Chapter 90: The winery has a bright future

The winery has always been happy to pay members with code names.

Think about it, the Porsche 356A that Gin has been driving is a model from the 40s. He can still drive it on the highway for a ride every day. You can imagine that the money he spends on maintenance is definitely not low - that is probably an astronomical figure for any working-class person.

This shows how generous the money given by the distillery is, and the "raise a level" in Gin's words is almost equivalent to adding another 0 at the end.

But speaking of cars...

"When I came here just now, the cars I saw downstairs looked unfamiliar. Where are the ones you used to drive?"

Lin Jiashu asked casually.

Gin didn't reply, and Vodka looked at him carefully before saying, "...Brother's car is gone."

"?"

"When there was a gunfight on the highway, we left by helicopter and the car was towed away by the police."

"Is that so?"

No wonder we haven’t seen Gin driving around in his 356A recently.

But what should be said is also outrageous...

Gin and his friends did a lot of dirty work while driving that 356A, but Beika Town still allowed the car to drive around the streets without even issuing a wanted notice.

Perhaps this made Gin in a bad mood. He stood up and went outside to make a call with his cell phone.

"I told him it was time for him to give up his old car. Sometimes when I'm on a mission, I'll be miles away with just one foot on the accelerator, and his car will still be chugging along behind me."

"That's because you're too impatient Chianti."

"What did you say!?"

In response to his partner's complaints, Chianti's voice suddenly became much higher.

Lin Jiashu watched the scene with a smile.

At this moment, Tequila suddenly clinked his glass with the glass of orange blossom wine in front of Lin Jiashu, and said in a deep voice with a Kansai accent: "Brother, don't forget what I just said. Don't be polite to me if you have any problems in the future!"

He suddenly became a brother.

Watching Tequila finish his glass of wine and then walk over to sit next to Vodka, as if he wanted to talk to him about something, Lin Jiashu also picked up his glass of orange blossom and took a sip.

Very rich orange flavor, but the bittersweetness of the alcohol is still there...

While Lin Jiashu was drinking alone, a slender arm suddenly wrapped around his neck.

It's Chianti.

The crazy woman hooked Lin Jiashu's neck with one hand from behind, and with a little force, she pressed Lin Jiashu's face against her chest.

"Hey, Cointreau, don't be like Gin! Why are you always holding it so high?" Chianti teased jokingly, then grinned again and asked, "Do you have any plans tonight?"

"Is there a problem?"

"How about going out with me tonight? I won't let you suffer any loss!"

".....Tonight? Let me think about it."

Lin Jiashu did not refuse directly, he just smiled and thought about it.

Chianti must have drunk a lot of wine...

He looked at the bartender and asked for a neat Cointreau and a half-full Chianti.

“Oh~!”

Chianti raised his brows in pleasure upon seeing this.

She found that she really liked Cointreau today - not only because of his face, but mainly because this guy seemed unexpectedly reliable as a teammate and directly saved Tequila's life.

Think about how much Chianti hated Vermouth in the original novel for taking advantage of Calvados and not saving him. It's obvious that she has her own standards in her heart.

However, after the bartender brought the two glasses of wine together, Lin Jiashu handed both of them to her.

His delicate face was covered with a bright and somewhat sweet smile: "If you can drink these two cups, I will go out with you."

"What's this?"

Chianti was not afraid at all. She let go of her hand that was hooked around Lin Jiashu's neck, picked up the two glasses of wine and drank them.

As a result, after finishing the first glass of Chianti red wine, when he held the glass of Cointreau neat and poured it into his mouth... maybe he drank too quickly, he suddenly choked halfway through the Chianti. His face, which seemed pale due to lack of sun exposure, suddenly turned blue. He hurriedly put down the glass and ran to the bathroom.

“I failed…

Vodka saw it clearly.

Chianti's alcohol tolerance is actually quite good, but she did drink too much today.

Tequila also seemed to have eaten a melon and couldn't help but cough.

Then Lin Jiashu saw Tequila nudging Vodka with his elbow. When Vodka turned around and looked at him, Tequila signaled to him with his eyes where Lin Jiashu was.

Vodka shook his head, and Tequila frowned.

These two people seem to be playing some kind of riddle...

Although he didn't understand, he knew it was probably not a big deal. Lin Jiashu didn't care at first, but after Tequila had a conversation with Vodka, he suddenly came over and sat next to Lin Jiashu.

"brother."

The big man from Guanxi lowered his voice a bit, "That Chianti woman is not to be trifled with."

"Well...she has a pretty impatient personality, but I don't hate people like that." Lin Jiashu responded with a smile.

"No, she's really crazy." Tequila said anxiously, "Let's get this straight. Vodka and I are going out tonight. Do you want to come?"

"..."

Tequila's words made Lin Jiashu silent for a moment.

Go out and have fun?

It sounds a little familiar.

Lin Jiashu looked at Vodka, only to see that Vodka seemed a little embarrassed. He sat there, adjusted his sunglasses, and coughed lightly - because he had been rejected when he invited Lin Jiashu before, Vodka knew very well that Lin Jiashu was not his "companion" in this regard.

"A brothel?"

"You understand a lot." Tequila raised an eyebrow.

"...Mr. Vodka invited me before, but I'm not very interested." Lin Jiashu said this and smiled again, "Aren't you going to invite Cohen or Gin?"

"Big brother doesn't go to places like that."

Vodka spoke up.

Cohen's voice rang out from the side: "So you were talking about a brothel."

"......right."

Upon hearing the admission, Cohen took his drink and left his seat.

He walked over to Vodka and sat down, saying, "Can I see?"

"..."

Is this a winery?

A group of murderous killers?

Looking at the three people sitting together and sharing vodka and consulting on their mobile phones, Lin Jiashu felt a little weird.

He slowly finished his glass of orange blossom, thanked the bartender, and then stood up and left the bar - the sound of the bell when the bar door opened and closed did not affect the atmosphere of the three people.

Lin Jiashu walked out into the corridor and ran into Gin, who had just finished a phone call. Gin put his phone and hand in his pocket and glanced over at him: "Are you leaving?"

"Yes, but I suggest you go in ten minutes later, otherwise it will spoil their fun."

"?"

Gin just felt confused.

But Lin Jiashu has already left by now.

Chapter 91: The Fourteenth Target

"Dear citizens of Beika Town, the marine amusement facility 'Water Crystal', located near Tokyo Bay, will be grandly opening soon."

"Before this, our reporter went to Mr. Asahi Katsuyoshi's home today to interview him..."

There was no case reported on the TV news this morning.

Lin Jiashu had nothing to do, so he stayed in his own detective agency and had not received any commissions for the time being.

Get ready to code some words.

Lin Jiashu thought.

Although it cannot be seen from the calendar, Lin Jiashu can feel that it has been quite some time since the release of his last book.

Although you won’t be urged, you can still prepare first.

Lin Jiashu turned on the office computer, created a new document and was thinking about how to write the beginning when his cell phone rang at an inopportune time.

"Kashiki-san! Are you free now?"

It was Xiaolan's voice that came from the other end of the phone.

Her tone sounded extremely anxious, even with a hint of tears in her voice: "Mom is in the hospital now! It seems she has food poisoning--"

"what?!"

When Lin Jiashu heard this for the first time, he was a little stunned.

Food poisoning...

Because Hibiki Eri's Mini Cooper has not been dealt with yet, Lin Jiashu has been driving her to the law firm in recent days, and this morning they had a McDonald's meal together.

Did she eat anything else?

While Lin Jiashu was thinking, he blurted out: "Which hospital? I'll go there now."

Xiaolan immediately reported the name of the hospital.

At Dongda Hospital--

Lin Jiashu didn't hesitate much and hurried downstairs and drove to the hospital.

When he arrived, Xiaolan and the others who had received the news earlier were already waiting outside the operating room, and when Lin Jiashu arrived, the door of the operating room just opened.

"How's it going, doctor?"

"Family members? Don't worry, he was brought here just in time, and after gastric lavage, he's out of danger."

The doctor who came out explained the situation clearly, which made the group of people waiting outside the operating room breathe a sigh of relief.

Especially Xiaolan, whose heart was in a knot just now, was about to cry after she relaxed a moment ago.

Hayashi Yoshiki nodded to Kogoro Mouri, then looked at Midori Kuriyama who was standing next to Ran - she was Eri Kisaki's secretary and was quite familiar with Hayashi Yoshiki.

"Ms. Kuriyama, did Aunt Eri eat anything this morning?"

".....Teacher ate some Kicuba chocolate this morning. I don't know who gave it to her. Something felt wrong the moment she swallowed it."

"Chocolate?"

Lin Jiashu's eyes narrowed slightly.

Kicuba chocolate, that is Eri Kisaki's favorite dessert...but compared to this, he finally remembered what it was.

At this time, two nurses in the operating room pushed out Kisaki Eri's bed. During this process, Kisaki Eri remained conscious. With her hair loose, she tilted her head slightly and saw Xiaolan who ran over first.

"Mother....."

"I'm fine... Don't worry, Xiaolan."
