Bandage fine tricks

Akashi Seijuro stopped in his tracks.

"It seems that someone is one step ahead of us," Hachi said softly when Akashi Seijuro was thinking about how to behave politely, "Let's change places."

——The waiters at the banquet will not run around randomly, the blond waiter will appear here, it is only possible that some guests in that direction ask him to deliver drinks.

And in that direction, they didn't see any guests, so it can be inferred that the guest could only stay on the balcony.

There are some unwritten rules at the banquet, such as the hidden space like the balcony, if someone arrives first, if the latecomer notices this, they must find another place in accordance with etiquette.

After all, the other party will stay in such a place, and his behavior itself conveys the meaning of "please don't disturb me". Any gentleman or lady who understands this polite refusal should respect the behavior of others.

This is why Akashi Seijuro stopped just now.

He didn't expect this lady to be aware of this "hidden rule". Did Mr. Yuji say it in advance, but it doesn't make sense to say such a deep hidden rule, but not the most obvious and straightforward part. ah……

If it wasn't for Mr. Yukichi's prior instructions, Akashi Seijuro could only think of one explanation: this was what she observed.

I always feel that even if I don't take care of myself, if I let this lady stay at the banquet for 10 minutes, she will be able to figure out all the rules, both explicit and hidden...

Akashi Seijuro made such a judgment in his heart, and took Xiao Hachi to another balcony: the secrecy of the banquet is not as good as the previous one, but from here you can have a panoramic view of the courtyard.

For Xiao Ba, staying on this balcony has another advantage: she can clearly see the person on the balcony just now without revealing her figure.

The girl in the pale pink rose dress stepped into the balcony, glanced quickly to the other side, then moved her position slightly, and entered the blind spot of the balcony—whether it was from the outside or from several other balconies, only You can see the few flower trees that block her figure.

Akashi Seijuro closed the sliding door leading to the balcony and walked over. He hadn't found a new topic yet, but was taken aback by a gust of wind: the fragrance of flowers.

"The flowers in the courtyard are blooming." He walked to Xiaoba's side, looked at the brightly lit courtyard with her, and said softly.

The girl with black hair and tea eyes closed her eyes: "Well, it's very fragrant."

——The smell of artificial perfume mixed in the evening wind.

There is also a human scent that is double masked by floral notes and artificial perfumes.

It was difficult, but she recognized it.

The most important thing is the smell.

Perfume was sprinkled on Belmode, but Xiao Ba saw her in the state of a cat at that time. In that state, Xiao Ba's sense of smell was unprecedentedly strong. Even though it was covered by perfume, she still remembered Bell under the perfume. The real scent of mod.

Now, with the evening wind, she smelled the scent of the woman under the perfume.

The direction came from the direction of the balcony she wanted to go to first.

——Sure enough, just now Mr. Amuro took advantage of the opportunity of delivering wine to exchange information on the banquet with Belmode, right?

As the waiter at the banquet, Mr. Amuro can walk around the banquet and listen to the chat messages of the people around him without attracting any attention.

What was Belmode doing there?

Listen to the information gathered by Mr. Amuro, and choose what you need?

Her other identity is the American actress Sharon Wynyard... Oh, no, Sharon Wynyard should be "dead" in this timeline now, so her identity should be Chris Wynyard now, based on this When the identity appears at the banquet, it will become the focus of the crowd...

So it's not suitable for intelligence gathering?

What do they want to do?

Belmode is a member of the black organization. Although netizens always tease that gin is the only real wine in the distillery, Belmode's attitude is ambiguous and indeterminate, but in fact, if Kudo Shinichi and Mori Ran are not involved , she is still a firm member of the organization.

The organization in black is going to attack someone at the banquet?

But what does this have to do with their trip to Zhijia not long ago...

Xiao Bayi fell into deep thought for a while, until the sound of polite knocking on the window frame came from behind.

She and Akashi Seijuro who were also surprised looked at each other, and the red-haired boy asked, "Who is that?"

"Hello, a gentleman asked me to bring drinks over."

waiter?

Delivering drinks, my father doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing, is it her elder, or... some stranger?

In the bar, there is a reason to invite the lady you like to drink as a reason to strike up a conversation, but it is a bit inappropriate to put it at a banquet.

Akashi Seijuro looked at Hachi, seeing that she did not object, he said, "Come in."

The waiter responded, pushed open the door and came over.

Xiao Ba was stunned: "It's you..." Mr. Amuro.

——The waiter with blond hair and wheat-colored skin whom I met just now.

But immediately, Akashi Seijuro's attention was attracted by the drink that the waiter put in front of Hachi.

The same is true for Xiao Ba, she has the urge to rub her eyes - because of etiquette, Xiao Ba didn't do this, but closed her eyes hard, and then opened them again, she was sure that she was right, and the fragrant breath in the air Tell her she's right: "...milk?"

—Who would invite someone to drink milk at a banquet!

"Yes," said the blond, wheat-colored young waiter with a gentle smile on his face, "it was given to you by a gentleman who drank Scotch whiskey. Then, I will take my leave first."

The waiter who completed the task left, leaving two teenagers and girls facing the milk on the flower table, and the air was silent for a while.

After a while, Akashi Seijuro asked, "Do you know who he is talking about?"

"This... let me think about it..." Xiao Ba rubbed her forehead, she didn't think this glass of milk was really just for her to drink.

She has never drank any Scotch whiskey, but on the road following Akashi Seijuro just now, she saw a lot of people holding whiskey in their hands, and she sifted from this aspect... No, she went the wrong way, and she didn't think from this aspect.

Mr. Amuro's code name in the Black Organization is Bourbon, Belmode is Absinthe, and Scotch Whiskey... is also the code name of someone in the distillery?

"Generally speaking, under what circumstances do people drink milk?" Xiao Ba looked at the milk, as if talking to himself, "Breakfast, no, it's night...evening, before going to bed?"

If you want to sleep, you have to go back...

Scotch, please, drink her milk.

——Because of someone's reasons, she was asked to leave the banquet quickly.

Mr. Amuro is an undercover agent of the distillery. The hint he gave himself should be more than that... Then, the focus should be on this "Scotch whiskey".

Who is Scotch Whiskey?

Someone related to Mr. Amuro, maybe also Hong Fang... Make yourself leave the banquet quickly, is it related to him?

Xiao Ba stared at the glass of milk, as if he could figure out the reason by staring at it like this: Mr. Amuro seems to be very familiar with her cat form, and even called her "Nanai's cat", but this Nana is not a mother. Could it be...

Is it herself?

If this is the case, it makes sense... It seems that the self before amnesia can freely switch between cats and humans, and even the acting skills are so superb that it can make an elite undercover mistakenly think that this is a combination of one person and one cat, not Associating with the same person.

Judging by his familiar attitude, I probably had a good relationship with him in the past, but whether it was at the door of the bookstore or at the banquet, I always acted like I didn't know him...

Personal connection?

The secret sign of Scotch whiskey also has something to do with this?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt a headache, and Xiao Ba couldn't help but rubbed his forehead again. It's really inconvenient not to have the memory of the past ten years, and he couldn't even crack a code that should be very simple.

But the general meaning should still be clear.

——Mr. Amuro judged that there were factors unfavorable to her at this banquet (most likely related to the "Scotch whiskey" he mentioned), so he asked her to leave the banquet quickly.

Xiao Ba hesitated.

...Do you want to listen to him?

It was Mr. Yuji's request that she would come to this banquet, and she could roughly guess what the other party was thinking: probably she hoped that she could socialize with peers at the banquet and make new friends.

Now, for the sake of a vague hint from a person who only has impressions from comics (this impression comes from someone else's processed second biography), do you want to reject Mr. Yukichi's kindness and leave early?

Closing her eyes, Xiao Ba sighed, and looked at the young man who had remained silent all this time without affecting her thinking: "I'm sorry, it's a bit abrupt to say this, but...can you take me to Mr. Yuji's?"

Nana should be able to read his hints, right?

The omnipotent waiter who was at the banquet watching all directions and listening to all directions smiled and dealt with the surrounding guests, while leaving some attention to a certain direction on the second floor.

Even if she forgot everything, but Nana's ability is there, she should be able to interpret such a simple hint.

It would be great if I could stimulate her by the way and restore her memory.

If her memory is restored, she will be able to remember the reason why she left, and it will be more convenient for her to protect her own safety... However, Nana seems to be a little younger when we meet this time?

Repercussions?

Toru Amuro doesn't know much about her superpowers, but Nana's ability to survive must be related to her special abilities. Maybe this younger appearance is the sequelae caused by the activation of special abilities?

It's good to be able to survive, and the rest can be said slowly in the future.

Toru Amuro was thinking, still with the waiter's polite smile on his face, served a low-alcohol drink to a certain girl, and then walked towards the bar, but his thinking still did not stop.

After this mission is over, do you want to contact Jing?

If Nana lost her memory, she would probably forget the scene, and she would never expect to be safe with Jing.

In this way, Jing may think that Nana is missing... Should I tell him?

Mr. Undercover didn't think about it for a while.

To be honest, he didn't really want to tell his friends the news.

One's own helper protects himself, but...

Jing did not protect Nana well.

Back at the bar, while waiting for the bartender, Toru Amuro took out his mobile phone, sent a message, and then blacklisted the person who just sent the message, so as to prevent the foreseeable indiscriminate bombardment of phone and text messages in the future.

I don't have selfish intentions to make Jing anxious =v=

The bartender had finished the drinks he needed, and the blond waiter thanked him politely, carrying a tray full of alcoholic drinks, and returned to the banquet hall to shuttle among the crowd and continue his duties.

"Ma'am, the Margarita you want." He placed a cocktail plate with lemon slices in front of a woman in her twenties.

"Ah, thank you." The lady expressed her gratitude reservedly, and the ring on the hand that reached out to pick up the cocktail saucer caught the waiter's eyes for a moment.

Move away quickly.

"It's my honor to be able to serve you." He stroked his chest and saluted. After winning the lady's smile, he withdrew and continued on to the next guest.

Ring.

He thought of Nana's hand stretched out to receive her student ID card at the door of the bookstore.

She was wearing the flower ring on the index finger of her right hand.

But that flower ring...

Didn't Nana say that she was afraid of being lost again and should keep it safe, so she took it off and strung it on a leather cord to hang it around her neck?
