103 Chapter 103

"If you don't need this mouth, I can do it for you."

After this sudden question was asked, Miyano Shiho stared at Hanano Chihoko in a daze and did not speak for a long time.

There was a self-deprecating look in Hanano Chihoko's eyes as if she had expected this. She mechanically picked up the water cup beside her, her voice a little hoarse.

"You don't have to answer me so quickly. You can think about it for a few days. After all, I can't guarantee anything."

Having said that, Hanano Chiheko forced herself to calm down, and looked at Miyano Shiho with a twinkle in her eyes, "I just don't miss you... Forget it."

Hanano Chihoko gave another bitter smile, turned her head slightly and put the cup back in its original place intact. Only the slight ripples in the water proved that it had been moved.

Miyano Shiho looked at Hanano Chihoko with a deep look in her eyes.

Hanano Chiheko stopped looking at Miyano Shiho and instead stared at the ripples in the cup beside her. She pursed her lips silently and lowered her head. "I, I just wanted to give you more choices. I just..."

"Sister, don't say anything."

Before she finished her words, Hanano Chihoko's body was suddenly thrown into a warm embrace.

"I know everything." Miyano Shiho's voice was low, but it sounded like heavenly music to Hanano Chihoko's ears.

Chihoko Hanano's pupils shrank slightly. After being stunned for a while, she took a deep breath in surprise. She couldn't believe that Shiho Miyano, one of her few real relatives in this world, could hug her so easily and hold her tightly.

"Oh, I'm fine, really!"

Hanano Chihoko's eyes suddenly turned red, and she began to speak in a disingenuous manner. "You don't know, I'm actually... don't look at me like this, I'm actually quite strong. I never cry over trivial matters. Haha, what nonsense am I talking about?"

Hanano Chihoko sniffed softly, then realized that Miyano Shiho had been listening to her nonsense without a word. Suddenly, she asked a soul-searching question: "Shiho, do you think there's something wrong with my brain? Well, I did hit my head once, and... sometimes I can be quite neurotic."

As Hanano Chihoko was talking, she got herself confused and actually had a tendency to think that she was not normal.

Miyano Shiho said, "You are my sister. Since I am so smart, how could anything go wrong with you?"

In an instant, an indescribable bitterness spread from Hanano Chiheko's heart to every part of her body, causing her eyes to blur and sob once again.

Miyano Shiho raised her hand and gently patted Hanano Chihoko's back, and her short brown hair brushed against her earlobe.

I don’t know whose defenses were slowly being worn down by the intermittent crying.

Later, Hanano Chiheko didn't know how long she cried, she only knew that Miyano Shiho had been coaxing her in her ear and calling her sister.

Chiheko Hanano slept exceptionally well that night. It was as if she was in a fairyland, and she felt quite euphoric.

The next day, when Hanano Chiheko got up, Miyano Shiho was no longer by her side, but there was still baked bread and warm milk on the table.

Calculating the time of the special car, it should have just left not long ago...

Chiheko Hanano picked up the bread and took a big bite. The bread was baked to a fragrant and delicious taste. It was so delicious!

Her sister is indeed very smart and can learn anything quickly.

Chihoko Hanano thought with a somewhat family-like filter and smiled silently.

Compared to Miyano Shiho's punctual pick-up and drop-off, Hanano Chihoko, because she runs between the task force and the laboratory, uses her almost magical slacking skills to make a profit from the price difference as a middleman, leaving herself with a lot of "free" time.

So, Chihoko Hanano, whose mood and health were relatively good today, arrived at the action team leisurely around noon.

Hanano Chihoko saw Chianti and Cohen and said, "Good afternoon, Masters~"

Chihoko Hanano greeted her, but saw Chianti wiping her PSG-1 sniper rifle with an unhappy look on her face. She just hummed in her throat as a response.

Hanano Chihoko, who was already very familiar with Chianti, immediately smelled some tension. She cleverly avoided the bad luck of touching Chianti, moved closer to Cohen, and expressed her curiosity with her eyes.

Cohen glanced at Chianti, then turned his head and whispered to Hanano Chihoko, "Vermouth came back a few days ago."

"Vermouth..."

Hanano Chiheko murmured the familiar name, and then when she realized who it was, a look of understanding appeared on her face, "Is it that beautiful lady?"

Chianti keenly noticed Hanano Chihoko's soft pronunciation and scoffed, "Don't mention that woman in front of me."

"Oh, which woman is it?"

The magnetic voice unique to a mature woman sounded not far behind Chiheko Hanano and the others.

When Hanano Chiheko heard the sound, she looked over and saw a handsome man and a beautiful woman appear at the entrance of the training ground, walking towards them.

When Gin, the leader, looked at them, there was no expression on his face, and he only stayed on Hanano Chihoko for a moment.

Chihoko Hanano passed by Gin unnoticed and looked at the extremely beautiful blonde beauty, Vermouth, who was standing next to Gin.

"Tsk—" Chianti's face twisted for a moment, and he turned away in disgust.

There are countless secrets hidden in Vermouth's blue eyes, as if they have experienced many hardships, but this is not consistent with her extremely young face.

Chihoko Hanano lowered her eyes and came to a conclusion: it was incomprehensible and very dangerous.

This kind of danger is different from Gin's murderous aura that is so direct that it slaps people in the face. It is a sixth sense that is unique to women and is a hundred times more accurate than the conclusion calculated by any precision instrument.

You can't have too much contact with Vermouth, especially for someone like you who is full of secrets.

This was the conclusion that Chihoko Hanano came to the next moment.

But to Chihoko Hanano's surprise, almost the moment they approached, Vermouth came to Chihoko Hanano and took her hand intimately.

While Chihoko Hanano was looking at Vermouth, Vermouth was also looking at her.

"It's you, interesting little girl!" Vermouth raised his tone and talked to Hanano Chihoko with great interest.

Chihoko Hanano expressed her confusion about the question, "Why did Vermouth treat her like an old friend when they had just met for the first time?"

Hanano Chihoko wondered for a moment if she had forgotten some details again and tilted her head slightly, "Have we... met before?"

"Gin, don't you have a mission?"

Chianti, who had been enduring Vermouth's patience to the point of veins popping out, just wanted to get as far away from this woman as possible and speak up to speed up the process.

"What mission?"

Hanano Chihoko spoke in confusion.

The text message she received this morning only contained instructions to gather here for a meeting, and did not mention any tasks.

Gin looked at Hanano Chihoko's still pale face and said, "You don't have to go."

Hanano Chihoko blinked, "Then why am I here..."

"It's me who wants to see you." Vermouth said to Hanano Chihoko with a sweet smile, but there was a different meaning in her voice, "There's something I want to confirm."

Look at the meaning of these words... I don’t want to tell Chihoko Hanano about this “thing”.

Chihoko Hanano got a reading comprehension question right as she wished.

As expected, no matter where you go, the top executives are all riddlers. Hanano Chihoko complained in her heart, but still showed an innocent smile on her face.

After Gin finished assigning the tasks, Chianti and Cohen left the training room early.

The main reason was that Chianti felt that staying with Vermouth was more painful than being shot.

Chihoko Hanano was not on any missions and had nothing to do. Seeing that Gin and Vermouth had not left yet, she simply said hello and went to practice shooting on her own.

"Bang!"

"Nine Rings."

Chihoko Hanano tried her best to ignore the burning gazes cast at her from behind and continued training.

"Have you seen enough?"

Gin looked quite impatient.

Upon hearing this, Vermouth withdrew her gaze from Hanano Chihoko and looked at Gin with a slight curl of her lips. "Do you think that the leak of the mission to eliminate Shibata Shoichi was due to your good sister?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the cold muzzle of a gun suddenly pointed at Vermouth's plump red lips.

In a flash, Gin's cold voice reached Vermouth's ears: "If you don't need this mouth, I can do it for you."

Vermouth unhappily lifted the muzzle of Gin's gun, her eyes full of danger. "I'm not kidding you, you know what I'm talking about."

【Author’s words】

Chihoko Hanano reached an agreement with both Gin and Chianti for the first time: Riddler doesn't need to work [burst into tears]
