Chapter 477 Vermouth and Ran Mouri
Chapter 477 Vermouth and Ran Mouri
Not to mention that Shinichi Kudo is currently in the midst of a catastrophe.
Qi Ming, on the other hand, seemed quite cheerful.
There were men and women, old and young. If Qi Ming, who was walking at the front, were holding a red flag, it would look exactly like a tour group leading a group tour.
The children sang melodies and songs they couldn't understand at all, and for a moment they were no longer saddened by Ai Haibara and Conan dropping out of school.
As we walked from the school road into the bustling city center, the three children's singing gradually subsided.
It seems like we've been walking for about half an hour, right?
Yuan Tai took a breath and looked at Qi Ming, asking a question.
"Brother Qi Ming, where are we eating?"
Upon hearing Yuan Tai's voice, Qi Ming stopped and looked at Yuan Tai with a puzzled expression.
"how could I know?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone stopped in their tracks and stared blankly at Qi Ming.
Shiho Miyano asked Qi Ming with a blank expression.
"Aren't you leading the way?"
"is it?"
Qi Ming scratched his head in confusion.
I was just walking at the front, so how could you say he was leading the way?
"You're the one who's treating us to dinner, so shouldn't you be the one deciding where we'll eat?"
"..."
Shiho Miyano suddenly realized that what Qi Ming said made a lot of sense.
She instinctively assumed that Qi Ming was leading the way since she saw him walking at the front.
her question.
She glanced at the surrounding area and remembered that she and her sister had been to a restaurant here before, and the food was pretty good.
"...Never mind, I'll lead the way."
Seeing that Shiho Miyano had taken his guide's position, Qi Ming looked at Shiho Miyano and asked curiously.
"Speaking of which, do you have any money?"
"Humph."
Shiho Miyano rolled her eyes at Qi Ming, then waved a bank card between two fingers in front of him.
"Where do you think I went last night? I've been in this organization for so long, I have my own savings, you know."
Although she was confined to the organization like a caged bird before, she still received the benefits she was entitled to, and she actually had quite a lot of savings.
"...You mean the money you've deposited in the organization?"
"otherwise……"
Just as Shiho Miyano was about to reply, she noticed that Qi Ming's expression suddenly became somewhat strange, and a bad premonition rose in her heart.
"what do you want to say?"
"Our organization may be loosely managed, but we are quite thorough in dealing with traitors."
Qi Ming looked at Shiho Miyano with a forced smile.
"After you defected, all your money was confiscated by the organization. Oh, by the way, I was the one who confiscated it. All your money is with me now."
"..."
Shiho Miyano paused for a moment, then quickly opened her phone and checked her online banking.
zero.
She wasn't even left with a single cent.
"...Give me my money back!"
"Okay."
Qi Ming took out an IOU, scribbled something on it, and said casually.
"Even if you've already paid off the interest, you can continue with the remaining principal."
"Scoundrel!"
"Thank you for the compliment."
……
A few minutes later, at the rooftop restaurant of a high-rise building.
A typical Western restaurant, the entire interior is decorated with a strong Western style.
The display board in front of the store was all written in English, the pianist inside was playing music, and the customers were all dressed in formal attire, each looking quite respectable.
"They have good taste, coming to such a high-end restaurant."
Seeing the uniformed waiters inside, Qi Ming couldn't help but sigh.
"I thought we were just going to some hole-in-the-wall restaurant, ordering a bowl of noodles and leaving."
Shiho Miyano rolled her eyes at Qi Ming.
"Hmph, I'm not as vulgar as you."
"I'm a commoner, after all, this restaurant must be very expensive. If I can't afford the bill, I'll probably have to stay and wash dishes."
Hearing Qi Ming's sarcastic remarks, Shiho Miyano snorted and a charming smile appeared on her face as she asked Qi Ming with great interest.
"Would you be willing to stay and wash the dishes?"
"How could I refuse? I'll just buy the whole store and have you be a waiter, a plate clerk, a front desk employee, and a chef all at once."
"...Are you a devil?"
Upon entering the restaurant, the waiter led everyone to a table. Just as they were about to sit down, Qi Ming's eyes were fixed on a certain spot.
"What are you looking at... oh?"
Qi Ming looked in a certain direction with a strange expression, and Shiho Miyano followed his gaze.
Two familiar women were sitting at a two-person table not far away.
……
“Miss Vermouth, thank you so much for inviting me to this restaurant.”
Ran Mouri smiled awkwardly at Vermouth, then glanced at the formal attire of the people around her and asked shyly.
"Um, I just threw on some random clothes and came out, is that a bit too much...?"
Vermouth waved her hand, looking at Ran Mouri with a smile.
"It's nothing. No matter how high-end a restaurant is, it's ultimately just a place to eat."
Vermouth suddenly felt that her current life was surprisingly pretty good.
With so much free time to do every day, things I wanted to achieve in the past are no longer just a pipe dream.
very nice.
Her smile grew wider until she saw a figure not far away, at which point her expression froze.
Qi Ming?
How come he's here too... No, it's not surprising that this guy appears wherever he is.
However, what surprised Vermouth was the person next to Qi Ming.
That person is, Sherry?
"What's wrong, Miss Vermouth?"
"It's nothing, Xiaolan, you..."
Before Vermouth could finish speaking, Ran Mouri turned around, stood up, and exclaimed in surprise.
"Eh, Mr. Qi Ming, Doctor, and... Ms. Miyano?"
Vermouth frowned.
Ms. Miyano?
What does that mean? Did Xiaolan meet Shirley before?
Having already had contact with her when she shrank is one thing, but why is she coming back now?
Hearing Ran Mouri's voice, everyone looked in that direction.
"Sister Xiaolan?"
The children ran happily towards Xiaolan to greet her. Shiho Miyano hesitated for a moment, then said to Qi Ming, "Aren't you coming with me?" before walking over as well.
However, her target was not Ran, but Vermouth.
Qi Ming stared blankly at Shiho Miyano's retreating figure.
He's already resolved the feud between these two, so why does it feel like sparks are flying back up again?
Forget it, he should stay out of women's business.
"Waiter, bring the menu."
"Okay, would you like me to recommend one?"
"Huh? Didn't I already tell you to bring the menu?"
"Sir, this is our menu."
"I told you to bring up everything on the menu, don't you understand?"
"Okay, bro, no problem!"
