Answers from Vermouth tend to have that affect. Ah well, if Ran hasn't connected the dots yet, she isn't about to push it.

"Oh, you probably wouldn't. It was quite a while ago." Roughly one year ago, more precisely. More importantly, Vermouth was disguised as a random serial killer at the time that Ran saved her. Even if she remembered that particular incident, it would be tricky to connect it to the same woman who threatened Ai.

"Why?" Well, in part it had to do with the conversation they had when she was Sharon. However, Vermouth can still answer somewhat honestly without bringing it up again. "Because you're so kind."
