Conan's self-cultivation of fake wine

Chapter 318 Asking
  Winter nights tend to come faster, but at seven o'clock in the evening, it was completely dark.

The street lights haven't started working yet, but fortunately the moonlight is pretty good tonight.

The moon and stars are sparse, so visibility is ideal.

You can clearly see a tall guy starting at 1.8 meters.

Knitted hat, short curly hair, dark green eyes.

He was holding an unknown brand of cigarette in his mouth, leaning on the glass wall of the phone booth, slightly raising his head and staring at the Mori Office.

Combined with the organizational aura that Haiyuan felt from this person, it was basically certain that this person was Shuichi Akai.

Also, the fringe two-piece set is still stable.

Lu Ren stood in front of Akai Shuichi, but he still had no reaction.

Gaoleng is not such a cold method.

Shuichi Akai just couldn't see it.

One who is probably the best sniper in the world cannot be seen by the best eyesight.

So how did Bei Dao see him?

Forget it, now is not the time to think about this...

Lu Ren retracted his thoughts and took out the nuclear flashlight in his pocket.

The flashlight produced by this system is not only bright, it can also kill people.

Just one click and it will be ready.

And Shuichi Akai can't see him...

At this moment, Lu Ren suddenly understood that he was already invincible from the moment he drew the marginal man's two-piece suit.

Easily, lightly, without leaving any evidence, kill all those who are unfavorable to him and all those who make him unhappy.

As long as he is cruel enough and kills everyone in the winery, he will be free.

It’s difficult and extreme, but not impossible.

The same is true now. Whether Akai Shuichi is alive or dead, life and death are all decided by his thoughts.

Passive, weak, disadvantaged, it was never him.

Now he has the ability to overturn the entire table.

Lu Ren took back the nuclear flashlight.

Now is not the time. He has not finished eating the benefits of the plot. It is not good for him to drastically change the direction of the plot.

Solving the case by yourself is not as relaxing and enjoyable as the plot.

As for now...

Lu Ren was going to have a chat with Akai Shuichi.

It is better to choose a day than to hit it. If you happen to encounter it, seize the opportunity.

Now Lu Ren doesn't want to see Akai Shuichi in the cafe.

One is passive, not knowing when to wait.

Secondly, he didn't want to be disturbed by Akai Shuichi while eating chocolate, which would ruin his good mood for the day.

So……

How should you greet a stranger when you meet them for the first time?

Lu Ren crossed his arms and thought for a while, then raised his hand to take off the marginal man's mask, smiled at Akai Shuichi and said: "fifty fifty (translated as fifty-fifty or evenly matched)."

This is Shuichi Akai’s mantra.

The white snowflakes avoided the two of them. The crows screamed shrilly, turning and flying into the distance. Other than that, the world was silent.

The moment Lu Ren took off his mask, something colder than the snowy night spread unbridled around him.

It was bone-chilling, cold and crazy enough to freeze the blood.

Birds, animals, and pedestrians all fled from here spontaneously from this moment on. In the houses on both sides of the office, the lights that were originally on were turned off one by one.

All sounds are silent.

They and they may not know what's going on, but the fear in their hearts doesn't lie.

Something bad is happening, don't let it catch your eye.

If you can escape, run away; if you can't escape, bury yourself and pretend to be dead.

In the center of the storm, one of the protagonists, Lu Ren, was still smiling, smiling, smiling, wryly smiling, laughing...

All adjectives related to laughter can now be applied to Lu Ren.

He is very happy now.

The long-term depression, caution, fear, and even living in espionage suppressed his nerves and emotions.

In order to survive, he had to make calculations, he had to put on a show, he had to stay up late at night desperately, and he had to do things that he didn't like at all.

He doesn't want to kill people, and he doesn't like killing people.

He doesn't like forcing others to make choices, and he doesn't like being forced.

What does this mean?
  What's the fun in that?
  Meaningless.

Senseless killing, senseless evil.

If Huiyuan had not been saved, there would have been no such thing as "In order to let this child live a better life, I will work hard to live." ’ idea.

Now, he may have been crushed by the pressure of survival. Even if it didn’t collapse, it would be hard to breathe.

It's different now, everything is different.

Even if he doesn't have to continue pretending, he can still live with confidence.

How long has he been like this?

Smiling without purpose, without scruples, without reservation.

Looking at Shuichi Akai, who was already in a posture opposite him, Lu Ren stretched out his hand to smooth the smile at the corner of his mouth, and gently said another mantra of Shuichi Akai.

"Don't look like that."

After hearing this, Akai Shuichi's expression remained stern. He used his right hand to put out the cigarette at his mouth, his left hand close to his waist. His dark green eyes were like those of a feline, staring at the prey in front of him, riveting.

"who are you?"

"Your former colleague."

Lu Ren doesn't like this at all. If his eyes can kill, he was killed by Gin in the amusement park.

"..."

silence.

The only thing that changed was that Akai Shuichi narrowed his eyes and hid his dark green eyes together with his own emotions.

Lu Ren waited for a while and found that Akai Shuichi never spoke, as if he had made up his mind to stay entangled with him on this snowy night.

Then Lu Ren would definitely not want to.

What does it sound like to be lingering with a man?

He doesn't make money by selling rotten food.

Lu Ren said: "I didn't expect you to be quite shy. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lu Ren. I am a newspaper reporter, deputy Maori detective and a member of the organization."

Akai Shuichi's expression remained unchanged, but his narrowed eyes opened again.

Lu Ren continued: "My code name in the organization is Glen Fiddich. You can call me Glen, or Lu Ren. I personally prefer the latter title, but of course, you can call me the former one."

"This must be the first time we meet." Lu Ren put his hands in his pockets, leaned over Akai Shuichi's ear, looked at the phone booth behind him and said warmly: "Hello, Rye (rye whiskey), the traitor of the organization."

"..." Akai Shuichi continued to remain silent. Facing Lu Ren who was approaching him, his body didn't even sway, and he was as steady as an old dog.

"Tsk." Lu Ren straightened up, "You can't be fooled like this. Are you so tolerable? Or do you mean you don't know who I am? You shouldn't. Didn't you just come to Tokyo for me? After all, it's me. Kill Miyano Akemi."

"..."

Akai Shuichi still didn't respond, and Lu Ren was ready to continue to provoke him with words.

"Wow, when you and Miyano Akemi were together, did she ever say to you, 'I hate that you are a piece of wood.'"

The sentence in single quotation marks is the female tone and voice used by Lu Ren.

Since he had never learned false accent, Lu Ren pinched his throat and said these words in a sharp and harsh voice.

Akai Shuichi's expression remained stern.

"It seems not. Well, she has never said that to me. Miyano Akemi is a good person."

Lu Ren recalled fondly: "Even if I told her that I wanted to kill her myself, she didn't show any resentment towards me. Instead, she calmly accepted everything and her own death. But before she died, , asked me to take good care of her sister."

Hearing this - [Homo sapiens (calm → angry → calm)]

Lu Ren, who always turned on the appraisal, noticed Akai Shuichi's fleeting mood swings.

It really flashed by, maybe less than a second.

Without identification, it would have been impossible for Lu Ren to detect Akai Shuichi's mood swings.

Miyano Akemi.

What do you want to do if you fall in love with such a man?

He wasn't even angry enough for you for even a second.

For this kind of love, I will work hard without caring about myself, and I will be happy with it.

Every child of the Miyano family is a fool.

"At that time, I was thinking, why do such people exist in the world? How can they accept their own death so calmly? I really don't understand."

Lu Ren saw Akai Shuichi, "Now I understand. She is not calm, but has given up. What can she do if she falls in love with such a useless man?"

"..."

"The FBI ace, the silver bullet that destroys the organization. You are so powerful, so great, but when she needed help the most, you didn't show any sign of help. Oh, silver bullet, it's really scary."

"They say I killed Miyano Akemi. Even my sister thinks so. This is really an injustice to me. I didn't kill the person. She was already dead before I blew her head off. She was He killed his lover with his own hands."

[Homo sapiens (calm → sad → calm)]

Another wave of emotion in less than a second.

Miyano Akemi, what are you planning?

"Before she went on the road, she checked her phone several times. She opened and closed text messages. Over and over again. I guess she was waiting for you to reply to her message. But she didn't wait."

【Homo sapiens (calm)】

All right. Besides, it’s not interesting.

"You've been refusing to respond, which makes me feel like you're doing a stand-up comedy. Let me tell you one more thing. She asked me to tell you this before she died."

Lu Ren cleared his throat and used falsetto again, his voice sad and plaintive, "Your Majesty, I want to ask you. Have you ever felt sorry for my persistence, understood my humbleness, and seen that for a moment? My helplessness. Your Majesty, did you ever love me for a moment?"
