The corners of Judy's eyes were twitching, and she had the urge to move over and push Jiang Xia awake - Akai Hideo had been reliable again and again, but he was not at the scene after all. Water from afar could not relieve the fire from near, but Jiang Xia was at the scene. And with Jiang Xia's keenness, perhaps
What important clues could he discover that he couldn't observe?
However, as soon as this thought came to mind, Judy remained motionless.
Judy: "..." How could she drag a high school detective into trouble just because the enemy is scary? Wouldn't she be no different from Usa who took advantage of Suzuki Sonoko?
...As an adult, I should shoulder the heavy burdens of life and work.
Of course, if Jiang Xia wants to offer help, she will certainly not refuse, but now...
Judy stared at Jiang Xia for several seconds, but unfortunately no one responded to her expectant gaze.
Recalling the experience of this day, Judy could only sigh silently: Everyone traveled long distances all day today, and were forced to stay up all night because of the case. Jiang Xia also happened to have a cold, and her voice became hoarse when she spoke just now. She took the disease by force.
It’s already very heartless to go on a trip, so why do you still want to wake people up while they are catching up on their sleep?
Judy: "..." Forget it, forget it. Observe carefully first, and then say nothing else - she is an FBI after all, so she can't belittle herself. Maybe she can deal with Uzo alone!
Then Judy discovered that under her keen observation...Uzo really started to solve the case.
Judy: "..."
This guy is too comfortable. What does he regard today's collision with the FBI as an ordinary trip?
...That's so arrogant, Xiuyi, give him some color!
Speaking of which, why hasn’t Shuichi Akai responded to your message?
Judy quietly glanced at her phone, thinking that maybe the signal had fluctuated, so she continued to watch and wait.
…
"I have confirmed the situation at the scene, and it is indeed very consistent with what my 'mysterious friend' said."
With that said, "Uzo" glanced in Judy's direction again.
Then I got a murderous handful of crispy fries.
Jiang Xia looked back with satisfaction and said casually in a tone he didn't usually use: "Then let's start solving the case now."
Judy: "..." He spoke plainly, and it turned out that the fakes were different from serious detectives. They didn't have the vitality of high school detectives when solving crimes.
Next to him, Belmod had completely different feelings: "..." Apart from the different tone of voice, the impostor in front of him is a bit like Jiang Xia in "Uzo" state.
Is this a deliberate imitation? As expected of the shield and scapegoat trained by Uzo... Well, worthy of the substitute trained by Uzo.
Moreover, this fake Uzo's suit is very neat, without a trace of mud, and he really doesn't look like a person passing by on a rainy day. It can be seen from this that this "Xitu" has either been waiting in this villa for a long time, or he has brought
Got a change of clothes.
If it is the former, it means that Uzuo already knew that they would eventually come to this villa today, and her car was indeed poisoned by him.
And if it's the latter... This guy Uzo doesn't care about his own image, but he has such strict requirements on the image of his subordinates.
But no matter which one it is, one thing is certain: Uzo really does not treat his subordinates as human beings for the sake of his stage.
The former means arriving here before it rains, and then carefully hiding for more than 20 hours without being discovered by the homeowner.
And the latter... there was no signal here before, which meant that Xitu had to be tracked nearby at all times, and then shine when he was needed.
"In this kind of rainy forest where visibility is not high, you have to keep a short distance to avoid losing track, but I didn't find anyone following me at all."
Belmod murmured in his heart: "Is it because my vigilance is too poor, or is his tracking skills too good? - By the way, I remember that he seemed to have stayed in Myanmar for a while. In this case, the woods will be a threat to him on rainy days.
It's a familiar tracking environment."
On the one hand, he was a little afraid of this fake Uzo, but on the other hand, Belmode was also a little sympathetic.
——Standby and tracking, neither method is easy.
Belmod: "..." Uzo is really a devilish boss. In terms of working hours, Gin is not as busy as his subordinates.
However, it was just an ordinary case, why would Uzo specially send this substitute?
She glanced at the fake Uzo who was solving the case, and then glanced at Judy with her peripheral vision: Could it be that there was something inside this seemingly simple one-choice case that she didn't know about?
…
What the FBI and organization members are thinking about has nothing to do with the psychic and detective next to them.
Anyway, the road is not open yet, so I am idle. There is a shikigami hanging on someone else's lap in front of me, so of course I have to pull it down easily.
Jiang Xia pushed up her sunglasses and said calmly: "My friends came here by chance to borrow a phone and stay overnight because they encountered an unexpected incident, but what was waiting for them was a large pot of already hot curry, and
There's enough curry to feed them all."
Judy: "..." Stop looking at me! Who is your friend!
Suzuki Sonoko was very cooperative and her enthusiasm seemed unusual. She thought about it seriously and quickly realized the problem: "Mr. Akashi only has two people in his family, but he cooked so much curry... Eh? Did he already know that we were going to do it?"
Come?"
Judy: "..." You are pretending to be ignorant and reasoning, but you must have known the script for a long time. The enthusiasm in your eyes has completely exposed you. You are a cunning little girl.
He deliberately took us off the stage, causing me to let down my guard and lose a car... Damn it, my reimbursement limit.
Police officer Yamamura also suddenly realized, and asked Akashi Hiroto: "Why did you cook so much curry? Even if it is leftover from yesterday, wouldn't it be enough to just heat it for two people today? But you actually heated the guests' curry..."
Sweat broke out on Akashi's forehead: "Well, there is a tennis court near my home, and I am a tennis coach, so many students have a good relationship with me. They often stop by my house for dinner after practice, and those curries are prepared for them.
"
Yamamura scratched his head when he thought about the mud puddles on the road: "But it's raining today. Can the tennis court in the woods be used? Is anyone really going to go?"
Hiroto Akashi was about to lie and say that he met some passionate students playing basketball in the rain, but unfortunately they didn't come to his home. However, before the words came out of his mouth, he suddenly broke into a cold sweat: This excuse won't work.
——The only group of people he met when he went to the tennis court were the ones in front of him.
This excuse was sealed half a day ago. Even if I say it now, it will only be exposed ruthlessly by them and increase my suspicion!
