After Vodka made the suggestion, he took a peek at Gin and found that Gin didn't answer and seemed to have little interest in the plan. He sighed inwardly.
But he quickly thought, since the eldest brother didn't directly drop a comment like "stupid", it means that this plan has not been directly rejected... There is a chance, maybe there is a chance!
Even if their firearms are often sent for maintenance, the probability of misfire is very low, but this can at least add trouble to Uzo - no one likes to be taken hostage suddenly, let alone Uzo when he is disobedient.
In the second year of middle school, if Gin decided to implement this plan, but Uzo refused him...
Hey hey hey.
Thinking of Uzo's rating in the big brother's heart, which was about to plummet, Vodka felt very good.
…
Vodka is a qualified mind-reading machine.
On the way back to Cupido Town, Gin was really thinking about and elaborating his proposal.
From Gin's point of view, vodka is sometimes incredibly stupid, but occasionally, when a flash of inspiration occurs, it can also come up with a valuable plan.
Gin thought of Usa's usually cold attitude towards the Miyano sisters and felt that he would definitely cooperate with his plan.
However, having hostages means having corresponding villains.
But now, apart from Uzo, the only member present at the memorial service is Pisk, and Pisk has other important tasks.
If a few members are temporarily transferred there, with the moral integrity of the subordinates, once their guns go off, they will pretend to kill Uzo for real... Tsk, as expected, it is better to wait for him and Vodka to arrive before carefully implementing this plan.
Bar.
Gin assessed the road conditions and realized that there was still some time before arriving at the scene.
So he thought about it and edited an email to Jiang Xia:
[Shirley may be present. If she tries to contact you, find an opportunity to bring her to me. You should be able to recognize her. If the situation is inconvenient, shoot her on the spot]
After typing and just about to send it out, Gin's fingers suddenly paused and stopped again.
After a few seconds, he deleted the typed words and address, and entered Pisk's email address in the recipient field.
...Uzo has always been very active when dealing with certain killing missions, and the content of this mission happens to include "killing Shirley".
In other words, even if he asked Uzo to wait quietly for Shirley to contact him, he would probably not listen to the advice and take the initiative to attack, just like how he took the initiative to harm passers-by when he had nothing to do before...
And if Shirley wants to contact Uzo, she will definitely observe carefully in advance. If Uzo happens to be looking for her at that time and she senses something unusual, she will alert the snake. After all, it is true that Shirley is kind and nosy, and she is timid.
It's true that you are careful, you might be scared away at the slightest sign of trouble.
Therefore, this observation task should be left to Pisk.
It is clear to onlookers that some places may be blind spots in Uzo's sight, but Pisk can see them standing nearby, and it will not attract too much attention. This kind of additional task of observing only with eyes will not affect Pisk's original purpose.
tasks have too many impacts.
With this in mind, Gin sent Pisk an email:
[There is a high school detective named Jiang Xia at the memorial service. Shirley may try to contact him, or hide nearby and observe him. You can use this to find Shirley.
After finding her, send me the detailed location. If she has disguised herself, send her current characteristics as well.]... Then he forwarded it to Uzo, asking Uzo to rush to arrest Shirley before she could react.
In this way, the two bottles of wine in the venue each do their own thing, with a clear division of labor and will not delay each other.
Although this email may lead to Pisk discovering Uzo's identity.
However, keeping the identity of "Uzo" secret is not a hard and fast rule. It is just a suggestion to prevent pig teammates from holding back. It comes from Gin's rich experience.
Now that the incident happened suddenly, compared to this privately stipulated "confidentiality", catching Shirley was of course a higher priority.
Moreover, Pisk is an old man of the organization and has a strict mouth, so it doesn't matter if he finds out. Besides, he may not be able to find out that Uzo really looks like a good person...
…
Cupido City Hotel.
In the banquet hall, Pisk was talking in a low voice with the chairman of the Foreign Trade Association.
Halfway through, I suddenly felt the phone in my pocket vibrate.
He ended the conversation calmly and walked to the side to check his cell phone.
The content in the mailbox made him slightly startled. High school detective?
Pisk quickly thought of the young man who was wandering around the place handing out business cards.
He glanced at Jiang Xia from the corner of his eye, with some doubts hidden in his old eyes. Is this detective secretly colluding with Shirley? Why did Shirley contact him?
Speaking of which, the two people are not much different in age. The defecting organization member and the righteous detective have exactly opposite positions...
These two characteristics reminded Pisk of a novel he accidentally read in Vodka: What about a male high school student who went out to pick up a beautiful villain who fell from the sky, and then the two began to live together in a noisy way.
of.
...Does this kind of thing actually happen in reality?
The 71-year-old Pisk took a sip of his wine, shaking his head and cursing in his mind. Shameless young people really dare to pick up anything.
Having said that, since Jiang Xia has contact with Shirley, she must not let them go easily.
Gin was so careless that he forgot to arrange the treatment of this person... Was he too excited to finally catch the escaped Shirley, or did he hand over the task of dealing with Jiang Xia to other members? Pisk remembered that Gin had said,
There are people on the field who will look at the situation and respond accordingly.
However, after thinking about it, he still felt that it would be safer to ask more questions about such a crucial question.
Pisk replied: [What does the detective do]
Half a minute later, a new email from Gin came into the mailbox:
[Don’t provoke him, just pay more attention to Shirley]
Pisk: "...?"
The word "provoke" always feels a little subtle. It's like in Gin's eyes, compared with the high school student who has no hair, he, a senior member of the organization, is the weaker party... Is this detective really that powerful?
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content!...
Jiang Xia was still looking at Pisk, admiring the murderous aura in him.
But soon, he discovered that Piske began to observe him covertly in turn - after checking his cell phone once.
Jiang Xia stopped looking over there, feeling a little confused.
Pisk shouldn't have suddenly noticed this mediocre detective - even when he accepted the business card just now, there was a vague dislike for the detective, and he didn't want to look at him again, but now his attitude suddenly changed... Pisk
What news did Scott receive?
Just as he was thinking about it, the mermaid who was floating next to Pisk and playing murderous intent swam back to Jiang Xia, poked him, and secretly told Jiang Xia the content of the email she had just snooped on.
Jiang Xia was thoughtful.
Catch Shirley?
Did Haihara Ai sneak into the venue?
Jiang Xia was a little surprised for a moment - someone as timid as Haiyuan Ai came running over, can Conan be far behind?
Blind boxes are promising.
Speaking of which, Haibara Ai was present, but Miyano Akemi was unaware of it just now. She was still staring at Pisk's murderous intent... The ability to sense her sister is much lower than the ability to sense murderous intent. Jiang Xia secretly
Condemn the sisterhood that is not strong enough.
After reprimanding him, he asked the foggy dog to fly a little higher to look for any children who had sneaked in without permission.
Not long after, he used the foggy dog's perspective to see the two children seeking death on the other side of the crowd.
Although I don’t know what happened, judging from the presence of the two of them and the fact that Gin knew that Shirley would be there, things probably developed like in the original world line...
Even if Hui Yuan Ai stays at home every day, he will still run to the scene at such a critical moment. This is actually a path Jiang Xia never imagined.
But speaking honestly, for him, this kind of scene is actually quite good.
——When Gin heard that Shirley was present, he must have been full of murderous intent. When he picked up his gun and rushed over in the cold wind and snow, he found that Shirley had run away, and his murderous intent was probably going to increase sharply...Jiang Xia
As I was thinking about it, I couldn't help but touch the ghost mint in my pocket.
This would indeed pick up a lot more murderous energy, but since the plan had changed, he had to make some other preparations.
Thinking like this, Jiang Xia found a dimly lit corner and leaned against the wall.
Shikigami and ghosts squirmed through the walls, and in the deserted corridor, they piled up and grew into slender puppets.
A minute later, Anonymous straightened his skirt, lowered the brim of his hat, and left quickly.
…
Jiang Xia hung up for a while.
After everything was dealt with, his consciousness returned to his original body, and when he looked around the hall again, he saw the door of the banquet hall opened again, and several police officers silently walked into the hall and blended into the crowd.
Ten minutes ago, the Megure Police Department received a call from Kudo Shinichi.
Brother Kudo told him that someone wanted to assassinate Senator Tunkou at the memorial service. When Gin called Pisk for the first time, he had not yet discovered the existence of the bug. His words revealed some information, and Conan used this
, and speculated on the organization’s assassination target.
…
Jiang Xia observed silently.
Then before the police saw him, he picked up the wine glass at hand, drank two sips of wine quickly and silently, and secretly sprinkled some on his clothes to make himself smell of wine.
——With the ability of the Mu Mu Police Department to randomly grab people with crime-solving tools, sooner or later he will find Jiang Xia at the scene, and then come over and ask, "What do you think?"
If Jiang Xia delays solving the case and doesn't provide any clues, it will seem a little abnormal.
But if the case is solved... After all, Pisk is also a veteran member. He can be silenced by the organization because of his mistakes, but he should not die in order to pave the way for new members to get results. Since the organization's salary and murderous intent are mixed, there still needs to be some superficiality.
Same thing.
So I had to find an excuse not to solve the case.
There are no car accidents, no explosions, and no fires here, which is inconsistent with the false "weakening buff" Jiang Xia released before.
But fortunately, there is wine here.
...just pretend to be drunk and get through.
…
As expected, after the Mumu Police Department assigned inspection areas to the subordinates who had sneaked into the venue, they turned around and took two steps when their eyes fell on Jiang Xia.
A little surprise appeared on his face, and he moved his slightly bulky body through the crowd and walked towards Jiang Xia.
The place where Jiang Xia stood was very inconspicuous. Fortunately, there were occasionally glamorous rich ladies around him who would glance in his direction. The police department instinctively felt that there might be something wrong with the people noticed by several people. Unexpectedly, they followed their lead.
When he looked around, he found Jiang Xia.
... With Jiang Xia here, after explaining the situation to him, with his powers of observation, he might be able to find the potential criminal soon.
As the Mumu Police Department approached, they found Jiang Xia staring at the table, seemingly distracted.
It wasn't until he leaned over and patted his shoulder that Jiang Xia raised his head belatedly.
"Police department?" After seeing the person clearly, Jiang Xia was startled at first, and then asked in a low voice with slight surprise, "Are you coming to the memorial service too? You don't have to work overtime today?"
"..." The Mumu Police Department was suddenly mentioned about the sad thing of working overtime, and paused sadly for a second.
After he recovered, he was about to explain, but suddenly he said "huh?" and felt something was wrong: "Why do you smell like alcohol? You are not old enough to drink."
Jiang Xia paused inconspicuously.
After a while, he slowly put the wine glass on the table behind him, moved his steps to block it, and explained in a subtle way: "I didn't know it was wine just now."
Mumu Police Department: "..."
It seemed that he not only drank illegally, but also drank a lot. He lied in such an unskilled manner. No wonder when he came here just now, he felt that Jiang Xia's reaction was slower than usual, and he didn't even notice anyone approaching.
Can the case be solved in this state... The Mumu police department is in a dilemma, hesitating between telling Jiang Xia the details of the case and giving him an ideological education first.
Before the entanglement could come to a conclusion, the host's voice sounded faintly in the background from the other end of the hall: "...Next we will show the slides collected by Director Shigemaki during his lifetime, please enjoy -"
As soon as he finished speaking, the staff who had been prepared turned off the switch.
The lights suddenly went out.
The hall fell into darkness, with only a glimmer of light coming from the slide projector at the front of the banquet hall. Light that did not exist for the purpose of lighting could not penetrate the banquet hall, and most of the place was dark and invisible to the human eye.
.
Under the round table in the banquet hall, as Jiang Xia's consciousness possessed him, the anonymous puppet that had been waiting for a short while opened its eyes, lifted the tablecloth, and came out silently.
The puppet has inherited the night vision ability of the ghost fetus, and can see its surroundings clearly even in the dark.
It held up the hem of its skirt, its eyes moved slightly, and its eyes quickly fell on a few cameras - long before turning off the lights, Jiang Xia had already kept an eye on several cameras that could be easily "borrowed".
However, perhaps because Conan and Haibara Ai arrived, things went much smoother than Jiang Xia expected.
—— Before Anonymous could choose a lucky reporter to borrow the camera, he saw a man and a woman hugging each other in the dark and kissing passionately, slightly in front.
Next to them, a smart reporter heard something wrong, his ears twitched, and he raised the camera in his hand.
At this time, Councilor Tunkou had already followed the instructions in confusion and arrived under the chandelier.
In the background of the two cheaters, Pisk pointed at the chandelier and raised the gun equipped with a silencer.
