Chapter 313 Vodka: Eat more, brother
Chapter 313 Vodka: Eat more, brother
I have made a lot of progress!
Gin never thought that Shirley, an autistic child who was even more shy than Junerick, would one day take the initiative to introduce herself to Vodka.
"Grace Ahara?" Gin repeated the name, which sounded much more pleasant than Miyano Shiho's.
"Mr. Kurosawa? Why are you here too?" After washing his hands, Yin Jiu came out of the kitchen and saw a room full of crows gathered, surrounding his poor researcher.
"I invited you." Vermouth raised the corner of her mouth. "I haven't seen Grace Ahara for a long time. I remember the last time we had dinner together was when we were in the United States. I was with Kurosawa and the others at that time. If you didn't lose your memory, you should remember it clearly, right?"
Vermouth's eyes reflected the shadow of Haibara Ai, making it difficult to tell whether her words were true or false.
Also being stared at by several pairs of obscure eyes, Haibara Ai's hand couldn't help but slide off the table and clenched into a fist on her knees.
She is not as strong as she looks, but she cannot show her vulnerability. Vermouth obviously has doubts about her identity, and the questions she asked just now might be a trick on her.
Haibara Ai analyzed calmly: Maybe she was exposed when she played Conan last time, and Vermouth would appear in Yin Jiu's house. Maybe it was a notice from Amuro Toru.
And they don't have solid evidence yet.
Thinking of this, Huihara Ai's fingers touched the porcelain cup again, rubbing it unconsciously to wipe off the fingerprints, and then raised her head with a confused expression, "I'm so sorry, I don't remember anything at all."
"Okay, okay, that was a long time ago." Yin Jiu, who had gained a lot of emotional points, came 'late' with two cups of coffee in his hands, and handed them to Gin and Vodka respectively. He glanced at the two of them from an angle that Huiyuan Ai couldn't see, "You two still have to work overtime tonight, right? Have some coffee to refresh yourself."
"Thank you!"
Glenfiddich is so thoughtful!
Vodka took the cup with both hands, not noticing the subtle atmosphere between his colleagues, and very considerately moved aside, "Ge...Yin Jiu, come sit over here."
"Oh." Yin Jiu responded. Now that everyone was here, there was no point in letting Shirley hide. Fortunately, Vermouth and Gin knew about it, so they could just treat it as a team-building activity to celebrate Sherry's return in advance.
At this moment, Haibara Ai didn't know that she was back on the organization's whitelist, and was instantly choked by Vodka's enthusiastic expression.
"..."
Although nothing bad has happened to her for the time being, Xiaojiu is in such a difficult situation in the organization that she might be implicated in Shirley's defection if she is not careful.
Huibara Ai's fists on her knees trembled slightly, and her mind flashed back to the time when she saw Yin Jiu pointing a knife at her outside this house.
No, she couldn't let this happen!
"Xiao Ai?...Xiao Ai?"
Yin Jiu waved his hand in front of Huibara Ai, and seeing that the little girl's attention had returned, he reached out and took the empty cup from Huibara Ai's hand.
"Are you starving, kid?"
As Yin Jiu spoke, he reached out to pick the person up, "It's time to eat. We're having Sukiyaki tonight."
Haibara Ai has been taken care of by Yin Jiu these days. She was a little unresponsive when she was picked up. Now her hands were on Yin Jiu's shoulders.
So cold!
The weather in Japan has entered the height of summer, but Yin Jiu's body was completely cold at night. She even felt a little chilly.
Before Haibara Ai could examine further, a blue vein appeared on Gin's forehead.
Squeamish!
The murderous crow claws easily bypassed Yin Jiu, grabbed the back of the seven-year-old girl's collar and lifted her up.
"..." Huiyuan Ai turned her face away in embarrassment: Very good, this technique is still a formula she is familiar with.
The tender winery flower bud was carried limply, looking completely powerless.
But from Yin Jiu's perspective, the corners of Sherry's lips were curled up in an obvious and beautiful arc, and he immediately felt happy.
His guess turned out to be correct. The emotional anchor between Shirley and Miyano Akemi was completely destroyed, and Shirley's feelings for the organization were revived.
After all, she is a pure second-generation black who has been carefully raised by the organization for eighteen years. Perhaps even Shirley herself did not realize what kind of emotional sustenance the organization brought her.
"I don't think I invited you guys over."
The person who is least welcoming to Gin in this room is Toru Amuro.
Toru Amuro had just finished cooking and came out with the tableware when he saw the uninvited guests in the room. He almost broke the wooden block in his hand and his whole face twisted.
Yin Jiu, however, finished visually inspecting the dishes in the kitchen pot and took out two new tablewares. He was in a good mood and said, "Chris called them over, but it doesn't matter. We cooked more dishes today, and it will be more lively for everyone to eat together."
After saying that, Yin Jiu did not forget to move two more chairs over, and considerately gave his wooden chair with a backrest to Gin, "Mr. Kurosawa, please sit down."
The acting was quite realistic.
Gin sneered and let go of Shirley, then saw Amuro Toru handing him a pair of chopsticks provocatively.
"I'm sorry, this is the only tableware Xiaojiu has at home. Since there are so many people here today, please make do with it."
At the last dinner party, Toru Amuro discovered that Gin was a little unfamiliar with using chopsticks.
Today, apart from a few appetizers that were not very filling, the only things he prepared were white rice and Sukiyaki hot pot.
The original amount for 4 people now has to be eaten by 6 people. The extra two people are still able to eat enough to organize the young laborers.
With such a combination of personnel, it is not easy to use the original ingredients to make a dinner that everyone can eat. He deliberately gave Gin the tableware that he was least familiar with, secretly making things difficult for the organization's model worker.
"..." Gin took the chopsticks in silence. He always felt that something bad was going to happen, because every time he ate with Glenfiddich and used chopsticks, there was a similar atmosphere.
Gin looked at Yin Jiu with a uncertain gaze, which only earned him a slightly shy smile.
"Did I do something wrong?" Yin Jiu pretended to be confused, took a mouthful of rice, and mumbled incoherently.
“Not at all.” Vermouth also had an expression of wanting to watch the fun and pick up some food for herself slowly.
You can’t blame Glenfiddich for what happened to Bourbon.
For a moment, Gin's face became extremely strange, and in Shirley's eyes, this expression was even more terrifying.
"Xiao Ai, have some mushrooms." Yin Jiu used the serving chopsticks to pick up a mushroom and put it in Huiyuan Ai's bowl to comfort her. "The pot is a little high. If you can't reach it, I'll help you get it."
After being reminded by Yin Jiu, the sensible assistant Vodka immediately followed suit and used the serving chopsticks to pick up a piece of beef for his eldest brother, "Brother, there is beef here, eat more."
