Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

Akikawa Sarana has a habit ingrained into her bones, which is that when she faces people from the organization, no matter what the situation is, she will always maintain the proper acting state, so even if her brain is a little bit out of order at this moment, it will not matter.

There was no longer a dazed expression on her face, and her demeanor gradually changed significantly, ensuring that Karasuma Renya behind the camera could see that she was reminiscing.

Her mind continued to brainstorm frantically.

The organization would not give the boss unresearched drugs, so using his blood relatives to test the drugs should have always been a tradition within the organization. For example, she knew of Vermouth, who was close to her.

Also, if she continued to think in this direction, then she would have found the reason why she was the only one who survived in the entire laboratory.

The basis of the drug trial she took was based on the BOSS's bloodline genes from the beginning. Therefore, she, who was still three generations related to the BOSS, was most able to adapt to the drug and survive.

There was also a question that Akikawa Sarina had been wondering about, and now she had the answer, "Is this also the reason why you have been tolerant of my behavior over the years?"

If it was just drugs that were controlling her, given the organization's habits, they would not have let her go like they did before. She had always thought it was her physical data... No, in fact, her guesses had not been particularly far off, but she had not expected that the blood relationship between her and the BOSS was so close.

Akikawa Sarina couldn't help but curse Karasuma Renya as a madman in her heart.

Karasuma Renya climbed up the pole handed to him by Akikawa Sarina with a sanctimonious look, "You are my junior, and you lost your parents when you were young. How can I bear to be too harsh on you?"

Listening to Karasuma Renya's words, Akikawa Sarana once again lowered her head silently, as if she was thinking about something sad.

Ah, I can't bear it... Haha, Lao Deng! If you really can't bear it, you wouldn't have let her enter the laboratory to endure those inhuman tortures in the first place.

What does he want to do by saying these disgusting and beautiful words? Is he using their blood relationship to continue to ensure her loyalty to the organization? Or does he want her to take the initiative to do something because of her identity?

She didn't believe that this old Deng suddenly wanted to communicate with her about the relationship between blood relatives and wanted to enjoy the non-existent family happiness. Even if her mother in this life probably had no feelings for this old Deng, this old Deng would not be so stupid.

If it were her, after establishing the blood relationship, she would use her close friends and her position in the organization to further coerce and induce.

And the people closest to her...

As expected, Akikawa Sarina then heard Karasuma Renya mention Bourbon.

Karasuma Renya asked in a tone that seemed to show concern for the younger generation, "Come to think of it, do you really like Bourbon?"

Of course, if he turned off his ugly voice changer, he might be more sincere. Or, if he cared more about her situation over the years, it might make the blood relationship between them seem useful.

But Karasuma Renya didn't say that. Akikawa Sarana felt that it was likely that the old man thought that the fact that she suddenly became the boss's direct bloodline from an ordinary second-generation of the organization was enough.

Akikawa Sarana tried her best to act shy, as if she was just beginning to fall in love. However, she also kept herself rational and steady because of her age. Only the tips of her ears turned red. “It can’t be considered as a special love. Vermouth told me not to invest too much emotion. I remember all this.”

"Haha, it doesn't matter. If you really like Bourbon, just like him. If he doesn't obey discipline, lock him up and let someone train him to obey..."

Karasuma Renya didn't care that Bourbon was also a relatively important code member of the organization, "If it doesn't work, send him to be brainwashed."

When Akikawa Sarana heard what he said, countless ways to kill Karasuma Renya instantly came to her mind.

But on the surface, she just pursed her lips and said, "Bourbon like that is meaningless. I still prefer him in his current state. I can just use a bait to hook him to play with me."

Karasuma Renye was certain that Limu had understood what he meant from these words. He chuckled and said, "Bourbon wants a position in the organization. When you replace Rum in the future, he, as your lover, will naturally have a higher position in the organization."

Akikawa Sarana pretended to hold her breath, then suddenly raised her head, with a gleam of ambition in her eyes. "What do you mean?"

Karasuma Renya liked the ambition she showed at this moment, "It's just what you think."

After getting the answer from Karasuma Renya, Akikawa Sarina clenched her right fist and placed it on her heart and said to Karasuma Renya, "Please rest assured, I will investigate the matter of Rum thoroughly."

"Of course I trust you."

Karasuma Renya continued to paint a rosy picture for Akikawa Sarana, "After all, you also have Karasuma blood flowing in your veins, so I'm naturally closer to you than those outsiders, otherwise I wouldn't have allowed you to be so casual all these years."

There was no trace of Akikawa Sarana in the surveillance footage on Karasuma Renya's side. He slowly raised his hand and pressed the button at hand, cutting off the connection with the surveillance footage in the base.

He was well aware of the factional struggles in the organization.

Rum has been secretly contacting the old guys in the organization for years, and they all thought that his control over the organization had declined, so they didn't know about it. In fact, he didn't deal with Rum just because the research on the drug had reached the most critical point and in order to ensure the balance of the various factions in the organization.

The investigation of Rum cannot be left to Gin and Vermouth, otherwise the delicate balance in the organization will be broken.

The current three-party confrontation is the result of his deliberate indulgence. Gin and Vermouth will both suffer if they are taken out separately to fight against Rum and those old guys, so he had ignored the fact that Gin and Vermouth joined forces to deal with Rum.

Moreover, given the personalities of Gin and Vermouth, they will not completely trust each other 100%, which creates a balance and he does not have to worry about them completely cooperating.

But now that Rum's hand has stretched too far, he can no longer tolerate Rum's betrayal.

He must find someone who can replace Rum. His granddaughter, who has always been indifferent to him, is suitable. Although her ability is not enough, it does not matter. As long as she has the ambition, her ability can be cultivated slowly.

At least, with this girl who seems to know nothing and has never been involved in organizing factional struggles replacing Rum, those old guys will only think that this girl is easy to control and easy to deceive, which will not make them too dissatisfied.

This also makes it easier for him to hide it from everyone and do what he plans to do without anyone noticing.

As for the fact that her granddaughter was raised by Vermouth, will they have a closer relationship?

There was a mysterious smile on Karasuma Renya's old face. He had just seen that this girl still had some resentment towards Vermouth in her heart, otherwise she would not have deliberately mentioned Vermouth in front of him.

"Cough cough..." Karasuma Renya covered his mouth with a handkerchief and coughed twice. After coughing, a trace of worry flashed across his face.

The only two drugs that were close to the target effect showed unacceptable side effects in both Vermouth and Limu. He felt that so many scientists were useless and no research results had been produced after so many years.

Feeling a little chest tightness, Karasuma Renye took the respirator beside him and put it on himself, then pressed a button. The next moment, someone came in from outside and pushed the wheelchair he was sitting in out of the room.

Akikawa Sarana did not stay in this base for long and drove away from this suburban factory directly.

[Host, are you okay?] The system muted itself before Akikawa Sarana entered the room, so as not to affect the host's acting like the previous two times.

It was also very glad that it had muted itself in advance. Because of the host's personal privacy, it did not take the initiative to investigate the host's personal information, so it did not know that the host was so closely related to Karasuma Renya!

Akikawa Sarina was very stable. When she heard that Tomoko was worried about her, she said in her heart, "I'm fine. Tomoko, go play with your own things first. I'm thinking about some issues."

[Okay, host, call me if you have anything.]

【Um. 】

After confirming that the system had gone to play on its own, Akikawa Sarana, who was already completely away from the base, parked the car at a roadside parking space.

Rolling down the car window, she breathed in the fresh air outside and cleared her confused mind.

First of all, after she realized the boss's thoughts, she deliberately mentioned Vermouth's control and teaching of her in front of the boss in a slightly dissatisfied tone.

With the boss's selfish and vindictive character, he would definitely think that she only has a decent relationship with Vermouth on the surface, and that she must still be holding a grudge against Vermouth.

From his vague words later, it can be seen that he really believed in her acting skills. In this way, the things that Vermouth had concealed for her before should not be investigated by the boss.

But when it comes to her feelings towards Vermouth, to be honest, she really hates Vermouth... But she must admit that she also regards Vermouth as her elder teacher, and loves and hates her. She hates her for finding her back then, but also loves her for her careful teaching over the years, and her elder-like care for her.

If one day she and Vermouth stood on opposite sides... Akikawa Sarina felt that as long as it didn't involve certain people or things, they should let each other go.

And then...

She looked down at her hands. Through her fair skin, she could clearly see the blue blood vessels beneath her skin. She could even seem to hear the sound of blood flowing in the veins.

A trace of disgust flashed in Akikawa Sarina's eyes. She had always hated the fact that the blood of that couple was flowing in her veins. Now her mother in this life was even the blood that caused all the suffering.

This made her...

Thinking of this, Akikawa Sarana woodenly took out her mobile phone, opened the photo album in her phone that was locked and protected by the system, and looked at the photo of her and Amuro Toru taken in the botanical garden a few days ago.

Looking at the serene smiles on their faces in the photo album, Akikawa Sarana took a deep breath and then exhaled heavily.

Calm down! Akikawa Sarana warned herself in her heart.

She is her, the Karasuma family is the Karasuma family, she has always been Akikawa Sarana in this life and will only be Akikawa Sarana in the future.

She didn't blame herself for her blood relationship before, and she won't do that now. Otherwise, her lover, relatives and friends will worry about her, and she can't use other people's problems to hurt her lover, relatives and friends.

Now that they knew her relationship with the BOSS, excluding those disgusting things, this fact was a huge surprise to their plan.

Although what the boss said was a little vague, she was sure that Old Deng really hated Rum, and perhaps Rum had indeed done something that the boss could not tolerate.

The reason why Old Deng didn't touch Rum before was probably for the purpose of checks and balances, just as they had guessed before, so their original plan was to make the BOSS give up Rum and find a candidate for checks and balances. They had already chosen the candidate for the BOSS, and that was Bourbon.

But since the boss had drawn this pie for her today, she had to make it come true. Anyway, with the boss's tacit support, it should be easier and safer for her to replace Rum than for Bourbon to replace Rum, as she has the blood of Karasuma.

The boss, Old Deng, probably never dreamed that his calculations were exactly in line with theirs.

Akikawa Sarina stroked the edge of her phone. She had to reduce her contact with Kenji and Jinpei. In the past, with Vermouth's help to cover up and the boss not paying much attention to her, it was no problem for her to get along with them for a while.

But in this situation, Gin and the boss will definitely pay more attention to her than before. In this case, even Vermouth will not be able to help her cover up.

The same goes for the Mori Detective Agency and Dr. Agasa's house. She must reduce contact with them, although she can also use her identity as Bourbon's girlfriend and her mission to monitor Rum as an excuse.

But for the safety of Conan and Ai, she will have to reduce the number of times she meets them and treat them as ordinary children.

After sorting out her thoughts, Akikawa Sarana once again breathed a sigh of relief.

"Not bad, not bad. To sum it up, it's good news. It can all be dealt with."

Akikawa Sarana muttered softly to herself as she returned to the photo album screen on her phone and put it back in her bag.

"Let's go home~"

The system that had been paying close attention to its host knew that this sentence was addressed to it, [Great, let's go home~]
