Chapter 79 Skills
Vermouth drove to the suburbs with Hatori Yuiichi.
She stopped by the roadside and said, "This stretch of road is often used by speed racers. Come and try it." She drove a Mercedes-Benz G-Class today specifically just to be able to fit Yu Niao's long legs.
Hatori Yui looked at the serpentine mountain road, feeling a little nervous. "I have a driver's license, but I haven't driven since I took the test. I'm afraid I can't handle a road like this."
Vermouth patted his shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't be afraid. The most important thing about racing is not to be afraid of death."
Hatori Yui:......
"Just kidding." Vermouth got out of the driver's seat. "You drive first. I'll remind you from the side."
Hatori Yui pursed his lips and obediently sat in the driver's seat.
Next, a clash of ideas began in the car: speed first and safety first.
"Why are you slowing down? Increase your speed!"
"No! There's a sharp bend ahead!"
"It's not time to slow down yet, and this speed is passable!"
"No! It's too dangerous!"
"Press the brakes to the floor and steer to drift over."
"Why drift when you can pass peacefully?"
“…”
After learning for half an hour, Vermouth finally gave up. She held her forehead and said, "Forget it. You're not cut out for racing."
Hatori Yuiichi also breathed a sigh of relief. Under Vermouth's guidance, he almost forgot how to drive.
Vermouth said: "Keep driving forward, we're going to the next place."
Hatori Yui's back was covered in sweat. He lowered the window and continued driving forward.

Edogawa Conan squatted on the ground picking up dead branches. He already had a small bundle in his arms. He muttered to himself, "How much do I have to pick up to be enough?"
"Of course the more the better," Yoshida Ayumi said without looking up. "We're going to make a big meal today, so we need a lot of dry branches."
The corners of Edogawa Conan's mouth twitched. So why go out to eat curry in the wild? How long would it take to cook such a big pot?
"Besides, there's a lot of barbecue!" Kojima Genta swallowed his saliva, "I love BBQ the best!"
Edogawa Conan showed his half-moon eyes: Is there anything you don’t like?
Mitsuhiko Tsuburaya said, "We didn't expect there would be a place to camp right next to this road, and there's even a water source. We're so lucky. Don't you think so, Haibara-san?"
"If you mean we had a flat tire and had to stop in the middle of the road, and we waited for ages and no one passed by and we had to drive around and finally found this place, then we were lucky."
Everyone: ...
Yes, come to think of it, the place they were originally planning to camp was much better than this place.
At this time, Dr. Agasa said: "Oh, I forgot to take down the seasoning."
Huiyuan Ai said: "I'll go get it."
Edogawa Conan placed the branch toward the camp and said, "I'll go with you."
Fortunately, Dr. Agasa's tire blew out on a long, straight stretch of road, avoiding a tragic rollover. After confirming it couldn't be repaired, he put up a warning sign and called a towing company, but was told they wouldn't arrive until the afternoon. Traffic was sparse in that area, so he had to set up camp nearby and prepare lunch for the children.
Ai opened the trunk and took out the small box of seasonings. As she was about to leave, she felt a chill in her heart. She paused, unable to help but let go of her hand, letting the small box fall. She hugged herself with her arms and said in a trembling voice, "Here, here I come!"
Edogawa Conan's eyes narrowed, and he quickly pulled her behind the car to block it, while he looked around.
There are organized people around here? Where are they?!
At this moment, a Mercedes-Benz G-Class passed by quickly, and a streak of silver hair in the driver's seat was particularly conspicuous.
It's gin!
Edogawa Conan's pupils shrank, and he subconsciously ran a few steps, then slowly stopped.
He frowned, thinking: Why is Gin driving himself? Where's Vodka? And it's not even his car.
He recalled the fleeting image and saw that there seemed to be someone sitting in the passenger seat, but he couldn't see clearly.
He turned around and helped Huibara Ai up, then picked up the small box and said comfortingly, "They left. It seems they were just passing by."
Haibara Ai grabbed his arm and said, "Tell me, has Gin discovered something? Why has he appeared so many times recently?" She was so panicked that she couldn't control her strength, and Edogawa Conan was a little hurt by her grip.
He patted the back of her hand and said, "Don't be so nervous. The organization has a mission in Tokyo recently, so it's normal for him to appear more frequently."
Haibara Ai paused in her trembling movements, suddenly looked up at him, and asked, "What did you say? What mission? How did you know?!"
Edogawa Conan made some noises, trying to get away with it.
Haibara Ai didn't buy it. She said seriously, "Edogawa, you haven't installed a bug somewhere again? Didn't I tell you that bugs are dangerous and they will find out! By then..."
"No, no." Edogawa Conan waved his hands and said, "Actually, I met someone from the organization at Higashino's house before and overheard it." He told her about meeting Jialianlu and Disano discussing the mission at Higashino's house.
Ai Huihara frowned the entire time. She said, "I've never heard of these two code names."
Conan Edogawa: As expected.
"But it's not surprising that the organization targets pharmaceutical companies." Haibara Ai had regained her composure. She continued, "Many of the researchers in the organization were kidnapped or lured from these places." For example, her parents.
She suddenly remembered something and asked, "Are you talking about the Dongye Group?"
Edogawa Conan nodded.
"I think I've heard of it."
"It would be strange if you haven't heard of the Tono Group, which is so famous." said Conan Edogawa.
Haibara Ai rolled her eyes at him: "I mean, I should have heard of it when I was in the organization."
Edogawa Conan was startled and asked, "What?"
She propped her chin up, thought for a moment, and said, "It should have been seven years ago that the organization decided to take action against the Dongye Group."
"But I was still studying at that time, so I didn't know the details. I heard it from my teacher."
Edogawa Conan frowned: "You still have a teacher?"
Huiyuan Ai was speechless: "Where else did I get my knowledge from? Do you think I was born with the ability to develop medicine?"
Conan Edogawa thought: That's about right.
"At the time, the organization sent me to study in the United States. But because they were afraid that I would be exposed to the outside world and develop thoughts of leaving the organization, all my teachers were researchers from the organization. I remember that at that time, they were also very busy, but they had to obey the organization's instructions to teach me. One day, a teacher said that we should recruit more people. Then someone said that once the organization took over the Dongye Group, there would be no shortage of people. But the teacher said, what's the point of having a bunch of clinical doctors? After that, the laboratory did not increase its staff, and the matter was shelved."
"I see..." Edogawa Conan frowned in thought. Seven years ago, the organization abandoned the mission against the Tono Group for unknown reasons, but now it is brought up again. It seems that the new technology mentioned by the FBI is really important to the organization.
After saying this, Ai Huibara returned to the campsite with the small box of seasonings. Meanwhile, Conan Edogawa leisurely sent a message to Shuichi Akai, asking him to investigate the organization's mission seven years ago.
Shuichi Akai replied: ...It would be faster to ask Bourbon, right?
Edogawa Conan thought about it and said, "Yeah! I should ask Mr. Amuro!"
It was all Mr. Amuro's fault for always being unwilling to share news with him. He subconsciously felt that Mr. Amuro would not tell him.

Yuiichi Hatori drove to a remote place. Not far away there was a warehouse that looked abandoned.
Vermouth gestured for him to put on sunglasses and speak less, then led him inside.
It was actually converted into a shooting range!
"Hello, Brother Gin! Hello, Sister Vermouth!" When the people inside saw them walk in, they immediately stopped what they were doing, stood up and greeted them.
"Which room is empty?" Vermouth asked, raising her chin.
The younger brothers said, "The innermost one."
Vermouth smiled and said, "Brother Gin and I have something to discuss today, so don't disturb us."
"good!"
The younger brothers watched the two of them walk into the innermost private room, then huddled together and whispered.
A: "Why isn't Vodka here? Isn't he the boss's henchman?"
B: "You don't understand this, brother must want to be alone with sister Bei! Why is he bringing a light bulb with him?"
C: "So, if they told us not to disturb you, they also wanted to have some time for themselves, right?"
B: "That's for sure!"
A: "By the way, why is Brother Gin wearing sunglasses today?"
B: "Maybe because I want to act cool in front of Sister Bay."
C: "Ah? Is this the kind of personality Big Brother has?"
B: "I was just talking nonsense."
A&C: “…”
Vermouth didn't know about her younger brothers' speculations, but even if she knew, she would just laugh it off. There was no need to explain this kind of gossip, just an enigmatic smile. And then...
Then you will get a furry Gin.
However, these little brothers didn't dare to make trouble in front of her and Gin, so she was destined not to see this scene.
Vermouth handed a pistol to Hatori Yuichi and asked him to try it.
He took off his black top hat and sunglasses, put on noise-canceling earmuffs, held the gun and raised his hand ready to shoot.
Vermouth raised her eyebrows when she saw his action.
Hatori Yui quickly finished the eight rounds in the magazine and took off his earmuffs.
Vermouth was surprised when she saw the results: "They are all above eight rings, are you so good?"
Hatori Yuiichi explained, "After I came out of there, Gin took care of me for a few days. He taught me."
"No wonder, I was wondering why your gun grip is so standard." Vermouth said, "In that case, let's go back today. I don't have anything else to teach you for now."
Hatori Yuiichi was stunned and asked, "Is it okay to fight like this?"
"What are you talking about?" Vermouth looked at him in surprise. "It's okay to be able to shoot at a 25-meter target like this. In actual combat, as long as you can hit the target, don't become a master of human body outlines. Do you still want to be a sharpshooter? If you have such a skill, Gin will take you away immediately."
Hatori Yui pondered for a moment and decided that she had a point. However, if he wanted to practice shooting, he could find a shooting club himself.
Vermouth couldn't accept the expression on his face when he used Gin. She pushed her sunglasses on his face and said, "Go back quickly."
Hatori Yuiichi: “Oh.”
