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

Chapter 723 The dust has settled (main storyline completed)

Rice flower town.

In the villa that originally belonged to Lie.

Gin was in the kitchen, with a spatula in one hand and a pot in the other, beating the timid vegetables until they were ripe.

in the living room.

Haibara Ai and Kurosawa Mirai sat at the dining table, smelling the appetizing aroma and swallowing their saliva with a gulp.

Even though I've tried gin-cooked food before, it still smells so good after such a long time...

"What are you two doing? Eat!"

Gin looked at his children who were staring at the steaming plates of food, and several question marks popped up in his head.

He has almost finished the rest of the dishes, why aren’t these two kids picking up their chopsticks?

"Eh? Can I eat now?" Kurosawa Mirai wiped his saliva and picked up the chopsticks.

Gin reluctantly scooped a bowl of rice for her, "How about you just watch me eat?"

The two sisters immediately picked up the cutlery and devoured it in no time.

Gin didn't pick up his chopsticks, but just watched quietly as the two sisters finished the food without leaving any, and finally took the dishes to wash.

After cleaning up the mess, Gin sat back at the dining table and started staring at his two daughters who had eaten and drunk their fill.

Among the three people, Haibara Ai was just eating from beginning to end and didn't say a word except eating.

After finishing the meal, they didn't talk, and the atmosphere was actually somewhat awkward...

——But there is nothing we can do about it.

Even though they had long accepted the fact that Gin was a traitor, and they were also traitors to the organization - it was still difficult for two adult women who once had families to accept that this traitor leader suddenly became their father.

They couldn't even think of any topic to discuss with Gin.

Gin is a bit the opposite:
Not only was he able to accept the fact that he had two daughters, he also had many things to say and say to them...but because it happened so suddenly and there were so many things to do, he didn't know where to start.

Should we start from when we learned that Miyano Shiho had joined the organization?
'No, it's too early and will seem nagging.'

Gin rejected himself in his heart.

He was more worried that he would establish the image of a nagging old man in the minds of his two daughters...

...Then, let's start from saving Miyano Akemi?

"This doesn't seem to work either." Gin felt a little distressed, "It seems to be incoherent..."

How should a father communicate with his daughter? It's so frustrating!
No wonder dads don’t talk much.

Gin thought of a silent figure in a distant memory.

Finally, he broke the awkwardness and took out two lollipops and two bags of potato chips from the snack box.

"A snack?"

"..."

Kurosawa Mirai and Huihara Ai looked at each other, then lowered their heads to look at their round bellies, looking embarrassed:
"Um, Gin..."

Gin narrowed his eyes: "What?"

"Hey, godfather." Kurosawa Mirai quickly changed the subject, "Well, we are all full."

Haibara Ai nodded coldly in agreement.

"That's okay, eating some snacks can help digestion." Gin started talking nonsense.

"..." It really helps digestion, shouldn't the more you eat, the more you feel full?!

The three of them started staring at each other again.

This was the scene she saw when Vermouth opened the door.

Mou De expressed confusion: “?”

What is this? Not eating a bunch of snacks, staring at people, is this fun?

If you don’t eat it, I will!

With this mentality, Vermouth sat down next to Gin.

But as soon as she sat down, she felt a strange aura surrounding her, and the urge to eat some potato chips disappeared immediately...

So there were four people staring at each other.

…………

"Well, tell me what your plans are."

Finally, after staring until his eyes were dry, Gin finally spoke to break the awkward silence.

Vermouth finally felt a lightness all over her body, picked up a bag of potato chips and started to fill her stomach.

Kurosawa Mirai and Huihara Ai glanced at Vermouth, who curled her lips and asked, "Why is she here?"

Gin sighed: "Didn't you read the information?"

Kurosawa Mirai said obediently: "I saw it."

"Then you should call her cousin." Gin slumped back in his chair with a look of despair.

Suddenly having a sister, I felt inexplicably sad.

Kurosawa Mirai: “…” It’s a large-scale family recognition scene.

Huibara Ai: “…” Enough, enough, she doesn’t want any more inexplicable relatives!
Recently, the intelligence updated by the Five-Star Group has become more and more explosive, especially the intelligence that they have the highest authority to view...

For example, the fact that Gin and Vermouth are both direct descendants of the Karasuma family can be surprising.

And the Akai family and the Hakuba family had actually had marriages with the Karasuma family!
The five-star group has updated the family tree of the Karasuma family... What's outrageous is that the surnames "Miyano" and "Kudo" appear in the family tree...

However, the marriages between these two families and the Karasuma family happened before Karasuma Renya, and they seemed to have declined afterwards.

Vermouth stopped moving her mouth while eating snacks, and her expression became a little subtle.

It wasn't awkward for her to be an elder, it was just... quite sudden.

It took her several days to recover.

"Um, Qin... Damn, godfather, what plan do you mean?" Finally, it was Kurosawa Mirai who spoke weakly first.

"There are many things to say. For example, do you want to continue to stay in Japan, or leave with Lie and the others and return to the mainland?" When it came to business, Gin's thoughts immediately became clear, and he said smoothly, "Anyway, you probably won't mind continuing to be children... Even if you mind, it's useless. I won't agree to you taking the antidote."

The organization still exists on the surface, but there is an enemy called the Five-Star Group...

As a traitor, the bounty on Miyano Shiho, also known as Shirley, is still on the organization's record - and Gin has no intention of deleting it.

——You must be kidding. If he grows up, how can he experience the joy of raising a child?

The two sisters don’t worry about the issue of growing older or smaller. What’s more important is to live happily.

"Well, let's... stay here." Kurosawa Mirai hesitated for a moment and said softly, "After all, this is where I grew up. If I leave, I'll still feel a little uncomfortable..."

Gin wasn't surprised at all, "No problem, then do you plan to continue in elementary school, or skip a grade? Or teach yourself?"

Huiyuan Ai's half-moon eyes: "Hey, am I not already in school?"

Gin stretched out his hand and patted her head, "I'm asking about the future, not you... As for you, will you continue to go to school or drop out? Anyway, the organization can falsify your academic qualifications-"

"Go to school." Haibara Ai tried to pull Gin's hand away in disdain, but failed. She could only say angrily, "But I want to study a major other than pharmacy, chemistry, and biology!"

"…That's college. I'm asking about elementary, middle and high schools."

"We are all going to school, what's the difference?"

"..."

Gin was speechless.

It seems to be all right.

But he also remembered that he seemed to have never been to school since he came to this world... The time during his school age happened to be the most difficult time he spent in the organization.

Now that I think about it, I am quite happy to be able to go to school and study...

That's assuming there isn't so much homework.

"Can I go to school with Shiho?" Kurosawa Mirai raised his hand weakly.

She still subconsciously said her sister's original name.

"Of course, I will ask someone to complete the admission procedures for you." Gin smiled gently.

In fact, he knew some of the sisters' thoughts and choices, but asking them... well, it would at least promote communication between father and daughter, right?

"Then will we live here from now on? But this is Mr. Lie's house..."

Kurosawa Mirai spoke more and more freely, and it was not known whether it was because he knew that Gin would not do anything to them, or because he was influenced by the good education of the Five Star Group and had the courage to resist head-on.

On the contrary, Huiyuan Ai has become less and less talkative since she reunited with her sister...

Although there wasn't much to say.

Gin smiled and said, "Of course I live here... As for this house, in the future, you will be in the Five Star Group for quite a while. Don't you know who the leader is in Japan?"

Kurosawa Mirai was slightly startled, "It's you."

"Regarding the asset issue of the Five-Star Team, is it mentioned in the induction manual?" Gin knocked on the table.

"…'The funds, businesses and properties owned by the Five Star Group are, in principle, jointly owned by all members of the Five Star Group', right?" Kurosawa Mirai hesitantly recited a passage. "Well, not bad, it seems you have studied hard."

Gin nodded in satisfaction, "What about the distribution of the property?"

Kurosawa Mirai tried hard to recall and whispered, "I remember it was... 'All the leaders of the Five Star Group have the absolute right to use and distribute all the industries and funds under the name of the Five Star Group'..."

Haibara Ai:"……"

Why can her sister remember all this?

Shouldn't the induction manual be thrown on the bookshelf to collect dust on the first day of employment?

"There is another point. 'The direct superior of a certain area has higher control and ownership than the superiors of other areas.'" Gin paused and narrowed his eyes. "So, you should know who this house belongs to?"

Kurosawa Mirai nodded helplessly.

Well, it turns out that this house should have originally belonged to Gin...and I don't know when he got the embezzled money from him.

"Gin, if you want to show off your wealth, you can be more direct. Don't be so subtle." Vermouth squinted her eyes, feeling very disgusted with Gin's style.

"Hey, I'm just emphasizing that this is my territory, and I have the final say." Gin's mouth twitched, "Also, it's about time for you to go to Europe to inherit the family fortune, don't hang around here."

Vermouth suddenly opened her eyes wide, mist in her eyes: "Gin...you!"

Kurosawa Mirai and Haibara Ai looked sideways at the same time.

“Is this how you talk to your sister?!” Vermouth’s eyes were red. “I have been alone for so many years, with only you as my lost brother, but you have such a lukewarm and inhuman attitude towards me… Have you forgotten your grandfather’s last words before he died?”

Gin: "...?"

He slowly typed a question mark.

How can this guy act with him?

If the old man knew that his granddaughter was dead because of slandering others, would he die immediately?

Thinking of this, Gin sneered and slapped the table, "Come on, auntie, I'll treat you as an invitation to return to Europe to inherit our Karasuma family's property, okay? Don't play brotherly love with me here, you're the only big sister here!"

This means using the most ferocious tone and saying the most cowardly words.

When Vermouth heard that Gin didn't argue with her, her eyes instantly disappeared and she smiled very proudly.

But she didn't know that the reason why Gin was so timid after the blood test was because of a certain concept engraved in his bones - such as the eldest sister is like a mother and the eldest brother is like a father...

So even if Gin was reluctant to have a blood cousin like Vermouth, he could only hold his nose and endure it, and convince himself that Vermouth was at least a revolutionary teammate who knew him well, not some thing that suddenly jumped out from some corner.

People, we must learn to be content.

"By the way, Qin... Godfather, where is Brother Jingguang? Isn't he with us anymore?"

Kurosawa Mirai's re-export was faster this time.

Some subtle emotions gradually arose in Huiyuan Ai beside her...

It seemed as if my sister was being taken away by someone and would never come back.

Gin turned his attention away from Vermouth and frowned, "In the future, you should call Scotland 'uncle'... Scotland is probably still partying with his old lover. After all, they infiltrated the organization together. Except for the incident in Yokohama, they haven't seen each other for a long time.

Scotland also has its own mission after that, I will check the schedule later. "

"If I don't have enough time, I will hire him as your tutor."

Kurosawa Mirai: “…”

This is not necessary for Duck.

"Oh, right."

Gin suddenly remembered something and looked at Huihara Ai, "If you want to continue to go to school, you need to change your name in the file."

Huihara Ai expressionless: "I refuse, the name 'Kurosawa World' doesn't sound smooth at all."

Gin calmly tore a candy for him: "The reason is not sufficient, rejected."

Haibara Ai:"……"

Damn dictator!
She glared at Gin fiercely, snatched the candy away angrily, put it in her mouth and chewed it, as if the candy was Gin.

When Kurosawa Mirai saw this scene, a doting smile appeared on her face... Don't get me wrong, this is doting for her sister, not for some weird person.

Vermouth quietly watched the interaction between the father and daughter, with a rare hint of envy in her expression.

However, this envy only lasted for a moment.

Do not ask.

Asking means you have let it go.

"Speaking of which, what are you going to do?" Vermouth waited until they had finished making a fuss before slowly speaking, "Grandpa said that we would inherit everything. I got a lot of things in Nagano these days, but he's still talking about you - you want me to replace the boss, what about you?"

"You already have the answer, don't you?"

Gin shrugged and took out a mask like a magic trick, a brand new one with no five-pointed star printed on it.

He took a marker and drew the Karasuma family crest on it.

"I already have an organization, so I can only reluctantly give up 'Dark Night' and give it to you. Of course, for the sake of the old man's mental health, I will take over some of the authority... Also, I will let Xie take care of all the communications, because I really can't find a suitable candidate. Maybe when Vodka becomes an apprentice, he can take on some of the work, but for now, Xie is more reliable."

"Within the organization, you'd better pretend that nothing has happened. You can choose to learn from that unscrupulous guy and hide behind the scenes, or you can play two roles and continue to muddy the waters. I believe in your acting skills."

Gin gave her a look that said it all.

"I will try my best to find the old man in the next few days to hand over the affairs, as well as the old man's retirement issues...

Never mind, I’ll ask about this later.”

"Humph, I think you just want to drive me out of your territory, right? You have no conscience, brother!" Vermouth said resentfully, but quickly changed her mind, "You deliberately didn't merge the two organizations, are you still afraid of something?"

Gin raised his eyebrows: "I can't tell that your IQ has improved a lot since you inherited the family fortune?"

Vermouth was angry: "Say it again!?"

"Well, of course I am wary. It's not like you don't know why I really work for you."

Gin was completely timid, and his words gradually became colder:

"It's impossible for those secret agencies to be completely ignorant of everything... The Five-Star Group has surfaced. Once the iceberg of the organization is gone, those people's pickaxes and hoes may fall on our heads."

"In the face of huge benefits, those guys might put aside their prejudices against each other, which would undoubtedly be the worst outcome."

After a pause, he placed another five-star mask on the table.

"We can only put the organization at a disadvantage and attract the hatred of those guys."

"But while we're alive, we can ensure that the organization and the Five Star Group maintain their honeymoon period... Of course, we can't let those people notice."

After Gin finished talking about his final arrangements, he felt relaxed.

Finally, he could probably retire.

The Five Star Group has been developing more and more in this fast-forwarded year. Even if he does nothing, it will not affect the operation of the following organizations...

Of course, necessary matters still need to be dealt with, otherwise the group will be leaderless and will become like headless flies.

As for the organization, although Karasuma Renya wanted to put the blame on him, Gin cleverly passed it on to Vermouth - he was able to get away with it.

He just needs to learn from this old man and be the "one" without real power...

...Well, this result is a little different from Gin's original expectation of seizing power and usurping the throne, but overall, it is still good.

The Five-Star Group has now absorbed a lot of talents, and Gin is also considering selecting some people as successors.

There are quite a few people who meet his requirements.

But think carefully...

"There's no rush." ​​Gin comforted himself.

Now he doesn't have to hide himself anymore, and can supervise the two children doing their homework, practicing martial arts, and playing games together at home...

If this period of time could last forever, that would be great.

pity……

There are no ifs in this world.

……

Time flies.

Things are wrong.

A young girl pushed open the door barefoot and called out to the person sitting at the desk:
"Dad, it's time to eat."

"……coming."

In front of the window where the setting sun was floating, the silver-haired man covered by the afterglow of the setting sun responded without any emotion and closed the book he was reading.

The cover belonged to him, but to him, the words were strange yet familiar:

"To My Future Self"
