Hey everyone! Jail Rose here! So, I've been reading the reviews lately and I would like to say THANK YOU VERY MUCH for your appreciation and support! You guys inspire me to write more!
My brain has been really busy, lately. First it wanted me to post a new chapter of "Wait For Me", which is in a BIG standby for a couple days. I have to finish some stories first before switching to the next one.
Anyways, enough of talk! Here's your chapter everybody!
"Gin."
The dark room, with a few lights on, stayed like that, giving only a little light for the man who said the code name. Just a few blocks away from the mysterious man is another man with long, silver hair and his signature killer eyes. His clothing consisted of a black fedora with a white hat band, along with a black, knee length, notched lapel trench coat, and underneath this is a white, loose turtleneck. Black trousers and black dress shoes matched his appearance. "Ano Kata. You called." the man, Gin, began, his eyes focusing on his boss.
Ano Kata huffed. "Have you found a clue as to where Shinichi Kudo is?" the unknown man asked, his voice firm. Gin went silent for a moment.
A moment of silence covered the room. Gin then giggled evilly, breaking the quiet aura between their conversation with his boss. "I may have found no trace as to where that brat is..." he began to reply his boss' question. "But I bumped into a suspicious fellow."
"And that fellow will help us in our quest... maybe."
I guess he never noticed, huh... Heiji thought, his mind trapped inside the cage of the thousand thoughts that he had already. That man... I find him so eerie just like what Shinichi said...
Heiji continued to trod his way home when he suddenly bumped into someone. "Ohh!" the person he bumped on exclaimed. Heiji's eyes widened. Oh hell no... I bumped into someone again! he thought. He then glanced at the person he bumped on carefully, trying not to get the whole image.
"Hey, you! Say sorry, asshat! You just bumped into someone and you didn't even feel the need to say a simple sorry, you douche!"
Wait, Sonoko!? he thought again. What the hell is wrong with my mind?! It's just Sonoko!
Heiji turned around, facing the familiar friend. "Sorry, you guys. I'm trapped in a really deep thought today, and I didn't see Ran," he apologized. Sonoko looked at Heiji angrily. "If it isn't Mr. Westie Boy." she muttered.
Heiji frowned. "What? I just bumped on you guys, didn't I?"
"Well, you let Ran trip!"
"And I sure as hell said sorry, didn't I?"
"Sorry won't change anything!"
"Oh really? You're the one who told me to say sorry."
"Guys, stop it. Heiji just bumped on me! And Sonoko, there wasn't any scratches on me," Ran stopped the two from continuing their vicious argument. Sonoko only glared at Heiji, the western detective glaring back at her.
"Excuse me, do you mind if I ask you a question?"
A female voice suddenly rang in the ears of the three teenagers. "Hmm?" the three turned to the person with a questioning look.
The woman had a black dress with a simple strap neck collar. Her black floppy hat covered her eyes, giving the fact that her eyes are not seen. Her butt-length blonde hair flew slowly as she walked. Her black sandals stood as to where her feet wanted her to stand. "I'm sure three teenagers can answer just one simple question that my mouth will put out." she continued.
"Oh, uh, yes, what is it?" Ran asked the woman.
The woman chuckled as if as almost darkly. "Do you know who Shinichi Kudo is?" she asked her question, that one question that wanted to get out of her mouth.
"Y-Yes ma'am! He's actually our friend!" Sonoko answered. I hope you don't regret saying that, you dumb blonde, Heiji thought, his face with a look as if he was disappointed at Sonoko, again.
He then glanced at the woman that he found so... suspicious.
Heiji remembered the time that he bumped on Gin, and then he met another - he thinks - member of the BO. Because why would the woman not be a BO member? That dark chuckle she gave is a clue. And her appearance... but he still knows that not all people wearing black can be a BO member. But still...
And why is she finding Shinichi Kudo? Is there a case going on at the residence?
Heiji went towards the lady. "Excuse me, ma'am, but why are you trying to find Shinichi Kudo?" Heiji asked her. The woman turned to his direction. "Well, no business, to be honest. I just wanted to meet him." she replied.
As I was thinking, he thought.
"Okay ma'am! We've got to be going now, since time is running! Come on, Ran, Heiji, let's go!" Sonoko interrupted the moment and grabbed the two of them to walk with her. Both of them were shocked at Sonoko's motion.
While Heiji was grabbed by Sonoko, he looked back at the lady.
This time, that said lady was looking at him dead in the eye, an evil grin plastered on her face. This was enough reason for Heiji's eyes to widen. No way, she is what I think she is... Heiji thought while looking at the woman's sinister twisted grin.
Heiji shook his head and faced in front, only to find him face to face with a lamp pole, almost bumping his face at it. Glad Sonoko was in good timing; he avoided the pole right away. He heaved a sigh of relief.
Damn, these things are getting real weird this time...
*ring* *ring* *ring*
The phone buzzed inside Vermouth's pocket bag. Vermouth knew that Gin would be contacting her anytime soon. Her hand went inside her bag after she opened it, fishing around for her cellphone. She then picked up said cellphone and checked the screen. Call from Gin. She then replied with her scrolling her thumb towards the green phone button. When she was done with it, she placed the phone next to her ear, her hand assisting.
"Vermouth? Vermouth, are you there?" the man on the other line said. She then realized that the man on the other line wasn't Gin, it was Vodka instead.
"Yeah, I'm here. What the news there?" she replied, a whispery tone in her voice.
"Still no trace of the brat, lately. How're you doing?"
"You'll be happy when you'll know about mine."
"Yeah? What happened?"
"Well, there's someone I've bumped into. I mean, not actually just one person. There were three teenagers. Two girls and one boy. I was glad the two girls were actually honest, but the boy finds me suspicious."
"What's his facial appearance?"
"He has blue eyes and dark skin. He wears a cap on his head."
"Heh, just like who I encountered."
"Gin? I didn't know you were there."
"Don't you remember? Vodka and I are partners."
"Yeah, I know. But about the guy that you bumped on."
"Oh, yes. He finds me suspicious just like you're encounter with him."
"Come to think of it, one of the girls seemed like I already met her. With the brat, of course."
"Who?"
"The black haired girl with the horn. I was pretty sure I already met her."
"Do you know what her name is?"
"No. But I do know one thing."
"And that is?"
"I call her..."
"What?"
"...I call her Angel, for some reason."
