It is snowing today.
The sky was light ink-colored, and only a ray of sunshine could be seen through the gaps in the thick clouds.
The snow that fell on the roof was very light.
It's very cold outside the car, but it can't dampen Suzuki Sonoko's enthusiasm--Brother Yoshiki is so handsome ah ...
She screamed in her heart.
When Suzuki Sonoko heard Xiaolan say that Jiashu would bring a girl with him, she felt that her world had become dark, but when she saw the girl, she immediately revived.
"Why should I go too?"
Haibara Ai was sitting in the passenger seat, muttering while looking at the road ahead.
"Isn't it interesting when it snows?" Hayashi Yoshiki said with a smile.
"Brother Jiashu is right, it will definitely be fun!"
Sonoko grabbed the passenger seat from the back, leaned forward a little and said to Haibara Ai - although I don't know what the relationship between this kid and Brother Jiashu is, I just want to get to know him first.
However, Haibara Ai just glanced at her speechlessly, and the look of disgust immediately made Sonoko think of Conan.
Why are these two little ghosts the same?
But she was carefree and didn't care about it. She just turned her eyes and smiled and pulled Xiaolan to perform her ring threading magic.
Fortunately, there was no Conan to ruin her show this time.
"It's very interesting. The people who are meeting Yuanzi today should be magic enthusiasts, right?" Hayashi Yoshiki asked with a smile.
"Yeah! Yeah, we met in an online chat room, and then everyone suddenly suggested getting together offline."
"Then the man named Doi Takeshu you mentioned before--"
"Oh wow! Xiaolan, what are you talking about? Look at my performance, isn't it amazing? This is my show tonight."
As soon as Xiaolan started to speak, Sonoko immediately drowned her out with her voice at a higher pitch, and even covered her mouth with her hand.
Looking at the two high school girls playing in the rearview mirror, Xiao Ai was speechless. She glanced at the cheerful Hayashi Yoshiki again.
Is this everyday life at Cointreau…?
Thinking about the daily life of Gin and his gang, she just felt that it was quite divisive.
"So Sonoko is using the persona of a 30-year-old adult male to chat with people online?"
"That's right, so when I reveal my identity, it will definitely surprise everyone!"
"Well.....in that case, I do have a suggestion."
"What?"
"I'll help you dress up, Sonoko. Maybe your appearance will be even more impressive... How about it, do you want to try it?"
Hayashi Yoshiki's words made Yuanzi open her eyes wide in surprise.
After realizing it, she nodded hurriedly--
Not to mention that Sonoko and Xiaolan had discussed that Hayashi Yoshiki's aesthetic taste was very reliable, the fact that she could get Brother Jiashu to help her dress up was itself of great significance!
"It's okay to go to the party in the afternoon, right? How about trying a new hairstyle first?"
----
"Wow... Sonoko!!"
Xiaolan's exclamation was heard in the beauty salon.
She looked at Suzuki Sonoko, whose hair had just been trimmed and permed, and her expression became one of surprise and joy.
"H-How is it?"
"Very stunning!!"
"Really?"
"Yeah! It's really beautiful and suitable."
Yuanzi was almost overwhelmed by her best friend's constant praise. She looked in the mirror and found that she had the same hairstyle as the girl named Xiaoai. She felt inexplicably unconfident.
It seems...it's quite good-looking, huh?
As she watched, Suzuki Sonoko couldn't help but smile wildly.
What? It turns out that I am actually a beauty!
When she was looking proud in front of the mirror, Xiaolan couldn't help but look at Hayashi Yoshiki and exclaimed: "You are so awesome, Brother Jiashu."
Hayashi Yoshiki smiled but said nothing.
In fact, Suzuki Sonoko dressed very carefully today. She just took off the headband that sealed her beauty and changed her bob haircut, and she looked like two completely different people.
Huibara Ai nodded secretly beside her.
Although she looks cold, from the fact that she often flips through various fashion magazines, you can tell that Haibara Ai actually likes dressing up.
At this time, Hayashi Yoshiki secretly took a photo when no one was paying attention.
He found a good angle and sent it to Gin.
As soon as he sent it out, Yuanzi finally stopped being so conceited.
After they talked for a few words, seeing that the time was almost up, Hayashi Yoshiki took them to the car and headed to the party place.
And at this moment in a secret safe house--
Gin, a hardworking man who had been through another night, was lying on the bed and preparing to rest. Not long after he closed his eyes, he instantly caught the slight vibration from his mobile phone.
Gin turned on his phone without saying a word.
Cointreau: "Picture·jpg"
!!!
The moment he saw the content of the picture clearly, Gin sat up suddenly.
His dark green eyes were fixed on the photo, and a hint of coldness flashed in his eyes, while the corners of his mouth curled up in a cruel arc.
"Shirley..."
Cointreau only sent a photo and no other content.
Judging from the angle of the photo, he was obviously taking it secretly.
In other words, after accidentally discovering Sulli, he reminded himself immediately without making anything known?
At this moment, all of Gin's tiredness disappeared. He immediately stood up and walked out of the room. While sending a text message to Hayashi Yoshiki asking for the address, he kicked the door of the next room.
Bang!
The heavy sound gave Vodka a sudden shudder.
"What happened, bro!?"
"Let's go, Cointreau has found Shirley's trail."
"ah?"
After Vodka reacted, he immediately cleaned himself up.
The two left the safe house and got into a black car.
However, Hayashi Yoshiki had not replied yet, which made Gin frown... He called Hayashi Yoshiki, but the call indicated that the phone on the other end was turned off.
Gin narrowed his eyes.
Because he previously suspected that it was the organization codenamed after poison that took Sulli away, and now that Sulli has appeared and Cointreau is nearby and didn't answer the phone, he couldn't help but wonder if Cointreau was ambushed by that organization.
"Hurry up and check Cointreau's license plate number to see where he is now!"
"good!"
Vodka works immediately.
It was nearly twenty minutes later when he finally found the trajectory of Hayashi Yoshiki's vehicle... With a target in mind, Vodka immediately stepped on the accelerator and sped away.
"Buzz~!" "Buzz~!"
At this time, Gin's phone vibrated several times.
Cointreau: "Picture·jpg"
Cointreau: "Picture·jpg"
Cointreau: "Picture·jpg"
Cointreau: "…"
Several photos in a row.
However, in those photos, there was a woman with the same hairstyle as Shirley, laughing with her tongue sticking out and looking smug in front of the mirror.
Cointreau: "My phone just ran out of battery, so I just replaced the battery."
Cointreau: "How is it, similar?"
In a moment,
Gin's blood pressure soared, and he gripped the phone with such force that he nearly crushed it.
Damn Cointreau! Are you sick?
