Conan: The Self-cultivation of Fake Wine

For some reason, a feeling called frustration spread quietly.

Just like the all-pervasive light, no one talks about it, but everyone knows its existence.

"Did she realize something?"

After a long time, the university graduate student who was five years younger spoke up and broke the silence.

"It shouldn't be. Doctor, are you talking in your sleep?"

"Should...shouldn't it be?"

……

"Brother Ren, where are you now?"

"I have something to do. I'm outside now. What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I just got home and found you weren't there."

The ancient recipes that she had copied yesterday were surprisingly successful. Huiyuan wanted to make another effort today, but this time she came up empty-handed.

Lu Ren was not at home. According to Dabai, he never came back after going out this morning.

"I'm probably going to come back later today, so you don't have to wait for me to have dinner. A new colleague has come to the unit, and I'm going to receive him."

New colleagues in the unit...

Haiyuan instantly understood the meaning of this sentence. What makes Lu Ren make a special trip must be the arrival of new members from the organization.

Moreover, Lu Ren also used this kind of reference, which was probably because he was surrounded by members of other organizations, so it was not convenient for him to speak.

"Okay, I understand. Then I'll wait for you to come back."

"Don't wait for me. I don't know what time it will be when I get back. Just rest when you get there."

"Ah."

After hanging up the phone, a lazy yet elegant female voice came to my ears.

"Honey, it's against traffic laws to talk on the phone while driving."

"It's okay, there was no surveillance on that stretch of road just now."

At this time, Lu Ren was driving a Porsche to Tokyo Haneda Airport, with Belmode sitting in the passenger seat.

This afternoon, not long after Lu Ren put down his cell phone, he received another call from Belmode.

The meaning on the other end of the phone was also very clear. They were going to have a new colleague coming soon, and he would fly out this evening.

Belmore hoped that Lu Ren would go with her to pick up the plane. As a host, you should show your kindness as a landlord.

When Lu Ren heard these words, he wanted to complain.

The new colleague could also guess that it was Bourbon, who was Toru Amuro.

His true identity is the Japanese police.

When it comes to familiarity with Tokyo, Toru Amuro is definitely more familiar than a stranger like him.

Even if you don't consider his status as a Japanese police officer, just talk about his nationality.

It is too strange for an American and a Chinese to treat a Japanese as landlords in Tokyo.

It is said that the famous scene is "My lover is this country."

Then Lu, as the protagonist, will take this person around Tokyo and show him the customs and customs of Tokyo.

Doesn’t that say to him, “Your wife is awesome?”

"..."

No, what on earth was he thinking about...

It must have been influenced by Koshimi Nanatsuki.

After Kitajima returned to Tokyo, Koshimizu Nanatsuki finally had a serious job instead of staying at home every day.

Not to mention, wearing a slim suit and skirt, she really looks like a professional elite. The premise is not to speak.

Japan is an interesting country. Women can register for marriage when they are sixteen years old, but they are not allowed to drink until they are twenty-one.

It is illegal to drink alcohol before you are twenty years old.

Koshimi Nanatsuki happens to be twenty years old, so even though she has entered the workplace, she cannot, like other colleagues, go to an izakaya after work and use alcohol to numb her nerves.

So she chose another place to go.

Rice Krispies Cafe.

Her roommate and best friend is working here and may inherit the store in the near future.

Anyway, Lu Ren didn't understand how she drank the juice to the point of becoming beer, and he didn't understand how she really felt like she was drunk after drinking it.

The messy words that came out of his mouth were a bit greasier than the greasy uncle who had been in the workplace for many years.

Lu Ren, who was sitting nearby writing, was often fed a lot of information and was forced to accept a lot of messy knowledge.

Others use wine to relieve their sorrows, but she uses juice to relieve their sorrows.

Lu Ren didn't know whether it was because she had a bad nature, or whether the excessive pressure in the workplace forced her to become mentally abnormal.

Anyway...it doesn't matter.

Everyone's mental state is not normal these days.

Koshimizu Nanatsuki is willing to speak, and Shimabukuro Kimie is also willing to listen. Then let her be.

Lu Ren himself was somewhat affected, but he couldn't use the "boss' majesty" or anything like that to force her to change places.

Because the above words were not meant for him. Koshimi Nanatsuki's own speaking volume was actually within the normal range.

Lu Ren could hear just because his body had been strengthened by the medicine, and his hearing was much better than that of ordinary people.

He can hear conversations that others can't hear.

It is a good thing after all, and the small cost is not worth caring about.

……

Half an hour later, Toru Amuro's plane arrived at the airport on time. Lu Ren also finally met this super popular character Amuro Toru in the post-Conan era.

This person has many identities, including Bourbon, a member of the organization, Toru Amuro, a clerk at Poirot and Kogoro's apprentice, and Rei Fukutani, a Japanese police officer.

It is said that he has different personalities under different identities.

What Lu Ren is relatively familiar with is his apparent identity, Toru Amuro.

He is sunny and cheerful, has a good personality and is good at cooking. In short, he is a person who is easy to get along with.

As for now, what they are about to receive is Bourbon, a member of the organization, a mystic like Belmode.

Lu Ren knew very little about Bourbon's identity. He basically only remembered one sentence about gin's comments about bourbon.

[He is a mystic, arbitrary and unsightly. 】

It's just that, as far as Gin's personality is concerned, there are not many people he can like.

Just listen to what he says, don't take it seriously.

But the mystics are right in their assessment.

The Riddler.

The same is true for Belmode, if they really maintain a high degree of consistency in this regard.

Doesn't that mean that he can show Amuro to the gender-changed version of Belmode?

If he had to deal with this kind of person, Lu Ren felt that he would be somewhat satisfied.

The female version can handle it, and the male version will definitely have no problem.

At least Bourbon would never be like Belmore, calling him "darling" when meeting him.

It was only when he actually saw the real person that Lu Ren realized that he might have been wrong.

No matter what Belmore is like on the inside, she is actually very easy to deal with on the surface.

Perhaps because of her extreme arrogance, she was able to maintain her noble and elegant ladylike demeanor without losing etiquette when dealing with everyone.

As long as you can keep up with the rhythm, you will have a more pleasant chat experience.

This is enough for Lu Ren.

Perhaps when a person has the idea of ​​​​understanding her deeply, he will be hurt by her hidden sting and poison.

But Lu Ren never had any plans in this regard. He was not interested in Belmore, and he never thought about getting into her heart.

Lu Ren was satisfied as long as everyone could maintain a seemingly harmonious relationship with each other.

Before receiving Bourbon, he had the same plan.

We are all in the same company, so it just makes sense on the surface.

Unfortunately, it seems that Bourbon cannot give him what he wants...

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 489 First meeting

cold.

This was Bourbon's first impression on Lu Ren.

His face was solemn, and his whole figure was like a piece of eternal ice, exuding an indifference that would repel people thousands of miles away.

Lu Ren squinted his eyes slightly. He looked into Bourbon's blue-grey eyes, as if he saw a sky covered by dark clouds.

Dark gray clouds, light blue sky.

After they blend into each other, they give people a solid texture like steel.

Is your heart as cold as iron...

interesting. Lu Ren smiled slightly, but did not take it to heart anymore.

Since it's not easy to deal with, then don't force yourself to get along.

So far, there may be people in this world who are worthy of his deliberate friendship. But that person was definitely not Toru Amuro.

His weight is far from enough.

Not counting the bonuses from other props, in terms of one-on-one fighting techniques alone, Lu Ren was able to stabilize Shuichi Akai a long time ago.

Now that his physical fitness is much better than before, it will be easier to deal with Shuichi Akai.

As for Toru Amuro, he is at most on par with Shuichi Akai, or even slightly inferior.

This level of threat is really... unencouraging.

While Riku Ren was looking at Toru Amuro, Toru Amuro was also observing him.

Observing the top executive of the organization, Glenfiddich, who fell from the sky like a comet.

Beside him was Belmore, let alone an old acquaintance, whom he had known for a long time.

Before Toru Amuro boarded the plane, he knew that Belmode would come to pick him up. He just didn't expect that Belmore would actually bring one more person over.

The person he cares most about during this trip is Glenfiddich.

The undercover agent has been lurking in the organization for a long time, and Toru Amuro has basically figured out the top ranking figures within the organization.

With the exception of Glenfiddich, he is the only exception.

His appearance was too sudden, and everything in the past was buried in the mist.

The only person who knows his true identity is "that adult".

The unknown brings confusion and confusion, and confusion can easily turn into temptation, contempt and provocation.

It's just that everyone who did this died, without exception.

Before anyone could react, the killing was over.

To put it bluntly, the Japanese police and the intelligence agencies of other countries may not have killed as many people as Glenfiddich killed in one go.
