Chapter 144: Gin's End Conan once again shows off his skills, using his foot...
Gion Festival is just another exciting theatrical action film as always.
Conan showed off again and used his football to shoot down the luxury sports car that Gin was trying to escape in.
Thanks to the care of Tsuna Momiji's family, the police force dispatched from Kyoto this time was very professional and actually caught Gin and did not let him escape.
After all, people in the elite group also know when to be insignificant and when it is crucial for their future and when the real KPI is in their hands.
In the words of Tsuna Momiji, your rural Tokyo police have been trying to catch the elite members of this terrible organization for so long but have not been able to do so, but our Kyoto police caught them on their first try.
Conan puffed out his beard and glared, but there was nothing he could do.
Then.
Kyoto Police Headquarters, underground detention room.
Haibara Ai stopped.
On the other side of the one-way glass is gin.
This important member of the Black Organization sat on the interrogation chair, his long silver hair dull and his hands handcuffed.
"Want to go in?"
Vermouth leaned against the door frame, folded her arms, and looked at Haibara's profile.
She wore a tight black dress today, showing off her breathtakingly charming curves, like a blooming black tulip.
Huiyuan didn't look back.
"I thought you would be more excited." Huibara said lightly.
"Oh?" Vermouth walked closer in high heels.
"What are you hinting at?" Vermouth asked, moving very close.
Huiyuan turned sideways, avoiding her lips.
"We all betrayed the organization."
"So we are the same kind." Vermouth's slender fingers stroked Huibara's shoulders, as if marking her possession.
Huibara turned around and looked directly at her with his icy blue eyes.
"I'm different from you."
Vermouth tilted her head, a strand of golden hair falling. "Then what's that in your hand?"
Huiyuan spread out her palms.
A small medicine bottle with three red and white capsules lying quietly inside. APTX4869.
"justice."
Vermouth smiled.
"Dear, revenge is revenge. Don't make it sound so nice."
"Are you teaching me about justice?"
"A suggestion." Vermouth reached out and gently brushed away the short strands of hair on Huiyuan's forehead. "I don't want my little Shirley to become another Gin."
Huiyuan slapped her hand away.
"I want to see him."
"Do you need me to accompany you?"
"No need." Huiyuan pushed open the door of the interrogation room. "This is my business."
"What a shame." Vermouth's voice followed, "I wanted to see you cry."
The door closed.
Gin looked up, his green eyes empty.
"Shirley," he began.
Huibara sat down opposite him and placed the medicine bottle on the table.
"Let me ask you a question."
"Ask." Gin leaned back in his chair, his handcuffs clanking.
"You promised my sister Mingmei," Huiyuan said coldly, "complete that mission and let her go."
Gin stared at her and suddenly smiled.
"You want to know?"
"explain."
"Life is boring." Gin shrugged indifferently.
"It's fun to see you sisters so hopeful."
Huibara clenched her hands on her knees into fists.
"that's all?"
"What else?" Gin's green eyes were filled with morbid enthusiasm. "I like to see hope in the eyes of little beauties like you."
He paused.
"I will crush your hopes with my own hands."
"Your sister, Mingmei," he smiled, "the sound of it breaking is very nice."
Huibara stood up and picked up the medicine bottle.
"I see."
"That's it?" Gin seemed disappointed. "No crying? No screaming?"
"You don't deserve it." Huiyuan unscrewed the bottle cap and poured out three capsules. "You don't deserve my tears, even more."
Gin looked at the pill.
"APTX4869."
"You recognize it."
"Your masterpiece." Gin picked up a pill, "I still prefer bullets."
"Eat it. Maybe one of them won't kill you, but will make you smaller. It's your choice."
"What if I don't?"
Haibara pulled out a gun and pointed it at his head. It was given to him by Vermouth.
Gin laughed again.
"Don't you dare shoot, Shirley."
Gin didn't know that when Haibara just became a small girl, she fired a gun in front of Conan and Inspector Megure, and then used the identity of a loli to cover it up. It can be said that she had a superb crying scene.
"You're right." Huiyuan put down the gun, "But someone dares."
The door opened.
Vermouth walked in and took the gun from Haibara.
"Need some help, dear?"
When he saw Vermouth, the smile on Gin's face disappeared.
"Vermouth."
"Long time no see, Gin." Vermouth sat down next to Huibara, the muzzle of the gun pointed steadily at him, "You look very bad."
"traitor."
"Same here," Vermouth said, "it's just that my taste is better than yours."
She looked at Huibara.
"Do you want me to do it?"
"Need not."
Huibara pushed three capsules in front of him.
Gin looked at them silently. They were his former colleagues, his former prey, and now his judges.
Gin stared at the capsule on the table.
He picked one out and put it in his mouth.
"It's ironic to be killed by the monster you raised yourself."
Haibara stood opposite him, her posture straight, her brown hair tidy, and she looked at Gin calmly.
"You didn't train me. You were just a helper for the organization, a piece of cattle that could be discarded at any time."
The drug takes effect.
Gin's body tensed, sweat beading on his forehead.
Vermouth stepped back, put her arm around Haibara's shoulders, and pulled her behind her, separating her from Gin.
Gin choked and coughed violently, then suddenly stopped and stared with wide eyes.
"this……"
Heat exploded from his heart and spread throughout his body.
Bones are out of place. Muscles are twisted.
Vermouth looked down at him.
"Last words?"
Gin propped himself up and locked his green eyes on Haibara.
"Shirley, you'll become like me. Hatred will consume you."
When a person is about to die, his words are good, but they may not apply to the person in front of him.
"No." Huiyuan stood up straight, "I have love."
The corners of Gin's mouth twitched, and the severe pain prevented him from laughing.
"Goodbye, Gin."
She turned and walked towards the door.
Vermouth followed her, stopped at the door and looked back.
"By the way, Gin. No one in hell is driving you."
The door is closed.
Inside, Gin's body fell to the ground.
He twitched violently, the shackles clanging as he struggled, and for the first time, a look of fear appeared on his usually cold and expressionless face.
The most primal fear of having one's own existence erased.
"Ah...Ahhhhhhh!!!" The scream finally broke through his throat.
Conan closed his eyes subconsciously.
And Haibara, in Vermouth's arms, forced herself to keep her eyes open and watch the scene in front of her without blinking.
Her body was shaking, but her eyes were very calm.
My sister's revenge was finally avenged.
However, the dead cannot be resurrected.
If she could do it again, would she have taken her sister away before she left for the bank mission? Huiyuan didn't know.
Sometimes, only when you reach that point will you have the courage to burn your boats.
Especially since she grew up in an organization, she is always afraid of it.
Gin stopped twitching and collapsed to the ground, motionless.
The drug didn't make him smaller, it just dissolved him completely.
Haibara leaned against Vermouth, her body exhausted.
"See, Sherry?" Vermouth whispered in her ear, "This is the punishment for bad people."
Huiyuan was silent.
After a long time, a tear slid down and landed on the back of Vermouth's hand.
Piping hot.
Vermouth lowered her eyes and looked at the tear.
She raised her hand and gently stroked Huibara's brown hair.
"It's over," she said.
"No." Huiyuan opened her eyes, tears still lingering on her face, but a smile lingered on her lips. "Everything has just begun."
She turned around and looked directly at Vermouth. Her ice-blue eyes were clear, reflecting Vermouth's breathtakingly beautiful face.
"We have a secret."
Huiyuan said softly.
"Just the two of us."
Vermouth smiled.
She raised her hand and wiped away Huibara's tears, and her touch felt cold.
"Yes, my little Sherry."
Vermouth's voice is as mellow and charming as ever.
"Now, you are a real woman."
.
The bells of Kyoto rang.
Ai Haibara stood outside the restaurant door.
She was wrapped in a furisode kimono, the fabric of which was delicately embroidered with cherry blossoms.
A work by Ooka Momiji. This dress felt unfamiliar to her.
The door opened.
Vermouth leaned against the door frame. "A rare visitor."
She looked at Huibara, her gaze falling from her hair to her clogs. "A scientist wearing a kimono has a unique flavor."
"Save the compliments." Huiyuan Ai adjusted the belt around her waist, "I'm getting down to business."
Vermouth turned sideways and extended her arm. "Come in, my little kitty. Tea is ready."
Inside the room, the scent of sandalwood is deep.
Vermouth knelt at the table, filling the cup with water, warming it, and brewing it. Her movements were as smooth as flowing water.
"What do you want to know?" She pushed the teacup towards Huibara. "About your parents?"
"Their deaths were ordered by that person?"
Vermouth did not answer.
The white mist of hot tea rose up, separating the two people.
Vermouth picked up the teacup and said, "The order was given by that gentleman himself."
"Why?" Huibara asked. "They are the organization's most valuable scientists. Why would he destroy his own property?"
"Property?" Vermouth smiled.
"Shirley, you underestimate him. He's not a businessman, he's an emperor. Emperors don't look at value, they only look at loyalty."
She picked up a piece of Japanese confectionery, lowered her silver fork, and cut it open clearly, revealing the bean paste.
"Your parents are hopeless idealists. They want to create Pandora's box and lock hope inside."
"Speak human language." Huibara interrupted her.
"Okay." Vermouth shrugged.
She picked up half of the wagashi with a fork, put it in her mouth, and chewed it slowly.
"Simply put, the development of APTX4869 got out of control. The romantic idea of 'turning back time' became a highly efficient, traceless killing tool. They also realized that gentleman's ultimate goal was even more insane than immortality. So they became afraid and wanted to stop, destroy the data, and escape with you sisters."
Vermouth's narration is straightforward.
"How could the Emperor allow a swordsmith to melt a sharp sword that was about to be unsheathed? Your parents didn't die in an accident, nor did they die from a cleansing."
The silver fork was raised, and the tip was pointed at Huibara's heart.
"They died of treason."
The bamboo tube for adding water hits the stone surface, making a "dang" sound.
The target of hatred finally became concrete.
Karasuma Renya. A monster entrenched in the apex of darkness.
Huibara looked up and looked directly into Vermouth's eyes. "Where is he... now? Is he still in your house in Arashiyama?"
Vermouth smiled.
"As you saw the other night, that gentleman, the biologist from the remnants of the Collective Organization, made some optimizations based on the data you left behind. His goal was to clearly revert to infancy, not to randomly shrink to a seven-year-old. That would be undignified."
"Biologically, the experiment was perfect. Karasuma Renya, the leader of an organization that lived for nearly a century and a half and manipulated the world, has indeed become a crying infant."
"It's just that yesterday, this improved version had a small bug."
Huiyuan looked at her without saying anything.
"A century of apoptosis forcibly reversed. The price was heavy. His new body couldn't contain the old soul. Organs failed. Immune system collapsed."
Vermouth put down the snack.
"So, Gin is dead, and now where is our great new monarch?"
"He was transferred to the hospital, to the ICU. He was hooked up to tubes and his heart was being kept alive by the most expensive machines."
Haibara looked at Vermouth coldly.
"I'm not going to go to him. I'm not going to pull the tube out of him, and I'm not going to give him any medicine."
"His sins deserve these tortures. To lay hands on a baby would bring shame upon my parents' names."
"Let him lie there. Let him see with his own eyes how the immortality he created devours him."
"Let him fend for himself. This is the best punishment for him."
The frost in Vermouth's eyes melted.
She smiled.
"I knew it."
Her words were warm.
"You really look like your mother. Elena told me the same thing back then."
Huiyuan was stunned.
"She gave me the name 'Vermouth', my little Shirley."
The rain stopped, and a ray of sunlight broke through the clouds and shone into the courtyard.
The light fell on the white sand and also illuminated the two women in the corridor.
The bamboo tube is filled with water.
A "bang" sound broke the silence in the Kyoto courtyard.
