I’m the Pay Thief at the Winery

When Chihori left Dr. Akasa's house, she was quite satisfied.

Not only was he finally able to make his own sword, but he also gained first-hand information about the incident at the station in the morning.

Conan was a little dizzy with the new news she brought. Begin to think hard about the organization's role behind the conflict between the Rat Swarm and the Cyan Origin.

It wasn't just him who was also disturbed by this news.

Yuwei had just been reprimanded by the boss of the group of mice, and returned to his office in a sullen mood.

There, an uninvited guest was waiting for him.

"Mr. Feather." Mello looked back from the window, her face still had a smile on her face, but if you looked closely, you could see the stiffness in the smile, "I really have to seriously doubt whether I chose the wrong partner now. ."

"Do you think so?" Feather didn't even look at her, she sat behind the desk with a gloomy face, and took the photo in her hand on the desk, "Look, I'm also curious, this matter Who the **** caused it?"

Melo had a bad premonition in her heart, and this premonition reached its climax when she saw the blurry figure on the photo.

"...Konjak?"

"You really know him." Yuwei crossed her chest with her arms, raised her chin, and said aggressively, "Tell me, why does your affair affect us?"

Said he was going to deal with Qi... But now Qi has nothing to do, and his business has been ruined twice.

Not to mention the aftermath of the attack. This is no longer a situation he can control.

Mello regretted her reaction a little. Obviously she could just pretend not to know this person.

...However, Feather seems to be quite sure that he knows Konyak?

"Did someone ask you to come to me?" Melo's face darkened little by little, "Who is it? Did you see Konyak?"

What was he thinking about?

Is this what the organization means?

"The people at Cyan Origin. Obviously, they know about you." Feather-tail looked at her and said coldly, "Don't tell me, you're not going to tell me your identity at this point—and of course, this 'Cognac'."

"Does this have anything to do with our cooperation?" Melo said without showing weakness, "I do know him, but how do I know why he wants to assist Cyan Origin? Don't you offend him before, and now you are being called to the door. Come on, you want to push the fault on me again!"

Feather's expression became worse and worse, and he waved his hand irritably, "Don't talk nonsense here! Our cooperation will end now. I don't have the heart to play your nasty game with you recently."

He has to be busy making up for the two businesses he screwed up before, and he has to plan to guard against the blue origin. By the way, he can't be seized by other people in the organization... In short, he will definitely not be able to rest.

As for that Cognac...

Nothing more than a mercenary or a bounty hunter. At most, it's just a little bit of skill.

Without this woman, they can handle it.

"End?" Melo repeated the word slowly, raising his chin gently, "This is not something you can just end if you want to."

"What do you mean?"

"Literally." Melo smiled mockingly, "Haha... You know, you've already dealt with Qi, haven't you? At least half of his business now goes to our doctor."

Not only that, since Cognac was also involved, this matter has become a matter of the organization.

She had to go to Konyak to ask.

If it can't be resolved internally...

Melo's eyes darkened a lot.

She left her feather tail and walked out of his office in a hurry. She saw many members of the rat group in a hurry in the corridor.

If it was normal, she would probably find a few men to tease and play with great interest. It's a pity she's not in the mood today.

- This also made her fail to notice that when she walked out of the gate of this small building, a woman with long black hair cut off to the waist and a delicate appearance like a doll cast a surprised look at her. .

…

When Merlot hurried to the base where Maraschino was located, it was just midnight.

"...Mello?" Maraschino hasn't slept yet - Gin has had a great time fighting with the FBI, and recently seems to be investigating an FBI who is said to be coming to Japan, which also led him to deal with a lot of Mission report - so he's been staying up late lately.

"Where is Konyak lately?" Melo didn't bother to greet him, and asked directly, "I want to find him and have something to say to him."

Maraschino's expression seemed a little strange, he glanced behind Mello without a trace.

"Uh... Before this, someone actually came over just now, looking for you..."

Mello was taken aback, "Who? Konyak?"

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly felt cold behind her back. A faint smell of chemicals filled the air.

"It's me, Mello." The man behind her laughed cheerfully, his tone was so light that he seemed to float to the sky, "Why, seeing me makes you so unhappy?"

Mello turned her head somewhat stiffly, and Chat's familiar face appeared beside her.

"...You're still so elusive."

"Thank you, I'll take it that you are complimenting me." Nan Ling said briskly, "Let's talk in another place."

Maraschino was visibly relieved.

Mello followed Nan Ling into an vacant room. This should be a training ground - after all, there is no furniture or furnishings here.

"You have something to do with me, Chat?"

She stood not far from the door, watching Nan Ling vigilantly.

"No no no, it should be 'what's the matter with you here'." Nan Ling stood in the center of the room, turned around and shook his fingers, looking at her with a look that made Melo feel uncomfortable, "The organization doesn't care. Just because the members usually do, doesn’t mean the organization doesn’t know.”

Melo narrowed her eyes.

Of course she knew what Chat was talking about.

But, what just happened this morning, Chat came over at night...

"Are you here to represent the organization and ask Konyak and I to stop fighting?"

"Of course not." Nan Ling seemed a little dissatisfied that she would think of herself so much, so she spread her hands helplessly, "How could I do such a boring thing?"

"Then what are you doing?" Melo frowned. She didn't want Chat involved, that would only make it more confusing.

"Me... I'm just here to prevent the possibility of you making peace in private." Nan Ling chuckled, "Why, don't you think it's very interesting? Rats and the blue origin are natural enemies. As chess pieces, no one is there. More qualified than them. And you—as members of the organization, are there any more evenly matched opponents than this?”

He looked at the puzzled expression on Melo's face and nodded with satisfaction.

"I'm curious, what will this chess game be like in the end?"
