"Oh my god—" Chu Ming murmured in shock. What kind of high-tech radar is this Huiyuan Ai? The range of her sensing the organization's aura is wider than the system's map and focus...
It was not until now that he saw the focus that appeared at the edge of the system map and was slowly approaching this side - it was Vermouth.
What is she here for?
He just fooled Haibara Ai today, so don't come and expose his true identity.
He turned to Huibara Ai and said seriously, "You are right. Someone from the organization is coming. Stay in the car and don't get out. It's Vermouth. Don't worry. I am a code name member. She can't do anything to me."
Under Haibara Ai's worried gaze, Chu Ming got out of the car, closed the door, and walked towards the focus of Vermouth.
Facing Haibara Ai sideways, Chu Ming gave a polite smile to Vermouth who slowly emerged from the darkness with a somewhat anxious look on her face.
It was obviously just a normal smile to gain the trust of Huiyuan Ai, but in Vermouth's eyes, this smile seemed to be Chu Ming telling her that you are late...
At that moment, Vermouth's mind was in a mess, and her usual calmness seemed to have disappeared.
At that moment, Chu Ming looked at the points soaring in his system, and his smile was mixed with a bit of dullness.
What's going on?
His smile... is it so powerful?
Chapter 490 Do you want to usurp the throne?
Vermouth calmed down and asked, "Where are the people?"
Chu Ming didn't know what she was trying to say, was she asking Conan or Huiyuan Ai, so he asked back: "Which one are you talking about?"
Vermouth widened her eyes. Which one?
Which one else?
Could it be that Granburr not only killed Conan, but also Ran—
She suddenly became excited, moved closer to Chu Ming and grabbed his shoulders, looking at Chu Ming with rare anger in her eyes: "Didn't you promise me that you would protect them!"
Looking at Vermouth's angry face and the strong force on her shoulder, Chu Ming felt confused. He used his skill to push Vermouth's hand away, and his eyes became fierce.
"Are you going to go against the organization for these two people? Didn't I remind you that you are a member of the organization and shouldn't invest too much emotion in them!"
The two of them were talking at cross purposes and were not on the same channel at all, but they still managed to get along.
Vermouth clenched her hands. She looked at Chu Ming deeply, with many emotions flashing in her eyes. Her hand even touched the gun hidden at her waist. But looking at Chu Ming's face that she had seen since she was a child, she finally lowered her eyes helplessly.
At that moment, she seemed to have become much more haggard, and even her usually charming and beautiful face became a little decadent.
Although Chu Ming felt happy when he saw the points rising rapidly, he felt that Vermouth's emotion was too strange. He tilted his head, not caring that Haibara Ai was watching from behind, and pursed his lips, trying to comfort her.
"Sister? Don't be too sad. If you want to invest in your feelings, just do it... I didn't stop you. Why are you so sad all of a sudden..."
Vermouth opened her mouth, her voice a little dry: "Where is the body?"
???
Chu Ming was at a loss: "What corpse?"
Vermouth suddenly raised her head and looked at Chu Ming. She stared at Chu Ming for a long while before asking tentatively, "It is - Conan's body..."
Perhaps the confusion and bewilderment on Chu Ming's face were too obvious, Belmode seemed to realize something and asked hesitantly, "Am I... wrong?"
"Sister, why do you think I have killed someone...?"
Chu Ming took out his cell phone and looked at the message he sent to Vermouth. There was no strange reference in it. He just simply told her that Gin had noticed Haibara Ai and asked her to bring her to the organization. Her little boy might not be able to hide anymore.
This - he never mentioned from the beginning to the end that he killed Conan?
Vermouth felt a little embarrassed and kept silent.
"But you're right to worry. Since Gin has noticed Shirley, your little boy can't be hidden anymore. It's okay to mourn for him in advance." Chu Ming hinted.
"Are you going to negotiate with me?" Vermouth seemed to realize something. "Go ahead. As long as it's something I can do, I won't refuse."
"As expected of you, my sister. You really understand me." Chu Ming smiled with curved eyebrows and suddenly changed the subject, "I need you to take the blame for me."
When Vermouth heard this, her first reaction was: "What trouble have you gotten yourself into again?"
"...I didn't!!!" Chu Ming half-drooped his eyes, "What kind of image do you have of me in your mind? I do have a way to deal with Shirley's problem, but on one side is the request of my dear sister, and on the other side is the request of my respected elder brother, I am also in a dilemma——"
Chu Ming's tone was drawn out, but Vermouth didn't feel that she could hear any embarrassment in his words. Instead, she felt that Chu Ming was hinting wildly, "Bribe me, bribe me, bribe me."
"Just tell me your conclusion." Vermouth rubbed her forehead. She was also known for her mysticism in the organization. Seeing through people's hearts was almost her innate skill. However, this skill was rarely used on Chu Ming now. The main reason was that the child had grown up and his mind was wild and unpredictable, making it completely unpredictable.
"I disguised myself as you and went to deliver the goods to Gin." Chu Ming touched his chin, "I told you that I couldn't leave and asked you to go. If something goes wrong in the future and Gin finds out that the girl he noticed before is really Shirley and he was fooled, then it will be your problem."
"Then why not keep it simple and just tell Gin that I've met that girl, and she's not Shirley." Vermouth had seen Chu Ming's eye-catching actions and didn't want to lend her face to Chu Ming.
"How can that be possible!" How can I squeeze Ai's points if I don't send it to Gin? And Gin is a suspicious guy. Only the things he confirms with his own eyes are the truth. "Gin only believes in himself."
Vermouth looked at Chu Ming and shook her head slightly: "Not entirely, he doesn't just believe in himself."
"Oh, yes." Chu Ming suddenly realized, "He still believes in BOSS. After all, he is BOSS's little fanboy."
Vermouth's mouth twitched: "Where did you hear this?"
"You didn't hear that. I guessed it based on the facts."
Seeing that Vermouth didn't believe it, Chu Ming told her again about how Gin had been telling her about his boss's great achievements. After his further processing of the words, Gin seemed like a follower who followed his boss closely.
Vermouth's expression was very strange. Her instinct as a melon-eater made her listen with great interest. However, Chu Ming's exaggerated words made her doubt what he heard. Seeing that Chu Ming did not stop talking, she quickly interrupted him.
"Okay, what about Shirley? If you disguise her, Gin won't be able to hide it from her eyes. After all, Shirley grew up under Gin's supervision, and he has seen what Shirley looked like when she was a child. And she grew up in the organization, and her fingerprints and DNA are all archived in the organization." Vermouth was still a little worried.
"No need to change her appearance. I'll help Shirley put on some makeup. A slight change in makeup can change her temperament. As for DNA, isn't it enough as long as the one she makes doesn't match Shirley's archive in the organization? The program fragment of Noah's Ark that I intercepted last time can do it." Chu Ming pushed all the blame on Noah's Ark. After all, he couldn't say that he had a system mall and could get everything.
Vermouth nodded. She had also heard about Noah's Ark, but she didn't know when Chu Ming had intercepted a piece of the program.
What is he going to do with something so important to the boss...
She looked at Chu Ming with a deep gaze and asked slowly, "Are you planning to take the position yourself?"
The last four words were almost spoken to herself, and Chu Ming, with his good hearing, could not hear them clearly. He looked up in confusion and looked at Belmode in confusion: "What did my sister just say? What am I planning to do?"
“Nothing.” When Vermouth looked up, she still had her usual smile on her face, as if to emphasize or comfort herself, “Nothing.”
Chapter 491 Wealth Code
After the discussion, Vermouth calmed down and she felt that someone seemed to be staring at her from a distance.
She looked at Chu Ming's car parked in the distance with a sharp gaze. She took out her gun and said to Chu Ming, "It seems that a kitten got into your car. I——"
Chu Ming stopped her, grabbed her gun and blocked her view, and said, "It's the kitten you know, and the one you're going to bring to Gin."
"You brought her here? You told her your identity?" Vermouth's face changed, "Does Conan know about it too?"
She felt a black screen before her eyes. Once Chu Ming's identity as a traitor to the Red Team was exposed, Gin would hunt her down all over Japan! Especially if Conan knew about it, with his curiosity...
Chu Ming shook his head: "Only Shirley knows, and before I became a code member, Shirley also met me, and Gin asked me to take her to meet her sister. So Shirley knew about my identity from the beginning. But she won't say anything."
"...Okay, just keep it in mind."
Vermouth was relieved. This was Gin's problem. It was Gin who gave the task of taking Shirley out for a walk to Granburr. But could this be the reason why Gin was so anxious to hunt down Shirley?
A time bomb who knows Chu Ming's identity. Given Gin's overly cautious nature, he would never allow this traitor to stay outside.
Vermouth put away the gun: "Then I'll leave first?"
"Wait." Chu Ming seemed to have thought of something, "Since I have such an important thing to do, then my sister's mission may be--"
Vermouth's mouth twitched. In order to mess with Chu Ming, she took on all the tasks that could be taken by the organization, which was probably the amount of tasks she could complete in a year. But now, how come these tasks are back in her hands after all the twists and turns? ? ?
Chu Ming was in a good mood and forwarded the task list to Belmode again: "Thank you for your hard work, sister~"
Vermouth was helpless and sighed softly: "Okay, let me do the rest. Which ones have you completed? Let me check."
Chu Ming looked innocent: "Don't bother, I didn't do any of it."
???
Vermouth looked incredulous: "It's been so many days, and you haven't started the mission yet?"
"Don't worry, don't worry. I knew things would turn around. Look, now I have a kind-hearted, beautiful, generous and brilliant sister to help me with the mission~" Chu Ming tried his best to flatter Vermouth.
"I really owe you..." Vermouth held her forehead with her hand. Fortunately, she had transferred Bourbon from Chu Ming before. She could still ask Bourbon to help her with some tasks in the future. After all, Bourbon's identity was in her hands. She would definitely be willing to help with this little favor.
Having made up her mind, Vermouth didn't want to stay here any longer. Who knew if Chu Ming would come up with something to exploit her later? So she said something and left in a hurry.
Chu Ming stood there and waited for her to walk away before walking towards the car in the distance. He deliberately parked the car farther away to prevent Huibara Ai from hearing anything she shouldn't hear.
When Chu Ming returned to the car, what he saw was Huihara Ai, whose face was pale and whose mouth was wide open, breathing heavily like a stranded fish. It was obvious that she was frightened by the sudden eye contact between her and Vermouth, and she even forgot to breathe.
"Brother Chu Ming, did Vermouth see me just now..." Huiyuan Ai shrank back a little, and she spoke with difficulty, "I didn't mean to look over, I just saw her suddenly attack you..."
Chu Ming's car was parked too far away, so she didn't hear what Chu Ming and Belmode were talking about. In addition, both of them were facing sideways towards her, but she saw Belmode step forward and want to fight with Chu Ming. Then, after she didn't know what Chu Ming said to her, she even touched the gun at her waist!
She wants to kill Brother Chu Ming!
Haibara Ai was so excited that her breathing became a little rapid. In addition, she stared at that place with a burning gaze because of worry. After all, Vermouth was professionally trained and was very sensitive to such gazes, so she immediately noticed her peeping.
The moment Vermouth looked over, Huihara Ai felt as if she couldn't breathe. She froze in her seat, her mind blank. She wanted to run, but her legs seemed to be completely out of control of her brain, and she stopped dead in place. She could only watch Vermouth's eyes reveal murderous intent and she pulled out her gun.
Then, Brother Chu Ming used his body to block the muzzle of the gun!
At that moment, Huiyuan Ai felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She was almost drowned by self-blame. It was she who exposed her whereabouts, and she even asked Chu Mingge to help her cover it up...
Her fingers were already on the car door switch. She couldn't let Brother Chu Ming take such a big risk for her. Vermouth was not an easy person to deal with.
But before she could take action, Chu Ming didn't know what he said to Vermouth, but she just put the gun back, gave him a meaningful look, turned around and said something to Chu Ming before leaving.
She knew that Vermouth would not be able to say anything nice, especially when she saw Chu Ming frowning at Vermouth's back and falling into deep thought for a long time before returning to the car.
Haibara Ai's heart slowly sank. Chu Ming was in deep thought for so long. Vermouth must have mentioned her just now.
Huihara Ai felt that she was ready and gently tugged at the corner of Chu Ming's clothes.
"Brother Chu Ming, Brother Chu Ming?"
When Chu Ming was thinking about whether to knock Huihara Ai out directly or give her some drugs, he heard Huihara Ai calling him. He turned his head and looked at Huihara Ai: "Xiao Ai, what's wrong?"
"Vermouth discovered me just now, didn't she..." Huiyuan Ai bit her lower lip lightly, "Did she ask you to hand me over to the organization?"
Chu Ming did not hide it from her, but took the opportunity to pretend to be sad: "I'm sorry, Xiao Ai, I said I would protect you, but in the end -"
Huihara Ai even tried to comfort him: "Brother Chu Ming, you have helped me a lot. If it weren't for you, there would be no Huihara Ai. I might have died when I was escaping from the organization..."
