In the nightmare, Gin pointed a gun at Winnet's head and shot her, saying something about her favorite color, which was chilling.

The bright rose color is a thing of the past. She now prefers soft colors, which are represented by Wynette and her sister. With them, she can continue her current life comfortably and peacefully - even if it is not stable and full of lies.

She thought about it as she placed her bag on her seat and prepared to open the textbooks she would need for her first class.

"Haihara-san!"

She turned her head and saw Mitsuhiko and Genta walking towards her.

"This is the game software I borrowed last time. Please tell the doctor that the game designed this time is beyond my imagination." Mitsuhiko handed over the cartridge and said happily.

"Okay, I'll tell him."

Xiao Ai replied that she felt she had neglected the doctor recently, but he himself probably didn't realize it. Instead, he felt that the house was more lively with the visit of Winnet and her sister - he even got a little fatter.

I need to ask the doctor to control my diet, she thought.

Mitsuhiko and Genta were discussing the sound effects of the game. Halfway through, Ayumi shouted at the window in the classroom, "Come and see!" Ayumi pointed at the window, "It's snowing outside again!"

The snow melted very quickly in the past two days. It is rare for Tokyo to have continuous snowfall like this. When she heard the word "snow", Xiao Ai recalled the contents of her nightmare, because the incident also happened in the snow, and bright red blood splattered all over the ground. Her expression became slightly terrified, and then she comforted herself by saying that Winnet was much stronger than Gin and no one in the organization could match her, but she was not so sure. Although Winnet had a fierce reputation, she was thin and the members of the organization mostly acted alone. Xiao Ai felt that Winnet's strength was limited, and even she could not be all-round.

As she was brainstorming, her arm was pulled, startling her.

When I looked up, it was Ayumi smiling.

Seeing that she was slow to respond, Ayumi took the initiative to come over and pull her, "Habara-san, hurry up too, let's go to the window and watch the snow together."

She was a little emotional and needed to vent, but seeing the sincere Ayumi and the others who came to greet her, she still maintained her usual demeanor. She felt Conan's annoying gaze, and she chuckled, "I just feel like I'm about to catch a cold, and I'm a little worried. I don't want to infect you."

Hearing that she had a cold, the trio felt relieved. Ayumi smiled and pushed Ai, saying that she would take her to the health room.

After a day of classes, Xiao Ai still felt uneasy. Maybe she should be the one to give the amulet. Maybe Winnet's situation is far more dangerous than hers. After the last incident in the swamp, this thought became stronger. Of course, it's not just Winnet, but also the current residence and the children she lives with.

Conan noticed her absent-minded state early in the morning. On the way home from school, he kicked the football into the air to attract her attention and said, "You are still worried about being discovered. Don't worry, people generally don't believe or even think about things like taking medicine to shrink your body. If you don't want to be exposed, just play the role of a child well."

She didn't answer.

"Don't worry. If anything happens, I will help you find a solution," he added.

She felt that his idea was too naive. Even Winnett could not fight against the organization alone. He really thought the organization was too simple, so he did not pay enough attention to keeping his identity confidential.

But even if you pay attention to it, it may not go unnoticed.

She rubbed her temples, trying not to think about the negative extrapolations.

She looked at him expressionlessly: "I should be the one telling you these things. Didn't you reveal your identity to that Osaka detective? Even if he is trustworthy, the fewer people who know about it, the better."

As she spoke, she suddenly froze.

Right in front of her, there was a familiar car parked. It was Gin's Porsche 356A. Having ridden in it several times, she would not easily recognize the mistake.

Conan saw her expression and asked, "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with that black Porsche?"

Seeing that Xiao Ai didn't answer, he looked around the car and muttered, "Porsche 356A, this is an antique car from fifty years ago, and the owner doesn't seem to be sitting in it... I never thought that there are still people driving this kind of antique car. I've only seen it in books and on TV."

"Gin... Gin's car is this model."

When he heard Xiao Ai's whisper, his expression suddenly became sinister. The figure of the black-blond man who gave him the drug appeared in his mind.

Conan immediately took out his mini phone to contact the doctor, asking him to take the things to the intersection of Beika No. 4 Road. His tone was urgent and unquestionable.

Xiao Ai looked at him coldly, "What do you want to do?"

“I couldn’t miss this opportunity.”

"But this will also involve Professor Agasa."

"No, I just asked him to help get something... and I won't leave any loopholes."

He exuded a detective's confidence that was particularly convincing.

After seeing Winnet's performance, Ai realized that criminals can become detectives, and detectives are also the best criminals.

She said nothing, observing her surroundings secretly. Even in this state, she did not want to be discovered by Gin and others, which would add burden to Winnet. Although she disliked Kudo's adventure, she did not stop him, because he would not listen to her advice, and words were meaningless. After a while, the doctor arrived by car and handed Conan the iron hanger and wrench.

"What are you going to do with these things?"

Conan used a wrench to slightly change the shape of the hanger and ran towards the car.

"What are you going to do?" she asked.

Conan quickly used a clothes hanger to poke through the gap in the glass window and opened the car door. "Of course, they are installing a transmitter and a bug in this car."

"But we can't be sure that this is his car..."

She followed him into the car, and was even more certain because the interior layout had not changed. She raised her head slightly and saw through the window that Gin and Vodka were standing on the street across the street. Gin lit a cigarette and was walking towards her.

"Kudo, look across the street."

Conan frowned, quickly closed the car door, and pulled Ai to hide behind the car. However, the transmitter and the bug had already been installed. Although the footprints could not be dealt with, it was not surprising to be watched because the car model was rare.

……

349 Memorial Service

Gin and Vodka crossed the road defiantly and came to the Porsche.

Gin held a cigarette in his mouth and glanced at the edge of the car. There were dense footprints near the door. "Why are the footprints next to the car so messy?"

Vodka chuckled and replied, "It's probably passers-by who come here to admire it. Brother's car is rare."

Gin took a quick look at the footprints, which were very new and small, and thought that some children might be curious about them. He chuckled and said, "This German tree frog is quite famous."

Gin got into the car, not noticing Conan and Ai hiding behind the car. Vodka started the car and drove on the road to Haido Town. Not long after, Gin's cell phone rang.

He answered the phone and heard a rather elderly voice.

"Gin?"

Gin responded, "Yes, it's me. How's the situation over there?"

"The target has not been reached yet. Is the information accurate?" he asked.

Gin sneered, "What? The person hasn't arrived yet? Ha, why worry? The target will show up at the Haido Hotel at six o'clock in the evening. He doesn't know yet that today is his memorial service."

“The police followed.”

"The important thing is that we were ordered to kill him before the police got a hold of him. If anything, you can use the drug if you want, but don't mess it up, Pisco."

Gin hung up the phone and put it in his arms. At this moment, he caught a glimpse of a hair between the seat and the door. He picked it up and looked at it. The hair was brown.

Vodka felt the seat shake, and he saw Gin groping in the car, "Brother, what's wrong with you?"

Gin pulled his hand out from the gap between the seats, holding a small black bead held together with chewing gum, and the corners of his mouth, which was holding a cigarette, were raised.

Vodka continued to ask: "Brother, what is this?"

"I think it's a transmitter and a bug."

Gin said as he squeezed the gum and crushed it into powder. He came to a conclusion from the brown hair - Shirley took the initiative to approach them. She was a betrayer, but it was touching.

Gin asked Vodka to drive the car to the Haido Hotel. He was not going to intervene in this matter. Vermouth was also a backup, and it was said that Abis might also come, so he didn't need to appear. But he guessed that Shirley would definitely come here because she heard what he said on the phone. She must feel unbearable to use the medicine she developed as a weapon to kill people.

He got out of the car, and it was already dark. He called Pisco before six o'clock, "Hello, it's me."

"Anything else you need?"

"You know Shirley, right?"

"The scientist who developed the drug?"

"Yes, that's right. It's Shirley, the woman who betrayed the organization. She should have gone there now. If you don't know what she looks like, go to the organization's database to look for her. I'll go meet you after I check that there's nothing else in the car except the bug and the transmitter."

"Are you sure she will come?"

"Yes, it can't be wrong. That woman will definitely go there, and she will definitely want to investigate the matter of the medicine... Of course, whether to use that useless famous detective is up to you. In short, if we catch that woman as soon as she shows up, we will know what she looks like."

"How should we deal with it? Is it okay to just clear it out?"

"No problem. Even if she loses everything below the head, it won't matter."

QQ: 914 903 798

Vodka naturally heard the conversation between Gin and Pisco. He seemed a little worried. He closed the trunk of the car he had just checked and said, "Brother, I heard that Vermouth is here too. Will she bring Ablis to the scene as well? Considering the relationship between Ablis and Shirley, wouldn't it be bad if we didn't tell her?"

Gin had no hesitation in thinking, "Maybe Pisco would tell her... Well, even if she knew about Shirley, it would just make the situation even weirder. Maybe she would make Shirley's body into some weird shape."

"Brother, aren't you worried that they will have any sympathy for Shirley?" He paused for a moment, "They are all women, maybe..."

Gin shook his head in denial. Although he couldn't see what Vermouth was thinking, he could sense that she was full of malice towards Shirley, and Abris had always treated Shirley as a toy, and now this toy could only show its value if it was disassembled. With her sick mind, she might want to keep this toy in a relatively perfect state - to create a scene that could appear in a horror movie. He was too lazy to correct the mistake. If Abris found her in advance, it would be the same if she was left to deal with it.

"No," Gin got back into the car and lit a cigarette with the cigarette lighter, "Women's sympathy varies from person to person."

……

"What should we do now? The current situation is very unfavorable to us. The transmitter and the bug have been destroyed. We can't continue tracking. Moreover, the chewing gum you used is in their hands. If they take it for testing..."

"Gray, don't worry." Conan interrupted her, "I have destroyed the tooth shape. The most they can do is to find out my blood type from my saliva. I have wiped off all the fingerprints on the car."

"In that case, we should turn around immediately and try to get away from their car." Xiao Ai, hugging her shoulders and crossing her legs, shrank back a little uncomfortably. "It's too dangerous to continue driving behind their car like we are now. People like them are extremely sensitive to the targets they are tracking."

"it is good!"

Conan replied, but as she expected, there was a but - he was going to the Haido Hotel that Gin called about.

"They are planning to have Pisco assassinate someone. Now that I know the plan, I have to stop them from continuing this killing. It's still not too late to get to the hotel."

Xiao Ai smiled disdainfully, "Really? Then you do have a sense of justice. But I'm different from you. I'm not interested in abstract things like justice, and I don't think traveling all the way to that place of trouble will help the matter."

"Well, that's what I planned from the beginning. Since they already know your rejuvenated appearance, taking you there now would be like walking into a trap. I think you should just wait for me in the car with the doctor. No matter how bad the situation is, I have to get the medicine out."

The key words in Conan's words caught her attention.

Xiao Ai was shocked, "What medicine are you talking about?"

"Gin just said on the phone that it's okay if the other party wants to use that drug. From what I see, that drug is APTX-4869, the poison that shrinks our bodies."

At this point, Ai finally couldn't keep calm. The number of prototypes was actually limited. After she left the organization, it was difficult to simply use complex data to replicate it. It wasn't that it had been successfully developed. Only killers like Gin thought it existed as a useful poison. When it came to this drug she developed herself, it was hard to pretend nothing had happened when she thought about how they were still killing people.

She thought, even if Gin saw through Kudo's trick, he would probably think it was done by an organization that was hostile to the organization, and would not suspect her as a traitor. As a traitor, he would naturally run as far away from the organization as possible, and would not take huge risks to turn against the organization. This was actually a blind spot, she thought, she had to follow him, in case he really wanted to die.

So, she didn't wait in the car, but followed Conan into the hotel.

"Please, didn't you say you weren't interested?"

"Do you think I like coming here? I'm the one who created it. Don't forget what I looked like the last time you called me a murderer."

"Then you should be careful. I believe they must have received the news and know that the person who installed the transmitter is coming. I don't want to be discovered by them."

"It's not that serious. You've already wiped out all the evidence. At best, they will just treat this as a spying and prank by a hostile organization... But then again, are you sure it's this venue?"

Xiao Ai asked him, the Haido Hotel is a large and complex building. At the same time, different things are happening on different floors. She observed the venue and was surrounded by people wearing black clothes.

Conan nodded and stopped in front of a sign that read: In mourning for film director Sakamaki Akira.

"Gin mentioned the memorial service on the phone. The guy called Pisco and the target they mentioned should all be here," he pushed open the door, "Okay, let's not talk any more. It's time to go in."

Ai was a little troubled. She felt that she should have discussed this with Winnett before doing this, but it seemed that she was too dependent on her. She looked around. Since it was a memorial service, everyone was wearing black clothes, which was exactly the same color as the favorite color of the people in the organization. It was impossible to tell who was Pisco just by looking at his appearance. However, she still knew some of him, such as he was a person of considerable social status and should be quite old. According to rumors, he knew her parents, which meant that he was at least of the same generation or older than her parents.

Maybe she had already appeared in their sight. She was still troubled by the nightmare before, thinking that Gin or someone from the organization would suddenly appear behind her and point a gun at her - even in such a public environment, they would still do something similar.

Suddenly she felt something on her back. Xiao Ai turned back in fear, her eyes wide open, but the person who came was just a hotel staff member, who thought she was someone's child who was separated from her parents. Only then did she realize that something was wrong with her. Even if the organization hadn't noticed her yet, it was only a matter of time before she would be noticed.

Conan, who also noticed her unnatural look, came over to help her, talked to the staff, and pretended to be a child.

"Your condition is a bit abnormal, but you had to come along..." Conan complained.

Ai explained that she had a nightmare recently, but did not give any details.

The two re-examined the people around them, and Conan sighed, "There are so many famous people here." Ai knew more than him. In the crowd, she could tell the female writer who won the Naoki Prize, the investor of professional baseball, the famous music producer, the super popular American movie star, and the professor of a famous university. Even the corporate giants came.

She looked back at Conan, "And then, have you figured out who Pisco's target is?"

"Well, Gin mentioned on the phone that the man will arrive around six o'clock, and he is also the person the police are eager to arrest tomorrow."

"Who is that?"

"It can only be the guy who was surrounded by reporters at the door."

"I see."

After hearing what Conan said, she also remembered that the person being questioned by the reporter was the congressman who had appeared on TV and in newspapers and was involved in bribery. People like this would indeed be employed by the organization, but they were often only used for a short period of time because they were very confused about the situation.

"Since Gin said that he would kill him before he was caught, then he should be a member of the organization."

"We can't be sure about that, but the truth will come out once he's arrested."
