Jiang Xia: "..." Unlike the lively three-person alliance on the other side, the introverted Curacao lady always seems to like to appear alone.
This resulted in the fact that although her aloe murderous aura was stable, it rarely grew explosively, and there were not many tools that could scare her into increasing production.
"It's not good to be too withdrawn." Jiang Xia was a little worried about her colleague's mental health. "We have to find a way to find some friends for her."
While thinking about it, Jiang Xia returned to the crowd.
For a psychic, this family doesn't have much to offer. And Curacao, which is in a quiet state in the middle of the night, has recently tended to move closer to vodka - without any murderous intent, and its aloe vera production has dropped sharply.
After hesitating for a moment, the efficiency-seeking detective finally decided not to delay any longer: if we resolve this matter tonight, we can make it to the hospital to visit Vodka tomorrow, which is better than staying here all the time.
Thinking like this, Jiang Xia said to the Ogatas who were arguing again: "I probably know what's going on with the figure tonight."
"What else could it be? It's just a thief or a ghost." Mr. Ogata sighed, "That guy must have run away... Fortunately, I don't have anything valuable at home."
Jiang Xia shook his head: "Not only did he not run far away, but he was very close - the initiator of tonight's 'haunting' is among you."
"What did you say?!" The four people in the Ogata family were shocked at the same time.
Jiang Xia looked at them: "The key to solving these problems is the old music box - the gift that Mr. Qiu Wu gave to Miss Haruna last Christmas."
"Last Christmas? It was the Christmas of the year before last, right." Brother Ogata corrected him, "My grandfather passed away on December 6 last year - last Christmas, he himself turned into a box, how could he go and deliver it?
Give someone else a box.”
Yuki Haruna said firmly: "But I received it last Christmas, and I still have the receipt for sending it to an antique store for inspection!"
"You little girl must have been confused by your sleep." Mrs. Ogata also said, "Not to mention Christmas, my father-in-law has been bedridden since last spring. It is difficult for him to even turn over. Where can I give you the strength?
Send things."
Yuki Haruna: "But..."
The two parties were at a stalemate, and the impartial detective joined the conversation: "No need to argue, everything you said is true. So the situation is actually obvious - after the old 'Mr. Qiu Wu' became bedridden, there was another
A 'Mr. Qiu Wu' took over the bb machine and became Miss Haruna's second electronic pen pal.
"After Mr. Qiu Wu passed away, it was also the second 'Mr. Qiu Wu' who agreed to Miss Haruna's appointment and placed the music box at her feet."
As he said that, he suddenly looked at brother Ogata: "That's it."
Ogata’s younger brother: “!”
Several others didn't believe it at first, but seeing his shocked look, they immediately understood that what the detective said was true.
"What's going on?" Ogata's parents and Ogata's brother immediately gathered around, "Why haven't we heard about such a big thing?!"
Seeing that he couldn't hide it anymore, Ogata's brother sighed helplessly: "Because grandpa asked me to hide this matter - in fact, not long after he was hospitalized, when I visited him, he handed over the BB machine
Got me.
"He said that Haruna, who was opposite the BB machine, was as lonely as grandma when she was alive, which made him uneasy. So he asked me to continue as 'Mr. Qiu Wu' to continue this decompression chat."
Yuki Haruna was stunned for several seconds, and finally straightened out the situation: "That is to say...since last spring, the person opposite the BB machine has been you?!"...How do you, a young man, manage to speak?
So much like an old man!
Brother Ogata failed to hear her shock and nodded honestly: "Grandpa told me a lot about you, so I was able to successfully pick up your chat.
"Last Christmas, I saw you asking me to meet on the BB camera. I hesitated for a long time and finally decided to go to the appointment and tell you the whole truth.
"But when I got to the appointment place and saw your face full of expectation, I couldn't bear to tell the truth that 'Mr. Qiuwu' had passed away. So in the end, I just quietly put the music box and 'Mr. Qiuwu's BB player
'Put it at your feet as a farewell."
Recalling this, Ogata's younger brother blushed and changed the topic hastily.
He looked at Jiang Xia: "But how do you know that the 'Mr. Qiu Wu' who met Miss Haruna is me? - I have obviously pretended not to know her at all."
Curacao couldn't bear to look away and looked away: "..." Oh, naive, do you think your jerky acting skills can hide from an unscrupulous director? In front of him, even some movie queens have nowhere to hide.
...For example, Belmod was a little unlucky some time ago.
Having said that, with such a big Belmode in front of him, why didn't Uzo play? If that woman could better draw Uzo's attention away, she wouldn't have to be forced to work overtime next to the police like today...
Just as he was thinking about it, a set of eyes suddenly fell over him.
Curacao: "!"
She pushed up the plain glasses on the bridge of her nose and shrank away from Jiang Xia as if nothing had happened.
…
The sudden increase in aloe vera production was just a small episode. Next to it, the dedicated detective seemed to be still concentrating on continuing his reasoning.
Jiang Xia looked at Ogata's brother who was puzzled: "Although you seem to be acting seriously, unfortunately, it was already exposed in the first scene - do you still remember what you said when welcoming guests at the entrance?"
"...What?" Brother Ogata tried hard to remember, and finally remembered his actions at that time: He was worried that his mother, who was the first to greet him, would make things difficult for Miss Haruna, so he stepped forward to relax the atmosphere... What could this reveal? This can only
It means that he loves peace, hospitality and friendliness.
Jiang Xia waited for a few seconds and saw that the person had no intention of remembering, so he had to say to himself: "You said at that time, 'It's rare that the legendary Miss Haruna comes to visit. Of course, the host must show the attitude he should have to treat guests.
'——When you said this, there were three young women of about the same age at the door, but you went straight to Miss Haruna."
Brother Ogata: "..." It seems true when you say that.
"Wait a minute." Brother Ogata next to him suddenly realized something. He glared at his brother, "We have been chatting in private for more than a year. Your kid fell in love with her because of this, right? No wonder you do this.
You hit me with the guqin in the dark, do you think I treated her badly just now, so you are taking revenge on her?"
"I didn't hit you!" Ogata's younger brother argued, "You've always been as ugly as ever since you were a child - I wanted to hit you earlier, why did you wait until today!"
