I'm writing a novel in Ming Ke, if you mess with me, you'll be the heroine

Chapter 622: Abacus Clinking

Bourbon didn't know where the hint of hostility in Kill's eyes came from. He was now concentrating on finding Shuichi Akai's whereabouts.

Vermouth is free these days, and he is asking Vermouth for a simple method of disguise. He plans to disguise himself as a disfigured version of Akai Shuichi, hang out outside for a while, and see if he can get any other clues.

Seeing that Bourbon had ignored her, Gil simply spoke directly. After all, it was normal for members of the organization to have bad relationships. "Bourbon, it's your business if you want to find Akai Shuichi, but can you please complete the organization's mission first? All your tasks have fallen on me during this period. Look at my dark circles, they are almost as dark as your skin."

Chu Ming was initially quite excited when he saw Kiel firing at Bourbon, but upon hearing the content of her accusation, he silently retracted his head.

He said that he had been very idle during this period, and even when Bourbon was not there, there was no task for him to do. It turned out that someone was carrying the burden for him.

Bourbon also spread his hands in a very simple manner: "I only went to investigate after I had completed all my tasks. Are you sure that was my task?"

Kiel's face was cold and he didn't believe it at all. There was an unspeakable sarcasm in his tone: "If it's not your mission, whose mission could it be? Many missions only have a follow-up. The previous confirmation signatures were all signed by Bourbon. Could it be that someone did a good deed and signed your name after completing the mission?"

"I was the one who did those missions." Bourbon was even more speechless after hearing that, "But the missions were not mine."

"..."

Chu Ming saw that their conversation was obviously heading in a direction he didn't want to hear. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer he would be overwhelmed by the mission, so he stood up and stuffed the information in his hand to Gin: "I'm leaving first. By the way, I'll find a chance to see if I can blend in with the group of police officers."

Gin did not stop him. He originally called Chu Ming over because he wanted him to meet Ireland. After all, Ireland was one of the top people in the American action team. Knowing him would be of some help to Chu Ming in taking over the organization in the future.

Gin also didn't understand what Chu Ming was thinking. He was either shouting for the boss to give up his position or clamoring to launch a coup. However, his slogans were loud but his actions were slow. The boss even secretly told him to help Chu Ming more, but the person involved was not in a hurry at all.

Chu Ming, who had already run away, had no idea that Gin had taken on such a difficult task from the BOSS. He originally wanted to go to the hospital to find Conan.

But when they arrived at the hospital, Xiaolan said that Conan had to go back to the office alone in the afternoon because she had to stay to take care of Kogoro Mouri. She had originally thought of asking the doctor to take care of Conan.

Chu Ming waved his hand when he heard this, saying that he would take good care of Conan and asked her to focus on taking care of her father.

When Chu Ming arrived downstairs at the Maori Detective Agency, it was pitch black upstairs. If it weren't for the focus list, he would even suspect that Conan was not there at all.

He walked up the stairs slowly. The corridor was dark and the voice-controlled lights were not very sensitive. He deliberately increased the weight of his steps, and the sound of tapping slowly spread upstairs.

After finally arriving at the door, Chu Minggang stretched out his hand to knock on it. Before he could say anything, the door suddenly opened a crack. At the same time, a silver light suddenly attacked his neck.

Chu Ming quickly dodged the silver light and looked towards the attacking source with surprise.

——Conan was standing there in a daze, holding up his anesthesia watch.

He realized that he had attacked the wrong person, rubbed his hair in annoyance, opened the door to let Chu Ming in, and hurriedly apologized: "I'm sorry, Brother Chu Ming, I just had a nightmare, I was confused, I thought-"

"Nightmare? What nightmare?" Chu Ming was a little surprised. "Can you still be frightened by a nightmare? Didn't you say before that dreams and reality are opposites?"

"I dreamed that I was discovered by Gin. He knew that I was Kudo Shinichi, so he came with vodka and captured me. He was also going to kill Xiaolan..." Conan wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and paused for a moment. "I just woke up with a fright, and I heard footsteps outside the door, just like in my dream, followed by knocks on the door--"

Conan's nightmare (Xiao Ke has an Afu filter, the vodka in the dream is almost as high as gin)

Chu Ming looked at Conan who was frightened and couldn't help laughing. No wonder he had a lot of points credited to his account as soon as he arrived at the door. He didn't know what was going on. It turned out that Conan was scaring himself.

"It seems that I scared you. So, to make amends, I'll stay with you tonight so that you don't have to worry about it alone." Chu Ming picked up Conan and took him back to his home despite his weak resistance.

"Brother Chu Ming, you shouldn't have brought me here. What if that organization discovers my identity, wouldn't that implicate you?" Conan, wearing the duck one-piece pajamas that Chu Ming bought specially, sat on the bed sullenly and persuaded Chu Ming, not caring how childish his clothes were.

"It's too late." Chu Ming casually threw a box of milk to Conan and teased, "You were really afraid of getting me into trouble. You shouldn't have dragged me into the bathroom. As a result, I had to watch a dramatic performance."

Conan knew that he couldn't argue with Chu Ming, and he also knew that he couldn't persuade him at all, so he could only shut up.

Seeing that he was finally quiet, Chu Ming stuffed a stack of newspapers into his arms and said, "Look, there's a serial murder case recently. The murderer would put a mahjong with a red circle, a secret code on the back and vertical black lines next to the body... If you're bored, why not check some cases to change your mood?"

"Or, forget it--" Conan was hesitant for once. He was indeed itching to take part in the case, but it was obviously inappropriate for him to show up at this time.

"You can investigate under the identity of Kudo Shinichi, and then tell the truth to Officer Megure. That way, even if the organization investigates, they will only find out that you have only contacted the police, and they might turn their attention away from this." Chu Ming fooled Conan, "Also, this case involves a wide range of people. I heard that the Metropolitan Police Department will invite all local police forces involved in the case to gather in Tokyo. Uncle Mori might also be invited by then. It doesn't hurt if you check it in advance."

Chu Ming was calculating abacus, but unfortunately Conan not only couldn't hear it, he even thought Chu Ming was very considerate.
