Out-of-control players in the world of Detective Conan

An explosion rang out, and I felt a strong tremor in my body.

Vermouth sat up straight and opened her eyes, looking in the direction of the sound with a puzzled expression.

However, she is still blindfolded and cannot see anything.

"Officer, what happened?"

Vermouth asked in confusion, and immediately received a response.

"The police car exploded, see for yourself."

To Vermouth's surprise, the voice did not seem to belong to the three police officers.

It was a child's voice, and the voice seemed somewhat familiar.

Vermouth tentatively moved her hand and was surprised to find that the handcuffs binding her had been removed at some point.

She hesitated for a moment before removing her blindfold and finally saw who was sitting next to her.

Qi Bu Laiming.

When did he come?

No, it seems that not only the people around me have changed, but wasn't I just sitting in a four-seater police car?

When did it become a sports car?

Vermouth was surprised for a moment, then looked out the window again.

In front of one of the destroyed shops behind, a police car is burning fiercely.

Looking closely, I saw the license plate numbers peeking out from the flickering flames in front of the car.

Vermouth knew perfectly well that she had just been sitting in the back seat of that police car!

Vermouth regained her composure and looked at Qi Ming.

His hands were not on the steering wheel, and given his height, he naturally couldn't reach the accelerator.

The child is currently sitting in the driver's seat playing on his phone, while the car is still turning.

Autonomous driving?

But is that really how it is...?

Qi Bu Lai Ming... Qi Ming?!

Vermouth's heart was pounding.

He was indeed not dead.

But did he become like this because he took that drug?

"Madera?"

"What are you doing?"

"call."

Vermouth breathed a sigh of relief and then decisively removed the human skin mask from her face, looking at Qi Ming and saying.

"...Don't you want to say anything to me now?"

Now that they knew Qi Ming was still alive, it was obvious why they had been arrested by the police.

This guy is the one who did it.

It's likely that he saw himself teasing Ai Haibara during class and became vengeful.

However, since he came back to save her, he probably did all this just to scare her.

Upon hearing Vermouth's words, Qi Ming stopped playing on his phone.

He opened the photo album, found a video, and then handed the phone to Vermouth.

"I know you want to see what I do, come on."

"..."

Who wants to watch you play?

However, since Qi Ming had already put the phone right in her face, it would be impolite to refuse.

She was afraid he would be impolite to her.

The video on the phone is in the first person.

Judging from the short arms and legs shown above, the photographer was indeed Qi Ming.

The only difference was that the audio in the video was cut off and replaced with a loud little tune.

In the video, Qi Ming is sitting in the driver's seat, and the vehicle is moving automatically.

Soon a police car appeared to the left front, and Vermouth was sitting in the back seat.

Once Qi Ming and the police car were parallel, the video suddenly slowed down.

Strangely, only the surrounding things slowed down; Qi Ming's own speed remained unchanged.

He got out of the car and walked to the police car door, where he clenched his fist and smashed it against the glass.

The glass shattered, and then he pushed past the police on the outside, pulled himself out, ripped off his handcuffs, and threw himself into the passenger seat of the car he was now in.

Then Qi Ming kicked the police car again before returning to his own car and closing the door.

Once he returned to his car, the video playback speed returned to normal, and the two cars accelerated forward.

Qi Ming's kick caused the police car to veer off course and crash directly into the shop.

"..."

Vermouth was deeply shocked.

So much happened just now, even if I was blindfolded, how could I not have noticed?

...Never mind, there are already enough unbelievable things about this person.

"So, what exactly do you want to do to me next? Do you... intend to kill me?"

After a long silence, Vermouth finally spoke.

"Kill you? What are you talking about?"

Upon hearing this, Qi Ming looked at Vermouth with a puzzled expression.

Vermouth said calmly.

"When you saw me at that school, you probably already guessed my purpose, right? That's right, I came here for Sherry."

"But aren't you doing this in accordance with the rules set by the organization?"

"...Oh, right."

Vermouth paused for a moment, then muttered to herself as if she had suddenly realized something.

That's right, I was just following the organization's orders, and I was acting as a righteous force.

Thinking of this, Vermouth's previously uneasy heart instantly calmed down, and she suddenly felt confident.

Since Qi Ming's body has already shrunk because of taking that drug...

Then he would definitely realize that the little child beside him was actually Shiho Miyano herself.

Qi Ming knew about it but didn't report it, and even dared to try to stop it. I...

"..."

I can't do anything.

Vermouth glanced at the video on her phone, and her newly gained confidence suddenly vanished.

Putting aside the fact that he knows Ai Haibara is Shiho Miyano, he will definitely also discover that Conan is Shinichi Kudo.

Given this guy's bizarre tricks, who knows, if he said he would report to the organization, Qi Ming might actually kill him to silence him?

I agree that you should follow the organization's rules.

But my agreement doesn't mean I accept it, so I won't let you get away with it.

Vermouth believed that Qi Ming was capable of saying such a thing.

Furthermore, considering the organization's current level of trust in Qi Ming...

Even if he brought up the matter of Qi Ming protecting a traitor to the organization, I'm afraid the organization would turn a blind eye.

Vermouth paused for a moment and then asked Qi Ming.

"You already know the true identities of Conan Edogawa and your sister?"

Qi Ming lowered his head slightly and pondered for a while before slowly raising his head.

"That's right, I knew it the moment I saw them."

Then he continued, "Besides, I know you've known all this for a long time. I just wanted to test you to see if you would tell me the truth."

This is a lie.

After all, when you're out in the world, you give yourself your identity; he was just a fool back then.

But only I know I'm being stupid; no one else does.

At this point, we need to make amends.

As expected, when Vermouth heard Qi Ming's words, her heart was instantly filled with turmoil.

How can it be?

Vermouth stared wide-eyed in disbelief.

Was his apparent ignorance all an act?

That's some kind of incredible acting skill, isn't it? He's playing dumb so convincingly!

Thinking about this, Vermouth felt a deep sense of frustration well up inside her, and she suddenly became listless.

"So, where are you planning to take me next?"

Vermouth raised her hands in a gesture of surrender, leaned back in her chair, and said lazily.

It's ruined.

"Um……"

Qi Ming frowned for a moment, then replied:

"Let's get some cake."

"cake?"

Vermouth's eyes widened in surprise.

Qi Ming nodded emphatically.

“That’s right, we should have a women’s tea party.”

"..."

are you crazy? !
