Ke Xue: My standards for dating are not problematic!

Chapter 375 Vermouth: You really aren't picky!
Kitahara Natsuhiro, Ai, and Naomi left after saying goodbye to Kogoro Mouri.

A short while later, Kitahara Natsuhiro brought Naomi to his home.

She lived in a detached house, not an apartment. However, these detached houses were not ordinary; they were places where high-ranking officials and nobles lived.

However, for someone of Naomi's status, living in such a place is more than enough.

"Ai, would you like to stay at my house for the night?" Naomi said to Ai, then remembered something and looked at Kitahara Natsuyu: "Mr. Kitahara, you too."

“My house is quite big, and I live alone, so I’m a little scared.”

Upon hearing this, Ai refused without hesitation, but she didn't completely rule it out: "I'm sorry, my sister is waiting for me at home. She'll worry if I don't go back."

"But next time is fine. I'll bring some clean clothes next time, and that will be enough."

Actually, that's not the most important reason. The most important reason is that Kitahara Natsuhiro is also here.

If Kitahara Natsuhiro weren't here, she might have stayed here for the night.

But if Kitahara Natsuyu were there, it wouldn't work. After all, this guy is indiscriminate in his pursuit of women, as long as they are beautiful and of legal age, they are all within his hunting range.

Moreover, if you stay at Naomi's house, you can skip the hunting step and just pounce on her and tear her apart.

What? Ai and Naomi will be sleeping in one room tonight, and Kitahara Natsuhiro will be sleeping in another room.

That would be even better. Whether it's one or two, it's still going to happen, so why not just do it all? That would be even more interesting.

Kitahara Natsuhiro is absolutely capable of doing something like that.

At this moment, Kitahara Natsuyu suddenly rolled his eyes at Ai, his eyes filled with resentment, and muttered to himself, "Me, that kind of person? Ai really thinks too badly of me."

He believes in mutual consent and would never force anyone to do anything.

Besides, he had just met Naomi Algent, so how could he do something so rude, unless Naomi Algent had been drinking and took the initiative to throw herself at him?

But that's impossible; they don't drink alcohol at all, and they drink very little even beverages, focusing on health.

Therefore, Ai's idea is simply nonsense and is completely damaging to his reputation.

Fortunately, these were Ai's true feelings, and no one else knew them.

"I see." Naomi Algent was a little disappointed, but she quickly cheered up: "Then be careful on your way back, and please give my regards to Ayami."

Ai said, "Okay, I'll tell my sister. You can go back now."

"Ah."

Naomi Aljene nodded and walked towards her home, but she kept turning back every three steps, clearly reluctant to leave.

But in the end, she returned to her own home.

When the lights in the room were turned on and the windows were opened, she saw Kitahara Natsuyu and Ai through the window, and then the two of them waved and left.

"Ai, were you thinking something really outrageous just now?" On the way back, Kitahara Natsumi squinted at Ai with a somewhat unfriendly look.

Hearing this, Ai covered her mouth and laughed: "Oh my, it seems you heard what I was thinking. That's right, that's exactly what I was thinking."

"You've always been this kind of person; you're a little indiscriminate in your choices."

"What do you mean by being so hungry you'll eat anything?" Kitahara Natsuyu said with a smirk, "I'm a very picky person. I have absolutely no interest in women who aren't good-looking or have a bad figure."

"I have very high standards."

"Besides, your comment about being so hungry that you'd eat anything included both you and Mingmei. You're even talking about yourself!"

Hearing this, Ai didn't care at all: "So what if I scolded you? Besides, scolding yourself doesn't really count as scolding."

"And is Naomi within your hunting range?"

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsumi answered without hesitation, "Sure."

"A mixed-race foreigner, very beautiful, with a great figure, and very young. She's highly educated, a good girl, and exactly my type."

To be fair, Naomi is very pretty, he thought!
After all, we've already traveled through time, so of course we need to face our own hearts; any hesitation is just hypocrisy.

He can be a true villain, but he cannot be a hypocrite.

He will definitely touch the people he can, but he will absolutely not touch the people he cannot. He still has his bottom line!

"See?" Ai shrugged. "I was just worried that you'd go to the bathroom again tonight, and then when you got back to your room you'd say you went to the wrong room, and that'd just go along with it."

“Slander! You’re completely slandering me! I’m going to sue you!” Kitahara Natsuyu immediately raised his hand in protest.

This is a complete slander against his character; it's absolutely outrageous.

Is he that thirsty?
“Go!” Ai said, “Remember to make Eri Kisaki your lawyer and Reiko Kujo your prosecutor, that way we can make sure you get arrested!”

Eri Kisaki: Oh no, I've become Zhang Wei?!
"Fine, fine, Ai, you're so vicious! You're finished!" Kitahara Natsuyu pointed at Ai and said, "Even the gods and Buddhas can't save you. Today, you'll have to shed blood here!"

Hearing this, Ai rolled her eyes at him: "How old are you? Why are you saying such things?"

"Fine, I'll give you something in return, consider it my compensation!"

The next second, Ai grabbed Kitahara Natsuyu's collar, pulled him slightly, and kissed him on the lips.

But Kitahara Natsuhiro had anticipated this, and immediately grabbed Ai and started kissing her passionately.

Because it's a place where wealthy people live, there aren't many people on the streets, and there won't be any spectators.

Although there were few spectators on the street, the residents of a single-family apartment not far away saw the whole scene.

And this audience member was Naomi.

After all, Kitahara Natsuhiro and Ai haven't gone far.

"They're so bold!" Naomi was a little shy, but she didn't cover her eyes. She had seen many similar scenes in Europe.

However, she was originally very innocent; she still had her first kiss.

After all, in foreign countries, some are overly open and some are overly conservative, so foreigners are not necessarily promiscuous.

"But Ai loves her boyfriend very much, and Mr. Kitahara loves Ai very much too. I wonder when they will get married. I must be a bridesmaid and catch the bouquet." Naomi sincerely wished Ai and Kitahara Natsuyu well.

But in reality, Kitahara Natsuhiro will not marry Haibara Ai, or even any woman.

Therefore, Naomi's idea is almost impossible to realize.

Kitahara Natsuhiro and Ai kissed for several minutes before separating.

"Seriously, this is the street, and you're acting like this? You have no shame!" Ai leaned against Kitahara Natsuyu, blushing as she patted his chest a few times, but without any force.

Hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu laughed: "What's there to be afraid of? Anyway, Naomi is the only viewer. So what if she sees it? It won't hurt her."

"Besides, when the three of us were together, you saw it, and even..." At this moment, Ai interrupted Kitahara Natsuyu, covering his mouth with both hands: "Idiot, don't tell everyone!"

"Okay, I won't say anything more, let's go back!"

"Ok!"

Ai let out a long sigh of relief, paused for a moment, and then took Kitahara Natsuyu's hand, and the two walked hand in hand into the distance.

After seeing Kitahara Natsumi and Ai leave, Naomi went back to her room, took a shower, and then started writing in her diary!

April 13th, sunny.
I finally met Ai, also known as Shiho Miyano, and we finally became friends. I'm so happy! I finally have a way to repay Ai's kindness.

However, she doesn't need me to do anything for the time being, but I will keep waiting until Ai needs me.
A short while later, Kitahara Natsuhiro brought Ai home.

At this time, their room lights were still on, and Akemi Miyano had not yet gone to sleep.

"Why don't I go upstairs and sit for a while? I have tomorrow off." Kitahara Natsuyu said with a smile, looking at the still-lit room.

"No way!" Ai refused Kitahara Natsuyu outright: "My sister and I have some things to think about, and besides, if you go up now, you won't get the reward!"

"Oh, I see. Then forget it." Kitahara Natsuyu wasn't in a hurry, after all, there was a woman waiting for him at home.

And this woman was none other than Yoko Okino.

Yoko Okino has been resting and hasn't been working during this period.

So if they didn't succeed with Ai Haibara, they'll definitely succeed with Yoko Okino.

After all, Yoko Okino is gentle and weak, and she is easily persuaded.

"Okay, you should go back now!" Xiao Ai said with a smile. "I'm going to sleep soon too. I'm going shopping with my sister tomorrow."

"Do you need me to come with you?"

"No need. We're going to buy clothes. What if you go into the fitting room and try to touch me inappropriately?"

She doesn't reject these things; in fact, she quite likes them—they're exciting enough. But it would be troublesome if outsiders found out; she doesn't want to be on the news.

Of course, Kitahara Natsuyu wouldn't let anyone else know; even if they did, he'd just brainwash them and be done with it.

"No, I'm a very honest and upright person when I'm out in public!"

"Honest and dutiful? It really sounds a bit strange coming from you."

“Prejudice, that’s prejudice!” Kitahara Natsuyu smiled. “Alright, it’s getting late, I should head back.”

"Well, be careful on the road."

"understood."

Soon after, Kitahara Natsuyu and Ai parted ways and went home.

However, shortly after Kitahara Natsuhiro left, his phone rang.

The person who called at that moment was none other than Vermouth.

"Vermouth, how come you have time to call me?" Kitahara Natsuhiro asked as he walked home.

"Oh dear," Vermouth said, swirling her wine glass and crossing her legs, "I hope my call didn't disturb your nightlife!

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu laughed: "Nightlife? I don't have any nightlife right now. I'm still on my way back."

"Speak, what do you want from me? You're the kind of person who doesn't come to my door without a reason, or are you just lonely and want me to keep you company?"

Vermouth is different from other women; she is quite independent and not the kind of woman who can't live without a man.

“Yes, do you have time?” Vermouth said with a smile.

"Of course, I'll be there whenever you call!"

He's not a very busy person; he has plenty of time.

What? Yoko Okino? That's not important. Yoko Okino is injured and needs to rest. We'll let her off the hook tonight.

Of course, Vermouth's tone on the phone didn't sound like she wanted to spend the night with Kitahara Natsuhiro; she probably had some questions for him.

And this tone of voice—Vermouth, a woman who is inherently alluring, speaks in the same way.

But in front of outsiders, it's a completely different story.

"Alright, enough joking around." Vermouth smiled and didn't continue the topic. She had things to do tomorrow, and if she was late, Gin would probably throw a tantrum.

Once I'm done with everything, I'll go find Kitahara Natsuhiro to make some juice. I haven't done it in a while, and I'm really craving it!
"Go ahead, what do you want to ask me?" Kitahara Natsuhiro asked.

Upon hearing this, Vermouth said seriously, "Naomi Algent, this woman went to your store today, right?"

"And she's also good friends with Ai Haibara."

Upon hearing this, Kitahara Natsuyu immediately knew that someone in the organization had been following Naomi Algent and had witnessed everything.

"Yes, there is such a person. Is your organization targeting Naomi?"

"Naomi?" Vermouth said, "You're calling her that so affectionately. Is this her next target?"

"She's really good-looking, quite young-looking, is she your type?"

“Yes, I like all beautiful women, as long as they are adults,” Kitahara Natsuyu said.

“You really aren’t picky.” Vermouth shook her head. “That’s right, our organization is indeed keeping an eye on this woman.”

"She is developing an intelligent identification system that would be very useful for organizations, especially when it comes to eliminating certain individuals!"

In the movie, the Black Organization obtained this item and planned to investigate and eliminate certain individuals, but the plan was thwarted due to Vermouth's involvement.

"So, you want to bring this woman back to the organization? Or are you planning to assassinate her and take what's left unfinished?" Kitahara Natsuyu asked.

"It's unclear at the moment. We need instructions from those guys. I'm waiting for their orders."

"However, given the current situation, we should invite this woman to join our organization. If that fails, we may have to force her to join."

"We can't let too many people know about our existence; we can't be too high-profile."

“That’s what the boss said!” Vermouth said, then laughed.

The organization has been far too high-profile; it's completely unrelated to being low-profile.

"That's it"
