Natasha couldn't help but take a step back in fear, bit her rosy lips, and said to Bai Ye beside her:

"You should run first. I'll block them for you! After all, you got into trouble with them because of me. It's none of your business! This is my own business. I'll handle it alone!"

"Natasha, you are such a good person! I like sensible women like you! Thank you so much this time. I will escape first and you can help me stop them. Don't worry, I will definitely find someone to come back and rescue you."

Bai Ye nodded gratefully to Natasha, then ran away without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

Natasha: “???”

What's going on?

I said I would block these bad guys for you, and you really let me do that? Are you kidding me? I am a woman, a woman who is powerless. You are a grown man, do you really have the nerve to do that?

At this time, Natasha and the fat man looked at each other, and the other party was signaling, should they continue acting?

"Forget it, let's pack up. The other party is obviously playing tricks on us!"

Natasha said weakly.

"Why?" The fat man said depressedly, "In order to perform this scene, he slapped me so hard that several of my teeth fell out. My whole body is in pain now. And I still have to force myself to perform this second scene. Is that the end of it?"

"How about that? You fight back?" Natasha asked, "Do you dare?"

"I...I dare not." said the fat man embarrassedly.

Who would dare to beat up the eldest son of the Osborne family? Maybe before you even get close, the bodyguards in the dark will draw their guns and aim at you. If you make any unnecessary movements, they will shoot you.

Natasha got into Coulson's car.

The car started and drove on the road.

"The mission failed. The information you provided was wrong." She said coldly, "Who said he was a man who liked married women?"

"Based on the intelligence we have gathered, he is indeed such a man." Coulson said, "As for what happened tonight...we don't know either. We can only say that perhaps you revealed some flaws today..."

"Impossible!" Natasha briefly recalled the previous operation and said, "This is a scene that has been rehearsed hundreds of times. How can there be any obvious flaws? The other party didn't fall for it. The problem is most likely not with me, but with you! Maybe you are too impatient? You have made similar actions before, which alarmed the other party, so they have become very vigilant. So when you do it again, people will immediately notice that something is wrong."

"No! This is the first time we noticed this young master. After all, before he put on the Blue Devil armor, he was basically a playboy who was hated by everyone like Tony Stark. The only difference is that Tony Stark can create huge value, while he... is just a waste who just hangs out with women." Coulson said, "And this time, in order to obtain information about Black Superman, we immediately sent out Natasha, the ace agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., but who knew that we would end up with such a result."

Natasha fell into deep thought. Was there really something wrong with her?

"Did Norman Osborn collect information about SHIELD, so my information was leaked, allowing him to know my identity from the beginning, so he played along with me?"

"That's impossible!" Coulson said, "Norman Osborn doesn't have the ability to get his hands into S.H.I.E.L.D., and your information is highly confidential. Apart from the director, only a few people have access to it."

"I thought about it, maybe it's because he, as the eldest son of the Osborne family, has too many women who want to get close to him. In order to marry into a wealthy family, what can't those female stars, models and other women do? So to be able to get close to his routine, those women have tried it all times, and your routine tonight is not very clever, so he doesn't need to know any information, he can tell the difference just by watching too many routines, that's why I played a trick on you, and it was a joke."

After hearing what Coulson said, Natasha pursed her lips and said, "It's very likely. It seems that we underestimated him because he was a playboy. We thought he was too simple and didn't spend too much time thinking about it. We thought we could play him around, but we didn't expect to be played by him... Damn it!"

"It doesn't matter. We can start over again next time when we are fully prepared," Coulson comforted.

"But I've tried once, and it's obviously impossible for me to test him again." Natasha gritted her teeth and said, "I'm so unwilling to fall into the hands of that little brat this time."

……

"Hahahahaha!"

Bai Ye ran a long way in one breath, laughing loudly:

"Are you stupid? It's fine that you didn't cheat me in the bar, but you don't know when to stop and you want to cheat me a second time? Are you crazy?"

Just as Bai Ye was laughing, Vermouth called.

"I'll be there soon, you haven't left yet?"

"No, but I came out to get some fresh air. I'm not in the nightclub anymore. I'll send you my location."

"OK."

Not long after, accompanied by the roar of the engine, Vermouth appeared in Bai Ye's sight. She had golden eyes, silver hair, and was riding a black motorcycle. She was wearing a tight motorcycle suit that tightly wrapped her figure, showing her curvy figure, heroic and full of charm.

And the picture of her running along with the motorcycle is very impactful. While galloping in the wind, she lazily leans her head on the back seat, feeling the taste of freedom to the fullest. She is cool with a kind of wild sexiness, so beautiful!

Bai Ye felt that it was no wonder that in his previous life, there were so many female internet celebrities on motorcycles, risking car accidents and riding motorcycles everywhere to show off, because it looked really cool and sassy.

But, looking at Vermouth's appearance, Bai Ye couldn't help but think of his past life when he followed six female motorcycle celebrities, but he didn't expect that five of them died in half a year. He was still waiting obsessively to see when the sixth one would appear, but in the end, he was hit and killed by a Lamborghini...

Chapter 113 Miyano Shiho

In the bar, Bai Ye and Vermouth came to a quiet counter and sat down.

She wore a low-cut camisole that revealed her slender neck and fair skin on her chest, and a pair of long patent leather high boots that made her legs look even whiter.

"It's been so long since we last met, and you haven't changed at all!"

Bai Ye smiled.

"There's nothing to brag about." Vermouth shook her long silver hair and said, "If you're envious, you can also have a chance to do it if you lie on the operating table as a test subject."

"Hehe... forget it then."

Bai Ye chuckled.

He added: "Is it really only possible through experiments? Then doesn't the winery directly develop an 'anti-aging drug'?"

Vermouth's actual age should be very old, because she looked the same when she killed FBI agent Judy's father 20 years ago. And today, more than 20 years later, her appearance has not changed at all. Judy calls her the ageless witch and she is still beautiful and charming.

If there really is an anti-aging drug, Bai Ye would really like to ask for a few pills for Tangtang and Andy. This way, they would be extremely happy and let Bai Ye unlock knowledge at will. In the end, the one who would enjoy it all would still be Bai Ye.

"Do you have any guesses?"

Vermouth blinked.

white night:"……"

"Forget it if you don't want to tell me." Bai Ye said, "When I meet my good brother Gin again someday, I'll ask him."

“Please don’t harm Gin.” Vermouth said, “Gin’s hair is already thin. If you harm him again, he will have no hair at all.”

"Hmm?" Bai Ye became interested: "You mean, Gin is actually bald, but he wants to maintain his cool and handsome image, so he uses fake long hair to decorate himself, and in order to prevent it from being blown off by the wind, he simply uses a hat to hold it down?"

"I didn't say that!"

Vermouth said quickly:

"If you want to take off his hat, don't take me with you."

"Given your relationship with Mr. Karasuma, are you afraid of a mere Gin?" Bai Ye said, "I think that even if you take off his hat and make the fact that he is bald known to the world, he still wouldn't dare to do anything to you! If he dares to shoot you without Mr. Karasuma's order, it means that he doesn't take Mr. Karasuma seriously and is not loyal enough to him. Otherwise, why don't you try Gin's loyalty?"

"hehe."

Vermouth smiled but didn't say anything.

She encouraged Bai Ye to try it, but she didn't expect Bai Ye actually wanted her to try it. She didn't have such a strong curiosity and was afraid that she would die if she tried it.

Although she has a high status in the distillery, when it comes to actual combat power, Gin is probably the best. Rum is probably not Gin's opponent, and she is even less able to beat Gin. If Gin fights her, she will definitely be the one to die.

By that time, even if Karasuma Renya wanted to avenge her, she would have been dead long ago, so it would be meaningless.

"How is Shiho Miyano these days?" Bai Ye took a sip of rum and cola, which is made of 50ml rum + 100ml cola + two slices of lime + an appropriate amount of ice. It is a cocktail with bubbles, a soft taste, sweet and sour, refreshing, and a unique tropical flavor of the Cuba Libre cocktail. "What is the progress of the research on the elixir of life in your winery?"

There is a light chocolate aroma as soon as you take a bite, and the aftertaste is long, which is very good.

"That little girl, haha, is still the same as always, always procrastinating and dragging her feet. As a result, the development of APTX4869 has not made any progress until now. The boss is very dissatisfied with her. If she continues like this, she will not end well."

There was a flash of anger in Vermouth's eyes, and he said lightly:

"You'd better prepare a coffin for her in advance."

Vermouth has always hated Miyano Shiho. Bai Ye guessed that it was probably because Vermouth was one of the experimental subjects when Miyano Shiho's parents were developing APTX4869, and she suffered tremendous pain. Even though Vermouth obtained the anti-aging effect that ordinary women dreamed of, she still hated the Miyano couple. After the death of the Miyano couple, her hatred was directly transferred to their daughter, Miyano Shiho, who continued to develop APTX4869. Therefore, in the entire winery, the person who most wanted Miyano Shiho to die was probably Vermouth.

"No way, is it that serious?" Bai Ye laughed, "Shiho may have a low EQ, but her talent for scientific research is unique. She graduated from Columbia University at the age of 18 with a double doctorate in chemistry and medicine. If we get rid of her, where will the winery find a new and suitable APTX4869 main researcher?"

The reason why Byakuya got to know Vermouth and Gin was mainly because when Miyano Shiho came to America to study, the winery and Osborne Group reached a cooperation and prepared to jointly develop the elixir APTX4869. Therefore, Byakuya and Miyano Shiho were the product of the marriage between the two families, and they deepened their ties. In the process of interacting with Miyano Shiho, Byakuya also got to know Gin who came to protect her, and Vermouth who sometimes came to check on the situation.

However, later on, the winery's research and development work did not seem to go smoothly. It wanted financial and technical support from the Osborne Group, but did not want to share the specific technology of APTX4869 with the Osborne Group. Gradually, the two companies fell out.

Norman Osborn probably thought that something like an elixir of life sounded ridiculous. He just wanted to cure the Osborn family's retrovirus cell proliferation disease and was not yet obsessed with immortality. So when the distillery's APTX4869 caused all kinds of jokes and the elixir of life was turned into poison, he gradually stopped believing in the distillery's strength and naturally cut off contact with them.

Without the alliance of interests between the two parties, Miyano Shiho would return to Japan after finishing her studies to continue her research on APTX4869, so Bai Ye and she naturally broke up.

Of course, although Osborne gave up cooperation with the winery, they did not completely fall out. Bai Ye maintained a little private friendship with Vermouth. Well, it was the kind of friendship where two people knew each other well.

"That little girl probably thinks like you, that's why she's so fearless." Vermouth laughed, "It's a pity, the earth will keep spinning without anyone. The organization has recently found a good bioengineer. As long as that little girl continues to make trouble and the organization can't stand it anymore, then, replacing her will only be a matter of time."

"Are you serious?" Bai Ye asked in surprise. "Even if you can find a researcher who is no less capable than Shiho, Shiho has been immersed in APTX4869 for many years. It is impossible for others to reach her level easily. You will probably waste at least five years."

"People who are not loyal to the organization are useless no matter how capable they are." Vermouth said, "I have to admit that the little girl has some brains, so she has already guessed the cause of her parents' death and has taken many small actions in secret. But she still thinks we don't know? Haha, she is just courting death."

"Then did you cause the death of her parents?"

Bai Ye asked curiously.

He did understand.

Atsushi Miyano, father of Shiho Miyano, is a pharmaceutical scientist. He is known in the scientific community as a "mad scientist expelled from the industry". He met Dr. Agasa at a presentation and expressed his interest in Dr. Agasa's inventions. He is a very straightforward person. He and his wife conducted research on "secret drugs to revive the dead" in the organization, and died in an accident during the experiment (according to the organization's report).

Shiho's mother, Elena Miyano, was known as the "Hell Angel". She was British. She met Atsushi when she came to Japan from the UK to study and later married him. She was melancholy and gloomy, and Shiho's gloomy nature was probably inherited from her. She died with her husband, but from the tapes she left for her daughter, we can see that she actually cared about Shiho.

Although on the surface it was said that the Miyano couple died in a fire following the explosion of the experiment, Bai Ye felt that it was most likely the winery that did it, because the things that the Miyano couple preserved for Miyano Shi did not have a very auspicious meaning, as if they knew they would die early.

"I don't know either." Vermouth shrugged and said, "Anyway, it wasn't me who did it, so I don't know the cause and effect."

Perhaps Vermouth knew, but she just didn't want to say it, so she changed the subject without leaving a trace:

"Besides the fact that the little girl is too smart, her love-brained sister is also amazing. That little girl doesn't have any outstanding abilities, and her sister took on everything for her. She used her scientific research ability to protect her sisters, allowing her to live on the organization's funding and live like an ordinary person without working. But she deliberately made an FBI undercover boyfriend and let her boyfriend step on her to become the code name of the organization. When Akai Shuichi's identity was exposed, it naturally led to a crisis of trust in the organization. I really don't know what's going on in her mind... Does she dislike her sister for living too comfortably in the organization?"

Bai Ye also felt that Miyano Akemi was indeed a bit outrageous. For a boyfriend, a boyfriend who was suspected of having deceived her feelings, she was willing to confront the organization and wanted to run away with her sister. Her sister was so awesome that she could let her expose such a big mess as Akai Shuichi and still save both of them. At this time, she didn't stay quiet and had to do it for love. After Akai Shuichi was exposed and escaped, she still contacted Akai Shuichi unilaterally. Maybe it was because of love that her IQ dropped. She didn't realize that her behavior would bring danger. She was simply dancing on the edge of the organization's tolerance. In the end, she was so reckless that the organization couldn't bear her anymore... She felt a little stupid.

After making such a big mess, both of them are fine. So, didn't she know the importance of her sister to the organization at the beginning, and didn't she know it later? Did she really think she could easily take her sister away by herself? As a sister, she didn't discuss it with her sister, and made a deal with the organization without telling her. She didn't consider what kind of consequences would be brought to herself and her sister in case of failure. She acted rashly. As a sister, didn't she know what kind of personality her sister had? Didn't she know who her sister was working for the organization? After clearly realizing that Shuichi Akai was an undercover, she didn't report it, didn't break up, and continued to play the love game with Shuichi Akai. If APTX4869 was not a semi-finished product, her actions would be equivalent to killing her sister. The winery will never be soft on traitors and undercovers.

In fact, after her death, Miyano Shiho was also included in the winery's elimination list, so she fed herself a pill with almost 99% mortality rate, and luckily escaped with her life because of the 1% probability.

It seems that the robbery she planned was quite successful. She is very smart. Judging from her planning, organizational skills and courage, she is a ruthless person. Unfortunately, her brain is filled with water called love. Love brain is harmful.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these things. There's no point in talking too much." Vermouth said, "Let's be honest. I came to you this time because I have something serious to tell you."

"Oh?" Bai Ye smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

"A blue devil appeared in New York before. Was it you?" Vermouth said.

Bai Ye nodded: "Yes."

"Is the armor you are wearing also a product of your Osborn core technology?"

"of course."

"Very good." Vermouth said directly: "Our organization wants to buy a set of that armor. Can you name a price?"

Bai Ye shook his head: "Sorry, not for sale."

He had guessed long ago that after the matter of the Blue Devil Armor was exposed, Osborn and he would probably become popular in the eyes of many people. If someone wanted to use the beauty trap to deal with him, Bai Ye would be happy to help and would accept anyone who came. But if someone wanted to use force, Bai Ye would teach them what real force was.

“Why?” Vermouth’s eyes widened and he said, “I heard that an organization has asked your Osborne Group to buy it, and you have already made an offer.”

"Because they are an official organization, selling things to them is the most normal transaction of clearing money and goods. Osborn can of course name a price." Bai Ye said, "But your winery is a killer organization. If someone finds out that you are using our Osborn Group's core technology Green Goblin Armor and going out to kill people, what will happen to our Osborn Group? Will we be charged with colluding with a terrorist organization? Although we did collude privately."

"unless……"

Vermouth narrowed her eyes: "Unless what?"

"Unless your winery is willing to provide us with something of equal value in exchange." Bai Ye said, "Your winery has been researching APTX4869 for so long. If there is really no result other than poison, then you can't have invested so many years and used countless resources to fill this bottomless pit. So as long as you provide us with valuable APTX4869 variant drugs for us to evaluate, then it is not impossible for us to sell the Green Goblin Armor to you privately."

"I know that you Osborn have always been eyeing the core technology of our organization." Vermouth spread his hands and said, "It's a pity that our boss is very strict about this. He will never agree to exchange APTX4869 for the Green Goblin Armor. One is a drug that is expected to lead to immortality, and the other is just a weapon that enhances human strength. If it were you, what would you choose?"

"An immortal without sufficient power is nothing more than a pig." Bai Ye raised a smile and said, "The most powerful killer in your winery is probably Gin. Compared with Gin's power, which one is more powerful than the extraordinary one? You have been guarding the secret of APTX4869. Don't let the extraordinary one break into your lair with means you can't imagine, kill your top executives, and directly take APTX4869 into his hands."

“Perhaps this is possible, but it’s not something you and I should worry about.” Vermouth said indifferently: “Okay, I will report your conditions to the boss. As for what decision he will make, it’s up to him. It has nothing to do with me anyway.”

After purchasing the Green Goblin armor, the driver used by the winery would definitely not be her, Vermouth, so this matter was just a simple task for her and did not have much motivation.

"That's it, my mission is complete, it's time to go home and sleep."

Vermouth stood up.

"Then I'll send it to you!"

Bai Ye said without hesitation.

Vermouth glanced at Bai Ye twice, then walked out.

"hey-hey."

Bai Ye smiled. Not refusing meant agreeing. A top scumbag like him would naturally understand that.

Following Vermouth, the two went to a hotel in New York together.
