Chapter 226 Winter is Coming

"Never hate him."

"......"

Yueshan opened his mouth and suddenly fell silent.

For a while, he couldn't say anything. After a few seconds, he suddenly felt that he should be happy for Yu Gu Miao. At least Yu Gu Miao would be very happy to hear this. In the more than ten years he wandered in the organization, in addition to blood and sin, he also found some shining things. There were not many, but they were bright enough to help him climb out of the mud.

The chef who was not good at speaking but wrote down all his preferences, the girl with brown short hair who always had a cold face like a hedgehog, and Vermouth who said nothing but asked him at this time...

Are they friends? They were usually more indifferent than friends, but sometimes it was like...

Tsukiyama Asari realized that he had been silent for too long.

When he raised his head and looked at the other party, he didn't know that the long-haired woman had been staring at him for a long time.

After stating this condition, Vermouth saw that the other party fell silent, and then the man's eyebrows gradually drooped, which made him look a little different from Cointreau. He looked more like a Samoyed that was drenched by the rain and then taken back to a warm home, with his eyebrow corners drooping gently and his eyes shining, as if these words had hit something in his soul.

"No..." He finally spoke, his voice was not much heavier than the wind, "I will never hate him."

"You promised too quickly." Bermode shook his head, "I mean no matter what I know, I won't, you won't think about it again? Do you trust this brother you just met?"

"Of course not." Yueshan Chaoli looked at him, his fingers paused, and then he took out the dagger at his waist, "and... I know who is the real murderer."

The snow-white dagger flashed with cold light, anyone who had seen the two knives used by Jundu would not mistake this dagger.

The woman's eyes were filled with surprise, she opened her mouth, and immediately realized that this was not the one Jundu was holding now.

It was the one he said he lost during the mission a long time ago.

Guan Shanxue... Guan Shanxue.

He had delivered this dagger to his brother ten years ago.

Just this one look and the emotions in Yueshan Chaori's eyes could make Vermouth believe that he would never resent his brother. "...You actually knew about this."

The woman murmured this sentence, and then silently opened the simple disguise tool she carried with her. The moment she turned her head away, the black-haired man saw a very thin and small light flash across her eyes. It

was very short, and when she turned around and pressed the face of the person opposite with her hand stained with red nail polish, the light had disappeared.

Less than ten minutes later, Vermouth put down his hand.

"Okay." She said.

The younger face of Cointreau due to the drug made the disguise much easier. The black-haired man in front of him had completely overlapped with his brother. Although he had not fully grown up, he still had sharp eyebrows, sharp features, and red lips. The bruises on his neck just covered the pinholes that should have appeared. The woman fiddled with the other person's black hair with her fingers and said, "There is one last step."

She turned around and wanted to take out the scissors from the tool box, but was gently stopped by the other person.

"Can I use this...?" Yueshan Chaoli was silent for a while and raised the snow-white dagger.

"What a waste of this good thing."

After cutting off the last strand of black hair with the sharp blade of the dagger, Bermode said

. She stroked the surface of the cold jade-like dagger in her hand, as if she was mourning the fact that it was used to cut hair for the first time in ten years. Then, she returned the dagger to the other party and whispered, "Okay."

Tsukiyama Asari saw his current appearance from the side of the smooth blade of the dagger.

The half-long black hair that could be easily tied up was cut short to a length similar to Yutani Miu. The sharp eyebrows and face shape after the modification, the eyes that changed the color with the colored contact lenses, and the formal dress, there was no difference from Jundu.

"Thank you." The black-haired man said seriously, and bowed his eyes to Bermode.

It was not an expression that would appear on Yu Gu Miao's face at all. The smile was without any gloom, and the woman felt irritated subconsciously. Perhaps if the boy had not experienced these... so many things, and grew up with his parents' endless love, he would always have this kind of smile.

She wanted to smoke.

"This expression really doesn't suit this face." The woman looked away, took out a box of ladies' cigarettes, took out a cigarette from it and put it in her mouth, and quickly ordered him to leave.

Tsukiyama Chaoli paused as he was about to leave. He thought of something and stopped again, "After you..."

Vermouth is different from Gin. She will not stand with the organization like that overly loyal guy, but during these years in the Black Side, she will not take the initiative to contact the Red Side. If she must say, it seems that there is no place for her in the Black Side or the Red Side.

"This is not a problem you should worry about." She paused and flicked the ash as if she was not worried about anything. "You should go."

Tsukiyama Chaoli looked at her quietly, and quickly turned and left.

It is not far from here to the laboratory. On the way there, he had already thought of a countermeasure.

.

In the lounge outside the laboratory.

The experimenter took off his white coat, frowned, and whispered to his colleague, "What was the alarm just now about?"

"There are police officers in the venue, and Rum has been arrested." His colleague quickly responded, "It has nothing to do with us. If we run into them if we go out now, we might get hurt by mistake... Let's wait a little longer."

"I'll go back up the experimental data..."

Before he finished speaking, there was a loud crash outside. The experimenter immediately stood up, holding a pistol in his right hand, signaling his colleague to go to the self-destruct device and be ready to start at any time, and then he and another person slowly walked towards the sound.

".....Cointreau?"

When he reached the door, the researcher was stunned by the scene in front of him.

The black-haired man who had just left the laboratory not long ago came back here again. His clothes were all wet, and even his shoulders and arms were covered with blood. His hair was also mostly wet and messily tied behind his head, ruining his previous hairstyle.

He seemed to be in great pain, holding his neck with one hand. From the places that his hand could not cover, the researcher saw large patches of bruises, as if he had pinched himself because of the pain.

The experimenter's eyebrows jumped, and he immediately stepped forward to support the man, "Cointreau? Can you hear me clearly?!"

He responded with a cough. The black-haired man lowered his head, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth as he coughed, dripping onto the ground.

".....The drug...there's something wrong with test agent number one!" The researcher's face immediately turned pale at the sight, and he shouted to the others, "Hurry up! Get the operating table out and go into the lab!"

Immediately after that, someone came up and supported the man who looked unsteady from the other side, and together with the researcher, they helped him to the door leading to the lab, where the latter regained some sense in his panic. , said, "First check the fingerprints!"

The man next to him immediately reached out to grab the black-haired man's hand, but only felt blood on his hand. He looked down and saw that under the severe complications, the man unconsciously clenched the knife in his hand. The blood from the narrow crack on the palm of his hand stained his entire hand. In addition, because of his struggle in pain, the bloody hand could not be identified on the screen.

"Damn it!"

Someone cursed in a low voice, followed by another crisp sound. Several people subconsciously looked down and saw the dagger slipping from the man's hand and hitting the ground. The extremely familiar and special appearance made several people immediately determine that this was the one that Jundu never left.

"Use your fingerprint to open it!" Someone shouted to another person, but was immediately refuted, "Hey? Don't check the fingerprints... What if it's a disguise?!"

"Who can find a second knife with that knife?! He won't be able to hold on if he doesn't have surgery. If he dies... All of us in the entire lab will be dead!"

This sentence finally made the experimenter show a look of fear. He picked up the dagger, opened the door of the laboratory with his fingerprint, and then hurriedly helped the man in, and casually placed the bloody dagger next to the test table.

"Put on the ventilator first! Hurry up--!"

At the moment when the cold ventilator was about to be attached to the man's face, the man who was helped to the test table suddenly opened his eyes.

Without a trace of pain or daze in his eyes, the researcher paused for a long time. Before he could react, he felt a flash in front of his eyes. The man who was lying on the test table had jumped down from it and hit him on the back of the head with the instrument beside him, knocking him to the ground.

Then, Yueshan Chaoli quickly wiped the bloody hand and put it back to his waist after knocking down the others who had not yet taken out their guns in this incident.

He took a deep breath and didn't have time to care about the cut on his palm. He swallowed the blood that he had taken in his mouth for disguise, and quickly used the fingerprints of the unconscious researcher to go to another control room not far away through the secret passage in the laboratory.

Familiar layout, the huge thing in the middle with the ship logo on it stood in the center of the room. He looked up and down, and when he finally found an opening that couldn't be any smaller from the corner, he couldn't help but curse.

"Is this a device that a human can come up with? If they want to use this ship to escape, won't it be difficult? ! "

[Don't try to understand the logic of the people in the organization. ]

The system advised kindly beside him, and then he scanned it up and down.

[To destroy this fixed point, you need to unlock it with a fingerprint. Unfortunately, none of the experimenters here can unlock this thing. The good news is that using a bomb will work the same. ]

"I guessed it a long time ago." Yueshan Asari pinched the tip of his nose with a headache, "When necessary, necessary means must be used. '

Thanks to the laboratory, the self-destruct device is now working.

The man returned to the entrance, took the device for repairing the instrument found in the laboratory, and carefully disassembled the entire device. After moving it to the position of the anchor fixture, he took the detonator abandoned in the laboratory by the hurried experimenters, moved them to a place far away from the source of the explosion, and then simply blew up this fixed point and the data of the entire laboratory.

'It's a waste.' Before detonating the bomb, Yueshan Chaoli suddenly remembered something, he stepped back, reached out and took down the USB flash drive that an experimenter had just copied the data from.

When the bomb was pressed, the test platform full of data and the decorations of the fixed anchor points were all detonated. The black-haired man frowned and heard a series of continuous "beeping" sounds after the explosive device was destroyed. He pursed his lips and picked up the connector, feeling a little nervous.

"Is it untied?"

After placing the second to last batch of guests on the ship, Amuro Toru panted softly. When he heard this sentence in the earphone, he immediately turned his head to look at the stern. There seemed to be a loud sound of falling into the water just now. The man immediately went down to check. The iron chain that was almost embedded in the stern had fallen off after a slight click.

Finally, a smile appeared on his face, "Success!"

A small cheer came from the other side, and soon Tsukiyama Asari put away his outward emotions and laughed softly, "Well, see you on the boat later."

"Yes, see you on the boat."

When Tsukiyama Asari rushed back to the boat, they had already transported the last batch of guests on board.

Even though Amuro Toru had said it in advance, when he appeared in front of everyone with such a face, they were still stunned for a moment. Kasugawa Shugo quickly found the medical kit on the ship and wrapped up the wound on his palm tightly. When Edogawa Conan took a wet towel and wanted to help him remove the disguise on his face, he was gently held on the wrist and refused.

"Let me...stay for a while."

So the boy stopped moving, and the ship slowly sailed out of the port. The moment it left the cave, the rocky soil blocks that collapsed from both sides buried the entire underground dock. The seawater that was originally in the cave pushed the huge ship toward the sea surface.

Amid the violent turbulence, Tsukiyama Asari held the boy next to him in his arms. He sat cross-legged on the deck at the bow. The cool sea breeze at night blew from afar, blowing through the clothes soaked by the sea water, bringing a bone-chilling chill.

No one cared about these, and Edogawa Conan didn't care whether the wet fabric was comfortable against their bodies. They just looked at the sea in silence.

After leaving the manor standing tall behind, looking out, there was only the endless sea. They wandered in the dark and closed darkroom for so long, and when they finally left, they found that the sky was already slightly bright.

After finally contacting the Public Security Headquarters through the signal transmitter in the control room, Amuro Toru walked out of the cabin. He stood on the deck and wanted to walk to the front of the bow, but stopped.

The faint light from the sky shone down, illuminating everyone's face and hair. Hair wetted by seawater or sweat reflected the same light as steel.

Subaru Okiya was finally able to take out the box of cigarettes he had been carrying. He gave a few to the policeman next to him, then took one out and put it in his mouth, and took out a cold lighter from the inner pocket of his clothes.

Just now in the venue, he didn't have time to dodge a man who attacked from behind. The sharp blade stabbed his chest. Before it sank into his chest, it first brushed past the hard lighter case, then split from the fatal position, only scratching the poor fabric.

It also left a very shallow scratch on it.

The man narrowed his dark green eyes, placed his fingers on the scratch and moved downwards a little bit. At the very bottom, there was a name carved belonging to someone else.

He lowered his eyes and lit a cigarette with this relic of an old friend who had helped him at a critical moment.

Matsuda Jinpei took the cigarette and put it in his mouth before he suddenly remembered something. He twisted his eyebrows for a long time and finally took the thin long pipe out of his mouth. He looked down, and Kasugawa Shugo on the deck of the cruise ship gave him an expression that said "Little Bear is watching you". After seeing him take down the cigarette, he turned around with satisfaction and squeezed together with the black-haired man again.

Kogoro Mouri's voice came from the side. He was talking loudly to the girl opposite him about lunch requests. The irrelevant words made the worried girl hang up the phone angrily. Looking at this father who went to his daughter to "act coquettishly" as soon as he came out, Kenji Hagiwara smiled and shook his head.

Footsteps came from behind. He turned around and saw that Akiyoshi Kawashima had walked onto the deck at some point. His eyes fell on the black-haired man who was whispering something to Conan Edogawa, and then he quickly retracted his eyes and fell back to the sea.

Everyone is waiting for a sunrise.

.

When Gin finally arrived at the manor on the island, everything was over.

In the dark passage, Yu Gu Miao knelt on one knee in the blood. His body was covered in blood. The blood sprayed on his face slid down from the ends of his hair, dripped on his clothes that seemed to have no room for more blood, and rolled down to the ground.

The continuous reinforcements could not stop the man's blade that was already thirsty for blood. When they finally used drugs, bullets, and all the means they could use to control him, the ship carrying rum... and all the secrets of the organization in the manor had already broken through the thick sea water and sailed away.

No one dared to let Cointreau have any ability to move, so at the moment he was held down, a whole dose of medicine was injected into his veins, and his two knives that were completely stained with blood were removed.

But no one dared to kill him, they just wandered around anxiously, waiting for the arrival of another big man.

Vodka stepped over the pile of corpses on the ground first.

He walked over, stretched out his legs and stepped hard on the bound hands behind Cointreau. The black-haired man had already lost his strength because of the drugs, anesthetic powder or other drugs that they had been throwing into the room during the fight, but no matter how hard Vodka stepped on his straight back to make him kneel on the ground, he did not move at all.

"Look." Bermode looked at it, as if
