Chapter 278 Xiaokui: Hehe, I successfully tricked Jingguang and the others into giving me a shield.



The two of them walked out of Tokyo Tower in such a swagger. Even when they saw the strange yet familiar figure through the windshield, Hoshino Aoi waved to 'Amemiya Hikaru' who was sitting inside, signaling them to leave.

This attitude, not to mention Ireland beside her, even the person she greeted was stunned.

However, after being stunned for a moment, Zhu Fu Jingguang did not call them to stop. He just silently flashed the headlights twice, indicating that she should remember to call him when she got back and explain her behavior.

Hoshino Aoi didn't take it seriously, and just walked away while waving at him to show that she understood. Ireland, on the other hand, raised an eyebrow silently, and only after they were far away did she confirm to Hoshino Aoi:

"That was Scotland in that car? He just watched us go?"

He originally thought that the public security police should come to arrest him. Of course, their purpose was definitely not to arrest him, but to arrest the gangster who kidnapped Matsumoto Kiyonaga for unknown reasons.

But it is undeniable that before Vermouth arrived, he was the biggest target after disguising himself as Matsumoto Kiyonaga, so it is not wrong to say that the public security police came to catch him.

But as someone who could command those people, the other party just let them go. How could Ireland not be surprised?

On the contrary, Hoshino Aoi looked calm.

"So, as I've said before, our situation is not as bad as you think. Scotland still trusts me, and he will also give a certain amount of trust to people I think he can trust."

Although this trust only came from belief in her, it was enough for Ireland.

“It’s definitely better than I thought.”

He pursed his lips and whispered.

Just as he finished speaking, a huge buzzing sound came from above their heads. Ireland was about to look up in the direction of the sound when he was grabbed by Aoi Hoshino who suddenly quickened her pace.

The two of them hurried to a shadowy corner. Seeing that there was no one around and it was difficult to see them from above, Aoi Hoshino loosened her hand that was holding Ireland's sleeve, raised her head quietly, and looked at the helicopter hanging in the air.

"Gin is here."

She whispered:

"I wonder if he would still be so decisive in shooting after he found out that the person on the tower was Vermouth..."

But probably not...

After all, the current developments are very different from the original plot.

Although it seems that someone kidnapped Matsumoto Kiyonaga, disguised himself as him, and sneaked into the Metropolitan Police Department. After the police investigated the case, he led everyone to the Tokyo Tower. Then, when everyone was heading towards the tower, he took advantage of the darkness and attacked a group of policemen. After that, he also fought with Edogawa Conan and finally got the memory chip.

But when it comes to details—

The Matsumoto Kiyonaga on the tower is Vermouth in disguise.

Moreover, the reason why Gin shot Ireland was that Ireland's actions had been exposed and he had been surrounded by the police and could not escape.

But now with the intervention of the National Police Department, at least on the surface, there are not many police cars surrounding the tower, so his original reason is naturally no longer applicable.

What’s more, the other party is Vermouth.

Let’s not talk about whether Gin will kill Vermouth from his perspective. Anyway, with the world consciousness, it is impossible for him to watch the plot go astray and let the people who should have been alive die.

Just like it couldn't just watch someone who was supposed to be dead live.

And the development of events was exactly as she expected.

Gin didn't shoot.

As for whether Vermouth actually took off the disguise mask and how she explained it to Gin and that gentleman afterwards, that is none of Hoshino Aoi’s business.

She took Ireland directly to the apartment she had secretly rented without telling anyone.

It wasn't until she took out the disguise props that Ireland realized that she had no intention of handing herself over to the police.

"I thought you would send me directly to the police station..."

Ireland was a little surprised, and the corners of his eyes unconsciously raised, but his body was very obedient. Even though he didn't understand her intention, he still followed her wishes and sat down in front of the dressing table, allowing her to apply makeup on his face.

As for her own purpose, since she had already fooled the person, Aoi Hoshino naturally would not hide it anymore and said directly:

"There's no rush for that kind of thing. After all, as you said, although we don't know what Vermouth will report when she returns, there are only a few possibilities. By then, the organization will definitely be finishing up, and the intelligence you know will most likely be invalid. In that case, it's better not to report to the National Police Agency yet."

This also saves people from being imprisoned by the police like Pisco.

Well, in police terms, maybe that should be called protection?

However, Hoshino Aoi feels that if given a choice, Ireland would not want that kind of 'protection'.

As for another possibility...

For example, Ireland actually wants to be protected by the Metropolitan Police Department. Of course, it would be even better if he and Pisco could be in the same protection circle...
