AWB Chapter 725: The One You Think Of
Chapter 725: The One You Think Of
“No, no, I knew Chu Ming was a good kid the moment I saw him, hahaha…” Maori Kogoro was originally standing beside her with his hands and feet trembling because of his fear of heights. After Vermouth took off her sunglasses and saw her appearance clearly, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he took two or three steps over, grabbed Vermouth’s hand and shook it up and down, “I’m Maori Kogoro, the legendary detective. It’s an honor to meet you. If you have any commissions in the future, you can always come to me~”
"Dad, what are you doing?" Xiaolan, who was angry at Maori Kogoro's performance, dragged Maori Kogoro behind her and glared at him. Then she said to Vermouth a little embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, Miss Chris, in fact, it's better to say that he has been helping us than to say that we are taking care of Chu Ming. This thank you is really unworthy..."
"Wow, Sister Xiaolan, look at the beautiful scenery here~" Conan suddenly interrupted the conversation of several people, ran to the window, and spoke loudly in an exaggerated manner.
He wanted to get information from Vermouth, but he didn't want Vermouth to get information from Xiaolan.
Haibara Ai, who was hiding behind the children near the window, saw Vermouth walking towards the window step by step because of Conan's words, and her eyes flew towards Conan. She knew that Conan interrupted them because he didn't want Vermouth to get information from Xiaolan, but he couldn't just sell her out like this, right? ! !
And Brother Chu Ming, why did he suddenly appear with Vermouth this time?
Did the organization give him a new task?
But the woman, Vermouth, is insidious and cunning. When she was still in the organization, she heard a lot of news about Vermouth from Vodka. It is said that every time she goes on a multiplayer mission, her partners will always be killed for various reasons, including many code members.
Will it be dangerous for Brother Chu Ming to partner with her this time?
She was twisting the corners of her clothes in her hands in confusion, not noticing that the person she was worried about had walked up to her.
"What's wrong? Why are you so worried?"
With a warm palm covering her head, Huihara Ai came back to her senses from her daze, raised her head and looked at Chu Ming who was touching her head, with undisguised worry in her eyes: "Brother Chu Ming..."
Chu Ming touched her soft hair and felt it was nice, so he stroked it twice more: "Don't worry."
Huiyuan Ai's heart, which had been hanging in the air, strangely calmed down when she heard Chu Ming's three words. Her tense shoulders also slowly relaxed, her eyes full of dependence, and she replied softly, "Okay."
Xiaolan has always liked Sharon, and when she saw her daughter who is also a big star, she started chatting with Vermouth with sparkling eyes. Vermouth has always been very patient with her angels. She said this to Xiaolan with a smile, but she still divided her attention on Chu Ming and Haibara Ai.
I have to say that Granburch is really good at pretending. If she hadn't seen Granburch when he was crazy, she would never have thought that he could pretend to be so confusing. Looking at Shirley's expression, it seems that she has been completely conquered by Granburch. If Granburch asked her to follow her back to the organization to die the next moment, she probably wouldn't hesitate at all.
Wow, crazy people are indeed born actors.
Suddenly, she seemed to have noticed something. She put her palm on the floor-to-ceiling window glass and looked into the distance. Then her face changed slightly. She grabbed Xiaolan, who was still saying something happily, and dragged her behind a column. Just as she was about to speak, she felt as if she bumped into someone from behind. She turned her head and found that Chu Ming was holding Huihara Ai by the collar and had also shrunk behind the pillar. The small pillar blocked the figures of the four people.
"Eh? What's wrong?" Xiaolan was caught off guard and was a little confused.
Chu Ming looked at Vermouth who was protecting Xiaolan tightly by her side, and then looked at Conan who was still peeking out of the window, his eyes gradually becoming meaningful.
Look, the closeness and distance are now clearly distinguished.
"Wow--"
"Bam—"
"what--"
Vermouth was about to say something when suddenly, the sound of glass breaking and heavy objects falling to the ground was heard, and the people around her screamed.
"Someone is sniping, get down quickly!!!" Conan shouted to the people around him, searching for Xiaolan's trace. Now everyone was frightened and ran away, Xiaolan must not get hit and injured.
This thought came to an abrupt end when he saw Xiaolan being well protected by Vermouth. He looked at the people behind the pillar with some disbelief, and a little grief and anger surged in his heart.
It was obvious that these two people had discovered something early on, and they just left him at the window!
Chu Ming coughed twice when Conan looked at him. He was chatting with Huibara Ai at that time. When he felt someone pointing a sniper rifle at him, he just picked up the human shield next to him and hid in the cover. As a result, Vermouth protected Xiaolan, as if he was worried about Huibara Ai's safety and took people to hide with him...
Chu Ming took advantage of the situation and put Huiyuan Ai down, then touched her head and asked, "Are you not scared?"
Haibara Ai raised her eyes and quickly glanced at Vermouth, grabbed the corner of Chu Ming's clothes, shrank behind him, and shook her head.
Although he was a little angry, Conan was not a narrow-minded person. Seeing that everyone was fine, he felt relieved. He put on his glasses and zoomed in to take a closer look. Only then did he discover a figure holding a sniper rifle lying on a tall building in the distance.
Conan's heart sank suddenly and he subconsciously looked at Vermouth. Was she here today just because the organization had a sniper mission?
The tall building was not very close to here, and he could not think of anyone else except the sniper from that organization who could accurately kill the target from such a distance.
Chu Ming somehow understood Conan's eyes. He originally thought that the winery was taking the blame, but suddenly he remembered the sniper that Gin had just recruited. Among the people he wanted to kill, it seemed that there was indeed someone who died today...
Conan didn't watch upstairs for too long. He was used to being let off by Vermouth, so he didn't think about hiding it in front of her. He turned around and asked the doctor for the car keys, preparing to use the skateboard in the car to chase someone.
Chu Ming looked at his leaving back and Shiliang who followed him not far away, and lowered his head to meet the eyes of Huihara Ai. She looked at Vermouth who was whispering with Xiaolan and asked, "Brother Chu Ming, did you come with her to scout the place because of this mission?"
Chu Ming shook his head, not intending to cover up for Vermouth: "Yes and no, this mission has little to do with us, but she seems to like Xiaolan very much, so when she heard that Xiaolan would come, she insisted on coming with me."
Huihara Ai thought she might have heard it wrong: "Like? It's the one I was thinking of..."
Although Chu Ming didn't know which one he was thinking of, he still nodded vigorously without any guilt: "Yes! That's right! It's the one you think of!"
