Upon hearing this, Pisco's face instantly darkened.

"You want me to betray the organization? I tell you, this is impossible!"

Pisco refused coldly:

"Besides, I have made great contributions to the organization. There is no way that gentleman would treat me like this!"

He said it with absolute certainty, but in response, Hoshino Aoi just raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly:

"Really? Then what about today's mission? Why did Vermouth and Gin appear here one after another?"

Seeing Pisco open his mouth and seem to want to say something, Hoshino Aoi raised her hand and interrupted him before he could speak:

"Don't tell me Gin is here to hunt down Shirley. After all, you and I both know what she looks like now. But Gin obviously doesn't know about this, otherwise the organization wouldn't be so quiet. So how did he know for sure that Shirley would show up here?"

Of course she knew that Gin guessed Miyano Shiho's subsequent actions because of a hair and a bug, but Pisco didn't know.

In addition, with her previous words as a prelude, Pisco subconsciously followed her words and took it for granted that Gin came here entirely on the orders of that gentleman to get rid of him.

Pisco hesitated.

After all, no one would want to die if possible, and Pisco is no exception.

But……

His eyes were fixed on Hoshino Aoi. He couldn't say that he completely disbelieved what she had just said, but he definitely didn't believe it completely either.

after all……

"You have now betrayed the organization."

He whispered:

"So you think I would believe the words of a traitor?"

"I knew you would say that..."

Hearing Pisco's words, the corners of Hoshino Aoi's lips curled up, and she ignored the gun pointed at her and walked straight towards him and Haibara Ai.

"Xiao Kui!"

Seeing this, Zhu Fu Jingguang subconsciously called her softly, as if he wanted to stop her actions, but when he met her glance, he paused when he was about to stop her. Although he still couldn't control his worry in his heart, he finally let her act.

Pisco obviously noticed this as well. His eyes flashed, but he didn't say anything.

Of course, he also did not make any suspicious moves, but just watched quietly, watching her approach little by little, pass by him, walk to the fireplace not far from them, and squat down.

"Speaking of which, here..."

She stretched out her finger and gently stroked the ground directly below the fireplace. Then she twisted her fingertips and asked with a smile:

"Did any of you climb up there just now?"

"I...I climbed up."

Haibara Ai's breathing was a little heavy. Obviously, what happened today was beyond her tolerance. Haibara Ai didn't even know what expression she should make.

So she hadn't spoken before.

It was only then, when she heard Hoshino Aoi asking if anyone had climbed out of the chimney, that she softly replied:

"But I saw Gin outside, so..."

She did not hide her identity.

After all, not to mention that Hoshino Aoi had seen her as a child, so even if she wanted to hide it, she probably couldn't hide it from her. Just take the words that Hoshino Aoi just said, the meaning is very obvious.

She already knew that she was now a child.

Of the people present, Edogawa Conan, Pisco and Hoshino Aoi also knew about this, and neither of them seemed to want to hide it, so who knows when the only person who doesn't know will find out...

If that's the case, then is there any need for her to hide?

So naturally, she told him that she had just been blocked by Gin upstairs.

"I see..."

Hoshino Aoi didn't look back. Even when she heard Haibara Ai implicitly admitting that she was Shirley, she just looked quietly at the fireplace in front of her and slowly frowned.

"So, do you think he'll come out from here soon? To be honest, I'd really like to see Gin come out of the fireplace covered in dust..."

"That's not impossible."

Zhu Fujingguang was shocked at first by what Huibara Ai said.

After all, he had heard of 'Sulli', but no matter what, the 'Sulli' he knew was an 18-year-old girl, not the girl in front of him who looked only 7 or 8 years old.

However, after seeing that Hoshino Aoi and Pisco had no reaction to this, Zhu Fujingguang pursed his lips, suppressed his doubts in his heart, and responded to Hoshino Aoi's words with a smile.

"After all, you just sent people to round him up. If he finds that the downstairs is full of police and there's no way to leave, it's normal for him to think of leaving from here, right?"

"So if we block the chimney, he won't be able to do anything about it, right?"

Thinking of this possibility, Hoshino Aoi's eyes lit up, and as she spoke, she began looking for flammable materials.

But obviously, this wine cellar is filled with nothing but wine. It is not an easy task to pile up combustible materials and then set them on fire.

Pisco had never expected her thoughts to move so fast, and for a moment he couldn't keep up with her pace.
