At this moment, Chen Anxia spoke up, "It seems that my reasoning was correct."
As he spoke, Chen Anxia looked at Rose and continued, "Your reaction shows that you already knew about this."
"And so you began to plan to kill Sith Flockhart, who had deceived your feelings."
"If my reasoning is correct, you should still be carrying a weapon powerful enough to kill Sith Flockhart."
Upon hearing Chen Anxia's words, everyone present was shaken and their faces showed shock.
None of them expected that Rose's real plan was to kill someone.
After learning about it, they thought of the scum of the Sith and suddenly understood Rose a little better.
Sith, on the other hand, looked extremely frightened, filled with trepidation and unease as he asked Rose, "Rose, is what he said true? Do you really want to kill me?"
Rose didn't answer Sith's question. Instead, she looked at Chen Anxia and said with a sense of relief and liberation, "It seems that you are the angel sent by God to stop me."
Rose's words undoubtedly confirmed the accuracy of Chen Anxia's reasoning.
However, before anyone could react, Rose continued, "However, while your reasoning is mostly correct, there is one mistake."
Chen Anxia was taken aback upon hearing this, then frowned slightly, seemingly not understanding where her reasoning was wrong.
Seeing this, Rose pulled out a concealed pistol from her body and said, "I don't love Sith, so whether he is loyal in love or not is irrelevant to me."
"What I love is the angel he plays."
"This love has reached a point of madness, and I cannot accept other men playing the role of an angel."
"He is also very clear about this."
"The reason I agreed to maintain an improper relationship with him was because he promised to play my angel for life."
"But he gave up the role of the angel because he wanted to act in a movie, which ruined my love and our promise."
"That's why I wanted to kill him."
As Rose spoke, everyone saw the pistol she pulled out, and their expressions changed drastically.
Shinichi Kudo immediately shielded Ran behind him, shouting, "Ran, it's dangerous! Stay behind me and don't run around!"
Watson also stood in front of Chen Anxia immediately, looking at Rose with a solemn expression.
Watson knew he couldn't just sit and wait to die, so he kept looking for an opening in Rose's hand, intending to deliver a swift and decisive blow and snatch the pistol from her.
The others also reacted instinctively, some screaming, some collapsing to the ground...
Rose smiled dismissively, tossed aside her pistol, and looked at Chen Anxia, saying, "I've abandoned my plan because I've met a true angel..."
The Golden Apple incident came to an end there, and the police arrived and took Rosie away for investigation.
Naturally, the Golden Apple show cannot be staged tonight.
And Chen Anxia's name spread for the first time in the bustling metropolis of New York.
After giving their statements at the New York Police Department, Chen Anxia and Hua Sheng left the department amidst the astonished gazes of numerous officers.
Among them, the police officer in charge of taking the statements looked at his notes, at the names of Chen Anxia and Hua Sheng, and murmured, "Chen Anxia and Hua Sheng, is this a coincidence?"
"Or is he a modern-day Sherlock Holmes...?"
On the taxi ride back to his apartment, Watson received a phone call.
After hanging up the phone, Watson smiled happily and said, "Anxia, Professor Moriya Teiji just called personally to say that our villa has been designed."
Upon hearing the news, Chen Anxia couldn't help but smile and say, "This is truly good news."
Teiji Moriya is a professor in the Department of Architecture at Toto University and a renowned architect in Japan. Many of his outstanding architectural works are the result of his work, such as the Beika City Hall, Beika Cinema, and the Sumida Canal Bridge.
Because of Teiji Moriya's fame, his residential designs have become a symbol of his reputation and prestige in Japan.
Normally, it would be almost impossible for a celebrity like Chen Anxia to have Moriya Teiji personally design her residence; it would mostly be done by his disciples.
But Chen Anxia was able to get Moriya Teiji to personally take action because...

Chapter 398 Anxia's Sorrow, The Name of Vermouth! (Please Subscribe!)
Late at night, Chen Anxia, who was about to go to sleep, received an unexpected phone call.
The call came from Chen Anxia's close friend, Sharon Vineyard, a superstar from the United States.
Chen Anxia didn't know why Sharon would call her at this time, but she answered the phone immediately.
After answering the phone, before Chen Anxia could even speak, Sharon said in a joyful voice, "Anxia, I want to tell you something. Just now, I finally found my angel."
Before Chen Anxia could react, Sharon continued, "It's late, I won't disturb your rest any longer, goodnight."
Then, to Chen Anxia's somewhat astonishment, Sharon hung up the phone.
After hanging up the phone, Sharon, standing by the window, couldn't help but look at the New York night view under the continuous rain curtain outside, and a genuine and charming smile appeared on her face.
Sharon murmured softly, "Not just an angel, but also the silver bullet I've been searching for."
"I just don't know who will be the real silver bullet to destroy the organization..."
"Is it you, or that boy named Shinichi Kudo...?"
At the same time, Chen Anxia frowned slightly as she looked at the phone that had been hung up.
Although Chen Anxia didn't know what had happened, this incident was enough to change Sharon's preconceived notions, so it must have been a very impactful event for Sharon.
So what could this be?
With so little known data, even Chen Anxia couldn't come up with any clues.
Chen Anxia shook her head gently, deciding to stop thinking about it and ask Sharon herself when she had the chance.
Immediately, Chen Anxia looked out the window at the somewhat melancholic New York City shrouded in night and rain, murmuring, "I wonder if the police have arrested that serial killer yet..."
Chen Anxia has no idea that this phone call will be the last one between him and Sharon.
When Chen Anxia saw Sharon again, she was already forever captured in a black and white photograph.
That day, New York was shrouded in continuous rain, just like today, as if even the heavens were saddened by Sharon's departure.
In the mourning hall, Chen Anxia looked at Sharon's black and white photograph placed among a cluster of white flowers. Looking at Sharon's face, which revealed a genuine smile, she couldn't help but feel waves of sadness.
Chen Anxia originally thought that she would only be a passerby in one world after another, and would not feel any reluctance or sadness towards any world.
But now Chen Anxia realizes she was wrong.
Although I am just a passerby in one world after another, I have participated in each world, left my mark in each world, and played a real role in each world.
Under such circumstances, Chen Anxia naturally felt reluctant and saddened by the departure of a friend with whom she had shared a deep connection.
Just as Chen Anxia was looking at Sharon's photo, lost in sadness, a young female voice suddenly came from behind her, saying, "If my mother knew you were here, she would be very happy."
"She once told me that the luckiest thing for her was to have made a friend like you, despite the age difference, during her short life journey."
Upon hearing this, Chen Anxia slowly turned around to look at the person who spoke.
Although Chen Anxia had never met the person who spoke, he knew her identity and appearance through his interactions with Sharon.
She was none other than Sharon Vineyard's only daughter, Chris Vineyard.
However, although Chris is Sharon's daughter, she does not make Sharon proud, but rather gives Sharon a lot of headaches.
The comments Chen Anxia heard from Sharon about Chris were all rather negative.
This was also the first time Chen Anxia and Chris met.
In Chen Anxia's eyes, Chris was simply a younger version of Sharon—beautiful, gentle, and generous, exuding a feminine charm that attracted men like a poison.
Of course, there is another big difference between Chris and Sharon, and that is the color of their pupils.
Chris's pupils are aquamarine green, while Sharon's pupils are blue.
Chen Anxia noticed this the moment he first saw Chris.
For some reason, Chen Anxia felt a sense of familiarity when she first saw Chris, as if Sharon was standing in front of her.
Chen Anxia didn't think much of it, assuming it was just the similarity and connection between mother and daughter at play.
At this moment, Chen Anxia was looking at Chris with his deep eyes and said, "Chris, I want you to know that no matter what your mother's attitude is in front of you, her love for you is beyond doubt."
"As Sharon's close friend despite the age gap, I am well aware of this."
Chris was taken aback by what she heard, and didn't quite understand why Chen Anxia would suddenly say these things.
Without gazing at the incredibly beautiful Chris, Chen Anxia turned her attention back to Sharon's black-and-white photograph, her eyes filled with undisguised sorrow. She continued, "I see not a trace of sadness in your eyes."
"It's as if the person who left this time wasn't your mother."
“I even saw a sense of joy in your eyes, as if you were breaking free from your constraints.”
"This is not how children should react when a loved one dies."
"I think there must be some misunderstanding between you and Sharon."
"So, I want to explain on Sharon's behalf, so that she doesn't leave with the misunderstanding you had about her."
Chris never expected Chen Anxia to say that, and she certainly didn't expect Chen Anxia to be so perceptive in understanding her expression.
But Chris knew that Chen Anxia truly considered Sharon a friend when he said those words; the sadness hidden in his words was impossible to conceal.
After regaining her senses, she saw that Chris's expression towards Chen Anxia softened, even containing a hint of indescribable tenderness.
All of this shows that Chris's heart is fluttering because of Chen Anxia.
Chris tried her best to hide her emotions, speaking in a softer tone, "Ah, I understand, thank you, Anxia..."
Upon hearing Chris's words, Chen Anxia's body suddenly trembled slightly.
When Chris uttered the name 'Anxia,' Chen Anxia truly felt as if Sharon was speaking—the tone, the familiarity...
Before Chen Anxia could react, Chris turned and left, saying, "Go ahead, I need to attend to other guests..."
Chen Anxia watched Chris's departing figure, her brows furrowed slightly, lost in thought.
As Chris turned to leave, she thought to herself, 'Ansha, you are as captivating as ever, yet also dangerous...'
I'm afraid that if I stay with you any longer, I'll fall hopelessly in love with you, and I'm even more afraid that your deep eyes will see right through me...
'So, it's time for Sharon Vineyard to disappear...'
