"Haha~"
Vermouth chuckled lazily:
"I knew you were like this. No wonder you managed to win over Yukiko. As long as you're pretty, age doesn't matter, right?"
"Cough cough!"
Xia Ye said somewhat guiltily:
"Teacher, it's actually fine for me to be a little older than Yukiko!"
"roll!"
Sure enough, Vermouth's annoyed voice came from the other side.
It wasn't that she was shy.
However, if a teacher simply lets students tease them like this, how can they maintain their authority?
hum!
She knew that Xia Ye wanted to seduce her.
Vermouth didn't care.
Her heart had been empty for a long time, but now that she had found the angel Xiaolan, had friends, and her world had color again, it was not strange for her to find a man under these circumstances.
She just wanted to see.
It's up to Xia Ye to decide what to do~
Xia Ye smiled slightly.
He did not continue to say anything offensive.
A calm and restrained woman like Bei Jie needs to proceed step by step; she's not the same type as Yukiko, who's passionate and outgoing!
the other side.
When Xia Ye was "flirting" with Vermouth.
The situation on Conan and Tequila's side has changed dramatically.
Let's go back to what we were doing earlier.
Tequila picked up the microphone.
I dialed a mysterious number.
The call was quickly connected, and Tequila clearly knew who was on the other end, speaking in a deep voice:
"It's me, Tequila!"
"That's right, the transaction is complete."
"Don't worry about the vodka, nothing's wrong."
!!!
Although he was prepared, Conan was still startled when Tequila mentioned vodka, and he dropped his wallet.
really!
This guy is an accomplice of those men in black!
His code name is Tequila, which, like Gin and Vodka, is a name for an alcoholic beverage. It seems that members of that organization all use alcoholic beverages as their code names!
Very good!
Finally found!
Conan was shocked and overjoyed at that moment!
I almost lost control of my facial expressions.
"Okay, tell Gin—"
"Ok?"
The crisp sound of the coin falling to the ground caught the attention of Tequila and Vodka on the other end of the phone.
Vodka seemed to be cautiously inquiring about the situation. Tequila turned around and saw Conan picking up coins. He said nonchalantly:
"It's nothing, just a kid who dropped a coin. Let's continue, vodka."
"You mean Roland? I haven't met him yet. Yes, you're right. For such a simple transaction, Vermouth actually sent Roland. I don't know what she was thinking—"
"I didn't say that. Vermouth loves mystery, and I can't be bothered to guess what she's thinking!"
"As for Roland, that kid is really capable. I hope the next time we work together won't be on such a small task. Hehe, that's all for now. I'll take the data back soon!"
Tequila and Vodka chatted casually for a bit.
Then he hung up the phone.
however--
The information contained in those few words had Conan overjoyed. Not only had he caught the tail of the black organization, but he had also unexpectedly learned the code names of two more members of the organization.
A lot can be learned from a simple analysis.
Vermouth was clearly of a higher status, because Tequila and Vodka's attitude towards her was very obvious, and the pronunciation of "he" and "she" for men and women is different in Japanese, so Vermouth was actually a woman!
As for Roland...
He's probably young, but very capable.
Both people on the phone thought highly of him.
As for the deal they mentioned.
This is also a breakthrough point.
However, those three employees of the company couldn't escape.
It's best to deal with this guy in front of us first!
Conan crouched down, looked up at the tequila with an innocent expression, and said in a childish voice:
"Uncle, could you please lift your foot? You stepped on my coin, and I can't reach it!"
Tequila glanced at Conan with a sinister look from above, then suddenly kicked him:
"You brat, get out of here!"
After kicking Conan away, Tequila picked up her suitcase and swaggered away arrogantly. Conan frowned, clutching his sore chest, a cold glint flashing behind his glasses.
I got kicked.
However, he also planted a bugging device and a transmitter in the sole of Tequila's shoe. If all goes well, Tequila will lead the way to Gin and vodka!
Conan got up from the ground.
I quietly followed behind Tequila once again.
Wait until they leave.
Xia Ye emerged from around the corner, chuckling softly:
"Teacher, Tequila really lives up to his reputation as a good friend of that good-for-nothing Rum. After working under you for so long, he hasn't learned a single trick of covert operations, and he even got bugged by a high school student who turned into an elementary school student. Tsk, how did such an idiot become a core member?"
"Because he's close to Rum—"
Vermouth emphasized what Natsume had said, indicating that this was the reason, and then continued:
"When Tequila joined the organization, they didn't have that many talented people, so he was already considered quite good."
"hehe"
"This world is truly beyond saving!"
Xia Ye sneered. Seventeen years ago, when Rum killed Haneda Koji, he actually left a death message that would expose Karasuma Renya's identity. If it were any other member of the organization, he would probably have been silenced long ago. However, Rum not only did not suffer any punishment, but he is still the second-in-command of the organization.
This is certainly not because he is particularly outstanding.
Rather, it was because his father was the previous Rum who had a close relationship with Karasuma Renya.
In other words.
Rum is a top-tier black kid!
"If you're involved in a criminal organization and still have to rely on nepotism, I think the organization is doomed!"
"Why do you care so much?"
Vermouth, being an elder of the organization, was annoyed by Xia Ye's mockery and retorted irritably:
"Why haven't I seen you so concerned about the organization before?"
"besides--"
"Where's Conan? How is he?"
I just heard his voice—
"Conan, um, he got kicked pretty hard by Tequila. It looked like it was quite a hard kick. Seeing him grimacing, I felt a little sorry for him!"
Xia Ye's lips curled up, adding fuel to the fire.
"..."
Vermouth remained silent for a long time.
Xia Ye guessed that right now Sister Bei was weighing whether or not to let Tequila die. How dare she kick her own son? She must have a death wish!
however--
Vermouth was still quite rational; she was actually thinking about something else entirely:
"He went off alone again?"
"Yes~"
Xia Ye glanced at the corner where Tequila and Conan had disappeared, and said softly with a smile in her eyes:
"They haven't told anyone yet, and they don't even seem to be calling the police. If we just leave it like this, we'll soon see a scene of black-clad elementary school students battling the black-clad organization. To be honest, I'm quite looking forward to it!"
"Stop making trouble!"
Vermouth was somewhat worried:
"No matter how advanced his equipment is, he's still just a child. How could he possibly beat Gin and Vodka? Their guns aren't just for show. You'd better bring him back right away!"
"Bringing him back now probably won't do any good. I can't watch him 24/7. He already knows so much about the organization; he's not going to stay put!"
Xia Ye wasn't just making things up.
Conan's recklessness has been a recurring theme throughout more than a thousand episodes.
In the original storyline, the death of Makoto Asai in the Moonlight case had a profound impact on him, making him more gentle when solving cases.
however--
In the showdown with the Black Organization.
Apart from Akemi Miyano, who died young, the Red Team has basically had no important figures die.
So Conan may seem terrified of the Black Organization on the surface, but he doesn't actually take it seriously at all. Gin, on the other hand, almost becomes a comedic character later on. If nothing unexpected happens, he simply won't be able to change this mindset!
"Then what do you think we should do?"
Vermouth knew that stopping Conan was only a temporary solution, and seeing that Natsume seemed to have some ideas, she asked.
"Hmm, we can act out a play—"
Xia Ye's lips curled into a playful smile as she explained with a bright smile:
"I'll bring Conan back to buy some time, teacher. You can take this opportunity to contact Yukiko and come up with a great script. Then we can give Conan a good talking-to and show him how serious the consequences of his recklessness can be. That way, he'll naturally be more cautious in the future. What do you say, teacher?"
"You have a point!"
Vermouth understood and agreed with Natsume's idea. As for the script, it was also very simple for her and Yukiko.
"I'll contact Yukiko right away!"
"Okay~".
