Seeing that he was awake, she even smiled and greeted him.
Yoruichi Toyama slowly sat up, but accidentally bumped into some injury and almost fell back onto the bed in pain.
Then I noticed that I had changed into soft loungewear, with faint traces of bandages and medicated oil underneath.
What is this all about?
After slapping someone, do you then stroke their fur?
Absinthe, however, simply approached him with a smile.
"Would you like coffee?" she asked. "I don't know how to make black tea."
Yuanshan Ye nodded subconsciously, and only after watching her turn around and walk into the small kitchen to boil water did she feel a little strange.
"You're not even handcuffing me? Am I going to run away?" he asked tentatively.
Absinthe didn't even turn his head, seemingly engrossed in fiddling with the coffee pot.
"Run, let's see if you can hide forever."
Yoruichi Toyama was struggling to stand up when she heard this and felt a sharp pain in her ribs, as if she had been stun-gunned again.
What exactly do you want?
"You wanted to kidnap Akemi before, just to blackmail me into doing something, right?"
When the word "kidnapping" was mentioned, Vermouth's back seemed to freeze for a moment, and the bone china coffee cup in her hand shattered into pieces with a "crack".
However, her voice returned to normal after she threw away the innocent coffee cup.
"Speaking of which, I'm curious to know, how do you plan to explain to the police that you asked them to protect that girl from the Miyano family?"
Yoruichi Toyama thought about it for a moment.
"Just say her mother owes money to loan sharks, and they've come to her to collect the debt?"
Vermouth shrugged twice, as if she was amused by her own anger.
But when she turned around with her coffee, she actually had a smile on her face.
Perhaps she was pleased because Yoruichi Toyama kept bringing up Elena Miyano without any restraint.
"Don't you have anything you're afraid of?"
Yuanshan Ye nodded, picked up a cup of coffee, and gulped it down.
The scalding hot coffee went straight down his throat, almost bringing tears to his eyes, but it also replenished some of his lost energy.
“Of course I’m scared,” he said. “The thought of you doing something to Mingmei terrifies me.”
So afraid that she couldn't think straight, and didn't even have time to discuss it with Akechi or Amuro Tooru.
But now...
They probably already know...
"So I've come to see you myself. Just tell me what you want me to do."
Yoruichi Toyama put down her empty cup and said earnestly.
Vermouth stared at him, a look of confusion and amusement gradually appearing in her eyes.
"What kind of magic does the Miyano family's girl possess that makes you all so devoted to her?" she said.
"Huh? Who?"
Yoruichi Toyama didn't react for a moment.
She wondered how Gao Yuan and Xiao Ai were so close.
“That puppeteer,” Vermouth said, as expected, “guess why he rejected me?”
"Rejected you? You wanted him to marry into your family?"
Yoruichi Toyama's eyes widened.
That won't do, Auntie. Aren't you older than Reiko Chikamiya?
Upon receiving Vermouth's murderous gaze, especially seeing the fist that was already slightly raised, he instinctively shrank back and stopped his rant.
"...No, your organization wants to recruit him? Then why isn't he willing?"
"You should know that he and Sherry, who betrayed the organization and is the second daughter of the Miyano family, went on the run together for a period of time?"
Faced with Vermouth's somewhat probing question, Yoruichi Toyama calmly nodded.
"The biological laboratory at West East Medical University? When Inspector Akechi and I arrived, they had already escaped."
"So, you know where Shiho is?"
As her brother-in-law, Yoruichi Toyama asked with great concern.
Vermouth sneered.
"She died, and Gin did it himself."
"What's wrong? That look on your face... do you not believe me, or...?"
Yoruichi Toyama suddenly jumped out of bed and grabbed her hand.
"You mean Shiho, Akemi's sister, she..."
Vermouth's smile was tinged with schadenfreude and malice.
"She's dead," she repeated slowly, shaking off Yoruichi Toyama.
"I knew you men were possessed by some evil spirit. That puppeteer took poison because of this."
"For that cold-blooded girl who doesn't even know what emotions are!"
"And you, you are too."
"Akami Miyano is currently under police protection."
"She clearly knows your situation, doesn't she?"
Why can't I do something for you?
"Or are they satisfied with seeing men die for them?"
Yuanshan Ye opened her mouth as if to refute, but said nothing.
Vermouth smiled and handed him a cell phone.
"Do you want to know? Do you want to ask her what she will do?"
"Call her."
"Just tell her... well, you want to break up with her."
"I'm really looking forward to hearing her answer."
A wicked smile gleamed in the witch's eyes.
