Vermouth put down the telescope and took out her cell phone. She operated the phone with one hand and shook her index finger at the boy next to her with the other hand.

"Let me make a phone call first. Someone is dying of anxiety."

After she finished speaking, she pressed the dial button and moved her index finger to her lips, making a gesture of silence.

It seems that this phone is of a very high level.

beep--

In the quiet car, the prolonged waiting sound is particularly clear.

After about six or seven seconds, the waiting tone was suddenly interrupted.

Without waiting for the person on the other end of the line to say anything, Vermouth spoke first.

"Yo Rum, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"

"…Don't waste time, just tell me everything."

The voice of "Rum" on the phone seemed a little unhappy.

Serabelle leaned in to listen, and to be honest, she couldn't tell whether it was a male or female voice. If she had to say, it was the kind of voice in the movies that was processed using special software.

Rum is so cautious towards his own people. He must be afraid of death.

Vermouth smiled softly, took the opportunity to change her position and moved the phone from her right hand to her left hand, then touched the boy's lips with the tip of her right finger to prevent him from getting any closer.

"Okay, let's start with the good news. The good news is that I have found Curacao now."

"But the bad news is that she is now with a group of police officers from the National Police Agency. If we try to rob her by force, we probably won't have much chance of success. Moreover, judging from Curacao's current condition, she probably hasn't recovered her memory yet. Even if we can kill all those police officers, she may not be willing to go with me, so the mission is quite difficult."

"...It doesn't matter."

After a brief thought, Rum on the other end of the phone quickly gave an answer.

"Vermouth, just do your best. You must understand that the purpose of the operation is not to rescue Curacao, but to prevent Curacao from falling into the hands of the National Police Agency. Do you understand?"

Translated into simple terms, it means that if you really can't get the person back, you should kill him/her immediately to eliminate the trouble in the future.

With Vermouth's emotional intelligence, it was impossible for her not to hear the hidden meaning in his words, and she immediately smiled.

"No problem, that makes it clear."

"Very good.

After a pause, Rum added a final sentence.

"Remember, move fast, time is money."

After saying the last sentence, the person on the other end of the phone hung up.

It was not until she heard a series of busy tones on her phone that Vermouth put down her phone, glanced at the words "Call Ended" on the screen, and sighed and shook her head in a teasing manner.

"Oh my, you are really ruthless, Rum. You said you were my confidant, but when you heard that you were caught, you even prepared to kill her to silence her. If Curacao heard this, she would probably be very sad. After all, you were the one who brought her up."

"You speak as if you are not yourself."

Serabelle sat back in her seat and complained lightly.

Hearing this, the Thousand-Faced Witch raised her eyebrows.

"Hmm~ That seems to be the case? Haha, just pretend I didn't say anything..."

Vermouth put away her phone and stretched out her left index finger and thumb at a 90-degree angle. She clenched the other three fingers into a fist to make a pistol gesture and raised her hand to aim at the tip of the boy's nose.

"But what Sera-kun did just now was also quite dangerous. If you get so close and Rum notices your presence, I will have no choice but to kill you here, no matter how reluctant I am or how sorry I will be for Yukiko."

"Is it so exaggerated?"

Serabelle shrugged, not taking it seriously.

In a small environment like that inside a car, even if Vermouth really wanted to take action, she would be controlled by him the moment she took actual action, and then the punishment mode would be activated on the spot.

As for when it will end, it depends on Vermouth's attitude of admitting her mistakes. If she is tough enough, she might be punished to the point of losing her memory like Curacao.

"Of course. I told you that Rum was very careful. If you had gotten any closer, he would have probably noticed the sound of a hair touching the phone case."

Vermouth relaxed her fingers, gave up her aiming posture, and pinched the boy's nose affectionately.

"Okay, now that's the case, it's almost time to take action. Have you memorized the plan?"

“…It’s not something complicated.”

Chapter 648: Yuya Kazami: The advantage is mine

I came to Dongdu Aquarium again a day later, and as expected, there was still a long queue in front of the Ferris wheel under the night sky.

But it is also true that the biggest selling point of this update of amusement facilities, apart from the dolphin show, is the so-called "Japan's first double-wheeled Ferris wheel". Most of the tourists who come here come for this.

After all, there aren’t that many people who like to watch dolphins heading the ball.

The National Police Agency team split into two groups after entering the aquarium. One group, led by Yuya Kazami, took Curacao directly to the Ferris wheel, while the other group went to the aquarium officials to request a special passage to avoid waiting in line and to attract as little attention as possible from the general public.

As for Serabell and Vermouth, since they had no official status, they could not get a green channel like the National Police Agency, so they chose to find another way.

In short, they came directly under the Ferris wheel.

Just like the backstage of many business organizations, no matter how bright, beautiful and magnificent the appearance is, these adjectives are only limited to the areas that normal tourists would visit.

As for those areas that ordinary tourists cannot go to, such as the backstage, the kitchen, or the subway and high-speed rail control rooms, staff lounges, etc., they are basically as rough as possible.

Various metal pipes protruded from the cement walls that were only painted with a light layer of white paint. Pale lights shone down from overhead, flickering as the blades of the ventilation fans turned. The air was filled with a turbid smell that only existed in underground buildings.

"Phew~ It's really lively outside."

Vermouth's voice echoed in the engine room at the base of the Ferris wheel.

She casually took off a work jacket from a machine room worker who was knocked unconscious by a surprise attack and threw it to Serabelle beside her. Then she went to a nearby wardrobe and picked out a suitable one and put it on herself, and gathered her bright blonde hair into a baseball cap-style work hat with the words "Toudu Aquarium" printed on it.

After doing all this, Vermouth turned to Serabell and folded her arms across her chest.

"What a shame! If we weren't on a mission, we would have lined up to try out the only double-wheeled Ferris wheel in Japan, just like... a date?"

She seemed to have some other meaning in her words.

"Fortunately, I don't have many regrets."

Serabelle put on her work clothes and zipped them up. She raised her hand and smelled the faint smell of cigarettes on her sleeves, and couldn't help but curl her lips slightly.

"Whether you can get a seat or not, I will definitely go and take one later."

"Haha, that's true..."

This is the battle plan, Vermouth chuckled.

"Okay, okay, it's about time. Are you all ready?"

"Okay, let's go."

Serabelle lowered his head and smoothed out the work clothes that were a little too big for him, then lowered his head and adjusted his work hat, then turned around and walked out the door towards the bottom of the Ferris wheel on the other side.

Vermouth watched the boy until his back completely disappeared around the corner, then she bent down to pick up a loudspeaker on the ground, turned around and walked towards the exit.

She did not forget to close the door of the computer room before leaving.

……

The scene changes to the Ferris wheel landing platform above the machine room.

In fact, Yuya Kazami had already brought Curacao here and waited there. He did not queue up, but stood at the entrance of the boarding desk with the latter, using his body to block the gazes of the surrounding tourists who were looking at the handcuffs on Curacao's hands, waiting for his colleagues to finish the job.

To be honest, his behavior is quite eye-catching. Instead of queuing up properly, he came to this kind of place. He is just like a fly that is always thinking about cutting in line.

But usually those who want to cut in line will look left and right with a shifty look, trying to find the right opportunity to sneak past when others aren't paying attention.

But the problem is that this guy not only doesn't have any shifty eyes, but he also stands still with an upright posture as if he is on guard, and looks at his watch from time to time, as if he is waiting for someone.

An example would be the agents who carry out secret missions in American blockbusters.

In short, as long as you don't cut in line, everything will be fine.

Finally, my colleague arrived, bringing with him the person in charge of the amusement park.

A few people walked through the crowd and came to the boarding desk. The person in charge said a few words to the staff who were maintaining order. The staff's face changed immediately. He nodded and reached out to stop the next group of tourists who were about to board the Ferris wheel. He turned around and spread his arms to use his body as a barrier to let Yuya Kazami go on first.

However, at this moment, a magnetic and slightly hoarse female voice amplified by a loudspeaker was heard from the back of the long line.

"Attention, all tourists. Attention, all tourists. Due to the large number of tourists in the aquarium, please line up consciously and do not cut in line. Please pay attention to safety. I repeat..."

The one who is holding the loudspeaker and pretending to maintain order at this moment is naturally Vermouth.

Because people not only tend to move toward light, but also toward sound.

Hearing the "Please pay attention" reminder, not only the ordinary tourists in the queue, but even Yuya Kazami, who was on the boarding platform and was originally preparing to take Curacao to board the Ferris wheel, couldn't help but look back.

But nothing unusual was found.

A baseball cap held up her signature golden hair, and a loudspeaker blocked most of her face. Even if Yu Kazami had seen Vermouth in person, he might not be able to recognize her in this situation.

What's more, he didn't even know him.

So after confirming that there was nothing unusual, Feng Jianyuye withdrew his gaze and exchanged glances with his colleagues beside him.

"Then I'll leave it to you guys."

"Yes"*5

Still five voices answered in unison.

What they didn't notice was that at the moment the sound was heard from behind, a figure rushed up from under the Ferris wheel at an extremely fast speed, disappeared under the cabin that Yuya Kazami was about to enter, and then there was no movement.

Yuya Kazami was completely unaware and just took Curacao into the Ferris wheel.

The axle turned and the cabin slowly rose into the air.

In the crowd in the distance, Vermouth, without her disguise, glanced in the direction of the Ferris wheel and lip-synced silently.

"Be careful~"

After about twenty seconds, the cabin was more than ten meters off the ground.

After confirming that no one below would look up, Serabelle opened her eyes as the cool evening breeze blew in her face.

At this moment, he was stretching his limbs outward and being tied with silk threads as if he was a gecko stuck under the cockpit, with Yuya Kazami and Curacao located above his head.

Thanks to the close distance, Serabelle could hear the conversation in the cockpit clearly.

"Do you remember me?" This is Yuya Kazami.

"No... I don't remember at all..."

This is Curacao, and the voice sounds a little hesitant.

"It's okay, I'll remind you."

Yuya Kazami continued.

"When you regain your memory, I will punish you and make you confess everything you know."

"..."

For some reason, this kind of conversation always gives Serabelle a feeling of being a villain in a third-rate TV series uttering harsh words.

Super corny and embarrassing.

The cabin continued to rise, and was now about thirty or forty meters above the ground. Looking from here into the distance, one could just see the main entrance of the Dongdu Aquarium.

And at this moment, the colorful lights swaying at the main entrance of the aquarium in the distance suddenly seemed to have finally reached the climax of the show. They all stood up and gathered together side by side. The five colors were separated but blended with each other, like a rainbow.

Pretty good looking...

Just as Serabelle was thinking this, Curacao's painful voice was heard without warning in the cockpit above her head.

"Ah! My head!"

Chapter 649 Just Trust Me

"Ugh...ah...my head! Ah!!!"

"Hey! What's wrong with you? Be quiet and don't act rashly!"

Inside the Ferris wheel cabin, Curacao's sudden violent reaction made Yuya Kazami reflexively stand up from his seat and pull out his gun, and he shouted at him to sit down immediately.

However, Curacao, who was covering his head and screaming in pain, could not hear any words at all. He just tried his best to restrain the large number of images that instantly gushed out of his mind, while violently pulling the handcuffs on his left wrist that were connected to the safety fence of the Ferris wheel cabin.
