Conan: I Am Not a Snake Spirit

Chi Feichi knew what Yan Nan Takatori meant by 'relationship'.

For a long time, 'Vermouth' was translated as 'absinthe', but in fact, Belmode should be vermouth, and the real absinthe is 'Absinthe'.

Absinthe, Ai Bisi, the main raw materials are anise, fennel, and wormwood, with a high degree of alcohol content, ranging from 45% to 89.9%. A nickname for 'La Fee', the 'Green Fairy'.

The wine colors of Abis are blue-green, grass-green, brown-yellow, black, red, and colorless. Among them, the absinthe with fennel will cause a suspending emulsion effect after adding ice water.

It is said that Abis originated in ancient Greece and Rome. People soaked certain plants in wine for ritual or medical use, that is, medicinal wine.

In the beginning, Abis was a drink for the French army. In the middle of the 19th century, some wealthy capitalists began to drink this wine.

In 1870, French vineyards were plagued by insects, and wine became scarce and expensive. During the period of wine shortage, Abis quickly became popular and became the darling of bar culture.

In 1890, in the last decade of the 19th century, France advocated hedonism, and Abis was given the term "aphrodisiac", which became synonymous with "red light district".

In 1910, Abis was banned in Switzerland, and a large amount of Abis wine was sold to France.

In 1912, the United States promulgated the Abis Prohibition, and a large amount of alcohol was also sold to France.

In 1915, Abis was banned in France...

This is a kind of alcohol that has been plagued by disasters and has been banned in many countries in Europe. The reasons for the ban are hallucinogenic, aphrodisiac, and indulging in hallucinations.

In fact, as one of the main raw materials of Abis, there is indeed a chemical called 'absinthe brain', which is similar to the effective chemical component tetrahydrocannabinol in marijuana, which can make people feel not only The feeling of being drunk, but it is not comparable to the ingredients of hallucinogens, and drinking it properly will not cause much impact.

However, at that time, many artists, Abis, drank heavily all day long to anesthetize themselves and seek inspiration.

Among the lovers of Abis at that time, there were many outstanding artists and writers, such as Hemingway, Picasso, Van Gogh, Degas, Wilde, etc., and created many works for Abis.

Wilde of England described the hallucinations brought by Abis: "Walking on the street in the cold night after drinking, I felt that clusters of tulips were rubbing against my feet", and the popularity of Abis , so that there are more drunks wandering around the city at midnight.

Therefore, Abis was hostile and boycotted by the moralists. When Degas' masterpiece "Absinthe" was sent to London for exhibition, it also triggered the "anti-French wave" of the British, thinking that this wine was "French poison". .

Around the same time, Van Gogh from the Netherlands to France also fell in love with this wine. He sketched in the countryside during the day and drank Abis obsessively at night.

Ever since, Abis seems to have been endowed with some kind of magical power, and it has become a poison in the eyes of many people. In just a few years since the Swiss Prohibition began, most European countries have issued a ban on alcohol, prohibiting the production, sale, and consumption of alcohol. Abis.

It was not until 1998 that the United Kingdom issued an approval to allow Abis to be legally sold in the European Union, and it was not until 2000 that Abis was completely lifted.

During the decades when Abis was banned, wine bugs racked their brains to create anisette, a derivative that also smells like anise.

The fennel wine to which raki wine belongs, removes the ingredient of "Yang AI" in the production method, and is mainly made of fennel oil extracted from anise and anise.

Due to the strong taste and poor aroma of Abis when drunk purely, coupled with the "suspended milk effect", it is mostly drunk with water, and Abis after drinking with water will have a fragrance that lingers between the lips and teeth, and has a leisurely aftertaste. This drinking method is also followed, except for some cocktail preparation methods, most of them are drunk with ice water.

At the same time, Belmode is also vermouth. As a flavored wine made with various plant ingredients such as wormwood, cumin, juniper berries, cloves, etc., it has also become a favorite of Abis lovers. An option, which at some point is also translated as 'absinthe' as represented by Abis.

He began to ponder the rules of the naming code earlier than Takatori Yano.

Takatori Geno's code name is 'Slivova', which is blue plum brandy among fruit brandies.

Blue Plum Brandy is made from blue-purple plums through fermentation, secondary distillation, and storage. It is amber in color, has a prominent fruity aroma, a strong alcoholic taste, and a slightly bitter taste.

'Blue-purple plum' may be the source of inspiration for that one, corresponding to his eye color, and compared with brandy and other fruit brandies, blue plum brandy is hardly used as a cocktail mixing material, and it also meets Takatori's strict The man only cares about following him, not caring about actions that have nothing to do with him.

However, there is indeed a subtle relationship between anisette and vermouth. For example, both are substitutes for absinthe. It's also like a patch, but he knows very well that when that one decides his code name is 'Lack', that one doesn't know that he can disguise, and he doesn't know that he and Belmode are brothers and sisters of the same school , decided to give him the code name 'Luck', there must be other reasons.

He has not found a specific rule so far, that is to say, that person may give the code name according to the color of the wine, according to the material of the wine, or even a certain legend.

"She is my senior sister, but this matter has nothing to do with the code name." Chi Feichi gave the answer to Takatori Yannan, paused, and then asked, "Already registered for Takayama Otome's club?"

"Yeah, this time she asked Pusheng to contact me for the reason of celebrating their successful club registration," Takatori Yannan said, "I deliberately asked her about the news about the club registration as you said, and let her When I found that I had no one under my command, she also tentatively expressed the cooperation intention of 'she gets people, I get channels', I just said that I still have to think about it, but I didn't give her a clear answer."

"Don't do other things during this time. If she asks Pusheng to call or send you a text message, you can respond, but don't agree to meet for the time being, and let Gao Shan's appetite be hung on first," Chi Feichi said, "With When Pusheng contacts, you can tentatively ask about the share after the cooperation, let them find out your bottom line, and settle the matter at the next meeting, and hand over the smuggling line to Gao Shan."

"I understand!" Yan Nan Takatori nodded, took out his mobile phone to read the email, "Calvados was safely evacuated... By the way, boss, Rum sent me an email, Handie Society's current law The consultant is his person, and he said that his people will find ways to gain the trust of Otome Takayama, and asked me not to interfere with the other party's actions."

"Well, Rum told me." Chi Feichi said.

Takatori Yannan took a puff of cigarette, put his right elbow on the car window, looked at the night scene that was constantly updated with the speed of the car ahead, "I didn't say that Pusheng was the main one, and Rum's people were only responsible for helping her." , Is it used to deal with the crisis?"

"Pusheng is only fifteen years old, and she is still a child at heart. Regardless of her age, experience, ability, or personality, Lang Mu can't trust her, so Lang Mu will send a more mature and experienced person to sneak into the Cold Butterfly Club and win over those members. Provide action information for the organization when necessary," Chi Feichi drove, turned a corner, and kept an eye on the surrounding terrain, "Did Langmu tell you to keep his identity a secret?"

This is double insurance, which can provide more accurate information in a more timely manner.

If Pusheng Caixiang got caught up in something, they still had people sent by Rum to help gather information, and the confirmation of the information from both parties could also ensure that one of the two people did not fool them.

In addition, Kurahashi Kenichi was also assigned to Germany. If Kurahashi Kenichi or Uramo Ayaka wanted to betray the organization, they had to first consider how to deploy people behind the organization's back and protect their cherished people across borders.

"He said, except for you and that one accident, keep it a secret from everyone else," Takatori Yannan saw near the station, and stretched out his hand to tear off the disguised face of the bearded man, "Don't worry, I don't care about the rules of the organization." I understand, I haven't mentioned it to Pu Sheng or anyone else."

Chi Feichi parked the car outside Sawabukuro Station, "Leave the disguise face behind, I'll take care of it for you later."

"Then it will save me a lot of trouble." Yan Nan Takatori smiled, put his disguise face next to the seat, got out of the car and closed the door, and walked to the platform without looking back.

Chi Feichi drove away.

It is only one station away from Kuboto-cho, and it takes less than ten minutes for Takatori Geno to get home.

He also needs to find a hidden and safe place to park the car, and change his face and car to go home.

...

a week later...

In the gray car bound for Karuizawa, Mori Kogoro was driving, and Chi Feichi sat in the passenger seat holding Conan who had a cold.

In the back seat, Suzuki Sonoko, Mao Lilan, and Haibara Ai sat in a row, talking in low voices.

"Ah!" Conan tilted his head and sneezed, sniffing his nose without energy.

Chi Feichi silently handed over a tissue.

This is the kid from his teacher's house, he doesn't dislike it.

"Uh, thank you Brother Chi." Conan took the tissue and wiped his nose. Feeling his friend's thoughtfulness, he pulled Chi Feichi to talk, "Huiyuan said your car was sent for inspection?"

Chi Feichi gave an 'hmm', unwilling to recall the miserable state of his car.

Today, he planned to drive his car to Karuizawa, but when he went to the parking lot early in the morning, he found several cat scratch marks on the door and roof of his car, as well as various food residues. and cat footprints.

According to the reports of the crows, Wuming took a group of cats to his car last night and held a carnival party.

He said why he hadn't seen Wuming performing the act of a 'scumbag' in the past two days, and he didn't see Wuming squatting in front of the apartment when he came home at night. It turned out that the scumbag had changed his routine.

"What? This time I'm going to your family's villa in Karuizawa. Are you planning to go to the nearby tennis court to catch handsome guys?"

In the back seat, Mao Lilan cried out in surprise, "Did you quarrel with Kyogoku?"
