The Detective Conan's Luck-Changer: Ran Begs for Mercy at the Start

For example, Cohen, Chianti, Tequila, and Calvados, who were sitting on the left.

Upon hearing that Izuki Karuda had so many preferential treatments, he immediately began to protest and tease Vermouth.

"I didn't know you had this kind of hobby outside of work; even your colleagues know about it."

Izuki Shigeta glanced at Vermouth with an amused expression.

Bang Bang Bang!

Gunshots rang out, and several bullets flew toward the left side of the long table.

Although none of them hit anyone, the four people on the left immediately frowned.

"If anyone's unhappy, feel free to come and beat this guy up. I have no objection."

Vermouth said, "But if I hear any more of this gossip, you'd better watch your sleep tonight!"

If we're talking about who hates Izuki Karuta the most, Vermouth would definitely be at the top of the list.

Especially after what happened today, he felt an intense urge to tear Izuki Karita to pieces.

At this very moment, some people still say that she and Izuki Shigeda are a couple.

If it weren't for the fact that the speaker was a member with a liquor name, Vermouth would have wanted to kill him out of spite.

Upon realizing that Vermouth wasn't faking it, the others immediately dared not say another word.

"By the way, what's my code name?"

Izuki Karita asked with some curiosity.

The organization is called a distillery because upon joining, key members are given a wine name as a code name.

Even though Izuki Karuta is only a contract worker, her abilities are extraordinary.

We'll inevitably have to carry out missions in the future, so we'll need code names.

"..."

However, this time no one answered, and they fell into an inexplicable silence.

"Liqueur, chosen by the others, do you like it?"

A sly glint suddenly flashed in Shirley's eyes.

"No, no..."

Vermouth quickly denied it.

Gin's pupils contracted.

Bourbon's lips twitched.

"It's...brandy..."

Vermouth uttered the code name designated by the gentleman.

He then glared fiercely at Shirley.

Liqueurs are alcoholic beverages made with distilled spirits as a base, blended with various flavoring agents, and sweetened.

Rum, gin, vodka, and tequila,

These are all base spirits for liqueurs.

That is to say, almost everyone around him was one level above Izuki Karuta.

Further interpretation could even lead to...

In short, this is a name that would give Itake Karuta an easy opportunity to beat someone up.

"Isn't he a temporary worker?"

"Why is the code name Brandy?!"

This code name, however, displeased others.

Brandy is one of the world's six major distilled spirits.

It is on par with gin and rum.

Both of these individuals are among the most important core members of the organization.

The reason why the higher-ups value Itake Karuta is self-evident.

"It doesn't sound good, change it."

"My code name is [Daughter's Red]!"

Izuki Karuta didn't care about brandy.

He immediately chose one he liked and had Vermouth replace it.

The others exchanged bewildered glances.

The name of the wine was personally bestowed by that gentleman, and it is a famous wine.

Many people in the organization strive to obtain the liquor.

The names of famous wines, on the other hand, represent power and countless riches.

This person actually doesn't want it?

"What kind of wine is 'Daughter Red'? I've never heard of it."

Sherry asked a question out of curiosity.

Izuki Shizuta smiled without saying a word, offering no explanation.

This is the Koshu University campus centered around the cherry blossom country.

Other countries in the world, even those with the same name, are all very different from those I knew in my previous life.

I suspect that only Izuki Karuta knows that Nu'erhong is a type of rice wine.

Thinking of this, Izuki Karita felt a symbolic moment of sadness.

"If there's nothing else, I'd like to eat. Vermouth, lead the way."

Then Izuki Karuta got hungry.

"If you want to eat, go eat it yourself. What does it have to do with me?!"

Vermouth snorted coldly, her disdain undisguised.

"If I go out at this time, will dinner be provided?"

"...If you dare to eat, I'll provide meals!"

Izuki Karuta took out a voice recorder.

Press the play button to hear what Vermouth said earlier.

Belmode:......

Everyone present:...

Shirley's lips couldn't help but curl upwards.

This was the first time I'd ever seen Vermouth get the short end of the stick in front of a man.

30 minutes later,

In a high-end hotel in Beika City,

Located next to the floor-to-ceiling transparent glass on the twentieth floor,

Izuki Karuta and Vermouth sat on opposite sides of the dining table.

Actually, before leaving that abandoned factory,

Izuki Karuta asked Sherry if she wanted to come along.

However, under the wary gazes of Gin and Vodka,

Shirley declined the invitation to dinner, saying she had work to do.

Then, Izuki Karuda arrived at the hotel with her driver, Vermouth.

After looking at the menu, Izuki Karuta began reciting the names of the dishes as if she were reading them aloud:

What steak, what pasta, what fish, what vegetables, what soup...

I ordered almost everything on the menu page.

This casual, almost reckless ordering made Vermouth across from him twitch at the corner of her eye.

To avoid being harassed by Itsuki Karuda, she specifically chose this upscale hotel.

The problem is that the prices at high-end hotels are also very high-end.

High-end is also synonymous with expensive.

"You ordered so much, can you finish it all? Are you going to take it all home?"

"Who can fill their stomach if the portions at these Western restaurants are so small? If you don't order a lot of food, how can you eat your fill?"

Izuki Karita spoke with righteous indignation.
