Chapter 229 London: Almond-scented Water

Chapter 229

Vermouth was a little curious about what Rum was doing. She was delayed because she had to complete the mission to meet up with Akai Mary. So what was the reason for Rum?

"I suspect that there is something wrong with the current queen."

At first, Rum did not focus his attention on the queen they were targeting.

As the head of the organization's intelligence, he was aware of what Vermouth had just said, but just as Vermouth had said - there was no evidence.

Moreover, Rum did not think that with such detailed intelligence support, there was any possibility that Mulan Tan would fail.

But the fact is that after the organization's assassination, the queen is still alive and well.

"That queen... is she really the same queen from the beginning?"

Vermouth also had some doubts, after all, she was always proficient in the art of disguise.

Gin and Vermouth were not too surprised at what Rum said. It was obvious that they had thought about this aspect a long time ago.

The organization's assassinations rarely fail.

If the originally neutral Grand Inquisitor had not stood behind the queen after she woke up, the organization's assassination would not have ended so easily.

"Rum, then you should investigate the queen carefully..."

……

"Now that the matter between Ms. Xiaolan and Mr. Kudo has been clarified, I will go back first. We can contact each other again tomorrow when Conan has had a good rest."

Seeing that the farce in front of her had temporarily ended, Funina prepared to take the opportunity to say goodbye and leave.

"Wait a minute, Miss Funina, I heard from Conan that you have been busy all day. Why don't we go downstairs and have a meal together later." Kudo Shinichi stopped Funina who was about to leave.

Ran Mouri looked at Kudo Shinichi in shock. She didn't expect that the other party could have such a high emotional intelligence.

"Why is he not like this to me?" Mao Lilan felt a little unhappy.

But she was considerate and didn't feel resentful because of this. "Yes, Sister Funina, have we had dinner yet? Why don't we have dinner together?"

"This..." Furninna wanted to leave quickly.

"After all, Shinichi has disturbed you for an entire afternoon, and I still want to thank you." Mao Lilan said very politely.

At this point, it was difficult for Funina to refuse again, "Okay then."

"Let's go downstairs. That way Sister Funina can come downstairs after dinner. I remember there seem to be a lot of taxis around here."

...

At the dining table, Mao Lilan saw that Kudo Shinichi had been secretly observing Funina who was sitting next to her.

To be honest, she was indeed very unhappy, especially since her childhood sweetheart, who had expressed feelings for her not long ago, turned around and started paying attention to other people.

No matter how well-mannered Mao Lilan is, she can't bear it.

But she knew very well in her heart that Shinichi, like herself, had just arrived in London and had never had any contact with Miss Funina before. Logically, there would be nothing between the two of them.

But people are selfish.

Once you get one thing, you want more.

She once thought that she was the only one who made efforts in that relationship, but now she knows that Shinichi, the person she has liked for many years, is just like her, and the feelings between them are so sincere.

Naturally, Mao Lilan would feel sad that Kudo Shinichi paid attention to other girls.

"Come to think of it, I still don't know how Sister Funina and Shinichi knew each other. Did something happen to you two?"

Mao Lilan wanted to test it, but she had never done such a thing before, and the sister in front of her looked so gentle. Mao Lilan felt that she was thinking too much about people.

But she really wanted to know what happened. She really wanted to know how Shinichi knew her.

"Huh?" Fu Nina looked at Mao Lilan strangely, "Come to think of it, I just met Mr. Kudo not long ago."

"what?"

Mao Lilan was very shocked and didn't know what was going on.

They looked like they had known each other for a long time...

Funina said that she met Conan in a dessert shop, and was invited to investigate the case with them. After Conan received a phone call and ran away, she told Mao Li Ran about what happened between the two of them.

"Yes, is that so." Mao Lilan was very embarrassed and didn't know how to explain to the sister in front of her why she had misunderstood.

Although she didn't say it, this...

Mao Lilan's face turned red as if blood was about to bleed, and she really didn't know what to do.

Fortunately, the food they ordered has been delivered now.

Funina seldom eats out, and no one would normally allow her to go to such an ordinary restaurant. The tableware in front of her did not seem to be disposable. Although the restaurant would disinfect it, Funina still poured a cup of hot water to wash her tableware.

"The online reviews say that this restaurant has very good hygiene, so you don't have to worry about not washing the dishes properly." Kudo Shinichi didn't know what he was thinking, but when he saw what Funina did, he said it directly.

"Shinichi." Mao Lilan quickly stopped the other party. Everyone has their own preferences. What Shinichi said was really inappropriate.

"It's okay, I am a bit of a germaphobe myself."

Actually, there is nothing wrong with this.

Kudo Shinichi just wanted to find a topic to talk to Funina.

But he couldn't find any suitable topic.

"Hey, is this almond water? It has such a strong flavor. If I hadn't smelled it, I would have thought it was just ordinary boiled water."

Mao Lilan glared at Kudo Shinichi, really not knowing what was going on with him today.

She felt that Shinichi seemed to have come to her senses, but soon Shinichi would use his actions to prove to her that he was still the same Kudo Shinichi.

Seeing that the atmosphere was becoming a bit awkward, Mao Lilan quickly changed the subject.

"Almonds? That's just ordinary hot water, right?" Dr. Agasa asked in confusion.

Speaking of which, I went to get that pot of water myself.

After all, there are mostly cold water and drinks here, and hot water can only be found in special stores.

Moreover, he happened to feel a little uncomfortable in his stomach tonight. Maybe it was because of the unfamiliar climate?

Dr. Agasa didn't know what was wrong with him, so he asked the boss for a pot of hot water.

After hearing what Dr. Agasa said, everyone's eyes stayed on the thing in Funina's hand.

Mao Lilan leaned in and sniffed it carefully. "But it does smell like almonds... and it seems to be a little different from ordinary almonds."

A puzzled look appeared on Mao Lilan's face.

"Don't touch it, put it down." Kudo Shinichi didn't know what he was thinking about, and the expression on his face suddenly became terrified.
