Conan's winery play house

Chapter 206 Absinthe

The paper doll Mingmei, who looked like something from a ridiculous fairy tale, kept staring at Aito.

If an ordinary person was stared at by such a paper man, he might feel creepy.

But Aito doesn't know that. He likes to be watched.

He likes to be looked at by eyes that contain concentration, warmth, and love.

This will make him feel that he is important, special, and unique in the eyes of those who are watching him.

In contrast, he also likes to look at his family members with such warm and focused eyes.

The boy and the paper man looked at each other affectionately, but no one could notice this scene.

Because the paper man's eyes cannot show emotions, no matter what, the paper man is just a paper man after all, and the eyes are just a colored area, while the boy's eyes were blocked by sunglasses.

When there were no other customers in the cafe, Miyazawa Keiichi came over and took away the tableware from the boy's table.

"How does it taste?" The man who looked gentle and frail, like a teacher or an author or a painter, asked as a qualified waiter.

"The matcha mousse and lemon Yakult taste great together!" The white-haired boy answered the question without hesitation, as if he didn't need to think.

"As long as you like it." The man with black hair and gray eyes had soft eyes and a gentle smile.

"Mr. Amuro and my brother, please go back first, and leave the rest to me." He looked at Toru Amuro, who was still cleaning.

"Is that okay?" Toru Amuro looked at the boy who had been sitting there waiting for a while, and then at the kind-hearted man.

"It's just a small matter, one person is enough." Miyazawa Keiichi said with a smile.

"Thank you then. I'm afraid the child is already sleepy. I'll take him home first." Toru Amuro, who seemed to be very talkative and very understanding, said with a smile.

I randomly found an excuse to deal with the other person.

"Let's go, Aito, and say goodbye to Mr. Miyazawa." He touched the boy's hair.

"Goodbye Mr. Miyazawa." The white-haired boy wearing sunglasses held a paper figurine in his hand and said goodbye politely and well-behaved.

"Be careful along the way." Miyazawa Keiichi replied with great concern.

The blond man took the white-haired boy and left. Under the lights on both sides of the street, the backs of one big and one small looked very warm.

The man who was still in the cafe watched the figures, one large and one small, get into the car. After the car drove away, he was still working with a smile on his face.

After cleaning the cafe, I returned to the sink and washed my hands.

Once, twice, three times...

Meticulously, I washed it many times with hand sanitizer, took out disinfectant gel from my body, and finally put on a pair of gloves.

Take off your apron and close the door of the cafe.

Got into his car.

He put on the black coat worn by the passenger, took out a pair of multi-prescription translucent-rimmed glasses and put them on. From a gentle and frail man, he turned into someone who looked inexplicably dangerous and indifferent.

Even with a faint smile on his face.

[The undercover agent is indeed very annoying. Avicril is very cute. He is indeed the lovely flower in the organization. By the way, Avicril can indeed see the poison and antidote I gave.——Absinthe]

He uses a foldable phone to send text messages.

Then he put the phone back into his pocket.

"The future generation of the organization is indeed a seedling that needs to be taken good care of. We can't let the undercover's low-quality nutrients take care of the seedlings crookedly." The man said with unclear meaning.

Only half of his face could be seen in the rearview mirror, his white chin and light-colored raised lips.

…

Toru Amuro had already returned to the house in the car carrying Aito.

As soon as they entered the door, the robot Robert took the initiative to take the things in their hands, and even took off their coats and shoes for them. Then he hung the clothes on the coat rack and put the shoes in the shoe cabinet.

Toru Amuro didn't even need to bend down to take off her shoes.

He looked at the young man who seemed to have regained his composure. He thought about it a thousand times and finally chose to speak.

"Do you need me to accompany you tonight? I mean... sit by the bed and take care of you." He himself felt that something was wrong with what he said, so he added an explanation.

If Avril was a mature woman, "Do you need me to accompany you tonight?" This sentence is actually equivalent to an ambiguous hint, but Avril is just a child, and Toru Amuro did not go in an ambiguous direction.

I thought, so I blurted out such a sentence very easily.

Fortunately, children are children. Children cannot understand the ambiguous hints of so-called adults. They just showed a tangled expression of expectation and hesitation, and finally shook their heads as if very reluctantly.

"It's better not to do it." The young man pursed his lips and said.

"Why?" Toru Amuro asked.

Don’t you need him to accompany you? This is not possible.

What he wants is that Avril needs him and cannot leave him.

"If you stay with me, Brother Tou, you won't be able to sleep, right? You have to sleep well. If you don't sleep all the time, your body will not be able to survive." The young man said with a concerned tone.

"..." Toru Amuro looked at the young man who cared about him and was silent for a moment, then raised a smile.

"Aren't you going to have nightmares tonight?" he asked teasingly with a smile.

That's Bourbon's attitude.

"...With Sister Mingmei by my side, I will definitely not have nightmares." The young man held the paper figurine and said in a serious tone.

The blond man looked at the paper man, but felt that the eyes and the smile on his face, which were still false and lifeless even with the highlight, were full of inexplicable absurdity and distortion.

Even the light seen in his eyes became distorted and blurry.

"That's good, I hope I won't see a wet puppy in the bathroom tonight." Bourbon said in a joking tone.

"No." Aito promised.

The blond man smiled, and finally finished telling the other person a bedtime story before leaving the room.

Little by little, he will become an existence that Avril cannot leave.

Therefore, the first thing to do is to make Avicril a habit.

It only takes twenty-one days to form a habit and only one moment to give up a habit.

The time required to train a police dog usually ranges from eight months to one year.

What Toru Amuro wants is not just a habit, but a conditioned reflex instinct.

He wanted Avicril to turn listening to his words into an instinctive reaction.

No matter when or where, as long as Amuro Toru gives an order, he will subconsciously execute it unconditionally.

The blond man was sitting on the bed taking care of his gun, his blue-gray eyes calm and unwavering.

His sense of security comes from the gun he holds.

No other existence can give him enough security.

This is why he can't sleep every night.

After becoming an undercover agent, it has been difficult for him to sleep.

But he still lay on the bed, forced himself to close his eyes and went to sleep.

Just like what Avicril said, if a person doesn't sleep, his body won't be able to survive. Even if he can't sleep, he still has to close his eyes and rest.

On the other side, after Toru Amuro left, Aito took out his cell phone and started sending messages.

[Is the brother I saw in the cafe where Tou works today the brother of the organization? His style of poisoning food as soon as we meet is very suitable for everyone. What is the new brother's code name? - Everclear (Everclear)

】

Aito looked at the phone screen expectantly.

If the brother of the organization appears in the cafe, it must be to monitor Tohoku. And based on the address of the cafe, he can also monitor Shinichi, who lives in the Mori Detective Agency.

There is sister Qin Lei in the school, and there is another brother who is keeping an eye on me in the cafe below the office.

Brother Shinichi is under surveillance from all sides.

[That guy is absinthe, don’t pay attention to him. When he is around, don’t eat anything or drink water, unless you bring it yourself.——Gin]

[It is the habit of that guy to greet each other first by poisoning him, and he will usually give him the antidote. He has never poisoned any other members except traitors and undercover agents. He is a measured guy.——Gin]

[I understand, thank you papa.——Everclear]

Aito got the news he wanted to know and curled his eyes with satisfaction.

He recalled some information about absinthe in his mind.

Absinthe, pronounced Aibis in English, is a green anisette liquor. Ice water is usually added when drinking, and the green liquid will turn into turbid white.

The alcohol content can reach as high as 89.9% and as low as 45%. It is a strong liquor.

French absinthe is the best, and it was once used as medicinal wine, but there are also cases of people killing people after drinking absinthe.

It is both an angel that saves people and a devil that kills people. It is a wine that is very popular among artists.

The complex characteristics really fit what he saw in Brother Absinthe.

Belmode is vermouth, with an alcohol content of 15% to 20%, and absinthe is a strong liquor. They are different.
