During the stage of the reasoning game, Jiang Xia secretly lowered her speed in solving crimes.
During a short break in the middle, when no cameras were pointed at him, Jiang Xia looked at Hijikata Kozaburo from time to time, and quickly looked away before the other party looked back. It seemed that he was worried about being found out.
After the recording ended, Jiang Xia looked at Hijikata, who came over to talk to him and left his business card, and showed a smile that seemed very guilty at first, but actually came from the bottom of his heart.
…
According to regulations, mobile phones are not allowed when recording this program.
After Jiang Xia finished recording the show and received the invitation letter from Hijikata Kozaburo to pick up ghosts, she left the studio and took her mobile phone from the staff.
When he walked out of the building, he put away his business card and turned on his phone screen.
I saw a lot of missed calls on my phone.
Mainly from Mori Ran, Mori Kogoro and Conan.
Jiang Xia: "..." Why are so many people suddenly looking for him? That digital murderer finally started causing trouble?
Jiang Xia was about to call back and ask about the situation.
However, as soon as he reached the intersection, a police car rushed towards him.
The car screeched to a halt on the side of the road. Two policemen who looked familiar, having seen them at some murder scenes before, ran out of the car and shouted into the phone, "Found it!" as they strode closer.
Jiang Xia: "...?"
...for what?
Why do you look like you are searching and arresting people?
...He was caught speeding on a motorcycle in the middle of the night?
…
Go a little further in time.
In the short interval of half a day, the Memu Police Department, Fei Yingli, and Dr. Ali were attacked one after another.
The three people were not seriously injured, but their social circles overlapped significantly. In addition, each time, the attacker dropped a paper prop at the scene.
Therefore, this is considered to be a series of related attacks.
Conan quickly found out what the three incidents had in common——
The first person to be attacked was the Megure Police Department. His full name was Megure Thirteen. After the murderer attacked him, he dropped a short dagger made of cardboard, and the King of Spades, also known as Black
In the picture of the Peach 13 playing card, the king also holds such a dagger.
The second person sent to the hospital was Fei Yingli. Her name "Fei" can be associated with the Queen in the playing cards. The poisonous food sent to her by the murderer had a paper flower attached to it. The Q in the playing card
In the picture, the queen is holding similar flowers in her hands.
The third person to be attacked was Dr. Ali, Shi Neng was broken into "Eleven". After the murderer attacked him, what he threw into the yard was the fried dough stick-shaped sword held by the Knight of Spades.
This reasoning is well-founded, so Mouri Kogoro and the police believe that the person who will be attacked next is the person with "ten" in his name, and that person must have an intersection with Moori Kogoro like the previous three people.
Based on this information, the Megure Police Department, who went into battle injured, speculated that the murderer might be Murakami's father-in-law, who was recently released from prison. Ten years ago, Murakami's father-in-law had a grudge against Kogoro Mori, who was a policeman at the time.
Mouri Kogoro suddenly became the center of the case.
"Start a search for Murakami's father immediately, find him and ask him about the situation!" After the Megure Police Department commanded his subordinates with injuries, he looked at Mouri Kogoro and urged: "Think quickly, who around you would be the same as '10'?
'Get in touch?"
"Ten, ten..." Mouri Kogoro racked his brains for a long time, and suddenly he was startled, "Miss Towako! Choose - in a nightclub he often goes to, the landlady is called 'Towako'."
Mao Lilan looked at him coldly: "...where do you often go?"
"..." Mouri Kogoro said seriously, "Now is the time to talk about business, don't talk about irrelevant things!"
After all, Mao Lilan is still a girl with a strong conscience. Being interrupted by her father, she couldn't help but be diverted and suddenly thought of another person.
She stood up nervously: "Jiang Xia's name also has '十' in it! 'Tongzhi' can be separated from the 'Zhi', not to mention 'Tong', there is '十' next to the word "木". In addition,
Turn the content in the 'Same' box sideways - it's the Arabic numeral '10'!"
Maori Kogoro:"!"
"!" Memu Police Department ordered his subordinates again, "Hurry up, find that 'Miss Towako' and Jiang Xia, and contact them as soon as possible!"
…
Ms. Towako quickly answered the phone. She is still in her store. There are many security guards here and she has not seen anyone suspicious.
No one answered Jiang Xia's phone calls.
The more Conan looked at the police dialing, the more solemn his expression became - according to Mao Lilan, Jiang Xia's name can contain three "tens", and it has both Chinese characters and Arabic numerals, which is really in line with the law of numerical murder.
, there is simply a feeling of abandoning others.
Moreover, Jiangxia is a detective, and he is in the same profession as Mouri Kogoro. Whether it is due to the natural opposition between criminals and detectives, or his hatred for Moori Kogoro, Jiangxia is in a very dangerous situation.
What's more, he didn't answer the phone.
Could it be that he has been killed...
However, looking at the bright side, Jiang Xia's skills are much more flexible than those of the Megure Police Department and Dr. Ari... Maybe Jiang Xia didn't answer the phone because when he was attacked by Murakami just now, he avoided the attack and held down the criminal with his backhand.
At this time, he was busy stepping on Murakami's father and beating him.
But no matter what, this disconnected situation is worrying.
The expression on Mu Mu's police officer's face gradually turned ugly. He transferred many people to find Jiang Xia, secretly muttering: "I hope I can make it in time."
...I always feel that if I go too late, at least one body will appear.
…
Because Jiang Xia was busy recording a variety show and had no time to look at her mobile phone, she was put into a police car from the entrance of the TV station building.
Several paparazzi standing guard in front of the TV station heard the siren of the police car and looked over excitedly. At the same time, they clicked the shutter repeatedly - a celebrity was pulled away by the police as soon as he went out. This kind of material can definitely be bought at a good price!
However, after taking the photo, the paparazzi suddenly felt that something was not right.
"The one who was pulled into the car looks a bit familiar."
"...Isn't this the famous detective?"
"Detective..."
The mood of the paparazzi changed from excitement to calmness, and finally they put down their cameras without any interest.
"..." If you have time to take a picture of a famous detective being pulled by the police to help solve a case, why not take a picture of a little sparrow on the roadside.
What a waste of film...
…
Jiang Xia never expected that after working hard for a long time to pick up the cat, he would not use it at all in the end.
——There was no need to wait for Xu Shengyi's "Nine", "Ten" had already involved him.
Although Jiangxia's current full name is "Jiangxia Tongzhi", the name "Tongzhi" is rarely used.
The pronunciation of the names of islanders usually includes phonetic pronunciation, training pronunciation, and messy pronunciation...
Unfortunately, the phonetic pronunciation of the name "Tongzhi" is similar to the language Jiang Xia is accustomed to, which makes him feel very out of touch.
So Jiang Xia used excuses such as "Just call me by my last name, it will feel like I am carrying my parents' names before going forward" as a reason, so that people around him who are more familiar with him will only call him by his last name.
As for people you don’t know well...what do you call them by their first name? Of course, just call them by their last name.
For Jiang Xia, the surname is the full name, which is very adaptable to use.
