Xiaolan emerged from behind the pillar, glanced at Yingsheng, and couldn't help but sigh softly, "Staying up all night every night and thinking so much in your daily life, be careful not to die suddenly."
"Ha, people die every night, so what?"
"Living a life of debauchery and oblivion?"
"If one hears the Way in the morning, one can die in the evening."
Ying Sheng took off his mask and shook his head, saying, "The police really are the standard background figures. Their security is very lax. They probably think that the people being ambushed are bad guys, and the ambushers are naturally good guys. Their thinking is very simple."
"Just like what happened at the underground casino last time?"
"Pretty much. The police haven't even issued any arrest warrants for us. They're very casual about it." Ying Sheng yawned again and turned to walk out. "Don't let my current appearance as an outlaw fool you. I actually strongly support order. A knight-errant uses his martial arts to break the law. As long as the rules are violated, there is no distinction between good and bad."
"Discipline?"
Xiao Lan shook her head helplessly and followed after her: "So you only follow Xuan Tian's precepts and don't care about reality at all, right?"
"Of course not. They are very useful for reference. After all, I don't want to go to jail, so there are some things I should pay attention to."
"for example?"
"There are too many to list, for example... um... for example... cough cough, I'm actually a very law-abiding citizen, I was just joking before."
Xiaolan glanced sideways, looking disgusted: "Could it be that any random person who says something is some kind of pervert?"
"Anyway, I haven't done it, so what?"
"Hehe, so the Xuan Tian rules are so lenient?"
"The main thing is to awaken to one's true nature. Hmm, I've said that several times already. Anyway, in that world, if you want to fall, your status can drop below dust overnight, and your soul can become twisted like a maggot; if you want to ascend, you can become a god."
Xiaolan sighed softly: "No matter how you look at it, it sounds terrifying. No one can guarantee that they will always strive forward. Just one day of slacking off can ruin everything."
"It's not that extreme; there are mechanisms to tolerate mistakes, like social credit scores."
"Oh, how many points did Tian Shu get?"
"Zero points."
"..."
Xiaolan was speechless: "Let's save this kind of terrifying worldview for next time as a bedtime story. Shuiyue-kun, why don't you tell me about our next plan? What happens after we get to the research institute? Are we going to force our way in and rescue Miss Sherry, or what are we going to do?"
"You actually want to know what secrets Kudo and Cedar have, don't you?"
"...Yes, but you didn't tell me."
"Hmm... what do you think of Cedar's physical fitness?"
"She's more delicate than the average person, a slender girl, much more womanly than I am, almost like a noble lady from The Tale of Genji." Xiaolan's tone was quite dejected, but it immediately brightened up again. "Oh, right, she's also allergic to chili peppers."
Ying Sheng gave her a strange look: "What were you thinking about just now?"
Xiaolan patted her pocket and laughed, "I sensed its presence, and then it inexplicably occurred to me that The Tale of Genji is set in the Heian period, which is over a thousand years ago. I don't want to become a noble lady."
"Ha, is it just sour grapes?"
"I'm just not as good-looking as her, what can I do? Speaking of physical fitness, does Xuesong have some kind of secret about it?"
"What if I told you that her frail appearance was just a facade, and that she was actually in very good physical condition?"
"Eh?"
Xiao Lan was slightly taken aback: "Is it to make yourself more feminine? That's normal, what's wrong with that?"
"So, we still want you to experience it for yourself."
A chubby police officer was pacing around near the parking lot exit when Ying Sheng picked up a small pebble from the ground and threw it into the distance. Thud! The chubby officer looked in the direction of the sound and saw Ying Sheng and Xiao Lan quickly rushing to the back of a car behind him.
The chubby police officer turned around, scratched his head, and began patrolling towards the direction where he had heard the sound.
"...Is he an NPC?" Xiaolan asked blankly.
"Hiss—could he have discovered us?" Ying Sheng thought to himself.
"They found us and then left?"
"Do you understand the self-discipline of NPCs? If you don't learn to turn a blind eye, what if you get silenced?"
"..."
Walking onto the street, getting into a taxi, and driving smoothly all the way, Xiaolan finally fully understood that saying:
"Japanese police are nothing but tax thieves."
"You're only happy when he chases you for three blocks, right?" Ying Sheng laughed. "So, Xiao Lan, why don't you try to take the professional exam in the future? That way, you can not only become a tax thief, but also..." He leaned closer to her ear and whispered, "...colluding with officials and criminals."
Ran rolled her eyes at him: "What strange things are you saying? Where's Shinichi? What secrets does he have?"
Hotaru shook his head: "That's something I can't say. By the way, were you with Suzuki-kun this afternoon?"
"No, she went back to school. Why are you asking her?"
I miss her.
"...Sonoko is a very good person, you mustn't go and ruin her."
"Hey~~ I'm going to take a nap."
"You're probably thinking about all sorts of things right now, which is why you're not feeling energetic."
"To be honest," Ying Sheng said, closing his eyes and tapping his ears, "I'm hearing everything around me right now. When there are too many people talking, my head is about to explode."
On the other hand, Akemi Miyano is repeatedly apologizing:
"I'm so sorry, Miss, we really can't process the service you requested."
"Huh? Are you kidding me? I'm a VIP, a VIP! Damn it, are you looking down on me?"
Hua Ying hopes to be unreasonable.
Hotaru really wanted to shut this guy up, but the reason he let her go was to rob a bank. Changing the plan before some steps were completed risked exposing Kiyoko.
Honestly, why does Miyano Akemi have to live? If Hope could just kill her cleanly and decisively, the world would be a much better place.
On the other side, Masayo Aida is comforting a child:
“Mr. Mori, I won’t be back for a while. The number for Sanmai-ya is on the business card by your bedside. You can order whatever you want to eat. Yes, they will deliver it to the hospital entrance, and the caregiver will pick it up for you.”
Why do you still dare to eat at Sanmai-ya? Don't you learn your lesson after testing positive for urine once?
By the way, it seems like nobody noticed this. Good heavens, what exactly are they investigating?
Is the focus entirely on hallucinations?
But he changed the key prop last night, okay?
Ugh, so boring.
By the way, I can't hear Shinichi Kudo's voice here. He must have gone to the research lab. I did hear Sherry's phone call earlier.
"Ms. Shiho, what can I do for you?"
On the third monitoring channel, Shinichi Kudo's words came through.
Finally, some fun is happening.
Chapter 195 Gin: A person can live without a heart! (Gluttony)
Why did Ying Sheng continue to act so recklessly after discovering the hidden earphone in Vermouth's ear canal?
Why was he so sure that Vermouth hadn't heard anything when Gin was attacked?
He had obviously done something underhanded beforehand.
The earphones Vermouth is wearing now are not the same ones she used to have.
The real device is with Hotaru, and together with the devices placed elsewhere, it serves as a relay station, allowing Hotaru to directly monitor both Vermouth and Gin.
However, Gin was mostly out of contact, so he didn't hear much from him.
A little useful information...
Ying Sheng had specifically asked Qing Zi to mention Kaito Kid, hoping to increase her credibility with such details, but Vodka completely ignored it.
As for Kaito Kid's ability to disguise himself, Hotaru certainly knew that, but what use was it? He couldn't find where the other person was.
It's impossible that it really has anything to do with Yusaku Kudo, Vodka really has a wild imagination.
And even if we find him, he has no relation to him. Why should we hand over this food to him?
Coercion and inducement.
To get someone to share their knowledge fully, you have to use both sweet rewards and harsh measures to keep them firmly under your control.
Vermouth's feelings for Kudo are a good point to exploit. If she can be carefully cultivated to the point of unwavering devotion, then threatening Kudo's life at that time would probably be half the battle won.
As for the sweet date, isn't love and the great harmony of life that follows already a thing?
Of course, this is probably not enough.
So, doesn't she harbor a deep-seated hatred for the surname Miyano? Then let's hand over another person to her and let her do whatever she wants with them.
Hotaru is very interested in the drug that Sherry is researching, and Miyano cannot give up on it.
Therefore, it can only be another Miyano.
The reason why Akemi Miyano cannot die now is because she cannot die at the hands of Hanakage or Gin.
But come to think of it, she's such a weak and naive girl, and living in darkness; she could die at any moment. After this incident, we should protect her to prevent the plan from failing.
Of course, there is another person who needs protection: the real Vermouth.
Once the people in the organization confirm that she truly has a split personality, then Kiyoko Yukimatsu, one of her personalities, can occasionally be active in the sunlight.
The specific steps are a bit complicated to explain, but they're nothing more than a melodramatic tale involving dump trucks or amnesia.
Then, they'll use a clever trick to switch things out, leaving Vermouth to stay in the dark room.
As for Shinichi Kudo's feelings for Kiyoko back then, well, that's just an interesting side story.
Good heavens, poor Tom will be completely manipulated by her.
