After returning to Beihua, Tatsuno and others also parted ways.

Sonoko went home to prepare for tomorrow's party, and Maori Kogoro also went home to study the horse racing carefully.

Conan was going to go to Dr. Agasa's house with Mitsuhiko and others to see if Dr. Agasa was at home.

Since they were going in the same direction, Tatsuno and Xiaolan first sent Conan and others to Dr. Agasa's house.

After returning home, Tatsuno said hello to Xiaolan, and then rode directly to the gathering place mentioned by Vermouth in the text message yesterday.

An hour later.

Tatsuno took a car to the downstairs of the Quandao Hotel in Haido Town.

Before entering the hotel gate, Tatsuno asked Xiaojia to carefully "check" the hotel in advance.

As expected, in the entire hotel, except for Vermouth, a member of the organization with weapons, there were no other noteworthy people.

As Tatsuno had guessed before, this did not seem to be a "trap" set for him by Vermouth.

However, the doubts in Long Ye's heart increased instead of decreased.

Since it was not for the purpose of "getting rid of me", then Belmode was most likely to tell him some information.

But... if that was the case, there was no need to specially call me here, right?

If she was worried about the news leaking, then Belmode could just find a scrap phone or "take" a phone from a passerby and contact me, wouldn't it be fine?

Moreover, if she was really worried about the news leaking, why would she directly send me that "invitation text message"?

Obviously, the reason why she called me here was not because she was worried about the "news leaking".

But if she was not worried about this, why did she specially call me here?

It was obvious that she could not be greedy for my body.

After all, I am only a young man in his teens now, and Belmode... maybe she is already his "grandmother".

She looked at me like a baby, and there was no way she could have other thoughts.

After smiling and shaking his head, Long Ye took the elevator in the hotel and went straight to the top floor.

Why guess if you can't guess?

Anyway, I'm here, just ask the person directly~

After getting off the elevator, Tatsuno walked straight to the door of Suite 2401 and knocked on the door.

Not long after, the door was opened.

Vermouth, wearing a nightgown, appeared in front of Tatsuno.

After seeing that the person coming was Tatsuno, Vermouth stretched out his right hand holding the gun behind him.

Seeing this, Tatsuno chuckled and said, "Don't be so careful~ Is there anyone else who knows you are here besides me?"

Vermouth did not reply, but pulled Tatsuno directly into the room, and then carefully closed the door.

Although Tatsuno was a little confused about Vermouth's actions, he didn't care too much.

After all, their meeting was not "open and aboveboard" to some extent, so it was right to be careful.

Tatsuno simply glanced at the room, then walked to the sofa in the hall and sat down directly.

A few seconds later, Vermouth also came over.

Before Tatsuno could speak, Vermouth handed him a laptop.

After taking a look at the content on the screen, Tatsuno frowned.

The screen showed information about the ‘Haneda Hiroshi murder case’.

This familiar name brought back Tatsuno’s long-lost memories.

If I remember correctly, this Haneda Hiroshi seemed to have been killed by Rum more than ten years ago.

At that time, Haneda Hiroshi seemed to be protecting Asaka… the later ‘Wakasa Rumi’.

He deliberately mentioned something about Karasuma Renya in front of Rum, so he was fed APTX-4869 by Rum and eventually died.

The information on the computer should have been posted online by Wakasa Rumi in order to lure out Rum.

But… why did Vermouth show him this?

“Do you know this person?”

At this moment, Vermouth picked up the red wine glass on the table and spoke elegantly.

"Well, I know. This chess player was fed ATPX-4869 by Rum more than a decade ago." Tatsuno said lightly.

Hearing this, Vermouth stopped holding the cup.

She looked at Rum opposite her in disbelief, and only came back to her senses a few seconds later, "Should I say you are worthy of it? You even do such a thing..."

Let alone this case happened more than a decade ago, it is not easy to know this.

In addition, Tatsuno actually said with certainty that 'Rum is the criminal'.

"The reason you asked me to come here is related to this case?" Tatsuno looked at Vermouth in front of him and asked.

Vermouth stared at Tatsuno's eyes for a few seconds, then raised his head and took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and chuckled: "WuTian Longye, now I am sure that I was right to ask you to come here. "

"You are really an incredible guy..."

After a pause, Vermouth put away the smile on her face, "Yes, the reason I asked you to come here is indeed related to this case."

"This case is the starting point of all the research of the organization... No, it should be said that it is the starting point of the organization's later research. "

Hearing this, Ryuno's eyes widened, and he looked ready to "eat melon".

Really?!

Is this what I can listen to now?

It seems... Sister Bayonet is really going to talk to me about the purpose of the organization, or even about things related to the BOSS?!

If you want to talk about this... I won't be sleepy anymore!

Seeing the sudden flash of expectation in Ryuno's eyes, Vermouth frowned, and for a moment she doubted whether she should tell the boy in front of her.

But in a flash, Vermouth closed her eyes and sighed.

Maybe I'm really tired...

This may be the closest and last time I'm to "freedom"...

Thinking of this, Vermouth put down the red wine glass in her hand and slowly said:

"Seventeen years ago, I received an order from the BOSS. He asked me to help Rum recruit a female capitalist named Amanda Hughes. "

"Of course, you probably know... this matter later failed. Amanda Hughes and Hiroshi Haneda were both fed ATPX-4869 by Rum and eventually died. "

"But... what I want to talk about is what happened before this."

Hearing this, Ryuno's expression gradually became serious.

If nothing unexpected happens, he will soon be able to touch... the real 'core' of the organization!

After taking a look at Ryuno, as if to help himself 'make up his mind', Vermouth lit a cigarette.

"The reason why the organization wants to recruit Amanda Hughes is for the human resources behind her."

"She has a very high reputation in the medical and scientific circles of the United States. It is said that many top scientific researchers have received her assistance in funding and connections."

"And in order to complete a 'superhuman research', the organization was recruiting top scientists in various fields at all costs at that time."

"The ATPX-4869 that made Shirley and others smaller is one of the results of that research."

"In addition... I am also the result of that research!"
