Vermouth and Sherry

One year ago, New York, a snow-covered maze city, seemed to be the end of the world. That night, 18-year-old Shiho met a blonde, blue-eyed woman with a captivating smile, like a fatally beautiful r...

Chapter 46: Tell the truth, someone has come to the intelligence network and escaped the net...

"No one has been here. I'm just trying out a new perfume. Even if there is, it's my personal friend and has nothing to do with you." Huibara said, looking at him coldly.

This "cold gaze" is Miyano Shiho's soul penetrating Haibara Ai's body and directly challenging Akai.

Her stubbornness is her last bit of stubbornness.

"No one" is a lie, "is my friend" is the truth of the future (or the truth that is happening), and "has nothing to do with you" is the line she draws.

One sentence has three levels, which progress layer by layer, and the queen's aura is fully displayed.

Bei Jie's cabinet OS: Friend? I'll let you change the words tonight (licking lips) #dangerouspossessiveness#

Haibara speaks much colder to Akai Shuichi than to Conan.

Thermometer measurement: For Conan = Hokkaido's first snow, for Akai = Siberian permafrost. #温度差の物理#

Because Conan is "one of us" and a "common victim", while Shuichi Akai carries too much of a complicated past - the death of his sister, the intervention of the FBI, and the current situation of being under surveillance.

This layer of coldness is her armor.

To put it bluntly, Conan and she are in the same trench. Although Akai is also fighting the same boss, he is a friendly force in the next battle zone. They have different starting points and report to different bosses, so one must be on guard against others.

Of course, once she learns that her biological aunt, Akai Mary, has also shrunk, and that one of Akai Shuichi's motivations is to help his mother grow, things might turn out differently. (The TV version could be slapped with another 1,000 episodes. Aoyama's plan works.)

Moreover, she was cold to Akai because Akai was in charge of her and she felt uncomfortable being lectured by the head of the family.

Akai's special feature: the only man who can make Ai-chan activate the "brewery sequelae defense mode". #Allergen detection report#

Beijie's thermal imaging: Very good, it only warms me (the temperature inside the cabinet soars) #Temperature difference is true love#

"You don't have any friends who use Chanel No. 5." Akai ignored the first half of her lie and directly commented on the second half about friends.

Precision strikes. Killing people and destroying their hearts.

Akai Shuichi was heartless and directly denied Huibara's social circle, implying: "Stop pretending. Don't I know what your situation is? You are just a lonely child."

This statement is so devastating because it is true to a certain extent. You can't say that the real elementary school student Ayumi is using Chanel No. 5.

Aka-sensei's ultimate strike. A precise strike comparable to a sniper's trajectory calculation. #liecrusher#

Haibara Ai's circle of friends is indeed very small, and their styles have nothing to do with Chanel No. 5. Akai is using facts to force her to admit it.

Bayonetta in the closet: Excuse me? I'm not a human? Oh, I'm not a human, I'm a fairy. (I started imagining Bayonetta rolling her eyes in there)

"Maybe I'm expanding my social circle."

A beautiful comeback. Well done. This sentence is full of infinite imagination.

Yes, she was expanding her social circle, and the level of her new friends was so high that Subaru Okiya could not imagine.

This statement is both provocative and true. If there is a relationship between Miyano Shiho and Vermouth, it is indeed a new, dangerous relationship that is not understood by the world.

This sentence was said to Akai and also to someone in the closet.

Top 1 Cold Joke of the Year: Sulli's social circle expansion = hiding the organization's top killer in the closet. #HardcoreSocial#

Translation: I'm developing high-risk connections, and the target is the beautiful woman in the winery who might want to kill me (proud chest out) #Stockholm's Advanced Tutorial#

"Mr. Okiya is a rare visitor in my social circle," Huibara lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, "It's always very quiet here." Her voice sounded very calm, with a hint of impatience in her voice as if to expel him.

Everything that had happened today flashed through her mind like a montage movie gone haywire. The shadow of the organization, Vermouth's unexpected "cooperation," and now, Akai Shuichi's uninvited "concern." She felt like a test specimen thrown into a giant centrifuge, rapidly being torn apart from reality.

She almost blurted out, how nice it would be if all this was just a projection of the virtual world, a game where you could press the "exit" button at any time.

Okiya Subaru's expression became a little more serious: "This is not a game."

He smelled danger. This was no longer a child's game, but real playing with fire.

Well, the dad vibe is kicking in. While well-intentioned, this kind of condescending warning will only stir up a rebellious reaction in adolescent girls.

Red warning. However, the sister in the closet was having fun playing with the golden hair (?) #Serious feeling of dislocation#

The classic flag has been set. Usually after saying "this is not a game", the protagonist will play a bigger game (looking at the cabinet door) #预测家の视视#

"Isn't it?"

Huibara stood up and said coldly, "Everything we do, the disguises, the half-truths, the strategic plans, isn't it just a carefully designed chess game? You make your move, they make theirs, and I, I just try not to be sacrificed as a pawn."

She is no longer passively defensive but actively offensive, elevating the conversation to a philosophical level. This is her most precise and brutal summary of her own existence.

From Miyano Shiho to Shirley to Haibara Ai, she has always been a chess piece on the chessboard, being manipulated by various forces. Before she formulated her revenge plan, her only wish was "not to be sacrificed."

Sartre: Hell is other people. Haibara Ai: Other people are chess players.

Using a postmodern deconstructionist perspective, all the self-proclaimed "justice" and "evil" are reduced to "pieces" on the chessboard.

Existentialist chess game vs. Lily Redemption - when the chess piece refuses to be defined, the chessboard will tilt in her favor.

Bei Jie's cabinet comment: My dear chess piece? No, you are my queen (chess stalk big victory) #topの撩#

During this tense confrontation, what was Vermouth most likely thinking while hiding in the closet?

A. "My little Sulli is amazing! Great job! Give her more." (Mom fan mentality)

B. "What's wrong with the FBI? They have such a keen nose. They should switch to unscented lipstick next time." (Technical review but with the wrong focus)

C. "Is he discovered? Should I leave?" (A little worried)

D. "These two are going back and forth... Why does it smell a bit sour? Ha, men." (The composure of the first wife)

Facing Subaru Okiya, Haibara, who has a top talent for making sarcastic remarks when she appears on the scene, actually wants to make sarcastic remarks about his FBI, which is currently being purged of its undercover agents because the insurance company leaked a list of names.

However, the girl, who had an IQ of 180, always thought twice before acting. She changed her mind and thought that Vermouth told her this because she trusted her, so she held back.

She had the ultimate piece of information that could have turned the tables on Akai, or even silenced him, but she didn't use it. Why? Because Vermouth had given her this information "because she trusted her."

In their relationship, "trust" is more precious than diamonds.

For this hard-earned trust, Huiyuan would rather continue to be at a disadvantage in the verbal battle. #Forbearance for Love##Secrecy is the highest level of romance#

Vermouth gave her a secret, and then she kept it in front of Akai Shuichi. But in just a few hours, a bond had been established between them. #Trust is the highest level of flirting#

But, if you think about it more carefully, Masaka, this is actually Sister Bei's trust trap, using intelligence to weave a net, letting the prey take the bait voluntarily, and even helping to close the net. #钓系の神#

Subaru Okiya sighed, "Playing chess requires rules. And you and I both know very well that those people don't follow the rules."

Translation: "We in the FBI always have a legitimate reason for doing things. Those guys from the winery across the street are crazy."

Chi's classic riddle. Speaking of which: The organization is cheating and has no moral principles.

Xiuyi: I am a man who follows the rules (driving at 700 mph, illegally carrying a gun in a foreign country, and forging an identity to sneak into other people's homes).

"You don't follow the rules either." Huiyuan retorted, "If necessary, I can do it too."

Ai-chan is so tough. As expected of someone who had an affair with a female cadre in the organization (?), she now has the confidence to speak with such confidence.

"You don't follow the rules either", the subtext is: You, a dead person, pretend to be my neighbor next door, so let's not say anything to each other.

"I can do it if necessary", the subtext is: for the woman in my closet, I can go crazy at any time.

Ai-chan A went up. Small body, big rebellious bones.

How to Act Tough in Front of the FBI Ace: I'm Super Fierce.jpg

At the kitchen island, between the two of them, there were unspoken questions.

One was thinking: This little girl is not right, is there a wild man from the organization hiding in her house? It can't be a Gin Bar? (Akai Shu has always been a male thinker, and the CP is completely wrong)

The other one was thinking: It’s over, it’s over, the wild woman hiding in my house is about to be discovered by her enemies.

Finally, Akai sighed again.

Akai: It's exhausting. Raising a child is hard. Raising a child with secrets like this is even harder.

The air was filled with unspeakable secrets, as dense as Gin's murderous intent.

"Aijun, is there anything you want to talk about?"

Straightforward interrogation, as expected of you, Aka·Topic Terminator·Xuichi.

Subtext: "Confess and be lenient; resist and be strict. My big, KISS ME eyes have long seen through your little tricks."

How to Ask the Least Questions in a Room Full of Secrets

Yes, Huiyuan thought, a wave of comments whizzing through her mind: "In my kitchen closet, there is a limited edition figurine (Vermouth version), aka the organization's high-level assassin, and she may be the only person in this world who can understand me a little bit. Moreover, I think she and I may have a two-way emotional entanglement, at least there has been a sexual entanglement. No matter how you analyze it logically from any objective perspective, this is simply crazy. And you are actually an FBI agent who has died in the file. If the two of you meet, someone will definitely die, and that person may very well be me, becoming the innocent victim of Beika Town today - because of too much pressure, I collapsed."

How to Summarize a 50-Episode Spy Drama in Three Sentences

At this moment, she really wanted to shut down her IQ of 180 and enjoy the feeling of letting the conversation pass through her suddenly smooth cerebral cortex. She was really tired and didn't want to continue the battle of wits and courage.

Multiple choice question: What does Huibara need most at this moment?

A. Quick-acting heart pills B. Time machine C. Join the organization and destroy the world on the spot D. Stay in the closet with Bayonetta and calm down.

"No." She waited for the wave of complaints in her mind to calm down, then said lightly, "I'm just tired."

The calmer her expression, the more chaotic Haibara's heart is.

It’s comparable to Conan’s classic answer when Xiaolan asked him “Are you Shinichi?”: “No, you think too much.”

Translation: I am tired mentally and physically, and the person in the closet makes me even more tired mentally and physically.

"Tired": The universal excuse of contemporary young people (forced into international spy wars).

Subaru Okiya was very quiet, but it was a kind of patient quietness, not calmness.

Subaru-style silence = I'm thinking about which way to expose you would be more polite.

Subaru Okiya pushed his glasses, and a white light flashed on the lenses. In the world of science, this means "I see through everything."

Aka-sensei's Radar: Beep, beep. There's something evil in this room. (Points to the closet)

Haibara thought about it carefully again, maybe Vermouth would not kill Akai Shuichi so easily.

Bei Jie: Kill Akai? That would be boring. Of course I have to keep him for fun (teasing).

Because Gin is afraid of Akai. If Vermouth captures Akai, it will become a good control for Gin.

The Organization's Palace Drama: Using Silver Bullets to Counterbalance Vodka Lovers

But, in just a few hours, Ai-chan was already thinking about how to control Gin for Bei Jie?

Sister Bei: Thanks for the invitation, tool man +1, but this time it was Ai-chan who offered it on her own initiative, nice.

Just because they are not killed on the spot does not mean they cannot be captured alive.

If Vermouth caught Shuichi Akai and asked him to reveal FBI secrets, I wonder what means she would use.

The blind student discovered the brilliant point. The torture method...

In short, Haibara decided that no matter what, Vermouth and Akai must not meet.

Kings are forbidden to meet kings. Ai-chan's Shura Field Protection Plan has been activated.

How to Prevent World War III in Your Kitchen (Organization & FBI Edition)

And he wanted to make Vermouth feel that he was protecting her.

Haibara's love brain (crossed out) and strategic brain started working at high speed.

"I'm not afraid of you two fighting. I'm afraid you'll dirty your hands for me." What a beautiful love line.

Regarding the fact that my girlfriend and my bodyguard are sworn enemies, how can I PUA my girlfriend and make her think that I am doing this for her own good?

High. Really high. PUA Master Ai is online.

Sister Bei: She has me in her heart. She's afraid I'll get hurt. (Self-strategy completion +50%)

On the Top Pull of Tsundere Scientists: Captivity of Love in the Name of Protection

Seeing that she really didn't want to talk, Akai went to the sink and rinsed the cup. This simple act of courtesy brought him only a few feet away from the closet door.

Huibara's heart began to beat violently.

A wall separates two worlds. Outside the wall is the FBI's probing, inside the wall is the breath of a beautiful female killer (?)

At this time, Sister Bei in the closet said: Haha, interesting.

Huihara’s inner thoughts: Save… my life… let’s destroy this crappy organization. I’m tired.

The kitchen was quiet, without a sound.

Haibara: Please, my closet girlfriend, please use your Oscar-winning skills. Stay put. We can win. Promise me you'll be a quiet, beautiful closet, okay?

Sister Bei's skill point: Top stealth technique: Shadow of the closet.

On the Self-cultivation of a Film Queen: Cosplaying Still Life in a Small Space

You can always trust the professionalism of a versatile actress. Forget holding your breath; she probably even muted her heartbeat.

Multiple choice question: What could Bayley be doing in the closet?

A. Touch up your makeup elegantlyB. Eavesdrop and smilesC. Plan how to make a dazzling entrance and scare Akai to deathD. Think about how to tease Haibara tonight.

The absurdity and charm of the scientific world are at their peak. Ai-chan repeatedly teeters on the brink of exposure and social demise.

In this game of chess, every move is on the edge of a cliff.

Watching Akai Shuichi washing cups, Huihara felt exhausted. Everything that had happened today, the information overload and emotional exhaustion, had left her brain like a computer on the verge of death. She suddenly had a strong desire to "shut down," to escape briefly from this chaotic world.

What if...what if all this was just a dream?

Absurd thoughts emerged from the depths of her tired consciousness like bubbles.

Her consciousness seemed to have been pulled out of her body and floated to the ceiling, looking down at herself and the man opposite her with indifference.

In the past, she focused all her attention on "misfortune" - the death of her sister, the organization's pursuit, and the endless darkness. As a result, the world revealed its most hideous and cruel side to her.

But recently, when she tried to shift her focus and pay more attention to the warm things around her... such as the temperature of a cup of hot cocoa, the doctor's clumsy care, the noise of the Junior Detective Team... she found that life became a little happier.

The so-called world may be a drama performed in one's own brain, a simulated theater built by consciousness.

Her thoughts drifted aimlessly and time lost its scale.

There was silence for more than a minute.

In the restaurant, the only sound that could be heard was the lonely "clicking" of the second hand of the brass clock.

After washing the cup, Shuichi Akai did not urge her, but just looked at her quietly. Perhaps it was the gentleness of a cousin.

Finally, Huibara's eyelashes trembled, and her ice-blue eyes refocused, reflecting his figure.

Huibara's heart sank slightly, but she maintained a poker face and added lightly, "Sorry, I was distracted. I recently watched a documentary about the Middle Ages, and suddenly I felt a little dazed."

He didn't ask further. He simply wiped his hands lightly and said in a chatty tone, "The Middle Ages... If you could go back to that era, what would you do?"

Huibara was stunned for a moment, then said frankly, "An alchemist. Trying to turn lead into gold... or, turn chaos into order."

For some reason, she felt that she could trust Akai Shuichi a little bit, and could confide in him a little. Now, she didn't know that this was the bond of blood.

"Okiya-san, do you believe that this world really exists?"

He raised his eyebrows, as if she had suddenly changed the script, so he didn't know how to respond for a moment.

"What does Aijun mean?"

"So much happened today," she whispered, more like to herself, "sometimes I wonder how nice it would be if all this was just a dream."

"What kind of dream?" Akai asked, with a rare hint of curiosity in his tone.

"The world is like a giant program," she began slowly, trying to use a common metaphor without revealing her research on logos. "We are like characters in a game. Only when we reach a specific map will the corresponding details be loaded."

Akai raised an eyebrow. This theory was unexpected to him for a moment.

"The world will show you where you focus your attention. I used to think I was unfortunate, and as a result, my life was filled with misfortunes. Recently, I started to focus on the positive side of life, and strange things happened. Everything seems to be getting better."

"Sounds like some kind of self-suggestion." Akagi thought for a moment and commented, while glancing calmly towards the kitchen.

"Maybe." Huiyuan smiled slightly. "It's like when you play a game. If you focus on a certain task, that task will become clear. But the parts you ignore, especially the side plots you haven't opened, will never load."

"Well, I understand. Sometimes I feel like I'm in some unstable version of a character, where my breathing and heartbeat are being calculated by an invisible hand." Subaru Okiya thought for a moment and said.

"Let's say, Haibara-kun, you're a brilliant individual, and that makes you... valuable, especially to certain people, those who might approach you under false pretenses."

Subaru Okiya stood in the kitchen against the light, squinting his eyes and opening them a crack. A white light flashed through the lenses, and the background music instantly became tense.

After all the talk, they still came back to the organization. It seemed that he didn't want to discuss too many philosophical issues with Haibara.

To Haibara: "Valuable" = The organization still wants to capture you and bring you back to 007. "Certain people" = Vermouth. "False excuse" = "Oh, I really like you, little genius~" (Those who understand will understand)

She suddenly became nervous: "What do you want to say?"

Huiyuan's inner thoughts: It's over, it's over, Sister Bei is still eavesdropping in the closet ah ah ah——. (Pupil earthquake.gif)

"My sworn enemy is in my house and my cousin is hinting that she's dangerous" (The title is too long.)

If Shuichi Akai had made his words clearer, Vermouth would definitely have known that his identity as Subaru Okiya was a disguise.

Haibara now has to hide it from both sides. On the one hand, she has to talk to Subaru Okiya and ask him to leave as soon as possible, and on the other hand, she has to make sure that what he says does not sound too much like Shuichi Akai.

"I'm saying that if someone you knew in your past, someone dangerous, contacts you, you can trust me to help. No questions asked. No judgment. Just...protect you."

But to Huiyuan, it sounded like a Chinese-Chinese translation plus version: "Break up with that woman quickly, I will support you (bushi)"

“No questions asked” = Subtext: I’ve guessed it all, you’d better tell the truth.

“No judgment” = Subtext: But I would mentally give your girlfriend a -10086.

"Just...protection" =​​Subtext: physical elimination, professional counterpart.

Isn't this the legendary leeway of the queen? However, it seems that the script that Xiuyi got is from his wife's family.

And what about "no questions asked"? Doesn't the FBI have a guilty conscience?

Haibara's mind raced. Why did he keep bringing up the topic of his former organization members? Could it be that Akai Shuichi, while undercover in the organization, had heard some gossip about Vermouth and her time in New York?

Grass (a kind of plant), it turns out that the organization’s tea room is too well-informed.

Shocking! Silver Bullet Becomes a Transit Station for Organizational Gossip (UC Body Launch)

Huiyuan's brainwave: Could it be that the hug in the heavy snow in New York was captured by a surveillance camera?

Bei Jie's Walls Have Ears: Oh, man, you know nothing about power (sneer + light a cigarette.jpg)

Huiyuan frowned, thinking it was unlikely. Perhaps he was just feeling guilty.

He frowned and realized that things were not simple. (Classic science shot)

The flag has been recovered. Huiyuan's accurate prediction: Akai's intelligence network loses to Beijie's stealth skills (thumbs up)

Frowning Huihara: After all, it’s not so easy to dig out the secrets of a Hollywood beauty, unless... (looking towards the kitchen) that person personally reveals the information?

She knew that Akai's words about protecting her were sincere. Beneath his disguise, Akai Shuichi offered her shelter, safety, and a way out of her predicament.

Here it comes, classic choice between two.

The left hand is the "family card" (aka the light of righteousness, the golden rice bowl of the FBI), which seems safe but is restrictive.

On the right hand is the "Love Card" (aka the mysterious bad woman, the walking hormone), which is dangerous and deadly but full of extreme temptation.

Huiyuan's reading comprehension score is perfect: My cousin's love is as heavy as a mountain (but there's an even heavier mountain of gold in the kitchen.)

The truth is: Cousin, your ex-girlfriend (Judy)'s father's murderer is currently courting your cousin. (Information explosion)

In order to ensure the smooth flow of information for the Red Team, one route Huiyuan can choose is to betray the woman who is currently hiding three feet away.

三脚の死距. 灰原の选: Cousin or wife?

"You're very kind," she said calmly and expressionlessly, "but it's unnecessary. My past is over."

To protect the woman three feet away, she rejected the offer from the world's most powerful investigator. What kind of fairy tale love is this?

Bei Jie, who is hiding in the dark (her moist lips curled up crazily) (inner OS): Good girl~ It’s worth my love for you~

"Really?" He looked at her face, searching for cracks in her icy composure. "Because sometimes the past finds us. Sometimes it walks right into our house and asks us for tea."

Shuichi, you are so sarcastic.

"I want tea" confirmed. Sister Bei's tea art class has already started. (laughing like a goose)

"I think you should go," she whispered.

Eviction order. Ai-chan started to kick people out in order to protect his wife (sure). This time, the kitten showed its claws.

Akai: (heartbroken voice)

Huiyuan's Eviction Order: Please leave quickly. My wife is going to get mad if we keep talking. (Crazy hint)

Bei Jie's like: Good girl~ (shake the red wine)

Now that things have been said, if he stays any longer, it would be too shameless. After all, Shuichi Akai has been a handsome guy since he was a child, and he has been spoiled by his fans. He has never done such a thing as staying at a girl's house.

Subaru Okiya nodded, then glanced at his watch. "I should go. I have a meeting with Judy-san in an hour."

Oh no. Here comes the killer move. He starts mentioning his ex.

Subaru Okiya: Okay, since you drove me away for your woman, I'll just mention my ex-girlfriend. Then we'll be even and no one will laugh at each other.

Teacher Judy: A-choo. Who's talking about me behind my back? (Inside the FBI office)

Akai Shuichi, the master of balancing things, has his hands full, juggling protecting his cousin, meeting his ex, and being Subaru Okiya's neighbor. He's a master of time management.

Huiyuan's Gossip Radar: Beep beep beep~ Ex-girlfriend's name appears. (Ears perked up)

A natural urge to complain welled up in her heart: calling her Judy-san was very professional, but it seemed like she was also Akai's ex-girlfriend.

Huiyuan: Could you please not bring all the love, hate, and vendettas within the FBI to a mere elementary school student? (side-eyes)

Sad Inner Theater: The Biggest Gossip of the Year. Unforgettable FBI Begins. (Moving a Small Stool)

"About the weird neighbor next door who was trying to find out about my hiding of people while trying to uncover his love history" (Time Management Master)

Yes, long before leaving the organization, Haibara used public resources for personal gain and investigated Akai Shuichi's situation in detail.

She even knew that Akai chose to break up with Judy in order to go undercover in the Black Organization, but Judy still had feelings for Shuichi.

Shirley: I slacked off at work, the lab machine took half an hour to run the centrifuge, and I got paid to eat melons.

So Shirley is the world's number one intelligence master and spectator in the science world.

After all, the organization's resources are well-used. Shirley-chan's gossipy spirit is burning brightly. (Well done!)

Huiyuan's hidden skill: the world's top intelligence network, mainly used for eating melons (tears of the organization)

When Judy found out about this, her desire to gossip was overwhelmed, but unfortunately there was no one to gossip with her.

She was doing experiments alone in the organization, and it was so difficult for her to find the organization even if she wanted to eat a melon.

But even with the help of the organization's intelligence network, Miyano Shiho still couldn't find out the background of Shuichi Akai, aka Akai was her cousin.

Due to the lack of scientific information, the gears of fate began to turn (and emit merciless ridicule).

Shirley spent a long time looking up information and eating melons, but she still didn't realize that she was the little melon in the center of the melon field.

73 old thief's bad taste. The setting of the information gap barrier of the Akai family is really, every time I see it, I want to laugh. What a family ethics drama, more exciting than the eight o'clock drama.

Dream of the Red Chamber.

The fish that slipped through the intelligence network: It turns out that my cousin is actually by my side. (Approaching Science BGM)

Bei Jie's taunt is loading: Kitty, you are not as good as me at looking up gossip~ (shaking fingers)

Q: Who is most to blame for not realizing that Haibara is Akai's cousin?

A. Karasuma Renya (Guardian of Family Secrets)

B. Aunt Mary (Special Agent Counter-Reconnaissance Max)

C. Akai himself (pretending to be cool is always with me)

D. Gosho Aoyama (The script writer said: It's not the right time.)

At this moment, what is Vermouth, who is "hiding three feet away", most likely doing?

A. He pulled out his beloved little pistol, and the crosshairs kept bouncing across the back of Subaru Okiya's head.

B. took out his latest mobile phone and recorded this precious video of "my cousin trying to separate us", planning to use it to tease the kitten later.

C. She took out her makeup mirror and elegantly checked her lipstick. After all, she still needed some time alone with the kitten after the annoying person left.

D. took out the Darjeeling tea he had prepared in advance and thought to himself, "Once this FBI agent leaves, I'll go in and make a cup for my little Shirley to warm her up."
