Chapter 38: A genius with an IQ of 180 is being tricked into giving a bad expression...

No matter how high your IQ is, it instantly drops to -250 when you meet someone you care about. Love is truly a giant debuff machine. #Sulli's Brain Failure Record#

Huiyuan was stunned, her expression rarely controlled. She realized she had let the cat out of the bag: "I was talking about Conan-kun."

#Sulli's Brain Blue Screen Record# Error 404: Tsundere Defense.exe has stopped responding. The genius scientist's CPU burned out due to emotional overload.

A major failure in facial expression control. Screenshots of famous scenes are in order. The contrast between her usual aloofness and pupils is incredible. Her cuteness is at an all-time high.

Pause screenshots. Must pause screenshots here. A rare crack in the genius scientist's icy face. Adorable. Want to pinch it.

"Conan-kun" or something... Emergency switch to childish mode. Want to use cuteness to purify the other party? Scientists' self-rescue methods are too unique.

Trying to get away with it by pretending to be an elementary school student. Unfortunately, the person standing opposite you is a thousand-year-old vixen.

The flaws of a genius with a high IQ are only revealed in front of certain people. Case solved. Bei Jie is Huiyuan's special person. Her unconsciousness is exposed in front of Bei Jie.

This remedy is so pale, like a college student's face the night before DDL.

The precision instrument encountered force majeure (Baijie's beauty + IQ suppression), the output result: 100% pure cuteness.

Scientific rationality is vulnerable to chaotic love (?). Even Heisenberg couldn't measure Huibara's heartbeat at this moment.

"Meng Hun Cheng Guan" vs. "Millennium Fox Demon"... A novice warrior challenges a max-level boss. The outcome: He's instantly reduced to dust, which increases the opponent's pleasure.

"No, he's not a primary school student."

KO

Bei Jie didn't even bother to argue with you, just stating the facts directly, blocking all of Ai-chan's escape routes with one sentence. What do you call this? This is called "factual breakdown."

Bayonetta's ultimate move. She flipped the table. She even threw away Conan-kun's fig leaf. #DimensionalityReductionStrike# The power of negation.

No explanation, no room for negotiation, only the Queen's final verdict. The sense of oppression is overwhelming.

The subtext of this sentence is, "Stop acting, Shirley. This won't work with me. Our communication should be on a deeper level."

#The Guillotine of Language# Sister Bei: Argument? That's something only the weak need. The strong only need to announce the results. #In the face of absolute power, all tricks are paper tigers#

I'm too lazy to argue. It's not very harmful, but it's extremely insulting. #贝姐の节能主义#

Vermouth slowly approached Haibara: "The famous high school detective, Kudo Shinichi, has shrunk to the size of a seven-year-old child. Just like you. There are so many secrets between us, aren't there, Shirley?"

"Secrets" are their deepest bond and also their most dangerous game.

The final "Shirley." Her real name is Critical Hit. She rips away all pretense and gets to the heart of the matter. Her rhetoric would have inspired Sartre to write a spin-off of "Being and Nothingness."

Directly strip off the protective shell of "Haibara Ai" and force her to face her past and the complicated relationship between them.

In the face of absolute power, tsundere is just a hobby (fog).

Sister Bei's words "There are too many secrets between us" are more like:

A. The villain's death notice B. The yandere's confession prelude C. The signing of an accomplice's contract D. All of the above (You know how to play the game of Sister Beijie)

(Please type the public screen on the answer.)

Please select the true intention of Vermouth's action:

A. Confirm intelligence and complete organizational tasks

B. Enjoy the thrill of playing cat and mouse, just doing bad things

C. Flirting is flirting, no objections

D. By sharing "forbidden knowledge" (you both become smaller), an exclusive intimate space is constructed, separating Haibara from the "Kudo" camp and pulling her into the category of "us".

Choose D. This is the semiotic equivalent of "collusion." Translated into human language, it means, "Ai-chan, stop hiding. We're in this together, and that detective is an outsider."

This kind of dancing on the edge of a knife, using secrets as the stakes... If Simone de Beauvoir saw this, she would have to light a cigarette for Baylor and say, "Sister, you are so cool."

Vermouth is reminding Huibara that they are from the same world. Sharing trauma is the ultimate catalyst for ambiguity. #SuspensionBridgeEffectpromax#

Huiyuan didn't answer. To deny it at this point would be an insult to both of their intelligence.

Her IQ of 180 made it impossible for her to make any more unnecessary excuses.

There is no naivety, no misunderstandings or melodrama, just an extreme tug-of-war between adults based on intelligence and tacit understanding.

The silence at this moment is worth a thousand words. The air is filled with the smell of fermenting secrets.

Silence = acquiescence. A duel between two intelligent ladies requires no nonsense.

Existentialism Class: When lies lose their meaning, truth begins to flow - Sartre praises.

"Ah, to be honest, I feel like life is so boring lately."

Vermouth won this round, stretching softly. Sexy and defenseless, yet full of control, she deliberately displayed her curves, the physical temptation of a scheming actress. “Besides, I want to see if he can figure it out. This is a rather dramatic discovery.”

At this moment, Vermouth was like a cat playing with a ball of yarn after a good meal. And Haibara was that ball of yarn.

The Queen’s “boredom” is not real boredom, but a gesture of “playing with you”.

And she, in the midst of the glamour of Hollywood, could say this.

Perhaps it’s because her life is like a play, and at this moment, Haibara and Kudo have become the two most interesting characters in her script.

After all, her life is an Oscar-worthy suspense romance movie. One of the former heroines was Yukiko Kudo.

Treat the life-and-death game like a TV series. Sister Bei's aesthetic of pleasure is fully revealed.

"Dramatic" = "I want to see the memes of Shirley and the little detective"

"My life is not your movie." Huiyuan said as he put the notebook back to its place: "In real life, everyone will die."

A beautiful counterattack, trying to regain the initiative and pull Vermouth down from the position of "director". #IndependentWomenSpeak#

Huiyuan is reminding Vermouth, and herself: You can afford to play, but I can't. There is a gap of reality between us.

#ExistentialismCatFist# Huiyuan's philosophy of death VS Beijie's dramatic life. The winner is immediately judged.

“People die in my movies, too,” Vermouth retorted, sitting up. “And in my experience, real-life plots are much more complicated than novels.”

Bei Jie's death experience... She really has the most say (lights a cigarette)

With a simple move, he achieved a great result. He acknowledged the cruelty of reality, dispelled the heaviness in Huibara's words, and returned to his own rhythm.

She patted the bed beside her and said, "Come and sit down. Tell me about this poison case that fascinated Silver Bullet so much."

From Kudo to the silver bullet (Conan and Akai Shuichi), to the poison case (Haibara's specialty), Vermouth's every topic hits precisely on the point Haibara cares about most, the point she can't avoid. #PatchingBedInvitation# A perilous couchside conversation. Orange's power escalates.

However, this is clearly Huibara's bed, but it is made as if she is the mistress of the room.

Against all reason, Huibara found herself sitting obediently on the edge of the bed. "Why should I share the case with you? As far as I know, you had nothing to do with this."

But actions always speak louder than words. The scientist's rationality completely collapsed. His legs had a mind of their own.

He struggled a little, "Why should I tell you this?" His subtext was, "Give me a reason to convince myself, quick."

"If I were involved, the victim would be found with a bullet in the eyebrow, not some special poison in his system."

Vermouth's smile was cold, but her eyes were blazing. Her ice-fire personality remained unchanged: "Bullets are efficient enough. I won't waste time on complicated methods."

Bayonetta's professional skills are amazing, perfect score. She demonstrates her "professionalism" as a member of the organization, a dark yet powerful charm.

#Aesthetic Declaration of a Professional Killer# She is the only one who flirts with the philosophy of killing.

"That's really reassuring." Huibara replied dryly.

"So, what would your dear Kudo-kun think?"

"Don't be silly," Huibara sneered, "He's just a teenager trapped in a child's body."

Ai-chan's Poisonous Tongue: Accurately strikes with height and intelligence, a double critical hit. Shinichi-kun HP-10086

How to End Conan's Protagonist Halo in One Sentence

"You, too," Vermouth pointed out. "Two brilliant, talented minds squeezed into such a small body. That creates a unique empathy, doesn't it?"

A killer move. Bayonetta, logic max.

"Actually, I've always felt that you shouldn't be an actor, but a screenwriter." Huibara retorted.

"Well then." Vermouth did not respond, but changed the subject and said, "The little detective knows I'm in Tokyo."

The topic flashed. Bei Jie's guerrilla speech technique - raiding intelligence when Huiyuan's defenses are loose.

The main course is here. The previous pull-ups were just appetizers, now let’s get to the heart of the matter.

The title "little detective" is both a recognition of Conan's ability and a bit of contempt that adults have for children.

"Apparently the FBI has discovered you." Huiyuan glanced at her sideways, "Well, it seems you can be careless sometimes."

#Slant Eye Kill# Huiyuan's counterattack. Scientists capture the opponent's flawed moment of pride.

With a provocative feeling of "Huh, you're nothing special," the kitten began to stretch out its claws.

This was Huibara's turn. She'd seize on her opponent's "mistakes" and immediately strike back, hoping to claw her way back. She wasn't one to be trifled with.

"You can be careless sometimes," this sentence is just the right amount of aggressive, expressing dissatisfaction without causing a rift. When masters clash, they stop at the right time.

"Ah, I don't think so. If I didn't want to be seen, I wouldn't have come."

Vermouth leaned against the bed and looked at Huibara: "Or maybe, I want someone to know that I am here."

The word "someone" is so cleverly used. It could refer to the FBI, it could refer to Kudo, and of course, most importantly, it could refer to "you." The multiple meanings of this phrase are endless, leaving you to your own imagination.

The top hunter often appears as the prey; she is not discovered, she deliberately wants to be seen. This chess game is too big.

The posture of leaning on the bed may be deliberately designed to create the golden ratio curve. The peacock's tail-spreading behavior is confirmed.

"Playing games again? This looks a bit dangerous, even for you." Haibara still highly recognized Vermouth's abilities.

"It's a little dangerous." Is this...concern for her? She says, "You're playing games again," but her tone can't hide her worry. Huibara is the ultimate sharp-tongued, soft-hearted person.

Nietzsche quote: When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss says, "Come and play!" (Baijie ver.)

"A life without danger isn't worth living, don't you think? After all, you chose a dangerous life yourself, hiding in plain sight from the Mihua crowd and collaborating with the detective who might expose you."

Accurately points out the essence of Huiyuan's existence. Sister Bei's observation ability is so terrifying.

Translation: We are all dancing on the edge of a knife, so stop pretending, we understand each other best.

An invitation to complicity sugarcoated with philosophy.

Ding Dong, multiple choice question. If Bayonetta and Haibara were trapped in a safe house for 24 hours, which would be exhausted first?

A. Huibara's venomous vocabulary.

B. Bayonetta's bullet.

C. Coffee in the refrigerator.

D. A safe distance between two people.

"That's different. I'm making amends."

Translation: "It has become smaller, but my values ​​have become more positive, and I am diligently working on the antidote."

“Really?” Vermouth’s voice was almost gentle, “Or are you just addicted to adrenaline? The danger of being discovered at any moment, the thrill of outsmarting those around you…”

Here it comes, a woman’s intuition (no), the CPU masterclass of the Thousand Faces actress (yes): “Stop being so stubborn, you’re just like me, you just like to play with your heartbeat.”

"You are just projecting your own psychology." Huibara curled her lips.

Huiyuan: Rebound. You are talking about yourself.

Vermouth smiled, surprisingly sincerely: "Perhaps. Shirley, we are more alike than you are willing to admit."

The atmosphere between them suddenly became tense. Huibara was the first to look away.

But whoever looks away first loses.

The air was filled with an orangey atmosphere, and the intensity of the lesbian love between the two of them soared to the critical point in an instant. The tsundere kid couldn't bear it anymore.

"You'd better go." She said softly, "Conan will probably come back. He feels something is wrong."

Conan, the eternal elementary school student, has become the best shield in the battlefield of love.

"But as his good friend, you still invited me in," Vermouth said, "even though you knew the risks."

Bei Jie: Then why did you open the door? You say no with your mouth, but your body is very honest.

Precision strike. Vermouth, the straight-shooting queen, specializes in dealing with all kinds of duplicity.

"I was distracted for a moment," Huibara replied. "It seems I'm easily influenced by you. Didn't you come all this way here just to make fun of my height?"

This complaint, full of the cute atmosphere of elementary school students quarreling, instantly halved their fighting power.

Annoyed and angry, he started to change the subject: "Are you polite? You come and laugh at me, a man who is only 1.2 meters tall?"

But "a moment of distraction" sounds a lot like "beauty misled me".

Vermouth sighed: "I know you are Shirley. But I am not here to find you on orders, if that's what you want to ask."

She began to explain her behavior. "It's not a business matter, it's a personal matter." — The starting point of all ambiguous relationships.

"Then why?" Huibara asked, really wanting to understand.

Vermouth said lightly: "Because of you, I was reminded of myself a long time ago. Before all this happened."

Top love quotes. "When I see you, I see myself."

"Before everything happened" refers to Sharon Wynyard before she met Karasuma Renya, joined the organization, and became the Thousand Faces Movie Queen... A knife is a knife.

First, she pushes the ambiguity with pulling, then uses the resonance of life experience to close the distance, and finally uses the tragic story to break the heart. Sister Bei is the master of drugging. And the drug she used is the love potion.

The two of them didn't know how to start. The sound of rain hitting the window broke the silence.

It's a rainy day, a day to keep guests. If the sky wants to keep you, why not me? (Bei Jie: I'd rather stay.)

In the dim room, there was cold rain outside the window, and inside, two winery queens were pushing and pulling to the extreme.

"Anyway, you should leave." Huiyuan finally spoke, although her tone was not strong at all: "It's not safe for both of us if you stay."

Subtext: "If Conan brings back Uncle Maori and the FBI, we won't be able to wash ourselves clean even if we jump into Tokyo Bay."

"The word 'safety' is overrated," Vermouth replied, but she still stood up, but did not leave, and casually flipped through the notebook on the table.

Use actions instead of words to tell Huibara "I don't want to leave."

"You're rummaging through my things again." Huibara said dissatisfiedly, and at the same time noticed the small notebook in Vermouth's hand.

That's the research log for APTX4869. It's classified as top secret in Beika Town.

But it had already been opened, so there was no point in getting it back now. Furthermore, Huiyuan secretly felt lucky that the notes on the Key of Logos were locked in the laboratory downstairs.

Although she had considered that she would need Vermouth's "cooperation" in the development of Logos, at this stage, especially when Vermouth's purpose was unclear and she appeared to encounter Mika and herself, it was definitely not a suitable time to let Vermouth know.

"It's a habit."

Vermouth replied confidently, throwing the notebook onto the table next to her. "It's really interesting to read, though. Your comments on the reversal of apoptosis in the APTX-4869 formula are quite... creative."

While invading her privacy, she praised her professional ability. This is the PUA of a top queen.

"Creative" = "She's worthy of being the woman I like, she's got a sharp mind."

"These are all personal belongings." Huibara curled her lips and grabbed the notebook.

The kitten who was protecting his food finally got angry.

"Privacy is such an elusive concept. Especially among old friends."

This statement was made as if they were best friends who shared the same bed. It redefined the concepts of "privacy" and "friends."

"We were never friends."

Haibara: Cut. Cut quickly.

Three consecutive denials: "I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

"No? Then what do you call that night in New York?"

Here we go again, the killer app. New York.

Famous scenes recap. The bond of the New York chapter reappears. #Rooftop Wind, Destiny's Bullet#

Chinese translation: "Baby, have you forgotten our first date?"

Q. Why did Vermouth risk being discovered to come find Haibara today?

A. I came to check on the progress of APTX4869 and to see if Sulli was dead. (The workaholic character remains intact.)

B. Simply wanting to see the "kitten," engage in some adult-style extreme tug-of-war, and enjoy the fun of teasing. (This is a good sign.)

C. I forgot my WiFi password at home, so I came here to use the internet and see what new inventions the doctor has. (After all, Sister Bei has many houses, so she can be a neighbor at any time.)

D. The author forced her to come. If she didn't come, she wouldn't be paid and was threatened with having her scenes cut. (The pain of a migrant worker)

A year ago, a night in New York. A night when the situation was already decided. Those who understand will understand. (A dog's head holds a rose)

Huiyuan felt her cheeks heat up. "Like I said, it was just the alcohol that affected my judgment."

Master Zhong Yizhong: "Ahhh, don't mention it, it's so embarrassing."

"Let's just say that night? I remember you back then... quite certain. Especially you and... that thing..." Sister Bei's laughter at this moment: sweet as a silver bell but poisonous (dangerous and charming.jpg)

Front barrage prediction:

"What is that thing? Tell me more about it."

"Is that what I was thinking about? (Funny)"

"The doors are welded shut. No one can get out of the car."

"Riddler x2. Bayonetta, please explain clearly. (The audience is getting anxious)"

"What? What? (Frantic) Was it peeking, or was it a wall-bang, or...? (Brain overload)"

Chinese translation: "You keep pretending. The way you looked at me at that time was not innocent, little cat Shiho."

"Stop," Huibara interrupted. "You said you had information. What is it?"

A textbook example of forcibly changing the subject.

That "stop" is simply the cry of a loser... no, it's the cry of a tsundere. So cute.

Vermouth's expression instantly changed from joking to serious: "The organization is advancing the second phase of the plan. Gin has been asking about Kudo Shinichi's disappearance. Putting these clues together, you should be worried."

She changes her expression faster than turning the pages of a book – that's the professionalism of Miss Bay. One moment she's flirting, the next she's serving the real thing. Seamless transitions.

Gin's name appeared, and the atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

A ruthless man who can shoot himself and eject Conan's anesthetic needle with a bullet, the KPI of the winery's hardworking model: hunt down the traitor/find Shirley/check Kudo (Gin: It's too hard for me)

Huiyuan felt a chill that had nothing to do with the rain outside. It was Gin's murderous aura that was transmitted through the network (crossed out) organization's intelligence network. "What did he find out?"

Outside the window, Tokyo was raining continuously. The room was dark, with only two figures.

"He already has enough clues, so I came here to warn you, rather than watching from afar in the leisurely life of Southern California across the Pacific." Vermouth replied, a declaration of favoritism like a queen: "He's digging up old cases again, bringing up old... unfinished business."

Chinese translation: "I don't care about the life and death of others, but not you. For you, I am willing to break the rules and fly across the Pacific Ocean to warn you face to face."

"Opening up old cases" - Gin's daily life: A model worker working overtime in the archives room (lighting a cigarette).

"Unfinished business" - refers to Shirley's business? Kudo's business? Or...Betsey's own business? (Orange imagination opens)

"Take me for example." Huibara said calmly.

Beneath this calm lies a turbulent sea. She knows she is the bomb that could explode at any moment.

Ai no self-explosion truck. Underneath the calm tone, there is a burning awareness.

Vermouth nodded and said, "But he still believes that Shirley died in the explosion."

It's not the train arc, it's that after Haibara shrank and escaped, the building where she was imprisoned exploded.

Bei Jie nodded: Confirmed, Gin's IQ tax is still being renewed (funny)

Information lag at the brewery, daily persecution of gin (1/1)

Bei Jie's intelligence network's sense of superiority: Look, I'm the only one who knows your little secret~ (shaking the wine glass proudly)

Huiyuan walked to the window and looked at the rain-soaked street: "Why are you telling me this? What can you gain?"

Here comes the classic question: "What are you trying to achieve?"

Huiyuan's scientist thinking came online and began to calculate the input-output ratio.

Translation: "If someone shows affection for no reason, he's either a traitor or a thief. Tell me, do you want to seduce me?" (doge)

The classic “Why are you so good to me?” is a key point in the development of Orange Power.

She looked out the window at the rain, her small profile appearing fragile yet stubborn in the dim light. Vermouth's gaze was glued to her profile (Tachibana's gaze).

"Perhaps I am a little sentimental." Vermouth walked over to her, their figures overlapping and reflected in the glass. She said, "Or perhaps, for some reason, I want to see the results of your little science experiment."

Beijie's approach. Dangerous distance. Shoulders and knees about to touch. (Tachibana Observer is online, but Conan's character proportions are ruined.)

"Antidote." Huiyuan narrowed her eyes, suddenly realizing, "You want to know if it's possible to reverse the effects of Drug A."

Haibara's expression was one of relief, "I see," but also with a little new wariness.

"Knowledge is power," Vermouth said succinctly, "and I have always been interested in... expanding research on cell regeneration."

Doesn't this hint at the mystery of her own immortality?

Bei Jie's subtext: I'm very interested in your research, and maybe a little bit in you as a person? (Orange Whisper)

Huiyuan turned to face her and said in a cold voice, "You want the antidote."

This is an affirmation, not a question. Ai-chan has already confirmed the other party's superficial intentions. His eyes are super A.

This turn, the aura is fully released. Queen against queen.

Vermouth's smile slowly appeared on her beautiful face: "Some things in this world are not that simple."

A classic Bayesian riddle.

Chinese translation: "I want the antidote, but I don't just want the antidote, I also want..." (The camera turns to Huiyuan, and the background music starts)

Sister Bei’s signature mysterious smile. A dangerous charm that kills people without paying for their lives.

Probably: I want the antidote, but little kitty, don’t even think about running away~ hehehe~ (Orange Chain Preparation)

Sister Bei's thousand-layer routine is bottomless.

Passive skill: Riddler LV.max (cannot be removed)

However, Huibara knew that the medicine that Vermouth used to maintain her youthful appearance was not the same as APTX4869.

That was a medicine that had been used for many years before Miyano Shiho took over her parents' research.

So, Bei Jie's real purpose: to use Ai's research to infer her own elixir of immortality? Or... a combination of the two? (The thought is terrifying)

Bei Jie's medicine is the first generation machine, Ai's is the optimized version (?) The legacy of the Miyano family...

In the dim little Mihua bedroom, the rain hits the window, and the silhouettes of the two people are still by the window, close yet distant.

Q: What is Bayonetta's core motivation for taking the risk to warn Haibara?

A. True sentimentality (Xiaolan’s influence remains?)

B. APTX4869 antidote technology (Science power.)

C. I want to see more of the nervous little cat (桔の魅力.)

D. All of the above (I want all of Sister Bei's tricks.)

Tip: The possibility of D, micro deposit?
