I am in Mihua, and the ladies all like me

Vermouth raised his eyebrows: "What do you mean?"

"It's very simple. Just as you said, your organization attaches great importance to defectors, and the FBI also attaches great importance to you, the Thousand-Faced Witch, so the FBI sent a large force, although you deceived them."

Serabelle analyzed it bit by bit.

"But your organization only sent two people, including you, to hunt down the traitor. This is obviously unreasonable. If you really confirmed that Huibara is Shirley, given the nature of your organization, you would have sent someone to assassinate her long ago. And that sniper must be your bootlicker... I saw that his phone screensaver is a screenshot of your poster."

"So let's make a deal."

"What deal?"

"Stop attacking your so-called Shirley. If the higher-ups in the organization ask about what happened today, just say that you were ambushed by the FBI using a fake bait."

"Haha~"

Vermouth did not refuse immediately, but showed an interested look.

"That's quite an unreasonable request. So what is the price you are willing to pay for it?"

"Hide everything that happened today and help fool the FBI." said Serabelle.

"Not enough." Vermouth smiled.

"I think that's enough. After all, you need my help to hide it. We are helping each other."

Serabelle paused.

"For example, gin."

"..."

Hearing Gin's name, Vermouth fell into a brief silence for the first time since they met.

She could understand what Serabelle wanted to say. Yes, whether it was tonight, what happened last time at the Beihu Hotel, or what happened in New York before, it could almost be considered as semi-collaboration with the enemy.

If the current situation of both sides continues, it is only a matter of time before they face Gin head-on.

Once Serabelle reveals something, Gin will definitely become suspicious.

Moreover, almost everyone in the organization who is familiar with Gin knows that this guy is stubborn. That fool will really shoot a traitor, no matter if you are the second or third in command of the organization.

After a little thought, the Thousand-Faced Witch slowly exhaled.

"make a deal."

Chapter 364 Mary: Tonight I will play my niece...

Half an hour later, the black Toyota slowly stopped at the entrance of a residential complex on the outskirts of central Tokyo.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Serabelle shifted the gear to neutral, pulled the handbrake, unbuckled her seat belt, and turned to the back seat to look at Vermouth, whose upper body was stripped to only a thin shirt.

"We're here now, you can drive the rest of the way back by yourself."

"Hmm~"

Vermouth crossed her legs, raised the corners of her lips, and snapped her fingers elegantly to indicate that it was okay. At the same time, she tilted her head with interest and looked at the community on the side of the road through the car window.

"It's really surprising that you live in a place like this? You can actually afford a house in this area?"

Serabelle shrugged and gave an ambiguous answer: "Well... you don't have to buy a house. Renting is also an option, isn't it?"

"Right."

Noticing that the front passenger, Akai Mari, had also unbuckled her seat belt and was giving her a sharp warning look, Vermouth wisely chose to interrupt the topic in time.

Just throwing out a sentence vaguely.

"Please get off the bus faster."

There is no hidden meaning in this, it's just because it's very cold outside.

After all, before this she had fallen into the water and was soaked, and had been standing in the cold wind for a long time at the dock as punishment. She only felt a little better after the air conditioner was turned on in the car. If the temperature in the car dropped sharply again at this time, she would definitely catch a cold tomorrow.

"Understood. See you later."

After Serabelle finished speaking, she and Akai Mari, who was sitting on the passenger seat, opened the door and got out of the car at almost the same time and with the same movements.

Although the time was short, as the doors on both sides of the car were connected, the cold night air outside the car immediately blew into the car with the evening breeze, taking away a lot of warm air.

Sitting in the back seat, thinly dressed Vermouth took a deep breath, then placed her hands on the upper edges of the passenger seat backrests and slowly moved from between the seats to the front row.

By the time she sat in the driver's seat and looked out the window, Serabel and Akai Mari had already disappeared behind the gate of the community, and she couldn't even see which direction they were going.

I really lost a lot tonight...

After adjusting all the air outlets on both sides towards herself, Vermouth fell back into the seat due to inertia. She was so tired that she was too lazy to put her hands on the steering wheel.

To be honest, she didn't care much about Calvados' death, and she almost felt nothing at all.

Just as Serabelle said, the relationship between the two parties is just that of a goddess and a dog, and it can't even be considered green tea.

Because Vermouth had never "hooked" the latter, never shown any kindness nor given any benefits, all of this was purely Calvados's wishful thinking.

In comparison, what really annoyed Vermouth was the flatulence she ate tonight. It was no exaggeration to say that she had never eaten so many flatulence in her entire life!

It would have been fine if he hadn't been defeated and thrown into the water so many times, but he also failed when he tried to sow discord between Serabel and Yukiko, and was forced to make a deal and promise not to attack Shirley again.

You have to know that she is the Vermouth who is feared by countless people in the organization!

Tsk, so annoying, I have to find a chance to take revenge...

But the question is, how to retaliate?

Vermouth had a headache. Fighting was not her strong point. With her skills, she couldn't even beat Akai Mary, let alone Serabell.

So there is no need to think about using force to get back the upper hand.

But when it comes to using strategies, she even used the biggest trick on Yukiko, who had an aura of "Yes, what's wrong, I know", and could not be shaken at all.

How to retaliate?

No, wait, if Yukiko can't do it either...

As if she suddenly remembered something, Vermouth put her hands on the steering wheel again and a witch-like evil and beautiful smile appeared on her lips.

Don't forget, she is the Witch with a Thousand Faces.

……

On the other side, in order to avoid Vermouth's sight, Serabelle and Akai Mari took a detour to the side path as soon as they entered the community gate, and they walked side by side beside the deserted green belt at night.

"...I thought you would hit me harder, Sister Mary."

Serabelle glanced at the British girl beside her and raised the question that she was not convenient to ask in the car before.

In his expectation, Akai Mari's... hatred towards Vermouth should be even stronger.

After all, he was the culprit who once drugged himself and caused his body to shrink, just like Gin to Conan.

But in the end, Akai Mary's attack on Vermouth was unusually light. Apart from making her jump into Tokyo Bay to take a bath many times in the middle of winter, the rest were just a few bruises on her body.

Those were left by Vermouth in order to block Akai Marie's attack, they are all on her hands and feet.

"No need."

Akai Mary looked ahead and said calmly.

"In the beginning, I was really angry with her, thinking that she had ruined the life I was supposed to have by changing my body into what it is now. But as time went by in Japan, I got used to my current body and started to like my current life."

"I told you, if our bodies hadn't turned out like this, we might still be working for MI6 in London, and our relationship would have continued to be hidden from Machun, and wouldn't have developed to the point it is now."

To put it simply, I was not used to it when I first shrunk, but as time went by, I found that... well, it's pretty good.

"finally arrived at home."

As they were talking, the two had already arrived at the entrance of the apartment building. They entered the corridor and came to the elevator. Akai Mary raised her chin and signaled Serabell to press the down button of the elevator for her.

She then took out the wig and mask from her body and put them on.

Ok?

Serabelle's finger pressing the elevator button paused slightly, and a golden question mark appeared above her head.

What does this mean? Before, Akai Mary had to dress up like this in order to trick Vermouth, but now that it’s over and she’s gone home, why does she have to put her clothes back on?

Could it be that he is addicted to COSing his niece?

"looks like?"

Mary Akai adjusted her mask. The simplified voice changer invented by Dr. Agasa under the mask changed the voice of her speech. It was no longer the cold and capable voice of a mature woman, but a slightly cold and casual voice of a girl.

"No flaws at all." Serabell told the truth.

"Yeah, that's good."

Akai Mari withdrew her gaze and hummed softly.

"Machun should be still awake now. If she sees me like this, it will easily cause a party. When you get home, go to the room and get some clean clothes. I'll wait for you in the bathroom."

"it is good."

Serabelle agreed immediately.

It’s just taking a bath with Sister Mary, it’s not the first time anyway... eh?

Suddenly realizing that something seemed to be wrong, Serabelle quickly turned her head again to look at the brown-haired girl next to her.

Huh? Sister Mary, what did you just say? ! !

Chapter 365 Why are you working harder than usual! ?

Another night of light wind and heavy rain passed, and time passed quickly to the next day.

When the hazy sunlight of a cloudy winter morning shone into the room through the curtains, a small hand stretched out from the slightly raised quilt on the second bedroom bed in Sera's house. It swayed in the slightly cold air for a while and then put it down again, with the back of the hand gently resting on the girl's forehead with disheveled hair.

Although it was a very small movement, due to the huge temperature difference between inside and outside the quilt, even the smallest gap would cause the coldness in the room to seep in. Noticing the temperature change, Serabelle frowned slightly in her sleep, and then opened her eyes in a daze.

"Well?"

What caught my eye was naturally the delicate profile of the British girl close at hand.

"Good morning, Sister Mary. Uh...what time is it now?"

"It's still early, only seven o'clock, you can sleep a little longer."

Akai Mari said this, but her hands had no intention of letting him continue sleeping.

She lifted the quilt slightly, brought her arms that were stretched outside back into the middle of the quilt, and pressed her skin, which had been fully cooled by the cold morning air, completely against the boy's chest, which was not blocked by any clothes, before it warmed up again.

hiss--

Serabell, who was still sleepy a second ago, took a deep breath and her eyes instantly became clear.

"Ms. Mary..."

"Humph."

Seeing that this guy had finally regained consciousness, Akai Mary snorted slightly.

This made Serabelle a little confused.

It is true that there are some parents in this world who enjoy torturing and controlling their children, for example, forcing their children to get up at five or six in the morning even though it is the weekend or during holidays.

But he knew very well that Mary Akai was definitely not among them.

Mary Akai's educational policy has always been that as long as it does not affect her main job, she can relax however she wants during the rest of the time, such as sleeping in, playing games, or going out with friends.

What's more, they didn't go to bed until half past twelve last night. Isn't it a bit strange to ask him to get up at this time?

Did I do something bad last night?

Not even?

Akai Mari said nothing, but reached out and pinched the boy's nose.

"Remember what you said before? You said you're not interested in Shiho, right?"

"Yeah, I did."
