Solving cases with Detective Conan's science? No, I'm a cultivator!

Vermouth narrowed her eyes slightly: "You've been following me?"

No wonder Bourbon was able to find his way here.

Is it because she's been living too comfortably lately and her vigilance has decreased? She didn't even realize she was being followed!

"I'm just curious what you're doing. You've been investigating the whereabouts of the Miyano sisters for so long, and you haven't made a single clue."

He returned to Japan for two main reasons: one, as he just mentioned, and two, for Shuichi Akai.

Little did they know that following Vermouth would not only go undetected, but would also yield unexpected gains.

The two people Vermouth sees most often are Yukiko Fujimine and Taki Kitagawa.

He automatically ignored Fujimine Yukiko, and what remained was the rather famous exorcist detective Kitagawa Taki.

Kitagawa Taki had been an ordinary person for the first twenty years of his life, but suddenly he broke out and got involved with Vermouth, which made Kitagawa very curious.

He had always been very concerned about cooperating with Vermouth because of her special identity and her expertise in disguise, which could provide him with a lot of help.

Therefore, he remained puzzled after Vermouth unilaterally announced the end of the cooperation.

Considering all of the above, he came to this small coffee shop in Beika Town.

To avoid being too obvious, he took a roundabout route, first becoming Kogoro Mouri's apprentice, and then using that to get closer to Taki Kitagawa.

Vermouth coming to him today was something he hadn't expected.

This is tantamount to directly declaring to him that Kitagawa Taki knows about the Black Organization, and even his identity as a member of the organization.

Vermouth avoided discussing the Miyano sisters, instead saying, "I thought you were here to see Shuichi Akai!"

Amuro Tooru's gaze turned cold.

Shuichi Akai, he will definitely get rid of him himself.

"Alright, I should go now."

With that, Vermouth got up and left, stopping at the shop entrance to talk to the man carrying a bag of groceries.

"Mr. Amuro, was that beautiful lady a guest?"

槺捐髯芨芯踉谀睦锛桥说难印�

“Yes.” Amuro Tooru immediately switched to a different expression and said, “I explained to her properly that we weren’t open for business yet, and she left.”

"That's strange," said the woman, "doesn't our shop have a sign saying it's not open yet?"

"Maybe I just didn't notice."

Amuro Tooru remained expressionless, but his peripheral vision lingered on Vermouth, who was still waiting outside the store.

Outside the door, Vermouth was on the phone with Kitagawa Taki, asking, "Where are you right now?"

"Where's the office?" Kitagawa Taki asked. "What happened?"

"Then wait for me a moment."

After saying that, Vermouth hung up the phone and walked straight to the Kitagawa Exorcism Office.

Amuro Tooru's face twitched at the sight. Was he not going to continue acting?

"Mr. Amuro, something's wrong! Why are you staring at that beautiful woman? Could it be that you're interested in her?"

Amuro Tooru chuckled and scratched the back of his head. He wasn't interested in women; no matter how beautiful they were, it was all for naught.

"Eh? She went to Mr. Kitagawa's place." (The rest of the text appears to be gibberish and unrelated.)

……

The office is on the second floor.

Vermouth pushed open the door and entered; Kitagawa Taki was opening a letter.

Kitagawa Taki asked in surprise, "So fast? You weren't downstairs just now, were you?"

Vermouth took off her sunglasses. "I was just at the Polo Cafe across the street."

Kitagawa Taki raised an eyebrow. "The investigation you're talking about is just going to his door?"

Vermouth laughed, "What? Are you scared?"

"What am I afraid of? So, have you found out?"

Kitagawa Taki emphasized the word "investigation".

Vermouth replied, "The investigation revealed that he came specifically for you, but he doesn't seem to be aware of the Miyano sisters' existence yet."

She paused for a moment, then continued, "You don't need to worry about him too much; he's not that loyal to the organization."

"He's not just disloyal, he's a complete traitor," Kitagawa Taki dropped a bombshell.

"Oh? He's an undercover agent too?"

Kitagawa Taki said mysteriously, "My intuition tells me he's a policeman."

"intuition?"

Vermouth glanced at Kitagawa Taki in surprise, thinking that Kitagawa Taki had some crucial information.

"Then I'll trust your intuition. If that's the case, things will get interesting!"

Vermouth smiled knowingly.

Amuro Tooru is of mixed race, and it would be even more interesting if he were a member of the Japanese Public Security Bureau.

Japanese Public Security Bureau versus US FBI? Interesting!

Chapter 348 Ah, men!

"By the way," Vermouth asked, "Where's Rena Mizunashi?"

Kitagawa Taki shook his head. "She hasn't contacted me since last time."

“Heh,” Vermouth chuckled, “She’s quite composed.”

“It’s okay, if she doesn’t take the initiative, I will.” Kitagawa Taki continued to look through the letters.

When there are cases to be handled, just call on Rena Mizunashi.

Vermouth stood up: "Alright, I'll watch your performance. I'm leaving now."

Kitagawa Taki looked up and asked, "So rushed?"

"Oh dear," Vermouth teased, "You don't want me to leave?"

"let's go."

Kitagawa Taki waved his hand, since he had other things to do later anyway.

"Ha, men!"

……

ten o'clock.

Kitagawa Taki drove up to Yoko Okino's apartment building.

He received an invitation from Yoko Okino to attend a friend's engagement party.

"Yoko, these glasses suit you really well!"

Yoko Okino wore a pair of black-rimmed glasses today, which added to her intellectual beauty.

"Really!" Yoko Okino smiled sweetly. "I usually wear contact lenses."

Kitagawa Taki laughed and said, "Good-looking people are good-looking no matter what."

Yoko Okino twisted her fingers, her heart bursting with joy.

Kitagawa Taki glanced at the idol who was so excited she forgot to mention her destination, and asked, "Yoko, where does your friend live?"

"Oh, I forgot." Yoko Okino playfully stuck out her tongue. "Starry Sky Apartments."

Kitagawa Taki nodded and started the car. "By the way, it's okay if your friend takes me there, right?"

"Taki, don't be angry when I tell you," Yoko Okino said weakly. "Actually, they insisted that I go with you."

"Oh?"

Yoko Okino continued, "They all suspect I have a boyfriend, and they insist that I bring him with me, otherwise they won't let me in..."

Kitagawa Taki pretended to be angry and said, "Fine, Yoko, you're using me as a shield."

"me……"

Yoko Okino was a little anxious, but she didn't say anything.

Seeing that tears were about to fall, Kitagawa Taki quickly said, "Yoko, I was just kidding. I don't know how many people want to be your boyfriend."

"Then, what about you?" Yoko Okino asked, mustering her courage.

Kitagawa Taki glanced at him slightly: "As long as you don't mind."

"Really?" Yoko Okino looked up and wiped away her tears.

Kitagawa Taki nodded.

Yoko Okino lowered her head again, her face flushed, and said, "I'm fine."

She knew very well that Kitagawa Taki had women, and perhaps more than one.

After seeing Fujimine Yukiko behaving intimately with Kitagawa Taki last time, she gave up hope of becoming Kitagawa Taki's official girlfriend.

For her, who almost missed out on Kitagawa Taki, she was very satisfied with the result she had achieved.

What are you thinking about?

Kitagawa Taki's voice interrupted Okino Yoko's thoughts.

Yoko Okino smiled and shook her head: "It's nothing."

Kitagawa Taki joked, "Hurry up and wipe your tears, or your friends will think I'm bullying you."
