Gin doesn't want to work hard

“…Vermouth!”

Akai Shuichi's obviously angry voice came from the other end of the phone.

Kurosawa chuckled and imitated Vermouth's tone.

“It’s just interest.”

"Next time we meet, it will be you lying on the ground!"

After saying that, Kurosawa hung up the phone.

After doing all this, Kurosawa felt better.

It goes without saying that Shuichi Akai probably hates Vermouth to death right now.

Kurosawa stuffed the bow tie back into his pocket.

Then a shot destroyed the phone.

"boom!"

Almost at the same time, a gunshot was heard from above.

Hearing this voice, Kurosawa frowned slightly.

Logically speaking, their guns are equipped with silencers, so they shouldn't make any sound.

Unless, the ones who fired the shots were not Vermouth and the others!

……

at the same time.

Ireland dodged the bullet somewhat awkwardly.

He didn't expect that there were two people hiding behind the door.

Because of the angle, he killed one person.

Another man shot him.

Just as Ireland was about to fight back, the man simply pushed the body of his companion forward and ran out.

Ireland was blocked by the body and lost sight of the man.

However, thinking of Vermouth and Gin outside, Ireland was not too anxious.

He then kicked the corpse away and then slowly chased after it.

……

Kurosawa came up from the basement and bumped into a man head-on.

Looking at the gun in the man's hand, Kurosawa realized that the person who just fired the gun must be him.

Kurosawa glanced behind the man and, as expected, saw Ireland's figure.

Seeing that Ireland had pointed the gun at the man, Kurosawa didn't want to get involved and simply took a step back to avoid the man's blood splattering on him.

But it was this step that gave the man some kind of illusion.

The man actually walked up to him and pointed the gun at Kurosawa.

"Stop it, or I'll kill him!"

Kurosawa, who was taken hostage for the first time in Gin's state, couldn't help but be stunned.

Similarly, Ireland and Vermouth were also stunned when they saw this scene.

Chapter 167 Explosion

"Pfft hahahaha!"

The stagnant atmosphere was broken by a burst of laughter.

Vermouth almost bent over with laughter, not trying to hide her gloating expression at all.

“Gin, you…hahahaha…”

Ireland, who was not far away, also curled his lips slightly, but he was still a little cautious and did not laugh out loud.

But I have to say that the scene of Gin being held hostage was indeed dramatically funny.

The man who pointed the gun at Kurosawa was confused by the reactions of Vermouth and the other person.

He didn't understand why they could still laugh when he already had their companions' lives in his hands.

Is it possible?

Are they at odds with each other?

When he thought about the nature of the organization that Vermouth belonged to, the man felt that his guess was not wrong.

hateful!

If this is true, then wouldn't his behavior at this moment be completely meaningless?

The man glanced at Vermouth who was obviously watching the show.

Then he looked back at Ireland.

The man who had unceremoniously pulled out his gun and killed his accomplice just now actually put the gun down!

He also acted as if he was watching a show.

The man's hands trembled a little, and he finally looked at Kurosawa.

Because Kurosawa had taken a few steps back before, he was now standing on the stairs leading down.

The wide hat covered his face, making it impossible for the man to see his expression.

However, with the actions of Vermouth and the other person before him, the man subconsciously put Kurosawa in the role of being abandoned by his companions.

Recalling Kurosawa's subconscious avoidance when he saw him, the man suddenly felt that he was a little pathetic.

Giving up the idea of ​​continuing to attack Kurosawa, the man unexpectedly turned the gun to point at Vermouth.

He was not familiar with the other people, but he was familiar with this one, Vermouth, whom they had been chasing for so long.

Men are all too familiar with it.

Since he can't escape death anyway, he can't let her off easily no matter what!

The man thought so and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

The development of things was unexpected.

Vermouth, who was originally happily watching the show, never expected that the other party would actually shoot at her.

There wasn't much room to hide in the narrow corridor.

Vermouth could only fall backwards and barely avoid the bullet.

Just as the man was about to continue shooting, a sharp pain came from his wrist.

He screamed, his hands loosened weakly, and the pistol fell to the ground.

Kurosawa stepped forward and kicked the pistol away, stopping the man's attempt to pick up the gun and resist again.

The man looked up at Kurosawa in disbelief.

Kurosawa frowned and kicked the man.

"Take away that disgusting look of yours."

Vermouth stood up, brushed off the dust on her body, and walked towards them.

"What were you thinking about just now?"

"Why did you suddenly attack me? Huh?"

Vermouth bent down and pinched the man's chin, forcing him to look up.

Vermouth was really curious about the way men thought.

Gin was such a big person standing in front of him, but he didn't do anything and chose her instead.

She didn't do anything to attract hatred, did she?

The man laughed miserably and made no attempt to answer.

As expected, no matter what, they are all members of that organization.

He shouldn't have any inexplicable sympathy for such a person.

The man glanced at the two people standing next to him, and a hint of madness flashed in his eyes.

Let's die together!

He opened his mouth and pretended to answer Vermouth's question.

A hand quietly reached into his arms and grabbed an oval hard object.

With a slight "click" sound, the man suddenly grabbed Vermouth tightly.

Oops!

Vermouth sensed something was wrong.

She kicked the man hard.

But the man who was determined to die would obviously not let go so easily.

Kurosawa stepped on the man's arm.

Accompanied by the sound of bones rubbing against each other, the man's hand twisted directly, and naturally he lost the strength to hold Vermouth.

Without time to hesitate, Kurosawa pulled Vermouth down the stairs.

"boom!"

Directly behind them, the bomb exploded.

The huge impact can be felt even across a height difference.

Fortunately, with the help of Ke Xue's windbreaker, Kurosawa didn't feel too bad.

At most, there was a lot of dust on his clothes, making him look a little disheveled.

As for Vermouth who was with him, she was in more than just a miserable state.

She half-knelt on the ground, with her hands resting on her head.

The dizziness and tinnitus caused by close contact with the explosion were all gone.

Vermouth was pale and looked a little uncomfortable.

Kurosawa called her twice, but there was no response.

It seems that his hearing has not recovered yet.

However, due to the explosion just now, it is not advisable for them to stay here for long, and they should withdraw.

Kurosawa simply went straight to the point.

He picked up Vermouth and pointed upwards, indicating that it was time to retreat.

Vermouth blinked and took a step forward, but the next moment, her legs went weak and she almost fell down again.

Kurosawa: ...

There was no choice but for him to step forward and give him a hand.

But he didn't expect that Vermouth would go further and half of her body collapsed on him.

Resisting the urge to abandon her, Kurosawa took Vermouth up the stairs.

As soon as he went upstairs, Kurosawa threw the man directly to Ireland.

Ireland was relatively far away from the center of the explosion, and had taken shelter in a room in time, so it seemed that he was not much affected at this time.

Looking at Vermouth being thrown by Kurosawa, Ireland subconsciously wanted to reach out and catch it.

But Vermouth stopped in time.

She curled her lips into a smile and complained half-seriously.
