This makes sense...but unfortunately Conan was also present at the scene, and had just had a conversation with this member of an evil organization. No wonder Vermouth stared at him with that look just now.

I've been wanting to ask this for a long time, why does Vermouth also have whitening spots to brush? Even though there are only five.

[It's like this, because Vermouth will rationally let go of the sea when it comes to Mao Lilan and Kudo Shinichi, so she can't be considered a complete black side. She can brush some white points appropriately, but she can't brush all white points, so... it's five points. ]

Let the sea go...well, that makes sense.

But Xiao Si said that Vermouth had whitewashing points because she let Conan go, so the idea of ​​​​blowing whitewashing points is also very clear. As long as you let Conan go, can't you successfully get Vermouth's whitewashing points? [Is there a possibility that when Vermouth sees you approaching Conan, the whitewashing points will not increase but decrease. 】

Xian thought about it carefully and felt that Xiao Si was right.

Vermouth protects her L guy like a treasure. If she sees a dangerous member of the organization approaching, she would probably want to kill him in the next second, especially after Conan becomes smaller. Vermouth certainly doesn't want this secret to be discovered by the members of the organization.

Then Vermouth saw Finlandia looking at the sleeping Kogoro with some confusion, and slowly walked towards that side.

After all, those red ones, or those that are half black and half red, all have obvious "weak spots" that allow him to clean up the white spots, but Vermouth...

Xian and Xiao Si were chatting casually. Logically, he should go find Gin now, but after the case was over, he sent a message to Gin, but there was no reply yet. He could only walk slowly around here, moving towards Gin's sniper point far away.

[Host, what are you doing?! Are you trying to catch Conan? ]

Anyway, you are a system and you can't vomit. I just made Vermouth disgusted.

So Vermouth arrived at her destination happily, and then disguised herself as a young police officer from the forensic department, intending to look for clues, and then secretly help solve the case and rescue Finlandia.

In that case, then she would go and join in the fun. No, she should go to support Finlandia who was about to be arrested as a suspect. After all, it would be very troublesome if the members of the organization were really taken to the police station.

[I think Vermouth will be the first to shoot you...]

Then Vermouth saw what she had been thinking about.

Finlandia's sensitivity, she didn't dare to bet casually. Moreover... Finlandia always liked children. Even if Finlandia didn't realize that Conan was Kudo Shinichi, that kind of smart child might be enough to attract Finlandia's attention...

Since she was there, there should be no worries about the case being solved, so Vermouth decided not to expose herself. After all, she just couldn't hold back her malicious look, and it might be troublesome if Finlandia pursued it.

[Host, don't relax! Vermouth is still watching you! ]

Xian did not turn on the system detection, nor did he notice that Conan had followed. He was discussing with Xiao Si about bringing Conan back to the organization, and then putting him back in front of Vermouth, thereby eliminating the possibility of the white spot.

Although he looked like he was observing, Xian's attention was not on Maori Kogoro, but on what was behind him. He wanted to see if Vermouth would call him back, stop him from observing, or take another step forward.

Okay, I got it. I'll...test her first.

Seeing the police officer's puzzled expression, Xian continued, "I've heard that the famous detective Maori Kogoro seems to be out of tune, but he can always solve cases in his sleep, and has solved many unsolved cases in a short period of time, so I admire him very much." Xian paused, and sighed in his tone, "Before, I saw Mr. Maori solving cases, and I was amazed at his reasoning ability, but I ignored his demeanor when reasoning. Today, I want to see his sleeping face up close."

The secretary shuddered and remained silent for a long time. Then, as if relieved, he finally smiled helplessly and said, "Yes, I did kill him."

"Well... I think you're right." Xian smiled helplessly, "Getting too close or looking too closely always feels like it will affect Mr. Maori's ability to solve the case." As he spoke, Xian stepped back a little, and Vermouth also took the opportunity to step back, distanced himself from Xian.

Damn it! Why are you here?! Seeing the little boy with glasses running around the crime scene, Vermouth was panicked for a moment.

After a while, Vermouth finally found her voice and barely remembered that she was now a police officer. She changed to a corresponding male voice: "...I see."

[Host, I think Vermouth will have a psychological trauma after today. ]

That makes sense. If Conan finds something wrong, he will probably go to Dr. Agasa's house, so the two of them are in a showdown now? [It's possible, host! Maybe Ai has told Conan directly about your identity as a member of the organization. He is not just suspicious and a little afraid of you, but really afraid of you...]

[…I suddenly felt sympathy for Vermouth.]

Obviously, Finlandia noticed that something was wrong with Maori Kogoro, and he was about to go to the hiding place! Vermouth sounded the alarm in her heart. She couldn't let Finlandia see that she was helping Maori Kogoro reason! If that happened, Vermouth couldn't imagine the consequences.

Suddenly, Xian stopped, glanced into an alley, then raised his eyebrows and walked towards that side casually.

Conan noticed Xi'an leaving, hesitated for a moment, and decided to follow. He made up an excuse to reassure Mao Lilan, and then quietly followed Xi'an.

Don't say it so heartlessly.

"Mr. Hinamori, what are you looking at?" The ordinary-looking police officer walked behind Xian as quietly as possible, patted Xian's shoulder lightly, and asked.

"Well, Mr. Maori's ability to solve cases is really amazing." Xian was still praising Maori Kogoro with admiration, "I want to take a closer look, but I always feel that it would be rude."

[Your behavior is like mental pollution...]

He was actually stuck in a murder case and was even mistaken for the murderer... Vermouth couldn't help but laugh when she saw the message sent by Gin.

Looking at Xian's face, which was full of sighs and longing, Vermouth was almost out of control. Although she knew that what Finlandia said was probably half true and half false, it was still difficult for her to just laugh it off after hearing such words.

Xian refused to answer, he was just praising Maori Kogoro. Besides, Maori Kogoro was not a complete waste, how could he not deserve a few compliments.

It seems to make sense.

She just wants to take it easy now.

It doesn’t matter. Conan won’t question him directly anyway. He just needs to pretend that he knows nothing and continue to treat Conan as a child.

You said... where did Haibara Ai go after she ran away that day? [I don't know either? But the only place Ai could go is Dr. Agasa's house, right?]

"…Just like that, you used this clever method to kill President Amikura. Don't you think I'm right, Miss Secretary?" Conan summarized in the voice of Kogoro Mouri.

Vermouth: ...

Seeing that Finlandia would be completely exposed to Finlandia's eyes if she took a few more steps forward, Vermouth gritted her teeth and decided to step forward to divert Finlandia's attention. It didn't matter even if she was discovered, because she always had a reason.

“…I think it would be better for Mr. Hinamori to observe from afar.” Vermouth slowed down and stood firm, not wanting to let Finlandia get any closer.

Please, how could I do such a thing? I was pretending to wonder how Kogoro Maori could solve the case while sleeping, to see if I could attract Vermouth's attention.

Vermouth: ….For a moment, I felt like there was something stuck in my throat.

Yay, it’s over!

Xian stopped at a very suitable distance, from which he could just see the sleeping face of Maori Kogoro, and if he moved a little bit forward, he would be able to see someone behind Maori Kogoro. Right here, Xian stopped at the right time and slowly looked at Maori Kogoro.

Vermouth was really afraid that Finlandia would become powerful, so she would trick Conan back and train him for a while before bringing him into the organization. Although she was still confident in his determination, she was more afraid of Finlandia's method of training "good children". Although she was far away in the United States before, she had heard a little bit of rumors about taking good children back... It's not like Finlandia had never done it before. When Vermouth thought about being trained by Finlandia from the Holmes of the Heisei era to the Moriarty of the Heisei era, she felt suffocated, and she couldn't suppress her murderous intent against Finlandia. As a result, she was almost discovered by Finlandia by accident.

Xian blinked, showing an expression of disbelief and surprise on his face, but he was already relaxed in his heart.

Then Xian felt faint footsteps behind him, and a presence was slowly approaching him.

Xian feels that Vermouth is a rather contradictory person, and if it can be handled well... it is not impossible for her to be whitewashed with the help of Conan.

Tsk, hard to say.

It shouldn't be that serious, right? I just said a few simple words.

"Hmm?" Feeling someone patting his shoulder, Xian turned around and saw a very familiar police officer. Hearing his question, Xian's eyes curved and he answered softly, "I'm looking at Mr. Maori."

Vermouth, who roughly knew what kind of person Maori Kogoro was, just felt a little bit overwhelmed...

But I think it's reasonable? I caught Conan, and then let Vermouth persuade me earnestly, and I just pretended to be shaken and let Conan go, and it's a bit more whitewashed, isn't it?

When I think about it this way, I suddenly feel that these five whitewashing points of Vermouth are the hardest to obtain.

Although she knew that she was always restless, Vermouth was nervous when she saw him approach Finlandia so directly and ask about various case information without any reservation.

Although they were both going to kill someone, it was obviously Gin who should have killed someone, but in the end the murderer was pinned on Finlandia... It's a bit ironic, but more of a joke.

Xian looked at Conan, who was in deep thought, and then his glasses suddenly reflected the light, revealing an expression of "I see", and knew that this case was probably coming to an end. But Xian suddenly remembered something.

"Mr. Hinamori." Xian turned into the alley and saw the previous police officer looking at him with a smile.

The secretary on the other side was already lowering her head to state her reasons for the murder. Xian had no intention of listening to it. He just stood up and slowly approached Maori Kogoro without leaving any trace, looking at him with a puzzled look.

When Vermouth received the news that Gin needed assistance for his mission, she was very surprised and felt a bit gloating.

[…Host, I feel like your thoughts are becoming increasingly dark.]

[Host, I'm going to vomit. ]

But I don't have time to think about this kind of thing right now. I should try my best to help Conan solve the case, clear myself of suspicion and get away quickly.

On the other side, Conan has successfully solved the case using Kogoro Mouri's voice. Xian followed along as a formality, and then promised to take a statement another day. Vermouth apparently left with the police team, while Xian slowly left the banquet.

Conan followed Xian quietly and saw Xian turned into the alley, so he stopped at the entrance of the alley. Xian didn't go very deep into the alley, so Conan could hear what he said clearly. Hearing a familiar voice, Conan was stunned for a moment, because that voice had given him a lot of clues when he was solving the case just now, so Conan was deeply impressed.

If I remember correctly, it should be a forensic police officer. Conan was a little confused, why would this person meet with Mr. Hinamori in such a place? So Conan tilted his head and stretched his ears to listen.

"…If we were here, we wouldn't have to talk like that, right?" Conan heard Xian say in a gentle voice.

"What do you think, Vermouth?"
