Conan: I'm Not a Model Worker in the Winery

Chapter 352 Lying about military information
"Chablis..."

"Hmm? Please go ahead, Miss Vermouth~"

"Do you think there are too many people on Gin's side?" Vermouth said weakly, "Do you need one person to go to Yokohama? Can't you move two or three over?"

Chabrillo said a little embarrassedly: "Oh~ Dear Miss Vermouth, I'm afraid that won't work... You have to know that these people I brought from Europe have never been engaged in intelligence work. To find the traces of those people, we can only rely on numbers."

Belmode: "..."

It was well said, but she was speechless... What the hell!
"So why can't you let the intelligence department track Akai Shuichi?"

"Because I really want to see what he can do..."

Chabli's words made Vermouth hold her forehead, and at the same time she knew that ten people, including Chabli and Graf, were gone.

——There is a common problem among members of the organization, and it is a common problem from top to bottom.

——That is, once someone decides to do something, ten horses and eight cows cannot pull him back.

Therefore, Vermouth stopped trying to persuade him, and just asked unhappily:

"As for Gin, minus Kiel, there are only two snipers left, Cohen and Chianti. Claret and Pino are intelligence members, and Tequila is not active in Tokyo... Even if you add Vodka and Gin, there are only six people. You have freed up manpower, so tell me how to solve this problem."

She was so angry.

It was only three days away from the scheduled time, and now something unexpected happened to her...

After all, Gin is still the most reliable.

And after Vermouth did a verbal calculation this time, she found out that the situation of Gin's group was quite miserable. There were only eight core members in the whole group.

The distribution of personnel is quite even, with informants, snipers, and all-purpose glue-type members.

Vermouth's question also made Chablis feel troubled. "Hiss~ My dear Miss Vermouth, this is indeed a problem..."

"Can you please stop addressing me in such a long-winded way? Are you just trying to make up the word count?"

“Um, okay, dear… Vermouth, I think you shouldn’t underestimate gin.” Chablis’ tone suddenly became serious, “The power of gin may be much greater than we imagined…”

Vermouth didn't understand what he meant, and frowned slightly, "If you mean the strength of their group, then they are definitely not weaker than any of us, and their members are very mobile, so I originally planned to place them in the inner circle..."

"What about gin?"

"……what?"

"I mean, what about Gin's own arrangement?" Chablis laughed nervously again, "Oh~ I... Ahem, Vermouth, if you arrange a position for Gin, maybe the effect of one plus one is greater than two."

Vermouth looked up and thought: "Oh, who do you want him to join?"

Chablis: “……?”

This question is... a bit problematic.

"It's okay, okay, I'll go contact Gin." Vermouth sighed, "Also, Chablis... don't underestimate Akai Shuichi."

"Oh! Don't worry, Miss Vermouth, I will pay attention."

After the two finished their conversation, it was unknown what Chablis' mood was, but Vermouth was in a very bad mood.

She silently made another call -

"Hello? Gin? Are you asleep so early?"

"I want to tell you something... Let me make it clear first, you are not allowed to vent your anger on me, because I am also in a bad mood right now..."

……

organizational base.

Gin, who had just woken up from a deep sleep, was talking to Vermouth on the phone, uttering a low "hmm" from time to time.

Throughout the whole process, his voice did not fluctuate much...

Of course, not waking up properly is one reason, and another reason is——

"Vermouth, you said so much, isn't it just that guy Chablis who stood you up?" Gin yawned boredly.

Chablis's actions were basically within his expectations... at least not too unexpected.

Vermouth was surprised at Gin's calmness: "Hey, this time I want you to take the lead yourself...Aren't you angry?"

When did Gin change his personality?

"...Do I have a bad temper?" Gin rolled his eyes speechlessly.

Isn't it just a place for Chablis? It's convenient for him to operate, why should he be angry?

And even if it wasn't because of this, just for the sake of the organization's work, he couldn't have any bad emotions.

For the development and future of the organization, he can sacrifice everything.

Gin subconsciously brainwashed himself in a trance, and only then did he remember that he was not talking to the unscrupulous boss on the phone, but to Vermouth...

"Don't you know your temper?" Vermouth's voice sounded quite speechless.

"No." Gin yawned again and asked about the business, "So, why did Chablis go to Yokohama?"

As soon as Vermouth called, she told him that because Chablis had gone to Yokohama, there were holes in the net outside the "fishing ground" and he needed to fill them.

Then it took a long time to persuade him to take Chablis's place.

Although Gin knew that Chablis went to Yokohama because of him, he was still curious about how Chablis explained this to Vermouth.

"You still remember the news you told me this afternoon? About Akai Shuichi..."

Vermouth's words made Gin suspect that she was implying something about him, and he rolled his eyes: "My memory has not deteriorated to this extent."

It's impossible to forget something that happened in the afternoon in the evening.

……Maybe?

Gin suddenly felt a little guilty.

Because it seemed like he had forgotten something very important a long time ago...

The Kawa who he had someone follow Kudo Shinichi at the beginning...

What's Kawakami?

"Ahem... It's about Akai Shuichi appearing in Yokohama, right?" Gin felt more and more guilty the more he thought about it. He coughed quickly and continued to talk to Vermouth about business, "And then?"

"And then? What else could there be? After Chablis learned the news, he took his people to Yokohama."

Belmode sounded helpless.

A question mark slowly appeared in Gin's head: "Chabli, he followed Akai Shuichi to Yokohama?"

Vermouth said, "Yeah... Why, are you surprised? Actually, I advised him not to go, and that the tracking should be left to the Intelligence Department, but Chablis is very interested in that man..."

Gin: "..."

Let’s not talk about whether the last sentence will lead to misunderstanding.

Isn’t Chablis’ ability to lie about military intelligence too strong?
"By the way, Gin, the FBI's actions make me a little uneasy... Tell me, what important matter could there be in Yokohama that would make a man who even the boss is afraid of go there?"

Gin: "..."

Because the culprit who caused Shuichi Akai to run to Yokohama was this guy Chablis!
"Gin? Are you listening? Are you asleep..." Vermouth on the other end of the phone asked suspiciously.

Gin pinched his brows and said, "I'm listening... Don't worry about Chablis. If he really gets killed by Akai Shuichi, he deserves it."

He suddenly felt so pitiful for Vermouth who was kept in the dark by him and Chabli.

But come to think of it, Chablis was sure that he would not tell the truth to Vermouth, so he dared to talk nonsense like that... right?
