Great Swordsman Ke Xue.

Chapter 494: Frank Meeting
In fact, Vermouth had only discovered that Kudo Shinichi appeared on the list of performers for the drama one day, and she had never expected that Shimizu Koji, a lazy guy who didn't participate in any activities at the school anniversary party, could actually notice such a detail. It was hard for her not to be surprised.

But no matter how surprised he was, the current issue, of course, was to put Shimizu Koji off the subject first.

Yes, that's right, prevarication.

Koji Shimizu came to test Vermouth, and Vermouth also planned to fool Koji Shimizu. In a sense, they have the same goal.

"As for Mao Lilan, I remember that you had a pretty good relationship with her. You are not here to test me, are you?"

Vermouth chuckled, and her aura slowly relaxed.

Shimizu Koji's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly: "This is another matter. The organization's affairs are more important, especially since this is one of the few fatal stains on Gin."

"Oh? So you're planning to use Kudo Shinichi as a bargaining chip to harm Gin?"

"Don't you think so, Vermouth?"

Koji Shimizu blinked in confusion. He looked like a small-minded boy with a strong desire for revenge, but who did not quite understand the twists and turns of the adult world and power games.

Vermouth saw his reaction clearly, and she felt relieved. Of course, Shimizu Koji could not be loyal to the organization, but if he was doing it to get Gin, then it made sense.

Fortunately, Shimizu Koji was one of her own people who had been trained. Now that she understood Shimizu Koji's purpose, she could actually speak frankly.

Vermouth doesn't believe that Shimizu Koji really thinks like he says. You know, Shimizu Koji still lives in Kudo's house. She won't deliberately investigate, but she is not blind.

"Okay, put away your little thoughts. I don't really care about Kudo Shinichi's matter."

"Gin is Gin. He has nothing to do with us. You are trying to make a fuss about Kudo Shinichi's incident, but it gives him a chance to make up for his mistakes."

Vermouth paused, looked into Shimizu Koji's eyes earnestly, and continued to teach: "Sometimes, instead of doing small actions like reporting and exposing, it would be more effective to wait for the problem to be exposed passively."

Vermouth said this very sincerely, and Shimizu Koji also completely understood what she meant, which is that instead of being caught by Kudo Shinichi now when he has not done anything, it is better to wait until Kudo Shinichi has done something big, preferably something that is detrimental to the organization, and then be noticed by the boss directly. At that time, Gin will be really in trouble.

But the premise of all this is that Koji Shimizu really wants to take revenge on Gin and make things difficult for him, and in fact, Koji Shimizu is just saying this now.

Of course, it is undeniable that if he has the chance, he will definitely deal with Gin, not for himself, but for his own Shiho and Akemi.

If Gin is obedient in the future and is willing to be his dog, that would be fine. If he is not obedient, Shimizu Koji does not think that there is a shortage of hardworking oxen and horses in the world, and he can just find a stronger replacement.

Now, the only thing that Koji Shimizu cares about about the organization is those guys lurking underwater and hiding in dark corners, rum, bourbon, tequila, curacao, etc., and the final boss.

There is no doubt that for Koji Shimizu now, the organization is no longer his only choice, because things have changed too fast recently. The favor of the two young ladies, Suzuki Ayako and Tetsu Moroha, has made him taste the sweetness of living off others for the first time.

With the help of the two top chaebols, in fact, to a large extent, as long as he does not do something as stupid as assassinating the Prime Minister of Japan or the President of the United States in front of the media, basically no one can do anything to him. The organization has now become an available option, not the only choice.

Therefore, Shimizu Koji dared to be so bold and unrestrained in dealing with Kiel, not only because Kiel was an undercover agent, but also because he had enough confidence. Therefore, Shimizu Koji's attitude towards the organization now is that if possible, he will treat it as his own black hand card, if not, then smash it and completely wipe it out. No matter what choice he makes, the premise that cannot be avoided is that all the core members of the organization must be found one by one to prevent any fish from slipping through the net.

"oh, I understand now."

Seeing Shimizu Koji nod, Vermouth also showed a gratified look. After hesitating for a moment, she continued in a chatty tone:

"Actually, regarding Kudo Shinichi, his mother and I have a good relationship. We can be called friends. So, I am still a little concerned about the fact that Gin killed Kudo Shinichi."

The reason why people are people is that they are independent individuals with their own feelings and lives, not machines.

Koji Shimizu was quite surprised by Vermouth's sudden confession, and one of the reasons was that he really didn't know that Vermouth was actually related to Yukiko.

The reason why Vermouth told Koji Shimizu was because Koji Shimizu was her own person whom she brought into the organization. Otherwise, Koji Shimizu would not even have the qualifications to sit here.

You see, Calvados, who had been running around for her, was sent directly to the United States to carry out a mission after all his hard work, and he might not be able to come back for a month or so.

"You, are friends with Yukiko?" Koji Shimizu thought for a moment and asked directly.

Vermouth nodded, then stood up and took out a bottle of red wine and two crystal glasses from the medical refrigerator behind her.

"Why, do you know Yukiko too? Yes, otherwise you wouldn't be able to live in that room. Oh, yes, it seems like I asked Yukiko about it a long time ago, I can't quite remember."

"Well, she's at my house now. No, she's at her house."

"Oh?" Vermouth was stunned. Obviously, she didn't know that Yukiko had returned to her country, let alone that she was living in Beika Town.

While they were talking, two glasses of red wine were poured. Shimizu Koji didn't hesitate to pick up one glass and drank it all in one gulp. He even forgot that he came by car.

"She came back suddenly and kicked me out of the house~~." Shimizu Koji shrugged, his tone relaxed and humorous.

Vermouth also heard something. What Shimizu Koji said undoubtedly meant that he knew Yukiko and they had a good relationship.

She blinked, took a sip of red wine, and her expression became half-smile, very charming.

"So, you really came here to test me today, right?"

"Well, I guess so. Of course, if I knew you had such a relationship with Yukiko, I wouldn't have come." Shimizu Koji shrugged and became very frank.

Since there are only the two of them here, there is no need to hide anything.

Even if he said he wanted to kill the boss, um, that wouldn't work. Koji Shimizu still didn't quite understand the relationship between Vermouth and the boss. If he killed Gin, yes, if he killed Gin, Vermouth would definitely not say anything.
