After eating, Jiang Xia helped Hui Yuan Ai take the dishes back to the kitchen.
Haihara Ai quickly glanced back at the living room and saw that Conan and the doctor were holding skateboards and running to the laboratory for debugging.
She then took the opportunity to ask Jiang Xia softly: "Is the matter over?"
...Although Jiang Xia didn't go into too many details just now, the more Haibara Ai listened, the more she felt that "Teacher Ogata" looked particularly like Bermod.
Jiang Xia turned on the faucet, thought for a moment, and told her amidst the sound of water flowing: "It's just the beginning."
Hui Yuan Ai's expression changed slightly.
Miyano Akemi floated over, lay on top of her sister's head, touched her head, and sighed sadly. Living people have so many worries.
"Don't be too nervous, it will be fine in a few days." Jiang Xia felt that once Piske, who had seen Hui Yuan Ai's appearance when he was a child, was silenced by Gin, Hui Yuan Ai would be able to go out for fun.
As for Belmod... In the afternoon, before Jiang Xia came back, he stopped by the school and got some news.
——Teacher Ogata recently won the lottery and suddenly became rich. He planned to resign and go to the United States to further his studies. Didan Middle School received several resumes for English teacher applicants, including an American named "Judy Stylin".
I want to be a foreign teacher.
If I remember correctly, Judy was one of the FBI members who came to the island country after Belmode.
As long as he reveals some news about Bermod to Judy in the future, it will be good to balance the two sides so that Bermod can't devote too much energy to doing things.
When Hui Yuan Ai heard what Jiang Xia said, he nodded, and the panic in his eyes dissipated a little.
I don’t know why, but Jiang Xia is always very reliable in intelligence and seems to always be able to get some inside information. What is he doing now...
Hui Yuan Ai shook his head and did not dare to think any more. Since Jiang Xia said that he was only a peripheral member now, it was best to follow his wishes and not deliberately dig out anything.
In short, Jiang Xia said there is no need to be nervous, so as long as she stays at home for a few more days, there shouldn't be too many problems.
This was actually not a bad idea, as she could skip school confidently - although the children were lively and cute, being overwhelmed by a whole class of children every day made Haiyuan Ai feel a little tired, so she just took advantage of this time to stay at home and take a rest.
Hui Yuan Ai quickly found an excuse to skip school. She took the dishes from Jiang Xia's hand and immersed herself in washing them.
…
In the days waiting for the memorial service to begin, Jiang Xia was a little worried that if a commission came from out of town at this time, he should ignore Gin's request to "stay in Tokyo recently" and sneak out to pick up ghosts, or should he concentrate on staying in Tokyo and wait patiently for unpacking?
Pisk.
However, it turns out that he thought too much.
For such a long time, Jiang Xia has not even encountered a murder case that happened in Tokyo, let alone a letter of entrustment from other places.
On the other hand, Kaitou Kidd has been active a little more frequently, and has sent out two notice letters. Jiang Xia went out in his vest in the middle of the night, and picked up two energy cores, finally gaining something.
The day before the memorial service, Jiang Xia received an email from Ginjiu.
He went out, sat in a familiar sushi restaurant, and heard from Gin the plan for the day of the assassination.
The plan was actually relatively simple - at Director Shimonaki's banquet, there was a link to show a slide show.
At that time, the lights in the hall will be turned off, and the place far away from the slide projector will be dark. At that time, as long as Congressman Tunkou, who threatens to assassinate, stands under the chandelier, Pisk will use a gun equipped with a Kexue silencer to interrupt Tu.
If you swallow the fluorescent paint chandelier chain, your head will be smashed by the falling chandelier and you will die in an "accident".
Even if the police have suspicions, they will be constrained at every turn at a banquet where celebrities gather, making it difficult for them to investigate. In the end, they can only close the case as an "accident."
Of course, in order to achieve this goal as smoothly as possible, Gin spent more time on "reminding Uzo not to
"Hunting innocent lambs at a banquet without permission".
——If another person is suddenly murdered at the banquet venue, the police will undoubtedly stay longer at the venue and inspect the scene more carefully.
Once the suspicion of the death of the congressman is discovered, the police can more legitimately detain the guests attending the banquet and find the murderer of the congressman Tunkou... That would be troublesome.
…
Jiang Xia didn't know much about the frequency of crimes in this world, so he didn't feel confident enough to agree to Gin's request.
If an accident does happen by then...then we can only insist that it was a pure accident and had nothing to do with Uzo.
During the exchange, Jiang Xia did not see Pisk, who was responsible for the action. It was probably because Ginjiu deliberately missed the time for the two to meet.
Jiang Xia was slightly disappointed not to be able to see the blind box in advance.
Fortunately, the day for the memorial service is coming soon.
…
On the evening of the day of the memorial service, Jiang Xia put on black formal clothes and went to the Abedo City Hotel mentioned in the invitation.
He showed the invitation letter at the door of the banquet hall, registered his name, and received a souvenir before entering the banquet hall.
It was a picture album with good paper quality. It contained an introduction to Director Shigemaki's life and masterpieces. In addition, the registration staff also placed a folded purple handkerchief in the book. The handkerchief was made of exquisite materials and had fine texture. On the upper left
The words "Memorial Meeting of Director Sakenomaki" are embroidered on the corner.
Purple……
Jiang Xia collected the souvenirs and entered the banquet hall. He glanced at the souvenir handkerchiefs that others had received and found that they were all one of the seven colors of the rainbow - this was to correspond to the masterpiece "Rainbow Colored Handkerchief" by director Sake Maki.
Among them, purple handkerchiefs are relatively rare.
Jiang Xia flipped through the spoiler library in her mind and remembered that the organizer planned to arrange for guests holding handkerchiefs of specific colors to deliver speeches at the memorial service at the end of the banquet.
In the original plot line, Pisk and Belmode, who came to attend the banquet, both received purple handkerchiefs... Do members of the organization have the characteristic of being given purple handkerchiefs 100%?
Jiang Xia put away the handkerchief and looked around the banquet hall.
It was still some time before the memorial service started, but Pisk had already arrived in advance and was standing in a less conspicuous place looking up at the chandelier to consolidate his footing.
Belmode did not appear.
Jiang Xia looked at the ghosts around him and found that they were all staring at Pisk, who had a murderous aura about him.
He immediately knew that Belmode had not come, nor had he come in disguise, and that he was not nearby at all. Although the murderous aura in Pisk was strong, it was only slightly higher than the quality of ordinary murderous aura. If there was a high-end one like Belmode,
The murderous aura is lingering around, and the ghosts will not react this way.
