Detective Conan: A Dream Come True, Ran is Startled

And this time, he drooled more than last time.

This made Vermouth feel utterly ashamed and indignant, as if she had no face to lose.

She felt it was all Lin Jin's fault!

Not only did he humiliate himself in his dream the first time, but he also humiliated himself a second time in his dream.

That's absolutely outrageous!

If it weren't for her, would I be in this situation?

"Damn it... I don't even have enough clean clothes to change into." Vermouth muttered as she changed into dry clothes.

She had to go to the bathroom to wash her underwear and pajama bottoms.

After finishing her work, Vermouth lay back down on the bed, feeling somewhat dreadful about life.

Why would I have such a dream?

She's not familiar with Lin Jin either.

why?

Could it be that this guy has something special about him?

Vermouth was completely baffled.

Just then, sleepiness swept over me again.

This time, Vermouth was a little scared, afraid that she would have the same dream again!

She quickly got up and walked around a bit to fight off the sleepiness.

This method was very effective; after taking a few steps, Vermouth's sleepiness gradually dissipated.

However, she quickly realized a problem... she couldn't just stop sleeping, could she?

Especially since there's an operation tomorrow night, if I don't get enough rest and it affects my performance, then I'll be in trouble.

After thinking about this, Vermouth hesitated for a moment, but ultimately went back to sleep.

They can't possibly come back, can they?

This is the second time I've come...

With these thoughts in mind, Vermouth felt a wave of drowsiness wash over her and soon fell asleep.

Once inside the dream, Vermouth felt as if she was being slapped repeatedly.

When she opened her eyes, she only saw Lin Jin slapping himself while saying, "Hey, wake up! Wake up!!!"

"Huh? Huh!!!" After regaining her senses, Vermouth reflexively crawled back, keeping her distance from Lin Jin.

She exclaimed in shock and anger, "You...you bastard! How could you do this to me? I will never forgive you!"

"What are you talking about?" Lin Jin frowned, looking at Vermouth with a puzzled expression. "Are you acting crazy again?"

"What? I'm crazy? I...I...Huh? Why are my clothes still on?" Before Vermouth could even react, she found that her clothes were perfectly intact and had not been torn at all.

But... how come she remembers her clothes being torn to shreds and her being stripped naked?

"You... never mind, there's no point in saying anything now." Lin Jin wanted to say something, but in the end he just sighed.

This puzzled Vermouth, but after calming down and looking around, she realized that they had been imprisoned.

She remembered that when she and Lin Jin rushed into the study, they were caught in a trap and knocked unconscious by the white mist that was sprayed out.

It seems that there were aphrodisiac ingredients in that white mist, and then that guy used it on me.

And the way it was used was extremely rude... However, judging from the current situation, this part probably didn't happen; it was just a dream.

After Vermouth gradually sorted out her thoughts, the door suddenly clicked open.

Then, the elderly Pisco walked in with a kind smile and said, "I was wondering which rat had sneaked in... Oh, it's you, Vermouth!"

"Hello, Pisco," Vermouth greeted him with a forced smile.

“Heh…” Pisco chuckled softly and said, “Enough with the nonsense… Did the boss send you to kill me this time?”

“Of course not.” Vermouth denied it without hesitation, and said, “After all these years, I wanted to give you a surprise, didn’t I? I didn’t expect the mechanisms in your study to be so ingenious!”

Pisco shook his head and said, "Belmod, for the sake of our friendship, I advise you to tell the truth! Otherwise, my methods... won't be so pleasant."

Vermouth laughed too: "Pisco, you know me... those methods won't work on me!"

“It’s because I know you so well that I have a way to deal with you!” Pisco said, walking up to Lin Jin and saying with interest, “I was wondering why that girl Mingmei suddenly got a code name. Turns out it was you who helped her.”

“Detective Lin, don’t worry. I know Mingmei’s parents and we have a good relationship… Strictly speaking, we’re actually on the same side.”

"Really...really?" Lin Jin asked, half-believing.

“I watched Mingmei grow up, why would I lie to you?” Pisco smiled and said, “Besides, given things like this now, why would I need to lie to you?”

"…………That makes sense." Lin Jin nodded, agreeing with the statement.

“Since we’re on the same side, I’d like to trouble you to do me a favor.” Pisco smiled kindly and immediately used a key to unlock Lin Jin’s shackles.

“Okay, consider it a pledge of loyalty.” Lin Jin twirled his wrist and looked at Vermouth, saying, “Should we kill her?”

“No, her head is full of things I want.” Pisco turned to Vermouth, a playful expression on his face, and said, “Use your manly talents! Torture her mercilessly!!”

Upon hearing this, both Lin Jin and Vermouth's expressions changed!

Lin Jin hesitated for a moment and said, "Isn't this a bit inappropriate? What if Mingmei finds out..."

“Hey, those who achieve great things don’t concern themselves with trifles!” Pisco patted Lin Jin on the shoulder and said, “You’re not doing this because you like her, you’re doing it to achieve your goal!”

"Well... alright then." Lin Jin nodded.

“Come find me after you’ve sorted things out.” Piscoe said, then turned to Vermouth and smiled, “Have fun, Sharon.”

"Kenzo Masuyama!! You bastard!!" Vermouth was both shocked and furious. How could something like this happen again?

Wait, why did I say "again"?

Click!

The door closed, and Piske left.

Lin Jin approached Vermouth, shook his head, and said, "Vermouth, I advise you to tell the truth. It's better for everyone!"

"Dream on! You won't get a single word out of my mouth!" Vermouth said fiercely to Lin Jin. "If you dare touch a hair on my head, I'll skin you alive!!"

“But if I hadn’t touched you, I probably wouldn’t even have a chance to survive.” Lin Jin shook his head and said, “Don’t blame me, I’m just a small fry, I had no choice!”

"If you have to blame someone, blame Pisco; it was all his idea!"

After saying that, he swaggered up, took out the mind-injection stick, and gave Vermouth a good lesson.

………………

After class, Vermouth woke up from her dream.

This time, she didn't make a huge scene like she did last time.

She was very calm, so calm it was almost frightening.

Looking closely, Vermouth's eyes were filled with confusion as she murmured, "Three times... I've dreamt about it three times in a row!"

"God, what did I do wrong?"

"Why did you let the same person humiliate me three times in my dreams?"

Chapter 117 Vermouth: This familiar scene... (3rd update)

Ding-dong ding-dong——————

Click!

"I'm here... Hmm?" Lin Jin's brow twitched, and he asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so upset?"

"I'm fine!" Vermouth stared at Lin Jin with an unfriendly tone and said coldly, "I'm just on my period!"

She knew that what happened in her dream last night had nothing to do with the other person.

But the thought of being humiliated by this guy three times in her dreams, and seeing that face, made the fire in her heart flare up uncontrollably!

"You're on your period? What a coincidence!" Lin Jin couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, but outwardly he still asked with concern, "In that case, you can rest at the hotel for this mission. I'll go alone."

"What if we fail?" Vermouth was slightly surprised, not expecting the other party to let her rest.

In all her years in this line of work, this was the first time she had ever heard someone care about others.

A conscience not yet dead!

This is murder, not child's play; it's risking your life!

It seems... a dream is just a dream, and we can't confuse it with reality.

Vermouth's attitude softened slightly, and she said calmly, "Don't worry, it won't affect my actions. Come in."

Upon entering the hotel lobby, Lin Jin saw Vermouth packing her things.

“Sit down, I’ll disguise you.” Vermouth took out her makeup bag and said, “That way, even if you’re discovered, your identity won’t be exposed!”

"Of course, if he gets killed, there's nothing I can do about it."

Upon seeing this, Lin Jin immediately realized that his antics with Vermouth the previous night had been effective.

In order to eliminate hostility, she even disguised herself.

He sat down and said, "Disguise? Are you sure this thing works?"

“Of course it works!” Vermouth, biting a makeup brush, began applying some base liquid to Lin Jin’s face, saying, “You haven’t been in the organization for long, so it’s normal that you haven’t heard of me.”

"Go back and ask Sherry for details, and you'll find out that I'm known as the Thousand-Faced Witch."

"Otherwise, why do you think I'm good at gathering intelligence?"

"I see." Lin Jin naturally already knew this.

However, to his surprise, he ended up sitting there for more than an hour.

He was almost dozing off when Vermouth finally said with satisfaction, "Alright! Disguise complete! Take a look."

She took out a mirror.

Lin Jin's spirits lifted, and he opened his eyes to take a look.

The person in the mirror had long since become ordinary, with a plain appearance, just like any other passerby.

"This disguise technique is truly amazing!" Lin Jin praised.

“Of course!” Vermouth said proudly, “I only did a little bit this time! If I had more time, I could have fitted it even better!”

"Once it's stuck to your face, you can't peel it off even if you want to!"

"Unless it's applied with a special medicine!"

In response, Lin Jin clapped and said, "Very impressive, but don't do it again next time! It's too much of a waste of time."

"For safety's sake, what's an hour or so?" Vermouth shook her head, feeling that Lin Jin didn't understand the benefits of protecting his identity!

"This is no different from me wearing a mask." Lin Jin shook his head, feeling that with his abilities, there was probably no use for disguise.

He didn't think anyone in the Conan world had the ability to remove their own mask.

Vermouth shrugged and said, "Fine, but don't blame me if I don't help you with your disguise next time!"

"Don't worry, I'm not that petty." Lin Jin glanced at the time and said, "It's almost twelve o'clock, time to go."

"Okay, let's go." Vermouth didn't say anything more. After packing her things, she set off with Lin Jin.

Since the intention is to do bad things, then of course none of the original items can be used.

He wore new clothes, and even his car was stolen.

About 800 meters from the Masuyama Villa, Vermouth stopped the car, picked up a small bag, and began to approach the villa with practiced ease.

Upon reaching a wall, Vermouth began to grope around on it. Soon, she found a protrusion and pulled it slightly.

A circular wall section was then removed.

Seeing this, Lin Jin, intending to scare Vermouth, stepped forward and gestured with his hand, exclaiming in astonishment, "It's only the size of a water bottle, how could it fit?"

“Of course you can…” After Vermouth finished speaking, she suddenly felt that this scene was so familiar.
