As Shimizu Koji was speaking, his tone became sluggish.

Vermouth played the role of Dr. Shinde very well. Before Shimizu Koji finished speaking, he had already squatted down with a gentle smile and reached out to touch Huibara Ai’s head…

Haibara Ai didn’t move at all, like a wooden man, her eyes were lifeless, with only deep darkness representing the strongest fear in her heart.

“Um, little friend?” Doctor Shinide had not noticed anything unusual. After all, this was a child taken care of by Shimizu Koji. But as soon as he greeted her, Haibara Ai hugged Shimizu Koji’s thighs like a little girl and hid behind him.

This is no longer something to be afraid of…

“Is he…unwell?”

Dr. Shinde smiled awkwardly, but still asked with concern.

Meanwhile, Judy, who had said hello but remained silent, suddenly felt dazed as she watched this scene, as if she saw herself and Vermouth when they were little…

That haunting, nightmarish memory…

“Shimizu-san, why don’t you take this child with me back to the infirmary—”

“No! Oh no, I mean, maybe this kid just wants to find his parents?”

Judy suddenly screamed, which scared Shimizu Koji and Vermouth who were flirting with each other.

While Judy was hurriedly explaining, she couldn’t help but give Shimizu Koji a few glances.

Koji Shimizu looked at teacher Judy, who seemed a little anxious and flustered. His expression remained unchanged, but he was secretly concerned in his heart.

Is Judy hinting that he should take Ai away immediately?

If it were an ordinary student, or Xiaolan and Guanzi, they might understand Judy’s gesture as the beautiful English teacher wanting the sunny and warm-hearted Dr. Arata to have a campus romance. But for Koji Shimizu, who still shares the same hatred of Vermouth so far, it is hard not to be suspicious of her action.

In particular, Judy is an English teacher from the United States.

Vermouth did not notice the look that Judy secretly gave to Koji Shimizu, but she also noticed Judy’s strange behavior. However, thinking of her current disguise, Vermouth said that it was understandable.

After feeling helplessly proud and confident about her charm and disguise skills for a second, she turned to look at Shimizu Koji and received his reply.

“Well, I hope I won’t cause any trouble to you, Mr. Shinde…hiss…”

Koji Shimizu was also quite helpless. He and Vermouth were open accomplices. No matter if it was Judy’s hint or Ai secretly pinching his thigh, he couldn’t just turn around and leave.

Huiyuan Ai’s reaction was too strange and too obviously intense. She even had the nerve to pinch him! If she hadn’t behaved so abnormally, it would have been easy for Shimizu Koji to tell Vermouth to get lost!

Damn Shiho, just get shot when you get back.

I have to wipe your butt again today!

…

Chapter 525: Shiho and Vermouth’s First Confrontation (Part )

Vermouth brought Koji Shimizu, Koji Shimizu brought Ai Haibara, and the three of them gradually walked away from the corridor.

Watching their backs disappear at the entrance of the health room, Judy felt inexplicably heavy and depressed in her heart…

Just now, she felt something was wrong as soon as she said that, but it was too late for her to react, so she could only bite the bullet and continue to smooth things over.

She didn’t know why she shouted subconsciously. It was a bit too strange to say that it was because of the scene. In fact, she couldn’t confirm that Dr. Shinde was Vermouth in disguise, otherwise she would have started making plans to capture him long ago.

And Judy didn’t know why she felt sympathy for the little boy. Although Conan had left a good impression on her last time, he was still just a little boy after all…

“Sigh… What on earth am I doing… Am I really no longer suitable for investigation work like Shuichi said…”

Judy smiled at herself and turned away, but she did not give up. On the contrary, an unprecedented fighting spirit rose in her heart.

She will not give up investigating Dr. Arata, and she will not even give up investigating Koji Shimizu.

The woman’s intuition told her that both Shimizu Koji and the little boy just now were hiding huge secrets.

…

–

Vermouth did not hide her concern and curiosity about Conan along the way.

She didn’t think anything of it at first, but the more she watched “Detective Conan”, the more she felt an indescribable subtle feeling in her heart.

“Conan-kun? Why are you so scared of me? Is there something strange on your face?”

Entering the health room, Vermouth gestured to Shimizu Koji to take Haibara Ai to sit on the chairs first. She asked casually while changing into a white coat.

Vermouth is not the kind of person who would just have such wild ideas. Even though she possesses a kind of “miracle” that violates the laws of the world, it is still very different from something like rejuvenation.

So in her eyes, “Conan” is just a little weird boy who deserves attention.

Well, it has to be the child brought by Koji Shimizu, otherwise, she would not care about such an elementary school student at all.

Although she still likes children in her heart, Vermouth is aware of her identity and her physical condition. She will never allow herself to have the so-called “maternal” glory, as that will only be her fatal weakness and flaw.

While Vermouth was still here, Haibara Ai finally came back to her senses from the suffocation and fear that was like a dead pool. She looked at Shimizu Koji with eager eyes, and everything was self-evident.

Koji Shimizu knew that she was directly pointing out that Dr. Arata was a member of the organization, and wondered why he came here.

Although most of this is due to Haibara Ai herself, he does have some responsibility…

Looking at those watery, even trusting, dependent, eager and somewhat aggrieved big eyes, the little hands tightly grasping his clothes, and the pursed cherry-red lips.

Well, it’s all his fault.

Haibara Ai looks so cute that it’s unfair.

“Hey, don’t worry, you’re too nervous. You are ‘Conan’ now, do you understand?”

Shimizu Koji whispered softly in Haibara Ai’s ear.

And Ai, who would have pushed his head away in disgust in the past, was particularly well-behaved and cute today. She nodded gently, her little hands still holding him tightly. It was obvious that her only source of security now was Shimizu Koji.

Although he felt a little sorry for her being so scared, Koji Shimizu had to admit that Haibara Ai was so adorable in this state that he couldn’t get enough of her.

Vermouth put on her white coat and walked back. She first looked at Shimizu Koji curiously, and then turned her gaze to Haibara Ai who was lowering her head beside him.

Haibara Ai wanted to hug Shimizu Koji and sit in his arms, but she is still “Conan”, and doing so would be too incongruous and inappropriate.

“Has he always been so shy?”

“Maybe it’s because you’re afraid of doctors?” Shimizu Koji said uncertainly.

“Well, maybe you’re not feeling well… Conan, talk to Dr. Shinde, are you feeling unwell?”

Huibara Ai shook her head silently. She lowered her head and almost bit her lips.

She was 100% sure that the person in front of her was the disguised Vermouth woman, and it was precisely for this reason that she did not dare to say anything to Shimizu Koji.

“Could it be some psychological problem? Well, let me think about it, I’d better do a simple check first.”

Eighty percent of Vermouth’s kindness was out of consideration for Kōji Shimizu, and she intended to help him take a serious look at the condition of this “Conan”, but she took out the stethoscope and put it on, but in the end, Haibara Ai’s little hands tightly grasping the hem of her clothes became a solid barrier preventing her from examining her.

“Um, how about I do it?”

Shimizu Koji said tentatively.

He was not surprised that Vermouth really intended to cure the disease, but she did this right at the beginning… Haibara Ai would probably rather die than surrender.

The little boy and the little girl should actually be similar, but Koji Shimizu felt that Ai’s slight difference was not unusual under his training. In addition, Dr. Shinide, who was dressed up as Vermouth, had a man’s face after all. Although he knew her true identity, Koji Shimizu could not accept the feeling of being in front of her.

Vermouth looked puzzled, hesitated for two seconds, and then put the stethoscope in Shimizu Hiroji’s hands.

“Well then, Shimizu-san, you come.”

It’s hard to say what she feels, Vermouth just thinks that this kid named “Conan” has some autistic tendencies.

The subtle feeling that was there and not there before has become very weak as Haibara Ai’s reaction is no longer as intense and fearful.

Shimizu Koji took the stethoscope and was silent for a second before he pointed the stethoscope at Haibara Ai’s belly.

Huiyuan Ai hesitated for a few seconds before she gently released her hand from the hem of her clothes. Then, Shimizu Koji put the stethoscope in without hesitation…

“Hey…”

?

Vermouth suspected that Conan might have lung or stomach problems that caused him to be in such a bad mood, but after listening for a long time, she found that everything was normal.

It was not until she heard the beating heart of Huiyuan Ai and the meow of a cat that she came back to her senses in surprise…

“You, you are a girl?”

It is generally difficult to tell apart little boys and little girls, and because Haibara Ai didn’t want to attract too much attention from Vermouth, and with Conan’s disguise, she had no choice but to take off her mask and voice changer.

Then, Shimizu Koji made a careless move… She also accidentally cried out, and then –

Big crisis! !

Chapter 526 Only Silence

Vermouth frowned and looked at Shimizu Koji. She keenly discovered that something was wrong. Although it was normal for children to be of different genders, people like Haibara Ai were obviously disguised in a special way.

Could it be that you are——?

Shimizu Koji didn’t expect Vermouth to look at him like this. Who is he? He is a codenamed member of the famous Black Organization and the number one confidant of the Thousand-Faced Witch. What’s wrong with committing a crime? Is Japanese law considered law? !

However, I think so, but it is difficult to handle

“Click——”

The bullet was loaded, the safety bolt was pulled, and the pitch-black muzzle was pointed at the confused Vermouth. Shimizu Koji turned his head and looked at Haibara Ai, “Shiho, go and lock the door.”

Shiho!

There was a sudden bang, like thunder, and there was a brief blank in Vermouth’s brain. When she came back to her senses, her eyes became dangerous and gloomy. She probably understood.

Haibara Ai locked the door in a daze. She was a little confused, but she had some vague guesses in her heart.

When she turned around and walked back, she saw Dr. Shinide, who had a sunny smile on his face just now, ignoring the muzzle of the gun that Shimizu Koji was almost pointing at her face, and casually reached out and pulled from her neck. With a faint hissing sound, her bright golden hair was gorgeous and flowing, her delicate eyebrows and eyes contained the wild beauty of European and American women, and her bright red lips seemed to be covered with blood.

Vermouth casually threw the camouflage mask on the desk, then she took out a box of ladies’ cigarettes from her coat pocket and calmly lit one for herself.

A slender orange-red flame was held between her white fingers, her eyes were charming yet full of danger, like a rose with thorns, it was very appropriate to describe her.

Belmode!

Almost without thinking, this familiar name came to Haibara Ai’s mind, and her breathing became rapid. Even if Shimizu Koji pointed a gun at Vermouth’s head, she could not calm the fear hidden deep in her heart.

In terms of age, Vermouth can even be considered as her mother’s generation, or an older sister, but Haibara Ai has clearly felt countless times the undisguised murderous intent in Vermouth’s eyes when she looked at her.

Sometimes, Gin even served as her bodyguard.

“It’s really unexpected.”

There was some emotion in Vermouth’s voice, but there was no fear on her face, because she knew that if Shimizu Koji hadn’t shot her at the first moment, she would not have died – probably.

It is obvious that in Koji Shimizu’s heart, she still has some value.

“Shirley, you turned into a primary school student – tsk, or a girl dressed as a boy? Oh, wait, it’s Sarco? Do you like this kind of style?”

Vermouth looked at Shimizu Koji with a teasing look, but Shimizu Koji was naturally not polite now, he was very serious, okay!

“Okay, Vermouth, please stop talking about irrelevant things like this. Don’t you have anything else to ask?”

“Oh? What else is there to ask? Isn’t the answer clearly in front of me? Shirley, you are such a lucky woman.”

Vermouth had a playful look in her eyes as she followed Haibara Ai, watching her sit back next to Shimizu Koji step by step.

“Let me see your face, that annoying face I haven’t seen in a long time.”

Upon hearing this, Haibara Ai hesitated for a moment, and slowly removed the disguise on her face. However, compared to Vermouth’s wild and sexy movements, her movements were much more girlish.

The delicate and fair little face, ice-blue pupils, and cherry pink lips are the colors of a young girl, but the eyes that used to be cold and arrogant have now become quite complicated and weak.

Sarko——, she had never heard of this code name before.

There is no doubt that this is Shimizu Koji’s code name. Shimizu Koji, without telling her and her sister, went deep into the organization’s dangerous place alone. If this secret was revealed at any other time, she would have countless questions and words to say to Shimizu Koji.

But now, there is only silence.

Vermouth’s eyes flashed with an irresistible surprise, and she was rejuvenated.

This is real rejuvenation, she was a little dazed.

She was not pursuing this, she had suffered enough torture because she had lost her human feelings and was just a killing machine and intelligence tool of the organization, day after day, year after year.
