Vodka looked at the strange black mass in the painting and almost couldn't catch his breath. His smile was uglier than crying: "Well, Granburch, it's, my face, actually, how about -"
Chu Ming looked at him talking incoherently and trying desperately to find excuses to shirk responsibility, and his face deliberately darkened: "Are you kidding me? I already said it was a custom face, and I've already painted it. Now you tell me you don't want to do it? Come over here quickly!"
Vodka was in tears and reluctantly sat down in Gin's seat, closing his eyes as if ready to die.
Why am I always the unlucky one?!
Seeing that no one believed him, Chu Ming was a little indignant. He quickly smeared the makeup on Vodka's face and soon finished disguising Vodka: "Alright."
Vodka slowly opened his eyes, his eyes full of despair, and he didn't want to see what his face looked like.
Chianti, on the other hand, had been staring in that direction, and because Chu Ming had been blocking Vodka's view, she could not see at all. When Chu Ming made his announcement and stepped aside, she was ready to open her mouth and laugh at Vodka, but then she saw Vodka's face clearly.
The laughter stopped abruptly in her throat. She took a breath uncontrollably but choked accidentally. After coughing heart-wrenchingly for a long time, she slowly raised her head and stared at the wild and strong face in front of her, unable to take her eyes away for a long time.
His face had deep and distinct contours and several scars across it, which made him look more casual. Combined with Vodka's well-trained muscular body, he looked really strong and mighty.
It cannot be said that this disguise is exactly the same as the painting he drew. It can only be said that they are completely unrelated!
How did Granburch manage to look so handsome in disguise while his paintings were so ugly?
Chapter 532 Strange
Feeling the shocked look on his face, Vodka followed the gaze and saw that Chianti was staring at him as if he wanted to eat him.
The next second, Chianti pushed Cohen away and turned to Chu Ming: "Granburch, do you still accept custom-made faces? I want one too."
???
Vodka was full of question marks on his face. I've never heard that Chianti has a hobby of making himself look ugly before?
Then there is only one possibility...
He stood up suddenly and walked to the mirror next to Vermouth. The moment he saw his appearance clearly, his eyes widened in surprise.
He can still be so handsome!
This is worth 800,000!!!
Ignoring Vodka's sudden silly laugh, Chu Ming was very happy with the business that came to his door. He changed Chianti's face to a more mature and charming one, and happily earned 100 million again.
Alas, it turns out that making money is fast in the organization.
While thinking, Chu Ming kept working. He made an ordinary disguise for himself, then took out his computer and started looking up information.
Vodka has checked some of the information about the Red Siamese cats, and several members have been marked out, but their hiding places have not been found yet.
Chu Ming planned to check it out himself to see if he could track them down.
While Chu Ming was typing on the computer, Vermouth had also finished everything. Gin looked at Vodka and Chianti, whose faces looked as if they were going to walk on the red carpet, and frowned. Then he thought of something and relaxed in an instant.
Being too good-looking is indeed easy to be remembered, which is not conducive to infiltration. However, these two people have fake faces, so it is not a big problem. On the contrary, they can provide some smoke bombs after evacuation.
Everyone sat around on the sofa, preparing to listen to Gin's arrangements when Chu Ming pressed the last key.
"Found it." Chu Ming stretched his neck and blinked when he saw everyone staring at him. "What's wrong? What are you looking at me for?"
"What did you find?" Lafitte couldn't help but complain, "You suddenly shouted, are you dissatisfied with my heart beating too slowly?"
"Yeah, why didn't I scare you to death..." Chu Ming rolled his eyes and turned to Gin and said, "Those red Siamese cats, I know where they are going next."
As he spoke, Chu Ming connected the computer to the big screen in the living room. His fingers jumped nimbly on the keyboard. With the touch of his fingertips, a picture appeared in the center of the screen. It was a magnificent airship in the sky.
Chu Ming placed the 3D image of the airship on the big screen and even turned it around for everyone to see: "This is the giant airship Belle Sherry II that Suzuki Group has just developed. The purpose of the red Siamese cat should be to board this airship."
"We can sneak in ahead of time. Once the airship leaves the surface, that group of people will be like trapped in a cage in the air, and they won't be able to escape." Chianti suggested excitedly.
"Then why do they go to so much trouble to ride the airship? What do they need inside it?" Vermouth murmured as she looked at the airship on the screen.
Chu Ming entered the command again, and a luxurious jewel appeared on the screen. The oval blue gem glowed faintly on the screen: "It may be this gem, which is worth 35 billion and is called the Lady of the Sky. Of course, it is also possible that it is for revenge. I checked. It was Suzuki Jiro who helped the red Siamese cat to be arrested. This time they reappeared in the world, and it is also possible that they came for revenge."
"This gem is nice, I like it." Vermouth looked at the deep blue gem on the screen, her fingertips touching the corners of her lips, charming everyone, "Why don't we bring the gem back when we go there this time?"
"We don't know how many bottles of the virus they took away yet. Before boarding the ship, remember to keep the antidote for the virus with you, just in case." Gin ignored Vermouth, but frowned. He turned to look at Chu Ming, "This should be a private airship test flight event held by the Suzuki Group. How are we going to get in with so many people?"
Chu Ming spread his hands and said, "I have definitely been invited, but you guys - how about this, you guys fly a helicopter to the airship, and then jump off by yourselves? And the Red Siamese Cats probably won't get on the airship right away. I'll use my current identity to go there in advance to make some preparations, and then I'll pick you up. I'll notify you when they get on the airship."
Gin nodded, agreed to Chu Ming's suggestion, and turned to look at Vodka: "Prepare an unmarked helicopter."
Vodka was about to nod, but suddenly thought that if he flew the helicopter, wouldn't he have the chance to accompany Gin and the others on the mission? Wouldn't his reputation be wasted?
But he never opposed Gin's decision, so he could only respond silently.
Chu Ming looked at Vodka's dejected look, chuckled and added: "Send someone who can fly a helicopter from the periphery. Vodka should act with us this time."
Gin saw Vodka looking up in surprise, and glanced at him furtively, expecting him to agree. He felt a little headache, but he didn't object.
Vermouth leaned on the back of the sofa, looking at Gin, and suddenly a strange smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She tilted her head and whispered to Lafitte beside her: "Look, after being with that little bastard for a long time, Gin seems to have become a little more human. If the organization is without him, it will be half less interesting."
Lafitte's eyes swept across the faces of everyone present, and then glanced at Belmode, as if to confirm something. He leaned back, got close to Belmode's ear, and whispered to Belmode in a voice that was almost a whisper: "So you are helping him win me over?"
There was scorn in Lafitte's eyes. They were all thousand-year-old foxes. It was pointless to play "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". They were so old. Why were they trying to win people's hearts? Was it important to have human touch in the organization?
Granburch is already the heir. It has only been a short time, and he is already dissatisfied with the status quo?
Power, ah, is indeed the most corrupting thing.
Vermouth glanced at Lafitte. His usually indifferent face now showed a little irritation. His fingers were stirring back and forth in his neatly groomed long hair, as if trying to cover up his uneasy heart.
She slightly adjusted her posture to make herself more comfortable, and looked at the slightly anxious Lafitte, with a slight curve at the corner of her mouth. She closed her eyes as if she was in a good mood, and no one knew what she was thinking.
Chu Ming's body had been strengthened many times, and even the slightest sound could not escape his ears, so he also heard the confrontation between Lafitte and Vermouth, and glanced at both of them with suspicion.
Something seems to be wrong with both Vermouth and Lafitte.
Why did Vermouth suddenly help him win over Lafitte? And she seemed to know Lafitte's pain points accurately, and one sentence could make him lose his composure.
Back to Lafitte, his reaction was really weird.
When faced with solicitation, one either readily agrees or angrily opposes. How can one become - emotionally anxious?
Chapter 533 Three Fools Sitting in a Row
Chu Ming kept all his thoughts deep in his heart and did not show anything on his face.
Although I am very curious, now is obviously not the time to explore it. I will explore this in detail later.
Gin pressed his slender knuckles on the armrest, tapping it from time to time. After a long while, he spoke: "What is the exact time for the airship to take off?"
"The exact time from Tokyo to Osaka is still unclear, but there will be a notice in the newspaper tomorrow morning at the latest." Chu Ming closed the program on the screen. "The old man of the Suzuki family always likes to challenge Kaito Kid. This is the largest airship in the world, plus the expensive gem. This is very likely another challenge to Kaito Kid. Every challenge he makes will be published in the newspaper. We will know tomorrow."
"Wait until tomorrow?" Vermouth suddenly spoke up, and she signaled with her eyes to the people around her who were in disguise, "If you had said you would start tomorrow, why would I change my appearance now? Wouldn't I have to fix it again tomorrow morning?"
Vodka and Chianti, who had paid for it, looked over with wide eyes, fearing that Chu Ming would take advantage of the situation and blackmail them again tomorrow morning.
Receiving the looks from the two, Chu Ming expressed deep condemnation for their lack of trust in his character: "Why are you looking at me? Am I the kind of person you think I am?"
After hearing what Chu Ming said, Vodka and Chianti looked a little embarrassed.
Chu Ming continued: "I sell it very cheaply! Only one hundred thousand is enough!"
The corner of Vermouth's mouth twitched. As expected, Granburch was the best at making money.
"..."
"..."
"Why are you looking at me like that? I've already given you a 100% discount, and you're still not considerate?" Chu Ming couldn't believe it. "This face originally costs million. Even if you tear it apart out of boredom tonight, I won't add a penny!"
"Thank you so much." Chianti's mouth twitched, "I won't sleep tonight. I'll stay up all night to avoid wrinkling my million-dollar face."
"..." Chu Ming was also speechless. He was just joking. If the disguise was really so fragile, then he would have learned it for nothing.
But he would not remind them. He wanted to see if there was really a fool who didn't sleep tonight.
It just so happened that this safe house was a semi-public safe house that Lafitte used for external medical consultations, and it was not his private property, so several people rested directly in Lafitte's safe house at night.
But Chianti and the others didn't sleep that night. After all, when Chu Ming woke up early in the morning, he saw her and Vodka sitting on the sofa playing cards, and Cohen, who had dark circles under his eyes and yawned one after another...
Well, there really are fools, and there are three of them.
Chu Ming ignored them and went out to a nearby newsstand to buy a newspaper. On the front page of the newspaper, the Red Siamese Cat made provocative remarks on the Internet, saying that the virus was indeed stolen by them and they would take action within seven days. As for where they would use the virus and what specific actions they would take, nothing was clearly stated on the Internet.
Chu Ming flipped through a few pages and the next page showed the back and forth between Suzuki Jirokichi and Kaito Kid. First, Suzuki Jirokichi publicly stated that he was ready for another challenge, and the next thing was that Kaito Kid issued a notice saying that he would accept the invitation and arrive on time.
Looking at this challenge that was relegated to the second page, and then looking at the red Siamese cat’s challenge declaration on the front page, Wang Feng from the Suzuki family must be very angry, after all, he values the headlines so much…
After taking the newspaper back, as soon as he entered the door, Chianti and Vodka stared at Chu Ming. Chianti asked eagerly: "When will we take action? Is there any news in the newspaper?"
Chu Ming shook the newspaper and smiled. "The news released by the Red Siamese Cat said that the action will be taken within seven days. The airship of the Suzuki family will take off the day after tomorrow. Congratulations, you have stayed up all night. Are you going to stay up until the morning of the day after tomorrow? Then I hope you don't fall asleep while standing when doing the mission."
"...The day after tomorrow?!!!" Chianti's face twisted, he angrily threw the cards on the table and turned away.
"Chianti, where are you going?" Vodka looked at the cards flying at him, then looked at Chianti who was about to walk into the basement, and asked.
"Go to bed!" Chianti cursed quietly, "I got ripped off by Granburch. I wasted an extra hundred thousand dollars and stayed up an extra night for nothing."
Although Cohen didn't say anything, he quickly threw down the cards as if he had been pardoned, and followed him down to rest.
Vodka was left sitting alone in the living room. He was stunned for a moment, then resignedly cleaned up the mess and went to bed, comforting himself.
Forget it, just buy one less action figure and you’ll get the ten thousand back.
When Gin came up from his morning exercise in the basement, the only person left in the living room was Chu Ming, who was lying on the sofa, drowsy, with a newspaper covering his face.
Gin walked forward, took down the newspaper and looked through it, and confirmed that there were still two days before the mission, so he planned to take Vodka to do two small tasks first, but after looking around, he didn't see his younger brother.
Chu Ming woke up when Gin took the newspaper off his face. He half-opened his eyes and glanced at Gin's disguise, and found that a night's sleep had not caused any effect on his disguise. He said, his skills were not so bad that the disguise would be destroyed in one night's sleep...
"Afu went to sleep. He played cards with Chianti and the others all night last night. They just finished playing all night and the three of them went to rest." Chu Ming did not mention that it was because of the 100,000 he casually mentioned yesterday that caused the incident.
Gin's brows slowly frowned: "What about Vermouth and Lafitte?"
"The two of them sneaked away last night. I don't know where they went." Chu Ming heard the noise in the middle of the night. "But Vermouth sent me a message saying that they will be back when it's time to act."
Thinking of this, Chu Ming approached Gin with interest and said, "Do you know what the connection is between Vermouth and Lafitte? There seems to be some story between them that I don't know~"
Gin indifferently pushed away Chu Ming's head that was leaning forward: "It has nothing to do with you."
Chu Ming turned his head to avoid Gin's hand and continued to move towards him: "Brother, just tell me, I'm so curious!"
Gin frowned as he looked at Chu Ming who was clinging to him like a dog-skin plaster. "Vodka, take a rest. Then you and I will go on the mission."
"Sure, no problem. Big brother's business is my business!" Chu Ming agreed quickly in order to eat melons, "Then big brother, tell me about it on the way~"
