Moreover, her family background is actually better than most people's, and she is unwilling to compete with those who really need the money for a spot.

Sonoko blinked: "Ran, you can give it a try. Maybe you won't get accepted."

"...So you're planning to do it behind closed doors, right?"

"No, I didn't..." Sonoko turned her head away guiltily, then immediately turned back, gritting her teeth and saying, "Then Ran, you should write an IOU. After you start working, I will definitely come to collect the debt every day!"

"Oh, Sonoko, that's not what I meant."

Xiaolan still expressed her desire to support herself, adding at the end, "Besides, I haven't made up my mind yet."

Although she clearly had her own intentions when she said that.

"That's it..."

Sonoko immediately began to think of an easy and lucrative job in her family that she could reasonably hand over to Ran, one that Ran wouldn't refuse...

"Xiao Lan, I have a favor to ask you."

Ying Sheng walked in from the outside.

Sonoko looked up in surprise. "No way, you're here again?!"

Chapter 175: Another Simple Deduction by Ying Sheng

Hotaru didn't have Akemi Miyano's contact information, so he called Shiho Miyano directly.

The call couldn't be connected.

He called Gin again, dialed the number, and asked for Miyano Akemi's address. Gin assumed he was just bored and really wanted to go and harass Miyano Akemi for fun, and chuckled softly.

"There's no need for further trouble. That woman is determined to die. You just need to carry out Itakura Taku's mission."

Ying Sheng was quite puzzled: "What about Miss Shirley? Does the officer not care at all?"

“Yesterday at noon, Miyano Akemi had a fight with Sherry on the phone and is now not answering Sherry’s calls. For Sherry’s sake, I’m willing to give her a chance, but since she’s so stubborn, there are rules of the organization to follow.”

"Oh, Miss Akemi is dead?"

"Not yet. She offered to pay money to buy her and Sherry's freedom. I told her it would cost one billion yen. She's probably planning to rob a bank right now."

"She died after delivering the goods?"

"if not?"

"Why can't we just lock her up? The organization doesn't need her for three meals a day. If she dies, Miss Shirley might get a shock and just delete the database and run away."

"She can't run away."

"What about her enthusiasm? Sir, if a researcher with unique skills wants to slack off, you can't just hold a gun to her head and force her to do experiments. Besides, her sister is dead. What if she gets discouraged and commits suicide too?"

Gin was silent for a few moments: "You value Sherry's research highly?"

Ying Sheng made no attempt to hide it: "In fact, I really want to experience the kind of drug modification that you think I've undergone but haven't actually done. What era are we living in? What's the point of being a natural person?"

madman.

Gin chuckled: "The organization is currently conducting experiments in this area, and you can participate."

"Does the organization have resurrection technology?" Ying Sheng asked.

"Ok?"

Gin narrowed his eyes slightly: "What do you mean?"

[Killing Intent +1]

Hotaru was slightly taken aback. Was Gin's mood really that unstable? Shouldn't he see a psychologist?

"What I mean is, if the organization doesn't have resurrection technology, I only have one life, so of course I'll wait until the modification technology is mature before proceeding. If the organization has resurrection technology, then it doesn't matter; I'll come over this afternoon to have the surgery, and it'll be a waste if I die."

Ying Sheng stroked his chin: "The officer's reaction was so strong, ouch—!"

"Your organization isn't actually researching how to resurrect the dead, are you? That's quite a high-level goal. Not bad, not bad at all, perfectly matching what you said before about your influence spanning the globe. So we're a powerful underworld tycoon with lofty ideals."

Gin remained silent for a few moments. Was his reaction very strong?

"call--"

Gin slowly exhaled a puff of cigarette smoke, his eyes deep and unfathomable, almost mistaking the person opposite him for a normal person again.

He reflected.

"Once you reach a high level in the organization, you will know what the organization is pursuing. Now, go and carry out your mission; you don't need to worry about anything else."

"Okay, but I have a sincere heart, officer. In modern society, professionals like Miss Shirley are highly valued."

"Shirley is important, but not as important as you think. I promise she won't die, that's all."

beep beep-

The phone hangs up.

This left Hotaru feeling rather helpless. What did it matter to him whether Sherry lived or died? He was just curious about those drugs and experiments he had never seen before, and he had also promised Shinichi Kudo something.

Although it doesn't matter if they can't be contacted directly, Ying Sheng really wants to bring the Six-Eared Macaque into the winery's sights. By using its strength against it, he might be able to find out something.

After all, the anonymous person had mentioned the name Shirley himself, and said that his goddess hated this person so much that she gritted her teeth.

Based on this, they should be forces hostile to the distillery.

Eh?

Ying Sheng pondered for a moment. Thinking about it, could the Six-Eared Macaque be coming for him?

Kiyoko still suffered an undeserved misfortune, but the breaking point wasn't Shinichi Kudo, but rather his side.

If that's the case, then there's a mole within the organization.

Moreover, his rank is not low; even Xiao Karami, who only joined a few days ago, has had his identity exposed.

Of course, Ying Sheng believes that this possibility is unlikely.

As far as he knows, there are quite a few peripheral members in the organization, and there's also the unreliable guy like Big Dog, who even Gin would meddle with, probably a codename member. Even if there are external forces eyeing the organization, who would bother a newcomer like him?

Speaking of external forces, if the drugs the organization is researching really involve reversing life and death, then it's no wonder that it attracted an FBI undercover agent.

Moreover, Shuichi Akai was just the cockroach that was discovered; who knows how many more were hidden in the shadows.

Honestly, things have suddenly become complicated.

Will he be the one who gets his water meter checked someday?

Amidst a flurry of random thoughts, a full-size city map of Beika Town suddenly popped into view.

Ying Sheng pinpointed the first location—the clothing store where Shinichi Kudo solved the case the day before yesterday afternoon.

At the dinner table the night before, Shinichi Kudo mentioned that Sherry had tripped up a criminal suspect for him, although it was later confirmed that he was just a voyeur with lustful thoughts but no courage to commit them.

Shinichi Kudo did not mention that Akemi Miyano was also there, but it is reasonable to assume that the two Miyano sisters were shopping together.

The second location is the Fusa Art Specialty Store.

If you draw a straight line across it, you can't see anything.

Then let's add a third location: the organization's underground research institute, which he went to at the address given to him by Gin last Saturday morning.

Connect the three locations A, B, and C to form a triangle. The included angle at the first location A is an obtuse angle of approximately 110°.

The fourth location was the hotel where Shinichi Kudo and his companion stayed the night before.

At that time, the Miyano sisters were quite drunk. Knowing the importance of Sherry, Hotaru could not simply leave them downstairs and ignore them. So he and Ran went upstairs to settle Shinichi Kudo and the Six-Eared Macaque.

He contacted Gin first, and only went upstairs with Ran after Gin's car appeared at the street corner.

Gin later said that Vodka took Akemi Miyano home, while he took Sherry back to the research institute.

Hotaru watched the direction Gin's car drove off in, and the direction matched the map.

So Akemi Miyano's address is probably not in this direction of travel, otherwise I could just give her a ride along the way.

First, subtract this part of the angle.

Furthermore, generally speaking, when two people agree to meet outside, the location they choose will usually be within the same distance. However, Sherry cares a lot about her sister and has the initiative in deciding whether to meet. Therefore, the meeting place is more likely to be closer to Miyano Akemi.

Point A is probably not their meeting point. Extend the line along BA, and tentatively set the left and right offset range at two kilometers.

Oh, and one more thing.

When did the two of them meet?

Since Sherry plans to confront Miyano Akemi at dinner, what about lunch? Does she think the timing is wrong?

Considering that Akemi Miyano is an adult and may have a job, could it be that she only took leave at noon?

Let's analyze her professional characteristics...

Chapter 176 Tragedy! The angel is about to fall into the abyss.

Ah…

This kind of thing doesn't seem to need any analysis at all; Gin's previous statement already gave a very clear direction.

Robbing a bank.

This can actually be considered a general term for crimes, without any special meaning. After all, whenever people talk about making money quickly, they often joke about robbing a bank.

The problem is that the word Gin added before this action was "planning".

It's not about preparing to rob a bank, but about planning to rob a bank. Although they sound similar, the latter seems to have more certainty.

Then consider Miyano Akemi's professional demeanor...

Hmm, I can't make any connection at all.

It's really inconvenient that this world doesn't allow you to view other people's social codes with higher-level permissions; he's gotten used to being lazy. As for subtle observations, unless you're someone who's been thoroughly immersed in the workplace, it's not that easy to spot them.

What if the other party likes to switch jobs?

What if the other party's outward appearance is a disguise?
