Chapter 819 Don't Shark Maori Kogoro Ask for a monthly ticket ()
Anyway, from Vermouth's perspective, for Angel's feelings and the harmony between the three children in the future...
She couldn't sit idly by and watch Kogoro Mori being killed by a "murder drama" that Usa casually staged.
“……”We have to think of a way to rescue people from Wuzo’s hands.
However, if you think about it carefully, Uzo may not necessarily want to kill people.
Maybe he just wanted to play a harmless prank on Kogoro Mouri, teasing and taking revenge on this elder who didn't let him enter the bar.
…
All in all, the situation is currently unclear.
Vermouth felt that she couldn't lose her composure.
"I remember that you have a mission to take care of recently." Vermouth walked to Jiang Xia's side and spoke in a low voice as if nothing had happened, "At this critical juncture, if someone related to you gets into trouble, won't it attract the attention of the police?"
Wuzo was facing the night breeze, not paying any attention to her advice: "Even if I do nothing, I still have a strong presence in the eyes of the police. Of course, it is a positive presence... And in the final analysis, what do these cases have to do with me? I just passed by and solved the case - I can only blame the murderer for trampling on the law."
Vermouth: "..."
She hesitated for words, but she really didn't know how to say it. Without exposing herself, she could make Usa realize the significance of Maori Kogoro to Angel. As the "Vermouth" in the organization, she couldn't just say "If that guy died, Xiaolan would be very sad"...
Just as she was thinking, Wu Zuo beside her suddenly turned his head and looked at her with interest: "You seem to care about Uncle Maori very much. Is there something about him... or around him that attracts you very much?"
“……” Vermouth’s face was calm, but a cold sweat silently broke out on her back.
...Although Uzo used a question mark, Vermouth, who had something to hide, was indeed worried that her feelings for Angel and Cool Guy would be exposed, even if the person who knew about it was Uzo.
——The two children were her handle and weakness that she could not avoid. However, Vermouth's personality and identity made her instinctively want to hide this news tightly and never let anyone know.
And, Vermouth thought.
If Uzo knew, how would he react?
...Thinking of this, Vermouth couldn't help but think of the piles of innocent passers-by who were harmed by Uzo for no reason in the newspaper.
"..." With Uzo's dangerous personality that is completely opposite to his appearance and like a shadow hunter. Vermouth could not imagine that after the truth was exposed, she and Uzo would shake hands in a friendly manner: "You want to protect Shinichi and Xiaolan? Oh, what a coincidence, so do I, let's be allies!"... Such a situation.
This is impossible.
On the contrary, by then, maybe Uzo would just feel unhappy for some inexplicable reason like "Vermouth's situation in this matter is too similar to his, and their personalities overlap", and he would suspend his plot to murder Bourbon and instead concentrate on dealing with her.
Or they think that Vermouth, who also knows that "Kudo Shinichi = Conan", is also a threat, and in order to prevent Cool Guy from being killed by the organization, they return to the previous speculation and concentrate on murdering her.
...In short, it's hard to end.
After reading so many cases summarized by Gin and Vodka, even Vermouth, who was confident and good at controlling people's hearts, could not help but feel a little afraid of Uzo. And she did not want to be an enemy of Uzo.
In short, from all aspects, Vermouth felt that he should try to conceal this news. Unless after further observation, it is confirmed that Uzo's aggressiveness is not as strong as the newspaper said...
Fortunately, Vermouth thought, she was an actor after all. She was very good at controlling subtle expressions and had studied human hearts.
When facing Uzo, she obviously has certain advantages compared to others.
A series of thoughts flashed through my mind like lightning.
Soon, in response to Jiang Xia's question, Vermouth smiled mysteriously and skillfully:
“I was just wondering, what interesting script have you written?
"If you keep being a spectator for a long time, you will get bored. After all, the motives, methods, techniques of murder, the hatred and entanglements between people... in the end, there are only a few types. After watching them over and over again, you can even guess what will happen next."
In the moonlight, Vermouth turned around and leaned her back against the railing.
She raised the wine glass in her hand and gently clinked it with the glass in Jiang Xia's hand.
In the crisp low sound, Vermouth looked into Jiang Xia's eyes and lowered her voice, with a hint of coaxing and request in her tone: "Take me to see the perspective behind the scenes, huh? - I want to know what the world looks like in your eyes."
When they clinked glasses, the foam in her glass splashed up a few times like stars.
...and then fell into Jiang Xia's juice cup.
Jiang Xia lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the two cups that didn't fit in with the atmosphere: "..."
Vermouth subconsciously followed his gaze. Realizing something, the corner of her eye twitched slightly.
"..." She just felt that when she said this, she should clink glasses with him - it was a sense of ritual. In the past, when she discussed things with other cadres, she often liked to hold a glass of wine in her hand... but at that time, it was a beautiful crystal glass, and the glass was filled with high-end red wine with a fragrant aroma.
And now...
Vermouth glanced at the huge beer mug in her hand.
Look at the bright yellow juice in Wuzo's hand again.
There was a brief silence.
“…” Fortunately, Uzo didn’t seem to care about these details.
When Vermouth was holding her breath to hear the spoiler.
Jiang Xia walked to the side, and under the smiling gaze of the staff in the distance, he put down the juice and replaced it with a glass of Coke that looked more calm in color, and then added a piece of round ice into it as he would with a liquor.
I looked down and felt that this was much more formal than juice.
He then took the new drink, walked back to Vermouth as if nothing had happened, and continued the previous conversation.
"The most boring thing is behind the scenes. Although at first glance, the murder methods and emotions are indeed limited. But within those major categories, every detail is actually very different - just like the three primary colors, mixed in various proportions, the final result is a dazzling color."
Jiang Xia imitated Vermouth's tone, talking nonsense mysteriously and seriously:
"Compared to those unpredictable emotions and effects of tactics, as long as a case is committed by a human being, there is no insurmountable difficulty. Another person can do the same thing - in other words, the 'behind-the-scenes perspective' you want to see is just some bland hard work."
