Detective Conan: Becoming a Zaibatsu - Starting with Joining the Winery

Looking at the text message, Lin Mo fell into deep thought.

Is this another case from the original story?

Still part of the childhood trauma series...

But it's good!

It seems that a private doctor can be put in place, and it will be very easy for Asano to get things done.

As for why he wanted to win over the characters who appeared in the original work, the reason is actually quite simple: from his perspective as a time traveler, he could see through their personalities from the TV series in his previous life.

You can use it with more peace of mind!

After all, his system doesn't include loyalty checks, so using characters from the original work is better than using strangers.

Thinking about this, Lin Mo began to ponder silently.

Unfortunately, it's a pity.

Before Lin Mo could figure out a solution, the organization's phone rang again.

"Vermouth needs to get involved, be careful of that mystic; she'll contact you later, the two of you can discuss how to proceed. —Gin!"

Lin Mo frowned slightly as he read the new text message.

Vermouth?!

Isn't this a character that only appears in the Red and Black arc?

How the hell did they suddenly appear?

What about the plot? Don't you want it anymore?

Thinking of this, Lin Mo's lips twitched, and his mind instantly became a jumbled mess.

Everything's in chaos!

Thinking of the ever-changing witch in the original work, she is a very troublesome person, and she will definitely test me in various ways. So what kind of contact principle should I adopt with her?

Headache!

This is a real headache!

Lin Mo didn't need to think at all; he knew that this woman's temporary return was most likely to be to get close to him.

This isn't Lin Mo being narcissistic; it's simply obvious!

Otherwise, would Vermouth have come all the way back from the US for a few like those from Moonshadow Island?

Why would she participate in this mission? It couldn't be to demonstrate her loyalty to the organization, could it?

Almost instantly.

Countless plans flashed through his mind, but Lin Mo ultimately abandoned them all.

In the end, alas!

After a helpless sigh, Lin Mo decided to play it by ear.

"Dear Amaretto, Gin is definitely talking badly about me; please believe me, don't believe Gin; meet me tomorrow morning at 8:30, at Yokohama Port 31-6-12. —Vermouth!"

Looking at this new text message, Lin Mo had the expression of an old man on the subway.

What the hell?! What the hell?!

Is this woman in her fifties or sixties trying to act cute?

Thinking of this, Lin Mo almost rolled his eyes to the heavens!

There is much speculation about Vermouth's age, but given that Jodie Starling witnessed her parents' murder when she was 6 years old, Vermouth at that time would have been a mature and sexy woman in her thirties.

So the storyline begins this year, and the official statement clearly states that Jodie is 28 years old. In particular, it can be seen that Vermouth is at least 58 to 60 years old.

Thinking about this made Lin Mo feel extremely uncomfortable!

An 18-year-old girl being coquettish is cute, but a 60-year-old grandmother being coquettish is terrifying, even if the woman is very sexy and beautiful.

"Lin Mojun, dinner's ready."

"That's the organization's phone. Does this mean they're on another mission?"

As Akemi Miyano came out carrying the food, she couldn't help but ask a question when she saw the phone in Lin Mo's hand.

And, in response to this.

Lin Mo didn't hide anything: "A troublesome fellow has arrived, Vermouth!"

"It's her!" Miyano Akemi said with a serious expression.

Obviously.

Although she was just an ordinary peripheral member, she knew quite a lot about the codenamed members, not to mention Vermouth, who seemed to have a grudge against her.

"Lin Mojun, please be very careful."

"This Vermouth is very difficult to deal with; don't let her trick you."

Akemi Miyano quickly spoke up.

She even told Lin Mo almost everything she had heard, acting as if she truly regarded Lin Mo as her husband.

And, in response to this.

Lin Mo nodded, feeling Miyano Akemi's concern, which improved his mood considerably.

He picked Akemi up in one swift motion and gave her a big kiss!

I have to admit...

It feels really good to be remembered and cared for!

Don't worry.

"I don't even consider Vermouth a threat."

"Have a meal!"

Lin Mo, whose mood had improved considerably, started having dinner with Miyano Akemi.

As for replying to Vermouth?

Hehe!

They've long forgotten about it.

……

The next day, afternoon.

Lin Mo left the house with a lazy expression and arrived at the agreed-upon Yokohama Port.

Yokohama Port was very comfortable at this time. Lin Mo used his transformation magic again, turning himself into a middle-aged fat man with a flabby figure and round-framed glasses. He was wearing an inexpensive suit and holding a worn-out briefcase in his arms.

As for the person as a whole, how should I put it?

In short, he's a颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it conveys a sense of listlessness, apathy, and a lack of motivation) middle-aged man who has to travel far away to support his family!

After waiting for a long time, Lin Mo sneezed.

That damn Vermouth! We agreed to meet at 8:30 in the morning, and it's almost 9:30 now, why hasn't she shown up yet!

Did you oversleep?

Thinking about this, Lin Mo couldn't help but feel annoyed!

Time slowly passed.

Just as Lin Mo was about to take out his phone to complain to Gin, Vermouth, dressed in a sexy leather outfit, walked up with a conflicted and puzzled look on her face: "You're Amaretto?"

Her face was filled with disbelief!

After all, although the members of the organization have different personalities and abilities, almost all of them are agile.

But this fat guy in front of me...

Forehead!

Anyway, Vermouth couldn't see any fighting ability in this fat guy!

Just now, she even thought that this guy could also use disguise techniques?

and so.

She observed in the shadows for a long time before confirming that it was definitely not a disguise; this was none other than Amareto himself.

Vermouth is now completely dumbfounded!

She really couldn't understand why the organization recruited this fat guy.

Forget about codenames or members, this guy isn't even qualified to be cannon fodder on the periphery, is he?

"Ah, that's me!" Lin Mo said, his face full of displeasure. "You must be Vermouth?"

Vermouth nodded, but before she could speak, she was interrupted.

"Hey, Vermouth!"

"Don't you have any sense of time? I've been waiting for you for almost an hour!"

"Report it! It must be reported!"

"Even if the case goes all the way to the organization's boss, I will make sure the organization criticizes and educates you."

"How old are you? Still being late?"

"Have you lived up to the organization's expectations of you? Have you lived up to your parents' hopes for you?"

"Punishment! They must be punished!"

Lin Mo was furious and increasingly annoyed with Vermouth.

Damn it!

I could have handled this task by myself, but that old woman Vermouth had to join in halfway through.

That's not all!

And the worst part is you were late?

Is there no law?
