Conan: Life between Green Plum and Skyfall

Chapter 199 The Gift Left by Elena

Of course, lessons are lessons, but after the training, Xiaolan also did not forget to give Conan some benefits as compensation. For example, the benefits after the previous training.

In response, Xiaolan just said with a blushing face that it was not the first time it happened, so it didn't matter if it happened again.

Moreover, the main purpose of this benefit is to give her an excuse to continue teaching Conan a lesson next time.

In response, Conan could only say:

Yes, yes, everything you said is right.

Anyway, he is the one who benefits in the end, so he naturally won't refuse.

And when Ai saw Conan's bruised face at night, she showed a hint of surprise:

"Didn't you go to exercise with Xiaolan? How did you get beaten like this?"

"No way! This is clearly Xiaolan's care for me! A strict teacher produces a good student. Only by being treated harshly can I improve better and survive the threat of the organization!"

When seeing Conan with a miserable face saying these words righteously, Ai could hardly maintain the cold expression on her face.

Well, okay, since you are the person involved, whatever you say is right.

Thus, this farce came to an end.

However, looking at Ai in front of him, Conan suddenly thought of something.

"Speaking of which, Mingmei seems to have a gift for Ai, right? I'll ask about it later."

To be honest, Conan had never actually seen that case, but he had heard of such an incident when he was watching the second creation in his previous life.

He had no recollection of what happened in this case. However, it didn't matter whether he had any recollection of the case or not; he was just looking for something.

As long as he found the thing, he could leave. As for what else happened there? That didn't matter.

"Why, great detective, are you still savoring the 'love education' Xiaolan gave you?"

Looking at Conan who was still thinking about something, Ai couldn't help but tease.

On the one hand, she was still waiting to go to the spiritual space to conduct experiments; on the other hand, she was accustomed to watching Conan fall asleep, and she always felt like something was missing when Conan was still asleep.

The result is that she is now having trouble sleeping.

"No, I was thinking about other things."

Looking at Ai's pupils, Conan showed a smile on his face.

If I give her the videotape of her mother, I wonder what kind of expression will be on Ai's face? Well, Conan said he is very curious about this.

"Okay, go to sleep quickly. If everything goes well, you'll know what I'm thinking in a few days."

Seeing that Ai wanted to ask more questions, Conan turned over and fell into a dream.

This kind of thing must be treated as a surprise. If Ai knew about it in advance, the effect would not be so good!

"?"

She looked at Conan suspiciously, and seeing that he was really not going to tell her, Xiao Ai stopped asking questions. Looking at Conan's sleeping face, she gradually fell into a dream.

On the other side, in the organization, Vermouth was about to use her connections to investigate Kudo Shinichi and Edogawa Conan's information when she was suddenly contacted by Gin.

"Gin, what do you want from me?"

Sister Bei picked up the phone impatiently. She had important things to do now!

"I'd like to ask you what you were planning to do by showing up at that inn without authorization."

Gin's cold voice came from the other end of the phone.

In response to this, Sister Bei lit the cigarette in her hand with disdain and said quietly:

"What I want to do seems to have nothing to do with you. Don't forget, this is my freedom!"

"you!"

Gin's voice rose several notches after hearing Vermouth's reply. That was why he didn't want to contact this group of mystics, especially this woman. Every interaction with them made him furious.

"Forget it, let's get down to business. This is the boss's order."

"? What did he ask me to do?"

Although she was very unhappy, she was not in a position to refuse her boss's request. Therefore, Sister Bei also put out the lady's cigarette in her hand with an unhappy look on her face and asked Gin coldly.

"Play as Akai Tsutomu and try to infiltrate M16."

After hearing Gin's words, Sister Bei frowned slightly:

"To London?"

"Yes. This is the task the boss has assigned you. Don't delay."

After saying that, Gin hung up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone on the other end of the line, Sister Bei's face instantly darkened. She really wanted to refuse this mission, but this was her boss's request, and she couldn't refuse.

"It happened at this time, damn it."

After calming down, Bei Jie suppressed her disgust and packed her bag. The investigation into Kudo Shinichi and Conan's intelligence had to be put on hold for the time being. She didn't want this information to be known to other people in the organization.

However, even so, when she was packing her luggage and changing her appearance, her heart was always filled with resentment.

"What kind of bullshit freedom is this? There's no such thing as freedom! It's just that I've gone from being an ordinary lackey to a higher-class personal pet."

As she spoke, a sad smile appeared on Sister Bei's face.

......

Conan, who didn't know that Vermouth had left the island country due to orders, came to Chengshi's clinic early the next morning. He brought Mingmei and Ai to a small corner. Then, he looked at Mingmei with a puzzled look on his face and asked in a low voice:

"Sister Mingmei, did you hide something somewhere?"

"?"

Hearing this, Mingmei was stunned for a moment, then suddenly reacted.

Indeed, before carrying out the mission, he went to the office of his father's friend and hid something there.

"That's true, but Conan, how did you... Never mind, you won't tell me even if I ask."

Seeing Conan's mysterious expression, Mingmei gave up asking further questions.

"That was something I left for Shiho. I had thought that after she and I escaped safely from the organization, I would find it and give it to Shiho. But a lot of things happened in between, and I forgot about it for a while."

Mingmei said, shaking her head helplessly.

"It's okay. Now that I remember it, can you tell me the location of that office? Cheng Shi and I can go get it together?"

"Xiao Ai and I will join you."

Mingmei smiled and shook her head:

"Although it was just a careless remark at the time, I did say that I would bring my sister to them."

"Are you sure? Vermouth is back. She's a master of disguise. I'm not sure if she'll notice the disguise on your face."

Looking at the smile on Mingmei's face, Conan asked with some confusion.

"Well, by the way, I also want to go see that designer named Imai again. I hope he doesn't do anything stupid."

After hearing Mingmei's words, although Conan was not impressed by the case, he did remember one thing: the murderer had been able to persist until now entirely because of Mingmei.
