Fortunately, the person who intercepted the beard was not very experienced. It didn't take long for Vodka to successfully capture the vehicle driven by that person from the nearby surveillance camera.
Following the license plate, he found the identity of the thief.
"Kanazawa Ryuichiro?"
Vodka looked at the relevant information about this person: "Why do I think he looks familiar...wait, isn't this the internationally famous architect? Why is he stealing other people's computers?"
Calvados thought of the late reporter’s virtue: “Ed McCann must have had the scandal related to him, so as soon as he learned of the reporter’s death, this guy Kanazawa Ryuichiro immediately took advantage of it.
The void has entered."
Vodka's eyes twitched slightly: "That bastard reporter is too dedicated, right? He works wherever he goes?"
Calvados thought of his nearly failed mission and looked at the architect on the screen gloomily: "It's a waste of time. If he had left the hotel a few minutes later and bumped into us, I would have sent him to meet Ed.
McCann is reunited."
When Vodka heard about this guy who ruined their plan, he also had a bad expression: "This is the address registered by Kanazawa at the Vehicle Administration - before he sees more, let's go there quickly."
——There are still a few hours until dawn. At this time, Wuzuo should be resting in the hotel with his classmates... He must seize the time to complete the task before the kid starts moving, and then fly away and leave this land of right and wrong.
land.
With this thought in mind, Vodka dragged Calvados out of the house with an efficiency that surprised him, and went straight to Kanazawa Ryuichiro's residence.
…
An hour later, looking at the empty room, the two of them looked disappointed.
——The builder is not at home!
And judging from various signs, he did not go out just to steal the laptop, but had been away from home for at least a day.
"This guy..." Vodka was sizzling with murderous intent. While he wanted to pack up this bastard architect and leave it to Uzo to ravage for hundreds of years, he could only take out his laptop and continue to investigate where this person might go.
place.
——Time is life, he must solve this annoying task as soon as possible and part ways with Calvados as soon as possible.
"Although there is no evidence, I am 100% sure that the guy next to me has been targeted by Uzo."
While Vodka was typing on the keyboard, he quietly glanced at the unfortunate guy beside him with his peripheral vision:
"And it's not an ordinary stare, it's the kind of stare with strong interest - Uzo has actually started writing a composition for him... Tsk, I have to wear a bulletproof vest these days, and I'd better put on my hat again.
He secretly stuffed a steel plate inside to prevent the bullets flying towards him from 'accidentally' hitting me."
…
"Ryuichiro Kanazawa, an internationally renowned architect, whose representative works include...Wow, these houses are so beautiful!"
On the way to the Sunflower Hotel, Mao Lilan looked through the designer's encyclopedia, touched her signature book, and felt a little nervous: "I don't know if he is easy to talk to."
Hattori Heiji waved his hands indifferently: "We are here to do a commission, you don't care if he talks nicely or not - if you really want to sign, wait for the commission to end, ask Jiang Xia to tear off the signature on the power of attorney and paste it into your notebook.
That’s it?”
Yuan Shan and Ye Bang knocked him on the head: "What kind of outlaw behavior are you doing! How can Jiang Xia file the entrustment after tearing up the signature?"
Jiang Xia: "..." What? Do you need to archive the commissions you picked up outside? The boss didn't say that...
Anyway, Boss Amuro is not a serious detective, so he should not care about this detail. Jiang Xia pretended not to hear anything and continued to look at the scenery outside.
There was a rain today, but luckily, by the time they arrived at the Sunflower Hotel, the rain had stopped.
"The weather is so nice!" A group of people got out of the car. Suzuki Sonoko stretched out comfortably and looked at the neatly manicured yard in front of her.
Someone happened to be passing by the parking lot carrying a box. When he saw the guests suddenly appearing, he locked eyes with one of them and said hello: "Mr. Jiang Xia?"
A group of high school students turned around following the sound and saw a middle-aged man with shaggy hair and a goatee.
Mao Lilan looked at the face she had just seen on the encyclopedia, hugged her signature book, and blurted out with some excitement: "Mr. Kanazawa!"
"Oh? Do you know me?" Kanazawa Ryuichiro laughed, looked at Jiang Xia again, stretched out his hand to shake his hand, "I've been waiting for you for a long time. I happened to be looking for a detective recently, and I saw you on the news——
This is truly a wonderful fate.”
"We also saw you on the news." Yuan Shan and Ye poked their heads from the side and asked curiously, "I heard that you recently won a new award? Yes, um..." The name of the award was too long, and she had just opened it.
I completely forgot about my size.
At this time, a strange voice came from the side, and then she said: "Shanghai Modern Art Museum International Design Competition."
Jiang Xia turned around and saw two young men, one tall and one short, carrying boxes.
Kanazawa Ryuichiro glanced at them and introduced Jiang Xia: "These two are my students, Lin Tian and Yusen."
"Hello!" The big, dark-skinned apprentice greeted the high school students cheerfully, "My name is Hayashida Makoto, just call me Hayashida."
Another short apprentice was slightly introverted. He pushed up his glasses and barely said hello: "I am Masaya Yumori."
Introductions are often mutual. After the two students finished speaking, Kanazawa Ryuichiro raised his hand to signal Jiang Xia to them with a hint of showoff: "Do you know him? - This is Jiang Xia, the famous Tokyo detective."
The two students were stunned and quickly said hello.
Next to him, Hattori Heiji quietly rolled his eyes: An Osaka man didn't go to the Osaka detective, but went to the Tokyo detective. How embarrassing for Osaka!
but……
Hattori Heiji touched his chin and looked at the three strangers in front of him in confusion.
——I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but I always felt that when Kanazawa Ryuichiro introduced Jiang Xia to the two students, his tone seemed to have a hint of... oppression and threat?
…
After a brief greeting, Kanazawa Ryuichiro led everyone to his office on the top floor.
After closing the door and pouring a cup of tea, he asked Jiang Xia to sit down and said to the famous detective: "To be honest, I recently encountered a stalker."
As he spoke, he took out a brown paper bag and poured out the photos inside.
Photos are scattered on the table, each one taken from a different angle. The protagonist of all the photos is the internationally famous architect in front of him.
Kanazawa Ryuichiro looked at these photos and sighed: "I have received something like this every week since three months ago."
