Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

"I haven't been to the store for a long time..." Akikawa Sarana noticed someone staring at her in the corner, so she deliberately said this in a sarcastic tone.

Especially since her system had already started making champagne calls in her head, and after hearing Tongzi's calls, she wanted to go home and ask Ling to make them for her.

"Would you like to name someone first?"

The guide respectfully asked that the guest was here to keep an appointment with the guest in private room No. 1. The guests in that room were the most distinguished guests in their store, so the guest could also give priority to choosing the waiters in their store.

Akikawa Sarina glanced at the panel meaningfully again, "No need, just take me there."

"hai~" The guide bowed respectfully to Akikawa Sarina, then walked in front of her and led her to private room No. 1.

Arriving at the door of the private room, before the usher was about to open the door, Akikawa Sarana stopped him and said, "You should leave first."

After saying that, she did not forget to tip the guide according to the rules of such places.

After everyone left, Akikawa Sarana raised her hand and knocked gently on the door a few times. Without waiting for a response, she pushed the door open and walked in.

In the room, Rum was already sitting on the sofa with a glass of wine, and it looked like he had been waiting for a long time.

Akikawa Sarina put on her expressionless face as if she was in the organization, "What's the matter with meeting me in a place like this at this time?"

She always behaved like this when facing the members of the organization except Vermouth. After all, in name, all codename members had the same status, and she was just a little expressionless and her personality was a little more uncertain. Compared with other perverts in the organization, she was nothing. People like Gin and Rum had long been accustomed to these various people in the organization.

Rum extended his hand to Akikawa Sarina, motioning her to sit down opposite him.

After everyone sat down, Rum spoke the first words after Akikawa Sarina entered the room, "What would you like to drink?"

Akikawa Sarana shook her head, "I wouldn't dare eat anything from a place like this."

Who knows if something special will be added.

Without waiting for Rum to say anything else, Akikawa Sarina continued, "Aren't you playing a part-time job game in that sushi restaurant? Why did you suddenly want to see me?"

Rum just looked at Akikawa Sarana, as if he was recalling something.

Akikawa Sarana, who knew Rum's past skills, stopped talking and let him look at her.

After a moment, Rum finally spoke, "There is a mission for you to do in Nagano."

Hearing that it was another mission, Akikawa Sarana frowned, "The organization has given me a long vacation to recuperate. The boss has approved it. I don't need to do any missions during my rest period."

"It's not a difficult task, it's almost like a vacation."

Rum put the wine glass in his hand on the table and said, "Just keep an eye on one person and observe all his actions."

"Who?" Akikawa Sarana moved her eyes from the bottle of wine on the table to rum.

Rum took out a photo and pushed it in front of Akikawa Sarina, "He, Kuroda Bei."

Akikawa Sarana took the photo, looked at it carefully, and then put it back on the table. "I remember that this person has been transferred from Nagano to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department as a management officer of the First Investigation Division? Even if he worked in Nagano for a period of time before, he should be monitored in Tokyo instead of Nagano now, right?"

Rum was already getting impatient. "He will appear in Nagano later. You just need to keep an eye on his movements in Nagano."

Akikawa Sarana looked at the photo floating on the ground and nodded indifferently, "I see, you said to treat it as a vacation. But please allow me to say one more thing, if you really have any plans, it's best to find someone else to do this task."

Rum stood up and looked at Akikawa Sarina with a blank expression, with a smile on his face, "No, you are the most suitable one."

He walked out after he finished speaking, and then stopped after a few steps. "By the way, are you curious about Bourbon's experience of working here?"

Akikawa Sarina deliberately revealed some of her emotions that she hadn't concealed well, and then pretended to be a little aware of her emotions being exposed and said stubbornly, "I didn't."

Rum looked at Akikawa Sarina with an expression that said, "I see through everything." He said earnestly, "Limu, as an elder who has watched you grow up, I think I should give you a piece of advice. A man like Bourbon is only suitable for playing around. Don't invest real feelings in him. He is very deceitful."

"By the way, this place is owned by me. I'll have someone send you a card later. You can come here anytime you want in the future."

After saying that, Rum gave Akikawa Sarina an expression that said "you understand, I understand too" and then left the private room.

Only Akikawa Sarana was left standing there confused.

No, why did Rum call her here today? Was his unusual behavior simply to sow discord between her and Zero? Or did he have another purpose?

Akikawa Sarana was completely confused for a moment.

------

However, no matter what he wants to do, Rum must have bad intentions towards Zero.

Thinking about what she had just seen at the door, based on the reasoning method she learned from Zero and Conan, she was able to analyze that before she came here today, the signboard that was originally placed there should not be the one she saw today.

Before she came, Ling had told her that the last time he came here to work part-time was to get close to the president of a company, and he never came again after finding what he wanted. According to the time that Ling said, which male escort shop would still list a part-time job that had not been there for almost a year? Aren't they afraid that the customer will point out that the job will ruin the shop's reputation if the job is not there?

So today, all of this was deliberately arranged by Rum for her to see.

Akikawa Sarina's eyes fell on the bottle of wine on the table. Bourbon...

Rum's temper was too impatient, and even this kind of provocation seemed too obvious because of his impatience.

However, thanks to his impatient temper, they were able to find loopholes in him a little easier than others when they were plotting against Rum.

"laugh......"

Knowing that there were surveillance cameras in the room, Akikawa Sarana started acting.

She sneered with a displeased look on her face, then picked up the almost full bottle of wine on the table, turned the bottle over and poured the liquid directly into the trash can.

The amber liquor reflected an attractive luster under the light in the room, just like Bourbon himself, tempting and dangerous.

But Akikawa Sarina's eyes were just as dangerous. She looked at the empty bottle in her hand expressionlessly and simply let it fall to the ground.

Feeling that she had acted well enough for Rum behind her, Akikawa Sarina was in no mood to waste her time in such a place, so she turned around and left the room. Rum had already delayed her original plan to spend a long time with Zero tonight.

However, although the Rum man was impatient, his perception of danger was obvious enough. Judging from his actions tonight, he was aware that danger was approaching him.

......

Nagano one week later.

Akikawa Sarana raised her hand to catch a falling snowflake, secretly sighing in her heart that time passed so quickly and it was snowing season again.

After she met with Rum that day, she received a mission email from him. After asking the boss and getting an answer that she wanted, she simply followed Rum's idea and came to Nagano.

As for her ability to contact the BOSS directly... after the BOSS revealed their relationship in that base, she, like Vermouth, gained the right to contact the BOSS directly, and she no longer had to inform the BOSS through Vermouth regarding the Rum investigation, but could report directly to the BOSS bypassing Vermouth.

"Akikawa."

Morofushi Keimitsu came in from outside carrying two lunch boxes. When he saw Akikawa Sarina reaching out to catch the snowflakes, a look of disapproval flashed across his face.

"The weather is cold, you'll easily catch a cold like this." Zero asked him to take good care of Akikawa.

Akikawa Sarana naturally heard the emotion in her friend's tone. She awkwardly withdrew her hand that was stretched out of the window, "Zhu Fu, I am much better now than before. This little bit of low temperature is okay."

However, although she said this, she obediently closed the window with her hands and turned to walk towards Zhufu Jingguang.

"That being said, you still have to be careful." Zhu Fu Jingguang saw that she was obedient, and his brows returned to his usual gentle state, "If you catch a cold, it will still be very uncomfortable."

As he spoke, he handed the disposable tableware in his hand to Akikawa Sarana. They had to carry out the operation in Tokyo at the same time, and everyone was very busy. They had no time to cook for themselves, so they basically ate boxed lunches.

"hai~hai~" Akikawa Sarina took the cutlery handed to her by Morifushi Keimitsu with an expression that said I won't dare to do it again next time, and opened the lunch box in front of her.

"Today is curry rice."

Zhu Fu Jingguang also sat down and said with a smile: "They said that it would be more comfortable to eat some hot curry in this kind of weather."

The meals were prepared by other public security personnel. Neither he nor Qiuchuan were picky eaters, so they ate whatever everyone prepared for the past few days.

Akikawa Sarana nodded, "Indeed, eating something warm makes my brain come alive."

And curry is quite spicy, which does warm the body.

"Are you going out after dinner?" Akikawa Sarina looked up at Morobushi Keimitsu who was sitting opposite her. They were not the type of people who wouldn't talk while eating or sleeping, so they would chat while eating.

Zhu Fu Jingguang swallowed the food in his mouth and nodded, "According to the time sent by Zero, the time is just right."

"Have you already informed Mr. Gao Ming?" Akikawa Sarana chose to use this method to distinguish the two brothers.

"Well, Brother Gao Ming already knows. If they really meet by chance due to some unexpected circumstances, he will pretend that he doesn't know Zero at all."

When talking about his brother, Zhu Fujing's eyes curved with a smile, "Are you going to that wedding to join in the fun?"

"go."

Akikawa Sarina's lips curled up slightly, "I'm going to perform a 'use and counter-use' drama in front of Rum."

"What reason do you need?" Zhu Fujingguang took two more bites of curry rice.

"No need for any reason, just go ahead."

Akikawa Sarana muttered, "Even if they are a couple in the organization, they should know each other's movements."

"That makes sense." Zhu Fushiguri felt that it made perfect sense. "Director Kuroda is ready. He will make sure that Limu won't find out anything."

Akikawa Sarina, who had just finished showing off her meal, made an OK gesture to Morofushi Keimitsu.

......

The opportunity that Rum mentioned before was a banquet. The son of the chief of the Nagano Prefecture Police Headquarters was getting married, and Kuroda was invited to attend the wedding. Although he had been transferred back to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department Headquarters, he had been taken care of by the other party many times when he was the chief of the First Investigation Division in Nagano Prefecture, so he would definitely come to attend this wedding.

This time, Akikawa Sarana's identity is a relative or friend of the bride, which means she is a friend of a friend.

As for this friend, he is naturally a member of the organization. His past experience has been investigated by Zhu Fu Jingguang. Of course, this friend has also been listed on the public security list, waiting to be settled together in the future.

Akikawa Sarana parked the car in the designated location, and the man who had been waiting beside her quickly helped her open the driver's door.

The man had a polite smile on his face, and hidden beneath that smile was his respect for the codenamed members of the organization, but not much.

"Lord Limu." The man greeted Akikawa Sarana in a low voice.

Akikawa Sarana withdrew her gaze from the man. This man was a member of Rum's organization, not just his confidants who knew his secrets. "From now on, you don't have to worry about me. Just go about your business."

"Yes, Lord Limu."

Seeing the man's tense mood, Akikawa Sarana said again: "Don't worry, my mission is not to cause trouble at this wedding, so don't worry about the bride's wedding going wrong."

Hearing what Akikawa Sarana said, the man who was following Akikawa Sarana paused and was about to explain something, but after meeting those eyes that were emotionless yet seemed to see through everything, he retracted his excuse.

He said again, "Yes, Lord Limu."

He didn't come to this wedding just to expand his network. The bride was also his friend. Although he was not a good person, he didn't want his friend's wedding to be disrupted by organizational tasks.

Listening to the sound of Akikawa Sarina's high heels stepping on the ground beside him, the man's slightly frowned brows unconsciously relaxed.

As they turned the corner and headed toward the registration desk at the lobby entrance, the suffocating superior-subordinate atmosphere between the two people instantly turned into a familiar and relaxed state of friendship.

The two walked to the registration area, handed their invitation letters and red envelopes to the reception staff, and wrote their names in the registration book.

When Akikawa Sarina signed, she glanced at the familiar names in front of her own and raised her eyebrows slightly. Everyone is here, so can this wedding really go smoothly?

I don't know how long I will have to hold on to the unfinished part, I'm covering my head ()
