Chapter 250 I heard that each of your detectives has a gun?
Hijikata Kozaburo specially handed out business cards in the elevator to attract the attention of the three people and prevent them from staring at the electronic screen and discover the traces he painted on it.
By the time the earthwork was finished, the elevator had already reached the sixth floor.
Of course, in the eyes of Mao Lilan and Conan, this is now the fifth floor.
Hijikata Kozaburo looked at Jiang Xia, who looked calm and seemed to know nothing about his tricks, and was extremely pleased.
He walked to the door of his house and pressed the doorbell. His beautiful wife quickly greeted him.
The two acted out a harmonious drama in front of the guests. Afterwards, Mrs. Hijikata left with a smile on her face.
Hijikata Kozaburo asked Jiangxia and the others to wait in the living room.
There were no slippers in the house, only a doormat. Mao Lilan looked at Hijikata Kozaburo in confusion, and the owner of the house waved his hand: "This is the place where I often play with my friends. I often do action scenes. If I wear slippers or go barefoot,
, many movements can easily cause injury, you just wipe it off and come straight in."
This is a lie.
Mainly because Hijikata Kozaburo was thinking that later, these people would have to accompany him in the drama of "saving his wife". If they were allowed to leave the shoes, he would have to do too much preparation for killing in the tight time.
too much.
After settling the guests, Kozaburo Hijikata left the living room on the pretext of making tea for a few people.
Mao Lilan looked at the clean and tidy house, sitting in a reserved posture. But when she thought that this was a celebrity's home, she couldn't help but look around with bright eyes.
Jiang Xia sat for a while and saw that Hijikata Kozaburo still hadn't come back, so he took out his business card holder and sorted the business cards in it calmly.
He found this all from the drawer of the detective agency.
Tohru Amuro spends most of his time working around. Occasionally, he will put on the disguise of "Famous Detective Boss" and contact some customers with a purpose.
During this period, Toru Amuro will meet many people and naturally receive many business cards.
Business cards, which are equivalent to the other person's face, cannot be thrown away directly, so after Toru Amuro receives the business cards, he usually puts them in his bag first, and when he has accumulated a lot, he throws them all into the drawer of the detective agency.
Anyway, the boss doesn't seem to have any use for these things. After Jiang Xia asked him, he would regularly put all the business cards in the drawer into his own business card holder.
When you have some free time, use your spare time to filter, pick out business cards with familiar names, and keep them alone.
It feels like going back to your hometown and searching for treasures in an old house full of clutter.
Make rational use of every inch of resources around you.
Through this method, Jiang Xia really succeeded in picking up two or three cases.
And there is no need to worry that this will arouse Tohru Amuro's suspicion. Although this police undercover agent has a good memory, he is definitely not like some police officers who can never forget any trivial matter. What's more, it is really normal for a detective to encounter a murder case.
However, normal people would never even think about it.
Amidst the scraping sound of paper, Mao Lilan and Conan looked at the furnishings in the room, then silently turned their heads and looked at Jiang Xia, who was concentrating on counting business cards.
The two high school students were quite emotional. The process of sorting out their connections starts with taking business cards seriously. They didn't expect that someone like Jiang Xia, who didn't seem to be keen on socializing, would have to work hard on this kind of thing. Is this the world of social people...
Time flies by while counting business cards.
About half an hour later, Kozaburo Hijikata carried a tray, opened the door with his elbow, and walked into the living room.
"I've been waiting for a long time." He put the teapot and teacups in the tray on the table, and poured tea for several people in a strange way, while apologizing, "My wife used to do these things, and it took me a long time to find the teapot and tea leaves...
Alas, housework looks simple, but when you do it you realize that it is not so."
Jiang Xia glanced at his legs, said nothing, and took the teacup.
Hijikata Kozaburo waited for a few seconds, and when he saw that Jiang Xia refused to answer, his movements couldn't help but become a little stiff.
Fortunately, the other person heard the gist of his words.
Mao Lilan felt that the air was too quiet, so she randomly looked for topics to lighten the atmosphere: "Is your wife out?"
"Yes." Hijikata Kozaburo looked at her with relief, he was such a good child, "She went to a friend's house."
Crazy hint that his wife is now at Okita's house, the neighbor who he met in the elevator just now, who had an affair with him.
Mao Lilan didn't immediately understand the meaning of "friend" and just thought it was an ordinary friend.
After drinking tea, Hijikata Kozaburo put down his tea cup, counted the time, and picked up a fake gun from the top of the TV.
The excuse he invited Jiang Xia over this time was that he was about to take on a detective drama and wanted to learn Jiang Xia's skills in playing a good detective.
Hijikata Kozaburo handed the fake gun to Jiang Xia:
"This time I want to play a famous detective who is good at disguise. He is a guy who likes playing with guns, but I have never been exposed to these before... This is an imitation gun that I bought at a big price. I want to buy it.
You gave me a lot of advice."
Jiang Xia stared at the gun quietly: "..."
Although he can use it, it still reminds him of some unpleasant experiences. Speaking of which, when will the organization owe him the gun...
Mao Lilan stared at the gun in a daze: Jiang Xia is a serious detective, how could he come into contact with such a thing? How dangerous it is... Speaking of which, is the actor's chuunibyou a bit serious? These days, it's really true.
Some people thought that a detective would carry a gun with him.
She found Jiang Xia's eyes looking at the gun a little strange, and thought Jiang Xia had thought of the same thing as her, but didn't know how to speak to customers.
So he took the initiative to help rescue the enemy: "Well, in fact, very few detectives have guns nowadays..."
Hijikata Kozaburo was startled: "That's right. But in the script I received, the first scene is a confrontation with a gangster with a gun by this river."
When he mentioned "this river", he raised his finger and pointed at the large floor-to-ceiling windows and glass doors behind him. It led to the balcony.
Jiang Xia seemed to be somewhat interested in this topic. He asked: "The filming location is the river here?"
Hijikata Kozaburo nodded, pushed open the glass door, and made a gesture to invite them to the balcony.
…
The balcony is open and directly connected to the outside world. The wind with the smell of the river blows in, and the view is wide.
After a group of people came to the balcony, Kozaburo Hijikata pointed to the river bank below: "Look, it's right there."
This apartment is built next to the river, and the river below is very wide.
Looking across the river, plus the opposite bank, from the balcony here, the house has become a small dot like a model.
And of course it's the same when viewed from the other side.
This greatly facilitates Hijikata Kozaburo's ongoing murder plan.
——Just now, while Jiang Xia and the others were waiting in the living room, Hijikata Kozaburo killed his wife next door, and then fixed the body in front of the balcony door next door.
Now, they are watching the scenery on the balcony, with the corpse beside them silently.
Next, as soon as the timer is activated, the body will fall backwards and fall on the balcony.
In Hijikata Kozaburo's script, the place where the body is about to be dumped is the sixth floor, which is his own property. However, after his careful preparation, Jiang Xia and others must have thought that the body was dumped from Okita's house.
And because the corpse falling to the ground is a dynamic process, according to normal thinking, Mrs. Hijikata was pushed out of the balcony by the assailant, who was still in the room at this time.
