Detective Conan: A Dream Come True, Ran is Startled

However, Vermouth doesn't need to worry about this, because she doesn't age.

"So...so beautiful." Even Ran, who is also a woman, was amazed by Vermouth's charm.

"Yeah...so beautiful!!" Sonoko's eyes widened as she murmured incredulously, "She's just like a movie star who stepped right out of a movie!"

"Is it possible that she is a movie star?" Lin Jin replied with amusement.

"Oh? You know me?" Vermouth was slightly surprised. She had intended to give Tita a surprise, but instead, she was the one who received the surprise.

"Hmm." Lin Jin nodded, took a sip of coffee slowly, and said, "I often surf the internet and follow entertainment news in my spare time."

"Your name is Chris Vineyard, and you've become famous in the European and American entertainment industry thanks to your superb acting skills and your identity as 'Sharon's daughter'."

"Huh?" Xiaolan was immediately surprised when she heard the name "Sharon": "You...you're Miss Sharon's daughter? If that's the case...you two look so alike!"

"Is it that big star Sharon?" Sonoko was surprised and also very astonished: "Am I dreaming?"

"Heh." Vermouth smiled slightly, sat down in the empty seat next to Lin Jin, and said, "What? You know my mother?"

"Yes, when I went to New York last time, I was with Aunt Yukiko and had the pleasure of meeting Miss Sharon," Ran said excitedly.

“I see…” Vermouth said knowingly, “Then I have bad news for you… She passed away not long ago.”

"Huh?" Ran and Sonoko were shocked by the news and asked repeatedly what was going on.

Lin Jin silently sipped his coffee, pondering Vermouth's thoughts and intentions.

It didn't take him long to figure out why the other party did that.

If it were someone who wasn't a time traveler, they wouldn't be able to figure it out even if they racked their brains.

But as a transmigrator, Lin Jin figured it out almost without thinking.

She did this simply to get Xiaolan's attention and let her know that she was a scumbag, and the worst of the worst!

This would keep Xiaolan away from him and prevent her from being deceived.

Being a member of an organization can easily lead those around you into danger; staying away from yourself is also staying away from danger.

"By the way! Miss Chris, when did you meet Brother Lin?" Xiao Lan asked curiously.

In response, Vermouth tossed her golden hair, gave Lin Jin a flirtatious look, and chuckled, "We met for the first time at a bar a while ago."

“I was being harassed at the time, and he stepped forward to help me.”

In return, I bought him a drink.

“I remember it very clearly, he ordered a dita.”

Upon hearing this, Vermouth explicitly identified Lin Jin and instructed him to cooperate properly and avoid any unsavory tactics.

"Oh, I see." Xiaolan and the other girl nodded in realization.

Before they could say anything more, Vermouth exclaimed, "His performance in bed is just as impressive as his martial arts skills!"

"Huh??!!!!" The volume of Ran and Sonoko's voices changed dramatically, rising several decibels and filled with disbelief and astonishment!

Seeing the surprised looks the two were giving him, Lin Jin replied, "Don't misunderstand... She said her back and waist were sore, so I gave her a full-body massage."

After saying that, he patted Vermouth on the shoulder and gave it a squeeze, then smiled and said, "How are you, Miss Chris? Your back and legs aren't aching anymore, are they?"

"..." Vermouth felt an intense pain in her shoulder, which made her smile stiffen.

She knew this was Lin Jin's warning, telling her to stop talking nonsense...

"Haha~~~ Yes. I'm much better now. My back is sore, my legs don't hurt anymore, and I can even climb thirteen floors in one go..." Vermouth nodded with a smile, no longer daring to do anything reckless.

She realized that her assessment was wrong.

Although this guy is extremely promiscuous in his personal life and has many casual relationships, he doesn't treat beautiful women any differently because of that!

Upon hearing this, Lin Jin withdrew his hand in satisfaction.

He admitted that Vermouth was beautiful, but there were too many beautiful women in the world.

Especially in the world of Detective Conan, beautiful women are practically everywhere; they're no longer a scarce resource, you can find them among ordinary people.

He prefers Asian beauties to Caucasian beauties.

Not to mention that during this period, he frequently conducted resistance tests, which greatly increased his resistance to beauty!

It's impossible for Vermouth to easily break through her resistance.

"Oh, I see. Miss Chris is quite the joker." Xiao Lan breathed a sigh of relief.

“Yes, but foreigners seem to be more open-minded about this.” Sonoko said, her anxiety subsiding.

"Sorry, sorry, I forgot that our cultural customs are different. I'll try to make fewer of these kinds of jokes in the future." Vermouth gave a helpless, wry smile.

"It's alright, it's alright." Xiaolan waved her hand, feeling it was fine. She asked curiously, "But... Miss Chris, may I ask what you and Brother Lin (3.8) are going to do this weekend?"

Before Vermouth could speak, Lin Jin replied, "She's run into some trouble, so she asked me to help her out."

"Oh, I see." Xiaolan understood that this was work, so she didn't say anything more.

"I see it's getting late, how about I treat you to dinner?" Vermouth warmly and generously invited the two girls.

Lin Jin knew that she wanted to invite Xiao Lan, and Yuan Zi was just a side dish.

Ran and Sonoko immediately cheered with joy.

“Let’s go, Detective Lin.” Vermouth took out the key and handed it to Lin Jin, smiling. “I’m unfamiliar with this place, so I’ll trouble you to show me the way.”

"Okay." Lin Jin nodded and took the keys.

Chapter 112 This is Love (2 Updates)

Vermouth was quite generous, immediately taking them to a Michelin five-star restaurant for dinner.

This bowl of rice tastes very good.

The only downside is that the portion size was a bit small.

Fortunately, the three people in our group were all women, and they didn't eat much.

Lin Jin also took their portions without any hesitation and showed off.

He needs to eat more tonight to enter Vermouth's dream world and replenish his energy.

Meanwhile, Vermouth was happy that Rin wouldn't come and disturb her, and she continued talking with Ran and Sonoko.

Chatting with young girls is a completely different experience; it made Vermouth feel like she was young again, and she looked much younger.

Pleasant times fly by, and before we knew it, it was eight or nine o'clock in the evening.

"Ah...it's already so late? Miss Chris, I'm afraid I have to go home now." Xiaolan said with some reluctance after checking the time.

"Yes. I have to go to school tomorrow." Sonoko was also quite reluctant to leave.

“It’s alright, I’ll be staying in Tokyo for a long time.” Vermouth chuckled. “Let’s exchange phone numbers and meet up again when we’re free!”

Upon hearing this, Xiaolan and the other girls' faces lit up with joy, and they all began exchanging phone numbers.

After they finished talking, Lin Jin continued to act as an emotionless tool, driving the two female high school students home.

"Where to next, Vermouth?" Lin Jin asked, urging her to get down to business.

“Mihana Sakura Hotel.” Vermouth opened the window, letting the evening breeze ruffle her hair.

She exclaimed, "It's so easy to get along with high school girls! I don't have to think too much, and they don't have to play any tricks on me!"

"Detective Lin, you shouldn't mind if I become friends with them, right?"

"I don't mind, as long as you don't harm her." Lin Jin chuckled. How could he not understand Vermouth's thoughts?

It's obvious he's using himself as an excuse to get close to Xiaolan.

So that she wouldn't realize Xiaolan's place in her heart.

Tsk, it really is like a sow wearing bras—one after another.

“Then I’m relieved. I was worried you were overthinking things,” Vermouth said sentimentally. “Tokyo is such a big city; you need a few trustworthy friends.”

Lin Jin didn't respond because he felt Vermouth was being pretentious and didn't know what to say.

Vermouth didn't care whether Lin Jin answered or not, and continued to ask, "What is it about that woman, Akemi Miyano, that makes you willing to risk your life to save her?"

"Sacrifice your life? No, that's just your opinion..." Lin Jin muttered to himself before adding casually, "You don't understand, this is love."

Vermouth paused for a second, then scoffed, "Love my ass!"

This time, Lin Jin was shocked: "You can speak Sichuan dialect?"

“I’ve traveled all over the world, what language don’t I speak?” Vermouth tossed her hair smugly, a hint of amusement in her voice: “While I was on missions around the world, you were probably playing in the sand!”

Lin Jin did not refute this.

Vermouth looks like a girl in her mid-twenties, but in fact she's old enough to be someone's grandmother.

When Judy was 8 years old, Vermouth killed someone's parents. Vermouth looked just like this back then.

Now, twenty years have passed, and Judy is 28 years old, entering middle age, while Vermouth still looks the same.

The key question is whether Vermouth had already stopped aging when she killed Jodie's parents.

You should savor it, savor it carefully.

She might not be a grandmother, but a great-grandmother!

"But you're really something else, actually taking Miyano Akemi's place on this mission!" Vermouth exclaimed. "I don't know whether to say you're brave or that you're blinded by love."

"Why give up being a good detective and become a criminal!"

Lin Jin didn't say anything, but turned on his left turn signal... The Mihana Sakura Hotel is just two more intersections away.

"Not going to tell? I can guess even if you don't tell me." Vermouth chuckled. "The reason a man helps a woman is either because he desires her body, or... he simply desires her body. There is no other reason!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Jin turned to look at Vermouth and said with a strange expression, "I didn't expect you to be so talkative."

"..." Upon hearing this, Vermouth immediately stopped laughing.

Isn't she trying to gather more information?

She wouldn't bother talking so much nonsense if she didn't want to know more.

“That’s because you’ve piqued my curiosity,” Vermouth said in a slightly provocative tone.

"..." Lin Jin was not only not provoked after hearing this, but also felt that Vermouth was a bit frivolous.

He doesn't really like frivolous girls.

If she can seduce me like this today, she can seduce other people tomorrow!

God knows when he'll find himself wearing a few green hats.

There is no sense of security at all.

He still prefers traditional girls like Xiaolan.

"..." Vermouth was getting a little frustrated seeing that Lin Jin was still unresponsive.

Could it be that he doesn't like women? Is he gay?

The moment the idea popped into her mind, Vermouth 737 dismissed it.

How could this guy be gay when his relationships with women are so messed up?

Vermouth preferred to believe she was gay rather than believe the other person didn't like beautiful women.

Was it because I was too proactive?

After thinking it over, Vermouth felt that this was very likely the reason.

She simply stopped taking the initiative.

It's just fishing, isn't it?

let's play!

Who wouldn’t!

Vermouth stopped talking, took out a cigarette, and lit it for herself.

despair!

Vermouth had just taken a puff of her cigarette when Lin Jin snatched it away in the next second.
