Professor Agasa struggled to hold the struggling Ai Haibara, crying, "No, she can't go there! She can't go there!"

Ai Haibara struggled frantically, her whole being in a state as if she had lost her soul.

She felt as if she were seeing her sister die in front of her again; the pain and helplessness were almost driving her mad.

The doctor covered her mouth and pressed his body tightly against the wall to prevent the commotion from spreading.

It's a fact that Gin has his eye on Ran. They have no ability or way to save Ran from Gin at this time. Appearing at this moment would only add two more corpses.

Moreover, Gin's capture of Ran was likely intended to lure Shinichi; she is not currently in any life-threatening danger.

Aozawa certainly noticed Ai Haibara; this was intentionally made so that they would see her.

Click——

The peach soda rolled to the ground, and the handbag in her hand fell to the ground, its contents scattered everywhere.

The unconscious girl was picked up horizontally and thrown into a car next to her.

The sound of a car starting up could be heard. Dr. Agasa quickly glanced at the vehicle and memorized the license plate number.

With her grip loosening, Ai Haibara struggled to get down and ran pale-faced to the spot where Ran Mouri had just appeared.

The black car had disappeared around the corner, leaving behind only spilled soda and scattered toiletries.

Gin!

Her jaw was clenched, and her face looked terrifying.

Upon receiving the message from Professor Agasa, Shinichi Kudo's mind went completely blank.

Xiaolan...did something happen to her?

how come!

His hands and feet began to tremble uncontrollably, and his usually sharp mind seemed to suddenly freeze.

"What's wrong, Kudo?"

Sera Masumi, who was also examining the crime scene, looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"Sera, I'm leaving this place to you. I have to go now!"

With the phone still in his hand, he quickly ran out of the room amidst the puzzled gazes of the surrounding police officers.

Xiaolan is in trouble, but it's not the worst yet.

She's still alive; she was just taken hostage!

Gin's target is him; he won't touch Ran until he appears!

He felt himself detached, simultaneously panicking, fearing, and worrying, while also calmly analyzing Gin's intentions and how to respond.

My brain seemed to split open, and all that remained on my face was calm.

Don't rush, don't panic, Xiaolan can still be saved... Don't rush...

He kept reassuring himself, but his movements became faster and faster.

"Shinichi, don't worry, I'm already chasing that car!" Professor Agasa's voice came from the other end of the phone.

Wearing glasses, Haibara checked the surrounding map while keeping her eyes fixed on the dark vehicle ahead.

"Don't chase him! He's after me! He'll definitely contact me!"

Without a tracker, the chances of being discovered while following Professor Agasa are just too high!

He couldn't let Professor Agasa and Ai Haibara get into trouble because of him.

"How could we not chase after them!"

Ai Haibara's roar came from the other end of the phone!

"If you can't save her, then I will!"

"Calm down! Your appearance will only make things worse. It's not the most dangerous time yet. His target is me. He won't touch Xiaolan until he lures me out."

Shinichi Kudo's voice was calm, as if he had everything under control.

This calm and composed tone made the person on the other end also calm down.

He couldn't help but stay calm. If even he lost his composure at a time like this, then Xiaolan would truly be beyond saving.

After persuading them to stop, Shinichi Kudo took a deep breath and called Subaru Okiya.

"Mr. Okiya, Gin has kidnapped Ran!"

"what!"

Subaru Okiya suddenly opened his narrowed eyes, his emerald green pupils flashing with chilling killing intent.

"I am coming over now!"

The car was moving very fast. Ran Mouri sat up from the back seat and rubbed the back of her neck.

Although I wasn't actually knocked unconscious, it still hurt.

She looked out the window; the scenery outside was changing rapidly, and as they drove, the number of residential houses around them decreased.

She looked at Qingze driving through the rearview mirror, and from this angle, he really looked like Gin.

The hairstyle, clothing, figure, and temperament were all perfectly replicated, with only a slight difference in the face.

But in the dim light of the night, this small difference made no difference at all, and no one could observe it as closely as she could.

Moreover, he also has that voice-changing bow tie.

"Does Mr. Aozawa often dress up as Gin?"

Judging from the complete outfit, it was clearly not a spur-of-the-moment decision.

"Occasionally."

Aozawa's voice had completely transformed into Gin's, and at first listen, even Ran Mouri felt a sense of unfamiliarity.

"There's a bulletproof vest next to you, put it on."

Ran Mouri looked down and then noticed the bulletproof vest.

"Mr. Qingze, are you wearing it?"

"Of course I wore it."

Qingze had long anticipated that something would go wrong on their school trip, so he had prepared all the wigs and clothes in his car except for the ones he bought on the spot.

Even the car's windows are bulletproof.

Ran Mouri took off her coat and put on the bulletproof vest underneath. The specially made bulletproof vest was not thick and could not be seen at all when she wore the coat.

"Bulletproof vests can only protect part of the body and prevent bullets from entering, but the impact of the bullet's inertia can still cause injury. Be careful and don't think that having a bulletproof vest means you're all set."

"Well, I'll be careful."

......

Vermouth was sitting in Vodka's car at that moment.

Since Gin didn't come, vodka became Gin's eyes.

To get Shinichi Kudo out of danger, Vodka must witness Shinichi Kudo tearing off his face.

At the same time, vodka must not be allowed to make a move.

As the car drove along the mountain road, Vodka glanced at the person next to him.

"What are you doing here?"

Vodka had no desire to deal with this man who was more cunning than a sieve.

If you say something without thinking, she might guess something.

"I'm very curious about Koniak's love life."

Since Vodka mistakenly believed that Ran Mouri was dating Koniak, he must have seen something.

What he saw was very important to her.

"I don't know anything about what kind of relationship it is."

Looking at Vodka, who was pretending to be clueless, Vermouth exhaled a puff of cigarette smoke with a mocking tone, "Stop pretending, he's already told me everything."

Vodka didn't believe that Koniak could be honest with Vermouth.

"He even disguised himself as your older brother to kill his love rival, what else are you going to help him hide?"

"You really know?"

Vodka's gossipy nature was starting to stir.

Sharing it with just his older brother isn't enough!

Since Vermouth already knows, there's no harm in her telling him, right?

"Tell me, how did he lure my student?!" Vermouth, holding a cigarette in her hand, smiled in a particularly terrifying way.

"I don't know how we got together. It was just that day I was following my older brother's orders to go to the Mouri Detective Agency to arrest Kogoro Mouri, but only Ran Mouri was there, so I changed my target..."

Vodka repeated almost everything he had told Gin, but as for being knocked down in two moves, he would never mention it to save face for Vodka!

"You're saying Koniak is taking care of Xiaolan?!"

Vermouth felt like she was hearing something in her sleep.

Koniak took care of Lan?

Is he good at taking care of people?

Chapter 121 Do you regret it?

"Yeah, Ran seemed to be feeling unwell that day, it was just the two of them. They were hugging and kissing right in front of me, and Ran even kissed him. Koniak's face turned bright red instantly!"

Vodka grew increasingly excited as he spoke, "It really did turn red with just a touch, like he'd never been kissed by a woman before. Tsk tsk tsk, it's unbelievable, he's a virgin, never even been with a woman..."

Vermouth looked confused.

Was Vodka really talking about Koniak?

With Koniak's thick skin, would he blush?

It's not like she hasn't flirted with him before; he didn't even blush, let alone react at all.

Is the Koniak that Vodka mentioned a fake?

Vermouth sensed something was wrong, something very wrong.

“Retell their conversation to me.”

Vodka's eyes darted around; how can this be recounted?

"I barged in with my gun, intending to fight, but then I saw Koniak. When Ran saw me with a gun, she tried to call the police, but Koniak stopped her..."

"Ran Mouri asked him if he knew me and if he was also a member of the Yakuza. Koniak apologized to her and admitted it."

Vodka mimicked Koniak's tone and repeated his exact words.

"I'm sorry, I lied to you. I really am a member of a criminal organization. I was afraid you would hate me..."

As he spoke, Vodka couldn't help but complain.

"You didn't see it! He actually apologized to Ran Mouri in a very humble manner, acting like he was afraid she'd dislike him. Tsk tsk, has Koniak ever apologized to anyone before? This scene is like a dream..."

Vermouth's expression was somewhat complex and weary.

"and then?"

"Then here comes the important part: Ran Mouri took the initiative to kiss him, saying that she felt he wasn't a good person the first time she saw him, that he was gloomy and had already guessed he was a member of the yakuza organization... Then Koniak's face turned bright red, like an apple, almost steaming!"

Vermouth took a long, weary drag of her cigarette, feeling utterly bewildered.

Why is it that she recognizes each word individually, but can't understand it when they're put together?

Is Vodka sure he's not making up lies?

She turned her head to look at Vodka, whose face was full of excitement at sharing gossip, and it didn't seem fake at all.
