved encountering Gin's car, then chasing him, which led to him getting into danger.

Ai Haibara nodded, staring at Gatsuki, and said something that could be misunderstood, "Shall we go to sleep now?"

After hearing this, Jia Chen fell silent for a moment. Only now did he realize that Ai's appearance at this moment was somewhat alluring.

A certain tea-colored little girl knelt on the bed, her wine-red pajamas seemingly not properly fastened, one side slipping down slightly to reveal her soft, fair shoulder. Combined with Ai's delicate yet somewhat aloof expression, it was simply...

At this moment, Ai realized that Jia Chen's gaze had been fixed on her. She looked down at her pajamas, her earlobes turned red, and she quickly lifted them up.

Then... I remembered what Jia Chen had said to Conan through a metaphor before...

Thinking about this, all sorts of images kept popping into my head.

Ai Haibara secretly glanced at Gatsuki's strong, lean body, and then felt a burning sensation in her nose.

She quickly burrowed into the covers, turning to her side so that Jia Chen wouldn't see her expression.

I've only had this one nightmare recently... most of the time...

Jia Chen was a little surprised. Normally, Ai would blush and call him a perverted wolf in a sweet voice, then he would get into bed, Ai would struggle a little for a while, and then give in and hug him to sleep.

Although the process was tedious,... there was a special feeling about it.

A few minutes later, Jia Chen finished washing up, turned off the lights, and lay down on the bed.

He could clearly feel the brown-haired loli beside him trembling slightly, her body feeling hot and warm.

Jia Chen looked at the somewhat dark ceiling.

This is good, as it prevents Ai from thinking about other unpleasant or frightening things.

Ai, standing to the side... seemed unable to shake off that image from her mind.

Sensing the steady breathing beside her, Ai Haibara hesitated for a moment...

Reason and emotion are constantly at war.

Then...emotion overwhelmingly prevailed over reason.

Well, anyway, Jia Chen is my boyfriend, and he's a bit clueless, so he probably wouldn't mind if I did something naughty to him. 8
