Chapter 544: Haibara Ai drinks the pink serum

USA, FBI Headquarters.

In a medium-sized conference room, a group of federal investigators of various skin colors sat together, holding an investigation meeting.

On the conference room screen, a woman with short, straight golden hair and glasses was giving a report.

"Recently, signs of Black Organization activity have appeared frequently in the Tokyo area. Our intelligence analysis team has concluded that the reconstruction of the Black Organization's Tokyo branch is complete!"

"What? Reconstruction is complete?"

The FBI agents present were surprised and began to discuss it.

"Last time, because of that Onmyoji, they lost several strongholds, dozens of peripheral personnel, and two named members died."

"I heard that because of this, the person in charge of the Tokyo area for the Black Organization was transferred away."

"I didn't expect them to recover so quickly; this Black Organization is really not simple."

"Jodie Starling, who is the person in charge of the Black Organization's Tokyo branch now?" asked a gray-haired middle-aged man with glasses.

Jodie Starling adjusted her glasses and replied:

"We received intelligence that the latest person in charge of the Black Organization in the Tokyo area is Vermouth, known as the Witch of a Thousand Faces!"

"Vermouth?" The middle-aged man's pupils contracted slightly when he heard the name.

Jodie Starling continued:

"I believe everyone is no stranger to the name of the Witch of a Thousand Faces, Vermouth. She is proficient in disguise, skilled in infiltration, has outstanding deduction skills, and first-class marksmanship. She has escaped from under our noses many times and is a tricky character."

"Just yesterday, a colleague happened to discover Vermouth's residence and found out that she seems to be secretly investigating something."

"Because Vermouth's intuition is unusually sharp, I was worried she would notice something wrong and escape, so I didn't arrange for an arrest immediately."

"I contacted headquarters this time because I want headquarters to send elites to assist me in capturing Vermouth."

The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, then turned and said: "Akai Akai Shuichi, you are Japanese and proficient in Japanese. How about you take responsibility for the support of the Tokyo area?"

"Mm, that's no problem." Akai Akai Shuichi replied coldly.

The middle-aged man looked at him and said: "I hope you remember that this trip to Tokyo should focus on capturing Vermouth!"

"She is a major operative of the Black Organization. If we can capture her, we might be able to strike at the heart and root out the Black Organization..."

Evening, Beika Town.

Near the Araide family clinic, Jodie sat in her car, took off her headset, and a smile appeared on her face:

"Just came back from Teitan High School this afternoon, and tonight I'm going to the Araide clinic to pretend to see a doctor, and inadvertently ask about that Dr. Araide."

"It seems the next step for this Witch of a Thousand Faces should be the school. Wait, I remember Natsuko told me that Teitan High School seems to..."

Jodie pondered, frowned slightly, then took out her mobile phone and dialed a number:

"Hello Natsuko, this is Jodie. I remember when we met two days ago, you told me that Teitan High School wanted to hire an English teacher and wanted to poach you, an international student, but you refused, right?"

"Mm, it's nothing, I just suddenly wanted to experience what it's like to be a teacher."

"What? You want to accompany me tomorrow morning? That's really troubling you."

At the same time, on Haibara Ai's bed.

Akaso Kaze was lying on his back.

Haibara Ai was sitting on top of him.

"You don't need to be in such a rush," Akaso Kaze said with a heartache. "We can wait for a better serum to come out."

Haibara Ai shook her head, a determined expression on her small face.

"This is my destiny, I don't want to escape, I want to take control of my own destiny."

She tilted her head back and poured the pink serum into her small mouth.

"Huh, the color of this serum seems wrong."

Akaso Kaze asked curiously.

Haibara Ai's small face flushed slightly.

"I added an antidote serum to it; the effect is better than the one Conan drank, but... it has some side effects."

"Antidote serum? Side effects?"

Thinking of the familiar color of the serum, Akaso Kaze suddenly remembered.

It seems a pink serum was used to detoxify Kisaki Eri before, and its side effect was...

As he was thinking, Haibara Ai had already collapsed.

The drug's effect began to take hold.

The little girl bit her lip tightly, enduring the discomfort, and sweat broke out all over her body.

She didn't want to make a sound and make Akaso Kaze worry.

Seeing her in this state, Akaso Kaze felt very distressed.

He held the little girl in his arms, gently kissing Haibara Ai's small cheeks.

Soft, fragrant, and with a slightly salty taste.

Akaso Kaze silently cast a Water Column spell.

Several water columns rolled from Haibara Ai's small feet, washing away all the sweat on her body, and then disappeared into the space portal.

Then came a faint Flame Hand, combined with a Wind Column spell.

A warm current of air blew over Haibara Ai's entire body, making her hum with comfort.
