Conan: Goodbye, Brewery, I'm running away

"It's also possible that he didn't escape and was killed by me."

Akikawa Sarina walked to the kitchen and found a kettle to get some water. "I shot him twice out of anger when I entered the lab."

Hearing her say this, Vermouth chuckled, "That's really your style. Where did you hit him?"

Akikawa Sarana said lightly: "Right palm and knee."

"Okay, I'll tell Gin about this later. It would be best if Unigu died in the laboratory, otherwise we'll have to spend more time dealing with him."

"Why, the organization doesn't need his experiments?" Akikawa Sarina's tone was a little sarcastic, "Before it was Curacao, this time it was Bourbon, who will it be next time? And the organization shouldn't give up on this kind of experiments, right?"

"The boss has temporarily stopped this project."

Vermouth highlighted what happened after Akikawa Sarina left her. "I informed the boss about Bourbon's situation after receiving your email. His condition probably didn't meet the boss's expectations. In addition to Curacao, this project has failed twice. Now the person in charge is missing, so the boss has stopped this project for now."

Akikawa Sarana asked, "Where's Bourbon? Will the organization conduct further examinations on him?"

"Yes, so you will stay in the United States for the time being and don't leave. You can move freely after the inspection is over. By the way, where are you now?"

Akikawa Sarina did not hide this residence from the organization, so there was no need to hide it from Vermouth. "We are at my residence that is closest to the Los Angeles airport."

Vermouth naturally knew this, "Okay, I will bring the second person in charge of this project to help Bourbon check it out later."

Perhaps knowing that Akikawa Sarana didn't like this project, she added, "Just a quick check on Bourbon's situation."

Understanding the hidden meaning in Vermouth's words, Akikawa Sarina did not object. Even if Vermouth had not said so, she would not have objected. If Zero wanted to continue undercover without being suspected by the organization, he had to go through this journey.

She couldn't let all her years of hard work go to waste.

"Okay, let me know when you get here."

Vermouth's voice was filled with laughter. "Since Bourbon has lost his memory, the person he needs most right now is you. I won't disturb your world of two. You two should cultivate your relationship. I will go to your place after the New Year."

"Didn't you advise me to break up with him?" Akikawa Sarana asked knowingly.

"There is no need for this situation for the time being..."

Vermouth has always known that Akikawa Sarina was unwilling to separate from Bourbon. "Take this opportunity to make him trust you completely. It will be better for you than breaking up with him. Regardless of whether he will remember the past in the future, with Bourbon's personality, he will definitely be more on your side, right?"

She had advised Limu to break up with Bourbon before because the two of them were not on the same path, but that might not be the case in the future. Bourbon was framed by the organization, and he must be dissatisfied with the organization.

If Limou had taken advantage of the situation and done what she should have done during Bourbon's most vulnerable period, she wouldn't have to be the bad guy.

While listening to Vermouth talking on the phone, Akikawa Sarina raised her eyes and glanced casually at the corner leading to the bedroom, then retracted her gaze.

Akikawa Sarina understood what Vermouth meant, and her voice became a little softer. "I see. Then we will stay in the United States for the time being."

Apart from other aspects, in fact, Vermouth has always been doing things for her good when it comes to her relationship with Bourbon.

The perceptive Vermouth noticed the change in Akikawa Sarina's voice. She smiled and said slowly, "Okay, that's all for now. Keep in touch via email."

After hanging up the phone, Akikawa Sarana looked at the corner and said with a smile: "Toru, you're awake? How do you feel now?"

She turned on the system's surveillance camera, so she could naturally see Toru Amuro hiding in the corner and listening to her conversation with Vermouth after waking up.

Toru Amuro, who had originally planned to return to his room but was suddenly caught eavesdropping, hesitated for a moment. He walked out from the shadow of the corner with an expressionless face.

From Akikawa Sarana's perspective, it was just that her boyfriend was caught eavesdropping, and he was so embarrassed that he didn't know what expression to use to face her, so he simply did nothing.

"Pfft..."

Seeing him so embarrassed that he didn't know what to do, and a little angry because he heard her talking with Vermouth, Akikawa Sarana couldn't help but laugh out loud.

She noticed that he was ignoring her, and was obviously a little annoyed by her smile.

Akikawa Sarina coughed lightly and restrained her smile, "You just heard what I said, right?"

Toru Amuro walked to the place where the clothes hangers were placed in the living room, looked at the clothes placed on the sofa, and then looked at the clothes on the hangers. He was angry and decided not to wear the set that his girlfriend picked for him. He wanted to pick one for himself.

Seeing that he was still ignoring her, Akikawa Sarana walked over to Amuro Toru with two glasses of water, "Well, it seems that he heard the key words, so he got angry."

Toru Amuro, who was secretly picking clothes for himself, turned his head to glance at Akikawa Sarina, his cheeks puffed up unconsciously, and then he looked away.

Seeing that he was obviously behaving like an elementary school student, Akikawa Sarana cleared her throat again. She couldn't laugh. If she laughed again, it would be too late to save the situation.

"Did you hear me say we broke up just now?"

As Amuro Toru was about to reach for the clothes hanger, he paused, and after a moment he replied in a muffled voice, "Yeah."

"I knew you were angry about this."

Akikawa Sarina put down the cup in her hand, walked to her boyfriend, and tapped his smooth chest twice, "That was what we two had agreed to do before to deceive Vermouth. You are angry now, it must be because you can't remember this part, otherwise you would definitely not be angry."

There was some confusion in Amuro Toru's voice, "Did you discuss this?"

Akikawa Sarina turned around, picked up the clothes she had placed on the sofa and handed them to him, "Yes, that's what we discussed."

"Aren't you planning to break up with me?" Toru Amuro didn't take the clothes, but asked again.

"of course not."

Akikawa Sarina raised her eyes and stared into his eyes, "We had an agreement on this matter before."

Amuro Toru was no longer angry, and a smile appeared on his face. He reached out and took the clothes that Akikawa Sarina handed to him. He smiled and said to his girlfriend: "I'm sorry, I forgot."

Akikawa Sarana looked at her golden retriever and smiled again. She couldn't help but touch his abdominal muscles. "Okay, I forgive you."

Amuro Toru's ears instantly turned red after being attacked suddenly. Although he remembered many such incidents, but...

There was a hint of panic in his voice, "Sarina, I'm going to go change."

------

Seeing the man who seemed calm but was actually in a panic pushing away the two clothes hanger carts next to him, Akikawa Sarina couldn't help but smile.

But this time she was very considerate and turned her back, covering her mouth and laughing secretly, so that her boyfriend, who had suddenly become shy, would not see her expression.

Toru Amuro naturally heard the noise behind him, and the heat in his ears increased a little, but the smile at the corners of his lips also widened a lot.

He had not intended to eavesdrop on his girlfriend's phone call with someone else. He had just walked out of the room and was about to say hello to Sarina, but before he turned the corner he heard the words "break up". After that, he involuntarily stopped and hid in the corner.

At the same time, he didn't know why he felt so sour in his heart, as if something like this had happened before...

Toru Amuro paused for a moment and looked back at his girlfriend who was still grinning with her back to him.

There were loopholes in Sarina's explanation just now... So were the years that were blank in his memory a result of problems in their relationship?

He just slept again and seemed to remember some people. In his memory, there were several people who seemed to have a good relationship with him and Sarina, but he couldn't see their faces clearly...

He was worried, and after Akikawa Sarina had laughed enough, she opened her phone again. The two of them hadn't eaten for a long time, so they needed to ask a nearby restaurant to send some food over.

Although her house was cleaned regularly, there was no food in it. She didn't know how to cook, so the kitchen was very clean, except for a kettle for boiling water, there was not even a pot.

[Sarina, our plane has landed. You can call us in 10 minutes.]

Akikawa Sarina paused while choosing a restaurant, her eyes gleaming with happiness, "Okay."

finally come.

Although she can handle the current situation well by herself, after experiencing the feeling of not fighting alone, she now likes to work hard with her companions.

Moreover, Zhuofu is also an indispensable piece of the puzzle in Zero's life. They grew up together. Zhuofu is not only Zero's childhood friend, but also his brother and family member.

After choosing a restaurant and calling to have the food delivered to her residence, Akikawa Sarana was just about to call Morobushi Keimitsu later, but unexpectedly another call came in first.

Seeing the unfamiliar number but the familiar area, Akikawa Sarina looked back at the corner and answered the call while walking towards the sun room.

As soon as she answered the phone, Akikawa Sarana heard Miyano Akemi's voice on the other end of the line, "Nai-chan, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, Mingmei."

Fearing that Amuro Toru, who was changing clothes, might hear her, Akikawa Sarina spoke softly, "I'm sorry that you've been busy with our affairs until now."

Hearing her say this, Miyano Akemi felt a little angry and a little helpless, "What do you mean by that? My sisters and I have troubled you with so many things, but I have never been so polite to you. Why should you be polite to me?"

"Okay, I'm welcome."

Hearing the emotion in her voice, Akikawa Sarana knew that if she continued, she would make Mingmei angry. "Calling at this time, is there any news from Sicily?"

When she woke up, she saw the email Mingmei replied to her, saying that she would help her inquire about Sicily. She called again so soon, so she must have contacted someone in Sicily.

There was a hint of uncertainty in Miyano Akemi's voice. "Well, there is news. They agreed to help, but..."

There is no such thing as a free lunch. The favor from the last cooperation cannot be used for this one. Akikawa Sarana naturally understands this principle. "What do they want?"

"No, no, no, that's not it. Someone from their side told me that they can't contact the person who can do this for the time being, and they need time to contact that person...

And they said that for Amuro-kun's safety, they needed to see Amuro-kun's specific situation to avoid causing secondary harm to Amuro-kun. "

“Are people in Sicily so kind?”

Akikawa Sarana found it a little unbelievable. How could a mafia that made the organization so afraid that they dared not set foot in their territory be so easy to talk to?

"They are really kind-hearted..." Miyano Akemi thought of the scenes she saw from time to time in the nursing home, and felt a little disillusioned. "I called to tell you about this, Na-chan, don't worry too much, this matter will definitely be resolved."

Hearing Miyano Akemi's consolation, Akikawa Sarina's expression softened a lot, "Okay. But you said that they need to see the details first, how do they want to see it?

We can’t leave the United States for the time being. If we need to go to Italy, it may be after the New Year.”

As Akikawa Sarana spoke, she began to calculate the time in her mind. What excuse could she use to go to Italy before returning to Japan?

Miyano Akemi's next words interrupted Akikawa Sarina's thoughts, "There's no need to come all the way to Italy. The people in Sicily said that their leader will be returning to Japan with his family after the New Year. They said that we can just meet in Japan then."

"Is that so?" Akikawa Sarana breathed a sigh of relief, "That will be much more convenient..."

Noticing that her boyfriend had already changed his clothes and tidied up the master bedroom and the side bedroom, Akikawa Sarana said to Miyano Akemi on the other end of the phone: "Then I'll ask Akemi to help with the communication."

"Do not worry."

Miyano Akemi's voice was as gentle as ever, "You and Amuro-kun are both my good friends, and this is what I should do."

After hanging up the phone, Akikawa Sarina looked at Toru Amuro who came to see her, and waved at him with a smile through the glass sunroom.

A moment later, Amuro Toru walked into the sun room wearing the home clothes that Akikawa Sarina picked out, "Why are you here?"

"I was on the phone just now. There are some things I can't tell you right now."

Akikawa Sarana didn't want to beat around the bush with Amuro Toru, as she knew that the other party was extremely insecure because he had lost most of his memories.

In addition, she knew that her boyfriend had developed a subconscious suspicious character due to his undercover life over the years. Hiding things would only make him uncomfortable and suspicious about what was going on, so she chose to tell him directly.
