Stay away from Conan.

Using her police identity, she was able to easily enter and exit the Kanagawa Prefecture Police Headquarters. Everything seemed to go smoothly, and Vermouth found out what she wanted to know.

Obviously, the conclusion of the investigation did not seem to be bad news for Vermouth, so Vermouth seemed to be in a good mood at the moment.

It's just a pity...

At this moment, Vermouth's slightly smiling expression changed subtly as a phone call came in.

Rum…

At this time, Rum called, and it seemed that Vermouth had a premonition and knew what the other party would say next.

but……

Because of the other party's status and position, in this situation, I can't make too many decisions. I still have to listen to what that person really wants to do.

So, just like that, Vermouth's mood changed drastically in an instant, and she began to smile as she answered the phone. Then, not surprisingly, Vermouth heard an electronic synthesized voice coming from the other end, which was obviously very urgent...

"Vermouth, how is the investigation into Gil going? How come you still have the time to do other things?"

As soon as she got on the line, Vermouth only heard the person on the other end of the phone questioning her in a voice that had been distorted by a device:

“The situation of those peripheral personnel, is that what you need to do now?

"If you can't complete this task, perhaps I should consider calling the others back!"

So, although there was a hint of threat in these words, for Vermouth, these situations were all expected by herself. She did not seem to be surprised by Rum's reaction. On the contrary, it could be said that these problems were all expected. Therefore, Vermouth replied calmly:

"Don't worry, Rum...

"I have basically figured out Keel's whereabouts. But if I want to search further, I'm afraid I'll need to send more people to investigate."

"So, in this case, of course I have to find enough people, right?

"In this case, if I can find enough manpower, then I can only look for suitable candidates among those guys, right?

"After all, we should be dealing with the FBI. If we don't have the ability, it will be meaningless. Naturally, I can only do it myself."

In this way, Vermouth naturally explained her behavior that was being accused by Rum——

After all, with Rum's eyes and ears, he would immediately know that I was contacting external personnel for some purpose.

In order to explain her own behavior, and also to connect it to the recent matter of searching for the missing Keel, Vermouth was actually very clear about it, so she naturally combined some of her spontaneous behaviors with the requirements of the mission itself, in order to hide her true purpose.

In this way, Vermouth cannot be said to be unconfident about the development of this matter. After all, Vermouth herself is very clear about the matter of finding Gil, and it must be related to Conan and the others. So for this reason, Vermouth does not intend to be too radical in completing this task immediately.

Moreover, even if Kiel was bribed and defected by the FBI, the impact on the organization would not be too significant. On the contrary, if Kiel was searched for in a high-profile manner and too much manpower was mobilized, the other party might find him.

What's more...

To be honest, I am the one taking the initiative, right?

Kil's disappearance must have been the work of the FBI. After taking control of Kil, the FBI must have known that the organization would not just sit there and do nothing. They were also on guard against a sudden attack by the organization to bring Kil back.

However, if they don't take any action, they will be the ones who will be anxious... Therefore, instead of launching a large-scale operation immediately after Kiel's disappearance, which happened to coincide with the period when the FBI was most vigilant, it would be better to continue delaying and wait until the FBI has cleaned up the mess so that the matter would not be linked to him, and then there is no rush to take it slowly.

In fact, as long as the matter of Kiel continues to drag on, for Vodka and the others...

In that incident, the doubts against them became more difficult to resolve.

And now, due to various considerations, Gin and his companions were sent abroad by Rum to perform tasks, temporarily away from the situation in Japan. This gave him enough autonomy, so of course, he did not want such days to end soon...

What's more, this is also in line with that person's thoughts!

Thinking of this, Vermouth kept a calm smile on her lips——

After all, to be honest, who would know the purpose of that person better than himself...

——"Really? Then I hope you can give a clear result as soon as possible! Otherwise..."

So, after listening to Vermouth's explanation, Rum on the other end of the phone could only say something that was of no use to Vermouth.

Then Rum hung up the phone.

Vermouth was a bit casual about this.

Anyway, it's Rum who's anxious, not me...

From the current situation, we basically know that Kiel should be injured, and the FBI has probably transferred her to a hospital, but...

It is not easy to find out where exactly he is. It is impossible to find Keel's whereabouts through an open investigation with the FBI's means. So naturally, after having a rough range, the only thing left is to send out trustworthy people to slowly explore and investigate secretly...

However, this process will probably not end soon!

and so……

I have plenty of time to deal with some personal matters, such as...

……

"You are so brave. You let him take the antidote and show up in front of everyone. Don't you worry that if something goes wrong, we will not show mercy!"

Tokyo Metropolis and the observation deck of Tokyo Tower are bustling with people.

And in this crowded place, there were two figures, each of them wearing seemingly simple disguises, leaning on the edge of the observation tower, whispering these words.

In response to this, Gao Yuan, who came as agreed, simply wore a hat and sunglasses, and listened to the woman wearing a large sun hat, who was pretended by Vermouth, saying these words directly.

Therefore, Gao Yuan avoided being too concerned about this matter.

After all, this meeting with Vermouth was proposed by Vermouth. Since the previous contact methods were not interrupted, after seeing the message conveyed by Vermouth, the two met again in this way in a crowded public place after a long time.

In the end, I didn’t expect Vermouth to know… (End of this chapter)
