Jiang Xia shook his head, feeling that such a journey would be monotonous.
He found the travel agency's phone number from Mao Lilan's ticket and took out his mobile phone: "I'll book another set of tickets."
Judging from the poster at the lottery counter, this itinerary is not cheap.
But now, it is difficult for Jiang Xia to label himself as "lack of money": Kinoshita Yoko gives him hook-up programs from time to time, more and more rich ladies come to the office to look for cats, and each time they complete an "assassination" mission
They all have hefty bonuses - Ginjiu will deduct the bonuses of those who fail to complete tasks on time and give them to him. Jiang Xia is equivalent to one person receiving several salaries.
In addition, every time Toru Amuro asked him to work part-time, he would ask his boss to settle the salary on the same day. So Jiang Xia often worked part-time for one day and got two to three months' money. If he returned the money, Toru Amuro would take advantage of him. "Don't take such a small amount."
He stared back with eyes like "Money is bothering me"; even Dr. Ali occasionally stuffed "Thank you money for the invention of explosive first aid" into his mailbox...
In short, ever since Jiang Xia exuded the aura of "I want to make money", it seems that everyone has been giving him money in different ways. After so many days, Jiang Xia has collected no less than 700 million yen from the Maple Leaf Gold Coin Case.
, and it has become more.
However, having money does not mean that you can successfully buy tickets.
——The festival on Mermaid Island is quite famous, and the itinerary that Mao Lilan drew was sold out as early as last month.
Jiang Xia sighed and hung up the phone.
Suzuki Sonoko keenly discovered that Jiang Xia's mood level had dropped.
She then sneaked closer and planned to propose taking her own boat again - if Jiang Xia was afraid that she would spend money, then she could temporarily buy a civilian-level boat...
But at this time, she noticed that Jiang Xia turned to look at the lottery table.
After watching for a while, an illusory light bulb of inspiration seemed to appear above Jiang Xia's head.
He walked towards the prize cabinet.
…
The person at the counter was a middle-aged aunt. She didn't care that Jiang Xia, the "temporary security guard," was fishing during working hours and looked at him with a smile.
Jiang Xia looked at the prize bulletin board and found that the highest prize was the special prize, while the first prize drawn by Mao Lilan actually had two places.
Jiang Xia asked: "Is the remaining first prize still there?"
"Yes." The waiter was a little surprised. She instantly understood Jiang Xia's intention and whispered to dissuade her, "The probability of winning is really very low, and we have set up several lottery booths. The other first prize may not be in this prize box. It may be
I won’t be able to get it even if I have time... It’s better to book other tickets than to draw a lottery.”
"It doesn't matter, I'll give it a try." Jiang Xia bought two cups, paid the bill, and got one lucky draw number.
Suzuki Sonoko originally wanted to dissuade him.
But seeing Jiang Xia working hard to travel on the same boat as her (them), Suzuki Sonoko held her chin in her hands, eyes full of sweet hearts, and forgot what she wanted to say for a moment.
After two or three seconds, Suzuki Sonoko calmed down.
She turned around, secretly took out her cell phone, and wanted to find someone to secretly contact the travel agency and pay them to add a seat on the ship. If that didn't work, she might as well find a bigger ship - in that case, the number of seats would definitely increase accordingly.
However, before she could finish editing the text message, she suddenly heard the surprised voice of the waiter coming from behind her.
"Huh?" Suzuki Sonoko turned around and saw that Jiang Xia had finished drawing the prizes.
The waiter looked at the lottery ticket in Jiang Xia's hand in shock. She had seen the same thing in Mao Lilan's hand just now: "One, first prize!"
Suzuki Sonoko: "..."
Conan: "..."
...Is there really such a person in the world who gets whatever he wants?
Mao Lilan was not too surprised. She looked like she was used to it. She looked closely at the ticket the waiter had just printed and said in surprise: "The seats are next to each other!"
Jiang Xia happily collected the tickets and picked up the cup, preparing to give it to his temporary colleagues later.
…
After deciding on the trip to Mermaid Island, Jiang Xia continued to work, while Mao Lilan and Suzuki Sonoko were preparing to go home.
Conan stayed alone, waiting to meet the members of the Young Detective Team.
——Today, there will be a real-life performance of "Masked Superman" in the Rice Krispies Department Store. The Young Detective Team insisted on dragging him to watch it together. Conan couldn't resist the naughty kids, so he had no choice but to come.
…
The shifts in Jiangxia are morning and evening shifts.
When he came over in the evening, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the young detective team.
Jiang Xia was startled.
After a while, he secretly left a ghost next to the child - in the same building. Even if the ghost wandered with the young detective team, it would not stray too far from Jiang Xia, and it would not consume much murderous energy.
Jiang Xia: "..." I did this not entirely to benefit from the case, but mainly to pay attention to the safety of the children.
…
However, until the department store was about to close, there was no movement from the Young Detective Team.
On Jiangxia's side, on the other hand, the atmosphere in the security room was a bit strange.
…
Jiang Xia was sitting in the security room on the second floor, looking at the smiling elevator lady in front of her, and then at the hot drink she handed her.
The beautiful sister in front of me named "Mio Nakamura" is in her twenties, and it is said that she has just taken office. She has a generous and cheerful personality, and often brings something to share with her colleagues, so today, she distributed refreshing drinks to the security guards, and
Not obtrusive.
but……
Jiang Xia glanced at the ghost next to him.
Xiaobai whispered to him: Just now, Mio Nakamura secretly slipped an unknown drug into the drink.
…
After Nakamura Mio handed out drinks to Jiang Xia, she walked aside and continued to give them to others.
When no one was paying attention to her, Jiang Xia picked up the tea cup and poured it under the table.
As the drink fell, a clay puppet in the shape of a rough pufferfish appeared at his feet.
The "pufferfish" swallowed all the drink into its stomach, shut up and sealed it, then landed silently under Jiang Xia's control, rolled the drink with it to a dead corner deep under the table, and gradually dissipated.
