There was a moment of silence between them.
Amya kept her head down, reviewing documents without saying a word, while Violet, sitting opposite her, calmly sipped her coffee without uttering a sound.
After a while, until she finished her coffee, Violet finally got up.
"Your Highness, if there's nothing else, I'll be taking my leave now."
Amya remained silent, and Violet then left her seat and walked towards the door.
"and many more."
Just as Violet was about to reach the door, Amya suddenly called out to her.
Amy put the documents in her hand aside, slowly raised her head, and looked at Violet.
Anyway, thank you for this.
Upon hearing Amya's words, Violet turned her head, her gaze towards Amya somewhat complicated. After a moment of silence, she finally gave a faint smile.
"No need for thanks, consider it a small favor I did for a friend..."
At this point, Violet paused, sighed softly, and turned her head away from Amya's direction: "I wish you happiness."
After saying that, Vera opened the office door and walked away.
Amy didn't say anything more, just glanced at the news on her phone, then looked away and continued reviewing the documents in her hands.
The headline on Amya's phone news was:
Countess Violet publicly stated that the "man" was simply someone who came to Amya to sign documents; there was no mysterious man involved.

Chapter 383 Gin Under Attack
Japan, Mihana City.
At night, the streets are not as crowded as during the day, but there are still a few people walking by.
In front of the building.
Two men dressed in black, completely covered up, walked out of the building. Their faces were obscured by their black hats and collars, making it impossible to see their features.
Their strange attire attracted the attention of passersby, but no one dared to approach them and speak to them.
"Brother, why did that woman suddenly invite us here so late?"
The shorter man in black on the left spoke up.
"Shut up, Vodka!" Gin said coldly, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily. "Don't you think there's something wrong with the place around here?"
"Problem? What problem?" Vodka looked around, puzzled. Apart from the lack of passersby, there seemed to be nothing strange.
"That woman is never late..."
Gin spoke in a low voice, but the wariness in his eyes did not disappear.
His cold gaze swept over the people around him, as if trying to find something strange about them.
Of course, he didn't know that on the opposite rooftop, a gun barrel carrying the aura of death was slowly aimed at his head.
His slender fingers gripped the trigger, slowly pressing down, as if he were about to fire a fatal bullet into Gin's head below.
"Wang-"
A brown, curly-haired teddy bear suddenly appeared and bit Gin's leg.
The sharp pain made Gin frown immediately, instinctively lower his head, and raise his leg to swing it forcefully, trying to throw the wretched dog away.
It was at this moment that...
boom--
The glass at the building's entrance shattered instantly, as if struck by some terrifying force, breaking into countless fragments.
The sudden sound of shattering glass startled passersby, and chaos ensued.
Shooting!
Gin and his companion, who were extremely familiar with firearms, reacted instantly.
Ignoring the wretched dog, he immediately ducked down, trying to hide behind cover.
boom--
Another shot landed squarely on Gin's shoulder. The intense pain caused Gin to groan, and bright red blood seeped from his clothes.
"Big brother!"
Vodka reacted immediately and quickly helped Gin up as they ran into the building.
The gunfire continued.
bang bang bang-
Two more shots were fired in a short time. One shot hit the ground, and the other hit Gin's upper body again. The last shot hit Vodka's leg.
The continuous shootings brought the crowd to their senses, causing complete chaos.
People were lying on the ground, begging for mercy, running around in all directions, and some even took out their valuables and arranged them neatly. The scene was in complete chaos.
The chaos at the scene caused the sniper on the rooftop to lose his best angle. In addition, Vodka and Gin, despite their excruciating pain, ran into the building, which also caused the sniper to completely lose sight of them.
Without the slightest hesitation, seeing that the situation was hopeless, the sniper immediately crouched down, skillfully disassembled his weapon, hid in a cubicle to change his face and clothes, and left the rooftop, disappearing without a trace in no time.
The unrest at the scene continued.
No one noticed that the brown curly-haired teddy bear that had bitten Gin earlier had turned a few corners and entered a secluded street.
A bone was thrown in front of it.
"Go."
Upon seeing the bone, Teddy barked happily twice, then picked it up and disappeared without a trace shortly afterward.
"I never expected that Vermouth, one of the core members of the organization, would be interested in animal taming."
A gentle male voice came from the side.
Vermouth glanced at the newcomer and said, "After all, this phantom thief is so skilled in this area, as his opponent, I have to try it myself, right?"
"Ah……"
Chen Feng chuckled and stepped forward to stand beside Vermouth, saying, "It seems Miss Vermouth is still a little wary of me."
Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Vermouth scoffed, gave him a look that seemed to say, "Shouldn't we have said something?", and then fell silent.
A brief silence fell between the two.
Vermouth then spoke again: "Was that female sniper on the rooftop someone you arranged?"
"Wow, Miss Vermouth, don't talk nonsense without evidence! I'm a law-abiding citizen, why would I commit such an illegal act as shooting?"
Chen Feng raised his hand dramatically, as if he had suffered countless injustices.
Good citizen...
Vermouth rolled her eyes, but didn't press for more details.
But in his heart, he had already decided that the swift female sniper was someone Chen Feng had arranged.
but……
Vermouth frowned slightly and looked at Chen Feng with some doubt.
She still couldn't understand why, if Chen Feng had arranged for the people to come, he would have gone to all the trouble of notifying her to come and rescue Gin and the other person at the crucial moment.
My left hand is fighting with my right hand? Isn't that a contradiction?
Facing Vermouth's questioning gaze, Chen Feng smiled:
"Madam, I would like to reiterate that I am still willing to coexist peacefully with your organization if permitted, but those two gentlemen... they went a bit too far in a certain matter."
Vermouth did not reply.
She naturally knew what Chen Feng meant by "the things Gin and Vodka did that went too far," which was naturally about the Miyano sisters.
Within the organization, it was an open secret that the Miyano sisters had been rescued by Kid right under Gin's nose, which made Gin, as the person involved, feel extremely humiliated. Therefore, he had never given up on finding out where the two were.
In the eyes of the organization's higher-ups, Kaito Kid, who rescued the Miyano sisters, was at most just a skilled thief, nothing special, and naturally they didn't care much about him.
But now it seems...
There is probably a powerful force behind this person, one that could potentially rival the organization.
buzzing-
The piercing sound of police sirens rang out from the street, gradually becoming clearer as they approached.
"Madam, I think I should be leaving now. If it's convenient, please convey my condolences to the two injured gentlemen."
Chen Feng placed his hands in front of him and bowed gracefully.
After taking only a couple of steps, Chen Feng seemed to remember something and turned back to look in Vermouth's direction again:
"By the way, Miss Vermouth, one of the ladies who works for me has recently developed an improved drug, which I believe is even more advanced than the A drug you are taking. If you are interested, we can find some time to talk about it."
……
Chapter 384 Chen Feng's Return
After saying this, Chen Feng didn't linger. He gave Belmid a polite smile and then turned and walked away.
Upon hearing Chen Feng mention the "medicine," Vermouth's pupils constricted sharply.
He stared at Chen Feng's back, his eyes narrowing slightly.
This thief... knows far more than I thought!
At that moment, a young man wearing a black felt hat silently crept up to the vicinity of the building. Looking at the glass door that had been shattered into glass by a sniper rifle, the young man frowned slightly.
A voice came through the earpiece at that moment: "Shuichi, have you found anything?"
"Not yet. Immediately after the shooting, I tried to find the sniper, but I was stopped by two masked men in black, and then they escaped."
