and even promised help.
Help.
What a word, Vermouth had thought at the time and couldn't believe that the boss really wanted to help them. With this act he had drawn her completely to his side himself. She was really so stupid back then and believed that she could get out if she only wanted to.
Later.
In the future.
But she quickly realized that his help looked very different.
The boss promised that he would take care of the two children if the Miyanos wanted to find a new apartment. Everything worked out perfectly and then he faked this accident. The one who cost his parents his life.

"Nice help," muttered Sharon, looking at the small capsule in the jar. She was really lucky as there was more than one in there. And even if they were counted, she didn't care, at this point she would certainly not have been there anymore.
The blonde looked around briefly. Once on the right, then on the left, in front and behind.
Nobody looked at her, they all continued to work normally and did not pay attention to whether someone was walking around in the laboratory or not.
Then I want to, the woman said to herself and swallowed one of the capsules. For a moment she felt herself getting dizzy, but soon the feeling went away again.Everything was back to normal and she cursed softly before putting the jar back in the refrigerator.
She went back with a queasy feeling.
Nothing had happened yet.
Minutes passed.
Hours passed.
Still nothing happens.
Sharon didn't understand what that was about. The researcher had assured her that the poison would enter and that it would not be long. But she didn't feel anything.
"Damn it," Sharon hissed angrily, throwing a crystal ball on the floor. She had so many of the pieces and it wouldn't be noticed if there were one less.
But only then did the pain come. Sharon felt them, they were strong and it started that her heart pounded. It was beating faster, way too fast, and she started sweating. Her body couldn't take it anymore and she screamed. Then everything went black around her and she only woke up later in the boss's arms.

"So you're still alive," he mumbled and looked at the woman.
"What happened?", Sharon wanted to know and opened her eyes. It couldn't be, she was alive and it was terrible. The attempt to die and thus to leave the organization had failed. Now there was no turning back, but it looked like it would be dealt with soon.
"You have swallowed the raw version of the APTX, my dear and I have to say, the result is impressive," grinned the boss and looked at the woman who was lying in his arms.
"What?", She still didn't understand and looked at herself too. She was shocked.
Youthful.
She was young again, 25 years old and looked like before. It couldn't be.
"It seems that Atsushi was still working on another capsule, one that rejuvenated people," grinned the boss.

She had known then. Knew that she had become the boss' personal guinea pig. It wouldn’t be easy for her to get out of the organization, especially since she was getting younger.And she owed all of this to only two people.
Atsushi and Elena Miyano.
The two of them had been to blame for the fact that she was younger and hadn't died.
Because of that, she hated them, the whole family and their hatred also spread to Akemi and Shiho.
Her hatred of Akemi had been even greater for another reason, but when only Shiho was there, she hated her.
The girl had developed the APTX further and Sharon had known that she was certainly not the only one who had been rejuvenated. It sure happened to others too.
Sharon, what a name. She couldn't have him any more. She had to come up with something and do it as quickly as possible.
From then on she called herself Chris, Chris Vineyard, the daughter of the famous Sharon Vineyard.

"Don't worry so much, gin, it's going to go as I planned," said Chris into the phone. She had just come out of her thoughts and realized again that she was talking to Gin.
Gin.
How much she hated him and yet sometimes she couldn't leave him. He was always there when she wanted a little fun and he was branded just like her.
Back then, gin had gotten into sherry and now he still wanted her as his personal toy. He must have really learned that it wasn't always that easy with women. She had often told him herself, but he had been stubborn as always.
"The boss wants detailed reports from you," interjected Gin. In the car he frowned. He himself hadn't been sure whether it was right for Chris to do this job alone. He himself would never have given someone so much freedom for action, far too much could always go wrong for that.
"I know that. Gin, this is not my first job that I have, so stop controlling me like that," she hissed into the phone and simply hung up.Sometimes he could really upset her. Especially now that she was Chris and no longer Sharon.
He let himself be told more about Sharon and also knew that she had always done everything to the satisfaction, but it was not the case with Chris. This just showed up and became the boss's darling, just like that, without Gin knowing what she had done in the first place. It wasn't really surprising that he was still trying to control the blonde and make sure she didn't make any mistakes.
"You will see, gin, the game is not over," she breathed out the last smoke of her cigarette and prepared everything.

"What's up?" Shuichi grumbled when he heard his cell phone ring and answer it.
"Hey, it's me," said the young woman into the receiver. She was a little cranked and you could tell that she was happy to call him again.
"Jodie ..." Akai muttered and moved on. "What do you want?"
"What's wrong, Grumpy?" She asked curiously. She was sitting in the classroom. Just a few minutes ago she had ended the conversation with Ran and now it was over. She could do whatever she wanted again and today she wanted to call her colleague.
"Grumbler? Can you please leave your jokes? I don't feel like it," Shuichi said into the receiver. It sounded very serious and he meant it.
"What's wrong? Bad day?"
To be more precise, Jodie didn't know it any other way. He'd almost always had a bad day and never in a good mood. Since Akemi died, he was no longer himself, it was as if part of it had died with him.
Shuichi got tougher and he had barely had fun in life, he used to be able to smile or smile a little, but today he only did it when he was on to someone or was able to catch someone.
"You're not giving up anyway," sighed Akai. Even if he wanted to keep it quiet, it wouldn't do any good. Jodie would then call their mutual boss at the latest and know what day it was today."She has birthday today."
"Oh ... that's ... I'm sorry," Starling mumbled softly and looked at the table.
She had expected everything, but not that. She'd even thought that someone from the organization was missing out on him or that he was making a mistake.
"Let's get to the essentials. Why did you call me?", He wanted to know and waited for Jodie to tell him.
But he already suspected that it would not be so easy, since Jodie was the type of person who still wanted to make conversation.
Yes, that was Jodie. That's how he got to know her back then.

"Oh hey," she greeted him when the two found out that they were partners from today. Shuichi hadn't been thrilled because Jodie was too happy a person. She almost always smiled and was totally alive. He didn't understand how she could become an FBI agent, nor how she managed and passed this training.
"James ... I need to talk to you", Shuichi said and pulled his boss aside. "You can't be serious. I can't work with her," Shu interjected. He hadn't been enthusiastic.
As he talked to James, he felt Jodie look at him. Her eyes were literally staring at him and he didn't like it.
"Yes, it is. You will be working on the case together in Japan," James nodded. It had been deadly serious to him and he did not tolerate it being contradicted here. He had made his decision and everyone involved had to live with it.
"Great," sighed Shu and looked back at the blonde.
He still couldn't believe it and wanted it to be undone. It was only in time that he found out what had happened to Jodie.

"Papa ...", little Jodie mumbled. She was just 7 years old when she looked through the door and checked on her father.
But besides her father, she saw another woman. It was Sharon and she was wearing overalls and her hair up.She was just taking the glasses from Jodie's father, an FBI agent.
"Who are you?" She wanted to know from the older woman.
"I am not allowed to tell you my name", Sharon now went to the girl. She had hidden her gun behind her back and inside she didn't want the little girl to see that her father was no longer alive. "A secret makes a woman a woman", Vermouth said and this led Jodie to remember this sentence over and over again. She didn't want to move him, not the sentence that her father's murderess said.
"Daddy's glasses," Jodie muttered when she saw them in Sharon's hand.
"Oh .. I'm sorry, here you have it again," said the blonde and handed it to her.
The girl became happier and the killer knew that she had nothing to fear now.
"What about papa? Is he sleeping?", She asked and looked into the room. Then she got sad. "He promised to read to me before I went to sleep."
"Can you just stay by his side until he wakes up?" Suggested Vermouth and a smile fell on Jodie's lips as she nodded.
After that, Vermouth set the whole house on fire and disappeared. From the reports she found out that so far only one body had been found in the rubble and she suspected that little Jodie was still alive. But she hadn't known what had happened then.
By chance, her father's favorite juice had been empty, so the little girl went out again in the evening. When she returned, the whole house was on fire and for her own safety, an FBI agent took her into the witness protection
